Chapter 550: Street Fighting
( ) Chen Yan was lurking in the alley at this time, and he couldn't hear the sound of horses' hooves outside at all, he was vigilant in his heart, knowing that Cheng Yu would not be fooled again, and this time it was probably not the cavalry who came.
The advantage of the topography of the alley is only at the mouth of the alley, because the alley is narrow, Cheng Yu can't give full play to the advantage of numbers, but if he breaks through the alley, then the whole situation will be turned upside down, so Chen Yan's top priority is to hold the alley!
He must not be allowed to break through!
Chen Yan held his breath and listened carefully, and suddenly heard footsteps outside!
In this heavy snow, anyone stepping on the snow will inevitably make a sound, which is the best martial artist, and it is inevitable that the snow under his feet will make a "creaking" sound.
Not to mention a group of soldiers who are still good at martial arts and are not good at it!
Chen Yan heard it in his ears, and he already knew that the people who came were a group of infantry, since they were infantry, then they must be fully armed, and they could no longer be broken with bows and arrows, not to mention that Chen Yan's archers were short of ammunition at this time, and it was a time to cherish them.
The consideration has been decided, Chen Yan whispered an order, "Sword and axeman, prepare to step forward!" ”
This word spread all over the two alleys in an instant, and for a time the sword and axe hand Hulala stood in the forefront, although the number of the five hundred knife and axe hands under Chen Yan was not large, but all of them were strong people with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, these people were specially selected by Chen Yan to fight hand-to-hand in the streets of the Beihai, if it was a close combat, I am afraid that the elite of the Cao army may not be an opponent.
Not to mention Cheng Yu's infantry at this time, these infantry themselves are the cavalry of the East Third Battalion, Cheng Yu specially rode and galloped in order to rescue Xiahou Yuan, and did not wear heavy armor, although they were all wearing shields at this time, but after all, they were only light equipment, and they were not as well dressed as Chen Yan's infantry.
It's a pity that these soldiers still thought that they could successfully conquer Chen Yan, and they didn't know that danger was ahead......
Chen Yan closed his eyes and stood in front of the alley at the south entrance, he listened to the sound of the debate in his ears, knowing that these soldiers were about to arrive, although Chen Yan was already a battle-experienced general at this time, but it was inevitable that he would be a little nervous, and when these people came closer, Chen Yan roared violently and shouted loudly: "Kill the enemy!" ”
This is the same as this, like a thunderbolt in mid-air, the soldiers got Chen Yan's generals, one by one bravely took the lead, Chen Yan is a dignified Sima at this time, there is rarely a chance to take the lead, now this opportunity is precious, the soldiers want to make meritorious contributions in front of Chen Yan!
You must know that Wang Dan, the vanguard general who is now in the limelight, was promoted by Chen Yan from the ranks, if anyone can make great contributions, if he can't keep it, he will become the next Wang Dan!
Cheng Yu's soldiers thought that it was Chen Yan's archers who were coming at them, but who knew that they only heard a burst of shouts, and suddenly countless mighty and majestic sword and axe hands roared and rushed forward.
These soldiers were originally cavalry, and they didn't look at these infantry at all, but unfortunately they dismounted at this time, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced at once, not to mention that they were not the opponents of these wolf-like sword and axe hands, and even ordinary infantry were probably difficult to fight.
Chen Yan wielded the halberd in his hand, and he was even more brave to take the lead, although there were more than 1,000 people photographed by Cheng Yu, but the entrance to the alley was really narrow, even if there were more of these people, they could only go up one by one, and Chen Yan's knife and axe hand was like a meat grinder, no matter who stepped forward, they were stabbed one by one and chopped into pieces.
Chen Yan saw it in his eyes, and his morale was even greater, they steadily occupied the position at the mouth of the alley, and after a fight, they gradually reached dawn before they knew it!
Cheng Yu saw it really from the outside, but he couldn't break in, the street battle was indeed the most difficult battle in the siege war, although Cheng Yu couldn't take advantage of it for a while, but he also knew that Chen Yan's stunts couldn't last a day.
But Cheng Yu thought about it, this Chen Yan's army was still outside the city, the south gate had been smashed by Chen Yan's catapult, and he couldn't resist Chen Yan's army at all, if he spent too much time with him here, if Chen Yan's army entered the city in a while, wouldn't he be finished?
Thinking of this, Cheng Yu's face was covered with cold sweat, and he couldn't help but look at the south gate in the distance, and suddenly faintly heard the sound of horses' hooves.
"Could it be my hallucination?"
The more Cheng Yu thought about it, the more scared he became, he only felt that the sound of horses' hooves was very real......
"It's up to me to scare myself, there's no reason for Chen Thief's reinforcements to come so quickly......"
Thinking of this, Cheng Yu began to doubt his hearing, Chen Yan was able to scare the main general of the Cao army like this, it was enough to see his arrogance.
"Cheng Gong, do you hear the sound of horses' hooves?"
When Cheng Yu hesitated, a general next to him hurriedly said.
Cheng Yu knew that there was really the sound of horses' hooves, not because of his own auditory hallucinations caused by excessive panic, at this time the sky was bright, the snow melted, if Chen Yan's army was killed for a while, I am afraid that Cheng Yu's troops would be difficult to resist, thinking of this, Cheng Yu gritted his teeth violently, looked at the East Third Battalion that was still fighting in the streets, and shouted loudly: "Withdraw the army!" Let's withdraw! ”
The third battalion in the east was disgraced by Chen Yan's five hundred swords and axes at this time, and he had already given birth to the idea of retreating in the face of difficulties, and when he heard Cheng Yu's order, one by one it was like encountering the emperor's amnesty, and without saying a word, he ran away.
Chen Yan was still fighting bloodily in the alley at this time, and when he heard that the infantry of the third battalion in the east outside were all retreating at once, he was overjoyed, and knew that he was afraid that his reinforcements were coming.
Chen Yan took advantage of the victory to pursue, brandished a halberd in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming!" ”
When the knife and axe men heard the news, they were even more inspired, the night was really full of twists and turns, first almost beheaded Xiahou Yuan, and then encountered Cheng Yu's rescue, and then was trapped in a small alley, and fortunately escaped death, I am afraid that any battle is far from the joy of today.
Chen Yan looked at the retreating Dongsan Battalion, and was worried for a while that this was just Cheng Yu's trick to lure the enemy, so he didn't dare to continue the pursuit, he led his brothers to still guard the mouth of the alley, and didn't dare to act rashly.
The winter sun is warm and shining on everyone's bodies, after this street battle, Chen Yan's five hundred sword and axe hands have three hundred left, if Cheng Yu continues to attack for two hours, I am afraid that Chen Yan will no longer be able to hold on.
Chen Yan thought about it carefully, and was really a little afraid, but in the midst of the fear, he suddenly heard the rumbling sound of horses' hooves again, this time the sound of horses' hooves was very familiar to Chen Yan, he and his comrades-in-arms had a good heart, and knew that the person who came was his own person.
Sure enough, after a while, I saw a general arrive at the entrance of the alley, he turned over and dismounted, his long hair trembled, bowed and saluted: "Guan Yunchang is late to save the car, and I hope that Da Sima will atone for his sins." ”
