Chapter 105 Successful Defense
In the barracks, Gao Shun had already led the soldiers who were trapped in the camp to station here, and he himself brought Hu Zhen's head to meet Lu Bu.

"General, Hu Zhen wanted to flee to the outside of Chang'an City and join the enemy army. He happened to pass by the pass I was guarding, and I successfully captured him. This is his head. General, please take a look."

Gao Shun threw the bag of Hu Zhen's head directly to Lu Bu. Lu Bu took the bag and opened it. As expected, it was indeed Hu Zhen's head. Then he put the bag away and handed it to Gao Shun.

"Gao Shun, you did a good job. After the war is over, come to receive the reward, and Hu Zhen's head will be kept."

"Yes, General Xie."

"Gao Shun, how is the situation over there?"

"General, among the 1000 elite soldiers under my command, except for the 500 people I lead who are in charge of the main road from the enemy camp to Chang'an City, the other 500 people are divided into five groups. Various trails in Chang'an City, but due to the darkness, it may not be possible to grasp all of them."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, there are always people who need to report. What about the casualties?"

"General, our army has a total of 1000 standing troops. Except for a few people who were attacked by enemy soldiers in the dark, the rest have not suffered any losses. As for the enemy army, most of them have not seen who is ahead. They have already been killed, and of course the few enemy soldiers who saw clearly all fled after hearing the news and did not have the courage to come back. So although my troops did not lose a single soldier, they only killed more than 300 enemy soldiers.”

"That's pretty good too. Have you asked the military meritorious officers to record the achievements of these people, and come to receive the reward when the war is over?"

"General, the meritorious service in the army has been fully recorded."

Compared with Lu Bu, Gao Shun is a more inarticulate person, innocent and dignified, he does not drink alcohol, and is not subject to bequests, so he is quite loved by Lu Bu, and even the elite troops formed by Lu Bu were handed over to Gao Shun came to rule, but Gao Shun did not disgrace his mission. The soldiers trapped in the camp only obeyed Gao Shun's orders. They were brave and good at fighting. The first interception mission was completed so perfectly.

Of course, Lu Bu's cavalry troops were not inferior to the camp led by Gao Shun. The [-] elite cavalry under his command smashed the enemy camp at once. What's more, when the guards of the enemy camp discovered the Lv Bu cavalry, it was too late to take effective measures, so the Lv Bu cavalry could be said to be on a rampage along the way. The enemy soldiers were trampled by thousands of horses, causing countless casualties. It was a complete mess.

Poor Hu Zhen's more than [-] soldiers died countless under the stampede of waves of cavalry. The surviving soldiers only wanted to escape, and did not organize effective resistance. After all, even their commander had already died. It's gone, the soldiers at the bottom are like a mass of loose sand, left to Lu Bu's cavalry to ravage to their heart's content.

Within half an hour, all the enemy soldiers in the barracks were dead. Only a few enemy soldiers who took advantage of the darkness and fled in all directions barely managed to save their lives, and the casualty statistics of the officers at all levels under Lu Bu's banner were also very fast. will come out.

After killing all the enemy soldiers in the barracks, Lu Bu asked his soldiers to reorganize here. This barracks is still useful for the time being. After all, the troops he came this time are not only the four thousand cavalry in front, but also the rear. Six thousand infantry, these six thousand infantry will arrive here in less than half an hour, and they will need to be regrouped by then.

Baling is a good place, the terrain is high, suitable for combat, condescending, it is difficult for the opponent to attack, occupying this place can effectively snipe the enemy who turns back, so Lu Bu is going to let [-] soldiers camp here again, and then wait for work , waiting for the arrival of enemy soldiers.

At this moment, the outside of Chang'an City is still fighting back and forth. The first wave of enemy attacks has been completely blocked by the city defenders. The enemy troops in the first wave of battles do not have any advantage. Prepared in advance, so the enemy was seriously damaged.

Zhang Ji's troops, which were already small in number, suffered more serious casualties at the moment. The 2 troops had already lost more than [-] people. His desire to attack had been extremely low. If the leader hadn't ordered a retreat, he would be I'm afraid it wasn't like the previous sieges, the troops were retreated early.

As for Niu Fujun, since they have not been able to capture the city gate, the rest of the soldiers can only choose to attack from the city wall.

Although the troops of Li Jue, Guo Si and others were ferocious, their casualty rate was ridiculously high, especially because of the height of Chang'an City, so almost all those who fell from the ladder to the ground lost their lives, and these lost their lives The soldiers have formed a hill, looking at it makes people feel creepy.

Occasionally, enemy soldiers can climb up the city wall, but it is a pity that the soldiers who climbed up will be attacked by several people at once. It is much easier to climb the wall.

Therefore, it is necessary to consider the problem of soldiers’ supplies. Chang’an City Wall has a large space, so multiple guards can be accommodated in one position. On the top, as for the fallen guards, they need to be taken to the wounded barracks immediately, on the one hand to treat the wounded soldiers, and on the other hand to provide space for the guards behind.

Although these things seem very simple, they are very prone to problems in actual operation. For example, how to ensure that after the front guard falls, the soldiers behind will immediately fill up, even if the time in between is a little longer, it will give Another example is how to carry the wounded down as quickly as possible. In a battle where information is constantly changing, carrying the wounded is not an easy task. You must know that the city wall can be said to be full of people. , Most of the soldiers march forward in a trot form, and it is easy to bump into each other.

And these detailed operations all need to rely on the soldiers' long-term training, and how to train soldiers well requires a good general, and Huangfusong is just such a general.

Huangfusong has led the army to guard the east gate of Chang'an City for dozens of days. During these ten days, he has not rested once, and he has not even left the east gate for ten days. Although these soldiers used to be under Dong Zhuo's subordinates, now under the leadership of Huangfusong and under Huangfusong's rule, these soldiers have a higher sense of identity with Huangfusong.

It can be said that more than ten days of training is for this moment today. The defenders who have been trained for a long time are far from the untrained defenders in terms of mobility and psychological quality. The spears in the hands of the trained defenders can Hit the enemy soldiers ruthlessly, accurately, and quickly, even if it is only for a short while, the chances of the enemy soldiers attacking the city wall are much less.

So this also led to the fact that although the enemy soldiers came aggressively, even with dozens of ladders, they were unable to attack the city wall of Chang'an. In the end, after a round of attacks, Niu Fu could only call the drums to retreat and wait for the next attack. Round attack.

After withdrawing troops, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others all came to Niu Fujun from their own army to discuss the next attack plan.

"Leader, the city wall of Chang'an is difficult to attack. Why don't we go back to the camp and wait for the next attack." Zhang Ji was the first to say that his troops were seriously damaged. The loss of Chang'an City was even more serious.

Zhang Ji didn't know that compared to the guards who had not been well trained when they attacked Chang'an City last time, this time, the guards in the city were obviously well prepared, so they were able to move forward more easily. Deal with enemy soldiers who want to attack the city.

"Leader, I also agree with General Zhang's opinion. The reason why we chose to attack tonight is to take advantage of the opponent's slack, but now it seems that Chang'an City has been defended in advance. The actual effect has not been achieved, so if we continue to attack like this, the gain will only outweigh the gain, so it is better to return to the barracks and discuss it next time." Li Jue said.

Compared with the other three, Li Jue is much more rational. In his opinion, since the city is already prepared, it is impossible to take it down in one fell swoop. If that is the case, why waste time here .

As the leader of the alliance, Niu Fu naturally didn't want to retreat. After all, his army was mainly responsible for attacking the city gate in the early stage. Although the attack on the city gate did not achieve actual results, so he sent other soldiers to attack the city, but Without exception, of all the allied forces here, his army suffered the fewest casualties.

It's just how Niu Fu can compete with the other two, so he is going to wait for Guo Si to express his opinion before making a decision.

"Leader, since we have decided to attack the city, don't hesitate. Although Chang'an City is well-defended, it is not impossible to conquer. Perhaps Chang'an City is now at the end of its battle, holding on to the last breath, not to mention the South Gate. And the friendly army at the North City Gate, if we retreat early, won’t it hurt the friendly army’s heart, and I’m afraid it will be even more difficult to break through Chang’an City.” Guo Si said.

Guo Si is rather reckless, and he is very enthusiastic about attacking Chang'an City. The last time he was discussing about Li Ru in the military account, he almost got involved with Li Jue. Now it's really his turn to attack Chang'an City. Naturally, there will be no Conceded.

After Niu Fu heard Guo Si agreeing to continue the attack, he instantly gained confidence, at least he is not alone now.

"I also agree with what General Guo said, so please, generals, let your soldiers rest for half an hour before proceeding with the second round of attack." Niu Fu said.

"Leader, don't you think about it again?" Zhang Ji said with some confidence.

"General Zhang, this is only the first round of attack, and you are like this, what will happen to you in the next few rounds of attack? Could it be that our group is the same as you before, every attack is a feint, and the result is an attack. After a long time, the defenders in the city were unscathed, and now if you don’t take advantage of the large army gathering here and take down Chang’an City in one fell swoop, if you act like this, it will only make people laugh.” Niu Fu said coldly.

Zhang Ji's previous feint attack did not hide from the other allied forces, so his soldiers were ridiculed by other allied soldiers. On the battlefield, deserters have always been the object of ridicule, and Zhang Ji's feint attack It's no different from a deserter, so not only Niu Fu is not happy to see him, but even Li Jue, Guo Si and others are not happy to see him.

At this moment, Zhang Ji doesn't speak anymore, he is the weakest here, coupled with the previous scandal, it is difficult for his words to be recognized by other allied forces, especially when he proposed to evacuate again and again statement.

Soon, the generals returned to their respective armies, and they unanimously decided to attack again after a quarter of an hour.

At this moment, on the turret of Chang'an City, the door opened again. Since the beginning of the war, this door has been closed. The reason for closing it is to prevent His Majesty from getting out of the turret because he is curious about what is happening outside.

Although Huangfusong has absolute confidence that the enemy cannot enter Chang'an City, the flying arrows and stones in the sky are unreasonable. If His Majesty is injured, he will be guilty of a great crime, so he would rather put His Majesty under house arrest. He cannot let His Majesty go out of the turret because of his guilt.

Before Huangfusong entered the turret, he had already asked several guards at the door, and he was relieved after confirming that His Majesty had not gone out.

Although Huangfusong was an upright person, he did not dare to offend His Majesty, and if His Majesty really wanted to go out of the turret, the few guards he left behind might not be able to stop His Majesty's servants.

"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong in the turret?"

As soon as he entered the turret, Huangfusong immediately asked.

Zhang Ming looked at Huangfu Song's disheveled face, with some blood still on his body.

"General Huangfu, I'm fine."

"Your Majesty, the enemy's first round of attacking Chang'an City has failed, and they are currently preparing for the next move outside the city, so Your Majesty should not go out of the turret for a while. After the opponent completely retreats, I will inform His Majesty immediately."

"General Huangfu, go and do your work first, I'll be here waiting for your news."

"Your Majesty, the minister will leave."

At this moment, Chang'an's defense has not yet reached the point where it can be relaxed, so Huangfusong's command is still needed. However, as a loyal courtier of the Han Dynasty, Huangfusong's first consideration is naturally the safety of His Majesty. This is also after the first round of the enemy's siege. , the main reason why he came to the corner tower.

Now that His Majesty is confirmed to be safe, he needs to continue to command the next battle. Although it is impossible to see what the enemy's next move will be, it is always the right decision to be prepared, so Huangfusong continued to order the officers at all levels to deal with it. matters within the military.

And Huangfusong himself went to the meeting hall to discuss the situation of each army with each school lieutenant.

Jia Xu was on his way to the outside of Chang'an City, and just after he left the barracks for a while, he saw flames everywhere in the barracks. He knew that the imperial army did as he expected and raided the barracks while the army was attacking Chang'an City. After thinking about Hu Zhen's expression and state of speaking, or the performance of soldiers in the army, he knew that the barracks could not be defended completely.

He wanted to tell Niu Fu the news.
