Chapter 458: Heroic
Looking at the three hundred horsemen who were trapped in the encirclement and gradually dying, a trace of contempt rose in Ji Ling's heart. In the face of a steady stream of enemy soldiers, in the face of the absolute disadvantage in troops, it is unthinkable that the defenders in the city would dare to send a few hundred horsemen to attack the siege vehicles, which is no different from sending them to death.
The battle between the two sides seemed to be inextricably separated outside Panyang City, but in his heart he knew that as long as the whole army attacked, it could be easily captured.
But after thinking about it, it is also a matter of course, although there was a battle between Yuzhang County and Changsha County, but those main forces were all soldiers of Gan Ning's department. And more than a year has passed since this incident, and the blades above and below Yu Zhang must have long been rusted. In this land south of the Yangtze River, there is naturally no fighting spirit.
"Attack"
"Attack"
A loud voice rolled from the front to all directions, and a burly man pushed the siege vehicle and slammed it against the city gate. The soldiers on the left and right sides were all glowing with bloodthirsty light. Panyang City, here is Panyang City of Yuzhang County, the richest county in the south of the Yangtze River.
rumble
There was a loud bang.
With the impact of the siege engine, the entire city gate shook a little.
A huge amount of damage appeared in front of him, and the health bar on the city gate was almost a tenth less.
Cheng Yu, who was standing in the city tower, looked a little heavy, his eyes were looking around, as if he was looking for something.
The flags of both sides hunted in the wind, and the boundless killing aura gradually spread, and then two phantoms appeared in the sky, like two fierce beasts with teeth and claws roaring at each other.
rumble
Another loud bang.
The gate shook again, and the health bar above it was missing by a tenth.
Suddenly, the eyes of the soldiers on both sides were attracted by the siege vehicle at the same time, and the crossbowmen standing on the city wall also changed their targets, and almost simultaneously locked on the city gate below.
"Shoot the Arrow"
Woohoo......
A rain of arrows roared in the sky with the breath of death.
The enemy soldiers on both sides of the road moved out of the way, and then saw the layers of shield walls appear above, firmly protecting the siege engines below. Not only did it isolate the attack of the rain of arrows, but it also isolated the gaze from the city gate.
Obviously, Ji Ling had been prepared for this.
Bang bang bang......
A series of sounds appeared on the city walls, and I saw iron hooks bound with ropes fly out of the cracks in the shield walls, followed by countless figures of fitness climbing up the ropes.
The sound of clashing blades was heard, and as the enemy soldiers climbed the walls, the flames of battle spread across the walls.
"Kill"
"Kill"
The shouting of killing was deafening, and a layer of cold sweat appeared behind Cheng Yu's back.
Unexpectedly, 2,000 soldiers and horses were defeated so quickly under the attack of 5,000 tired soldiers, so fast that people were caught off guard.
It is worthy of being the elite of the perennial expedition to Shanyue, and it is really not comparable to the defenders stationed in the rear. Fortunately, the lord and General Deng Dang were ambushed, otherwise Panyang City would have been in danger.
"I thought that this Yuzhang soldiers and horses would be so majestic, but I didn't expect it to be so vulnerable."
"What did you ask five thousand soldiers and horses to repair if you knew this? It's better to take this city in one go."
Looking at the crumbling Panyang City, Ji Ling said with a proud face.
The four words "vulnerable" appeared in the hearts of the generals almost at the same time, and the battle intent in those eyes became a little stronger again.
"It's ridiculous, Yuzhang has no owner to watch out for each other, and at this time of life and death, the main force actually changed guards. Now most of the soldiers and horses have been dragged on the front line of Chaohu Lake, and we have waited for nothing."
"Wouldn't it be nice if all the world's wars could be so easy?"
The soldiers spoke loudly, their tones full of lightness.
I thought Yu Zhang was a tiger, but when I turned my head, I saw that it was actually a docile puppy, and the joy brought by this huge contrast was naturally indescribable. And I heard that Yuzhang County is extremely prosperous, it is a bright pearl in Yangzhou, if you can rush in and loot it, wouldn't it be a hair?
Thinking of this, the generals licked their lips almost at the same time.
"Yes, if all the wars in the world are like this, it will be a good thing for us."
"Yuzhang County has generally been in a peaceful situation over the years, although the world is in chaos. But first, the war did not spread here, and secondly, the surrounding Sangoe has been shared by the other three counties, which is why this situation is now."
"The general is right, after all, they haven't been on any battlefield, where can they compare to our elites who have been killed from the sea of corpses and blood."
All the generals echoed Ji Ling.
Listening to these voices, Ji Ling's pride in his heart suddenly became a little stronger.
"Yuzhang is weak, it is when our army obtains this county for the lord"
"Without further ado, do you dare to take this city? Open the way to the hinterland of Yuzhang"
"Wish"
The generals shouted in unison.
The strong battle intent was intertwined with each other, and the eyes flashed with excitement.
Ji Ling was also unambiguous, and commanded the generals around him.
"Point a thousand soldiers and storm Panyang City"
"No"
All the generals received the order at the same time, and then several generals turned around and walked quickly behind.
Listening to the footsteps that were gradually moving away, Ji Ling's heart couldn't help but be reassured, in fact, only the three thousand soldiers and horses who were storming Panyang City could take this city. But sending a thousand troops can ensure that it is foolproof, and besides, the soldiers are fast and they don't have much time to delay.
Knock knock
Dense drumbeats emerge on the drums, followed by the sound of war drums.
Cheng Yu subconsciously grabbed the railing in front of him, as if he had turned over the river and the sea. The city gate was already crumbling, and the three thousand soldiers and horses thought that they had fallen into a decline, but they didn't want Ji Ling to send a thousand troops to attack again, but they were afraid that the city was about to break. Why hasn't the general shown up yet? Is something going on?
Doubts arose in his heart, Cheng Yu looked at the approaching figure and quickly dispelled the distracting thoughts.
Slowly drew the saber at his waist and shouted at the top of his voice.
"Fight to the Death"
"Fight to the Death"
As the sound sounded in their ears, the soldiers who were guarding the city wall were all filled with the will to die.
A faint light swirled around his body, and his momentum continued to rise.
The sneer on the corner of Ji Ling's mouth became a little thicker when he looked at this scene, and he was just dying. When you capture this city, it will be the time for you to die in Huangquan.
"I wish to take this city with Ben"
"Wish"
"Pass the order, and the whole army will storm Panyang City"
"No"
Behind him, thousands of soldiers shouted loudly, and the banner representing the identity of the main general slowly moved forward.
The soldiers followed Ji Ling's steps and rushed forward.
The soldiers of the Ji Ling Division, who were fighting, saw the banner that was hunting in the wind, and their morale skyrocketed, almost climbing to a critical point. The 2,000 defenders were defeated under the onslaught, and every inch of the city wall was gradually lost in the watering of blood.
"The General Has Orders"
"If you don't take this city, you won't withdraw your troops"
"Kill"
"Kill"
The voice slashed down like thunder, and with the banner of the main general that was gradually moving forward, the battle intent of Ji Ling's department swept in all directions. A phantom image burst out of the sky, and at this moment it seemed to turn into a pack of wolves and pounce forward.
