Eighth year of Chongzhen
Chapter 106 fierce battle
Chapter 106 fierce battle
Gao Yingxiang was wearing a cloth robe and sitting on the top chair, with a hideous expression on his face, his eyes seemed to spew fire, looking directly at Gao Yingen who was kneeling in the tent.After hearing the news, Guo Tianxing and other big leaders also rushed over, no one dared to make a sound under the tense atmosphere, the air in the tent seemed to freeze.
A fire by the army burned more than 2000 shi of forage and beans, and the fire in the forage and stables caused the frightened war horses to run around. The gates of the camp poured out and rushed into the camp of the bandits, trampling the camp on the southern outskirts of the bandits city to pieces, countless Liu Ai were trampled and collided by war horses to death in the panic.After tossing for more than half an hour, the fighting power was exhausted before it calmed down.After counting, it was found that more than [-] of the more than [-] war horses were killed or injured, and more than [-] people were killed or injured by the [-]-man cavalry. This is Gao Yingxiang's heart.
Looking at the culprit in front of him, Gao Yingxiang was already thinking about killing him.But after all, he is a compatriot of the same mother. Gao Yingen usually respects his eldest brother very much, and he is his eyes, ears and minions in the camp.
Killing is impossible, but if it is not serious, how can Gao Yingxiang order others in the future?
Gao Yingxiang gritted his teeth, and said bitterly: "How many times have I said that I must send someone to patrol the camp at night, why doesn't this bastard listen? If someone patrols the camp tonight, the officers and soldiers will be able to do so well." Something? Someone! Drag this beast out and chop it up!"
He struggled for a long time, and finally planned to kill Gao Yingen.One is not to kill and refuse to obey the crowd. Hundreds of elites have died, but the leader is fine, what do the people under him think?The second is to show his fairness.My own brother will be killed if he breaks the rules. If anyone dares to be disobedient, then Gao Ying'en is an example.
Gao Yingxiang, who was on the side, raised his troops and followed him all the way, knowing his temperament too well.Seeing Gao Yingxiang hesitated for a long time before uttering harsh words, Guo Tianxing immediately came out to intercede: "King Chuang, Brother Yingen should be punished for what happened tonight, but beheading is too heavy! We have fought countless battles with officers and soldiers over the years, When did the officers and soldiers come to attack at night? Not only to welcome grace, but if I lead that team, I will be recruited! I think it’s better to save his life, and wait for him to go to battle to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds!"
The other leaders also tried to persuade them. Gao Yingxiang breathed a sigh of relief, but said: "For the sake of the pleadings of the brothers, I will spare your life! But if you don't punish you, you can't explain to the dead brother! If you drag it down, you will be beaten [-] times." Army sticks! After the fight, go and clean up the camp!"
Several guards let the disheveled Gao Ying'en go out, took off his obscene pants, exposed his white buttocks, pushed him down on the bench and began to beat the army sticks, all the thieves who watched couldn't stop laughing Didn't take it seriously at all.
Gao Yingxiang in the tent said: "We have suffered a big loss tonight, we can't just let it go! We will attack the city after we clean it up! Breaking Shouzhou will not seal the knife for three days! The first to climb the city will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver! Two wives and wives !"
Hun Baiwan said: "King Chuang, although we have suffered a loss, we can see something is coming!"
Gao Yingxiang hurriedly asked: "What do you see?"
Hun Baiwan proudly said: "There must be few officers and soldiers in the city, why not sneak attack at night? The officers and soldiers just want to scare us and make us afraid of them!"
Gao Yingxiang nodded and said: "Well, what Lao Zhao said is right! If there were more officers and soldiers, they would have fought us with swords and guns! Everyone work harder, I want to have lunch in Shouzhou!"
In the official army camp in Shouzhou City, Wu Qun and a dozen soldiers who participated in the night attack were lying in a spacious tent. The doctor accompanying the army was applying ointment to their wounds, and then wrapped them in boiled white cotton cloth.
The night attack team of 100 people, including Wu Qun, returned a total of 67 people. Thirty-two people died in battle outside the city, and almost all the rest were wounded.
When everyone was burning the fodder in the stables, Wu Qun saw that the main gate could not go out, so he had an idea and set fire to a barracks. escaped.
Although the thieves became angry and chased them relentlessly, all the thieves nearby were alarmed at that time, and Wu Qun took advantage of the chaos and shouted, "The officers and soldiers are coming! Run!"
The thieves outside were just woken up, and when they were in a daze, they couldn't tell the truth from the fake, and there was a sudden chaos.Although the pursuers were blocked indirectly, tens of thousands of people ran around, and the scene was very scary.Several officers and soldiers were crushed to the point of being trampled to death, Wu Qun hurriedly shouted, and the rest moved closer to his side, and dozens of people formed a joint force to avoid greater casualties.Then Wu Qun led everyone to the city wall and walked back to the south gate along the city wall.The thieves were so busy putting out the fire and rescuing the horses that they had no time to think, and everyone was able to enter the city safely.
After fighting desperately, Sun San and others fell into the bandit camp. When they set fire on the left side, they fought with a group of bandit soldiers and killed more than ten people; seven or eight people were trampled to death by the crowd.
Huang Degong was very happy.At the cost of dozens of people, it was too worthwhile to cause huge chaos and losses to the thieves.
He came to the camp to visit Wu Qun and the others, and said that after the war, he would ask for credit and give rewards to everyone.The list of fallen soldiers will be reported to the imperial court, and the buried silver will be sent to his home by the Ministry of War. He will definitely not bury everyone's contributions, and then leave in a hurry.
After cleaning up the camp and burying the corpses, the bandits finally launched an attack on Shouzhou.
The south gate was attacked by the leader of the bandits, Yi Zhangqing, who led 5000 people; the east gate, who was led by [-] gangsters, also led an attack by thousands of people;
Because there was no need to hide their strength, Huang Degong's troops took over the two city defenses in the east and south.Li Long's guards put out [-] guards to defend the west, [-] guards to the north to guard, and the rest of the guards served as a reserve team to support at any time.More than [-] civilians were responsible for carrying equipment and carrying casualties down the city.
Except for the north gate, the other three city gates were still blocked to prevent the officers and soldiers from being attracted by the attention of the thieves and soldiers climbing the city wall, and smashing the gates open with giant logs.
In fact, judging from the behavior of the Liu thieves when they breached the city in the past, they all climbed and broke the city, and never entered the city after breaking through the gate from the outside.Because the city gate was abnormally thick, the thieves lacked a battering hammer, so they couldn't break through the city gate at all.
Around Si time, with the sound of horns, the thieves carried a long ladder and launched an attack from the southeast.
Different from the several times when the camp was offered to attack the city, the thieves who broke into the camp this time adopted the tactics of crowds.As soon as the horn sounded, thousands of thieves on both sides rushed towards the city wall, shouting.The thieves in the front row were all carrying dozens of ladders, including cloud ladders with iron hooks. After the ladders were built, the iron hooks could firmly hook the crenel to prevent the officers and soldiers from overturning the ladders.
The thieves on both sides sent out a large number of archers, about [-] in the south and more than a thousand archers in the east.
The long grass shed on the top of the city has been widened a lot to prevent the thieves from shooting obliquely with their bows and arrows.The huts have been fully watered, and there are many wooden barrels filled with sand.
Originally, there were only [-] archers and [-] musketeers in Huang Degong's department, and their long-range strike ability was slightly weaker.Chen Qiyu was careful, and after asking about the situation, he transferred [-] archers from Xuzhou soldiers.In addition to the two hundred archers in Shouzhou Guard, the number of archers in the city is nearly a thousand, which is barely enough.
To the south of Shouzhou City, hundreds of thieves carrying ladders ran in front, followed by a large group of thieves.When the thief carrying the ladder was about twenty steps away from the city wall, a trumpet sounded from the top of the city, and a row of archers suddenly appeared at the crenel. Instantly shot hundreds of thieves to the ground.
The archers of the officers and soldiers did not stop, and each shot seven or eight long arrows in one breath. Their arms were sore and weak before they retreated to the lower city to rest. Almost none of the hundreds of thieves carrying the ladders were standing.
The thief's archers arrived and stood about ten steps below the city. A group of 200 people was divided into two rows, with hundreds of shields in hand for defense.Hundreds of thieves set up ladders on the ground and continued to rush forward.
With an order, a small cloud of arrows formed by two hundred long arrows flew up to the top of the city, and the bandits with ladders quickly approached the city wall.With the continuous shooting of long arrows, the thieves set up dozens of ladders on the city wall.
After the first wave of archers was exhausted, the second wave of 200 people stepped forward to replace them, and some thieves had already boarded the ladder and began to climb.
The officers and soldiers on the top of the city seemed to be suppressed by bows and arrows, and there was no counterattack. When the second wave of archers tore down, thieves had already boarded the crenel.
The thieves were cruel this time. Just after the thieves ascended the city one after another, the third wave of archers still started shooting arrows.This was intended to indiscriminately kill and indiscriminately kill the thieves who ascended the city when the officers and soldiers fought hand-to-hand. Anyway, there are plenty of people on my side.
There was a burst of gunshots on the top of the city, and the gunners in the thatched shed fired their guns.150 musketeers were deployed in the southeast defense area of the city, in groups of 50, covering an area of more than [-] steps from the top of the city. As long as the thieves who climbed the city within this area, it was difficult to escape the fate of being shot.Even if there are occasional fish that slip through the net, it will be useless for a few people to go to the top of the city.
After three rounds of firecrackers were fired, there were not many thieves standing on the top of the city in this area, but the thieves still kept pouring into the city.
The musketeers quickly retreated to both sides of the hut after the round of fire, and all went down to the city to wait for orders after the third round of musket fire.
Although the bandits' third wave of arrow rain did not cause damage to the officers and soldiers, it also left enough time for the bandits to ascend the city. At this time, more than a hundred bandits had climbed up from the top of the city, and the archers stopped shooting.
The thieves who climbed the city saw that there was no one in the thatched shed in front of them, and they were about to split up and kill on both sides. A whistle was heard, followed by the sound of rumbling footsteps.
From the two sides of the city outside the range of the thieves' siege ladder, there was a phalanx of gun forests walking steadily towards the thieves who were climbing the city.
There are twenty rows of official and military formations in a row of ten people, and there is a step distance on both sides of the wide passage to facilitate maneuvering.
The soldiers in the front row leveled their spears, and the sharp tip of the spear gleamed coldly.The soldiers in the second row put their spears on the shoulders of the soldiers in the front row, while those in the back raised their guns.
After an order, the phalanx of the officers and soldiers on both sides stopped and shouted "Guard!" in unison, and then there was no more sound.
The strong sense of oppression brought by the phalanx made the thieves feel breathless.Suddenly, a bandit shouted and raised his knife to kill to one side. The other bandits also shouted and split up to kill to the two sides.
The officers and soldiers in the front row looked coldly at the rushing bandits, and the yelling and cursing of the bandits did not affect them in the slightest.
"prick!"
With an order, the soldiers in the front row lunged forward, exerting force at the waist, legs and arms at the same time, stabbing out their spears neatly, and the bandits who rushed to the front were either stabbed in the lower abdomen or thigh, and fell to the ground screaming. Blood immediately stained a small piece of the ground red.
The officers and soldiers quickly retracted their long spears, and then stabbed them out continuously following the orders. The long spears of more than one foot made it impossible for the thieves to get close.Occasionally, a clever bandit soldier rolled over to avoid the stabs in the front row, trying to rush over to fight in close quarters, but was stabbed obliquely by the officer's spear in the second row, and was directly nailed to the ground.
It takes several years to train a qualified archer. Huang Degong is a new army, so there are few archers.Xuzhou formed an army early, and there were more archers.Although the guards are not powerful enough, archery is an ancestral skill of many people, so there are 200 soldiers.Don't ask me why, I made this up.
