Chapter 107 Offense and Defense
puff~
Wu Chifei stabbed the opponent's soldier, but before he could retract his gun, a knife came from the side. Wu Chifei took a step sideways and ran into the opponent's arms. He wrapped his arms around the opponent's arm and pinched it, directly breaking the opponent's arm.

There was no time to finish the attack, so he kicked up a knife and forced the opponent's soldier away. When he took the time to pull out the waist knife, he took advantage of the situation and opened the chest of the opponent's soldier.

From the corner of his eye, he saw Yuan Bing slashing at his subordinates with a knife, Wu Chifei rushed over and knocked the Yuan Bing off the wall.

"Kill it~"

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty rushed towards the place where the ladders of the Yuan army were built. The soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty who were able to climb the city were all brave men and did not give in even a step.

Under the city, a Yuan army was rushing towards the city and was about to reach the city.

On the west city wall, the defenders poured kerosene and then threw torches to light the Yuan army's ladder. On the east wall, the Yuan army's ladder was about to fall. A group of Song soldiers raised the push rod and pushed the ladder down with all their strength.

Arakhan suddenly sent troops out of Yanzhou, failed to attack Xi'an County, and immediately turned to a strong attack. After more than [-] days, he finally climbed the city wall.

However, before the reinforcements could reach the city, the Song army had already cleared the city and the Yuan army ascended first. Then they cut off the ladder and defended the attack.

"Decree, continue to attack the city without rest tonight!" Arakhan said coldly.

Immediately, a group of 2000 people came out and rushed to the city wall carrying long ladders.

Wu Chifei shouted: "Prepare wood and rocks, prepare poles!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Yuan army under the city had already started firing arrows.

The Song army lay down behind the city wall and used shields to cover it. Even so, there were still occasional screams.

There was no counterattack from Chengtou.

The arrows are exhausted and there is nothing to do.

Seeing that the Yuan army was about to rush to the city, Wu Chifei shouted: "Get up and prepare to engage the enemy."

The Yuan army rushed to the bottom of the city, raised the long ladder high, and lowered it towards the top of the city.

"Hold on!" Song Jun raised the pole, but failed to catch it. He watched helplessly as the long ladder fell.

"Smash!" At the critical moment, a group of people rushed up carrying wood and rocks and smashed them against the ladder.

When Yuan Bing saw this, he hurriedly jumped down the ladder to avoid it. Those who were slow would naturally be hit.

Another person grabbed a brick, but before he could take action, he was shot to the ground by a bow and arrow.

When the arrows were exhausted, the same was true for rolling wood and beating stones. The people demolished their houses to support the defense of the city.

The Yuan army also had a difficult time. We can see their situation from the ant attack using simple long ladders.

At this time, a support pole stretched out from the side and pushed the long ladder down from the side.

It’s just that twenty long ladders cannot be defended after all.

"Kill~" a Mongolian tenth commander yelled wildly, jumped onto the city wall, slashed and killed the Song soldiers on the opposite side, and another person jumped out behind him.

"Kill!" Wu Chifei came forward and killed the two men with the help of the soldiers on the left and right.

However, after fighting for half a day, all the armies were exhausted, and the Yuan army was a fresh force, and they could not stop it after all.

"Kill~" The last reserve team in the city came to kill.

To this day, the [-] defenders in the city have suffered more than [-] casualties, and the civilians who helped defend the city have suffered more than [-] casualties.

Basically, the limit has been reached, and without the arrival of reinforcements, Xi'an County will inevitably fall.

Because there are many soldiers in the Yuan Dynasty.

With the arrival of Arakan, there were [-] Mongolian troops, [-] Han troops in the north, [-] new vassals, and [-] civilians.

In more than [-] days, all the civilians were killed and wounded, and the newly attached army suffered more than half of its casualties, but the defenders were also depleted.

The battle continued until the sun set in the west. The Yuan army could not hold on any longer and retreated like a tide.

More than half of the two thousand troops were lost.

Arahan didn't even look at it, and shouted: "Come on, behead all the centurions and thousands of captains, and kill the remaining ones one by one!"

Immediately, the bodyguards surrounded the defeated soldiers and started killing people.

Severe punishments are the only way to lead the new vassal army, otherwise Arahan would have retreated long ago no matter how capable he was of fighting.

The sequelae are of course serious, and the newly attached army is probably full of resentment.

It's a pity that Hu Feng is missing, otherwise Alakhan would have run away.

"Bah, it's this move again!" Wu Chifei sat down on the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and shouted, "You even gasped!"

Commander Hu Linru shouted: "Control, there are only more than 200 people left."

A soldier asked: "Tongzhi, has the imperial court abandoned us?"

"How is it possible?" Wu Chifei categorically objected and said: "Deputy General Manager Yi Bo Yuntian, how can you abandon me and ignore me? I have said it before, hold on for twenty days, reinforcements will arrive tomorrow!"

Hu Linru saw that another Yuan army had left the camp, and said with a miserable smile, "I'm afraid we won't be able to wait until tomorrow." "You have to wait until the sun comes out before you die!" Wu Chifei said fiercely.

All were silent.

Sacrificing one's life to serve the country is easy to say but difficult to do.

Wu Chifei said: "Think about the tyranny of the Tartar dogs. If they drive straight in, every kid in the family will be lucky to be a slave. Are you willing?"

"I don't want to!" More than [-] people came forward, carrying not only bricks and wood, but also kitchen knives and sickles.

The leading man said: "The Tartar dogs killed more than [-] people in Xi'an County. We must take revenge no matter what!"

His name is Duan Guangjin, a blacksmith in this county. When the Yuan army was raging, he was spared because of his identity as a craftsman. When Ali retreated from The Hague, he was robbed and waited for an opportunity to escape.

"The general asked me to repair the weapons. Now that the weapons are repaired and there is no one to use them, he brought the villagers up. They had to kill a few Tartars." Duan Guangjin said, holding up a sledgehammer.

"Kill the Tartar dogs!" the people shouted.

Just as Wu Chifei was about to speak, he saw the red flag rising on the west city tower. He was shocked and said, "No, the Tartars have gone to the west of the city."

"Control, support quickly, I will guard this place." Hu Linru said hurriedly.

There are insufficient troops everywhere, so we can only demolish the east wall to make up for the west wall.

However, as soon as Wu Chifei stood up, he saw another Yuan army coming out of the camp, one of them went straight, and the other went around to the east.

Nearly half of these Yuan troops were wearing armor and were all Mongolian soldiers or northern Han soldiers.

"Control, what should I do?" Hu Linru was really panicked.

Now there are only 200 people from Beicheng in the city, but you can think with your toes that if the Beicheng defenders leave, the Yuan army will come immediately.

Don't ask, just ask because there are too many soldiers and you will be willful.

Wu Chifei gritted his teeth and said, "Tell all the ministries to gather in Fuguifang and prepare for street fighting!"

"Wei." Hu Linru immediately went to deliver the order.

"General, don't you want to defend anymore?" Duan Blacksmith was shocked.

Wu Chifei said: "The city wall can no longer be defended. We will fight to the death in Fuguifang!"

"General, no!" Blacksmith Duan begged, "If the Tartar dogs come in, they will definitely massacre the city. Why not fight?"

"Yes, General, we are not afraid of death."

"Everyone, young and old, is in the city. We can't let the Tartar dogs come in."

"At the risk of our lives, we must not let the Tartar dogs come in."

Seeing the people's anger, Wu Chifei hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Hu Linru, assign 50 people to each wall, and be sure to hold it!"

"control……"

"Execute the military order!" Wu Chifei shouted.

"Wei." Hu Linru nodded and went to the other three walls.

Wu Chifei inserted his sword back, picked up a gun, and said, "Everyone, fight for your lives."

"Fight!" The people looked for weapons and prepared to fight.

Wu Chifei knew it was over.

How can the common people be the opponents of the Yuan army's elite without training?There was no one to organize them, and they couldn't even escape the first wave of arrow rain.

"Manager, it's not that I don't obey orders, but there is really nothing I can do." Wu Chifei lamented in his heart.

Why are the people of Xi'an County willing to pay such a high price?Because they had been ravaged by the Yuan army once, no one wanted to experience it a second time.

At this time, it was already dark, and the Yuan army outside the city had to stop and prepare torches and other items, which gave the Song army a chance to breathe.

It's hard to say anything else, but at least I can eat something and drink some water to regain my strength.

Talk is better than nothing.

Soon, the torches of the Yuan army were lit, ready to go.

Arahan said: "Send an order to the whole army not to seal their swords after entering the city. Anyone who resists in Quzhou will be massacred."

"Long live the general!" Yuan Jun immediately became excited.

The fierce fighting for days has long caused resentment to rise to the sky, and the people of Xi'an County are undoubtedly an excellent target to vent their anger.

This was also a common method used by the Yuan army - to massacre cities to intimidate resistance. As a result, not one of the tens of millions of people in Sichuan and Shu was left alive, and only seven people in Changzhou survived.
