0501, City Wall Trap

Because Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, he was defeated by Zhuge Liang in the opposite way and many times using suspicious tactics.

Lao Hui Ma Shouying, like Sai Cao Cao and Luo Rucai, was also suspicious and scheming by nature, but he was confused by Xiong Chu's suspicious tactics.

"Xianggong, if Lao Huihui chooses a direction to take a risk, and desperately rushes through the two lines of fire on the southeast side, instead of turning around and going north and falling into the trap again, your plan will fail, what will be the outcome at that time?"

Although sitting behind Xiong Chu has always been light and light, Yan Erniang has always been worried.

Xiong Chu said in a deep voice: "If it is really like what you said, our gamble will fail this time, then we can only be willing to gamble and lose, and there is only death." ”

Mandeli was also a little puzzled: "I said Childe, what do you want to do by keeping the city gate open?"

"I did this for three purposes. Xiong Chu finally smiled: "The city gate is always open, and the people in the city will think that their army is fighting outside, and the shape is not bad, at least it has blocked the enemy, so they don't close the city gate." This way not to panic is the only way to stabilize the inside. ”

The second purpose is to make Zhang Xianzhong have great doubts, and at the same time attract his attention here, and there is no time to engage in intrigues. This is what the military advisor Wan Lian usually calls the 'chicken rib plan', the food is tasteless, and it is a pity to abandon it, so he will inevitably hesitate. ”

"The third purpose, in case all the things I have done fails, the city gates will be open so that I can send you two out. I have full confidence that I will be able to protect the two of you before you die in battle, so that you will have the opportunity to return to Yongzhou to report the news. ”

Yan Erniang Wen Yan said the words "I know", and she didn't continue to talk nonsense.

But Mandeli is just the opposite: "Childe, I said that even if I die, I must die before you." You want me to rush out, and this calculation is wrong. If I tried my best, I could still get you out. ”

Xiong Chu did not argue, but changed his statement: "Why did you send you out, just ask Erniang to understand." ”

"Second sister, is that so?" Mandeli turned her head to look at Yan Erniang.

"Xianggong is right, it is true. Yan Erniang nodded: "If it really comes to that point, it must be Xianggong who stays desperately to the death, and you and I are desperately trying to escape, there is no second way." ”

"Why do you want to?" Mandelli still didn't understand, but her face was already very nervous.

Yan Erniang's face was a little sad: "Because Xianggong has completely exposed his identity here, if the Zhongdu City is not defended, and he does not die here, the whole world will think that he is Zhang Xianzhong's internal response." ”

"Xiang Gong is clearly not the enemy's internal response, but he can never understand, which will cause a stain on Xiang Gong for a lifetime. If no one believes what Xiang Gong says, it will be more strict than losing a central capital. ”

"I escaped with you, not simply to run for my life, but to save lives, to save the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. You and I are little women who don't pay attention, and if you run away, you will run away, and you will not let others worry too much. ”

"In this way, with my experience as a killer and your strong combat power, we will be able to return to Yongzhou as quickly as possible, so that Miao Sanguan and Lan'er can quickly respond. ”

"If Xianggong is really gone, you will have the highest martial arts among us. When the time comes, you will have to inform Wan Lian, Huang Yanying and Xia Yun in Yunnan that they should respond, and this is none other than you. ”

Mandeli nodded: "It turns out that Childe is ready to die here a long time ago, and I am still in the dark." Now I also understand that if it really gets out of control, I will definitely not disappoint Childe. ”

Xiong Chu smiled: "Dai Li, you are not from the Central Plains, and you have to learn many things from scratch." Our situation is very dangerous, so we must have the determination to die and survive. The only money I gambled with was when I was dead. ”

"A dead man is not afraid of anything, so he can burst out to his maximum potential, and this is also the basis for the 1,000 cavalry to successfully ambush near more than 100,000 enemies, because they all think they are dead. ”

At this moment, a female soldier on the tower of the city gate whispered: "Childe, you are right, the enemy has set up two infantry phalanxes on both sides of the city gate, each of which is 2,000 people. In front of the infantry phalanx, there were more than a dozen ladders, and it looked like they were about to attack the city. ”

For fear of alarming the enemies outside the city, the bear prince could not speak, but stretched out his right thumb in front of his chest according to the pre-agreed code, and then pointed his index and middle fingers to the city gate.

The meaning is clear: leave both sides of the gate alone, keep an eye on the enemy in front of the gate, and be ready to respond at any time.

Yan Erniang said softly: "Fortunately, the enemy has no artillery, otherwise we really don't have a curse this time." ”

Xiong Chu shook his head: "It's not that they don't have artillery, but they don't have their own territory, so there is no gunpowder supply." Even if they grabbed the artillery of the officers and soldiers, they had no gunpowder supply and were very bulky, so they didn't want this kind of waste. ”

"It's because they don't have a long-term plan and have never thought about how to run a piece of land that they are called rogues. Kou thief is actually the meaning of robber. ”

"They don't have the experience to govern a place without running a whole site. It's not right to shout at the court, it's not right, it's not right. If you really want to let them take care of it, it will definitely be worse than the imperial court, so I won't mess with them. ”

Woo woo - kill -

Just as the bear prince explained to the two daughters, with a burst of horns blowing, the earth-shattering shouting and killing sound came, and the siege battle outside the city finally began.

Xiong Chu slapped his hands on the ground, and the whole person had already flown up and arrived outside the city gate hole.

A mile north of the city gate, more than 300 people rushed desperately with ladders. Because there were no obstacles such as moats, and there were no defensive soldiers on the walls to shoot arrows, they rushed to the bottom of the castle without blinking an eye.

The success in the north greatly encouraged the attacking troops southeast of the city gate, and they directly dispatched 2,000 men to swarm up in four columns, and more than a dozen bamboo ladders were erected up the city wall, and the besieging enemy began to climb up with steel knives in their mouths.

Siege warfare is the most brutal way of fighting, and climbing the city directly is also the battle process with the most severe casualties.

Because of this, the first batch of people who climbed the city in each siege battle were all composed of death squads, and as long as they climbed to the top of the city, they would achieve a great achievement.

Today, the first batch of people who climbed the city did not encounter a counterattack in the city during the whole process, and the people who climbed the city were happy at the same time, of course, they would also have doubts.

But the course of the war is like this, even if the people at the front have doubts in their hearts, it is useless, because the follow-up troops have already swarmed in, and those who push the front can only advance, not retreat.

This is a helpless process, but also a passive process. It is in this context that countless heroes of breaking cities have been produced in history.

According to the general city structure, as long as you climb to the city wall, you can develop along the city wall to the left and right wings, and seize the hidden soldiers and command posts of the defending troops one by one.

However, Fengyang City, the central capital, happened to be a monster, and because he was worried about suppressing the dragon vein, he only built a wall two feet and four feet thick.

That is, the top of the city wall is the top of the hill, with a central spire and two slopes. Not to mention that there is no passage to transport troops to divide the troops, and there is no way to stand on the top of the city wall.

Another place where the trough cake is overhead, that is, from the outside of the city, the height of the city wall is only three feet and six feet. A person with a certain level of skill may fall and be injured if he jumps, but there is no danger to his life.

Only those who climb to the top of the city wall will see that a deep ditch has been dug inside, one zhang wide and one zhang deep.

Now the first group of enemies who climbed the city have reached the top of the city wall, and before they can react, the people behind continue to climb up according to the original siege method, and as a result, all the enemies who came up first have been squeezed down from the city wall.

The city wall is three feet and six feet, and the deep ditch is four feet and six feet, such a high drop at least requires the top masters of the rivers and lakes to dare to jump down.

Plopping and plopping, like dumplings, all the people who climbed up first were squeezed down by those who climbed up later, and then all fell into the deep ditch.

Most of the first people who fell down fell to their deaths on the spot, and then they climbed up in waves, and were squeezed off the wall by those who climbed up later.

As time passed, the meat pads in the deep ditch of course became thicker and thicker, and as a result, they all fell half to death, and then were stoned to death by the people behind them.

What happened inside, no one outside the city knew at all, the only thing I saw was that the climbing of the city was very smooth.

Although I heard screams inside the city wall, it was normal to have screams during siege battles, otherwise it would not be normal, so it did not arouse the vigilance of the enemy.

The people behind are still desperately trying to climb up, and the tragic story can only be repeated over and over again.

It turned out that in order to climb the bamboo ladder conveniently and quickly, the enemy bit the steel knife in his mouth, and when he found out that something was wrong, he was pushed down the city wall by the people behind before he had time to remind the back.

Digging a temporary ditch behind the city wall was also a decision made by Xiong Chu after personally inspecting the city wall, mainly because he was worried that tens of thousands of enemies would flock to the city and then discover the secrets of the city wall.

If tens of thousands of people really climbed the city together, as long as the first two or three thousand people fell to their deaths, a very thick meat pad could be made, and the people behind could enter the city alive.

The one-foot deep ditch was actually not very large, and more than a thousand enemies fell in and quickly filled it.

Hook, this is the "matching" of the bear store to defend the city.

According to the position where the enemy climbed the city, more than 100 guards soon rushed over and hooked out all the enemies who had fallen, regardless of whether they were alive or dead.

Another hundred axemen were waiting on the side, and all of them were beheaded on the spot, whether the enemy was dead or not.

The enemy's head is the best combat feat, so those guard swords and axes chop up the enemy's head, which is called an unsophisticated one, it can be called a knife and a head.

Although Xiong Chu looked at it and twitched in his heart, this is your life and death in the war. Either you kill the enemy, or the enemy kills you.

No matter how merciful a person is, he will not stick out his head and give it to the enemy to be cut off because he is afraid of killing too many people, right?

The crazy battle of climbing the city, in the blink of an eye, was a quarter of an hour, and the first batch of two phalanxes prepared by Zhang Xianzhong, a total of 4,000 people, were all killed.

The dozens of enemies who came up in the end, because no one continued to come up behind them, finally managed to gain a foothold, and then discovered the truth of the incident.

It turned out that there was a huge trap inside, so they removed the steel knife from their mouths and prepared to report the real battle situation to the outside.

It's a pity that there is no chance, the archers in the city who have been preparing for a long time are now shooting at targets four or five feet away, which is naturally a hundred shots.

As a result, the last dozens of enemies were all shot into hedgehogs and fell off the city wall, and they couldn't talk anymore, and they still didn't know anything outside.
