Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 87 Night Attack on Changsha

Bo Cai untied the long knife at his waist and handed it out.

I borrowed this sword from you temporarily. You must try your best to urge the army to attack the city. If the city is broken, I will definitely give you a reward, and the position of commander-in-chief is fine.

Pei Yuanshao was a rough man who didn't know the art of war, and he was overjoyed to hear Bocai's words.

Bo Shuai really uses his troops like a god, please rest assured, I will go right away.

After all, Pei Yuanshao hurried away, led a team of three hundred supervisors, and issued Bocai's order to Dongying. In the east camp, one by one yellow scarf thieves came out from the gate of the camp, with ladders on their shoulders. They didn't participate in the battle during the day, but now they are recharging their energy and recharging their batteries, each with a strong fighting spirit.

Pei Yuanshao held Bocai's long knife tightly in his hand, and a yellow scarf was tied around the handle of the knife, fluttering in the evening wind.

Bo Shuai has an order! Whoever breaks through the city first will be rewarded. Let's move forward bravely and kill the fucking dog officers.

Thousands of yellow-turban thieves filed out of Dongying and rushed towards the top of the city aggressively. Archers among the thousand-odd yellow-turban thieves lined up under the top of the city. The archers of the official army had to hide their bodies in the battlements to avoid arrows. The Yellow Turban's pawns took the opportunity to shout and move forward. Seven or eight people carried a ladder on their shoulders and rushed under the city wall. The Yellow Turban behind suddenly exerted force and raised the ladder.

The yellow turban thieves in front were clustered together, firmly grasped the bottom of the ladder, and put the ladder on the top of the city with all their strength. on the stack.

The official archers on the top of the city began to fight back, while the Yellow Turban archers were poorly trained, far inferior to the well-trained official archers. Especially among the five schools of the Northern Army brought by Huangfusong this time, there are hundreds of sharpshooters from the Shesheng Battalion. The so-called shooting sound means that you don't need to see with your eyes, you can know where the enemy is just by listening with your ears, which shows the essence of archery.

It is obviously an exaggeration to be able to shoot the enemy just by listening to the sound. After all, the most important thing in archery is vision. Shoot the lice in the wings. But even so, we can see the essence of Sheshengying's archery skills.

An old soldier of the Shesheng Battalion turned his head to the side, and shot an arrow from the top of the city to avoid it. Then he unhurriedly drew his bow and set his arrow, aiming at the direction where the arrow came from just now, and sent the arrow in the wind with a whoosh. out.

There was only a scream of ah in the darkness, apparently for him to shoot someone, so he couldn't help but smile slightly, drew his bow and arrow, and continued to shoot people.

In the battle of defending the city, the archers defending the city are far superior to the archers attacking the city. Firstly, they are condescending, and secondly, they are resisted by the city wall. Why did Cao Cao fight so hard at the Battle of Guandu? Isn't it just that Yuan Shao built a bunch of mobile arrow towers, and groups of archers stood on the towers, condescendingly shooting arrows into Cao Jun's camp, so that Cao Jun had to walk in the camp with his shields on his head all the time.

The yellow turban thief stood at the bottom of the city, not to mention that there was nothing to block it, and it took more effort to shoot arrows upwards. Where was the elite opponent of the Shesheng Battalion, half of the more than a thousand archers died in an instant, but they managed to cover the pawns and set up the ladder in the city. above the head.

After paying a lot of casualties, the yellow turban bandit pawns bit their steel knives and climbed the ladder. On the other hand, the officers and soldiers on the top of the city responded calmly, moved out the rolling logs and stones, and smashed the yellow scarf thieves who were attacking the city with blood.

When Sun Duo saw the Yellow Turbans attacking the city at night, he was puzzled, turned his head and said, General Lang, how do you know that the bandits are going to attack the city at night?

Huangfu Song swung his sword to oversee the battle, and took the time to explain: The bandit Shuai Bo has a hundred thousand soldiers, he trapped this general in Changsha, he is eager to complete his meritorious service, he must gather a large army, and attack the city day and night.

Let's have a tough fight now.

Sun Duo said angrily: There are also many officers and soldiers outside the city. I only hate these people for being greedy for life and fearing death. If we take the opportunity to attack the camp of the Yellow Turban bandits, we will open the city gate and fight out with our troops. Will the bandits be defeated like a mountain?

Huangfu Song shook his head: Bo bandits are quite proficient in the art of war. Watching him attack the city at night this time, I'm afraid he only mobilized a force of troops. If the official army attacks, I'm afraid they will be defended by dividing troops.

Sun Duo sighed, Is there nothing we can do?

Huangfu smiled but did not speak, his pupils reflected the flames ignited by the yellow scarf thieves under the city, and his heart was full of pride.

A few days ago, he had sent the news of his withdrawal into the Changshe to Luoyang. As one of the main forces of the three-way counter-insurgency army, Huangfusong would be terrified once he was surrounded, and he would never sit idly by.

As long as the imperial court sends troops to help, it will surely be able to urge the peripheral generals, and when the time comes, the internal and external cooperation will be able to smash the bandit army and complete their merits in one battle.

There are countless yellow scarf thieves among Yingyu, if they wiped out a few, the rest would run away and hide in the mountains, Bocai gathered a crowd at the bottom of the city, and they were about to destroy them with one blow. Using himself as a bait to lure the yellow scarf thieves to besiege him is worthy of being the number one general in the court, and he is really brave.

The rolling logs and stones on the top of the city, the gold soup poured down continuously, and the screams of the yellow turban thieves kept coming from all around. Get lost, and was about to run back, but when I looked up, I saw a hideous face illuminated by the flames.

Swish!

The long knife cut through, the head flew up, and the yellow scarf was stained with blood.

Pei Yuanshao decapitated a deserter with a knife, and a few drops of blood splashed on his face, making him even more ferocious.

Those who advance will live if they don't die, and those who retreat will be cut without mercy!

The group of yellow turban thieves who attacked the city saw Pei Yuanshao who was holding a long knife and gnashing his teeth, and the hundreds of supervisors hiding in the darkness behind him, they immediately put out their thoughts of turning around and running, and tried their best to climb up. After all, if they rushed to the top of the city, they might be able to kill and retreat the officers and soldiers. If they retreated, the supervisor team would not be able to spare their own people.

The yellow turban thieves who climbed up from the top of the city were entangled with the officers and soldiers, some were pushed down from the top of the walls, and some won the ground by virtue of their bravery, but the heavy infantry among the officers and soldiers were like fire brigades everywhere on the top of the walls Hacking and killing, so the Yellow Turban Thieves have never been able to gain an advantage on the top of the city.

However, for the armored soldiers behind Sun Duo, the surface of their iron armor was full of marks of knives and axes. If they persisted for a month, these armors would probably be scrapped.

Bocai's Dongying army recharged their energy, but Huangfusong also prepared more than 2,000 reserve troops. They did not fight at the gatehouse during the day, and they pulled them out at night to deal with the Yellow Turban Bandits' attack at night, so the Yellow Turban Bandits did not fight at night. gain an advantage in.

But Bocai didn't expect to take down Changshe City in one night, otherwise Huangfusong, the so-called famous general of the imperial court, would be too unskilled. So he was not discouraged, but divided his subordinates into two, and attacked Changshe City day and night, shouting and killing endlessly.
