"Jinan's soldiers cannot be called a strong army at all. They have neglected training and their military discipline is lax. More importantly, Jinan has not prepared any clothing for the winter. In addition, they have been led around by our troops for many times. They have suffered serious physical losses and are exhausted. It is unbearable, so it is indeed difficult to attack Laocheng with an army of tens of thousands. The commander should have noticed that every time he attacks the city, once the critical moment comes, the Jinan soldiers will be unable to hold on. Now the weather is suddenly cold, how can they bear it? Come on, if Fang Sui treats his soldiers better and comforts him now, maybe everyone can grit their teeth and persevere, but he is just a selfish person who prides himself on martial arts and is extremely utilitarian. He will never be like this!! "Chen Dong said.
When Wu Song heard this, he said seriously: "Would Fang Sui besiege and not attack?"
"The reason why I let the commander take them around for so long is, firstly, to keep them away from Jinan Mansion, and secondly, to wait for the severe cold. In such weather, if he does not attack, he will freeze to death! !”
"Then what if he led his troops to withdraw??"
"No, as I said just now, Fang Sui is very utilitarian, and the leader defeated Jinan to become a big bandit of the imperial court. He also wants to take the commander's head to claim credit from the imperial court. Now that he has surrounded the commander, how could he give up? "As for the life and death of the soldiers below, he doesn't care at all. In his opinion, he still has tens of thousands of troops!!" Chen Dong mocked.
After Wu Song nodded, he frowned and said, "But after all, we only have more than a thousand people."
"Commander An Xin, the troops are not numerous but fine, and the generals are brave but strategic. In the battle of Hulaoguan, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty defeated Dou Jiande's army of more than 100,000 with only a few thousand cavalry. Although our army was small, Commander Ai Soldiers are like sons, and the officers below are constantly encouraging the brothers. Speaking of my brother's deputy command system of Chongwenfang, it is really admirable. Even if my brother doesn't say anything, they can calm down many things, not to mention that we still have a team. The reserve army is here!!" Chen Dong said with a smile.
"Reserve army??" Wu Song was stunned.
"Commander, do you know why this place is called Laocheng??"
"Why??"
"I chose Laocheng because there is an iron mine here. Many people who have committed crimes were brought here to mine and atone for their sins. Now there are more than 600 prisoners there, many of whom are skilled in martial arts. I have already I have convinced them. As long as they can help us defeat the enemy in Liangshan, they can regain their freedom. In addition, Cong Jinan has to pass through Echo Valley when going to Laocheng. Vice President Hu has probably already occupied it. As long as he cuts off the food supply of his Jinan army. "Tao, under the cold weather and hunger, our army will definitely win," Chen Dong said coldly.
Wu Song's face changed, and he nodded: "The military advisor is really talented and has far-reaching plans, but in fact, military advisor, you shouldn't follow me. It's still too dangerous here!!"
Chen Dong smiled and said, "This is my brother's plan. How can I not personally participate and watch all the brothers suffer!!"
"Commander, the next Jinan Army attack is actually the most critical. Although Fang Sui does not care about the life and death of the soldiers, he is not a fool, so he will definitely lead the army to attack with all his strength. The soldiers below will also grit their teeth and persevere, but as long as we can Defend again and they’re doomed!!”
Wu Song's eyes narrowed and he said, "One rush of strength, then another failure, and three times exhaustion."
"Exactly!!"
. . . .
On the second day, under the howling cold wind, violent shouts of killing were heard again, and they were louder than ever before. A large number of Jinan troops were seen holding shields and madly attacking Laocheng again.
Wu Song stood on the city tower with a calm expression and cold eyes. When the attacking officers and soldiers entered a hundred steps, he immediately waved his steel knife and said in a cold voice: "Shoot me!!"
"shoot!!"
"Whoosh..."
After hearing the sound of piercing the air, feather arrows immediately fell crazily, and many officers and soldiers died tragically on the spot instantly.
After a number of casualties were killed, ladders were erected on the top of the city. Wu Song immediately ordered people to drop the prepared rolling logs and boulders, and chopped down another batch.
When officers and soldiers finally rushed up, sharp spears were already thrust out, and figures fell down the city wall wailing.
Since ancient times, the bloodiest war has been the siege! !
About half an hour later, under the commander's flag at the rear, Fang Sui, holding a broadsword, looked at the front army that was defeated again, and shouted angrily: "Trash, trash, pass on the order, if we can't break Laocheng today, then we will do it." All the captains and captains were beheaded.”
"What?" The deputy general next to him was startled and said quickly: "General, no!"
"Shut up!!" Fang Sui's eyes were ferocious.
Soon, after Fang Sui's death order was issued, the army suddenly became even more crazy. Like a desperate man's last move, many soldiers gradually climbed to the top of the city.
"Kill!!" After shouting angrily, Wu Song rushed out with dozens of the most elite tiger-killing guards. They saw that the tiger-killing guards were all highly skilled in martial arts. It was difficult for ordinary officers and soldiers to match them. Especially Wu Song, who was even more powerful in killing. , brave and unstoppable.
"Ha!!" With a loud roar, Wu Song actually pushed five or six officers and soldiers down from Cong Cheng's head. The crazy and bloodthirsty momentum shocked the hearts of his brothers, and they all fled for their lives. They started fighting,
As the scene gradually became anxious, the closed city gate suddenly opened with a bang, and dozens of cavalry led 560 people to rush out. Some of them were wearing armor, and some were still wearing prison uniforms, but They seem to be dressed in different styles, but they are all extremely brave, like crazy wolves, with no regard for their own life or death.
"Ah, my ears," a prisoner shouted angrily, jumped up and bit off an officer's ear alive.
"Let's die together." Not far away, another person was pierced by a steel gun and fiercely plunged a dagger into the throat of the officer and soldier before dying.
The bloodthirsty aura immediately frightened the officers and soldiers. These were simply not human beings, they were vicious wolves! ! "
Under the fierce attack of this group of people, the siege troops were instantly in chaos.
"What, what's going on?" Fang Sui said angrily after looking at it.
"This seems to be a criminal who was sent to the mines in Laocheng. Could it be that Wu Song knew that he was back in Laocheng?" the deputy general next to him suddenly said in surprise.
The "criminal" Fang Sui gritted his teeth and looked at the fighting figure on the tower that seemed to never fall. He gritted his teeth and said: "Wu Song, Wu Song!!!"
"General, our army is in chaos, retreat quickly!!"
"No, we must attack Laocheng today. Brothers, follow me and kill!!" Fang Sui rushed forward with his bodyguards around him like a gambler who lost his money.
"General!!" the deputy general said anxiously after looking at it.
After a fierce and bloody battle, as dusk gradually fell, corpses were piled outside Laocheng, most of which were officers and soldiers.
"Commander, are you okay!!" On the tower, when Chen Dong arrived with two people, he looked at Wu Song who was lying down and immediately ran over anxiously.
After Wu Song looked at it, he shook his head, stood up with difficulty, and asked with concern: "What about the brothers who were killed?"
If the criminal soldiers in these mines hadn't fought tooth and nail today, it would have been difficult to defeat them.
"More than three hundred people died," Chen Dong said with some regret, and then said: "General, these two are the leaders recommended by the mine brothers, Li Bao and Wu Xiang."
"Meet Commander Wu." The two men looked at Wu Song, who was covered in blood, and immediately saluted with admiration.
"You two don't need to be polite. From today on, they are my brothers in Liangshan. I temporarily appoint you as marching captains. I will report to my brother later for formal arrangements!!"
After the two of them looked happy, they immediately said: "Thank you, Commander!!"
Wu Song nodded and said: "Military advisor, what are our losses?"
"Except for the 300 brothers in the mine, we lost 400 people, but we have annihilated at least 3,000 enemies. This battle will completely turn the tide of the war!!" Chen Dong said seriously.
