Three Kingdoms Eschatology

It turned out that Tai Shici saw that the situation was critical, so he had no choice but to take the risk.He came out from the back of the circle with only a dozen or so riders, made a half circle and charged towards Liang Jun's flank.

Right in front of Tai Shici was a giant ape warrior who was charging bravely, and a large number of Liang army infantry followed it.Seeing more than a dozen enemy cavalry charging towards them, those soldiers of the Liang army turned pale with fright, moved their steps unconsciously, and scattered around.Only the giant ape warrior turned his long saber to meet Tai Shici without changing his face.

Seeing the light of the saber coming, Tai Shici suddenly fell backwards on the saddle, the blade of the long knife narrowly passed over the tip of Tai Shici's nose, making Tai Shici break out in a cold sweat.But when Tai Shici stood up, the horse had rushed to a place less than three battles away from the giant ape warrior.Tai Shici thumped the spear with his hand, and then stabbed fiercely at the giant ape soldier.With a pop, the spear pierced through the body of the giant ape soldier in an instant.Under the action of the huge reaction force, Taishi Ci's tiger's mouth also went numb.It is impossible to take the gun back, so I can only take it off and walk away.

The huge corpse of the giant ape warrior fell to the ground, and everyone around could feel the ground tremble slightly.The dozen or so cavalry behind Tai Shici also passed by on both sides, pushing all the Liang soldiers around the giant ape warrior to the ground.

But in the process, two of their horses were cut off by the broadsword of the Viking soldiers, and the general Wu Jun who fell off the horse was immediately chopped into meat paste by random knives.

Although Tai Shici's small group of cavalry could run rampant among the Liang army crowd, such a small number of people could only weaken the Liang army's attack, and it was almost impossible to defeat the Liang army.They rushed for a while, and there were still seven or eight riders left in the dozen or so riders, and everyone was covered in blood, and all their lances were dropped from their hands.

A general beside Tai Shici suddenly exclaimed: "Look, there is another boat coming on the river." Tai Shici turned his head to look, and sure enough there were sail shadows on the water.At a glance, those ships were known to be Liang Jun's Viking ships.A desperate expression appeared on Tai Shici's face, and he knew in his heart that his life would be lost here today.

The archers on the Viking ships had already started to shoot at Wu Jun's circle formation. When these ships approached, something even more terrifying happened.One after another, fireballs were thrown towards the shore. It was nothing to fall into the water, but when they fell to the ground, with the sound of the clay pot breaking, flames several feet high would rise.

At the beginning, the fireballs were not accurate enough to land, but the more they landed, the more accurate they were, and almost all of them landed in Wu Jun's circle.Wu Jun's entire formation didn't last long before it began to fall apart. Many Wu soldiers who had turned into burning men ran toward the river screaming.

"General, we can't hold on any longer, let the brothers withdraw!" A general of Tai Shici's personal soldier said anxiously. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the flash of a knife in front of him, and his head had been crushed. The long knife of a giant ape warrior cut down.

Another Wu Qi had swung his knife and slashed at the giant ape warrior. With a clang sound, the blade cut a deep and shiny knife mark on the giant ape warrior's shoulder armor, but it didn't hurt the giant ape warrior's velvet hair. .When his horse passed by the giant ape warrior, the latter was unable to cut him with a long knife, and it was too late to remove the hatchet from his waist.

At this time, a rapidly spinning short halberd flew from the air, and with a whirring sound, it slammed into the head of this Wu cavalry horse.The war horse fell down without even neighing.General Wu Jun on the saddle flew out immediately, and immediately after landing, he was stabbed in the chest by a beam of spear shield soldiers.

This short halberd was exactly what Dian Wei threw. Dian Wei saw the corpses of two giant apes on the ground, his eyes were red and he said: "Whoever killed your ape grandfather, you will pay him back with your life!"

Tai Shici was furious, and shouted loudly to the soldiers of the Wu army who had already begun to retreat: "Retreat! Follow me and retreat to the territory of Jiaozhi!" He knew that no one could really run back to Jiaozhi Dragon City after this retreat. How much will there be.After speaking, he turned his horse and galloped southeast with the only four or five people around him.

The soldiers of the Wu army ran away in groups.It's just that they have been marching for a long time, and their physical strength is simply not comparable to Liang Bing who came here by boat along the river, and it is almost impossible to run past the latter.

Dian Wei rode his horse in hot pursuit, followed by several Liang soldiers.He didn't care about the fleeing Wu soldiers nearby, he just stared at Tai Shici and pursued him alone.The rest of Liang Jun would kill as long as he caught up with Wu Bing.In this way, Wu's rout troops fled indiscriminately in front, and the pursuers did not form a formation and carried out straggler pursuit.

On the narrow road beside the servant water, there were running crowds in front and behind, mixed with a few galloping warriors.Tai Shici and the others fought fiercely for a long time, and the mounts under their crotches were already exhausted.Seeing that Dianwei was getting closer, Tai Shici gritted his teeth, holding the blood-stained bar, ready to fight again.At this time, a strange thing happened, Dian Wei suddenly stopped chasing, not only Dian Wei, but also those Liang soldiers stopped one after another.

Tai Shici raised his eyes and looked around, and suddenly found that along the winding road along the water, there was an army coming from afar.Looking at the uniform, it turned out to be Wu Jun's ocher uniform.Tai Shici was so excited that he almost cried.He whipped his horse and sped away towards his friendly army.

A few quarters of an hour later, the opponent caught Tai Shici's broken soldiers.Tai Shici raised his eyes and found that the Wu general leading the troops was none other than Wu Wang Sun Ce.He never thought that Sun Ce would come to the front line of this barren land in person. He quickly jumped off his horse and ran to Sun Ce's mount, kowtowed and said with tears: "This time, the King's attack on Liang, he lost his troops and lost his generals, and he returned in a big defeat. Please, my lord, It's my fault."

Sun Ce waved his hands and said, "Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, and it is not necessarily a crime to lose. It is inconvenient for us to talk about this. We should quickly gather your defeated soldiers and retreat to the territory of Jiaozhi alone, and then make a decision."

Dian Wei didn't dare to fight head-on because he saw that the Wu army had many reinforcements and he didn't know the details.When Taishi Ci Sun Ce gathered up the rout, he also gathered up the troops and withdrew upstream to Pushui.

After Tai Shici collected the defeated soldiers, he checked and found that there were only less than [-] soldiers and horses left. Compared with the nearly [-] troops when he set out, it can be said that the entire army was wiped out.When he followed Sun Ce on the road, he asked, "Your Majesty, why did you come to the barren land of Cochin Yunnan?"

Sun Ce replied: "Although Jiaozhi Yunnan is a remote frontier county, it is very important to the future trend of the world. Guben wanted to sit in Panyu and serve as Ruguan Town, but he was still worried, so he took a boat to Jiaozhi Bianlong City. At that time, I heard that you had been defeated at the city of Nongdong in Yunnan and retreated to Manchao. Manchao is an important place for our army to gather and distribute food and grass. The Liang army will definitely concentrate its forces to attack. I am going to lead the army to Manchao to join you and then fight the Liang army. , I didn’t expect you to be defeated halfway.”

Chapter 508 Xinggu County Wanwen City

In the lush forest, there is an overgrown strip of weeds. Obviously, the official road that few people have traveled in recent years extends to the south.All of a sudden, birds and sparrows appeared everywhere, and then these cavaliers galloped across the road, and then the northern side of the official road was surrounded by flags, and a large number of people and horses meandered along the road.

The leading general riding the white horse is a man with a white face, big ears, piercing eyes, and an expressionless face. He is the Linjiang King Liu Bei.At this time, he was leading the army of the Linjiang Kingdom gathered in Lingling to march towards Yulin in the south.

Liu Bei's main generals in this expedition were Zhang Fei, Wei Yan, and Huang Zhong, but he left his second brother Guan Yu in Jiangling to sit in North Jingzhou.After all, Northern Jingzhou is where his true roots lie.

At this time, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were in the front, and Wei Yan and Huang Zhong were in the rear.As he walked, Wei Yan seemed to be talking to himself, and also seemed to be asking Huang Zhong: "Your Majesty, take us to Xinggu to defend against the enemy. But Xinggu County is a remote border county, and the Liang army's invasion of Xinggu's troops There are not many, so why bring so many troops? In addition, if you really want to retreat the enemies of Xinggu County, you only need to mobilize part of the troops stationed in the south of Zangke County to go south, and you can threaten the enemy's rear and make the enemy retreat without fighting. Why do you need to transfer Zang Ke's defenders to Lingling, assemble them and then go south to Yulin Lingfang County, and then go to block the incoming Liang army? Puzzling, really puzzling."

The wrinkles on Huang Zhong's forehead piled up together, and he grinned and said, "The king naturally has his plans. You and I are not military advisers, so don't worry about the king's general plan."

……

Wanwen County, the seat of Xinggu County, is located in a valley surrounded by mountains, and the river that flows next to it is Yushui.At this moment, the open space in the valley outside Wanwen County was full of tents of Liang Jun Xu Rong's department.There are many bamboo rafts on the Yushui River to transport grain and grass materials for Liang Jun.Although Xinggu County is still in the mountains, the terrain is much gentler than that of Yunnan County, so the rivers here can also navigate shallow-draft boats like bamboo rafts.

At this time, Xiang Lang, the prefect of Linjiang Kingdom in Xinggu County, squatted behind the wall and secretly looked at Liang Jun under the city.The absolute number of the opponent seems to be small, about 3000 people, but it is much more than the defenders in Wanwen City.Moreover, just from the armor and weapons, one can tell that this is a division of tigers and wolves.An enemy soldier launched an attack. It is hard to say that Wanwen City can last for a few days.

It's not that Xiang Lang has never thought of using the terrain of the mountains and forests in Xinggu County to snipe Liang Jun.However, some elite infantry in the Liang army seemed to be very suitable for fighting in the mountains, and they repeatedly discovered and disintegrated the ambushes of the Linjiang army in the mountains and forests in advance.

These pawns can climb trees like spirit monkeys, cross mountains and ridges, shoot arrows without fail, and they are generally equipped with mountain dogs.In addition, it is said that these pawns can survive in the wilderness and forest for a long time without any supplies.In fact, the so-called Liang Jun elite infantry that Xiang Lang learned about was Liang Jun's mountain scouts.

The horn sounded suddenly, Xiang Lang's body shook, and he said in shock, Liang Jun is about to attack!Sure enough, the horn sounded for a moment.Xiang Lang heard a loud bang, and then he felt the bluestone slab tremble under his feet. He thought it was Liang Jun's giant ballista bombarding the wall.

But he was wrong, this is not a ballista, but a counterweight trebuchet that Liang Jun rarely uses.The reason why Liang Jun seldom used this device was that when they attacked the city, they often used ballistas and bomber carvings to cover the head of the city with explosive bombs, cover the pawns' ladders to climb the city, and then captured the upper and lower towers of the city, opened the city gate, and cavalry outside the city. Influx of waves of siege tactics.

But now, whether it is Yunnan County or Xinggu County, or most of the entire Southwest, except for the main road connecting the Maritime Silk Road with the Jinsha River waterway as the core.The rest are rugged and narrow roads through dense forests and high mountains, which are not suitable for large-scale transportation of supplies.

In this geographical environment, with the limited supplies of Xu Rong's army and the civilian men recruited at zero time, it would be good to be able to transport the rations of the entire army to the front line. How could it be possible to ensure a continuous supply of explosive bombs.

So Xu Rong finally decided to use a counterweight catapult to break into the city.Although it takes some time to assemble this thing, once it is installed, it can use local materials, and the large stones collected nearby can be cast continuously on the city wall of Wanwen County.

The city walls trembled under the bombardment of boulders or bags of rubble in hemp rope nets.The defenders at the top of the city were even more frightened. They felt that the entire city wall would collapse in the next second.

This tormenting bombardment lasted for less than half an hour. With a loud bang, half of the wall in front of Lang collapsed, and the splashed sand and stone hit his face, which was immediately covered with blood.

Xiang Lang scrambled and ran to another wall.Only then did he discover that what Liang Jun used was not their usual ballista, but a trebuchet.It's just that this trebuchet does not seem to be projected by manpower, but like a ballista, it has some mechanism to store power. After the trigger button is touched, the loaded boulder or stone bag can fly out.

Xiang Lang thought to himself, if the bombardment continues like this, the city wall will collapse in two or three hours. Once the city wall collapses, how can the more than 2000 Linjiang soldiers and [-] civilians in the city be able to stop the tigers and wolves outside the city? division.

Xiang Lang's original plan was to stick to Wanwen City and wait for reinforcements from Linjiang Kingdom in the north.More than a month ago, Xiang Lang sent the news of Liang Jun's entry into Xinggu and the request for reinforcements to Jiangling Kuaima.Calculated by time, the reinforcements should have arrived by now.

Xiang Lang thought again, thinking that if he waited like this, he could only sit and wait for death.Maybe there was no sign of reinforcements outside the city, and the walls of Wanwen City were about to be smashed down by the opponent's giant catapult.

It was necessary to prevent Liang Jun from continuing to bombard the city wall, Xiang Lang thought to himself.However, the weapon with the longest range in Wanwen City can barely reach the Liang army soldiers operating the trebuchet, but it is hard to say how accurate it is.And once the defenders shoot with heavy crossbows, Liang Jun will definitely use oar shields to cover their slingers.Thinking to Lang Silai, only a risky method could prevent and delay Liang Jun's bombardment of the city wall.

Rocks cracked, bricks shattered, and dust filled Wanwen City, the suspension bridge suddenly fell down.It was said that it fell instead of being put down, because the suspension bridge really fell to the ground like a broken rope.At the same time, the city gate suddenly opened wide.

Xiang Lang gathered all the cavalry in the city, a total of more than [-] cavalry, to form a death squad.Led by Xiang Lang's most brave captain, they rushed out of the city suddenly and directly charged at the row of Liang Jun catapults.

But as soon as they crossed the moat, arrows hit them, and it was the longbowmen who were shooting arrows...

Chapter 509 That's All

Xu Rong had a sneer on his face, looking at the Linjiang army rushing out of the city, he was already prepared for this move.With the sound of howling arrows piercing the air, some of the riders rushing out from Wanwen City were directly shot off their horses, and some were thrown off their horses after their horses were injured, and then were knocked down by the horses behind.

So Xin, only fifty of Xu Rong's three hundred longbowmen were deployed here, and the rest of the longbowmen cooperated with the cavalry to seal off the other exits of Wanwen City.Otherwise, one or two rounds of sniping by Liang Jun would wipe out their entire army.

When these war cavalry rushed to the distance of [-] battles from Liang Jun's catapult position, there were only less than a hundred cavalry left.Rows of Liang Jun's spear and shield soldiers had already lined up in front of the catapult, and the large shields formed a long shield wall.However, for cavalry in a cavalry formation, such a shield wall can break through the gap with a single charge without the cooperation of dense bows and arrows or long spears.

The remaining nearly one hundred Linjiang cavalry formations formed a cone and plunged towards Liang Jun's shield wall, but when they were still twenty battles away from the shield wall, they seemed to have encountered a transparent curtain wall, one row after another. Row, layer after layer fall.The scene echoed with the sound of horses whistling and people crying.The spear and shield soldiers shot the remaining nearly a hundred cavalry at close range with their slingshots.

Xiang Lang saw clearly from the top of the city that the cavalry he sent to attack was wiped out without even touching anyone else's hair. The cold sweat on his back was already dripping like earthworms.

Another loud bang of cracking stones and bricks woke him up from his sluggish state, and Liang Jun began to bombard the city wall again.Xiang Lang lamented in his heart, it's over, it's over.Now that all the cavalry in the city were lost, it was impossible for Xiang Lang to abandon the city and escape.He knew in his heart that if he walked out of the city for a few miles, he would become a corpse under the opponent's iron hooves or long bow and heavy arrows.

At this time, a commanding soldier crawled to the top of the city, and shouted loudly behind Xiang Lang: "Prefect Xiang, Prefect Xiang! There is a situation in the east of the city! It seems that there are puppets rushing from the east of the city to the inside of the city. "

Hearing this, Xiang Lang hurriedly lay down on the floor at the top of the wall. He climbed down the top of the wall in embarrassment and then stood up. Under the guidance of the soldier, he hurried to the East City.

At the head of the East City, Xiang Lang saw a group of soldiers and horses approaching Wanwen City. Although he still couldn't tell who they were, the color of their uniforms was the same as that of the Linjiang Army.Xiang Lang was overjoyed and said to himself, "This must be the arrival of reinforcements." But just in case Liang Jun tricked him, Xiang Lang still didn't react immediately.

The Biao army got closer and closer, and had a fierce conflict with Liang Jun who was blocking the city.The preset Liang Junchang's archers kept shooting heavy arrows at them.Those who were hit by the arrow fell off their horses and died.They tried to send a small group of cavalry to surprise the longbowmen, but they were quickly stopped by Liang Jun's cavalry nearby.These Liang army rangers are often ten heavy cavalry and twenty light feather flying cavalry, which can easily defeat or even completely wipe out the opponent.

The person who came was Wei Yan. After Liu Bei arrived at Fangcheng, which was led by Yulin County, he did not turn around and go westward as ordinary people expected, and went to Wanwen to stop Liang Jun.Instead, they did not leave after they were stationed at the leader's side. They just sent Wei Yan to lead a cavalry with less than three thousand paces to make a rescue.

Wei Yan saw that the cavalry team he sent to attack the opponent's longbowmen was defeated by the opponent's rangers again. The archers of Liang Jun, who were hiding in every corner of the surrounding area, continued to shoot arrows, and even injured two of his own soldiers.

This made him yelp in anger.But Wei Yan still didn't lose his mind, knowing that if he continued to fight with Liang Jun now, the consequences would be disastrous.The most urgent thing is to bring these men and horses into the city first.

When Wei Yan was in a hurry, the east gate of Wanwen City was opened wide, and nearly a thousand infantry came out from inside. Half of these infantry were crossbowmen and half were sword soldiers.The knife card is in front, the pawns are in the back, and move forward quickly.The archers of Army Commander Liang who were shooting at Wei Yan immediately turned around and shot their arrows at the Linjiang soldiers in Wanwen City.

The sword soldiers of the Linjiang Army held up the big round shields with tiger heads to protect themselves and the crossbowmen behind them as much as possible. The crossbowmen also bent their bodies as low as possible, and followed the sword soldiers forward.Even so, many people were still hit by arrows in their hands and feet.

When they approached a certain longbowman formation, there was already a beam army ranger rushing towards them.Qingqi Feiyu in the ranger first drew his bow and released arrows, shooting at these Linjiang infantry.Since the Rangers attacked from the side and behind, the shields facing the front of the Linjiang Army Sword Soldiers had no effect.Under the flurry of arrows, seven or eight people fell to the ground immediately, causing the small army that came to support Wei Yan to panic.

Next, the heavy cavalry in Liang Jun's ranger began to charge.The ground that was trampled by the bowl-sized iron hooves of more than a dozen giant Charre warhorses was trembling.The leading general in the Linjiang army shouted to Wei Yangao at the top of his voice: "General, Governor Xinggu asks you to enter the city as soon as possible, and take this opportunity to enter the city as soon as possible!"

Wei Yan looked around, and there were several Liang Army Rangers approaching in his sight.As for out of sight, I don't know how many Liang Jun cavalry are coming after hearing the news.The situation was urgent, and Wei Yan didn't answer.He whipped his horse and rushed towards Wanwen City with his troops.

At the same time, more than a dozen armored cavalry of Liang Jun had rushed into the formation of Linjiang infantry.Like tigers entering a herd of sheep, they dug a bloody alley in the formation in an instant.Horses passing behind are full of corpses of Linjiang soldiers stumbling around.

However, the soldiers and horses brought by Wei Yan had taken this opportunity to sneak into Wanwen City.When Liang Jun's cavalry turned around and joined another cavalry team that had just arrived, they rushed towards these Linjiang Army infantry again.The latter has fled towards the city gate in a panic.Sixty or seventy cavalry and war cavalry accelerated their pursuit.

Linjiang soldiers running around were constantly stabbed to the ground by riding on the wall.If the two sides confront each other, this lance can only be used once in each battle.But because it is a pursuit, there will be no situation where the spear can't get rid of after the spear penetrates the human body.

These Linjiang soldiers were stabbed down one by one by Liang Jun cavalry with spears, extending from a distance to the city of Wanwen.But Xiang Lang thinks it is worth paying such a huge price.Because after all, Wei Yan was successfully welcomed into the city.

As soon as he entered the city, Xiang Lang bowed to Wei Yan and said, "Thank you, General Wei, for your rescue."

Wei Yan smiled and said: "This is a matter of a certain duty, why should I say thank you."

Xiang Lang asked again: "Since the general's front army has entered the city, when will the rear army arrive. When my Linjiang army rushes to the city, I will take the strong men in the city and attack from inside and outside, and kill Feng thief completely. Just relieve the hatred in your heart."

Wei Yan's face darkened and he said: "The former army? These military brigades are all supporting the soldiers and horses of Xinggu County. At least there will be no reinforcements for the time being."

After hearing this, Xiang Lang's expression changed even more than Wei Yan's, and he even let out an "ah" in surprise.

Chapter 510

Xiang Lang rubbed his hands together and said, "General Wen Yuan. To be honest, with the soldiers and horses you brought and the soldiers and horses in Wanwen City, we can't defend at all." While he was speaking, Liang Jun The loud noise of the counterweight trebuchet bombarding the city wall was still heard from time to time.

Wei Yan's face also turned gloomy and he said: "I also know that this task is difficult. But this is the king's decision. The army we sent to the collar has other more important things to do. The king said, after finishing that big task, Only then can we return to help Xinggu County."

Xiang Lang spread his hands together and said, "In the southern border of our Linjiang Kingdom, there is only an enemy army like Xinggu. Apart from resisting Xinggu's Feng thief army, what else can we do..." He suddenly stopped talking, his expression on his face A surprised expression appeared: "Could it be...Could it be that the king is going to attack Wu?"

Wei Yan chuckled and said, "You said that, the king didn't say that to someone, and someone didn't say that either." After saying this, Wei Yan's face darkened again, making Xiang Lang think that he said something wrong The words offended Wei Yan.

In fact, Wei Yan's face was not for Xiang Lang to see.Like Xiang Lang, he had already guessed the reason why Liu Bei stationed his brigade in Lingfang City.At this moment, he suddenly thought that Liu Bei didn't tell him this because he didn't trust him, so his expression suddenly changed.

At this point in the conversation between the two, a soldier came running from the outside like flying, and reported to the two of them, "Two generals, it's not good. Under the constant bombardment of the opponent's catapult, the walls of Wanwen City appeared. Cracks. If this continues, at most a few hours, the city wall will collapse."

After all, Wei Yan was born as a general, so he has much more experience in dealing with this than Xiang Lang.He cupped his hands to Xiang Lang and said, "Don't worry, the prefect. It will be dark in two hours. The opponent's trebuchets will stop throwing stones at night. At that time, we will gather the craftsmen in the city, and the peasants will rush to repair it. Unless we strengthen the city wall, we will It is also necessary to set up horse-repelling fences and antlers in all lanes in the city, just in case the city wall is blown down and the opponent's cavalry rushes in."

Without further ado, Xiang Lang took out his own prefect's seal and said, "General Wei is a veteran in the battlefield. When Wanwen City is in danger, you, the general, should have full authority to dispatch it. The prefect's seal of Xinggu County will be handed over to you, general."

Wei Yan shied away a little bit in a pleasant manner, then took over Yinshou unceremoniously, and formally dispatched all the soldiers and horses in the city.

Two hours later, as night fell, Liang Jun's catapults really stopped bombarding.The craftsmen and civilians recruited by Xiang Lang Weiyan took the opportunity to strengthen the city wall. The construction site behind the city wall was brightly lit, and some civilians were ordered by the soldiers to set up roadblocks to resist horses.

At this time, no one noticed that a spark outside the city suddenly rose into the air.That was Liang Jun's hot air balloon airship.After Xu Rong found that the city seemed to be very brightly lit, he guessed that the Linjiang army would spend the night speeding up the repair of the city wall, so he took off in an airship to check it out.Sure enough, behind the top of the wall, there are bright lights under the corner, and there are many tripods, and the peasants gather in a group like ants and are busy.Some folks seem to have arranged things like rejecting horses on the street.A sneer appeared on the corner of Xu Rong's mouth.

Even though the soldiers outside Wanwen City were pressing down on the border, the city wall was already on the verge of being destroyed, and the soldiers of the Linjiang Army and civilian husbands in the city were working hard.But Wei Yan seemed to be full of confidence. After a day of marching, he washed up and fell asleep.Xiang Lang was different, not to mention sleeping now, even in the middle of the night, he might not be able to fall asleep.

The sound of the boulder hitting the city wall was loud again, and even Wei Yan, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened.Under Xu Rong's order and encouragement, Liang Jun outside the city turned on the lights to fight at night, and once again started the counterweight trebuchet to bombard the city wall of Wanwen City.for

He straightened up like a carp, and shouted: "What noise!"

"General Qi, it should be that the bandit army outside the city bombarded the city wall with trebuchets again." Said the soldier waiting outside the house.

"Oh, it must be dawn, but it seems that someone hasn't slept for long." Wei Yan got up and said while opening the window.When he found that it was still pitch black outside, the soldier said again: "General Qi. Not long after you fell asleep, the bandit army started bombarding again."

Wei Yan was startled at this moment, and said angrily, "Mother, Liang Jun won't let anyone sleep well." At this time, Xiang Lang ran in in a panic and said, "General Wen Chang, the bandit army is here again!" The bombardment of the city wall has begun. According to calculations, the city wall will last until dawn at most, what should we do now?"

Wei Yan gritted his teeth and said, "What else can we do? We are trapped in the city, we can only cover ourselves with water and earth, and soldiers come to block us. Now that the city is broken, we have no choice but to prepare to fight the bandits in the city."

This night, no one in Wanwen City fell asleep, even if they were big-hearted, they couldn't bear the noise.Wei Yan also repeatedly adjusted the deployment of troops, focusing on the point where the city wall might collapse, deploying defenses layer by layer, and resetting ambushes.Wei Yan didn't take a break until he thought everything was safe.

It was dawn, the darkest hour of the day.With a loud bang, the wall of Wanwen City finally collapsed, but not completely collapsed, leaving a thin layer of the inner wall standing there.The ruins filled most of the moat in an instant.The city walls are filled with dust inside and outside, and even if the lights are brightly lit, nothing can be seen.

The outside of the city suddenly fell silent, and the people in the city could only hear the sound of Sasha's footsteps and the sound of hitting wooden boards. It was Liang Bing who was using wooden boards to level the road.Then the Linjiang army in the city heard another loud bang, and a huge black object suddenly passed through the wall, and the last thin wall of the city wall that had not yet collapsed also collapsed.Several Linjiang Army soldiers in the front were hit by gravel on their faces, and blood flowed from their faces immediately.

Wei Yan thought that Liang Jun was about to rush in, so he raised his waist knife and shouted loudly: "Get ready!".The pikemen in the front row stretched out a forest of spears from behind the horses, and the crossbowmen in the rear aimed their arrows at the front.

Unexpectedly, there was no sound of someone rushing in from outside the city.Instead, dozens of fireballs flew in from the dust-filled gap, accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air.The sound was not made by the fireball, but by the concentrated shooting of Liang Jun's longbowmen and Qingqi Feiyu.

The landing points of those fireballs were not accurate, but in the end, more than a dozen of the dozens of explosive bombs landed in Wei Yan's army formation, shooting up four or five feet into the sky.The splashed naphtha immediately turned the surrounding crowd into burning men, but many of the Linjiang soldiers who survived the fire were shot through their bodies by arrows.

Crying and running, the Linjiang army that was blocking the gap in front of them fell to the ground in groups of casualties, and the rest were already panicked into a mess.Wei Yan's sleeve was also ignited by the fire, and he quickly cut it off with a waist knife, so he didn't continue to be embarrassed.

At this time, there was a shout like a mountain roar and a tsunami from the gap in the collapsed city wall.

Chapter 511

Soldiers of the Liang Army rushed into Wanwen City from the gap with shouts, all of them were infantry.Xu Rong had observed clearly from the air, and knew that the city was full of roadblocks against horses, and the cavalry had no advantage, so he only let the cavalry block the exit of Wanwen City.

Liang Jun's infantry rushed to the front of the rejection horse, and stabbed the chaotic defenders behind the rejection horse with dense spears.In just a few breaths, the enemy soldiers near the Juma roadblock were cleared up.Then they quickly moved the horse away, and continued to push forward with shields and spears.

At this time, Wei Yan had already yelled and told the soldiers to retreat to the second line of defense.This second line of defense is also densely packed with pikemen, and crossbowmen stand behind the horses, but in front of this line of defense, there are still a large group of Linjiang soldiers hidden in the side alleys on both sides of the street. Attack from the flank.

At this time, Wei Yan was also watching Liang Jun's movements nervously, if he followed his deduction.Liang Jun should use spear and shield soldiers to advance forward, and the crossbowmen and even the fireball-throwing troops in the rear will follow up, otherwise they will not be able to break through his defense line.Then when Liang Jun and these long-range units enter the city, the ambushes on both sides will give Liang Jun a good look.

But this time Wei Yan was wrong.A large number of Liang Jun's guns and shields lined up in a strict formation and advanced along the street.Even the two wings have large shields standing sideways, defending against enemy soldiers rushing from the streets on both sides at any time.However, the Linjiang soldiers in those alleys did not move, they were waiting for Wei Yan's signal.And Wei Yan will wait until Liang Jun's crossbowmen and crossbowmen enter the city before sending out a signal.

After a while, Liang Jun's most forward shield wall was less than twenty battles away from Wei Yan's second line of defense.The crossbowmen and arrows of the Linjiang Army shot at Liang Jun like rain.But the latter used layers of shields to form a turtle shell formation.Arrows crackled and shot at the shield, making Liang Junjun look like a hedgehog.

At this time, Wei Yan hadn't seen Liang Jun's crossbowmen and crossbowmen coming in, so he was surprised.He wondered how the opponent could break through his defenses without these two arms.Suddenly, Wei Yan remembered one thing - Liang Guo's spear and shield soldiers themselves have long-range attack capabilities, whether it is a javelin or the iron shot with some unknown method, his soldiers will be overwhelmed.

His fine hairs exploded immediately.But it was too late, Liang Jun's tortoise shell suddenly fell apart, and then flying spears and javelins slammed down on the Linjiang soldiers behind the roadblock against the horse like torrential rain.Row after row, round after round.The dense spearmen and crossbowmen of the Linjiang Army immediately fell down layer by layer amidst wailing.

At the same time, Wei Yan also ordered the Linjiang Army in the side alleys on both sides to attack. He could not wait any longer.Arrows burst into the dark sky with fireworks.The alleys on both sides were suddenly brightly lit, and the Linjiang soldiers who were lying in it rushed out shouting, and their shouts gathered together.But these cries soon turned into screams and wailing.The spear and shield soldiers on both sides had already pulled off the rubber bands on the shields, and shot lead bullets as small as soybeans from the mouth of the vulture.These projectiles were easily shot into the bodies of the thinly armored Linjiang Army soldiers.

Whether it was the soldiers directly in front or the Linjiang Army soldiers on both sides, they were once again in a mess and on the verge of collapse.Xu Rong raised his saber into the air and shouted: "Kill".The soldiers of the Liang Army rushed around along the streets and alleys with shields and guns.Rows of spears repeatedly protruded from behind the shield wall and stabbed forward, and those who approached would turn into cold corpses.

Wei Yan was not injured by the javelin when several personal soldiers protected each other with their bodies, and now he retreated helplessly to the third line of defense.This line of defense was also easily breached by Liang Jun.
