Compared with the gloom and gloom in the Yellow Turban Army camp outside the city, the officers and soldiers on the top of the city looked much better. Although the soldiers' faces still looked tired, they were still in high spirits, talking and laughing. Especially the
Huang Zhong, who was standing on the edge of the city wall, smiled confidently and said: "Zihui! Not bad! Not bad! You made this thing really work!" As he said that, Huang Zhong reached out and patted the wooden frame on the city wall.
, there is no blood stain on it at all.
Luo Yang smiled, but felt relieved in his heart. In the past few days, they were forced to breathe by the Yellow Turban Army. They did not expect that the fire a month ago burned most of the opponent's elite troops.
, but it severely stimulated the Yellow Turban Army. In this month, the Yellow Turban Army attacked desperately and almost broke through the city several times. As for the previous fire attack tricks, Luo Yang did not dare to use them again.
, Firstly, the other party is already alert and cannot play a big role. Secondly, there is not much kerosene in the city, and Luo Yang still has to save it to deal with other special situations.
Fortunately, a few days ago, Luo Yang suddenly remembered the design of anti-theft windows in small high-rise buildings in later generations, and then came up with the idea to come up with such a large anti-theft window setting. Unexpectedly, this thing really worked, not only blocking the Yellow Turban Army
The impact is strong, and it does not affect the attack of the officers and soldiers. It really kills two birds with one stone!
However, Luo Yang also knew that there are prerequisites for this wooden frame to play such a big role. First of all, this kind of wooden frame cannot block arrows. If there are archers in the Yellow Turban Army, this kind of wooden frame will not be able to block arrows.
Next, it was completely useless. Secondly, the Yellow Turban Army lacked siege equipment. From the beginning to the end, they relied on ladders to mount the city wall to launch the charge. As for siege equipment such as rams and manholes, they could not build them at all.
Come out, and this wooden frame is specially designed to prevent climbing. The most important point is that this kind of wooden frame is very simple and quick to make. You just need to find a few logs and tie them with ropes.
Although Nanyang City is temporarily safe now, Luo Yang did not relax his vigilance because of this, because he also knew that the Yellow Turban Army would never give up and would definitely have other tricks to attack the city. But the atmosphere on the city is just like this now.
Very good, Luo Yang would not be stupid enough to ruin the scenery at this time. He even smiled and said to Huang Zhong: "It's not bad! With this thing here! I believe those thieves will not even think of climbing to the top of the city!"
Luo Yang's words were deliberately raised in a loud voice. His heroic words were immediately heard by the officers and soldiers on the city top, and they all echoed loudly. Among these officers and soldiers, there were both regular soldiers who had served before, and some who were just soldiers before.
They are ordinary people's recruits. However, after experiencing this month of bloody battles, these recruits have gradually grown into qualified soldiers. Not to mention anything else, but the chilling aura in their bodies is just like those of veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles.
There is no difference.
After motivating the garrison soldiers, Huang Zhong and Luo Yang smiled at each other, but slowly walked to the corner of the city. After observing that there was no one around, the smile on Huang Zhong's face slowly faded, and he said in a deep voice
: "Zi Hui, the morale in the army can finally be sustained for a while longer. What do you think we will do next?"
Although Huang Zhong is usually a little impulsive, after all, he is also one of the five tiger generals of Shu in the future. How could he be that kind of brainless person? The conversation just now was a scene that had been discussed with Luo Yang. The purpose was
In order to improve the morale of the soldiers on the city. After a month of hard fighting day and night, although they were not defeated, the soldiers' physical strength and spirit have declined a lot. If the morale is not improved, I am afraid the soldiers will not be able to bear it.
Luo Yang sighed and said: "It's hard to say now. The thieves outside the city will never give up taking Nanyang City just because their attack is blocked! Next, they will definitely come up with other ways to attack Nanyang City. We must
Just be careful and take precautions!”
Now Huang Zhong had no doubts about Luo Yang's ability. Dang even nodded in agreement, frowned and glanced at the soldiers on the city wall who were seizing the time to rest, and said: "Nearly two months have passed now!
I wonder when the imperial army will arrive?"
Hearing Huang Zhong's words, Luo Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was only the end of March, and the imperial army should be dispatched soon. However, according to historical records, Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun and Huang Pu would follow.
The army led by the three Songs was attacked head-on by the Yellow Turban Army because they underestimated the enemy. It would have to wait until June for the war situation in Nanyang to turn around. But the question is, will Zhang Mancheng allow himself to wait until then?
?
Of course, Luo Yang would not tell Huang Zhong these things directly. He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said tactfully: "In my opinion, the imperial army may not arrive so quickly! Even if the imperial army is dispatched, first of all
The target should also be the Yellow Turban Army closer to Luoyang. According to intelligence, there are no fewer Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan than here, which is closer to Luoyang City. In order to protect the safety of Luoyang City, the imperial army must first
To attack the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan!"
Luo Yang's inference was reasonable and reasonable. Naturally, Huang Zhong could only sigh long. According to what Luo Yang said, the imperial army could not be counted on for the time being. They still had to rely on themselves to resist the dozens of people outside the city.
An army of thousands of yellow turban thieves.
"General! General! The thieves are here again!" A cry of surprise rang out. Luo Yang and Huang Zhong quickly turned around and looked outside the city. Sure enough, they saw the door of the Yellow Turban Army's barracks outside the city wide open.
Led by several Yellow Turban Army generals, the army rushed toward Nanyang City like a tide.
Luo Yang and Huang Zhong immediately rushed to the center of the city. Huang Zhong raised the sword in his hand and shouted angrily: "The whole army is arrayed! Get ready to meet the enemy!" At the same time, Luo Yang also raised his spear and shouted loudly.
, in response to Huang Zhong’s general order.
Fortunately, the scene between Luo Yang and Huang Zhong was not in vain. At this moment, the morale of the defenders at the top of the city was high. Amidst the shouts of Huang Zhong and Luo Yang, the defenders stood up straight and rushed to the top of the city.
The front line is always ready to fight. After more than a month of fighting, the garrison on the city has been reduced to more than a thousand people. However, the remaining soldiers are all elites who have been baptized by battle.
Coupled with the high morale now, their momentum is not inferior to the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops outside the city.
This attack by the Yellow Turban Army seems to be no different from the previous one. The Yellow Turban Army obviously did not have a good response to the wooden frames on the city wall. Under the desperate impact of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers, several wooden frames were damaged.
However, Luo Yang, who had been prepared, immediately had someone carry out the spare wooden frame from behind and put it on it. At most, he only released dozens of Yellow Turban Army soldiers on the top of the city. However, these Yellow Turban Army soldiers were killed by Huang Zhong and Luo Yang in the blink of an eye.
Beheaded.
After wiping off the blood splattered on his face, Luo Yang looked at the Yellow Turban Army outside the city and frowned. For some reason, he always felt that there was something strange about the Yellow Turban Army's attack this time, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was.
After Huang Zhong chopped down a Yellow Turban soldier who was trying to climb up the wooden frame with one knife, he turned to Luo Yang who was stunned and shouted: "Zihui! What are you doing?"
"Uh!" Luo Yang finally came to his senses. He could only suppress the anxiety in his heart and concentrate on killing the enemy. Although with the help of the wooden frame, it could greatly slow down the attack of the Yellow Turban Army, it did not mean that Luo Yang and the others could take it easy.
Sitting at the top of the city, he raised his spear and accurately stabbed the Yellow Turban soldiers who climbed up the wooden frame through the gaps in the wooden frame. Looking at the resentful eyes before his death, Luo Yang drew out the gun tip without hesitation.
, brought out a few blood arrows, turned around and stabbed out the spear again to kill the enemy.
This battle lasted for more than three hours. Soon, with the sound of drums coming from behind the Yellow Turban Army formation, the Yellow Turban Army's offensive subsided in an instant, and the densely packed Yellow Turban Army soldiers suddenly moved towards
They retreated outside the city, leaving only corpses on the ground.
"Bah! What a fucking unlucky person!" Huang Zhong spat blood-streaked saliva and looked at the Yellow Turban troops retreating outside the city with a look of reluctance. Just by accident, Huang Zhong was hit by a Yellow Turban soldier.
The knife of the Yellow Turban soldier directly hit the side of Huang Zhong's helmet. Fortunately, the knife in the hand of the Yellow Turban soldier was just a rusty hatchet, and it was swung through a wooden frame. Although it hit the helmet
However, the helmet was not cut open, but Huang Zhong's mouth was broken by the impact of the knife. Of course, the fate of the Yellow Turban Army soldier was that he was cut in two by Huang Zhong's large knife.
Half.
Luo Yang was lying on the top of the city, staring closely at the retreating Yellow Turban Army formation, but his face did not look happy at all for repelling the Yellow Turban Army's attack. Huang Zhong cursed and babbled a few words beside him.
After that, he also discovered something was wrong with Luo Yang, so he stepped forward and asked, "Zi Hui, what's wrong? Are you injured?"
Luo Yang shook his head, glanced at Huang Zhong, hesitated again and again, and asked: "General Huang! Do you see anything wrong with the Yellow Turban Army's attack today?"
"Something's wrong?" Huang Zhong couldn't help but was stunned, but then he shook his head and said: "I really didn't see it? What? Did you see something wrong?"
Luo Yang smiled bitterly. If he had seen it, he wouldn't be so distressed. But now that he has thought about it so much, he still can't think of a clue. He can only put aside his uneasiness for the time being. He took a deep breath and said
: "Maybe it's my imagination! Okay! General Huang! Let's clean up the battlefield!"
ps: Well, I'm sorry, last night Xiaomajia and a few friends went out to a party, played all night, and didn't get up until after ten o'clock. This delayed the update, so I will make up for it now.
