Chapter Forty-Seven: The Battle of the Castle (Part II)
Yue Tuo, Dege and others were surrounded by several henchmen Jia Lazhangjing, observing the battlefield situation behind.
"Jimo Camp is nothing more than that"
Yue Tuo looked around confidently, and the Derge was fanning his hand in disgust, as if to wave away the strange smell of gold juice that shrouded the battlefield.
Hearing this, Derge Muran nodded, there was not much joy on his face, Su Kesa propped his hand in front of his eyes to block the scorching sun, he was looking at the Ming army guards above the city wall, hearing Yue Tuo's words, Su Kesa thought about it, and did not make a sound, Kong Youde was not there, but Geng Zhongming on the side seized the opportunity to compliment the unparalleled archery skills of the light armored archers.
Suksa counted carefully, there were about twelve ladders erected on the front of the city wall in the distance, and four or five on the walls on both sides, these ladders firmly grasped the city wall, and one by one the soldiers in heavy armor wriggled towards it like ants, and the armor soldiers on one of the ladders had climbed to nearly two-thirds of the place, not far from the battlement.
Everyone watching the battle couldn't help but get nervous, the hand-to-hand battle is the most important, if these warriors go up and occupy a place to defend, then it is very likely that the Ming army on the city wall will collapse partially.
At this moment, there were several bangs in the distance, and countless heads appeared on the city wall......
"Shoot me!"
Yue Tuo was in a hurry, whether the vigilant archers could hear it or not, and raised his horsewhip and shouted.
Suddenly there were large rolling stones on the city wall, and a pot of gold juice poured down from every battlement, and the armor soldiers on the ladder were suddenly in chaos, and countless armor soldiers cried miserably and tumbled down from the ladder and fell heavily into the chaos of stones below.
The terrible screams of those scalded tartars clearly reached the ears of everyone behind them, Yue Tuo frowned, and slashed the horsewhip.
The archers below immediately began to fight back, and a cloud of arrows poured down on the city walls, and countless figures with crossbow arrows fell from the walls screaming and slamming down on the ground or on the people below.
Yue Tuo nodded, his heart was much more refreshed, and at this moment, many heads suddenly appeared on the city walls on both sides, and the muzzles of the black holes were pointed at the armored soldiers who were still climbing in the middle.
"Puffy!"
The smoke of gunpowder was everywhere, and a large group of armored soldiers fell from half the height of the city wall, these people were estimated to die in mid-air, and even the screams were not as loud as last time, and when the light armored archers opened their bows and arrows again, the city walls on both sides were empty, how could there be half a figure?
"Han dog is really cunning!" Yue Tuo scolded hatefully, but Geng Zhongming didn't dare to open his mouth this time to echo
When Yue Tuo noticed that the armored soldiers under the city wall began to slow down, he realized that these people were afraid, so he ordered: "The overseers come forward and cut down all those who are afraid of the battle!" ”
A Niu Lu Jingzhang received the order, pulled the horse, and galloped away.
Disheveled!
A stone weighing 300 catties was pushed down, crushing the three or four armored soldiers holding shields below into a mass of flesh and blood, and several people around saw this tragic situation and ran away.
At this time, the war drums of the rear army sounded rapidly, and the white swing teeth of the overseers behind them stretched their bows and arrows, aimed at these armor soldiers under the city, and saw that the supervision team was ready to kill, although there were rolling stones on the city wall to push down, but these armor soldiers were no longer afraid, and climbed up one by one......
A few more pots of gold juice fell on the city wall, and then there was no more, and soon, even the rolling stone and sassafras were scarce, Yue Tuo couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene: "The siege of the city is six days, even if the Jimo camp rushes to make gold juice overnight, then it can't make so much?" ”
This made everyone laugh, and even the Derge class smiled slightly.
At this moment, the firecrackers on both sides who had not shown up for a long time suddenly appeared again, and there was a burst of guns against the ladder climbing in the middle!
After the smoke cleared, everyone looked at it, and a group of armored soldiers who were about to approach the city were all spared and disappeared!
"Send two allotted and allocate a hundred lightly armored archers to guard below, and shoot at me when they show up!" Yue Tuo was furious, but after thinking about it, although the fire gun was more powerful, it was slow to launch and could not be hit accurately, if there was a team of archers guarding the city, it would definitely be able to catch them off guard.
Another Niu Lu took the order and hurried away......
After a while, another burst of gunpowder smoke rose into the sky from the city on the left, and Yue Tuo was stunned, didn't these firecrackers dare not show their heads and shoot empty guns at the sky? When he saw the iron that had been thrown down, his face changed.
Since the beginning of the siege battle, these lightly armored archers have fired no less than ten rounds of crossbow arrows at the city wall, and now they feel that their arms are sore, and they may as well suddenly fall on the city head, more than a dozen smoking black guys, falling at their feet, bounced and suddenly exploded, countless iron stalks everywhere, and the queue of archers on the left suddenly howled, and before they came to their senses, the muzzles of those disappeared firecrackers on the city wall came out again......
"The casualties of the warriors are not small!"
Yue Tuo felt that his deployment was always restrained by the defenders at the head of the city, and he suddenly felt that his face was gloomy, and at this moment, a Jia Lazhangjing suddenly shouted: "Master! Look, master! Tumen, their bull is attacking! ”
Yue Tuo fixed his eyes and saw that on the right side of the city wall, on four or five cloud ladders, some armor soldiers had climbed the wall and were fighting bloody battles with the Ming army on the city wall, and the fire soldiers who were unanimously worried about it still appeared on the left wall from time to time to fight guerrilla with the archers under the city.
"Good!"
Yue Tuo swung his horsewhip, and the whip was slightly slammed into the thigh of the Jia Lazhangjing, causing him to gasp.
"Tumen's minion is good, tell them to break Lushun first, and allow him to choose slaves first"
Yue Tuo looked excitedly at the city head on the right: "Let the reserve team prepare and break through the city wall on the right side with all your might." ”
Jia Lazhangjing waved his hand, and a white tooth lama dialed the horse to give the order, and Derge couldn't help but nodded, the combat effectiveness of the red flag is really good, and he broke through the side of the city wall so quickly, if he let himself command, I am afraid it will not be so smooth.
At the moment, everyone's attention was all hung up by the breakthrough on the right, and soon, four or five cloud ladders were erected, firmly on the right city wall, everyone could see that the city head was still fighting, but obviously the Ming army slowly retreated, and the armor soldiers on the city head gathered more and more, and on the newly erected cloud ladder, those armor soldiers had no gold juice, and the bothering of the rolling stones was also very smooth to climb up.
"Congratulations on your victory!"
Geng Zhongming saw that there were at least more than 100 Tartar soldiers in this wave, and felt that the overall situation had been decided, so he hurriedly congratulated Yue Tuo first.
Yue Tuo laughed, his face full of smugness.
What was broken through was a section of the city wall defended by Li Weiluan and his people, but it was not a breakthrough, because Yang Bo deliberately let them up.
It is not cost-effective to shoot condescendingly with the Tartars, the accuracy of the firecrackers is poor, the speed is slow, and it is far from the opponent of the Tartar archers on the city wall, only concentrated shooting can exert the greatest power, after several rounds of continuous shooting on the left side, the offensive of the left and middle ladders is suppressed, but the emptiness on the right side is soon discovered by the Tartars, they jump on the city in twos and threes, and use their flesh and blood to fill the horses and antlers placed behind the wall.
Li Weiluan led the defenders to kill the Tartars who jumped on the barbed horses and the thistles, and the Tartars on the ladder were still jumping down one after another, and after the Tartars gathered a small team, the Ming army led by Li Weiluan began to be a little overwhelmed.
There was a rapid sound of gongs, Li Weiluan waved his hand, and the Ming army began to retreat slowly, and the Tartars urgently cleared the obstacles on the city wall, while shouting downward, asking the people on the ladder to hurry up to support.
After a small detachment gathered more than 40 people, he was determined, and began to kill these people towards the middle city wall, and as soon as he arrived at the mezzanine, a neat group of ironclad soldiers held spears and stared at them coldly!
Xiaofen's scalp was numb, these Ming soldiers were all wearing black heavy armor, and the spears in their hands were dark and shiny, this was not the reason for his scalp numbness, the key was the indifference on their faces, as if they were not facing the murderous Jianzhou warriors,
but
A flock of chickens to the slaughter......
Enraged by this silent disregard, he proudly flicked his pig's tail, clenched the handle of the axe in his hand, and shouted, "Kill! ”
"Kill!"
A company commander waved his hand fiercely
Brush!
The spearmen pointed their spears at the front in unison, and stomped their feet violently: "Kill!" ”
The two streams of iron quickly collided in this narrow passage, and suddenly the shouts of killing were loud......
No matter how many casualties there were, Yang Bo insisted on letting the pikemen face to face with the Tartars in the metro, these soldiers who survived the hand-to-hand combat never had any fear of the Tartars from now on, in the face of fearless courage, the Tartars were not much different from those pigs and sheep, and the flesh and blood battlefield was the best place to cultivate this kind of courage.
Despite this, Yang Bo was still nervously waiting for the results to be returned, and countless observers were walking through the mezzanine, constantly reporting the battle situation to Yang Bo.
"A company has begun to contact the Tartars, and I have the advantage in numbers"
"One connected to the fire, killed five Tartars, broke two, two were slightly injured, and one was seriously injured"
"Advance five meters in a row, kill ten Tartars, and there is a small distribution with a flag on their backs, but the Tartar support has arrived, and the battle is deadlocked"
"Pushed five meters in a row, killed three Tartars, killed eight casualties, and five were wounded by arrows"
"The company advanced to the exit of the sandwich road, the Tartars were not supported, and the whole team returned to the horse face to fight again"
When Yang Bo heard this, he waved his hand: "Tell Yilian that they are good!" One company retreats to rest, and the second company goes up"
Yue Tuo and the others anxiously waited for the news of the city wall on the right, although the killing and shouting from above shook the sky, but they couldn't wait for the news of the collapse of the Ming army, looking at the swarming armor soldiers, Yue Tuo was so anxious that he held the horsewhip tightly, and his neck was stretched.
By the time there were nearly a hundred Tartars on the right, the rotation assassination of the pikes was over.
On the ladder climbed up a Niu Lu Jingzhang, followed by him climbed up there are more than a dozen white swing teeth, this Niu Lu is dedicated to making meritorious service in front of Yue Tuo, hearing that the master is particularly concerned about the breakthrough on the right side, and hearing that the slave who broke the right side of the city wall first, this Niu Lu will get up the courage and personally put on the battle.
Niu Lu took over the command as soon as he came up, and those soldiers consciously moved closer to him according to their ranks, and soon, hundreds of people gathered around Niu Lu, and there were constantly people joining behind him.
Hearing that the attack was blocked, the soldiers were beaten back several times, and even the small distribution with the soldiers was stabbed into a hedgehog, Niu Lu was suddenly furious, and ordered Bai to form a leader of the attack team, he commanded in the center, and the soldiers followed behind, Niu Lu knew that the current situation was very critical to the Ming army, if he let his team rush into the mezzanine, I was afraid that the Ming army in the middle and left side of the city would collapse immediately, and it was no wonder that they were dying and struggling, desperately blocking themselves.
Niu Lu is full of confidence, and this time he will rush into the sandwich road with all his strength and kill the Ming army on the city wall.
More than a dozen white tooth horns carefully held their shields, bypassing the corpses under their feet, but the resistance they expected did not come, and the quiet half of the figure on the road was not seen, but when they turned the corner,
On the sandwich crossing,
A forest of spears awaited them!
There was no extra nonsense, and when the white tooth lamas were just about to throw away the heavy shields in their hands and fight with the Ming army that blocked them, these spearmen suddenly crouched down, revealing rows of swarthy muzzles behind them......
