Chapter 89: Medium Scheme

Hanya Seki.

Cai Wenying, who had just learned the truth, was so frightened that he ran to the arsenal like crazy, and finally found him a few gongs, and when he climbed up the wall panting with the gongs, he was frightened by the scene in front of him.

As soon as the cannon sounded, the dozen or so small boats moored in the south river suddenly lifted their canopies at the same time and sailed from the center of the river to the north bank. After a series of muffled "bang, bang, bang", a row of shield walls were erected along the shore side along the boats, and then a field of flying locusts quickly rose from each boat.

Flying locusts on fire!

Except for the pikemen, there were only five or six archers in each boat, and all of them together were no more than seventy or eighty at best. Ordinary bows and arrows can only threaten the unarmoured, and moreover, they are mainly based on suppressive probability shooting - not to mention the damage, these dozens of archers alone are barely a threat to the two thousand officers and soldiers who counterattack.

However, the target of their shooting was not people, but cars!

The few "crashes" that overturned on both sides of the closing door.

In order to prevent the fire pot from being ignited by the fire pot thrown from the closed wall, the wooden roof of the "crash" was covered with a thick layer of wet mud - and the inner layer of the roof was also nailed with a layer of quilt.

A quilt soaked in grease!

The ram was fake, only the small half in front was hanging in the air, and there was no clue from the wall, but the belly of the car was full of straw and firewood mixed with sulfur and charcoal!

"Boom" and "boom" several explosions, although such a long distance, the accuracy of the rockets is extremely different, but several rounds of hundreds of rockets fell, and finally several hit the target one after another, and several crashing cars rose one after another huge flames. Although the official road before the gate was still unblocked, the flames were blazing on both sides, and under the blowing of the breeze, the scorching heat wave rolled into the official road from time to time, and the passage of the large army was hopeless in a short period of time - most of the traffic inside and outside the gate was cut off in an instant.

The fire was both a signal and an order, and the two circles on either side of the gate began to move in the direction of the wall. Looking up, I saw a stone's throw away from the wall, which was at the limit of the range of the defenders' bows and arrows, and the bamboo whistle in Zhang Ding's mouth was "Huh...... Boom, boom, boom and ...... sounded again, and with a long-short-long whistle sounded another order that everyone had memorized for a long time: change formation!

The circle unfolded, and the shield soldiers and spearmen in the back half of the circle rushed forward, and the circle turned into an arc formation, facing the battlefield with their backs to the wall. Immediately, the two arc arrays approached each other and were about to converge before the door closed.

Zhang Ding, who was behind the arc on the south side, was covered by several shield guards, staring nervously at the front - the sons and daughters on the outside were busy defending against the enemy, and it was impossible to observe their own situation in time, so they needed to complete the movement according to the orders of the bamboo sentry. "Whew...... Shout...... Whoa, whoa...... Shout...... After the two arcs converged, Zhang Ding issued a new order again, and the soldiers on the outside of the line began to gather in the middle, and finally gathered into a huge hollow phalanx: only a thin layer of guard was left on the east side facing Hangu Pass, the north and south sides were double-layered, and the west side faced the direction of the battlefield with a thick four or five layers, which were blocked on the pass. The officers and men of the counterattack, who had just been full of joy and bent on making a fortune and making meritorious contributions, were horrified to find that their retreat had been completely cut off!

"Dangchang".

The sound of the gong falling to the ground in Cai Wenying's hand woke up Qi Xiaoguang and Sun Fugui, who were stammering and looking at the battlefield. Sun Fugui shouted violently: "Close the city gate!" Come with me and close the door! Several guards immediately dispersed, dragging the surrounding soldiers to follow Sun Fugui down the wall.

Qi Xiaoguang pointed at Guan Xia painfully and shouted, "What about those people outside?" ”

Sun Fugui, whose legs had already stepped on the road, replied without looking back: "It's not helped, I can't take care of it!" If you don't close the door, you'll break the gate later! Before the words fell, the helmet on his head had disappeared from Qi Zhifu's field of vision.

didn't wait for Sun Fugui to go down to the city gate, just rushed to the corner of the road, but he didn't expect that there was a person sitting against the wall in the lower half, and he stumbled under his feet and fell headlong!

Fortunately, there were still a few guys standing below who were busy catching it, otherwise, even with the inertia of more than 200 catties of armor, Commander Sun would be disgracefully disabled on the spot if he didn't fall to death.

The guy who was kicked also rolled down the stairs and fell to the side. When Sun Fugui got up and looked fixedly, it was actually Deputy General Kou Zhizhang who had just flaunted his might and suppressed the formation!

The clever deputy general Kou had already thought about it when he didn't leave the city, and he had the largest rank among the people who attacked, and as long as he won, the credit of "being brave and invincible and leading the team to counterattack the big thief Kou" would fall firmly on his head. In order to prevent being injured by the desperate thief general, he did not join the horse team chasing the thief general, but stayed at the end of the infantry team.

Although the field of view on the horse is not as close as it is closed, it is much wider than that of the foot soldiers. Seeing that the thieves did not scatter and flee but formed a small formation, Vice General Kou hesitated and did not leave the gate too far - at this time, the attention of Qi Zhu and the others was attracted by the battlefield, and no one paid attention to him anymore. When he heard the sound of Xin'an cannons, the small circle formation turned into a large circle array, and the boat in the river shot the first round of rockets, Kou Zhizhang, who knew that something was wrong, beckoned the guards who were hugging him and turned his head and ran back. Before the second round of rockets landed, Vice Admiral Kou had already quickly flashed into the open door of the hole!

Knowing that he had caused a big disaster, he didn't dare to go up to the wall to see Qi Xiaoguang and that Sun Manzi, so he sat on the road and leaned against the wall to think about countermeasures......

Sun Fugui didn't expect that this guy who had caused a monstrous disaster under the false military order would hide here at this moment, and he would stumble over himself again! It's not just that his subordinates can't help it, and the situation is urgent and can't be delayed, so he angrily slashed his hand with a big mouth and pulled the guard who helped him off, and ran to the gate while holding the crooked helmet with one hand, and yelled: "Donkey and horse day, close the door, close the door!" What about the Japanese thief ox cart? Pull it over and plug it! Plug it up for Lao Tzu! ”

The soldiers rushed to the door, trying with all their strength to close the two closed doors.

However, it was in vain.

Because he didn't grasp the timing when he opened the door, the closing place of the two closed doors was hit by the huge ram with all his strength, the clad iron was torn and curled outward, the broken wood was supported out, and the crack of the door was still half a foot wide, and it was staggered together, no matter how desperately dozens of people pushed it, they could not make it close again.

It was too late to block the gate - the ox cart would not go backwards, so when blocking the door, the empty cart was first pushed behind the door to jam the wheels and then loaded with stones, and finally the oxen were put on the yoke so that they could be dragged out of the passage at any time according to the battle situation. Obviously, at this time, it is completely too late to unload the stone strips, untie the yoke, put the cart into place, and then load the stones!

Sun Fugui angrily ordered: "No matter what!" Plug the door knife car, push the knife car over, can block the time is a time! ”

Kou Zhizhang stopped the guards who wanted to help him up with his eyes, and at his signal, the guards dragged him to the side of the road, and Deputy General Kou simply leaned on the ground and continued to pretend that he couldn't get up, peeking to observe the movements around him.

Sun Fugui looked at the only two knife carts blocked in the door hole side by side, and the passages of more than three feet were empty on both sides, and sighed heavily.

The knife cart was the last defense against the gate, and the effect was only to delay time - the attackers could clear the passage into the city sooner or later, either by burning it with fire or by pushing it with a spear. Towering Xiongguan, well-fed defenders, ample supplies...... No one expected that the battle situation would take a turn for the worse in an instant, and they would actually use such a Raushzi!

I don't know what age the two knife cars are, there are a lot of vacancies in the knife position, not to mention, the blade is also rusty, Sun Fugui knows at a glance, and there is no other way, just a few soldiers wearing double armor pounce on it, and the people behind push hard, and this symbolic barrier will no longer exist. Well, there are so many empty sides on both sides, the horses are running, do you still need a cart! Sun Fugui gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, didn't even look at Kou Zhizhang, who was shrinking on the side of the road and continued to pretend to be dead, turned around and stepped onto the road.

Hearing the sonorous sound of clothes and armor getting farther away, Kou Zhizhang opened his eyes and got up, the person was still squatting, beckoning a guard and whispering: "Follow up and listen to what this guy is saying." Then he instructed the others: "Prepare the horses to watch, and you have to prevent those guys from throwing us off!" ”

Guan Peizhong made a big circle to the north, and because the horse had run to close to full speed, he galloped to the foot of the mountain under the action of inertia before turning back to the east and galloping towards Hangu Pass. Mercedes-Benz Zhongguan Qian looked sideways at the battlefield. As expected, the team of thieves and horses who rushed out of Xin'an City had already divided into dozens of small columns, and each of them rode in a column of three or two to pounce on the officers and cavalry scattered everywhere.

Many officers and soldiers made the same mistake as Yuan Wu in their eagerness: first reined in their horses and stopped, and then turned back and ran. The anxious Guan Qian scolded in his heart: Stupid pig, how can you escape? Run away as you accelerate! As long as you survive this wave, you will have more than half a chance to escape back - on the way back, in order to intercept you, the column of thieves will also disperse, so that the second encounter, you only need to dodge the guy in front of you with a gun, or a knife! And then...... Then I'll run back to Kannai! Otherwise, do you think you are Zhao Zilong, can you kill seven in and seven out?

I thought to myself, the horses were galloping. Due to a big circle, in fact, Guan Peizhong had already left the main battlefield far away, and the group of enemy horsemen who first rushed out of Xin'an had already rushed to the phalanx in front of their own gate at this time, completed the staggered detour, and were returning to the west.

Fortunately, maybe it was the flying dust that obscured the vision, maybe it was not true against the sun, or maybe it was simply luck, most of the enemy horsemen didn't notice the lonely Guan Qianzong on the edge of the battlefield, and they all fought back to the battlefield without raising their heads. There was only one enemy horseman, his face was not real, but the high helmet showed that he should be the leading thief general, and he looked at himself in the middle of the gallop, and provocatively pointed the riding gun in his hand at Guan Pei's middle finger, and then swept back, drawing an arc, and then galloped into the dusty war group. Guan Peizhong didn't care about responding to the provocation, and galloped all the way to the gate without danger, and then leaned against the wall and went straight to the gate.

Of course, the horse team that Guan Shengyun attacked here was led by Gu Baisong, but it was Gu Baihua who rushed out first.

In this battle, the previous feints to lure the enemy were Zhang Ding's Perak battalion and Gong Derun's half of Zhenyong's battalion, as well as more than 2,000 elite auxiliaries from Guoqinglin. The other half of the Zhenyong battalion temporarily served as the escort of Guan Shengyun and others, and they were also suspicious soldiers to lure the enemy. In order to paralyze the defenders, adding that they are just bluffing and will not take the wall hand-to-hand combat seriously, the thousand and five soldiers of the two main battalions are either leather armor or half armor, plus the key protection of the shield soldiers, it is not a big problem. When Kou Zhizhang opened the gate, half of the Zhenyong battalion temporarily pretending to be a general escort had already joined the round formation with Zhang Ding as the commander-in-chief, and Guan Shengyun, Gong Derun and the others had only one thing left: run!

Continue to lure the enemy.

In Xin'an City, in fact, there were only Sheng Yun's personal guards Poxiao Battalion and Gu Baihua's Gangfeng Battalion, as well as Gu Baisong's horse team, and the rest were the other two thousand auxiliary soldiers Ding Zhuang. Gao Tengdou, You Futian, a total of five battle battalions and the main force of Guoqinglin's auxiliaries are missing, and they have been away for several days.

There was no battalion officer in the Breaking Sky Camp, and it was led by Guan Shengyun himself. Neither did the Gangfeng battalion. Guan Shengyun, Gong Derun and others went out of the city to lure the enemy, so those who stayed in the city belonged to Gu Baihua as the largest. The cats were looking at the battlefield at the head of the city, and Gu Baihua's heart was like seven or eight kittens hidden, scratching left and right, eager to grow wings and fly into the battle group, not to mention the uncomfortable energy. I don't know how many private babies he muttered in his mouth, and the people around him didn't know whether he was scolding the officers and soldiers guarding the gate or the marshal of his own army, and no one dared to ask him anyway.

Hearing Guan Shengyun's pretended to urge the drums, and seeing that everything was as expected by the military advisor, Gu Baihua, who couldn't bear it anymore, called Jia Yanzi, the boss of the team B and thieves, to the wall, and asked him to be a temporary battalion officer and wait for the whole battalion to attack, and told Liang Laosi to guard the wall, and when the next few handsomes ran back, when they could recognize the face of the big handsome and when they lit the cannon, he turned around and got off the city wall, stepped on the horse and squeezed to the side of Gu Baisong, who led the team.

Gu Baisong glanced at his brother suspiciously, and was glared at by Gu Baihua and didn't dare to say much. The Gu team didn't dare to squeak, and others naturally pretended not to see. Then as soon as the cannon sounded, Gu Baihua was the first to rush out.

The dog officer in front of him was too vegetable, and he didn't have the courage to hedge, so he actually stopped his horse and turned around and ran - no matter how smart the horse was, he couldn't understand why you didn't turn a corner while running! It's stupider than a brute. This distance is enough for Gu Baihua's horse to run at two-thirds full speed, wouldn't it be a piece of cake to catch up with Yuan Wu, who started at zero speed? Running in the same direction again, he didn't need to worry about the resistance and bruised his wrist, so Gu Baihua casually handed the horse lance forward and easily sent the tip of the spear into Yuan Wu's heart.

Many people think that the horse lance is a noble weapon, and it is spread to be miraculous. In fact, most of it is literati nonsense, just like the Hongyi cannon went down with one shot and "eroded for dozens of miles". Roughly speaking, the main difference between several similar long soldiers is the gun head: the small head is called the gun, the "gun head is only two", and the longer gun head is called the spear, such as Zhang Fei's "Zhangba Snake Spear" - no one dares to say to Zhang Sanye, "You have to save your life, save some iron on the gun head", right? The iron blade is longer (there are also iron pipes and iron hoops to protect the front end of the gun shaft), which can almost be called a lance. What is the specific name to listen to the general: he thinks Zhang Fei is powerful, and what he holds in his hand is a war spear, and if he thinks that he is called a majestic, you have to praise him for making a good horse lance...... Otherwise, it would be light to take a few mouths.

killed Yuan Wu, and the next guy Gu Baihua met actually dodged his blow, and then was slashed in the chest and abdomen by the rider behind, and his stomach and intestines flowed all over the ground.

When he came back, Gu Baihua habitually glanced around the battlefield, and an enemy horse galloping back at the foot of the mountain on the north side caught his attention. From the red tassel, it can be seen that this is an enemy general, the speed of the enemy cavalry is very fast, indicating that this battlefield is experienced, after discovering the danger, the horse to the side in time to avoid, the enemy horse galloping in the posture of the unity of men and horses, at a glance you know that it is a good hand. Gu Baihua suddenly had an urge to rush over and compete. However, he quickly calculated in his heart, an enemy general is insignificant compared to the battlefield mission of the horse team, besides, he is a little sorry to throw off the infantry team in order to get rid of it happily, and at this moment, he can't explain it anyway if he leaves the army and finds someone to fight alone, so he points to the other party with the horse lance and then sweeps backwards - this is the standard provocative action of the knight - to express his unwillingness, and then joins the battle group that blocks the enemy cavalry again.
