Chapter 969 Where did I lose?
Liyin City
As the Jingbu Battalion joined the battle on the city wall, it became clearer. Although Yan Zeng ’s personal battalion also threw up, but in front of those Jingbu soldiers who had been good at fighting alone and had been trained for a long time Their combat power is still slightly inferior.
If these rivers and lakes were a lone wolf before joining the Black Flag Army, then the Black Flag Army gathered them into a pack of wolves.
Perhaps few people have seen the hunting of wolves on the grassland. If they have seen it, it will be unforgettable for life.It was the most primitive violent blood, a seemingly endless greed.That kind of fighting is more direct and tragic than cutting with a knife and stabbing with a spear.
The soldiers in the Jingbu Battalion are a group of wolves that turned their weapons into wolf teeth.They have learned to cooperate, but they still maintain the killing technique of rivers and lakes.Such a group of people, even in the face of Yan Zeng's personal soldiers, is as unstoppable as a wolf pack rushing into the sheep.
Yan Zeng knew that the war was more and less serious, so he ordered sandbags to block the city gates from the beginning.The city gate cave is more than ten meters long, and it is full of stones and sandbags.What he guarded against was the Black Banner ’s siege hammer, and it also effectively protected the Black Banner ’s artillery.
but
There is nothing truly perfect in this world.
Even Changan City has weaknesses, but this weakness is not in Changan City itself.
The Black Flag Army gradually occupied the city wall and began to strike toward the city gate.The defenders on both sides began to panic, so that more and more black flag soldiers climbed up the ladder from the front.After the large-scale siege equipment came up, it seemed that Liyincheng's offensive and defensive battle had come to an end.
The siege car, this huge mobile device does not have the ability to impact the wall, but it can make the attacking archer and the defending archer on the wall equal in height. After the superior advantage is lost, the formation of the defending army can no longer be maintained.There are at least 20,000 defenders in the city of Liyin, but the wall is only as wide and long as it is, and it is impossible for 20,000 people to line up.
"Let the auxiliary soldiers go up and open the city gate!"
Xiahou Baichuan ordered loudly.
Under the protection of the shield player, the lightly assisted soldiers quickly ran outside the city gate.The thick city gate had already been shattered by artillery fire, and the stones and sandbags were also hollowed out.Auxiliary soldiers suffered the most losses when they rushed over. After reaching the wall, the casualties were much smaller.
But the same problem faced by the defending army, the city gate hole is only so big, it can't accommodate too many people at all, so the speed of cleaning the city gate is not fast.
With the fall of the city wall, the defenders were forced to retreat to the wall. It has been more than two hours from the beginning of the attack to the present. The huge loss of power on both sides exceeded the expectations of the two sides.Yan Zeng did not expect the Black Flag Army to be so elite, and Xiahou Baichuan did not expect the defending army to be so tenacious.
The capture of the city wall does not mean that the battle in Liyin City is almost over, but the beginning of a more fierce fighting.The defending army began to fight with the Black Flag Army from street to street, and every street was covered with corpses.In the city, the defending troops can be deployed and the terrain is more familiar, so the black flag army that entered the city at the beginning was at an absolute disadvantage, and it has not been able to advance even one step for a long time.
"The city gate was opened!"
With a burst of cheers from the auxiliary soldiers, Xiahou Baichuan was finally relieved: "Andrew, let your firearm camp move forward!"
Already, Andrew, who could not bear it, agreed loudly, and then rushed in from the city gate with the musket battalion himself.With the addition of the Musketeering Battalion, the Black Flag Army gradually took advantage.If there is no firearms camp, this is a war of equal strength.When the Black Flag Army attacked, the loss was probably much greater than it is now!
And Yan Zeng may not lose control of the city wall.
With the influx of the Black Banner Army, Liyin City entered the street fighting.
...
...
Sunset is very red
Special red
But there is no red color in Liyin City, and the color of a street is heavier than the sunset.If the color of the setting sun is faded with a red pen, then the red on the street is the splash of ink.The blood flowed to the low-lying place, and soon a little blood-depression was formed.
The sound of the boots stepping on the pavement of bluestone is like stepping in the mud. Every foot falling and then raised will bring up the blood.After the firearm battalion entered the city of Liyin, the defeat of the defending army began to accelerate. When the light cavalry of the Black Flag Army entered, the fierce street battle also ended.
Before the sun went down, the Black Flag Army finally broke through this lonely city.
With the huge advantage of the firearm battalion, the Black Flag Army is still fighting very hard.
Fang Jie did not intervene in the command of Xiahou Baichuan, he just sent someone to tell Xiahou Baichuan a sentence, the weapon-bearers in the city killed without pardon.This is a deterrent, a deterrent to people's hearts.Some people in the elite army will be more afraid of death, and some will collapse faster psychologically.When one person dropped his weapon, the plague spread.
"Submitting the order, all the defending soldiers captured or surrendering shall not scold and insult, and the stubborn people will give a happy heart."
When Fang Xie walked slowly into Liyin City, the sun's rays had pulled the shadow of the city wall to the longest time of the day. It wouldn't take long for the sun to set and the night was coming.
"Cavalry do not chase down the enemy, occupy the granary as soon as possible."
The bodies on both sides of Fang Jie Road couldn't help but sighed slightly.The loss of this attack did exceed expectations. At least 1,500 Black Flag soldiers died here, most of them in white-blade battles.After the firearm camp entered the city, the loss of the Black Flag Army basically slowed down.
"Where is the defender Yan Zeng?"
Fang asked.
"General Xiahou just sent people back to report that Yan Zeng had been surrounded by the generals with the remaining defenders. Yan Zeng originally wanted to take people to the side of the hillside granary, and our Qingqi took the back road. . If the cavalry is slower, I am afraid that the defenders will retreat to the granary. "
"Strangely, Yan Zeng did not burn grain."
Chen Xiaoru said.
Fang Jie nodded: "He is leaving his own way behind, leaving a reason for not dying. If he burns food, he knows that he will definitely die after defeat."
Chen Xiaoru suddenly realized that his heart suddenly felt awkward.
Yan Zeng can leave a back path for himself, but the defenders on the city wall have no back path from the beginning.
"Place the wounded soldiers as soon as possible."
Fang Jie did not speak again after he was instructed, and rode on the war horse to the side of General Yan Zeng's mansion.
Xiahou Baichuan and his horse are besieging the last fortress of the defending army. This general palace is also the last dignity of the defending army.The artillery has not been shipped yet, so breaking the door is not easy.As Yan Zeng retired to the generals, all of them were his cronies. Most of the defenders in the city were finally surrounded by surrender.
There are about 1,600 or seven hundred defenders trapped here. In fact, everyone knows clearly that it is no longer meaningful to fight down.But General Zeng Yan held a knife in his hand, and they had no reason to retreat.
"Surrender!"
The soldiers of the Black Banner cried out loudly: "After the order of the army of the town, all those who dropped their weapons should not be insulted and killed. Those who carry weapons should kill them all! You also have family members, your parents, wives and children Waiting for you to go home! Why do you needlessly struggle? Isn't it worthless to die like this? "
The shouting soldier's voice was already hoarse, but the tone of persuasion seemed more sincere.
"I want to see Zhen Guo Gong!"
There was a voice from the general's palace, very clear.
...
...
"Dongjiang Yan family has more talents, I have heard of it before, and I am more confident today."
Fang Xie glanced at the man standing in front of him, probably at the age of thirty-five or six, and the two sword eyebrows still seemed to carry Ling Xian's murderous spirit, and the courage that had not faded.
"You want to see me, I'm here."
Fang Jie sat down, on the stone lion pedestal in front of the general's palace.
"Since the Emperor Zhenguo is here, I will stop talking nonsense. Although I still have few warriors, I can be sure that the rest are willing to die with me. Even ... even Zhenguo You have such a sharp and powerful weapon in your hand, and these people in my hands will also fight one by one. The reason why I want to see Zhen Guogong is because I do n’t want all the soldiers closest to me to die. "
"Anyone who put down their weapons will not die."
Fang Jiedao.
"No one will die? What about me?"
Yan Zeng asked.
"you?"
Fang Jie was silent for a while and replied: "Our military order is already very clear. Anyone who put down their weapons will not kill."
"Thank you Zhen Guogong first, and I have heard that Zhen Guogong will do what I say, especially on the battlefield. I can do whatever I say. I have no doubt about this, because I believe that Zhen Guogong can go where it is today. It ’s not a matter of going back and forth. If you do this today, then the hundreds of thousands of children under General Gao Kaitai will never surrender. "
"Thank you"
Fang Jie said very softly: "But you forgot, I allow you to surrender, you can surrender. There are hundreds of thousands of people in Gao Kaitai's hands are not false, but as you are a warrior like yours, no more than 30%. I only need Killing 10% of your 30%, then the remaining hundreds of thousands of horses will soon surrender or run away. "
"I want to know, if I didn't surrender, would the township council kill all 1,600 or 700 soldiers in the house?"
"meeting"
Fang Jie nodded: "If you order it, you will do it."
"I have nothing else to say, as long as Zhen Guogong agreed to my request, don't make it difficult for the people under my control, they will not make trouble. Because they are soldiers, they have their own minimum pride.
"The last thing, I want to ask Zhen Guogong. I know you have seen Mu Guangling in Dongjiang, but have you ever seen a man named Yan Li?"
Yan Zeng asked.
"Have seen"
Fang Xing yelled: "The stubbornness and courage in his temperament seem to be stronger than you."
"Still better than me?"
Yan Zeng couldn't help sneering: "Where is he stronger than me?"
"he died."
Fang Xie said slowly: "Maybe you don't know about East Xinjiang. Let me tell you that East Xinjiang is now facing the invasion of foreign enemies. It is an extremely powerful enemy from the other end of the sea. Maybe a million troops have already landed. Dongjiang, the firearm you just said is their weapon. Unlike the Black Flag Army, all foreign enemy soldiers are musketeers. "
"Dead ... dead?"
Yan Zeng was stunned for a while: "How did he die?"
"War dead"
Fang Xie replied: "Staying on an isolated island and fighting to die."
"Slain by foreign enemies ... Yan Li, it turns out that your responsibility has always been."
Yan Zeng smiled bitterly: "I have fought with him for so many years and compared with it for so many years. In the end, I lost. He died in the battle, and I am still alive in the battle ... Yan Li, you are a king. Egg, so many years have passed ... why are you still better than me? "
"I lost to him again ..."
Yan Zengran slumped on the ground: "What the hell did I lose?"
