Chapter 314: Attack and Defense of the Compound
It is said to be an ambush, but in fact, it is more appropriate to say that it should be blocked.
Because they didn't have long-range weapons at hand, even if they were in a good position, the veterans who were lying in ambush at the entrance of the alley could only wait for the other party to run in front of them before they could attack. The advantage of choosing this narrow terrain is that the opponent's people can only run out of three or four people at the same time from the intersection, so that their own side can form a numerical advantage in the local area, and block the opponent's advance footsteps with more and less. Of course, the other party is not stupid, and will not stupidly wait behind one by one to take turns from the intersection to die, except for some who continue to try to break through the intersection, the rest of the people quickly choose to take a detour from other roads, and when they detour past, these obstacles will be self-defeating. And that's what the veterans are fighting for.
Just when the blocking battles at the four intersections began one after another, the battle in the town compound had entered a white-hot state. Under the leadership of Zhu Jing, the veterans in charge of the attack finally broke into the town compound at the cost of paying more than 20 corpses, but entering the compound did not mean success, and the remaining enemies still relied on the front hall to organize a second line of defense.
There is nothing fancy about such a battle, it is a life for life. One side is attacking with a numerical advantage, and the other side is relying on geographical advantages to hold on and wait for reinforcements, and the focus of the two sides is actually time!
The reinforcements in the east of the city were the first to break through the blockade, and the veteran in charge of the blockade decisively chose to retreat when he saw this, and withdrew in the direction of the town compound with the remaining few people. Now the safest place in the town for them is the town compound, at least everyone can get together and resist the encirclement and suppression of the rebels.
Then there is the north of the city, and then the south of the city. The west of the city is the earliest to reach the predetermined position and is more fully prepared, so the support time is also the longest. However, when they returned to the town compound, they found that the town compound had been surrounded by the rebels who had returned to the army, and if they wanted to enter the town compound, they had to break through the nearly 200 rebel soldiers who were surrounded outside, and it was tantamount to a fool's dream to rush into it with a team of less than ten of them! Just when they hesitated to get on. A member of the squad ran out from the side and stopped their stupidity.
Now the situation in the town compound is very unfavorable for Zhu Jing and the others, the front hall has not been able to attack for a long time, and the defensive pressure at the gate is also very high, if it goes on like this, the operation will fail!
In a hurry, Zhu Jing couldn't take care of it anymore, and called the leader of the veterans, who was a tun chief. There are more than 200 veterans in Taoyuan Town. It was divided into two tuns, one of which was on the way with a catapult to follow the large army, and the highest status among the veterans in the town was the tun chief in front of him.
"I'll rush in in a moment, I'll try my best to block the rebels' attacks and buy time for my brothers, but the time is very limited, only a second or two at most, and you have to take the opportunity to lead people in. Take the other party's teeth off after I die. You're in command of all the battles in town, understand? Zhu Jing explained with a solemn face.
"Understood!" General Tun is a typical soldier, he didn't talk nonsense, and he took orders directly.
Without further ado, after Zhu Jing finished explaining, he brandished his saber and killed him. It's a completely lifeless way of playing, not only is it not life-threatening, but the key knife slash on his body doesn't seem to have any effect on him, and he gritted his teeth and held it down, and he can even find it. Sometimes he deliberately uses his body to fend off the opponent's weapons in order to create an opportunity for his brother to kill the enemy. In the end, his arms were cut in half, and he forced his body to rush towards the enemy, knocking the enemy in front of him away, and breaking a gap in the door of the front hall. General Tun, who was waiting for an opportunity behind him, took the lead in killing it, and Zhu Jing's tragic tactics deeply infected other veterans, which had nothing to do with whether they could be resurrected, and that kind of spirit alone was enough to make his subordinates awe-inspired. After all, they all know that the taste of that knife on their bodies is really unbearable, and ordinary people can't bear it at all.
Zhu Jing went back to the town ahead of schedule, and with his excellent performance, Tun General led his men to break into the front hall smoothly. Without the barrier of the hall door, the rebels lost their geographical advantage, and soon fell one by one under the siege of the veterans of Taoyuan Town, who were outnumbered.
Like the village compound, there is also an invisible light curtain at the junction of the front hall and the back hall of the town compound, after eliminating the rebel guards, the tun chief immediately led people to besiege this light curtain, and he also knew that if he could not break through this light curtain before the reinforcements outside broke through his own defense, the consequences could be imagined.
It's just that the defense of the light curtain in the town compound is much stronger than that of the village compound, and in such a small space, no matter how many people there are, there are only a few people who can directly attack the light curtain.
The rebel reinforcements also knew that time was urgent, and if anything happened to their own generals, then the following generals would not be able to escape the involvement, so the rebels attacked completely regardless of casualties, which brought great pressure to the veterans who were stubbornly defending.
There were more than sixty veterans killed in the previous attack on the town compound, even if you count the people who withdrew from a few sniper points, there are only more than fifty veterans left in the compound now, except for a few who are constantly attacking the light curtain, the rest of the people are all in front, taking turns to withstand the rebel soldiers who are constantly pouring forward.
General Tun knew that this was not an option, and the speed of casualties was too great, so he decisively chose to abandon the outermost gate, and retreated to the front hall to defend like the rebels who had stayed behind before. The door is smaller, and the space for defense is naturally much smaller, so that the casualties can be greatly reduced, and the injured person can also retreat in time and replace it with someone else.
The offensive and defensive battle around the town compound lasted more than two hours, and the battle would not be fruitful for a while, and the town had already been turned into a pot of porridge by the members of the action team. Although many team members were killed under the encirclement and suppression of the rebels, this all-out encirclement and suppression further caused chaos in the town to some extent. Many people who were already restless, especially the players who were messing around in the town, saw this situation, where could they still hold on, and came to the streets one after another, and started to take advantage of the fire to rob. As a result, the town is even more chaotic......
Although there are many soldiers encircled and suppressed by the rebels, they can't stand the flames everywhere, and when Wang Hao arrives with people, he sees countless wolf smoke rising from Shangzhong Town in the distance. (To be continued......)
