Chapter 0033: The Beginning of the Night Battle (Asking for Votes, Asking for Receipts, Asking for Clicks)
The battle on the city wall became more and more intense, and Yu Shan's bloodstains suddenly appeared in front of Yue Fei's eyes.
"General Yue, go down quickly! It's too dangerous here, and I don't have anything to do to keep you safe. Yu Shan yelled at Yue Fei.
General Yue is the chief general designated by the lord to guard the city, he must not have an accident, Yu Shan thought so.
"Leave me alone. Even if I die, I won't go down. Yue Fei was calm and said categorically.
Yu Shan has been getting along with General Yue for more than half a month, and he knows General Yue's temper. Since he said that he can't go down when he dies, he really can't go down if he dies.
Helplessly, he stomped his foot fiercely, and Yu Shan could only turn around and kill the enemy who pounced on him. Since General Yue can't go down, let yourself kill all the enemies who can threaten him.
……
Yu Wen's siege troops were like a sharp long arrow, and suddenly pierced the key point of Quanzhou City.
The shield soldier held his shield aloft and shielded his own soldiers. There were not many defenders on the city gate, and the long arrows fired were sparse, and there was no threat at all.
During the period of attacking Quanzhou City, the Yellow Turban Army only attacked the city gate twice, which greatly paralyzed the defenders who were not strong enough to defend it, so they luckily thought that the enemy would no longer be reluctant to lose a large number of troops to attack the city gate, so they repeatedly drew strength from here to replenish other places.
The ramming cart was getting faster and faster, and the soldiers pushing the cart were already galloping. The shield soldiers protecting them were no longer able to keep up with the rhythm, and the gaps in their defenses were getting bigger and bigger.
About fifty paces from the city gate, the residual heat finally exploded.
"Brothers, rush ......" Yu Wen kicked away a shield soldier who was blocking his way, and suddenly roared loudly.
The wildness of the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army had already been stimulated by the imposing crash car, and in the shouts of the afterglow, they removed the shield soldiers around them, and no longer cared about the long arrows flying in the air, shouted loudly, pushed the huge crash car with all their strength, and rushed towards the two closed city gates without hesitation.
The soldier who fell from the arrow was either crushed in half by the whirling wheels or trampled to death by his speeding companions. Everyone's emotions went crazy with the roaring carts crashing into the city, they roared and ran, and they couldn't see anything but the city gates.
The shieldmen did not forget their mission, and they stubbornly held their long shields high and flew closely behind.
The defenders on the gate tower angrily shot long arrows one after another, knowing that they were powerless to stop the enemy's onslaught, but they knew that they had to hold on, and they must not take a step back.
The war drums on the gatehouse were beaten violently, and the low and rapid war drums suddenly overwhelmed the enemy's drum horns, and suddenly sounded above Quanzhou City.
"Boom...... An earth-shattering loud bang came from the city gate hole.
The soldiers on the battlefield felt that the earth was shaking, and the city walls were shaking, as if the entire city of Quanzhou was shaking with a sound.
Yue Fei woke up from the bloody battle in front of him, and he raised his eyes in surprise to look at the city gate tower.
……
A touch of the setting sun slowly sank to the horizon, and the curtain of night was slowly pulled up.
Dozens of huge fires suddenly lit up outside Quanzhou City, and the firelight illuminated Quanzhou City in the night, highlighting the bloody battlefield to be extremely terrifying and miserable.
Yue Fei stood on the city gate tower, looking at the firelight in the dark night, and let out a sigh helplessly.
Cheng Pu sent someone to tell him that Gao Xiang's troops on the west side of the city wall were attacking very fiercely, and although the enemy attacked intermittently, his own soldiers suffered heavy losses and could only barely maintain the situation. He concluded that the lord's reinforcements had reached the Gu River, and if they attacked all the way, they should be able to reach Quanzhou City tomorrow.
Zhang Yi, the commander of Quanzhou County, sent food and weapons from the city, he stood beside Yue Fei, silently looked at the army of the Yellow Turban Army in the distance, and asked very worriedly: "General Yue, do you think Captain Cheng's words are credible?" ”
"Is it credible or not?" Yue Fei said lightly, "Do we have any other choice than holding on to the city?" ”
Zhang Yi was silent.
With Zhang Yi's heart, he hoped that Li Yi would lose the battle, and it would be better if he could die in the chaos. That demonic kid has brought him too many nightmares in the last three years or so. He knew that if that kid didn't die, he wouldn't be able to wake up from a nightmare.
However, as Yue Fei said, now they have no choice but to hold on to the city. Because in Li Yi's hands, he can at least survive, and even get some money. Although that demonic kid is terrifying, he still turns a blind eye to some things, as long as it is not too excessive.
However, once the city is lost and he falls into the hands of the Yellow Turban thieves, he will really die.
It is absolutely impossible for the Yellow Turban Thief to let him go, the county commander appointed by the imperial court!
Therefore, now he can only hope that Li Yi can win the battle and exterminate the Yellow Turban thieves outside the city.
However, with the current situation of Quanzhou City, there is no chance of winning at all.
Ambition and subjective desire are not enough, but also strength.
Yue Fei didn't look at Zhang Yi again, he knew that this county order was a ghost who was afraid of death. But it was precisely because this guy was a ghost who was afraid of death that the lord spared his life. At this moment, he should have some careful thoughts, but Yue Fei didn't care. Just like the lord said, this guy has a thief's heart but not a thief's courage, and with the great "prestige" of the yellow turban thief under the city, Zhang Yi didn't dare to have the idea of surrendering to him at all.
……
The thunderous sound of war drums suddenly pierced the dark silence, and the Yellow Turbans began to attack again.
Yu Shan led the last thirty soldiers of the reserve to rush towards the surging enemy.
The gap must not be opened, and once the gap is opened in the defensive front, the result can be the collapse of the entire defensive front. Even if you use a corpse to block it, you have to plug it up.
Yu Shan fought hard and took the lead, wielding a war knife to kill the enemy. He was met by a centurion of the Yellow Turban Army with several long arrows in his body. The Yushan people followed the knife, grabbed the opponent's flank, and hacked him to death with a single sword. Immediately after that, he fell into the fierce siege of the three soldiers of the other side.
The warriors around Yu Shan kept screaming and falling down. No one retreated, everyone was red-eyed, and they forgot what life was.
The Yellow Turban Army was even more crazy, after paying a heavy price and returning several times in vain, it finally grabbed a piece of territory in the second half of the night, how could it be easily given up?
Before dying, a Yellow Turban soldier slashed a knife and cut off one of the defenders' legs.
The defender with the broken leg was immediately stabbed several times, but he found a cushion on his back, and he was pierced through the body by a shot, and he cut off the hands of the gunman.
The spear-wielding Yellow Turban soldier's hands were chopped off, and the screams were heart-rending in severe pain, and he didn't even notice the knife inserted into his chest.
A Yellow Turban soldier and a defender collided angrily, each stabbing their knives into each other's bodies.
The Yellow Turban soldiers who climbed up the ladder had not yet fully climbed the city wall, and the long arrows in their hands had already been fired.
A defender who was fighting with the Yellow Turban soldiers nearby was pierced through his body by a long arrow, and the defenders did not say a word, revealing an empty door for the enemy soldier to slash. Just when the blood was pouring out, he suddenly took advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness and succeeded in one blow, and then howled wildly, gathered up his remaining strength, and staggered to kill the Yellow Turban archers who had jumped into the city wall.
The Yellow Turban soldier shot another arrow, and the defender soldier was covered in blood, and was carried backwards by the impact of the arrow, and finally died of exhaustion.
