Chapter 212: Sound from East to West
"Fuck, shit Chen Gongtai, are you crazy?"
Cao Peng picked up the river knife that was higher than him, and after cutting down a Xiapi soldier who rushed to the city, he couldn't help but scold.
One of the soldiers fell to the ground, and four or five more soldiers rushed up to the city.
Without waiting for Chu Ge to answer, Cao Peng had already dragged him away.
Two iron meteors flew out of their hands, bursting the brains of one of the lower soldiers. However, even if Cao Pengxuan was surrounded by other Xiapi soldiers, there was a fight between knives and guns. When Cao Peng wiped the neck of the last soldier with a knife, his face was sprayed with a thick layer of blood mist. At this time, when the sky was approaching, the setting sun was shining, and the entire city head of Quyang West City was shrouded in a blood-colored light.
"Retreat, they retreat!"
After killing the last Xiapi soldier who rushed to the head of the city, the soldiers at the head of the city cheered.
"Be careful!"
Cao Peng's voice did not fall, only listening to the creaking machines under the city, and dozens of stone throwing machines were launched at the same time. The stone with huge force flew up to the city, and the two soldiers who had no time to dodge were hit by the stone, and their flesh and blood were blurred, and they fell into a pool of blood and turned into dead corpses.
"Aren't they tired?"
Chu Ge gasped and hid under the battlement with Cao Peng.
Cao Peng put down the knife, tore off the strip of cloth in his hand, took out a clean strip of cloth from his arms, and wrapped it around his hand.
He uses this method to avoid slipping his hands. The ferocious killing had made him covered in blood. If this method is not used, it is likely that the knife will come out of hand. The strip of cloth that had been replaced, wet, heavy, soaked with blood...... Chu Ge did the same, and began to change the blood cloth on his hands.
He cursing while clasping his hands: "Damn Xiapi dog, it seems like crazy today, this is the first attack?" ”
"Eleventh!"
Cao Peng's expression was indifferent, he wrapped his hand around and grabbed the big knife.
"Archers, archers prepare......"
He stood up and saw a stone flying in front of him, which frightened him and quickly dodged.
With a bang, the stone hit the battlement, smashing half of the battlement. The dust carried a smoky smell of fire, which made Cao Peng cough violently. But at this time, he couldn't take much care of it, and hurriedly stepped forward, leaned against the battlement, and looked out of the city.
A song of soldiers and horses has been lined up under the city.
After the boulder is over, they will attack.
"Xiahou!"
"Whoa!"
"How's it going on over there in the East City?"
"The Xiapi army attacked very fiercely, and the news just now came that Yan Fa was injured, but the injury was not too serious."
Strict law is Deng Fan.
Xiahou Lan took a sip of bloodshot thick phlegm, "Wen Jue said, Dongcheng's current situation is fine, at least it can continue to persevere."
Childe, the casualties are too great, or send reinforcements?
Chen Gongtai seemed to want to succeed in a battle and attacked desperately. If this continues, I'm afraid we won't be able to last long. ”
Yes, Chen Gong seems to have made up his mind today!
Yesterday he suffered a big loss, and today he is attacking more than once. Moreover, the surname Cao did not appear, and it is estimated that he was sitting in the rear army. As a result, Gan Ning wants to surprise the aid, and it is estimated that it will be very difficult. But Chen Gong didn't think about it, if such an attack couldn't break the city, it would also be a blow to the morale of the Xiapi army? It seems that the gain outweighs the loss by paying so many soldiers' lives.
Cao Peng faintly felt that something was not right.
But just as he was groaning, three stones bombarded the city wall fiercely.
Bang!
There was a loud bang, and some soldiers hissed and shouted, "The city wall has collapsed, the city wall has collapsed......"
A city wall at the west gate, after being bombarded repeatedly, finally could not bear it and collapsed, and there was a gap in the strong city wall.
Under the city, the war drums of the Xiapi army roared, and the Xiapi soldiers came like a tide under the cover of strong bows and crossbows and stones.
Cao Peng couldn't think about the problem anymore, and dragged the knife to the gap.
"Xiahou, after you continue, the madman Chu will follow me to resist the enemy."
Chu Ge agreed, followed closely behind Cao Peng, and left in a hurry. Xia Houlan's face was solemn, and he hissed and roared: "Archer, throw!" ”
Airplanes...... A volley of arrows shot up into the sky and shot down the city.
Among the counties of the same level, Quyang can be regarded as a strong city.
The former Quyang Changwang Mo is also very concerned about the city defense, and it will be repaired every year. But Quyang is a small county town after all, and it is impossible to use any kind of blue brick and boulder to build it. Although the walls are high and thick, the main body is made of rammed earth. So after repeated attacks, the walls were finally overwhelmed and collapsed. Fortunately, Cao Peng had already made arrangements and piled up countless bags of mud and sand on the city.
"Fill in the gaps for me!"
Cao Peng rushed over and saw the huge gap that could accommodate a carriage in and out.
He hurriedly shouted loudly and ordered his soldiers to throw the sandbags and stakes down.
But when encountering the soldiers who broke the city, they were still a little flustered. So much so that when filling the gap, it was inevitable that his hands and feet would become weak, causing a group of soldiers to rush into the city. Cao Peng and Chu Ge immediately stepped forward with two personal soldiers, and the big knife was repeated, and in a short distance, they suddenly exerted force, cutting down a Xiapi soldier in a pool of blood. The two-day fight was undoubtedly a cruel and fruitful experience for Cao Peng.
In the martial arts of later generations, there are too many fancy things.
This makes many tricks flashy and the combat effectiveness is relatively weakened.
The ancients created martial arts, not for spectatorship, but to kill people...... Two days of desperate fighting, Cao Peng's knife skills were reborn. Many flashy showmanships are unknowingly discarded. When fighting, use the simplest and most effective method to kill.
This is the essence!
"Hugh has to ignore the dog and fill in the gap for me."
Two days of fighting made Cao Peng have unparalleled prestige in the soldiers.
The soldiers wanted to believe this young man who looked unfinished and childish. After he rushed up with Chugo, his morale was boosted. The speed of the stake and sandbag throwing suddenly increased, filling the gap in the blink of an eye. And more than a dozen Xiapi soldiers who rushed into the city were also under the command of Cao Peng and were quickly besieged and killed. When the last of the Xiapi soldiers who stormed into the city was killed, calm had been restored to the city.
!
Cao Peng couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.
He frowned, plucked a piece of intestine from the nail leaf, and discarded it casually.
That appearance caused Chu Ge and the other soldiers to laugh...... The haze caused by the collapse of the city wall seems to have been swept away. But Cao Peng's heart was extremely heavy.
If there is a first gap, there may be a second, third, or even an infinite number of gaps. At that time, will Quyang still be able to hold on?
Or should troops be redeployed?
In the face of Chen Gong's almost crazy attack, Cao Peng was a little shaken.
"Xiapi Dog is here again!"
Looking up, I saw more than a dozen fireballs roaring down from the sky, and a burning stone fell under the city gate not far from Cao Peng. The long street paved with gravel was smashed and cracked, and the flying stones flew past Cao Peng's cheek, marking a faint blood mark. A Haixi soldier was hit in the forehead by a gravel, and immediately bled profusely...... Cao Peng couldn't help but scold: "Chen Gongtai, you fucking take aphrodisiacs!" ”
He marched like a fly, and rushed to the head of the city.
Looking at the dense crowd of soldiers under the city, I couldn't help but have a big head.
"Childe, transfer troops......"
Xia Houlan rushed over and shouted loudly.
"There are nearly two hundred casualties, and we can't stand it!"
"Send me troops ......"
Cao Peng's eyes were also red, and he shouted loudly.
With his order, Wang Xu led more than 300 people from the west school field and quickly entered the battlefield.
"How many people are there in the West Campus?"
"Only Lieutenant Zhou and his three hundred men remained."
At the moment when Cao Peng and Wang Xu were talking, the Xiapi army launched an offensive again. Most of the 300 soldiers and horses brought by Wang Xu were temporarily recruited. In the face of those Xiapi soldiers who were not afraid of death, they immediately panicked. They didn't even know how to dodge the arrows, and in an instant, more than a dozen people fell in pools of blood. The rest immediately panicked, shouted at the head of the city, and fled in confusion.
It is no wonder that after less than ten days in the army, he was pulled to the battlefield.
How can these recruits not panic? But it didn't matter if they panicked, but the soldiers at the head of the city also began to panic.
Cao Peng was furious, rushed forward with a knife, and slashed several fleeing soldiers in a row.
"Whoever dares to panic again, don't be killed."
In an instant, the soldiers at the head of the city seemed to calm down.
"Hide in place, ready to fight...... If I see anyone walking around the city, they will do. ”
Panicked, it seems to have been suppressed!
But Cao Peng smiled bitterly again and again...... Such recruits, counting on them to fight? If it really matches the battlefield, Gan Ning with fifty people, he can wipe them out.
"Otherwise, transfer County Lieutenant Zhou?"
Xia Houlan was not very optimistic about these recruits, and couldn't help but make suggestions to Cao Peng.
Requisition?
Cao Peng couldn't help but be a little moved.
It is undeniable that the soldiers and horses under Zhou Cang are far from being comparable to these recruits. If they come up, they can increase their combat power by at least 20%.
But in my heart, I vaguely felt that something was not quite right.
Chen Gong's crazy attack gave Cao Peng a strange warning. He felt that Chen Gong must have other purposes for attacking like this.
"What's the situation on Wen Qi's side?"
"The casualties have also exceeded 100."
Cao Peng patted his forehead and gritted his teeth, "Survive this round first, it's about to get dark, look at that Chen Palace, what tricks are there." ”
"Whoa!"
———————————————————————— front of the Pi army, Chen Gong stood on the chariot and quietly watched the battle.
At that moment, after the Pi army was defeated again, a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Strategist, do you want to continue the attack?"
"Summons, pause the attack!"
"Huh?"
The herald was stunned for a moment, then turned to pass the order.
After a while, I saw Lu Ji galloping towards him, and after stopping in front of Chen Gong's car, he said loudly: "Military advisor, why did you stop attacking?" ”
He was originally arranged to sit in the rear army, but when the battle came, he was entrusted with the task of attacking the eastern city.
"Almost."
"What is almost?"
Lu Ji looked confused and looked at Chen Gong in confusion.
Chen Gong couldn't help but feel contempt in his heart, and secretly sneered: With this bit of eyesight, do you still want to inherit Wen Hou's family business?
However, he still patiently explained: "On the West City Gate just now, there was chaos in the Haixi Army.
Presumably, today's attack has forced out their last strength. The Haixi soldiers in the city just now are likely to be a group of new soldiers. The old pawn died in battle, and the new pawn took over. In other words, there was no spare strength in Quyang City, and even the last bit of soldiers were sent. ”
"So what?"
"Hehe, tonight, it's time to break the city."
Chen Gong sneered and no longer explained to Lu Ji.
He immediately ordered: the whole army rested.
Lu Ji was confused, and he didn't know what kind of medicine Chen Gong was selling in his throat.
Just about to turn back to the camp in Dongcheng, he was stopped by Chen Gong: "Young Monarch Marquis, the first merit of Quyang City Break, it still needs Shaojun Marquis to ascend first." ”
"Oh?"
"The defense of the West City has reached its limit, and I am ready to launch another onslaught tonight.
Their walls had been broken twice before, and now they were in danger. Didn't the young prince want to be the first to rush into Quyang and establish the first merit? ”
This Chen Gongtai is really good to me!
When Lu Ji heard this, his heart suddenly burst into joy, and he nodded again and again.
"Then, the general attack on the West City Gate will be under the command of the Young Monarch Marquis."
"Rest assured, Lu Ji will break through Quyang and wait for the military advisor in the city."
"So, get ready."
Chen Gong drove away, and as he was marching, he suddenly ordered the heralds around him, "Please General Cao to come, just say that everything is ready." ”
"Whoa!"
Chen Gong put up a pergola in his hand and looked at Quyang City under the slanting sun, glowing with a bloody light. The thin and clear cheeks revealed a strange smile.
"Cao Youxue, I'm going to make a move!"
At the same time, ———————————————————————— thirty miles away from Xiapi City, in the dense forest on the bank of the Zushui River, Gan Ning was sitting on a boulder in a bit of embarrassment.
"Bo Miao, what should I do?"
Deng Zhi looked sad, closed his eyes, and was silent in thought.
In the meantime, when the fierce battle in Quyang was in full swing, Gan Ning led his troops to assault the Xiapi army several times, trying to alleviate the offensive of the Xiapi army and share the pressure of Cao Peng. Who knows, the Xiapi army is ready for battle. Charged several times, losing troops and losing troops, but unable to get close to the opponent...... The surname Cao sits in the rear army, calm and measured, and commands properly.
He didn't attack, he didn't look for it, but waited for Gan Ning to come.
A thousand crossbowmen lined up in the rear. Whenever Gan Ning led his troops to attack, he would be blocked by a rain of arrows. After several attacks in a row, Gan Ning lost more than 20 people, and he didn't dare to attack easily. He had only three hundred men in his hands, and more than twenty died, leaving only more than two hundred. And the surname Cao is a typical hedgehog tactic. If you attack, I will block it with a strong bow and a crossbow; You fled, and I ignored you.
At the end of the day, Gan Ning was full of anger in his heart...... In the face of the rogue tactics of the Xiapi army, Deng Zhi did not have any good ideas.
The people have already made up their minds, that is, to hold down Qu Yang and hit him hard. In this way, the cavalry raid on the periphery is obviously ineffective. If you continue to fight with this tactic, not only will you not be able to share the pressure of Qu Yang, but even your own people will have to be thrown into it. Obviously, the war of attrition and procrastination set before can no longer be used, and another way must be found...... "Xingba, I have a plan, maybe I can solve the danger of Quyang." ”
"What's the solution?"
Gan Ning hurriedly asked.
Deng Zhi said: "This plan is a bit risky, and at the same time, it also requires Youxue to be able to withstand the onslaught of Chen Palace, at least two to three days. ”
"You say!"
"You and I are divided into two ways."
Deng Zhi whispered in Gan Ning's ear, Gan Ning frowned at first, and after a while, he nodded violently, "Now, this is the only plan!" ”
