Chapter 244: Shoot King Yu Cheng! The end of the Battle of Hanwan
On the city wall, after Huo Guang and King Yu Cheng outside the city had a fool's time, he changed people to talk to King Yu Cheng.
He asked someone to call a jar of Dawan wine that he scavenged from King Yucheng's mansion and tasted it carefully.
"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink pipa, urge immediately."
"Tsk"
After Huo Guang smashed his mouth, he continued to read: "Drunk and lying on the battlefield, how many people have come back to fight in ancient times?" ”
"Good poetry, good poetry!"
"It's a pity, it's a pity"
This is "Liangzhou Ci" written by Wang Han in the Tang Dynasty, because it is something from the Tang Dynasty, it will definitely feel a little strange in the Han Dynasty.
If it was in Chang'an, Huo Guang would definitely not talk about this kind of thing.
Not to mention whether the Han Dynasty could accept the format of Tang and Song poems, it was considered that he could accept it.
Huo Guang is too lazy to get this style of pretending to be holy in front of others through other people's poems.
Without him!
Only the status is transcendent!
As for why Huo Guang is reading this poem now?
Well!
Boring and passing the time.
In addition, his 4,000 men and horses are all big and coarse, who can understand this?
Here, Huo Guangzheng's praise of Dawan's wine was slightly different from Chang'an, and Zhao Da on the side stared at Huo Guang's drinking bowl with a bull's eye, and asked, "General, why don't we do it directly with King Yu Cheng?" ”
"He has Li Guangli in his hand, this grandson is very afraid!"
"Exactly."
"I saw that he was uncomfortable, so I went out and chopped him up with that Yu Chengwang. When the court asked, it said that it was for the Dawan people to be killed. ”
Hearing Zhao Daniu's words.
Huo Guang couldn't help but smile dumbly and said, "Huh~"
"Big cow!"
"I usually look at you honestly, why do you have this bad trick, and say that Dawan people did it."
Zhao Daniu heard Huo Guang teasing him, so he had to scratch his head in embarrassment, and said: "I just want to have a good time with these Dawan people, he is always besieged by people, holding his fart, he is uncomfortable!" ”
Huo Guang finished drinking a bowl of wine by himself, picked up the wine glass again, filled the wine, handed it to Zhao Da Niu, and said, "Da Niu, let me tell you, this is not how wars are fought!" ”
"It depends on the time of day and the right place."
"Just rush out, isn't that the same as Li Guangli's stupid person!"
"Here, take a sip too."
Zhao Daniu took the wine handed over by Huo Guang, and without thinking, he drank it all in one go.
Huo Guang scolded angrily: "Eh, you rabbit cub, just take a sip, why don't you drink it all for me!" ”
Zhao Daniu touched his mouth after drinking, and then said: "I still think the bowl is small, how can I drink such a little wine!" ”
After speaking.
He placed the bowl on the dining table, and then stared at the jar of wine on the floor with his eyes still stunned.
Looked at.
Huo Guang had no choice but to pat Zhao Daniu's arm and said, "When you win this battle and go back to Chang'an, you can drink as much wine as you want, and how much you want to drink, the wine here is almost meaningless!" ”
Chang'an is the capital of the Han Dynasty, and the wine is naturally excellent, how can it be compared to this small country.
Of course.
Small countries also have the characteristics of small countries.
Although the Han Dynasty is large, it cannot be exhaustive, for example, the Dawan horse is generally better than the horse of the Han Dynasty.
Thereinto.
It is most famous for its sweaty BMW.
As for Huo Guang not letting Zhao Daniu drink, the main thing is that the affairs of Dawan Kingdom are not so simple to fight a battle.
There are many things that need to be dealt with later.
For example, how to deal with the monarch of Dawan Kingdom, as well as deal with the matter of Dawan's annexation to the Han Dynasty.
Of course, that's all for later!
The first thing to do now is to defeat the 30,000 elites of Yucheng King outside the city.
Huo Guang looked up at the sky, he almost couldn't open his eyes due to the dazzling sunlight, and then blocked it with his hand, and the sunlight could only shine on his hand.
"The gate of Yucheng City faces east, and the sun is also in the east at this moment, and it is not good for our army to fight at this moment!"
"You need to wait for the sun to set in the west, and the afterglow will dazzle the direction of the Dawan army's attack before you can attack."
"That's it."
"Da Niu, you pass my order, three hours later, open the city gate and face King Yu Cheng!"
After hearing Huo Guang's order, Zhao Daniu immediately smiled and said, "Okay, you can finally let go and fight with them." ”
"General."
"Then I'll go deliver the order first!"
Huo Guang smiled and nodded, then waved his hand: "Go!" ”
"No!" Zhao Daniu arched his hand and went to convey the order.
Huo Guang looked at Zhao Daniu's back and fell into deep thought for a while. The three hours of the ancient times are almost equivalent to the six hours of modern times.
In six hours.
It's not too long, it's not short.
As long as there are no variables in the city, with high city walls and thermal weapons such as artillery and firecrackers, it is difficult for this Dawan army to attack the sky.
What Huo Guang was most afraid of was that they would besiege but not attack.
But.
Yu Chengcheng has one good thing, that is, it is not like the Second Master City, which lacks food resources. Here, it is the base camp of King Yu Cheng, and there is still a lot of food to fill the hunger.
One more point.
His family members are all in the city!
Siege?
If he said that he wanted to starve the Han army to death, first of all, he had to starve to death the residents of Dawan City.
King Yu Cheng either didn't recognize his six relatives, or he could only attack the city head-on.
This is also why Huo Guang risked his life to make this kind of salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, and it took time and effort to rush hundreds of miles from Ershi Cheng to kill Yu Chengcheng.
What Huo Guang has to do now is to wait quietly for the three hours to pass.
However.
What Huo Guang didn't expect was that in the next three hours, King Yu Cheng actually made a desperate decision to attack the city directly, and it seemed that he couldn't wait for a moment.
This made Huo Guang very puzzled.
In the military, the most taboo is impatience!
Huo Guang really couldn't figure it out, what was this King Yu Cheng anxious about, although Yu Chengcheng had been occupied by Huo Guang.
But this territory is still within the territory of Dawan Kingdom.
should be in a hurry, it should be Huo Guangcai.
"Is it because he is afraid that our army will hurt his family members in the palace?" Huo Guang frowned slightly and thought about it.
Whether it is a human or the rest of the animals, as long as it is a small harm, they will be anxious.
In Yucheng's mansion, there are indeed a few children, perhaps, a few of them are his cubs of Yucheng Wang.
Come to think of it.
Huo Guang furrowed his eyebrows tightly, thinking about whether to do it or not.
Suddenly.
The shouts of killing outside the city became fierce again, and there were even large troops riding something like a ladder to cross the city wall and kill directly into the city.
Immediately, a soldier came to report: "Report! ”
"General Chesar, the enemy is coming up again."
"I don't know if I got a siege ladder this time, what should I do?"
Hearing this, Huo Guang immediately said, "Quick, pour hot oil!" ”
Thereupon.
From last night to now, all the cooking oil scavenged from Yu Chengcheng's door-to-door search has been poured on the siege ladder.
However, Huo Guang arranged for the archers to shoot rockets at the Dawan enemy who was holding the ladder below.
Time.
The screams were incessant, like hell on earth.
At this moment, Huo Guang seemed to be like a Shura from hell, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of Dawan soldiers.
It's cruel.
But war is like that.
Once activated, either you die or I die.
If Huo Guang didn't kill them, these enemies would climb up the ladder like tarsal worms, and then kill Huo Guang and them.
"Strange, how can this Dawan's King Yu Cheng command the army to attack, so impatient?" Huo Guang squinted his eyes slightly, then suddenly looked to the other side, and asked, "Hey, what did you say just now when you asked you to take over Ben Hou and Yu Chengwang?" ”
"I didn't say anything, just scolded him!" The soldiers looked at each other for a moment.
Seem.
It's like you've made a mistake.
Huo Guang hurriedly said: "Don't grind, say it quickly, what did you scold?" ”
When the soldiers who shouted heard this, they had no choice but to say: "General, we didn't scold anything, just said, King Yu Cheng, I will be your ancestors, give a word, attack the city or not the city." If you don't attack the city, Lao Tzu will go to your palace and sleep with your mother-in-law. ”
"Huh?" Huo Guang grinned.
Boy!
This feels a little familiar.
But.
Thinking about it, you also know that King Yu Cheng is not an ordinary person, if it is because of the swear words of the little soldier, he will be impatient to attack the city.
Then he is not worthy of being Huo Guang's opponent at all!
Of course.
The enemy didn't have time for Huo Guang to think about it, and after King Yu Cheng was frustrated again and again, he launched even more crazy attacks again and again.
until three hours have passed.
The gate of Yu Chengcheng was opened.
Less than 4,000 soldiers and horses rushed out like fish, confronting the "elite" army of King Yu Cheng's repeated attacks and setbacks in the sea of corpses and blood.
At this time.
Yu Chengwang has 30,000 elites, but there are less than 20,000!
Huo Guang rode the war horse that stayed in the city to guard the army in Yucheng City, lined up with Zhao Daniu, and led his subordinates, corresponding to Yu Chengwang Yao.
When King Yu Cheng saw Huo Guang leading the army out, he wondered in his heart.
These Han Chinese.
Originally, he was like a lock turtle in the city, and he didn't come out to fight alive or dead.
And now it's actually out?
This made Yu Chengwang's original impatient mentality suddenly become cautious.
"Wang, the Han people have always been cunning, and this sudden appearance to fight must be strange!" The advisers under King Yu Cheng communicated with King Yu Cheng in the language of Dawan.
Hearing this, King Yu Cheng nodded.
As a matter of fact.
There is no need for a strategist to remind him, King Yu Cheng has already thought of this.
But he really couldn't figure it out.
The Han army was already less than 4,000, and the elite losses under his command were nearly one-third, and there were still 20,000 soldiers and horses.
Why did the Han army rush out of the city to confront him?
Yu Chengwang didn't think of a reasonable reason for a while.
But at this moment, under the sunlight, beads of sweat overflowed from the corners of his forehead.
Yu Chengwang stretched out his hand to wipe his sweat, just to cover the sun and sprinkle it on his face, which made him notice the direction of the sun.
Immediately, he exclaimed: "Huh? ”
Forthwith.
He looked at his 20,000 elites again, and as the sun shone, many soldiers were already showing their tired appearances.
The so-called again and again, and then decline, three and exhaustion!
The repeated siege setbacks have caused the morale of King Yu Cheng's soldiers and horses to plummet.
In addition, he set off from Yu Chengcheng to Ershi City, and rushed back to Yuchengcheng overnight through Ershi City, and experienced all the burning of grain and grass in the middle.
Army soldiers, they can't even eat.
There is still a little spirit at all.
"It's a trick, it's a trick!"
However, at the moment when King Yu Cheng lost his mind, the Han army of less than 4,000 on the opposite side broke out with a huge shouting of killing and had already rushed towards them.
They!
Apparently he had eaten and drunk enough in the city, and he had recuperated himself.
This state of affairs has made the combat effectiveness of both sides suddenly stretched. Don't look at the small number of people, but fighting the Dawan army is as simple as a knife tearing open tofu.
And Zhao Daniu, who rushed to the front of the team, was like a killing god, and everywhere he passed, all the people who were cut by him turned over on their backs!
In fact!
In the face of the Han army's battle charge of less than 4,000.
The easiest way to deal with it is to concentrate the archers on the attack and open the distance.
It's a pity that during the last round of siege, due to the Han army's artillery and ammunition, this King Yu Cheng directly approached Yu Chengcheng with a large army, and it seemed that he was preparing for a battle.
This also caused the Han army to rush out directly when the city gate was wide open, and they could quickly rush and kill them.
Fight?
The best part?
Formation!
The Han army only had less than 4,000 people, but this was 4,000 soldiers and horses who survived from tens of thousands of troops!
Which is not a powerful character?
And!
There are few people, but the formation can echo from end to end, unlike the 20,000 elites under King Yu Cheng, who were directly broken through the defense.
Time.
It is obvious that the troops under King Yu Cheng have not adapted to the transition from offense to defense, and the fighters are rapidly attrition.
It is true that his combatants are several times that of Huo Guang's side.
But this is an ancient war.
There is no modern kind of thermal weapon that can overturn it all in one shot, which also leads to the fact that the less than 4,000 Han troops led by Huo Guang can be concentrated in the opponent's chaotic lineup and slashed at will.
At the same time, only a few thousand people could fight with the Han army, and the Dawan army in the distance did not even dare to put bows and arrows.
Because the arrows that fly randomly will also shoot at their own people who are fighting.
As a general!
Huo Guang is naturally the first to take the lead at this moment, and he is at the forefront of the army.
As more and more Dawan people were cut down to the ground by him, his body was also stained with bright red blood.
The swarthy ring-headed knife, the sharp edge of the original vanguard, also cut the blade.
The soldiers' hooks were all broken, and many of them were left with small shields in the middle.
On the contrary.
It is the life of the Dawan people who disappear quickly, and the morale that is rapidly declining.
Face the Han army like a bloody demon god!
Yu Chengwang's "elite" was already frightened, and for a while, the army's heart was disheartened and it collapsed.
This is often the case in human wars.
Once the morale of the army is weakened!
It is easier to annihilate 100,000 enemy troops than to kill 100,000 pigs.
If one escapes, two will be swept away, two will take four, and four will scare eight away. swept back, and even the only backbone of the Dawan people, King Yu Cheng, saw that the situation was not good, and he also ran away on horseback.
But Huo Guangke kept staring at him!
"Chase, anyone can let go, but King Yu Cheng must not let him run!"
Huo Guang drank loudly, then pinned the ring head knife to his waist, held the horse's belly between his legs, and chased in the direction of Yu Chengwang's escape.
But King Yu Cheng's mount is the best of Dawan's horses.
is like a war horse under Huo Guang's crotch, ordinary, I'm afraid it will be difficult to catch up.
This time.
Huo Guang would be a little nostalgic for Da Hei, if Da Hei also brought to the battlefield and participated in this battle. Presumably, with Da Hei's vigor, he will be able to catch up with King Yu Cheng.
Seeing that there is no hope of catching up.
Huo Guang was about to pinch the ring knife to his waist, then took the bow and arrow from his back, bent the bow and arrow, aimed at the front of Yu Chengwang's escape, feeling the flow of air, and in an instant, his sharp eyes were already locked on the other party, and the bowstring in his hand was sent.
I saw the arrow break through the air and shoot towards the front of King Yu Cheng.
When the two met, they saw King Yu Cheng, who had been hit by an arrow in the chest, and fell directly from the horse. (End of chapter)
