Chapter 170: Storming the Siege
Sun Cheng and Shen Fang commanded the main force of the Mu army, and went to chase and kill the retreating Jin army, and at a distance of twenty miles from Yucheng, the two finally caught up with the Jin army.
At this time, Bi Wu didn't run away, he gave an order, and the rear team of the whole army changed to the front team, turned around, and faced the wooden army.
Sun and Shen thought that Zhang Bufan was hit by an arrow, and the Jin army was in defeat and retreat, and their morale must be low, so they didn't think much about it and ordered the whole army to attack in formation.
When the wooden army launched the arrow shooting, the Jin army immediately began to shoot back, in the archery array, the two sides almost fought equally, and in the next melee battle, the disadvantages of the wooden army's close combat were immediately revealed, the two sides fought for a short time, the two sides did not fight for long, the two corps in front of the wooden army insisted insufficiently, and a large number of soldiers retreated.
Seeing this, Shen Anxin secretly screamed that it was not good, even if Zhang Bufan was not in the camp of the Jin army, but the combat effectiveness of the Jin army was still strong and terrifying, and his current number did not have the upper hand, and it was obviously unwise to match him.
Shen Fang did not dare to delay, and immediately proposed to Sun Cheng that the whole army retreat and not engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Jin army.
At this time, Sun Cheng also saw that his own side did not have an advantage, so he immediately adopted Shen Fang's opinion and ordered the whole army to retreat while fighting, and the rear army suppressed the other party with an arrow array to prevent the Jin army from taking advantage of the victory to pursue and kill his side.
It can be said that as soon as the two sides fought, the wooden army took the initiative to retreat, but the retreat of the wooden army was not a defeated retreat, so the retreat was also very orderly, the whole camp was not chaotic at all, when the front army retreated, the rear army stood still, and suppressed the Jin army with an arrow array, and when the front army retreated to the back of the rear army, the front army became the rear army, and continued to suppress the enemy with an arrow array. The original rear army put away their bows and arrows one after another and quickly retreated, which was a retreat similar to a wheel, so that the pursuers could not find an opportunity to take advantage of, and they could not take much advantage.
Bi Wu, who was in the Jin Zhongjun commanding the battle, nodded secretly, although the Mu Army was weak in close combat. But the overall strength should not be underestimated, especially the opponent's coach, who must be a battle-hardened general.
Since the retreat of the Mu army was not chaotic, he was not in a hurry to chase the enemy, and ordered the whole army to follow the Mu army not far and not close, and kill in the direction of Yucheng.
According to Huangfude's jihua, as long as Zhang Bufan's side can drag the defenders in Yucheng City, the time comes. If your own army comes to attack it inside and outside, you can completely annihilate the wooden army in one fell swoop.
On the other side, Sun Cheng and Shen Fang led the wooden army to retreat to Yucheng halfway through, when they suddenly heard that the spies came to report that Yucheng had been attacked by the Jin army, and now the Jin army had entered the city of Yucheng.
Hearing the news, Sun Cheng and Shen Fang were frightened and changed color on the spot, if Yucheng was lost. Even if you have ten heads, you can't save them.
At this time, Shen Fang finally realized that he had been deceived. Falling for Bi Wu's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, he hurriedly said to Sun Cheng: "General, Bi Wu deliberately led our army out of the city, secretly ambushed the Jin army to attack Yucheng, and the general quickly ordered to return to the city at full speed!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Return to the city at full speed! The whole army will return to the city at full speed!" Sun Cheng was already the master of the six gods at this time, and Yucheng really had a mistake. Then you're really finished.
When Sun Cheng and Shen Fang rushed back to Fengcheng with the main force of the wooden army, it was already dark, and now there was still a battle in the city, and the fire flashing in the city could be seen from afar.
Shen was so anxious that he didn't even think about it. Immediately give an order, the whole army entered the city, and exterminated the Jin army in the city.
With a large number of wooden troops pouring into the city, the two thousand Jin cavalry immediately fell into a desperate situation, no matter where they were, everywhere they looked, they were all black and oppressive wooden soldiers, no matter how brave the Jin army was, it could not stand ten times or even dozens of times the enemy.
I saw the Jin army on the street, some people were put down by the stumbling horse lock, after rolling off the horse, the surrounding wooden soldiers swarmed up, stabbing with spears, only blink of an eye, the Jin soldiers were stabbed by the flesh and blood of the thorns, not human shape; some Jin soldiers were surrounded by people, trying to urge the horse to charge can not rush up, as the encirclement is getting smaller and smaller, the Jin army on the horse is also torn down, but the Jin soldiers are indeed brave, away from the war horse, and in the face of so many enemies, still have no fear, throw away the spear in their hands, pull out their saber and slash, but they can cut one, Two, but they couldn't cut them all, and soon, they were drowned in the sea of people of the wooden army.
At this time, Zhang Bufan didn't understand the situation, he had already killed from the alley to the general's mansion in Yucheng, but the wooden soldiers and wooden generals here were crowded, killing one row and rushing up two rows, as if they were inexhaustible and cut endlessly.
Zhang Bufan felt strange while fighting, according to intelligence, there were only 10,000 wooden soldiers in the city, and he didn't know how many people he had killed, why were there so many?
When he was frantically slashing and killing the wooden army, he rushed behind him to kill more than 100 Jin soldiers, and shouted from a distance: "General! General—"
Zhang Bufan glanced back, then took a deep breath, brandished the silver spear, and killed the enemy troops in front of him, and then, he took a few steps back, met the Jin army running over, and shouted: "There are many enemy soldiers here, the enemy will definitely be here, you will rush and kill with me!"
As he spoke, he rushed forward again, and at this time, a big man covered in blood came to Zhang Bufan's approach, stretched out his hand and grabbed his arm tightly, gasped twice, and said: "General, don't kill again, the main force of the wooden army has retreated into the city, let's retreat quickly!"
"What?" Zhang Bufan heard this, his body was shocked, but he quickly thought about it, since this is the case, then his own people should also be coming soon, he clenched his fists, raised his eyes to look at the more than 100 Jin Jun brothers, and asked, "What about the other brothers?"
Speaking of this, the big man almost cried out with his mouth open, and he said in a trembling voice: "General, the enemy is outnumbered, my brothers have all died in battle, and only us are left!"
"Ahh
"General, retreat quickly, it's too late to delay any longer!" Seeing that there were more and more wooden soldiers gathered around, lamp balls and torches, and bright pine trees, illuminating the night as bright as day, the big man hurriedly said to the Jin soldiers on the left and right: "You cover the general's retreat, and we will wait for the general to break off!"
After speaking, he raised his sword and led more than 20 Jin troops to meet the Mu army that rushed over.
This big man is one of the two thousand commanders who came with Zhang Bufan, and his skills are also extremely brave, fighting with the wooden army, the war knife is opened, and several wooden soldiers are slashed down in a row.
It's just that there are many more wooden soldiers who have filled the battle than he has cut down, and in the blink of an eye, there are no more than 20 commanders and more than 20 Jin soldiers on the field, and when he looks up, his eyes are full of wooden soldiers, and occasionally he can hear screams and screams from the crowd.
Seeing his brothers under his command fall into a heavy siege in order to cover his retreat, how could Zhang Bufan stand it? He roared angrily, picked up his gun and prepared to go up to respond, at this time, the surrounding golden soldiers all pulled him back, and the people shouted with a crying voice: "General, withdraw quickly, don't let the commander sacrifice in vain, general!"
"Alas!" Zhang Bufan looked at the dozens of Jin soldiers around him, and people were also looking at him, and now he was the only hope for the survival of these dozens of Jin soldiers.
Zhang Bufan looked up to the sky and sighed, stomped his feet fiercely, and shouted: "Withdraw!"
Finally heard Zhang Bufan say the word retreat, people were relieved, followed Zhang Bufan, and broke through to the back.
But if they want to break out again, how easy is it?
Along the way, the wooden soldiers continued to meet them, and even more fatally, there were countless wooden archers in ambush on the roofs on both sides of the street, shooting cold arrows from time to time, and there were screams from Zhang Bufan's side from time to time.
They just raided one street, and dozens of people became more than thirty people, except for Zhang Bufan, almost all of them were injured, and all of them looked like bloody people.
Such a blind breakthrough, not only can not rush out, but their brothers will be killed by the other party one by one, Zhang Bufan turned his mind around, and shouted to the surrounding wind army: "Take the alleys, alleys!"
There are too many wooden troops on the street, and the space is spacious, suitable for the enemy to surround them, and more importantly, the threat of the archers in the dark is too great, it is better to hide in the alleys and alleys, so that at most they will be attacked on both sides, and they no longer have to worry about the enemy's cold arrows.
Zhang Bufan was the first to run into an alley next to the street, and only more than 30 Jin soldiers followed closely behind.
Now, Zhang Bufan has never taken the big road, specifically picking a small alley to drill, he twisted around, zuihou even ran himself dizzy, unable to distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, fortunately, his method is really effective, and he really didn't encounter the wooden soldiers in the small alley.
Walking to a relatively secluded place, listening to the shouts and killings relatively far away, Zhang Bufan slowly stopped, leaning against the wall of the alley and gasping for breath. He has been fighting for four hours, if he is replaced by someone else, let alone fighting, even if he sits still and continuously releases the dark martial arts, it may not last so long, at this point, people have to admire the depth of Zhang Bufan's dark qi, and he can still hold on until now.
Zhang Bufan's tired wheezing continued, and the more than 30 Jin soldiers below could be imagined, people could no longer stand, and their seriously overdrawn bodies collapsed to the ground one after another, it seemed that they didn't even have the strength to breathe, and their breath was as weak as silk.
Just as they stopped to breathe a little, suddenly, a small wooden door not far in front of everyone was suddenly opened, and an old man in a ragged basket came out of it, and just took a look at everyone.
Seeing an old man come out, Zhang Bufan, who was standing against the wall, immediately straightened up with full vigilance, and the silver spear in his hand was also raised.
He had already silently calculated in his heart that if the old man wanted to shout, he would stab him to death at the first opportunity.
But before Zhang Bufan could speak to the soldiers under his command, the old man recovered from his shock and asked tentatively, "Yes...... Is it Brother Jin Jun?" (To be continued......)
