Chapter 148: Gao Tang Prefecture Breaks
The red is slanting westward, dyeing the clouds in the sky blood-red.
Gao Lian looked at the rows of ladders, trench filling cars, lookout cars, sky cars, and hook collision cars that had been built outside the city, as if he had also seen the end of his blood splashing on the city.
originally thought that Liangshan was just a group of rabble, as long as the city gate was closed, a thousand people guarding the city could make it difficult for Liangshan's soldiers and horses to move an inch.
I didn't expect the soldiers and horses of Liangshan to create so many siege equipment, and then look at the fact that there are a lot of Ding Zhuang mixed on the city wall, as if the soldiers and horses outside the city are the imperial court, and the defenders of the city have become a rabble.
With so many siege equipment, I am afraid that it will not be long before this city cannot be defended.
The commander of the city guard saw that the Liangshan soldiers and horses were still pushing the siege equipment made in the distance to the outside of the city in a row, swallowed his saliva, and said: "It seems that the Liangshan bandits will attack the city at the latest, and I don't know when the reinforcements will arrive." ”
Gao Lian frowned and said: "It is said that Dongchang Mansion and Qizhou soldiers and horses should arrive in one or two days, it is difficult to be blocked by Liangshan soldiers and horses." ”
The commander glanced at Gao Lian cautiously, and said: "Maybe they don't dare to send troops to save us at all, the Liangshan bandits are in full swing, and when they receive the letter, they may be so frightened that they close the city gate, and they are afraid that the Liangshan bandits will attack them." ”
Gao Lian looked at the soldiers in the city, couldn't help glaring at the commander, and was about to scold, thinking that he still had to rely on him to defend the city, so he barely suppressed his anger and said: "When they don't save me, my brother must not let them go." Everyone can rest assured, as long as you hold on for one or two, there will be reinforcements. ”
The soldiers in the city also knew that Gao Lian's brother was a captain, so they were a little relieved.
"Okay, you keep an eye here, don't let the soldiers slack off, maybe the Liangshan bandits will suddenly attack the city tonight."
Gao Lian confessed again, then turned around and walked down the city.
Walking to a place where everyone in the city could not see, Gao Lian couldn't help but show a trace of worry on his face, although his brother was a captain, but if the others only sent three or five hundred soldiers and horses to deal with the errand, they were afraid that they would not even be able to break through the encirclement of Liangshan soldiers and horses, how could they save him.
Knowing this, he should have abandoned the city and fled when the soldiers and horses of Liangshan blocked the four gates.
When Gao Lian repented of his mistakes, he only heard someone in the city shouting: "My lord, it seems that there are reinforcements"
When Gao Lian heard this, he hurriedly turned around and ran to the city, only to see that two or three miles outside the city, a team of men and horses were carrying dust to the city, and there were many soldiers and horses chasing after him.
Look at the city gate that is about to be killed, the Liangshan soldiers and horses who blocked the city gate have met it again.
The commander finally saw the reinforcements, but he was blocked again, and couldn't help shouting: "It's not good, it's blocked again, and the chasing soldiers behind are about to come up." ”
Gao Lian also clenched his fists, looking at the soldiers and horses outside the city, hoping that reinforcements could come into the city, so that there would be more soldiers to defend the city.
As long as you hold on until the army of the Daimyo Mansion comes to the rescue, then it will be the time of the destruction of the Liangshan bandits.
When the pursuers behind him were about to catch up, the reinforcements finally broke through the intercepted Liangshan soldiers and horses and rushed towards the city gate.
The commander hurriedly shouted: "They have come out, open the gates and let them in"
Gao Lian hurriedly said: "Slow, do you see their banner clearly?" ”
"It's the soldiers and horses of Dongchang Mansion, there is Zhang Qing's military flag, I have long heard that he has the courage of ten thousand people, he personally led the troops to rescue, no wonder he can break through the siege of Liangshan bandits."
Gao Lian had also heard of Zhang Qing's name, and hurriedly said: "Open the city gate and let them in, and the archers in the city will intercept the pursuing soldiers behind." ”
Chao Yong was mixed among the soldiers and horses of Dongchang Mansion, watching the Gaotang Prefecture suspension bridge slowly lowered, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.
The good show of this battle finally won the city gate, although in order to play more realistically, many soldiers were injured, but compared to the siege, the casualties were still much smaller.
"Bang"
The drawbridge crashed down to the edge of the moat, and the gates inside were opened.
Zhang Qing led the soldiers and horses of Dongchang Mansion to flock in.
"Put"
The commander of the city saw that the pursuers had also entered the range of the archers in the city, and as soon as the order was given, thousands of arrows were fired in the city, and the arrows that flashed cold and shone rushed towards the pursuers of Liangshan.
Although there are not many soldiers at the head of the city, there are many Ding Zhuang who were driven to the city by Gao Lian, as long as there are enough people, there is no shortage of bows and arrows in the city.
In order to train a strong soldier who is enough to protect his safety during the Liao expedition, Gao Lian has allocated a lot of weapons through Gao Yu, only the weapon of the country, the divine arm crossbow, which is strictly controlled by the imperial court and cannot be allocated privately, but there are many ordinary bows and arrows.
"Ahh
"Ahh
The soldiers and horses of Liangshan, who were chasing too quickly, suddenly resounded with a miserable scream.
Ou Peng put aside a few bows and arrows, saw that his soldiers and horses fell under the bows and arrows in the city, hurriedly turned the horse's head, and shouted: "Retreat." ”
Gao Lian saw that Liangshan's pursuers stopped pursuing in the city, so he walked to the inner city.
After Zhang Qing led the men and horses into the city, he took Chao Yong to the city.
Gao Lian saw Zhang Qing, who had entered the city as a horse, walking towards the city with a young general, and also walked to the Yongdao crossing, waiting for them to salute.
"The last general, Zhang Qing......"
As soon as Zhang Qing opened his mouth to speak, Chao Yong had already rushed forward with an arrow step.
When Gao Lian saw Chao Yong rushing towards him, he just felt that something was wrong, and when he wanted to dodge, he was already choked by Chao Yong's neck, only to feel that it was difficult to breathe, and he rolled his eyes.
Chao Yong's hand was slightly lightened, and said: "Let the people in the city put down their weapons, otherwise you won't be able to see the sun tomorrow." ”
Gao Lian took a few big breaths before he felt that death was a little farther away from him, and hurriedly shouted, "Put down your weapons." ”
When the soldiers who had already gathered around heard this, they couldn't help but look at the commander.
Chao Yong stared at the commander and said: "Those who surrender will not die, and those who resist will not be killed." ”
"Choking"
The commander saw that the soldiers and horses of Dongchang Mansion who had entered the city had already poured into the city, and he also knew that the defeat was decided, so he directly threw the weapons in his hands and tied his hands.
Seeing this, the soldiers at the head of the city also threw their weapons one after another.
Zhang Qing led people up to control the head of the city, and received the Liangshan army into the city.
In the city where Chao Gai led the army, he set an example to reassure the people, and let the law enforcement team of the army patrol along the streets to prevent anyone from encroaching on the people; While leading everyone to the prison to save Chai Jin.
And when they came to the prison, they were all in prison, and all the prisoners had escaped, and there were thirty or fifty prisoners.
When the prisoners in the prison suddenly saw a group of big men with weapons come in, they couldn't help but hide in the depths of the cell in fright.
"Chai Daguanren"
"Chai Daguanren"
After shouting for a while, they saw a prisoner who had been beaten and bruised all over his body, struggled to the door of the prison and said, "The senior official was arrested just now." ”
Chao Yong hurriedly asked, "Where was he caught?" ”
"I don't know"
Wu Yong heard the words and said: "I think that Gao Lian has already been instructed, let's go to find Gao Lian." ”
When Wu Song heard this, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Gao Lian is a vicious guy, if there is anything wrong with the Chai official, I will definitely cut him to pieces." ”
The man saw that everyone was turning around to leave, and hurriedly shouted: "We are relatives of Chai Daguan, and we ask the heroes to save us." ”
When Chao Yong heard this, he remembered that there were still old and young people in Chai Huangcheng who were locked up in prison, and hurriedly asked people to let them out.
