Chapter 199 Liangjiazhuang Blocking War
The messenger immediately responded loudly and ran to start sending orders. Before long, a general security officer ran behind the first chest wall with more than 300 villagers armed with bows and three-eyed guns and other things. At the same time, a gunner also put the three tiger squatting cannons at the gap of the chest wall and aimed the ammunition at the bottom.
Luo Li patted the chief security guard and smiled and said, "I said that Chief Lu, this first battle will be fought for you, so that the township soldiers can also see blood, so that they will faint at the sight of blood in the future! Ha ha! But it's just 500 officers and soldiers. Let me beat them down!"
This Lu Baobao was originally a deputy general under Luo Li's command. Because he had been seriously injured once, he often coughed up blood after recovering, and his health was getting worse day by day. Therefore, he was dismissed from the army and sent to this area to become a general commander-general. This time, he was ordered to organize hundreds of local soldiers nearby and come to the Liang family. Zhuang built fortifications for Luo Li, which is equivalent to returning to Luo Li's deployment.
So he immediately nodded and smiled, "General Luo, don't worry, don't underestimate these villagers. The last time they followed the general to see blood, they are not cowards! Look at us!"
After saying that, he shouted to the township soldiers brought by him, "Listen to the villagers. General Luo has an order to be the first to fight and beat these officers and soldiers back!" Don't lose us and the people in Shunxiang! After listening to my command later... Cough... When I said to shoot arrows, you guys were driving for me together! Did you hear it clearly?"
When the three hundred soldiers heard that they were going to fight for the first time, they were both nervous and a little excited, so they shouted one after another, "You guys heard it clearly! As long as you want, just order it!"
At this time, the five hundred officers and soldiers, with knives in front of them, had begun to rumble towards Liangjiazhuang. Seeing that the officers and soldiers were getting closer and closer, the Lu Baochang had not ordered to release arrows, and the township soldiers held their breath and inserted carving arrows under the chest wall and stared at it. Those officers and soldiers.
Seeing that the officers and soldiers had approached the chest wall by 50 steps, Lu Baochang suddenly shouted, "Give me an arrow!"
So the three hundred villagers bravely copied the guys. The bow and arrows, the fire and the three-eyed arrows fought against the group of officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain together. At the same time, the officers and soldiers also raised their shields. While blocking the arrows, in front of the first rejection horse, they transferred the officers' archers and firemen and began to fight towards the mountain. For a moment, the arrows on the ramp. Flying horizontally, all kinds of noises sounded, spewing out a mass of fire.
After all, the villagers hide behind the chest wall, which is much more stable than the rattan cards used by the officers and soldiers. As soon as the two sides fought, the officers and soldiers fell into the downwind because of the terrain, even if they were knocked down by the villagers.
Mr. Qian, who led the team, saw that the situation was not good, so he immediately ordered to retreat, robbed the bodies and wounded of his accomplices, and rumbled down.
After Xu Dingguo took a look at this tentative attack, he ordered the collection of troops to tie up the camp three miles below Liangjiazhuang. He began to build wooden baskets overnight to deal with such terrain. If the thin rattan card alone can't stop the dense rain-like arrows, so if you want to attack this place as soon as possible, Xu Dingguo will come. Look, it's impossible not to pay a price.
The next morning, Zuo Guangxian also arrived here with his troops. Nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses were stationed under Liangjiazhuang. Due to the limitation of the terrain, the military tent stretched several miles away, which looked spectacular.
After Xu Dingguo pulled Zuo Guang and looked at the terrain of Liangjiazhuang first, Zuo Guangxian also felt a headache. There is only one way to Yangcheng County in this area. Other places are either Laolin or hills. There is basically no way to go. They have so many soldiers and horses and carry them. If they want to enter Yangcheng, they can only fight. Xialiangjiazhuang is good, but the terrain here is really not conducive to their attack.
And because it is still late winter, the temperature at night is almost dripping into ice, at least minus 20 degrees. If you are not careful, you will get frostbite. Damn it, Xing Tianjun is blocked here. Last night, he actually poured a lot of water on the ramp leading to Liangjiazhuang. After dawn, the whole slope was shiny. One piece is good-looking, but it has caused more trouble to the officers and soldiers, and this is still a place with a back sun. The sun can't bask in the sun all day. Xing Tianjun's doing this is really immoral to the extreme.
In desperation, the two had to discuss for a while. They still took the method of a strong attack, concentrated the artillery of the two armies, and hit Liangjiazhuang on the mountain at the foot of the mountain. The position of the Xing Tianjun was full of gravel and dust.
However, Xing Tianjun hid behind the chest wall, but did not show his head. With their casual bombardment, they could not cause much damage to Xing Tianjun. He just collapsed the first chest wall for a while, but not long after, Xing Tianjun, who was hiding behind the chest wall, filled the collapsed chest wall with a sandbag. On the contrary, the Rejected Malu Fort on the ramp were destroyed a lot by the fierce bombardment of the officers and soldiers.
Immediately after that, the officers and soldiers sent a team of officers and soldiers, carrying the wooden basket the size of a door panel, and attacked the mountain step by step under the cover of the wooden basket.
However, as soon as they stepped on the ramp and stepped on the icy ground, they slipped. Many officers and soldiers fell into rolling gourds. The originally tight wooden defense line suddenly messed up. The Xing Tianjun, who was guarding it, took the opportunity to shoot down this group of officers and soldiers.
As a result, Xu Dingguo and Zuo Guangxian repeatedly sent troops to attack Liangjiazhuang for two days. In addition to paying the cost of hundreds of casualties, almost no results were achieved.
Later, the officers and soldiers who suffered a lot of losses came up with a way to let people attack the mountain step by step with wooden hats. Behind them, someone carried sand and kept scattering on the ramp to prevent their feet from slipping. In this way, at least it solved the problem of slippery roads, so that they could gradually attack under the chest wall of the Xingtian Army.
Until this time, Luo Li did not throw the firearms in the camp into the battle, and always relied on the archers and firearms of the village soldiers to resist the attack of the officers and soldiers.
After the officers and soldiers organized three more attacks on the third day and were repulsed, Xu Dingguo was really angry and couldn't stand it, so he sent a thousand elite soldiers from the left mountain of Liangjiazhuang, through the mountain forest, and wanted to raid the Xing Tianjun stationed in Liangjiazhuang from behind.
However, the actions of the officers and soldiers fell in the eyes of the hunters in the mountain. They quickly reported the news to Luo Li. Luo Li immediately led a fireman and a long gunman and rushed to the place where the officers crossed the mountain. After a fire, he beat the officers back and threw them back and threw them on the mountain for nothing. A corpse.
It was not until this time that Xu Dingguo and Zuo Guangxian found the strong combat effectiveness of Xing Tianjun. Although they guarded dangerously, they showed a strong desire to fight when facing the enemy ten times their enemy with a small number of troops. After careful observation, they were more It was found that it was not the regular army of the Xingtian Army that resisted them in the past three days at the mountain pass. It looked more like an auxiliary soldier composed of some village braves. The real soldiers of the Xingtian Army only showed off the officers and soldiers who tried to sneak up.
From the officers and soldiers who escaped, they heard that the Xingtian Army had a large number of equipment, and it could form endless firepower when facing the enemy, so that the attacking officers and soldiers could not fight against it at all, so they were beaten on the spot and fled into the forest and fled back.
It was not until this time that Zuo Guangxian and Xu Dingguo put away their contempt for Xing Tianjun and began to re-examine the thief army in front of them that blocked their way to march.
To say that the officers and soldiers want to enter the boundary of Yangcheng, it does not mean that there is only one place in Liangjiazhuang. There are two places nearby where the officers and infantry can enter Yangcheng, but there is only one road. The officers and soldiers carry a lot of heavy grain with the army this time and must pass through here. If you don't bring these weights. In that case, it is difficult for the officers and soldiers to operate in Yangcheng, and they are not sure that there is such a strong army of thieves acting behind them.
So after discussing, they can only adopt the method of strong attack. Only after conquering Liangjiazhuang can they dare to enter the boundary of Yangcheng.
So in the next three days, Xu Dingguo and Zuo Guang first sent troops to launch a fierce attack on Liangjiazhuang. At the same time, there was no way to sneak up the night attack, and they were determined to defeat this group of thieves here.
In the face of the repeated fierce attacks of so many officers and soldiers, Luo Li led his generals and did not retreat. He fought back the attacks of the officers and soldiers one after another. In the face of such repeated attacks by the officers and soldiers, Luo Li finally let the villagers withdraw from the battle and arranged the fireman hand behind the defense line.
In this way, when the officers and soldiers attacked, they paid a greater price. In the face of the intensive platoon shooting of the Xing Tianjun, the officers and soldiers who rushed up were often swept away, and then retreated.
Even if they carry a big shield, they can't do it. Although the thick wooden basket can effectively play the role of resisting the Xingtian Army's bird bullets, it can't stop them. When the officers and soldiers carry the wooden basket several times to attack more than 20 steps in front of the defense line of the Xing Tianjun, the Xing Tianjun will throw some round balls from behind the chest wall. The smoking iron egg hit the crowd of the officers and soldiers, and then there was a sound of explosion. Even if the officers and soldiers were blown up, the shield array would immediately disintegrate, and they would immediately be shot by the Xing Tianjun. As a result, they could only roll down the mountain with ashes.
Luo Li, the sentry, will be nailed to Liangjiazhuang like a nail. For seven consecutive days, it has made it difficult for more than 20,000 troops of Xu Dingguo and Zuo Guangxian to advance. On the contrary, in front of the defense line of the Xing Tianjun, they have suffered repeated setbacks. After seven days, the number of officers and soldiers in the army were almost as close to a thousand, and there were many others. Injured by Xing Tianjun, in such a season, as long as you are injured, there is almost no chance of survival.
After paying such a price, more than 20,000 of them were stunned under Liangjiazhuang. Xu Dingguo and Zuo Guang were angry, and even began to retreat.
However, considering that they have so many soldiers and horses, they can't even take a small Liangjiazhuang. After going back, they can't explain to Hong Chengchou and Wu Jing at all, so they can only grit their teeth and continue to attack, and both of them are cruel, dividing their soldiers into several groups, adopting tired tactics, and throwing waves after wave. Entering the battlefield, he was beaten back and then attacked Liangjiazhuang repeatedly.
Luo Li led the soldiers and horses of his camp, but on the hillside that was not high, he was nailed here like a poisonous tooth. He fought to the death. Several times the officers and soldiers almost attacked the top of the mountain. They were personally led by Luo Li in a free-handed battle. He knocked down the officers and soldiers again. After a few days, the foot of the mountain was almost full of officers and soldiers. The body.
But on the morning of the eighth day, when Xu Dingguo sent troops to attack Liangjiazhuang again, Xing Tianjun, who was stationed in Liangjiazhuang, suddenly gave up his position. On the first night, he withdrew from Liangjiazhuang in advance and made way to Yangcheng.
