7. Break the city
. Shumilou.CoM.Shumilou.Co
For Fan County, the Yellow Turban team that suddenly crossed the river was unexpected, but in the past two years, the Yellow Turban thieves and the Black Mountain thieves have been endless, and Yanzhou East County in the north of the Yellow River has also suffered from it.
Gengen held a military meeting, this time even the commander-level generals were summoned, and Deng Ji participated in the military meeting for the first time, but he was soft-spoken, and he had no right to speak.
There is not much food left in this yellow turban, if there is nothing left, it will not be long before everyone can only go hungry, the captains and marquis speak indiscriminately, and their opinions are divided into two factions, one faction thinks that the county town is not easy to gnaw, and if it is attacked, the casualties will be serious, it is better to turn to plunder the surrounding villages; The other faction believes that although the county town is difficult to attack, the harvest is also greater, and after more than two years of chaos, the four fields are depressed, and the harvest of plundering villages is not big.
Although Deng Ji was an old moth thief, it was the first time for him to participate in such a military meeting, and when he saw that the scene was chaotic and there was no discipline, he quickly saw the difference between grass and soldiers.
There were many people who spoke, but in the end it was Shan Gen who took the idea, and he finally decided to compromise the situation: fight a dozen first, it is best to fight down, and if it doesn't work, he will go to plunder the villages of Siye instead.
The general tone is set, and then it is necessary to decide who will attack the city, and in the past two years, the officers and soldiers have suffered so many losses, and the generals still know a lot about the battle formation, and they all know that the casualties will be heavy if they attack the city, and it is not a good errand to fight on weekdays, so they began to blame each other, and even Liu Mandao, who was the first powerful, was unwilling to take human lives to fill in.
After several discussions, the final siege task fell on the new group of Shitun, anyway, they are all Yongqiu people who have just joined, and they will be added after they die, and as new pawns, they urgently need to see blood and hone it.
"!" In the back corner, Deng Ji had to spit out a swear word.
In the past two years, in order to save his own life, Deng Ji has done everything, and he has only been the head of the tun for two or three days, and he has to be called by others to go to the front desperately, which is really embarrassing.
The Yellow Turban was originally not strictly disciplined, but it was not easy to disobey the military order at this time, and when the military discussion was over, Deng Ji walked out dejectedly, Xu Dumu came over to comfort him, and there was always some schadenfreude on his expression.
The siege of the city must at least have a cloud ladder, and the battle array is dangerous, but the people of Yongqiu had two full meals yesterday, and they were quite enthusiastic about making a cloud ladder, and they were soon built, and the army was opened, and the noon array besieged Fan County.
The city wall of the county town is not high, and the defenders are only five or six hundred people, and the old moths and thieves all know that if the time is delayed for a long time, the big families in the city will send troops to assist the officers and soldiers to defend the city.
There were people feints on the other three sides, the new group of Shitun was ordered to attack the west city wall with all their might, Tian Xiaokan's army shouted loudly, Deng Jitun had to take Fang Meng and Guo Shi two only pawns, forty auxiliary soldiers, and carried two ladders to follow him and charge forward.
Entering the firing range, the defenders on the city wall bent their bows and arrows, and suddenly the arrows were like flying locusts, bringing up several bloody places among the besiegers. Screams rang out from time to time, some people fell to the ground, some people howled, the Yongqiu people were all honest farmers more than a month ago, few of them had been in battle, a few of them were weak and wanted to slip away, and they were cut down to the ground by the Qiangen personal guard cavalry before they took a few steps back.
"Ahh
The screams also sounded behind Deng Ji, who were two unlucky auxiliary soldiers, one was injured in the shoulder and could scream loudly, and the other was shot in the chest and fell with an arrow in the chest, seeing that he was not alive.
"Damn!" The subordinates were terrified, Deng Ji had finally been on many battlefields, although he was also terribly scared, but he had to use his sharp voice to cheer loudly: "General Yigen has a supervisor behind us, and if you retreat, you will die!" Human life is as cheap as a dog, and if you want to live, follow Lao Tzu! ”
Deng Ji's voice was as loud and spiky as ever, overshadowing the surrounding cries in the shouting of killing.
Fang Meng and Guo Shi followed closely behind Deng Ji, although the auxiliary soldiers were reluctant, they also knew that there were still six hundred generals standing behind them, and they also saw that the latter was cut down, and there was a way to survive forward, so they had no choice but to carry the ladder on their shoulders and follow behind with wooden sticks and hoes.
"Shoot!"
Immediately behind the besiegers, there were only more than 500 archers in the whole army, and when they entered the firing range, they began to shoot at the head of the city under the cover of swords and shields, reducing the pressure on the besieging soldiers.
The archers at the head of the city were drawn away, and the besiegers let go of their feet and rushed to the city walls with all their might.
The first few ladders that began to build the city wall were quickly overturned by the defenders with poles, and then the boulders fell down, and there were immediately casualties under the city wall.
Today's situation is different from the past, and he can't tolerate desertion and cunning anymore, Deng Ji holds a gun in his left hand and an axe in his right hand, and he should climb the ladder first.
On another ladder in Deng Jitun, Fang Meng was the first to climb.
As soon as people climbed the ladder, there were officers and soldiers on the city wall who noticed the ladder on this side, some people shouted loudly, and some people directly took the pole to fork, fortunately, the city wall was only three zhang high, Deng Ji's right hand shook hard, and the axe rotated and flew out, and the front door of the officers and soldiers with the pole in the middle, but I don't know whether the axe was split or the wooden handle hit, the officers and soldiers wailed and hugged the door and fell, and the pole fell from the wall.
Without the hand axe, Deng Ji freed his hand, climbed faster, and "whew", but this time there were officers and soldiers holding huge stones and throwing them down, Deng Ji hurriedly picked them away with his gun, and saw that he was about to fall on the heads of the escalator and auxiliary soldiers, and a huge wooden stick flew out of thin air, "bumping" the stone open, but it was Guo Shi.
After three or two strokes, Deng Ji had already climbed to the top of the wall, and the second pole of the officers and soldiers had also arrived, but he was gently picked open by Deng Ji's spear, turned over and jumped into the city wall.
Seeing that Deng Ji was the first to kill on the wall, Tian Mazi couldn't help but beat his thigh hard, half of the new group of ten tuns was under his command, if he could break the city, it should be his subordinates, but seeing Deng Ji on the city wall, he still couldn't help but be excited, and shouted: "General Qigen has an order, those who enter the city first will be rewarded, Tian Xiaokan, hurry up and rush up to Lao Tzu!" ”
The new group of Wutun returned to Tian Mazi's nephew Tian Xiaokanjun under the command of the marquis, and he was busy ordering the rest of the Zhutun to storm the city wall, and several ladders fought desperately, so that the officers and troops were unprepared everywhere, and some people climbed to the top of the city one after another, and the archers on both sides were useless.
The officers and soldiers of Fan County were caught off guard, but they didn't expect to be able to break it with one drum, and they hurriedly shouted: "The whole army breaks the city!" ”
The personal soldiers of the root department are the most elite of this yellow turban, half of them are heavy armored cavalry, and when he heard his words, more than 600 cavalry shouted in unison: "Break the city!" ”
The yellow scarves used in this shouting feint are used to fighting with the wind.,The city wall has been breached.,There's no need to give an order at all.,It's been pouring to the city wall like a tide.。
Deng Ji went to the top of the city, the defenders wanted to force him down, four or five officers and soldiers around him were dressed in two crotch armor, red eyes rushed together, Deng Ji shook the spear in his hand, stabbed the nearest officers and soldiers, jumped into the city wall, and tried to keep the ladder from losing.
His marksmanship is not weak, and he moves freely at the head of the city to dodge, swinging away the attacking swords and guns, but there are many officers and soldiers, and it is not easy to get rid of them completely.
"Good hand axe!"
The left and right branches were a little embarrassed, Fang Meng also came up from another cloud ladder, and after a thumbs up, the short figure danced with a gun, and in the blink of an eye, he stabbed the two of them, and immediately relieved Deng Ji.
The two of them were converging, their spears cooperating in front and back, back to back, and they actually gained a firm foothold on the city wall.
"Get out of the way, come some!"
The longer the time dragged on, the more unfavorable it was to the officers and soldiers, and some people behind them shouted angrily, and rushed into the battle circle with swords and shields.
The new officers and soldiers were burly enough, seven feet eight inches tall, with a beard like a hedgehog, different from others, but wearing armor, hearing his voice, the surrounding sergeants really got out of the way, he approached, and the steel knife slashed straight at the front of the square.
The wind brought by the blade was powerful, Fang Meng was taken aback, he didn't dare to resist with a gun, he took a step back and got out of the way, and was immediately entangled by the officers and soldiers behind him.
With a knife to force Fang Meng back, the heavily armored officer raised his shield to block the spear stabbed by Deng Ji with a "dang" sound, and then turned around, and the steel knife of the ring knife smeared Deng Ji's throat.
Deng Ji hurriedly turned over behind him, and before he could get up, a huge force came from his body, but he was hit hard by the officer with his shield, and he took two steps back.
Before Deng Ji could stand firmly, the officer was unforgiving, and he slashed fiercely in the face, Deng Ji had to twist his body to avoid the vital point, stabbed out the spear in his hand, and went straight to the officer's door.
This shot was once again blocked by the shield "dang", and his left shoulder hurt, but it was already wiped by the blade, and blood flowed immediately.
The officer raised the knife and then chopped, Deng Ji hurriedly raised the gun to resist, the three days were unfavorable, after the blade, the gun in his hand "clicked" and split into two, breaking the third handle.
Fortunately, Fang Meng assassinated the entangled officers and soldiers, and turned around and shot the heavily armored sword and shield soldier to turn around to save himself, and Deng Ji picked up his life.
Deng Ji was injured, and encouraged the two of them to fight with Fang Meng, so that they could fight to a draw, but there were more and more Yellow Turban troops climbing on the ladder, and they fought with the surrounding officers and soldiers, the speed was too fast, and the city had not yet seen the big family troops to help, and the defeat of the officers and soldiers was decided.
Guo Shi smashed through the surrounding crowd, and when he leaned over, he saw that Deng Ji and Fang Meng were fighting against the officer, and he raised his hand to fight, and the heavy armor sword and shield hand saw that it was fierce, and he was not in a hurry, so he hurriedly used the shield to block, and the stick and shield struck each other, and the sword and shield soldiers suddenly burst into tears, and the iron shield fell to the ground with a "pound".
Fang Meng saw the opportunity, raised his gun and stabbed directly, the heavy armor soldier returned to the knife to stand it, Deng Ji drew half a spear to fight, he jumped away, Guo Shi's huge wooden stick smashed again, left and right, so he was not embarrassed, and then parried with both hands, and was smashed on the shoulder by Guo Shi's stick, spitting blood and falling out.
