Lord of the House: Chapter 46 sky lantern

(Second update, ask for red votes! Voting red votes will form a good habit, and I will try my best to develop a good habit of two updates a day!)

Azige's resentment is hard to be settled. Counting the Jiangdong Zuo Army who rushed to help Yangxin and the remnants of Shaowu Town who retreated into Yangxin, there are more than 2,500 soldiers in Yangxin City who can fight. , a full force of more than 12,000 troops.

The soldiers are pressing down, but they dare not directly attack the city of Yangxin. Where can there be the blood and courage of the Donghu man?

Azige walked around Zhulongpo camp on horseback. After Cangnan's defeat, he seized military power and could no longer lead troops. Without soldiers in his hand, he would not be able to avenge Nayan and Natuzhen.

The sky gradually darkened, Azige did not need to lead his troops, and he was not restrained when he roamed around the camp. The moonlight in the sky was still good, and the campfire illuminated the snow on Zhulongpo more transparently, like a dimly lit evening.

It has to be said that Mo Jiben's subordinates are still capable of setting up camps. The first soldiers and horses have been camping in Zhulongpo for three or four days, and there is not a single ghost in the camp. Mo Jiben led the Han army to come over in only two days. With time, this village has a look. On the front of Zhulongpo, seven or eight camps are connected, and they are spread directly to the foot of the mountain to the east of Zhulongpo, which is only two miles away from the northwest corner of Yangxin City. According to Mo Jiben's plan, he had to dig Hao fortresses outside the north gate and west city of Yangxin overnight. The mud dug in the ditch was piled up into an earth wall, and it was poured with water and frozen overnight, which became an ice wall, and only three or four remained. There is an exit, and the outpost troops monitoring the city gate can quickly retreat to the encirclement to resist when the defenders attack. After calming down and thinking about it, although Mo Jiben's method took two more days, it was very effective to restrict the defenders from attacking.

Azig took the spur and thought to himself: How can I identify with these boneless traitors? They must have some ambition, and the iron hoofs of the Dadonghu Khanate can no longer trample on this snow.

Seeing from a distance that the northern city of Yangxin was also lit with lights, there seemed to be a few places attached to the crenellation wall. Azige felt strange, and heard the sentry outside the north city screaming. It seemed that he was stimulated and extremely angry. Ge Da Ma came over to see what happened. Before Azige approached, dozens of sentries outside the north city rushed to the north gate of Yangxin without authorization. Azige was shocked, and the third prince issued a strict order not to attack the city without authorization. These sentries were eaten. What leopard gall?

The arrows and arrows of the rolling stone and wood fell, and the sentries that rushed to the north city suffered heavy casualties. At this time, the gate of the north city suddenly opened, and more than a hundred cavalry rushed out, smashing and killing the sentries outside the north city. The Han army and civilians who built fortresses outside, the scene was suddenly chaotic.

Azigre stopped his horse and did not dare to go forward. The defending cavalry who rushed out of the city did not leave the city until a large number of Zhulongpo cavalry rushed down.

Azig galloped to the outside of the north city, where the lights outside the stack of walls were lights, but he didn't know what method the defenders used to make the dozen or so stripped corpses hanging outside the stack wall like lights at the belly button. to light.

Jiangdong Zuojun even used Donghu's man's body to light the sky lantern! Azige's blood was surging, and he could not wait to pull out his sword and jump up to the top of the city, and cut the demon in blue armor and red helmet to seventeen or eighteen paragraphs to relieve his hatred.

"You bastard, siege the city without authorization, I dare not listen to my orders!" He personally brought troops to help Ye Jiduodi and angrily took a horse whip and beat a few sentries that escaped, not only the fortresses outside the north city. The Han army and the people were killed and scattered, and more than 30 sentry cavalry died. It is not clear whether the other sentry cavalry outside the three city gates were provoked like this.

Just because of such a little trick by the defenders, this side was completely in disarray. Naturally, Ye Jiduodi was furious and sent his men to the other three cities to restrain the sentries. This kind of thing could never happen again. The man in blue armor and red helmet hated to the bone, swore to capture Yangxin, he would slaughter the city to vent his hatred!

Mo Jiben looked at the hanging corpse who was lighting the sky lantern at the head of the city, and his scalp was numb. Mo Jiben had never seen Lin Fu, but up to now, Lin Fu has also made him feel like thunder, almost every prisoner mentioned that he would grit his teeth and defeat the Donghu strong team again and again with 3,000 underdogs. , some fame is also deserved. Now he hangs Hu Bing's body out of the city to light the sky lantern, which undoubtedly shows his determination to stick to Yangxin, never give up, let alone surrender. Mo Jiben regrets inviting Yangxin to fight, right? Wrong decision. Anyway, to drive the soldiers to attack the city anyway, this amount of troops will be exhausted, as long as you don't lose your life. Mo Jiben understood in his heart that the imperial court had been unable to suppress Donghu over the years. It was better to vote early than to vote late. If the city was not defended, even if he escaped, he would still have to be beheaded for the crime, and even his family could not be saved.

****************

Lin Bie stood leaning against the opening of the piled wall, looking at the soldiers outside the city, Ao Canghai turned his head and smiled: "There are many generals gathered there, I really didn't expect that we are still hiding a weapon in the front of the city. , I might be able to kill a big fish this time!" With a wave of his hand, he quietly filled the eight crossbows to the left and right to be flush with the opening of the stack wall, so that the sergeant used the winch to wind the string. The head sounded very clear, but the prisoners gathered in front of the outer fortress of the city did not notice it at all.

These prisoners will think that they are standing outside the shooting range of the squatting crossbow, but they are within the shooting range of the bed crossbow and the throwing range of the scorpion crossbow. There were also stone bullets in the leather pocket.

Lin Fu glanced back and instructed the soldiers, saying, "Calm down, it's just a chance, if you can catch a big fish, it's a waste of money, and if you don't catch it, there's no loss..."

Ao Canghai saw that the soldiers were almost adjusted. In fact, he couldn't expect the accuracy of the bed crossbow and the scorpion crossbow to be shot three hundred paces away.

Ao Canghai decisively waved his hand to cut down and ordered to fire. Eight special crossbow arrows as large as spears and more than 20 scattered star **** shot at the captive soldiers in front of the siege with a whistling sound.

*************

Ye Jiduodi was whipping the disobedient sentry that was attacking the city without authorization. He heard the whistling sound of breaking through the air. He looked up and saw Hanmang shot. He only had time to turn over and hide on the left side of the horse's belly. A giant arrow pierced his beloved jujube mare, and the three-tailed arrow penetrated from the side of the horse's spine, pierced deeply into the ice, and the splashed ice chips made his face hurt. Before he could react, a stone bullet slammed into the shinbone of his left leg with a "click" sound, and the shinbone was undoubtedly broken. The guards on the left and right stood in front of him regardless of their health, and the two guards dragged him to hide behind the chest-high trench wall...

Ye Jiduo bit his lip with his teeth, and only then did he feel the huge pain in his left leg. He resisted the pain and did not faint. He was helped to stand up. He twitched inside, and the head of his guard, deputy counselor, was hit by a stone bullet. In addition to the smashed bones of his feet, in addition, the sergeant leader of the sentry in charge of monitoring outside the north city was hit by a stone bullet in the chest. Although he was dragged to the back of the fence in time, although he was wearing armor, he vomited blood and saw that he couldn't. live.

Ye Jiduo hated his teeth so much that Lin Fu was a beast. At this moment, he could not wait to peel Lin Fu from cramps.

There are obviously bed crossbows and catapults on the north city tower. These days, the defenders keep going out of the city to harass them, but the bed crossbows and catapults have been kept silent, not showing any signs, just waiting for their side to lose their defenses, thinking that two hundred When fifty paces was a safe distance, they lit sky lanterns with the corpses of Donghu warriors, provoked the sentries to attack the city irrationally, and lured them, the generals, to come to the city gate to reprimand the manic and restless sentries. The long-standing crossbow and catapult made a deadly sneak attack.

Of course, Ye Jiduodi did not know that these bed crossbows and scorpion crossbows were transported into Yangxin City along with Ning Ze's officials the night before yesterday because of the lack of outposts outside the city.

Ye Jiduodi wished he could pull out his sword and slash and slash to vent his anger. The siege had not been fought yet, not only did he break his leg, but also caused the Dadonghu Khanate to lose two brave warriors.

"The Great Yue Divine Crossbow, slaying the enemy and standing up for power, the eastern captive children, crap!" At this time, the defenders at the city head shouted together, repeatedly shouting this sixteen-character children's song. The cavalry here couldn't take it anymore, and they approached the city to shoot arrows, but they counterattacked with the bows and crossbows that had a longer range.

Ye Jiduo was able to endure the huge pain in his leg, but he couldn't bear the pain in his heart. His face was ashen with anger, and he roared viciously to make the cavalry retreat. He glared at Mo Jiben and said word by word. : "I'll give you two more days, I want to see the Han army push the city to attack the city!"

Mo Jiben had a gray face. Just now, a crossbow arrow stuck to his body and shot into the air. It plunged into the ice chips splashed by the soil, and made a very shallow wound on his face. The fright was not small.

Na Hexiongqi heard that Ye Jiduo's crossbow was hit by a crossbow in front of the city gate. Not only did Ye Jiduo's leg bones get discounted, but a ginseng leader and Ye Jiduo's guard and deputy sergeant were both be beaten to death. He rushed over from Zhulongpo's camp on horseback, and he hated to pick up the whip and stab Ye Jiduo's guards in the face, and scolded: "Bastard, Jiangdong Zuojun has at least eight bed crossbows, how many times have I reminded you? , All generals who are in command of the enemy must not approach the top four hundred paces of the city! This is your first time as a bodyguard!"

Although Ye Jiduodi said that his anger was uncontrollable, his reason was still there, and he said in a deep voice, "Xiongqi, don't blame him, I was negligent. If I can't stay awake, you will supervise the whole army!"

"I know!" He Xiongqi replied.

No matter what, He Xiongqi knew that this Yangxin must be attacked hard. If he didn't fight a battle, he would besiege a city and be exhausted. The third prince, Ye Jiduo, broke his left leg for Jiangdong Zuojun, not to mention Ye Jiduo. Dy's face is difficult to pass, which involves the morale and fighting will of the Jiangdong Zuo Army in the future when Dong Hu Jian'er meets Jiangdong's left army in a narrow way.

Fortunately, when Ye Jiduo went down to Zhulongpo~www.mtlnovel.com~, he led a large group of cavalry to help here, otherwise Ye Jiduo was suddenly attacked and injured in front of the city gate, and the city would take advantage of the chaos to kill a team of elite cavalry. There is no need to fight this battle any more, just lose it directly back to Jinan...

Azige looked up at the head of Yangxin City with a lingering fear, and only then did he really know that blood and courage alone can't fight cunning enemies. Cangnan was defeated, and he could still say that Jiangdong Zuojun was lucky, Nayan and Natu were really inadvertent to fall into a trick, but this repeated and repeated setback also made him fully appreciate the cunning of Jiangdong Zuojun And treacherous, Jiangdong Zuojun is an elite that is completely different from ordinary southern soldiers.

Azige followed Ye Jiduo's guards and escorted Ye Jiduo back to Zhulongpo's camp for treatment. Na Hexiongqi stayed behind for Ye Jiduo's army. He stood behind the fence and stared at Yangxin City. head, secretly planning.

Attacking Yangxin, it is not possible to rely entirely on the Han army who surrendered. These Han forces can attack other cities in the city. Fighting against the Jiangdong Zuo Army, whether it is morale, fighting will, or combat ability, is far worse than what Lin Bie mastered in the city. With more than 2,000 elites, and since the Jiangdong Left Army had a huge advantage in defending the city, the 6,000 soldiers under Mo Jiben's command would probably not be enough. The soldiers of the Donghu tribe must also dismount to fight. If it is possible, they can also transfer Zhao Jinlong, the commander of the right capital of the Han army, to strengthen the offensive against Yangxin, He Xiongqi thought to himself.

This time, all strategic objectives have been completed. Since there is still some time before the river is thawed, troops are sent east to break through the city to harass.

Even if the eastward advance is blocked, it doesn't matter, but Jiangdong Zuojun has to pull the nail, otherwise he will have to fight with Jiangdong Zuojun when the next edge is broken.

Jiangdong Zuojun is a new army that has only been recruited for more than three months. It is so powerful. When we meet again next time, won't it be more difficult to deal with? My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
