Xiliang Iron Ride

Chapter 511 Assassination

Three bursts of arrows in a row took the lives of more than 200 defenders, but the defenders also adapted to the siege method of the Xiliang Army. As long as the shield is set up and resist the flying arrows, the archers can take advantage of the gap to counterattack. The two sides have been happy to fight.

With the rumble of drums, countless soldiers ran fast in the direction of the city wall on the ladder. They were racing against time. When the defenders did not react, they put the ladder on the wall, and their task was completed. A second slower, it might be an arrow that killed them.

In order not to slow down, many soldiers are light and running with cloud ladders, which is a great test of physical strength.

Dong Yue pulled out his sword at his waist and ordered, "Kill!"

Some soldiers did not react from the combat mode just now. After seeing the movements of the surrounding soldiers, and then looking at the city, they hurriedly pulled the bow and arrows, and shot at the dense soldiers under the city one arrow after another.

Li Ru is a military division, but not a general. He is not proficient in the training of soldiers. These things are all the responsibility of the generals in the army, and the abilities of the generals are also uneven. Even if Dong Yue is determined to fight against the Xiliang Army, the strength of his soldiers cannot be improved by determination.

The wooden boulder smashed desperately into the city. Many of the defenders in the city were newcomers. The first time they went to the battlefield, they lacked the training of war. There was nothing else. Dong Yue didn't trust the Xiliang army that Li Ru subdued at all, but he appointed a small part of them, and most of them were re-collected soldiers.

A guard's wrist kept trembling and pulled the bow string. As soon as he pulled half of it, the arrows flew out of their hands because of excitement. The sparse arrows did not have any impact on the morale of the Xiliang Army.

A ladder of stairs came to the wall. The soldiers in armor followed the ladder, holding a shield in their right hand, and quickly climbed up the city.

"Fire oil!" Dong Yue ordered calmly.

A jar of fire oil poured down the city, and the attacking soldiers saw no effect and crawled up the city.

"Rocket!"

The fire oil met the rocket and ignited a blazing flame in an instant. Under the fire, the soldiers wrapped in armor let out a painful howl. They were warriors. They were not afraid of death, but the death of the fire was unbearable.

The flames ignited did not cause any damage to the iron-wrapped ladder, but the tragic situation of the soldiers of the Xiliang Army shocked the spirit of the defenders of the city. The cry of the enemy was like the sound of nature in their ears, throwing the wooden boulder under the city like playing with their lives.

It was not until Dong Yue ordered to stop that he stopped such endless squandering.

After this battle, the trained soldiers have some experience in defending the city. They only need to firmly guard the city, prevent the cold arrows of the other party, and prevent the enemy from climbing the wall. The wooden boulder, stone, arrows and other things are the existence of killing when the enemy climbs.

I wanted to let the defenders in the city see the power of the Xiliang Army when the army had just arrived, but I didn't expect Dong Yue's method was so sharp and vicious that he used fire oil to burn the soldiers.

Nearly 300 soldiers were lost, and he didn't even climb the wall. Huang Zhong's face was a little ugly. "Dong Yue is vicious. I don't know if you have a good strategy to attack the city?"

"General, Dong Yue only relies on the benefits of the city, and the Thunderbolt car and the crossbow car can greatly suppress the defenders. It is expected that there is not much grain in the city, and the army will besiege it for a long time. When the city is exhausted, our army can capture the county." Guo Jia said, "And after hearing the news that other counties in Bingzhou have been besieged here, they will also lead soldiers to come to the rescue. Our cavalry can..."

Huang Zhong shook his head slightly: "On that day, General Lv, with 3,000 vanguard troops, was still able to attack the high slaves in Fu County without blood, not to mention tens of thousands of troops?"

"General, Dong Yue's army was rigorous, and the soldiers guarding the city were a little flustered at the beginning. Under his dispatch, they quickly launched a counterattack. Don't underestimate the enemy." Guo Jia persuaded.

The Xiliang army has many cavalrymen, and they experience the most is field battles, not siege battles. When the cavalry' archery can't have any good effect on the defenders in the city, the cavalry also lose their deterrence. They can't let the cavalry hit the city wall. Although the war of attrition can be effective for a long time, it can reduce the losses of soldiers.

Dong Yue led the soldiers to guard the city. In the fire of war again and again, the soldiers grew up quickly. However, as Guo Jia said, there was not much food and materials in the city. The Xiliang army suddenly launched an attack. Li Ru was not fully prepared at all. The Xiliang army was already in the city. Now the war is going on, and he wants to support It is extremely difficult to help food and grass. The cavalry wandering on the battlefield are all the cavalry of the Xiliang Army, like the state cavalry. How can they fight against it? With the cavalry, they keep sneaking up. Not to mention a grain transport team, even if a large army comes, the Xiliang Army dares to eat it.

The county city could not be broken in a day, and Huang Zhong became more and more anxious. There was nothing he could do. He delayed it for a moment, that is, the military achievements were flowing out. He was the commander-in-chief of the first army. He was of great significance. If he was blocked by a small county, he would have no face when he went back and said it.

"General, in the siege, the soldiers at the bottom are fighting with their lives. Don't ignore tens of thousands of sergeants because of one's reputation." Guo Jiayu said earnestly that from Huang Zhong's recent performance, he vaguely guessed Huang Zhong's idea.

"The words of the military division are also true. I am too eager for quick success and short-interest. I ignored these, thanks to the reminder of the military division." Huang Zhong thought for a moment and bowed to Guo Jia.

Guo Jia hurriedly got up and helped Huang Zhong up and said, "General Huang doesn't have to do this. You are also doing this for the Lord." He didn't expect that Huang Zhongtang, a general, would salute and apologize to the military division.

"The military division can rest assured that the tens of thousands of soldiers in the army are the general's efforts. I will never use their lives to make contributions for himself."

With Huang Zhong's promise, Guo Jia was also relieved a lot. Huang Zhong is a general who has been promoted for a long time. He must want to establish some achievements to seal Youyou's mouth, ignore the low-level generals, and cooperate with Huang Zhong for a long time. Guo Jia understands Huang Zhong's character and has today's conversation.

Late at night, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Huang Zhong couldn't sleep when he thought of the war. Suddenly, he thought of Zhang Xiu, the skills of the lonely wolf soldiers, all of which are the strongest among the soldiers, especially used to attack the city at night. It is definitely a sharp weapon. If the army in the city is neglected to prevent and break through the county in one fell swoop, it is not a problem.

"General Huang, as the commander-in-chief of the army, seems to be very anxious?"

When Huang Zhong heard the words, his face changed greatly. He pulled out the sword around his waist and shouted harshly, "Who broke into the military camp without permission?"

A person flashed in the dark, with a sword hanging around his waist, and his footsteps were light, giving people a feeling that it was possible to fly at any time. It was Wang Yue who was appointed as the assassination commander.

"Is that you?" Huang Zhong doubted that he was the commander-in-chief of the first army, while Wang Yue was not a man in the army. The two had no connection.

Wang Yue laughed and said, "General Huang, can't Wang come? In the world, there is no place that Wang Yue can't go.

This is extremely arrogant. Huang Zhong just snorted coldly and did not refute. He is the coach on the battlefield, and there is no need to show off with a martial arts master.

"Doesn't General Huang want to capture Daijun? When Zhao Yun or the Lord's army comes, his face must not look good."

Huang Zhong looked at Wang Yue with a trace of puzzlement, "What does Lord Wang mean by this?" He only knows that Wang Yue works under the command of Jia Rong, but he doesn't know what position he holds.

"There is nothing to worry about Dong Yue in the county. Wang is willing to solve it. What does General Huang think?" Wang Yue laughed.

Huang Zhong snorted coldly, "There is no evidence. Wang Da is strong in human law, but there are thousands of defenders in the city. How difficult it is to kill Dong Yue." If Zhang Xiu said such a thing late at night, Huang Zhong would still believe three points. If it were Wang Yue, his credibility would plummet.

Wang Yue's face was unhappy. No matter who was despised, he would not feel good. What's more, Wang Yue, who was in charge of the assassination, thought that the soldiers in his hand were not weaker than the lone wolf. "General Huang, please wait and see and raise the fire as the name. At that time, General Huang will lead the army into the city."

After saying that, Wang Yue turned around and left the big tent of the Chinese army.

Huang Zhong looked at Wang Yue's back and couldn't help showing a trace of expectation on his face. Those who dared to talk big were generally of some materials. Wang Yue dared to break into Helan Mountain alone in those years. He not only needed martial arts skills, but also carefully. He would definitely not degrade himself and come to the Chinese army's tent to say such words.

"Ding Ding" made a few soft sounds, and several people in black followed the rope nailed to the city, like agile monkeys, and their bodies rose rapidly.

As soon as he got on the wall, the man in black looked at the four directions with vigilance. The soldiers defending the city were patrolling not far away and did not notice the situation on this side. Wang Yue did not rely on ropes. He ran a few steps quickly, with his toes and his body was empty. When he was about to fall, he stepped on the wall a few times in a row, and his body rose again. Three times in a row, it has climbed the city wall. With such skills, looking at the world, few people can do it.

After Wang Yue climbed the wall, more people in black climbed the wall. After a while, 60 people gathered on the wall. Under the cover of the night, no patrolling soldiers found it for a while.

"Action!" Wang Yue whispered, and 60 people in black dispersed into three teams to the city. Wang Yue went straight to the city alone, with light footsteps, but for a moment, there was no figure.

As soon as the man in black left for a moment, a patrolling soldier came here and looked around. Seeing that there was nothing wrong, he shook his head and went to the next place.

Wang Yue ambushed in the dark and quietly waited for the opportunity.

About half an hour ago, the east and south of the city suddenly boiled, and there was a fire in three places. After the patrolling soldiers found the situation, they immediately knocked on the gong in their hands, and for a moment, the sound was endless.

"General, it's not good. There is a fire in the west of the city and the east and south of the city. The fire is turbulent." The bodyguard outside the tent broke into Dong Yue's tent and said urgently.
