Chapter 14: The Dispute over Yi County (Part II)

Wang Jimeng was shot in the center of the eyebrows, fell to the ground and died, and still maintained his original appearance when he died, but at this time the Qin army was in a mess, nearly 200 people, some were shot in the abdomen, chest// or arms, or legs, they roared in pain, struggled in pain, and finally died, and the remaining more than 30 people threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground to beg to surrender.

The Jiangdong Chu army landed on the shore in a mighty way, the ship board "banged" on the shore, and the cavalry and infantry landed one after another.

The main force of the Jiangdong Chu army has been assembled on the river bank, the cavalry controls a radius of 100 li, the scouts disperse in all directions, the flags are fluttering, the drums are bursting, and soon, in the Yangtze River, there are only more than 100 empty ships left, and each ship is guarded by more than 10 people.

A large number of Jiangdong Chu troops marched to Bah County, and the people in the villages along the way panicked, their families were closed, and some of them helped the old and the young, and took refuge in the neighboring county seats, and at this time, the main force of Xiangzhuang was less than 70 miles away from Yi County.

Xiang Zhuang ordered Kong Ji to put up a list to calm the people, comfort the people along the way, and take out military rations, relief to the people, those who support the Jiangdong Chu army, can keep the peace forever, and those who oppose it will be sent to the iron mine as labor.

For a time, the people ate pot pulp, knelt all over the countryside, and greeted the Jiangdong Chu army.

Half an hour ago, Yixian County had received an urgent report, Jiangdong Chu Army had landed on the shore, and had been slaughtering in Yixian County, at this time, the city of Yixian was strictly prohibited, and all those over 10 years old and under 40 years old must all go to the city to help defend.

The people temporarily formed a militia group to guard the city, the county guard Xu Hongzhuang ordered, the houses of the five streets within the city wall should be destroyed, the stones were removed, the wood was transported to the city, and the enemy was prepared, the dung soup and urine soup were poured into the Dading, and the torches were lit below, which was called gold juice, he was far better than boiling water, and the feces carried a variety of bacteria, once the wound was sticky, it was easy to be infected and rotted, so this era used this weapon to defend the city.

There is also a kind of strong crossbow, which is a special weapon for the Qin army to defend the city, this kind of crossbow is extremely powerful, it needs to be wound with a winch, and one crossbow arrow can be fired at a time, at this time, many people are gritting their teeth and twisting the winch.

Under the city of Yixian County, outside the south gate, the Jiangdong Chu army has begun to assemble one after another, and nearly 8,000 soldiers and horses are divided into three camps, namely the front army, the middle army and the rear army.

The front army was led by Sima Hou Kaige and the school captain Gong Ao, with a total of 2,000 people, and the Chinese army was led by Xiang Zhuang, Huang Bu, Cao Feng and Kong Ji, with a total of 5,000 people.

At this time, the scouts sent by Ma Tianhong have gathered one after another, and Ma Tianhong has sent three hundred people to cut down trees and prepare the ladder, at this time, the ladder has been almost ready, Ma Tianhong drove the horse to Xiang Zhuang's side, nodded to him, and Xiang Zhuang slowly raised his right hand.

The roaring war drums beat slowly, and the low trumpets whimpered from time to time, and the war was about to start.

Soon, the Jiangdong Chu army began to change formations, the infantry and archers of the front army began to move to both sides, giving way to a straight avenue, and the Chinese army marched forward slowly, Xiang Zhuang, Di Bu, Kong Ji, and Cao Feng pressed in front of the team and appeared under the banner gate.

Gong Ao, ** song came to Xiang Zhuang's side, at this time, the chariot soldiers in front, the cavalry on both sides, in the back, is three rows of archers, the archers have pulled the bow on the string, raised in the air, behind the archers, is the Jiangdong Chu Army's Ge soldiers and halberd soldiers, as well as five hundred spearmen, through // in the formation, the formation is rigorous, and it is mighty.

At the head of the city, the county guard Xu Hongzhuang has the heart of cowardice, he saw that the Jiangdong Chu army is rigorous, everyone moves in unison, not like a rabble, if it is held with this kind of army for a long time, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Yi County to resist, and, looking at the army that has been marching in the distance, they are carrying ladders, no less than two hundred, this is the rhythm of storming the city.

On the side, the general Miao Penglu was slightly excited, he looked at the county guard Xu Hongzhuang and said: "My lord, this kind of bandit army is vulnerable, I am willing to bring 3,000 soldiers and horses to capture the thief to sacrifice!" ”

"They have distinct weapons and heavy armor, not like a rabble, you can't underestimate the enemy, it's better to defend the city strictly!" Xu Hongzhuang reprimanded unhappily, but the general Miao Penglu hurriedly said: "My lord, I am willing to make a military order, if I don't capture the thief to sacrifice, I will die in front of the adult!" ”

Miao Penglu's request for battle again, Xu Hongzhuang was moved, looking at the mighty Chu army below, nearly 10,000 people, they will not only attack a wave, and then leave in a hurry, how to repel them, it is indeed a difficult problem, and if the stalemate continues, there is no supply, no reinforcements, how can it last for a long time?

Thinking of this, the county guard Xu Hongzhuang turned around and ordered his relatives: "Take my token, go out from the north gate, detour to Shaxian County from the trail, and transfer three thousand soldiers and horses to return to the aid immediately." ”

The family left with the song, and at this time, Xu Hongzhuang ordered again: "Bring the pen!" ”

A personal entourage hurriedly went to the city tower to get the bamboo slips and pens, Miao Penglu thought that Xu Hongzhuang wanted to make himself set up a military order, so he stepped forward and prepared to take the pen, but Xu Hongzhuang did not give him the pen, but worked the bamboo slips, wrote a letter for help, handed it to another personal entourage, and ordered: "You set off from the path next to Longse Lake, rush to the river port, look for fishing boats to cross the river, ask for help from Wu Rui, the county commander of Poyang County, and ask him to send troops immediately, and we will attack from both sides to eliminate this bandit army." ”

At this time, Xu Hongzhuang's heart felt much more steady, he couldn't help but look at Miao Penglu on the side, and asked, "Are you really sure to defeat them?" ”

"Don't worry, if you don't succeed, you will become benevolent, and I will definitely kill the enemy to sacrifice." Miao Penglu gave up again.

After a short star, Xu Hongzhuang had to nod and order: "I'll give you 5,000 soldiers and horses, you kill the enemy and charge into battle, and destroy them all for me!" ”

Miao Peng was overjoyed, and immediately knelt on one knee, and the last general will never live up to the expectations of adults!

After half a pillar of incense, just as the Jiangdong Chu army and the defenders of Yixian confronted each other, and no one took the lead in attacking, the south gate of Yixian County slowly opened, and first five hundred defenders held the banner of Qin and ran to both sides of the city gate.

Soon, five thousand Qin troops ran out along the suspension bridge, and soon, in front of the suspension bridge, the powerful crossbow array and gun array of the Qin army appeared in front of the Jiangdong Chu army, and one thousand crossbowmen, three thousand spearmen and one thousand chariot soldiers were already lined up.

A middle-aged general wearing silver armor rode out of the horse, he was the partial general Miao Pengluo, and he was also the county lieutenant of Yi County, at this time, he had raised his spear, came to the front of the battle, looked at the Jiangdong Chu army in front of him, Miao Pengluo laughed fiercely.

The laughter was so uninhibited, and in his eyes, there was no trace of Jiangdong Chujun, as if in front of him was a group of ants, a group of ants that he could trample to death with his feet.

In the formation of the Eastern Chu army, Di Bu was already furious, he rode out of his horse, came to the front of the two armies, raised the spear in his hand, pointed at Miao Penglu angrily, and shouted: "The enemy general is named!" ”

Miao Penglu put // laughed: "I am the county lieutenant of Yi County, Miao Penglu who worships the general, who are you, leave your name, and leave your name in my merit book." ”

Seeing that he was speaking so arrogantly, Duo Bu was furious in his heart, but the two armies were fighting, and he was not in a hurry, Duo Bu Nai looked at Miao Penglu with angry eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "Listen, I am Poyang Fenyong Captain Duo Bu, you can quickly dismount and surrender, I can consider it, let you die happily!" ”

When Miao Penglu heard this, he was furious, waved the big knife in his hand, and went straight to the cloth to kill, and the cloth was not ambiguous, straightened the spear, and greeted Miao Pengluo, and soon, the weapons of the two collided together, and the huge fire flashed, and with the impact of the horses, the two separated again.

On the city tower, Xu Hongzhuang was full of hatred, and he also stupidly asked Poyang for help, it turned out that the people who fought with Miao Penglu under the city were the people of Poyang, who were blind and would go to Wu Rui for help.

But at this time, his personal entourage has already gone away, and it is too late to recall it, and at present, he can only stubbornly garrison Yi County, wait for the arrival of reinforcements from Shaxian County, and then make a decision.

And downstairs in the city, Duo Bu and Miao Penglu have fought several times, both of them are extremely brave, no one loses to anyone, but no one can have the upper hand, just go back and forth, fighting each other.

But the strength of the cloth is greater than that of Miao Pengluo, more than ten rendezvous, the disparity is immediate, the big knife in Miao Pengluo's hand has begun to tremble, and the spear of the cloth is stabbing faster and faster, flying up and down, elusive, so that Miao Pengluo's forehead has oozed soybean-like beads of sweat.

And in the Qin army array, a Sima saw that Miao Penglu had gradually lost his support, he secretly took out a crossbow from his arms, quietly put on the crossbow arrow, and hibernated behind a cavalryman, finally, after the battle between Duo Bu and Miao Pengluo, they separated again, seeing that Duo Bu was running in the direction of the Qin army camp, he aimed at Duo Bu with his crossbow, and just wanted to touch the strings, but a small black dot appeared in front of him, and in surprise, the movement of his hand stopped, and his eyes carefully stared at the arrival of the small black dot.

Suddenly, the black dot became larger, and he finally saw that it was an iron arrow, extremely fast, only when he reacted, the iron sword had pierced through the center of his eyebrows, and with the powerful impact of the iron sword, he flew out of the horse.

This scene was seen by Duo Bu, at this time Duo Bu had already turned his horse, and when he looked back, it was Xiang Zhuang who saved his life, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up, laughed loudly, and rode his horse to kill Miao Penglu again.

But Miao Pengluo has been touched by Sima's death, he found that he is not the opponent of Tu Bu, he began to regret it, began to fight, but the horse has run forward, he can no longer turn the direction, so he has to wave the big knife, to meet Tu Bu, but hesitation will slow down people's movements, just when he hesitated, Di Bu's spearhead has pierced his heart, "poof", Di Bu both hands forced, the whole person of Miao Penglu provoked, Jiangdong Chu Army three armies array, morale is high, Xiang Zhuang took the opportunity to draw // out of the long sword, swing forward, The low trumpets roared like wild beasts, sounding one after another.

The Jiangdong Chu army was like a flood of embankments, mountains and wild beasts, rushing to Di County, nearly 200 cloud ladders were erected on both sides of the moat, and the Jiangdong Chu army spread from all directions to the south gate of Yi County.

And the five thousand Qin troops panicked, the main general died in battle, they were like headless flies, rushing to the west, retreating to Yi County, the rout army was like a wave, wave after wave, Jiangdong Chu army was like a beast, chasing prey, killing unscrupulously.

At this time, the defenders of Yixian County had no time to close the city gate, and the army was defeated, and the Jiangdong Chu army had formed a wave, impacting the city gate, and soon, Yixian County fell into the beacon fire......
