Three Kingdoms Star System

Chapter 890
Before the siege, Liu He had already made a clear division of labor. Wang Yanlong was responsible for leading the army to cover up and kill from behind, and seized the opportunity to snatch the city gate, leaving the general guard and three thousand troops to guard the city gate to prevent the Jurchens from escaping; At the south gate of the city, Wang Yanzhang and Xu Huang split up the road. After the gate was breached, Wang Yanzhang entered the inner city, and Xu Huang was in charge of guarding the gate to prevent the Jurchens from escaping from here.

At the north city gate, there were Zhou Dewei and veteran Huang Zhong. After the city was broken, Zhou Dewei used Zhou Dewei to attack the inner city. Huang Zhong was responsible for guarding the gate of the city to prevent the Jurchens from escaping.

Only the west gate was relatively weak. The two generals were Gao Xianzhi and Wang Xiaojie. However, Liu He only gave them the task of guarding the gate to prevent the enemy from escaping, which was relatively easy.

In order to be able to complete the task, Gao Xianzhi and Wang Xiaojie negotiated to build a defense along the moat, laying down bows and crossbows. As soon as the enemy rushed up, they would immediately shoot ten thousand crossbows and shoot them into hedgehogs.

Of course, even so, the pressure on the West City Gate will definitely be greater than that of the other city gates, because the other city gates are opened directly from the outside to the inside. Even if someone escapes, it must be only a small part, but the West City Gate has never It has not been attacked, so the number of escaped is naturally more than other city gates.

However, there were only 3 or [-] Jurchens in total, and at least half of the number of people who were wiped out by the Han army, and those who fled to other city gates were removed, and the number of people who came to the east gate was no more than tens of thousands. Although the defense was difficult, it was not difficult. As for not being able to hold on.

So Gao Xianzhi and Wang Xiaojie cooperated with each other, calmly and calmly faced the battle, and resolutely attacked the Jurchen soldiers who dared to rush over.

Of course, the most important role in this is the crossbow. The soldiers of the Han army are arranged in a neat formation, with bows and arrows, and they are ready. As long as the enemy dares to show their heads, they will immediately greet them with bows and arrows. Three or four hundred Jurchens were shot and killed.

However, these are only the Jurchen soldiers guarding the city gate and the top of the city. They heard that all the gates in the other three directions have fallen, and the Han army has already invaded the inner city. When they resisted, they knew that the situation was over, so they gave up their guards, opened the city gates, lowered the drawbridge and prepared to escape.

However, after walking out of the city gate, they realized that the nightmare had just begun. The crossbow arrows of the Han army penetrated into their bodies like poisonous snakes, devouring their lives, making them daunting.

But the threat of death made them crazy. Now, going forward is death, and retreating is also death, and the probability of death is [-]% if you go back, but you still have a certain vitality if you go forward.

So all the people frantically flocked to the west city gate. Taking advantage of the large number of people, they blocked the crossbow arrows of the Han army with their flesh and blood, and then rushed forward little by little.

Although the crossbows of the Han army are powerful, the city gate and the suspension bridge are only that wide, which means that there are only so many people killed and injured at the same time. In addition, some Jurchens hold shields and even hold the bodies of the people killed in front of them. Rushing forward, this made the threat of the Han army's crossbow arrows less and less, and the damage became less and less.

What's particularly deadly is that the Han army's crossbow arrows are running out. More than an hour has passed. Although the Han army has killed two to three thousand Jurchen soldiers, sixty-seven out of ten of the crossbow arrows have been fired. The remaining arrows can kill several people. A hundred people were already standing tall, but the number of Jurchens rushing to the city gate is still increasing. I believe that when their bows and arrows run out, there will still be thousands of people rushing over. No matter how neatly the Han soldiers are arrayed, I'm afraid that at that time, it will be difficult to stop the crazy impact of those Jurchens.

So now Gao Xianzhi and Wang Xiaojie are all frowning, thinking about countermeasures.

A moment later, Wang Xiaojie's eyes suddenly brightened, and he cupped his hands to Gao Xianzhi and said, "General Gao, the general believes that our task today is not to kill or injure many people, but to ensure that no one escapes, and the reason why the Jurchens are now The reason they rushed here crazily is because the road here is clear, as long as we think of a way to make the road into a barrier so that they can't pass through, they will naturally have to find another way."

"It's a good idea to turn the road into a barrier?" Gao Xianzhi, the chief general, nodded upon hearing this, and said with a smile, "Could it be that the general meant to break the suspension bridge and make the Jurchens lose hope?"

"That's right, we want to take the opportunity to destroy the suspension bridge and make it impossible for them to pass through. As long as they can't pass through, they will lose hope. Naturally, they will not charge here desperately. At that time, we will use the remaining bows and arrows to shoot from a long distance. As long as their panic becomes chaotic, we will succeed." Wang Xiaojie followed Gao Xianzhi's words and said with a smile.

"General Wang really has a good idea," Gao Xianzhi praised unceasingly, and then said with a smile: "Before dark, His Majesty gave me two large barrels of kerosene to take with the army, saying that it might be useful at night. He Yi, now it seems that everything is within His Majesty's clever calculations, haha, today we will use these two barrels of kerosene to make meritorious deeds."

"Fire oil? This is really great. It is said that this fire oil will catch fire, and I believe it will do wonders. Now that the westerly wind is blowing, it is the best time for us to set fire. It is not too late, let's do it immediately. "Wang Xiaojie clapped his hands and laughed loudly.

Gao Xianzhi nodded, and immediately ordered the sergeant to bring the two barrels of kerosene over, then dumped the kerosene on the suspension bridge, and then ignited it. In an instant, the flames were boiling, and they rushed towards the city gate quickly, devouring the Those Jurchen soldiers on the suspension bridge.

"Ahhh!" the Jurchen soldiers who were engulfed by the flames cried out in pain, and jumped into the moat one after another. However, most of the Jurchen soldiers couldn't swim, and even if they could swim, they couldn't break through the defense of the An army, and they all drowned in the moat. Inside the moat.

A moment later, there was only a loud bang, the suspension bridge was burnt, and then fell into the moat, which made the Jurchens completely desperate. direction to escape.

However, at this time too many people had gathered outside the city gate, and there were still people pouring in from the city to the outside of the city, which caused the city gate to be blocked by Jurchens coming in and out, and there was a sudden order. After a moment of chaos, the impatient Jurchens began to wave their weapons and slash at the clansmen in front, in order to make a passage and escape smoothly.

When one person took the lead, more people followed suit. Suddenly, the Jurchens killed each other, causing complete chaos.

But at this moment, there was only a sharp sound of piercing through the air, and the feathered arrows of the Han army flew again, attacking the escaped Jurchens from behind, which brought more sense of crisis to the Jurchens. In order to escape, he could only slaughter other people even more frantically so that he could escape.

As a result, the situation became even more chaotic. Many Jurchens did not die at the hands of the Han people, but died at the hands of their clansmen. Blood flowed into rivers and dyed the city gates red.
