Chapter 260 The Battle of Yanmen Pass (2)

Of course, such a morale boost was only short-lived, and soon, the soldiers discovered that the casualties of more than 1,000 people were nothing to the dense enemy outside the gate! The Turks who rushed to the front had already reached the bottom of the city wall, and more than 20 burly Turkic men suddenly picked up the big bow in their hands, bent the bow and set up arrows, and aimed at the gate, and directly shot the arrows! Unlike the short arrows of other Turks, these arrows are far longer and thicker than ordinary arrows! At the end of the arrow, there is also a long rope attached!

Seeing these Turkic archers, the tiger general Sima Dekan, who was commanding the soldiers to fight at the head of the city, immediately shouted loudly: "Here we go again!" Not again! Shoot under the city walls! Shoot under the city walls! As soon as Sima Dekan shouted, hundreds of archers of the Imperial Forest Army immediately poked their heads out and shot at the more than twenty Turks under the city wall with short arrows flying from outside the pass!

These archers of the Royal Forest Army were all marksmen, and the more than twenty Turks were immediately shot into a hornet's nest! It's a pity that it's still a step too late, and those special arrows have already left the string and are heading straight for the city! I heard the sound of bells and bells, and those arrows were already deep into the city wall, but where they landed was under the city!

Of course, it wasn't the Turks who shot crooked, but when the arrows were deeply inserted into the city wall, the ropes were also driven by the arrows to hang up on the city wall, becoming a passage to the city! The Turks were not good at attacking cities, so they couldn't build sturdy ladders to climb the city walls, but there were not no smart people among the Turks, so they came up with such a solution! A few days ago, the Turks used this method to attack the city, at first the Turks shot the rope directly on the city, but it was easily cut by the Imperial Forest Army on the city, so this time the Turks also learned to shoot the rope under the city, so that the Royal Forest Army could not cut it if they wanted to!

Seeing that the rope was firmly set, the Turks under the city wall began to climb along the rope, and behind them, there were comrades in arms who were covering them with arrows, and naturally they braved countless arrows to climb up! Sima De, who was in charge of the command on the other side of the women's wall, saw it, and was naturally anxious! After the Turks used this trick for the first time to rush to the head of the city, it brought a great threat to the defenders of the city, and was almost broken by the Turks! So Sima Dekan knew that these Turks must not be allowed to rush up! Immediately, Sima Dekan shouted to the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army on the left and right: "Prepare stones!" Smash me! Smash me! Come Major General! Let the archers help! ”

"It's coming!" Before Sima Dekan's words were finished, Lai Hong brought hundreds of archers forward, and just leaned against the female wall and shot out! The arrows poured down the city walls like a storm, and the Turkic soldiers who were climbing on the ropes were not equipped with any decent armor, and they were using their hands and feet together to climb on the ropes, and there was no way to block those arrows and stones, but they could only be hit in the head and shoulders by arrows and stones one by one, and fell off the ropes with screams!

However, the Turks outside the gate also responded, and there were nearly ten times more short arrows than the head of the city, and they flew frantically towards the head of the city! Whether it was those archers or the Royal Forest Army who raised their shields to defend, they were also hit by arrows and fell to the ground one after another, and a few people were directly hit in the head, and their bodies were crooked, and they fell directly from the city to the outside of the gate!

"Ahh Damn it! Sima Dekan suddenly let out an exclamation, but his right arm was shot by a short arrow, and the sharp short arrow directly penetrated his arm, and for a while, the blood flowed like an infusion! When the soldiers who were guarding Sima Dekan saw it, they also surrounded him, protected Sima Dekan, and rescued him in time.

"!" Seeing Sima Dekan's arrow, Lai Hong, who was directing the archers to fight back, also scolded, and directly took over Sima Dekan's command, and shouted to the soldiers on the left and right: "Don't stop!" Keep attacking! Get rid of this group of bitches! ”

"Drink!" All the soldiers shouted in unison, and the strength of his men was also stronger! After a few days of fighting, they all knew very well that if the Turks were allowed to attack the city, everyone would not survive!

A soldier had just raised the momentum in his hand, but he was directly shot in the chest by a short arrow! The soldier's body trembled, but he still gritted his teeth, roared angrily, threw the stone down, and saw with his own eyes that the stone knocked down three Turks one after another, and then he grinned and fell down with a smile. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info beside him, another soldier was celebrating his victory after throwing stones, but he was shot through the throat by a short arrow, and on his face, there was still a smug smile, but he fell on this battlefield forever!

"!" The tragedy on the battlefield far exceeded Lai Hong's imagination, Lai Hong watched his men die one by one, but he still couldn't suppress the Turkic attack! On the city wall, almost half of the wall has been densely covered with the figure of the Turks, if it continues like this, it will be a matter of time before the Turks attack the city! Lai Hong shouted angrily, turned his head directly, and shouted behind him: "Quick! Hurry up and get the oil on the roll! Scald this group of Turkic dogs for Lao Tzu! ”

"Hong'er! Don't be reckless! As soon as Lai Hong finished speaking, a handful of angry shouts rang out again, but it was the old man who had been sitting in the rear! I saw that Lai Hu'er was standing on the high platform, although his beard and hair were white, but the anger on his face was not reduced. Lai Hu'er glared at Lai Hong and shouted: "For the general, you need to stay calm at all times!" How have I taught you all these years? Now is not the time to use boiling oil, so don't mess with yourself! ”

Lai Hu'er's words were particularly loud, and they directly spread throughout the battlefield, not only Lai Hong, but also other soldiers heard it really. Laihu'er's words cheered up all the soldiers, and the morale of the soldiers soon reinvigorated, and the generals such as Laihong also regained their usual calm, at least, they would not be as disordered as just now. Seeing that Lai Hu'er was just a few words, he re-stabilized the army's heart, and Fan Zigai, who was beside Lai Hu'er, couldn't help but praise: "The old general is really powerful!" It really deserves to be the first general of the Great Sui! ”

"Lord Fan praised it falsely!" For Fan Zigai's praise, Lai Hu'er didn't even show a smile, but still had an indifferent expression, first nodded, and then said to Fan Zigai: "Lord Fan, Lord Lao is responsible for sending the supplies needed by the city head in time!" The old man couldn't get enough of the arrows on the city! ”

Fan Zigai was stunned for a moment, but soon understood that Laihu'er was arranging a task for himself! Although Fan Zigai is a literati, but it is not the kind of bile sour Confucian, but a decisive person to kill, when Yang Xuangan rebelled, Fan Zigai stayed in the eastern capital, in order to deter those who intend to throw thieves in the city, Fan Zigai in Luoyang but a big killing, enough to kill more than 10,000 people, scared that none of the defenders in Luoyang City dared to have other thoughts, bravely resisted the thieves, and then waited for the reinforcements to protect the children! If Yang Xuangan's rebellion was defeated in the battle of Luoyang, then Yang Xuangan can be said to have lost in the hands of Fan Zigai!

It is precisely because Fan Zigai is also such a Wenchen who dares to kill people and has also killed people, so after hearing Laihu'er's arrangement, Fan Zigai not only did not worry and fear, but was excited, and shouted at Laihu'er: "Old general, please rest assured, just leave this matter to me!" After speaking, Fan Zigai took more than 300 people and rushed directly towards the Guannei.

Fan Zigai had just left, and another sergeant ran quickly from the gate to the city, and took a look at the situation on the city, especially after seeing the high platform, only Laihu'er was alone, the sergeant immediately ran to Laihu'er, knelt down on one knee, and shouted: "Qiyu comes to the old general!" Your Majesty has already written the letter! Please ask the old general to send someone to break through! ”

"Hmm!" Just now I heard this proposal made by Xiao Yu to the Son of Heaven, and I didn't have any opinion on this plan, so I frowned and swept around the city, and finally shouted: "Whole child!" You take 500 Royal Guards and take them on fast horses! Get ready to break out! ”

Hearing Hu'er's shouting, soon a young soldier in brown armor covered in blood rushed out from among the soldiers. Now the Turks have not rushed up, and the blood on this young general's body is either his own or his comrades-in-arms, but looking at his energetic appearance, I am afraid that it is more likely to be his comrades-in-arms. This young general is the third son of Laihuer, and is also known as the bravest member of Laihuer's knees.

There are a total of five sons and three daughters under the knee of Laihu'er, the eldest son Laikai, the second son Laihong, and the third son Laiquan is ranked sixth, so Laicheng is also known as Liulang! As for the remaining two sons, they are very young and are still minors, so they have been staying at home in Dongdu.

The three sons of Laihu'er are already in the army, and the eldest son Laikai is now a member of his father's work, becoming a loose horseman, and is now quelling the chaos in Jiangdong, while the second son and the third son are all under Laihu'er's own account as generals. These three sons are more courageous than the other, Lai Hong has already shown his strength in last year's battle to conquer the east, and although Lai Cheng is also quite brave in the army, he has not yet been tested by the war! Laihu'er deliberately mentioned that Lai'er was responsible for the extremely dangerous task of breaking through, which made the generals a little surprised, but it seemed that Hu'er's expression seemed to be full of confidence, and they naturally didn't say much.

And after listening to Lai Hu'er's order, he raised his head, wiped his hand on his face, wiped the blood stains, and revealed a face that was still a little tender, with a grin, and smiled at Lai Hu'er's fist and shouted: "The last general takes the order!" ”
