Chapter 353 Battle of Shaoshan County (4)

The mission of the Yingyang Guards was to harass. Qiu Li immediately decided to divide his troops into multiple groups and disperse towards the Beiyuan Army Camp. Once he got close to the barracks, he would drop bombs inside. If he was discovered by the enemy's hidden sentry along the way, he would directly attack the enemy. Throw a bomb, get rid of the opponent quickly and move on.

Next, explosions would be heard from time to time at Beiyuan Military Camp and the surrounding mountains. All the sergeants in the military camp were very nervous, fearing that Yan Jun's bombs would fall from the sky at the next moment, and they would not be able to rest at all.

Time passed little by little, and in the early morning, the Yingyang Guards began to retreat. It was finally quiet for a while and the sky began to light up again. The Beiyuan sergeants who had not slept all night came out of the camp to gather.

Today's siege must be the main attack of the Leopard Division. Thinking of the terrifying lethality of Yan Jun's secret weapon, Sha Qi suddenly felt frightened.

Seeing the listless appearance of his sergeants, Sha Qi had no confidence at all. Attacking the city in this state was simply a way to die. This battle must not be fought.

"Your Majesty, the soldiers didn't sleep last night, and we only have thirty ladders left. Yan Jun still has secret weapons in his hands. Attacking the city at this time will be very detrimental to our army!"

Bai Xiong raised his head and looked at Sha Qi, "What does General Sha mean by this?"

"Your Majesty, judging from the situation of the siege yesterday, I believe that the Yan army has a lot of secret weapons. The Yan army is condescending. If we continue to attack the city, it will only increase casualties. I would like to ask your Majesty to withdraw the troops first."

"As the saying goes, if you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in any battle. We don't even know what the secret weapon in Yan Jun's hands is, so why not retreat to Qizhou first, wait until we have cracked Yan Jun's secret weapon, and then raise our troops to go south, we will be able to fight without victory. Invincible and invincible."

As soon as Sha Qi finished speaking, Shi Ge immediately said: "General Sha's words are wrong. If Yan Jun had enough secret weapons, they would not have sent people to attack last night. The reason why Yan Jun did this is to hope that we will withdraw."

"Your Majesty, we have consumed a large amount of Yan Jun's secret weapons yesterday. Once we withdraw, Yan Jun's secret weapons will be quickly replenished. In this way, wouldn't the sacrifice of our 30,000 Tiger Division be in vain?"

Ha Zuo also stepped forward and cupped his hands, "Your Majesty, General Shi's words are reasonable. Yan Jun's secret weapons are definitely limited. If you use one, you will lose one. We must hold on at this critical moment."

"Although there will be losses in attacking the city, as long as we can break through Shaoshan City and capture Cheng Wuwei, all the sacrifices will be worth it."

"Furthermore, Your Majesty ordered the three kings to march southward to Qingzhou in three separate routes. If we withdraw our troops before we capture a single city, how will we explain to Your Majesty when we return?"

After listening to the words of the three generals, Bai Xiong thought for a while and then slowly said: "General Ha is right, we still have 70,000 troops. It is too early to withdraw at this time. Anyone who shakes the morale of the army will be dealt with according to the law."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Bai Xiong was very satisfied with the attitude of the three generals and nodded immediately, "However, General Sha's words are not unreasonable. The soldiers have not slept all night and are in poor mental condition and have low morale. It is indeed not suitable to fight again."

"If Yan Jun can attack us at night, so can we. Give me my order and all the sergeants should return to their camps to rest and recharge their batteries. The accuracy of Yan Jun's secret weapons will be greatly reduced after nightfall. When the time comes, we will attack the city with a large army and we will surely achieve miraculous results."

"General Sha, you immediately order people to go up the mountain to cut wood and make ladders to prepare for tonight's siege."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

On the north wall of Shaoshan City, the imperial guards were ready for battle, but the Beiyuan army below the city that was preparing to attack the city suddenly disbanded.

General Meng Ying of the Royal Forest Army asked with a puzzled look on his face: "General, what does Bai Xiong mean? Does he want to withdraw his troops?"

Cheng Wuwei shook his head, "It doesn't look like it. If this general guessed correctly, they are going back to the camp to continue resting. It seems that General Qiu's night attack last night was very effective!"

"General, do you mean that the Beiyuan army will not attack the city again today?" Tong Ding said.

"Of course not. Bai Xiong is following the example of General Qiu in carrying out night attacks. It seems that Bai Xiong is really good at military affairs. In this case, if we drop bombs when we cannot clearly see the enemies under the city, the killing effect will be Greatly reduced."

"It looks like there's going to be a fierce battle tonight! Send my order to the general and leave enough manpower on the city wall. The remaining people will all go back to the barracks to rest."

"Yes, General!"

At the same time, King Wuye of the West Courtyard and King Qilang of the East Courtyard who attacked Leyuan County and Qingshui County chose to attack during the day. After a siege battle, both kings suffered heavy losses. After Mingjin withdrew his troops, the original 50,000 There were less than thirty thousand men left in the army.

Time passed little by little, the sun gradually set in the west and the night began to fall. Just as Karasuno and Qi Lang were discussing with their generals how to counterattack Ying Yangwei's night attack, Bai Xiong led his army to Shaoshan City.

"Soldiers, break through Shaoshan City to avenge your dead brothers. Kill them for me!"

"kill……"

General Sha Qi of the Leopard Division took the lead and began to attack the city with his 20,000 troops.

"Fire arrows!"

"Whoosh whoosh..."

A shower of arrows came, and the Beiyuan sergeants who rushed in front picked up their shields to resist. However, many sergeants fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, and countless others were injured.

When the Yuan army rushed to the bottom of the city, they began to set up ladders, and then climbed up the ladders. Those in front were knocked down and those behind immediately made up for them, rushing forward and continuing.

The Beiyuan army is indeed very powerful, but the Yulin army is even stronger. They can lift large pieces of rolling stones and trees and smash them down, causing injuries and death upon contact.

They lifted up buckets of hot oil, boiling water, and boiling dung and poured them down, threw red-hot charcoal, and sprinkled bags of dust down the city. All means that could kill people were used.

When the Yuan Army attacked, they would also be attacked and killed by Yuan Army archers. The attackers and defenders came and went. Occasionally, Yuan Army soldiers rushed onto the city wall, but they would soon be killed by the Yuan Army. Whenever the defending Yulin Army fell into When the wind is down, the sound of bomb explosions will be heard on the battlefield.

"what……"

"Boom boom boom..."

The screams and explosions were endless, and the life-and-death fight on the battlefield was extremely brutal. Countless soldiers fell on the battlefield, and the fragility of life was completely exposed at this moment.

Bai Xiong was determined to capture Shaoshan City tonight. All 10,000 Tiger Divisions, one Leopard Division and two Eagle Divisions under his command were dispatched, and 70,000 people took turns to attack the city.

Facing the frenzied attack by the Beiyuan army, the 20,000 Imperial Forest Army and 20,000 Prefecture Army troops in the city, under the command of Cheng Wuwei, also began to take turns walking up the city wall to hold on.

Time passed little by little, and the fierce battle had lasted for an entire hour. At this moment, both the offensive and defensive sides suffered heavy casualties.
