Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 443: Siege

() The fighting power of the Xiliang iron cavalry is unparalleled in the world. Even the strong and temporary Xianbei people on the grasslands will end with hatred, let alone the Youzhou army in the city.

Two days later, the camp of the Xiliang Army outside Beiping Township seemed to have been built. There were densely packed antlers outside the camp gate, and the patrolling soldiers were sparse. It seemed that they were not guarded on the outside, but in fact the camp was well-prepared. Immediately in place.

The next day, Huang Zhong led five thousand Xiliang troops to invite the Youzhou army in the city to fight.

Zhao Yun was dressed in a uniform and held a gentian spear. No one in the city dared to fight.

Huang Zhong cast his eyes on Guo Jia who was at the side, saw him nodding slightly, and ordered: "The three armies attack the city!"

A thousand cavalrymen were dispatched suddenly, and rushed towards Beiping City with the momentum of thunder. They skillfully set up their bows and arrows, and a dense rain of arrows shot towards the city wall.

The Youzhou army on the city could hardly raise their heads under such a dense rain of arrows. Some soldiers even hid behind the female wall, shaking all over. Ability varies, and some soldiers are ordinary people who have just put down their hoes, but their bodies are stronger.

After a shower of arrows, Shan Cong raised his head and looked down the city, but seeing another rain of arrows coming, he hurriedly hid in the city wall. Many soldiers had the same movements as Shan Cong, and they couldn't dodge. They were shot by the arrows and let out painful cries Howling, the three consecutive shots of the Xiliang Army made the Youzhou Army in the city dare not raise their heads at all.

Guo Jia of the Chinese army nodded slightly. Except for the battle with Jia Rong in Xianbei, he had never seen the Xiliang army attack the city. Create conditions for the siege.

It was also the first time for Huang Zhong to lead an army in person. Of course, he wanted to make a great contribution and not let others underestimate him. In terms of position, he was a battalion general, and there were three regiment generals in the team. Although he obeyed orders on the surface, he didn't know how Slander yourself.

With the cover of cavalry, a siege ladder was firmly erected on the not-so-high city wall of Beiping City.

The ten wells slowly moved towards the city wall. The soldiers of the Xiliang Army on the wells showed ferocious smiles and shot arrows at the city wall, taking the lives of the soldiers of the Youzhou Army. Unlike the Jinglan that Shan Cong has seen, this Jinglan has put a lot of effort into it. The outside of the wood is covered with iron sheets, so it is not afraid of ordinary fires, and the wells in the well The soldiers in the city were also tightly protected, leaving only holes one by one, and the archers shot arrows at the city. When they got close to the city wall, the soldiers on the well fence rushed up.

A siege ladder was erected next to Shan Cong. Shan Cong hurriedly got up and shouted: "The Xiliang army has begun to attack the city, fight!" Shan Cong was the first general who followed Yan Rou, and he was quite famous in the army. , Many soldiers obeyed the order and stood up to fight against the enemy.

A soldier had already stepped forward, raising the shield in his hand to block the arrows from the single servant.

Seeing that some soldiers were still hiding behind the female wall, Shan was burning with anger, pulled out the sword at his waist, and beheaded three soldiers and a hundred generals in a row. Weapons resist Xiliang army.

In the past, the Youzhou Army encountered all Xianbei troops attacking the city. How could there be such a sharp weapon as Jinglan? How terrifying it is to shoot arrows at the defenders on a galloping horse at high speed, Shan Cong also realized that the Xiliang Army is not in vain, relying on the cavalry alone, there are few opponents in the world.

The sparse arrows on the city had little effect on the Xiliang army, and every vital part of the siege soldiers was protected by armor.

A Xiliang army climbed up the city wall, and after killing four Youzhou army soldiers, he was killed by the swarming soldiers.

I was shocked from the bottom of my heart, the Xiliang Army's reputation for bravery is indeed not in vain, an ordinary soldier has such combat power.

More and more soldiers of the Xiliang Army climbed onto the city wall, especially with the approach of Jinglan, the soldiers could easily open up a space on the city, creating opportunities for Paoze on the ladder.

Soldiers defending the other city gates were hastily dispatched and resisted to the death before blocking the Xiliang Army's first wave of attack.

During the morning siege, the Xiliang army lost more than 700 soldiers, but the defenders paid a price of nearly [-]. It seems that such a loss should not have happened to the defenders.

After the Xiliang army withdrew, Shan Cong also frowned and thought deeply. He was indeed a famous general under Yan Rou's command. When the Xiliang army attacked the city, they were severely injured, so that they could easily climb the city wall. As long as they make good use of the advantages of the city, the Xiliang army will pay a greater price if they want to go to the city again.

But when the cavalry shot arrows, Shan Cong was a little helpless. There are many soldiers with excellent archery skills, but the equipment of these cavalry, let Shan Cong have no intention of doing it. The uniform armor protects important parts, and it is difficult to cause casualties. I really can't imagine why the Xiliang Army has so many sophisticated equipment. An ordinary ladder is made of iron, and those wells want to be burned with rockets. It's a fantasy. Is it possible that Jia Rong is so rich.

Huang Zhong stroked the beard under his chin, holding the pearl of wisdom in his hand, confident that it only takes two days to take Beiping, and the county will be completely exposed to the advance of the Xiliang army.

With such casualties, Shan Cong hurriedly sent someone to seek help again from Xian Yuyin in the county city. There were 1 defenders in the city, and the other side only had more than [-] people, and they repeatedly asked for help.

Shan Cong's lieutenant general persuaded: "General, I have heard that the Xiliang army loves the people, why don't you send the people to help defend the city, and see if they will accept the unarmed people?"

Shan Cong rejoiced and said: "This is a great gesture, if you can keep Beiping Town, I will definitely ask for credit for you in front of the general."

After Huang Zhong saw the scene in Beiping Town, the corners of his eyes twitched a few times, and he called out to be a commoner, relying on his own strength to get to the present step by step, and now Shan Cong actually drove innocent people up the city wall.

"General, what do you think?" Guo Jia cast his eyes on Huang Zhong, who was the main general of the march this time.

Huang Zhong shook his head lightly and said, "Let's not attack the city today!"

Seeing Jia Rong's unscrupulous killings on the grassland, Guo Jia seemed to disapprove of this kind of womanly benevolence, "General, the Youzhou army in the city is not strong enough. It only takes one day to capture Beiping, and it will be later." Change."

"Our army has always loved the people like their sons, so we have won the support of the people. How can we disregard the lives of the people in the city." Huang Zhong said resolutely: "Even if the general blames him, he will not change his mind."

Seeing that the Xiliang army did not attack the city, Shan Cong was secretly relieved.

Three days later, the Xiliang army still stood still, thinking that they had grasped the lifeblood of the Xiliang army, and only intensified their efforts to arrest the people in the city and climbed to the top of the city.

When Xian Yuyin received Shan Cong's distress letter, he didn't dare to neglect, so he dispatched troops and generals to Beiping.

On the battlefield, a cavalry cavalry, about five hundred in number, led by a large horse with a scimitar, held a bright silver spear, and was dressed in solid armor. Sign up with a big "Zhao" character!

Huang Zhong guessed that the city would definitely ask Xianyu Yin for help, so he ordered Zhao Yun's cavalry to wander around the battlefield to block the rescue army, which won Guo Jia's approval, and the complaints about Huang Zhong's failure to order the attack on the city were also alleviated a lot. Weakening the power of the county is the key to winning Daijun.

"General, there are enemy troops ten miles ahead, and they are setting up camp."

Zhao Yun looked up at the gradually darkening sky, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth, "Everyone hide well, try to shoot the opponent's scouts, and don't reveal the position of our army."

"No!" The soldier clasped his fists and left.

In terms of combat effectiveness, the scouts in the army are the strongest. When they step into the battlefield, they will fight against death all the time, and those who are inexperienced and have low martial arts skills will gradually be eliminated.

In the middle of the night, Zhao Yun appeared in front of the Youzhou army camp like a ghost, looking at the camp in front of him, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Marching locally, the soldiers were only temporarily stationed, and the Youzhou Army did not take too many precautions.

"Kill!" With a flick of the bright silver gun, all five hundred cavalrymen mobilized, parted the antlers, and charged at the Youzhou military camp from all directions.

A soldier on patrol was about to shout, but found that he could only make a hoarse sound, and a sharp arrow pierced through his throat at some point.

Zhao Yun put away his bow and arrow, held his spear high, and followed the team into the Youzhou Army.

At this time, the soldiers of the Youzhou Army were sleeping. When they heard the movement in the camp, they ran out of the camp shirtless and blankly. , into one piece.

The marching general of the Youzhou Army was Liang Cheng, a general under Xian Yuyin. People, Liang Cheng looked at the chaotic camp, the muscles on his face trembled slightly, he was plotted against by the enemy after he failed to win the battle, what is this?

Zhao Yun frowned slightly, and led more than fifty people towards the big banner with the word "Liang" on the tall tree in the middle of the camp.

More than fifty people rushed into the panicked soldiers, causing waves of waves. Although Liang Cheng had some influence in the army, in a hurry, the soldiers still remembered fighting in formations. Seeing the cavalry approaching, they hurriedly avoided. No matter how much Liang Cheng shouted, it would have no effect.

Seeing that the soldiers who had just gathered together were dispersed, Liang Cheng's only sliver of reason disappeared, and he slapped his horse and killed Zhao Yun.

The two generals compared each other, and after ten closes, the bright silver spear pierced the Youzhou army brave general's throat, and fell to the ground weakly.

Two thousand reinforcements were killed, wounded, and wounded. Zhao Yun ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and continue to wander on the battlefield.

In the middle of the night, under the lights, Huang Zhong had a sad expression on his face. He never wanted to take Beiping Town in a single battle, but seeing the innocent and fearful eyes of the people on the top of the city, he couldn't bear it.
