The offensive and defensive battle of Dingbian City lasted for several days.

The trench outside the earthen city has been basically filled in. In order not to affect the siege, the Luchuan army threw the corpses of the soldiers of the two armies who died in the battle, of course, into the trenches.

The Luchuan army was desperately attacking the city every day, but in the face of the well-trained and well-organized Ming army, it always returned again and again in vain.

Every time they just climbed halfway, they were pushed down the ladder by the Ming army with a fork pole, and the soldiers above had no choice but to fall down, and they would also hit a piece of people below.

Later, the Luchuan army came up with a way, and after the ladder was erected, they hurriedly used bamboo poles and wooden sticks to resist the foot of the ladder to prevent the Ming army from having a chance to push down the ladder. I saw that they held the pole with both hands, pushed the fork rod down the ladder, and smashed the sharp horizontal blade with cutting and smashing, directly knocking the top soldier down the ladder.

There is a big smart hand to reach out and grab the back of the blade, wanting to bring the Ming army down, but as soon as the hand holds the horizontal blade, it makes a scorching sound of skin and flesh! The soldier let go of his hands like an electric shock and fell down screaming......

The same is true of the soldiers in the back, as soon as the flesh touches the horizontal blade, it will fall in pain, as if the horizontal blade has a magic attack attached to it.

In fact, it was the Ming army that lit the stove at the head of the city, and before the fork rod was used, the horizontal blades were inserted into the hearth to heat......

And the stove was still boiling water, seeing that there were enemy troops about to rush up, the Ming soldiers picked up the pot and splashed a pot of boiling water in front of them, and the effect was better than anything else.

But there are too many Luchuan troops, the soldiers above are trying their best to attack the city, and the auxiliary soldiers below are not idle, they are desperately digging the wall against the boiling water of the Ming army!

Not to mention, the effect is really good. Because Dingyuan City is only a temporary fortress built by the officials and soldiers, the city wall made of stones and adobe is less than one-tenth of the normal city wall. At the foot of the Luchuan army's unremitting digging of the wall, the wall of the earth city has been riddled with holes, and even a section of the city wall has collapsed, leaving only the rammed earth foundation.

When they saw this scene, the Dao Lang and the others on the opposite hillside couldn't help but cheer. Because in their minds, the breach of the walls is a sign of victory!

"It's really not easy...... "The knife man let out a long sigh of relief, and then sat back in his chair as if he had collapsed. Hell knows how he's been these days. It's so painful that the hemorrhoids that I'm sitting on have recurred......

"I thought I would be able to capture this small earthen city in a few days at most, but I didn't expect it to drag on for so long." The generals were also embarrassed, they watched the battle every day, watching their soldiers lose heavy losses every day, and they were also extremely tormented.

"Fortunately, everything is over...... Peng Mailang said hatefully: "When I catch the chief general of the Ming army, I will cut him with a thousand knives to vent the hatred in my heart!" ”

"No, he's a respectable opponent, we're going to give him a decent ......," the sword warrior was about to show the generosity of a victor, when suddenly a sharp-eyed general pointed to the gap and shouted:

"No, marshal, it doesn't seem to be over yet!"

"What?" Dao Lang and the others hurriedly built a pergola and looked at the gap.

I saw that the Ming army had already prepared, and had already put up the prefabricated horse rejection frame, temporarily blocked the gap, and then began to repair the city wall on the spot.

"Quick, kill them, we can't let them succeed!" The knife man jumped to his feet in anger.

Without his orders, the Luchuan army naturally wouldn't give the Ming army time to plug the gap, but they could easily chisel it!

The two sides surrounded the gap in the city wall and engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat. At this time, the gap in the quality of individual soldiers between the two sides is undoubtedly apparent.

Even in such a critical situation, even if they stepped on the broken bricks and stones all over the ground, the soldiers of the Ming army were still able to maintain their formation, using the cover of rejecting horses to form an insurmountable wall of flesh and blood.

On the other hand, the Luchuan army only knows that it will attack in a swarm, and there is no formation at all. Don't look at the ferocity of their attacks, but they can't break through the defense line of the Ming army, which combines long and short lengths, covers each other, and advances and retreats in an orderly manner.

As a result, until the Ming army re-plugged the gap, they failed to cross the thunder pool by half a step.

This is called not afraid of not knowing the goods, but afraid of comparing goods, the little overlord of the Indochina Peninsula, when he encounters the strongest army today, he completely shows the prototype......

Seeing that the Ming army responsible for blocking the attack began to withdraw in an orderly manner, the annoyed Luchuan army not only confiscated troops, but launched a more fierce attack. They want to kill all these Ming troops who were trapped outside the wall to vent their anger!

The soldiers of the Ming army were still unhurried, and the front team covered the retreat of the rear team. The soldiers on the city wall also opened their bows and arrows one after another, suppressing the red-eyed Luchuan army. But with the reduction of troops, the Luchuan army still destroyed the Ming army's rejection of horses and rushed to the Ming army.

In the end, most of the Ming army retreated to the city along the ladder, but the last sergeant of the small banner was grabbed by the crazy Luchuan soldiers, dragged to the ground, and did not put them back. Otherwise, the Luchuan army will really be suffocated to death......

~~

Watching the Ming army repair the city wall like a trick, Dao Lang angrily smashed the small table where the melons and fruits and tea were placed, and the roar resounded throughout the hillside:

"Okay, okay, play me all of them, right?! A boiled duck can make it fly again! ”

"It's really not like acting...... Peng Mailang and others whispered: "Those Ming troops are too powerful, fighting in the front row, building walls in the back row, what the is this!" ”

"There is still something for the guard," the experienced general had to be convinced: "This reaction speed is too fast......

"When I catch him, I'm going to skin him and cramp!" Dao Lang said viciously. Decent is gone!

~~

In fact, the Ming army was not so good, after the collapse of the city wall, it was also full of dangers, everyone raised their hearts to their throats, and even used reserves to stabilize their positions.

Moreover, after so many days of fierce battles, even though the Ming soldiers defended strongly, there were too many enemy troops, and the offensive was wave after wave. It also inflicted considerable losses on the Ming army.

Why did Sun Tzu say 'Ten Rules of Siege'? As long as I have absolutely enough people, even if it is a ten-to-one exchange ratio, the loss caused to you over time is quite terrible.

Hu Quan checked the gaps that had been filled, and then looked at the city wall full of soldiers.

After the fierce battle, the soldiers were all exhausted, each wounded, and had no rotation, so they could only rest on the spot while the enemy troops were withdrawn.

"This battle is getting harder and harder." Ningzheng whispered.

"Yes." Hu Quan nodded: "The enemy has too many troops, and we are naturally tired of trying to break the city." ”

"Fortunately, their tricks are all expected by the uncle." Ning Zheng couldn't help but rejoice: "Otherwise, the scene just now, I'm afraid that the city will be broken if the last general is changed." ”

"It's just a little more experience. This is the method used by King Ninghe to plug the gap when he was in Hongdu, and I just grabbed the medicine according to the prescription. Hu Quan said lightly: "If you also defend the city for three months in a row, all situations can be encountered." ”

"I hope it won't take so long......," Ningzheng smiled bitterly, "Counting up, the last general has been guarding for a month." ”

"Time is so fast." Hu Quan counted the days, and suddenly said, "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and we have to find a way to let everyone eat dumplings." ”

ps. Write tomorrow's ......
