956 Battle for the City Pass

Under the city walls of Wuyuan County, the fighting continued, the sound of fighting was endless, and there were bursts of shouts, shouts, cries, and painful wails before death, which rose and fell.

The shouts, howls, and shouts of the soldiers on both sides came and went, intertwined with the neighing and mournful voices of the war horses, forming a tragic elegy.

Then, it spread in the wind, was blown away by the wind, and flew into the dark.

As far as the eye can see, there is a chaotic battlefield, full of trenches, gunsmoke in the distance, swords, screams, wails, intertwined into a piece!

On the vast ground, the corpses of countless warriors were piled up, and the blood gushed out and merged into rivers of blood, and the bloody breath came to the face, giving people a dull and hot feeling.

The blood rose, dyeing it a blood-red color.

However, in contrast to the bloody and tragic scenes, the defenders on the city walls are barely in high spirits.

Although the Xiongnu army pressed the border and attacked the war, everyone was angry with the enemy because of this, arousing the same heart, they were all nervously busy under the leadership of their respective team leaders, and the city wall was shrouded in an atmosphere of bloody battle to the end.

Especially when Wang Hua was present, he nodded all the way and gave everyone confidence.

Even in the face of the pressure of the Huns, his surface was very calm, and he couldn't see the pressure and tension in his heart at all, seeing his smile, the soldiers and civilians he met along the way unconsciously relaxed a lot, and they became more energetic in their work.

There were even teams of men and strong women, carrying and preparing rolling logs and stones to the city walls.

There was another pot of gold juice next to it, and even though it was steaming hot, everyone was still in full swing.

After seeing Wang Hua, these people all saluted him respectfully.

Their eyes are full of expectation, tens of thousands of Hun troops, it makes people scared when they think about it, they are all frightened and helpless, fortunately, with the presence of Lord Wang, they can only hope that Lord Wang will lead them to win.

Each of them said to Wang Hua: "Don't worry, no matter how many Huns come, we will follow your side, as long as your lord gives you an order." ”

Wang Hua was only moved by this, and made a deep sigh: "There are all the fathers, villagers, and brothers." ”

...

In stark contrast to the city walls, the Huns and Han soldiers whose attacks were blocked and the atmosphere became a little sluggish.

"Damn! A broken city gate actually caused my casualties to be so heavy. Outside the city wall, Yu Hu, who had retreated to the Hun camp, also scolded and scolded, with a look of unhappiness.

After all, as a besieging party, they still don't have too many siege equipment, and their losses are still very large.

Even with the cover of archers, when the soldiers under his command filled in the trench and cleared the horses, antler wood, and thistles in front of the trench, there were nearly 500 casualties on Yu Hu's side alone.

There are dozens of them who are the elite under his command, the few soldiers who can wear a full set of armor.

Even they were not able to withstand the onslaught on the walls.

Not to mention those soldiers who had no armor or only cotton armor, they not only had to brave the fire of the Han army's bows and arrows in the city, but when removing the thistles, many of the unarmored soldiers were pierced by the sharp thistles, and many of them were injured in their hands when carrying the horses full of iron thorns.

After it was easy to clear the tribulus terrestris in front of the trench, and after filling a trench of more than ten steps to pass, the soldiers under his command began to cooperate with the Huns, holding the big log and rushing to the city gate.

Here, they were hit by the stone and gold juice of the Han army in the city, and under the fire of the Han army on both sides of the stone and bow and arrow, they also suffered a lot of casualties.

After a period of fighting, from the city wall on the left side of the main gate of Wuyuan County to the distance in front of the trench outside the city pass, the corpses of the Hun soldiers and the howling wounded were lying all over the place.

The deceased all had very large mouths, especially the Hun soldiers who were scalded to death by gold juice and smashed to death by rolling wood and stones, and their bodies looked even more miserable.

Countless corpses lay on the ground, the smell of blood wafting through the air, mixed with the foul stench of feces, and the smell was disgusting.

Under the sun, the smell of blood and the smoke of war, as well as the smell of gold juice, permeated everywhere, and people wanted to vomit.

Yu Hu was wearing dozens of catties of armor on his body, and the unpleasant smell also made his whole body extremely uncomfortable, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his head.

However, he is also a long-time battle-hardened, so he can endure it, and only hopes to take the city as soon as possible, so as to end everything in front of him.

The loss of so many people in these five original counties has already made him very surprised by the combat power and perseverance of the Han army in the city.

At present, the huge number of casualties in the army under his command has even exceeded his original psychological expectations, such as not breaching the city.

If this continues, my own warriors will soon collapse and retreat.

However, the Xiongnu did not stop attacking.

At this time, the Huns seemed to get rid of the tribal military system all of a sudden, and had the appearance of a national army.

They gathered other generals like Yu Hu and instructed them to gather their soldiers and prepare for the next round of fierce attacks.

Soon, a large number of soldiers and horses once again beetled to Wuyuan Chengguan.

The battle is on.

Both the Xiongnu and Han people saw the extremely cold light in each other's eyes.

The Han sergeants near the city pass were all pursed and their chests rose and fell rapidly, just nervously watching the movement under the city wall, and then counterattacking.

"Whoosh!"

The sound of bowstrings seemed to ring from all sides, and the screams of the soldiers on both sides pierced the void.

Wang Hua took the lead, taking the most elite 100 old soldiers in Wuyuan County, busy on the city wall, struggling to kill the enemy everywhere.

Although many people have become tired in the previous fights, and even when they rest, they sit or lie down to rest.

Even so, many of them are also in old armor, and now they are also following behind Wang Hua, working hard, at least that momentum, compared to them, the ordinary guards are not at the same level at all.

Under the leadership of Wang Hua, they rolled down the rolling wood and stones that had been prepared long ago, as well as the boiling gold juice.

The battle continues, but the materials used for defense are constantly being consumed.

Wang Hua frowned.

It seems that rolling wood and stones can't stop the attack of the Hun soldiers under the city, and they only have one pot of gold juice on their side.

After thinking about it, Wang Hua's voice sounded urgently: "The soldiers at the city gate, refuse to prepare for the horse, and the pikemen will meet the battle!" ”

At the same time, he instructed his subordinates to speak loudly.

Soon, the same sound was heard on the surrounding walls.
