Reborn in the Three Kingdoms

text

The breakthrough of the Goguryeo people aroused the ferocity hidden deep in the hearts of the Huns. The soldiers of the Huns fought more and more bravely, pushing back the bridgeheads that the Goguryeo people had finally opened one by one.The Goguryeo people continued to crazily attack the top of the city.The two sides are in a see-saw situation.

The Goguryeo army kept surging towards the city wall, wave after wave, and the sound of Goguryeo's war drums became louder and louder than before. Their shouts were so crazy, with billowing black smoke overhead, surging towards the top of the city .However, their increasingly frantic attacks failed to open up the situation. After a burst of frantic attacks, only a piece of corpses remained.

The soldiers of the Xiongnu Legion felt an unprecedented pressure, and everyone was gritting their teeth to support them. Many people's movements of waving their swords had become a conditioned reflex.

With a sound of 'crash', a pot of boiling oil happened to be dumped on the city rushing vehicle that was hitting the city gate, and several Goguryeo soldiers who were splashed by the boiling oil danced and danced here and there.A torch was thrown down immediately, and landed on the roof of the city rush car, and the flames burst into flames.The Goguryeo soldiers' chariots that were still on fire hit the city gate that seemed to be crumbling again, and then they found that the chariots were on fire and fled away one after another. [

At the same time, the attack momentum of the Goguryeo assault troops who attacked the city through the ladder has weakened, and they are no longer as brave and crazy as before. They often retreat when they encounter a major blow.

A moment later, the golden bell for the retreat sounded in Goguryeo's central army.Hearing this voice, the soldiers on both sides could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The green tide receded quickly, and the extremely tired soldiers of the Huns panted heavily, and many of them sat down on the spot.There are still many fires on the top and bottom of the city wall, and many soldiers of the Huns are busy putting out the fire on the city wall.All kinds of siege equipment were scattered on the battlefield. There were a number of smashed city rush vehicles crowded around the city gate, and another city rush vehicle was burning blazingly; The ladders were erected on the top of the city, and the soldiers of the Huns used hooks and sickles to knock down these ladders one by one.The most people left on the battlefield are people, to be precise, dead people. There are piles of corpses of Goguryeo soldiers under the city wall, and some black figures are mixed with them. They are soldiers of the Huns who fell from the city wall; The situation above was similar, soldiers from both sides were mixed together, soldiers from the Xiongnu Legion were cleaning up the corpses, throwing the corpses of the Goguryeo people directly off the city wall, and carefully lifted the corpses of their comrades down the city wall.The original earthy yellow city wall has completely changed its color, and the blackened traces are mixed with patches of blood. Looking from a distance, it is shocking.The setting sun sprinkles its last colors on the earth, and the setting sun is like blood.

Guan Yu was patrolling the city wall, stopping from time to time to check the injuries of the wounded soldiers, and the soldiers saluted Guan Yu one after another.After turning around, Guan Yu stopped at the gate tower, standing by the wall.Guan Yu looked at the Goguryeo army that was retreating, and frowned. He never thought that the offensive and defensive battle on the first day would be so fierce.Looking up at the setting sun in the west, he couldn't help murmuring: "I didn't expect it to be evening so soon!"

The Goguryeo army retreated to the camp, exhausted from a day of bloody battle.When Tie Pohan returned to the tent, the tent was very quiet, everyone was frowning and no one spoke.

"General Tie, it's impossible to attack the city like this!" Li Chenghuan was the first to speak.This is the first time Li Chenghuan has spoken to Tie Pohan so politely.Maybe it was the day's tragic battle that made him very pessimistic about the development of the battle.

Tie Pohan thought for a moment and then said: "With our current siege equipment, it is really difficult to break through the city of Yang County in a short time! It will also lose a lot of troops in vain!"

Tie Pohan raised his head and asked Li Chenghuan: "What do you think, His Royal Highness?"

Li Chenghuan said: "We must urge the heavy equipment to be delivered as soon as possible!"

Iron Poker nodded, and then

He raised his voice and called out: "Come here!" A soldier immediately appeared in the big tent.Tie Pohan ordered: "Immediately send an order to the transportation team, and the heavy equipment must be transported before sunset tomorrow! Otherwise, it will be dealt with by military law!" The soldiers agreed and retreated immediately.

Tie Pohan sat down on the commander-in-chief seat, glanced at Jin Yang standing on the right, and asked, "Has the number of our army's casualties come out?" Jin Yang replied, "Reporting to the general, General Li is counting the casualties below. The number, I believe it will be reported to the general in a while!" "Yeah!" Tie Pohan nodded.

There was silence in the commander's account, Tie Pohan was considering the next siege tactics.

While Tie Pohan was thinking, Li Li came in from the outside, clasped his fists at Tie Pohan and said, "General, the casualties of our army have been counted!"

Tie Po Han nodded, motioning for Li Li to continue.

Li Li took out a bamboo slip from his bosom and said: "Our army suffered over [-] casualties, of which over [-] were killed!"

Tie Pohan frowned slightly. Although he had expected the number of casualties, he was still a little shocked by Li Li's report.Li Chenghuan asked: "How many casualties are there on the Han side?"

Li Li thought for a moment, and then replied: "It is estimated that there are less than 2000 people!" Li Li's estimate is not very different from the facts. Nearly a thousand people. [

Tie Pohan thought for a moment, then raised his head and said to the people in the tent: "Everyone, go down and rest!"

The three saluted Tie Pohan and withdrew from the tent.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

When the time came to the next day, Guan Yu increased his troops on the front and stood ready.However, the Goguryeo people remained silent all day.

"General, why didn't the Goguryeo people come to attack the city today? They were crazy yesterday!" Deputy General Yang Xian asked.

Guan Yu smiled faintly, glanced at Yang Xian who was puzzled, and asked, "Isn't it good that the Goguryeo people didn't attack the city?"

Yang Xian was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.

Guan Yu thought for a moment, then said to Yang Xian with a solemn expression: "The order will go on, and each department will take turns to rest at night! The patrol team will be doubled!" "Yes!" Yang Xian clasped his fists to promise.

It was a very quiet night, nothing happened.

At dawn, Guan Yu, who was resting in the city gate tower, was woken up by Lieutenant General Yang Xian.

"What happened?" Guan Yu asked anxiously.

Yang Xian said: "General, come out and have a look!" Yang Xian looked very urgent.

Guan Yu immediately raised the Qinglong Yanyue Saber and followed Yang Xian out of the city gate and to the wall.The city gate tower, as the name suggests, is a loft-style building located on the city wall above the city gate. It usually has several floors. In addition to its defensive function, it is also a resting place for the generals guarding the city. If there is an emergency, the generals can Respond immediately.

"General, please look over there!" Yang Xian pointed to the south-west direction.Guan Yu followed the direction pointed by Yang Xian, and vaguely saw a group of troops slowly entering the Goguryeo barracks. Among the group of troops, there were many very large things that made low and unpleasant roars as they advanced.Although the light is not very good at the moment, Guan Yu has already judged what those things are.

Guan Yu frowned slightly, and said calmly: "It seems that the enemy has already transported heavy equipment such as flying towers and giant crossbows!" There will be an attack in the morning!" Yang Xian promised.

When Yang Xian was about to go down to deliver the order, Guan Yu stopped him, "Wait! Send a letter to the outside of the city, telling them to prepare for the attack!"A moment later, a carrier pigeon flew towards a woods a few miles east of the city.

The sun soon showed its face, and there was movement in the Goguryeo camp.

Just like yesterday, the siege force composed of Goguryeo infantry slowly approached Yang County, with tens of thousands of cavalry covering the flanks.The difference from yesterday is that

, As the main force of the siege, there are a lot more infantry than the day before yesterday, about 8 to [-]. The Goguryeo people seem to want to attack Yangxian with all their might today.In addition, there were nearly [-] flying towers, archery towers, and heavy crossbows twice the size of ordinary crossbows in the siege troops of Goguryeo. This heavy crossbow is not only huge in size, but also more terrifying in power. The spear and arrow are four meters long, thick as a forearm, and can shoot three hundred paces away. Ordinary wooden city gates simply cannot withstand a few rounds of shooting from it. Even if they hit the city wall, they can still cause considerable damage to the city wall. It is sometimes more powerful than a catapult.

Looking at the various heavy siege equipment accompanying the army, Iron Poker showed a cruel smile.

Guan Yu deployed nearly [-] troops on the wall facing the enemy. There were only [-] defenders on the other three walls, and some troops were in the city as reserves.

The Goguryeo army stopped when it was about [-] steps away from the city wall. The sergeants operating the heavy crossbows became busy. Under the escort of the cavalry, they went to the east and west sides of Yang County respectively.These two armies are obviously the Goguryeo army that is going to support the main attack direction during the siege. [

Seeing the enemy's deployment, Guan Yu immediately made corresponding adjustments, and ordered the reserve troops to divide 3000 people into two teams to reinforce the east and west walls.

With a dull sound of breaking through the air, the soldiers of the Huns defending the city wall saw a terrifying black shadow flying towards the top of the city. "Get down!" Someone yelled, and all the soldiers immediately fell down. Almost at the same time, there was a deafening loud noise, and everyone felt as if the entire city wall was shaking, and clods of dirt and bricks flew up. , and then it rained down on the top and bottom of the city, and the crackling sound continued. ! ~!
