Chapter 114: Interception

I quickly knelt down and thanked him, and Master Wen asked me to step back and discuss the army's plans with the general.

It seems that I am still a minor general and have not entered the inner circle.

I was assigned a military tent, and the centurion Chongming was under his command, and he had a bold and loyal personality, which I liked, and often drank together.

Chongming's sister works in the harem and is more familiar with the situation in the harem, and when I mention Su Daji, he doesn't know who it is.

This makes me wonder, according to "The Romance of the Gods", King Su and Su Daji are like paint and glue at this time, and it is difficult to separate for a moment.

Thinking of "Romance of the Gods", it is not a real historical situation, Su Daji may not have taken the throne yet, after all, the harems of all dynasties have fought fiercely.

Chongming promised to help inquire and find out the situation in the harem.

Wen Taishi ordered to be pulled, and I received the task of escorting and replenishing grain and grass, which was in Jiaocheng, fifty miles away, and I led 5,000 elite soldiers to escort it.

When I came to Jiaocheng, loaded with supplies of grain and grass, I led the troops to set off for escort, leaving Jiaocheng, passing by a mountain, when suddenly the horn sounded, and a team of men and horses turned out at the bend of the mountain.

There are as many as 50,000 people in order, and the hunting banner has the big character 'Di' written on it.

Chongming was shocked and told me that Di was the marriage of the rebel Rong, and it was estimated that he had come to reinforce him.

Sure enough, the horn of the Di army sounded suddenly, and the spear of the leader of the army waved forward, and the Di army rushed towards us like a tide.

I quickly made a deployment, let five commanders lead 4,000 soldiers, escort the grain and grass back to Jiaocheng, and ordered Chongming to make a detour to move reinforcements, and lead 1,000 soldiers to meet the enemy.

After the deployment, I drove my horse with a spear and rushed over, aiming directly at Di Jun as the leader.

Thousands of soldiers have seen my bravery, and they are not afraid to face an enemy fifty times greater, and they shout loudly and follow the charge.

Rushing to the head of the Di army, I rose up from my horse, and stabbed my spear at him, and as soon as his spear swung away, I spun in mid-air and swung my spear on his cheek, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, but stood on the horse's back.

What a formidable general.

When my figure fell, I slashed the spear on the ground, and the recoil force made the figure continue to speed forward, and with a flip of my wrist, the spear arced from the bottom to the top, and the head of the spear smashed on the top of the leader's head, blood flowed from the helmet, and his body swayed.

I couldn't give the other party a chance to kick, so I stabbed my spear into the chest of the leader of the general, who was still sane and used his elbow to block it.

When the two met, my mouth was numb, and it was obvious how great the strength was.

Unfortunately, when I met me, a specially trained traverser, I landed a swing gun, stabbed into the belly of the general's horse, and pulled hard, cutting open the horse's abdomen, and the intestines flowed out.

The horse fell to the ground with a scream, and the leader rolled down, and I rushed up and stabbed him with a gun in my right hand, but he rolled and avoided it, and I expected him to be extraordinary, and I took out a bow and crossbow in my left hand and shot an arrow, which was quickly caught by him.

But he didn't catch the flying bamboo dagger and stabbed him in the right eye.

I was about to take my spear and become the leader of the general, when several spears came at me, forcing me to return to protect myself and save his life.

The seven-member generals surrounded me, they cooperated tacitly, there was no flaw in the guns, I couldn't find a cheap one for a while, and I spent it with them.

This situation made me anxious, and a thousand of my men kept falling, and in desperation, I took a dangerous move, threw away the spear in my hand, looked at the two spears that pierced the spear, reached out and grabbed it, and kicked it into the air with a hard kick, and the other spear passed by my back.

I slid down with two spears in my hand, kicked my master in the chest, rolled over and fell off the horse.

Breaking out of the encirclement, I shouted orders to the only remaining centurion to lead the troops to retreat, while I repeatedly charged and killed in the Di army to cover their retreat.

It is estimated that his subordinates retreated to a safe place, and then they used to step on the clouds and rush towards the corner city.

We withdrew to Jiaocheng, the five commanders were preparing to defend the city, I took stock of the men and horses, and only about 200 of the 1,000 soldiers remained.

There were originally 2,000 defenders in the city, plus 4,000 soldiers who returned to escort grain and grass, and there were more than 6,000 men and horses defending the city.

If the Di army comes to attack the city, the balance of forces is ten to one, and I hope that the Di army will not come to attack the city and go to reinforce the Rong country according to the original plan.

Contrary to his wishes, Di's army came in a mighty manner, bandaged the right eye of the leading general, looked furious, and ordered Di's army to attack the city before arriving at the city.

Identified from the banner, Di Jun is the leader of the general's surname Zi.

Our archers withstood the first wave of fierce attacks, and as night fell, the Di army retreated with hundreds of corpses.

I found a temporary peace, but I could not be idle, and I inspected the city, and found a wine cellar in a courtyard, in which thousands of catties of liquor were placed, and I was recruited to defend the city.

In addition, I collected all the cooking oil in the city, put it in clay pots, and sealed it with mud. and the demolition of houses that have been vacated by people living in large concentrations.

Bricks and beams were both weapons for defending the city.

The next day, the Di army attacked the city, first came a few waves of arrows, densely flying towards the city wall, this indiscriminate attack, immediately made me lose hundreds of soldiers.

Di Jun then carried a ladder to attack the city, the ladder was more than ten times that of yesterday, and he must have not been idle last night.

When the first batch of Di troops climbed halfway, I ordered the soldiers to pour thousands of catties of liquor, throw down torches and light them, and the raging fire blocked the Di army behind.

Concentrate on dealing with the Di army that climbed up, and there were thousands of Di troops who climbed up, and they were wiped out by our army one by one.

The fire was extinguished, and the Di army launched an even more ferocious attack, and our army poured cooking oil under the city, and destroyed the enemy troops who attacked the city wall.

After two battles, our side lost thousands of soldiers and no incendiary materials, and the next battle to defend the city was even more difficult.

The Di army rested for a while and launched a frantic attack, but the Di army rushed to the top, the stones and wood were exhausted, and there was not a single arrow left, and the two sides began to fight hand-to-hand.

At this stage of the battle, our army was at a complete disadvantage, and in a hurry, I jumped off the city wall, landed on a ladder, and shot down all the Di troops above.

I slid to the ground, grabbed the ladder and swung it, swept it across the others, swept it down, and when one ladder broke, I replaced it with another.

Most of the ladders on the walls were destroyed by me.

A team of archers came and aimed at me, I grabbed the gap in the wall and climbed up, the arrow ran after my ass, and when I climbed over the wall, I was shot in the thigh by an arrow.

Di Jun should not have enough ladders, and the battle is over.

I bandaged the wounds, counted the troops, there were more than a thousand soldiers left, and if the reinforcements did not come, the next wave of attacks by the Di army would break the city.

There was only one commander left, named Yue Jie, who gathered the young and strong people of the city and gave a brief and impassioned speech.

"The Di people are the most brutal, everyone should have heard of it, the Di people will slaughter the city when they attack it, everyone is going to die, why not take up arms to defend the city, delay time and wait for reinforcements. Even if everyone died in battle, they also protected their parents, wives and children, and at the same time established meritorious deeds and added glory to our generation! ”

These words worked, and the young and strong people joined the battle excitedly, and together with the middle-aged people in their fifties, there were thousands of people in total.

There is a wide variety of combat weapons.
