Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 930 Attack on Tongguan

The dull drum sound echoed in the sky and the earth, stirring up the white mist in the morning, announcing the beginning of another day of attack.

Outside Tongguan, a high mound of earth has been built to make it easier for Huangfusong's soldiers to mount the mound and shoot at Tongguan's archers. After transporting the straw bags and soil bags to these mounds, try to stack these mounds as high as possible.

On the mound, soldiers or civilians were shot by arrows from time to time, and then screamed and rolled under the mound, becoming a part of this huge man-made landscape.

Today's Tongguan City is even more tragic than the situation in the mound.Tongguan City was not big at first, and it was built on the back of a big river and mountains. After days of attacks, there have been many decayed places, and they have not been repaired in time. Throw in some straw bags, and these defects are also the focus area for the next attack, resulting in layers of fallen corpses of soldiers from both sides around this place.

Under the city walls of Tongguan, all siege equipment is scattered.There were ladders, crashed cars, and even a siege tower. Most of the people pulling these tools were ordinary people, both strong men and women. They died everywhere and fell under the city of Tongguan.These attack tools were prepared by Huangfusong in advance, but most of them have been smashed and damaged. In order to prevent Huangfusong from being recycled, Hu Zhen in Tongguan even sent a death squad to hang them down the city and burn them. The two sides are fighting for these On the equipment, it was like a meat grinder, bloody and bloody from the battle, and on top of the burnt black equipment, there were still one or two equally charred corpses...

Under the Tongguan city wall, there are still many gaps in the city wall dug by soldiers and civilians.And around the gap in the city wall, there are shields and rocks on the left and right. Under these shields and rocks, there are soldiers and civilians who have been smashed to death. No, it seemed that what died was not a living person, but a soul that had already died.

Whether it is the attacking side or the defending side, every city and wall is covered with a layer of flesh and blood. Some people are not dead yet, just tossing and crying among the piles of corpses, but no one pays much attention to it. At a glance, just let those injured people struggle among the dead, and the blood flowed out with painful groans, and then gradually fell silent.

At this time, no one would show that so-called compassionate heart, and no one would go forward to treat those wounded soldiers, because no one knew whether the next one to fall over there would be himself.

On the top of the city, the same corpses were also piled up on the ground, some even higher than the crenel, and the blood flowed down the city wall, as thick as a layer of red and black patina wrapped around Tongguan.The Xiliang guards on the city wall, after experiencing such a big battle, have no strength, just move around like walking corpses, let alone talk to their comrades around them, only those who are covered with blood, sweat and dust The occasional eyeballs on the dark face proved that this person was still alive.

And on the mound, behind the pile of corpses, are the troops of the Southern Huns.They didn't need to attack the city, they just relied on the mound of soil that was gradually leveling with the city wall, shot arrows at the top of the city to suppress it, and covered Huangfusong's soldiers for a strong attack.The densely packed leather felt hats on the mound were laughing and laughing, saying a word or two from time to time, followed by the sound of laughter.

Some of Huangfusong's soldiers couldn't stand it anymore. Why did they let this group of Southern Huns stand and watch a joke when they were beating their lives to death? But after complaining to Huangfusong, they were reprimanded and returned.

Who made Huangfusong have no cavalry under his command?

If you want to be stationed in Chang'an, if you want to be able to fight the Xiliang cavalry in the next battle, can you just rely on infantry?This is also an important factor why Yang Biao and Huangfusong salivated at Fei Qian's troops...

A military marquis under Huangfusong's command was also covered in blood, sweat, and plaster. He couldn't see anything except a human figure. He ran down a mound and shouted at the civilians below: Go with someone? During the march, two meals a day! There will be a reward for defeating Tongguan!"

The people who have been numb from the torture are mostly listening indifferently. They have no energy to react, they are just fighting for their lives. Fill in the moats, or even paint the walls with blood?

Some strong men who still have a little strength struggled to stand up and surrounded the military marquis. With a little bit of hope, they replenished the pawns, and maybe the treatment would be better. At least they would be given an armored weapon, at least they would be able to eat. Hot meal, at least there are more chances to survive!

Even so, it doesn't mean that everyone can join the army in battle.

The military marquis picked and picked, and without saying a word to the civilians who surrounded him, he just punched the chest, and those who could resist, or simply resisted, waved his hand and asked them to stand aside Go, as for those who were knocked to the ground with a single punch, they didn't even bother to take a second look.

"Give them pancakes! Is there any hot soup?! Serve them up together!" After selecting dozens of people, the Marquis Jun gathered them together, and began to ask those in charge of logistics supplies to deliver food.

Seeing the food, a few hungry civilian men rushed forward regardless, but were beaten to the ground by a group of soldiers who came from nowhere, and then wiped their noses honestly The blood left on the ground, obediently stand in a team.

"This is your corporal leader! The team leader! The fucking line is all ready! That team will be lined up first, and the team will serve the pancakes first!" Junhou waved his hands and shouted loudly, "I've joined the army! , Pancakes, weapons, battle armor, and money are all indispensable to you! But there is one thing! Remember it all fucking clearly! The military order, you have to do what you are told! Otherwise, the one who dies under the sword of the supervising team will be a fool !"

While the Marquis was shouting, those corporal chiefs, special chiefs, and team leaders who came over immediately pulled their queues.In fact, these corporal leaders, special leaders and team leaders are mostly small soldiers in the previous army. It's just that they were lucky and survived several attacks, so they were promoted to block the small officers...

"Military orders move forward, and soldiers who don't move forward, the corporal leader will kill him! If the corporal leader doesn't move forward, he will be chopped at the longest! If the leader retreats, the team leader will kill him! If the team leader retreats, the Qu Chang will kill him! Qu Chang retreat Yes, someone will cut it! If someone retreats, the general will cut him down!" The military marquis drew out his saber with a bang, and waved it in the air, the cold light shone on the saber, and there was still some scarlet that hadn't receded, which made people shudder.

Junhou watched the formation gradually take shape, nodded in satisfaction, immediately stood on a stone, and shouted loudly: "Take down Tongguan! There will be rewards! Regardless of whether you live or die after the battle in Tongguan, Duke Yang will give you five!" Acres of good land! You are gone, so naturally I will give it to your brothers and relatives! Think about five acres of land! Use more bloody energy! If the first batch climbed to Tongguan, each person will have ten acres of land! There are first-level credits, and extra Reward!"

Although five mu of land is not much, it is so precious when most of the land is concentrated in the hands of the gentry. It is naturally very different to have your own field or rent the land of the gentry in the countryside. .

For these civilian husbands, they don't have much concept of what is worth a lot of money, because they have never seen this money before, but the land is indeed what they have longed for since they were young. After being encouraged, they all opened their eyes wide, clenched their fists, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva involuntarily.

If you go all out, you can earn five acres of land for your family!

A cheap life, fight for it!
In fact, not everyone in the Yang family is willing to give out their own land as a reward. Although five acres per person is not much, it is not a small sum when counted by tens of thousands of people. Naturally, some people will Distressed.

But Yang Biao has a tough attitude, because he knows that if there is land and no one, and no military power, no matter how much land there is, it is useless at all. Only by winning the current victory will there be more Otherwise, it would be like Dong Zhuo was going to move the capital before, sending thousands of soldiers to tear Hongnong into pieces.

Because Yang Biao had never led the army before, he had to cooperate with Huangfusong. Of course, this kind of cooperation seems to be relatively harmonious now, and the mutual cooperation is not bad, but who knows that such cooperation can still be maintained how long?

Huangfusong didn't have much in mind, but now, he could only take one step at a time.

The current state of the Han Dynasty, these people above the court are far more clear than those in the countryside!The weakness of the Han Dynasty can only be seen more clearly and understood more thoroughly by these people who live in it!

Huangfu Song is no exception.

The Yellow Turban Rebellion...

The current situation is even more chaotic and terrifying than the Yellow Turban Rebellion!
What Zhang Jiao said was "Huang Tian"'s great virtuous master, the leader of the Taiping Dao, but in reality?
Without some official support, which religion can swagger unscrupulously?

Taiping Road, hehe.

Tang Zhou, hehe, is actually Tang Zhou, also the Zhou of the imperial court...

At the beginning, Huangfusong couldn't see these things clearly at once, but everything was the same, after a long time, after thinking it through, he naturally found out some context.

Therefore, when Dong Zhuo was in the court, Huangfusong had no chance, and when Wang Yun was in power, Huangfusong also did not gain military power, but now, the Yang family is using Huangfusong, but after all, isn’t it Huangfusong’s own chance?

But other things can only be done slowly in the future, no matter what happens now, at this moment, Huangfusong only has one goal, Tongguan!

Everything else must be discussed after the capture of Tongguan.

Now the soldiers of Xiliang had just breathed their last breath, as long as Huangfusong could last longer and longer, he would naturally be the final winner!
Although the Yang family has some characters, they are not strong in military and martial arts, so most of the soldiers that Huangfusong originally brought out of Chang'an City have been assigned to serve as the commanders of the current army. It is said that it is Yang Gong's signboard, but in fact it is mostly Huangfusong who manages it...

The beating of the drums stopped, and Huangfusong watched the wave of offensives being stopped by the Xiliang soldiers in Tongguan. He couldn't help frowning, forming deep wrinkles in the word Sichuan between his brows.

A retreating military marquis came to Huangfusong panting.

This military marquis was injured at some point on his face, and he wrapped half of his face with some cloth strips. The wound didn't seem to be completely solidified, and a few lines of blood mixed with sweat under the already red and black cloth strips. flow down.

The Marquis Jun walked up to Huangfusong crookedly, fell to the ground with a "plop", and said with difficulty: "...General... Let the brothers take a breath...It is really impossible to attack... For the past few days, the brothers have been sleeping In the wild, eating dry biscuits, you have to brave the rain of arrows to take the lead, no one flinches, but... But the damage is too great... Half of the brothers who came out of Kyoto are left now..."

Huangfusong frowned, looked at the wounded Marquis, sighed suddenly, and said, "I remember you...you followed me in the seventh year of Guanghe..."

The military marquis kowtowed and said: "...Yes, General Meng Cheng still remembers..."

Huangfusong nodded and said: "Well, it's an old battle formation... Then tell me, why do you want to take a break?"

Junhou said: "General! Look at these brothers now, most of them are old people who have followed the general for many years, but now...seeing each one of them die under this Tongguan! I am waiting for these old people, and half of them are dead now. It's not here... The brothers have been attacking Tongguan since three days ago, and they haven't stopped. Now they are exhausted...General, I am not retreating from the next battle, but I just hope that I can leave some bones and blood in the army, and don't waste all of them. Under this Tongguan...General! As long as I wait a day or two to recover some strength, I can definitely conquer Tongguan in one go!"

Huangfusong frowned, stood up, came to the Junhou, patted the kneeling Junhou's shoulder, and said: "...what you said is not unreasonable...they are all old people who follow me...whatever , you can go to rest first... But, Tongguan must be taken down quickly! The emperor is still waiting for us to rescue, and the Han Dynasty is waiting for me to help. If even one Tongguan cannot be taken, then we will have another What face do you go to see the Son of Heaven?"

Marquis Jun was stunned for a moment, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only bow again, and when he was about to get up and retreat, he heard Huangfusong continue to say in a low voice: "...Since you want to rest so much, why don't you rest?" Take a good rest..."

While speaking, the guard standing behind Huangfusong had already stepped forward a few steps, and in the blink of an eye, there was a flash of a knife, and it passed between the necks of this military marquis!
Junhou's head soared into the sky, and after hovering for a few weeks, it landed on the muddy ground, with some stunned expressions...

"Pull the head to the front of the line! Order the whole army! Military law is current, no selfishness is tolerated! Those who go against the army, beheaded! Those who disobey the army order, beheaded!" Huangfusong said with his hands behind his back, "Drumming! Continue!" Siege!...Come here, prepare torches! No matter what, we must go to Tongguan today!"
