Chapter 11 Attack

Since last night, this damn broken city has been full of weirdness!

The dying carnival certainly doesn't make sense: it's just a siege, and it's far from the stage of street fighting after the city is breached—you shouldn't be fighting, you should huddle at home and shiver—even if you're not shaking at home, you're fucking sleeping in the middle of the night!

The marshal dispatched all the cavalry early in the morning to look for enemy reinforcements - although his own soldiers came back to report that there was really no trace of the enemy from a safe distance, but the marshal still ordered a strong attack, could it be ...... What warning signal did the marshal receive from other directions?

Could it be - in other directions, if there is really a big enemy attacking?

Vice Admiral Gao Tengdou looked at the city from afar, although it was not particularly real, but there were black and miscellaneous human heads everywhere, and it would never be wrong to have only a few helmets mixed in it - the defenders were driving the people to defend the city!

This shows that the enemy's combat strength has been seriously damaged.

Under normal circumstances, when ordinary people are coerced to act as "iron walls", they are not far from the end.

But something is wrong - it has only been fighting for a while, and the enemy has not even been hurt by the skin, so why did he drive the people up the wall? It stands to reason that it won't be!

How so?

Gao Tengdou galloped closer and took a closer look.

Something really isn't right!

Look at the enthusiasm of those people...... Where is it a little like being forced to die by a knife - this is clearly a collective demonic barrier!

Although it is a back-attack, but your own trebuchet and crossbow, no matter how accurate the head, will inevitably cause some casualties to the defenders, especially so many civilians, who don't even know how to find cover, and the infantry bows that interfered with shooting in the past can effectively kill and injure, and see so much blood - why don't these dead people scatter in a hurry?

"Don't rush in!"

Vice Admiral Gao hesitated and slowed down the pace of his attack. Mr. Storyteller said: Zhuge has been cautious in his life with soldiers - even the famous Wuhou is like this, and it is necessary and necessary to leave a way back for himself.

In fact, the first person to order to slow down the pace of the attack was not Gao Tengdou, but the guerrilla Zhang Ding, who was responsible for blocking the north gate.

Among the generals under Guan Shengyun's command, Zhang Ding is the most cautious and cautious one - no wonder, Gao Tengdou You Futian are all old brothers who worked with Guan Shengyun when he was a border army, the former has a full three battalions of troops, and the latter also has two battalions, and the capital is not a little bigger than himself, Gu Baihua's barbarian's Gangfeng battalion, although it is only a battalion, but it is a super battalion with six infantry teams, and it is the most capable of fighting, everyone privately guesses, really do it, and the guards who are personally led by the marshal may not be the opponent of this fight, Baoding landlord Gong Derun's Zhenyong battalion is not a good stubble, the combat power will definitely be ranked in the top three under Guan Shuai, and he will join the gang halfway, the backbone of the Thunderbolt battalion is the two or three hundred bandits he brought before, and even the auxiliary leader Guo Qinglin does not buy his own account, and the old brothers have lost a small half of them over the years. Strength is the capital, and if you completely wipe out your subordinates, it will be even more difficult to mix in the future......

The generals who surrounded other directions also discovered this strange phenomenon one after another, and everyone took the same measures.

The generals once again sent the guards riders, who had not yet had time to recover their strength, to ask the commander about the military situation.

Guan Shengyun, who was watching the battle from a distance outside the West Gate, gritted his teeth and looked at all this happening in front of him angrily-what kind of evil was happened to the dog officer army guarding the city, and he really didn't know which one was crazy, but the veteran military affairs who had been in the army for decades, whether his subordinates were working or contributing, absolutely couldn't hide from Guan Shengyun's eyes - but there was nothing to be done about it.

Although he knew very well that there were no reinforcements in the lonely city, this fact did not help in the slightest that the situation seemed to be gradually slipping out of control: generals from all over the country sent their guards to ask for enemy reinforcements.

Where did the enemy come from?! Didn't you all fucking scout yourself!!

At first, Guan Shengyun could still pretend to answer calmly, but later he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and after scolding loudly, he simply sent his own guards to order the battalions: "There is no invincible reinforcement, continue to attack!" ”

Things do not turn out the way you want.

After receiving the order, the generals of the battalions were even more puzzled. But the military order was like a mountain, the flag was unfurled, and the front-line troops were ordered to continue to attack vigorously - however, the pro-soldier battalion or pro-army team was still held in their own hands by most of the generals: the first merit of being the first to enter the city would rather not, in case of an unforeseen situation...... The pro-soldier team piled up with a lot of silver is not only the foundation of life in the future, but also the capital to save life at critical moments!

The officers who commanded the troops at the front line also discovered problems one after another: after fighting for so long, not to mention the casualties, the physical strength of the brothers has almost reached the limit, why hasn't the pro-soldier battalion pro-soldier team with the strongest combat strength come up to help? On weekdays, these guys eat and drink well, the salaries are full, and the equipment and training are also the best. Why! Who is not raised by biological parents! Thinking of this, everyone began to make a small calculation in their hearts: the eyes of the battalion officers and the general managers quickly exchanged, and they cast meaningful glances at the generals and fruit chiefs under them......

Sun Jie keenly captured the subtle changes in the enemy's attack force, and in order to further damage the enemy's morale, he suddenly came up with an unprecedented and almost naughty idea......

Hearing Sun Jie's request, Song Mingyi's eyes widened like copper bells: "Brother Xian, you, you're not joking, are you?" ”

Sun Jie pointed to the city wall and the outside of the city, and smiled: "Big brother, the matter has come to this, even if it is the worst, what can it do?" At least, it can give more strength to the fathers and brothers, right? ”

Unable to resist the solemn insistence of the chief military officer Sun Jie, a scene that has never been seen before or after in the history of war, and which stunned both warring parties, finally appeared:

Li Jiaban, Ruixia Society, Water Sleeve Bureau...... All the opera troupes in Luzhou City have made up the city with heavy makeup - you must know that the Peking Opera that was later popular at home and abroad became the quintessence of the country when the Hui troupe entered Beijing! Don't dare to say anything else, there are opera troupes in Luzhou Mansion!

Soon, under the command of a small flag, there were three drums first: knock, knock, knock! Then nearly 100 men and women shouted in unison in various tones: "Thief, defeated!" ”

Immediately after, three neat gongs: bell, bell, bell! Nearly 100 voices shouted again: "Reinforcements, here!" ”

Knock, knock! Thief, defeated!

Bell, bell! Reinforcements, here!

On weekdays, the good guys, string masters, drummers, and dragon sets who fight openly and secretly who don't like anyone are pleasing to the eye...... A joint performance team was formed and walked around the city along the city walls!

The hot devotion instantly turned into a frenzy!

Everywhere the performance team went, the people and soldiers on that section of the city wall would erupt in earth-shaking shouts—chaotic shouts, and quickly turned into a uniform "Thief, defeated!" Reinforcements, arrived"!

Soon, the mothers-in-law and dolls of the whole city roared out with the gongs and drums.

The people on the wall, even more bloody, frantically threw everything they could catch at hand at the enemy under the city!

A bolt from the blue!

The rhythmic shouts of thousands of people were heard clearly.

The morale of the attacking side has dropped to freezing point!

Defeated?

Which direction lost?

Enemy reinforcements arrived? Where did it come from?

The dog officer army defending the city went out of the city on the other side and succeeded in counterattacking?

Will it go around the city to outflank the back road?

The generals of the battalions no longer urged the front line to storm onwards, but quietly gave the order to defend on the spot, and the momentum of the attack suddenly slowed down.

Bang, bang!

It's the roar of artillery!

There were only four tiger squat cannons in the city, and there were few skilled gunners. The artillery of this period was no problem in destroying towers and crashing cars at close range, but most of the time it was useless except to listen to a sound to scare and scare recruits: it was difficult to catch anyone with a solid iron ball, and the effective distance of a shotgun was only twenty or thirty paces. Every time a cannon is fired, it takes half a day to clean the chamber and charge the charge, and it takes up a lot of manpower. You have to bow before firing the cannon, otherwise, if you accidentally provoke the fire god to lose your temper and blow up your chest*, the casualty is guaranteed to be much greater than being directly hit by the enemy's stone thrower!

Sun Jie didn't even think about using tiger squat cannons to defend the city at first - one less iron ball cannonball, less than a last resort, it is more cost-effective to destroy siege weapons or exchange human lives - Sun Jie divided them into two groups, respectively, behind the two most threatening city gates: in case the enemy breaks the door, there is no need to aim, and a shot along the door hole is a bloody alley, and the two cannons can win a great chance for the defenders to re-block the gate.

Seeing that the enemy's morale fell, Sun Jie immediately made a decision, and the two cannons were dragged up to the city, and the gun truck couldn't wait to spit out projectiles under the city as soon as it was set up.

Bang, bang!

Did you hit a hit?

Does it matter if you hit it or not?!

What matters: the sound of cannon...... It's so loud!

Bang, bang!

Vice General Shen, who commanded the other city gatehouse, heard the cannon fire and immediately did the same.

The soldiers in the small camp outside the city gates had been fighting hard.

Today they are under the most pressure. Although there is a covering fire of the Divine Arm Bow, Bow and Arrow, and Bed Crossbow on the castle tower behind, after all, it does not have the advantage of vision and potential energy from the condescending city wall. The armourers mounted their spears on their horses and stabbed mechanically, and archers and crossbowmen kept shooting at the waves of thieves who were approaching in the cracks.

There were only more than 100 people in the barracks, and the soldiers in the front row had already rotated several times, and everyone's physical exertion was great. The soldiers who had been replaced sat on the ground, their chests heaving violently, some of them poured water from the gourds on their heads, and many of them even had spasms in their arms. However, the shouts of the city have always inspired their fighting spirit.

Hearing the sound of the cannon, watching the big iron ball whistling overhead with a roaring wind, everyone's tiredness was swept away! The soldiers in the front row roared hard and stabbed their spears farther, and the rest of the armor soldiers all stood up, struck their shields with their weapons and shouted in unison: Kill the thief, kill the thief!

The momentum of the attack has been completely contained!

The soldiers in the back row of the attacking side stopped and looked left and right, and more and more soldiers in front began to turn their heads and run back, and the drums urging the battle became sluggish and gradually thinned.

Guan Shengyun sighed helplessly: It's really hellish today!

Look at the sun sinking in the west, it is impossible to capture this broken city before nightfall.

"Forget it, collect the troops!"

I pondered in my heart: Tonight, I will convene the generals of each battalion to lead the army, and we must kill one or two of the weakest attacking team officers and pass on the leaders of each battalion!

The enemy has been crazy for a day and a night, and if he fights again tomorrow morning, he will surely be completely paralyzed on the ground......

Tomorrow (5-7 o'clock in the morning), the whole line will be launched again, and the city will be broken in one drum!

Kill!!!

* Vulcan and the Bombardment

The level of superstition of the ancients is beyond my imagination today.

"Records of Experiences on the Sea" records, "The sea shines brightly, and the country makes people have no water to ask for it, so they have two dragons for the ears of the cannon, and use the boat and car to go out, and the number is Longxi (pronounced "Gong", the meaning of cannon)." All the blows are broken".

It is estimated that a Western merchant ship sank, and it was instructed to pick up the self-defense artillery, but in order to deify, it must be said that there is a strange light in the sea. There are many such examples - Liu Bang, Zhu Yuanzhang and almost all other cattle people are born if they have five-colored auspicious clouds during the day, and if they have red light at night, they really can't figure out that the house must be full of strange fragrances during the day and at night...... But this is all nonsense, I can swear to God, my precious son was born, and the whole house was as bright as day! Well, the nurse turned the lights on......

"The Journey to the Sea" is written in black and white: "Liu Guoxuan will attack Quanjun, but Long Xi refuses to do it, and forcibly moves (pronounced "Yu", meaning two hands raised). and hair, but also non-combustible. Guoxuan was angry, the eighty of the staff, and it exploded like powder! "--I can't pull it, not to mention that the cannon is too heavy, but to blame it for not wanting to go, not lighting the fire, not checking whether the gunpowder is damp, but hitting the cannon with eighty military sticks, and finally cracking the barrel and exploding the chamber, everyone is over!
