Chapter 139 Siege

In the blink of an eye, more than a year has passed, the cold comes and the summer comes, the severe winter is coming to an end, and the weather begins to warm up.

Song Ruan and Ruan Yunqing had been guarding the city of Yanhui for a year, and the battle between the two sides became more and more stalemate this year. Nie Pengcheng continued to follow Song Ruan's wishes, and continued to harass the enemy in the rebel camp. It was a real head-to-head actual combat, and over the past year or so, the rebels had lost their troops and were tired of coping. When they heard the sound of horseshoes in the opposite city, they unconsciously felt pain in their heads.

Nie Pengcheng is very good at this kind of guerrilla warfare. He first lures the enemy generals out of the camp, and then annihilates them one by one; or he finds the weakest place for the enemy's defense regardless of which corner, kills the generals, rushes in for a while, and disturbs the enemy camp. The people turned their backs on their backs, and quickly assembled a team to rise up to resist, but Nie Pengcheng had already withdrawn his troops with gold, and ran away with 3000 troops.When you are lucky, you can grab some supplies, horses and weapons back, and when you are unlucky, you can also rush to cook in the enemy camp and have a meal of meat soup and pastries with him.

This kind of harassing tactics does not distinguish between time of day, day and night, or even good or bad weather. It is used anytime, anywhere, and every time when the enemy is most surprised, it is almost impossible to guard against.

Nie Pengcheng had a very bad mind. At first he felt that the tactic of fighting and running was too meek and uncomfortable, without the slightest general style, but later he gradually tasted the sweetness, and he was happy without Song Ru doing any more ideological work on him. He kept coming up with various ways to harass the enemy camp, like a cat catching a mouse, punishing the soldiers in the rebel camp until it was miserable.

The more cloudy it is, the rain, the thunder and hail, the more excited Nie Pengcheng is.Because at any time like this, it means that the defense in the rebel camp has reached its weakest point. As long as they catch their loopholes a little bit, sneaking into the enemy camp becomes a piece of cake.

Once he took advantage of the heavy rain for several days and led people to dig through the river channel in the mountain. The river swelled so much that day, and he only needed to dig a gap to divert all the water from a river to the mountain depression in front of Yanhui City.That was the place where Ma Yuan stationed his troops. After this man-made flash flood, the men and horses in Ma Yuan's army were overwhelmed.The soldiers in the north have been fighting on the Gobi and sandy land for a long time, and there are few places with water access. When the mountain torrents released, the low-lying areas immediately became a vast ocean. The rebels had nowhere to escape, and they could not swim. Countless rebels drowned.

Another time was even more tragic.Autumn has been dry for several days, the autumn tiger lingers, the world is on fire, and the weather in August is still so hot that people feel uncomfortable all over, and even a little movement makes people sweat.

People were so hot that suddenly a wind blew up, and the northwest wind came suddenly, and the yellow sand rolled up, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. In just half a day, people could not be seen half a meter apart.Nie Pengcheng led three thousand elite soldiers quietly into the rebel camp.At that time, the wind was quite strong, and no one could stand firmly against the strong wind, and the guards in the enemy camp were blown to pieces.Nie Pengcheng and the three thousand elite soldiers were all light cavalry caps and a cotton robe soaked in water over their armor. They entered the camp when the wind was strong and set fires everywhere.

Everyone in this group carried rockets on their backs. The arrowheads of the rockets were specially made. The bare shafts of the arrows were wrapped with tarpaulin and poured with tung oil.After Nie Pengcheng broke into the camp, he first knocked down the three hundred guards who came to resist, and then ordered to shoot arrows.All of a sudden, the rockets were fired, and there was no need to use any special archers. Anyway, as long as it was something in the rebel camp, as big as a camp tent or as small as a stake for tying a horse, it would be fine.

The northwest wind is blowing fiercely, and the sky has been dry and dry for the past few days. At this time, there is no need to deliberately set fire, as long as a little spark leaks out, it will cause a fire all over the sky. How can Nie Pengcheng and others be so provocative.After the rocket passed, the wind assisted the fire, and several tents were burned within a short time. There were many rebels, and the distance between the tents was not far. Adding oil, half the sky in the rebel camp was ablaze in the blink of an eye, and even the tung oil that Song Ren specially asked them to bring was not used.

So there is no need to go into details, back and forth, like this every day, Nie Pengcheng divided his men into several groups, specially for harassing the enemy camp.After several months of fighting, there was almost no loss on their side, the troops were safe and sound, and some spoils of war were captured from time to time.But Feng Kui's side suffered heavy losses, not to mention the loss of soldiers and generals, and the morale of the army was gradually weakened.More and more soldiers took advantage of the chaos and fled, and sometimes even ten or a hundred soldiers disappeared.

Feng Kui was so angry that he flew into a rage, and immediately sent an order that all soldiers found fleeing would be shot to death.In front of the soldiers of the three armies, he killed those deserters who were captured alive, trying to make an example to the monkeys, so that the remaining soldiers would not dare to escape again.

It's a pity that the morale of the army has been scattered, and it is more difficult to recover than going to heaven.Using violent means at this time will only have the opposite effect, making those soldiers who have no intention of fighting feel that the commander is cruel, and want to escape.After the murder, the fleeing of the generals did not improve, but even worsened. Even a partial general who had always been with Feng Kui, because he was dissatisfied with Feng Kui's domineering behavior, quietly took his [-] troops with him. , went north to flee, and there was no more news.

This action completely angered Feng Kui, who was already suspicious and unwise, but at this moment, the situation in front of him was even more dizzy.On the one hand, he ordered to strengthen the defense to guard against Nie Pengcheng's harassment like a convulsion.On the other side, the troops were assembled immediately, regardless of the calendar of the day, they led an army of [-], and charged Yan back to the city. Sima Hong had long waited until his hands were itchy. As if scratching my heart, it was very itchy.Seeing Feng Kui's attack on the city, Sima Hong wanted to thank his eight generations of ancestors, and hurriedly mobilized his troops, went up to the tower, and started a three-day offensive and defensive battle.

Thanks to Nie Pengcheng's contribution, the people and horses in the city were able to cultivate their health and well-being.After several days of idle raising in the city, he was already well-fed and strong at this time, just waiting for Feng Kui's people to come and do a good job.

In this battle, the sky was dark and the ground was dark, blood staining the city.Countless soldiers climbed up the city wall with ladders. Song Ju shot the people with arrows first, and then commanded the trebuchet to shoot from a long distance. After killing the first batch, the rebels behind stepped on the corpses of the people in front and climbed up Watchtower.

These people don't avoid bows and crossbows, they wear iron armor, layer upon layer, like crucian carp crossing a river.They risked their lives to climb upwards, blood flowed under their feet, and those who climbed up the tower first had their heads chopped off by the knives and axes lying on the edge of the battlements. Stepping on the ladder under your feet, you keep climbing up.

Song Ju led all the soldiers in the city to defend. The gate of the city had already doubled in thickness, and the brick mound was extremely strong.Numerous elite soldiers had already been prepared on both sides of the defensive entrance, just waiting for the rebels who killed the tower to come and die.

The fight lasted for three days and three nights. During this period, no one rested. The soldiers took turns to go into battle. They could only take a bite of dry food and drink the strong wine in the gourd around their waists while the brothers in front were holding up.

The horses neighed amidst the sound of gunfire, and the shouts of killing continued for a long time. Dark red plasma was splashed on the city wall, and it would soon be covered with fresh blood.

Ruan Yunqing's arms were numb from the killing, and his eyes were filled with blood.I don't know how many rebels fell in front of him, and he himself suffered dozens of knife wounds and arrow wounds, and his hair was mashed with blood and sweat, sticking to his forehead in strands.Ruan Yunqing couldn't stop stroking its neck, feeding it something, while softly comforting it: "Hold on, hold on, Xiao Hei. "

Wuyun Taxue let out a long hiss, as if he understood Ruan Yunqing's words, he rushed into the enemy's formation again, another round of war drums sounded, the red sun rose, and after another bloody battle, Feng Kui's rebels were finally unable to follow up. Order to withdraw troops.

Song Ren stood on the tower, looking at the Dongli soldiers in the city whose clothes were torn and blood-stained, but still standing, he couldn't help shouting, "Feng Kui!"

He bent his bow and set up an arrow, pointed at the handsome flag of the enemy camp on the opposite side, raised his hand and shot, the arrow shot out like a shooting star chasing the sun, and shot 180 steps away, firmly stuck on the handsome flag held high by the rebels superior.

The flagpole fell in response to the sound, and Song Ruo swore loudly: "If you are not captured alive and sacrificed to General Xiao, Song Ruo vows not to return you!"

The sound of Song Ren was like a bell, and the solemn oath shook the entire army. Not only the soldiers of Dongli, but also the rebel camp caused quite a disturbance.No matter how good an ordinary person's riding and archery is, the farthest they can shoot an arrow is no more than a hundred paces, and when it reaches 150 paces, it is already the limit of a six-stone hard bow.Song Ren was able to shoot an arrow as far as the flagpole of the rebel army at nearly [-] paces, penetrate the bottom of the pole, go straight through, and firmly insert it on the flagpole. His physical strength and skill are enough to shock the three armies. They were ashamed and trembling with fear.

The morale of Dongli's soldiers was greatly boosted. As soon as Song Yi's words fell, Yan returned to the city, and there were loud shouts one after another: "Catch Feng Kui alive! Squeeze the enemy camp!"

The shouts resounded through the sky, making Feng Kui terrified. He hid in the tent, frightened out of his wits, no matter how the soldiers supported him, he was like a puddle of mud, unable to stand up again. This battle was a great victory, and Song Ren sent an order Rewarding the three armies, slaughtering more than a hundred livestock, big white steamed buns are enough, so that the soldiers who have been bloody for three days and three nights can have a good meal.

Sima Hong sent people to clean up the battlefield and clean up the corpses on the city walls and gates.Nie Pengcheng was furious, and took another 3000 troops. Taking advantage of the fact that the opponent was exhausted and had just returned to the camp, before he had time to catch his breath, he sneaked into the enemy camp again, burned more than a hundred tents of the rebel army, and robbed three horses. When the war horse and two hemp bags of fodder came back, Fang felt a bad breath in his chest slowly subsided.

Song Ren didn't care about himself, and immediately called Ruan Yunqing to check it out as soon as he got off the tower. He looked up, down, left, and right several times, until he was sure that the injuries on his body were only skin wounds and did not hurt the muscles and bones. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and let Ning Bai Bandage Ruan Yunqing well, and don't let the wound worsen.Only then did he bring the spirits over, poured it on the wound, and began to treat his wound.

Everyone gathered together, drinking the broth as fine wine, and drank heartily. When they talked about the fierce battles of the past few days, they couldn't help crying for the dead brothers. They dried up their tears and ate and drank again. There are still countless tough battles waiting for tomorrow. them.

Unexpectedly, just after dinner, Mo Zhengfei ran in, approached Song Ren, and whispered: "Your Highness, Zhang Qiao has caught him."
