Chapter 677: The Danger of the Nine Plains
The deputy general who was left by Pan Feng to garrison in Jiuyuan was called Zhu Wei.
This person's ability is average, he is not a celebrity, that is, he is relatively lucky, he has obtained some military merits in the army, so he can have today's position, and he was originally not qualified to guard a county, but Yang Zhao did not have many generals in Hetao, only Pan Feng and Li Tong.
Li Tong was transferred, Pan Feng was in the clouds, he could only drive the ducks to the shelves and guard Jiuyuan County.
Not long ago, when Li Tong left, all of them, even Yang Zhao, could not have imagined that the Xianbei people, who had been doing business in peace, would suddenly raise troops and go south.
The recent change in the situation has taken everyone by surprise.
Even if they were prepared, there were not many, not even many generals who were capable of leading the troops.
Zhu Wei was in Jiuyuan County, walking around anxiously, praying in his heart that the Xianbei people had better not fight the idea of the Hetao.
Sometimes, the more you worry about something, the more likely it is to happen.
"Will ...... Checkmate! ”
A cronie soldier ran in eagerly and said, "Beacon fire...... The beacon was lit. ”
"What?"
Zhu Wei was shocked and quickly ran out.
As soon as I got outside, I saw a column of black smoke rushing into the sky.
There is more than one pillar of smoke, there are others, extending all the way down from the north, and the Xianbei people are really going south.
"Hurry up and prepare for defense!"
Zhu Wei shouted and walked directly to the Great Wall.
Tuoba Liwei's marching speed was super fast, and when Zhu Wei came to the Great Wall, the Xianbei people had already killed outside the surrendered city, and the soldiers on the beacon tower hurriedly ran back and entered the Great Wall.
"Siege!"
Tuobali shouted slightly.
Rumble!
The artillery bombarded out, and there was no artillery in the surrendered city, and the role of this city was to post a sentry, and the city gate was quickly penetrated, and the soldiers in the city hurriedly fled back in the direction of the Great Wall.
In the section of the Great Wall from Jiuyuan to the surrendered city, there is a doorway that can enter and exit the inside and outside of the Great Wall.
They all went back through the doorway.
After Tuoba Liwei took the surrendered city, he continued to kill on the Great Wall, and entered it to Jiuyuan County.
"Artillery, hit!"
Zhu Wei took the lead and commanded.
The two cannons were pushed into the door opening, stuffed into the shells, and then bombarded out, firing at the Xianbei army with a weak Tuoba force.
Rumble!
The shell exploded, making a loud noise.
The Xianbei army led by Tuoba Liwei was hit by artillery fire, and there were many casualties, but they didn't care at all, and continued to advance and kill, getting closer and closer to the doorway.
Zhu Wei said again: "Keep firing, machine gunners prepare, strafe!" ”
Shells and bullets, punch out.
There are also five machine guns here, which are enough to fight the Xianbei people outside, but if it is a leader of the Zhao, or even the defensive soldiers led by Pan Feng, with these equipment, it is enough to resist the attack of the Xianbei people.
Zhu Wei's ability is still a little worse.
Before the enemy could get into the firing range, he ordered the machine gunner to open fire.
Tuoba Li saw it slightly, and shouted: "The cavalry is out to fight!" ”
In their army, there were more than 3,000 cavalry.
The three thousand cavalry stepped back, dodging the bullets and rushed in the direction of the doorway.
The other infantrymen, taking out the iron shields that Sima Yi had prepared for them, faced the bullets that rained down, and were also advancing in the direction of the door opening, directly impacting them.
When Zhu Wei saw this, he was even more anxious, so that the firepower would hit harder, and the shells would be fired out again.
The artillery in the doorway continued to bombard.
The mortars on the Great Wall also went out to bombard the Xianbei people advancing outside.
However, the Xianbei cavalry, dodging all the firearms, and just after the shells of the door hole were fired, they rushed like a strong wind from the edge of the Great Wall to the door hole.
"Reload, fight!"
Zhu Wei shouted anxiously.
Before the artillery could fire, the cavalry had already rushed over, and the knight at the head took out a lit explosive bag and threw it directly into it, and then the cavalry turned around and ran, running very fast, and immediately out of the range of the bullet.
"Run!"
Zhu Wei saw the moment the explosive bag was thrown in, turned around and fled to the rear.
Seeing this, the other soldiers ran faster.
As soon as they ran out of the door, there was a loud "boom".
The explosive package exploded, and the artillery and shells in the door hole were affected by the explosion, and they exploded together, and on both sides of the door hole, flames erupted, and even the Great Wall shook, and the masonry on the outside was shaken and fell.
The machine gunner who fired the gun on the castle tower almost fell to the ground unsteadily.
Zhu Wei ran out, but they were also hit by the explosion, fell hard, and let out a wail.
By the time the explosion had subsided, the inside of the door was full of mess, and even the walls had cracked.
"Kill it!"
Tuobali shouted slightly.
The Xianbei soldiers beside him, like wolves and tigers, rushed towards the doorway.
The machine gunners on the Great Wall saw this and continued to shoot back, but those iron shields blocked the bullets, and the Xianbei people had already rushed into the doorway, and the artillery was useless.
Zhu Wei was disgraced, got up in embarrassment, and saw the Xianbei people rushing into the Great Wall, and hurriedly shouted: "All assembled, come down and fight back!" ”
All the soldiers immediately went to the doorway.
But as soon as they had gathered together, the Xianbei people parted through the doorway.
Tuoba Liwei also had artillery, and a cannon bombarded in, although it was an iron bullet, it still caused a certain impact, and the military spirit on Zhu Wei's side was disrupted by artillery.
Zhu Wei could only give an order to let everyone, bring all kinds of equipment, and retreat to Jiuyuan City.
Prepare for the defense of the city.
But he was not confident, and even if he returned to the city, he did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to defend it.
"Keep attacking!"
Tuoba Liwei was suddenly excited, after many years, he could finally cross the Great Wall again, kill Jiuyuan County, and soon be able to defeat this place.
"Into the city, into the city!"
Zhu Wei shouted: "Open the cannon!" ”
Above the tower, there are also a lot of artillery.
Now Tuoba is weak, chasing after Zhu Wei's rear, the artillery on the city tower is rapidly shooting out, and the sound of explosion echoes in the Xianbei army.
Even their shields could not stop the artillery bombardment.
After a round of shelling, the Xianbei people who came over finally stopped.
Zhu Wei smoothly retreated into the city, wiped the dust off his face, exhaled vigorously, and shouted: "Block the city gate, don't let the Xianbei people approach, continue to fight!" ”
Tuoba Liwei was about to attack again, but more dense shells came down from the tower.
The gap in weapons was revealed.
Yang Zhao's firearms were even more powerful, and as soon as Tuoba Liwei's artillery was pushed forward, the mortars were blown up.
Once again, he was bombarded by fire, and Tuoba Liwei had to retreat, stopping and camping for a while, and then looking for an opportunity to attack the city.
Meanwhile.
in the cloud.
"General, on the Great Wall, a beacon fire has been lit."
A pro-soldier ran back and said hurriedly: "The beacon fire is coming all the way from Jiuyuan!" ”
