When Guo Dajing was promoted to the rank of trial 100 households, he was equivalent to a captain in later generations; locally, he was equivalent to the rank of section member or deputy section officer.
But this is all false. Guo Dajing still has no one under his command. Have you never seen a captain-level soldier? Maybe it will be reflected in the military salary, but the Dongjiang Army is extremely poor. If it can be paid on time, God will open its eyes.
Of course, you can get a lot of money from the silver reward, so you can't use a title to trick people. But Guo Dajing is really not just for money. A promotion is good, but it would be even better if he could be given some soldiers.
Uiju City was captured, and the Dongjiang Army poured into the city continuously. There were more than 2,000 vanguards and reserves, occupying an absolute advantage in strength.
Speaking of which, the ability to attack the city so easily is inseparable from the loss of soldiers and generals.
If you think about it, there are only more than 700 people left in total. Even if they go to the city to guard the city in two shifts, there will only be 300 or 400 people.
This small number of troops are distributed in the city defense, and the density is definitely not big. Blast the city wall and kill the nearby defenders. Other defenders will rush over. There cannot be too many people, and there is no time.
How about chain reaction and butterfly effect?
After Guo Dajing provided accurate information to the Dongjiang Army, what happened next changed greatly or slightly from what happened in history.
Changes big and small are constantly superimposed, and they will explode in a certain incident. The attack on Uiju Castle is one of them, which is absolutely unprecedented in history.
Fighting in street battles, horses unable to gallop away, is not something Jianlu is good at, and the Dongjiang Army may not be familiar with it. However, the restrictions on Jianlu's combat power are much higher than those of the Dongjiang Army.
Because hand-to-hand combat and hand-to-hand combat are conducted within visual range, and the terrain is complex and unpredictable, street fighting is more suitable for infantry combat, and it is a battle involving numbers and strength.
Guo Dajing followed the infantry and rushed into the city. He mixed with a team and fought along the street towards the east gate.
A fierce battle broke out ahead, and Guo Dajing repeated his old trick and climbed onto the roof next to the street, approaching the place where the battle was taking place.
More than a hundred Jianlu and Dongjiang Army soldiers were fighting in the streets. They could not use their strength. When one row fell down, another row rushed up. Screams, wails, and roars were mixed together. The battle was bloody and cruel.
Ah! Amidst the screams, a Jianlu archer rolled down from the roof.
Guo Dajing cocked his arrow and continued to aim at several Jianlu archers at a high place. These guys had superb shooting skills and had already escaped death and injured many Dongjiang Army soldiers.
Screams rang out one after another, and the Jianlu archers on the roof were shot one by one and fell down.
At this time, we can see the advantages of the crossbow. Guo Dajing could lie down behind the roof, but Jianlu could only kneel and stand up to draw the bow and release the arrow.
An arrow passed over his head, Guo Dajing set another target in his sight, and gently pulled the trigger.
The Jianlu who fired an arrow at Guo Dajing was hit in the chest by an arrow and fell on his back, crushing many tiles. He then rolled off the roof and fell heavily to the ground.
Hani was shouting commands from behind the team, but he saw his own archers being shot dead one after another. Without their suppression, the enemy's morale was boosted, and they charged forward even more fiercely.
"Is it that despicable and shameless guy?" Hani suddenly remembered the experience he hated. Although it was just a guess, he firmly believed that it was the bastard who secretly shot cold arrows and killed many Jianzhou warriors.
"Kill, kill, charge forward." Hani's eyes were red. While urging the soldiers to resist, he picked up his bow and arrows, looking around for the hateful attacker.
The last archer was shot down by random arrows from the Dongjiang Army on the ground. Guo Dajing also changed his target and searched among the prisoners on the ground.
A bearded Jianlu was extremely fierce, brandishing a blood-stained scimitar, and leading a dozen of his men to fight desperately with the soldiers of the Dongjiang Army.
A crossbow arrow came silently and shot into his face, piercing his left eye.
Jianlu screamed and reached out to grab the exposed arrow cluster, and pulled it out with all his strength. Then, he fell straight down.
Go ahead! I thought this guy could eat his own eyeballs like Xia Houchun did!
Guo Dajing cursed and continued to string the arrow and look for the target.
A ferocious face suddenly appeared in the scope, and Hani finally spotted Guo Dajing, who had just moved his position. Gritting his teeth, he drew his bow and arrow and aimed at the target.
Guo Dajing also locked eyes with Hani. He seemed a little familiar, but he didn't have time to say hello. Huh? He still needs to shoot himself, so he can use this arrow to say hello!
Crashing! The bowstrings sounded almost at the same time, but only the two operators could hear it.
Guo Dajing was a thief. After shooting the arrow, he lay down and hid his head behind the roof.
The arrow flew close to the ridge of the roof and disappeared into the air. Guo Dajing moved to the side before carefully sticking his head out to observe.
Hani hadn't fallen yet. He was holding the cluster of arrows exposed on his chest. His breathing was as fast as a bellows and his vision began to blur.
What kind of bow and arrow is this? The armor I wear is high-end?!
After all, Hani could not get the answer. The traumatic pneumothorax caused by the crossbow arrow made his pulse weaken, his breathing became rapid, and he soon fell into a state of shock.
You little boy, you still dare to shoot with me?
Guo Dajing continued to shoot at Jianlu. Whoever screamed the loudest, fought the fiercest, and looked the ugliest became the reasons for being selected as a target.
Kill the enemy, kill Jianlu! Guo Dajing lost his excitement and excitement. He just mechanically pulled the string, took aim and shot, treating Jianlu as a local chicken or a dog.
Hani's fall, the archers and the brave Jianlu were shot dead, and coupled with the fierce attack of the Dongjiang Army, the remaining twenty or so Jianlu could no longer resist and turned around and fled in embarrassment.
The soldiers of the Dongjiang Army shouted and took great strides to pursue them. Several prisoners suffered injuries on their backs and fell down. They were trampled by countless pairs of big feet.
Guo Dajing slipped off the roof and ran forward with the team. He had already seen the warehouse, not far away, with two guard towers clearly visible.
…………………..
The shaking of the ground and the loud roar woke up the sleeping people in the city, including Cui Xiaoyi and others.
Cui Xiaoyi and several of his men hurriedly put on their clothes and shoes and ran out of the house to find out what was going on. At this time, the sound of golden drums and shouts could be faintly heard.
"Is the city under attack?" Cui Xiaoyi's eyes widened and he was very confused, "Where did the army come from? Why was there no news in advance?"
An Zonglu guessed: "Except for the Dongjiang Army, it seems that no army has the strength to attack the city, right?
"It won't be so fast, right?" someone expressed doubt.
Cui Xiaoyi frowned and thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "No matter what happens, be prepared immediately and stand by."
Several people went back to the house, picked up their weapons, packed up, and when they returned outside, the situation had changed drastically.
"Listen, the shouting of killing is already in the city!" Cui Xiaoyi felt incredible. The speed of the siege was too fast. Even with tens of thousands of troops, it would take some time to climb the stairs to attack the city!
"The enemy is coming in. Send reinforcements to Nancheng and drive the enemy out." A sudden shout came from outside, causing Cui Xiaoyi and others to look at each other and hurried to the gate to look outside.
