Vol 2 Chapter 1092: All people are soldiers

Chapter 1092 All people are soldiers

The huge siege army was slowly retreating, and there was no chaos at all.

"The number of the Tang army is only a few hundred, and the warriors are more confident after knowing it."

A general said confidently: "Today we can defeat Luntai."

While besieging the city, Ashina Helu ordered people to build an earthen platform, which was very rough and not even compacted. After everyone went up, it didn't take long for some to stand high and some to stand low.

Ashina Helu stood at the highest place, his eyes dim, "Don't underestimate the Tang army, today they won't be able to attack, tomorrow!"

Then he summoned the siege generals for questioning.

"Tang Jun is tenacious and fearless of death."

"Is it tough?" Ashina Helu said: "Our warriors are more tough. Rotate and continue to attack."

He said to the generals: "We have a large number of people and can rotate at any time. But they have few people and can only hold on."

"See how long they last."

The attack started again.

This wave of attack continued until dusk.

"Withdraw!"

The siege army began to withdraw.

A general came back and said: "The Tang army is so tenacious, may it break the city tomorrow?"

Ashina Helu looked at the setting sun shining like blood on the top of the city, smiled and said: "Today the Tang army lost at least half, how will they support tomorrow?"

Siege is a four-sided attack. After the generals in charge of all parties came back to report, Ashina Helu's confidence increased greatly.

"At least half."

this is a good news.

The fewer defenders, the more stretched you will be.

The second day.

The morning breeze was cool, Zhang Wenbin stood on the top of the city, looked at the squirming Turkic army in the distance, and said: "There are scouts in Tingzhou who are constantly going back and forth between Tingzhou and Luntai to detect thieves. They should have approached here yesterday." I found it today, and then I will go back and report... Tingzhou will get the news in the afternoon."

…

More than a dozen riders were walking slowly on the road from Tingzhou to Luntai.

The leader is old **** Han Fu.

Han Fu looked at the front and said: "Keep your eyes on the left and right, mother, those horse thieves are not easy."

This is one of the most chaotic places in Anxi. Those Turks who had never attached to Ashina Helu became horse thieves, focusing on this trade route for robbery.

The horse thieves are ruthless, but no caravan will be left alive if they are targeted by them.

No, there are exceptions, that is, women can live, but life is worse than death.

"Old Han, what is that?"

Hundreds of riders suddenly appeared in front of them, approaching quickly like a devil emerging from hell.

Han Fu didn’t panic at all, and took a closer look, “It’s a Turkic person!”

He rode his horse and turned around, "Something is wrong, Zhao Er, you go back and report the letter, just say..."

"Enemy attack!"

Someone screams.

Just behind them, hundreds of riders are swarming.

Han Fu shouted: "Kill back!"

He didn't hesitate at all, and galloped back and forth with his brother.

The Turks on both sides are desperately outflanking.

Once the outflanking is successful, they will be surrounded and killed.

"quick!"

At this time, no one cared about the horsepower, and the war horse knew that it was time to go all out, so it galloped with all its might.

"Quick!"

The Turkic on the left is the fastest and getting closer.

Han Fu suddenly shouted: "Zhao Er go, others follow me!"

Zhao Er trembled all over, "Old Han!"

Han Fu scolded: "Ganniang! Go away! Don't let Yeye die for nothing. Tell Tingzhou that Luntai is in danger."

He took his brothers and ran into the enemy army head-on.

kill!

Han Fu stabbed one person lightly with a horse lance, and immediately bounced off. With the help of this force, the horse lance swung, and the enemy on the side was stabbed and fell off the horse.

They stopped the enemy for a moment.

It was such a moment.

A gap appeared in front.

Zhao Er rushed out from this gap.

Two Turks caught up in time.

Zhao Er, who was on horseback, set his bow and set an arrow, turned around and shot one person with one arrow, while the other subconsciously reined in his horse.

Zhao Er turned his head.

Han Fu and the others have already fallen into a tight siege, and only shouts can be heard.

"kill!"

Han Fu charged hard.

He glanced at it in his free time, and saw that Zhao Er was fleeing far away, so he couldn't help laughing.

"Brothers, is it a loss or not?"

The remaining seven people gathered around him, surrounded by enemy troops.

"No loss!"

Everyone is covered in blood, but their eyes are firm.

"We failed."

The Turkic general looked at Zhao Er who was going away, and hated his teeth, "As soon as this person leaves, Tingzhou will definitely get news. But it doesn't matter."

"Luntai persisted until reinforcements from Tingzhou arrived."

The Turkic general shouted: "Get off the horse and spare you the wait."

The credit is gone, and the guilt is a lot. If you can capture a few captives, it can be regarded as atonement.

Han Fu asked: "What are the benefits of surrender?"

The Turkic general was delighted, "After surrendering, you will be Khan's confidantes. Women will be given priority to you, and there will be no shortage of money and food. They will even be distributed to you and other people and livestock. From then on, you only need to practice killing methods hard." , the others are scouts, wouldn't it be comfortable?"

This is temptation.

Han Fu hesitated, "Do you have gold and silver?"

The Turkic general laughed and said, "Why do you want gold and silver? I have cattle and sheep in my hands, and they can be exchanged for money at any time. How?"

Han Fu lowered his head, seemingly thinking carefully.

After a while, someone felt that something was wrong. Looking carefully, the seven people were breathing calmly.

"They are taking the opportunity to rest!"

Han Fu raised his eyes, "Kill!"

What surrender is just an excuse for myself to breathe.

At this moment, Han Fu and the others rested for a while, and the horses also recovered a lot.

The face of the Turkic general changed drastically, and he said angrily, "Kill them all!"

Han Fu led his subordinates to charge continuously.

"Old Han, I'm leaving!"

"Brother go all the way!"

"Old Han, let's go!"

"farewell!"

Han Fu kept charging, and the voices of brothers saying goodbye came from behind him one after another.

He didn't look back.

He hated himself for not being able to look back at his brothers.

The last brother was drowned in the crowd.

"Old Han, I'm leaving!"

Han Fu's eyes were full of water, "Wait for me, brothers, wait for me!"

He was rushing towards the Turkic generals.

"This is an old soldier in the Tang army!"

A Turkic man said, which aroused everyone's awe.

Turks have always been famous for their bravery, but Datang often defeated more with less, and defeated their bravery with their own bravery.

Ashina Helu has avoided the war for a long time, these Turkic people have forgotten the bravery of the Tang soldiers, and they were taught a lesson today.

"kill him!"

The Turkic general knew that this could not be done anymore, otherwise the morale of his subordinates would fall to the bottom, so he went back to Ashina He Luneng and killed him.

Han Fu continued to charge and kill, the enemy troops kept falling, and wounds continued to appear on his body.

There are still more than ten steps away from the enemy general, but the enemy troops in front are overlapping.

Han Fu was stabbed in the abdomen, and his internal organs were gushing out.

"He's done!"

The Turks are cheering.

A Turkic man suddenly stabbed Han Fu from behind.

Han Fu let go, and the horse fell to the ground.

This person is finished!

Han Fu who lost his weapon is a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

But these Turks still fear such warriors.

Before the horse fell to the ground, Han Fu held the bow in one hand and the arrow in the other.

Bow and nock!

He was in severe pain all over his body, and his vitality was rapidly draining.

Those Turks were stunned.

Hand loose.

The arrow flew out.

All eyes followed the direction of the arrow.

Poof!

The Turkic general held the arrow shaft stuck in his chest, and looked at Han Fu who was slowly falling from his horse in disbelief.

A person who is about to die can still shoot such a precise and powerful arrow.

Everyone was dumbfounded!

After shooting this arrow, Han Fu's energy and energy dissipated.

He fell to the ground, looked at those Turkic people dumbfounded, and couldn't help laughing.

"Stamp him to death!"

Someone screams.

Hundreds of people besieged and killed more than a dozen cavalrymen of the Tang Army and paid such a heavy price, the Khan would roar.

The sound of horseshoes suddenly came from the direction of Tingzhou.

More than a hundred riders appeared in sight.

"It's Tang Jun!"

"Walk!"

The Turkic cavalry who can fight all the **** in the grassland, when facing the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty who are much smaller than themselves, they don't mean to go up and fight, but turn around and run away.

The cavalry noticed the abnormality here and began to accelerate.

"Withdraw!"

The Turks withdrew faster, and they didn't even take away the general's body.

No way, if you want to take the corpse away, you must tie the corpse to the horse's back, otherwise let a cavalry flee with the corpse, the speed will make Tang Jun overjoyed.

This is panic.

The cavalry flocked.

The general led by found Han Fu, dismounted and walked over.

Han Fu lay there, his chest rising and falling weakly.

The general knelt on one knee beside him.

"I am the king."

Han Fu opened his mouth, "Turkic..."

Wang Lai nodded, "I know that Luntai must be in danger."

"Old Han!"

Zhao Er came. Not long after he fled, he encountered the cavalry led by Wang Lai, and led them all the way to kill him.

Han Fu glanced at him in relief.

"Old Han!"

Zhao Er knelt on the ground, tears dripping down.

Old Han is their leader, leading them to check this business road countless times. He looks fierce and likes to swear, but every time he encounters a horse thief, he is the one who rushes forward.

If anyone made a mistake and got into trouble, Lao Han would definitely be the first to rush over to rescue him, and then yell at him.

Old Han would be very lazy when camping. He chose a camping spot and ignored it. He just sat there and looked into the distance. Someone asked, and he said he was looking at his hometown, where his relatives lived.

Afterwards, he would scold his son for not being up to date, for not being able to inherit his martial prowess, but for liking to study instead.

Wait until the next day, he will change his words again, saying that it is good to study, and maybe he can become an official in the future.

But now all that is gone.

Han Fu suddenly took a breath, his face was rosy, but then turned pale.

When the king came to see it, he knew it was a flashback.

"Do you still have unfulfilled wishes?"

Wang Lai bowed his head and listened.

"Dalang...well... read books."

Wang Lai nodded, "We will tell you that the brothers will take care of your family, don't worry."

Han Fu glanced at Zhao Er.

"Old Han!"

Zhao Er knelt down.

Han Fu's voice was a little weak.

Wang Lai and Zhao Er Shou Er.

"Brothers, wait for me."

…

"Boom boom boom boom!"

The gunpowder packs exploded densely, and the enemy troops under the city fell down.

"Captain, there are not many gunpowder packs left."

Wu Hui checked and brought this bad news.

Zhang Wenbin was naked on his upper body, and there was a wound on his chest, which was no longer bleeding.

"How many more?"

Wu Hui was sad, "There are more than four hundred brothers who can fight."

“The Turks are crazy.”

Zhang Wenbin sat down and relaxed, "This wave of siege has never stopped. Brothers are exhausted and overwhelmed."

If the attack rhythm is normal, Zhang Wenbin dares to guarantee that he can hold on for half a month with his subordinates.

"The reinforcements from Tingzhou can leave today. Tell the brothers to hold on for another day."

Zhang Wenbin knows this is difficult.

Wang Chuhai was injured a lot, the doctor treated the wound and said: "Wang Duizheng, go and rest."

Wang Chuhai stood up, grinning his teeth and said: "There are fewer and fewer people in the city, how can we go down?"

It is too difficult for more than 400 people to hold on to the small Luntai City.

"Enemy attack!"

Wang Chuhai walked over with a spear in his hand.

Everyone is in sight.

The sergeant next to him said: "Ashina Helu is ruthless enough to shoot arrows while the enemy and us are mixed together. What the hell, many brothers fell at that time."

The Tang army was too brave, Ashina Helu gritted his teeth and said no distinction between the enemy and us, and when the enemy and us mixed together, people covered the city with arrows.

This trick caused Tang Jun a lot of losses... You can't hide, let alone predict it. Once hiding, the enemy can take advantage of the situation to hide and kill.

Many Tang soldiers fell under the arrows.

"Poof!"

The ladder is set up below.

"Shoot the arrow!"

Sparse arrows flew down.

Wang Chuhai shouted: "Get ready..."

There are thirty people left under his command, which is not bad.

Thirty people guarded a long section of the city, and everyone held the belief that they must die.

"kill!"

Fighting was everywhere at the top of the city, and the enemy broke through from time to time, and then they were driven down by the few remaining reserve teams.

Even if there were fewer people in the city, Zhao Wenbin still left a reserve team of 60 people.

There is no reserve team, once the city is broken through, there is no way to fight back.

Wang went to sea to assassinate with all his strength, and the corpses on the top of the city gradually piled up.

Two Turks charged up.

A Turkic man slashed his head.

Wang went out to sea to avoid it. Just as he was about to assassinate him, he saw another Turkic man stretching his bow and nodding an arrow.

He was cold all over, but he shot subconsciously.

Hands loose!

The arrow flew over.

Wang Chuhai slashed and killed his opponent.

Arrows pierced his chest.

Wang Chuhai only felt that all the strength in his body was flowing out.

The light of the knife flashed.

Wang went out to sea and saw the city.

He saw his own home.

The head fell to the ground!

Those eyes still refused to close, staring at the direction of his home.

"The team is up!"

The fight became more and more fierce.

When this wave of attack is over, the next wave of enemy troops in the distance begins to set off.

This is wave after wave of attacks, leaving the defenders with no chance to breathe.

At dusk, the enemy retreated like a tide.

Zhang Wenbin let out a long breath, licked his lips, and felt that the stench was unpleasant, and it was all covered with blood scabs.

He looked left and right, and the corpses were piled up like a mountain.

Those soldiers stood there motionless.

"Rest!"

The order was issued, and everyone sat down regardless. Someone sat on the corpse, someone sat in a pool of blood.

After sitting down, no one wants to move.

Wu Hui is here.

Tough walking!

"Hurt?"

Zhang Wenbin asked.

"Taken an arrow in the leg."

Wu Hui scolded: "Ashina Helu, a lowly dog slave, makes people cover the city with arrows from time to time. Damn, his subordinates can't bear it."

"If you can't help it, you have to die. No matter how you die, they will die. They naturally choose to be driven to die. At least they can look at their luck."

Zhang Wenbin asked: "How many brothers are there?"

Wu Hui supported the wall and sat down slowly, moaning in pain: "There are less than three hundred brothers left."

"Many were killed by arrows that didn't distinguish between friend and foe, you bitch!"

Not distinguishing between the enemy and ourselves is to exchange lives for lives. Tang had few soldiers, so naturally he suffered a great loss.

Wu Hui leaned against the top of the wall, and suddenly said: "Captain, should they go up?"

Zhang Wenbin closed his eyes, "I have always felt that warriors are warriors, and common people are common people. Warriors protect their homes, and common people build their homes."

Wu Hui said: "I can't take care of it now. If the city is destroyed, those people will die even worse... Ashina Helu will definitely slaughter the city."

"I know." Zhang Wenbin felt that it was difficult to even breathe, "Let all the men in the city go to the top of the city, give them weapons, and take this opportunity to practice the rules of the top of the city. At least...every death counts."

Some officials set off.

"Men from every household are assembled, ready to go to the top of the city to defend!"

"There are Turkic people outside. After breaking the city, they will definitely slaughter the city. If it is a man, stand up."

The doors of every house opened.

Women and children stand behind, and men walk in front.

"It's good to kill the enemy!"

After exhorting, watching relatives gather in the team, some people choked up, some cried bitterly.

But no one regrets it!

Zhang Ju also went out.

He told his wife, "Take care of your home, if... remember to bring up your children."

There is nothing. If I go, you can find another one.

To say such things at this moment is to humiliate one's wife.

Mrs. Qian took the two children off, and said: "My husband, just go, I will take care of the old man and the children at home. If something is wrong, I will be a cow and a horse in the next life."

Squeak!

The next door opened.

Mrs. Liang walked out.

"All going?"

Liang was a little surprised.

Zhang Ju nodded, "The situation is critical."

Liang was worried about her husband, "If you go and see my husband, tell me that everything is fine at home."

Zhang Ju nodded, "Don't worry."

Mr. Liang suddenly saw a familiar sergeant, and waved, "Can you see my husband?"

The sergeant was under Wang Chuhai's command. His body shook and he raised his head stiffly.

Liang Shi only felt weak all over, "He...where is he?"

The sergeant lowered his head.

Ms. Qian hurried over to support Mrs. Liang, and said in tears, "Don't be sad."

How could it be possible not to be sad?

Looking blankly, Mrs. Liang called out after a long time, "Husband!"

Everyone is looking at her.

Not just her family, many people never came back.

Wang Zhou walked out of the gate, shook his body, and said, "Where is the corpse?"

The sergeant nodded.

Wang Zhou said: "Go, go and fetch the boss back."

Liang choked up silently, turned around and said, "Da Lang looked at my younger brother."

In the room, thirteen-year-old Wang Dalang was leaning against the wall in a daze. His two younger brothers were exceptionally well-behaved and did not make any noise.

The corpse was pulled back, Liang got a basin of water, washed her husband's body over and over again, and then sewed up the head and neck.

"Come clean, go clean."

She put on clean clothes for her husband, but there were not enough coffins in the city, so she had to put them temporarily.

This night, the Wang family kept sharpening their knives.

Dawn, the shouting and killing sounded again outside.

Liang put on her husband's armor and picked up his horizontal knife.

Turning around, she saw Wang Zhou holding a horizontal knife.

and his eldest son Wang Dalang.

Open the gate.

Get out!

The doors of every house open.

Old man, woman, young man...
