retaliate

Chapter 1035 Surprising
Governor Helian ordered the infantry to attack because no catapults from the Northern Army were found.

According to rumors, the trebuchet was like a thunderbolt, which was a big blow to morale.

But only for siege.

What I didn't expect was...

"The trebuchet!"

In the attack array ahead, someone screamed.

Helian Du looked at those stones calmly, and said, "Yang Xuan is cunning!"

Lin Nan said: "He hid the trebuchet in the city, just waiting to give us a heavy blow at this moment."

This is a different kind of ambush.

When the stone falls to the ground, you can see dust flying, accompanied by blood arrows, even limbs, or colorful things...

Then the stone rushed forward, invincible.

When the stone stopped, behind it was an alley of flesh and blood.

Dozens of flesh and blood alleys are nothing to the huge enemy army, but every soldier who sees these alleys can't help feeling timid.

This is what Yang Xuan wanted!
Few people are against many people, and the side with fewer people can rely on morale besides ability.

Looking over the top of the city, just after entering the city, all the houses on both sides were demolished.

Catapults are lined up one by one, and at this moment, it is in full swing.

"Pull it up!"

Teams of sergeants struggled to pull the swing arms down and buckle.

"Load the stone bomb!"

"put!"

Bang bang bang bang!

The meteorite rain crossed the city again.

In front, the enemy has already been approached.

The infantry strangled together, and behind them, the cavalry watched impatiently, waiting for a breakthrough.

"My lord, I'm going down." Lieutenant General Jiang Cun approached and commanded.

Yang Xuan nodded, "This battle is a battle of spirit!"

"The subordinate understands!"

Yang Xuan could retreat and abandon a lonely Dangding City to the enemy.It is impossible for the enemy army to stay here for a long time, and it cannot be exhausted.When they move forward, Yang Xuan will be able to take Dangding City back.

But he chose to stay because of his spirit!
The two sides continued to charge repeatedly, and Yang Xuan was watching.

"Duke, the enemy's two wings." Han Ji pointed to the left.

The enemy's cavalry was outflanking the two flanks.

"Our army is backed by Dangding City, the two wings are approaching, arrows are raining from the top of the city, and there are infantry below the city, so there is no need to worry!"

What Yang Xuan had in mind was the overall situation.

Helian Du led the army here, and the first goal must be to restore the original situation in the south and guard against further invasion by the northern army.

Another goal must be to control Lin Jun and restore Ningxing's control over Taizhou and Tanzhou.

But now let alone Taizhou and Tanzhou, even the fucking Chenzhou has been taken by Lin Jun.

Lin Jun has already sat down, isn't Helian Du flustered?
With Taizhou, Tanzhou, Chenzhou, and the three states in hand, and the Northern Border Army staring at one side, Helian Du's army is in a dilemma...

What can he do in such a situation?
Defeat the northern army!
Defeat Yang Xuan, the famous general of the Tang Dynasty!

In this way, when he attacked Lin Jun, he didn't need to worry about the threat of the northern army.

This method is upright and impeccable.

Moreover, the relationship between the three is very clear.

But what he never expected was that now his army encountered resistance under Dangding City.

In this battle, Helen Du must win!

On the contrary, Yang Xuan is also the same.

He felt uncertain about defeating this formidable opponent. After all, the difference in numbers between the two sides was too great.

But he has to maintain the current situation.

In other words, the undefeated situation needs to be maintained!
The northern border army stared at Helian Du's army like a tiger, restraining him so that Lin Jun could survive this difficult period.

When Lin Jun gained a firm foothold, the land of the three states was like a wound on Beiliao's body, bleeding continuously.

The enemy of an enemy is a friend. This saying never goes out of style.

At this moment, Yang Guogong's heart is closely connected with the soldiers and civilians of the three states.

A group of Northern Liao infantry rushed in, looking at it, it turned out to be something of cultivation.

"Butcher!"

Yang Xuan pointed there.

"Second follow!"

"Duke, I invite you to fight!" The old thief was angry, feeling that he was being ignored.

"You go too!" Yang Xuan laughed.

It's a good thing to be happy when you hear about the war.

He glanced at Pei Jian, this man was even more powerful, but in his heart, this was the general's choice, not cannon fodder for the battle.

The old handsome Guo snorted coldly, probably feeling the malice in his eyes.

"I'm not going to ask you to take action in such a small scene!"

Yang Xuan laughed.

"Are you sure about this battle?" Ning Yayun asked.

"It looks a little precarious, doesn't it?" Yang Xuan said.

"The enemy army is powerful." Ning Yayun didn't understand battle formations, but she could see the changes in the situation.

"It can block it!" Yang Xuan still had some confidence, "However, if the fighting continues, there will be many casualties."

"Is there a way?" Ning Yayun flicked her tail, "No, I can fight!"

Yang Xuan was a little surprised at his initiative, and felt slightly warm, "No need."

This is the second battle between Northern Xinjiang and Beiliao since the last Helian Peak Royal Conquest.

Jie Long couldn't take his eyes off, and suddenly asked: "Why didn't Helian Du press down heavily?"

"It's such a big place, our army is backed by Dangding City, and Helian Du can't turn around and surround it. Moreover, the city is still providing all kinds of supplies continuously. Massive pressure will only cause chaos!"

Well said.

Jie Long looked back, and it was He Lianrong who said it.

"Then what do you think will happen if this battle continues?"

Jeron objected.

"I don't know. After all, the enemy army has a large number of people. The longer this battle drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for our army!" After all, He Lianrong once guarded one side and led a large army to fight, so his analysis is convincing.

On the opposite side, Lin Nan said to Changling: "Don't worry, Princess Chang, the current stalemate is only temporary. They have [-] and we have [-]. We can attack in rotation to let the soldiers rest, but the Northern Army cannot. It will continue like this , They will always be exhausted. At that time, it is time for a fatal blow."

Chang Ling asked, "What if the northern border army enters the city and sticks to it?"

"Then, it will be lively." Lin Nan smiled very comfortably, "If the Northern Xinjiang Army enters the city, our army will surround Dangding City, and it will be a turtle in an urn."

The guard said: "Once the Northern Xinjiang Army enters the city, they will not be able to get out."

That's it!

Chang Ling looked ahead and thought, how would he deal with it?
She suddenly realized that she didn't feel a sense of common hatred and hatred, and she didn't think defeating the Northern Xinjiang Army was a happy event.

But in the end reason overwhelmed emotion.

Helian Du turned back, "Eldest Princess, the whole army will attack later, please stay in the central army."

Changling has never experienced battle, the point is, if something happened to her in the army, Helian Du would not be able to tell clearly.

The only blood of the late emperor!

If something goes wrong, he can't bear the responsibility.

Chang Ling nodded, and Helian Du felt relieved.

Chang Ling asked, "Has the time come?"

Helian Du glanced ahead, "Wait another hour."

For an hour, he calculated the physical strength of the people and the rotation that the Northern Xinjiang Army could perform... the ultimate rotation.

Chang Ling said: "Then, I will wait for the good news from the General!"

She looked calm, as if she didn't know that she had become a foil.

Shen Tong was worried that she was dissatisfied, and explained: "Princess Dachang, this battle must be fought."

Although Changling didn't understand battle formations, he knew such battles like the palm of his hand, "We must first defeat the Northern Frontier Army, so that we can focus on suppressing Lin Jun."

Shen Tong nodded, "Compared with the Northern Border Army, Ning Xing cares more about defeating Lin Jun's troops and deterring dissidents!"

"Lin Ya also meant the same thing." Lin Nan interjected, "Lin Jun didn't listen to his orders, which made the rebellious officials and thieves under his command a little ready to move. If he doesn't suppress this nephew, how will he order those subordinates in the future?"

This situation is like a triangle relationship.

Pulled around and moved the whole body.

If you move one of them, the other will be implicated.

Changling heard someone say, "Then what if we retreat?"

"shut up!"

The man was immediately scolded.

The battle was still going on, so if he said such frustrating words, Helian Du had a good temper if he didn't kill him.

But this assumption is surprising.

Yes!

If the army left, how would Yang Xuan and Lin Jun get along?

According to Yang Xuan's pissing nature, he will definitely go north from now on.

Lin Jun sit and watch?

It stands to reason that he should just sit back and watch, and even take advantage of the fire to rob.

But if Beijiang gradually became stronger, it might form an encirclement circle around him.

If he made a move, Yang Xuan would definitely strike back.

Gee!
If Yang Xuan and Lin Jun fought, Ning Xing would surely burst out laughing.

This situation seems to be better!

But there is a premise, that is, Daliao is weak.

Seeing that Lin Nan's eyes were slightly cold, Changling knew that these generals had thought of that possibility.

If the army withdraws this time, the hinterland of the south will be exposed before Yang Xuan's eyes.

With his pissing nature, he will drive straight in.

By then...

Changling dismissed this idea.

Will not lose!
Can't lose!

Ahead, the strangulation of the two sides became more and more fierce.

The resilience of the Northern Xinjiang Army is vividly displayed.

Facing the opponent's successive attacks, they are like a towering mountain facing the impact of a hurricane, standing still.

This army is really impressive.

The cavalry on both wings outflanked them, and then tried to make a surprise attack.

"Fire arrows!"

At the top of the city, the archers were elated and unscrupulously raining arrows down.

Then, the formation of the Northern Xinjiang Army on the left and right flanks changed to face them.

Then, get out of the way.

"It's a ballista!"

Huge crossbows flew over, wearing horses or cavalry, it looked like a big kebab.

The horse didn't stop walking, and then the owner whipped it desperately.

"Fire arrows!"

A wave of crossbow arrows caused many cavalrymen to fall.

But the two sides still contacted.

"it is good!"

Helian Du said: "Suppress it, attack from three sides." He pointed to the city gate and said, "If this old man will definitely make people close the city gate, this battle will not end and the gate will not be opened."

Lin Nan nodded, "Otherwise the soldiers will feel that there is a way out, and they will not be firm in their fighting spirit."

But the performance of the Northern Xinjiang Army slapped them in the face.

No one looked back at the open city gate.

"Come on!" Helian Du's eyes were sharp, making Chang Ling think of the falcon.

Pointing to the front, he said: "Press frontally, forcing Yang Xuan to send reinforcements from the two wings."

If Yang Xuan dispatched troops from the two wings to reinforce the front, then Helian Du would be able to increase the attacking power of the two wings... The old man has a lot of people!

This is a way to maximize the advantage of numbers.

"Sure enough, he is a veteran!" Shen Tong praised: "This time, the Northern Xinjiang Army is on fire."

Changling was silent.

Shen Tong sighed, worried that she was worried about the other side, and persuaded: "Elder Princess, this is a dispute between two countries."

Changling remained silent.

Frontally, the enemy has stepped up its attack.

Yang Xuan shook his head, "The two wings remain the same, unshakable."

This is a contest of wills.

He Lianrong asked in a low voice: "Commander, how long will it take for the reinforcements to arrive?"

He Lianyan was silent for a long time, "The people from Tao County... will surprise you. Probably, they will arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"It's late!" After all, He Lianrong was once a member of the party. "If there are 5000 people in the city, they can take over the army and enter the city. It will be no problem to stick to it for two days."

But there are only more than [-] people in the city, some of them have to patrol the city to guard against the riots of the people in the city, and some have to go to the top of the city to help the two wings defend.

He Lianrong glanced at Yang Xuan, seeing him watching the battle situation quietly, his eyes never changing, he thought to himself, could this be the city where the mountains collapsed in front of his eyes without being surprised?
Old man, I have been taught!

The frontal defense looked tough, but the casualties were increasing.

The other party is also the same, but there are so many people on the other side!
They're even rotating attacks.

The Northern Xinjiang Army is now relying on willpower to persevere.

"Turn harder!" Lin Nan clenched his fists tightly, "Two wings! Two wings should ignore the loss!"

Helian Du glanced at him, "Now, it's not the old man who should be worried."

Lin Nan blushed, "The lower official thought about Yang Xuan's past achievements, and he lost his composure."

"The old man is also quite excited, but it's only for a moment." Helian Du warned: "Until the moment when the enemy army collapses, don't slack off."

"Yes!"

Half an hour later, Helian Du said, "It's almost there."

He glanced at Changling, and he didn't know who he was explaining to, "The resilience of the northern border army exceeded my expectations. At this moment, they are persevering with will. Yang Xuan only holds [-] reserves in his hand. At this moment, put him The reserve team was forced out, and immediately, the whole army pressed up and defeated the enemy in one go!"

Lin Nan's eyes lit up, "General, please order me to go!"

This is a dazzling moment, as a great general, Helian Du will naturally not grab such an opportunity to show off, and said with a smile: "That's fine!"

Lin Nan broke the horse and waved, "Assemble!"

Ten thousand cavalry assembled.

Shen Tong said: "The most intense moment of this battle is coming!"

Chang Ling's hand was in his cuff, holding a letter.

"Attack!"

Lin Nan led his army to attack vigorously.

Helian Du was rarely in a good mood, and said with a smile: "You guys are going to act wild, I hope Yang Xuan can resist for a while longer."

Shen Tong said with a smile: "At this moment, Yang Xuan is probably still looking forward to Taoxian reinforcements! By the way, there is still a town south."

Helian Du said indifferently: "The old man has already sent the left-wing scouts to go deep. If Yang Xuan wants to repeat the old trick, the old man will tell him, don't underestimate the heroes of the world!"

Changling sighed softly.

On the opposite banner, Yang Xuan was smiling unexpectedly.

"Kingdom!"

Tu Chang's face was solemn, "I'm afraid the soldiers won't last long."

He rarely expresses his views on the situation of the battle, and once he speaks, he must have noticed that something is wrong.

"Reinforcements are coming." Yang Xuan said.

Tu Chang looked at He Lianyan.

Helianyan remained silent.

The day before yesterday, people from Jinyiwei came to report that the reinforcements would take four more days.

No matter how fast it is, it will take tomorrow to arrive.

"The enemy army is attacking."

On the opposite side, the enemy's flag waved.

Lin Feibao said: "Protect the Duke!"

"I won't run away!"

Yang Xuan said angrily, and then looked to the right.

"The right side... the southern part of the town? No way!" Tu Chang said, "There is a huge army on the opposite side, and Helian Du is a veteran general. Naturally, he will send a large group of rangers to guard against a possible surprise attack in the southern part of the town."

Jiang He'er's heart brightened, and he heard the Duke curse: "It's finally here."

On the right, groups of enemy scouts were fleeing.

In the distance, dark cavalry are chasing.

"What a town south!" Jiang He'er praised: "Is Xin Wuji so amazing?"

On the opposite side, Helian Du's expression changed, "Who is it?"

"Who is it?" Chang Ling looked carefully.

A great flag is flying.

"It's Lin Ziqi!"
