Chapter 63: If You Don't Work Hard, We're Waste (1st Update)
"The general wants the city of Liangzhou to be safe and sound, the general wants the Western Regions to be thousands of miles away, and all the countries and tribes tremble and obey under the hooves of the general"!
Chen Ying's words were loud, and the generals listened with enthusiasm. One day, one night, twelve hours, flying for 600 miles, defeating the enemy, looking at the world, who else can I be?
Chen Ying took the lead in stepping on the war horse and began to walk slowly. In fact, there is a difference between a horse and a horse, but there is a difference of thousands of miles. In other words, the principle of walking a horse is like a race walk, no matter when, one foot of a person always falls on the ground, and the world record of walking is three and a half hours, and the average speed is equivalent to 14.5 kilometers per hour. This speed is actually faster than normal running. The same is true for walking horses, war horses have four legs, walking on the ground respectively, although the speed is not as good as the earliest speed of war horses running, but it is better to last.
While ordering the troops to advance in a horse-walking manner, Chen Ying silently muttered in his heart, he must hold on, in addition to his own dreams, Chen Yingqi must also protect his son, let him grow up safely, and let him get ahead.
Marching on horses is a great test of the physical strength and endurance of the soldiers, not to mention eating and sleeping, even peeing and, all of which have to be solved on horseback. Because there is no room for delay.
In order to avoid urinating and pooping on horseback, Chen Ying had to be like other soldiers, and when he was so hungry that he couldn't stand it, he definitely ate an extra mouthful of dry food and didn't drink more water.
From noon to the time of arrival, for six hours, Chen Ying only drank less than half a liter of water, and only ate a few mouthfuls of dry food, even if it was a horse, the physical strength of these war horses and soldiers had been almost exhausted.
The soldier, who fell asleep with his eyes closed, accidentally fell off his horse and fell to pieces. Suddenly, a war horse carrying a marching tent collapsed to the ground foaming at the mouth. The surrounding soldiers didn't look at it, they directly unloaded the tent and set it on fire, and the war horse that collapsed on the ground was also stabbed into the heart by the soldiers, ending its pain.
Luo Shixin walked behind Chen Ying in silence, his mouth was already full of blisters, I don't know if it was because of the lack of water or the formation of fire. Luo Shixin muttered: "Most of the war horses have reached the limit, not to mention the people, Brother Chen, the brothers have tried their best, and they can't hold on!" ”
"No...... I can keep it up! Chen Ying didn't care about the thirty-seven twenty-one, poured a few mouthfuls of water, and shouted at the top of his throat: "Brothers, there are our compatriots in Liangzhou City, and now Liangzhou City may be broken by the Western Turks at any time, once Liangzhou City is broken, the robes in the city will definitely be slaughtered, we are not afraid, but the head is off, the bowl is a big scar, but the worst thing is our sisters, in that kind of riot, they will be worse than dead!" We don't want our compatriots to suffer such devastation again, so we will move forward! Arrive in Liangzhou before the Western Turks break through the city, and use the hook and sickle in our hands, Mo knives, and horizontal knives to teach the Turks how to behave. ”
"Teach the Turks how to be human with a hook and sickle and a Mo knife!"
The soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Army and the Mo Dao Army echoed weakly.
Chen Ying heard this and said angrily: "Haven't the fuck eaten? No matter what you do, before noon tomorrow, you must arrive at the city of Liangzhou, Lao Tzu's subordinates don't want to be seeded, and they won't be able to get to Liangzhou at noon tomorrow. ”
Chen Ying's voice sounded from time to time throughout the marching procession. These soldiers seemed to be hypnotized by Chen Ying's voice, as long as they heard Chen Ying's voice, these soldiers exuded endless power.
In fact, the soldiers who have seen Chen Ying know very well that Chen Ying is neither as tall as Luo Shixin, nor as strong as Zhang Shigui and Zhang Huaiwei, but this man is the backbone of all of them and their god.
The sound of horses' hooves was loud, and the formation was crooked.
Su Dingfang looked at Chen Ying's illusory figure and had a feeling of unreality. He even wondered if he was dreaming, six hours, six hours, their army actually arrived at Shoulu Mountain, if his memory was not bad, now they had actually entered the territory of Wuwei County in the Han Dynasty, less than three hundred miles away from Liangzhou City.
From Mingsha County to Shoulu Mountain, it is almost equivalent to three hundred and forty miles, and the march of three hundred and forty miles in six hours is simply the same as flying.
At the beginning, Chen Ying said that he would arrive in Liangzhou City in twelve hours, Su Dingfang thought that Chen Ying was bragging, and he gave a task that was impossible to complete, but unconsciously, the Xiao cavalry actually did it, according to this marching speed, it seems not impossible to arrive in Liangzhou City before noon tomorrow.
However, when Su Dingfang looked at the soldiers who were already crumbling on horseback, he hesitated in his heart. Now that the soldiers have reached the extreme, can they still hold on?
Su Dingfang's heart hung in his throat, but these soldiers staggered all the way, looking at the time when they were about to fall, a whip exploded in the air.
The soldiers, who were about to fall, immediately recovered their spirits and continued on their way.
……
In fact, the same state of mind as Su Dingfang is Tongye Hu Khan, every time he thinks he can attack Liangzhou City, but the defenders in Liangzhou City have broken out stubborn resistance, squeezing out the swarming Western Turkic army.
Now that the city gate holes have been dug on all sides of Liangzhou City, he can take advantage of the numerical advantage and attack the four city gate holes at the same time.
However, this is only a drop in the bucket.
Because each city gate hole is amazing, dozens or hundreds of people can pour in, even if the city gates are on all sides, the number of troops invested at one time is less than a thousand. But in the same way, because there are only four city gate caves to defend, although the rest of the dead soldiers have caused a lot of casualties to the ordinary Tang army, but because the city gate caves can come in handy, the number of troops is also less than a thousand.
Li Daozong can also calmly arrange defensive forces, and can even replace the troops in a rhythmic and orderly manner, so that the elite troops can recover their strength.
In fact, the elite troops in the hands of Li Daozong are not much, only four Zhichong Mansion more than 6,000 people, it is based on Chen Ying's old foundation of the Dingyuan army, these soldiers are not only well-equipped, but also fight in the style of Chen Ying, they line up in a dense hook and sickle array of guns, rest the dead in local fights, often a rest of the dead, at the same time in the face of several Tang soldiers, although the hook sickle gun can not pierce the heavy armor of the rest of the dead soldiers, but can use the advantage of the hook of the hook and sickle, the rest of the dead soldiers hook to the ground, and then like a dead dog, Dragged back to their own camp and dragged to the Tang Army's camp of the rest of the dead soldiers, they immediately faced countless horizontal knives or spears, no matter how strong the armor was, in fact, the neck, face and armpits were all weaknesses, but these Tang soldiers just greeted the weakness of the rest of the dead soldiers, horizontal knives, hook sickles, and even mallets, with the rest of the dead soldiers, they smashed without a head.
Those dead soldiers who rested in peace were either smashed alive, or as soon as they fell to the ground, they immediately raised their hands and surrendered.
After all, dead soldiers are human beings, and they have the instinct and desire to survive, and in order to survive, they can be dogs and cannon fodder for the Western Turks.
However, this kind of skirmish battle was extremely tragic, and in just one day, more than half of the more than 8,000 dead soldiers had been killed, and correspondingly, the Tang army also paid five or six thousand casualties.
Li Daozong was covered in blood, leaned on the bed crossbow cart, and laughed: "Tong Ye protects this thief chieftain, he will not use soldiers, if he attacks the city from all sides, even if the chief manager has three heads and six arms, he will not be able to parry, I knew this, this chief will open the four gates of Liangzhou City, and guard the four gates, and there is no need to lose so many soldiers!" ”
Don't look at the fierce battles at the four city gates of Liangzhou now, and the shouts of killing are shocking. Every now and then, soldiers are killed or wounded, but since then, the casualties have been greatly reduced.
In the past, when defending the Liangzhou city wall, the Turkic army outside Liangzhou City, tens of thousands of cavalry at every turn, and at the same time carried out suppressive covering archery on Liangzhou City, arrows rained down, in that case, the casualty number of the defenders of Liangzhou City rose sharply, especially when Tongye Hu used Greek fire, once a sea of fire was formed on the city wall, it was hundreds of thousands of Tang Army soldiers, who were swept in the sea of fire.
It can be said that since Liangzhou was surrounded by the Western Turks, seventy percent of the casualties of the Tang defenders were caused by Western Turkic bows and arrows or Greek fire.
However, during the attack on Chengmendong, the Western Turkic army's arrow rain was suppressed, and the Greek fire could not be used, so the casualties of the Tang army were reduced a lot.
Under such circumstances, the rest of the dead soldiers could not break through for a long time, and Tong Yehu suddenly became anxious. He finally sent the most elite detachment of the Western Turks.
With a burst of commotion, Li Daozong could vaguely see that the soldiers of the Western Turkic Annexed Army wearing silver armor were waving thistles and slowly moving forward. These Western Turkic detachment troops are also wearing heavy armor, but because of their tall stature, the weapons in their hands are not knives and guns, but iron thistles made of stainless steel, which are like maces and weigh forty or fifty pounds of iron thistle, in the hands of the soldiers of the attached army, it is like lamp grass.
Attached to the detachment army to attack, very domineering. The tribulus terrestris in their hands smashed the heads of those who stood in front of them, whether they were resting soldiers or Tang Army soldiers.
As this swarthy thistle flew in the air, whether it was the dead or the Tang soldiers, they were smashed layer by layer, and the corpses at the city gate were stacked in several layers, and the blood soaked to the ankles.
The rest of the dead soldiers are already frightened, regardless of the escape, the result of the big sky scrambling to escape is that no one can escape, so they can only crowd there and let people smash it.
The soldiers of the Tang Army also wanted to cry without tears, these attached soldiers fought really fiercely, even if they were hooked to the ground by the hook and sickle, the iron thistle in their hands swept away, and seven or eight Tang soldiers were swept to the ground.
Puff puff puff......
Click......
The sound of thistles hitting the head or breaking legs and feet rang out from time to time.
The Tang army soldiers were defeated one after another, and a panicked Tang army general ran to Li Daozong and said in fear: "General Manager Li, what should we do now?" ”
"Of course you have to fight! If you don't stop these Turks and let them rush into the city, Liangzhou City will be finished! Li Daozong roared: "Guards, follow me to ......"
The general, looking at the people of Liangzhou in the distance, the people of Liangzhou who were trembling said, "How can you fight!" It's all messed up like this, how can you fight! Is it worth it to work hard for this bunch of waste? ”
"If we don't work hard, then we're waste!" Li Daozong said: "Tang Dynasty children, follow me to ......"
"Poof......
A mixture of warm blood and brain drop sprayed Li Daozong's face. He watched as under the attack of the Western Turkic Detachment Army, which had already killed him. And at this time, countless people in Liangzhou, carrying packages on their backs, actually fled as they prepared to take advantage of the enemy's breakthrough of the city.
A deep sense of powerlessness surged into Li Daozong's heart.
