In the brutal fighting, the sky gradually darkened.

At this time in the past, the coalition forces had already withdrawn their troops, and the smell of wounded medicine and food could be smelled everywhere in the camp. But today, even though the soldiers have been fighting hard for a day, the wrestlers who beat the drums have rotated five or six waves, but they still haven't stopped.

Offensive! Attack again!

Chen Wu was not carried away by the advantage of the day, he knew very well that the rebels were able to gain the upper hand on the scene today, and a large part of it was to take advantage of the surprise. If the officers and soldiers are given a night to adjust their time and let them breathe, tomorrow's battle will be much more difficult. Therefore, even if you can't break through Wu'an today, you must exert as much pressure as possible to kill and injure the officers and soldiers to the greatest extent.

Under his command, the Volunteer Battalion of the Taiping Army and the Dharma Protector Buddha soldiers of the Good Friends Association took turns to attack the city, and launched a tug-of-war with the official army. Many of the brigades that had been repulsed in the morning were now sent out for the second time after a half-day break.

Such a bitter battle has never been fought since the rebels began, and it will inevitably cause complaints and backlash. But with General Tiangong's current prestige in the righteous army, it is enough to suppress these objections!

What's more, it was not them who worked hardest, but the step archers on the two arrow towers!

The number of archers of the officers and soldiers is only a lot more than that of the coalition army. The archers of the Taiping Army and the Good Friends Association had to compete with the archers of the official army, and they also had to cooperate with their own infantry to shoot the soldiers defending the city, and the pressure was really great. Although they did not suffer too many casualties due to the dual protection of the arrow tower and leather armor, the continuous opening of the bow undoubtedly caused a great burden on the arms and palms.

Almost all of them were sore, and a few were even red and swollen. It looks shocking.

Previously took advantage of a short gap. After a short rest and a massage with medicinal solution. The soreness seemed to have eased a lot. But after climbing the arrow tower again, he barely shot two rounds, and his previous symptoms quickly worsened. More than a quarter of the archers were forced to lower their bows, including some of the Gaochang people.

This kind of expression made Gao Yueli unbearable.

He is well aware that not everyone has a talent for marksmen, so the requirements for ordinary foot archers are only strict, not to the point of being harsh. But they are also from the Gaochang clan. He will never let down his demands.

At this moment, while continuing to look for valuable targets, he loudly stimulated them: "You have only killed a few enemies, and you are tired of becoming this bear?" Your family is ruined, and what about the revenge promise you made in the prison of Guang'an? If it weren't for the Tiangong General Longen, who rescued everyone, I am afraid that we would have been beheaded a month ago. All the soldiers of our Gaochang clan will give me all their energy, and I will not be allowed to go down the arrow tower without shooting ten people! ”

was re-provoked by Gao Yueli The hatred in his heart was re-provoked, and several Gao Chang shooters who were already too tired to do it. I suddenly remembered the humiliation and despair I had endured at that time. Supported by thoughts of revenge, they quickly picked up their bows again.

Every time you kill an additional enemy. can avenge the dead clansmen, and can also repay the kindness of the heavenly general!

Inspired by their cousins, the other archers on the arrow tower also bracked up their bodies and shot the officers and soldiers on the city.

"Brothers of the Second Garrison Brigade and the First Wing, follow Lao Tzu!"

At this moment, the reinforcements of the officers and troops arrived. At the beginning, a big man wearing chain mail and an extraordinary momentum quickly attracted Gao Yueli's attention. He instinctively felt that that person should have a high status. At the very least, it's a captain, and maybe even a co-captain!

Put it in the former dynasty, or the popular name of the folk, it is a thousand households.

From the time he joined the battle in the afternoon to the present, Gao Yueli had only shot a captain in total. Seeing this rare big fish at this moment, he immediately locked on to his figure. The eyesight cultivated by hunting in the lush mountains and forests for a long time has given Gao Yueli excellent archery skills and tracking ability. Even though the officer had been moving around, the shooting range was often covered by other officers and soldiers, Gao Yueli still did not miss the target.

He's looking for a suitable opportunity!

The defense of the chain mail on the opponent's body is very good, with the distance between the arrow tower and the city wall, unless it is a two-stone hard bow, it is difficult for the empire's standard bow and arrow to shoot through, and it is necessary to find a gap in the armor. After concentrating for about a minute, Gao Yueli finally found an excellent opportunity.

The officer's footsteps stopped, and his face slanted towards the arrow tower, replacing a battered officer brigade under his command.

Distance, angle, wind direction......

Maybe Gao Yueli didn't deliberately calculate, but his instinct and intuition allowed him to come up with the most accurate number in an instant. The bow was as full as the moon, and with a soft sound, the feathered arrows produced by the empire pierced the sky like meteors, and under the effect of eighty percent archery and twenty percent luck, one arrow pierced the throat of the target.

The officer's body shook back violently, let out a few painful groans, and fell to the ground in an instant!

Above the city, the officers and troops of the Second Garrison Brigade were suddenly in chaos.

Several recruit captains who were temporarily promoted were suddenly at a loss, and someone subconsciously shouted: "The captain is dead!" ”

If this army were a purely reorganized force, it would likely fall into a situation where the rebels were leaderless and completely collapsed at the first charge of the rebel army that was besieging the city head-on. However, after all, there was a wing veteran in the 2nd Garrison Brigade. Although a nearby veteran who was the captain of the brigade was also flustered, he was very calm, slapped a few people in the face, scolded loudly, and quickly suppressed the panicked recruit.

"It's a pity."

Gao Yueli hammered the baffle in front of him with some annoyance, and had the intention to shoot the captain who had become the backbone of the backbone. But at this time, the infantry archers of the official army had already noticed him, and two arrows shot in succession. Although they were all stopped by the baffle in front of him, one of the arrows was already at a dangerous angle, and it was only a few centimeters away from flying in from the baffle and shooting him.

In desperation, Gao Yueli could only shrink back for the time being, and at the same time secretly looked for the official archers who were hiding behind the battlements to attack him, preparing to kill those two peers first.

However, even if Gao Yueli's sniping was not fully successful, the support of the official army was still delayed for some time after all.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, more than a dozen Dharma Protector Buddha soldiers chanted the name of Maitreya Buddha, fanatically brandished their weapons, forced back the officers and soldiers who were already only in a row in front of them, and forcibly captured a small section of the city wall that could be used to stand on.

More rebels took the opportunity to rush in.

Seeing that the shape was advantageous, Chen Wu ordered people to prepare follow-up reinforcements, and at the same time, he did not forget to command the people in the new barracks to light a huge bonfire under the city. The piles of bonfires lit up the city a lot, enough to sustain the offensive for another half an hour, until it was completely dark.

………

"The thief is so fierce!"

On the periphery of the city wall far away from the siege section, Lin Anluo, who was watching the battle in person, looked at the scene in front of him, and the feeling in his heart was complicated and indescribable.

In the battle of Xiayang Valley, although he and Ding Ziming were defeated, they were more defeated by stratagem. Even if you know that the combat power of the thief army is not weak, but if you don't see it with your own eyes, you will feel a little contemptuous in your heart. But today's siege, the well-organized command, the siege weapons that are strong enough to suppress the Wu'an official army, and the soldiers whose combat power far exceeds that of ordinary rebels, all make Lin Anluo clearly understand the true weight of the Taiping army.

This is incomparable to any rebellion in the Empire at any time!

Lin Yunwen, who climbed to the top of the city with him, and even Lin Anhe, the head of the Lin family, were also silent. No one expected that this group of rebels, who were initially ignored by the entire Taiping County, would be able to swell to this point in a short period of time. Even a heavy city like Wu'an, in the face of their attack, seemed to be crumbling.

However, this should be their limit, right?

"The thieves' siege is indeed fierce, but this is only an outbreak that they have been accumulating for a long time." Lin Yunwen looked at the bonfire lit under the city, and his face was flat: "Although the official army was suppressed for a while, the price was that their elite main force was rapidly consumed. In today's battle, the main force of the thieves will only be lost by more than 1,000 people. How long can they last with an attack of this intensity? Yunwen felt that if they couldn't capture Wu'an after tomorrow, they would have almost no chance. ”

Lin Anluo's own opinion coincides with the analysis of the eldest son of the Lin family.

He happily said: "Now that it is dark, the officers and soldiers will soon usher in a night's rest. As long as Kanghe can seize the opportunity to make adjustments, it should not be a problem to survive tomorrow's attack. ”

At that time, whether it is the coalition army of the anti-thieves or the Wu'an official army, they will fight to a state of defeat and unsustainability.

Even if the thieves try their best, and finally another wave of Yu Yong attack, there are still private soldiers of the family in the city waiting for them!

This is the Lin family's greatest confidence.

If the nobles of the family in Wu'an City do not move, the thieves are really likely to break through Wu'an. But as long as they make a move, more than 2,000 private soldiers will be mobilized at the critical moment, and the garrison brigade that is comparable to Wu'an in terms of training and equipment is enough to decide the battle situation at the last moment.

In the face of this new force, the thief army could never stop it, and could only suffer a big defeat.

There is hope for breaking through Wu'an, and the thieves can still join forces to attack the city. If they return from a big defeat, they are afraid that their internal contradictions will only explode immediately. There is no need for the official army to chase and kill, either break up by yourself, or simply collapse directly in internal strife!

At that time, the gold and silver wealth plundered by the thief army breaking through Longshan will fall into the hands of the family.

The script has already been written.

The ending is also a great consummation.

A qiē looks great, doesn't it?

"That's a good point, but there's one more thing to remember." Lin Anhe, the head of the Lin family, rolled up his sleeves, glanced at the two of them, and said lightly: "The thief is extremely shrewd, and every step has a deep meaning. In the current situation, most of this person still has a backhand reserve. When the river was filled in before, the thieves filled in the moats on three sides at the same time at any cost. Its intention is by no means to disperse the strength of the officers and soldiers, but it is also afraid that it also hides the mystery of the decisive victory. ”

For smart people, there are some things that don't need to be said at all.

Lin Anhe believes that it is enough to have a mention of his own sentence. (To be continued.) )
