Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 268 The Last Madness (Part [-])

Because the east wall of Shenchi was a bean curd project, it was easily smashed down by Fan Junzhang with a trebuchet.Although the collapsed city wall was only the upper part, a steep slope was formed because the earth and rocks after the collapsed city wall fell outside the city.

Although the steep slope was not easy to climb, the soldiers of the Tianxing Army led by Fan Junzhang swarmed up like a tide.

Due to the accidental collapse of the city wall, more than [-] soldiers of the Tang army who were originally defending here were swallowed up. Except for a few dozen soldiers who were dug out of the mound by other Tang army soldiers, the rest of the soldiers were buried in this way. under the city wall.

The more than one hundred surviving soldiers of the third regiment subconsciously shot arrows. The formation of the soldiers of the Tianxing Army is too dense. As long as the direction is good, you don't even need to aim to always shoot one.

Arrows were flying in the air, and the soldiers of the Tianxing Army were roaring and screaming. Many soldiers of the Tianxing Army were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. Turned into dust, life is as cheap as mustard.

The generals and soldiers of the Tang army naturally fought to the death and never retreated. Although it was only a thin army of more than a hundred people, it was simply delusional to imagine using bows and arrows to suppress as many as twenty times the enemy.The archers of the Tianxing Army began to rain arrows on the city wall.

Hundreds of thousands of arrows rained in front of the generals of the Tang army, and they really gave up the idea of ​​using bows and crossbows to prevent the enemy from climbing the city wall.If they fight at close range, they still have the power to fight.

After all, the gap in the city wall was only more than a hundred steps, and the Tianxing Army could not make full use of it no matter how many people they had.But shooting against them at medium and long distances is completely an act of looking for abuse.Only a wave of arrows rained down, and almost all the soldiers of the Tang army were hit by arrows.

If it weren't for the well-equipped and uniform iron armor of the soldiers of the Dingyuan Army, I am afraid that this round of arrow rain would be enough to wipe out the entire army of the third regiment.Fortunately, the third regiment was defended with fine steel armor, and the archers of the Tianxing Army did not use armor-piercing arrows. Among the more than a hundred soldiers of the Tang Army, except for a dozen unlucky ones who were shot in the throat or face and died, the rest Although they are full of thorns (arrows) like hedgehogs, they are still alive and kicking.

The hand-to-hand combat in close combat inevitably began.

"Kill, kill, kill!" The soldiers on both sides shouted hysterically, and swung their weapons to kill.

Shenchi City, at this time, is like pouring a ladle of cold water into a boiling oil pan, and it boils instantly.

At this time, the formation of more than a hundred people can barely block the gap.Fan Junzhang did not directly participate in the attack. He was the commander of the whole army, not the captain of death squads.His post was in the command position, looking at the thin formation of the city wall, he believed that with 2000 men twenty times the superior force, the Tang army would definitely not be able to resist.

However, the facts slapped Fan Junzhang hard.

The time for a stick of incense has passed, and the soldiers of the Tianxing Army are fighting under the city wall.

At the time of the two sticks of incense, the soldiers of the Tianxing Army were still fighting under the city.

During the cold war period, it is indeed easy to have relatively appalling achievements. For example, Xijun of the Tang Dynasty bought a hundred horses to defeat ten thousand enemies, and the governor of Liangzhou during the Southern and Northern Dynasties (this is an official position invented by the Jin Dynasty, similar to the current political commissar) Bei Gongchun Leading 100 Liangzhou cavalry, they defeated Liu Cong's [-] troops at the foot of Luoyang City. Naturally, Chen Qingzhi's [-] troops defeated hundreds of thousands of troops from the Northern Wei Dynasty.There is also Ran Min, three thousand Han riders broke through the [-] Hun army, beheaded more than [-] ranks, and chased hundreds of miles.In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Xie Xuan defeated Di Qin Fujian's army of more than [-] million with [-] troops.

With such a dazzling record, there is a prerequisite.The equipment of the two sides is not in direct proportion. The side with more people must have poor equipment, otherwise such a record cannot exist at all.Now the generals of the Tang army are wearing bright steel armor, which can resist the crude weapons in the hands of the generals of the Tianxing army.However, the horizontal knife in the hands of the generals of the Tang Army can make the soldiers of the Tianxing Army lose their combat effectiveness with a single blow.

The advantage in equipment can naturally be offset by the advantage in numbers to a certain extent. As the battle continued, the soldiers of the Tang army fell one by one in a pool of blood.

Under the light of the fire, there were less than [-] Tang soldiers standing on the gap in the city wall of Shenchi.But the thirty soldiers of the Tang army in this area are like stubborn stones, no matter how rampant the Tianxing army is, they just don't move.

"Ho ho. Ho ho—" the surviving soldiers of the Tang army roared like wild animals.In fact, the battle to the death was not created by Chen Ying. Chen Ying gave the soldiers of the Yuan army the hope of recovering Hedong.As long as Hedong and Taiyuan are recovered, they will be great heroes of the Tang Dynasty.Even if they died in battle, their family members can still receive a 20-year half-tax pension from Datang.

Chen Ying instilled a strong belief in the soldiers of the Tang army, and injected soul into their army.When you encounter an enemy, you must use your sword, even if you are surrounded by heavy siege, even if you are outnumbered, as long as you have one breath, you will fight to the end.

Therefore, even if there were only 30 people, even if they were already scarred, they did not give up, and still gritted their teeth and persisted.

Crazy is not the monopoly of the soldiers of the Dingyuan Army. The Tianxing Army, who was in an offensive state, saw that there were only twenty or thirty scarred soldiers left in the Tang Army, and they also became ruthless.Let out a low and frightening roar.Amidst the roar, hundreds of soldiers rushed forward at the same time, replacing the soldiers of the Tianxing Army who had been exhausted from the charge just now. This round of attack is completely different from the previous round!

The new army joined in. They took the shield as the guide, leaving no gap between the shield and the shield. The shield slowly advanced like a wall. No matter how hard the surviving soldiers of the Tang army tried, they couldn't break through the iron-covered shield.Hundreds of soldiers of the Tianxing Army pushed the shield bearers in front like bulldozers.

The surviving soldiers of the Tang army frantically waved their weapons, either stabbing or stabbing, or chopping or chopping, but all of this was of no avail.They are like a small stone in front of the bulldozer, being oppressed by the shield wall and slowly retreating.

Fan Junzhang, who was watching the battle at the bottom of the city, was overjoyed when he saw this and said, "The first climber will be rewarded with ten thousand dollars!"

The soldiers of the Tianxing Army, who originally had the absolute upper hand, were even more excited at this time.They roared: "Tianxing army is victorious, the general is mighty."

Push the surviving Tang army soldiers in the gap to the center of the city wall, forcing them into a corner.

The dozen or so survivors were filled with grief and indignation, but there was nothing they could do.

At this moment, Ji Huailiang of the Tang army shouted up to the sky: "The moon is bright in the Qin Dynasty and the pass in the Han Dynasty, and the Long Marcher has not yet returned!"

A dozen or so surviving officers and soldiers of the Tang army also shouted: "But let the flying general of Longcheng stay, and don't teach Huma to cross the Yin Mountain."

Fan Junzhang said with a blank face: "They are all strong men, each of them is the master ear, and reward their whole corpses!"

Fan Junzhang did not persuade them to surrender, he knew that these Tang soldiers would never surrender.

Ji Huailiang faced the direction of Yanmen Pass, and slowly knelt down: "General, you are humble and incompetent!"

After speaking, Ji Huailiang and a dozen or so surviving soldiers gathered together, waiting for the last moment.

At this time, Fan Junzhang's order was conveyed to the front line of the Tianxing Army: "Tianxing Army officers and men obey orders, these are warriors, reward their whole corpses!"
