Chapter 701: Making a Breakthrough
The scattered arrows were quickly picked up by Zhao Yun and his troops.
What is the situation of Sima Yi and the others, Yang Zhao can't see it, but he can guess that they noticed Zhao Yun's movements, and they must be secretly happy, thinking that they are stable.
"I don't think I'll attack again today."
Yang Zhao thought for a while and said: "If the Xianbei people come to attack tomorrow, we will deliberately release the water and let them kill on the edge of the trench, but we must do a good job of defense." Zilong's heavy cavalry, using horse lances to deal with the enemy close to the trenches, gave Sima Yi a little hope, so that they could attack more frantically and not be willing to retreat. ”
While Sima Yi wanted to drag Yang Zhao to death and die here, Yang Zhao was also trying to find ways to delay Sima Yi near the high ground.
See who can have the last laugh.
Yang Zhao is still full of trust in Guo Jia and them.
As long as it goes according to plan, even if it is delayed for a few days, it is not a problem.
They are confident that they will be able to accomplish this plan.
The waiting time passed quickly.
Sima Yi had not attacked at night, and when it was the morning of a new day, Yang Zhao got up again and looked outside.
The army of Xianbei began to assemble again.
"I'm ready to fight again."
Zhuge Liang also looked down and said softly: "According to the time we agreed, the reinforcements will arrive the fastest and will arrive tomorrow, if we don't see anyone coming tomorrow, we need to support it for a few more days." ”
Yang Zhao said confidently: "Just do a good defense!" ”
Their defenses were laid down not long ago.
The sound of trumpets and war drums echoed beneath the heights.
Sima Yi gathered the Xianbei people and launched another attack on the high ground, tens of thousands of troops rushed up together, the artillery opened the way, the iron shield defended, the infantry followed, and soon approached the edge of the trench.
The soldiers around him, after receiving Yang Zhao's order, knew that they needed to release water and give Sima Yi below a little hope, so they deliberately behaved that the defense was more difficult and let them kill them.
All the way to the trenches!
"Zilong, arrange!"
Yang Zhao saw this and shouted loudly.
"Separate!"
Zhao Yun shouted.
All the knights of the heavy cavalry, at this time, separated to the north and south sides of the trench, holding their horse lances, and when they saw the Xianbei soldiers who had been killed, they directly stabbed out.
The soldiers of the Xuanjia Elite Cavalry did not have a long weapon like a horse lance, but their ring-headed knives were ready, and they also had bows and crossbows to help the knights of the heavy cavalry kill the enemy and make up for the leaks.
The dragon and tiger guards led by Xu Chu and Dian Wei defended on the east and west sides of the trenches.
There are also some Xianbei soldiers who continue to climb up from the east and west, and attack with muskets when they get close.
The two guards of the dragon and tiger raised their shields to block the enemy's bullets and arrows, and Dian Wei and Xu Chu took the opportunity to raise their weapons and kill them.
The two sides have been facing each other in the trenches for so long, and this is the first time that they have been in close combat.
Yang Zhao and they occupy the high ground and have more advantages.
Xianbei people are attacking, or attacking, although they have already killed the trenches, but it is Yang Zhao who deliberately released water to do it.
The soldiers around Yang Zhao are still fighting hard.
The counterattack came fiercely.
"Kong Ming, you follow me!"
Yang Zhao shouted, raised his spear, and killed the Xianbei people who came up one by one.
The most important thing is to protect Zhuge Liang.
However, the scribes of this era, or scholars, actually had the ability to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy with a sword, and they were not so weak.
Zhuge Liang was no exception, he lifted a ring-headed knife and killed several enemies close to the trenches, but his physical strength was not as good as Yang Zhao's, and he quickly ran out of breath, after all, he was not a professional general.
"Lord, I can kill the enemy again!"
Zhuge Liang gritted his teeth, picked up the knife and continued to kill again.
The fighting on the edge of the trenches became more and more intense.
However, Yang Zhao and them can all block it, the horse lance stabs from a distance, the ring head knife makes up the knife at close range, plus the advantage of occupying the terrain, but on the surface, they deliberately show weakness, but in fact, there is no problem at all.
Below the heights.
"Hahaha......"
Bu Dugen was laughing wildly, and said excitedly: "Zhong Da is right, Yang Zhao doesn't have many supplies, and he is about to be hit by us, and he will soon be able to occupy all the heights, hahaha!" ”
Sima Yi's expression relaxed slightly.
Yesterday's attack, they had broken through to within thirty paces.
Today, they are even more on the trenches, which is a major breakthrough for them, and it also shows that Yang Zhao is very powerless now.
To take the trenches, it is only a matter of time.
Victory is coming soon.
"Yang Zhao is already at the end of the crossbow, even if he can't occupy the high ground today, I am confident that he can do it tomorrow!" Sima Yi said confidently.
Hearing his words, the others laughed excitedly and felt stable.
After killing Yang Zhao, the vast land of the Han Dynasty was waiting for them to conquer.
In the future, you can live a beautiful little life.
Kobe Bryant smiled and said: "Yang Zhao, he deserves this!" ”
Dare to plan to destroy them Xianbei?
You deserve to be dead!
"That's right!"
Pu Tou echoed and said loudly: "Zhongda, should we increase our forces and continue to attack?" Strive to kill it today! ”
He couldn't wait to kill Yang Zhao.
After listening to Pu Tou's words, Sima Yi made a simple judgment and nodded: "Yes!" ”
Therefore, those few Shan Yu continued to arrange, increased the troops, strengthened the impact on the high ground, and attacked the high ground completely regardless of the cost of troops.
At this point, the cost of troops has long ceased to matter.
As long as Yang Zhao can be killed, the lost troops will be made up sooner or later.
They're attacking like crazy right now.
"Lord, the enemy has increased its troops!"
Zhao Yun said loudly.
Yang Zhao could see that another group of Xianbei soldiers had joined the rear army that was attacking the high ground.
The pressure on them is even greater.
Yang Zhao said: "Stabilize it all, get the explosives ready!" ”
They continued to resist and fight, and soon killed a group of Xianbei people who came up, and some soldiers risked throwing hundreds of explosives out.
The explosives rolled downwards and fell into the Xianbei soldiers, and then exploded with a "boom".
The Xianbei soldiers who followed in the back row were all affected by the explosion and were blown up.
"Fight back, don't let them go to the trenches again!"
Yang Zhao said again.
Hearing that they could kill the enemy, the soldiers took action, and crossbow arrows were fired, and explosives were thrown.
The Xianbei soldiers in the back were blown up, and the fault in front was broken.
After the front was killed, Yang Zhao ordered to continue shooting, and the rain of arrows covered it, and quickly suppressed the remaining Xianbei people, and the reinforced Xianbei soldiers had not been able to keep up, and those in the front row had been suppressed back.
Yang Zhao's counterattack was carried out cleanly and neatly, and they suppressed it with strong strength, and Sima Yi's plan to attack them was so frustrated.
Seeing the situation on the high ground, Sima Yi had to order a retreat.
