~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
call out--
A arrow passed by his ear and shot the throat of the entourage beside him. The young entourage held the arrow shaft with both hands, his eyes were dissipated, he vomited blood from his mouth, and slowly fell down...≦
Wang Xiu, wearing thick armor, held a long sword in his hand, was not concerned about the blood splashing on his face, and reached out to hold a hand of his entourage, his voice roared: "Go away, my mother, I will take care of it."
The entourage grinned, as if he wanted to laugh, and fell down.
In just one sentence, another rain of arrows shot from the city, and a group of guards fell down the city. Three of them penetrated the entrance hall, two arrows were nailed to the guardrail, and one arrow was quickly raised to block the guardrail for the entourage.
Wang Xiu was the commander of the Ximen and the commander who appointed Kong Rong to command Duchang's counterattack. With his level, he could imagine that it was dangerous.
Wang Xiu had a sword in his hand, and blood was stained on the sword, but it was not the enemy's blood, but his own people - the battle was so fierce and he was timid. He wanted to be a deserter, almost as many people died in battle. Wang Xiu's duty was to supervise the battle. Before the Yuan army's offensive had not stopped, before he was still standing in this place, whoever dared to take a step back would have to ask the sharp blade in his hand first. His name as the "strong leader" of Wang Shuzhi was not for nothing. He had killed so many powerful men in the North Sea, let alone how many battlefield deserters were?
On the city and under the city, the sky is boiling and turning, and the white blades are connected, and the falling ones are like rain; the corpses are buried, the mud and dust are dark and brown, and the fire is everywhere. The smoke and dust cover the sun.
Wang Xiu had experienced many offensive and defensive battles, in Zhuxu, Xiami, Juxian, and Duchang. There has never been a single time. Now it is so difficult that he almost rushed to the top of the city by the enemy several times.
The army is different from the bandits. Also, the general who supervised the battle in Yuan Jun also gave people a very different feeling: fierce, fierce, aggressive, and even more ruthless in killing the defeated soldiers than Wang Xiu. There were more than twenty poles in front of the general's flag, and three or four blood-ticked heads hung at the top of each pole...
Under one hideous head, Lu Kuang stood with a knife, full of murderous aura. All of his thousand soldiers and horses had to go into battle, regardless of the battle soldiers, but only the new soldiers. The new soldiers took the lead first and set up ladders to attack the city. More than 200 crossbowmen were divided into two groups, and they formed a geese-shaped formation outside fifty steps, constantly firing arrows at the head of the city. Suppressed the Northern Navy. One group of force was exhausted, and then another, and rotated like this until all the crossbowmen were exhausted.
Most of the crossbowmen of the Yuan army were old soldiers. They fought with the Youzhou army for many years and were experienced. They were not fixed on one point to shoot against the city. The city was covered by female walls and had the advantage of being condescending. They were very disadvantageous when shooting against it. The crossbowmen of the Yuan army had infantry formations behind them, and the soldiers in front of them were all equipped with large shields. After each of the crossbowmen fired several arrows, they saw that the North Navy was about to fight back. They immediately hid in the infantry formation and waited for a wave of enemy arrows to emerge and continue to do it.
Lu Kuang had an old soldier under his command, including two hundred crossbowmen, with four hundred soldiers in length. This camp was his trump card. As for the new recruits, he didn't feel sorry for his death. After this battle, those who survived can be regarded as bloody soldiers, and they can be replenished into his old camp.
Yuan Jun has always used this natural elimination method to extract his own elite soldiers. Who made these two prefectures in Hebei and Qing, both of which are large-capital states in the Han Dynasty, and they lack everything, but they are not short of people.
After an hour of fierce battle, the new recruits were killed and injured, and no matter how they were driven, they could no longer climb the city to fight. The guards in the Ximen City Wall section of Duchang were exhausted.
Lu Kuang ordered the entire army to retreat, as if he wanted to return to the camp to eat. When the Northern Navy thought that he had finally repelled the enemy's offensive and leaned against the wall one by one, Lu Kuang gave the order and the rear team turned into the front team. Four hundred sharp soldiers carried more than 20 long ladders with arrow storm support from more than 20 crossbowmen, roared like a tsunami, and launched a general attack on the panicked Northern Navy.
Compared with IQ, Wang Xiu must be above Lu Kuang, but compared with war, Lu Kuang is more than just better than Wang Xiu.
Four hundred sharp soldiers, like running oxen, stirred up sand and dust in the sky, crossed the trenches filled with corpses of the two armies, and slapped the four-zhang (Han zhang, about six meters) long ladder towards the city. Broken mud splashed everywhere, and the sharp hooks at the top of the ladder firmly stuck the edge of the city. The soldiers held swords and carried spears and halberds on their backs, and used their hands and feet to climb quickly.
Wow! A basin of hot oil poured down from the city, and the soldiers who were the first to be attacked made a tragic scream, falling from mid-air, with a bang, and mud and dust stirring. The mound fell from three or four meters, as long as it was not head-down, it was generally not easy to die, but the soldier's face was blistered, first blood red, then pale, and then large pieces of skin fell off, revealing bright red and wriggling tender flesh... Such a serious and large-scale deep third-degree burn, even in today's medical history, belongs to the category of critical illness notification. If placed in the Three Kingdoms, it will be a certainty to die.
Bang! A huge black shadow fell. This time the organic soldier raised the shield high above the top to cover his whole body - but this time it was not hot oil, but rolling wood. A heavy wood of about a hundred pounds was thrown down from the top of the city, smashing the wooden shield, and slapped the three soldiers who were climbing the ladder into the mud together...
He was injured by the city-guarding equipment and basically half his life was lost. Unfortunately, this kind of counterattack only made a few small splashes in the attack wave. Compared to Yuan Jun's rapidity, the North Navy, whose momentum had already been released, responded significantly slower. Many people's eyes were confused and their movements were stiff, and their previous energy was gone.
This is the battlefield trick of Lu Kuang playing - people can often maintain a high-intensity stress state when they are mentally nervous, regardless of offense or defense. But this aura cannot be released, and it will be finished once it is released. Although Lu Kuang cannot explain this physiological phenomenon, it does not prevent him from having this understanding. He first pretended to retreat to the camp, and waited for the Ximen Guard of Duchang to let out a long breath, exhaled the aura, and immediately turned around with the main force to counterattack.
Wang Xiu was hit by this retaliation, which hurts... Fortunately, Wang Xiu also has a reserve team, but the distance is a bit far, and it takes some time to transfer it to the north gate. However, time on the battlefield is an expensive consumable, which consumes weapons, food, money, and life... Even so, Wang Xiu didn't know if he could withstand this round of crazy attacks.
"If Ximen is lost, the whole city will be destroyed. If there is no one to avoid the collapse of the nest, let me, Wang Xiu, die here!" Wang Xiu sighed, pushed his left and right away, and took the sword downstairs. Now command is meaningless, and the only thing he can do is to fight with blood like an ordinary soldier.
Wang Xiu was a scholar, but the scholars of the Qin and Han dynasties had a sword hanging on their waists. They were not decorations, they were all cut and could kill people and commit suicide.
Wang Xiuneng repeatedly entered the mansion of powerful people alone. Facing these powerful dock owners and heroes, they showed their power and used their benefits. This courage is also supported by art. His swordsmanship is very good.
As soon as he ran to the top of the city, a soldier Yuan held a knife in his mouth, supported the edge of the city with both hands, and jumped into it.
Wang Xiu raised the sword with one hand, pressed the sword with the other hand, pressed the sword with the other hand, and pushed forward with force with both arms. The sharp sword tip pierced the cowhide armor and penetrated deeply into his chest.
Yuan's soldiers stared at the sight of shock and stretched out their hands to grab the sword. Wang Xiu pulled it hard, and the blood shot into the sword, turning into an arc of light, cutting off the enemy's throat.
In just half a moment, Wang Xiu had assassinated four enemy soldiers, and there were a few more chopping marks on his heavy armor and spots of blood on his body.
Seeing that even the commander personally went to fight to kill the enemy, the audience was moved. The morale of the North Navy was boosted, and the soldiers' shouts of killing gradually became more powerful and their actions became flexible.
Lu Kuang kept staring at the battle on the top of the city and asked, "When is it?"
As the entourage was sent, the timekeeper came over sweating profusely and reported: "Half an hour has passed since Shen Shichu."
"So, there is still half an hour." Lu Kuang's rough face grimly, and he pushed the knife in his hand to his shoulder, "Okay, half an hour, I will stand at the head of Duchang City to welcome Yuan Envoy."
Lu Kuang is going to fight in person!
In the Three Kingdoms era, it was normal for generals to charge into battle. Even the prefects were on the front line, let alone a cavalry like Lu Kuang.
Lu Kuang only brought twenty entourages, each with armor and shield, swords on his mouth, and axes on his waist. Some even brought several short halberds, looking like they were preparing to kill the city and form a formation to defend.
One with a big waist and a round waist, and a slinging hair, it was obvious that the Hu people's entourage took the lead, and Lu Kuang was the second one.
There was a constant sound of killing above the head, and soldiers who fell like soup cakes (there were no dumplings in the Han Dynasty, only soup cakes) could be seen on both sides from time to time. Some people were pushed down by the fork rods, and the people on the ladder were like grasshoppers strung on the line... Some people could get up and fight again after falling, while some fell forever.
Lu Kuang had already been numb to this scene. He now had only one obsession: kill it! Occupy this city, tie up all the soldiers of the North Sea, and push them down one by one like this!
"Kill!" The Hu entourage raised his shield and pushed away the stones that had been smashed one after another, and finally jumped onto the top of the city. A shield knocked away a guard, but the shield that was smashed by the stone could not bear it and was broken into pieces.
The moment the shield shattered, a sword rushed into the broken wood that was scattered and stabbed the Hu people's entourage's entourage's shoulder.
The Hu man shouted and raised an axe to slash at his opponent, but the opponent was obviously not an ordinary person. There were five or six guards beside him, and the guards were tightly protected. The Hu man's axe was blocked by one guard, and another guard thrust up with a spear, and was clamped by the Hu man's arms.
At this time, the sword light reappeared and smeared the Hu man's throat. The Hu man covered his neck and fell on his back, and blood arrows shot through his fingers.
Lu Kuang's figure finally appeared on the top of the city. He jumped off with one knife and the other with the other. The sword light was used to drill, and a guard was lifted open, his wrist suddenly turned over, and the blade penetrated into the belly of another guard.
The sword light flashed again, but Lu Kuang was not comparable to the Hu entourage. He had quick eyes and fast hands, blocked it with a leather shield, and injured a guard with a backhand. Before he could turn the blade, he hit the sword with the hilt. The opponent groaned, and the sword fell to the ground, and his arms retreated quickly.
Seeing that this man was wearing heavy armor, he must be a military general of higher level, so he was not willing to let him go. He shouted and rushed away several guards with his sword and shield, raising his sword and slashing hard at the opponent.
The man was in a panic and picked up something to resist.
Bang! The thing exploded, but it was half of the Hu man's broken shield just now.
When Lu Kuang was about to make another stab, a sound of snarling suddenly came from behind him!
Lu Kuang looked back in surprise and found that it was from the Central Army.
Mingzhi means retreating! Why? He has already attacked the city, why should he retreat?
Chapter completed!
