The army led by Tian Fuyu and Ren Qiong was hurrying towards Jiuquan County. There are a total of five thousand elites, and there are also elite cavalry who used to belong to Tian Fuyu, which can be described as mighty.
Even though the cold wind at night was painful, five thousand soldiers still braved the severe cold and moved forward quickly. Finally, near the early morning, we arrived outside Jiuquan County.
The five thousand elite led by Tian Fuyu and Ren Qiong are quite exhausted by now.
After all, I have been traveling all night.
Fortunately, Tian Fuyu was on his way before, and the soldiers under his command would stop to rest every time they traveled a certain distance. In this way, the exhaustion of the soldiers was relieved a little, and the soldiers were not so exhausted.
Under the dark night, a group of people hid in the dark.
Because it is hidden in the dark, people on the tower cannot see it. But even so, Du Qi, who had already been waiting on the tower, had already received the news.
Du Qi has already prepared everything.
Just wait for Ren Qiong to attack.
At this moment, Ren Qiong and Tian Fuyu led the brigade to station and rest in place so as to restore their combat effectiveness.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Ren Qiong looked at Tian Fuyu and said sternly, "General Tian, ??we are almost ready to attack. We have just arrived in Jiuquan County, and we can take advantage of the victory to pursue and break through the county seat in one go. It is night, and now we are going to act at night. We are in the city People who are more supportive of our actions are better."
Tian Fuyu nodded and said: "It's time to attack, let's blow the horn! At the same time, all the torches are lit, so that all the officers and soldiers stationed in the city can see our camp."
"Light it up!"
Tian Fuyu immediately gave the order.
"Blow the horn!"
Ren Qiong shouted and seized the time to order.
After the two orders were issued, soldiers in the army lit the torches one by one, and set up the torches one by one. The crackling of the torches dispelled the darkness, so that the five thousand elites were completely exposed to the sight of the tower.
The whining horn sounded for a long time.
Echoes under the night sky.
This scene is extremely stressful.
"Attack!"
Ren Qiong followed closely and ordered an attack.
He must storm.
A burst of onslaught attracted the attention of the city tower, on the one hand, it was trying to break the defense of the west gate of Jiuquan County at one time. On the other hand, even if he couldn't break through the defense, he still had to buy time for the people in the city who belonged to him.
This attack was negotiated by Ren Qiong and Tian Fuyu. The two each had a thousand soldiers to fight, and a total of two thousand people launched a fierce attack and went straight to the tower of the county seat.
Du Qi has already come out of the room.
He wore a slightly thinner down jacket inside, and armor on the outside, and he was neatly dressed. With the killing of bandits and the lighting of torches outside, Du Qi could clearly see the approximate number of people outside the city.
On the one hand, there are Ren Qiong's soldiers, but there is another army. Du Qi's gaze fell on the opponent's battle flag, and he found that there was a Chinese character on the battle flag.
Du Qi immediately had a guess.
Is it related to Tian Yu?
Du Qi looked at Xiao Yuanqi on the side, and ordered: "When the opponent comes to attack the city later, you should pay attention to it, try to capture a few people alive, and then ask about the situation. As long as we figure out the situation, we will do it in this battle." When it comes to knowing yourself and the enemy. After finding out about the other party¡¯s situation, it will be easy to arrange.¡±
"The future will understand!"
Xiao Yuanqi nodded solemnly and answered.
Not long after, the thieves outside the city had already reached the tower. A ladder was erected on the city wall, and bandits began to climb up one by one, intending to break through Jiuquan County.
Xiao Yuanqi has already gone to prepare for arrest and questioning.
Du Qize is mainly responsible for directing.
Seeing more and more thieves began to climb up, Du Qi decisively ordered the archers to release their arrows, and each of them aimed at the bottom of the tower and shot.
The arrow pierced through the air and was unparalleled in sharpness.
In the blink of an eye, many thieves have been stabbed into the body. It's just that it's cold in the spring and it's late at night. All the thieves are dressed thickly. Even though the arrows go forward inside the clothes after the arrows are shot, the fatal injuries caused are much smaller.
The lethality of the bow and arrow has been weakened to the minimum.
Du Qi saw this scene, but he was not in a hurry, because the soldiers on the tower were preparing again. There are enough bows and arrows, so even if you waste bows and arrows, you can afford it.
A bow and arrow is like a dense rain of arrows. Although it cannot shoot and kill bandits on a large scale, at least it makesThe bandit soldiers attacking under the city tower became restrained.
The offensive was not as violent as before.
As time went by, there were still thieves climbing up, and the distance had been shortened.
Du Qi gave another order and began to pour water down.
The water was boiled, a large pot of boiling water was poured down directly, and sprinkled on the bandits, and immediately scalded the bandits rolling to the ground.
The bandit soldiers who were originally climbing up the ladder now kept falling down like dumplings.
It was extremely painful to pour boiling water on the body. The most important thing is that the boiling water poured on his body, and after it became cold in a blink of an eye, his clothes were drenched, and the bandit soldier was terribly cold. When the cold wind blew, it was as if ice was sticking to his body, which was extremely uncomfortable.
Such a method seems to have become a big killer.
However, the means of defense can only be delayed after all, and cannot completely suppress the offensive of the thieves. Under the continuous attack of arrow rain, boiling water, and even lumber and stones, the bandit soldiers still began to attack the city in large numbers, and began to climb up the tower along the ladder.
The pressure on the soldiers stationed in the city increased sharply.
The soldiers who were in charge of guarding the towers shot out their long spears to kill the bandits who came up to the towers.
"Hahaha, I finally came up with it."
"Officer dog, die."
At the corner tower of the west city that turned to the south city, a burly man with a six-foot long knife in his hand rushed up, roaring loudly.
This person's name is Lei Ming.
It is the hero under Tian Fuyu's command.
Lei Ming also participated in this attack. He was well aware of the danger of a frontal attack, and he also knew that the defense near the tower was the strongest, so he chose a remote place around the corner.
As soon as Lei Ming rushed up the tower, he swung his knife and slashed, beheading several soldiers defending this section in two or three strokes. Under Lei Ming's slashing, he fought for the gap in this section, so in a short period of time, more than ten bandits came up and began to pose a threat.
Du Qi glanced over directly.
A cold light flashed across his eyes.
Unexpectedly, someone climbed up from the southwest corner. Fortunately, even though the thunder posed a threat, there were pikemen in formation, and they held it temporarily, so as not to spread the situation.
Because Xiao Yuanqi was going to the northwest corner, there was no rush for help, and Ma Yuan was in the city, and Xue Rengui led his troops out again. In this direction right now, a general is needed.
to resolve this crisis.
"Moledo!"
Du Qi ordered.
"exist!"
Morado immediately clasped his fists and answered.
Du Qidao: "Go to the southwest corner immediately, and kill all the bandit soldiers who killed the tower. The other party's generals must also be killed, and the other party cannot be allowed to escape."
"yes!"
Mo Le Duo got the order, and left with the hammer in hand.
The hammer in his hand is on the city wall, and the two hammers, one on the left and one on the right, are enough to straddle the tower. With such a wide place, he is able to spread out and push forward quickly.
Morador's speed was extremely fast, and in a short while, he reached the southwest corner. Seeing the spearmen lined up in front of him, Mo Ledo shouted: "Get out of the way for me, let me come!" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
