Chapter 487: Don't be a famous academic overlord
Scanning the ministers in the main hall, no one dared to look at Liu Bang!
The majesty of the Han Emperor for many years is still there!
At this time, the sky suddenly darkened, and the rain suddenly poured down!
When the sound of the horn gradually dissipated in the rain curtain, the war drums from the Sui army camp sounded.
The heavy sound of drums pierced through the waterfall-like rain and spread through every military camp outside Dragon City, allowing the sound of marching horns to pierce the sky.
Amid the cheering of drums and trumpets, countless enemies dressed in Han army armor rushed towards Dragon City.
Behind them, there was an army formation composed of Sui people in black armor, which was the most direct reason for supporting these Han troops to move forward bravely towards the original national capital after they rebelled.
Different from the scattered Han army, the Sui people's military formation was strict even in the heavy rain, but the black pressure was like a bear shuttling through the mountains and forests, and what was more powerful than the beasts was that they all carried sharp blades in their hands.
Through the rain curtain, although the number of people looking at the Sui people is not large, in addition to those infantry troops who are pressing the formation, there are only a few Xuanjia cavalry troops roaming around!
The most important thing is the big flag of the word "Yue" erected high, which is as heavy as a ballast stone installed at the bottom of the cabin to stabilize the ship, controlling the battle situation and not shifting to other directions.
Liu Bang is still majestic, and he can still control the ministers to close the inner and outer gates of Dragon City, at this time he came to the first front, stood at the head of the city, and looked at the red and black enemy army at this time!
As if thinking of the battle of Pengcheng at the beginning, he was also full of ambition, intending to kill the overlord in one fell swoop, and then he was almost wiped out!
At this time, all sides of Longcheng were attacked at the same time, and the direction of the main attack was not the north where the enemy camp was located, but the south, which was also the position that Liu Bang's imperial drive was now facing now.
Dragon City is located in the heart of the state; It is surrounded by mountains on three sides in the west, north and east, and the central and southern parts are river valley plains; Since ancient times, it has had the reputation of "controlling the mountains and rivers, standing on the shoulders of the world", "rushing to the four plugs, and controlling the capital of the five plains"!
Of course, Dragon City is also worthy of its name and deserves praise!
The geographical location is dangerous, I will not repeat it one by one, Taihang Mountain is on the left, Luliang Mountain stands on the right, the two mountains in the clouds and the boat are hugged in the back, the Longcheng Plain is spread in front, and the Fenshui runs through the whole territory from north to south, so there are only a few roads left to attack the city.
The Fen River was also led around the whole city, which was equivalent to having a moat several miles wide, so that the forces used to defend the city could be concentrated into a few city gates, and this kind of defense was of course much stronger than scattering the city.
"That's all!"
Seeing that the traitors under the city were swarming at this time, Liu Bang laughed loudly as if he was stupid, he saw that the siege methods that the Sui people might use, and drove so many troops to come, how could there be other uses?
Although he still has to prevent the elite of the Sui army from attacking through the gap, it is inconvenient to send a large force out of the city to drive away the traitors under the city, in fact, he does not dare to send it, at this time in the city, he can still control the situation, if he is released from the city, who knows how many traitors among these people? However, he had other, more suitable troops to assign.
Seeing that the traitors in front of him were rushing towards the city with various siege equipment, Liu Bang ordered without wavering:
"The Imperial Guards are out!"
The gate of the southern city creaked open, and a group of rebels who were rushing to the city under the Sui escort behind looked inside, and immediately fled to both sides with a great change in their faces.
A group of tall horses rushed out of the city gate, and after a little formation in front of the city gate, they immediately rushed forward.
The "Imperial Forest Army" of the Great Han Kingdom is not the Imperial Forest Army of an ordinary country, but a legendary class of troops representing the honor of the Great Han Dynasty!
And it is the top legendary class, the legendary sweat and blood horse, which is the standard configuration of the "Royal Forest Army"!
Under the overturning of the heavy rain, the sweat and blood BMW rushed out of the city gate, kicked up a ball of splash, every step out can cause the ground to tremble, the city gate several zhang wide opened, the jack gate rolled up, dozens of sweat and blood BMW ran side by side together, like a 10,000-pound boulder rolling down on the mountain, its momentum is unstoppable.
The sweaty and bloody horses that rushed out of the city rushed straight into the rebels who were about to pile up many siege equipment under the city, and whether it was the enemy or me, these former colleagues, rushed people away, threw them on the ground, and then stepped on them one by one, one by one, like a bloodthirsty beast, howling, and trampling on the enemy who was crying wolf at his feet, and the fragile human body was trampled to smithereens like a clay man who accidentally fell to the soles of his feet.
Seeing that the rebels were just an impact, they desperately fled as hard as they could, leaving behind the flesh and blood spread out on the ground, Liu Bang, who was watching coldly from the city, only hesitated slightly, and then pointed forward sharply, "Rush me!" ”
If you can give the Sui people a head-on blow at this time, the next defense will be much easier, and the Great Han Kingdom may not be able to get a respite.
He also knew in his heart that his courtiers were not necessarily wholeheartedly mutinied, and now it was just a choice under the general trend, if the Great Han Kingdom could have a chance to breathe, it might not be impossible to win back some people's hearts!
Hearing the order of the general at the head of the city, the leader of the Imperial Forest Army, who was immersed in the excitement of killing, turned around without delay, aimed at the same target and went straight to the Sui army that was pressing the formation.
As a thousand-mile horse, the sweaty BMW is extraordinary, much taller than an ordinary horse, and the sergeant who can ride the sweaty BMW is also tall and large, plus a body of armor, almost all weigh thousands of pounds!
At this time, the Imperial Forest Army of the Great Han Kingdom lined up as a riding wall, and hundreds of horsemen rode side by side, the speed became faster and faster, and the weight of nearly a thousand catties sprinted up, and the ground began to tremble at this time.
The Han army at the head of the city also cooperated and began to sing triumphant songs loudly, their singing was far away, it should have been very vague, but Yue Fei, who was watching the battle under the Sui army flag outside the city, was clearly audible!
There was a person standing next to Yue Fei at this time, this person was slender, with a bee waist and ape back, straight like a handsome scholar, but looking at his face, anyone could recognize him!
This person has eyes and eyes, and he has a vision!
"The Guards...... Yue Shuai, allow me to rush with Xiao Guowei! ”
Yue Fei shook his head at this time and said, "General Yu, don't worry, it's not the time yet!" ”
Yue Fei had his own considerations, and at this time he rejected Yu Juluo!
"Henkel is also a generation of heroes, but at this time, he can only survive like this, thinking that he can win in this way?
Yue Fei, you said it, Henkel and I will deal with it! ”
A man in armor beside Yue Fei was talking at this time, not giving Yue Fei any face, looking at his face, his eyes were also heavy-eyed, and he looked like a fish!
"He just thought he could defeat our army!" Yu Juluo sneered at this time and said, "Liu Bang probably doesn't know how much land the Han Kingdom has lost before this!" ”
"People always have a gambling nature, and at this time, Liu Bang also had to gamble." Among the generals, there were also people who felt sorry for Liu Bang.
These people around Yue Fei are not all Sui generals, there are those who have the heart to take revenge at this time, there are Han generals who are forced to surrender, and there are also Han generals who take the initiative to surrender!
When heaven and earth come together, the heroes are not free; When the Han Kingdom is in turmoil now, there are not no people who still want to take this ship, but it is a very small number, and the rest are ready to get off the ship early at this time!
Especially after getting the news of the defeat of the Wei Qing army, not only those ordinary families, but even those top families who are resting with the Han Kingdom and the country are going to fall, and the first ones are the "Wei" and "Huo" families!
Even those vassal kings of the Han Kingdom sent messengers at this time, such as Liu Xiu!
The Han cavalry rushed wildly, and the rebels in front of them fled one after another, they were originally forced to come, and after being forced to surrender, they were ordered to be a force husband, resist carrying ordnance, and even more to be attacked by sufficient death squads, naturally they would not be used as a barrier for the Sui army!
But the Sui troops in front of them did not waver at all, and on the outside of the armor was a layer of oilcloth ponchos, and hidden under the ponchos were crossbows that had been opened.
The crossbow of the Sui army was originally a sharp weapon in the world, and the Ministry of Industry of the Great Sui Dynasty went one step further after absorbing the craftsmen and technologies of the original Qin, Song and other countries!
If the power of the bow and crossbow soaked in rain is about the same as the power of a stone bow, but the bow and crossbow of the Sui army were specially wrapped in oilcloth, oiled, and sealed in a box with lime, so the bow and crossbow they used at this time could still maintain the strength above the level.
However, when the arrows passed through the pouring rain, most of them were hit, and rows of Han cavalry fell, but the Han cavalry behind them still rushed up without fear of death!
In the sound of "whoosh", the Sui army's crossbow arrows have been fired five times in a row, killing and injuring many Han army cavalry! However, the Han army war horses are all heavily armored, and even the horses are wrapped in battle armor, and three or five crossbow arrows can shoot a Han army war horse!
However, there were still a large number of Han army horsemen who rushed through the crossbow array!
"Good!" Liu Bang at the head of the city applauded loudly, and the defenders behind him were also thunderous with joy, and even some of the important ministers of the Han State who were originally speechless also changed color slightly at this time!
But Liu Bang's smile only existed for a short time, and the Sui army's methods were far more than a bow and crossbow.
The crossbowmen who had been in front of them dispersed and retreated into the rear to equip their bows and crossbows, and behind them appeared a ballista, all of which were huge ballistae with five arrows and one shot, and the crossbow arrows were all giant crossbow arrows seven feet long!
"Launch!" The commander shouted in a low voice, and one after another crossbow arrows "swished" out in the sound of the machine.
In ancient times, humans took simple javelins with stone and sharpened the head of the spear, and put all the giant beasts on the earth into the recipe, and now humans have learned to use tools, replacing the throwing spear with a crossbow arrow with a steel blade, just the first blow, the crossbow arrow that flew out penetrated at least three horses!
I saw that the Han army fell neatly in rows at this time, and the formation of the Han army was suddenly chaotic, if it was just one person, it would not be able to block the way if it died, but if three people fell in a row, it was enough to block the way of the charge, so that the formation of the Han army was no longer so fierce!
The soldiers of the Sui army, who were standing behind the ballista and were ready, immediately jumped up after the ballista shot, and then raised their single knives and rushed towards the Han army.
These nimble soldiers, when they came to the front of the Han army, suddenly bent down and rolled into the Han army's cavalry formation, and their swords flashed!
Cut at the leg of the Han horse, even if it is a Han rider covered with armor, the horse leg will not have to wear armor, and of course it can't be worn!
For people, it is ten fingers connected to the heart, and for horses, the legs are their most important parts, if they lose their legs, how can they move, even if they can't stand, they are hit their legs, and they immediately go crazy, even if they only hurt one leg, they start to run around!
Horses are very intelligent animals, and even each has a different personality, hearing the wail of their companions' injuries, smelling the strong smell of blood, some of the horses rushed forward, and some stopped to watch, although the long-trained war horses can do it like an arm, but that is in the case of the horse intact, even if the person is injured, under the threat of death, will go crazy, not to mention these horses, in such a situation, there is no way to control.
The cavalry formation of the Han army was suddenly chaotic!
The fierce cavalry attacked, but the seemingly invincible offensive only took a moment to collapse.
The military formation is chaotic, then it can't become a threat, the legendary class is strong, but it is one enemy ten, this is still under the bonus of the military formation, one-on-one, it is good to be able to have one enemy and three, looking at the sudden change in the situation, those rebels who were originally dispersed surrounded each other, they are all villains who see the wind and rudder, but they are also warriors, as long as the opponent is a single knight who can not charge, three or five people can easily solve one person.
The victory over the Imperial Forest Army, which can almost be regarded as a killer weapon, except for the rain in the sky, has not been able to stop the Sui army from moving towards victory.
Liu Bang's miserable white face, the appearance of being drenched in the rain was very embarrassed, but he was still unwilling to admit defeat, if he could resist the offensive of the Sui army with the help of the city wall, as long as three or five days, maybe there would be the arrival of the Qin Wang army, and three or five days would allow him to identify some loyal people.
It's just that the Sui army didn't give him this time, and the siege equipment was gradually pushed under the city by the original Han rebels, and gradually set up a road to attack the head of Longcheng.
At this time, under the internal contradictions of the Han army, there was not even the threat of bows and arrows, and the remaining loyal defenders in the city could not and did not dare to attack.
Liu Bang looked down at the Sui army that was gradually approaching under the city, and returned to Pengcheng that year in a trance, Xiang Yu at that time was not so cumbersome, but rushed directly to the city, and killed the defenders at the head of the city with only one person, and then it was a big defeat, I remember that I seemed to be as desperate as I was at this time?
Liu Bang turned around and looked at the generals with hasty faces, but he didn't speak, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty. A henchman rushed in front of him frantically at this time, "Your Majesty, the city has been opened!" ”
It's the same, I remember that I didn't know who opened the city gate at that time, and then the Chu cavalry who rushed outside the city rushed into the city, and Xiang Yu couldn't break Pengcheng with only one person!
At this time, can he still meet an opponent like Xiang Yu?
