Chapter 345: The Trap
At this time, Ji Ling, who had arrived under the city, suddenly lit up his eyes.
Originally, I only hoped that it would be good for the inner body of the city to help me create chaos, but I didn't expect them to open the city gate directly. There is a saying that is widely circulated among strangers, how do you say it? Well, I just wanted to harvest a green leaf, but you gave me the whole forest!
Then what are you hesitating about, just rush in.
"The city is broken, kill!" With Ji Ling shouting, almost all the troops who were waiting under the city to prepare to ascend the city rushed to the city gate.
Because he and Yan Liang were in the middle of the city gate, preparing to enter the city to fight, they were still some distance away from the city gate, but they were separated by the large army that rushed into the city at this time, and they could only wait anxiously.
It stands to reason that if he and Yan Liang's backslaught army enter the city first, the hope of breaking the city will be greater, after all, a small number of elites should open the city gate, relying on the suddenness of the enemy's unpreparedness, at this time the defenders must be rushing towards the city gate with all their might, but unfortunately they are not prepared in advance, and they can only watch.
However, although it was not the Beiwei army that entered the city at this time, it was also the Qi family's army, so the result should be almost the same, but the delay may be longer.
What he didn't know was that it was precisely because of his lack of preparation that he and Yan Liang escaped, otherwise, they would probably have to confess here today.
After entering the city, there are wide streets in the left, right, and forward directions, and from the city gate you can crowd and suddenly enter the three-forked street that can divert the crowd, forming a natural diversion. All the soldiers who entered the city didn't have time to think about it at all, and rushed passionately in three directions.
At this time, the soldiers of the Yuan army who entered the city had no way to retreat, so they could only move forward and move forward!
When the soldiers at the forefront of the crowd rushed forward for two or three hundred meters, they found the horses, ravines, obstacles, etc. on the street in front of them, and finally felt that something was wrong.
If the gates were suddenly opened, how could there be defenses in the streets, and ditches dug up?
It's a pity that I didn't have time to think about it, there were already thousands of arrows in all directions, and as the front of the team, they were quickly shot down by arrows, and before they fell, they even saw the huge and cold edge of the siege crossbow!
On the rooftops and windows on both sides of the street, behind the obstacles at the front of the street, and above the city, there were arrows flying everywhere, and even one or two huge bed crossbows and siege crossbow arrows could occasionally be seen, passing through a long line of corpses and flying blood all the way!
On the head of the city directly above the city gate, the defenders of the city casually threw a stone or a wooden stick down, and they all knocked down the enemy, and the killing efficiency was incomparably high. What's more, at this time, on the head of the city directly above the city gate, a mountain of stones, sasswood, etc., has long been prepared, not only to kill the enemy, but also to block it.
According to Ye Teng's plan, if there are too many enemy troops pouring into the city gate, which is beyond the digestion ability of the defenders in the city, he will directly throw all these stones and sassals down, which can not only kill the enemy, but also block the enemy, killing two birds with one stone!
At this time, the ordinary third-order soldiers above the city gate were constantly handing the materials for defending the city to the Beiwei army near the female wall to improve the efficiency of killing the enemy. Of course, the backing army is controlling the rhythm at this time, and if it throws too fast and blocks the enemy outside the city, it will not be able to kill the enemy's living force to the greatest extent.
Countless soldiers of the Yuan army who braved the wood and stones at the head of the city and rushed into the city with high morale fell on the road before they had time to face even one enemy. But Yuan Jun outside the city didn't know what was going on in the city. What's more, since the start of the battle in Lingshou City, after attacking outside the city for so long, with millions of casualties, it is not easy to open the city gate inside, if you hesitate at this time, once the city gate is closed again by the defenders, will you not regret it?
As for the possibility of trapping, in any battle, the offensive and defensive sides will not be 100% sure, what can be done if they are afraid of wolves and tigers?
As a result, the Yuan army outside the city charged happily, and the defenders inside the city harvested their lives efficiently, and only the earth-shattering shouts and screams were heard all around, and the soldiers in the distance did not really understand what was happening. I only knew that the fighting was fierce inside, so I kept sending troops over to support.
More than an hour has passed, and the corpses of the soldiers of the Yuan family in the three streets of the city have been paved layer after layer, and the defenders have begun to be exhausted, and the arrows are almost exhausted.
"Raise the blue flag!" Ye Teng finished shooting an arrow, and without looking at the result, he pulled out another arrow and commanded without looking back. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Teng practiced his proficiency in archery by the way, and strived to promote archery to the master level as soon as possible.
"Yes!" The guards behind him turned around and carried out.
——————————
"General, the lord has raised the blue flag!" A scout reports to Xu Huang.
"Got it!" Xu Huang waved his hand and walked quickly towards the top of the city gate.
"Block it with all your might!" Without waiting to get closer, Xu Huang commanded loudly!
Suddenly, whether it was on the inside or outside the city, the back army above the city gate poured stones and wood down with all their might. Some generals don't even throw them piece by piece, but dump them directly from the storage ring! Some of the Yuan family under the city gate were not stoned to death, but were directly buried inside.
At this time, Yan Liang and Ji Ling had just squeezed near the city gate, and by the light of the fire, looking at the scene in front of them, their hearts began to sink: the defenders had been prepared for a long time, and the defeat was decided! It's time to prepare for the retreat.
It's just that the soldiers of the Yuan army who have entered the city have no way to withdraw. There are only two paths before them, Descend or Die!
As the stones and wood piled up under the city gate to a height of more than three meters, I don't know who was in despair, first threw away their weapons and fell to their knees, and the others also knelt down one after another and gave up resistance.
Of course, they had not organized any effective resistance before, and they were besieged and covered by thousands of arrows in front and back, left and right, how to resist?
"Stop! Stop shooting! Seeing that the enemy army had already fallen to his knees, Ye Teng hurriedly stopped the soldiers who were still shooting.
Finally, the trap battle, which lasted for more than an hour, ended.
In this battle, the Yuan army did not break through any defensive facilities in the city, and the number of Zhenbei troops killed was less than 100 people, and they were basically blindly wounded by cold arrows! And on the street, Yuan Jun's body was piled up nearly a meter high.
The Yuan family, who knelt on top of the heavy corpses, surrendered to the soldiers, and their bodies trembled! And under their knees, the blood of their comrades-in-arms is still bubbling. This scene will become a nightmare that will haunt them for a lifetime!
The battlefield suddenly fell silent, and there were only hundreds of Yuan troops blocked by wood and stones in the city gate cave that still had not surrendered. advancing, ambushing countless soldiers; Retreat, a few who tried to climb over the wooden and stone walls failed to avoid the roll call of the archers at the head of the city.
"Climb into the city and surrender, we won't kill you!" Dian Wei took pity on their dilemma and shouted.
In the end, more than 200 Yuan troops obediently climbed into the city from the hole in the city gate and surrendered.
Since then, the siege battle of the Yuan army has officially ended, with countless casualties and no hope of breaking the city, so he has to prepare to withdraw his troops!
"The order, the Iron Eagle Warriors, the Han Army's Iron Cavalry, and the Beiwei Army that can still fight quickly assemble and prepare to chase the enemy! The rest of the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield and held the city! Ye Teng's order sounded in the ears of the soldiers.
"No!" All the generals involved bowed down to receive the order and quickly conveyed the order.
