Chapter 1292 Attack from both sides
Chapter 1290: Attack from both sides
Gao Chong relied on his own bravery to easily climb the tower. Once stones and rolling logs came close to him, they would be knocked away by him with his weapons.
After boarding the tower, Gao Chong wanted to kill Murong Nong directly so that Yuan Meng would completely lose the command level. However, Murong Nong was not on the tower, and Gao Chong didn't know where Murong Nong was, so he reluctantly gave up. This plan.
Gao Chong could not really be so arrogant that he fought his way into the pass despite the crowds, and only returned after killing Murong Nong.
Although there is no one who can threaten him in Zhenbei Pass, he does not have nearly infinite physical strength like Li Yuanba. Although Gao Chong's physical strength is abundant, it is also limited. Even if he fights to exhaustion, he can only kill a thousand people at most. , but there are fully 20,000 defenders in Zhenbei Pass.
Therefore, for the sake of the overall situation and for his own sake, Gao Chong temporarily gave up the idea of killing Murong Nong. He could only guard a corner of the city wall and help more soldiers climb up to fight alongside him.
Murong Nong was commanding the army to defend while observing the enemy's situation. Seeing that the Han generals who were attacking the city were extremely brave and climbed onto the tower so quickly, he was extremely anxious, so he decisively mobilized a heavy army to encircle and suppress Gao Chong.
Under Gao Chong's hard fighting and cover, at least three to four hundred people climbed up the tower. Although people continued to come up, the overall number could not increase.
It was impossible for Gao Chong to protect everyone who boarded the city, and those who boarded the city had to face two or even three enemies. Therefore, boarding the tower was just the beginning of a fierce battle, and both sides fell into a stalemate. .
Gao Chong remembered Bai Qi's instructions to him and Jiang Song. When the number of people on the city wall he was protecting reached 400, he decisively led a small team to kill a Yuanmeng catapult.
Murong Nong's face changed immediately after hearing the news, and he immediately shouted: "Stop him, he wants to destroy the catapult, no matter what, we must rent him."
Following Murong Nong's order, Yuan and Meng soldiers from all directions surrounded and killed Gao Chong, but there was no way they could stop him.
Although the number of soldiers around Gao Chong was getting smaller and smaller, and in the end he was the only one left, Gao Chong still moved forward to kill the catapult.
When Gao Chong arrived there, that section of the city wall was in a mess, which also gave the siege army below the city a chance to climb up.
So, even if all the soldiers who followed Gao Chong were dead, there were still many soldiers who boarded the city on the way, and they all subconsciously gathered around him to fight.
Gao Chong, who had worked hard to fight a **** path, hit the catapult in front with all his strength, and the wooden simple catapult shattered into pieces.
There are twenty-nine catapults like this at Zhenbei Pass, and Gao Chong’s task is to destroy all these catapults before the enemy general’s location can be determined.
After destroying a catapult, Gao Chong continued to kill the next one without making any pause.
This is destined to be a road paved with blood, and one or more people will die at every step Gao Chong takes.
On the other side, after the Han army launched an attack on the city, Zhuge Liang's army on the north side of Beiguan was also suppressed by loud shouts of killing.
“Military advisor, Governor Bai Qi is here, should we attack the city immediately?” Huang Zhong asked excitedly.
Zhuge Liang was observing the movement of personnel on the northern city wall, and listening to the infrequent shouts of killing coming from the south, he smiled lightly and said: "No hurry, we'll wait.
Now the Grand Governor should be personally directing the siege. Our army's offensive in the south is very fierce, forcing Murong Nong to mobilize the troops on the north wall. After he has mobilized some troops, we will take action, and it will definitely have a miraculous effect. " "good idea. ” All the generals nodded in agreement.
In the next two hours, nearly 3,000 soldiers were transferred to Nancheng one after another, and in the next half hour, there was no more troop transfer.
Zhuge Liang guessed that Murong Nong should have stabilized the situation, so there was no need to mobilize troops from the northern city wall, so he immediately ordered: "The whole army attacks."
The Han army that attacked Zhenbeiguan had very simple siege equipment, only crossbow formations and ladders, but Zhuge Liang commanded the siege. Yuwen Chengdu, Huang Zhong, Luo Cheng and other generals participated in the siege, plus Bei The number of Yuan and Mongolian soldiers on the city wall was reduced by half, so that the Han army attacked the city in the first round.
To the south, Jiang Song, who had been fighting in Jiang Song, had seen for so long that the North Route Army, which was responsible for containing the troops on the northern city wall, did not launch an attack. He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, thinking that Zhuge Liang's army encountered something unexpected on the road. And did not arrive as promised.
At this point in the year, Jiang Song's heart continued to sink. Without the Northern Route Army to attack him from both sides, with his 25,000 troops, even if he and Gao Chong personally participated in the siege, it would be impossible to forcefully break through Zhenbeiguan. It's almost impossible.
"I hope General Huo Bing can come over as soon as possible. At this point, I have no other way out. I can only try my best and resign myself to fate." Jiang Song sighed lightly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Song heard a loud killing cry from the north, and his face immediately showed a look of ecstasy.
"coming."
Jiang Song quickly climbed onto the high platform, raised his arms and shouted: "The reinforcements have arrived. Now our troops are attacking from the north and south of Zhenbeiguan. Let's go all out to recapture Zhenbeiguan."
“Recapture Zhenbeiguan, recapture Zhenbeiguan…”
The soldiers roared angrily, their shouts were like thunder, and their morale was like a rainbow.
"kill…"
Jiang Song handed over the command to the deputy general, and then personally rushed forward to participate in the siege, and responded to each other with Gao Chong on the left and right.
In Zhenbeiguan, when Murong Nong saw that a large number of Han troops appeared in the north and many people had already attacked the city tower, he collapsed to the ground like soft mud and murmured bitterly: "It's over, Zhenbeiguan is over, Dayuan It’s over.”
Murong Nong never expected that the Han army would appear in the north. At this time, it was possible that the Han army would appear outside Zhenbeiguan and attack Zhenbeiguan on both sides with the Han army in the south. The only army that came out of Zhenbeiguan was the Han army. However, the information Murong Nong received was from the Han army. The army that had left the fortress had been forced into Mobei, but the fact appeared outside Zhenbei Gua.
Murong Nong didn't know how the general of the Han army who came out of the Han army managed to deceive Murong Ke and everyone in Longcheng, but he knew that the Han people were definitely playing a big game, and the target was the main Mongolian army worth more than 400,000 yuan in Hetao. .
“No wonder the Han army wanted to go out of the fortress. They slaughtered the people not to vent their anger, but to force the 100,000 cavalrymen who had Zhenbeiguan to return to the grassland. Otherwise, there would be no possibility of taking Zhenbeiguan.
Once Zhenbeiguan was lost, the connection between the more than 400,000 troops in Hetao and the grassland was cut off. The Han army had such a deep calculation! "Murong Nong also said to himself with a look of despair.
