Chapter 646: The Bloody Battle of the Northern Frontier's Ambition
Sunset, sunset like blood.
The rays of the remnant sun's rays were golden, reflecting under the majestic city of Jicheng, as if paved with a layer of blood-colored gold, which looked unusually desolate.
This is already the fifth day of the attack and defense of Jicheng.
From sunrise to sunset, the bloody battle that lasted for a whole day has just stopped, and both the Karasuma people and the Jicheng defenders are cleaning up the battlefield and looking for the corpse of their robes.
This battle was fought very fiercely, and the Karasuma tribe was pouring out of the nest, and the Karasuma tribe was in Youbeiping, Liaoxi, Liaodong, Yuyang, Shanggu, tens of thousands of tribes, gathered 30,000 cavalry, 30,000 young and strong, and was determined to win Jicheng.
Pan Feng led his troops to defend the city, although there were not many soldiers and horses, but he defended the city gate and did not lose an inch.
North City Gate.
This is the main battlefield, above and below the city, a piece of corpses and broken arms cover the ground, broken flags are scattered in all directions, one by one erected weapons are scattered, and the extremely bewitching blood has stained this area red.
The tragedy of this offensive and defensive battle has surpassed ordinary battles.
Unlike the soldiers of the Central Plains, under Cheng Yujian, he did not choose to divide his troops, but concentrated his forces and stormed the gate of a city.
This is the best choice for Karasuma soldiers.
Nomads, unparalleled cavalry, come and go like the wind, invincible in the field, but for the battle, they are 108,000 miles away from the soldiers under the command of the princes of the Central Plains.
They lack siege equipment and experience in siege, and if they face the ordinary small city walls, they can still be forced to run over them with their strength, but they will naturally suffer a lot against a city with high walls and thick walls such as Shangjicheng.
A full five days of onslaught. The Karasuma people have already paid nearly 10,000 casualties under the castle, which is more casualty than the Karasuma people have suffered in the past ten years.
And this is still the result of Cao Cao's henchman Cheng Yu assisting in the siege of the city, if it weren't for Cheng Yu's help, they would face this Jicheng, even if they paid double the casualties, I am afraid they would not be able to get the results they have today.
The huge casualties did not extinguish their ambitions. Instead, it stirred up their wildness.
For the assault on the north city gate, they became more and more ferocious day by day, and even charged in person several times, killing the head of the city, almost flattening this city gate.
Head of the city.
Pan Feng's tall and burly body stood erect like a javelin, his cloak was wisps and wisps, and the blood had stained the battle armor on his body red, and after he handed the big axe in his hand to his own soldiers, he took off his helmet. looked at the Karasuma battle flags fluttering outside the city, and the tiger's eyes were sharp.
"General, in today's battle, the casualties of our main force are too great, although the casualties of the Karasuma people are twice as many as ours, but now we only have less than five thousand left on the city gate, should we send young men to help defend the city tomorrow!"
Youzhou Thorn Shi Sun He stood beside him, his eyes also looking at the Karasuma camp outside the city. Asked a little worriedly.
The ferocity of the Karasuma people, even if he is a little unbearable.
"Nope. Now is not the time to dispatch them, now time is victory, we can hold on one day is one day, we can hold on one more day! ”
Pan Feng shook his head, his face was a little heavy, and he said lightly: "Although these young men have undergone the simplest training. But in the face of such a fierce and tragic offensive and defensive battle, they may not be able to stand up when they go up to the city, and it may not be useful! ”
For Pan Feng, the tens of thousands of young men in the city may not be helping, and may also pull their main force back.
In the country of Wu. In recent years, the system in the military has gradually improved, and there are clear regulations that soldiers who have not experienced more than half a year will never be allowed to go to the battlefield.
Even if a recruit goes on the battlefield after a year and a half, it is just a training to enter a small-scale battlefield.
The attack and defense of Jicheng is such a tragic offensive and defensive battle, even the veterans who have experienced life and death are a little unbearable, I am afraid that at most one day, the 10,000 young men recruited in the city will survive less than sixty percent.
He couldn't risk that.
"General, if we continue to fight like this, a certain family is afraid that the main force will be too damaged, and at that time, only with these tens of thousands of young people, they may not be able to defend the city gate!"
Sun He is also a person who knows soldiers, and he naturally understands, but Jicheng has now reached a moment of life and death, and he can't care about Erlang's casualties.
Defending Jicheng is the most important thing.
When Pan Feng heard this, he thought about it, and there was some truth, he groaned and spoke, and said: "That's it, tomorrow you will send three thousand young people to the city to assist in the defense, and familiarize yourself with the battlefield behind the main army, and the rest, wait!" ”
"No!"
Sun He nodded.
"By the way, Huang Zhong and Zhang Yan have any news to return?" After Pan Feng explained the matter of the city defense, in the last ray of the remnant sun, he walked down the city and returned to the lobby of the Youzhou Thorn Mansion.
Li Nie Shenlong saw the beginning and the end, and now he is planning how to besiege and kill Cheng Yu, and he can't even take care of the battle of Jicheng, and the Youzhou Assassin Mansion only has Jing and his party.
"Not yet!"
When Guan Jing heard this, he hurriedly shook his head, took out a file after half a ring, spread it out, looked at it, and then reported softly: "A few days ago, Zhang Yan has landed in Youbeiping, and is about to go north to Yuyang to recover Yuyang County, but General Huang Zhong has no news. ”
"No news is good news!"
Pan Feng's resolute face smiled, and said: "Now everyone is racing against time, whether he captured a certain Jicheng first, or Huang Hansheng copied his nest first, this is the key to the victory or defeat of this battle, a certain family believes in Huang Hansheng." ”
"But this person is not an ordinary person!"
Sun He squinted, stood beside Pan Feng, and said with a sigh: "These days, the strong attack of Bang Dun is obviously much more fierce than before, I'm afraid he has already seen some clues, so he is impatient!" ”
"An eight-year-old who dares to live alone in the prairie, who can fight and kill wild wolves at the age of ten, and who can tear tigers and leopards at the age of fifteen, by virtue of the identity of the servant, took over the identity of Karasuma Shan Yu of Qiu Liju, in just ten years, he unified all the tribes of Karasuma, and now he can still wave tens of thousands of troops, and go south to Youzhou, such people, do you think it will be simple?"
Pan Feng sat on the top seat with a straight waist. The eyes were clear, and there was a chilling battle brewing in the depths of his eyes.
These days, he has fought with Badon several times at the city gate, and the two are evenly matched, and Badun's personal combat strength is not below him, or even above him. If it weren't for the advantage of the terrain, he might not have been able to fight.
For the information of Bunton, Jinyiwei has already been sent to his case, Bunton is not only the leader of Karasuma, he is also a peerless general, good at using a pair of sky-bombing hammers, and he is a little unstoppable with fierce power.
"In today's situation, it is no longer important to see our strategic intentions. Even if you can see it, so what, this battle is fought to this point, it is too late for him to return to the prairie, either he takes Jicheng, or he loses without a fight! ”
The corners of Pan Feng's mouth raised a resolute arc, and he added: "With a person like him, there is only one choice." That is, at any cost, to take Jicheng. The battle of Jicheng may have just begun now, and the hard ones are still to come! ”
In three or five days at most, this battle will have a result, but three or five days is the most difficult day, and Jicheng must not be breached. Otherwise, all the efforts will be wasted.
If you want to uproot the Karasuma tribe, it depends on whether Jicheng can resist or not.
――――――――――――――――――――――――
Five miles away from the north city gate, the camp of the Karasuma tribe.
The night was very lonely, the sun and the moon were dark, and the camp was all around. A brazier had been erected, and the bright light of the fire reflected the whole camp.
Tent of the Chinese military camp.
There were three people in the big tent, and a man in the middle sat on a white wolf skin cushion, this was Karasuma Shan Yu Bandun, who now looked no more than about thirty years old, not strong, tall and thin, with a face like a lion and a tiger, and eyes like a cold eagle.
Standing on the left is Uyan, his fierce general, who was once the leader of the Karasuma tribe in the right Hokupira, who was later defeated by his troops and taken for his own use.
The middle-aged man on the right is Su Fuyan, who is his military advisor, and was the leader of Karasuma in the region of Liaodong Shu in the past.
Over the years, he has been the only strong man who can unify the Karasuma tribe in Youzhou, and his merits have surpassed those of Qiu Liju in the past.
"What about our casualties?" After a long time, he asked.
"The casualties of the warriors are very large, plus today's battle, our warriors, there are already 8,000 killed, 3,000 seriously injured and disabled, and countless minor injuries, just adults, the Karasuma people have never suffered such a big casualty over the years, and the tribal warriors have a lot of grievances!"
Su Fuyan said in a low voice.
"It's normal to have grievances!"
His face remained unchanged, his eyes flashed with a sharp cold glow, and he said lightly: "But for the sake of our Karasuma's eternal inheritance, even if you pay a lot of casualties, you must take Jicheng!" ”
"No!" Both of them are die-hard loyalists of Bunton, so they naturally obey him.
"Fuyan, tomorrow's siege will let Yan Rou's soldiers and horses be the vanguard!" He thought for a moment and said.
"Lord Yu alone, I'm afraid that Yan Rou is not very willing!" Su Fuyan squinted his eyes and said in a low voice.
"If he doesn't want to, he's dissatisfied with a certain family!" Suddenly, his eyes showed murderous intent, and he said coldly: "Then this person can't stay!" ”
He can keep the Han people for his own use, but he will never stay with a person with different intentions.
"Got it!" When Su Fuyan heard this, his face was shy.
"Uyan!"
"Alone in adults, a certain family is here!" Wu Yan bowed and bowed slightly.
"We are now initially a little short of grain and grass, and we can't support it for a few days, so I will give you 10,000 cavalry to expand the scope of the search, and you will scavenge all the villages within a radius of dozens of miles from Jicheng, wherever there is a single grain, you will scavenge it for me."
He squinted his eyes and said coldly.
After all, the strong walls of Jicheng still brought him a lot of trouble, and in just a few days, his food and grass could no longer support it.
"No!" Uyan took the order and walked down.
"Fu Yan, you took people to stare at Yan Rou and Wang Men, there is a certain feeling that they have colluded with Cheng Yu in a qiē!" He suddenly said: "I'm afraid Cheng Yu is not here to help so!" ”
Although Cheng Yu assisted him in attacking the city, he always felt an unkind aura.
In the prairie, intuition is important.
"Shan Yu, do you doubt?" When Su Fuyan heard this, his brows furrowed.
"The Han people have a saying, the praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind, the reason why a certain family came out of the nest and attacked Youzhou is to take advantage of the weakness of the Wu State, in order to lay a foundation for the Karasuma people, but it is definitely not to be a spear for people!"
He is the Tianjiao of the Karasuma people, and when he was a child, he walked on the territory of the Han people, and he always had an ambition in his heart.
The Karasuma people must be taken out of the prairie where birds don't lay eggs.
"Who dares to use us as gunmen?" Su Fuyan was furious.
"The princes of the Central Plains dare!"
He stood up, his eyes were burning and shining, and an ambition emanated from his whole body, and he said proudly: "If we Karasuma people want to be strong, we need to learn from the Goguryeo people and have our own dynasty, only by taking Youzhou, we will have the ability to gain a foothold, so we will take Jicheng at any cost, but we must not make wedding dresses for others!" ”
Around Karasuma, whether it is Xianbei or Xiongnu, it is a tribe after all, and only Goguryeo can be regarded as a real dynasty.
Goguryeo is inferior to the Karasuma people in some ways, but their cohesion surpasses that of Uwanru.
If Karasuma wants to be strong, he needs to have a foundation, and even if he plunders every year, it is only a temporary strength.
His ambition was to establish a kingdom in Karasuma, and before that, Youzhou was the territory he had to capture.
"Got it!" Su Fuyan nodded, and finally pondered, his eyes showed a trace of worry, and he couldn't help but say: "Lord Shan Yu, we have inquired before, there are tens of thousands of elites from the territory of Wu Country, but now they are not here, where will they appear?" ”
"It doesn't matter where it is, the people of the Central Plains often say, become a king and lose a villain!"
There was a touch of determination on his face, his eyes were shining, and his body exuded a powerful momentum: "As long as we take Jicheng, my Karasuma tribe will be able to lay a great foundation!" ”
He knew what Wu Jun was up to, but now he was riding a tiger, either to create a foundation for Karasuma or to make Karasuma's tribe disappear into history. (To be continued......)
