Chapter 161: The Overlord Iron Cavalry Attacked, Ji Ling Retreated!
At sunset, under the sunset, under the city of Shouchun, the battle of the day of fierce fighting began to stop, and the Yuan army, which had not been able to attack for a long time, retreated like a tide.
Yuan Jun, the camp of the Chinese army.
Ji Ling put his hands behind his back, standing in an important place, staring at a map of Jiujiang hanging with his eyes, his face was extremely gloomy, and the generals of the Yuan Army were lined up left and right behind him, a little silent, not daring to say anything.
"You really can, a whole army of 100,000 elites, after a month of fighting, you can't beat a city like Shouchun, what kind of face do you have to let a certain family go to see the lord." Ji Ling pondered for a long time before he pretended to come over, his burly body exuded a vicious aura, his eyes were like sharp knives, staring at the generals, and he drank coldly.
"The subordinates are incompetent!"
Everyone was suppressed by Ji Ling's momentum, and they were a little out of breath, so they hurriedly bowed their heads one by one and said in unison.
"Humph!"
Ji Ling flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly: "Starting tomorrow, attack again, if you can't capture Shouchun within five days, when you return to Runan, you will be dealt with by military law." ā
"General, our food can only last for three days at most." A logistics general suddenly stepped out and reported in a low voice.
"Three days?" Ji Ling squinted his eyes and asked, "What's the matter, if the grain and grass in Runan don't come, don't Xia Cai and Xiquyang have it, and it should be able to support it for at least ten days?" ā
"It's only been three days, the grain road in Yuzhou is not passable, and there are too many waterways near Shouchun, there is a small number of troops on the water, intercepting our grain road, and the grain and grass in Xia Cai and Xiquyang can't be sent." The logistics general nodded and said.
"How many troops do we have now?"
Ji Ling pondered for a moment, and Fang asked coldly.
"General, Shouchun City has consumed too many of our troops, except for the 10,000 troops stationed in Xia Cai, Ping'a, Yicheng, Xiquyang, and Dangtu, now our troops are only 60,000."
A Yuan military captain walked out and reported in a low voice.
"It's just over a month, and the entire 30,000 troops have been spent under this ancient city." Ji Ling raised his head and stared at Shouchun City in the distance outside the tent, his eyes were full of coldness: "Liu Miao is incompetent, I didn't expect that there is also Tai Shici, Sun Wentai, one day, a certain family will one day, and it will definitely set foot in the Jiangdong of Ruzhi." ā
"General, the high walls of Shouchun City are too strong, if we can't fight quickly, let's retreat to Xia Cai and think about it in the long run!" A middle-aged general, the way of mentioning yƬ.
"No way!"
Ji Ling said coldly: "No matter what, we must defeat Shouchun and take the entire Jiujiang, tens of thousands of sons died here, and a certain family can't let their sons die in battle without value." ā
"If it is those Jiujiang soldiers, it is naturally not a matter of concern, but now that the Jiangdong Army is here, it is not easy for us to break through Shouchun." The middle-aged general, sighed.
"What about the Jiangdong Army, within three days, a certain family will definitely take Jiujiang."
Ji Ling said categorically: "Starting tomorrow, the final onslaught on Shouchun City will be carried out, and at any cost, a certain family must break the city." ā
"No!"
Since Ji Ling has already decided, the generals have no choice but to be convinced, after all, they have always trusted Ji Ling, the first general of Yuan Shu.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Following.
Knock knock knock......
As soon as the sun's rays appeared, bursts of war drums full of endless murderous aura began to echo in Shouchun City, earth-shattering.
"Sons, just Shouchun, why stop us, we are invincible, kill!"
This time Ji Ling was really desperate, without a trace of reservation, a three-pointed and two-edged knife, taking the lead, inspired the last morale of the Yuan army, and tens of thousands of troops marched forward bravely, rushing to the city wall one after another.
"Kill!"
"Kill it!"
Under the city, a number of trebuchets, rushing cars, ladders, battering rams, again and again to impact the city gate, under the strong attack, the entire Shouchun City shook the mountain, as if shaking, and the city under a black pressure of the head of the surging people.
The courage of the soldiers, and now the Yuan army, which has been fought to the end of the mountain, under the leadership of Ji Ling, a super fierce general, has played a kind of lifeless momentum, with advance and no retreat, which seems extremely shocking.
"Jiujiang's son, block, a certain Tai Shi Ci, with you, kill the enemy!"
The Jiangdong Army led by Tai Shici and Zhou Tai blocked the front line of the city wall, so that these Jiujiang soldiers, who were already lacking in morale, would not be intimidated by this powerful momentum.
"Yu Mi is here, sons, kill!"
"Sun Shao is here, sons, kill!"
"Chen Heng is here, sons, kill!"
The only three remaining generals under Liu Miao's command also began to work hard at this time, and they knew that only by working hard could they keep Shouchun.
There is no strategy, both sides are fighting hard, fighting is a tenacity, who can insist, who is the winner, in the midst of bursts of war drums, fierce battles, so that the city wall in the south of Shouchun City is full of corpses, blood flowing.
ā¦ā¦
"Still defeated!"
Ji Ling wanted to bite his last breath and fight Shouchun with a tenacity, so this battle did not stop from the beginning, and it was fought for two days and one night.
It's a pity that it backfired, the huge casualties paid by the Yuan army, and the city head that was attacked three times was defeated three times, and the Jiujiang soldiers may not have the toughness, but the resilience of the Jiangdong army is not worse than their Yuan army, and even above them.
In particular, the example of the two generals, Tai Shici and Zhou Tai, gave the Jiujiang soldiers great confidence, and Yu Mi Sun, Shao and Chen Heng formed an unbreakable defense line.
"General, the sons can't hold on."
"General, I can't fight anymore!"
"General, our casualties are too great to survive."
Shrouded in the golden sunset, under the city of Shouchun, there was a mess, leaving tens of thousands of corpses, Yuan Jun was once again repulsed, and the morale that was finally condensed was dispelled, and one by one Yuan Jun was depressed and physically and mentally exhausted.
"Tai Shi Ci!"
Ji Ling's figure was a little gloomy, and his eyes stared hatefully at the top of the city, a burly figure, from between his teeth, called out this name.
If it weren't for Tai Shi Ci, this battle, Yuan Jun would have won, Tai Shi Ci was by no means an ordinary martial artist, this person's experience in leading troops may not be as good as his Ji Ling, but his command skills are definitely not under him.
"All rest, raise the pot to cook, tonight, retire to Cai!" Ji Ling's eyes were red, he glanced around at Yuan Jun, who was less than fifty thousand, and muttered for a moment, and spit out this sentence in an unwilling situation.
"No!"
When the generals heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief.
ā¦ā¦
"Knocked back!"
"Haha, we knocked them back!"
After this bloody battle, no matter what interval there was in the past, at this moment on the city wall, the soldiers of Jiujiang County and the Jiangdong Army put down their vigilance against each other and united.
"General Yu, General Sun, General Chen, at this time when it is not a time to celebrate, a certain family has a mention of yƬ." Tai Shi Ci wore armor on his head, his spear was bloodthirsty, and the white armor on his body was dyed blood red, squinting his eyes and staring at Yuan Jun outside the city.
"General Taishi, please speak!"
Yu Mi and the three of them looked at Tai Shi Ci, and their eyes couldn't help but flow with this touch of admiration, they could be divided into high and low on the battlefield, they had to admit that Tai Shi Ci was obviously above them in terms of martial arts and command ability.
"Do you dare to go out of the city and fight?"
Tai Shi Ci's eyes burst out with a touch of essence, and said: "In Shouchun City, there is also a cavalry that is recuperating and can be a vanguard, if you are willing to fight, this battle will be won." ā
"Overlord Iron Rider."
When the three of them heard this, their eyes lit up and they called out.
The overlord iron cavalry became famous by stepping on the two major generals Zhang Ying and Fan Neng under Liu Xuan, and they are naturally no strangers.
"Fight!" Chen Heng shouted and said: "Shouchun City has reached this point, you can't just be beaten, and if you fight again, what's the matter, you can't recover the lost territory and drive them all out of Jiujiang." ā
"Fight!" Yu Mi and Sun Shao also nodded.
"Okay, don't let the brothers rest, keep this breath, and when it gets completely dark, when Yuan Jun and the others are resting and eating, we will attack and beat them out of time."
Tai Shi Ci and Zhou Tai glanced at each other and showed a hideous smile slightly.
As night fell, Yuan Jun began to eat while packing up his things, preparing to take advantage of the night to retreat to Cai.
Knock knock knock......
Suddenly, a heavy sound of horses' hooves sounded, and everyone was shocked, and then they saw that the gate of Shouchun City, which had been closed, suddenly opened.
"Where is Ji Ling, a certain family is too Shici, this is Yangzhou, you can't wait to come and go, leave your life for a certain family!"
A loud voice resounded through the faint starry sky, Tai Shi Ci took the lead, and the speed of the cavalry was like lightning, and when Yuan Jun did not react, it suddenly came.
"Kill!" The overlord iron cavalry moved in unison, like a sharp sword, directly breaking through the Yuan army's gate, destroying a qiÄ, and fiercely inserting into the Yuan army's military camp.
"Taishi Ziyi, Hugh is presumptuous! Sons, get on the horse and kill! Ji Ling was in the big tent, suddenly heard the shouting of killing, a cold war, and immediately knew that it was not good, his reaction was very fast, he instantly rushed out of the camp, turned over his horse, and led thousands of battle-hardened cavalry under his command, rushed up, blocked the overlord iron cavalry, and stabilized the position of the Yuan army.
At this time, tens of thousands of foot soldiers in Shouchun City were close to the surging rush, and on the position of the Yuan army, a fierce battle broke out, and it was less than an hour before and after, and the attack and defense were shifted.
Ji Ling can block Tai Shici, but the cavalry under his command can't stop the overlord iron cavalry, and the overlord iron cavalry directly penetrates this army of soldiers and horses, and then haunts the camp, facing the infantry of the Yuan army, slashing and killing on horseback.
Yuan's army was defeated, fled in a hurry, and was defeated.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
The next day, Ji Ling led the only remaining 30,000 remnants of the army, and after several battles, he broke out of the siege of Tai Shici, and retreated to Xia Cai under the response of Xia Cai's troops.
ā¦ā¦
Three days later, Liu Miao sent Chen Heng with 10,000 troops, which could only recover Xiquyang, and then guard Yinling and defend Yuan's army.
ā¦ā¦
In the third year of the first peace, in December, the first heavy snow fell in Yangzhou, and the battle of Jiujiang also came to an end, although the Yuan army still occupied the four counties of Jiujiang County, Xia Cai, Ping'a, Dangtu, and Yicheng, but the losses were numerous, and they were unable to capture Jiujiang County.
