Chapter 126: Night Attack
The battle lasted until dark, and the Japanese broke through to the top of the city several times, and even attacked the inner city on one occasion. But under the call of Lord Liu, even the people took up arms and went into battle, and finally used the street fighting to push out the attacking Japanese invaders again.
In the evening, the Japanese temporarily retreated. At this time, the head of the city had been stained dark red with blood, and there were weapons and armor scattered everywhere. The surviving people were already numb, staring blankly at the scene like Shura's hell in front of them, without sorrow or joy. No one still has a good idea of communication, just dragging his tired body back to the camp silently.
Lord Zhou stood under the city and kept saying to every sergeant who walked by: "Hard work, hard work...... despite the fact that there was still an arrow stuck in his left shoulder, which was still bleeding at the moment.
The officers under his command came to report that in addition to the number of serious wounded, there were less than 200 sergeants in the city who still had combat effectiveness, and the people also suffered great losses, and no less than 500 young and middle-aged men were killed in battle, and countless were wounded.
The old man's eyes flashed with tears, the young men who came to support this time were all brought out by him, and even many of them were veterans, who had a deep affection since their fathers, but now they are buried here, how to explain to their relatives.
Yun was still standing at the head of the city and looking into the distance, his eyes a little empty. In the fierce battle for nearly three hours, he couldn't remember how many enemies he had killed, but the weapons in his hands changed one after another, constantly crumbling on the hard bones of the enemy. And there were more than a dozen wounds on his own body, some of which were still bleeding, and some of which had solidified and stuck to his body with his clothes.
Hailong and Zhang Hong walked over with each other's arms, and the two of them were the main combat force in a day's battle, where there were many enemies, they rushed there. At this time, one of the sea dragon's arms hung limply, apparently broken. Zhang Hong's face was bloodstained, and he didn't know whether it was injured or the blood of the enemy, his clothes were badly damaged, and he didn't know that he was exposed to a large area of skin, and now there were only soldiers on the battlefield, regardless of gender.
Zhang Hong patted Yunyun's shoulder, with a bitter smile on her beautiful face: "Brother Yun, I'm really sorry to involve you." ”
Yun smiled slightly, and his eyes regained his brilliance: "What Sister Hong said, this is what every Huaxia people should do, and it is also my own volition, you don't need to blame yourself." By the way, I saw the figures flickering in the Japanese camp, as if there was a large-scale transfer. On this day, I roughly calculated that they had lost at least more than a thousand people, and now they are sleepy but they have not rested, and I think that there will be abnormal movements in the evening. ”
Well, Hailong also looked at it for a while: "You have a point, we have to remind the boss to prepare early." ”
For dinner, everyone only drank a little gruel, although the day's successive battles had already exhausted their physical strength, and their stomachs were empty at this time, but the bloody scene made them have no appetite. After the meal, everyone just sat silently, and the solemn atmosphere was depressing.
At this time, Lord Zhou came over, asked about everyone's injuries first, and then said with some embarrassment: "The Japanese robbers in this day's battle have obviously lost their patience, and they are afraid that they will change too late, and they have invested all their strength. I've just seen their moves, and it's likely that there will be a night attack tonight. I know you're tired, but now we're short on manpower, and it's ......."
Hehe, Yun smiled: "If the boss has any orders, just say it, now we don't have to be so polite when we are in the same boat." ”
Master Zhou also smiled: "Okay, I won't say more nonsense." According to our analysis, once the Japanese invade at night, they will not be fully mobilized, after all, fighting at night, the difficulty of attacking the city will increase a lot. They should have sent a small force to enter the city at night, create chaos and take the opportunity to open the city gates. Those who come must be strong in martial arts, and it is difficult for ordinary soldiers to fight against them. So I want you to work hard and defend the walls at night. ”
"Good. Everyone agreed without hesitation. Then they all took time to rest and try to recover their strength to cope with the night battle.
As soon as the day passed, Yun Yun and the others went to the city and hid, and most of the people accompanying them were gangs of the two gangs. In terms of personal ability, ordinary sergeants are not on the same level as them. And the old man ordered the archers to lurk on the periphery, ready to support at any time.
Yun Yun sat in a dark corner at this time and closed his eyes and breathed, although his physical strength could not be recovered in a short time, but his internal strength was rapidly replenished after every week. He has put aside the distractions in his heart and entered a state of self-forgetfulness......
The second watch is approaching, and there is movement on the opposite side. Yun suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes had already adapted to the dark environment, and he could see very well through the dim night. At least more than 100 people were dispatched in the enemy camp, all of them were dressed in black, and there was no reflection of weapons, so they were all wrapped. At this time, they all bent their waists, tried to light their steps, and quickly passed through the open area in front of the city, hiding under the wall.
After a stick of incense, it was found that there was no reflection in the city, so there was a birdsong. Then there was a few pops, and a dozen claws buckled against the wall, and then someone began to climb upwards.
The clouds did not move, according to the previous plan, these people were to be released into the city, and then they were all wiped out, not giving them a chance to escape, and effectively eliminating the living force of the Japanese Bandits.
And this group of black-clothed men is obviously also good at hiding and sneak attacking, and those who ascended to the top of the city first immediately divided their men to control important positions, and the others leaned down on the spot and were silent. In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred people climbed the city wall, and the leader waved his hand to make a few gestures, and the group of people divided into two waves and sneaked into the city from both sides.
As soon as they landed, hundreds of torches were lit in an instant, and the area below the city was illuminated as if it were daylight. Then the order was given, and the archers appeared from their hiding positions, and the arrows rained down.
The robbers were blinded, but they didn't expect to encounter an ambush, and in an instant, more than 30 people were hit by arrows and fell to the ground wailing, while others drew their blades to block the arrows.
Seeing that they were under siege, they immediately ordered a retreat and threw a large number of swarthy projectiles. After the popping sound, the smoke fills the air, and the pungent smell spreads.
Yun was still very familiar with this thing, and Kawasaki had used it on him at that time. So he shouted loudly: "Cover your mouth and nose with your clothes, hold your breath as much as possible, and we'll rush down!"
Hailong and Zhang Hong also rushed out of hiding with their men, facing the fleeing widows. So each picked his opponent and fought in one place.
Although they lost 30% of their manpower, they still had an advantage in numbers, but they were caught off guard and a little panicked. Although they were tired, they could barely hold the enemy back with their downward momentum. At this time, the gangs of the two gangs were mixed with the Japanese invaders, and the archers did not dare to release arrows at will for fear of accidentally injuring their own people, while the ordinary sergeants could not reach out at all, so they could only surround them from a distance, and the battle was insoluble for a while.
As soon as Yun came up, he picked the leader of the Japanese who led the team and punched him, and the fist wind brought up half of the man's black scarf, revealing a slightly emaciated face. The man was not slow to react, and he also punched him.
Boom, fists intersected. Yun was shocked and took a step back, and the man also only took two steps back to freeze his body, obviously in terms of skill.
A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the man in black, and he exclaimed, "It's you!"
Yunyi frowned: "You know me?"
The man did not answer, but turned back into the crowd, and ran in another direction through the confusion. Naturally, the clouds couldn't let him escape easily, and chased through the battlefield.
The man in black was also light, and he climbed the city wall in a few jumps, seeing that he was about to escape from the clouds, he jumped two feet away and punched him in the back of the heart. And the man seemed to have been prepared, and a somersault casually shot out a handful of hidden weapons, as many as cow hairs, and the people also fell towards the city like a free fall.
Yun didn't dare to be careless, so he rolled on the spot to dodge, but there was no chance to pursue. Seeing that the man landed a few ups and downs, he rushed towards the Japanese brigade, and at this time, the Japanese also heard the movement, and thousands of people rushed over to prepare to respond.
Yun stomped his feet, no longer hesitated to reflexively re-enter the battlefield, but he had a question in his heart. Although the leading Japanese Kou did not speak much, his words were correct and round, and he was obviously not a Japanese person. Looking at the appearance of the body, he is not very old, his martial arts are so high, and he seems to be very familiar with himself, who is it?
