Chapter 104: Cavalry Siege (2)

Zhang Fei's fight will greatly increase the morale of the army, the sluggishness among the soldiers was swept away, the Hun cavalry because of the pursuit of Zhang Fei, so too close to the city wall, Zhang Xiang ordered to release the arrows, this time the Huns were killed and wounded.

The effect of this round of arrow rain is on top of the arrow rain in front, and it is not too embarrassing to finally pull back a layer, and it also makes the sergeant understand that the Huns are also people, and they will still die if they go down with an arrow, so there is no need to be afraid.

The Huns did not prepare siege tools due to the long-distance attack, so they could only use cavalry to shoot back, Zhang Xiang did not want to touch this brow, so that the soldiers had been hiding behind the city wall, as long as the Huns did not attack the city, they were not allowed to counterattack and let everything go.

At this time, the county town was like meat in a pot in the eyes of the Huns, very hot and nowhere to eat, Zhang Xiang was not afraid of others saying that he was a turtle with a shrunken head, as long as he ensured the safety of the soldiers below, he could do anything.

Not to mention just a few words? The Huns were also forced to stop attacking the city, after all, the siege is now in vain, and arrows are wasted, and the Huns lack resources, and every arrow is precious.

Naturally, he didn't want to waste it in vain, Zhang Xiang was a deaf and blind man for a day, and finally let the Huns retreat, although Zhang Xiang knew that this was only temporary, but he was also relieved.

After all, this kind of dispatch is really a nest, so Zhang Xiang attaches more importance to cavalry, as long as there is an elite cavalry under his command, why is he like this today? Those who were beaten by the Huns couldn't raise their heads.

However, Zhang Xiang was not without success, at least Zhang Xiang got a lot of arrows on the city wall, in fact, the Huns later used cavalry to shoot a few rounds of throwing, which really caused some damage to the soldiers of Xiangfei's army.

In the end, Zhang Xiang had to adjust all the shield planks to the top of the city, and when the Huns retreated, there were many scattered arrows on the head of the city and the plank, and Zhang Xiang found that only some of these arrows were iron arrows.

Most of them are bone arrows, and it is embarrassing for Zhang Xiang to be pressed by such arrows at the head of the city, but there is no way, the ordinary soldiers in the army are not wearing armor, and they can't stop such arrows at all.

can only let the Huns show their might below, Zhang Xiang knows that this first day is still very easy to get through, but tomorrow is the real big battle, and I don't know how many people will die and how many people will survive.

However, although Zhang Xiang is now at a disadvantage, Zhang Xiang believes that he will definitely defeat the Huns, when the Huns are brutal and do not occupy the sky, the Xiangfei army holds the city condescendingly and occupies the advantage, and the county is the territory of the Han people.

The next day, the Huns arrived at the city again, obviously frightened by Zhang Fei, and did not propose to fight the generals but chose to attack the city directly.

The Huns could use the ladder to attack the city wall, which was the most basic part of the Han siege equipment, and of course it was the most commonly used, but it was indeed not so powerful.

But in the hands of the Huns, it seems to have changed its appearance, and it is extremely attacking, of course, this threat does not come from the Huns who attacked from the ladder, but from the Hun archers under the city.

The Xiangfei army wanted to defend against the enemy attacked by the ladder, so it naturally had to come out, but this attack became a live target for the Huns, who had lived and grazed and hunted on the grassland since childhood.

Even the poorest tribe will let the clansmen have a bow and arrow, even if it is a stupid person, after years of archery, will become a mature archer, and the archers of the Xiongnu are all good hands in the Han army.

It is still a great threat to be stared at by such a group of archers, and the Xiangfei army was killed and wounded as a result, Zhang Xiang saw with his own eyes that the fatal wound of many soldiers was the throat, and he had to admire the accuracy of these Hun archers.

Zhang Xiang had no choice but to take out the oil and throw it down, the Huns could not attack the city through the ladder, and their casualties were much less, but Zhang Xiang knew that this was only a symptom but not a cure, and the oil would run out sooner or later.

This is just an expedient measure, saying that the fire oil of the Xiangfei army is all brought, where is there such a good thing in the county, so Zhang Xiang had to move a long object to the head of the city, leaning obliquely on the city wall, so as to limit the location of the Huns attacking the city.

However, the county town is too poor, there are not many such long objects, and the people of the county town also know what the consequences will be once the Huns break through the city wall, so they all do their best to help.

Zhang Xiang even saw the old man's coffin on the city wall, which had been split into several pieces and carried to the city, and Zhang Xiang reprimanded the soldiers for this.

After listening to the explanations of these soldiers, Zhang Xiang knew that they were to blame, it turned out that this coffin was not split by them, but was personally sent by an old man, and the people in the county sent everything that Zhang Xiang could use to the city.

Many men in the county town have asked for battle, Zhang Xiang has not reached the point of exhaustion for the time being, naturally he will not let these people help defend the city, and he can't ignore them, otherwise it will chill the hearts of these men.

Therefore, Zhang Xiang ordered these men to watch all the Hu people in the city, and not let them come out to make trouble, and these men also received orders one after another, so that there were really some soldiers.

The influence of regional life, and the people of Bingzhou are indeed natural warriors, as long as they have a little training, they will become elite soldiers, and Zhang Xiang will have a steady stream of soldiers as long as he survives this hurdle.

Although the bitterness is a little bitter, but don't taste the hardship of the present, and the sweetness of the future? Zhang Xiang's method still has some effect, and the soldiers don't have to care too much about the archers.

Just take a glance to see that there are enemies coming up to attack the ladder, there are a lot of Xiangfei soldiers stationed behind each gap, fortunately the Huns do not know how to attack the city, otherwise there is a siege of three missing one, Zhang Xiang can no longer find so many long objects in the county.

If the Huns really did this, Zhang Xiang might have demolished the beams of the house, then Zhang Xiang's efforts to work in person a few days ago would be in vain, and the Huns would have become a tactic of adding fuel and coming up to die.

Even so, there were still many casualties in the Xiangfei army, Zhang Xiang took a look at it, and the casualties on his side and the Huns' side reached one to one, which can be said to be a failure for the Xiangfei army defending the city.

The Huns are indeed brave, and they are not as unbearable as Zhang Xiang thought when attacking the city, although they are not tall but they are ruthless and dare to fight hard, which is the most missing part of the quality of Zhang Xiang's sergeant.

But fortunately, there are not many Huns who climbed to the head of the city, and there are a number of fierce generals to support it to maintain, and the next day has passed, the two sides can be said to have won and lost each other, and Zhang Xiang has nothing to say about defending the city to this part.

He did what he should do, and the rest can only see the moves, on the third day, the Huns did not attack the city and calmed down, there must be demons Zhang Xiang did not know what these Huns were going to do.

The Huns have been stopped for two days, these two days Zhang Xiang ate and lived on the city wall, is not afraid to sleep more for fear of encountering any sneak attack, these two days Zhang Xiang only saw a lot of sheep transported from the rear of the Huns, obviously ready to fight for a long time.

The Huns blatantly did this, there must be something behind it, otherwise they would not be so presumptuous on the territory of the Han people, it seems that someone wants to borrow a knife to kill people! Zhang Xiang really wants to know who this person is now.

However, looking at this situation, only after repelling this group of Huns, Zhang Xiang didn't believe that the Huns made such a big move, and this person who wanted to calculate himself did not leave any clues.

At that time, Zhang Xiang would never be soft, and on the fifth day, the Huns finally showed their back hands, and even caught a lot of Han people to be shields, and the Xiangfei army was very angry from top to bottom.

I can't wait to rush out of the city gate to fight to the death with the Huns, Zhang Xiang also has such thoughts, but he thinks more than the soldiers, the Huns seem to be very inferior, but it is indeed very effective.

Zhang Xiang's reason told him that he must not go out of the city, otherwise he would fall into the strategy of the Huns, Zhang Xiang believed that the Huns outside the city would like to do it themselves?

This method of siege is a big problem for any commander, so this method of warfare was widely used by the Hu people in the future Wuhu Rebellion, but it was very effective.

The phrase "one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither" is the best reflection at this time, many famous generals will choose to shoot, in the eyes of famous generals, these Han people have become enemies, and there is no need to be soft.

But Zhang Xiang is not a famous general, he has not been trained to be as hard-hearted as them, and he still has a little hidden heart, but this villain is still Zhang Xiang who wants to do it first, Zhang Xiang is the first to release the arrow, and he shouts to lie down.

Zhang Xiang knew that the Huns would never lie down, and he also hoped that the Han people below would have people who understood their own thoughts, and the soldiers of the Xiangfei Army saw Zhang Xiang shooting arrows, and also followed the arrows, but the density of the arrow rain was much less.

Zhang Xiang kept shouting to lie down, and the soldiers also shouted, and finally all the soldiers also shouted, and the Han people below were killed and injured a lot, and finally many Han people chose to lie down, so the Huns who were mixed in it also leaked out, at this time Zhang Xiang shouted, "Shoot the people who are standing." ”

Lu Split's eyesight and archery skills are the best in the army, he did not hesitate at all, every time he released an arrow, a Hun fell, there was no accidental injury, but the soldiers in the army could not do Lu Split, it was inevitable that there would be accidental injuries, but compared with before, the casualties of the Han people in the city were much less.

Yang Xu watched Zhang Xiang's performance but shook his head, he knew that this method could only be used once, what choice would Zhang Xiang make next time? Yang Xu knew that the Han people under the city would eventually die at the hands of Xiang Feijun.

What's the use of doing these things? can only let the Han people in the city live a little longer, Yang Xu also discovered Zhang Xiang's weakness, that is, his heart is not ruthless enough, and the facts prove Yang Xu's conjecture.
