Chapter 714 Offensive and Defensive Battles

After thinking about it, Jia Xu decided that if the situation was really powerless, he would abandon Xiliang and retire to Hanzhong, in order not to have an accident, Jia Xu sent someone to notify Zhong Xuan and Zhang Lu in advance, so that they could be psychologically prepared.

As for whether they will accept it, Jia Xu is not sure, it really can't be, he will choose to forcibly occupy a place to defend against the enemy.

With Jia Xu's series of arrangements, the Kushan army, under the leadership of Rahul, finally reached the territory of Anding.

However, everything in front of them made the Kushan soldiers and Rahul look ugly.

Everywhere there are burned down houses, some of them are still on fire, apparently it happened not long ago, as for the figures, I searched everywhere, but Mao did not find them.

I originally wanted to have a good slaughter and vent, but now it's okay, I can only move on.

After settling Linjing City, the guards burned Ge, and learned that the Guishan army had entered to kill, and the number exceeded expectations, so he hurriedly sent someone Pegasus to inform Jia Xu, and then prepared to defend to the death.

Under the city of Linjing, a few days ago, he came up with a disgusting plan, and ordered people to pour obscurity within ten meters of the city wall, so the smell was stinking.

Rahul marched all the way, and finally saw the manned tower, his tightly knit eyebrows stretched a little, and after a closer look, he saw that although the defenders were more numerous than before, they were also within the scope of the breach, so he ordered the army to attack directly.

The Kushan army marched all the way, and it was already unable to hold back, and after receiving the order, the bee chrysalis rushed to the city wall, which could enter within hundreds of meters, and couldn't help but slow down.

"What does it taste like, wow...... Uh......"

"It stinks......"

……

It was already July and August, and these obscure things were exposed to the sun and poured by burning and pouring, and they were already like thin mud and smelly.

Although the commanders of the Kushan tribes could not stand the smell, they still endured it and ordered the army to maintain an offensive formation, so as not to disfavor Rahul in the rear and lead to death.

"Don't stop, whoever is stopping, kill it!"

Hearing the order, the Kushan army had no choice but to endure the pungent smell and rush to the city wall.

Erecting a special siege ladder, the Kushan army gritted their teeth and began to climb, praying in their hearts not to be hit by the falling instruments above, and at the same time imagining the looting after the city was broken, encouraging themselves to suppress their fear.

Seeing the Kushan army attacking the city, Yao Ge took out the defense skills taught by Jia Xu and ordered people to move boulders and rolling logs, and pour the heated hot oil down.

Being hit by a boulder, it's better, you can lose your life directly, it won't be so painful, but the army of Kushan who was splashed with hot oil screamed again and again.

The hot oil is paired with the sparse and obscure things under the city, it is a deadly weapon, it is itchy and painful, if you scratch it, the skin will be ulcerated and the flesh and blood will be blurred.

The constant screams and excitement in his ears made the Guishan soldiers speed up, but the Qiang soldiers who defended the city also fought to the death.

Although there are many Kushan troops, it is impossible to break through the city quickly, and the only way to kill the defenders is to kill them.

Seeing that the progress of the attack was not as expected, Rahul's face dropped a little, and he issued a urging order, and gave a deadline for sunset to enter the city.

In the face of the death order, the Kushan army had no choice but to keep filling it with human lives, but if they wanted to take it in the dark, there was still no hope.

As night fell, Rahul was forced to order his troops to be withdrawn and set up camp outside the city, ready to attack again tomorrow.

When the defenders saw the enemy retreating, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and their tense hearts eased a little, but they did not take it lightly, and immediately arranged soldiers to patrol after resting for a while, and set up secret posts outside the city to guard against possible night attacks.

The big tent of Rahul, since the collection of troops and the encampment, has been full of people, and they are all straight, trembling and not daring to speak.

In front of Rahul, there was wine and food, and he drank and poured himself alone, and when he felt seven or eight points full, he put down the half-eaten beef leg and swept it around with cold eyes.

"Hmph." Rahul smiled sarcastically and asked slowly: "How do you feel, Ben Shuai remembers, the last time he didn't complete the order, he still attacked the so-called capital of Huazim, but right now, it is a small city of the Han people, and you can't attack it!?" ”

Rahul's suddenly aggravated voice made everyone tremble, and even their breathing slowed down.

Seeing everyone like this, Rahul was slightly satisfied in his heart, but he still said coldly: "No matter what, tomorrow the sun is in the middle, the city must be taken, and no matter how many lives are paid, it will not hesitate." ”

Today's siege of the city, more than 3,000 people were killed and more than 7,000 wounded, although the losses were great, but for Rahul, it was not worth mentioning at all, because most of the dead were slave soldiers.

The deadline, these Guishan generals knew very well that if they couldn't complete it, even if there was no danger to their lives, they might be severely punished, and they were all worried.

The Commander of the Great Capital, Yu Sai, thought for a moment and respectfully asked, "Honorable commander, do we have the right to choose the time for the siege?" ”

Rahul thought for a while, waved his hand, and said: "Whatever you want, anyway, the commander only looks at the result, and if you want to attack the city now, you can also go." ”

When Wang Yusai heard the answer, he had a plan in his heart, saluted respectfully, and stepped aside.

After waiting for a moment, seeing that no one was asking questions, Rahul let them go boredly, ready to rest.

When these Kushan generals left and returned to their headquarters, they gave orders for their subordinates to hurry up their time to rest, and pointed out that the city would be attacked early in the morning.

Today's siege, these Kushan soldiers have already produced shadows, and when they hear that they will attack the city again tomorrow morning, they can't help but think of those soldiers who were splashed with hot oil.

For this kind of skin trauma, there are non-fatal ones, and no one in the Guishan army can treat them at all, because their treatment methods are even more backward than those of the Han Dynasty, and they are more barbaric, and some are only minor injuries but will be treated into major injuries.

Moreover, at this time, the commanders of Guishan are all focused on attacking the city, and they will not care about these people, so as long as they are injured, they can only die in endless pain.

These soldiers knew the outcome very well in their hearts, but they were powerless to resist, because if they fled or resisted, as long as they failed, what awaited them was even more torture than death, which each of them had seen with his own eyes.

Although they were afraid in their hearts, the Guishan soldiers were obedient and obedient, forcing themselves to fall asleep and try to keep themselves in the best condition for tomorrow's siege.

In the city, after cooking Ge Ge, he inspected and confirmed that there were no mistakes, so he returned to his residence in the city, recorded the matter of defending the city today, and sent someone to pass it to Jia Xu to see if he could get instructions for the next step.

Due to the tension of the war, Jia Xute selected dozens of fast horses from the army as the use of transmitting information, and the distance between the three cities was also carefully planned, and the fast horses ran non-stop for more than ten hours, which could be reached.

The next day, the sky was slightly bright, and under the city of Yicheng, as soon as he rode hundreds of meters away, he began to shout. "Urgent!! Open the city gate quickly......"
