Chapter 776: Shocking Tongguan
No matter how reluctant the soldiers on both sides are to cut their swords at the enemy's body, they still have to plunge their swords into the enemy's chest, otherwise the enemy's spears will take them into the sky. Shouting, blood, corpses, will always be the main theme of the battlefield, countless soldiers sacrifice their lives and forget to die to fight and even don't know weishenme, Luo Cheng took the cavalry under his command to overturn the cavalry of the infully prepared bloodline army, but on the second day, the enemy picked up the head of the enemy general and drove to the city of Tongguan, the terrain of Tongguan is dangerous, but the bloodline army is not lacking soldiers, the bloody battle between the two sides broke out without even any prelude, the soldiers on the head of the city continued to shoot the bows and arrows in their hands at the enemy, and also continued to use the spears and knives in their hands to knock over a soldier who desperately climbed the city to the ground, war, eternal only bloodshed.
The sun came again, and the moon scattered on the land with a cunning silver light, and with the sound of the gong, the soldiers of both sides who had been fighting for a day finally collected their troops and returned to the city one after another. The soldiers at the head of the city also seemed to have their whole body exhausted, and they fell to the ground in an instant. Qin Qiong walked on the head of the city of Tongguan covered in blood, his mood was very heavy, the enemy's attack was too fierce, and he almost reached the top of the city several times. Qin Qiong looked at the soldiers who fell to the ground, leaning on the head of the city and looking at the endless camp in the distance, and his mood became even heavier. The operations of the Northern Corps have been completely disrupted, and now there are fierce battles everywhere, and the entire empire seems to have no place for peace.
"Qin Shuai, this group of dogs is really desperate. Now we all know what war is all about. These people still want to be so desperate?" Luo Cheng lifted the five-hook god flying silver spear in his hand and looked coldly at the camp in the distance. He asked very depressedly. Liu Fan had already given his subordinates a preventive shot, and now all the generals already knew who they were going to fight against, and what made Luo Cheng very puzzled was that the people of the bloodline corps should also know what the theme of the war was, but he never thought that these people were still so desperate, and they climbed to the top of the city several times after three days of fighting, and the attack did not stop from sunrise to sunset.
"Now that you already know about it, do you want to ask me?" Qin Qiong turned his face to look at Luo Chengdao: "Our main responsibility now is to fight this war well, Tongguan is a major stake, and it is the strategic support point of our entire northern front." Once Tongguan falls, then the entire northern defense line will collapse, and Tongguan must be held no matter what. ”
"I just received a military intelligence notice from Li Shuai, there is going to be a big operation in the south recently, and the support forces that were originally transferred to the north have now been transferred to the south, and we have no reinforcements in the north for a short time. The three days of non-stop siege have made our soldiers very tired, and the enemy has climbed the city several times in a row, which shows the enemy's determination to attack this time. Wei Chigong also looked at the soldiers who came up from the rear with a solemn face, constantly carrying the corpses of his comrades, and his mood was very heavy: "Qin Shuai, in the past few days, we have only killed more than 30,000 people, and there are countless wounded. ”
"Not bad. Qin Shuai's passive beating like this is not a battle that our Shenwu Army should fight, and the last general asked for orders to give the last general 3,000 cavalry. The last general will go to the enemy camp tonight and walk around. "As the saying goes, the art master is bold, Luo Cheng and Yuwen Chengdu are not inferior to Pei Yuanqing, but the two of them are far more stable than Pei Yuanqing, a guy who only has developed limbs and an unusually simple mind, of course, Li Yuanba is simpler than Pei Yuanqing, but Li Yuanba rarely clamours to take the initiative in the absence of generals.
Qin Qiong smiled and shook his head, decisively rejected Pei Yuanqing's proposal, now if he wants to sneak attack, it is no different from sending him to death. The first time the enemy's light soldiers came to knock on the pass was caught off guard by Luo Cheng and others, the enemy's generals were also very brave, and adjusted the deployment of troops in time, and the cavalry that was about to collapse was rescued from under the iron hooves of Luo Cheng and others, although the loss was not small, but it was better than the annihilation of the whole army, this general in Qin Qiong's opinion was not to die, but the other party just picked his head to knock on the pass, which had to remind Qin Qiong to be cautious.
"Qin Shuai, as long as we occupy Tongguan, although the enemy has climbed the city several times, it will not pose any threat to us at all. We held the Tongguan that is, we held the northern line, if we don't take the Tongguan, they are categorically useless to cross us and attack our hinterland directly, our army can completely wait for work, take advantage of the natural danger of Tongguan to defend Tongguan, and wait until the enemy can't move, don't want to fight us, the army out of the city, defeat the army outside the city with thunder, and get rid of a strong enemy for us to recapture the north. Shan Xiongxin decisively stood with Qin Qiong and other generals, Qin Qiong nodded at Shan Xiongxin with satisfaction, and at that moment, he mentioned the willingness not to go out of the city to attack, and the generals suddenly understood.
The night was very silent, approaching the moon in the middle of the moon and hiding in the clouds without a god, countless black shadows in the darkness silently marched towards Tongguan, the huge army movement was so silent, even the birds hiding in the woods to rest were not startled. The soldiers who had been fighting fiercely for a day at the head of Tongguan had already laid down early, maybe this was a sleep that they could control independently, these soldiers were particularly cherished, the war had reached this extent, both sides were ready for a decisive battle in Zuihou, this time after all, one side was going to fall completely.
"Someone stop, password!" The captain guarding the gate of Tongguan saw a patrol of thousands of people suddenly opening up under the city with the help of the faint light of the fire, and immediately became vigilant. Although it was time for the changing of the guard, this captain was still extremely cautious, because their commander Qin Qiong had warned them countless times that they could not stop the enemy from within in a strong castle.
"Break the army. The officer who led the team commanded his subordinates to stop, and waved the torch in his hand at the captain at the head of the city, and the officer at the head of the city also breathed a big sigh of relief when he saw the troops under the city, but fortunately they were all their own people, it seems that they have been tortured by the war recently, and they are too nervous, and the wind is loud.
"Kill the thief. The captain at the head of the city beckoned his troops to walk down the city wall with a slogan, looked at the pair of officers who led the team with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "I said Lao Chen, there is still a stick of incense before the change of guard, it is really strange why did you come so early today? ”
"Of course, you can't be as lazy as before in wartime, so you should hurry back and rest with your people. The officer named Lao Chen looked at the officer who walked down from the city with an unhappy face and said viciously: "Made, the fight has been really ruthless in the past few days, Lao Tzu has lost hundreds of brothers, and these dogs are really deadly in the battle." ”
"Who's to say it's not? These dogs don't know what kind of ecstasy soup they've been fed with, and they really don't take their lives seriously. The officer thought of the battle in the past two days, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, but he quickly returned to normal, and said with a smile: "Lao Chen, I will hand you over in the middle of the night, don't get up tomorrow morning and you will lose Tongguan to me." ”
"I said you are a crow's mouth, what is not good to say, but I said that Tongguan is lost, if Tongguan loses you, will I still have my life to live? ”
The officer smiled and led his men down the walls, and the soldiers were so tired from the continuous battle that they made fun of each other to prove that they were still alive. The officer walked down the city, and soon the new pair of soldiers were defended by the main gate of Tongguan.
"No, although Lao Chen is a left-hander, his knife has always been inserted on the left hand, and the person's knife just now was inserted on the right hand, no, there is a ghost. The captain who had almost arrived at the barracks seemed to suddenly understand something, and in an instant the whole person became cold, and the captain pulled his own soldiers and shouted to him: "You go to General Luo Cheng immediately now and say that something may happen tonight, you come with me immediately." ”
The gates of the black hole were opened silently, and the soldiers who had already been hidden in the darkness by the moonlight poured in like a tide from outside the city, everything was so silent, no one knew, no one noticed. The soldiers guarding the city did not know when they had all fallen to the ground, and the soldiers who came up did not rush into the pass like a tide, but took control of the city gate first.
"How can there be a large-scale army movement here, there must be ghosts, damn it, I should have found out that Lao Chen had ghosts a long time ago. With the help of the faint light of the fire at the head of the city, the captain saw countless people surging under the dark night, and the captain knew in an instant that something was wrong. The Shenwu army was already extremely tired from the fierce fighting for days, and it was impossible to mobilize a large-scale army at night, needless to say that this must be the enemy taking advantage of the night to kill in the city.
"Brothers, behind me is our homeland, in front of us is our enemy, I am dead at home, brothers and I will kill me! Shenwu Army, fight to the end!" The captain shouted at his subordinates with the war knife in his hand, and took the lead in rushing towards the enemy with his brothers. (To be continued......)
