- After repairing and fighting again, Lin Shihong felt that he had come up with a good idea.
Although sharpening the sword is enough to chop wood, Lin Shihong forgot that although his pause rearranged the formation, it also gave the city defenders a chance to breathe. The Sui army gradually grew and adapted to the war after experiencing cruel battle tests. The war machine of Huaining City has begun to become normal after the initial discomfort.
The war has developed from the initial attack war to a stalemate war and a war of attrition.
Compared with the Sui army, Lin Shihong lacked time.
After wasting almost a week, Lin Shihong finally decided to attack Huaining City again.
This time Lin Shihong chose the main direction of attack from Ximen.
Lin Shihong had faced the elite troops of the Sui Army one after another. He keenly discovered that these were the elites of the Sui Army. Otherwise, if the Sui Army really had more than tens of thousands of elites, it would have taken the initiative to attack instead of watching helplessly as he conquered Huaining. The city was surrounded and impenetrable.
As Lin Shihong expected, the defenders on the west wall were all soldiers from Tong'an County. They had little battle experience and their combat effectiveness was far inferior to Du Fuwei's troops.
There is no way to let Tong'an County soldiers garrison the west wall. A clever woman can't make a meal without rice. Huang Weilie only has so many troops, so he can only focus on key places. The rest will also have to be used by soldiers and generals.
However, it was Wang Xiongdan who was arranged by the Xicheng garrison. 强牺 baolaixsw.com 读牺
Du Fuwei, Kan Leng, and Wang Xiongdan are all fierce generals, but Du Fuwei prefers change, and Kan Leng prefers fierceness. Only Wang Xiongdan is both wise and fierce, with unparalleled agility and change, which no one can match. Throughout the late Sui Dynasty, he was regarded as the number one general in the Southern Kingdom.
In this wave of attacks, in order to break the city, Lin Shihong also used the personal guards around him, and he personally led the supervising team to supervise the battle from behind.
As soon as the battle started, it became intense.
The Chu army was like a wave, attacking the city head one after another, while the Sui army smashed down rolling logs and stones as if they were free of charge.
The entire war has entered the most brutal stage of ant siege.
Countless people were killed and injured, and the piles of corpses outside the city almost formed a wall. The golden juice and hot oil at the top of the city were like rain, and the entire outside of the city smelled of burning rot.
During the siege stage, the Chu army suffered heavy casualties.
At this stage of the war, it has become a battle of wills.
Lin Shihong also gritted his teeth at this time and threatened to be killed if he retreated.
The newly built chariots and manhole railings were pushed by the soldiers, and they moved forward desperately, letting arrows and stones fly from the top of the city. The charging car kept hitting the city wall, and the continuous attacks actually broke a large hole in one of the city walls.
The entire city of Huaining is not a fortified city. It has not experienced many military disasters over the years, so some of the city walls are in disrepair.
Reluctant repairs cannot make up for the problems of the city wall itself.
Seeing that there was a hole in the wall of Huaining City, Lin Shihong was overjoyed and immediately sent people to attack the gap.
In Lin Shihong's view, at this point in the war, he finally saw the light of day, and Huaining City was not far from being destroyed.
But the city guard Wang Xiongdan didn¡¯t think so.
In fact, Huang Weilie and others knew very well the condition of the city walls in Huaining City. The foundation was so poor that no one dared to say where there might be a problem. So Huang Weilie made preparations from the beginning and placed a wooden fence on the inside of the city wall to build a second temporary defense line.
The defensive effect of a wooden fence is certainly not as good as a city wall, but it can give the Sui army enough reaction time.
A large number of Chu troops rushed in from the gap, but what was in front of them was not a smooth road, but rows of heavy crossbows glowing with cold light.
Seeing that the city was broken, Wang Xiongdan ordered people to use the sword carts prepared in advance to block the gap, while the crossbowmen ambush behind the fence.
When the Chu army entered the city, the sword carts blocked the Chu army's advance on both sides, while the heavy crossbows kept firing at the Chu army in front of them.
At this time, Huang Weilie also led the rescue team to arrive.
Seeing the Chu army entering the city, Huang Weilie ordered the advancing spear team to come forward and stab the Chu army randomly through the sword carts and fences.
At this time, the entire front of the gap was more tightly defended than a wall. The Chu troops who entered the gap were either shot to death by heavy crossbows or stabbed to death by spears.
The Sui army's defense caused a great psychological shock to the Chu army soldiers, and these people did not dare to attack for a while.
Of course, both Huang Weilie and Wang Xiongdan knew that this was only temporary.
Taking advantage of the break in the attack, Wang XiongdanImmediately take people to repair the damaged city wall.
Huang Weilie had some houses demolished before, and the dismantled wood and stones were placed at various city gates. They were used not only as rolling wood and stones, but also as raw materials for repairing the city walls. There was even a lot of soil prepared.
Huang Weilie led his elite troops to redeploy the defenses, and Wang Xiongdan commanded the troops of Tong'an County to build the wall.
These soldiers from Tong'an County may not be very good at fighting, but their skills in building walls are quite good. The main reason is that Huaining is close to the Dabie Mountains, and there is a plain to the north. Due to the convenient access of Wanshui River, the stones supplied to all parts of Huainan are mostly from Huaining. There are many stonemasons in Huaining. They have a good foundation in playing with stones. How can they be poor in craftsmanship when building walls.
Not long after, the Chu army came back and competed with the Sui army for the damaged city walls and fences.
For Lin Shihong, attacking here is the most likely opportunity to win, and of course he will not give up.
So a large number of Chu troops came towards the gap. Although the Sui army used the terrain to create a large massacre space, it was much easier to attack forward than to climb the city wall.
Although the Chu army suffered heavy casualties, their numbers were staggering. The Sui army repelled the Chu army's attacks one after another, but the Chu army seemed endless and could not be killed.
Facing the Chu army, the Sui army gradually became exhausted.
At this time, Ximen Junyi and Kan Leng respectively led their troops to come to support. Huang Weilie also made a desperate move and pressed all the troops to the west gate.
At this time, the morale of the Sui army was greatly boosted, and they fought to the death with the Chu army.
Huang Weilie considered that no matter how he fought, damage to the city wall would always be a big problem. So he actually ordered to defeat the enemy and repair the city wall at the same time.
The two sides fought on the ruins, and every inch of land they regained was used to repair an inch of the city wall.
You can hardly imagine the courage of the three armies to fight to the death.
Seeing that the Chu army was being forced out of Huaining City little by little, Lin Shihong even wanted to step forward with his sword. This is the best opportunity for a breakthrough. If it fails, people are afraid that it will be defeated.
The three armies must be defeated and the city must be destroyed. At this time ba ol a i xsw.com* Zhang Si
The commanders of both sides have made extreme determination.
This fierce battle lasted from morning to night, but neither Huang Weilie nor Lin Shihong had any intention of stopping. Even in order to boost morale, Huang Weilie and Lin Shihong personally led the charge.
By the end of the fight, the Sui army had lost countless generals.
Until both parties are exhausted and can no longer hold on.
At this time, Wang Xiongdan was attacking the enemy while leading soldiers to repair the city wall. Almost miraculously, the destroyed city walls were repaired overnight.
Although he is crooked and ugly, he is just a wall.
Lin Shihong stood under the city, looking at the wall and sighing. He didn't understand. It was just a small city, why was it so difficult to defeat? Zhida z.com Zhixiao
