Chapter 1059: The Wind Rises in the Decisive Battle of Kanto
In early summer in June, the temperature gradually gets hotter.
This night, the night is bright, and the moon is in the sky.
A bright moonlight is reflected in the pass of Xiaoguan in Xuzhou, presenting a quiet atmosphere, and the Wei soldiers patrolling back and forth on the city are in unison, and the order is clear.
"General, it's late at night, why didn't you go to Guancheng if you didn't go to rest?"
A captain on duty suddenly looked at the main general Gao Lan on the city, a little hesitant, hurriedly greeted him, and asked respectfully: "Is there any urgent military situation?" ”
"There's no military information, it's just that a certain family can't sleep tonight, so I'll take a look!"
Gao Ran was wearing battle armor, holding a spear in his hand, wearing a military uniform, followed by dozens of personal soldiers, striding on the city wall, he looked at the captain, and said with a smile: "Although there is no major battle in Xuzhou at present, there is a quiet everywhere, but in Taishan County, a tragic battle has been launched, the Wu army's attack on Mount Tai and Qingzhou is strong, and it has the upper hand, but General Zang Ba is defending Mount Tai, so that they can not advance half a step, it is difficult to ensure that they will not be whimsical at this time, and attack us Xiao Guan, The intention is to open the defense line on the east side of our Great Wei, so we can't relax here! ”
He Gao Ran is also a fierce general, as the former Jin general, although his ability to lead troops is indeed not weak, he is also one of the best among the generals of the Wei army, no worse than the likes of Xu Huang and others.
However, because Zhang He was the first to lead among the generals of the Jin Kingdom, he was the first to surrender, and he was not very valued by Cao Cao.
When the Kwantung War began, he had been guarding Xuzhou.
Originally, Xuzhou was also a frontier battlefield, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command came from Youshanwei, and Zang Ba coordinated between the north and south to defend Xuzhou, but with the battle of Qingzhou and Yuzhou. His troops were pulled away by reinforcements from Yuzhou and Taishan, and Xuzhou was deserted.
But as a general guarding the Xuzhou frontier, he couldn't walk away.
After all, Xuzhou is now a frontier, and it also needs a general to guard it, so his identity is a bit tragic, and he can only be shelved in Xuzhou in the end. Let's talk about watching this big battle without incident.
"Isn't the general a little worried?"
When the captain heard this, he smiled, he didn't care very much, and hurriedly said: "At present, the Wu army has spread out several battlefields, they lack troops, and our Xiaoguan City has thick walls, easy to defend and difficult to attack, although there are only 3,000 soldiers and horses in the pass, but there are no tens of thousands of soldiers in Eastern Wu. It is difficult to form a strong offensive momentum, the soldiers and horses in Xuzhou have been pulled to Qingzhou and the Taishan battlefield, where did they come from so many troops? ”
"That being said, but the water is impermanent, the soldiers are impermanent, and now the decisive battle in the Kanto region is imminent, the Eastern Wu is strong, and our troops are weak. Let's be careful, there's nothing wrong with that! ”
Gao Lan can become the former Hebei Four Courtyard Pillars. The humerus general of the Jin State naturally has his outstanding ability, he is cautious by nature, compared with several other generals who are good at attacking or attacking and defending, he is a guard.
Now Xuzhou is very quiet, it is this silence. Let him, a veteran of the battlefield, instinctively feel a trace of unease.
But there's nothing wrong with that.
So he can only be more careful and not let Dongwu have the slightest chance.
"Captain!"
At this time, a Wei soldier suddenly came in a hurry, and his expression was a little flustered.
"Panic, what's going on?"
The captain of the city guard looked at the soldier and asked.
"Captain. None of the scouts we usually sent out to the city to train have come back today! It was a scout officer, and he said in a deep voice, "The last general thinks there is fraud in it!" ”
"What?"
When Gao Ran heard this, his expression suddenly became solemn, he turned his head, looked at the scout officer with a cold gaze, and asked, "Fan Ping, when will the regular scouts you usually discharge return?" ”
"General Huiyu, our scout training city wall is ten miles in radius, and it is divided into two groups overnight, the first group is out in the evening, before the sub-hour, it must be put back, but now it is after the sub-hour, and my second group of scouts is sent, and none of them have returned!"
"Damn it!"
Gao Ran raised his head, looked at the black outside the city, his eyes burst out with a touch of coldness, and shouted: "One didn't come back was an accident, and if they didn't come back, they were killed, pass on my military order, beat the drum immediately, the whole army gathered, all went to the city gate, and prepared to fight!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, in the distance outside the city, a piece of torch light suddenly appeared, and these torches formed a phalanx, reflecting half of the sky, which was extremely bright.
"Da Da Da !!!"
As this firelight approached, the footsteps sounded neatly under the heavy sound, approaching the city wall step by step, looking at it, the black pressure was overwhelming, as if there were thousands of troops.
"How so?"
"The battle flag of the Wu army, this is all the Wu army!"
"Looking at the situation, at least there are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and there is no telling what is going on, how can we fight?"
At this moment, the Wei troops at the head of the city became a little panicked one by one.
"Don't be afraid!"
Gao Ran looked calm, held a spear in his hand, stood at the forefront, and shouted: "We will defend the city, and within three days, there will be reinforcements!" ”
"Shoot the arrows!"
A long roar from the main general of the city penetrated through the nine heavens, tearing through the void of the night and breaking the quiet sky.
"The bow and arrow regiment is out and ready to ...... Put! ”
Ding was ordered to personally lead the bow and arrow regiment under his command, take a step forward, and then aim at the sky above the city wall, bend the bow and pull the arrow, and personally shoot the first arrow, which started this battle.
Woohoo......
One by one, the arrows shot out of the string, showing parabolic lines, like a piece of black pressure, falling towards the city.
"Wind, put it back!"
"Woo Woo Woo ......"
"Put it again!"
"Woo Woo Woo ......"
The Wu army's round after round bow and arrow attacks were extremely fierce, without the slightest temptation, and it was a violent battle when they came up.
"Attack!"
After nearly ten rounds of bow and arrow attacks in a row, the Wei army was pressed under the battlements at the head of the city, and after not daring to take the lead, the division commander Singh, took the lead and personally launched the attack.
"Get in!"
"Kill!"
"Boys, rush!"
The Wu army slaughtered under the pass in one go, began to build a ladder, and then launched a strong offensive, and the soldiers rushed forward to charge at this pass.
"I'm going to be the first to enter the city, sons, fight for the honor of the first regiment of our eighty-first division, and fight in!" Ling Tong rushed to the front line, and he stared at the pass in front of him, as if he wanted to swallow it in one gulp.
He and Ding Feng are both descendants of Tai Shici's training, and they are the regiment commanders as soon as they enter the Western Expeditionary Corps.
"Kill it!"
In fact, many of the soldiers of the Guishan people listened to different Chinese, but under the leadership of the Wu officers, they still understood how to charge, and they charged forward one by one.
"Who are these things?" Gao Ran's face turned pale, and the Wu army attacking under the city was obviously not from the Central Plains, and the physiognomy of these people was fundamentally alien.
"What a Soochow, actually fighting with a foreign race!"
Gao Ran suddenly understood why Dongwu suddenly had such a strong force, at this juncture, to capture Xiao Guan, he gritted his teeth, and could only hold on to the death at present: "The sons and daughters of Great Wei, behind Xiao Guan, is the hinterland of our Great Wei, Yanzhou and Yuzhou, now the success or failure of Great Wei, in our hands, fighting for Great Wei, we must defend the city at all costs!" ”
"Defend the city!"
"Defend the city!"
Gao Ran personally boosted morale and guarded the first line, which greatly boosted the morale of the Wei army and broke out with extraordinary combat effectiveness and defended the city wall.
A bloody battle broke out in the night. (To be continued.) )
