The remnant sun is like blood. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Five days have passed, and the city wall has become a bloody patch, and Zhang Jue, who personally commanded the battle on the city wall, didn't even have the heart to arrange for the sergeants to take advantage of the break in the attack to clean up.

The attack of the Mongol Tatars was too fierce, completely beyond Zhang Jue's imagination, the people who could be recruited in the city were almost all recruited, the heavy casualties made Zhang Jue a little trance, the battle to attack the city was not only carried out during the day, but also at night, and the rain of arrows of the Mongol Tatars had become the dream of the soldiers on the city wall.

The courage of the Mongolian Tatars, Zhang Jue knows, but in his impression, the Mongolian soldiers are really not good at attacking the city, and they have no special ability, but this time is different, the new annex army led by Liu Yuanzhen is very skilled in attacking the city.

Every time the Mongolian army attacks the city, the number of people involved is not very large, when the Mongolian army in front of the city charges, it must be followed by a large number of Mongolian cavalry, the main task of these cavalry is archery, as long as the sergeants on the city wall dare to take the lead, they will definitely attract a large number of bows and arrows, and the Mongolian army's trebuchet is very powerful, huge stones are thrown towards the city wall, even Zhang Jue can feel every shaking of the city wall.

The sergeants under his command were still extremely brave and resisted desperately, and by this time, everyone understood that once the city was breached, everything was lost, and the Mongol Tartars would not ask for any prisoners, nor would they let go of anyone in the city, and everything could be seen clearly from the hideous faces of the Mongol troops who attacked the city.

It has reached the point of breaking the kettle, and many sergeants are desperately resisting.

Zhang Jue was not particularly impressed by the new Mongolian Chengdu Road Army Horse Strategy Liu Yuanzhen, and he admired the predecessor Liu Heima, Liu Heima fought tenaciously and bravely, and many times he was in the front, in the battle of Diaoyu City, Zhang Jue had seen Liu Heima lead the army to launch a crazy attack.

However, five days have passed, and Zhang Jue feels awe of Liu Yuanzhen, who has never met him, from the bottom of his heart.

In the process of attacking the city, Liu Yuanzhen has not shown up, but the arrangement and deployment of his siege made Zhang Jue very annoyed, the main attack of the Mongolian army is the south gate, but the north gate, the west gate and the east gate, are not peaceful, often a small number of soldiers of the Mongolian army, when the south gate is in full swing, raid these city gates, forcing Zhang Jue to divide a large number of troops to garrison the rest of the city gates.

The troops in Zhang Jue's hands were insufficient, and the people recruited from the city had no effect at all, and many times they would make mistakes, these people went to the city wall, and their bodies began to tremble, and when they saw the blood on the city wall, some people even began to dizzy and stood unsteadily, let alone pick up weapons to resist.

It is impossible for Zhang Jue to complain about these people, after all, they have not experienced fighting and fighting.

As the battle continued, the casualties increased, and many sergeants fell under the rain of arrows from the Mongol army.

Zhang Jue couldn't think of a good way to deal with it, when the Mongolian army attacked the city, the sergeants had to resist on the city wall, although all the sergeants were equipped with shields to resist the bows and arrows of the Mongol army, but when the ladder was erected on the city wall, the sergeant had to put down the shield in his hand and began to attack the Mongolian sergeants who climbed up towards the city wall, that is, at this time, a large number of bows and arrows whistled in, and a large number of casualties began to appear.

On the third day of the battle, Zhang Jue finally understood that the Mongolian army did not plan to take the south gate soon, and every time a small number of Mongolian troops attacked the city wall, more Mongolian cavalry were armed with bows and arrows, staring at the back, and the sergeants fighting on the city wall, that is, when they stopped the Mongolian army from attacking, they were shot by the bows and arrows that roared.

Liu Yuanzhen wanted to kill and injure a large number of sergeants under Zhang Jue through every attack.

Such an attack was a huge blow to the sergeants stationed in the city, and it was a huge blow to morale.

On the fourth day of the attack, Zhang Jue made a decision, that is, to focus on the cavalry of the Mongolian army, that is, when a small number of Mongolian troops attacked the city, do not attack rashly, and wait until these Mongolian troops really start to attack, and then counterattack.

However, Zhang Jue's decision almost made a big mistake, more than a dozen Mongolian soldiers climbed to the city wall, and more Mongolian soldiers took the opportunity to rush to the city, if it wasn't for Zhang Jue's death order, no matter how much price he paid, he would have killed the Mongolian army that attacked the city wall and stopped the Mongolian army's all-out charge, maybe at that time, an unimaginable situation would have appeared.

The heaviest casualties were also on the fourth day of the battle, and the sergeants of the Imperial Army of Xingyuan Mansion lost more than 1,000 casualties, which was more than the total number of casualties in the previous three days.

By the fifth day, the battle returned to its previous mode.

Zhang Jue's eyes were already red, and what he never expected was that the casualties of the Mongolian army attacking the city were much smaller than those of the sergeants guarding the city.

The trebuchet of the Mongolian army is getting closer and closer to the city wall, because of the suppression of the Mongolian army's bow and arrow, the sergeants on the city wall no longer dare to shoot the Mongolian army on the trebuchet, but fortunately, there are dozens of bows and crossbows on the city wall, and these bows and crossbows have become the most feared weapons of the Mongolian army.

The morale of the sergeants was getting lower and lower.

Late at night, Zhang Jue on the city wall took a nap with his clothes.

A burst of exclamations made Zhang Jue jump up.

The exclamation came from the battlement in front of him, and then the light of the torch, Zhang Jue walked to the battlement.

Under the city wall, the backs of several Mongolian soldiers who had left quickly could be seen, and a vague red thing was placed under the city wall, and the ropes that bound could be faintly seen.

A faint moan spread, and Zhang Jue's face changed.

This is not the first time, it is certain that the one who is tied by the rope is the sergeant sent by Zhang Jue to ask for help.

Zhang Jue has sent five batches of sergeants out of the city to ask for help, each batch of sergeants is composed of ten people, these sergeants are in great danger, hoping to break out of the heavy encirclement of the Mongolian army, to Fuyu Mountain, the battle has reached such a critical moment, Zhang Jue must ask the army stationed in Fuyu Mountain to come to help.

If you want to rush out of the thousands of troops, the difficulty can be imagined, this is almost an impossible task, but Zhang Jue must do this, after all, the army stationed in Fuyu Mountain does not know that the city of Bazhou is surrounded by the Mongolian army.

Looking at the figure still squirming under the city wall, Zhang Jue's face was gloomy and his fists were clenched.

The surrounding sergeants also bowed their heads and remained silent.

After a while, Zhang Jue spoke.

"Archers, let the brothers below the walls rest in peace."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Jue turned around and left.

The archers gritted their teeth and opened their bows and arrows, and shot at the people below, you must know that the Mongol army was very cruel, after catching these sergeants who tried to break out, they tied them up, cut off their ears and tongues, and cut off their hands and feet, but they did not kill these sergeants immediately, but sent these sergeants to the bottom of the city wall.

Rather than let these sergeants struggle in agony, it would be a relief to end their lives immediately.

When he slowly walked down the city wall, Zhang Jue no longer had the slightest sleepiness, he knew very well that the danger was already approaching unknowingly, after dawn in the coming day, the Mongolian army would definitely launch a large-scale attack, and the five trebuchets of the Mongolian army were already close to the city wall, once the trebuchet of the Mongolian army was completely close to the city wall, that was the beginning of the general attack of the Mongolian army, and at that time, whether the sergeants on the city wall could still resist the crazy attack of the Mongolian army, no one could say.

This is a battle that made Zhang Jue feel aggrieved to defend the city, think about the battle of Diaoyu City, tens of thousands of Mongolian troops tried to capture Diaoyu City, but they were not able to succeed, of course, the situation was different at that time, there were still some artillery pieces on Diaoyu City, and it was these artillery pieces that made the Mongolian Khan Meng Ge accidentally injured, and finally died of injuries.

It's a pity that there is no large artillery on the city wall of Bazhou.

Liu Yuanzhen obviously thought carefully about how to attack the city, and did not adopt a crazy attack, but tried every means to destroy the opponent's living force.

Zhang Jue had never experienced this method of attacking the city, and he felt that it was difficult to adapt for a while, and he couldn't even think of a way to deal with it, and he watched the casualties get bigger and bigger.

With the increasing casualties, Zhang Jue's heart also appeared subtle emotions, that is impatience, that is the taboo of commanders on the battlefield, Zhang Jue understands this, he tries to suppress his impatience.

The only hope is the Hezhou Imperial Army.

Nearly a month has passed, and I don't know what the situation of Chengdu Fucheng is, whether the Hezhou Imperial Front Army has launched an attack, or even taken Chengdu Fucheng.

However, such hope is very slim, even if the Hezhou Imperial Army takes the city of Chengdu, and the news reaches Bazhou, it will take a long time, I am afraid that by that time, the city of Bazhou has already fallen.

A trace of suspicion and helplessness flashed in Zhang Jue's eyes, could it be that Wu Shaogang was thinking that the 10,000 soldiers of the imperial army in the Xingyuan Mansion were used as bait, or was he ready to sacrifice these 10,000 soldiers to occupy the Chengdu Mansion City, if that kind of arrangement was too cruel.

Zhang Jue had nothing to say, after all, it was not Wu Shaogang who ordered him to command the army to guard the city of Bazhou.

However, Zhang Jue does not regret it, judging from the battle situation these days, if Zhang Jue had not come to command, I am afraid that the city would have been breached long ago.

There is already a hint of fish belly white on the horizon.

"Report to the commander, the Mongol Tartars have begun to attack the city...

In fact, the sergeant did not come to report, Zhang Jue also knew, from the rumbling drums and the sound of horses' hooves, he already knew, but today's drums and horses' hooves seem to be a little different, the drums are more urgent, and the horses' hooves are more intensive.

A strange smile appeared on Zhang Jue's face, he calmly tidied up the clothes on his body and walked towards the city wall.

"Order the brothers to defend to the death... (To be continued.) )
