Chapter 5 Fierce Battle
Yuan Wenshu saw the enemy approaching and shouted: "Take it." The soldiers on the city wall threw down the turbulent oil. He took advantage of the enemy's failure to react and then came down again with another round of straw.
The enemy immediately ran back when they saw that it was not good. Unfortunately, Yuan Wenshu was ready for a long time and could not let them run away? He saw a row of archers behind the front row of soldiers, and directly shot a round of rockets.
The surging fire instantly devoured the enemy army as soon as the rocket landed. An enemy soldier caught fire and turned to find his companions to rescue him. As a result, his companions were accidentally ignited. Such a situation could be seen everywhere under the city wall. Yuan Wenshu felt disgusted and suppressed the discomfort of his stomach.
The soldiers quickly asked the soldiers to throw down all the flammable items on the city wall. The fire continued because the city wall kept throwing things down, so there was no sign of extinguishing. In the end, the 700 siege troops only fled back more than a dozen people. It can be said that the enemy suffered heavy losses this time.
On the wall of Dongcheng, Liu Jie and Zhou Fang stood on the wall together and looked at the enemy in the distance. They probably didn't take down the city gate with two rounds of attacks, so the enemy planned to take a break.
Taking advantage of this time, Lao Liu and Lao Fang quickly sent 20 people to support Yuan Wenshu. The reason for sending such a few people was entirely because they didn't know when the enemy's next attack would be.
When the 20 people who supported arrived at Ximen, they saw a strange scene. They saw a group of soldiers resting under the city wall. It was incredible that the enemy in Ximen did not attack the city?
With such questions, the leader of these people found Yuan Wenshu. Before he could speak Yuan Wenshu, he knew why. He was shocked to see the fire outside the city and felt a deep admiration for Yuan Wenshu.
In fact, the favorite thing that is to be a soldier is the general who can lead them to win battles. Even if you die in battle, you don’t have to worry about pensions, because the pensions in victory and defeat are different.
Less gossip When Yuan Wenshu saw these people who came to support him, he immediately asked about the situation in Dongcheng. When he heard the result, he felt relieved. After all, the plan is always a plan.
It will have variables just like the fierce attack in Xicheng. If it weren't for Yuan Wenshu's caution and caution, it would have been broken now. Yuan Wenshu made a silent decision in his heart and would never underestimate the opponent after all, it would be impossible to get along with the leader of the first battalion. As the saying goes, without three points, how dare you go to Liangshan.
Just as Yuan Wenshu asked these people about the situation, Liluo, who was outside the city, also received news from the deputy general. Listening to what the person who came to report the news, Liluo was so angry that he vomited blood.
This time, the siege has lost 1,500 people, and the maximum number of defenders in the city is only 500. The most important thing is that the defenders in the city have almost no losses, and they have lost 1,500 people.
Li Luo can imagine that if King Liang knew the news, he would have to cut himself off the sacrificial flag. He now really wanted to use the whole army to attack the city, but he just lost a big loss.
It is really not appropriate to launch an attack again because of the low morale. Besides, the fire in Ximen has not yet been extinguished. As for Dongcheng, it is obvious that most of the troops in the city have gathered. I can only take it down for a while. Thinking of this, Li Luo can only issue an order to stop the attack even if he is unwilling to do so.
It can be said that Yuan Wenshu and the others survived today, but what to do tomorrow? Because the Dongcheng defensive materials have basically been used up, the fire in Ximen will definitely be extinguished tomorrow, and the situation will be even more difficult at that time.
After hearing the situation in Dongcheng, Yuan Wenshu was waiting for the reaction outside the city. He watched the fire and cooking outside the city start to be burned and cooked, Yuan Wenshu thought, he finally got through today.
Seeing that there was no fire outside the city that could not be extinguished for an hour, Yuan Wenshu then calmed down and went to Dongcheng to discuss countermeasures with Liu Jie and Zhou Fang.
Seeing Yuan Wenshu coming, Liu Jie and Zhou Fang quickly stopped their work and asked the other soldiers to continue and then came to Yuan Wenshu.
Yuan Wenshu looked at the two subordinates in front of him and felt a little emotional. Looking at the blood on their bodies, he knew how fierce the battle was at that time. "Thank you, Lao Liu and Lao Fang."
After hearing Yuan Wenshu's words, the two of them laughed and scolded: "Get out of here, why are you still pretentious?" After that, they started laughing, and Yuan Wenshu laughed as well.
After laughing for a while, Yuan Wenshu spoke first: "Okay, I'm pretentious and I'll ask you to go to Yanlai Pavilion, Kyoto to play."
When the two of them heard Yan Laige's eyes lit up, they could not tell at that moment that they had been fighting for a whole day.
In fact, the reason why the two of them acted so unbearable is that Yanlai Pavilion is known as the No. 1 brothel in the north, and the entire Wei Dynasty can be compared with it except the Qinhuai River in the south of the Yangtze River.
The most talked about is the most popular way of playing the game. The "Talented Man and Beautiful Man" held by the Jiaofangsi in Yanlai Pavilion every month is actually an auction.
However, there is a difference that poetry can be worth money. Of course, literati cannot be so vulgar. Moreover, Jiaofangsi is not a fool. Only those who make peerless poetry are qualified and not worth a lot, but lead people directly by poetry. You must know that Jiaofangsi auctions are all officials.
After hearing Yuan Wenshu's words, the two of them immediately said in unison, "We will be disrespectful to guard the situation, ah? Hahaha."
All of them are men, Yuan Wenshu, of course, knows what they are thinking. "Okay, okay, I can still deceive you? Let's talk about some serious matters and we will survive today and tomorrow what should we do?"
"According to the time, it is estimated that reinforcements will not arrive tomorrow afternoon at the earliest. Tomorrow morning will be difficult for us. What do you think?"
After hearing this, Liu Zhou and the other two frowned and broke away from their fantasies just now. In fact, the reason why the two of them were so unbearable was actually a way to transfer pressure.
In this way, we will not collapse due to pressure. In fact, since we repelled the enemy's attack, the two of us have thought of this problem, because the defensive equipment has basically been used up, and if the enemy comes again, it will have to fight head-on.
Even the remaining people are not enough for the rest of the game, and they have been thinking about it for a long time but there is no good idea, so this is how it is.
When Yuan Wenshu saw that the two of them did not speak, he directly ordered; "Since you have no choice, then listen to my solution, and first find out all the limes in the city."
At this time, Liu Jie spoke: "There is not much lime in our entire fort, and it is a drop in the bucket for defending the city."
"Old Liu, don't worry about listening to me, and then concentrate the flour in the city and mix the lime and flour together, and the spices in the Western Regions, and put them together."
"I don't believe that so many things can be worse than lime when mixed together? I'll dig out two meters of soil in the toilet pits in the city, and adding it in tomorrow will have some effect."
