There are one hill and eight buildings in the Northern Prefecture of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Chapter 3496: The city will not retreat even if gold is given.
Chapter 3496: The city will not retreat even if gold is given.
The messenger curled his lips: "The commander-in-chief said that the movement of the enemy's main cavalry is unknown. You must not be careless at this time. He said that this is a military order. If there is any violation, military law will be followed!"
The muscles on Tan Shao's face twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said: "In that case, let's send an order now. All Liu Rongzu's troops should put on armor and mount their horses, and join forces with Shen Linzi to destroy the enemy's armored cavalry as quickly as possible!"
Zhang Gang on the side frowned and said: "Shuai Tan, this is probably not good. The attacking troops have all been integrated with my attacking equipment. If we take them down now and replace them later, I'm afraid it will be time-consuming and laborious. I missed today’s siege.”
Tan Shao shook his head: "This is the commander's military order. There is no way. Zhang Shangshu, maybe you can use it freely when you are in Nanyan, but please remember that here, in our Beifu army, only one person can give orders. Then Even Brother Jinu, our commander, has a mountain of military orders. If anyone violates it, even his own brother and son will not show mercy. If you can't capture the city, you can come back tomorrow, but if you lose your life, Then we won’t be able to see the sun tomorrow.”
Zhang Gang's expression turned stern, and he gritted his teeth: "The only hope is that General Liu and the others can move faster and kill all the armored cavalry of the Yan army early. We let Gongsun Wulou escape again just now. Damn it. If he leads a surprise attack, I will kill him myself!"
Tan Shao smiled slightly and patted Zhang Gang's shoulder: "Don't worry, your attacking tools will be used soon. You have never seen Rong Zu's ability. He can definitely..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a panicked voice coming from down the mountain: "Shuai Tan, Marshal Tan, it's not good, it's not good..."
Tan Shao's face changed slightly. He looked around and saw that it was his younger brother Tan Hezhi. He frowned: "Hezhi, what happened? You are so panicked. You are not preparing to attack the city with Rongzu." ?”
Tan Hezhi wiped the sweat from his face: "Rongzu, Rongzu heard that enemy cavalry was coming to charge, so he jumped off the siege machine and got on his horse. He said that this time, he would fight in person. All armor and cavalry!"
Tan Shao sighed: "I should have expected that Rongzu, a boy, is happy when he hears a battle and fights when he is strong. If he hears the armored cavalry coming, he must not be able to hold back. He orders the front troops to beat him. Drum to support the battle, cheer for Rong Zu and General Shen Tianzi!"
Xicheng, battlefield.
The sound of killing shook the sky, and the iron hooves shook the ground. More than a thousand armored cavalry rolled up waves of wild sand. Again and again, facing a hundred steps in front of them, they formed a large shield and a long spear, pushing four-wheeled carts and waiting to attack the city. The props were blocked in front, and the three large regiments of Jin army's infantry formations spread out in a wild goose shape behind the chariots launched a cavalry attack.
The knights, fully equipped with men and horses, rushed in column to about fifty paces in front of the Jin army's formation, then drew a sharp diagonal line and swept forward to the side, leaving less than forty paces before leaving the Jin army's infantry formation. He shot out rows of arrows sideways, then roared away, quickly getting out of range before the Jin army's counterattack crossbows could hit him.
Outside the Jin army's infantry formation, the carts and the large shields behind them were already filled with arrows. From time to time, a soldier fell down after being hit by an arrow, and would be quickly dragged back to his companions behind, row after row. Arrows soared into the sky from behind the formation, cleaning the armored cavalry passing in front of the formation like raindrops.
Almost every knight would have several arrow shafts like this inserted into their bodies. Although they did not pose much of a threat to them in heavy armor, after more than a quarter of an hour of shooting, more than thirty knights were downed. But after such a round, After rounds of fire, the Jin army's chariot formation was slowly retreating. After several rounds of rounds, the Yan army's cavalry had actually forced back the Jin army's formation, which consisted of three large groups and nearly a thousand people, by as many as a hundred steps. .
Murong Lin rested his horse and stood behind the formation. Looking at the battle ahead, he nodded with satisfaction: "Very good. This round of sudden fire has pushed back the Jin army by more than ten steps. Now their front line has been If there are any signs of dispersion, shoot two more times and we can launch a cavalry assault."
Cardro on the side laughed and said: "This is because we caught the Jin army by surprise and cut directly into their siege formation. In the first round of attack, we knocked out more than 30 enemy ladders. After beheading more than 300 people, the Jin army of these three regiments temporarily gave up the siege and turned their attacking tools to us temporarily. They did not even have time to cooperate with the formation, but in a hurry, they were able to withstand our army's assault. It’s also very valuable.”
Murong Lin said solemnly: "Uncle Gang told me one thing when he came here, that is, my father is in the West City, and he will definitely find an opportunity to fight out. Our current fight is to attack my father out of the city. Create opportunities. Now the Jin army's attack on the city wall has basically stopped. We can't give them a chance to breathe. We need to attack the enemy's position further and more violently. Only by defeating all the enemy forces in front of us can we... "
A rapid sound of gongs came from the top of the city. Murong Lin and Kadero's expressions changed at the same time. They looked towards the top of the city and saw dozens of gongs being sounded heavily. Obviously, they belonged to the top of the city. The defenders are calling for gold, but besides the lone cavalry outside the city, who else can they want to withdraw their troops from?
Murong Lin said thoughtfully: "Could it be that my father ordered us to withdraw our troops?"
Cardro gritted his teeth and said, "I don't think so. Your Majesty, he is leading armored cavalry and is not responsible for the defense of the city. The guard of the West City will only obey the orders of the national division. I think it is the national division." The master heard Gongsun Wulou's instigating words, such as saying that we mutinied in front of the formation and robbed the Great Yan Tian Pai. Seeing that we had made great contributions to victory, he wanted to call us back for a confrontation. Your Majesty, please don't be fooled. At this time, the general will be outside and your life will be compromised, let alone his black robe."
Murong Lin hesitated: "Well, this is not good. After all, the National Guard is the commander-in-chief of the entire army. As soldiers, we should obey orders as our bounden duty. We must not..."
Cardro sneered: "If you had to obey the order of the black robe, then young master you should have died at the north gate long ago, so how could you appear here? If you had to obey the order of the black robe, then Gongsun would have killed everyone on the fifth floor. Your Majesty, it’s right, even if you call us back to behead us now, is it still right?”
Murong Lin's pupils shrank suddenly and he said sternly: "Don't mention my eldest brother!"
Kadero gritted his teeth: "I don't dare. I have been following the eldest prince before. Before this war, I was sent from the Suwei Army. My subordinates have been persuading him that the black robe is definitely not trustworthy." Coach, we must keep an eye on him, but this time the eldest prince was still killed by the black robe. With this precedent, since we have already killed ourselves, there is no way back. We must either die forward or die at the hands of the enemy. We will be beheaded by the black-robed department when we go back. Other than that, we must unite with the prince and win. This is our only way to survive. If my subordinates are not talented, they are willing to take orders and attack!"
