Chapter 2705
During this attack, Cao Jun showed the Youzhou Army what it means to be powerful and what it means to be a brave and fearless attack.
Even after the enemy's cavalry broke out of the defense, the Youzhou Army's defense was still tight.
Watching one of the elite Youzhou Army soldiers die under the charge of the cavalry, Hou Cheng couldn't bear it. These soldiers were working hard to win the battle for their own side, and they were worthy of respect.
"Push the knife door up." Hou Cheng ordered.
The soldiers pushing the sword gate gradually approached the place of confrontation. The sword gate is one of the most effective defense methods to prevent the enemy from breaking through the gate without entering the city. As long as the sword gate can be used properly, even if the enemy enters the pass, he will never enter the city.
Closing the passage to the inside of the pass can make the enemy pay a heavy price.
Daomen has a great effect in blocking enemy attacks, but this effect has not been tested before. However, even if Jin's cities have experienced wars, they are rarely breached by other princes. Wuguan is an important
The gate of sword was forgotten by the generals in the army.
The enemy's attack on Wuguan was too sudden. Without the slightest preparation, the generals of the army seized the gate for the enemy. Cao's army also used the collision of carriages to cause considerable difficulty in the defense. Only then did the enemy
The military power is overwhelming.
Responding to the situation has high requirements for generals. If the generals in the army cannot respond promptly and effectively when facing war, it will inevitably cause greater losses to the army. This is why Hou Cheng heard that he closed the door
The reason why you should try your best to calm down after receiving urgent news is that as a general in the army, you must be calm and calm at this time. If the generals in the coalition forces panic when facing the war, what should the following soldiers do?
At home.
Hou Cheng still understands the truth in this aspect. After the swordsmen move forward, they can form an effective defense against the enemy. In this case, even if the enemy is an elite force, it will be impossible to break through the defense of the sword gate and enter Wuguan.
As for the fact that the gate was under the control of Cao Jun, it would not have much impact on Hou Cheng.
To ensure that the enemy troops cannot break into the city, Hou Cheng has many ways to deal with them.
The arrival of the sword gate caused the cavalry to rein in their horses. Even though Cao Jun's cavalry were elite and brave, they felt cold all over when they saw the densely packed swords on the sword gate. These were three feet long. As long as the cavalry rushed forward.
There is absolutely no reason to survive. There is a big difference between charging to the enemy soldiers and dying in battle, and rushing towards the sword gate. In the first case, they may survive from the battlefield, and in the second case, they may survive.
The seed is certain to die.
While the cavalry was in a daze, Dao Men, driven by the soldiers, formed a defensive posture against the enemy's cavalry. Behind Dao Men were the soldiers of the Youzhou Army.
The military generals secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the sword gate appeared and had such an effect. It is understandable that they were anxious after learning that the gate had been lost. Although the task of defending Wuguan was relatively boring, the army
The lieutenants still understand the role of firmly guarding Wuguan. If Wuguan is lost in their hands, they will have a shame that is difficult to wash away.
Behind Wuguan is Chang'an, the capital of the Jin State. The seemingly relaxed defenders are actually shouldering a heavy responsibility. The generals of the Youzhou Army want to make contributions on the battlefield, but they don't want to be punished just after the war begins.
They appeared in the Jin newspaper because of meritorious service in the battle. If they failed due to defense, they would be embarrassed in front of the entire Jin Dynasty.
As long as the city can be defended, the generals in the army can still accept it even if they receive some punishment. What they will not allow is failure in this battle against the enemy.
The sword gate daunted Cao's cavalry. In this case, they did not dare to charge forward. The thick sword gate gave them a feeling that it was difficult to break through.
After Cao Hong learned of the situation ahead, he hurriedly rode in. It was a good time to attack Wuguan. If the cavalry attack stalled, the previous efforts were likely to be in vain. So what if they occupied the vicinity of the gate? Cao Hong needed
The key is to seize Wuguan and let our own army enter the pass before the defenders of Wuguan can react, so as to cause a greater shock to the enemy.
After seeing these sword doors, Cao Hong took a breath of cold air. These sword doors were nine feet high and completely blocked the path of the cavalry. Even if he gave the order for the cavalry to charge at this time, I am afraid that no cavalry would dare to charge.
Go forward.
The bravery of the generals in the army has no effect whatsoever on stepping forward to die. They still make wise choices.
"Instruct the infantry to come forward and push these sword doors open." Cao Hong ordered.
After the infantry received the order, they held shields and came towards the sword gate. The shields in their hands were the main means of fighting against the sword door. However, no matter how the soldiers in the army rushed against the sword door, the sword door did not move at all.
After seeing this scene, one can imagine the depression in Cao Hong's heart. He had broken through near the city gate, but the sword gate suddenly appeared among the enemy troops. At that time, unless he killed the soldier who pushed the sword gate, he would not be able to break through.
After entering the city, the sword gate is the first thing you need to face.
The attack suffered a setback after the Youzhou Army's Daomen appeared. Under such circumstances, Cao Hong could only try every means to try to break through the Daomen's defense. If they could break through the Daomen, they would still be in trouble in this surprise attack.
Successful, otherwise it can only end in failure.
The ramming cart used to break through the city gate was also sent to the front, ramming again and again. Although the sword gate became loose, it could not be breached.
Cao Hong looked frustrated. At this time, the enemy had found an effective means of defense. The enemy would definitely defend it to the death. If they want to break through Wuguan, the first thing they have to face is these sword gates. If they can't break through the sword gates,
, all the previous efforts of the army were in vain, no matter how much the soldiers in the army paid when they raided Wuguan, it was difficult to enter Wuguan, everything was in vain.
The collision of the car did cause the sword door to loosen, but the looseness was far from what Cao Hong needed.
After struggling like this for half an hour, Cao Hong no longer had much hope of breaking through Wuguan. Half an hour was enough for the defenders in Wuguan to complete their deployment. If the enemy aimed their crossbows or repeating crossbows at the city,
In the direction of the door, it will be even more impossible for cavalry and infantry to break through.
