Seeing that the city gate was about to be broken open, the Tatar army who had been watching from the sidelines could no longer sit still. They mounted their horses and rushed to the east and south of the city, waiting for the city to be broken so that they could rush in and plunder. After all, the city of Beiping was rich, and they
It wouldn't take more than a day or two to rob Peiping.
He did not show any strength in the battle, but ran faster than a rabbit during the robbery. Seeing that the "friendly troops" were so immoral and shameless, the Yan army was speechless. However, Zhu Gaoxu made an appointment with the leaders of the three guards of Duoyan to attack the Ming Dynasty together, and now they are still
It was not time to separate the family until they reached Jinling, so Zhu Gaoxu gritted his teeth and endured it.
Compared to the enemy forces who had their own ulterior motives, the defenders, encouraged by Wan Lei Xiaozhi's two measures to move them to their advantage, were united and determined to kill the enemy! Facing the forces that were being torn apart bit by bit
At the city gate, facing the enemies that were advancing bit by bit, they could not find a trace of fear in their eyes, because they already had an unswerving belief in their hearts:
"Where Mr. Wan is, he will win!"
Wan Lei did not participate in the battle below the city. He stood under the tall building in the east of the city, directing the artillery to aim the artillery at the road leading to the city gate. Thousands of defenders on the city also concentrated their firepower on the city gate. Once the city gate was blocked
Defeat means that in a fight to the death, you can either repel the enemy or be killed by the enemy. This is a multiple-choice question, nothing else.
The whistling evening wind was still blowing non-stop. Wan Lei looked at the horizon and saw that the distant mountains were being swallowed bit by bit by the dark night. Suddenly, he felt a chill on his face, and a piece of snowflake fell mercilessly on his face.
"Crash!" There was a sound of the brick wall collapsing from the main entrance of the East City. The city wall was finally dug open! Hundreds of enemy troops appeared at the city gate hole, scrambling to get through the city gate hole, waving the knives in their hands.
The ax charged at the defenders on the opposite side.
"Kill the enemy and serve the country!" The defenders were naturally not to be outdone. With a roar, they relied on the newly built wooden fence and engaged the enemy in hand-to-hand combat. The sound of crackling swords was heard. However, not only did the defenders outnumber the enemy, they
You, also used formations to fight in groups, which was obviously slightly better than the Yan army's small soldiers fighting individually. Soon, these small soldiers who were greedy for merit and rushed forward were either stabbed to death with spears or hacked to death with machetes.
However, this was only a small prelude to the offensive and defensive battle. Outside the city gate, thousands of Tatar cavalry and Yan Jun cavalry launched a group charge as soon as they saw that the city gate was breached, rushing towards the city gate like a tide.
"Boom, boom, boom..." Without waiting for Wan Lei's order, the artillery had been fired, and the artillery stones fell on the dense cavalry team. They bloomed everywhere, and the ones that hit were rotten. After ten cannons, the enemy dropped hundreds of cannons.
Corpses. However, there were so many enemies that these small casualties could be ignored. The leading troops had already rushed to the city gate.
The archers and musketeers on the city head kept shooting arrows and guns, but this could not stop the enemy's offensive. Soon, the cavalry passed through the city gate and launched an attack on the vanguard guarding the city gate.
Puncture, under this fierce offensive of thousands of horses, the earth trembled.
"The shield soldiers are in front, form an array!" Facing the menacing and powerful enemy, Zhou Tianshou, who was in charge of commanding the vanguard, calmly issued various orders. Soon, a several-meter-high shield-armor made of overlapping shield soldiers appeared in front of the array.
The shield formation blocked all the soldiers behind.
At this time, the enemy's volley team had fired several rounds of arrows, all of which were blocked by the shields. When the enemy saw that the arrow feather attacks were ineffective, they drew their sabers, rode their horses and rushed towards the shield array, trying to smash the shields with a thunderous charge.
The formation was broken.
At the moment when the cavalry approached the shield formation, they heard Zhou Tianshou's order: "The spearmen raised their spears!" Hundreds of spears stood up from the shield formation, and the entire shield formation transformed, like a long spear.
A prickly hedgehog.
The enemy's forward saw that something was not going well, but was unable to rein in his horse in time. The horse suddenly hit the spear formation and was pricked like a hedgehog. The man on the horse was immediately thrown off the horse. The following cavalry also rushed too fast and did not have time to understand what was happening in front of them.
Something happened and he bumped into the dead horse in front of him. The horse suddenly stumbled and was thrown to the ground.
Seeing the chaos at the front, the following cavalrymen wanted to rein in their horses and stop moving forward, but there were still many people behind who desperately squeezed into the city gate, and the already narrow city gate area was squeezed into a mess.
And at the moment when the enemy cavalry's attack was stopped, Zhou Tianshou gave another order: "Archers, release arrows." Thousands of arrows were shot into the sky at a 45-degree angle,
Then it fell like raindrops on the cavalry position. Many cavalrymen were unable to dodge and fell to the ground after being hit by arrows. The cavalry formation was even more chaotic.
"Brothers, go ahead and kill him while he's sick!" Zhou Tianshou gave another order. Holding a small shield in one hand and a big sword in the other, Zhou Tianshou rushed out of the shield array and performed a rolling roll.
Dafa does not cut people, but only cuts horses' legs. However, those Tatars whose horses stumbled and fell to the ground were stabbed into the funnel by the spearmen who came forward before they could react.
There was a fierce battle at the city gate. On top of the city, Wan Lei saw that the enemy had almost entered, so he said to the old defender at the top of the city: "Throw the hay downstairs and set fire to stop the enemy!"
Dozens of bundles of hay were thrown under the city, and the enemies who happened to be passing by were smashed to pieces. They were trying to push away the haystacks blocking the road, but at this moment, a rain of oil poured down and drenched them.
Then dozens of rockets were shot down, and with a "whoosh" sound, the fire started and smoke billowed again, effectively cutting the incoming enemy into two parts inside and outside the city, allowing the defenders in the city to keep fighting with more enemies.
Less advantage.
When the enemy troops outside the city saw that their way forward was blocked, they naturally refused to give up. They held up their spears and tried to open up the haystacks to clear a bloody path into the city. But at this moment, the artillery that had been prepared for a long time came.
The hand fired again and the city was in ruins again.
When the musketeers and rocket launchers on the city saw the artillery showing off, they did not fall behind others and kept firing guns and arrows at the city. They would kill one enemy every time they came, and five pairs of ten enemies when they came. Wan Lei was not idle either.
Still, he ordered the defenders to add grass and firewood to the fire to make it burn more intensely.
There was a deadly fire scene in front of the city gate, and there were desperate defenders inside the city gate. Seeing the corpses piled higher and higher under the city gate, the enemy knew that if they continued to attack, there would be no progress other than more dead people, so they started to attack one after another.
He turned his horse around and fought at other city gates. After all, there were five city gates in the east and south of the city, and they were almost broken, so there was no need to hit him to death on one gate.
However, when these guys who were full of longing for victory ran to the nearest Zuoshun Gate of the East City, they found that the fighting there had stopped and there was a raging fire in front of the city gate. Not to mention people, not even a rabbit could rush in. Through the light of the fire,
They saw hundreds of headless corpses piled at the city gate, forming a small mountain of corpses.
Not only that, but what made the enemy even more angry was that the defenders kept watering the mountain of corpses. In the severe cold caused by the north wind blowing snow, a large ice pile slowly condensed on the mountain of corpses. And behind the ice pile,
Dozens of people could still be seen building a wall with Leishi, sealing the doorway once again.
In this case, Zuoshun Gate could no longer be attacked. Thousands of cavalry braved the wind and snow and turned to the south of the city. They found that the three gates on the left, middle and right in the south of the city were still fighting bloody battles. Because they were attacking these gates
The leader was Chen Heng, the general of Yan. The "King of Yan" Zhu Gaoxu gave him a death order, not to withdraw his troops until the city gate was broken down. Therefore, he kept urging his troops to fight.
The south of the city was once the main battlefield between the imperial army and the Yan rebels. Many of the city towers and walls here were damaged. Therefore, the city gate was dug out, and the main force of the defenders devoted themselves to the defense of the city gate and was unable to take into account the defense of other sections of the city.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chen Heng sent troops to storm the city gate, and at the same time sent demolition teams to poach the walls, trying to break through the city defense with this multi-point breakthrough strategy.
Not to mention, this strategy really killed the defenders. Originally, the defenders were not strong enough to defend the three city gates. However, the enemies on the city gates had just been repulsed, and the gate openings were still open.
Before the hole could be built, the remaining holes in the city wall were dug into four more holes. The enemy troops had already swarmed into the city from the hole. On the way, they met the defenders who came to intercept them and met hand-to-hand in the alley. The two sides started a hand-to-hand battle.
The battlefield once again fell into a state of intense intensity.
However, the enemy's Tatar reinforcements arrived at this juncture. Without saying a word, they rushed into the battle formation and charged at the defenders. The defenders suffered many casualties, and some could not resist, so they had to
Fight and retreat at the same time, and the more enemy troops swarm into the city, the harder it will be for the defenders.
Seeing that the defenders in the south of the city couldn't hold it anymore, the defenders in the west and east of the city had already sent out nearly 10,000 troops to rush for reinforcements. However, the city of Beiping was so big that it would take at least half an hour to run from the west and east to the south.
"Brothers, fight hard. If you fight to the death of a Tatar, you will win one. If you fight to the death of two, you will win..." A strong man suddenly rushed into the enemy's cavalry formation. He rolled several times and several horses were cut off.
The horse's legs and the war horse pressed heavily on his body. He could not move and was hacked to death by a random blade from the enemy.
When the defenders saw that their comrades had sacrificed their lives to create a fighting opportunity for everyone, they were even more furious. When the spearmen stabbed the Tatars who fell under their horses to death, several swordsmen rolled into the enemy formation.
Following the example of his comrade, he chopped off the legs of men and horses, while the shield soldiers and spear soldiers behind them followed up and regained the lost position a few meters.
However, the sword players were defeated in the final fight and were hacked to death in the encirclement of the enemy. Facing the death of their companions, what the defenders saw in their eyes was no longer sadness, let alone fear, but
It was hatred. Without the general's orders, more than a dozen sword players rolled out of the battle formation, using their own lives to create opportunities for their companions to counterattack.
Under this desperate and desperate fighting style, the defenders kept pushing forward to squeeze the enemy, taking back the front line meter by meter, and every inch of land under their feet was covered with the blood of their comrades.
In exchange, every inch of mountains and rivers and every inch of blood are truly lost!
Fighting on the basis of the blood of their comrades, no one regards their lives as noble anymore, and no one has any cowardice in their hearts. They just keep attacking, advancing, assaulting, advancing...
While the garrison in the south of the city was engaged in a bloody battle, God seemed to begin to take pity on the garrison in the city, because the snow fell harder, the north wind blew harder, and the strong wind blew heavy snow and hit the enemy's face.
It was like a knife scraping their faces. In such an environment of fighting against the wind, they couldn't even open their eyes, and their combat power naturally plummeted.
Naturally, the defenders would not let go of such a good opportunity. They shot at the enemy vigorously and kept pushing forward and pushing forward. Not long after, the reinforcements from the south and west of the city finally arrived. Without saying a word, they formed a formation and joined the battle.
With the addition of fresh troops, the defenders became even more ambitious, and soon the enemy troops were pushed to the edge of the broken city wall.
Outside the city, Chen Heng, who was supervising the battle, saw that the troops he sent into battle were being eaten away bit by bit by the defenders. He was furious. He slashed to death a few soldiers who had fled back timidly, and once again urged the remaining four soldiers under his command.
Thousands of soldiers counterattacked frantically toward the entrance to the city.
In short, on this battlefield where ice, snow and blood flew together, everyone went crazy...
