Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 813: News from the sea

The sound of killing nearby, the sound of firearms and bowstrings, the noise is loud, and the countless swaying stars in the distance are huge crowds! Although it was wee hours, everyone was awake!

The soldiers on the top of the solid wall of the fortress held fire|guns and bows|crossbows in their hands, and their eyes widened.

"Ah!" Suddenly yelled, a Japanese warrior held his hands|the sword turned over, and suddenly "cracked..." There was a chaotic sound, the body was like a swing, blood on the torso|holes of blood, and arrows. Plugged into the body, the guy didn't snort, leaned forward and fell to the ground.

After a while, two more Japanese warriors appeared. They immediately drew their bows, but it was too late. The crossbow arrow flew over, and the two immediately fell down the wall like hedgehogs.

There are two cannons on the corner wall here, which are filled with broken stones and iron pieces in the evening dress, but they are useless for a while... The time used is just the last defense of a large number of enemy soldiers rushing up the wall! It is useless in other situations. The shot range is only a few dozen steps, and the corner wall on the opposite side cannot reach this side; the artillery on this wall cannot bombard the wall because the negative elevation angle of the artillery is very small.

However, it was really difficult for the Japanese army to rush to too many people. The firearms on the opposite corner wall kept shooting at the back of the person climbing the ladder. It is not easy to climb the wall with this simple ladder when the stomach and back are hit by fire, and it is hard to get a few people up. It is very rare that the Japanese army has not collapsed!

In the middle of the wall, there are fewer sergeants who can rush up. Occasionally, an enemy soldier surpasses the crenel, but Xu Jun is inside, and reinforcements from the city are coming in!

"Wow!" The Yuejun warrior was very brave, and he swung the sword with both hands. The soldier Xu in front was in armor, but he was holding a short single sword in his hand. Unexpectedly, the warrior was very skillful in fighting. The two had a trick, and the warrior escaped the attack in the narrow space, and at the same time smashed the shoulder armor of Sergeant Xu. "Clang!" There was a violent metal crash, and the sound of the blade pulling on the metal "creaking" was sore.

In an instant, the samurai hissed and another sakura spear pierced his side waist.

The samurai gave up his life to rush, giving a little space in the crenellation, and immediately someone climbed up!

At this moment, a deafening sound of "boom boom boom" was heard in the wall hole, and the wall hole was also brightly illuminated the moment the artillery fired.

Xu Jun’s Tubao is not beautiful in appearance, but the shape is very regular, the whole is approximately circular, but the six solid walls are triangles with two sides protruding. Opposite this wall is a six-flower triangle solid wall, facing the back of the Japanese army's offensive direction. Three artillery shots on the opposite Liuhua wall, the distance is closer, the deviation will laugh, the ray of the cannonball is parallel to the direction of the wall here!

Suddenly, several whistling iron **** almost flew over the wall, bouncing brutally on the ground!

"Ah..." The soldier standing under a ladder opened his mouth wide, and watched a howling black figure "bang" from the ground, almost wiping his face and flying by, and the ladder "clicked". Suddenly broke, as if flying! The soldier stood there like a log in fright, and hadn't recovered for a long time. Many ladders were hit directly under the artillery fire, and the enemy soldiers attached to and under the wall shouted in chaos.

"Boom boom boom..." The artillery everywhere began to roar.

Nothing can be seen in the night sky, but the howling iron ball is extending into the torch...

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) The scene of the defeat of the Japanese army is almost invisible, but in the flash of fire, you can see the back of the defeated generals. The loud gunfire and intensive fire|gun explosion concealed many tragic shouts, and many lives disappeared silently in the night.

Feeling the danger of being approached by the enemy tonight, Zhang Jiankui and others made some changes to night defense. The secret whistle is changed more frequently to prevent the people on duty from falling asleep; prepare for fierce fire oil in the defending army; at the same time, after nightfall, launch illuminating rockets into the air at any time and irregularly...the arrow is bound with a gunpowder and exploded for a short time Inside, can illuminate the ground.

Xu Jun suffered more casualties in one night than he had done many times before, mainly by bows and arrows, with fewer people dead and more injured. The few people who were shot to death were shot on the front door only because of bad luck! As long as they don’t hit the front door, even if the arrows are shot through the armor, they won’t hurt deeply, and won’t cause death... Japanese warriors’ bows and arrows are powerful, especially in the vicinity. All shot through!

... At midnight the next day, the Japanese army attacked again at night, but this time the results of the battle made Ono Kaku dissatisfied, and he was repulsed by the fire|gun before he approached the fortress.

A military commander who participated in the night raid said: "Kun Ono, the final commander thought that under these conditions, the enemy’s firearms were too fierce, and only wooden ladders could not succeed in attacking the city; the space in the fort was small, and it was difficult to expand the number of people. It is impossible to gather forces in the fort to fight together, and can only be killed by the enemy! The final adviser does not need to climb the wall in a night attack, as long as you try to get close, use the bow|arrow to kill and consume the enemy."

Ono Kokoo also realized a problem. He suffered heavy casualties here, but his mentality has not been able to adjust: in fact, this humble fortress cannot be captured overnight...

A very strange fort! It can only accommodate the size of a few hundred people; but after trying everything possible, the force with absolute superiority is still difficult to break. This has been out of Ono's knowledge for many years.

A few days later, Ono got a piece of news from the war on the sea.

He already values ​​the Khitanese Yang Dang very much, and then he told Yang Dang the news: "The Korean fleet is close to Tsushima Island. In addition to the Korean water army, it is also full of grain. It must be to reinforce Shimibu. Come. But there were not many ships, and they were discovered and encircled|eliminated by the Japanese army, and most of the grain and grass were seized."

After hearing this, Yang Dagon pondered for a long time, and said: "Koryo people must be discussing something with Xu Guo. Their single mind is to obtain the old land of Balhae State and restore the territory of Goguryeo; Goryeo has prepared and operated Pyongjing (Pyong|Yang) For many years, people have been migrating to the north, attracting and encouraging people from all ethnic groups in the old part of the Bohai Kingdom to defect, and they have never given up their ambitions.

There are various ethnic populations in the old part of Bohai country, but there are not many Khitans. Daliao's sparse force in Bohai country still makes Korea very jealous; therefore, the Koreans want to use Xu's power to deal with Daliao. This time, helping Xu Guo Shipping is mostly to please Xu Guo as a reason to negotiate terms. "

Koko Ono listened carefully and nodded slightly.

Yang Dagon added: "The Koreans only want the old land of Bohai country, and are not very interested in the Japanese land across the sea. On the one hand, they want to please Xu Guo and behave; on the other hand, they are absolutely unwilling to use the power of the country to cooperate with Xu Jun| Advance, otherwise there would be no strength to compete with the Liao army in the Bohai country, and even less able to occupy such a vast land."

After listening to Ono, the Khitan from Xindao is not only a military commander, but at least he is quite knowledgeable about the overall situation. Although there are usually some sections that make Ono Kogu uncomfortable, but

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) The longer you get along, the more Koko Ono admires him.

Ono Hoko thinks that Xu Jun's strength at sea is relatively weak, otherwise he wouldn't have to ask the Korean Water Army to help. The Koreans were unwilling to do their best. For a long time, the Japanese navy could block the sea reinforcements of Ishimi Fort.

He re-examined the situation of the battle and thought that his previous strategy was wrong: First, he underestimated the enemy, he suffered more than once here... But there were only a few hundred enemy troops, and this idea was in his mind like a devil.

Secondly, in the mentality of underestimating the enemy, he felt that he had been making a mistake and was obsessed with rushing to break the fortress at once.

Ono Kogu tried to figure it out for a long time and re-developed his combat strategy: "First, he will besiege Ishimi fort for a long time, dig trenches close to the fortress, and then harass with a small group of elites at night, using the night to shoot and kill soldiers and ammunition.

When it runs out of ammunition and food, and its troops are exhausted, they will attack the city again! "

This strategy has some details. Ishimi Fort is different from a normal square. Even if you dig a trench, you can’t protect the soldiers hiding in it from attack. No matter how you dig the trench, as long as you get too close, the wings and back will always be exposed in a certain direction. Under enemy fire.

However, it is safer for the horizontal ditch to progress to the periphery of the protrusion... It is better than being bombarded by artillery a mile away.

In addition, this strategy made Ono Koko no need to increase his troops, but he needed more elite warriors.

So he had no choice but to write a letter to Heianjing, asking the court to send more warriors to strengthen him.

...

The mood of the ministers can be imagined when the memorial of the important soldiers of Ono Kogu arrived at the Heianjing court! Fifty times the force, besieged for more than a month, and has not captured Xu Jun's fortress, now you want to reinforce it?

The ministers all accused Ono Koko, and some people could not bear it, and went straight to demand that Ono Koko be recalled to the court for guilt, and Liangjiang was sent to Ishinomiya!

Even Mr. Fujiwara, Minister of Seki, who was forced to support Ono at the beginning, became dissatisfied.

However, in the pavilion, a very silent middle-aged man opened his mouth softly: "The Minister Zuo read the secret report first. The lower official thought that sending anyone to Iwami Kuni could not do better than Ono-kun."

When Fujiwara Shirori heard these words, UU reading www.uukanshu.com suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and his body seemed to shudder.

In his heart, he would rather believe that this was the evil result of Ono's incompetence... If not, how unimaginable Xu Jun's combat power would be?

Shiraichi Fujiwara couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "Xu people only have a few hundred people! That small village is not a big city that has been in business for many years, but a temporary earth wall..."

The middle-aged man walked up slowly, bowed an object with both hands and handed it to Mikoto Fujiwara. Miro Fujiwara held out his breath and reached out to take it.

He hadn't read it yet, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart, because he still believed that the people around him would not talk nonsense.

The whole intricate overall situation seems to feel out of control in an instant! Everything that is complicated is not withstandable in the face of brutal force...
