334 The night of fierce battles
According to the news from Deng Qiguang outside the city, Korla led the Lingnan army to prepare for departure.
They never suspected that the news they got was fake, let alone that if they were inserted into the Nanning army, so many years of spies would be discovered by An Chuxia.
Looking at the city gate that slowly opened as agreed, they were even more sure that this was the inner opening to welcome their army into the city.
Korla raised his weapon and made a marching gesture, and the vanguard standing behind him rushed towards the city gate.
There was no movement on the castle tower, and the sentries standing guard and patrolling seemed to be really stunned.
There was also silence in the city of Nanning, as if all the people were really asleep.
Seeing this, Korla was about to fight his horse and enter the city with the army, but was stopped by the extremely cautious military advisor Thoth, "Let the general lead the troops first, and it will not be too late for the general to advance again." ”
"Hahaha, the military advisor doesn't have to be so careful.
The spies who delivered the news were the top meticulous works cultivated by our Lingnan Kingdom, and they had been hidden in the Nanning Army for so many years, and there had never been a problem with the news delivered.
It was the city defense map this time, and he was also revealed to our army under the hint of the Nanning general. ”
Although Korla didn't understand why Zhao Jing'an, the commander of the Nanning Army, did this, it did not prevent him from commanding the army to grab the materials of the Tanglin Kingdom to solve the urgent needs of his country.
Who would have thought that Zhao Jing'an would do this, just because the second princess wanted to take back some of the military power by borrowing reinforcements.
On this side of the city gate, An Chuxia led people to open the city gate.
The Lingnan generals who took the lead in didn't know Deng Qiguang, the spy sent by the country, so An Chuxia welcomed them in, and his heart was not empty at all.
If everyone knows Xizuo, can you still hide your identity as a spy?
An Chuxia looked at the Lingnan generals who rushed in, her memory was good, and her eyesight was not bad, when there were thirty or forty thousand enemy troops in about touch.
The whistle that had been in his mouth was pressed against his lips.
The Lingnan army was scrambling to be the first, for fear that it would be too late to come in, and the beautiful women and treasures hidden in the rich and noble houses would be preempted by the first to come, and the soldiers behind would desperately squeeze into the city gate.
"Beep beep"
A crisp whistle sounded in the night.
Just when the Lingnan Army, which was crowded in the city, heard the voice and looked confused.
From both sides not far from the city gate, a group of Tanglin soldiers with sharp blades in their hands rushed in.
In an instant, screams rang out at the gates of the city.
Ling Feng and Leng Shanshan led more than 1,000 people to cut the enemy army into two sections from the city gate with lightning speed.
Fifty strong soldiers hiding in the shadows on both sides of the city gate ran over when they heard the whistle and began to push the city gate.
The heavy gates of the city, pushed hard by fifty strong soldiers, slowly closed.
At this time, the Lingnan Army also reacted and was ambushed.
How could it be so easy to let the open gates be closed again.
The people also began to try their best to prevent the gates from closing, and the enemy troops pushing the gates outside were far greater than those who were trying to close the gates inside.
The Lingnan army, which was cut off in the city, saw that the city gate was about to be closed, and hurriedly rushed back to kill.
Ling Feng and Leng Shanshan led people at this time and went up to stop them.
Just as the city gate was slowly pushed open again, An Chuxia squeezed in, put his hands on both sides of the city gate, his legs were slightly arched, and the green tendons on his head burst out.
"Off-"
With a shout, the force was exerted.
The gates, which were about to be pushed open again, slammed and closed tightly.
"The city gates... This... That's it! Yan Kuan, who was also pushing the city gate desperately, said in disbelief.
"Quickly put the two horizontal bolt bars on it, and then take the vertical diagonal top bar to resist it." An Chuxia anxiously commanded loudly.
There were too many people pushing the city gate outside, and after a while, she couldn't stand it.
An Chuxia was stabbed in the arm by someone outside, a weapon that came in through the crack in the door, but in such a chaotic scene, no one paid attention.
Ling Feng and Leng Shanshan led people to block the city gate, preventing the Lingnan army from approaching the city gate.
The Lingnan Army, which rushed to the front, would have been hidden in the arrows shot down from a high place, and they were shocked to find a place to hide.
Half of the black guards led by Wang Bao, after disturbing the Lingnan army, quickly evacuated to the city tower and began to assist the soldiers on the city tower to attack the people outside the city.
The archers of the Nanning Army who remained behind fired thousands of arrows, forcing the Lingnan Army on the street to hide on both sides of the street.
At this time, the tens of thousands of soldiers who were well fed and drunk, hidden in the city of Nanning, began to reap the lives of the Lingnan army.
The bright moon is reflected on the iron armor.
The battlefield of a hundred battles was shattered in iron clothes, and wails arose.
The war horses neighed, the iron armor was cold, and the wolf smoke was billowing out.
The earth-shattering sound was mixed with cries and howls, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Outside the city, Korla had scarlet eyes, led the army that was blocked out, and roared desperately, and the soldiers hugged the thick round wood and slammed into the thick iron-clad city gate.
The archers on the castle tower and An Chuxia's crossbowmen, who were more lethal and shot farther, were also shooting the enemy troops outside the city who wanted to climb up the ladder.
The Lingnan army, which was shot and besieged and intercepted in the city, was besieged in sections arranged by An Chuxia, making it more difficult for the Lingnan generals to organize people and carry out an effective counteroffensive.
The Lingnan soldiers were covered in blood one by one, their smudgled faces showed panic that could not be concealed, and their blood-red eyes were full of panic.
There is a trend of decline.
The war lasted from the time of the child until the day turned white, An Chuxia did not have the kindness of the enemy to surrender and not kill, and looked at the corpses of Lingnan soldiers piled up everywhere on the street, and her face did not show a trace of expression.
Only the hands behind her back trembled slightly, revealing her subtle and true mood.
Since ancient times, wars have been so cruel, and An Chuxia slowly closed her tired eyes in the morning sun.
"My lord, there is only some aftermath work left here, you can go back and rest." Yan Kuan, who has been by An Chuxia's side to protect her since last night, said.
Looking at the blood stains oozing from the wound on An Chuxia's arm, his eyes were full of admiration.
Who would have thought that the female monarch in front of him, who was not strong, was able to defect with his hands and the Anping general Zhao Jing'an.
can also use his own strength, cooperate with everyone to merge the heavy city gates, block the entry of the army outside the city, brave, strategic, capable, decisive, how not to make people admire from the heart.
An Chuxia looked out of the city again, and the Lingnan army, which had suffered heavy losses last night, had withdrawn to the camp.
She knew that the calm at this time was temporary, because of the battle last night, both sides were exhausted and needed to rest.
Korla, the Lingnan general who suffered such a big loss, couldn't swallow this breath so easily.
After last night's stop, he now has only about sixty percent of his remaining men.
Attacking the city with the little strength he had now would certainly not be enough.
That was left to continue the siege of Nanning City.
As long as they guard the gates, the people of the city will not be able to get out, and it is only a matter of time before they are trapped inside.
An Chuxia's analysis is not wrong.
After Toth stopped and rested, there was also General Korla, who led the troops to attack the city, and told Black Korla to listen to the current situation that An Chuxia had analyzed just now.
Under the persuasion of the military advisor Thoth, Korla, who had calmed down, adopted the method of continuing to besiege the city of Nanning.
This time, they sent people to patrol the entire outside of the city wall to ensure that not a single fly could fly out, and fortunately, the tunnel exit was in a dry well and was not easy to find.
