Chapter 889: The First Northern Expedition
Woo woo woo woo woo!
"Kill!"
"Boom boom boom boom boom!"
"Board! Brothers! Bing all of you!"
"Kill!"
"The first one rushed up! Reward a hundred taels of silver! Upgrade three levels in a row! Give me all!"
"Ahhhh!"
"Dongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong!"
At this time, several counties south of Kaifeng Prefecture were attacked by the rebels of the Little Tang King.
The army of the Tang Dynasty was divided into three groups. Zhu Youjian was personally in charge of the middle army, and Zhu Youjian sent out his confidant generals, and the West Army. The general who commanded the army was Zuo Liangyu.
Although the Chenzhou County failed, Zhu Youjian did not do anything to him. Although there were some punishments, it was not heavy. It was just that he had no chance to become the number one general of the Tang Dynasty King's Army.
However, this person had great battlefield experience at least, so Zhu Youjian still entrusted him with important tasks and sent him to be the commander of the Western Route Army and command the entire Western Route Army.
Now his goal is Mi County, an important town in Kaifeng. He opened up here. The roads south of Kaifeng were taken down by the Tang Wangjun. At that time, the Tang Wangjun could drive straight into the city of Kaifeng.
The sound of war drums sounded, and the soldiers launched fierce attacks on Mi County like a tide.
The main attacker is in the south, so Zuo Liangyu is also in the south at this time.
At this time, Zuo Liangyu had more than 12,000 troops in the Western Route Army, but it was much more than the one he led at that time. In addition, during this period, he led troops to conquer cities and seized a lot of places. Now he looked red and full of red faces, so he was so energetic.
"Catch Mi County! I invite you brothers to drink! A big bowl of wine! A big mouthful of meat!" Zuo Liangyu rode on a high-headed horse and shouted at the soldiers who were charging.
"Kill!"
Countless ladders and dozens of people pushed forward, but now the bird gun has been replaced. The original simple ladder has been used for a long time. The siege weapon ladder chariot has been made in the army, which is enough for him to use it for 12,000 troops.
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"
More than a dozen Folang machine guns roared and hit the city walls one after another. The city walls of Mi County were not made of blue bricks like Kaifeng, but were made of loess mixed with glutinous rice.
Of course, the ability to protect shells is not as good as that of blue bricks. So under the bombardment of the artillery fire, the city wall began to suffer damage, and a small hole was broken one after another, and in some places, small gaps had even appeared in serious cases.
Zuo Liangyu was directing his soldiers to aim at the gaps and launching a fierce attack.
He is competing with each other every day, and the Ming army is not that weak.
This time they foresaw a regular army. Three thousand Ming troops gathered in a small Mi County. They stubbornly guarded the city wall, and the rolling stone wood hit the Tang Wang army below.
"Hey! Hey!"
A spoonful of hot gold juice rolled down and poured on the head of a soldier Wang Jun who was climbing upwards.
"Ahhhh!" The soldier of Tang Wang's army who was poured on his face screamed and fell down with his head in his arms. The burned area immediately blisters appeared and even began to rot.
"Okay, okay! You should fight like this! Beat me hard! If you win, I ask your Majesty to reward you with heavy rewards!" A veteran with a white bearded face was covered with black and gray, patrolling the city wall, cheering the soldiers while re-adjusting the defenses on the city wall.
"General! Dongcheng is in a hurry! The rebels attacked too hard!" Qianhu, who had lost his helmet, hurriedly ran over.
"What! Then what are you cooking! You must keep it! Transfer the people below to you for another 200 times. If you can't keep it, I will chop your dog's head!" The old general grabbed the thousand-household collar and said angrily.
"Yes! The general of the Mo must guard the East City! If he can't defend the general of the Mo, the body of the general blocks the city gate first!" The Qianhu who came over received support immediately left with support.
The Tang Wang Army was still attacking fiercely, and the pressure on the city wall was very huge. The key was that the army's weapons and equipment were not so strong. Some even didn't even have clothes and cloth armor, and they were wearing rotten clothes. They were thin and rotten clothes. They were so cold that their hands and feet were swollen. The frostbite on them were long and yellow liquid oozing out of the wound.
But they were still stubborn and unscathed by the fierce attacks below.
"Boom! Boom!" Two shells fell on the city wall, and several soldiers were hit by the solid iron balls, and they were either dead or disabled. The bloody scene did not cause any changes to the army. They were still stubbornly fighting the enemy.
They used their rusty swords full of notches, or used their less sharp and broken gun tips to attack the rebels.
They were like a Great Wall to defend their position. No matter how powerful the enemy was or how fierce the enemy's attack was, they always used their flesh and blood to protect this position.
"Kill!" The old general held the hilt of the knife in both hands and cut off the head of a rebel who rushed up the city wall with one knife.
"Retreat! Retreat!"
After a fierce attack, Zuo Liangyu saw that the sky was almost gone, so he cried out the gold and withdrew his troops. Even if he continued to attack at night, the soldiers would not see anything. He must be the one who suffered the loss.
It was a pity that they could not hold on even the top, but they were sorry that they could hold on again.
Wait! I will definitely be able to defeat this Mi County tomorrow!
A trace of gloom flashed in Zuo Liangyu's eyes.
The Ming soldiers with nerves on the city wall saw the rebels below retreating, and their nerves broke down and they all collapsed, leaning on the battlements one by one, or just lying on the ground and unwilling to move.
Even though they were surrounded by blood, even if they were broken limbs and broken arms and corpses were everywhere, they didn't care at all. Almost at the same time, snoring sounds on the city wall one after another.
"Ha! Huh! Huh! Huh!"
The old general held his tired body and was still inspecting the city wall.
"General!" The Qianhu from the East City I saw before saw the general coming and greeted him.
I saw that the iron armor on Qianhu's body had been cut and traces were everywhere, and some places had even cut out the gaps, and blood was faintly revealed.
"When the old general saw this, he didn't have to say much, so he could only bury his words in one sentence and pat his shoulder.
"Thanks a lot!"
Suddenly, the Qianhu's eyes turned red, and there seemed to be grievances in their eyes and I didn't know who to say to anyone.
"General! I'm not working hard, thank you for your hard work!"
Chapter completed!
