While enjoying peace in various parts of Liaodong, there was a life-and-death struggle under the city of Guzang. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The 30,000 Liaodong Army, under the command of Beigong Chun, slowly approached the Guzang City Wall with neat steps.

From a distance, the entire Liaodong Army formation was horizontal and vertical, and there was only the sound of boastful footsteps in the entire sky.

This scene fell in the eyes of the people of Liangzhou, and they were shocked.

"Lord Governor, the army has been lined up and is ready to attack at any time."

"Well, I know, let the generals be ready, listen to my orders, and attack at any time."

Beigong Chun nodded, and continued to squint at the dense military formation in the distance. Every time I see the Liaodong Army out of battle, I will feel a feeling of emotion and shock in my heart.

In Liaodong, the Great Sima attached great importance to cultivating the momentum of the army, and always emphasized that the loser on the battlefield could not lose the battle, so even if the number of people was far inferior to the opponent, the Liaodong army would overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum.

When the Liaodong army marched to a distance of 300 steps from the city wall, it stopped, which was the most suitable distance for large bed crossbows and ballistae in the Liaodong army.

As the Liaodong Army stopped moving, some middle and low-level generals began to issue pre-battle orders, and a crossbow with a bed and a ballista were ready for firing.

Beigong Chun glanced at the Liangzhou civil and military forces on the city wall with some disappointment, turned around and instructed Fu Hong beside him: "Captain Fu, you go forward to sweep the formation, and then preach the will of the Son of Heaven, and ask Liangzhou on the other side if it surrenders?" ”

"If the people of Liangzhou still don't know what to do, the army will attack immediately. Suppress the enemy with crossbowmen, then attack with sword and shield men to break through the walls in the shortest possible time, with cavalry on both wings to intercept the fleeing enemy. ”

"No!" After receiving the order, the generals rode away one after another and went to their respective positions.

Fu Hong took the lead, rode his horse through the army quickly, and ran all the way to the foot of Guzang City.

As soon as he pulled the reins in his hand, the front hooves of the war horse were raised high, and he shouted to the people on the city wall: "A certain is the commander under the command of the governor of Qinzhou, and he was ordered to come to interrogate." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Mao frowned and asked Song Pei beside him: "Isn't Fu Hong the leader of the Di chieftain?" Why did you become the captain of the Liaodong Army again? ”

"The lord didn't know that when the Liaodong army entered Qinzhou in the west, it was fiercely resisted by the Di people, and Fu Hong surrendered to Liaodong only after the failure of the army. Da Sima has always had a habit of using Hulu, such as Nengchen, Duan Wenyang, Yao Yizhong, etc., all of whom are famous Hu generals in Liaodong. ”

"Da Sima is really eclectic and talented!" Zhang Mao couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, in Liaodong, whether it is a scholar from a poor family or a child of a family, as long as he is talented, he will be reused."

After seeing the neat military appearance of the Liaodong Army, Zhang Mao became more and more worried about the future of this battle, and couldn't help asking: "Lord Changshi, do you think we can hold Guzang in this battle?" ”

Song Pei heard Zhang Mao's question, and looked at the Liangzhou soldiers next to him, and his heart was gloomy. To be honest, before he saw the Liaodong Army, Song Pei was still a little confident, but when he saw the Liaodong Army in front of him, the little confidence in his heart had long disappeared without a trace.

"The minister can only do his best!" In the face of the famous Liaodong Army, Song Pei did not dare to pack tickets.

Just when Zhang Mao and Song Pei were whispering, they saw Fu Hong shouting: "The two generations of the Zhang family have made great contributions to the management of Liangzhou, and the Son of Heaven specially decreed that Zhang Yu's son Jun should be the Duke of Liangguo, in order to commend the Zhang family's merits!" Now Liaodong has received the land of eight counties and forty-six counties of Liangzhou by the will of the Son of Heaven, and it is hoped that the people of Liangzhou will obey the order and not make unnecessary resistance. ”

I don't know how long it took for Song Peicai at the head of the city to respond on behalf of Liangzhou, "The Zhang family has been in charge of Liangzhou for nearly 20 years, and hundreds of thousands of people in Liangzhou have survived because of the protection of the Zhang family!" Today, Zhang Zhoumu unfortunately died, and the imperial court did not read the public opinion of Liangzhou, and insisted on letting Da Sima take over as Liangzhou Mu, which really made Liangzhou feel cold. ”

"Alas! I really don't shed tears when I don't see the coffin! Seeing that Liangzhou insisted on not wanting to be tied, Beigong Chun shook his head and regretted.

Beigong Chun raised his eyes and found that the crossbowmen were ready to fire, and then he pulled out the ring knife on his waist with a loud roar: "Ballista, fire!" ”

"Whoosh!" With Beigong Chun's order, the stones were mixed with the whistling sound of breaking the air, and smashed violently towards the head of Guzang City like raindrops.

Suddenly, there was a wail on the head of the city, and many unprepared Liangzhou soldiers were caught off guard, and some unlucky people were directly smashed, and their heads were smashed all of a sudden, and the soldiers died before they had time to react.

"Ahh The bloody scene in front of them frightened many Liangzhou soldiers to throw away the guys in their hands directly, or turn away, or squatting in the corner with their heads in their hands, their whole bodies trembling, and even yelling and screaming were frightened to the point of insanity.

And the surviving Liangzhou soldiers were also frightened and pale, and bean-sized sweat particles continued to drip down their cheeks, and there was no trace of war.

Even Zhang Mao, who was in the battle formation, did not expect that the Liaodong Army would lose hundreds of people in just one round of ballista strikes, and most of the rest of the soldiers were also frightened.

As the ballista completed the strike task, it was the turn of the bed crossbow to carry out a covering attack, the rate of fire was obviously much faster than just now, and the crossbow arrows were like endless rain curtains, constantly pouring down on the city wall, pressing the Liangzhou soldiers to raise their heads.

Although the power of the bed crossbow during the siege is not as great as that of the ballista, the emphasis is on the ease of firing, the number is huge, and each covering launch is always like a dark cloud, and the deterrent power it brings is extraordinary, once the crossbow arrow is shot, few people survive.

Originally, siege warfare required lives to be filled, and it was a very energy-consuming and material-intensive thing.

For example, attacking a fortified city like Guzang in front of you, if it is not with the help of various siege machinery, even if it is as strong as the Liaodong Army, it will take more than a month to see it.

However, since the development of Liaodong's 'Kit Kat Skills', crossbowmen have been equipped with a variety of siege equipment, which has greatly reduced the difficulty of siege and reduced the loss of soldiers.

Normally, as long as the ballista and bed crossbow blast the city wall for a while, the enemy will almost collapse, and the rest will only need to go up and pick up the remnants of the enemy.

The Liangzhou soldiers were almost beaten and collapsed by the ballista and the bed crossbow, and when the bed crossbow attacked, hundreds of Liangzhou soldiers fell on the city wall, and their morale dropped to the lowest.

Watching their companions fall one after another, the Liangzhou soldiers couldn't help but feel empty, they were really completely shocked by the momentum displayed by the Liaodong Army.

Seeing that the time was ripe for siege, Beigong Chunyi waved his spear and shouted: "Attack!" ”

Soon the war drums sounded, and the five-compartment sword and shield soldiers began to slowly press towards Gu Zang.

Each sword and shield soldier held a round shield in his left hand, protecting the vital parts of his body, carrying a ring-headed knife at his waist, and dragging a ladder in his right hand under the cover of crossbow arrows, and climbed up quickly with skillful movements.

"Kill!" As soon as the sword and shield soldiers climbed the city wall, they pulled out the ring-headed knife from their waists and shouted at the Liangzhou soldiers.

Immediately, the two sides engaged in a fierce fight.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Liangzhou soldiers had not yet come to their senses, the Liaodong Army captured a large area of the city at once and suppressed the main Liangzhou soldiers to the death.

"Use the hand crossbow first!" The Liaodong Army did not play cards according to the routine at all, and as soon as Pu stood firm, he came up with a burst of crossbow arrows. I saw that each soldier of the Liaodong Army was holding a repeating crossbow in his hand, and in an instant, five rounds of crossbow arrows were shot, and a large number of Liangzhou soldiers were wiped out head-on. made Zhang Mao and the others, who were watching the battle behind, tremble when they saw it.

Fu Hong, who rushed to the forefront, was really like a tiger descending the mountain, a big knife danced like a windmill, sweeping and splitting, and all the Liangzhou soldiers around him fell to the ground.

As the fierce general Fu Hong still entered a no-man's land, the Liangzhou soldiers on the city wall were gradually divided, and the situation gradually changed to favor the Liaodong side. Although the strength of the Liaodong Army on the city wall was far inferior to that of the Liangzhou soldiers, Fu Hong's force was too amazing, and none of the entire Liangzhou generals had the ability to compete with it, which led to the Liaodong Army, which had very few troops, to suppress the main Liangzhou soldiers.

Seeing Fu Hong's invincible appearance on the city wall, Zhang Mao's face turned pale with anger, and he couldn't help but look around and ask, "Which one is going to meet that Fu Hong with me?" ”

Most of the Liangzhou generals' faces changed miserably when they heard this, and they didn't dare to look directly at Zhang Mao's expectant eyes.

Just when Zhang Mao was disappointed, he saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old doll general standing next to him.

"The last will go!" I saw him kneeling on one knee in front of Zhang Mao and asking for his life. (To be continued.) )
