Chapter seven hundred and eighth bloody battle on Kang
Compared with Shangkang, Xiakang is now facing a greater test. Gao Xingwang is obviously not comparable to Qin Lifeng. The Bao Tao Guard Jingrui led by him is naturally much better than the Qin family army. Gao Xingwang has a full estimate of Jingrui of the Northern Army and has considered more difficulties. His attack on Xiakang was orderly and strongly resisted by Zeng Ke. He returned for several days without success, without any confidence in defeating the attackers. Bao Tao Guard fought hard battles and had more bad battles. One wave of attack failed, the second wave immediately moved, with the interval between them very short, and the advantage of military strength allowed Gao Xingwang to calmly rotate his offensive troops.
Compared with the severe tests that Xia Kang Zengke suffered, Shangkang's Shangguan Biao now seems much more calm, but in the long run, Shangguan Biao faces much more serious than Zengke. For two days, Shangguan Biao has faced Qin Lifeng's Qin family army, which is a local armed force that has not been strictly trained. Although it has the equipment of a regular army, their ability is still unable to fully exert the power of these weapons.
Under Gu Lie's supervision, Qin Lifeng attacked Shang Kang night and night. The corpses were buried under Shang Kang City, and the corpses stacked up were several meters high.
Hu Wei's eyes were covered with blood. In two days and two nights, he had already rotated four times and had only slept for less than four hours. Listening to the rumbling drums under the city and looking at the Qin family army who rushed up again, Hu Wei cursed: "Fuck, it's endless! It seems that Qin Lifeng is determined to smash his family's fortune here!"
"It's not whether Qin Lifeng is willing or not, but Gu Lie is forcing him to do this!" Shangguan Biao's voice came from behind.
"General Shangguan!" Hu Wei turned around, "Why are you here? At this time, you should rest."
"Can't sleep!" Shangguan Biao's armor was covered with blood. In order to give his subordinates more rest time, he also joined the rotation lineup. Fortunately, Shangkang City is not a big city. Every time he organizes two thousand people to defend the city, it is enough to make no blind spots on the city. If the city is big, the five thousand of them will really care about their heads and butts.
"Gu Lie has a good plan!" Shangguan Biao said: "He did not treat Qin Lifeng's army as a human being, and used fatigue tactics frantically to exhaust us physically and mentally. Then the main force of the Leopard Guard used a thunder strike to defeat us."
"Even if you know, there is no way!" Hu Wei shook his head and said, "General Shangguan, when will General Wang's reinforcements arrive?"
Shangguan Biao hesitated for a moment and slowly said: "There are no reinforcements!"
"Ah!" Hu Wei was stunned for a moment, "Why, in Taikang, our fifth battalion still has more than 15,000 jinglings. If the large army comes up, we are not afraid of our opponents at all."
"I only know that our Northern Army is next to a huge flag, and we are just a small pawn in the front. All we have to do is to obey absolutely. Ten days, we need to stick to it for ten days and then retreat to Taikang." Shangguan Biao looked at Hu Wei, "It's enough that you know this news, no extrapolation is allowed."
"I will understand, but I don't understand."
"Soldiers take obeying orders as their duty, you don't need to understand!" Shangguan Biao said fiercely, paused for a moment, and relaxed his tone, "Hu Wei, I don't understand if I don't want to say you!"
"But what should I do now?" Hu Wei pointed at the Qin family army who rushed up like an ant under the city, "It's not a big deal to continue fighting like this."
Shangguan Biao narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment, "Let them come to the city."
“Up to the city?”
"Notify the second post and arrange all the thunder fires. After the Qin family army goes to the city, let them get a foothold and give them a foothold. The more they come up, the better!" Shangguan Biao's narrowed eyes were full of murderous aura. "First let them be overjoyed, then let them fall into hell. I want to use one blow to make the Qin family army lose their combat effectiveness."
"This, this is too risky!" Hu Wei murmured.
"We can't let these bastards consume our jing power endlessly. Our opponent is Gu Lie!" Shangguan Biao sneered. "Let's make arrangements!"
"yes!"
The Qin family army was at the end of its strength at this time. Before the 20,000 troops left Qinjiabao, they had not yet arrived at Shangkang City, and the casualties and the collapsed were as many as 5,000 people. The remaining 15,000 people were resting for several days and were replenished. After receiving supplies, they mustered up the courage to attack Shangkang again. After two days and two nights of uninterrupted attack, they suffered thousands of casualties, but they did not even climb up the city. The morale in the army was extremely low, and even Qin Lifeng, who was full of hatred, felt that he could not fight. But looking at the Gu Lie army who was waiting for battle behind him, and looking at the commander of the supervising army sent by Gu Lie to him, Qin Lie knew that he had no way out, either fighting to the death or losing power completely.
He decided to go alone and devote all his strength to the attack, led by his second son Qin Zuoyin himself.
Standing under the Central Army and watching the Qin family army rushing towards Shangkang like water, Qin Lifeng knew that if he could not attack Shangkang City this time, his attack would be completely failed. The five thousand people who attacked this time were his last capital.
The siege cars slowly approached, and ladders were set up, and the soldiers ants came up, and the counterattack on the city followed. Seeing the soldiers on the ladder falling down like dumplings, Qin Lifeng lowered his head and dared not look again.
"General Qin, look, you've broken through!" The commander sent by Gu Lie next to him suddenly screamed. Qin Lifeng was shocked and raised his head in surprise and joy. Sure enough, on the left side of Shangkang City, several teams of Qin's soldiers had already climbed to the top of the city at this time.
"I've gone up, I've gone up!" Qin Lifeng trembled excitedly. Although it was the first time he attacked the city wall, it was enough to make him excited.
"The right side has also broken through!" someone shouted.
On the right side of the city, another group of people broke up onto the city wall. You can see that the Northern Army on the city was running anxiously, as if mobilizing troops to remedy these broken places.
"Beat the drum, beat the drum, attack with all your strength, everyone!" Qin Lifeng waved his arms and roared at the top of his lungs. He turned his head and said to the officer of the Leopard Guard beside him: "Please send troops to respond immediately!"
The supervisor nodded, "Don't worry, General Gu is watching too, you don't need to remind him!"
In fact, when the first team of Qin's soldiers climbed the city wall, war drums and rumbling footsteps had sounded from the Baotao Guards' army behind him, and Gu Lie was approaching the battlefield.
Qin Zuoyin jumped from the siege cart onto the city wall amid the thunderous drums, stepped onto the ground with his feet. He let out a long sigh. As long as he went to the city, everything would be easy.
The city wall about a thousand meters long was covered with soldiers from the Qin family army. At this time, Qin Zuoyin saw the highest general of the Zhengbei Army on the city tower, the Ranger General, looking at him with a sneer on his face. Next, Qin Zuoyin saw that, on the other side of the city wall, rows of things like iron cabinets, the soldiers of the Zhengbei Army were like swords and guns, without any panic.
His heart sank slightly. He subconsciously stopped, and behind him, the soldiers were already rushing up like water.
The sharp roar roared at this moment,
Short arrows, like heavy rain, came wildly above a distance of dozens of meters. The distance was so close that these short arrows could cause harm to the second person after they penetrated the body of the first person. Rows of soldiers from the Qin family fell to the ground. In an instant, the soldiers in front of Qin Zuoyin were almost wiped out.
Qin Zuoyin suddenly threw himself to the ground, and the sound of linoleum on his head was in Qin. The short arrows seemed endless. He turned his head and saw that in the rain of arrows, the dense soldiers behind him were sank to the ground, rows of rows.
The battle on the city was not clear under the city. The soldiers behind blocked their sight. All they could see was the backs of their soldiers. Further away, Gu Lie was originally happy on his face, and his smile slowly condensed, "No!" he blurted out.
"What's wrong with General?" asked the central officer.
"Look at the thunder cannon in Kang City!"
"Yes, their thunderbolt cannons are still shè!"
"Their process did not shrink, and they were still blocking the attack, and they were orderly and did not seem panic at all. They still felt extremely layered. Do you think this is an army that was about to be broken into the city?" Gu Lie asked in a deep voice.
The officer in the middle was stunned and looked up at the city in the distance again. At this moment, he had already understood the answer. Because the Qin family soldiers who had just attacked had turned around and fled downwards, they climbed the ladder, jumped towards the siege car, and fled down desperately. The lineup that seemed extremely thick before was already sparse at this time. From the gap between these people, you could see that the Zhengbei Army was neatly pursuing the opponents still in the city.
From great joy to great sorrow, Qin Lifeng was as stupid as a chubby. Suddenly, he realized that his only surviving son, Qin Zuoyin, was still in the city.
"Make silver!" he shouted.
As if he heard his call, Qin Zuoyin's figure appeared on the top of the city. He jumped up to the top of the city in a mess, jumped into the air, and jumped towards the siege car about one meter away from the city. He wanted to follow the siege car and escape down the city. As soon as he jumped into the air, a huge sound of breaking through the air came from behind him. Shangguan Biao picked up an iron spear and threw it at Qin Zuoyin. The sharp iron spear pierced his chest with the sound of wind. His hands grabbed the railing of the siege car, stopped for a moment, and then fell down with a bang.
Qin Lifeng's eyes turned black and fell from the war horse.
Shangkang and Xiakang were experiencing a bloody battle, while Taikang was nervously building fortifications. Yao Changkun booked the battlefield to defeat Jiang Guangyu under Taikang City. At this time, Yao Changkun was meeting another crucial figure in the battle in a small village about two hundred miles away from Liangzhou City, Bo Lu, the commander of the Mongolian Army.
