Chapter 258: Entering the City in Danger
"Here it is, the real war begins. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Wu Laohan's hand holding the hilt of the knife trembled slightly, and when he heard a large number of shouts and killings erupting in front of the Beicheng Tower, he knew that the new guard army had begun to attack, and according to the established deployment of tactics, the next step was for the critical army to launch a feint to contain the defenders.
"Draw your sword!" In Wu Laohan's team, several white horse Yicong who took the lead raised their long swords and shouted loudly, and suddenly everyone in the queue pulled out their waist knives, and sonorous sounds sounded one after another.
"Raise your shield." Another order came, and Wu Laohan hurriedly followed the steps of the drill, holding the rattan shield in his hand diagonally and connecting it with the person in front of him.
"Fish Scale Formation, forward." Zhao Yun led more than a dozen white horses from the battlefield to convey the order of attack to every infantry army formation that was lined up.
Wu Laohan gasped slightly, with both fear and excitement in his heart. The phalanx you are in does not need to take on the duty of a long echelon, nor does you need to hold a bow and crossbow to shoot at the enemy soldiers on the city wall, you only need to hold a shield close to the city wall, line up, wait for your companions to set up a long ladder, and then climb.
The rain of arrows struck, and the shield he was holding was shot back and forth twice, Wu Laohan looked up slightly at the shield raised, although the arrow of one of the arrows shot through the shield, but the arrow was stuck in the opening, fortunately did not cut the arm, which made Wu Laohan understand that as long as he did not move, he would hardly be injured.
There was a loud bang, and Wu Laohan felt a puff of smoke and dust rise from the direction of the city gate.
"Did something happen?" Wu Laohan suddenly thought suspiciously.
"It's a big cow, the big cow in Xujiawan smashed open the city gate."
"Amazing, this kid usually looks so honest, but he didn't expect to be so powerful on the battlefield, and he was the first to run over and smash the door."
Wu Laohan's shield phalanx was closest to the city gate, so he could see what was happening at the city gate most clearly, and all the soldiers exclaimed in surprise.
"Let's rush in with the bull."
"We can't let the other armies under the Destiny Commanded underestimate us."
"Yes, rush."
The crowd abandoned their preparations for the ladder and began to leave the shield phalanx and rush towards the city gates.
Wu Laohan's vision suddenly emptied, and at this time, he had to run with everyone so as not to become the target of the archers on the city wall, so Wu Laohan also rushed over.
The moment the shield phalanx was lifted, there were several screams, arrows hit the city wall, and several soldiers immediately fell to the ground with arrows in their bodies, and the people around them hurriedly stopped when they saw this, and raised their shields to cover the vital points of the wounded soldiers. Suddenly there was a small chaos in front of the city gate, some people wanted to step forward, some people wanted to retreat.
"All against the wall, all against the wall." Wu Laohan remembered the war experience that Bai Ma Yicong had told them during the exercise, and immediately shouted loudly to his companions, Jinchuan City has no war preparations, it can only be suppressed by arrows, and there is no rolling stone and wood, so at this time, as long as you rush to the city wall and raise your shield, the enemy army will be helpless.
At this moment, the crossbowmen of the Danger Army were making the same suppressive shooting move towards the castle tower, and the white horse Yoshitsu who was cruising on the battlefield was also shooting arrows non-stop, killing the Sanhan archers on the city wall.
Holding his shield diagonally, Wu Laohan ran to the vicinity of a wounded soldier who had been hit by an arrow, dragged the opponent's arm and rushed under the city wall, and the next moment, the arrow was shot at the place where they stayed.
"Old Wu, thank you." The soldier who was hit by the arrow gasped, and after coming to the city wall, he covered the wound on his leg and said weakly.
Wu Laohan helped the other party adjust his position, and then comforted: "Lao Zhang, what are you talking about, everyone is a neighbor, don't move, just hold the shield like this, your mother-in-law is still waiting for you to go back." ”
"Thanks to you this time, I'll definitely invite you to drink when I get back." The middle-aged man surnamed Zhang squeezed out a smile and said to Wu Laohan.
"I have to rush in with the group, the military order is not allowed to retreat, no fear is allowed to move forward, after the battle is over quickly, someone will definitely come to save you." Wu Laohan walked a few steps, then turned around and said, "When you drink, don't mind if I bring my son with you." ”
"Haha, don't mind." After the middle-aged man surnamed Zhang heard Wu Laohan say this, he suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart, as if the battle was about to end.
The city gate was caught in a burst of weapons at this moment, and a tall strong man with a short-handled axe cut the rudimentary city gate, but behind the city gate, there were nearly two hundred Sanhan defenders, and the two sides rushed together, and the scene was a little deadlocked.
Although the morale of the Sanhan defenders was low, but after taking over with the dangerous army that had entered the city, they found that this group of people had an unfamiliar fighting style, and it seemed that it was the first time to go to the battlefield.
Xu Daniu was hit by an arrow in his shoulder, his forehead was sweating, and his arm was also opened by a Sanhan soldier, but he still insisted on standing at the front to fight, relying on a brute force, and rushed out of a road with a shield.
"Big bull, watch your back." Wu Laohan followed everyone into the city, looked around vigilantly, and then found that the archers on the city tower who were originally aiming at shooting outside the city, more than a dozen people were holding bows and arrows aimed at the Yanzhou city soldiers who broke into the city, and Xu Daniu, who was the most active in the battle, soon became their target.
"Ahh Although the reaction was very timely, Xu Daniu was still hit by two arrows in the back, and he screamed out in embarrassment, fortunately he didn't hurt the vital point, but in this way, his movements became sluggish.
"Am I going to die?" Xu Da Niu took a few steps back, wanting to alternately raise his shield with his companions to cover and dodge the arrows, but the archers on the city tower opened their bows and arrows again, and collectively aimed at Xu Da Niu, as if they hated this Chinese man who had cut down the city gate, and they must shoot the other party to death.
"You hateful Samhans, robbers who loot the village, I will fight with you." Seeing this, Xu Daniu let go of his defense, slashed and killed the enemy soldiers in front of him, and the whole person pounced, thinking in his heart that only by rushing into the pile of enemy soldiers would the enemy archers have any scruples.
"General Zhao is here!" The atmosphere of stalemate at the city gate suddenly erupted into violent cheers, and outside the city, a large number of cavalry on white horses rushed in, throwing arrows from time to time, knocking the archers on the castle tower to the ground.
After some of the demobilized Xu Daniu was knocked to the ground by the enemy soldiers, and was about to roll up, he heard his companions behind him shouting to give way.
Picking up the short-handled axe and walking to the side, Xu Daniu felt that the enemy soldiers were actually a little frightened, and many people had already begun to turn around and prepare to escape.
A sharp sound like birdsong sounded, and several Sanhan soldiers standing opposite Xu Daniu immediately fell to the ground with arrows.
"The enemy army has actually broken up." Wu Laohan looked at the three Han soldiers who began to flee in surprise, he didn't expect it to be so difficult to deal with the enemy army, and he lost all his courage directly after Zhao Yun arrived.
The silver spear and white horse, the sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and the slightly murderous face made every soldier standing on both sides of the danger can't help but straighten their bodies.
"Who opened the gates?" Zhao Yun ignored the scattered Sanhan soldiers, but looked at the people standing around him and asked calmly.
"It's me." Xu Daniu was refreshed for a while when he heard this, and stood up, looking at Zhao Yun's eyes with a hint of nervousness.
"What's your name?" Zhao Yun looked at Xu Daniu and asked.
Thinking of the training he had received in the army, Xu Daniu bowed to Zhao Yun and said: "Back to General Zhao, the villain's name is Xu Daniu, who used to be a woodcutter, and now serves as a commander in the army in danger. ”
"Very well done, I will report your exploits to the lord." After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he stopped looking at him, raised the silver spear and said, "The whole army, enter the city." ”
