The attack and defense battle of the fortress of the Wind Army and the Besa Army lasted until noon of the next day, and the Wind Army in the fortress had almost reached the point of running out of ammunition and food, and the remaining more than 1,000 people, all of them were wounded, and the people had fought to exhaustion, and they were no longer able to fight.

At the critical moment when the wind army was about to be unable to hold on, the main wind army in the rear finally caught up. The Wind Army's brigade repelled the Besa army outside the fortress and took over the defense of the fortress.
When the people walked into the fortress, they were all stunned. Inside the fortress, corpses were piled up, and rivers of blood flowed.
The big pile was full of the corpses of the Bessa, and the small one was full of the corpses of the Wind Army. Looking at the surviving Feng soldiers, almost all of them became bloody, the blood stains were dry and red, the people's bodies were dark, their faces were dark red, and even their eyes were red because they were full of bloodshots.
Seeing that their own brigade had finally arrived, more than a thousand wind troops, as if they had been drained of their strength all at once, collapsed on the ground one after another.
Lao He also slowly fell down beside Shangguan Xiu, and it was only then that Shangguan Xiu suddenly discovered that on the armor on Lao He's chest, there were three more blood holes that had been shot out by projectiles at some point.
"Lord Battalion Lieutenant!" Shangguan Xiu hurriedly squatted down and held the fallen Lao He in his arms, he quickly took off the armor on Lao He's body, looked down again, the clothes in the armor had already been soaked in blood, he turned his head and shouted: "Medical officer!

Lao He's face was pale, his lips were blue, he held Shangguan Xiu's hand tightly, shook his head slowly, and said in a weak voice: "Don't ...... Stop shouting, it's useless, I'...... This time, I'm afraid, really...... No more. ”
Shangguan Xiu's heart sank, his nose was sour, he looked down at the injury on Lao He's chest, and his fists clenched unconsciously.
Of the three injuries on his chest, two did not hurt the vital point, but one injured his lungs, and he didn't know how Lao He had persevered until now. "With such a serious injury, why don't you retreat?"
"I ...... As a battalion lieutenant, how can you lead by example...... Retreating from the battle, draining the fighting spirit of the brothers...... "When Lao He spoke, blood with bubbles flowed from the corners of his mouth, which was the reaction of the injury to the lungs and the blood surging up the respiratory tract.
He coughed violently twice, then the corners of his mouth raised, showing a smile, holding Shangguan Xiu's hand tighter, and asked intermittently, "I...... I didn't give the wind man...... Disgrace to our Zhenjun army, yes...... ......."
"Well, no!" Shangguan Xiu couldn't hold back the sadness in his heart anymore, his eyes were scarlet, and tears were rolling in his eyes. He grabbed Lao He's hand and said, "You are a good soldier!"
The corners of Lao He's mouth raised even more, but the look in his eyes was gradually dissipating, and his gaze was becoming more and more dissipated, and he muttered, "I...... Finally able to go and ...... My brothers are reunited......"
As he spoke, his eyes slowly turned to look at Shangguan Xiu, but his eyes were completely out of focus, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Before leaving, I just want to know...... You...... Who is the brother who fought side by side with me......"
Shangguan Xiu bowed down and said word by word in Lao He's ear: "Shang, Guan, Xiu." ”
Tears dripped down the corners of Lao He's eyes. Seeing so many brothers die on the battlefield, he didn't cry, knowing that he was going to die, he didn't cry either, but when he heard Shangguan Xiu's name, he cried. His eyes were in tears, but his face was smiling, he bowed up excitedly, trembling involuntarily, and said in a trembling voice: "In my lifetime, I can fight side by side with adults, I ...... Die without regrets, and when you go underground, you can show off to your brothers and tell them that they sacrificed their lives when they fought side by side with adults......"
After saying this, the charm in Lao He's eyes disappeared, replaced by a layer of dead ashes, and until he died, he was holding Shangguan Xiu's hand tightly.
Like Lao He, who is obscure, but insists on fighting until the last moment, I don't know how many, the glory of the Wind Country is also made of the flesh and blood of these unknown soldiers, but their names will not appear in any literature and history, so, who else can remember them?
Even in the poorest and most difficult time in Zhenjun, Shangguan Xiu would still insist on building the Martyrs' Shrine and engrave the name of every fallen soldier in the Martyrs' Shrine.
In the first battle of the fortress near the city, more than 5,200 wind troops, in the end, only about 1,300 people survived, six battalion captains, and four people were killed.
However, the price paid by the wind army was worth it, and the fortress near the city, like a nail, was deeply embedded in the interior of Vaasa's city defense, which directly caused the west and south lines of Vaasa's city defense to be cut off.
When the western defense line of the city was attacked by the main force of the wind army, the reinforcements of the southern defense line of the city were unable to reinforce for a long time.
The reason why the Wind Army was able to quickly tear apart the defense line in the west of the city with lightning speed, and the southwest near-city fortress and the northwest near-city fortress were both seized by the wind army, played a vital role.
By the time the battle reached nightfall, the western defense line of Vasa City had been completely lost, and the main force of the Wind Army directly launched a fierce attack on the western city of Vasa City.
The roar of the cannons rang out all night, and by the next day, when we looked at the western walls of Vaasa, they were blown to pieces, and in many places the walls had been blown down.
In the morning, at midnight, the Wind Army launched a general attack on the western city of Vasa.
Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Wind Army, lined up in a neat phalanx, advanced into the city, and at the same time, the defenders of the city came out with an attack and fought a battle of the legion army across a wall full of holes from the Wind Army.
For the command of the commander-in-chief of the Besa army, it can only be said that their courage is commendable, but they really do not have the capital to fight with the wind army.
Now it would be good to have two or three of the ten Besa soldiers armed with firearms, and the others armed with bows, crossbows, spears, axes, and hammers.
In such a legion battle, the weapons and equipment of both sides are not at the same level at all, how can the Besa army win?
During the battle, on the side of the Besa army's array, after a salvo, they collectively went silent, and the few musketeers had to reload and add gunpowder.
On the other hand, on the side of the Wind Army, the salvo is continuous, and after one round, it is followed by the second round of salvos and the third round of salvos in the back row...... Continuous. The Bessa army on the opposite side was knocked down row after row.
The wind army is advancing, the Besa army is also advancing, the two sides are inside and outside the city wall, fighting to the death, the collapsed city wall is not blocked by earth and stones, but by the corpses of soldiers on both sides, the corpses are stacked on top of each other, piled up several meters high.
In this battle, the two sides fought for more than two hours, and in the end, it ended with the active retreat of the wind army. Although the Wind Army retreated, in terms of battle damage, the Besa Army was far more than the Wind Army, and most of the corpses on the battlefield were from the Besa Army.
At this point in the battle, the defenders of Vasa could no longer hold out, and the army of 250,000 people, excluding casualties and deserters, was now less than 50,000 men, and 200,000 were wiped out. The consul, Count Lamberg, was disillusioned, and at this time he issued an unbelievable order, causing his soldiers to fall into the city and spread rumors, falsely claiming that the wind army had already broken through the northern, eastern, and southern cities of Vasa, and was preparing to massacre the city, causing the people to flee from the western city.
The people of Besa have long heard of the ferocity of the Wind Army, and the people of Besa have no doubt that the Wind Army will slaughter the city.
Hearing that the Wind Army had broken the city, the people fled to the West City one after another according to the guidance of Lamberg, and poured out along the gates and broken walls of the West City.
You must know that there are as many as a million people in Vasa City, more than 10,000 people, boundless, more than 100,000 people, more than 100,000 people, more than 100,000 people, more than 100,000 people, more than 100,000 people, more than 100,000 people, more than 10,000 people, more than 10,000 people, more than 100,000 people, more than 100,000 people, more than
The reason why the wind army took the initiative to retreat was because they saw that the Besa army in the city had become the end of a strong crossbow, and the temporary retreat was to accumulate strength and give the defenders in the city the final blow. The Wind Army was preparing for the final battle outside the West City, and suddenly saw the crowds of Besa people running out of the city in a steady stream, and people were dumbfounded, not understanding what kind of madness the Besa people were collectively pumping.
What the wind army didn't know was that the defenders of Vasa City were also mixed with the people, and they rushed out of the city with the fleeing people of Besa, using the people as a cover, and kept firing cold guns and arrows on the surrounding wind army.
All of a sudden, there were countless Feng soldiers who were killed and injured by cold guns and arrows.
The news quickly reached the rear. When Luo Ren heard this, he was furious.
Meng Qiuchen smiled slightly and said slowly: "In the previous war history, there was a tactic called the bison formation, where people ignited the tail of the bison and guided thousands of bison to rush towards the enemy, thus disrupting the enemy formation. ”
Luo Ren blinked his eyes and asked, "What does the military advisor mean is that the Besa army is using the bison formation now?"
"It's pretty much the same, except that the bison are replaced by the people. When Meng Qiuchen said this, he didn't say anything more, and turned his eyes to look at Shangguan Xiu who was sitting on the side.
Shangguan Xiu looked down at his palm, in the battle of the fortress near the city, his palm was pierced by a musket, but it was unbelievable that the flesh that had been penetrated had regrown, and only the epidermis was still somewhat damaged.
Eating Tianxiang cardamom can be said to make his body completely reborn, and his recovery is amazingly strong, even if he is in a powerful drug, he only feels weak and drowsy, and will not be completely comatose and unconscious.
His gaze still fell on his palm, and he said slowly, "Kill all the people of Besa who have left the city." One life of our brothers is better than thousands of Bessa, and the current soft-heartedness is tantamount to cruelty to our own brothers. ”
Regardless of the military and civilians, they are all regarded as enemies, this is the best plan to crack the tactics of the Besa Army, but Meng Qiuchen did not dare to say this. Hearing Shangguan Xiu's order, Meng Qiuchen immediately bowed down and saluted, and said, "Your Excellency is wise!"
