Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Siege
Zhen Wuchen gritted his teeth violently, picked up the machete, hacked the cavalryman to death with one sword, and said loudly: "Death to those who retreat!! ”
All the cavalry stopped retreating and honestly stood by Guo Yaoshi's side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info didn't dare to go any further.
"Guards! Take care of it! If you're not afraid of death, go with me and cut down this group of iron shells, I Zhen Wuchen won't believe it, the cavalry can't do the infantry when they charge the formation!! Zhen Wuchen poked the horse's buttocks, and the horse took the lead and went straight to the Mo Dao formation, followed by dozens of loyal cavalry. It's closer, it's getting closer and closer, Zhen Wuchen can see clearly, the person in command behind the knife array is the general of the Song Army who killed his younger brother! The anger in my heart burns, and the hatred of killing my brother is not shared! Today, I have to avenge the six ministers! Thinking of this, Zhen Wuchen's heart sank, his horsepower accelerated, and he rushed straight to the knife formation!
The war horse neighed, blood splattered, and collided again, Zhen Wuchen personally experienced the great power of the strange military formation and this terrifying weapon. As soon as he rushed closer, he was slashed by three or four strangely sharp long knives, and it was easy to dodge. His mount was hacked to death. With his superb martial arts, he rolled in the Mo knife formation, slashing in the east and slashing in the west, but this group of soldiers was really armed to the teeth, and he didn't cut any of them after cutting for a long time. I almost killed someone with a Mo knife.
Zhen Wuchen was ruthless, kicked down a Mo knife hand, and the long knife in his hand slammed into the sergeant's chest, but he only heard a click, and he actually cut off the long knife in his hand. Seeing the soldier cut it, he secretly said that this armor was so hard, and he suddenly clenched his iron fist and slammed it into the chest of the strange knife hand. knocked the Mo knife hand unconscious. Just as he was about to do it, he felt a strong wind on the left side, and before Zhen Wuchen could think about it, he heard a sharp pain in his left arm, and with a click, his left arm was cut off by the Mo knife, and blood splashed on the broken stubble. Zhen Wuchen, who was in pain, screamed, a harrier turned over, dodged and moved, and escaped from the battle formation alive! The dozens of cavalry who rushed into battle with Zhen Wuchen had already been cut down at this moment, Zhen Wuchen was alone covering his wounds, dripping blood, and running towards the outside of the formation, like a lost dog at the moment.
Seeing that Ai Jiang was injured from a distance, Guo Yaoshi ignored the guards and took a group of people to pick up Zhen Wuchen. Hurriedly sent his subordinates to stop the blood for Zhen Wuchen. Zhen Wuchen, who had lost too much blood, was still pale at the moment. Weakly knelt under the horse of Guo Yaoshi, and said in a low voice: "The subordinates are useless!" Didn't break through the knife formation! ”
"Five ministers. You've done your best. Rest first! Pharmacist Guo dismounted and helped Zhen Wuchen up.
Liu Ping was standing on the city at this moment, looking at the Chang Shengjun who was suppressed by the Mo Dao Array under the city, and turned to Han Shizhong and Yue Fei and said: "You two lead the cavalry to charge into battle, I see that Guo Yaoshi's Chang Shengjun is scared out of their courage!" ”
"No!!" The two responded in unison. They went down the city tower together, opened the city gate, and rushed out of the city with more than a thousand cavalry, and rushed straight to the headquarters of Guo Yaoshi.
"Roar!! Yongding Army, forward, forward, forward!! The gate of the city opened, and more than a thousand cavalry rushed out of the city gate in unison, rolling up a puff of wolf smoke and rushing straight towards the victorious army. The victorious army, who had already been frightened by the Mo Dao Formation, all retreated involuntarily! Guo Yaoshi personally supervised the formation, holding a sharp sword in his hand, and led a group of personal guards to guard the back to supervise the battle, as long as there was a retreat, he was immediately killed, but there were still many victorious troops who were shocked and retreated.
At this time, the Yongding army infantry soldiers and horses in Yizhou City, under the leadership of Niu Gao, also rushed out of the city one after another and went straight to the Changsheng army. The sound of gold and iron clashing, the sound of knives piercing into flesh, and the sound of screaming and wailing are endless. Victory on the battlefield in ancient times was often accompanied by splashes of blood and the harvested lives of the other side. In the confrontation of cold weapons, the bet is on toughness, and the bet is on persistence! No soldier of the victorious army dared to turn back to face the battle, and the victorious army, whose morale had been lost, had long since collapsed. Guo Yaoshi didn't expect that he was defeated by Liu Ping again this time, and he lost three battles and three times, this Liu Ping is really his nemesis!
The defeat was like a mountain, and he was rushing to flee for his life early, looking at the rout that had long been out of control, Guo Yaoshi looked up to the sky and sighed, the sky is going to kill me!! At this time, the cavalry of the Song army was about to kill his own Chinese army, and Guo Yaoshi was escorted by his personal guards and galloped back. A large number of victorious soldiers also followed and kept retreating.
After! One-sided chase! The smile on Han Shizhong's face became brighter and brighter, and he muttered: "It seems that this time the gambling funds can be repaid." "As the commander of the cavalry, Han Shizhong, as a soldier, has already killed more than a dozen victorious troops!
Suddenly, he shouted, "Happy! Joyfully! Following the general's character, it seems to be really interesting!! Brother Yue, how about you and I compete! Han Shizhong said with a smile.
"How do you compare?" Yue Fei picked up a soldier with a shot.
"It's better to see who killed Pharmacist Guo first!" Han Shizhong shouted.
"Good!! Compare to compare! Yue Fei responded. Two people admire each other but compete with each other, and neither of them obeys the other. One has a playful face, while the other is a knowledgeable and steady person. But both of them are fierce generals with righteousness in their hearts and excellent martial arts!
The cavalry of the Yongding Army was wrapped in an invincible momentum, and in one go, they chased the Changsheng army out of more than 20 miles, and more than 3,000 soldiers were slashed along the way. It's just that Pharmacist Guo fled early. Liu Ping also went out of the city, followed them with a large group of men and horses, and pursued them all the way.
At this time, under the escort of hundreds of cavalry and more than 1,000 soldiers, Guo Yaoshi fled back to Zhuozhou, opened the city gate, and hurriedly entered the festival hall. instructed the soldiers in the city to prepare for precautions, the Song army is coming.
All the soldiers in the city of Zhuozhou were all stepping up to prepare for the defense of the city, rolling wood and stones, large stones, and boiling boiling water, all waiting for the arrival of the Song army. But because the food had not yet been paid, they were all working there hungry.
As soon as Guo Yaoshi returned to Zhuozhou with the front foot, Liu Ping came here with the team.
Liu Ping looked at the busy soldiers in Zhuozhou City with a calm face at this time and shouted: "The Great Song Dynasty King is about to arrive, so you should surrender as soon as possible, otherwise you will be buried in the city with Na Guo Yaoshi!! ”
After Liu Ping finished shouting, all the Yongding troops under his command shouted in unison: "Surrender!!! "Sonic booms for miles. Immediately, the victorious soldiers in the city were frightened and dodged, for fear that the Song army under the city would attack.
"Surround Zhuozhou City! I don't believe it, he Guo Pharmacist can hold on! Liu Ping commanded coldly.
At this time, the most worried was Guo Yaoshi, who knew in his heart that the Yongding Army was going to besiege but not attack, trapping himself alive, there was a shortage of food in Zhuozhou City, and there was an extreme shortage of food, otherwise he would not collect food everywhere. At this time, the Zhuozhou ration could only last for 3 days, and after three days, I am afraid it would be dangerous.
At this time, Zhuozhou, by Liu Ping will be the front and rear gates and side gates have laid heavy troops, at night, Guo Yaoshi hurriedly ordered a few teams of people who dare to die, highlight the outer city, go to Yanjing to ask for help from the Jin people, dozens of strong and strong Changsheng army cavalry, take advantage of the night to want to highlight the encirclement, but unfortunately all were killed by the Yongding army guarding outside the city.
One night, Guo Yaoshi eliminated more than a dozen teams of cavalry one after another, trying to break out of the encirclement, but none of them succeeded. Above the city tower, Guo Yaoshi felt a sense of powerlessness, and he felt that he was really about to fall into a desperate situation.
The siege continued, and no reinforcements arrived from Yanjing's side. For three days in a row, the calm was surprisingly calm, in fact, from the first day of the siege of Zhuozhou. There were scouts in Yanjing who got the news, but there were two voices in Yanjing City, one faction of Jin soldiers and generals thought that they had to go to aid Zhuozhou, and thought that Guo Yaoshi was also obedient to Dajin, if they didn't go to the rescue, I was afraid that Yanjing would lose its barrier by then, and the Yongding army would come to Yanjing.
The other faction believes that Guo Yaoshi is just a Liao general, and it doesn't matter if he can't save it, not to mention that there are not many troops in Yanjing City, only a few thousand people, Zong Wang returned to the division, took away most of the elites, and said before leaving that he would let the town hold Yanjing, if he attacked rashly and was invaded by other Song troops, wouldn't he have made a big mistake, so it's better not to save it. The two factions were deadlocked for a few days, and finally the unsaved ones took the main position, so there was no news. However, every day, the Jin people were sent to probe the horses to check from afar, and the scouts sent by Liu Ping also found the Jin people in the distance, but they just chased and killed the past, bombarded away from afar, and those who did not open their eyes did not leave, so they were caught up by the cavalry of the Yongding Army and slashed and killed. After that, all the Jinren cavalry of Yanjing no longer dared to wander around the Yongding army.
The siege continued, for a day, two days, three days、、、、、、、、。
Seven days had passed, and all the victorious troops in the city had been starved of food four days earlier, and the hungry soldiers had slew down their horses, and all the cattle and everything that could be eaten in the city had been eaten, except for the people. The people in the city starved to death in batches, and there were less than 10,000 of the more than 30,000 people in the city at the moment.
"General, such a siege of the city, I'm afraid that the victorious army in the city will not surrender obediently!" Han Shizhong sat on a horse, dressed in armor, looking forward to Shengwei, and now he is also a serious seven-rank military general of the Yongding Army, which is probably unthinkable in the Western Army, if Han Shizhong is still in the Western Army at this time, I am afraid that he can only be a non-qualified captain in this life. There will never be a day to emerge. Now he is a senior general in the Yongding Army. It's all thanks to the young man in front of him. Decisive in killing, brilliant and intelligent, and always more thoughtful than others, more peculiar. It's just that this martial art is really too bad, and it really doesn't match this tall body. However, Han Shizhong feels that those who can fight are not necessarily qualified commanders. People who can't fight don't necessarily can't lead thousands of troops, such as the young boss in front of him.
Liu Ping raised his eyes on the horse and looked at the people and soldiers who were guarding the city in Zhuozhou City, and saw that there were vegetables on their faces. At first glance, he was hungry, Liu Ping saw it really, a soldier of the Changsheng Army staggered to move a piece of stone, and wanted to put it on the city wall, but before he could hold it, he fell straight down.
"Maybe, I have a solution!" Liu Ping muttered.
"Old Han, come here with your ears." Liu Ping said to Han Shizhong beside him.
"General, please command." Han Shizhong turned his ear sideways.
"You are like this, find some military rations, not too much, just a dozen bags, and put them at the gate of the city......" Liu Ping said in a low voice.
"The last general understands!" Han Shizhong responded. "Hehe, general, your strategy is really a bit poisonous!"
"What's the matter, hurry up!" Liu Ping scolded with a smile.
"Hehe, this idea is really vicious! Maybe I've really changed! Liu Ping secretly smiled bitterly.
