Deng Chong and Shi Lang, a total of twenty people, moved away from Juma in the fog and entered Wei City.
Fortunately, they don't have any enemies in this area, only a few wooden houses and no one around.
They walked along a dirt road and prepared to bypass the city and attack the enemies on the south side. Before they had even taken twenty steps, they saw a group of enemies wearing crimson uniforms.
Deng Chong lay on the ground and tried his best to count the enemies in his field of vision. He estimated that there were more than a dozen people in a group of two or so. At this time, these enemies were sitting on the ground and resting, and from time to time there were sounds of fighting in front of them.
Deng Chong and Shi Lang looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
Why?
Because those resting in front are obviously elite soldiers.
There was constant fighting at the front, but they had some time to rest at the back. This kind of psychological quality could only be seen in the old camp heads of the Shi Jiajun.
It is a pity that the two troops led by Deng Chong and Shi Lang were only formed within half a year. They had followed Zhang Chong very early and were the first wave of mountain people that Zhang Chong recruited into the mountain. Both of their names were
It was Zhang Chongqi,
But their troops are not so sophisticated. There are mountain liao, bandit surrender, and disciples from the nearby dock. Although they have participated in large-scale military training and fought several bloody battles, they are not as elite as the previous ones.
Compared with other veterans, Deng Chong and Shi Lang were still a little frightened.
But this meeting is imminent. How can we control the two of them? We can only fight hard.
The two came down to inspect the fighting equipment in the team. They were a standard pure team, and they were all swordsmen.
But since Zhang Chong fought several victorious battles and captured plenty of weapons and armor, many of them were carrying short spears on their backs.
At this moment, the two men threw their short spears in unison, with Deng Chong in front and Shi Lang behind, preparing to attack and kill the bandit soldiers in front.
At this moment, these sergeants in crimson uniforms were also slacking off and chatting with each other. Suddenly, seven or eight short spears were thrown from the air. They were not prepared, and four of them were killed immediately.
The rest of the crowd was shocked, and hurriedly picked up their swords and spears and stood up, when they saw a row of swordsmen in the mist coming towards them with a dense formation of arrows.
As the leader of the attack, Deng Chong moved very fast and killed the opponent as soon as he got up.
He first used his own weight to rush and knock over one person, and then used the knife with his right hand to chop down another one. As for the one on the ground, he was stabbed to death by the robe behind him.
Deng Chong's bravery greatly inspired the brothers in the army. They screamed and strangled the enemy troops in crimson uniforms.
These crimson-colored military robes were also frightened at this time. They had no idea how many enemy troops were coming from behind. Now there were enemies in front and behind them, and the army had no fighting spirit for a while.
Deng Chong dug his way into the enemy army, and Shi Lang, who had finished throwing his short spear, came over to kill him with his sword. The shouts of killing were loud and loud.
At this time, the sergeant in the crimson uniform was desperate. He had no luck in his heart. He thought that these people who were killed were the enemy's main force, so he did not dare to fight anymore, abandoned his helmet and armor, and hid in the mist.
Deng Chong and Shi Lang did not chase the skirmishers, but continued to organize themselves and rush forward. In front of them was the entrance to Wei City, and the enemy troops also wearing crimson uniforms were separated from their own Taishan side.
A fight broke out in Muzha.
Deng Chong and Shi Lang led their troops on a rampage, killing like crazy. The men in crimson robes had no idea how many people were behind them, and the already unstable defense line collapsed.
Then the Taishan soldiers outside the fence climbed over the wooden fence and came in. The leader was Chang Xi. He saw Deng Chong and Shi Lang covered in blood and praised:
"Well done, whose soldiers are you?"
The two of them knew Chang Xi and immediately said respectfully:
"Returning to the camp, the commander of our two villages is Li Wu."
Chang Xi rolled his eyes and knew that this time he wanted to take advantage of two people. Because this Li Wu was Zhang Chong's seventy-five-year-old sworn brother in the army, and Yang Mao, who was second in the army, was still his master and disciple.
It's not something he, Chang Xi, can mess with.
So Chang Xi cursed in his heart and encouraged him with gentle words on his face:
"Very good. This time you were able to attack the enemy from behind and open the wooden fence for our troops. You have done a great job. I will show my merit for you."
When Deng Chong and Shi Lang heard this, they felt happy and quickly thanked them.
Chang Xi didn't want to talk to the two men anymore, fearing that he could not help but draw his knife and stab them to death, so he hurriedly led his troops along the dirt road of Wei City and fought in.
In the rear formation, Yang Mao and Guan Yu were interrogating the surrendered prisoners sent by Li Wu. The surrendered prisoners told everything they knew, but what they said made Yang Mao frown.
It turned out that the soldiers stationed in Wei City in front of us at this moment were actually a battalion of Dongpingling, and they were not powerful soldiers at all.
The military system of this dynasty was different from that of the previous Han Dynasty. The former Han Dynasty generally used a conscription system, while this dynasty implemented a recruitment system. These recruited soldiers were also called camp soldiers.
The man who led this camp was Cao Changguoyong, a thief from Jinan. Originally, he led soldiers from his own family, but several generals in the camp at that time also wanted to make a fortune, so they followed him.
At this moment, in the Wei City opposite, there were five hundred Dongpingling soldiers.
After thinking about this, Yang Mao didn't waste any more time and hurriedly said to Guan Yu:
"Yun Chang, today's strong troops are in the front. I'm worried that the front army will be unprepared and suffer serious losses. At this moment, Fenjun's bravery is needed. I want you to take the officials from the five villages and quickly support the front."
Guan Yu took the order and marched forward with Yu Jin, Dian Wei, Wang Zhang and other troops stationed on the slope.
In Wei City, Chang Xi also encountered trouble.
As he was speeding along the dirt road with his troops, a shower of arrows suddenly fell from the roadside, and several of Chang Xi's men who were walking fell to the ground immediately.
Chang Xi and others lay down on the ground and looked at the direction of the arrow. They saw a wooden gate tower looming in the mist.
This place was originally a police building in Wei City. When the Jinan national thief Cao Changguoyong was stationed here, he saw that the place was critical, so he ordered it to be expanded into an archery tower. At this moment, a group of archers occupied the wooden tower and attacked the Changxi tribe from a high position.
Chang Xi's soldiers were suppressed, and they waited until Zhao Jian led a group of archers behind to stabilize their position.
Here Zhao Jian was shooting down below, while over there Chang Xi and his men took out their axes from their backpacks and reached the foot of the wooden building.
Chang Xi took the lead in cutting down the wooden building, and the officials behind him held up big rafters to protect it, causing sawdust to fly for a while.
The archers on the wooden floor also heard the sound of axes being fired. They became anxious and sent people to shoot downstairs, but to no avail. The sound of axes being fired continued.
In the mist, the sound of the ax chopping was not chopping wood, but it was clearly chopping into the hearts of the archers downstairs.
The archer upstairs saw that firing arrows downwards was of no use, so he started shouting at the back, apparently calling for troops.
Then he heard bursts of footsteps coming from the mist. Chang Xi became anxious and knew that it was enemy reinforcements. Just when he was about to be distracted and meet the enemy, Li Wu ran over with him, and then he
Reinforcements from the opposite side were intercepted in the fog.
Chang Xi suddenly heard a voice coming from the fighting over there:
"Xizi, hurry up and chop it off. Once you're done, Nai Gong will treat you to some beef."
This was Li Wu's voice. Hearing this, Chang Xi felt a sudden warmth in his heart. He frantically began to cut the wooden watchtower. Gradually, the watchtower began to tilt to one side. The enemy troops upstairs began to panic, began to scream wildly, and even shouted.
Some couldn't help but jumped down and broke their legs.
Finally, Chang Xi roared angrily and said to the brothers around him:
"Brothers, work harder and recommend it to Nei Gong. Nei Gong will treat you to beef."
The soldiers were excited and shouted slogans in unison:
"One, two, three, push!"
In the end, the wooden building swayed and fell to the ground. Dozens of shooters upstairs were buried in the rubble and were no longer alive.
As soon as the wooden building fell, the whole army was cheered up. Chang Xi roared and led his troops to support Wang Zhang.
In this way, all the Taishan generals worked together to push the front line to the center of Wei City, where the enemy's tent was located, with the largest number of soldiers and the most intense resistance.
It was also here that Chang Xi failed to withstand the enemy's counterattack and retreated with his troops.
At this time, Guan Yu came over with Zhang Dan, Hei Fu, Dian Wei, Yu Jin, and Wang Zhang holding the Huanshou Sword. As soon as they came over, they saw Chang Xi leading his troops back.
Without saying a word, Guan Yu wanted to attack Chang Xi's head. Fortunately, Dian Wei's sharp eyesight hugged Guan Yu immediately, and then the sword missed Chang Xi's head.
Chang Xi was so frightened that he felt like he was dying, but he immediately lost his anger and roared:
"Why do you want to cut off Nai Gong's head just after a bloody fight?"
Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and spat out:
"You retreated."
Chang Xi was dissatisfied and wanted to argue. Yu Jin immediately intervened:
"Mr. Guan, this Chang Xi is a good man. Instead of retreating and dying, it would be better for him to make meritorious deeds."
After hearing this, Chang Xi cursed in his heart:
Hot girl, just bully me. There are so many enemies, and I only have a hundred or so people. How can I fight? At the risk of my life?
But Chang Xi also knew that this was going to be bad, so he didn't say much, and without waiting for Guan Yu's consent, he immediately led his troops back to fight, shouting as he ran:
"Haha, you bunch of dog slaves must have fallen into Naigong's scheme! This is called a carbine."
A good man, Chang Xi, was also quick-witted, and he directly called this retreat a retreat to advance.
When the generals heard what Chang Xi said, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief for him.
Guan Yu ignored the emotions of the generals and didn't say much. He just picked up his sword and rushed forward first, followed closely by Dian Wei and other generals.
Zhang Dan, Hei Fu, Yu Jin, and Wang Zhang are all ordinary warriors in martial arts, so there is nothing much to say, but Guan Yu and Dian Wei are indeed brave. Once they join, they will be even more powerful, and they can directly suppress the front line.
Returned to Wei City.
Zhang Dan has been with Zhang Chong for the longest time and has been taught by Zhang Chong the most. Now he likes to use his brain when fighting. After he led his troops to slowly advance into the formation, he began to observe the fighting situation in front.
At this glance, it was discovered that the reason why the enemy soldiers are still holding on is because most of the enemy soldiers are covered by wooden houses, and Guan Yu and others cannot take advantage of their strength for a while.
Zhang Dan immediately found tew grass from nearby, then started to light a fire, and started to light the wooden houses in this area. After a while, the fire spread and started to burn towards the wooden houses in the back, and soon the wooden houses in this area were ignited with raging fire.
The enemy soldiers guarding the wooden house were smoked out by the fireworks, and they were shot to death by Chen Huan and other archers.
Guan Yu took advantage of this opportunity and led his troops to swarm forward, directly breaking through the enemy's last line of defense.
Finally, when Guan Yu came to a general, he had already stabbed himself in the stomach with a knife, vomiting blood, and before he died, he said to Guan Yu:
"What a great head, who will cut it off?"
After saying this, Guan Yu slashed his head with a sword.
