Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

Chapter 163: Attack the city, crazy Turks!

Hearing this, the man in armor burst into tears.

He moved his lips and said tremblingly: "Dad, what will you do when I leave?"

"Hey, brat, when your father and I entered the world, you were still not born."

"How can I live without allowing a brat like you to act blindly?"

The lame man picked up a broom and drove him away, and then said: "Go to the North City Gate quickly. If you don't go, I will pretend that I don't care about this child."

"father…."

The armored man could no longer hold back his tears and flowed down completely.

He wiped away the wet tears with his hands, then took three steps back and knelt down on his knees.

"Knock through, knock through,"

One ringing after another kept coming.

Seeing his child acting like this, the lame man burst into tears.

"Smelly boy..."

"Dad, I don't know whether I will live or die. If I don't come back, I hope you will take good care of yourself and be proud of your son."

"You brat, you're talking a lot of nonsense." The lame man laughed angrily.

Then, he turned around and said angrily: "Gungun, hurry up and go to the south city gate. How come there is so much disgusting."

………………………….
The above examples have occurred in countless places in Yecheng.

Except for a few insiders, no one knew who the enemy was. They only knew that Yecheng was about to perish.

This is not because Li Dajun and others are not telling the truth, but from a military point of view, they are afraid that speaking out will cause a greater shock.

After all, the last incident on the Wei River is still vivid in our minds, when the Turks invaded Chang'an and frightened the courage of countless people.

In the minds of many Han people, Turks have become synonymous with invincibility.

If the truth was told at the beginning and it was a threat from the Turkic cavalry, then maybe...
Many people will rush out of the southern city frantically to snatch food, so that Chang'an City will be automatically destroyed due to civil strife before it welcomes the enemy.

It would be better to announce that Yecheng is under siege from all sides and fight to the bitter end with no way to escape, so that the people will completely become united in their hatred for the enemy!

In the art of war, the purpose of encircling three and missing one is to destroy the morale of the soldiers in the besieged city and make them think that they are not in a dead end and that there is still the possibility of escape.

However, once it is besieged from all sides and there is no way to retreat, then... morale will rise to an unimaginable level! !

Obviously, the people of Yecheng volunteered to join the army, which was something Li Dajun and others could not have imagined.

Li Dajun and other officials underestimated the Han people's dependence on this land.

There are too many of them who are willing to shed their blood for this land.

Li Dajun himself regretted ordering people to blow thirteen horns, but at this point, he could only make one mistake!

The threat of the Turkic cavalry was indeed great. Tens of thousands of people were killed in the battles at Changsu City and Qingzhou Pass in the north. It was no exaggeration to say that it was comparable to the battle to destroy the city!

at the same time.

At this moment, the north gate of Yecheng has been fully opened.

Comrades from Qingzhou Pass and Changsu City, the densely packed carriage team, although they looked shabby, their faces were dark and dusty, but there was no confusion in the formation.

Under the leadership of the guard captains, we entered Yecheng.

Everyone, all the carriage teams, began to enter the city in an orderly manner.

The local Yecheng soldiers guarding the city gate looked at the panicked and frightened faces. The moment they entered the city, they all showed new sunny smiles, and their hearts were touched.

I fled all the way south for a whole day. I was already hungry, and this happened again.

It can be said,
They were struggling with hunger and cold every moment, and wild beasts often attacked them in force.

On the way to escape.

Every time there was movement around, I was afraid that the Turkic cavalry was coming.

They had seen such a scene, which almost trampled the entire earth to an earthquake, making countless people's hearts tremble, and they could only live in fear.

Every time the soldiers fought back, their arrows were shot to the point of numbness, and their swords were swung to the point of weakness. After the battle, everything as far as the eye could see was covered with sores.

The surrounding flowers, plants and trees were dead and rotten due to the fighting, and were stained with the blood of countless people.

The power of the Turkic cavalry almost cast a shadow in their hearts, thinking they were invincible.

The people fleeing in the north all feel that they will die in the next moment, as if they are in a constant death crisis, which has already made them exhausted, overwhelmed and full of despair.

But at this moment, when arriving at Yecheng!
Hope is rekindled on their faces and eyes!
Yecheng is the heart of Qingzhou in the Tang Dynasty. The people in the north will only choose to blindly believe in the soldiers of Yecheng. They believe that Yecheng, with its outstanding land and outstanding people, can definitely defeat such enemies!

At this moment, on the top wall of the city, the generals who had fled the army were also approaching. Including the man before, a total of eleven people came to the wall.

There was also unconcealed fear in their eyes.

At this time, from a barracks at the north gate of Ye City, closest to the city gate and on the line between the sea and the sky, the sound of vast footsteps suddenly rose up.

Even though they were hundreds of meters away, they could hear it clearly.

There, the figures gradually became clearer and the sounds became louder and louder. At the end, the local soldiers of Yecheng with resolute faces appeared in front of them one after another.

Looking at their faces, there is no wave in the ancient well.

Just like an army forged with iron and blood, it illuminates the hearts of desperate generals little by little, preventing them from despair and starting to have full confidence in Yecheng.

Likewise, it also brings an unprecedented sense of pressure to everyone.

Closer, this army is getting closer.

Finally, under the field of vision and above the horizon, an extremely neat and disciplined army appeared in front of everyone.

The strictness of this army is something that other major armies in the north do not have. It is an elite army that truly belongs only to Ye City.

All the soldiers guarding the northern city wall nervously clenched their weapons and looked into the distance, their pupils contracted, they had difficulty breathing, and their mountain jumps accelerated.

Some timid soldiers even had their legs trembling and their faces turned pale.

The previous wars, including the Turks' invasion of the country, were all based on Youzhou.

Youzhou is the main battlefield, but here in Qingzhou, peace seems to be the main theme since Li Yuan registered as emperor.

Yecheng, located in the hinterland of Qingzhou, is extremely safe.

In the past, it was too safe to be serious.

Many young people of this generation have never been on the battlefield, and those responsible for guarding the city walls are the new recruits among the new recruits.

At most, they followed one hunting team out of the city and hunted rabbits around Yecheng.

When have you ever seen such an iron-blooded scene?

Have you ever seen such an army with murderous intent on its face?

Even the generals of Yecheng, Li Dajun, Li Haiying, Vice General Li and others, looked slightly shaken at this moment, and their hearts suddenly accelerated.

They haven't taken action for too long, and their former enthusiasm has gradually cooled down due to their pampering.

But unlike them, all the generals who had escaped took a step together and looked at the endless empty land outside Ye City, as if there was something terrible there.

Only by experiencing the kind of battle that is almost desperate can one understand their mood at the moment.

The Turkic cavalry, which can blacken the entire earth, swept in, and they could only fight!
That is the madness of not stopping until death, even if you want to kill even a Turkic cavalry! !
The battle damage was so horrific that it basically took several Han people to kill a Turkic cavalry.Dying together has become the highest honor for their soldiers.

In this kind of battle, death is ignored. When you are afraid, it is better to worry about not being able to kill one more Turkic cavalry to reduce the pressure of the city being ravaged.

"Turkish dog!!"

A northern general roared wildly, his eyes were bloodshot, almost crazy, and his hatred was overwhelming.

He hates it so much!

His son, wife, and descendants all fell in this bloody war. His only son died on the road because there was no extra food. Only he, Xun Yan, survived.

Even to this day, he still clearly remembers the look in his wife's eyes when she was dying.

Those are eyes full of despair!
It’s the despair of not wanting to die, but having no choice but to die unwillingly!

This look tortured him night after night, making him almost crazy and wanting to commit suicide.

He was shouting crazily and furiously. Next to him, there was a famous general from the north. He also had overwhelming hatred and terrifying murderous intent, which was almost integrated into his soul, filling the air with crazy murderous intent.
.
…………………….
Not long after they gathered, they began to mobilize their troops.

Since the deployment of troops and generals began, the entire city fell into a little tranquility.

Everyone knows this tranquility, it is just the tranquility before the storm.

Three hours later.

Shortly after the deployment of troops and generals was completed.

A scout's voice sounded: "General, the Turks are coming!!"

After the words fell, the expressions of everyone present changed.

Sure enough, the next second, they saw the black Turkic cavalry appearing on the plains of the sky.

Followed by.

Behind them were Turkic cavalry that stretched as far as the eye could see, almost blackening the earth.

"Catapult, release!"

The moment they appeared, the voices of Li Dajun's lieutenants resounded throughout Yecheng.

As soon as the sound fell, huge rocks rose into the sky with huge flames and smoke.

If you are lucky enough to be near Yecheng, when countless people look up, they can see huge flaming stones quickly rising into the sky, reaching a height of more than 20 meters in the sky, and rushing towards the distance.

The first wave of attacks on Yecheng has begun!

It is a truly all-round, precise and full-saturation attack!

In an instant, all the flaming stones flew rapidly, and within ten seconds, they rushed straight towards the bottom of the wave of Turkic cavalry.

Boom!Boom! !

For a moment, the earth in the distance continued to make heavy muffled sounds, and in just the blink of an eye, countless dust flew up.

On the city wall, all the soldiers felt a burning sensation on their faces, making them couldn't help but squint their eyes.

The wave of Turkic iron cavalry at the front was so stupid that it was instantly dug into a huge hole.

But the Turkic cavalry behind them were not afraid at all. Like robots, they stepped on the places where their compatriots were killed.

They are extremely crazy.

"Be prepared to meet the first round of attack by the Turkic cavalry in Ye City!"

Li Dajun looked solemn and stared into the distance.

As usual, when the first round of defenses is breached, the archers' attack will follow.

Sure enough, Li Dajun didn't need to say anything, his lieutenants shouted loudly: "Archers, shoot!!"

In an instant, countless arrows soared into the sky, like a volley of thousands of arrows, completely embellishing the sky into pure black.

Stab la la!
Arrows penetrated countless Turkic cavalry, but they still could not stop their progress.

The second line of defense was also lost?

Li Dajun's heart sank. The archers could be said to be their last resort.

At this time, the soldiers standing on the city wall to face the enemy saw the intertwining of blood and flesh under the city wall, and some of the recruits could not help but vomit.

There were some new recruits who didn't vomit, but were still holding on like crazy.

"Is this...a war?"

“Life is cheap, war is endlessly angry.”

A patient with a heart disease looked at the miserable situation, his eyes flashing with fear.

then.

His fearful eyes gradually became crazy, his eyes were red, and he shot the bow and arrow in his hand even harder.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!!"

This was the only crazy idea left in his mind.

This is a battle for the survival of the race, a battle for the survival of Yecheng, there is no mercy!

Either you die or I die!
"All teams obey orders, Turks are about to climb up and start hand-to-hand combat, prepare to meet the enemy!"

Li Dajun ordered to go down again.

Soon, his order was passed down through the lieutenants.

It was also at the moment when the lieutenants finished speaking,
The soldiers on the city wall clenched their weapons and looked at them with crazy eyes.

It's still time for the Turks to enter the city.

On the city walls of Ye City, teams were preparing for hand-to-hand combat. The only thing they could do was to check their weapons and the surrounding situation over and over again.

While waiting, there were only louder vibrations coming from the ground, and black shadows began to gradually appear in the field of vision.

All these told them that the enemy was close at hand.

The enemy is getting closer and closer, and the black tide dyes all the ground in sight black.

They are so densely packed that they are connected by a line between sea and sky, connecting infinite distances. You can’t see the end at a glance. They are so densely packed that it is shocking.

many….
There are just too many….
So much so that one cannot see how to win.

I don’t even know how many Turks there are behind me!
As for Yecheng, they only had a few thousand defenders, and including those who fled from the north, they only had more than 8000.

If the common people are included, there will be tens of thousands of soldiers, but they are all untrained soldiers, and their abilities cannot be taken seriously.

now.

Li Dajun looked down with a solemn expression.

"General Qin, is this the war that Changsu City and Qingzhou Pass experienced in contact?"

General Qin looked at the dark Turks and felt powerless in his heart.

"I don't know if Qingzhou Pass was broken too quickly, but Changsu City is indeed like that!"

There was deep panic in General Qin's eyes.

He really didn't understand why the Turks attacked so frantically. Are they planning something else?
