Chapter 564 The general is here!(1/2)
"Ahem cough cough..."
Zhang Ji became a bloody man, and his armor was covered with thirteen arrows, some of which were painted with poison.
Zhang Ji kept coughing, and his spear was stained with blood.
Thousands of Qin troops from Guanzhong were killed in battle, and some of the Xiliang personal soldiers who followed Zhang Ji were almost all killed in battle.
When Zhang Xiu led the reinforcements to come, Zhang Ji was already dying.
"I have never done anything good for my general Dong Zhuo in my life. Finally, I can serve the court once, even though I have no regrets..."
Zhang Ji's consciousness gradually blurred and he fell to the ground with a bang.
"From the Father!"
Zhang Xiu's eyes were red and he gritted his teeth. Crassus's Roman legion killed Zhang Ji!
He looked at the eagle flag of the Roman legion with his teeth clenched his lips, and blood flowed down the corners of his mouth, still unaware of it.
"kill!"
Zhang Xiu led Zhang Ji's old Xiliang troops to attack Crassu, the head coach of the Roman legion, and planned to kill Crassu and avenge his father Zhang Ji!
Zhang Ji was in a madness, and the spear was like a tiger in his hands, and Roman soldiers fell under his hands!
"Crazy, there are so many madmen in the East, archers are ready!"
Crasso waved his hand, and the Roman archer took out the arrow from the archer's bag and bent his bow to hit the arrow.
The Roman stone-treating soldiers took out the stones, and the spiraling stones were no weaker than bows and arrows.
Dense rain of arrows and stones covered Zhang Xiu and the old Xiliang family!
The spear in Zhang Xiu swept out, hitting arrows and stones, and his wrists were numb.
The old troops of the Western Liang army continued to fall, and a team of heavy Roman infantry intercepted Zhang Xiu, and the spear stabbed from all directions!
A spear stabbed Zhang Xiu's shoulder from behind. Zhang Xiu endured the pain and turned around and killed a Roman heavy infantry!
The defenders on the city wall pushed the stones down, and the heavy stones rolled down along the cloud ladder. The enemy troops who were attached to the cloud ladder screamed, and at least several enemy soldiers were killed by falling rocks.
Zhang He and Ju Yi used the halberd soldiers to climb the dead soldiers to defend the city wall first. Under the fierce offensive of the Mongolian army, there were heavy casualties.
The defenders of the city walls face not only the enemy troops attacking the city, but also the huge rocks and fireballs that fall from time to time.
Fire spread on the city walls, wolf smoke filled the city, and the defenders were burned by the flames from time to time.
Zhang He personally led his troops to defend the city. The burning fireball exploded beside Zhang He. The splashing flames burned Zhang He's shoulders. The halberd soldiers were defeated because of the injury of the chief general.
The Mongolian army took the opportunity to advance, and at least 300 people climbed the city wall, and Yumen Pass was in danger!
At this moment, Feng Yi personally commanded the troops to climb the city and counterattacked the Mongolian army that had climbed the city!
The running soldiers were elite soldiers recruited by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu in Hebei, and made great contributions to Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu's conquest of the world.
This group of running soldiers has the highest morale among the special legion of the Yumen Pass defenders. Under Feng Yi's command, they drove away the Mongolian army that had climbed the city and regained the city wall!
Feng Yi saw that the city wall was full of devastation, Zhang He was injured by Xiangyang artillery, and Ju Yi had less than 400 death soldiers left with 800 first-row deaths, and he couldn't help feeling a little tragic.
Yumen Pass has become a meat grinder, and even famous generals may be killed in battle.
The war between empires, millions of corpses were buried and thousands of miles of blood were bleeding.
The running soldiers were fighting with the Mongolian troops attacking Yumen Pass, and the number of casualties continued to rise.
Xiangyang cannons were still bombarding Yumen Pass. The destructive power of this giant siege weapon was no less than that of early artillery, which made the guards of Yumen Pass suffer.
"Next, our Xiliang Legion will be guarded, and Yang Shihou's silver spear effect can still be fought."
Xu Fengnian was covered in dust and was blackened by the choking wolf smoke from Yumen Pass. This wolf smoke also had a paralytic effect, resulting in the reduction of the combat power of the Yumen Pass defenders.
Xu Fengnian's general Yang Shihou was a famous general of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. His special troops were Silver Guns and Jiedu. He fought in turn with Feng Yi's rushing soldiers, and the rushing soldiers and the raptors were able to rest.
The cavalry of Wang Yanzhang, Ma Chao, Ma Teng, Han Sui, Li Hu and others is ready to go. If Yumen Pass is broken, they will lead the cavalry out of the pass, break through the Mongolian army and turn the tide.
Inside the pass are also the county soldiers of Xie Ai, the prefect of Wuwei County appointed by the Qianlong Lao Qin.
However, Xie Ai's county soldiers are not special troops, they are just ordinary troops, with the highest level of only three levels. As a reserve team, they can accumulate energy.
Xie Ai seemed not in a hurry and ordered the county soldiers in Wuwei County to rest and maintain morale and physical strength.
If it is not considered a special army, Xie Ai's Wuwei County soldiers are the most morale legion, and their morale and physical strength are maintained at their peak.
"The city walls and gaps in Yumen Pass can only accommodate tens of thousands of people to fight, and there is no need to rush forward."
Xie Ai patiently waited for the opportunity.
The battle at Yumen Pass became more and more tragic, with tens of thousands of soldiers killed on both sides, so the Mongolian army did not need a ladder and directly stepped on the bodies of their companions and climbed the wall!
The terrain of Yumen Pass is narrow, resulting in almost no place to pile up corpses!
The battle at the gap was also shocking. More than half of Crasso's Roman legion, including five thousand people, were killed or injured!
The vassal army driven by the Mongolian army went on one after another, attacking the fifth school of the Northern Army and the Sanhe Cavalry, and both sides tug of war at the gap.
Blood stained the battle robe of the veteran Huangfu Song red, and the wolf smoke made the elderly Huangfu Song cough continuously. He still persisted in commanding the fifth army of the Northern Army to block the gap in Yumen Pass.
"The will of the Yumen Pass guards is really strong. Xiangyang cannon almost flattened Yumen Pass, and more than 100,000 troops were invested to attack Yumen Pass in turn, but they still could not take this pass."
The siege of the Mongol Empire, Ali Hague, and Prime Minister Yelu Chucai, commanded the army to attack Yumen Pass from a high place, and found that the almost collapsed Yumen Pass was still resisting tenaciously.
"Just Yumen Pass is so difficult to attack. If you want to conquer the Han Empire, it may not be possible for decades."
Yelu Chucai had a very high opinion of the Han Empire.
Before the original bronze cannon came out, the Xiangyang cannon was already the most destructive large-scale siege equipment in the world of "Lords", and many powerful generals were depressed by the bombardment of the Xiangyang cannon.
However, Yumen Pass was continuously bombarded by Xiangyang cannons and was still defending, so the Mongolian army used fireballs and wolf smoke to turn Yumen Pass into ruins.
Originally, Ali Hague wanted to capture Yumen Pass, take it for itself, and then block the Han Empire's army to support the Western Regions Protectorate, but now it seems that it can only razed Yumen Pass to the ground and re-establish a pass.
So this time Ali Hague used fire attack.
A team of Mongolian soldiers appeared behind Ali Hague, and Ali Hague and Yelu Chucai subconsciously looked back.
A thick big hand pressed Ali Hague's shoulder, and the Mongol Empire Khan Temujin arrived in person!
"The Khan, the most general will attack Yumen Pass and ask for punishment."
When Ali Hague saw Temujin come back, he apologized to Temujin.
"Ben Khan's support for Hetao and Monan has all failed. If you are punished for failing to attack Yumen Pass, then who will punish Ben Khan?"
Temujin looked at the soon-to-be-fall Yumen Pass: "The plan to occupy Hetao and Monan has failed, and the Western Regions must be taken down. Since the Yumen Pass collapses, we will work together to break it."
Temujin, who had not gained benefits on other battlefields, returned to the Yumen Pass battlefield to provide legion bonuses for the vassal army that attacked the gap. Ali Hague enhanced the power of the siege equipment, resulting in a sudden increase in the pressure on the Yumen Pass defenders!
Although Temujin is not good at siege, he provides field bonuses to the Servant Army and the Mongolian Army. The Servant Army that attacked the gap in Yumen Pass was directly under the command of Temujin, and its combat power increased rapidly!
The Han army defending Yumen Pass felt the familiar sense of oppression, and sweat dripped on their foreheads.
The Khan of the Mongol Empire returned to the Yumen Pass battlefield again!
Xu Fengnian, Ma Teng, Han Sui, Wang Yanzhang, Ma Chao and others were all looking west of Yumen Pass. There was only one person in the Mongolian Empire who had this familiar sense of oppression, that is Temujin, who possessed the characteristics of "Genghis Khan"!
The pressure faced by the Yumen Pass Army increased, especially the Eastern Han army with a defensive gap. Famous generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun once again faced the pressure on Temujin!
The morale of the servants under Temujin's command was boosted and violently hit the gap. The casualties of the fifth Northern Army College increased significantly!
Temujin could consume the minion army without restraint, not treating the minion army as human beings, but treating them as consumables. However, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun felt distressed about the casualties of the Five Northern Army Clans.
The group of five Northern Army soldiers, Sanhe Cavalry, who followed them, some of them were veterans who participated in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but fell one after another - in order to defend Yumen Pass for the Empire.
Zhu Jun held a Han sword and slashed a Seljuk Turkic servant. An arrow shot his right chest, blocked by the heart protection mirror on his right chest, and almost seriously injured Zhu Jun.
Zhu Jun took a step back or two, stationed with the sword to stop his body, coughed violently, and the impact of the runaway arrow was obviously not good.
If this continues, the fifth army of the Northern Army and the Sanhe Cavalry may be wiped out.
More and more Mongolian troops climbing the city walls, Yang Shihou's silver spear performance was getting more and more casualties, and many silver spears were broken. Yang Shihou even personally took the gun to kill the commander who climbed the city!
Feng Yi led the energetic troops to replace Yin Gun Xiao Jiedu and fought against the enemy troops who climbed the city.
The two sides fought on the city wall, and the Mongolian army attacked the city fiercely, and corpses were everywhere on the city wall.
The rolling stones of the defenders have lost their effect because the enemy's corpses are almost as high as the city wall, and they can only tug-of-war with the enemy who are sieging the city wall.
"If this continues, Yumen Pass may be lost!"
Han Sui was hit by two arrows, but he still killed the enemy with arrows. The unprecedented battle has exceeded Han Sui's psychological endurance.
The Xiliang Legion has been stationed in Yumen Pass for a long time, and the consumption is extremely amazing.
"Our Wuwei County soldiers, it's time to come forward to support."
The white-clothed Zhi General Xie Ai was raising his energy and, when the Han army was in crisis, sent Wuwei County soldiers with full morale and physical strength to support the city wall!
Xie Ai's army entered the battlefield in time to stabilize the defense line. The Mongolian army retreated slightly, which made the Han army cheer up a little!
The cavalry of Wang Yanzhang, Li Hu, Ma Teng and others simply abandoned Ma and climbed the city to assist the defenders on the city wall in defense.
boom!
The Mongolian army used a collision car and a huge wooden hammer bombarded the city gate of the city city, and the city gate was about to be shattered!
