Whenever there is a war, no matter how many troops there are, there will only be a miserable hell in the place where the battle takes place.
The small village gate is like a dead end, with flames rising, only harvested lives and endless wails.
Perhaps this time the battle lasted only half a day, and the number of people was only a few dozen.
In a blink of an eye, it drifts away with the wind.
Even ten months later, people will no longer remember that there was a place called Bailing Village in Zhending Mansion, where a tragic and fierce battle once took place.
Every life came to an abrupt end in this fierce battle.
Gao Kan stood on top of the village gate, and the cruelty of war suddenly rushed into his mind.
There was no foreshadowing, and it showed him nakedly the fragility of life and the sorrow of human beings.
Inside the village gate, Yang Zhi fought hard and had to control the people around him.
Although many of his troops had followed Gaokan for a long time, and had traveled to many places, thousands of miles away, and had fought fiercely, this was still the first time they had seen it, and the shock in their hearts was beyond words.
With a clear eye, you can see that it is actually behind the village gate.
Taking advantage of the length of the wooden thorn in his hand, he can actually assassinate the enemy troops outside the village gate at will, even if they are already dead.
But still, some people were careless and made mistakes, causing the enemy to counterattack before death and being injured.
If you don't pay attention, someone might even lose their life.
The previous ambush of the enemy's scouts had already resulted in a loss of manpower. If someone else was killed this time, I would probably have no words to go to see Gaokan.
Moreover, the sound of killing in front of the village gate was loud, the screams could not be heard, and there were also movements in the enemy formation behind.
The thick-armored cavalry men and horses called log spikes to intercept them. They could not break through, but they responded quickly. They took two steps in advance and outflanked them on the left and right.
In a moment, they were under the side of the village gate.
Moreover, the bandits held heavy hammers and used the force of their horses to smash the fence of the wooden village.
Under the continuous impact, the head of the village shook, as if the entire head of the village was about to be overturned in an instant.
Feeling the vibration under his feet, Gao Kan suddenly turned around.
He immediately looked towards where the enemy troops were divided. Seeing those thick-armored soldiers constantly rushing into the side of the village gate, he was horrified. If they collided like this, if they stopped for a moment, they would be able to break the opening.
It was just a battle this time. If the Jin soldiers were to break through the fence and enter the stronghold so quickly, it would probably be a massacre.
So he shouted repeatedly: "Fire arrows left and right, don't let the enemy break through the fence, hurry up!"
The archers at the gate of the village heard the sound and quickly drew their bows to shoot at the enemy soldiers who were rushing against the fence on the left and right sides.
This is when the Jin Army's thick armor showed its power. Bows and arrows fell on the stronghold gate, making it difficult to break through the armor. Even the Jin Army's cavalry couldn't even block it. Now there was only a siege around the stronghold.
Seeing this scene, Gao Kan knew that he couldn't procrastinate any longer.
He immediately waved and led a group of people from the village gate and went straight down.
As soon as he came down, he saw Yang Zhi leading his men to assassinate in front of the village gate. He had already killed most of the dozens of men and horses who first rushed straight to the village gate.
The remaining ones who were burned by the fire had only one way to die, so there was no need to worry about it, they quickly stopped and acted together.
"Instructor Yang, come with me quickly!"
Yang Zhi suddenly heard the sound, turned around and saw Gao Kan walking down the village gate, and quickly asked someone to follow him.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
"The enemy troops have divided their forces and charged into the stronghold. The left and right sides have collided dozens of times. If this continues, sooner or later the siege of the stronghold will be broken through. Once a hole is opened in the siege of the stronghold, it will probably be difficult to hold on."
Gao Kan said anxiously, leading the people to run towards the enemy on the left first.
When I ran closer, I saw the village wall shaking, and the places where the bindings were bound were bent and deformed.
The thick log was knocked out of the gap, and the gap was broken only in a moment.
Yang Zhi saw this scene. They were below, not above. The wooden fence blocked the enemy's direct attack, and also blocked the attack from inside. Before the village fence was broken, it seemed that they could only watch this road.
"Sir, the enemy troops are charging at us, but we are isolated by the wooden wall and cannot attack or kill them!"
A cold light surged in Gao Kan's eyes, and he said in a cold voice: "One move will eat you up all over the world. Ask the brothers to bring some strong liquor!"
When Yang Zhi heard this, he immediately understood what Gao Kan meant.
He quickly turned around and called for someone to fetch a wine jar, placed it under the fence, and threw it outside with all his strength.
The siege of the village is not high, and most of the people are experts in martial arts and have a lot of strength.
The wine jar asked them to throw it across the wall of the village with all their strength, and when it hit the wine jar, a smell of wine could be heard outside.
At the gate of the village, the archers looked straight at the enemy troops and horses on the left and right. When they saw a wine jar thrown from behind the fence and hit the opposite army, they immediately used rockets to shoot.
At that moment, there was a huge fire outside the village.
However, unlike the village gate, there are high ridges arranged in advance to prevent the enemy from retreating.
Moreover, as in the previous trip, the enemy troops were not fools. When they saw the rockets coming, they immediately retreated. Only a few people were contaminated by the rockets and only had a weak fire on their bodies, which could be easily extinguished.
Gaokan's purpose was not to kill the enemy troops, but to force them back.
Seeing that there was no movement in the village siege, he immediately said to Yang Zhiyan: "Instructor Yang, there are enemy troops rushing to the right. Hurry over there. If the village siege is still there, deal with it the same way."
"Yes!" Yang Zhi was so knowledgeable that he didn't dare to delay and hurriedly led people over.
This time, Gao Kan did not move. He looked at the walled village in front of him that had been charged by the enemy troops before, and frowned.
After a long while, he said in a deep voice: "The rest of you are waiting and come with me, hurry up!"
He called his subordinates and hurried back to the barracks in the stronghold, moved them in the warehouse, and returned after a short while.
Then he ordered his men to bury all the things they brought near the left side for later use.
At this time, Yang Zhi temporarily forced the enemy troops on the other side to retreat and returned to resume their operations.
"Sir, the enemy forces on both sides have temporarily retreated, and the enemy forces on the front have also retreated. It seems that they will not attack again today."
Hearing this, Gao Kan's face relaxed, and he immediately said: "Tell the brothers at the gate of the village to take good care of them and be on guard against sneak attacks by the enemy. In addition, we will allocate manpower to gather the people in the village and leave the village by water first."
When Yang Zhi heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he said: "Master, are we not going to defend?"
Gao Kan shook his head slightly and said with a stern expression: "The enemy's attack is fierce, and its power far exceeds previous expectations. Bailing Village is a small place and it is difficult to hold on. It is not a place to stay for a long time, so we must prepare in advance!"
"But……"
Yang Zhi hesitated for a moment, but he was unwilling to give up. They had finally taken down Bailing Village. Could it be that they just gave it up to others?
Gao Kan glanced at him and said with relief: "Teacher Yang, don't be reluctant to give up. You need to understand the principle of 'if you save the land and lose the people, everyone and the land will be lost. If you save the people and lose the land, both the people and the land will be saved.' Even if we withdraw this time Bailing Village was surrendered to the enemy, making it very difficult for them to occupy this place!"
When Yang Zhi heard that, although he was reluctant, he still obeyed the order and hurriedly asked people to gather people in various parts of the village. They all drove to the dock to find boats to escape by water.
