The reborn general girl is the emperor

Chapter 69
Although I don't know how Wen Zhehan did it, Li Dingshan is a seasoned veteran after all, and he quickly found a countermeasure after being shocked.

"Arrange spears and shields, stick to the line of defense!"

Li Dingshan calmly ordered the rear army to defend, and at the same time mobilized the archers of the central army to support the rear army, and ordered the front army to go up the city wall to speed up the attack.

The messenger quickly conveyed Li Dingshan's order.

The rear army, disturbed by the raid, was quickly rectified. The shield spearmen stepped forward and formed a square formation to block the cavalry charge, and the archers shot and killed the cavalry behind them.

Thousands of arrows were fired, but the cavalry who had been charging forward suddenly scattered and turned their heads into the alley behind them.

Countless arrows fell and pierced into the brick walls and blue tiles, but the cavalry disappeared.

Just when everyone thought that the cavalry had retreated, a group of cavalry rushed out of Suzaku Long Street where the lingering flames still remained, and each of them danced with flint, and the flowing flame drew arcs of fire in the air, just like playing with bolides at a temple fair during the Spring Festival juggling troupe.

This team of cavalry yelled loudly, and the fireballs in their hands danced dazzlingly. As soon as the archers put their second wave of arrows on their bows, this group of people had already rushed forward.

Immediately, the spearman raised the spear protruding from the gap in the shield, trying to break the leg of the horse that stepped on it, and pierce the lung of the horse that hit it.

But this team of cavalry, who were like a juggling troupe, suddenly turned in the direction half a meter away from the spear shield, and shot out the fire meteor from their hands.

The two bolides pulled by a string can fly a long distance under the sudden release of hands.

Before everyone could react, the bolides lined up and smashed down!

When the bolide fell to the ground, one could still hear the crisp sound of the earthen jar falling to the ground and shattering.

A stink of tung oil spread everywhere as the fireball fell to the ground, and the flame of the fireball, which was originally the size of a baby's head, immediately flowed like ground water.

It was only then that everyone realized that the cavalry had filled a crock pot with tung oil, set fire to the surface and threw it over!

Someone screamed and threw the fire, and someone shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"

However, when the rain of arrows fell, the person who threw the bolide had long since disappeared.

As soon as the rain of arrows stopped, another group of cavalry rushed up, dancing things in their hands, but there was no fire.

Still repeating the old trick, running away after throwing, the arrows of the archers could not fall on them at all.

The strong smell of wine and oil spread out, and a little sparks would ignite blazingly, and the entire rear army suddenly burst into flames and became a mess.

But the other side obviously had no intention of giving up, and they "sent things" here one by one.

As the fire spread, the defense line of Li Dingshan's rear army facing the cavalry quickly disintegrated, and another group of cavalry rushed out from nowhere, and rushed directly into the army that had been burned by the fire for a long time.

A group of cavalry dancing jars followed behind them, "sending" the things in their hands to the deeper depths.

These people are not fond of fighting, and quickly retreat after a wave. The archers rarely even shoot a horse hair!
Li Dingshan's rear army was forced to retreat steadily by the elusive cavalry, and soon the fire approached the central army.

Li Dingshan blushed with anger at this sudden change: "Abandon the shield! Attack!"

The opponent's way of playing guerrilla, it is impossible to do anything to them simply by sticking to it.Instead, they themselves will be cornered by the opponent's rounds of fire attacks!

Defense is useless right now, and even under such a fire, the tripping rope is useless. They can only attack and attack with crowd tactics.

He couldn't believe it, this group of people was really endless!
The soldiers who received the order changed their defense to offense, and rushed towards the rear.

But the cavalry who had rushed and fought before began to follow them around, coming in and out of the fire, and sending more pottery into Li Dingshan's army.

Without the defense of the spear shield formation, the cavalry was operating under the cover of a team of people fighting, and a team of people sent the line of fire farther. In less than half an hour, the fire burned to Li Dingshan's middle army!
Li Dingshan was furious. While ordering the central army and the rear army to besiege the cavalry and block their retreat, he urged the front army to speed up the attack on the city and quickly opened the city gate passage, so that the army could retreat into the city and avoid the more violent attacks outside the city. fire.

Under the siege of Li Dingshan's army, the cavalry who had been in a hurry were left behind and fell into a fight.

The cavalry began to suffer casualties, but the casualties of Li Dingshan's army were obviously heavier.

Just as the two teams of cavalry were engaged in a bitter battle, suddenly behind Li Dingshan and in the direction of the Suzaku Gate Tower, another rain of arrows roared!
Li Dingshan's army, which was forced to approach Suzaku Gate by the fire, was immediately shrouded in arrow rain, and even because the tower of Suzaku Gate was already in a fierce battle, the people below the city were completely unprepared.

The rain of arrows fell, and there was a sound of wailing!
Li Dingshan turned pale with shock, turned his head suddenly, and looked at the tower of Suzaku Gate through the gap between the shield wall.

The battle to the death on the city tower was still going on, but his people were firmly confined to the edge of the city wall, unable to take a step forward!
Behind the wall of melee, there were many more archers at some point, and they shot every arrow without stopping.

Without a unified command, the bow string is empty, and the arrow is set. The uneven speed of drawing the bow has formed a continuous rain of arrows with no gap at all!
The cavalry who had been besieged before had already taken advantage of the turmoil, broke through the defense, rushed into the fire, and disappeared.

The moon set on the western mountain, and a white belly turned up on the horizon, and the arrow rain stopped.

The archers on the city wall had their quiver empty, and without hesitation, they dropped their bows and drew their knives, and fought with the enemies who charged up the city wall.

The fire under the city also gradually dissipated, but Li Dingshan's [-] army was consumed by more than half of the arrow rain and the fire at this time, but still failed to capture the Suzaku Gate.

Li Dingshan's eyes turned red with anger, but before he could reorganize the army, the cavalrymen who disappeared earlier came back aggressively!
The cavalry is fast and powerful, rushing into the army, as if entering the land of no one, with a sweep of swords, guns, swords and halberds, a large number of lives will be harvested!
Some people's heads flew out of their necks before they could even recover from the rain of arrows and the smoke from the fire.

The cavalry rushed in quickly, not gradually compressing the living space of Li Dingshan's army in the peripheral guerrilla like before, but like a sharp knife, straight into the interior of Li Dingshan's army!
Li Dingshan's army, whose formation had been disrupted for a long time, could not resist the charge of this overwhelming cavalry at all.

But in a short while, the cavalry regiment, which had been seeing its tail but not its head before, rushed to Li Dingshan.

Li Dingshan threw out a spear brazenly, and stabbed a cavalryman who was about to rush in front of him. He stretched out his hand and quickly grabbed the rein of the horse, turned on the horse, but saw a silver spear stabbing him!
Swinging the knife and firing the shot, Li Dingshan sat on his horse, turned around and swung the knife close to the barrel of the gun to kill, but saw a black shadow suddenly rushing towards him!
