Chapter 81: The Battle of Yang Zhai (4)

"Ignition!"

Dian Wei shouted, and soldiers in the city had already thrown more than a dozen torches downward. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

These torches met the oil juice on the siege cone, and quickly burned, and the fire spread very quickly, and at once dozens of soldiers of the Xiliang Army who had no time to get out were also wrapped in, and they were all more or less stained with oil juice, so it was a little bit.

The fire burned bigger and bigger, and quickly burned into a sea of fire along the place where the boiling oil had been dumped before, and the soldiers of the Xiliang Army were still rushing towards the ladder, but they were suddenly forced back by the scorching fire, this fire was like a separation belt, and they were forced back from the corner of the wall at once, and in the fire, hundreds of Xiliang soldiers who twisted their bodies and screamed in pain, this scene made the morale of the soldiers of the Xiliang Army drop rapidly.

Taking advantage of the fact that the siege troops below the Xiliang Army could not continue to attack, the defenders on the city wall immediately launched a counterattack, quickly killed all the soldiers of the Xiliang Army who had already ascended to the top of the city, and threw down the city wall!

The defenders began to cheer as the Western Liang army had finally begun to withdraw, and the first attack had been repulsed by them.

The siege equipment on the side of the Xiliang army had almost been destroyed, and Guo Yan had already found that the morale of the soldiers had been drained, so he ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

Looking at the Xiliang army that was retreating like a tide, Dian Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief, he wiped the sweat on his face, looked at himself, and found that he was like a bloody man, covered in blood, and all the soldiers looked at him with their eyes changed, as if he was like a Hades.

"General, you're not hurt, are you?"

Finally, a soldier plucked up the courage to ask, in their opinion, Dian Wei had so much blood on his body, eighty percent of him was injured, and injuries on the battlefield were too common, but it was still necessary to pay attention to bandaging.

"It's okay, it's not my blood!"

Dian Wei moved his body for a while, and found that there was nothing uncomfortable, just now he was only concerned about killing, he himself didn't remember whether he was injured or not, but it was okay to move a little, there should be nothing wrong.

"Quickly carry the wounded down the walls, clean up the corpses of our soldiers, and drop the corpses of the enemy on the walls."

After Dian Wei finished his order, he walked around the city wall, and saw Zhou Cang who was bandaging his wounds, so he asked, "What's wrong?" Hung the lottery? ”

Zhou Cang took a sip and scolded: "It's really fucking unlucky, the battle is over, and I was bitten by the enemy's bow and arrow, unlucky, unlucky!" ”

Shaking his head as he spoke, his injury was on the right side of the intercostal area, so every time he inhaled, the wound would be involved, and cold sweat was dripping on his forehead, but he gritted his teeth and didn't let himself exhale in pain, which would hurt morale.

Dian Wei patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, you go down and take a rest, I'll let Liao Hua and Gong Du come for you!" ”

After speaking, he walked down the city wall and came to Liu Zhi's side.

The city head was in full swing, but Liu Zhi pretended to be calm and calm and Guo Jia hid in the city to play chess, the two played Go, but he still couldn't calm down, although the person was on the chess table, his heart had already flown to the battlefield, and he was relieved until the shouting and killing on the city gradually became smaller.

"Lord, meditate, meditate, there is General Dian outside, what are you worried about!"

Compared with Liu Zhi, Guo Jia is obviously much calmer, and his chess skills are more than one step higher than Liu Zhi, so he won Liu Zhi three games in a row.

"Although the Xiliang Army is not good at attacking cities, but after all, there are more than 20,000 people, how can I not worry, I am not Zhuge Liang, so that the empty city plan will not breathe."

Liu Zhi wiped his sweat, the weather is really hot, it is about to be noon, and the scheduled time is getting closer and closer.

"Oh? Zhuge Liang? Who is he? What's going on with this empty city plan? ”

Guo Jia was obviously very interested in what Liu Zhi said, so he asked closely.

Liu Zhi was sweating profusely in his heart, Zhuge Liang used the empty city plan more than thirty years later, Zhuge Liang was only ten years old at this time, even if he said it by name, Guo Jia couldn't know, so he didn't explain, he fooled around casually and dealt with the past.

At this time, Dian Wei also came over, so he also helped Liu Zhi relieve the siege.

"Lord, military division, we have repelled the first attack of the Xiliang army, it is estimated that they will not wait too long, and they will launch a second attack soon."

Liu Zhi nodded, with his strength in Yangzhai City, of course it was no problem to hold one or two attacks, but this was not what he was most concerned about.

"Are there many casualties among our troops?"

Dian Wei nodded, "There are nearly a thousand casualties, all of them were injured by the enemy's trebuchets and bows and arrows, everyone has no experience in defending the city, so there are such large casualties, but the situation of the Xiliang army is not much better, they have paid at least twice the price of our attack this time, but there are a large number of dead bodies of the Xiliang army lying outside the city!" ”

Liu Zhi gasped, and there were nearly a thousand casualties! If this comes a few more times, his family will be hollowed out, and he already knew that the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang Army was so strong, so he didn't need this method to deal with them, but the plan had already come to this point, and it was useless for him to regret it at this time.

"Okay, if the Xiliang Army launches a second attack, you can send them a signal and tell them to launch an action in advance."

Dian Wei was taken aback and said, "Lord, there are still two hours before the scheduled time, can it be done if it is launched in advance?" ”

Liu Zhi nodded and said: "It should be almost, the military advisor and I have already seen the water level of Yingshui, it should be no problem, the reason why we launched the operation in advance is to avoid your losses, I don't want to fight you all here!" ”

After explaining to Dian Wei, Guo Jia glanced at Liu Zhi and said, "Lord, it's time to leave, this Yangzhai City is in disrepair, and if you stay inside, I'm afraid it won't be safe." ”

Liu Zhi nodded and said, "Yes, let's go out of the city first!" ”

After the two finished speaking, they got up and walked towards the water gate, a big ship of five hundred stones was already waiting here, the two got on the boat, the soldiers untied the ropes, slowly drove the boat out of the water gate, went down the river, and left Yangzhai City.

The Xiliang army rested for half an hour, and then launched another attack, this time Guo Yan did not spare any strength, but put his 15,000 attacking troops into the siege, for a while, the Xiliang army's offensive was more turbulent than before.
