Chapter five hundred and fiftieth IX Helian with blood in his heart
Fortunately, the training these days has worked. After several drills, the soldiers all knew what they should do, and the plan went smoothly. Everyone knew what they should do, and there was no problem.
There was no sign of panic. Soon, the towns and counties were surrounded, leaving only the west gate as an exit.
There were thunderous explosions one after another, and the town and county were already in chaos. The Beidi troops in the city even trampled each other.
"What's going on?" He Lianjie's face was still calm. At least he knew it wasn't thunder. But that's all. He still didn't know what was going on outside, and he wouldn't have thought of it at all.
, what are the dangers of staying in towns and counties?
"General." Cheng Situo and He Suihuan also walked into the lobby wearing battle armor. In comparison, the two of them were not so calm.
"You're here." After nodding to the two of them, He Lianlian looked past them and looked outside the hall. Things had been happening for a while, and I believe he would soon know what was going on outside.
"Report." With expectant eyes, a young scout ran into the courtyard and came to the front of the hall. He bowed to the three generals Helian and then said: "Report to the three generals, our people are in the county seat.
A large number of unknown enemy troops were discovered outside."
"Unknown enemy troops? Who are they?" Chengsituo asked with a surprised look on his face.
"How many of them can we find out?" He Lianjie did not dwell on the previous question. In his opinion, this question was idiotic. Since it is within the territory of Jizhou, if the enemy can appear here, it will not be the Jizhou Army.
who?
The young scout was sent out by He Lian, so he naturally knew whose question he wanted to answer. "Report to the general, it's too dark to see clearly, but there are at least tens of thousands of people."
"Tens of thousands of people? Are you sure?" This answer finally made He Lianlian's face change. He thought it would be the Jizhou Army, but how many people did the Jizhou Army have in total? According to the young scout's answer, there were tens of thousands of people. The number should be
It's more than the 20,000 in his own hands. Does the Jizhou Army have so many troops? Even if they are all sent over, there won't be so many, right? Or has he found other reinforcements?
He Lianjie, who was still somewhat confident at first, could no longer calm down even though he was suddenly attacked by thunder. His opponent had weapons that he didn't even know about, and he still had a huge advantage in numbers. Compared to him here
Not to mention the chaos, they are still trapped in the city. If time goes by and there is no food, grass and water, the 20,000 troops may not need anyone to fight, but they will be trapped and die.
"Report." Another young scout rushed over during He Lian's thoughts. When he came here, he told them a piece of news that shocked them even more. Not only were they surrounded, but also the North City Gate and South City Gate.
The east city gate and the east city gate are all blocked. Even the west city gate is being transported by giants, and it seems that it wants to be blocked.
This news caused Chengsi Tuo and He Suihuan to change their expressions, like headless flies, with no idea. Only He Lianjie remained rational, he just hesitated for a few breaths and then said decisively, "
Break out immediately!"
"Breaking through? Still right away?" This answer made Cheng Situo and He Suihuan exclaim. When they came to the Yamen Mansion just now, they saw with their own eyes how chaotic the army was under the thunder. It was impossible at this time.
All the troops must be gathered together. If they break through now, they will suffer heavy losses without the enemy attacking them.
"Yes, break out immediately. Two generals, I must say now that we were deceived by the incompetent Dadi scouts. The Jizhou Army is not at all what they investigated. There are only about 20,000 people. They have been hiding their strength.
What they want is to find a suitable opportunity to catch us all. Tonight is what they think is a suitable opportunity. Compared to them, who had prepared early and mobilized an army, but we were completely unprepared, we have already lost this battle.
Already."
"Did you lose?" Hearing He Lianjie proactively admit this, Cheng Situo and He Suihuan muttered, as if they still couldn't believe it.
If it were normal, maybe He Lien would explain to the two of them well. From a certain point of view, the three of them each represented three different families. There was no distinction between superiors and subordinates, and he could not order the other party to do anything.
What to do, even if something happens, it needs to be easy to talk about and discuss. But now, he has no time to wait, especially when he heard the scouts came to report that in the entire town and county, only the west gate has not been blocked, but it has also been blocked.
After the boulder was delivered, he didn't dare to wait even more.
It is no exaggeration to say that if you wait an extra quarter of an hour now, you will be in danger of a quarter of an hour. Now that you have lost, what you have to do now is what you can do to recover as much loss as possible. Don't repeat the ending of Helianzhe.
, was killed on the battlefield, and the entire army was captured. The Helian family really couldn't afford to lose this man.
We had to escape, and we had to do it quickly, before the Jizhou Army completely blocked the town and county.
"You two, time is running out. You can decide for yourself where to go. Come on, gather the troops you can and follow me out of the west city gate." He Lianjie, who had no time to say anything, gave the final reminder.
, having fulfilled their duties as comrades, they shouted outside, and soon the sound of the troops gathering was heard.
At this moment, whether they had figured it out or not, Cheng Situo and He Suihuan knew what they were going to do. Once the soldiers of the Helian family bravely withdrew from the city, they would definitely not be able to defend it.
The city, by that time there would really be no way to escape.
"Withdraw." Almost at the same time, the two generals made the same decision, and then they quickly left with their soldiers to assemble their own troops.
...
Outside the West City Gate.
The 5,000 Fourth Army troops who had completed the task of blocking the gate and quickly returned to their ranks were already ambushing on both sides of the official road. With their horns and strong bows in hand, they were ready to fire arrows at any time.
This time, in order to inflict a heavy blow to the Beidi Army and give them a good look, they used not ordinary bows and arrows, but hooked arrows. Once shot, they are difficult to pull out. Pull them out by force.
It will also bring out a huge bleeding hole, and even a very lethal bow and arrow that will cause endless bleeding.
The Di people can also be called Rong Di. They have caused trouble for the Han people countless times in history. The most suitable name for them is capricious villains. They will pretend to be grandsons when you are strong, and think of you when you are weak.
When Grandpa. Such people are not considered human beings in Tang Ao's eyes, the cruel methods used against them are not exaggerated.
The bow is the strongest horn bow; the arrow is the strongest hook arrow. This is another big dish prepared by Tang Ao for the Beidi Army who took the initiative to offend and invade.
"Everyone, be careful. When the enemy appears, just use bows and arrows to greet them. Don't initiate a charge, let alone get close to the enemy." Soldiers one after another were passing on the military orders of Feng Wanli.
This military order was also issued by Tang Ao. Although he could clearly win a big victory, he did not want to see too many casualties among his own soldiers. These soldiers were all seeds. After several battles, they were all
You can be a squad leader, or even a platoon leader, or a company commander. It would be a pity if you died like this, and it would be tantamount to damaging your own foundation.
The order was quickly passed from person to person and reached the ears of every soldier. In the dark night, the sound of iron hoofs stamping on the ground could be heard. Through the very weak moonlight, a large number of war horses could be seen leaving the west city gate.
Rushing towards the ambush site quickly.
The people coming were none other than the three thousand cavalry led by He Lianjie, and the four thousand infantry that could be gathered together.
The 10,000 troops he brought had already lost 30% of their strength before they could really engage the enemy. This was He Lianlian's tragedy, but he did not dare to wait any longer, once the west city gate was blocked by huge piles of rocks outside.
, then he really wants to be trapped and die in the town and county, that is the result where it is difficult to survive.
The seven thousand cavalry are just carrying weapons. As for the baggage and food and fodder that follow the army, no one will take care of them at this time. It is a great blessing to be able to escape alive at this time. After all, wealth is something outside the body, right?
?
Boom~boom~boom...
As soon as they left the west city gate, they were greeted by a burst of thunder attacks. After adjusting the coordinates long ago and making several attempts to find a foothold, the thunder exploded one after another.
Although it is only a second-generation sky thunder, its power is far inferior to that of t·n·t in later generations, but when it fell on the dense Beidi army, it still had a lot of lethality, especially its deterrent effect, which was far more powerful than that of t·n·t in later generations.
The real lethality shown is even greater.
After a wave of thunder attacks, the Beidi Army, which originally seemed to be in formation, became chaotic. First, the four thousand cavalry team was directly confused at this moment. Many war horses that had not been trained for explosions appeared.
Whatever happened, no matter how driven by their master, they still ran wildly, or left the team, but rushed in all directions, injuring many Beidi infantry who followed behind.
He Lian, whose face had turned as black as a pot of coal and whose heart was bleeding, continued to issue orders to move forward without hesitation. He now hated these unknown explosive objects in his heart, and at the same time he prayed.
The army can rush out of this area quickly.
There was no need to give any orders. The Beidi cavalry who could still run quickly rushed forward. Even if they clearly saw the dense forests on both sides of the official road, at this time, there was no time to send any scouts to investigate.
Isn't it safe?
"Here we go, shoot the arrows!" Feng Wanli, the commander of the Quartet Army who had been prepared for a long time on both sides of the dense forest, gave the order, and the war drums rang in the ears of all the soldiers. Then the bows and arrows were fired together, raining down towards the entrance.
The Beidi army on the official road was wreaking havoc on them, causing waves of wailing sounds.
