Chapter 343 The Battle of Seizing the City
Li Xia didn't spend too much time with the soldiers of the Wuxin Army. Marching, entering the city, preparing, and mobilizing only took more than three days in total.

At this point of time, although he can't do everything with his arms and fingers, he can manage it pretty well.

There are many reasons. For example, the Suizhou Wuxin Army has been the elite division of Sichuan and Shu to fight against Mongolia for more than ten years, and there are even many veterans who participated in Yu Jie's battle to recover Hanzhong.And Li Xia is a civil servant, and he is under the command of Shu Shuai, so he naturally represents authority;

Among the more than [-] people, there are more than [-] people who are planning to put Nie Zhongyou directly under him. They have heard Nie Zhongyou and Lin Zi discuss the matter of going north in detail. Flaw, Wu Xinjun has long admired his name;

In the army, you must be convincing and put merit first.Li Xia beheaded Wuliang Hetai last year, and now he has captured Chengdu and beheaded Adahu for Pu Zezhi Li Yingwai, and his reputation has gradually increased;

In addition, there is another small detail. Among the more than [-] people led by Yang Ben, everyone has horses and leather armor, and they are quite generous.Sergeant Wu Xin's soldiers are not stupid, so it can be seen that Li Xia is willing to spend money on soldiers.

The most important thing is of course ability, Li Xia does not lack this kind of ability...

In this way, Li Xia dared to order Wu Xinjun to control Yao Shi'an the next night after entering Yunding City.

"You have all seen that, I was ordered to reinforce. Yao Shi'an refused, and then left me idle in Jintang Cliff. He refused to join forces to deal with the enemy, and the villain 300 people came to guard against his comrades. How could there be any intention of resisting Mongolia? "

"That's right!" A general in Wuxin's army shouted, "We were not allowed to enter the city last time, and we were not even given food and grass. I think he is not pleasing to the eye!"

This is actually not something that is pleasing to the eye.

Li Xia didn't answer, raised a military order, and said: "Pu Shuai saw through this person's selfish intentions, and secretly ordered me to take full responsibility for the defense of Yunding City. Tonight, I will take down Yao Shi'an, and use General Kong and Xiao as the city." Shou."

"I would like to obey the order of the commander of Shu!" Nie Zhongyou was the first to clasp his fists.

Yang Ben and Lin Zi followed closely behind.

The generals and team generals of the Wuxin Army also clasped their fists and accepted the order one after another.

Li Xia didn't even test whether the 300 people sent by Yao Shi'an could let them leave Jintang Cliff, and ordered Lin Zi to summon the three generals of Yao Shi'an, and took them down without saying a word.

Caught off guard, they broke through the line of defense and went straight to Yao Shi'an's mansion in the city.

For Wu Xinjun, who was fighting with Li Xia for the first time, he only felt that Li Zhixian only had four words to describe his actions... vigorous and resolute.

It was at this moment that they suddenly heard movement from the North City Gate.

The wind was strong on the mountain, and the night wind was blowing, and Li Xia suddenly shivered in the night wind.

He thought of many things in an instant, why didn't Yao Shi'an let him enter the city?Why put on such a big airs and suddenly die down?Why did you send people to watch Wu Xinjun?Why not entertain Kong Xian and Xiao Shixian at an inappropriate time?

"The strongest fortresses are often breached from the inside first..."

With this in mind, Li Xia shouted decisively: "Yao Shi'an is most likely to have rebelled. Nie Zhongyou, you go and rescue the two generals Kong and Xiao, and let them summon the defenders in the city to reinforce the north gate."

"what……"

"Go. The rest, follow me to reinforce the North Gate."

In his haste, Li Xia couldn't make a better arrangement, so he quickly led more than a thousand people to the north of the city.

In recent years, the serious crime of "underlying Mongolia" has been used to frame political opponents, killing several generals unjustly.In the absence of evidence, Li Xia was also unwilling to speculate on others with such malice. At first, it was because of Yao Shian's selfishness that he wanted to control him and replace him with someone more suitable as the guard of Yunding City.

Seeing the figure above Wengcheng from a distance, and hearing the slight Mongolian language that came with the wind, Li Xia was completely sure.

"Lin Zi, you lead 200 people to Qixingyan, set fire arrows on the dry grass on the top of the city, and smash the enemy soldiers in the urn with wood and stones."

"Yes."

"Yang Ben, you lead the cavalry to block the city gate in a while; Qiu Shou, you lead 100 people to support Yang Ben."

"Yes."

"The rest, fight back to the Urn City with all your strength. Jiang Jinshi, you lead 300 people to attack the west stairs; Ma Jiu, you attack the east stairs..."

Qiu Shou, Jiang Jinshi, and Ma Jiu were all generals of Wuxin's army, and they took orders without hesitation.

If they didn't have the heart to defend the country, after the defeat of Jiantandu, they would not have followed Nie Zhongyou to the west.Let alone at this critical time.

……

Li Xia hasn't commanded too much frontal battlefield so far, but he didn't command it well.

For example, Pu Zezhi fought against Adahu Alley in Chengdu. After entering the city, he immediately adjusted his formation. The heavy infantry in human armor was in front, and the archers were behind, slowly approaching.Every fifty steps or so, they stopped to reorganize their formation to avoid confusion, which would be taken advantage of by the cavalry.

At that time, the [-] army was divided into several formations. After each military order went down, the Chinese army would blow the horn first, and then the military order would be issued after each department responded with the horn.

When approaching a hundred steps, the Song army began to projectile, not to hurt the enemy, but to suppress the momentum of the enemy soldiers...

All these things, Li Xia was very educated when he watched in Pu Zezhi's army.

But that night, all of these were useless, he only had a thousand people, and what he wanted was to take back the Wengcheng as soon as possible.

Therefore, Li Xia chose to tell all the generals his strategic intentions at the very beginning, who was responsible for blocking the gate and who was responsible for capturing the city. He made a hasty and clear arrangement to prevent the Song soldiers from causing confusion due to his lack of command in the dark.

As Li Xia temporarily deceived the Mongolian general with the Mongolian language and led his troops straight to the inner city wall, they fought to regain the Wengcheng without hesitation.

Fortunately, Yang Ben, Lin Zi, Qiu Shou, Jiang Jinshi, Ma Jiu, and others were all low-level generals with rich experience. Although the Song soldiers rushed to the inner city, the line was not aligned, but it was not too chaotic...

~~
"kill!"

Yang Ben took the lead and charged towards the gate of the inner city with a spear.

The city gate was not wide enough to allow five people to pass side by side, and four Mongolian soldiers walked in parallel. The soldiers who passed through the city gate walked up the stone steps in the east and west directions in twos. At this time, they only formed a thin line of defense in front of the city gate.

Yang Ben killed suddenly. Before the Mongolian soldiers could react, they saw a spear stabbing heavily, knocking down a Mongolian soldier.

Tonight was mountaineering and stealing the city, and it was hot at the end of July. This Mongolian soldier felt hot when he was climbing the mountain, so he took off his leather armor. He was pierced by the spear and fell to the ground with a scream. Sorry.

What Yang Ben wanted was such a decisive momentum, but he didn't expect that the spear could not be pulled out, so he immediately abandoned the spear and slashed fiercely with a single sword.

"Beautiful!"

Soon, Yang Ben got off his horse and was stabbed twice, knocking him to the ground.

On the frontal battlefield, cavalry is rarely used like him. Most of them attack first and keep attacking until the enemy soldiers are exhausted, and then charge at the end; on the other hand, Yang Ben's charge is equivalent to exchanging cavalry and infantry Life.

But the most important thing tonight is to take back the city gate, how can I care about these?
As soon as Yang Benfu landed, he hugged a Mongolian soldier and rolled on the spot.

"boom!"

Behind him, another cavalryman bumped up and slammed into the city gate, turning his back on his back.

Inside the door were densely packed Mongolian troops, roaring angrily when they were hit.

"Seize the door!" Yang Ben hissed.

With a bang, he was crushed to the ground.

However, a Mongolian army was shot down from the top of the city, and the body fell on a Mongolian soldier. When the Mongolian soldier fell down, he also overwhelmed Yang Ben.

Yang Ben felt severe pain in his waist, and he pushed twice, but he couldn't use his strength to push the two corpses away.

"Shieldman! Shieldman! Quick! Block the gate."

Qiu Shou roared loudly, and quickly sent someone to grab him.

"Yang Ben! Change the pawns to block the city gate, you lead people to prepare for the next charge... You guys, grab General Yang Bai!"

"Boom bang bang..."

The Mongolian army's scimitar kept chopping on the Song army's shield.

From time to time, people fell to the ground, and the city gate was quickly filled with corpses...

~~
On the stone steps to the west, Jiang Jinshi directed the heavy armored infantry to hold spears in front, followed by sword soldiers, and archers stood below to shoot arrows at the Mongolian army at the top of the city.

He divided the soldiers under his command into a row of four, and the four heavy armored infantry squeezed on the stone steps. There was no room to move around, and they could only fight forward bravely.

They kept stabbing the Mongolian army with their spears. In contrast, the Mongolian army who climbed the mountain and attacked with only leather armor seemed much more strenuous.Every stab of the spear can reap the lives of the Mongolian army in front.

Although the Mongolian army was not good at defending the city, they pushed down the ready-made wood and stones placed on the top of the city.Every time they hit these Song soldiers with a bang, they screamed and fell down the stone steps.

At the same time, arrows were shot down from the top of the city, and Song soldiers fell to the ground from time to time.

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty attacked with their backs and did not take advantage of the land. This aspect was very difficult, and the casualties were much greater than those at the city gate.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Jinshi's heart ached to death, and he hated the treason who surrendered to the enemy more and more.

Based on the structure of Yunding City, this land should belong to the Song army, how many Mengtars can it kill?
"Damn it! Damn it! Let me attack you, the faster you attack me, the fewer brothers will die!"

"Attack! Kill!"

~~
In the battle of Jiantandu, although the Wuxin army was defeated, they were able to fight the Mongolian army for a day, and their combat power was actually quite amazing.They knew that now was not the time to spare their lives. Once the Mongolian army captured the city, they would have no chance of surviving.

As far as the Mongolian army is concerned, tonight is the best chance to win the Yunding City, which has stood for more than [-] years.

Both sides have the determination to fight a bloody battle, and the battlefield becomes more and more cruel...

~~
The flames on the top of the city were brightly lit, and the sweat beads on the face of the forest belt were clearly visible.

The veins on his forehead twitched violently.

Tonight was different from what he thought.He had to admit that Yao Shi'an's plan to return to Xiancheng was frustrated.

The casualties were already too great. If all the defenders in the city were to rush up and destroy all the Mongolian troops they brought, they would not be able to attack Yunding City.

His only hope is that after defeating the thousand defenders, Yao Shi'an can still control Yunding City.

Or defend until a large force sent by Newell enters the city.

"Hold on! Hold on! Marshal Du will have reinforcements soon!"

However, in the darkness of night, there was only movement in the city...

Tuolindai gritted his teeth and looked into Yunding City, only to see more than two hundred people running towards this side.

He hesitated, if this was reinforcements from the Song army, he would retreat.

Suddenly, Zhang Wei shouted: "It's Yao Chengshou! It's Yao Chengshou..."

"Quick!" Tuolin was overjoyed and shouted, "Let Yao Shi'an attack the back of the Song army! Hurry up..."
