Chapter 86(1/2)
As it turns out, Li Yu's words are very effective.
After hearing that the oxen was taking medicine, the defenders suddenly realized.
It turns out that the owl's fearlessness is not afraid of death, the owl's tenacious vitality, and the owl's ignorance of pain are not different from themselves, but are supported by drugs.
Meeting on a narrow road, fighting in close combat, the brave will win!
Once morale is suppressed by the enemy, no matter how many people are, it will be just a mustard.
When morale increases, even if the strength is very different, it will still have the power to fight against the enemy.
This is exactly what is happening now.
The defenders' fear of the owls has dropped sharply.
What followed was a great increase in morale and a great momentum.
People's attacks are no longer blind, but targeted attacks on the head, neck, heart and other key points.
In actual combat, the owls who suffered heavy blows were killed on the spot, just like the Zhou people.
After the soldiers killed the Xiaoren with their own hands, their morale became even higher, and the sounds of shouting and killing were overwhelming.
The prefect Zhang Hong and Lu Fang remained in the city gate tower.
Zhang Hong asked in confusion: "Zhengren Lu, how did your highness know that these owls have taken medicine?"
Lu Fang blinked and said deeply: "What's so strange about your highness knowing astronomy, geography, and the owls take medicine to help fight?"
"Uh? Yes, yes, I'm asking this more!"
Zhang Hong smiled bitterly.
The rumors he heard about the Seventeenth Prince were completely different.
Lu Fang looked at Li Yu who participated in the battle in person, and the smile on his face deepened a little.
He had already guessed Li Yu's psychology.
Regardless of whether the owl has taken medicine or not, in order to maximize the morale and fighting spirit of the soldiers, this must be said.
Lu Fang showed a thoughtful look.
He felt that Li Yu was growing too fast, so fast that he was beyond imagination.
Faced with an unfavorable situation, I immediately came up with a solution to deal with it.
This is no longer a question of whether you are smart or not, but a accumulation of strong insights.
But Li Yu is a playboy living in the capital!
Lu Fang was also deeply puzzled by this.
What he didn't know was that as a modern person, even if he was just the most ordinary modern person, Li Yu's knowledge accumulation was the crystallization of thousands of years of human wisdom.
What's more, Li Yu himself likes history very much, and has seen a lot of Chinese history and foreign history.
It is precisely because of this that Li Yu recognized at a glance that the battle of the Owls was very similar to that of the berserkers in ancient Europe.
After more than half an hour of bloody battle, most of the owls who attacked the city were killed in battle, and some of them fell down the city wall. I don’t know whether they were dead or alive.
The owls who remained under the city wall chose to retreat when they saw that their attack failed.
The first battle between the two sides came to an end.
When cleaning the battlefield, the owl left more than 300 corpses on the top of the city.
What is terrible is that the defenders who took up all the right time, place, and people had suffered more than 400 casualties.
Most of the casualties were caused when the Owls first climbed to the top of the city.
After the battle, there were 4,500 defenders, and there were still 4,000 people left.
And this battle was just a tentative attack from the Owl Army.
As the first group of attacking Xiaojun was defeated, Xi Yu's face did not change much.
He turned his head and said, "Wuzhuo, Wulitu."
Hearing his call, two owl men immediately walked to the carriage and said in unison: "Xi Yu!"
"You two, each lead two thousand troops to take Pyeongchang City for me! When the city is broken, you two can lead your troops to plunder first."
Wu Zhuo and Wulitu, their eyes were bright, and they both stroked their chests and bowed, and both said, "Xi Yu, please wait for the good news of our breaking the city!"
In the camp of the Owl Army, howlings and drumbeats were heard again.
Soon, the Xiao army with thousands of people walked out of their camp and took the stance of preparing for an attack.
On the top of the city.
Seeing that the number of Xiaojun attacks was several times higher than before, everyone's expression became solemn.
People know in their hearts that the next battle will be more intense and more difficult than the previous battle.
Guan Ying walked to Li Yu and asked, "Your Highness, I see that this group of oxen troops must be at least 4,000 people up. Can we still withstand it?"
Li Yu still looked at the Xiao Jun outside the field and asked back: "Why didn't you participate in the battle just now?"
Just now, the owl attacked the city, and Li Yuyou noticed that Guan Ying and the tiger-fang camp he waved did not take any action.
Guan Ying shrugged and said, "I don't want to die, nor do I want my brothers to die."
"So, what about now?"
"I don't want to wait for death! I don't want my brothers to wait for death!"
"So, you want to run?"
Li Yu finally turned to look at him.
"With Your Highness here, there is still something to fight in this battle!"
Although Guan Ying did not participate in the battle, he has been carefully observing it.
Li Yu stabilized his morale with just one sentence, and he saw it.
The seventeenth prince was really not crazy and ran to Pyeongchang City to fight the Xiaojun.
In Guanying's opinion, Li Yu has some real skills.
He asked, "What will your highness plan to fight next? What tactics are used?"
Li Yu shrugged and said, "There is no tactic."
"ah?"
"The soldiers come and the generals stop them, and the water comes and the soil covers them!"
"hehe!"
Guan Ying couldn't help laughing out loud.
Li Yu ignored him again. He turned around, looked at the other soldiers on the top of the city, and said loudly: "The Xiao Army's large group of troops are about to attack the city. Are you afraid?"
No one spoke, and the city was silent.
Li Yuzhen said, "If you are afraid, you will still be anxious to escape now!"
This statement finally aroused people's response.
"Your Highness, I would rather die than run away!"
"Yes! Even if I die in battle, I will not be a deserter!"
Death in battle will benefit the family.
If you are a deserter, not only will you be ruined in your life, but your family will also be implicated.
Li Yu looked around everyone, nodded, and said, "Well said it! You are unwilling to be deserters, and I, Li Yu, will not be deserters! In this battle, I and all the soldiers, swear to live and die with Pingchang! Fight with the thieves to the end!"
As he spoke, he pulled out the sword under his ribs, remained silent for a moment, and said loudly:
“Since Pangu opened the sky,
The Three Emperors Determined the Kingdom, the Five Emperors Developed the Frontier,
Whenever a country encounters a major event,
A man must be in sacrifice and military service, and sacrifice his body to the country.
That is, the bones are scattered into hills, and the rivers are bleed,
You should not humiliate the country's territory or lose the country's territory.
Scholars, with a brave heart,
Will, put it on the blade,
handsome, full of blood in his sleeves,
King, Blade Glow.
I do not distinguish between old and young, nor between first and second,
