Chapter 546: Fan Yang Falls
In the spring of the first year of Yongchang, Shi Leqin led an army of 500,000 troops to successfully cross the border of Youji and officially entered the territory of Liaodong, and the first city he encountered was Fanyang. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Under the city of Fanyang, the 500,000 army of Qianhu, after a short rest, quickly completed the assembly, preparing to take Fanyang as the foundation in one fell swoop, and then go directly north to Zhuo County.
Fortunately, before the war, the Liaodong Army had evacuated all the people near the border to the rear, except for thousands of defenders in Fanyang City, there was no one around, which made Qianhu, who was used to killing and robbing, a little uncomfortable.
As the commander-in-chief of the whole army, Shi Le didn't care much about these little things. In his heart, how to capture Fan Yang in the shortest possible time is the most important thing.
In addition, his brain has been thinking about how to deal with the problem of the main force of the Liaodong Army returning to the north in the future, which is the biggest threat facing Qianhu.
"Lord, the siege men are ready." Kong Chang walked into the big tent of the Chinese army and reported loudly.
Shi Le glanced up at Kong Chang and said softly: "General Kong, it is all up to you to capture Fanyang, I am waiting for your good news in the big tent." ”
"Please rest assured, the last general will definitely take Fan Yang in the shortest possible time." Kong Chang patted his chest and reassured.
Shi Le bowed slightly, and said with a straight face: "Now there are only a few thousand defenders in Fanyang City, and I believe that this little strength is not a concern for you at all." I believe that General Kong will not be disappointed and will definitely be able to take Fan Yang in the shortest possible time. ”
"Please wait here for good news, and the general will not disappoint you."
Seeing that Shi Le trusted him so much, Kong Chang was very happy, and quickly turned around and left with his fists hugged.
Outside the big tent, Kong Chang stepped on his war horse and shouted: "The warriors of Qianhu, follow the general to Fanyang City!" The general has issued a military order to the lord to attack Fan Yang within two hours, otherwise he will be dealt with by military law. ”
After saying that, Kong Chang rode his horse to kill Fan Yang, and tens of thousands of Qihu soldiers followed closely behind, killing Fan Yang City in a mighty manner.
When he came to Fanyang City, Kong Chang waved his spear and shouted: "Order!" The whole army attacked. ”
"Woooooo Suddenly, a deafening horn sounded in the sky above Fan Yang.
Encouraged by the sound of the horn, the Qihu soldiers pushed the well fence and the thunderbolt cart to approach Fanyang City. For a time, arrows flew wildly on the head of the city, and stones of different sizes were also thrown at the head of Fanyang City by thunderbolts.
Soon, a large number of cloud ladders were erected at the head of Fanyang City, and countless Qihu soldiers climbed up along the cloud ladders, and the Qihu archers who were waiting under the city kept releasing arrows, causing great casualties to the Liaodong Army defending the city wall, and pressing the soldiers of Fanyang Defenders to raise their heads.
Due to the absolute superiority of the Qianhu army in terms of strength, under the continuous attacks of the enemy from all directions, the defenders of Fanyang suffered great losses, and the defense line was once precarious.
In front of General Fan Yang, the army joined the army and said worriedly: "My lord, the Hulu offensive is becoming more and more fierce every time, and the brothers have suffered heavy casualties, but I am afraid that it will not last long." ”
General Fan Yang said with a resolute face: "If we can't hold it, we must insist, the longer we hold on, the more prepared the brothers in the rear will be, and the main force of the army will be able to return in time to help." Unless we all die on the city wall, we must not let Hu Lu step into Fan Yang. ”
"No! People are in the city, and it's a big deal to fight with Hulu. "The blood of the defenders has been completely mobilized, and the whole army is ready to die in battle to serve the country, and many soldiers have expressed their determination to the defenders and loudly.
General Fan Yang looked at the subordinates who were not timid and retreated, and his blood seemed to be burning, and he couldn't help but want to look up to the sky and howl. He actually knows in his heart that it is not that everyone is not afraid of life and death, but that everyone knows that if they die for the country and die well, their families will be proud of it.
"Good! My Liaodong soldiers are all good, and there is no one of them! Although the city may not be able to be defended, we must let those Hulu know that there is a price to be paid for taking the city from us. ”
Soon the battle raged for an hour and a half, from morning to noon, and despite the heavy losses of the defenders, the city of Van Duong remained firmly in their hands, and the city had already paid thousands of casualties.
Seeing that his subordinates continued to attack for more than an hour, but still failed to break through Fanyang City, Kong Chang, who had been supervising the formation in the rear, was annoyed and angry. Just now, he played a package ticket in front of Shi Le, but he didn't expect that the little Fan Yangcheng would make him lose face.
At this time, a subordinate suggested: "General, the army has been attacking for a long time, and the soldiers are already exhausted, so it is better to withdraw and rest for a while, and then make plans after eating." ”
Kong Chang was furious when he heard this, and scolded: "No, if you don't break through Fanyang City, those who dare to take a step back will be killed!" ”
The originally somewhat declining Qianhu offensive regrouped again under Kong Chang's strict orders and launched a fierce attack on Fan Yang. Under the continuous attack of the Qianhu people, the defenders of Fanyang finally reached the last moment, and the reason why they have not yet been defeated is all supported by their hearts and breaths.
"The biography will be ordered, those who enter Fan Yang first will be rewarded with ten thousand dollars! Everyone, speed up and rush, be sure to take Fan Yang as soon as possible. ”
Kong Chang shouted loudly, jumped up to the city with a spear, and it seemed that he didn't plan to watch the play on the side, but wanted to take the lead. Kong Chang's martial arts were strong, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen Liaodong soldiers had died under his gun, and soon he killed a bloody road. A large number of Qihu soldiers followed behind Kong Chang and gradually suppressed the Liaodong army.
General Fan Yang, who was fighting in blood, couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Kong Chang easily kill several Liaodong soldiers, and after a closer look, he realized that it was General Qianhu who came up in person.
I saw that the guard general turned his heart sideways and shouted loudly: "All the generals listen to the order, follow me to kill the main general of the cara, kill!" ”
"Kill!" About a hundred elite soldiers from Liaodong followed behind the guards with a roar, roaring and killing Kong Chang.
Kong Chang has strong martial arts, except for a few people such as Duan Wenyang, Beigong Chun, Chen An, Liu Yao, etc., the rest of the Liaodong generals are not in his eyes, not to mention that this person in front of him is still an unknown person, so he is even more despised.
"Humph! I don't know what I can! Kong Chang burst into a shout, raised his spear fearlessly and killed the soldiers of Liaodong.
At the same time, as time went on, more and more Qihu soldiers attacked the city, and fewer and fewer Liaodong soldiers were suppressed in the corners and passively beaten. It was clear that the Qianghu had completely gained the upper hand, and it was only a matter of time before Fanyang was captured.
"Kill Hu!" General Fan Yang led the last hundred or so soldiers to fight to the death with Kong Chang and other people, and the scene was extremely tragic, and flesh and blood were flying everywhere.
This was a very disparity in strength, how could Fan Yang defend how to be Kong Chang's opponent, and Liaodong's troops were far inferior to Hu Lu, so it didn't take long for the war to end. The guards were killed in Kong Chang, and the rest of the guards were also killed one after another.
At this point, none of the thousands of defenders surrendered, and all of them were finally killed on the battlefield.
When the battle was over, the whole city was covered with corpses, both the Hu and the Jin. In particular, almost none of the corpses of the soldiers of the Liaodong Army were intact, which shows the fierceness of the battle and the tenacious resistance of the defenders.
Half an hour later, Kong Chang came to the big tent of the Chinese army with blood and reported to Shi Le about the battle, "Report to the lord, the defenders have been completely annihilated by our army, and Fanyang City has been officially captured by our army." ”
Seeing that Kong Chang captured Fanyang in just half a day, Shi Le couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he praised with satisfaction: "General Kong is worthy of being my general Qianhu, he took Fanyang City so quickly, have you caught any prisoners?" ”
"No, those Liaodong troops are very stubborn, and they would rather die in battle than surrender, and it is precisely because of this that our army has paid nearly 20,000 casualties."
Kong Chang looked at Shi Le with some trepidation, to be honest, he was very worried about being punished by Shi Le for this. Unexpectedly, Shi Le just fell silent when he heard this, and did not take advantage of this to get angry.
The loss of 20,000 people certainly made Shi Le feel distressed, but it was not enough to make him angry with Kong Chang. He was very hated by the Liaodong army, so he was not surprised at all by the fact that the defenders fought to the last soldier, but felt that it was a matter of course.
After pondering for a while, Shi Le stood up and said softly, "Let's go, let's go into Fanyang City and have a look." ”
After speaking, he strode out of the big tent of the Chinese army, stepped on the war horse, and walked slowly towards Fan Yangcheng. (To be continued.) )
