Chapter 65: Black Clouds Crush the City (I)

Liangzhou is the land of the dragon of the Great Liang Empire, Taizu Emperor Gu Qiguang erected his first banner from here, after decades of time, led the army to recruit warlords from all walks of life, swept Liuhe, and subdued the enemies of the eight directions, only to lay the foundation of today's Great Liang.

Inside Liangzhou, the mountains are continuous, magnificent, like the back of the dragon crawling on the ground, it is the dragon vein that carries the luck, and the city walls of Liangzhou are mostly built on the basis of heavy mountains, connected to each other as a whole, just like a belt fell on the border of Liangzhou.

However, the Weijin coalition army, which has studied the topography of Liangzhou for a long time, after careful screening, chose the attack point that naturally would not be the kind of very dangerous, relying on the mountainous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, which would just add trouble to their side.

Just on the opposite side, it took an unknown amount of manpower and material resources, after several generations of efforts, to finally be able to rise from the ground, stretching ten miles of defensive line, the terrain is the most gentle, they as an attacker, not to say that they have any advantage, but at least the disadvantage has been much smaller.

In fact, the city wall is not just a single wall, its internal and external structure is very particular, for example, this section of the city wall that was unfortunately selected by the Wei Jin coalition army as the first batch of attack points, a short distance apart, there is a part that is commonly known as "horse face" because of its appearance.

The so-called "horse face" is a rectangular pier that protrudes from the city wall, so that the soldiers defending the city can attack the enemy standing in some blind spots below the city wall, and form a kind of cross fire coverage with their own soldiers on the city wall.

In addition, there are large or small urn cities, arrow towers, etc., all in order to strengthen the city wall against the enemy's defensive ability, after all, no matter how high and thick the city wall is, there will always be the possibility of being breached.

In order to be able to effectively defend against the enemy, you can only put more effort into other aspects, such as the urn city in the capital of Daliang, which has been repaired to a full distance of three layers, and the defense ability can be seen, but because of the limited manpower and material resources, it is impossible to put so much effort in every place.

In the case of extreme understaffing, especially as a defender, having such a long defensive line to be on duty is actually a very disadvantaged thing, because the attacker is free to choose to attack a certain point, but the defender must arrange a certain number of soldiers at each point.

Even if Yan Keni managed to successfully break through to Liangzhou with more than 100,000 Xiong Zhen troops from the Yanzhou battlefield and save a vital force for Da Liang, after so many people were spread out evenly, the manpower on the entire defense line became very sparse.

There is no way, in the famous Daliang Ninth Army outside, although Liangzhou is the same as Youzhou and Yanzhou, they all occupy two places, but whether it is the well-equipped and extremely well-equipped Fierce Guard, or the sparse but extremely terrifying Xiao Cavalry Guard, they are all stationed in the capital all the year round, one inside and one outside, loyally guarding the foundation of Daliang's real national fortunes, completely unable to get rid of themselves, don't look at even the annual routine of the royal autumn hunt, the two armies did not say that all of them were dispatched to protect?

Especially now the situation in Youzhou is unknown, the former generalissimo of Youzhou, Xu Jintang, the Duke of Zhuguo, who had high hopes for the imperial court, led an army of 300,000 troops to be eyeing the border, and it is not sure when they will launch a fatal blow to Liangzhou, in this case, they are even less likely to leave the capital rashly and come to Liangzhou for support.

This is a dilemma that cannot be weighed, once the Liangzhou defense line is completely lost, the robbers outside swagger in, the land of Longxing is lost, and the national fortunes of Daliang will also plummet, on the verge of complete collapse.

But if the defenders of the original capital went to the border to block the Weijin coalition army, it was just to quench their thirst, once the rebellious Youzhou army took advantage of this golden opportunity to launch an offensive against the capital where the defensive force was extremely empty, then the capital would be lost, and even His Majesty the Emperor would flee and even be captured by the traitors directly, so the victory on the Liangzhou side could be

What's the point?

Moreover, the hearts of the people are unpredictable, from His Majesty the Emperor who is full of words, to the ministers with real power who can go to the Jinluan Palace to say a word, and the people who live in fear below, it is impossible for them to be willing to let these two pieces of life talismans that are close in front of them go, so Wanyan Keni never thought of applying to the imperial court to transfer the guards to support him, and when the time comes, he will become the public enemy of all the Beijing officials, so can he still have it?

From a certain point of view, these Liangzhou Army, which has not been baptized by war and is as immature as a half-grown child, can't even rank up to the name of the Ninth Army, so where can this combat effectiveness be, maybe it is not as good as the bandits and horse bandits who have been running around in Youzhou for a while.

To say that it is difficult for a strong man to let such an army take charge alone and go up to withstand the huge pressure brought about by the Weijin coalition army that has just easily taken Yanzhou.

In order to prevent these people from giving up and admitting defeat before the fight starts, in addition to some routine morale-boosting measures, it is also necessary to let every section of the city wall, there are people from the Xiong Zhen army, that is, let these veterans who have experienced the Yanzhou war lead, so that this battle is still fought, if the city wall is full of the original Liangzhou nest waste, then that section of the defense line is estimated to not even hold a stick of incense.

Rao is like this, these soldiers from Liangzhou are still too nervous, many people can't even sleep well during the days of confrontation, and often wake up in the middle of the night because of nightmares, not to mention standing on the city wall during the day and looking at the huge camp on the opposite side without seeing the end.

Fortunately, there are some calm veterans around them who take the lead and cheer them up as an example, even if these tall Yanzhou men will never say anything sour to comfort people, but they just stand there, and they will give the people around them a stable sense of security.

Second, it is because Da Liang has been in the country since the founding of Yin, from top to bottom, the martial wind is extremely strong, these people are nervous and nervous, so terrible that they flee directly, that is absolutely not, not to mention that the military law is very strict on the handling of deserters, just say that after returning to the township, being pointed at the nose and scolded the feeling of being a bad seed, it is really better to die directly.

The third is that it has been so many days, and on the first day, I saw that I had never seen it, and a large army of black pressure was rushing from the north, so I must be very afraid, but the two sides have been facing each other for more than half a month from such a distance, and the fear in my heart has naturally dissipated most of it, after all, I am used to it.

For example, if you are standing in front of you is a thief who kills people without blinking, and the first day you see him holding a knife in his hand, of course you will be afraid that the other party will pull out a knife and cut people if you don't agree with him, but after getting along with him for more than half a month, you find that this kid actually has to eat and drink Lazar, which is no different from the stupid big man of the neighbor next door, so the fear in your heart will naturally be much less.

Having said that, but when I saw the enemies in the distance rushing towards this side like the tide and with an unstoppable feeling like the tide on the first day, their legs and feet could not help but tremble.

Even the dark clouds that had been hanging over their heads for more than half a month seemed to be moving rapidly with the enemy's advance, and the heavy rain was pouring down like a heavenly river, and today was really not a good weather for both the offensive and defensive sides.

When the rain falls, the land becomes wet and muddy, and it is not easy to transport powerful siege equipment such as cloud towers, trebuchets, crashes, and ladders that have been built with great difficulty these days.

And the wind is howling non-stop, even if the ladder is successfully set up, it will shake non-stop without the people above to push it, which is a great test of the soldier's balance ability, and if he accidentally falls, he will break his leg in the best case.

As for the defenders, the best things to use when defending the city, such as hot oil, rockets, etc., will be greatly reduced in power, and it will be difficult to play an effect.

On the Wei Guo side, he was entrusted with the important task by Duanmu Shuofeng, as the commander-in-chief of this battle, and Xie Hou, who needed to manipulate and arrange 600,000 soldiers and horses to attack

Yin, standing firmly on a huge three-story platform in the center of the team, is very conspicuous, but after standing on it, the field of vision has become wide enough, commanding the whole army, scolding Fang Xuan, and has a kind of chic and heroic that belongs to the men on the battlefield.

In order to ensure safety, not only was he wearing the best black heavy armor on his body, but there were also four guards with huge shields on his side, carefully defending against cold arrows that might come from the opposite side, and if necessary, they were even willing to use their own bodies to block, although in fact, at such a distance, even an ordinary archer could hardly say that he could successfully shoot at the target.

When standing on the city wall on the border of Liangzhou and looking at the opposite side, you will really understand what it means to "come like a tide", because after the enemy in front of you is lined up, it is really like a line of waves on the sea, very orderly, and the people behind follow closely, endlessly, and what is even more terrifying is that the 150,000 people who are attacking here, stepping on their feet, are actually of the same frequency, neat to the terrible pace.

The sword mountain dares to move forward, the sea of fire does not retreat; every battle must be the first, and death will not spin!

Where righteousness goes, life and death go hand in hand, the sky can be learned, and the white horse is the proof!

It is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as swift as a forest, as swift as a fire, and as immobile as a mountain!

The momentum of the charge is to advance but not retreat, and the will to fall into battle is to die but not to live!

Every attack, no one can be broken!

Invincible, can solve the crisis!

As it should be, it is called the army!

This is a real soldier, this is a real fighter, this is a real war!

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

150,000 people, step by step, not slowly, like a tide rushing and lapping on the shore.

With every step under their feet, this piece of earth is shaking and trembling because of this, not to mention the stones that bounce on the ground, even the soldiers of Liangguo standing on the city wall can clearly feel that their feet are trembling gently, and there is a very depressed and low, looming voice in their ears that keeps echoing, and the whole person has an extreme sense of discomfort.

They looked at the scene in front of them, and couldn't help but wonder if the city wall under their feet would collapse directly because of this, and many people couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and the hands holding the hilt of the knives were constantly trembling, and the fear in their hearts continued to increase with time and the approach of the enemy.

There was still a long distance away, and Xie Houyin, who was standing on the high platform, suddenly drew his sword and pointed at it, opened his mouth and roared angrily: "Gale! Gale!"

At this moment, it was as if a stone had suddenly fallen into the originally calm pond, rippling in circles and spreading rapidly at an unimaginable speed, and in the blink of an eye, the entire army under his feet began to roar with it.

"Gale! Gale!"

Between heaven and earth, the wind howled, they used the weapons in their hands, slapping the shield heavily, the sound rushed up to the sky with the surrounding wind, echoing endlessly, a sense of oppression that could not be seen or touched, but was real, unceremoniously pressed from the opposite side.

"Ahh

On the city tower, a local soldier in Liangzhou widened his eyes, couldn't help but exclaim, and couldn't help but take half a step back, with a very obvious look of fear on his face.

The fear before the war is indeed an unimaginable pressure, and it is actually completely understandable that this childish child has such a reaction, the heavy sense of depression brought about by the resonance of heaven and earth is that the veterans of Xiong Zhenjun subconsciously feel that they are not breathing, let alone them.

The breath of death, at this moment, seems to be within reach, it comes slowly but unstoppably from your eyes, and gradually, the world in front of you is filled with only enemies, all enemies, that terrible feeling, really enough to make people crazy.
