Chapter 697

With the soldiers close to the wall, the city wall battle of the most fierce ant attack began. The guard, who had been preparing for several days, threw a piece of prepared rolling stone toward the taxi under the city. He was attacking the city along the siege ladder. The taxi was smacked down from the ladder and fell directly under the city with a long scream.

At the same time, the long-range attack of Sizhou army has stopped completely, but the archers at the head of the city can shoot at the bottom of the city without fear. Although it is only scattering, it has a great impact on the taxi drivers below the city. On the one hand, we need to be on guard against the arrows from the city at any time, on the other hand, we need to attack the city desperately.

Apart from Pang Tong, there are two other people around Huangfu Chaobo. One is Dian man, the eldest son of Dian Wei. The boy is already 13 years old, but his figure can be regarded as a boy of 16 or 17 years old. The other is Hao Zhao of Bingzhou, a great general valued by Huangfu Chaobo. Although he is only ten years old now, he has been growing up in the general's mansion for many years, but he is already twelve or thirteen years old.

This time, Huangfu Chaobo thought that he would bring the two children a long insight.

In fact, Dian man has been able to enter the army for training, but he has been pressed by Huangfu Chaobo. In addition to practicing martial arts every day, he also studies the art of war with Hao Zhao, just as Huangfu Chaobo trained Huang Xu and his brother and sister. Huangfu Chaobo also hopes that Dian man can get rid of his father's reputation and become a brave and resourceful general.

Standing on the vanguard car, looking at the fierce battle ahead, Pang Tong explained to them all kinds of knowledge about siege and defense. For them, this is a very rare opportunity.

Time passed quickly. By noon, though Hanoi army was fighting to the death, there was still little progress. In the morning, it had not been able to attack the city. However, by this time, more than 14000 soldiers had attacked in turn, with 3000 casualties.

Seeing this, Huangfu Chaobo looked at Pang Tong. Pang Tong also nodded and said, "Lord, let's call for the Golden Army. The situation of the closed garrison is probably clear. The army will rest and attack again in the afternoon! "

Huangfu Chaobo also nodded and ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

With the sound of a whistling, the Hanoi army, which was attacking, retreated like a tide. Of course, the returned taxis did not forget to add the siege equipment together with the injured ones. At this time, Jinglan and the catapult attacked the wall again to cover the retreat of the nurses.

A moment later, the Hanoi army returned safely. After Sima Lang placed the army behind Zhong'an, he quickly led a group of aristocratic children to the Chinese army. As soon as they saw Huangfu Chaobo, they all fell to their knees and said in unison, "we are incompetent. If we fail to attack the fortress, please punish us."

"It's all right. As you can see from the performance of the army just now, it's not that you don't work hard, but that the garrison is really strong and it's not the crime of war. General, please get up and lead the soldiers back to the camp to rest. "

"Thank you for your kindness After lunch and a short rest in the afternoon, the army continued to attack Jiguan. However, in the afternoon, the attack was replaced by the garrison of Luoyang. According to Pang Tong and Zhao Yun's arrangement, it is impossible to attack such a strong pass. In the early stage, the garrison can only keep constant pressure on the garrison in the pass. In the appropriate period, the elite horses can be used to attack the pass city.

Su Zhi was in charge of the war this time. Compared with the soldiers of Hanoi family in the morning, it is obvious that he had a much more accurate grasp of the war. The attack in the afternoon lasted only for more than an hour, and then the troops withdrew. The main reason was that the army was attacking from east to west. At 3:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m., the sun had a great influence on the soldiers, so at Pang Tong's suggestion, the attack ended.

The attack in the afternoon made the army lose more than 1000 people again. However, it made the soldiers attack the Wall twice. Although they didn't hold on for long enough to let the Hedong army drive down the wall, compared with the war in the morning, they have made great progress.

At the same time, Pang Tong called the Xie family's children in chixian county and inquired about the surrounding situation carefully. Then he sent people to look for ordinary people who were familiar with Jiguan, hoping to find a path around to the back of Jiguan and echo with the attack in front of it.

In the evening, Zhao Yun arranged for soldiers to harass him all night, but Pang Tong insisted.

The next two days were still the same. With the experience of the previous day, Pang Tong discussed with Zhao Yun that the Garrison should be divided into several units and attacked by several generals in turn. The purpose was not only to train troops, but also to train generals.

In such a three-day period, the 70000 defenders basically took turns. At this time, the defenders in the pass had already suffered a lot. In addition, the harassment every night made the morale of the defenders drop a lot.

On the morning of the 18th, Pang Tong suggested that Zhao Yun could consider breaking the barrier. Moreover, now it's time to harvest grain. If he can't enter Hedong boundary as soon as possible, once the grain is harvested, Jiang Pei will have more capital to defend the city.

With the sound of the horn, the army was ready to go again. Today's battle is under Zhao Yun's command of Longxiang camp. Although Zhao Yun did not lead the battle in person, this battle was fought by Su Zhi, in addition to Wang Yong, the Deputy General of Longxiang camp, and Zuo Xiao. Yang Feng and Dian Wei will also fight.What Pang Tong means is that with the attacks of the previous few days, we should be able to beat the drum today. Originally, Huangfu Chaobo wanted the pro guard camp to attack, but Zhao Yun stopped him. Yuanrong crossbow soldiers are more suitable for guarding and assisting the city, and the trapped camp is more suitable for defense. Although the Iron Eagle sharps are suitable for attacking the city, there are still more important things to do, that is to pursue.

Because after Jiguan, there is a mountain road as long as one or two hundred Li. In the target army, the Iron Eagle sharps are more suitable for pursuing. After thinking about it, Huangfu thought it was reasonable, so he agreed to Zhao Yun's arrangement.

On the wall, Jiang Jian looks at the Sizhou army several miles away from the wall. Although he is not a famous general, he can also feel that the soldiers who are fighting this time are not ordinary soldiers. Standing on the wall, she can clearly feel the killing atmosphere from far away.

In his opinion, today's war should be the last one on the top of Jiguan.

"Jiang Jian!" Without looking back, Jiang Jian said in a loud voice,

"general, what can I do for you?" A young player next to him stepped forward and said,

"how are you getting ready?" In other people's ears, there may be some inexplicable words, but they know it.
