Four-faced Han Song 7
Verse 27 There was a great turmoil in the city. With such a large siege vehicle, anyone who sees it at first glance will feel that they can't resist. In just a few moments, the siege engine had been pushed by the soldiers and rushed to the other side of the moat. At this time, the enemies on the city tower finally reacted and drew their bows and arrows. This time the distance was much closer, and it was condescending, a row of arrows rained down, and dozens of soldiers on the cart fell when they boarded.
The Southern Han side is also red-eyed now, these dozens of people fell, and immediately rushed up dozens of people. With all his strength, he pushed the siege engine forward. At this time, half of the body of the siege vehicle had rolled ashore, and the arrows on the head of the city were more urgent, and the shield soldiers holding shields on the side were tightly guarding, and sometimes an arrow was shot through the gap, and from time to time soldiers fell, but the soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty went forward one after another, regardless of casualties.
After the siege vehicles paid heavy casualties on the Southern Han side, the bodies finally rushed to the opposite bank. At this time, the Southern Han side let out a burst of cheers like a mountain. The soldiers in the back rushed up from behind. The fast ladder men had even reached the top of the wall, threw the ladder towards the wall, and then brandished their weapons and began to climb the city.
Wu Ming is now one of the main generals of the Southern Army, and Zhu Yulong also gave him a copy of the battle plan this time before the war, so it is also a bit of a spectrum. Up to now, it can be said that the progress of the war is almost as expected by the Southern Han Dynasty, and he glanced at Zhu Yulong. Seeing that the other party was staring intently at the battlefield in the distance, sweat appeared on his forehead, and he was obviously extremely nervous.
At this moment, a dull "rumbling" sound was suddenly heard. Even if you are far away, you can vaguely feel the trembling of the earth. He was surprised and turned his head to look, and saw that the tall city gate of Guangyang was slowly opened.
Wu Ming was stunned for a moment, the power of the siege vehicle was so great, and the city gate was actually opened in one fell swoop?
As soon as the city gate opened, the muffled thunderous voice became clear. A large group of heavily armed cavalry shouted and rushed out of it. The first one let out a wild shout, and the mount under the seat hissed angrily, leaped into the air, and crashed into the two heavily armored soldiers blocking the city gate. The two armorers were originally holding shields, and they were preoccupied with the fierce arrows that splashed water under the city. When the city gate opened, the two of them were stunned at the same time, and in their dreams, a black shadow had already swooped up in the air. There was a muffled "bang" sound, and it smashed right on the shield held high by the two of them. A huge force like the top of Mount Tai came from the shield, and the two of them could no longer stand, and their bodies fell backwards, knocking over several people in a row.
The person who charged into battle was none other than Jian Feiyang.
As soon as the two fell, the dense shield array of the Southern Han army under the city suddenly appeared a big gap. Jian Feiyang's mount also screamed and fell to his knees. But he was not afraid, and before the mount landed, the man had already jumped up from above, picked up the spear in his hand, and shouted "Kill." "The man has whirlwinded towards the gap.
The sound of horses' hooves became louder and louder, and countless cavalry rushed out of Guangyang City in a steady stream, and they slashed with guns and knives, bravely and bravely. The soldiers of the Han army had to guard against the cold arrows above their heads, and they had to face the iron cavalry that rushed out of the city, and they were in chaos for a while. In a few moments, the cavalry who rushed out had cleared the Boss's circle of open space around the city gate. Above the city, there was a wave of cheers.
Wu Ming stood on the high platform, with a lot of emotion in his heart, no wonder Zhu Yulong regarded Jian Feiyang as a thorn in his eye and a thorn in his flesh, but it was like this. This kind of terrain combined with such a fierce cavalry is too perverted. Seeing that the position of the Southern Han army was already precarious under the impact of the other party, the large force behind was still helpless on the opposite side. After all, even if there are more than a dozen rail cars, the number of people who can rush through at one time is limited. He turned his head and said loudly to Zhu Yulong: "Brother Zhu, the shape is urgent, let the guard battalion come." ”
Zhu Yulong turned his head, his face was covered with sweat. Knowing that now was not the time to be polite, he nodded and said, "Accurate." ”
Wu Ming said: "The Xuanwu team is with me." "The man has jumped off the platform. The Xuanwu team members in the audience suddenly let out a neat violent promise, and followed up together under the leadership of Yang Xiong. On the command platform, the flag is unfurled. The dense formation in front quickly split between them, making way for the Guards Battalion.
The movement on the opposite side naturally fell on Jian Feiyang's eyes, and he slashed his spear in a circle, smashing over the two Southern Han soldiers who rushed up again. He shouted at the soldiers cheering at the top of the city: "Shout, shout a bird, and support with a bow and arrow." ”
His two thousand iron cavalry rushed out to catch the Southern Han by surprise, but as the battle unfolded, these cavalry had lost their speed, and most of the soldiers were forced to jump off their horses and form a gun formation with the rushing Southern Han soldiers. These two thousand cavalry used to be Chen Jianfei's two thousand personal guards, and they were first-class cavalry on horseback, and they were spearmen who were good at guarding when they dismounted. After forming a gun formation, he also had a clear eye, and he fought with the soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty, and still had the upper hand.
Jian Feiyang's heart was anxious, and the Southern Han army that came to help had a guard battalion. If the elite soldiers are in the process, there are very few people in the world who can reach the guard camp. Although he has great confidence in his two thousand sons, he is also self-aware. What's worse is that now my own team has no speed. Without speed, there is no impact, and you can only mix under the city.
And melee is the specialty of the Guards Battalion.
His voice was shouted out with full of true anger, and it was especially piercing in the midst of the shouting and killing. After a shout of cheers, the soldiers woke up like from a dream, drew their bows and arrows again, and shot at the city. The soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty fell down again, but they still maintained their basic formation and struggled to support themselves.
With the support of the city head, the situation below is more favorable to the defenders. Looking at the fallen Southern Han soldiers, Jian Feiyang's heart was also mixed, but now was the time to be sentimental, he roared: "Keep up." The spear flickered, picking off a soldier who was standing in front of him. Zhou Ji took a pair of elite spearmen to protect his surroundings and pounced on the siege vehicles on the opposite side. The soldiers carried a gun in their right hand, and each carried a large jar in his left hand.
"You have to be quick, as much as you can." Jian Feiyang shouted anxiously in his heart. He also knew that once he let the guard battalion rush over, he would have to retreat to the city, otherwise he would die an ugly death with the first battalion of warriors. And the ugly business that died, he Jian Feiyang was not willing to do.
At this time, Wu Ming had already rushed to the side of the rail car with the Xuanwu members of the Guards Battalion, and the rail bridge was now crowded with people. On flat ground, these soldiers can dodge in both directions, but there is a wide and deep moat underneath the rail car, and it is impossible for these soldiers to jump down the river.
Wu Ming was so anxious that he looked up at the archers in the opposite city, and resisted the idea of leaping over the bridge. The enemy has bows and arrows in hand, and now they are flying in the air, and when they fly over, they will probably become hedgehogs. It's not okay if you're an eight-dan master.
He could only wait silently for the people on the rail car to slowly evacuate. Anxiously looking at the other side.
Jane flew wildly and rushed to the side of the siege vehicle with a team of elite soldiers. Four Southern Han soldiers rushed forward brandishing Pu knives. Although the momentum was still full, the heavy armor shield soldiers just now were unable to stop it, and they were naturally in vain. Zhou Ji snorted lightly, and took five spearmen to meet at the same time, and the two sides exchanged knives and guns, and after only a short while, these four soldiers all became the ghosts of the guns, and Zhou Ji was also slashed on the arm because he rushed the most, and the blood flowed like a lot. He shouted angrily, and was about to rush to kill again, when Jian Feiyang said in a deep voice: "Quick, don't rub it off." Throw the jar on it, and the formation behind it will defend itself. ”
The soldiers who followed him listened to his order, and threw their clay pots at the huge siege engine. I only heard a "bang" sound, the clay pot was smashed to pieces, and the tung oil inside flowed out. The entire siege vehicle was painted all over the body. The soldiers who followed followed and continued to throw at it. After a while, oil stains flowed around the siege vehicle, and the air was filled with an unpleasant smell of tung oil.
The guide rails were finally evacuated, and when Wu Ming stepped on it with the Xuanwu team, he happened to see the movements of Jian Feiyang and the others. His complexion changed drastically, and he said in a loud voice, "Be careful of fire attacks." ”
Before the words fell, Jian Feiyang had already led a group of elites to fight and leave, and retreated back to the city gate hole, and some soldiers did not know where they were, trying to follow them all the way in. But immediately a rain of arrows struck the tower, and dozens of people fell on the board. Immediately afterwards, a round of rockfall was not far behind, and more than a dozen people were smashed. The soldiers paused, and for a moment no one dared to storm the city again. Jian Feiyang stood at the gate of the city and said loudly to Wu Ming: "Lord Wu, I'm fine, don't send it." He laughed.
In the midst of laughter, the gate of Guangyang City has been rumbled shut again. A large group of soldiers, seeing that the enemy had retreated, rushed to the side of the siege cart and were about to push the cart again to attack the city. Jian Feiyang's shouting suddenly sounded on the city tower: "Rocket Waiter." ”
Although Sima Shang is extremely poor and luxurious, the city defense is related to his life, so he naturally takes it very seriously. Although Guangyang City is now in short supply, the city still has a lot of boiling oil pine and the like.
The soldiers woke up like a dream, and wrapped the arrows in strips of cloth and dipped them in oil, or tied them to the siege vehicles of the Songming Dynasty and shot them down. There was oil everywhere around the siege engine, but when I saw the sparks, there was a boom, and the flames rose high. The surrounding Southern Han soldiers couldn't dodge, and many people followed suit, and jumped into the moat next to them with flames, screaming endlessly.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the huge siege engine was already burning.
Because the logs of the siege engine were wrapped in iron sheets, the top was only burned soft, and it had not changed much. But the wheels couldn't stand it, and after a while they became coke, and only a "click" sound was heard. The wheel on the right couldn't bear the force in the firelight, and finally broke in two. The huge siege vehicle tilted, fell down, and lay across the moat with a muffled "bang".
Now, even if the Southern Han wanted to push the cart to attack the city again, it would be impossible.
As soon as the siege engine fell, there was a cheer from the city. Wu Ming's lungs were about to explode.
