Chapter 869: Defending the city is also training

They knew very well that not far away, the generals of the 1st Division of the People's Army were looking at them with a clairvoyant mirror, and any of their performances would fall into the eyes of others. If you are brave enough, you may be favored by a big man, and then you can soar.

I have to say that this feeling of being noticed is good, and it also prevents the possibility that someone will be lazy. How to kill more enemies and perform better is what they have to do next.

Toot toot...

Suddenly, an urgent whistle sounded, which was the signal of the enemy's siege, which had been said before. At one time, all the 2,000 peasant soldiers stood up and prepared for battle.

At the city wall, the Liao soldiers had already charged to the bottom of the city tower, followed by ladders being erected, and then the Liao soldiers began to climb quickly towards the city tower like little ants.

"Throwing stones, smashing sleepers, pouring gold soup..."

The shouts rang out in an orderly manner, and in the midst of this command, all sorts of things were thrown down the castle tower.

Before the battle, there was an order to come, not to ask them to defend more tightly, but to improve accuracy, it means that if something is thrown down, it must be tried to smash the enemy.

Littering is not ineffective, but it is too wasteful of materials, not to mention, more importantly, it is difficult to improve the personal combat ability of the soldiers.

In this siege battle, the definition given by Division Commander Mu Huan is to train soldiers in battle, and in order to achieve this purpose, such a requirement was put forward.

Keeping this requirement in mind, the Farm Assistants aim as much as possible at the target when smashing various items downward, so that each attack can hurt or kill an enemy.

Shen Yong rode on his horse, looked up at the Liao soldiers besieging the city and climbed up the tower, and then nodded and said, "The counterattack of the dragon soldiers is not very fierce, and it seems that it is nothing more than that."

He would say this, based on the fact that the attack of the dragon army was not violent, but he did not notice that the losses of the Liao soldiers besieging the city were not small.

The city wall of more than two zhang is considered a high city in the Liao Kingdom. This is also because Anju City originally belonged to the rear of the Liao State, and it was relatively close to Goryeo, so it was not threatened at all in normal times. Over the years, there has only been a share of Liao's invasion of other countries, when others have hit their territory.

It was only more than seven meters high, and soon Liao soldiers rushed to the top of the city tower. This is where the hand-to-hand combat begins.

The Liao soldiers will attack so quickly, which is also what Mu Huan intentionally did.

If you want to consume a large number of Liao troops and fight for the opportunity to fight back for Su Shi's arrival, then you can't defend too fiercely, otherwise you will scare the Liao army, and it will not be fun.

Shen Yong was overjoyed to attack the tower so quickly, and in order to expand the results of the battle, he ordered a team of 2,000 people from the second batch of Liao troops to follow and rush to the tower.

Besides, the Liao soldiers who rushed up first, and the 2,000 peasant soldiers who defended the city soon began a short-term handover, and the stab-proof clothing played a role at this time.

The two fight, one can slash and kill the other, but the other's knife and spear can't help the peasants, and the result is very interesting.

At first, the peasant soldiers were still a little afraid, and they were still a little afraid when they fought with the Liao army. After all, many people have never killed a chicken before, and now it is indeed difficult for them to kill.

But when they found that the opponent's blade was slashing at them and they were not injured, they became more and more bold.

In addition to the stab-proof clothing on his body was cut, holding you and slashing me, I want to cut back, I can't suffer a loss, and I came to the other party.

In this way, blood was seen on the blade for the first time.

In this way, many peasant soldiers had the experience of killing people.

After the first time, there will not be so many worries when you start in the future, and you will complete the transformation from a recruit to a veteran.

"Hehe, yes, it works well. But they were still a little too flustered, so they ordered the regular soldiers, auxiliaries, and peasant soldiers who were prepared on the sidelines to be ready to support at any time." Mu Huan said with a smile.

He has the intention of training soldiers, but there is a premise for all this, that is, the Liao soldiers must not be allowed to really seize the city tower, if that is the case

words, it's too much.

The city tower was still fighting, and more and more Liao soldiers rushed to the city tower, and the pressure on the peasant soldiers suddenly increased, and they began to be pressed back step by step. And it was at this time that a large number of dragon soldiers rushed out of the stairs.

The number of these people is not very large, only about 1,000 people, but in terms of strength and combat experience, they are much stronger than these peasant soldiers.

They were all dressed in black stab-proof suits, and as soon as they appeared, they overwhelmingly forced the Liao soldiers who rushed up to retreat in great strides, and retreated straight to the place where they came.

is also holding a knife or spear, but one side has the ability to be invulnerable, and the other side can only be beaten passively.

After a stick of incense, the Liao soldiers were driven down by the thousands of dragon troops who appeared, and even the two thousand Liao soldiers who were climbing up the ladder had to retreat quickly.

This retreated, and Shen Yong's face was a little unpleasant, "Call those defeated soldiers over and ask them what is going on on the castle tower?"

Soon, the general of the defeated army called back and told the story of what happened after entering the tower.

Through retelling, it was learned that the dragon army did not have many troops, and their combat strength was average, and they only relied on better defensive equipment. Shen Yong probably had a number in his heart, and he also had more confidence in capturing Anzhou City.

The Dragon Army did not have many troops, and he was understandable. After all, they came too quickly, so fast that the dragon army had not completely straightened out the relationship in Anzhou City, so a large number of troops needed to be placed in the city to defend and maintain order.

This reduced the number of troops by a lot. In addition, the Dragon Empire has not been established for a long time, the strength is originally limited, and the speed of annexing the territory is very fast for a while, and there will not be too many troops that can be used to attack Anzhou City, all of which will be the disadvantage of the Dragon Army, which is naturally the advantage of their Liao Army.

"There aren't many troops, right, so keep attacking, don't use too many troops at once, but keep attacking. By the way, the other three city gates are the same, send more troops to attack the city, and I want to see how long the dragon army can deal with it." Shin Yong's face continued to smile, and then he laughed.

Above the North Tower, the ground was littered with corpses.

Among them, there are Liao soldiers and Dragon Army soldiers, but more are Liao soldiers.

Of the 2,000 peasant soldiers, 200 were killed in battle, and the more than 1,000 corpses on the rest of the ground were all Liao soldiers.

Of the remaining 1,800 peasant soldiers, more than 700 of them had killed the enemy, and these people were promoted to enviable peasant soldiers on the spot, and the word "help" on their heads was removed.

The remaining 1,000 peasant soldiers will continue to stay on the tower and continue to kill the enemy until they have killed the Liao soldiers, made meritorious contributions, and become peasant soldiers before they will withdraw.

"They have already blocked a wave of Liao army attacks, do you need to let them rest and rest, and change someone else first?" After seeing this decision, Brigadier Wang Cai asked with some dissent.

"No, the Liao soldiers rushed fast and retreated quickly just now, and they didn't have much physical exertion. Besides, they just experienced a battle, and they should adapt to it, and now they retreat, and the next time they raise their fighting spirit, I don't know how long it will take. In this way, another 1,000 peasant soldiers will be sent to the tower, and the number of 2,000 will be maintained, and the training will continue." Mu Huan shook his head.

He knew what Wang Cai meant, and it stands to reason that having a break is the right way. But these peasant assistants were fighting just now, they were just waving their knives indiscriminately, and then they were constantly retreating, all counting on the regular soldiers, auxiliary soldiers, and peasant soldiers to help them.

With such a mentality, they will not go all out, which is not the result Mu Huan wants.

But not every battle, there will be reinforcements watching, waiting to support them at any time.

The so-called elite soldiers are all trained and fought. This is a rare opportunity, of course, to train more elites.

Mu Huan had already promised Hu Yanqing, the deputy division commander, that he would be qualified to become the commander of the Fourth Division of the People's Army. For the establishment of a division, it is necessary to have enough elite soldiers, and this time it is to lay a good foundation for the establishment of the fourth division. ap.

"Understood." Wang Cai point

nodded. Even if the division commander has his considerations, then he doesn't have to think too much.

On the upper floor of the north city, there were 1,000 peasant soldiers who did not succeed in killing the enemy, followed by another 1,000 peasant soldiers, or 2,000, which was ready to meet the second siege charge of the Liao army.

The Liao army did not disappoint, and soon a new batch of Liao soldiers rushed towards the city tower with a cloud ladder. The difference is that this time, the other three towers have also sent additional Liao troops, from the initial containment to the current all-out siege.

"Okay, this is bullying my first division." Mu Huan looked at all this, and said unhurriedly.

He was also worried about such a small-scale training and didn't know how long he would train, let alone achieve the goal of inflicting heavy damage on the other side. But since the Liao army attacked the four cities together, he also sent more troops, and the four cities were defended together.

Next, the Liao soldiers attacked the city tightly, and the Dragon army defended the city tightly.

In order to give hope to the Liao soldiers, Mu Huan deliberately released water from time to time, giving people the feeling that he could capture the city tower at any time, and it was always a little bit closer.

It was this feeling of hope that made Shen Yong fool and constantly sent more soldiers to charge. After a whole day, the city was still in the hands of the dragon army.

"Don't be in a hurry, a day's siege is down. We've almost taken the castle a few times, and tomorrow if we work hard, we'll be able to. The dragon army in the city must have been running out of troops for a long time, hahaha." Ignoring the result of today's battle and the loss of 10,000 Liao soldiers and warriors, Shen Yong laughed.

Hearing this, the head of the Yi Yangxian family was also quite happy on his face. Anzhou City is under the jurisdiction of their Yi clan, and they had to lose it two days ago, if they can recapture it now, of course, it will be a great thing.
