Chapter 170 Resistance
Sun Yingyuan saw the intention of Xing Tianjun when Xing Tianjun attacked Huang Degong's camp at the beginning. He knew that now he and Huang Degong are grasshoppers on the same rope. If Huang Degong is destroyed by Xing Tianjun, it will be his turn next. He dare not sit and watch Huang De in private. Gong was attacked and killed by the Xingtian Army, so even if more than 1,000 people were mobilized in the camp, he ordered a thousand generals to leave the camp and rush to the east of the city to contain the attack of the Xingtian Army.
Sun Yingyuan and Huang Degong have a good relationship, and now he also knows that he and Huang Degong are grasshoppers tied to a rope. Once Huang Degong is lost, it will be his turn to Sun Yingyuan, so if you want to save yourself, you can't sit back and watch Huang Degong being defeated by Xing Tianjun.
However, not long after Sun Yingyuan's soldiers and horses were sent out, he saw a cavalry of the Xing Tianjun appear on the battlefield. They swept through the battlefield like a whirlwind and quickly rushed into the reinforcement team sent by Sun Yingyuan. It only took a short time to disrupt Sun Yingyuan's group of people and horses, followed by this group. The cavalry of Xing Tianjun quickly began to cut the officer's army deep. After several rushes, they divided the officer's army into two parts.
At this time, another soldier and horse of the Xingtian Army appeared on the battlefield and directly rushed to a divided army. After a row of fires sounded, the officers and soldiers were immediately beaten and turned upside down.
The cavalry of the Xingtian Army quickly surrounded the remaining part of the officers and soldiers. They kept running around them like a tornado, and from time to time they fired arrows at the surrounded officers and soldiers. Although this group of officers and soldiers also resisted and shot a small number of the cavalry of the Xingtian Army, their counterattack was obvious. He must be pale and powerless, and he is about to be eaten by the cavalry of the Xingtian Army.
Seeing that Sun Yingyuan couldn't sit in the camp here, he quickly ordered another 2,000 soldiers and horses. He personally led him out of the battalion and rushed straight to the chaotic battlefield.
Seeing Sun Yingyuan's men who went out of the camp to rescue him, the cavalry and marchers of the Xingtian Army did not fight with them. After killing and injuring a large number of officers and soldiers, they took the initiative to retreat and stared at Sun Yingyuan and rescued the hundreds of remnants back to the camp.
After Sun Yingyuan returned to the camp, he recalled the fierceness shown by Xing Tianjun just now. It was not like the Fifth Battalion of the Revolution and other rebels he had seen before. Whether it was a cavalry attack or a marching attack, the enemy seemed to be advanced and retreating, showing a strong organization and discipline. The thief soldiers were more He seemed to be tough and not afraid of death, which made him a little scared, and he didn't dare to despise Xing Tianjun.
Listening to the fierce sound of artillery and killing in the east of the city, Sun Yingyuan did not dare to sit idly by. After returning to the camp, he adjusted it. He once again sent 2,000 soldiers and horses, went straight to the foot of Runing City, marched eastward under the city wall, relying on the garrison artillery and bows on the wall to provide them with cover and support. Help Huang and get credit.
The officers and soldiers who went out this time learned to be obedient. As soon as they came out of the big camp, they ran towards the city wall and rushed to the foot of the city wall before Situ Liang led the cavalry to catch them.
And the defenders on the wall also saw Sun Yingyuan's intention. With an order from the general, the city fired arrows at the cavalry of the Xingtian Army, and the artillery on the city also began to roar, which suddenly damaged more than 20 soldiers and horses under Situ Liang's command.
"Spatter! Don't step back! Rush to kill me! Don't let this group of officers and soldiers rush to the east of the city!" Situ Liang broke an arrow inserted in the blade of his left arm. He roared loudly regardless of the injury of his arm.
Even if the cavalry who attacked in a dense formation just now began to disperse, the distance between the horse and the horse was opened, so as to reduce the hit rate of the gunfire shot on the wall. One by one, they followed Situ Liang roared and continued to accelerate the horse forward, rushing to the group of officers and soldiers under Sun Yingyuan.
At this time, Liu Yaoben, who watched the enemy's array, immediately ordered his teaching battalion to start running to keep up, and clamped with Situ Liang's cavalry battalion towards the officers and soldiers.
Xiao Tianjian looked at the battle situation on both sides with binoculars from afar in the middle of the camp. After seeing the performance of Situ Liang and Liu Yaoben, he put down the telescope and smiled at Li Jinde and said, "Cure! Take a look, too! Situ Liang and Yao Ben have done a good job. They are bold and resourceful. I'm afraid Sun Yingyuan can't help him this time!"
The matter is basically the same as Xiao Tianjian expected. Although the people sent by Sun Yingyuan went to the city to support Huang Degong in the east of the city, the guerrilla who led the army still chose to retreat when he saw the two thieves and back to him. With these soldiers and horses, he was defeated again and retreated to the camp in the west of the city and was out of the wall to cover. At that time, he was followed by the Xing Tianjun cavalry who came and went like the wind and took a fierce bite, and more than 200 people were left behind.
At the end of the day, Sun Yingyuan can be said to have tried his best to send troops to contain Xing Tianjun's attack on Huang Degong. However, every time he appeared, the two groups of Xing Tianjun would immediately stick to them like the maggots of the tarp bone, and sent them back to the camp like a madman. As a result, Sun Yingyuan On the contrary, he lost more than a thousand soldiers and horses. Sun Yingyuan was angry and scolded his incompetence. The generals were full of their necks and stomachs and dared not speak. If you have the ability, you can go out and have a try. These thieves are as fierce as tigers. As long as you don't want to die outside, who can kill the east of the city! What's more, the east of the city listens to this noise, and the fight is more lively than here. If you go there, who knows if you can enter the camp of Huang Degong! Maybe you want to die if you run.
On Luo Li's side, he attacked fiercely one day, because Huang Degong was killed by the camp, and the resistance was very fierce. Although the artillery battalion and firearms of the Xing Tianjun caused them a lot of casualties, they failed to attack Huang Degong's camp. When he saw the sunset, Luo Li had to order to withdraw his troops and fight again tomorrow.
That night, Sun Yingyuan was too aggrieved by Xing Tianjun during the day. In the middle of the night, he sent a sent a senttiff to the Xing Tianjun camp to steal the camp. As a result, as soon as the man and the horse left the camp, he was found by the secret whistle of the Xing Tianjun ambushed outside their camp. As a result, it was that stealing chickens could not eat rice. Hundreds of people sent were ambushed by Xing Tianjun and ran back. There were few. They were either killed or captured on the spot, and it turned into nothing in a blink of an eye.
The next morning, Xing Tianjun went out of the camp again and launched a fierce attack on the camp of Huang Degong. This time, they sacrificed a magic weapon again, took out some of the limited flowering bullets in their hands, and bombed Huang Degong's camp, and immediately beat the chickens and dogs in Huang Degong camp. If it hadn't been for the timely pressure of Huang Degong, he would have almost collapsed on the spot.
And the generals of Runing Mansion in the city looked at the panic one by one in the city. They condescendingly saw the situation on the battlefield very clearly. They watched the soldiers and horses of the Xing Tianjun beating the big camp of Huang Degong like a tide. The momentum seemed to never stop, and Huang Degong The big camp is like a boat in the sea. It seems that it may be subverted at any time under the offensive of the Xing Tianjun, which directly shows that their hearts are tense.
Huang Degong sent people to rush to the city for help many times, but the soldiers of Runing Mansion in the city did not dare to open the door and counterattack the Xing Tianjun. The magistrate personally shouted at the head of the city that Huang Degong must stick to it. They also saw that Xing Tianjun was going to defeat Huang Degong first, and then deal with Sun Yingyuan, so they He could only expect Huang Degong and Sun Yingyuan to stop this group of fierce thieves for them. Instead, he also told Huang Degong's men that Sun Yingyuan in the west of the city had been restraining the Xing Tian Army on the side, so that Huang Degong and his soldiers would stick to it, waiting for Xiong Wencan to send reinforcements.
After Huang Degong learned about it, he cursed angrily in the camp and scolded the soldiers of Runing Mansion for not being saved. If he could hold on, would he still ask them for help? And he couldn't help but be a little angry with Sun Yingyuan. Why did he know that Xing Tianjun attacked his camp like crazy, but he never came to support him in these two days? So he sent someone out of the camp again and went straight to Sun Yingyuan in the west of the city to ask for help.
However, he even sent a few groups of cronies out and did not return to the camp. After these groups of people left the camp, they were basically intercepted and killed outside the city by the scouts scattered outside the city by the Xingtian Army. Only a group of people finally broke through the blockade of the Xingtian Army and rushed to Sun Yingyuan's camp with injuries, kneeling in front of Sun Yingyuan with blood. He kowtowed and begged Sun Yingyuan to rescue them quickly.
Sun Yingyuan's mouth was also full of bitterness. If he didn't say that he didn't work hard, he didn't expect that Xing Tianjun would be so fierce that he would not give him a chance at all. As long as he sent someone out of the camp, the cavalry of the thief army would immediately sweep in like a whirlwind, beating his men. He ran back to the camp, and by this afternoon, no one dared to lead the army to war.
As a result, at the end of the next day, although Luo Li had not been able to attack the Huang Degong camp, he basically swept away all the obstacles outside the Huang Degong camp. All kinds of refuse horses, deer trenches, trenches and iron thistles previously set up outside the camp were almost cleaned up, and even his last defense camp. The gate was also bombarded by the Xing Tianjun like an old woman's teeth, and the generals under Huang Degong were killed and injured heavily. The whole battalion was full of the sound of howling and moaning of the wounded soldiers, which made the remaining officers and soldiers frightened and had no fighting spirit.
Huang Degong rarely showed his sympathy for his subordinates this time. He personally visited the camp, took the family to bandage the wounded soldiers with medicine, and even killed some of the wounded horses in the camp, which made people cook meat for the soldiers to eat. In just two days, Huang Degong's eye socket collapsed. His face was full of fatigue, but he still had to work hard to cheer up, pretend to cheer up his generals, encourage them to fight again, and promise that if they kill a thief, he will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, and if he injure a thief, he will be rewarded with five taels of silver. At least, he will appease one of his hands. In part, in order to keep them fighting spirit, he also lied that the reinforcements were already on their way and would arrive here soon, and they would be fine by then.
Zhu Youqi, the king of Chong in Runing Mansion, was also scared these two days. Compared with the King Fu in Luoyang, he was a slightly more generous person. Considering that once Runing Mansion was broken, he might be desperate, so he gritted his teeth and endured the pain of meat. He took out 50,000 taels of silver from the royal house and let people go out of the city overnight and gave it to him. Sun Huang's second general, let them as a reward for their merits, cheer up the morale of the officers and soldiers, and strive to protect the Runing Mansion.
