Chapter 0407 - Too Strong

The viscous black liquid emitted a strong, pungent smell, and fell from the top of the city, spilling all over the ground at the foot of the wall, accumulating too much, and slowly squirming into the lower depressions. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Many soldiers of the Jingnan Army on the wooden ladder were drenched, and they were surprised to find that it was not hot, and suddenly saw a torch thrown down from the city, and this black liquid instantly bounced up a layer of blue flames, emitting thick heat, and spreading everywhere at a rapid speed.

The soldiers instantly became burning men, screaming and roaring, and rolled down the flaming wooden ladder in a string, but there was also a sea of fire below, and there was nowhere to hide.

Many soldiers fell and rolled on the ground, but the flames could not be extinguished, their robes burned quickly, the iron armor was hot, and the inner cowhide crackled, emitting a stench of burning.

The rapidly burning sea of fire interrupted the formation of the city, and the more than 1,000 soldiers who went to the north of the city were unable to follow up at once, and had to fight desperately to resist the siege of the Tibetan soldiers.

Choking...... The way forward was blocked, the Chinese army had to withdraw its troops, and the thousands of Jingjing troops who had time to enter the city in the future retreated like a tide, Li Hui looked at the city leader and wanted to crack, but he was helpless.

The north city wall is still flat to attack the city, and the east city wall is even worse, not only the wooden ladder and the cloud ladder are all on fire, but the foot of the city is also a wall of fire, and the fierce fire oil poured down from the city head flows into the river, and the water surface is also full of fire that is as high as the master, and the fierce flames soon ignite the trestle bridge.

"Kerosene? Diesel fuel...... Wrong! It's crude oil! Damn it, you actually struck me......" Zhang Yue couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw the fire from afar, he snorted suddenly, and suddenly smelled a familiar smell, and couldn't help but grit his teeth, shocked and angry.

"Report! The former army's siege of the city was blocked, please ask for instructions on whether to retreat? A herald galloped to the front of the rear army, jumped off his horse and ran over to ask for orders.

"Drive!" When Zhang Yue heard the report, he was furious, and suddenly clamped the horse's belly between his legs, threw off the herald and rushed straight to the front, and trotted along the riverbank behind the retreating soldiers, and found that although the wooden ladder and the cloud ladder were on fire, the fire was very big, and these instruments were made very tightly, and they were still burning for a while.

The wall of fire under the city, which was more than a crowd, looked terrifying, but it began to thin out. And the fire on the surface of the river, as the grease did not flow down, also weakened a lot. Seeing that the attack can be continued, I don't know if the enemy has any crude oil down.

Seeing that Zhang Yue ran to the front, Xuan Chongwen also followed with a horse, and his face was a little unpleasant. But he heard Zhang Yue wave his hand violently, and shouted coldly with a calm face: "Order!" Send more troops to continue the attack, the crossbowmen will shoot non-stop to cover, open the city gate for me in half an hour, and the whole army will plunder for a day! ”

"Order!" Xuan Chongwen was taken aback, his eyes widened, Zhang Yue was relatively kind-hearted in the image, he never indulged the soldiers in looting and killing, and he never disturbed the people on the march, and now he actually issued such a military order. However, he also understood the deep meaning of this, mainly for the long-term control and governance in the future. At that moment, Le Ma turned around and returned to the team, and then sent a herald to order the commanders of each regiment to organize troops to launch a rapid onslaught.

Zhang Yue hit his horse and returned to the rear army, and transferred three infantry regiments to reinforce the front, and now the soldiers knew the commander's determination, and immediately shouted and roared, ready to fight hard. At this time, Li Hui's department, which was attacking the northern city wall, sent people to inspect, and Zhang Yue sent the herald back and ordered Li Hui to attack again.

The Zhou army roared like a tsunami, and increased its strength to continue to attack the city, and the Zhou army that landed in the city first had not been completely encircled and suppressed, and saw that the follow-up was about to catch up, which surprised Wen Fan, and quickly ordered the soldiers on standby under the city to transport the remaining 100 barrels of fierce fire oil up, so as to wait for the Zhou army to come up and fall again, and ordered Yingchengsky to lead the remaining 6,000 people to prepare reinforcements.

After a while, the Zhou army carried the wooden ladder and trotted across the trestle bridge again, and set up the head of the city and then attached the ants to attack the city. Other soldiers climbed the ladder again, gritting their teeth in the smoke and fire.

"Brethren! Rush with me! Those who can't climb the city are raised by their mothers and maids......" One of the heads of the capital shouted and cursed, and then jumped up the ladder almost in a rushing manner, holding a large shield in his hand, and muttering a waist knife in his mouth, and leaping up quickly.

The entire city wall was covered with wooden ladders, and rows of soldiers poured down the ladders like centipedes to the top of the city, and the soldiers who had not yet been killed and wounded in the city took the opportunity to meet in front of the broken battlements at the head of the city, and the soldiers finally climbed to the top of the city again.

And the soldiers did the same trick again, lifting the big wooden barrel to appear at the head of the city, but immediately attracted a dense rain of arrows from the crossbowmen under the city, and suddenly the big wooden barrel overturned at the head of the city, and the black liquid flowed all over the ground, and was instantly ignited by the fire that was still burning on the soldiers of the Zhou army, and the city also caught fire, which also caused huge trouble to the soldiers.

The fire at the head of the city was in Manyan, and the towers and some wooden instruments began to catch fire, but they didn't take care of it. The soldiers tried to pour the oil down once, but each time they were blocked by the crossbows, and the fire gradually became bigger and bigger as the fierce fire oil overturned on the city.

The soldiers resisted desperately, and with the reinforcements sent by Yingchengsky, the battle became more and more fierce, and the two sides launched a bloody battle to the death in Dongchengtou. Although the Tibetan people have a lot of troops, but there is no way to defend the city, horizontal and vertical are those few things, rolling wood and stones and pouring urine and feces, but there is no way to show their heads in front of the battlements, some soldiers do not know what weapons to use, where to transfer, resulting in more and more Zhou troops on the head of the city.

Half an hour later, Shi Chenghong, who was brave and good at fighting, finally led his team to capture the city wall and open the city gate.

Zhang Yue saw it a mile away, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and transferred the 5,000 soldiers of the second brigade behind him, and ordered Gao Changhai and Shang Huaqing to lead their troops into the city, disperse the troops to fight, and gradually wipe out the remnants of the Tibetan people.

With the breakthrough of the eastern city wall, the soldiers of the head of the northern city followed the great rout, scattered and fled down the city, and Li Hui of the Jingnan army also led his troops into the city, chasing and killing from the north city to the south, and the battle lasted for a whole day, and it did not stop until the evening of the same day.

In the afternoon of that day, Bian Ji, Ming Jinpeng, and Hao Tianying led 5,000 people to bypass Shanzhou City, and then crossed the Huangshui again, and pounced on the thirsty donkey ridge from the north bank.

In order not to delay the time and delay the fighters, Bian Ji sent Ming Jinpeng to lead 1,000 cavalry to continue westward, rushing to the Thirsty Donkey Ridge to seize Tiekou Fort, and with 4,000 cavalry from his headquarters, he lined up in the open place of the Huangshui River Valley, and after a while, Khenblang Wang got up.

Separated by three or four miles, the strength of the Bian Ji horse team was slightly smaller, and Khambrang divided 2,000 troops to outflank from the left and right, and the Chinese army of 5,000 cavalry rushed into the attack, and led 1,000 cavalry to watch the battle on a slope.

Bian Ji couldn't help sneering when he saw it, and said to Hao Tianying: "The Chinese army's breakthrough is handed over to Feng Shouxin, Wang Quanbin of the Changyi Army, and Yao Keding, these people are also rare generals, and they can take on this responsibility!" How about you and I each lead a hundred horsemen, and see who catches the chief first? ”

"Hah! Alright! Although your stick is strong, but the iron rod is too strong and too laborious, I advise you to use a light root in the future! Hao Tianying is one of the few fierce generals under Zhang Yue, and the only ones who can fight with him are Zhang Yue and Xuan Chongwen, who have gradually become known as the first fierce general of the Ma Army, and he has his pride.

"It's up to you to teach, when the old man debuted in the green forest, your junior was still wearing open crotch pants!" Bian snorted disdainfully, sent an order to Feng Guoxin and Wang Quanbin, and led a hundred horses to leave the team, and waited outside the battlefield.

The two sides quickly trotted and accelerated their charge, and the horses rushed up from a distance, and the echelon gradually became thinner, but the cavalry with more troops seemed to be much closer, but this was only some illusion of vision caused by the advantage of numbers.

The horse's hooves trampled the earth and made a thunderous roar, and the soldiers shouted and urged the horses to gallop, approaching one hundred and fifty steps, one hundred steps, and fifty steps, plus the last round of armor penetrating cones, four consecutive rounds of blows, causing the horses to fall over one by one, and more than 2,000 horsemen and horses were submerged in an instant, disappearing in the rolling iron stream.

Seeing that their side was not defeated, Bian Ji and Hao Tianying each led a hundred horsemen to suddenly detour from the battlefield and rush towards Khambrang Wang's main formation, which was three or four miles away. Seeing it from afar, Khambrang hurriedly divided his troops to intercept it, but the horse team led by the two fierce generals was incomparable, and they were broken through in one shot.

Two rounds of 600 cavalry were sent in a row, but the two Zhou squads were only reduced by less than half, and they still rushed straight over, and soon approached 200 paces, Khambrang Wanwang was finally shocked by their rapid momentum, and hurriedly led the horse team to flee, which greatly reduced the morale of his own side that was still fighting on the battlefield.

Bian Ji and Hao Tianying chased wildly, caught up and covered up for a while, and did not stop, staring at Khambrang Wang to the east for more than 20 miles and finally approaching a hundred steps, seeing that the other party was about to rush up a gentle slope, Bian Ji and Hao Tianying glanced at each other, and at the same time took the horn bow on the horse's back, Zhang Bow each shot an arrow, and Khambrang fell off the horse in response.

The two of them hit their horses and caught up, and Bian Ji's iron rod was obliquely inserted into Khambrang who was shooting on his back and lifted under him, and there were indeed two white feather eagle arrows inserted in the back of his neck and left back, but the one on his left back was obviously not deep through the armor, revealing a long arrow shaft hanging down, and the other one shot a piercing.

"Haha...... Not bad! How do you say that handsome, Jiang is still old and spicy! Hao Tianying laughed sourly, but soon he couldn't laugh anymore, because there was another thunderous sound of horses' hooves in the distance to the east.

The two of them rushed uphill at the same time to look at the distance, only to see a horse team coming in the distance to the east, the formation was very scattered, and it ran a large area everywhere. As they got closer, both of them could see that it seemed that the defeated soldiers were fleeing west in panic.

"It seems that the city has been taken, hurry back to the battlefield and prepare to divide the troops, give him a head-on blow, maybe you can catch a big fish!" Bian was overjoyed, the two looked at each other, turned around, and ran back with Khambrang Wang's corpse. (To be continued.) )
