Chapter 31: Black Mountain Bandits Attack
Outside Puyang City.
The Montenegrin Army, which could not see the edge at a glance, was slowly marching from a distance.
It's just that in the black-pressed crowd, most of the soldiers are yellow-faced and thin-skinned, and there are even many old and young women and children caught in it.
Most of them only have a rudimentary weapon.
Only a few people can wear well-dressed armor.
Yu Poison rode on a tall horse, his eyes fixed on Puyang City not far away.
Following him, there were several other generals, namely Bai Huan and Zhenggu.
"Puyang City is so tall and strong, I'm afraid it's difficult to conquer!"
Bai Huan said with a frown.
"General Bai is too worried, according to the report of the spies I planted in the city, then Cao Cao led a large army out of the city, and there were only 3,000 recruits left, how could he stop our 100,000 army?"
Huang Shilang smiled disapprerovingly, looking at Puyang City in the distance, his eyes were mixed with anger and hatred!
Not bad.
Although Cao Cao beheaded all the Huang family, the Huang family has been operating in Puyang City for so many years, and there are still a lot of people.
As early as when Cao Cao set out on the expedition, Huang Shilang got the news and told Yu Poison in advance.
"Your message had better be accurate, or you'll die!"
Su Gu glared at Huang Shilang coldly.
Originally, they planned to return to the lair first, to defeat Cao Cao's main army, and then continue to attack Dongjun.
But under Huang Shilang's strong persuasion, Yu Poison finally chose to attack Puyang County first.
"Leader Yu, how should we attack now?"
As soon as Bai Huan opened his mouth, everyone looked at Yu Poison.
Yu Poison touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
The Montenegrin army claims to have more than 100,000 troops, but there are at least 30,000 or 40,000 of them, all of whom are old, weak, sick and disabled, unable to fight.
The rest of the soldiers were also lacking in armor.
It is really difficult to break through an impregnable county office.
But now that the arrow is on the line, it has to be sent.
Thinking of this, Yu Poison pointed to the county road,
"Let's concentrate our superior forces and attack only one of them."
"First send out men to block the other three city gates with sandbags and dig deep ditches to prevent them from going out of the city to harass."
"Let's start attacking tomorrow!"
The crowd answered in unison,
"Whoa!"
……
on the city walls.
Xun Yu looked at the Black Mountain Army that had taken action, and his brows were twisted into a Sichuan character,
"It seems that the leader of the Black Mountain thieves, Yu Poison, is not a fool!"
"So what, if he dares to come today, I will let them come back!"
Dian Wei, who had a loud voice, laughed out loud.
The panicked recruits around him instantly calmed down a lot.
"But having said that, General Dian, we still can't be careless."
Xun Yu admonished.
"Don't worry, Juncheng, I'm ready!"
Dian Wei waved his hand disappreciatively,
"It looks like the Montenegrin army won't attack today, so you can go down and rest first."
Xun Yu also saw that the Montenegrin Army was just preparing today.
So he nodded, and left the wall with a heavy heart.
Dian Wei looked at the black mountain thieves under the city wall, braving the rain of arrows to transport sandbags and dig deep ditches, and a sneer appeared on his face,
"Sure enough, the eldest brother guessed correctly, these black mountain thieves lack armaments, so they can only concentrate their advantages and storm in one place."
"That way, it saves you trouble!"
……
After completing the preliminary preparations, early the next morning, the Black Mountain Thieves launched an attack on Puyang City!
In order to show his determination to take the city, Yu Poison did not hesitate, and first sent his main force to attack the city.
The soldiers of the Black Mountain thieves, carrying the hastily built ladders, raised the rudimentary shields in their hands, and braved the rain of arrows to approach the city wall!
They leaned the ladder against the wall and tried to climb up.
I saw that the city wall to the west of Puyang City was densely packed with soldiers attached to it!
The 3,000 recruits who stayed in Puyang, although their combat effectiveness was a little weaker, they were condescending and occupied a geographical advantage.
Just raise the bow and arrow in your hand, gravel, numb and keep attacking downward, stopping the enemy's attack!
In this way, although the Black Mountain thieves have a numerical advantage, they cannot easily break through.
For a time, the battle situation was in a stalemate.
Outside the battlefield.
Looking at the soldiers under his command, one by one died tragically under the city wall, Yu Poison's heart seemed to be dripping blood.
He turned his head to look at Bai Huan and the few people, and said viciously,
"If you keep fighting like this, you'll have to fight until the Year of the Monkey! Why don't we all send elite soldiers, or take Puyang in one go, how about it?! ”
Bai Huan and Su Gu glanced at each other, hesitated for a moment, and said,
"It's good!"
The Montenegrin thieves are usually intrigued, and several leaders do not want their interests to be damaged.
But at this time, the war is urgent, and only by taking Puyang quickly is the right thing!
Therefore, they can only agree to Yu Poison's suggestion!
"Good!"
Yu Poison nodded and nodded to the soldiers on the side.
After a while, a heavy horn sounded.
The Black Mountain thieves who are attacking the city are receding like a tide!
……
City.
Yang Ling was leaning there leisurely, basking in the sun.
Zhao Yun stood aside and couldn't help but say,
"Big brother, don't we really have to come forward?"
"Don't worry, Zilong, I must have told your second brother, with his ability, the Black Mountain thief will not be able to take it for a while."
Yang Ling said slowly.
Dian Wei is also a famous general in history, if he can't even win the first wave of attacks of the Black Mountain Thieves, then he can only blame Yang Ling for seeing the wrong person.
At this moment, Zhao Yun listened attentively and exclaimed excitedly,
"Big brother, listen quickly, it seems that the Black Mountain thieves have withdrawn!"
Yang Ling listened carefully, and it really represented the sound of the horn of retreat.
But he was not as excited as Zhao Yun, and shook his head and said,
"That's not good news."
"Doesn't this mean that the second brother repelled the attack of the Black Mountain thieves, why is it not good news?"
Zhao Yun said suspiciously.
"Quite simply, the two armies are at war, and under normal circumstances, the first wave of attacks is tentative. The next attack of the Black Mountain thieves will definitely be more intense! ”
Yang Ling looked at the city wall not far away, and muttered,
"Zilong, go and help your second brother!"
"Yes, big brother!"
Zhao Yun, who couldn't bear it anymore, picked up his spear and took the order.
……
on the city walls.
Dian Wei was also slightly stunned when he saw Zhao Yun coming,
"Zilong, why are you here?"
"Second brother, eldest brother asked me to come over to help you."
Zhao Yundao.
"It's good! With your help, defending the city is definitely not a problem. ”
Dian Wei smiled.
However, at this moment, the soldier on the side suddenly reminded,
"General, look!"
Dian Wei and Zhao Yun were stunned for a moment, and raised their eyes to look at the Black Mountain Bandit Army.
I saw several groups of men and horses rushing out of the enemy army and rushing towards the side of the city wall.
Compared with the previous Black Mountain thieves, these teams of men and horses are obviously much more elite.
Not only are they physically strong, but they can even wear armor for everyone!
