Text Chapter 369 The Corpse Mountain and the Sea of Blood are in Jincheng
"Ahh Yes! Yes! ”
With a large number of thunder stones and rolling logs being smashed down, followed by the countless fire oil and gold juice, the Jin soldiers who were desperately climbing up the ladder were like dumplings, crackling and falling from the city wall several zhang high, falling to the ground, either being smashed to pieces, or breaking arms and legs, for a time under the Jin City was like hell on earth, every minute and every second there were people on both sides who died.
But the war is so cruel, even if it is so tragic, Cui Daocheng still looks at it with a cold face, injuring 1,000 enemies and losing 800 self-losses, not to mention siege warfare, since ancient times, it has been a success and ten thousand bones.
Ma Zhen's big knife in the hand on the city wall was stained with the blood of countless Jin soldiers, and his body was also dripping with blood, like a hellish ghost, Shura killed the gods, and there were only less than 5,000 military horses in the city, even if they were all pressed up, they could not resist the fierce attack of the Jin army, so in desperation, Ma Zhen personally went into battle, with a hundred guards, blocking and killing in the west, which was worthy of defending the city.
Time passed little by little, from the morning directly to the dark, see that the sky has already darkened, Cui Daocheng then ordered Mingjin to withdraw the troops, today's Linjin battle, enough for him to lose more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, and the officers and soldiers in the city are also heavy losses, direct losses of nearly 1,000 men and horses.
Looking at the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood under Linjin City, although it was said that he had won, Ma Zhen was not happy at all, and he lost one-fifth of his troops in one day today, no matter how the loss continued, he could only hold Linjin City for five days.
"Alas!" Ma Zhen sighed and said to the adjutant general next to him: "Tell the brothers, clean up the battlefield outside the city, and carry our soldiers and the soldiers of the Jin army to the woods outside the city and bury them." ”
The adjutant general next to him heard Ma Zhen's words, and asked with some puzzlement: "General, our brother can't take care of it, why do you want to mention the enemy to collect the corpse." ”
Seeing that the deputy general was indignant there, Ma Zhen smiled, and then said: "Don't have any more emotions, the dead are the greatest, they are all low-level soldiers, and they can't help themselves, but the hateful thing is the leader of the anti-thieves, this person is just to eat for a while, burying them can be regarded as our accumulation of yin virtue, so that they can bless us to defend Linjin City under Jiuquan." ”
"Yes, I will go here." The lieutenant replied and turned to leave.
Ma Zhen got off the city wall, ate a hasty meal, filled his stomach, and began to arrange night patrols, in order to prevent the Jin army from sneaking up at night, Ma Zhen simply moved his residence to the city wall.
Not to mention the official army, just say that Cui Daocheng Mingjin collected his troops and returned to the camp, counted the number of people, and lost more than 2,300 people in today's battle, which is one-tenth.
"Master Cui, the official army in Jincheng is so elite, I led 6,000 men and horses to attack non-stop in turn, and even lost more than 2,000 horses, so if we continue like this, there will not be much left of our soldiers and horses." Ma Yuan walked in with his whole body draped, and there were still blood stains left by the battle on his body, and he hugged his fist towards the pioneer officer Cui Daocheng and said.
Hearing Ma Yuan's words, Cui Daocheng smiled slightly, didn't say anything, but Han Bolong next to him said: "Hahaha, Brother Ma Yuan, don't be anxious, we have suffered heavy losses, and the officers and troops in Linjin City have also suffered heavy losses, we have 20,000 troops, but the officers and troops are definitely not more than 5,000 people. ”
"Besides, what are those soldiers, in my eyes they are just grass mustard, if they die, they will die, as long as they capture Linjin and go straight to Hezhong Mansion, don't say two thousand, even twenty thousand are also willing, and when you and my brother break through Hezhong Mansion, when the time comes, you will be added to the rank and enter the knighthood, are you afraid that there will be no military horses under your hands?"
Listening to Han Bolong's explanation, Ma Yuan suddenly realized, there was no anxiety just now, and he laughed along, Cui Daocheng pressed his hand and said: "According to the current situation, the officials and troops in Linjin City will not be able to support it for long, and tomorrow the Han Bolong brothers will storm Linjin with 6,000 men and horses, and we will use our lives to kill the officials and soldiers, and it will be easy for Linjin City at that time." ”
"Order!" The two of them hugged their fists in a deep way and said in unison.
The next day, it was still early in the morning, and the Jin army came to the bottom of Linjin City early, and before Ma Zhen could react, Han Bolong rushed directly with two thousand soldiers and horses.
Shouting and killing, Ma Zhen hurriedly ran over, and saw that the Jin army began to attack the city without even saying hello, and secretly scolded despicable, but there was no way, so he could only order to meet the enemy.
This time Ma Zhen learned smartly, last night Ma Zhen didn't sleep all night, thinking about the way to resist the enemy, it really made him think of one, that is, fire attack, people say that fire and water are ruthless, fire can not only be used for offense, but also for defense.
Seeing that the Jin army was getting closer and closer, Ma Zhen gave an order, and the rain of arrows was still overwhelmingly shooting towards the Jin army, and the Jin soldiers were shot by feather arrows and fell to the ground, or directly screamed for their lives, or wailed vigorously.
Seeing the enemy army falling one by one, Ma Zhen nodded with satisfaction, it is impossible for bows and arrows to block the enemy's attack, but a large number of consumption thieves can still be used, obviously his goal has been achieved, and indeed these waves of bows and arrows have taken away at least four or five hundred Jin soldiers.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer military horses charging, Cui Daocheng couldn't sit still watching the battle from behind, and said at the moment: "What is that Han Bolong doing?" Why don't you press all the soldiers and horses up, don't give the officers and soldiers in the city the slightest respite, go quickly! ”
After Han Bolong in front got Cui Daocheng's order, he also smiled bitterly, the siege battle should not be rushed, what is fought is the endurance and tenacity of both sides, so rashly press all the soldiers and horses, in case something happens, it is too late to retreat, but he is not the main general, Cui Daocheng gave an order and he had to listen, and immediately waved his hand to press all the men and horses, and he also rushed out with a big knife.
Sure enough, as soon as 6,000 men and horses swarmed up, the pressure on the defenders of Linjin City increased in an instant, and gradually it became a little unsupportable, and Linjin City was crumbling.
Seeing that the champion was about to be unable to hold on, Cui Daocheng nodded proudly and said: "That's right, who is fighting a war, there are many people, one drum, then decline, three and exhaustion, it seems that today we can drink wine and eat meat in Linjin City, hahaha." ”
Cui Daocheng was proud, and Ma Yuan next to him also laughed loudly, and said: "Just 5,000 soldiers and horses think that they can stop the progress of my 20,000 army. ”
Ma Zhen on the city wall saw that it was almost there, all the people and horses of the Jin army under the city, and all the six thousand people were blocked at the bottom, and the girl forked a large area, and Ma Zhen shouted loudly at the moment, and said: "Order!" Thunder stone rolling wood, smash it all down for Lao Tzu! ”
"Kill!" The long knife in Ma Zhen's hand cut down the Jin soldiers who rushed to the city wall, and then personally picked up a log and put it on the female wall of the city wall
"Let's go down!" Ma Zhen's arms competed, and the fireball directly hit Ma Zhen with a knife, and at the same time, dozens of fireballs flew out of the city wall and smashed towards the Jin army team under the city.
"Brothers, kill ............ Yes! Yes! Yes! Run, run! The soldiers of the Jin army, who were shouting and killing below, suddenly looked up and saw a cloud of fireballs swarming all over the sky, and they were frightened at the moment, shouted hysterically, and were about to run behind them.
But at this time, the city of Linjin was already crowded with Jin soldiers, Yaya forked, and it was too late to run, and the Jin army under the city was in chaos, crying dad and calling mother, I couldn't wait to have wings on my ribs and fly out of this fateful place.
"You fucking get out of the way, get out of the way, run!"
"Don't get in my way, the big fireball is coming!"
"Poof!" Gradually, the Jin army under the city became more and more chaotic, and some of them directly pulled out the knives on their waists and slashed them in order to escape for their lives, preparing to kill a bloody road.
