Chapter 242 The Last Roar 2
When the Huns Han State launched its final attack on Luoyang, Beigong Jing was left with only 7,000 Liangzhou infantry, 500 Liangzhou iron cavalry, and 1,100 tiger cavalry. Such troops seemed so thin in front of nearly 200,000 tiger and wolf troops in the Huns Han State, and were desperate.
What is even more desperate is that this is already the most powerful force on the battlefield in Luoyang. Apart from this force, there is only a thousand Changshui Army, with a number of more than 1,000 Yue cavalry, a 4,000 sprint sound led by Xiao Yu, a group of 10,000 people armed by Luoyang citizens and a small number of palace guards. The Western Jin Dynasty, with a population of more than 30 million and a territory of thousands of miles, was left at its last moment, and this was the only thing left for those who were willing to protect it.
Hu Yanyan happened to hit Luoyang's weakest defense direction: the one guarding Luobei was the miscellaneous brand composed of Luoyang citizens.
The most elite imperial guards of the Huns and Han Kingdom faced such a group of miscellaneous fish, and the result was imagined. The Jin army first tried to stop the Huns' army from crossing the river. After failure, they mobilized more troops to attack them halfway, but they still failed. Then, under Pei Xian's command, they concentrated all their strength to launch a counterattack on the Heyin floating bridge, trying to burn the floating bridge. They had a good idea and fought bravely, but they had no use. Hu Yanyan personally led a thousand iron-armored heavy cavalry to attack the Jin army's formation, and rushed this miscellaneous army that lacked training without any effort. Yang Jun led the Yue cavalry to reinforce, but also failed to curb Hu Yanyan's offensive. He was defeated and was beaten several arrows, so he had to lead the remaining defeated generals to escape into Luoyang City. After this battle, the ten thousand miscellaneous soldiers were basically lost, and even the Yue cavalry had only about 800 people left, which was considered to have been broken.
Hu Yanyan took advantage of the situation to pursue, rushed all the way to the outside of Pingchang Gate, and then launched an attack on Pingchang Gate.
The entire Luoyang was shrouded in the terrifying atmosphere of the doomsday. Luoyang people can no longer remember how many times this was Luoyang's enemy's troops. During the Eight Kings Rebellion, the entire Luoyang was like a bus, and anyone could get on it. He beat Luoyang to pieces. He finally ended until the end of the Eight Kings Rebellion. He didn't even have time to take a breath. The Hu people came again! This was the fourth time Luoyang was besieged in just three years. The first three times were Yuan Yan's surrender and then attacked Liu Cong, and the other two were all relying on Beigong Chun to show his power, defeating Wang Mi, killing Hu Yanhao, and releasing Luoyang to the upside down.
This time, there will be no more Yuan Yan, nor will there be Beigong Chun.
Fortunately, they also have Beigong Jing.
Before Hu Yanyan reached the Pingchang Gate, Beigong Jing divided the troops into three. Zhang Xiong led 2,000 soldiers and 500 cavalry to defend Xin'an, facing the fierce army of Liu Jing, and led 3,000 infantry and 800 tiger cavalry to defend Yiyang, and met Liu Yao. At the same time, 1,300 infantry left to stay in the new city to protect the Yishui route, and stared at Yingyang, ready to support Li Lie at any time, so as not to escape from the mountainous area and cut off the Chen artery in one fell swoop. Although this artery was unlikely to deliver enough blood to Luoyang at this time, Nanyang is now very poor.
It is also good to keep this path, at least a glimmer of hope can be preserved.
Xin'an and Yiyang were at the same time to catch the enemy, and encountered a fierce attack from the main force of the Huns and Han army. The attack in Yiyang was particularly fierce. Liu Yao commanded the army to surround Yiyang on three sides, set up hundreds of stone casters and hundreds of crossbows, and bombarded the Yiyang city wall. These were the weapons they seized from the Jin army, and now they were all used on the Jin army. He also mobilized 12,000 crossbowmen to vent the arrow rain as the Jin army guarded the city. The civilians worked hard to transport hundreds of thousands of sharp arrows, and he squandered them all in one afternoon. In just one day, the walls of Yiyang City were cut into scars and holes, and the walls were covered with sharp arrows, so that even the sharp arrows shot later could not be implemented.
Beigong Jing commanded the Liangzhou army to respond calmly. The Hun army rushed over like a wave. He commanded the Liangzhou army to fight back with powerful crossbows. The firepower of the Liangzhou army was not as strong as the Xiongnu army, but the crossbow arrows shot out were very powerful. The Hun army drove the captured civilians to push the simple shield chariot and carry earth bags to fill the trenches. The crossbow arrows poured from the Liangzhou army directly shot the shield chariot and nailed the civilians who filled the trenches with earth behind the shield chariot to the ground. The civilians who were not caught in the arrow looked numb and pushed the dead and the earth bags into the trenches together... And when they fell to the ground, the people behind would push them into the trenches without hesitation...
Relying on the flesh and blood of more than 2,000 civilians and the inexhaustible earth bags, the Hun army filled three trenches in just one day, and used a catapult to build the earth trough outside the city. The fence was smashed into pieces, and then attacked the earth trough and fence. The Jin army hid in the earth trough and the fence was revered with strong bows and crossbows. During the fierce battle, Liu Yao was surprised to find that the crossbows of the Jin army were shot surprisingly accurately, and many
The Hun soldiers were all shot into the throat by an arrow and died on the spot. When they stabbed the Jin army's spear through the fence, the Jin army on the city wall was not idle. They used stone crossbows, bed crossbows and catapults to fire violently at them. Especially the turbulent oil tanks fired by the stone crossbows, which were extremely lethal. Often, a turbulent oil tank was smashed down, and a large area of the Hun soldiers turned into firemen. The shrill howling sounded across the battlefield, making people shrill.
The trencher threw the half-melted copper balls at the Huns army. This thing had the best visual effect at night. With a loud bang, a large number of red-black copper balls were thrown into the sky, and then roared and fell. Those who were hit on the vital point would hang up on the spot. Those who didn't hit the vital point would also break the tendons and bones, scorched skin and rotten, and they were in pain. When the Huns army pushed the outer copper leaves and the toad cart that could not be shot through the arrows hit the wall and began to poach the wall, Beigong Jing made people drift the red iron and the head of the toad cart from a high place. The Hun soldiers in the toad cart immediately melted together with the toad cart...
Seeing that the army was blocked by the siege, Liu Yao was angry and wanted to climb the city to fight in person. He was grabbed by his personal soldiers and threw down his weapons. He ran to the Jin army's strong crossbow range to pick up a giant hammer and beat the giant drum. The drum sound was rumbling and shocked the earth. The Xiongnu soldiers were all excited. They either climbed up on a ladder or rushed out of the Lu Gong car to climb directly into the city, and launched an extremely cruel hand-to-hand battle with the Jin army. The two sides met in close combat. The sword light on the city wall was like snow, the sword shadows were like violent, the guns were slammed, and the axes were swung, and the battle lasted dozens of times a day. The corpses under the city wall piled up into hills, and blood gathered into small rivers and flowed wildly. The battle was so cruel that it was shocking.
Liu Yao commanded the army to attack for three days, and opened gaps on the Yiyang city wall several times, killing and injured more than 7,000 people, and it was still difficult to shake Yiyang City. This small Yiyang City seemed to be iron-clad, and no matter how he attacked, it would remain unmoved. Liu Yao was angry and admired, saying, "The Liangzhou soldiers are really fierce and tenacious, stronger than Sima Yue's imperial guards!"
Tiger Tooth General Li Jingnian said: "This time, the Liangzhou Army was trained by Beigong Chun himself. It has always been known for its bravery and strict discipline, and it is not easy to deal with."
Liu Yao said: "It's a pity that the entire Jin State is only one Liangzhou army. Even if they have the ability to dominate the sky, they cannot withstand the fierce attack of our tens of thousands of troops!"
While speaking, a powerful Hun general led more than a hundred soldiers out of the Lu Gong car and rushed to the city wall on the short fly bridge. The Liangzhou army threw dense javelins at them. Many soldiers were hit by the javelins and fell from the fly bridge with screams. But the powerful general rushed forward with a large shield. He did not let go of more than a dozen javelins inserted into the big shield. He threw away the big shield and pulled out an iron mace and swung it. The Liangzhou army's weapons touched him.
He was immediately knocked away, and then he was knocked down by a mace. At the very least, he vomited blood and at the worst, his brain burst. He rushed around the middle of the Jin army like a tiger. Wherever he went, the Jin army fell and fell, and in an instant, seven or eight people died under his mace. The soldiers following him were all excited and rushed and killed fiercely, and tore a big hole in the Jin army's defense line. The Jin army fought to the death, but this guy was too fierce and could not resist at all.
Liu Yao was overjoyed: "Whose general is this? He is such a fierce tiger!"
Li Jingnian said: "He is a young general under the last general. He has the power of nine oxen and two tigers. He can kill wild boars with bare hands. When facing the enemy, he wears two armored soldiers and leads hundreds of armored soldiers to fight repeatedly. He cannot be defeated. He will defeat all the attacks and break all the attacks. If he sends him to climb first, he will surely tear open the defense line of the Jin army and cut off the battle flag of the Jin army!"
Liu Yao laughed: "It's great, very good! Remember him to remember the merit of first passing by!"
As he spoke, the general rushed to the Jin army's military flag. Looking at the battle flag flying in the bloody storm, he grinned and swung his iron mace and smashed it down on the flagpole!
A cold light flashed!
The fierce general's iron mace turned a corner when it was hit halfway. With a clever snatch, he shot from behind with a sound of blocking it. He was about to hit his back and knocked the javelin that was about to hit him. He rushed to the body and saw a Jin army general wearing iron armor and holding a long sword uniting the sword, turning into a purple lightning to attack him.
He grinned: "Bei, Gong, Jing!" He ignored the long sword that pierced his throat like lightning, and waved the iron mace to hit Beigong Jing's head. Beigong Jing swung his body violently, avoiding the mace, and stabbed the general's vital points, both tricky and fierce. The general was not showing weakness, and the iron mace was swung to the wind. The two of them fought quickly and quickly. In a blink of an eye, they exchanged seven or eight moves, but there was no sound of weapons fighting.
Because the weapons of both sides did not touch even a single moment.
The Hun general wanted to fight head-on, and knocked Beigong Jing's sword away or knocked down, but Beigong Jing's sword was light and did not give him such a chance. Every mace he swung out, and only hit the air.
