Chapter 1595 Arrangement with Back Against the Water

"Rumble, rumble, rumble!" Accompanied by the sound of horse hooves, Zu Dashou and his subordinate Jiangyi camp roared over and reached the Houjin siege equipment.

"Fire arrows!" Zu Dashou gave the order, and arrows rained down immediately. At that time, countless men who were assisting in the siege were hit by arrows and fell down.

When Zu Dashou and his men dispersed the soldiers and drove away the young men, they took oil and prepared to burn the equipment.

Wakda, who was fighting fiercely on the city, saw the situation and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Taking the ladder out of the house is the twenty-eighth strategy in "Thirty-Six Strategies".

The original intention is to lure people to the roof and then take away the ladder. The metaphor is to first lure people forward with small profits and then cut off their return.

However, for Daishan's fourth son Wakda, this moment was actually like being "taken out of the house".

"Quick, get out!" Wakda ordered in panic.

If this "ladder" was really burned by Zu Dashou, the hundreds of people who stormed the city wall would be responsible for this.

At the same time, the "dead soldiers" preparing to attack the city also gathered under the siege equipment such as ladders, pit rails, and rams, trying to defend the siege equipment.

"Burn!" Zu Dashou was not interested in these "iron turtles" at all and ordered directly.

Following his order, the cavalrymen from the Yiying Road immediately ignited rockets, oil cans and other igniting objects, and then threw them at the siege equipment.

"Bang, bang, bang!" With a series of crisp and shattering sounds, the earthen jar smashed on the siege equipment broke, and a unique fragrance of vegetable oil filled the air.

However, before the defending "dead soldiers" could salivate, they heard a burst of rockets flying over.

"Seize, seize, seize!" The rocket with the ignition substance was nailed to the wood, instantly igniting the oil attached to it.

"It's on fire, it's on fire!" The soldiers who were still on the siege equipment were frightened to death.

Some of them reacted quickly and jumped down from above immediately.

The one who reacted slowly quickly turned into a burning man, fell down, and rolled all over the ground.

And just as the city was in chaos, Huang Degong on the city had already shouted: "Reinforcements have arrived, follow me to defeat the enemy!"

"Destroy the enemy?" Li Yangeng looked in disbelief.

Just now, Liaoyang City was in danger and almost fell, but now it has reversed?

"This is not waterway reinforcements, this is the arrival of the main force!" Huang Degong couldn't help but yelled when he heard this, as if he wanted to shout out all his unhappiness.

Depressed, really depressing.

Relying only on his own battalion, the help of God's troops, and the servants of the powerful families in the city, they had been struggling for five or six days. It was time to get back the interest.

"General, look!" Just as Huang Degong launched a fierce attack, a soldier suddenly pointed to the southwest.

"Oh? Reinforcements!" Huang Degong looked in the direction and saw a large group of people coming from the direction of Shoushan.

The first battalion was an armored cavalry.

This cavalry did not march very fast, but moved forward slowly and forcefully.

Followed closely by the infantry all over the mountains and plains, these infantry were deployed in battalion units, stabbing steadily like a broad sword.

There is a large flag with a large Chinese character "Shuai" hanging on it, and next to the flag with the Chinese character "Shuai", there is a smaller flag with a slightly smaller Chinese character "Zhang" written on it.

For a moment, Huang Degong seemed to see the shadow of Zhang Shun in a trance.

However, Huang Degong soon realized that this picture was not that picture, and this handsome man was not that handsome man, but they were all equally reassuring.

"Boring, boring, boring!" Just when Huang Degong was immersed in the glory of the former "King Shun", a harsh golden sound sounded.

"Who is it? Who is calling the gold!" Seeing victory in sight, someone actually made trouble, Huang Degong couldn't help but became furious.

"It's the Tatars!" Hearing the words, Zuo Zuo couldn't help but point his hand.

"Retreat, retreat quickly!" Huang Degong heard the words and looked around, only to see Nawakta looking like he was crazy, banging a gong desperately.

It turned out that Wakda and a group of "dead soldiers" did not carry flags in order to facilitate the attack on the city.

When they discovered the rebel reinforcements, they were unable to communicate with the people in the city and could only rely on the gong used to remind them when they retreated.

"What's going on with Wakda? Why are you so timid when you encounter a slight setback?" Nadai Shanzheng was so troubled by the harassment by Zu Dashou and others. He never expected that his son Wakda in the city would cause trouble for him.

"My fourth brother must be timid. Why don't we let him come down?" Mazhan heard this and quickly applied eye medicine to him.

"Nonsense, how could Wakda be so timid?" Daishan scolded him immediately after hearing this, "There must be something unexpected happening in the city!"

"Scouts? Where are the scouts? Is there any news about the scouts that the king has arranged to be stationed in the west?" Suddenly an idea flashed, and Daishan suddenly asked.

"Uh." After Daishan's reminder, Ma Zhan seemed to realize that no information had been received for a long time.

"My child, my child, go and ask now!" Mazhan couldn't help but replied quickly, turned around and was about to go.

"No need, send the order to the whole army to change into a defensive formation to prevent the 'shun thieves' from attacking from the west." However, Daishan had just finished giving the order when he saw a group of cavalry appearing like a city wall in Houjin. Southwest of the Grand Formation.

"Quick, quick, form an array with your back to the river!" Dai Shan couldn't help but be frightened when he saw this, and ordered quickly.

We mentioned before that the Taizi River turns south in the Liaoyang City section, forming a short north-south river channel, and Liaoyang City and Tokyo City are separated by this section of the river.

Therefore, Daishan had to cross the Taizi River first, and then attack Liaoyang City from east to west.

This means that the main force of Daishan is located. To the north and east is the Taizi River, to the west is Liaoyang City, and only to the south is a relatively open passage.

Now the rebels are coming from the southwest. If Daishan retreats rashly and causes the entire formation to collapse, as long as the passage to the south is blocked, all the more than 10,000 troops under his command will probably be annihilated here.

Therefore, Lao Daishan made a prompt decision and made the entire formation shrink towards the camp by the river.

In fact, Daishan also has a reputation for this skill. This formation is clearly a variant of Liu Yu's famous Queyue Formation.

"Kill!" Just as the Houjin camp was waving the flag crazily and ordering the entire army to shrink back, Yang Chengzu also came to the southwest side of the Houjin formation.

The first thing that came into view was a battlefield with loud killing sounds and a sea of ​​people.

If he were an ordinary general, he would definitely be confused when he saw this.

But Yang Chengzu was different. He was Luo Rucai's cavalry commander in "Cao Camp" and Zhang Shun's cavalry commander in "Shun Camp".

He had been leading cavalry, and he was leading shock cavalry.

The Shock Trooper is a sharp knife and a sharp edge.

Sharp yet fragile.

If used well, it is like a knife cutting through butter; if used incorrectly, the edge may break.

And Yang Chengzu was a swordsman with superb swordsmanship. He knew very well where to start with his sword.

After a cursory glance at the battlefield, Yang Chengzu quickly discovered the flaw in Houjin's formation.

It turned out that in order to better attack the city and prepare for the counterattack of the rebels in the city, Daishan divided the formation into four parts.

From west to east, there is a siege department closest to the Liaoyang city wall, an artillery department that bombards the rebel city wall, a main force department that holds down the formation, and a camp near the river bank.

Among these four parts, the weakest defense was the artillery section used to bombard the rebel walls.

As long as we can capture the artillery department, we can cut Houjin in two.

One section is Wakda's siege department, and the remaining section is Houjin's main force.

This time Daishan only brought more than 10,000 troops, while the Wakda troops who attacked the city numbered 3,000.

There are three thousand pieces of weak water, but I only take one ladle to drink.

As long as he could win three thousand in one go, Yang Chengzu would be satisfied.

"The whole battalion listens to my order and seizes the Tatar artillery position!" Yang Chengzu couldn't help but pointed his spear at the artillery position where the siege department and the main force department were combined.

"Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!" The cavalry couldn't help shouting after hearing this, and then they slowly pressed towards Jin Hongyi's cannon with neat steps.
