Chapter 190: Siege Battle
The next day, with the beating of the war drums, a siege battle began, Kong Youde didn't know what the psychology of Lu Dao was, he lined up all the troops, looking at the rebel soldiers who were showing off their might below, and the officers and soldiers on the city wall changed their faces.
Kong Youde was satisfied, he slowly paced under the city wall, away from the range of the musket, and shouted proudly: "Wang Hu, I didn't expect us to meet again, this time you said you still have a chance to defeat me?" Open the door and surrender as soon as possible, I can spare your life! ”
Wang Dalun stood on the city wall, looked at Kong Youde with a sneer and said: "Kong Youde, your subordinate is defeated, if you don't run away quickly, you dare to run to death?" If you don't run quickly, you won't be able to run too late, so be careful that my cavalry will chase you from behind! ”
"Phew!" Kong Youde scolded: "I don't know who is going to kill the deer today, brothers, open Zhangqiu City, and allow you to move freely for a day!" Kill them all! ”
After listening to Kong Youde's mobilization, the rebels were excited, and they were free to move for a day, which meant that they could do whatever they wanted, and they began to howl, carrying the wooden ladders they had made that night, ready to attack the city.
Wang Dalun looked coldly at the soldiers below, and said to the officers and soldiers around him who were already frightened: "Do you hear what is said below? If you don't want to be a ghost under the sword, defend the city for me, kill a rebel soldier, and reward me with a silver tael! Kill a general and get a reward of ten taels of silver! ”
Under the stimulation of the silver taels, the officers and soldiers finally regained their color, and then Wang Dalun said: "The other city gate has been blocked by me, and none of them can escape, and today you will either die or I will die." Everyone's cheering me up!"
Seeing this, the officers and soldiers had to secretly make up their minds, they were all dead anyway, so it was better to pull a cushion, kill a few more rebels, and get a few more taels of silver for their families! Their eyes also began to turn red, and they let out a howl and began to hold various defensive equipment, ready to meet the siege of the rebels.
Just as they were about to give a head-on blow to the rebels who dared to climb the city, they heard a heart-rending cry. They looked down. I saw that the rebel soldiers were driving the local people as vanguards, preparing to meet their attack.
"The soldier on the wall, we are good citizens of the place, don't kill us. We are forced! The people shouted as they began to carry the ladder and prepare for the siege!
"Bow and arrow ready!" Wang Dalun ignored the officers and soldiers who were turning their heads to look at him. Coldly ordered.
The officers and men hesitated. Some of them can't bear it, especially the local people, and many of the people below are familiar to them. Even relatives, they are a little overwhelmed!
Wang Dalun scolded angrily: "They are not your fellow villagers and friends now, they are enemies now, enemies who are ready to come up and ask for your life!" If you want to live, and if you want more of them to live, attack me! ”
Some of the attackers shot the arrow in their hand at the order, but the arrow had no power at all, and they didn't know where it flew. More people are still hesitant, they don't want to do it at all!
"Where's the Warlords?" Wang Dalun scolded: "Now there is a choice in front of you, either kill them, or you will be killed by the Inspector team, choose for yourself!" ”
The archers saw the bright sword of the standard camp, and they were helpless, and they shouted loudly: "Don't go any further, if we go any further we will attack!" ”
But their shouts were in vain, and the people wept and cried as they rushed towards the walls with ladders. Wang Dalun shouted loudly: "Attack! ”
Many of the archers closed their eyes and shot their arrows out, and as the archers attacked, many of the people fell to the ground and lay on the ground wailing, this attack frightened the people, and they began to run back, but were soon forced back by the rebel soldiers.
Wang Dalun watched, the password to prepare for the second round of attacks could not come out, he waited for the people to put the ladder on the city wall, and ordered loudly: "Attack the rebel soldiers, and those who lose their weapons and go to the city wall will not be killed!" ”
When the officers and soldiers heard this, they hurriedly shouted to the people below to quickly throw their weapons and climb up, and the people below thought that they were going to die this time, but they didn't expect that they would be released from above, so they quickly threw down the weapons in their hands and began to scramble to climb up.
Of course, the rebels will not let these cannon fodder escape like this, and began to mix among the people, coercing the people to rush up with weapons, the archers hurriedly named the rebels, Wang Dalun also picked up the musket, and began to roll call the rebel soldiers under the city one by one, with the sound of gunshots, the rebels were hit one by one.
On the ladder, the people were not allowed to climb up with their weapons, and some of them threw their weapons when they were about to climb to the top of the city, and were smoothly accepted into the city, but some were too nervous, and still took their weapons up the wall, and as a result, they were cut down as rebels.
As more and more people came up, among the people who were suddenly picked up, someone took out a dagger and attacked the soldiers defending the city, and there was chaos on the wall, Wang Dalun hurriedly shouted: "Folks, squat down!" Dare to stand up and kill! ”
Most of them squatted down, while a small number of people were still standing, and some were still holding weapons, Wang Dalun shouted: "Kill!" "I saw that the warlords at the end of the wall began to wave their long knives and kill them, as long as they dared to stand, they would not let go!
After cleaning up the riots, I saw a group of people with weapons rushing over, pressing the people who had just come up to go down, and they asked questions as they went, and those who could not speak the local dialect were tied up by them.
In such a situation of slaughter and rescue, most of the people were picked up, some were killed by mistake, and some were killed by the rebels because they wanted to escape. Soon, the ground was full of dead and wounded, and the wails continued!
"Kong Youde! Thou art not a hero! Let innocent people charge into battle, what kind of hero! I will kill you! Wang Dalun shouted angrily.
"Ha Luha, I, Kong Youde, never think of myself as a hero! I only believe in winning and losing! How about just a little hors d'oeuvres? Scared? If you're afraid, surrender quickly! Kong Youde said loudly below.
What answered him was a burst of gunshots, and he saw that the soldier in front of him was hit, although he was injured because of the distance, but it still made Kong Youde very angry, and he said loudly: "What kind of hero is a cold gun hurting people?" ”
"Not worthy of you!" Then another gunshot rang out, but it was blocked by Kong Youde, who had been prepared for a long time, with a shield, and Kong Youde shouted angrily: "Give it to me!" The first climber will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver! ”
With Kong Youde's order, the real siege began, more soldiers howled, carrying ladders and rushing to the city, the archers in the rebel army also began to suppress the city wall, and the archers and musketeers on the city wall were naturally not polite, and began to fight back.
As more ladders were erected, the soldiers at the head of the city began to get busy, some of them using sticks to knock down the ladders, some of them threw stones down, and some of them poured boiling water down of the boiled water!
The rebels were not afraid at all, they raised their shields and began to climb the walls, while the archers below suppressed them. The war was in full swing, and although the defenders of the city were valiant, they had never experienced such a scene after all, and they were forced to rush into a hurry, and there were dangers everywhere.
As the weapons such as stones and boiling water were used up, the strength to suppress the city was weakened, and the battle-hardened rebel soldiers discovered it, and they began to throw away their shields and climb up desperately, and for a while, more and more rebel soldiers rushed to the city, and the situation suddenly became critical!
"Overseer help!" Seeing this, Wang Dalun hurriedly shouted loudly, and he himself rushed up with a knife, desperately slashing at the people who rushed to the wall. The Warlords also wielded their weapons and mingled with those who had ascended the city.
With the addition of the warlords, the situation was finally slowly reversed, and the soldiers who climbed to the top of the city were constantly killed, and suddenly there was a sound of gold from the city, and the rebels received the order, and hurriedly climbed back from the ladder at the head of the city, leaving only a few soldiers who could not escape were captured or killed.
Looking at the rebel soldiers who were slowly retreating, Wang Dalun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, grandma's, there is always a gap between the rabble and the regular army, next time you can't play such a dangerous game, just play a heartbeat.
Wang Dalun looked at the gradually retreating rebels and shouted: "Kong Youde, are you afraid?" Slow down and don't send! ”
"It's getting late today, I'll cut off your dog's head tomorrow!" There was a sudden neat voice from the rebel array, which seemed to be taught by Kong Youde to say it in unison.
Wang Dalun turned his head and said to the officers and soldiers: "Rejoice, we have won!" You're doing well today, come on, brothers, you're doing well! You see, as long as you are not afraid of death, Kong Youde will not want to climb this city! ”
Leaning on the city wall, the soldiers who felt weak all over their bodies, and were afraid for a while, cheered when they heard Wang Dalun's praise and encouragement.
Wang Dalun smiled on his face, but he thought in his heart, your luck is really good, after this battle, Kong Youde will achieve the goal of deterring you, he will definitely withdraw his troops, think about it, I am really looking forward to it, will Kong Youde go to find the bad luck of Kong Mansion?
Kong Youde, who was withdrawing the army, instructed the generals around him: "Tell everyone not to sleep to death at night, and we will withdraw the army before dawn!" ”
"Withdrawal? Where do we retreat? Mao Chenglu asked on the side, he felt that this was too hasty.
"Now that the roads in Jinan and Dengzhou are not open, are you interested in going to Qufu with me? Let's go directly to Lianghuai to play, where the river is vertical and horizontal, and the military affairs are erosive, which is the vertical and horizontal place of our waiting, since we want to play, we will go to the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty to have a good time! ”
"Okay, Lianghuai has been a prosperous place since ancient times, let's go see and see!" The generals cheered. (To be continued......)
