Chapter 358: Wu Xiang is still in the trap
Sanjiaocheng only supported for three days before it fell, on the first day the Tang army arrived, on the second day the Tang army prepared to attack the city, and on the third day the Tang army entered the city.
The fall of Sanjiao City so quickly was completely beyond Xue Ting's expectations. He waved his hand and drove the defeated soldiers of Sanjiao City Bashu who came to report the news out of the camp.
One of Xue Ting's lieutenants stepped forward and saluted, "General, what now? The Tang army has a large amount of stone grease in their hands, and it has also been made into weapons, and our three lines of defense and nine camps are made of wood, and they can't prevent fire at all."
The other lieutenant nodded and said, "Yes, General, we have all seen this stone grease, and the water cannot be extinguished, so it can only be buried with sand and stones. But we are in a watery place, and it is all wet soil, and there is no dry sand at all. How do you put out the fire?"
Xue Ting said with a resolute face, "Didn't you hear it just now? The Tang Army himself was afraid of this weapon, and only dared to use it for long-range throwing, not for close use. As long as we fight the Tang Army in close combat, this stone grease will be wasted."
Several lieutenant generals looked at each other, guarding three lines of defense and nine camps, they all felt bottomless, this went out to take the initiative to face the battle, did they think that they had a long life?
Xue Ting looked at the expressions of several people, of course he knew what it meant, and he said sharply: "You have to think clearly, Sanjiao City has been lost, and if Shimen and Baozhong can't hold it anymore, the generalissimo won't let us go."
Everyone in the tent shuddered unconsciously when they thought of Li Song's ruthlessness. During this time, Li Song did not kill many people, and the Yong Dynasty clan who opposed his dictatorship also said that they would kill them, just like slaughtering dogs and chickens.
As a last resort, several people had no choice but to follow Xue Ting and lead the troops to take the initiative to go north to meet the Tang army.
At this time, Wang Ting was having lunch in Sanjiao City, he was not in a hurry to go south, he believed that as long as Xue Ting knew that he had a sharp weapon in his hand, such as a stone fat bomb in his hand, he would make a move. As for whether to fight or flee, it depends on his choice.
"Oh? This Xue Ting is a bit interesting, and he actually took the initiative to come north to meet our army."
Wang Rong put down the bamboo chopsticks, and the fifth candidate just reported the movements of the Xue Ting's department of the Bashu army.
Chang Wo took the initiative to stand up, saluted and said, "Your Majesty, please send Wu Xiang to meet the battle!"
After Chang Wo succeeded Meng Song as the commander of the Wu Xiang Division, he has never had any good records, which makes his prestige in Wu Xiang not high, and there are always some difficulties when commanding battles.
Wang Wei looked at Chang Wo, pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "Okay, General Chang, it's really time for Wu Xiang to move. General Chang will lead the army forward, and the hussars will support you at any time, just in case."
Chang Wo marched and saluted, "The last general will take orders!"
Chang Wo, Liu Linshan, Chu Luxu and Meng Sheng quickly led their troops south. Just crossed the estuary, and before he arrived at Liuba, he ran into the Bashu army led by Xue Ting.
70,000 people were crammed into the narrow ramp, and they couldn't be used at all. Chang Wo personally led the Wuxiang guards to defend a bell mouth, and withstood the attack of the Bashu army.
The spears and halberds were no longer of great use at this time, they were too crowded, and there was no room for the roots to be stabbed and wielded, and they would hurt their own people.
Chang Wo held the ring head knife, held the formation shield, and fiercely pressed against the Bashu soldiers on the opposite side. From time to time, he hands out his knife and stabs at the enemy on the opposite side, essentially taking a life from each knife.
Although Chang Wo and Wu Xiangwei tried their best to resist, they couldn't stand the large number of Bashu troops, and this road was not passable, and there were other forks in the road. When Liu Linshan saw the Bashu soldiers rushing from the other side, he waved his head knife and shouted, "Shoot them for me!"
Hundreds of crossbowmen shot arrows in their hands one after another, setting off a bloody storm among the crowd of the Bashu army.
"Doo! Chemical element! Doo!"
The rattan card of the Bashu army was very strong, and it blocked the crossbow arrows of the Tang army, and kept moving forward.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Linshan picked up a stone fat bottle and threw it over, and the soldiers around him saw the actions of the main general, and immediately understood, opened their bows and arrows, ignited them with fire, and then shot out.
"Coax! ——」
At this time, Liu Linshan had already thrown out four or five stone fat bottles, although the rattan card was hard, but this kind of shield soaked in grease was very afraid of fire, and soon became a nightmare for the Bashu army.
Holder of a rattan card
The Bashu soldiers hurriedly threw away the lit rattan card, and then they ushered in an even greater nightmare.
"Shoot them for me!"
Without the protection of the rattan card, the Bashu soldiers were attacked by the arrows of the Tang army.
Here, Chang Wo was concentrating on stabbing and stabbing, and he couldn't help but burst in front of him, and a few clumps of stone grease stained his shield.
Before Chang Wo could react, more than a dozen rockets flew overhead and landed in the Bashu army in front of him, and the fire immediately raged.
"Rub! ——」
Chang Wo hurriedly retreated, relying on his body, and let him retreat to the back.
Angry, he turned around and yelled, "Which deflated calf?! Didn't you see Lao Tzu fighting in front?! Just threw such a dangerous thing here!"
Liu Linshan rushed to Chang Wo's side, dragged him out of the crowd, and said loudly, "Old Chang! Don't do it! The number of this Bashu army is too many, at least 40,000. We only have 15,000 Wu Xiangwei, and if we continue to fight so hard, we will suffer a big loss."
Chang Wo shook his shoulders, broke free from Liu Linshan's pull, and said sharply, "What is the predecessor of our martial arts?!" It's a trap! How many have been trapped and died on the battlefield, without complaint or regret. Why did you change your name and change from a man to a girl? How I don't believe it! Boys! Spear wielding! Let me push back the turtle sons of the Bashu Army!"
As he spoke, ignoring Liu Linshan's dissuasion, Chang Wo rushed forward again with a spear in his hand. Seeing that the main general was so fearless of death, a large number of Wu Xiangwei abandoned the ring head knife that had cut a gap, picked up the spear and rushed forward, stabbing at the Bashu army. At this moment, it is no longer possible to care about injuring one's own people by mistake, and everyone will not survive if they are broken through the defense line by the Bashu army.
The bloody battle lasted for more than an hour, and in the end, the Bashu army could not withstand such large casualties and retreated. Chang Wo and Liu Linshan saw the retreat of the Bashu army, and hurriedly got out of the way and let the hussars go in pursuit.
At this time, Wang Rong came to Changwo with a group of generals of the Armed Guards, Wang Rong walked on the ground softened by blood, and his precious deerskin boots stepped into a pool of blood, not caring at all.
Chang Wo and Liu Linshan supported each other and saluted Wang Rong, who hurriedly took two steps forward, gave a military salute with a respectful face, and said, "I only learned today that Wu Xiang is still the one who is trapped, still brave and good at fighting, and very strong."
Chang Wo and Liu Linshan hurriedly saluted and said, "Thank you for the praise."
Wang Rong shook his head and said, "This is not a compliment, it is a fact, in this battle, the Bashu army lost at least more than 5,000 corpses, which is a great victory!" General Chang and General Liu have made great contributions."
