The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 348 Battle of Mingshui (3)

The generals were taken aback when they heard this, can they still fight?But everyone knows that at this time, whoever persuades the head will have to move his head, and he will be killed by the general before he goes out. It is better to die on the battlefield.Therefore, none of the soldiers under his command dared to say a word, and they all went all out with the help of alcohol.

Liu Heitai asked generals Liu Shishan and Zhang Junli to lead [-] troops to ambush halfway, and prepared traps such as archers, horse traps, and tripping ropes to capture and kill Luo Shixin.Only then did the generals know that Liu Heitai was not drunk, but was using a trick to lure the enemy, so they were relieved.

In this way, Liu Heita, smelling of alcohol, pulled 8 horses to the city of Mingzhou again, and ordered the soldiers to fight against the enemy.At this time, it was only two hours before he was defeated.

Wei Zheng and Luo Shixin did not expect that Liu Heitai would come to scold again so soon, and Luo Shixin wanted to ask for orders to fight again. This time Wei Zheng resolutely refused: "General Luo, Liu Heitai must have a trick when he comes this time, don't pay attention to him. We just need to defend the city." Luo Shixin didn't dare to speak anymore.

As a result, Liu Heizhen scolded outside the city for a long time, and the soldiers who scolded Zhan changed several batches, their voices became hoarse, and there was still no movement in the city.

"Damn it, want to be a coward? It's not that cheap!" Liu Heita cursed and ordered people to bring all the wine and gambling equipment, and then, on the edge of the moat, Liu Heita took the lead, and all the soldiers abandoned With swords and guns, they got off their horses and sat on the ground, in groups of three, and in groups of five, drinking and eating meat with all the soldiers, and gambled recklessly.

The defenders of the city could see clearly, pointing and laughing at the people below, and someone reported it to Wei Zheng and Luo Shixin.

The two of them went up to the top of the city with their guards and saw, oh, the city is really lively, this group, that group, sitting together, some drinking, drinking orders, some gambling, quarreling loudly.The two saw Liu Heitai at a glance. At this time, Liu Heitai took off his big shirtless arms, holding a wine jar in his arms, smoking a mouthful of wine, eating a mouthful of meat, and making a bet next time. Shouting, shouting and laughing, all of a sudden, the city of Mingzhou turned into an open-air casino and tavern, which was extremely lively.

Luo Shi lost his confidence, and asked for orders to fight again. Wei Zheng turned his face down and didn't look at him, and all the generals in his opponent shouted: "Pass my order, all soldiers will stick to the city and wait in full force, and you are not allowed to fight! If you slack off, you may not fight again!" Those who are killed will not be spared!"

This time, including Luo Shixin, no one dared to talk nonsense anymore, so they stood on the top of the wall and watched them tossing around below.Seeing that Luo Shixin was so angry, Wei Zheng made a note of him, found a piece of cloth to cover his eyes, and plugged his ears with cotton balls, so that he could see nothing but see nothing, and hear nothing but trouble. Many soldiers followed suit.

After more than an hour, Liu Heitai finally lost his patience, and ordered: "Take Liu Shishan and Zhang Junli and get ready to attack the city with all your strength in half an hour!"

All the soldiers hurriedly collected their gambling equipment, wine and meat, and flew onto their horses with knives and guns. In a short time, 10 horses and horses were assembled, and siege weapons such as ladders, stone cannons, and ramming vehicles were also ready.Liu Shishan, Zhang Junli and other generals all stood in front of Liu Heita.

Liu Heikai was still shirtless, holding the wine jar in his hands and admonishing the generals: "Listen, all of you, if we capture Mingzhou, we will eat, drink and gamble together. But if we can't win the city, including this general, It’s like this altar!” After speaking, he slapped the wine jar in his hand and smashed it to pieces.

The soldiers of the three armies agreed in unison, and the morale was overwhelming.Liu Heikai knew that this kind of gangster and buddy-like army with a three-point alcohol smell was the most effective. As early as in the battle with Yuhuaji in Shandong, he was invincible and tried repeatedly. Today he once again took out This trick.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Liu Heita gave an order, and 10 people rushed across the moat like mountains and seas, and flocked to Mingzhou City.

As soon as they rushed to the bottom of the city, the soldiers under the command of Luo Shixin and Wei Zheng on the top of the wall rose up and fought back. Bows and arrows, rolling logs and stones rained down on Liu Heita's soldiers.In the blink of an eye, dead bodies were everywhere, and the city walls were stained with blood.

But Liu Heitai's men and horses are not afraid of death, each of them is as brave as chicken blood. They ignore the death of their comrades-in-arms, and one after another, the corpses piled up under the city, but there are still countless people who died on the way to the city. The soldier rushed up desperately along the ladder.

Half an hour later, outside the east gate and south gate of Mingzhou, Liu Heita's soldiers and horses had already attacked under the wall. Under the cover of crossbowmen, thousands of people pushed the ramming carts, hitting the heavy wall one after another. The gate of the city, every time it hits, it makes a muffled sound like rolling thunder.

Behind the crashing car was the shirtless Liu Heikai holding the Eight Snake Spear in his hand, and generals Liu Shishan, Zhang Junli and other generals personally supervised the battle. There were tens of thousands of horses behind them who were ready to charge the city. The door was knocked open, followed by Liu Heita and others to rush in.

At this time, many of Liu Heitai's dead men who ascended the city had already killed them on the top of the city, and fought with the soldiers of Wei Zheng and Luo Shixin on the top of the city.

Wei Zheng and Luo Shixin saw that there were no weak soldiers under the strong generals, and the soldiers under Liu Heita had the same virtue as Liu Heita, and they were all so fierce?It's okay, if it continues like this, won't the city be destroyed in a while?Even with all his might, he had to defend Mingzhou, otherwise he would not be able to explain to the prince.

Therefore, the two also went all out, defending the city and fighting together with the soldiers, and with the help of the two chief generals, a tug-of-war started on the top of the city.Liu Heita's dead men who ascended the city rushed to the top of the city, but were knocked down by the leaders of Wei Zheng and Luo Shixin, and rushed up again, and were knocked down again.Repeatedly like this, the number of casualties on both sides rose geometrically, the city wall seemed to have been washed with blood, and the corpses below the city almost filled the city wall.

After it got dark, I couldn't see clearly, but the fierce fighting did not stop because of the dark. The soldiers on both sides lit torches and continued to fight. In this way, the fierce fighting continued until the watch time.

Seeing that Mingzhou City was about to be destroyed, a small school ran up to Liu Heita's horse, knelt down on the ground, and reported out of breath: "Report...report, report when General Liu learns , Big... The big thing is not good, the prince was defeated by Yang Yong and retreated to Mingshui, Yang Yong commanded 10,000+ troops and the city has been trapped, and the small city of Mingshui is in danger..."

"What? The prince's army of 40 to 20 was defeated by Yang Yong's [-] soldiers? How is this possible?" The few words of reporting the incident to the horse were like a bolt from the blue, and Liu Heitai couldn't believe it was true. The Zhangba Snake Spear in his hand was pointed at the reporter's throat, and he shouted, "Say it again?"

The little schoolboy was so frightened that he almost wet his pants, and repeated it twice tremblingly. Liu Heita heard that the words were correct, so he put away the big gun and ordered: "Withdraw!"

Liu Heitai's army retreated like a tide, and when they reached a safe zone, Liu Heitai ordered people to check the number of people. During the two-hour battle, more than half of the 10 men and horses were lost, leaving only more than 4 people.

Liu Heizai didn't care too much, and brought these 4 horses and horses day and night, killing and rushing to Mingshui...
