Datang New Order

When the second Khitan figure appeared, Liu Jinhou's heart became more stable. He waited for the other person's entire body to be exposed, shouted to jump in, and shouted: "Kill!" The wooden spear in his hand pierced the opponent's chest. .At the same time, Liu Jinhou's companion stabbed the Khitan man's thigh according to the order.

Liu Jinhou's timing of issuing the command was well grasped, and the Khitans had absolutely no way to change direction by using force in the air.When the Khitan saber slashed at Liu Jinhou's wooden spear, he finally saw the tip of the spear stabbed by Liu Jinhou's companion from the side, screamed in horror, and shrank his legs vigorously.Liu Jinhou held the wooden spear very tightly this time. The Khitan people's attention was distracted by the wooden spear stabbing from the side, so the strength of the block with their hands was much weaker, and they failed to block Liu Jinhou's wooden spear.Although in the end he passed the side shot to the thigh, Liu Jinhou's wooden spear pierced his chest, and he fell down ferociously, pressing on Liu Jinhou's body, throwing Liu Jinhou to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the second Khitan figure appeared, and without Liu Jinhou's order, his companion was a little at a loss, standing there in a daze, as if he had forgotten the wooden spear he was holding tightly in his hand.

Zhong Silang and his group were divided into five groups, because the Khitan people only had five wooden ladders, so there were only two defensive points in front of him. He placed two groups of people on each of these two defensive points. The first group Blocking the front, the second group is on standby at a position further to the side.Another group followed behind him as a preparation.

The situation was urgent at this moment, and the standby team placed on Liu Jinhou's defensive point was a little far away, and it was too late to come over, so Zhong Silang shouted: "Kill!" The reserve team behind him waved wooden spears with him, and three wooden spears pierced him. In the past, two of them pierced the Khitan man's chest, and one pierced the thigh.

The Khitan fell to the ground and was kicked by his comrades and Liu Jinhou who fell on the ground. He staggered and just avoided the three wooden spears. He grabbed the three wooden spears with one hand and clamped the guns under his arm He swung the knife with his right hand and slashed at Zhong Silang.Zhong Silang was anxious, if this Khitan broke through the defense, there would be an endless stream of Khitan rushing to the city through the wall he was guarding, and he would become a sinner of the Yuguan Pingzhou Army!He gritted his teeth, feeling ruthless in his heart, simply lowered his body, closed his eyes and hit him head-on.

The Khitan saber hit Zhong Silang's back, but because Zhong Silang was already close to him, the power of the saber did not come out. It just made Zhong Silang feel sick, but Zhong Silang pushed him to the edge of the city wall, followed closely fell off the wall.

Zhong Silang didn't care about the pain caused by being hit by the saber on the back, and hurriedly explained to his brothers that one group immediately retreated after killing one person, and replaced the next reserve group on top, and the two groups continued to rotate. Ensure that the city's defense force can be continuously guaranteed.

The effect of this change was very good. In the next battle, the two attack points that Zhong Silang was responsible for defending were no longer in danger.

It's just that the situation of the other guys is not so good. Zhou Chopper has led the sword and shield soldiers to remedy the loopholes twice in a row.It has to be said that the Khitan people's melee combat power is indeed not comparable to the recruits of the Pingzhou Army.Once the Khitans succeed in ascending the city, the damage they will bring will be much higher.In these two crises, although Zhou Medao led people to fill in the loopholes and killed the attacking Khitans, the Pingzhou Army also suffered casualties, two were directly killed in battle, and three were wounded by swords .

Zhong Silang took a break and ran over to tell Zhang Xingzhong his workaround. Zhang Xingzhong's eyes lit up, and he quickly ordered the gangs to change their defensive tactics according to Zhong Silang's method, and finally contained the Khitan's offensive.

Wuli was a little dazed. He watched the tribal warriors under him successfully climbed up the city wall in batches, and then jumped into the top of the city. Immediately, there was a sound of fighting on the top of the city, and then... and then nothing movement!He opened his mouth wide and looked at Uncle Ke Dan beside him, but Ke Dan frowned and stared intently at Guancheng without saying a word for a long time. …,

At this moment, nine batches of tribal warriors have been sent to the city in a row, a total of 45 people, but after the 45 people went up, it seemed that there was no big wave, and no chaos or noise was heard on the pass city.After these warriors went up, they didn't show their traces again, as if the pass city was a huge wolf's mouth, and these warriors in my family became fat meat fed to the wolf's mouth.Oh, there are still seven people who showed up, but they were pushed down by the guards on the closed city......

Ke Dan has experienced many battles, and he has also seen a lot of sacrifices. When he made the decision to attack Yuguan, he was also ready to sacrifice.But compared with the results achieved, such a sacrifice is really a bit miserable.You know, these people who went to the city are all the soldiers of the tribe. In just such a meal, they sacrificed a tenth of the force of the entire tribe going south this time!

He didn't dare to attack any more. If the fight continued like this, the forces supporting Xiaolang Jun Wuli would be defeated by the city of Yuguan.Losing these tribal warriors, he can't imagine how he will go in the future.He is the number one warrior in the product department, and he is the strongest bodyguard of my mother. He is responsible for the future of Xiao Langjun and the future of the entire product department.

Ke Dan quickly issued an order to stop the attack, and the main soldiers who were preparing to climb the ladder under the city breathed a sigh of relief. Under the cover of archers, they commanded the auxiliary soldiers to resist the wooden ladder and returned to the Khitan main formation.The archers who were shooting against the Pingzhou defenders in the fort also retreated slowly and gathered around Kedan.Seeing that these archers were not injured, Ke Dan was a little relieved. These people are tribal sharpshooters trained by him personally, and they are also the most important support for Mr. Xiao Lang to ascend to the throne of Lord Pinbu Qijin in the future, so there should be no loss at all.

Wuli thought for a while, and said, "But Uncle Dan, when you broke through Yuguan last time, didn't you set fire to the closed gate? Let's set fire again this time, as long as the closed gate is burned down, you can break through went in."

Ke Dan shook his head and said: "Last time I took a closer look at the Guancheng. There is a drain hole inside the closed gate. Let's fire the fire below, and we can pour water down on the top to put out the fire. As long as there are people on the closed wall, we can't burn this closed gate."

Wuli was a little disappointed: "Then... we just withdrew like this? How did my cousin reply? He also said that as long as we take Yuguan, he will support me as a tribal leader..."

Ke Dan comforted: "Yuguan can't be attacked by force. Let's write to Mr. Abo and tell him the truth about Yuguan. I think he will understand. Let's go back to Bailangshui old camp first, and we have also robbed him in the past few months." There are a lot of treasures, I will go back and distribute the looted items, and I will train some warriors, and it will not be too late for us to come back, anyway, Yuguan will not be able to escape."

Wuli had always been very dependent on this Uncle Kedan, so he had no choice but to give up after hearing this, and immediately sent an order to evacuate northward and return to the old camp of Bailangshui.

When the Khitan people turned to leave, a burst of extremely warm cheers erupted from the pass city.These people who had fled from outside the pass had suffered enough from being slapped by barbarians, and at this moment they actually blocked the opponent's attack in a head-on confrontation. Countless grievances and resentments were finally vented, and everyone wept with joy and couldn't help themselves.

In this battle, 45 enemies were killed, and seven of them were pushed down to pass the city and fell to their deaths. When the Khitans withdrew their troops, they carried them away, so they beheaded 38 of them.Although relying on the convenience of the city wall, the losses of the Pingzhou Army were not light. Thirteen people were killed, five were seriously injured, and seven were slightly injured. happened there.

On the one hand, Li Chengzhong asked people from the civilian camp to heal the wounded, and on the other hand, he ordered Wang Dalang to go out of the city to closely monitor the movement of the Khitan people, and strictly prevent the Khitan people from killing their carbine.When Wang Dalang came back the next day, the people in Yuguan finally breathed a sigh of relief, because the Khitan people had retreated to fifty miles north of Yuguan, and they were still heading north! …,

The threat facing Yuguan was lifted for the time being, so Li Chengzhong held a summary meeting attended by officers above the team leader. In addition to letting everyone discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the Khitan people, they also had to raise the problems exposed in the defense and the direction of improvement in the future. .Everyone was a little uncomfortable at first, and they were very restrained and dared not speak.

Jiang Miao hesitated and said: "Li Lang, you are the chief officer, we can do whatever you say, what else need to be discussed?"

Li Chengzhong patiently explained: "Although I am currently the chief officer of the Yuguan No. [-] soldiers, it is impossible for me to fight alone. In the real fight, it is you who command the soldiers. What problems did you encounter in the battle?" , What do you think is good and what is not good, bring them up, let's discuss, won't everyone understand better in the next battle?"

Seeing that everyone was still silent while looking at each other, Li Chengzhong simply called his name: "Zhou Da, tell me, you led the Sword and Shield Team to the top of the city twice, do you have any thoughts or feelings?"

Zhou Chopper was stunned for a moment, grinning and hesitating for a while, and said: "I feel that my stomach is short of oil and water. It would be nice if I can eat more, or have a piece of meat or something." Get up with a machete.Zhou Medao said angrily: "Where is the nonsense? If I had eaten more, those Khitan thieves would have been knocked down by a certain shield long ago. How can they be allowed to act wild!"

Li Chengzhong interjected: "What Zhou Da said is very good. This is indeed a problem, a problem of food and fodder logistics supply. I will write down this problem. I will think of a solution when the time comes. Don't laugh, everyone. Since ancient times, wars have largely been fought. The fight is logistics, and the soldiers don’t have enough to eat, how can this battle be fought? Wang Dalang...is still laughing?...Go on!"

Wang Dalang was still having fun at first, but when he heard this, he made a bitter face, scratched his head, and thought for a long time, before he said: "Someone thought, should we specially recruit some people who can ride horses to be scouts? A certain person went to inquire about the news, and I was really tired and flustered...Dutou, I am not trying to be lazy, I just want to..."

Li Chengzhong nodded and said: "That's right. Originally, according to the establishment, the scouting mission in the Pingzhou Army should be undertaken by the Zhongying, but at present, both Capital A and Capital B are stationed in Yuguan alone. It is really inconvenient not to have special scouts. In this way, after the military discussion You go pick people and give you five places. As for the horses... I will go to Feng Dao and ask him to lend you some horses from the private camp team. Those horses are a little short, but better than none... ..."

Li Chengzhong praised and accepted the opinions of Zhou Medao and Wang Dalang, and the other military officers spoke up one after another when they saw this, and the military discussion was lively for a while.
