Chapter 576 Siege Battle

The news of the Wu Yue army's invasion soon spread to the city, and the people began to feel panic and ran around to tell each other.

There was a commander of a flying cavalry to convey the news and ran to the General's Mansion, the Governor's Mansion and others to report the news.

General Lu Jiang, Governor Wang Yuechao, Supervisor Su Chen and others received the news as soon as possible and rushed to the south gate to meet.

When Su Chenchen and others gathered on the city tower, they saw the formations outside the city like a forest, and the Wu Yue soldiers had already arranged their formations, including cavalry phalanx, spear phalanx, sword phalanx, heavy armored phalanx, bow and arrow phalanx, etc., strictly

Order, neatly arranged.

Forty or fifty thousand troops, all lined up under the city, forming a powerful force against Runzhou City.

It gives people a feeling of black clouds swaying the city, making people feel a little breathless.

There were only three thousand defenders on the top of the city. Seeing this formation of thousands of troops, he felt a little trembling.

Lu Jiang immediately sent an order to go to the military camp to mobilize the troops in the city.

Mobilize five armies to come, and five Du Yuhou lead five armies, each with 2,500 troops, to the city gate to stand by. Once the siege battle begins, replace the city one after another and replenish the city head at any time.

Injured soldiers.

"Abide by the order!"

After one of the chief commanders got off the city and began to rush to the military camp in the city, asking for orders from generals and mobilizing personnel to come to the state of waiting for war.

General Lu Jiang looked at the situation of the military formation outside the city and said, "This Song Chengli has a great reputation in Wuyue Kingdom. It is said that he is familiar with military strategy. He defeated our Tang army on the frontier several years ago. This time he led his troops. First,

After conquering the border and taking Changzhou City, we must fight against him, be extremely careful and not careless."

Su Chen nodded when he heard this. He didn't know much about Song Chengli, because such a historical figure may have only one name in the history textbook, and his life and deeds have not been described in detail.

Su Chen knew Han Xizai, Li Yu, Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Pu, these are all historical celebrities, and they used a lot of pen and ink to leave their names in history. However, in small countries like Wu Yue, in addition to Qian Chu, there are also some pen and ink introductions.

Song Chengli's description is very small.

Therefore, even as a time traveler, Su Chen had no impression of Song Chengli, so he could only analyze it in detail based on the actual situation.

The governor Wang Yuechao said, "I didn't expect that the Wu Yue soldiers were really anxious. They just arrived today and had not set up camp yet, so they couldn't wait to attack the city. This is to give our army a warning."

Lu Jiang said: This is a plan of General Song, a Wu Yue soldier. He plans to make a move. If we take advantage of our defense and slacking off the city and take down the city of Runzhou in one fell swoop, it is also his plan. However, we have already done it.

After several previews, they just waited for his troops to arrive. They wanted to simply take the Runzhou rope on the first day, which was too underestimated."

Dongdong! Dongdongdong!

With drums blowing loudly, people and horses have begun to be mobilized outside the city, and some siege equipment has been formed.

For example, some rushing cars, rushing cars, climbing ladders, etc. were also prepared in the Wu Yue soldiers' phalanx and distributed to the corresponding siege teams. According to the posture, the siege battle was about to begin.

Bao Zhi, the vanguard of Wu Yue's army, walked to Song Chengli, and said with a fist: "General Song, please allow the last general to lead troops to attack Runzhou City to avenge the last Danshui defeat. I will lead troops to take Runzhou.

, rush into the city, slaughter blood, and avenge the dead children."

Song Chengli said: "Okay, this time the siege team will let your vanguard army join. This time, you must give the Tang army a look. If you can take the opportunity to take down the city walls of Runzhou, it will be considered as a meritorious service and return to the court.

I will remember you as a first skill.”

Bao Zhi clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for General Song's trust. The last general will be determined to be unfair. We must fight with the Tang army to the end and siege Runzhou!"

Song Chengli nodded and said, "Okay, take the order flag and prepare to attack the city!"

"Get the order!" Bao Zhi took over the order flag, took over the order flag, then turned around and headed to the vanguard army where he was. After conveying the order, he was ready to attack the city at any time."

"General order, prepare to attack the city!"

The commander held the command flag and ran in the military formation, shouting loudly.

After hearing this command, all the soldiers were energetic and looked forward with a fierce look.

At the same time, the drum sound began to become denser, and the drum sound became more and more urgent, representing the momentum and signal of the attack.

The Wu Yue soldiers began to step forward, with five thousand men and horses neatly formed, moving like a mountain, magnificently, and shouting slogans: Break the city, break the city, break the city!

Bao Zhi finally shouted to attack. The five thousand men no longer stepped forward, but began to run forward, pushing the cart, rushing, and carrying the ladder, and starting to attack the city.

When General Lu Jiang on the top of the city saw this situation, he immediately ordered: "After the enemy enters the land of one arrow, start shooting arrows!"

The so-called land of an arrow is the distance of the arrow shot from a longbow.

When the Wu Yue soldiers entered this range, the archers at the top of the city board stepped forward and began to shoot wildly at the Wu Yue soldiers under the Wu Yue city.

Whoosh swish swish swish swish!

The arrows broke through the air and rang out, pouring densely from the city like cold rain. Two or three thousand arrows were lost.

After these arrows were lost, they were shot hard within the range of the siege troops. Some Wu Yue soldiers held shields and used Teng shields, iron shields, wooden shields, etc. to resist the shooting of this cold arrow.

Some Wu Yue soldiers hid behind the chariot, or combined them with long boards to protect the chariot and move forward slowly.

The archers on the top of the city have the advantage of geographical advantages. When shooting arrows from a high place, they can easily shoot the soldiers under the city.

Pup puff puff, some active soldiers fell to the ground by arrows and began to scream.

Some people were shot in the arm, some were shot in the shoulder and thigh.

"Ah, I'm hit by an arrow!"

Some soldiers screamed and fell to the ground and felt so painful.

The military medical team that was shuttled through the army began to carry the wounded and retreat, while the soldiers who were shot in the arrow rushed to the city with their swords and guns, and the soldiers carried the floating ladder in their hands, preparing to climb the city.

They rushed forward quickly with shields and short blades in their hands, supported the ladder, climbed the ladder on the city wall, and began to climb.

At this time, General Song Chengli ordered again to let the archers phalanx suppress the defenders on the city.

Suddenly, the five thousand bows and arrows under the city began to shoot out, and the arrows rushed towards the city like locusts and sprinkled in Runzhou City.

The Marquis of Du Yu said to Lu Jiang and Su Chen: "General Lu, General Su Jun, please move to the city tower. There are a lot of losses here, which is very dangerous."

Lu Jiang nodded and said, "Okay!"
Chapter completed!
