knew that what Li Ru said was right, but Dian Wei was a little unwilling, and seeing his brothers die one by one in the defense of the city, his heart was even more uncomfortable.

"Commander, we still have enough fresh troops to participate in the counteroffensive, why do we have to defend so passively, now the opening is getting bigger and bigger, and our soldiers rushing up will not play a big role at all, on the contrary, they are still enemies on all sides, and they are simply going to die." The deputy corps commander Ma Yu was unwilling to squeeze in front of Dian Wei.

At this moment, Ma Yu had just retreated with the remnants of the Eight Regiments, and he knew that it was uncomfortable for a pair of people, so he didn't wipe his blood without wiping it, so he came to Dian Wei and began to complain and tell about the injustice and the wrongness of the tactics.

"Okay, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person, I will command this battle, I have the final say on how to fight, you retreat." How did Dian Wei not know that what Ma Play said was right? However, if they fought back now, it would inevitably frighten Peter's army, and even make them retreat because of this, if they did, they would not be able to take this opportunity to inflict heavy losses on the enemy. The so-called small intolerable is a big plan, for the victory of the overall situation, Dian Wei at this moment can only sacrifice local interests.

"Legion Commander..."Seeing that Dian Wei didn't listen to his own admonition, Ma Yu was unconvinced, "If you still insist on going your own way like this, I will definitely play the emperor to participate in you." ”

"I'll tell you to step down." Hearing that the horse was going to participate in himself, Dian Wei couldn't cry or laugh. Could it be that this is not the failure of his six legions, watching his brothers die in battle, he will only be more uncomfortable as the commander of the legion.

"No!" The horse stubbornly raised his head, a picture of me not retreating if you don't care.

"You step down for me, or military law will be involved." Dian Wei was also angry, and some of his subordinates didn't listen to him, which was obviously a failure as a legion commander, so he roared angrily.

This roar shocked the horse play, he saw Dian Wei's eyes red, and he had been fighting with him for many years, and he knew the temper of the legion commander so he had to stomp his foot and retreat.

Ma Wan retreated and walked in front of General Yan Liang, the deputy commander of another legion, who was waiting for the call to join the battle.

Yan Liang has been observing this scene for a long time, he has the same analysis of the battle situation as Ma Wan, and he is also very optimistic about such a refueling tactic, thinking that if it goes on like this, it can only be a huge loss, and it will not play a too important role in defending the city.

It's just that although he has such an understanding, Yan Liang really didn't dare to go to Dian Wei and say that he didn't look like a horse to play, as a member of the Ma family, there was a dragon cavalry corps leader Ma Chao who took care of him, Dian Wei didn't look at the monk's face and looked at the Buddha's face, and he wouldn't treat him like that. But he's different, if you insist on going up to distinguish it, it's not good to get one, and it's possible to get on the top ten military sticks.

"Deputy Commander Ma, doesn't the Legion Commander agree to change the tactics?" Although he guessed the result, when he waited for the horse to return, Yan Liang still took the initiative to ask.

"The legion commander disagrees, but I will write a recital on this matter, I believe that the emperor is wise, and this matter will definitely give an explanation to the dead brothers." Ma Yu was forced to retreat, and his face was still very bad at this moment, and if he looked closely, he could still see the angry look.

"Yes, I can also write a recital." Yan Liang listened to the words of the horse and said in agreement. As a former general under Yuan Shao, he is still very conceited, and even thinks that with his own ability, even being a corps commander is qualified. At worst, he is very brave, and he will not make the mistakes that Dianwei made at the moment.

Under the city tower, because of Dian Wei's tactics, there are more and more Rus soldiers on the city tower. Under the tower, General Peter watched the scene with a satisfied smile on his face.

It is said that the Celestial Empire's army is extraordinary and not easy to mess with, but the rumors have proved to be not credible, at least in this battle, he did not see the powerful side of the Celestial Empire's army.

"General, our soldiers have rushed up to the castle tower and basically occupied it, so why not send a large army to storm and strive for a greater victory?" A lieutenant came to Peter, who was very good at reading words and feelings, and when he saw that the general was in a good mood, he made a proposal to send troops with all his might.

"Yes. I will order the army to attack on all fronts, and I will take the city today, and I will capture Utkin and Matvi alive, and then lay their bodies on the city wall for three days, and I will let all those who belong to Prince Ivan know the fate of opposing the Great Prince. Peter said with a fierce look on his face.

"Yes." After hearing this, the adjutant general happily agreed, and then happily went to pass on his life.

Peter's army began to attack the city with all its might, and the number of soldiers who went up to the tower became more and more numerous, and soon the six legions and the ninth army were also defeated.

When the 10th Regiment was ordered to storm the tower, General Matwei finally rushed to the tower with 20,000 soldiers, and after seeing that the situation here was basically under the control of the other party, he hurriedly came to Dian Wei and said: "General Dian, why don't you order the army to go together, but want to charge one regiment at a time?" If this is the case, I am afraid that the city will not be able to hold it. ”

Even Matvey saw the drawbacks of the tactics, and Dian Wei really didn't know what to explain. He wanted to say that this was what the military advisor meant, but this seemed to be a little less assertive. He was simply trying to explain, but the target was indeed staring at the south of the city on the other side.

The land south of the city is the only way for the Celestial Empire army to enter Hai Paulan, and Dian Wei is looking to see when the reinforcements will arrive.

Maybe it was because he was looking forward to reinforcements too much, Dian Wei actually saw a black battle flag faintly appear outside the south city gate, which made him rub his eyes in disbelief.

When he looked carefully for the second time, he saw that there was indeed an army in black coming from afar, he was excited, this must be the emperor's army has arrived.

Li Rujun once said that as soon as reinforcements arrived, they could consider a large-scale counteroffensive. So as soon as he turned to look at Matvey, he said, "General Ma, I want to trouble you to lead a large army to counter the charge with us, this time we will definitely take control of the tower." ”

"Okay, as long as the main force of the Sixth Legion is exhausted, I will naturally fully cooperate." Matvey was not stupid, he thought that Dian Wei wanted to let him bring his soldiers to death, so he deliberately said that he must attack with the main force of the Sixth Legion.

"Absolutely." Unexpectedly, for this request, Dian Wei agreed without even hesitation, and then saw his big hand wave, and immediately Yan Liang and Ma Wan, who had been waiting in the distance, came over.

"Two, now I order you in the name of the corps commander to bring a division of men and horses to fight back with General Ma and regain control of the West City Tower." Dian Wei also seemed to be a different person at this moment, and he was much more energetic when he spoke.

Finally able to fight back, Yan Liang and Ma Yu both agreed excitedly, only Matvey on the side asked with a tangled look on his face: "General Dian, we can go up, but if Peter also presses the army, I'm afraid that our little strength is not enough at all." ”

"Haha, I'm afraid he won't come. Rest assured, as long as Peter comes, he will not even be given a chance to escape. Okay, you guys do what I say, and the commander of this corps will mobilize more troops to participate in the counterattack on all fronts. Dian Wei laughed, after these days, he can finally fight with Peter, how can he not be excited?

Knowing that Dian Wei was not going to die himself, but really decided to fight back, Matvey finally had confidence, "Okay, that's the case, we'll help the general." ”

A total of 40,000 people began to counterattack, because before it was a counterattack of only 2,000 men from one regiment, and it was not in the eyes of Peter's army at all, but now twenty regiments came out at once, and 40,000 people counterattacked on the city tower, but they were killed by surprise.

"Not good, General, they are starting a counteroffensive." A battlefield messenger hurriedly ran up to Peter, who was smiling, and knelt on the ground and said worriedly.

"Oh? Counterattack? Hehe, I'm afraid it's the last struggle. Tell the generals, don't worry so much, this general will personally lead the army to follow, in short, today must take Hybolan, capture Utkin and Matvi alive. "Peter, who felt that he had long known the strength of the Celestial Empire's army, saw that victory was on the horizon, how could he put the enemy in his eyes?

In this way, after eight days of fighting, the real confrontation between the two sides began, and when a large number of troops were invested, the cruelty of the war became more and more apparent, only half an hour later, the western wall of Hepolan was stained red with blood, and even the blood flowing down the city wall went straight down.

The city walls, which are not very wide, are full of people from both sides, and everyone is crowded with people coming and going, and with a large number of troops invested, no one can hope to gain the upper hand in a short time.

The war seems to have fallen into a stalemate, and if neither side withdraws, it will be difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser, and it seems that only if one side is hit hard can the war end.

And at this moment, the gate of the city of Hip Paolan suddenly opened from the inside, and then countless cavalry peaks in black armor poured out, like a flood that opened the gates without end.

The sudden appearance of these black-armored armies stunned everyone's eyes, and from a distance, the number was simply uncountable. What's more, these soldiers are wearing brand new uniforms, and they look like soldiers who have not yet been on the battlefield.

"Where did so many enemies come from? What's going on? "Seeing so many cavalry coming out of the city gate, General Peter, who saw this scene, was stunned, the battle has been fought for so long, where are there still so many cavalry available in the Celestial Empire? Could it be that new reinforcements are coming?
