Chapter 130: Siege Battle [2]
Chapter 130: Siege Battle [2]
Although the first wave of the Shengjie army's attack seemed to be powerful, it was actually just because the bullback thieves were too frightened, resulting in not playing their due strength. And the Shengjie army is a new army in the end, plus the bullback thief has the support of the city wall of Dongkou Town, and he was not able to take Dongkou Town during this time, and after the cowback thief reacted, the Shengjie army was immediately counterattacked by the bullback thief.
A knock-off version of the Yaksha rolled down from the top of the city, this Yaksha was made improvised, but even so, it was terrifying enough. The wooden body, which is about nine feet long, is nailed with curved iron spikes ranging in length from three or four inches to one foot, and the iron bars are irregularly distributed on the wooden body. fell on the soldiers of the Shengjie Army, and immediately swept away the bloody rain.
Because of the irregularity, the soldiers who touched him were blurred by the flesh of the iron barbed hooks, and severely, the corpses were fragmented. Immediately killed five Shengjie soldiers and seriously injured them.
The blood and flesh sprinkled on the city walls looked so horrifying.
There is also a hemp rope the thickness of a child's arm tied at the top end of the Yaksha, and when it falls under the city wall, it can be pulled back and reused.
Of course, what is a bullback thief? Saying that it is a rabble does not mean to belittle them at all, Zhao Yu has already learned the news of the bullback thief from the captive, the bullback thief is not a share, in fact, it is just equivalent to a loose alliance, among more than 3,000 people, there are actually four leaders in the big ones, and thirteen in the small ones.
The little bullback thief is subdivided, and there are actually seventeen forces, don't you say that this is not a temple demon?
Because of this, resources are not well distributed, and there are many bullback thieves, but the Yaksha is only four built! More cattle thieves were thrown with bricks and wood that had been removed from the town of Higashiguchi.
The Shengjie army counterattacked with bows and crossbows below, and it was not lively for you to come and go, although the bullback thieves defended the city, but the number of casualties was much more than that of the Shengjie army.
However, in the final analysis, the Shengjie army is the first time to attack the city, and it is the first battle, and the Shengjie army is a little underprepared, just like a shield, among the 1,000 attacking Shengjie army, there are only 300 shields. At first glance, it is barely enough, but the reality is not.
Sensei said that the Shengjie military used a wooden shield with tung oil or black lacquer on the surface, even if it was a real iron shield, a blue brick was thrown down from a height of two zhang, and there must be an obvious pit. Although the wooden shield doesn't care about being smashed all at once, it will also smash a relatively large pit.
It's okay to do it once or twice, but what about three times or four? What about five or six hits?
The number of wooden shields was greatly reduced, and some soldiers had to endure the throwing of bricks and wood to grit their teeth and besiege the city.
Gongsun Xuanxu couldn't help frowning, and said to Zhao Yu: "Lord Wang, if you attack like this, the casualties are too great, right?" ”
"Although the casualties are large, only in this way can we train elite soldiers!" Zhao Yu actually wanted to order the withdrawal of the army several times in his heart, but Yizhou no longer allowed Zhao Yu to train calmly. Now the only way to do this is to fight bloodily and train a strong army with a strong mind, and then slowly train the formation and the like in the future.
After half an hour, fierce people like Wang Qi and Zhang Meng couldn't help it, and sent people to ask Zhao Yu for permission to rest for a while before attacking the city.
Zhao Yu also knew that he couldn't push too hard, thought about it, nodded and said, "Rest for an hour." Zigao, you take people to count the casualties! Mr. Xuanxu, please take Lang Zhong to heal the wounded soldiers! ”
"The subordinate obeys!" Qian Yanyuan and Gongsun Xuanxu agreed and went down.
Zhao Yu turned over and dismounted, and walked to the main tent that was temporarily set up nearby to rest. Because it was set up temporarily, and there was a need for combat, the tent was semi-open. Zhao Yu sat on the rattan chair inside, feeling very tired and wanting to sleep.
Although Zhao Yu did not charge into battle, his energy was not small at all. Suppressing the benevolent heart in my heart, forcing myself to be tough, learning in the war, observing what I should do if I command a battle, and if I do it wrong, where is the reason, and how to improve.
A pair of soft and slightly cold plain hands quietly landed on Zhao Yu's temples.
Zhao Yu immediately woke up.
"Lord Wang, it's a slave!" A gentle voice sounded a little timid.
Zhao Yu looked sideways, it was Jiao Niang.
When Jiao Niang saw Zhao Yu looking over, she looked at Zhao Yu a little nervously, but after a moment, she lowered her head, and two seductive red glows appeared on her pretty face.
Although Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart, he was a person who was very good at controlling his emotions, and continued to lean on the rattan chair and said calmly: "You have worked hard for this king!" It's just that why did you come to this king? ”
"It's the lady who is afraid that something will happen to the prince, so she sent a slave and maid to investigate. When the slave and maid came in, when they saw that you were so tired, you couldn't help but overstep, please forgive the prince! Jiao Niang said cautiously.
Zhao Yu enjoyed Jiao Niang's massage very much, and said disapprerovingly: "It's nothing, well, continue and don't stop!" ”
Jiao Niang nodded, and did her best to massage Zhao Yu.
Before I knew it, an hour had passed, and the sun had begun to set in the west, but the sun was still fierce, and it was now about three or four years in the afternoon.
Zhao Yu was woken up by the sound of drums, stood up, and looked at the beautiful lady who couldn't hide her tiredness, Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel a little apologetic. "I've worked hard for you, my hands must be very tired, right? Take a break here! ”
After that, Zhao Yu didn't wait for Jiao Niang to answer, he had already walked out of the tent with an arrow.
Jiao Niang looked at Zhao Yu with a confused gaze, and after half a sound, she couldn't help but sigh faintly. Hands on the rattan chair, feeling the residual warmth he left behind, there is an illusion that he is touching him.
…………
By the time Zhao Yu came to Gaogang, the war had already begun.
Looking at the arrangement of Wang Jue, Zhang Meng and others, Zhao Yu couldn't help but nod his head secretly in his heart.
Learning a lesson, Wang Qi and others cut down branches and firewood nearby, and temporarily built a tower shield with 30 sides and a height of one person. Of course, if it is a tower shield, it is a bit elevated, because the shield is tied together with tiny branches and firewood. However, the characteristic is that the surname is good, and the green bricks that deal with the bullback thief are very suitable, even if they have a great defensive effect on the bow and arrow.
It's not that the shield is so powerful, it's just that the bullback thief's bow and arrow are too incompetent.
In addition, Wang Jue pulled 500 people to supplement the troops, and the strength reached about 1,200 people, divided into three divisions, each with 400 people. did not attack strongly, and the three troops and horses attacked in turn. If the bullback thief's defense was weaker, he immediately showed a tough attitude and launched a strong attack, but when the cowback thief reacted, Wang Qi and they immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops.
And in this there are also a lot of problems, many soldiers did not do a good job of retreating and attacking, although the casualties were fewer than the previous strong attack, but there were also dozens of casualties.
