Chapter 797: Sunrise in the East (22)

He Dayou is a veteran and is always the most sensitive to changes on the battlefield. This wave of enemy attacks is obviously different from the previous wave. The opponent's morale is higher and their skills look much more vigorous.

"Throw the wood, beat the wood!" he shouted loudly. Several soldiers carried a tree stump as thick as the mouth of a bowl and rushed up from behind. They raised their hands high and climbed down the ladders. Just like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, it swept away the enemies climbing on the ladder. But at this moment when they raised their hands to release the wood, several people were hit by arrows and fell to the ground at the same time. The archery skills of the palace guards were indeed a bit too accurate. People feel terrified. As soon as you lean out, there will be whistling arrows flying into the sky.

"Use the push rod, use the push rod!" He Dayou picked up a push rod from the ground, put it on the ladder, roared, and wanted to push the ladder away, but at this time there were many people climbing on the ladder. Dong Hu Bing, how could he push it alone? Several people around him rushed over and pushed the push rod hard. The ladder swayed away from the city wall and fell down. The Dong Hu Bing on top would either fall down with hands or feet. , or cling to the ladder and fall down together with the ladder.

Hassan was lucky. The companions around him fell like dumplings, but the ladder he climbed was safe and sound. While climbing up quickly, Hassan saw that his ladder was actually shorter than the ones next to him. He did not reach the top of the city wall. Perhaps because of this, the other party did not notice this. This made him very happy and at the same time accelerated his climb.

A head poked out and met the gaze of Hassan who was looking up. The soldier above was obviously startled and ducked. When he poked his head out again, he already had a stone in his hand and was about to smash it down. Hassan waved his hand. The noose between his left hands flew out with a whine, landing squarely on the man's head. As soon as his hands tightened, the soldier was pulled forward and leaned forward. He fell directly from the city wall, and the stone fell with him, grazing Hassan's body and falling with a muffled sound.

Hassan leaned out of the city wall, hugged the battlements with his free left hand, jumped up, and was finally the first to stand on the city wall, waving the scimitar in his hand. He jumped from the top of the city

He Dayou rushed here when the young man moving the rocks was caught in the rope and fell. Although it was only two or three steps away, it was really hard for him to get up quickly. When he arrived here By then, Hassan had jumped off the city wall

Hassan paid no attention to this grey-haired old soldier. He slashed his head with a knife and glanced left and right at the same time. On the city wall, the defenders were not densely packed, just as the officer said before. There are not enough enemy troops in the city. It's really strange why they can resist for so long.

But then, he immediately understood

He wielded a machete with his strong arms. Even if the opponent held the knife, he would definitely not be able to stop him. However, the opponent did not make any such movement to parry.

He was slashing forward with his sword, but his opponent was stabbing him straight with his sword. It seems that he didn't see the scimitar whizzing down above his head.

Of course, Hassan didn't want to die with such a lame old man. He could only turn sideways. Sheathing the knife, there was a bang. He stabbed his opponent in the chest. His strength was so great that after blocking He Dayou's knife, he slashed back, but this knife was aimed at the opponent's neck.

The same plot was played out again. He Dayou seemed not to see the light of the knife coming towards him. The knife was swung back and slashed diagonally across the wrist, cutting off Hassan's waist and hip. Both of these strikes were carried out. He Dayou was dead. Damn it, Hassan would have to lose half his life even if he didn't die. On the city wall, in the enemy's nest, let alone half his life, even if he was injured, it would be difficult to survive.

Hassan can only retreat

He Dayou's eyes were red, dragging a lame leg. He took a step forward and stabbed straight into the chest. He took another step forward and stabbed straight into the chest again. No matter whether the opponent was hacking, slashing or slashing, he would trade his life for his life.

On the battlefield, only by giving up your life first can you exchange for the enemy's life. What Gao Yuan said to these veterans back then is still regarded as a golden rule by these veterans. On the battlefield, the competition is to see who is less afraid of death.

"Madmen, the Eastern Army are all madmen!" Hassan turned around. There was no one to respond to the place where he climbed up. The madman in front of him was obviously a man who didn't care about his life. There were already people surrounding him. Hassan didn't want to die like this. His brother had already died in the Loop, and my grandfather had gone there again. There were no men left in the family, and in Donghu, a family couldn't survive without a man to support it.

He blocked He Dayou's chest stab with force, then climbed up the wall. Thank God, the ladder was still there. He jumped down without hesitation, holding the ladder in both hands, and just slipped away. Go down

Hassan was the last one to withdraw. If he had left a moment later, he would have stayed in the city forever because Meng Chong was running along the city wall with dozens of his personal guards. If there was an emergency, these people would rush to the city. Going up, these masters who were selected from the army killed extremely neatly. The sullenness they had been holding back for these days was perfectly vented at this moment. More than a hundred palace guards led by Yu Wenming were mixed in with the ordinary Donghu troops. of the attack, less than half of them can return in the end.

Yu Wenke sighed slightly, a little disappointed, but amidst the disappointment, he was also full of hope. Today, he finally attacked the city wall for the first time. Although it was only for a short moment, this is where the hope lies. As long as If you can open up a small bridgehead on top of the city, you can rely on this bridgehead to continuously expand your results.

"General Yuwen, the army has been fighting for a whole day and is exhausted. Why not rest first and fight again in the evening," Gao Che said in a low voice.

"One more sneak attack may succeed." Kirgiz came to the side to make plans.

"In a night battle, we are not as good as our opponents!" Yu Wenke shook his head and said: "We suffered a lot in the last night attack. Let's all rest tonight and fight again tomorrow."

He paused and said, "Tomorrow, we will change the palace guards to attack the city." He looked at the winding mountains in the distance behind the Liaoning Guards. "Tomorrow is our deadline. If we can't take down the Liaoning Guards, the enemy will The reinforcements are about to arrive. Once their reinforcements arrive, we will never be able to capture the Liaoning Guard. Next, we are afraid that we will have to retreat to Helin and the enemy will attack. We defended."

Yu Wenke sighed silently. Although Helin City is considered tall, compared with the majestic cities in the Central Plains, it can only be regarded as a small wall. At that time, how can it block those siege experiences? Extremely rich Central Plains generals

"General Yuwen, He Lanxiong's cavalry has entered our country. Now the country's troops are extremely empty. I'm afraid they will cause great damage," Gao Che said worriedly.

"We can't control them!" Yu Wenke never considered this issue at all. "He Lanxiong only has more than 2,000 cavalry. When he enters the hinterland of our country, he can only rob homes and conquer some small places. Is it possible that he still dares to go to Helin? You must know that there are still thousands of palace guards in Helin. If he dares to go, once the palace guards bite his tail, he will die. No matter how much damage he causes in the hinterland of our country, as long as we take down Liaoning Guard, everything will be worth it. At that time, he will be the best among us, and we will catch him sooner or later. If we can't take down Liaoning Guard, the whole country will overturn overnight, so why care about these little guys? Loss"

"The general is right!" Gao Che said in a low voice. He and Kirgiz looked at each other, and both saw a strange color in the other's eyes. The Yuwen clan had suffered heavy losses. The entire clan had been beaten in the Hetao until there was not much left, but The two of them are different. There are a lot of old, weak, women and children in the house. Once He Lanxiong is beaten, it will be very bad.

At this time, He Lanxiong and others, who were ignored by Yu Wenke, had already entered the hinterland of Donghu and Faku County.

"Commander, we have heard clearly. There is a small city of Donghu people ahead, called Faku. There are only a few hundred troops stationed in the city. It can be said that it is completely vulnerable." He Lanjie ran all the way to He Lanxiong excitedly, " The supplies of the brothers are running low, so if we capture this place, we can just replenish it."

"How high is the wall of Faku?" He Lanxiong asked

"Where is the city wall? It's just a gathering place for some Donghu people. It's just not a tent, but a brick building with a low wall outside." Helan Jiechi smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'll mention it." With the reins of the horse, you can jump over it."

"Okay, let's attack Faku. First, grab enough supplies, and then burn him to death. After destroying Faku, let's go to the next point. We will never give up until the Donghu territory is turned upside down." Helan Xiongyi jump up

Faku, Wotai looked desperately at the smoke and dust billowing into the sky in the distance, and then looked back at the group of old and young soldiers behind him. These were all the soldiers under his command. The king personally led the army. Almost all the young and strong were gone, and only the old and weak were left here. Yuwen Ke attacked the Liaoning Guard. Both sides had their own armies, but why the hell was there such a large group of cavalry from the Eastern Expedition Army here?

"Kill over and buy even a little time for our relatives to escape!" Wotai pulled out his machete in despair, "If we hold on for a moment longer, they will be able to escape with one more person, kill!"

Wotai smashed his horses and charged forward. Behind him, hundreds of people shouted and launched a desperate attack on the oncoming cavalry group. Then, like a bubble, it fell into the sea, never to be seen again. No figure can be seen

The cavalry of the Eastern Expeditionary Army rushed into the French library with shouts. Soon after, the raging fire drowned everything.

He Lanxiong did not kill many people in the Faku, but he robbed all the supplies that could be taken away. Those that could not be taken away were burned to ashes, leaving only thousands with empty hands and only one body. Donghu old and weak women and children in clothes

After robbing the law library, the two thousand cavalrymen didn't stop at all and ran forward all the way. The direction they went to was actually where He Lin was (to be continued)
