Chapter 219 What is a sword? You are a fucking dragon!
The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the war horses snort and prostrate themselves on the ground. This "elf" on the grassland has become a loyal partner of mankind since it was tamed by humans. Herders regard it as their home, and soldiers regard it as their entrusted life.
partner.
Covering the horse's back with a thick blanket, Guan Wanshan pressed down the soldier who was hiding under the horse's belly to keep warm. In the past, he would have pulled out this boy and whipped him severely. He dared to go to the horse even wearing armor.
There is trouble in the stomach. If the war horse is sick, how can we fight?
But it was too cold now. Seeing the soldiers he had trained one by one fall in the snow nest one by one, Guan Wanshan's heart was bleeding. He finally understood why the Western Lie Army came back from the victorious battle and Ding Xiaoyi was not only
Not happy, instead he hid in a deserted place holding a bunch of signs and howling loudly. He looked so heartbroken that he didn't dare to ask at first, but now he understands.
"uncle!"
A head poked out from under the horse's belly. When he grinned, the moonlight reflected his white teeth, which looked extremely white. Guan Wanshan said angrily: "What uncle! Call me General! What's the matter? Not enough time in the snow nest? Are you planning to come with me?"
Night patrol?!"
The young man smiled and said, "Okay! As long as the general is here, I won't feel cold!"
Guan Wanshan looked around and saw that the camp was quiet and there was no fire at all under the moonlight. Then he nodded slightly, cursed at the sky, and followed the young man into the snow nest.
"Your father died in battle and entrusted your boy to me. If you want to survive, follow the rules of training. You can be afraid of anything on the battlefield, but you can't be afraid of death. The more you are afraid of death, the sooner you will die! Remember, in
When charging, the more forward you are, the easier it is to avoid arrows. On the contrary, it is the people hiding behind who are the living targets! Oh, by the way..."
A hot leather water bag was stuffed into Guan Wanshan's hand. The young man interrupted him with a smile and said: "General, don't worry, this is not the first time we have fought in Kecheng. We will never embarrass our Huaiyuan Army!"
After smelling the fishy smell around him, Guan Wanshan grinned, patted Kecheng hard on the shoulder and said: "You are so smart! You can even keep horse urine in a water bag to keep warm. It's a good idea. Tomorrow, tomorrow we will
It’s time to have a hot bite. This damn Qilian Mountain is not a good place. Ding Xiaoyi also said that it is the warmest on the mountainside. What nonsense!”
"General, when are we going to attack the city? Suzhou City is right in front of us, why don't we do it?"
"Wait a minute, why are you so anxious! This is not something you should worry about!"
Ke Cheng sighed helplessly: "Wait, wait, wait, when have you waited? The Chinese New Year is coming soon... Uncle, general, if I can't go back, you have to help me bring the military card back to Ke Cheng
The enemy, everyone from our old Liang family wants to join the army!"
Guan Wanshan reached out and patted Ke Cheng on the head: "What are you talking about in a depressing way? Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat. Being timid before fighting is a taboo. You are my personal soldier. What did Governor Feng say when mobilizing before the war?"
?”
"We are swords! We are the sharp swords that protect the Han family!" Kecheng blurted out in an instant, and Feng Dachang's words of mobilization instantly made his blood boil.
Guan Wanshan smiled: "Well, that makes sense..."
Beep beep beep... before Guan Wanshan could continue to speak, the copper whistle suddenly sounded. The two people in the snow nest widened their eyes at the same time, and the war horses also shook their bodies and stood up.
"Dachang, there's news from Ximian?!"
Guan Wanshan roared fiercely, completely ignoring the shouts that broke the silence of the camp. What responded to him was another extremely excited shout: "Here it comes! That guy Ding Xiaoyi actually captured Guazhou Xiping City in just two days! Now!"
It’s up to us!”
"Damn it! Get up! You've suffered all these days and let me f**k you up on the traitors in Suzhou City!"
As Guan Wanshan shouted, countless black shadows suddenly appeared on the snow. Feng Dachang counted the number of people while running. Commands came one after another, and the army quickly assembled in the darkness.
"My sons! You are my sharp sword in the northwest, the sharp sword that protects the Han family. The party members are rebellious and rebellious, insulting the dignity of our Han family. Today, you will kill the enemy with your sword. How dare you not take the lead?!"
Feng Dachang shouted while making the final mobilization, while the squad leaders of each squad repeated the precautions on the battlefield and took the trouble to check and organize the weapons and armor on their comrades.
Guan Wanshan got on his horse, looked at the black shadow at the foot of the mountain and roared: "Sword? What's a sword? You are fucking dragons! Tear these party vultures to pieces for me, break their necks, and trample them in the cesspool."
!kill!"
Following Guan Wanshan's words, the soldiers of the Huaiyuan Army suddenly burst into a roar like a mountain roar and a tsunami, and rushed toward Suzhou City at the foot of the Qilian Mountains to kill them.
The army began to organize formations while on the move. This scene was experienced countless times during training. In the open area halfway up the mountain, a group of soldiers were busy. Torches illuminated the dark artillery, aiming, loading, and lighting the muzzles with kerosene.
With a loud noise, the shells filled with kerosene turned into fireballs and roared down the mountain.
The fierce fire oil was difficult to extinguish. Even in the strong wind, it only flickered briefly. When it landed, it formed bright spots in the dark night. The location of the shelling could be vaguely distinguished, but this was enough.
The Dangxiang defenders in Suzhou City were awakened by the roar, and then there were shouts of killing like a mountain roar and a tsunami from outside the city. Countless Han soldiers came like a tide, and the soldiers on the city wall were suppressed by raindrops of muskets.
Can't lift my head.
The flying stones easily scratched the cheeks of the party defenders, leaving blood behind them. Some of them hit their eyes, covering their faces and wailing in pain.
This sudden attack blinded the defenders of Suzhou City. When Dangxiang had just established the country and the military was at its peak, who would have thought that the cowardly Song army would suddenly attack.
Only experienced veterans knew that what was attacking was no ordinary frontier army, either the famous Xi Lie Army in the northwest, or the Huaiyuan Army who was not weaker than him.
Most of the defenders in Suzhou City were transferred from Pingzhou and Yanzhou. Needless to say, they had great military exploits, but this was their first time facing Ganliang's border troops, and they didn't know how powerful Ganliang's soldiers were.
As soon as a group of soldiers climbed to the top of the city, a veteran who knew how powerful they were could sneak down through the crowds of people. Before they could leave completely, a roar suddenly came, and violent vibrations accompanied by wails sounded on the city wall.
The projectiles bounced on the city wall and penetrated several people easily, then flew into the city through the gap and made a roar.
Only then did the Dangxiang soldiers come to their senses and realized that the brothers who had been talking and laughing just now and wanted to kill the Song people like slaughtering sheep had turned into torn rags, and only the stumps and broken limbs could be seen.
His arms and internal organs were all over the floor, and not a single person could be found.
The Dangxiang people once again saw the power of firearms. Before they could recover from the shock, the Huaiyuan Army's military formation was already pressing in front of them. Under such firepower, the defenders on the city wall had lost their courage to fight, let alone raise their heads.
The city gate tower was shattered to pieces as early as the start of the attack. The tower collapsed in the desperate eyes of the party defenders, killing many soldiers who had no time to run away.
Under the cover of friendly forces, the forwards of the Huaiyuan Army quickly rushed to the city gate. For them, the city gate in front of them was the focus of the attack and the final blow to break the bottom line of the party members.
The frozen hard ground made the hands of the soldiers wielding the shovels numb. Ke Cheng poured the still-warm horse's urine onto the ground. Other soldiers followed suit, and soon the land filled with the smell of urine was dug up.
