Soldiers come to the world

Chapter 528 Fierce battle in Chengdu

Wu Yi smiled wryly in his heart, attacking the city at night, they didn't have the training in this area, so he didn't know if they could hold him, but he didn't show it, and said to Liu Xun, "We have [-] elite soldiers, and we have enough food and supplies. Hold on, it's just a knife and an arrow, the young master is too dangerous in the outer city, please go to the inner city to supervise the battle!"

Chengdu, like other big cities, is also divided into inner city and outer city, but after all, Chengdu has not encountered war for a hundred years, and the defenders do not have the experience of fighting the enemy with the Jingzhou army.

In fact, Liu Jing also realized the serious consequences of the connection between the inner and outer cities after the first time Chaisang fell, so he rebuilt it. Since there has never been a war in Chengdu, he naturally did not realize the need to separate the inner and outer cities. .

Seeing that the war was approaching, Liu Xun did not dare to stay in the outer city, so he bowed and saluted, "I will thank General Wu for everything!"

"Go, son! I will do my best."

Wu Yi looked at Liu Xun's back and hurried away. He couldn't help but sighed softly. Their biggest problem now is not the lack of food and grass, but the lack of popular support. They wanted to recruit people, but they only recruited thousands of people in ten days. The people in Chengdu were not willing to sacrifice their lives for Liu Xun. In the final analysis, it was because Liu Xun's name was not right and his words were not right, and the people did not recognize him as the lord of Yizhou.

Since Liu Zhang's death, people in Yizhou were in chaos, and all counties and counties were watching the situation. Even the [-] troops in the city did not work for Liu Xun, but because of him, Wu Yi, Zhang Ren and others. The prestige is still there, but once the situation becomes clear, the army may fall apart.

Just thinking about it, suddenly 'Boom! With a loud noise, Wu Yi felt his feet shake violently and almost fell. He grabbed the battlement and looked back, and saw many soldiers above the water gate fell to the ground, and a warship of the Jingzhou army hit the ground. After entering the water gate, the city wall cracked a hole.

Wu Yi immediately realized that the Jingzhou army was going to board the city with the help of warships, and he shouted sharply: "Shoot arrows for me, and prevent them from going to the city!"

The crossbowmen at the top of the city shot arrows at the big ship one after another, but there was no target. The soldiers on the ship could not be seen. Shooting down, screams one after another.

At this moment, the climbing ladder originally erected on the bow of the ship began to be lowered slowly, and was placed on the top of the city with a bang. According to the original battle plan, the next step was to throw a large amount of kerosene onto the city to form a fire zone. Then the Eagle Strikers ascended the city.

But today, the plan was temporarily revised, changing from Eagle Strike Army to heavy armored infantry to ascend the city, so there was no need to throw kerosene, which would instead cause a huge obstacle for the heavy armored infantry to ascend the city.

As the climbing ladder was slowly lowered, the figures of ten heavy armored infantry appeared on the wooden platform behind the row of stairs. They were the first wave of shock, and the tallest one at the head was Liu Hu.

When the climbing ladder had just reached the top of the wall, Liu Hu roared, and rushed to the top of the wall with a saber, the long knife slashed out violently, and the heads of two guards were chopped off, and the knife flew back and slashed back. Another soldier He was split into two sections, and the remaining nine soldiers followed him to the top of the city.

The ten heavy-armored infantrymen were selected as elites. They were all over eight feet two tall, with broad arms and round waists.

At this time, more than a dozen large ships had joined together one after another, and two thousand heavy armored infantry rushed in line, with sabers in their hands gleaming with cold light. The soldiers rushed to the climbing platform with murderous intent, and rushed towards the top of the city along the climbing ladder. go.

Wu Yi's eyes were red with anxiety, and he shouted loudly: "Let the arrows! Let the arrows!"

The overwhelming arrows shot at the heavy armored infantry, but the defenders saw a terrifying scene. The arrows shot at the enemy, but it had no effect at all. They fired one after another, as if they were invulnerable.

At this time, hundreds of heavy armored infantry rushed to the top of the city, and the top of the city they occupied became wider and wider. Unstoppable, there are broken corpses all over the ground, flesh and blood flying everywhere, and heads and limbs are piled up on the top of the city.

In fact, heavy armored infantry is mainly used to deal with cavalry. They are very risky to fight alone. For example, their biggest weakness is that it is inconvenient to walk. Once they fall, it is difficult to stand up. Heavy armor is not invulnerable, they can be shot through with the powerful iron arrows of the ten-stone rhubarb crossbow.

But the reason why the heavy armored infantry succeeded repeatedly was their surprise. The opponent didn't even know that such an army existed, and they didn't prepare in advance, at least the Yizhou army didn't prepare. The Jiangdong army had suffered a big loss at their hands, and they were all prepared to deal with it in advance.

However, the Yizhou army was not prepared. They watched their teammates being massacred like chopping melons and vegetables. They died miserably. Half of their heads were cut off, their arms and thighs were criss-crossed, and their bodies were chopped into two pieces. The internal organs flowed out from the severed body, and the smell of blood in the air made one want to vomit. The soldiers were frightened out of their wits, their fighting spirit lost, and they turned around and ran for their lives.

Wu Yi was so anxious that he yelled to prevent the soldiers from fleeing. He killed more than a dozen deserters in a row, but he couldn't stop the soldiers from fleeing.

At this time, he suddenly found that there were tens of thousands of Jingzhou soldiers boarding the ship one after another, and they were continuously attacking the top of the city with the help of the opened upper city passage. A little desperate. [

"General, quickly retreat to the inner city, or it will be too late!"

Wu Yi's soldiers yelled loudly. Regardless of Wu Yi's willingness or not, they lifted him up and ran towards the inner city. The Yizhou army was completely defeated in the outer city. Tens of thousands of troops outside the city entered the outer city

The distance between the inner city and the outer city was about [-] steps. There was no moat and no drawbridge. The army rushed directly to the city gate. Hundreds of soldiers slammed into the inner city gate violently with huge battering rams. —'The dull and loud noise spread throughout the city, the city walls were shaking, and the soldiers were unable to stand still.

Liu Xun, who was on the head of the inner city, was trembling with fright. Watching the dark enemy troops rushing into the inner city, he felt the violent shaking under his feet, and the city gate made the sound of being smashed open. Helping the guards to escape to the city, the guards saw that the situation was not good, surrounded him and went down the city, and fled to the state pastoral mansion in a panic.

Zhang Ren and Wu Yi each led a thousand men, and fought desperately on the east and west sides of the city to resist the heavy armored infantry attacking the inner city. There was no partition in between, and they could only rely on their flesh and blood to resist the enemy.

At this time, the defenders of the inner city also knew that the gates of the inner city were about to be breached, and that Chengdu was about to fall. Everyone was in despair. Even Liu Xun fled, and no one was willing to work hard. The soldiers took off their armor and threw away their weapons. , Left the city head one after another, fled into the city.

At this moment, the flames suddenly brightened above the outer city. Thousands of soldiers raised the torches, illuminating the outer city like daylight, and the dull drum sounded like an order. All the attacks of the Jingzhou army stopped suddenly. The heavily armored soldiers stopped slashing and sprinting, and the door-slamming soldiers stopped hitting and retreated quickly.

The defenders were at a loss, and looked up the outer city one after another. They saw a cavalry of more than a thousand cavalry surrounded by a general in golden armor and went up to the top of the city. Next, a big "Liu" character clearly appeared on the big flag, and the Yizhou soldiers on the inner city head became a little agitated. This is the arrival of Jingzhou Mu Liu Jing.

Liu Jing stopped above the main gate, holding his halberd high in his hand, and the whole city fell silent for a moment, only to hear him shout: "Listen, brothers guarding the city, I am Liu Jing, shepherd of Jingzhou, and I don't want to kill you. Wait for a chance, put down your weapons and surrender, the Jingzhou army will not commit any crimes, and the property of all civil and military officials will be protected. If Chengdu has not surrendered before noon tomorrow, the Jingzhou army will slaughter the city and stand up!"

His voice was deep and clear, reverberating in the inner and outer city, everyone could hear it clearly, the defenders all lowered their heads, even Zhang Ren felt extremely tired, he had no fighting spirit in his heart, and lowered his voice With a low sigh.

Liu Jing immediately ordered, "Retreat!"

The Jingzhou army retreated like an ebbing tide. After a quarter of an hour, the [-] Jingzhou army retreated cleanly. Even the dead soldiers and wounded soldiers were carried away. Slowly retreat.

Looking at the empty outer city, Wu Yi couldn't help but heaved a long sigh, and said to himself: "The general situation is over!"

This night, Chengdu City is destined to be a sleepless night. The Jingzhou Army retreated at the last moment after breaking through the city. It was not a retreat, but a chance to surrender. All of them fled for a while, and even the soldiers who trained them also ran away.

The morale of the army also collapsed. From the fourth watch, the soldiers of the whole battalion took off their armor and discarded their weapons and fled to hide among the people. By dawn, only [-] of the [-] troops remained.

The sky in the east gradually turned pale, and it was already dawn, and the mountains and rivers in the distance could already be seen. Wu Yi was alone, patrolling the outer city alone, and the remaining soldiers who had escaped were busy cleaning up the corpses in the outer city. , carrying water to wash the blood all over the ground.

At this time, an officer rushed to Wu Yi, pointed to the gate of the outer city and said, "General Wu, the gate of the outer city has been destroyed, and the iron chain of the suspension bridge of the outer city has also been cut off. It will take at least three days to repair it."

Wu Yi sighed, shook his head and said, "Don't fix it, let it go!"

The officer was stunned for a moment, then left hesitantly. Wu Yi looked at the soldiers beside him again. The soldiers stopped what they were doing and stared blankly at him. Do you want to fight again?"

All the soldiers shook their heads, and an old veteran said: "We don't want to fight anymore, but we don't want to abandon the old general and flee."

"I know!"

Wu Yi's nose was a little sour, and he nodded and said, "I won't let you die in vain again, and I won't let your family members be massacred."

He sighed, turned and walked towards the inner city.
