Chapter 419: Broken Wrist

I don't know how long it took, it seemed to be only a short moment, but it seemed to be as long as half a century, and the dense rush finally stopped. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiahoudun's body was stuck with three criss-crossing sharp arrows, but fortunately it did not hurt the vital point, and blood flowed out along his wounds, from his body to the ground.

Ugong Terulie stretched out his hand and pressed Xiahoudun's shoulder, with a trace of bitterness on his face, and whispered to Xiahoudun: "Go down to the city and bandage your wounds, Lone has lost his talent, and he must not lose you again." ”

Stretching out his hand to break the arrow shaft on his body, Xiahou Dan's majestic voice sounded: "Your lord, you don't need to bandage, and you immediately organize the soldiers to expand the defensive area." After that, Xiahoudun shouted at the few remaining Ugong soldiers at the head of the city: "Continue to arm! Quick! We must block the next round of shooting!" Under a series of attacks such as red-clothed ballistas, thunderbolts, and the scattered flowers of the Heavenly Maiden, plus the rushing fire of the Yan army, most of the Ugong troops on the head of the city were killed and wounded, and now there are only more than 3,000 people who can still be deployed according to Xiahoudun's command. After commanding the Ugong army at the head of the city to continue to operate, Xiahoudun shouted to the city: "Continue to climb the city! Quick!" The Ugong army, who had already been waiting under the city, was a little dazed by this round of offensive, although they did not have any damage because they were hiding under the city, but the various methods of the Yan army, they all saw it clearly, and the horror in their hearts far exceeded any previous moment, so they seemed a little sluggish, and it was not until Xiahoudun shouted that they reacted. He ran up to the city.

Seeing that the city was crowded with people, and a large number of Unomiya troops had boarded the city wall, the corners of Yuan Qi's mouth took a cold arc, raised his right hand and slashed down, shouting: "Full fire!"

After getting the order of Yuan Qi, the Wyvern Heavy Cavalry and the Hundred Battles Tiangui were the first to act, two elite cavalry with different styles quickly interspersed on the battlefield, and there was a position swap, the Wyvern Heavy Cavalry ran from the west to the east, and the Hundred Battles Tiangui ran from the east to the west. While completing the swap of positions in the run, the two elite cavalry pulled the bowstring again and carried out a second round of shooting, and more than 50,000 sharp arrows were thrown into the air, overwhelmingly falling towards the head of Wei City.

Following the two elite cavalry, the crossbow gunners commanded by the veteran Huang Yong once again loaded the red-clothed crossbow and the Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers, and thousands of strong crossbows and three hundred large Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers flew up to the city of Wei City with more than 50,000 sharp arrows of the two elite cavalry, and once again came to an indiscriminate fierce attack on the Ugong army. Fire, explosions, shrapnel, crossbows, arrows. Flooding all parts of the city of Weicheng, bloodshed and death became the main theme among the soldiers of the Ugong army at the head of the city.

Unomiya Terulie, who had already retreated to a safe area, watched his subordinates be knocked down in pieces like leeks. Needless to say, the frustration in his heart is too terrifying, the combat power under Yuan Qi's command is too terrifying, at this moment, Ugong Terulie has a momentary loss of mind, which is a kind of loss with too much difference in strength.

The slightly narrow passage can't rush up too many people at one time, and the limited number of personnel, under the onslaught of the Yan army, is simply a drop in the bucket, and there is not much difference from the groups that come to die.

After withstanding the two rounds of fierce attacks of the Yan army, the number of people killed in the Ugong army has reached 20,000 people, although most of the defensive weapons on the head of the city have been properly arranged, but Ugong Terulie himself knows that these ordinary defenses can only block bows and arrows at most, but they are absolutely unable to block the red-clothed crossbow and the heavenly maiden scattered flowers outside the city.

Soon, the third wave of the offensive came, this time not only the elite cavalry rushed, a large number of crossbowmen also participated, in the gap between the red-clothed ballista and the thunderbolt, with a team of five people, open the bow and arrow towards the head of Wei City to scatter, for a time, countless arrows covered every inch of the city, all exposed to the bunker and wet cowhide and other defensive fortifications of the Ugong army, no matter how lucky, there is no possibility of continuing to live.

The third wave of fierce attacks once again took away the lives of tens of thousands of Yugong soldiers, although the deployment of the Yugong army has been basically completed, but the archers of the Yan army have also increased in, and under the offset of the two, the Yan army still maintains the terrible efficiency of taking away nearly ten thousand Yugong troops in each offensive.

"The king, we can't go on like this, the casualties of our army are too great, the morale has been discharged, Wei City, can no longer be defended, please order the temporary withdrawal of the army, find another strong city, and then make plans." Sima Yi's voice sounded behind Unomiya Terulie.

Ugong Zhaolie turned his head, his eyes pierced Sima Yi's eyes, and said in a low voice: "Zhongda, with your words, Lone can cure you of the crime of confusing the army's heart." ”

Sima Yi straightened his chest, his face was not afraid, and he said firmly: "Sima Yi is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, if he can exchange the lives of Yi alone for the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of our Great Wei, Yi would rather be killed! ”

Xiahoudun, who was not far away, shouted sharply: "Sima Yi! Do you still dare to say that you are not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? If our army retreats, where will the majesty of the king remain? Where will the prestige of my Great Wei remain?"

Sima Yi shook his head and said: "Prestige is maintained by people, if our army's generals and soldiers are all exhausted, what is the use of prestige? Is it the importance of face for a while, or the lives of the soldiers are more important, General Yuan Rang must also know very well. Sima Yi's words are clearly enlightening Xiahoudun, in fact, he is saying to Yugong Zhaolie, he is telling Yugong Zhaolie euphemistically, King Wei's face is actually very insignificant compared with the lives of hundreds of thousands of Yugong soldiers, as long as the lives of the soldiers are preserved and the combat effectiveness is preserved, then there will be a chance to make a comeback in the future, but if the soldiers die here in vain, how can there be anything about majesty and not majesty?

Ugong Terulie groaned and said: "Zhongda's move can be described as abandoning the car to protect the commander, but if our army retreats to Wei County this time, how can you ensure that the city where our army is located can withstand the enemy's strong attack?"

Sima Yi thought about it and said: "Yangping Pass, sixty miles away, is a fortified city, which belongs to Yanzhou, and is the first barrier in the north of Yanzhou, which is enough for our army to defend the city. What's more, although the weapons of the Yan army are sharp, but Yi does not believe that such a powerful weapon can be easily created, when Xu blocked the army, he has never used such a powerful weapon, it can be seen that this batch of sharp weapons was brought back from the Yizhou battlefield by Yuan Qi, after the Yizhou battlefield and today's consumption, the stock must not be much, as long as our army does a good job of fortifications in Yangping Pass, it is not difficult to resist the offensive of the Yan army!"

As if in order to completely convince Ugong Zhaolie, Sima Yi threw out another bombshell: "King, if the Yan army gets Wei County, it will inevitably use two to three days to rectify, and our army can take advantage of this period to divert the water of the Yellow River and give Yuan Qi a water attack, we can't get Wei County, and what he Yuan Qi gets in the end can only be a dead city!"

Ugong Zhaolie showed a look of shock on his face, and asked in disbelief: "You mean, break the water of the Yellow River and pour it to the north? In that case, if Yuan Qi's handling is a little careless, I am afraid that many counties and counties in Jizhou will suffer from flooding, and even Yanzhou will be affected, and at that time, the lives of the two states will be ruined, and you and I will become sinners in the world!"

Sima Yi said fiercely: "Great King, those who achieve great things are not informal! Yangping Pass is quite high, there is no need to be afraid of waterlogging, our army went to Yangping Pass to hide, relying on the city's grain storage, enough to hold out for a month. Besides, the excavation of the Yellow River this time, the main flow is still in the hinterland of Jizhou, and the places in Yanzhou will not be affected much, and the king will guide in time afterwards, and distribute some money and food to the people affected by the disaster, so not only will it not reduce the prestige of the king, but will make the people more grateful to Dade. As for how Yuan Qi will clean up this mess, that is his business, and our army can also take advantage of Yuan Qi's time to deal with the flooding of the Yellow River, regroup, and prepare for the next decisive battle. ”

During the period of conversation between Ugong Zhaolie and Sima Yi, the Yan army had also reloaded the crossbow and the Heavenly Maiden Sanhua, and launched the fourth fierce attack on the city of Wei City, and in a miserable cry, nearly 10,000 Ugong soldiers lost their lives, at this moment, the city was full of corpses of Ugong soldiers, broken arms and thighs can be seen everywhere, and the blood flowing out of the body gathered together, condensed into a flowing stream, with the slightest flame brought out by the explosion of the Heavenly Maiden Sanhua, it is simply a living purgatory on earth.

The fourth fierce attack of the Yan army finally made Ugong Zhaolie accept Sima Yi's suggestion, he called Xiahoudun and Yuan Ye to his side, and commanded in a low voice: "Yuan Rang quickly reorganize the troops and horses, retreat with Gu later, take away as much food as possible in the city, and don't leave a single rice to Yuan Qi! Ziyang, you will stay and break the queen, and plant many banners at the head of the city, confuse the Yan army, consume their firearms and crossbows as much as possible, and then choose the opportunity to retreat by yourself." Zhongda, you personally take a team of soldiers to dig ditches and dig water, and give Yuan Qi a big gift!"
