Battle of Hanning 8 Verse 45

Section 45: Could it be that the other party discovered the secret of the thunderbolt, so he deliberately entangled with us? That wasn't possible, and if that were, they wouldn't have had to take such a risk and lock the ship together. For a while, he was also puzzled.

The rain of arrows was so dense that almost the air was filled, and the soldiers at the head of the city took refuge in sheltered places, but some of them rushed forward instead of retreating. They raised their huge shields one after another to protect Zhu Huai in it. Zhu Huai is now standing at the top of the city tower, if he really makes a mistake, it will be fatal to the military heart of the Southern Han Dynasty.

At this time, I suddenly heard Zhu Huaihong say in a loud voice: "Sons and daughters of the Eastern Han Dynasty, now the country is in charge of the jackal, and serving the motherland is in the present day." I wish Huai to stand here, never take a step back, the wall is in the people, the wall is lost. These words were like a thunderbolt, although the sound of shouting and killing on the battlefield shook the sky, but it clearly reached everyone's ears. All the generals of the Southern Han Dynasty immediately responded in unison, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they were rejuvenated. All the soldiers who were crouching on the city wall to avoid the rain of arrows rose from the ground and fought back with bows and arrows, and arrows came and went. The rain of arrows was mixed with the screams and angry scolding of soldiers on both sides.

The enemy had apparently been preparing for the siege for a long time, and saw countless soldiers rush out of the cabin with large shields, and build a shield wall in the bow of the ship. I could only hear a "bang" sound, and most of the arrows rained down on the shield wall like a storm. Poses little danger to the enemy.

"The water cloud ladder is ready, the first bounty to rush to the head of the city, General Feng." Wang Zhi** narrowed his eyes, hid in the shield wall and shouted with all his might.

This time he was suspicious and delayed the military plane. Li Tie has already spoken, if he can't capture Nanning City, he will commit suicide to thank the world. Now there is no way to retreat, and he can't care about his safety now, standing in the front row of the warship to command. Before his words fell, suddenly a black and flickering thing flew over him, and he was startled and hurried. As soon as the thing slammed against the shield wall, a pungent smell permeated. It is the taste of tung oil.

He couldn't help but be shocked, could it be that the other party had started to launch a fire attack? When he looked up and saw that there were no oil cans thrown elsewhere, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It was none other than the thunderbolt that Lu Zao was fiddling with. Zhu Xiaolong clapped his hands on the side and said, "It's hit, Xiaolu, let's have another shot." But the martial arts around him had already changed their faces, and such a tragic bloody fight was the first time everyone had seen it, and many people had seen it for the first time. At this time, I was even more nervous and didn't know what to do. After all, Yang Yi was calmer than the others, he took a few steps forward, protected Zhu Xiaolong behind him and said, "Little boy, go down quickly, there are really three long and two short, the prime minister and the adult will kill us." As he spoke, he couldn't help but look cautiously into the distance.

There, Wu Ming pursed his lips tightly, staring at the enemy ships that were getting closer and closer, with a solemn expression. Zhu Xiaolong raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "Now that even my sister-in-law is in the city, I'm a big man, am I still afraid?" ”

Yang Yi couldn't help but look at the city tower, and saw that behind the prime minister, more than a dozen personal soldiers were using shields to protect a small cyan sedan chair. He couldn't help but be anxious and angry, but there was nothing he could do about Zhu Xiaolong.

"Poof, poof, poof." A flurry of voices rang out. Numerous ladders were erected from the enemy's ship, and as soon as these ladders were next to the wall, a sudden cry of the sky suddenly came out from below: "Kill." Countless enemies climbed up the city wall with shouts along the ladder.

These sailing ships are huge ships, and the raised bow part of the ship is even nearly eight meters high, even if it is partially drafted. But it's also about five meters tall. The head of Nanning City is more than ten meters high, and they set up a water ladder at the bow of the ship to attack the city, which not only did not affect it, but shortened the height of the city wall. Wu Ming couldn't care about his own safety at this time, so he jumped up and shouted: "Hold on, no matter what, you have to hold it." ”

Because the north wall of Nanning City is a water gate, and there is the assistance of the naval army, the guards on the city wall are also relatively lax, and the city defense equipment on it is equal to nothing. Many people could only lift the ladder with their bare hands, but the enemy below was attacked by a rain of arrows. I only heard a chaotic sound of "Ding Ding Dongdong" in the city, and from time to time soldiers were shot by the rain of arrows, and then screamed and stopped on the ground, but the soldiers behind were unconscious, one fell, and the other rushed forward, one after another, and the city was filled with a smell of blood in an instant.

After both sides paid a great price, the soldiers of the Northern Han finally jumped to the head of Nanning. This soldier was probably still immersed in Wang Zhiqing's dream of "the first to rush to the city with a bounty, a general", and as soon as he went to the city, he couldn't help but let out an excited shout, and only half of the words were shouted, and four or five spears were handed over from all directions at the same time. Piercing him into a hedgehog, the soldier with a maniacal smile on his face, his eyes wide open, and then fell headlong from the head of the city.

The two sides officially began a white-knuckle battle.

The entire north of the city was red, and Wang Zhiqing held a war knife and personally supervised the battle under the city. Urging his subordinates to climb up the city tower in waves, one of his personal soldiers wiped the blood on his face, and cried: "Dudu, you can't fight like this, the enemy occupies a favorable position, and if we continue to consume it like this, we will definitely suffer." ”

Wang Zhiqing was furious, kicked the soldier to the ground, and shouted: "If you can't attack Nanning, Lao Tzu is dead, and there is still a chance of life if you rush forward, why don't you rush?" What's more, the enemy was not fully prepared, and we have a lot of people, and we have to pile up Nanning City. Rush me, rush upwards. ”

Wu Ming slashed over the two enemies who had flipped up, and poked his head out of the crack in the pheasant. I saw that the enemy's warships lined up in the rear had already set up a springboard, and countless soldiers dressed in light armor and brandished weapons crossed the bow of the ship from the gangplank, and continued to rush towards the water ladder. There are also many people carrying water ladders, shouting all the way over the gangplank, rushing towards the city. Because the city is now almost full of people fighting between the enemy and us, the enemy has lost the cover of bows and arrows, but the defenders of the city are also helpless against the people below, so there are more and more water ladders on the city wall. And the black oppressive enemy is even more through the guò water ladder, and the tide seems to be surging towards the city. At a glance, this long northern city wall was full of shouts and killings, even more fierce than the battle in Jiangxin.

The sunset slowly hangs in the west, like a red ball hanging obliquely in the sky, and the sunset shoots down obliquely, covering the whole river with crimson tassels. On the river, there were shouts of soldiers everywhere, and nearly a million troops on both sides were torn into a ball within a radius of several hundred miles, like the hell of Shura.

With a muffled sound of "bang", a big ship of the enemy directly crashed into the Nanning Water Gate, and Xiahou Ba's arrogant laughter sounded below: "Zhu Huai boy, you are a little governor, or the Taiwei has mercy and reward you, and now you don't think about it, you even pretend to be the prime minister, let me break your water gate today, so that the entire Nanning City chickens and dogs will not stay." He held the nearly five-foot-long oolong whip in his hand and smashed it on the water gate. Although this gate is made of fine iron, after so many years of sun and rain, some places have decayed, and his hammer was drawn in the center, and the iron rod with the thickness of his thumb was actually broken on the spot.

Wu Ming was in a hurry, the entire water gate was nearly twenty meters wide, although Xiahou Ba's whip had never broken the door, but if he was allowed to destroy it like this, this sluice gate would be smashed by him sooner or later. At that time, the enemy didn't even bother to set up a ladder, so he drove the boat directly into Nanning and killed all the way along the canal in the city. Thinking of this, his heart was cold.

Can't let him continue anyway.

Wu Ming gritted his teeth, turned around and said loudly: "Brother Yang, pick a team of elite personnel and jump down with me to stop the enemy." ”

Almost all the soldiers of the Guards Battalion came this time, and now they are all guarding the city wall and fighting bloodily, this section of the city wall is close to the tower, and it is the place where the enemy has attacked the most, but the enemy has suffered the greatest losses but has made no progress. It is precisely because there are hundreds of soldiers of the Guards Battalion who carry the defense. Yang Xiong shot away an enemy who climbed up to the top of the city, and exclaimed, "My lord, do you want to go down to hand-to-hand combat?" ”

Wu Ming looked at him and said loudly: "Brother Yang, if I don't come back, you will take over the guard battalion." Remember to protect the little emperor and the princess. Not allowing him to scream, Wu Ming showed his red night and shouted wildly: "Brothers, follow me if you have the courage." With that, he jumped up to the head of the city, and with a slight touch of his right foot, like a big bird, he threw himself into the air against the enemy ship.

Beneath the northern wall was now a sea of ships, and these enemy ships rushed up in a steady stream, and then one after the other set up a gangplank, and below were all layers of ships of all kinds. Wu Ming's section of the city wall was as solid as a rock because of the assistance of the guard battalion. But the city wall of Nanning is too wide, and there are really not so many of them in the hundreds. Many of the sections had already been broken through by the enemy and turned into melee on the city walls. But the enemy below is still stepping on the springboard, crossing the giant boats. Don't die and climb up the ladder.

Wu Ming felt dizzy, and his strength on the battlefield seemed too small.

He volleyed into the air, and there were already three or four people waiting in place with various weapons. Wu Ming snorted lightly, and his right hand slapped on the blood-stained city wall, and the person had fallen towards the stern of the ship. No sooner had his feet landed, and before he could stand still, three soldiers were rushing over the gangplank at the stern of the boat. Wu Ming didn't say much, and stabbed with his sword. The enemy who rushed to the front would expect a killing star to suddenly fall from the sky, only to feel a flower in front of him, and was suddenly stabbed by Chixiao, Wu Ming pulled out Chixiao, the man screamed, and fell to the sky, blood spurted out like an arrow. The two soldiers in the back were startled, the two ** were all in the same group, and they were skillful in cooperating. At the same time, he shouted, the person in front of him was holding a huge shield, rushing forward, and the person behind him came first, and the body of the gun suddenly poked out from behind the giant shield.
