"kill!"
"The cowardly fighter in the battle! Death!"
As the smoke of gunpowder rolled, Li Zicheng's face was covered in blood and a ferocious expression cut and killed a soldier who was fighting in front of him. Looking around, Li Zicheng shouted violently, and his murderous aura rolled.
Even though he was confused and frightened, Li Zicheng had no choice at this time and here!
If you want to survive, you can only block the attack of the official army first. As for whether to break through or defend to the death, it is not something he can decide.
Although it seems that the siege of the city has become more and more intense, in fact, so far, the Yongwei Battalion has only used some auxiliary soldiers, among which the main force of the city is the bandits captured by the army.
Under the city tower, batch after batch of bandit prisoners were forced to climb up the tall siege ladder under the watchful supervision of the battle soldiers, and then rushed to the top of the city to fight with the robes of the past.
At this critical moment, facing these former robes that were forced to rush up to the city tower by the Yongwei Battalion, the defenders on the city wall had no other choice but to aim the blade at these former robes and slash them down.
In just a short moment, blood was already accumulated on the top of the city, and corpses were everywhere.
Gao Yingxiang's iconic white robe has already turned bloody, but war has never been a person who can influence the situation of the war.
As the war continued, the ragged prisoners of the thief army climbed to the city, but gradually the brave guards who had formed a system appeared.
In fact, the treatment of soldiers in the Yongwei camp was beyond the reach of other troops in the Ming Dynasty.
Not to mention that the slightest military pay and the food that is open to supply every month, just the entire army is wearing armor, which is enough to make any army in the Ming Dynasty ashamed.
Even if there are no other factors, a man wearing armor fights a man without armor, the man wearing armor obviously has the absolute advantage.
And this is the case with the battle of first landing now.
The brave guards and generals who were established were all armored and formed into formations, and they were still in the narrow place at the city, which was enough to easily gain local advantages.
The gathering of advantages everywhere is an irreversible disadvantage for the defenders in the city!
Although Gao Yingxiang was brave and his generals were fighting hard, their defeat became increasingly obvious in the face of the gap between quality and quantity.
"Bring all the reserves!"
Gao Yingxiang's eyes were red and he shouted loudly.
The war has exceeded his expectations until now. According to what he thought, he could last for about ten days. This time is enough for him to judge the situation clearly and find a way out for himself.
But now, it is just the first wave of attacks by the government army, and it seems that it can no longer support it and its defeat is fully demonstrated.
Even if this wave of official attacks is repelled, what about the second and third waves?
He could see clearly that the main force of the government army outside the city had not taken any action!
Nowadays, this wave of attack may be more in line with the tentative attack!
As for Xiancheng surrender, Gao Yingxiang had no idea from beginning to end.
When surrendering, ordinary soldiers may have a way out, but a thief like him will definitely be beheaded and displayed in public.
Moreover, just by looking at the attitude of this official army towards the prisoners, he could not have the idea of ​​surrendering.
The battle of breaking the city was so smooth, which was beyond Erwazi's expectations. You must know that he was very concerned about this so-called top general of the thief army.
Unexpectedly, he had a lot of tricks before he could use them, and the thief army seemed to be unable to hold on.
In this way, it will naturally be a pain to beat the dog in the water!
"Send another battalion of infantry to prepare the cavalry to prevent the bandits from leaving the city and running away!"
When another battalion of infantry climbed the city tower, the balance of war was completely tilted.
Gao Yingxiang is still making the final struggle.
Leading a group of confidants and the only reserve team in the city, he counterattacked the Yongwei Battalion, which had occupied a small half of the city walls, with a decisive force.
"Then Gao Yingxiang is still on the city tower?"
When Erwazi learned about the war ahead, he raised his eyebrows, and his various expressions were already very similar to Li Xiu.
"The leader of the bandits personally led a group of bandits to launch a counterattack against our first-row soldiers. The momentum was very rampant, and our vanguard soldiers were seriously injured."
"Gao Yingxiang...Li Zicheng..."
Looking at the clearly visible scene of fighting on the top of the city, Erwazi frowned, but these two names appeared in his heart again.
He had no special feelings about these two names. It was just that the two thief generals in the Yan'an thief army were remembered by him because Brother Xiu had mentioned these two names before leaving, which made him quite concerned about these two.
"Let the personal guard camp prepare and follow me to climb the city. I will see how Gao Yingxiang can fight back!"
After the words came, Erwazi drove his horse forward, and the guards beside him also moved.
Now that the city is occupied by the Yongwei Battalion, war has changed from defending the city to fighting for the city tower for the thief army.
There are no more obstacles when you climb the city.
However, the city was narrow and could not accommodate too many troops. Therefore, before seizing the city gate, the city could only be pushed forward little by little in this anxiety.
The so-called general is the courage of the soldiers. A large part of the reason why the bandit army in the city can resist tenaciously in such a decline is naturally the reason why Gao Yingxiang, the chief general, strives for courage.
As Erwazi personally came to the top of the city and raised the flag high, the morale of the brave guards who already had the advantage suddenly increased a little.
You should know that the battle to climb the city, for the soldiers who first climb the city, is not just a life-and-death danger in the process of climbing the city, but the most dangerous thing is that the battle at the top of the city is unfavorable, and the need to call the gold to withdraw the troops.
For the soldiers under the city, if they withdraw their troops, they can just retreat directly, but for the soldiers who step onto the city tower, retreat means either becoming prisoners or fighting to the death. As for the possibility of retreat, it is too small and too small.
But now, the Lord is here in person, and this most worrying possibility naturally does not exist. This increase in morale can be imagined.
The balance of war is also completely tilted at this moment!
"So brave!"
Seeing the suddenly raised flag of generals and the very conspicuous Erwai who was surrounded by the generals, Gao Yingxiang didn't know where the official general was coming to the city!
The situation is not yet determined and is still fighting for the city wall, so Gao Yingxiang dared to come to the city wall in person. With such courage, he couldn't help but exclaim.
But after admiring, a strong sense of powerlessness surged into my heart.
The city wall has lost half of it, and with the continuous support of the official army, the defeat has become increasingly obvious.
Even, it can be said that the defeat has been decided!
"General, break through!"
There were generals who advised him.
Gao Yingxiang was also confused, but when his eyes saw the second child surrounded by the generals again, he was completely confused.
There is still hope!
Chapter completed!
