On the third day, the Liang army began to attack the city.
Before the battle, King Liang was in the high chariot, summoned Xue Wu, and said to him:
"In this battle, we will compete with the Yan Army for their bravery! We must show the momentum of our Liang Army and let the kings see it!"
"General, I understand! Please rest assured, Your Majesty!" Xue Wu, wearing armor, said with clasped fists.
"Okay! Let's start the war directly!"
"promise!"
Xue Wu responded, then unsheathed his sword.
The commander's flag began to wave, and with the military order, the Liang army immediately launched a charge.
On the plains, dust was flying.
As soon as I looked around, I saw countless soldiers of Liang Army.
Arrows from both sides began to fire back and forth in the sky. From time to time, someone screamed and fell off the city wall. From time to time, someone was hit by stray arrows and fell to the ground. Later, they were trampled to death by thousands of troops.
It didn't take long at all, and ladders were set up all over the city gate.
It was not much different from the previous two battles. The Yan army on the city began to hold on desperately, throwing down rocks in rolling waves.
Generally speaking, the combat strength of the Liang army should not be weaker than that of the Qin army, because in the same battle of Bei Fortress, a bitter cold land, and Ping Bei Desert, the King of Liang implemented the strategy of using all the people as soldiers.
Such an army is also very vicious when it comes to fighting tough battles.
But again, it is impossible to break through Sishui Pass in three days. After sunset, the Liang army also retreated.
On the top of the city, watching the enemy troops retreat, Yan Yan couldn't help but said: "The coalition forces have been attacking for three days. The Xuan Army on the first day, the Qin Army on the second day, the Liang Army on the third day, and on the fourth day, I don't know whether it was the Huan Army or the Ling Army." Army..."
Allied main account.
King Liang seemed quite satisfied with today's battle and was the first to speak:
"How about everyone, the combat capability of our Liang Army did not disappoint the Allies, did it? When it comes to the bravery of our soldiers, who in the world can match it?"
There was obvious frivolity in his tone. Hearing this, the four kings glanced at each other subconsciously, and then King Huan said:
"Haha, what Brother Liang Wang said is absolutely true. The bravery of the Liang army is intimidating."
Xiao Yuan also said with a smile: "In the battle between Liang Jun and the Allied Forces, the momentum has not been lost. Next, it depends on Brother Ling Wang."
Just as the Ling King was about to speak, his counselor Cheng Ping stood up, bowed his hands and saluted, "Your Majesty, since our Ling Army is going to fight, I think it will be tonight instead of tomorrow."
"Oh?" The Spirit King couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and the other four kings also looked over.
Cheng Ping explained: "The Allied forces take turns to attack and carry out strong attacks during the day. After three days, they will definitely give the Yan Army an illusion, and tonight is the best time to attack at night."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yuan immediately said: "I deeply agree with what Mr. Cheng said. Now Yan Yan must think that the fourth battle will still be during the day. If we adopt a night attack, there may be unexpected results."
"Well..." After hearing this, the Spirit King nodded slowly, and then no longer hesitated: "Okay! Our Spirit Army will attack Sishui Pass at night!"
"Huang Zu! I order you to personally command the battle! If possible, break through the Sishui Pass. You will be the first step in destroying the flames of our allies!"
"The last general takes orders!" Huang Zu shouted and clasped his fists.
He is in his forties, with a short beard and white hair on his chin. Although he is a bit old, his eyes are bright and clear. He is a famous general in the Ling Kingdom. He has been on the battlefield for more than twenty years and has achieved only a handful of defeats. .
Under the order of the Ling King, the Ling Army began to gather quickly.
late at night.
Tens of thousands of troops are moving, and no matter how careful they are, the movement is still huge.
On the top of the city, there were soldiers on guard, holding halberds. They looked outside with wide eyes as if they heard something.
But tonight it was dark, and I couldn't see my fingers. I could only hear rustling sounds, like the friction of armor, but I couldn't see a ghost.
Just when he was confused and about to shout, a large rain of arrows swept over him.
Plop, plop!
In just an instant, a large row of guards on the city were shot over, and the pitiful howls were heard one after another.
"Enemy attack! There is an enemy attack——"
Those who were lucky enough to survive began to scream in panic at the top of their lungs.
A commotion broke out!
At the same time, countless torches suddenly lit up on the plain outside the city gate. In the dark night, there were so many stars that one could not see the end.
"Siege the city——"
Huang Zu shouted, his war sword pointed forward.
"Kill--"
Countless soldiers of the Spirit Army began to charge.
Rockets were fired indiscriminately, ladders were set up, and the siege vehicles were quickly pushed to the city gate and began to hit fiercely.
Due to the lack of preparedness, there were not many soldiers in the city to guard the door.
Under the violent impact, the city gate trembled tremendously, almost threatening to burst open.
When a general of the Spiritual Army saw this, he urged him repeatedly: "Hurry up! Hurry up -"
"Hey! Hey-"
A large number of spiritual troops gathered together and used all their strength to feed.
In the city, the Yan army received the warning and began to rush to the city in large numbers.
Yan Yanyi arrived here immediately, shouting and commanding:
"Hurry, hurry! Follow us!"
"Guard the city gate! Guard the city gate——"
Under his continuous shouts, hundreds of soldiers quickly gathered at the city gate and began to move forward together to resist the thick wooden stakes.
The ancient city gate was tall and heavy and very difficult to break open. Moreover, the passage inside the gate was of a certain length and could accommodate many people.
This night attack was no less intense than during the day, and due to the Yan Army's inability to defend, the Spirit Army almost attacked the city several times.
When the sky turned white and the war stopped, the Ling Army began to retreat. After arriving at the allied camp, Huang Zu clasped his fists and said:
"Your Majesty, the night attack did have a great effect. Our army was just a little short of attacking. However, the Yan army responded quickly and the veteran general Yan Yan was stationed, so the general failed to break the city."
These were actually expected. King Ling didn't say anything when he heard this. Instead, he nodded and said, "Well, thank you for your hard work, General Huang."
At this time, Xiao Yuan looked at King Huan and said directly: "Brother King Huan, it's time for Huan's army to go into battle."
"Now, now?" King Huan swallowed.
"Of course!" King Liang received the message: "I didn't listen to what General Huang Zu said, and we almost broke through the city! How can we give the Yan army another chance to breathe!"
"Okay, okay..." After hearing what he said, King Huan could only agree reluctantly.
Then, Xiang Ge was ordered to lead his army to attack the city.
In the morning, Huan Jun launched a charge, and the battle continued. King Huan was sitting in the handsome chariot, staring straight ahead, grinning secretly.
King Huan really didn't want to fight such a forceful attack with all the bravery of his officers and soldiers, and it was a bit too much for Huan's army's fighting habits.
But the four kings in front of them had fought bloody battles for a whole day, and when it was his turn, he could only grit his teeth and fight on.
There was no gold reward from the rear, and under the military order, Huan Jun had no choice but to rush forward. In this battle, Huan Jun suffered the most heavy casualties compared to the previous days.
From this, it is not difficult to see its military strength and characteristics.
