Chapter 48: Conquering Xinyi County
Many of the ladders were overturned by the officers and soldiers, and many of the homeless people were smashed into meat sauce, but more ladders were erected on the city walls.
Soon the first soldier broke through the obstacles and finally climbed to the top of the ladder.
"Kill!"
One of the battalion guards here stabbed his spear fiercely, trying to stab the veteran down.
Unexpectedly, the stabbed spear was dodged by the veteran, who grabbed the spear and pulled it violently.
The battalion guards clutching their bayonet guns stood unsteadily, and in their panic, they were dragged off the city wall and fell down to the city.
The veteran propped up the edge of the wall with one hand and jumped into it with a leap of his body.
He was very experienced, and after landing a few rolls, he dodged a few stabbing guns.
"Poofโ"
The veteran soldier who had dodged the bayonet slashed clockwise with his sword, and the three huge heads flew high.
Lei Senjun saw that the elite soldiers were on the top of the city, and they were fighting fiercely, his expression was excited, and he turned to look at Zhang Wuwu.
Zhang Wuwu's eyes were resolute, observing the fierce battle on the city, and the officers and troops were sending additional reinforcements, intending to eliminate the veterans and homeless people. However, several veterans cooperated closely, so that there were no gaps, and the lives of officers and soldiers were efficiently harvested, and the fallen corpses were covered with the ground. The two sides were at a stalemate for a while.
"Ray joins the army and lets the brothers kill it."
"No!"
Outside Xinyi County, the elite veterans are in a strict formation, standing on the wilderness like a heavy mountain, and the military is majestic.
The elite soldiers armed with sharp spears, bayonets, and shields stood silently, silently exuding a fierce aura of slaughter.
The fierce battles have made the elite veterans brave and resolute, and the ferocity in their bones has also burst out, and they are eager to kill, eager to step on the corpses of their enemies to survive.
"Be the first to attack the county seat! 100 Gold Rewards! โ
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
......
The strict elite veteran army formation let out a wave of shouts, and the army was at its peak.
Hearing the shouts of the elite veterans, whether it was Cheng Cheng and others standing on the county wall, or the officers and soldiers guarding the city wall, their faces were extremely solemn.
The elite veterans who were waiting for them were like tigers coming out of the gate, pounced swiftly and deadly, like waves surging onto the city walls.
Scattered corpses were scattered from the top of the city, crisscrossed by the walls, already piled into small hills, and blood flowed from the cracks of the overlapping corpses. There was a hissing cry in Xinyi County, and almost every moment was in jeopardy.
There was a great chaos on the head of the city due to the breakthrough of elite veterans, and the two sides fought hard, blood gushed out, and people continued to fall and crash and roll down. Like a blade, it tore through the defense line of the officers and soldiers.
An elite veteran who rushed to the front didn't even use a weapon, carrying a big flag, a flag of dozens of pounds swept over, carrying a hunting hurricane, sweeping over a piece of officers and soldiers, and the elite veterans behind took the opportunity to rush up, slashing and stabbing down with knives and guns, wailing.
Xinyi County Ling Cheng Cheng saw that the official army was losing and retreating, and knew that the county seat would be breached if it continued like this.
The battle lasted three days and three nights, tens of thousands of displaced people died in the siege, and the enemy also broke out many frantic attacks, but they still resisted the city wall several times.
But today there are signs of not being able to hold on, and at this time, the head of the hundred households next to him saw that the county seat could no longer be held.
"My lord, the county town can't hold it, the people who rushed up are former elite soldiers, we can't resist it, run quickly! If it's late, you can't run. โ
"Hey! Shame on the court! Liang Taishou had a secret order for us to retreat to the dock fort of the Yuan clan and continue to resist the exiles. โ
When the surrounding officials heard that it was Taishou's secret order, they were immediately shocked, although they didn't know the reason, but at least they didn't let them go to martyrdom.
"This official has already transported the grain, money, etc. to Yuan's Dock Fort in advance."
"My lord, aren't you afraid that the Yuan family will swallow these belongings privately?"
"Humph! Otherwise, how could the Yuan Clan allow us to enter their dock fort, and besides, they would have to be useful! Cheng Xianling secretly guessed some possibilities.
"Everyone quickly left the county seat from the north gate, and the officer led the remaining officers and soldiers into the dock fort, waiting for the reinforcements sent by the Taishou to arrive."
"Yes, my lord" Cheng Xianling stood on the city wall, looking at the black homeless people from a distance, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.
"Let's collect our troops and leave!"
"No!" The two hundred households hurriedly prepared for the retreat, summoned the remaining officers and soldiers to leave slowly from the north gate, and accelerated their pace to escort Cheng Xian Ling to the fields in the north.
Elite veterans rushed into Xinyi County, and almost no resistance was held, occupying the camp defense school, the armament warehouse, the county office, the granary, the thousand warehouse, etc.
"Report, one in the general's granary
