Chapter Thirty-Seven: Defending the New Field (I)

"Yes! I'm going to break the new wilderness! When the generals heard Azig's decree, they all expressed their determination.

Lei Xing and Li Qifeng originally wanted to wait, but now they couldn't wait, so they had no choice but to continue to attack Xinye City.

After dispersing, Lei Xing asked Li Qifeng again: "How is the situation over there in Qindi?" Li Qifeng shook his head and said, "I don't know what the situation is over there!" No news came so soon! I think I'll get it the day after tomorrow! ”

Lei Xing asked again: "Do you think we can break through Xinye if we attack the city with all our might?" Li Qifeng smiled bitterly and replied: "Even if it can be broken, it is not possible in the short term!" ”

"Alas!" Lei Xing also sighed and said, "I think so too!" I think that our attack on Xinye is to play a war of attrition with Zhang Biwu, we can afford it, Zhang Biwu can't afford it! We exchange five or more soldiers for one of his soldiers, and we can afford them all! That's where we come in! ”

Li Qifeng also nodded and said, "Yes!" We can only play a war of attrition with Zhang Biwu! I hope that Shinno Castle can be broken as soon as possible! ”

Lei Xing and Li Qifeng reached a consensus, and the two rested early to wait for tomorrow's battle.

Because it was very late to start arranging the siege, so it was dawn, and the Qing army could not set up the formation until the end of the day.

The drums of war rumbled. The Qing army was once again arrayed outside Xinye City. And there are a lot of corpses lying on the ground under Xinye Castle.

Zhang Biwu looked at the Qing army, he sighed, he thought that he could drag on for a day, and if the Qing army attacked again tomorrow, then when the Qing army was exhausted from fighting with him would be his strange appearance. But now. The Qing army attacked again.

Maybe it's because Azig forced Lei Xing and Li Qifeng to go crazy because he gave a strict order! Zhang Biwu was thinking. The other party must have thought of a war of attrition, as long as it is strictly consumed, Zhang Biwu can't afford it, but they can afford it completely!

The horn sounded, and all the archers of the Qing soldiers came out to the front of the formation, and the "shooting" order, the Qing soldiers immediately fired ten thousand arrows and shot at the city.

"Xiu Xiu Xiu" dense arrow rain poured out. Many arrows hit the walls and then fell. And arrows kept coming up on the tower. Or shoot to the belvedere.

There were a lot of arrows stuck in the cracks of the castle walls, and there were also many arrows stuck in the wooden buildings.

The Qing soldiers have attacked! "Hohoo!" The Qing soldiers roared wildly, and they flew towards Xinye City. "Boom", the two Hongyi cannons in the city are welcome!

When a cannon bombarded, I saw that a war horse was blown up into the sky, and a pit appeared at the bottom, and the cavalry was on the bottom of the upper body, and the lower body was ascending to the sky with the war horse.

The splashes of shrapnel and iron balls also injured the Qing soldiers around them, and a nearby Qing soldier was hit in the stomach by the iron balls, and his stomach was suddenly broken. Blood flowed everywhere.

But when I saw that a rod of birds came out of the arrow stack, "bang bang" shot at the same time. The Qing soldier who was shot was trembling violently. Then he fell to the ground.

The cavalryman, who had been shot, lay down on his horse, and the horse, realizing that his master was dead, stopped moving forward.

The galloping cavalry also shot arrows at the castle in the hope of suppressing it and preventing it from hindering their siege.

There are people in the city with shields to block, and they will not stop attacking the enemy.

"The Red Cannon!" The only cannon of the Qing army came in handy, and with a "boom", it bombarded the city gate, and immediately collapsed a large number of bricks on the city gate, but the city wall was still strong, and it was not so easy for the other party to break through.

Zhang Biwu held a bird gun in his hand, he looked for those who seemed to be generals, and with a "bang", another general was shot and fell off his horse, and then someone pulled him back and immediately took him to the rescue.

There was also a Qing general holding a big knife and constantly shouting at the city, and Zhang Biwu shot him again and burst his head. One of the soldiers beside him was so frightened that his feet went limp, as his head burst into his face.

With a "porphyry", the pro-soldier fell to the ground like a pile of mud, and the whole population foamed at the mouth and fainted in fright.

"Xiu Xiu Xiu" The city was also raining arrows, and an additional layer of corpses was immediately added to the ground.

Seeing this, Lei Xing shouted: "Boom! Knock down the walls of Shinno for me! Collapse it! He screamed with all his might!

"Boom" hit the city gate again and again, and the falling bricks and mud would only hit the Qing soldiers below. No, the Qing soldier who was hit fell to the ground softly like a soft-footed shrimp.

This is not bad, some of the people who were hit on the head fell to the ground quickly, and the helmet fell to the ground first, so that the head bounced again, and the blood flowed out of the helmet, and the man's eyes were lifeless, and he was almost not dead.

With a "boom", a guard who was holding a stone to smash it was blown away, like a kite that had dropped its line and fell to the ground.

"Ah" A guard not far away was holding his injured foot tightly with his hand, and it could be seen from his injured foot that there were iron beads, gravel, iron filings, etc.

The other was a guard with a wounded arm, and he wanted to get up and continue fighting, but his comrade who helped him bandage him pressed him and asked, "What are you doing here?" It's all hurt, you can lie down for me! ”

The guards shouted excitedly, "I want to fight!" I can fight again! The comrade-in-arms retreated and said, "Even if it's a battle, you have to wait for me to help you bandage it before you fight!" ”

"Ahh As soon as the comrade-in-arms was tied, the wound was pulled, and the guards couldn't help but cry out in pain. The comrade-in-arms shook his head and said, "Are you still strong?" What do you see your pain? ”

Blood flowed from the wound, staining the rags that had bandaged the wound red. With a "whoosh", the defenders saw that a Qing soldier behind his comrades had climbed to the top of the city!

He immediately grabbed the spear at his feet, stood up nimbly, threw it at the Qing soldiers who were not firmly on his feet, and shouted: "Die! ”

With a "porphyry", the spear pierced the body of the Qing soldier and took the Qing soldier out of the city.

"Whoosh" another Qing soldier climbed to the top of the city, and was not far from them. As soon as I saw them, my eyes flashed fiercely!

He immediately pounced on the guards and comrades, "Be careful! The guard shouted, and the guard pounced on his comrade and blocked the knife for his comrade.

Even if he was dying, the flame of fighting spirit in his eyes was not extinguished, and his comrades could still hear his heart: "Fight!" Fight! ”

His comrades-in-arms didn't know when he pulled out the dagger, and when the Qing soldiers approached to take his life, his body seemed to be a spirit stationed in to control his movements.

let go of a knife, then approached, and then came to the heart of the Qing soldier, and stabbed the Qing soldier to death.

"Boom" came again, and the comrades-in-arms also fell in a pool of blood. Two of the stacks of arrows were blown off, rubble flew and dust billowed off.

Cao Xing shouted: "Let it go!" Hurry up! How could the red-coated cannon be so slow? If you don't give me a few more shots, how can you blow up Shinno City! Rush the order, boom! Boom! See? Many of our troops have climbed to the top of the city, and we must bombard them to support them! ”

Cao Xing was right, many people in the Qing army had already climbed to the top of the city, and it was a very good thing for them to have the support of Hongyi cannons.

The situation was critical, Zhang Biwu naturally went into battle in person and led everyone to kill the enemy soldiers who boarded the city gate. A fierce white-knuckle battle unfolded at the head of the city.

And in Xicheng, there were cheers from the Qing soldiers: "Great! The gates were blasted open! Everyone poured in through the gap! "Critical! Critical! Xinye may break the city at any time!

The Qing army poured into the gap......

The two Qing soldiers were squeezed in through the gap by you and me, and they will be greeted by arrows, no, one or two fell into the gap.

Zhao Dayong shouted: "Everyone follow me!" Plug the gap for me! He didn't just scream, he threw a punching bag towards the gap.

A soldier was hit in the chest, and he fell. Suddenly the dust flew, and the Qing soldiers who rushed in immediately covered their eyes with their hands, which was terrible, after all, the attention of many guards was focused here, as long as the Qing soldiers appeared, they would not spare the arrows, no, the Qing soldiers who covered their eyes were shot into hedgehogs.

Zhao Dayong was actually carrying three bags of sandbags, he walked like flying, in the dust and mist, a Qing soldier rushed over, and he stabbed Zhao Dayong with one shot.

Zhao Dawei, who was also carrying three bags of sandbags, shouted worriedly: "Brother! "Don't worry! Zhao Dayong let this shot pass, and his body swung forward hard, knocking the Qing soldier out of the air, and the Qing soldier also knocked down a Qing soldier who had just come in through the gap.

Zhao Dayong threw down the sandbags extremely quickly and piled them up. At the same time, Zhao Dawei also came and piled up sandbags.

"It's coming!" Someone else shouted, and they brought the big wooden pillars with them, and they pressed against the piles of sandbags. There are also people who use horse nails to nail wooden posts, so that the other party cannot push them away.

People are constantly carrying sandbags, bag after bag. Zhao Dayong and Zhao Dawei are the most powerful, his brothers are carrying three bags at a time, and they are faster than others!

The crowd gathered firewood and the flame was high, and they quickly blocked the gap with sandbags and plugged it. There were also people pushing wheelbarrows to dump all the mud, and people shoveling the soil to fill it up.

The Qing soldiers outside were shouting: "Quick! Push open the gap! Can't let them fill it in! Pour it in! ”

Of course, the people in the city would not let the Qing soldiers below succeed, and they braved the rain of arrows to smash down all the stones and wooden blocks one by one.

The Qing soldiers under the city were also defending their comrades who were besieging the city, and they shot arrows at the city. With a "whoosh", an arrow flew a guard who was holding a stone, and hit the arrow stack on the other side. (To be continued......)
