Chapter 233 Bullying Me Too Much
Yelu Xiezhen looked at the Liao army attacking the city with a gloomy face. Amid the deafening shouts and thick smoke of fire, a thousand Liao soldiers stepped on the corpses of their compatriots piled under the city wall and launched the third wave of attack.
The Song army on the city wall was showing signs of fatigue, with arrows, thunder stones and rolling logs falling sporadically. Several Liao soldiers on the siege ladders finally climbed onto the city wall, slashed with steel knives in their hands, killed the nearby Song soldiers, and stabilized the situation.
The Liao army behind followed closely, and more and more Liao soldiers climbed over the city wall using the siege ladders.
It's done! Yelu Xiezhen breathed a sigh of relief.
The Song army, unable to resist, suddenly retreated, and a dense rain of arrows shot at the Liao army on the city wall. The Liao soldiers standing on the city wall screamed and waved their weapons, but they fell to the ground one by one, dancing and falling down the wall. After the rain of arrows, the retreating Song army rushed forward again, using the steel forks in their hands to push the siege ladders out. The Liao soldiers on the ladders screamed and rolled down like dumplings as the ladders fell.
Yelu Xiezhen clenched his fists and cursed inwardly, "Where did the 3,000 Song soldiers in Yingzhou City come from so many bows and arrows? It was as if the arrows would never run out. After three days of siege, 10,000 Han soldiers were almost dead, but they still couldn't break through Yingzhou City."
Yelu Xiezhen waved his hand and said, "Send another thousand men. We must take Yingzhou City today!"
Meng Liang's face was covered in blood, his eyes were bloodshot and fierce, the blade of the steel knife in his hand was bent, his armor was tattered, the only thing that caught people's attention was the dark red gourd on his back. But he knew that the gunpowder in the gourd had been completely used up.
"General, we are running out of arrows. We can only hold off one attack from the enemy." A captain stepped forward to report.
Meng Liang stood straight without moving, his eyes still watching the Liao army approaching with siege ladders. "Let's give the last wave of arrows to these bastards, and then we'll have a hand-to-hand fight!" His voice was hoarse, but firm and calm.
There was a sudden commotion on the right side of the Liao army formation, and a group of elite cavalrymen in dark red armor rushed into the enemy group from the right side. Meng Liang, who was standing high and seeing far, shouted in surprise: "Reinforcements are coming! It's our Huoshan Army, it must be General Yang Yanzhao who came to rescue us!"
The Song army on the city wall cheered. The joy, excitement and elation of escaping death filled their exhausted bodies with strength again. They aimed their bows and arrows steadily at the Liao army who were carrying siege ladders and were about to come within range.
Yelu Xiezhen, who was standing on the command platform, also saw the Song army that attacked the right side of the army like a tiger. He narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Yang Yanzhao's two thousand volcano troops have come back again. Do they want to rescue the volcano troops in the city?
Send out an order, have Hulut's 10,000 lightly armored cavalry go around from the right, and Xiao Ce's 2,000 heavily armored cavalry intercept them head-on, and wipe out this entire Volcano Army at the foot of the city."
Yang Yanzhao led the Huoshan Army cavalry to kill through the enemy formation with arrows. Under the rapid shooting of the Liao Army archers, they rushed into the siege infantry formation. After a period of killing like chopping melons and vegetables, the siege infantry formation collapsed. The Han army, who were used as cannon fodder by the Khitans, turned around and ran back in fear.
The defenders on the city wall did not use the bows and arrows in their hands, but still pointed their bows at the Liao cavalry below with caution. Once they came into the range, a feast of arrows would be launched.
Yelu Xiezhen calmly watched as the Volcano Army cavalry killed through the infantry formation that was attacking the city and then charged into the left wing square. The heavy armored cavalry was too slow to intercept them head-on, so they could only chase them from behind. Fortunately, the 10,000 light armored cavalry that passed by from the right were able to catch up and chase them.
Before the Liao army had time to adjust its right wing, a group of elite cavalry in black iron armor rushed over again. The two thousand iron-clad heavy soldiers of the Liao army, Tiefutu, had just circled in front and were chasing Yang Yanzhao's Huoshan Army, but were chased by the suddenly appearing Moyun Cavalry.
"Mo Yunqi? Prince of Qin Zhao Defang is here too!" Yelu Xiezhen was not panicked at all. Instead, he was as excited as if he had seen two sheep falling into a tiger's mouth.
Now Yang Yanzhao's two thousand Huoshan troops killed the left wing of the Liao army and ran eastward, with two thousand Tiefutu heavy cavalry chasing behind him. Qin Wang Zhao Defang's two thousand Moyun cavalry killed the right wing and chased after Tiefutu, and Hulut's ten thousand light cavalry chased after Qin Wang.
There is no doubt that the Liao army is sure to win in this situation. Yelu Xiezhen raised a cruel smile at the corner of his mouth, "The time has come to annihilate these two elite troops. Dahan, you take 10,000 lightly armored cavalry and chase them. Make sure to annihilate these two hateful cavalry of Qin Wang Zhao Defang and Yang Yanzhao!"
Before Yelu Xiezhen finished speaking, Yang Yanzhao, who had run to the open space in the east, circled his horse and turned back to attack the Iron Buddha heavy armored cavalry.
At this moment, the Mo Yun Cavalry behind Tiefutu caught up with Tiefutu, and a dozen elite Mo Yun Cavalry soldiers in the front row swung their arms and threw something into the enemy group.
"Boom!..." "Boom!..." "Boom!..." Amid the sound of thunderous bombs, flames ignited and smoke filled the air.
Yelu Xiezhen was so frightened that his heart stopped for a moment, the blood in his body seemed to solidify for a moment, and his mind went blank.
Yang Yanzhao's Volcano Army circled their horses in front of the Iron Pagoda. A dozen soldiers who were at the front also threw out the thunder bombs with lit fuses in their hands with all their might.
"Boom!..." "Boom!..." "Boom..." The rumbling thunders at the front and back of the Iron Pagoda heavy armored cavalry formation echoed each other.
Twenty-six thunder bombs exploded in the enemy group. At the explosion point, the Liao army's Iron Buddha heavy armored cavalrymen were thrown to the ground, and their limbs and arms flew all over the sky...
The sound of thunder, the blast wave, and the flames frightened the Liao army's horses, which had no training in explosions, and caused them to neigh and run around uncontrollably.
The elite Mo Yun Cavalry and the Volcano Army took the opportunity to charge forward, and the Iron Pagoda, wearing heavy iron armor, became the target of slaughter.
Luo Li was held tightly in the arms of Qin Wang Zhao Defang and protected, and she was tied to her body with a cloth strip.
Luo Li was afraid of death, so she had secretly put on the special forces uniform in the space, and hid the pistol in her arms in case of emergency. With Zhao Defang's body shielding her from behind and the long gun in Zhao Defang's hand protecting her from the front, she was considered safe.
The spear in Zhao Defang's hand was flying, and the spear head made of snowflake iron was extremely sharp. One by one, the heavily armored cavalrymen were pierced by his spear tip and fell off their horses.
Fearing the risk of an unexpected incident, Luo Li could respond with a pistol in time. She did not dare to close her eyes or hide her head, and watched the bloody massacre clearly. The enemy's blood splashed on her face, and she forgot to feel disgusted and forgot to wipe it off. Her heart was tense with a hint of excitement in the fierce battle.
Pang Ying's 96-jin snowflake iron sword finally came in handy. The princess was protected by His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin, so she finally had the chance to kill the enemy.
The sturdy warhorse carrying the burly Pang Ying rushed into the enemy group. A flash of cold light followed the warhorse. Wherever the cold light flashed, the heads and bodies of the heavy armored Iron Buddhas were torn apart. With his natural supernatural power and the sword that could cut through iron like mud, the heavy armor on the Iron Buddhas looked like paper.
Mulan'er followed closely beside Pang Ying, who was in the mood to kill. She clenched her teeth in nervousness and excitement. She also took the opportunity to use the snowflake iron sword in her hand to stab an Iron Pagoda to death.
Yang Yanqi was worthy of being the daughter of a general. She was not afraid when she charged into the battle line to kill the enemy for the first time. Her blood was boiling with excitement. She used the sword in her hand to bring out her extraordinary strength gained from her hard training and swung it at the Iron Pagoda heavy armored cavalry that were as strong as iron towers one after another.
Hulut's 10,000 Liao light-armored cavalry caught up, and the bows and arrows of the Song army on the city wall finally came in handy. A dense rain of arrows was thrown down, and the Liao army in the front was thrown down.
It turned out that when the Qin King Zhao Defang was chasing the Iron Pagoda, he deviated a few dozen steps to the south of the city wall, and the Liao army's light cavalry that was chasing him from behind was within the range of the archers on the city wall.
After the Song army on the city wall had fired all their arrows, they turned around and went down the city wall, mounted their horses, and ran out of Yingzhou City from the south gate.
I just received an order from His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin that we no longer need Yingzhou City!
Hulut led his men to circle the horses and turned to run north. There were rumbling thunder in front of them, flames blazing, smoke everywhere, and arrows raining down from the city walls. Only a fool would not run back to his own position!
More than half of the two thousand Iron Buddha heavy armored cavalry were killed in the explosion. King Qin Zhao Defang and Yang Yanzhao did not pursue the enemy. After gathering their troops, they galloped eastward.
I watched helplessly as the winning situation was reversed in an instant, and the enemy was killed quickly and fled without a trace.
"You little bastard Prince of Qin, you've gone too far in bullying me!" Yelu Xiezhen's eyes went dark, his body swayed, and he almost fell off his horse.
