Chapter 315 Defensive Battle at Leopard Jade Pass
Hua Kai was not surprised at all about the attacking method of the East Hu army. He had taken these into consideration when the Leopard Yuguan wall was built. Now it depends on how the White Tiger Legion performs.
When Donghu Army approached the Leopard Yuguan city wall for 2 kilometers, the Leopard Yuguan city gate opened wide. Azure Dragon Corps and Azure Dragon Reserve Corps left the customs in rows. They have been rested for a few days. Human karma is too heavy, and he failed to follow the legion out of the city this time.
Seeing that more than 7,000 people from Azure Dragon Corps and Reserve Corps came out of Leopard Jade Pass, Donghu Army did not dare to stop them at will. They were okay to defend against Azure Dragon Corps. If an offensive pursuit formation was organized, Azure Dragon Corps could break through any of their attack formations. Strength, so they can only send three thousand elite cavalry behind the infantry.
Hua Zichen took the Azure Dragon Legion and the Reserve Regiment out of the barrier, came behind the Donghu Army and did not attack. It seemed that he was just watching the other side perform.
However, the Donghu army did not dare to be careless. They let more than 30,000 elite cavalry as close as possible to the infantry formation, while organizing the attack on Leopard Yuguan, while preparing to resist the attack of the Azure Dragon Legion.
Although the Azure Dragon Legion is powerful, the number of people is still a small number. The Donghu country has dominated the grassland Donghu for thousands of years. The national culture and fighting will are not weak. It will not be easily taken away by the Azure Dragon Legion, as long as they can break the leopard jade. Guan, the entire Gaoliu County will open the door for them. What if these light cavalry are more powerful?
Many middle-level generals in the East Hu Army thought this way. What they expect now is that their slave soldiers can break through the Leopard Jade Pass. If they were before, not to mention a hundred thousand troops, five thousand men and horses would be able to open the gate of the Central Plains at will. , But seeing today's Leopard Yuguan, they actually lost their confidence.
Driven by the Donghu soldiers, the Donghu slaves carried their siege equipment step by step towards Baoyuguan. When they were close to 100 meters away, countless arrows shot down from the arrow tower on the wall, and the Donghu slaves kept falling down. .
But this could not stop the advance of the East Hu army. Some slave soldiers walked a little bit late, and there were soldiers' whips next to them. If they were not obedient, soldiers would directly meet them with swords and guns. Donghu’s treatment of slaves in the grassland is the cruelest. .
Hua Kai saw those slaves who all had the face of the Central Plains, his eyes stepped towards the wall with no ambition, some were shot halfway through the poor luck, some were injured and just fell to the ground, and were directly killed by the Donghu soldiers on the side. Fall, they don't want the injured slave to affect their progress.
Seeing those Donghu soldiers killing slaves was as simple as killing a sheep, Hua Kai felt a burst of anger spontaneously. These slaves were originally the people of the Central Plains! Now they can only be at the mercy of the Donghu in order to survive.
Donghu slave soldiers are to survive, so why not everyone in Baoyuguan? If they are soft-hearted towards these slave soldiers, they would be cruel to their own and cruel to the entire Gaoliu County and even Yan, Qi, Dai, Zhao and other Central Plains countries.
When the Donghu slave soldiers finally came to Baoyuguan, hundreds of them rushed towards the city gate with a huge assault cart. There were countless boulders falling from the top of the 10-meter-high city gate on Baoyuguan, and a large number of slave soldiers and Donghu soldiers were They were killed. When they were only 5 meters away from the city wall, hundreds of people were killed or injured more than 70%. They were surrounded by stones, and countless bows and arrows shot at them on the wall. Donghu army began to brave the arrow rain and the city wall. Go to the boulder on the top to clean up the stone blocking the road ahead.
However, Leopard Yu closed the stone and seemed to be able to throw it no matter what. The Donghu slave soldiers had been killed and injured thousands of them in less than half an hour. At this time, the catapult in the distance began to show off.
The stone slings in the distance flew to the Leopard Jade Pass like ordinary artillery shells. Many of them hit the wall and fell under the corner of the wall. Occasionally, some hit the walls and inside of the pass, smashing many houses.
The deterrent effect of the catapult is far greater than the actual effect. As long as it does not directly hit a person, it is basically not a threat to the aerodynamic environment. Hua Kai saw the captains of the White Tiger Corps commanding the battle on the wall, while telling the soldiers how to deal with catapult attacks. They are all professional city defenders. These common catapult response methods have long been memorized, although they are only It's the first time I saw it!
Countless slaves began to rush towards the Leopard Yuguan wall with a ladder. The Donghu army slings still did not stop. Leopard Yuguan several soldiers from the White Tiger Corps used long poles to push out the ladder on the Leopard Yuguan wall, some of which were only halfway up. The slave soldiers can only choose to jump the ladder.
Hua Kai stood motionless on the wall, a stone with a big head flew from a distance, and the landing point was exactly where he was. Hua Kai held the [Gentian Gun] and stabbed the flying stone, and the stone touched [Dragon] Bile Spear] The tip of the spear turns into powder, and ordinary stones cannot withstand Xiantian-level True Qi.
There were shouts and killings outside the barrier wall. Facing the flying stones, the captains of the White Tiger Corps above the aerodynamic stage were busy picking up the stones. The soldiers lowered their heads on the barrier wall to fight the enemy who was climbing the ladder. .
The slave soldiers of Baoyuguan were also very busy. They transported stones from the armament warehouse to the wall. There were wounded or dead soldiers, and they also took care of them in time. Therefore, although there are only 1,000 White Tiger Legion soldiers fighting on the wall, there are more than three times as many people assisting them.
The battle lasted for more than 4 hours. The Donghu army had not attacked the Leopard Jade Pass. They left more than 10,000 corpses and began to choose to retreat. The Leopard Jade Pass seemed to fight fiercely, but the loss was very small, with 3 people. The soldier was killed by a catapult, and nearly a hundred soldiers were injured, most of which were lightly wounded.
Compared with the White Tiger Corps, the loss of the slaves is still not small. More than a dozen of them were killed by catapults, and the number of injured exceeded 300. The main reason was that they had to go up and down the walls to carry supplies, and they were most likely to be broken by falling stones. The block sputtered.
Azure Dragon Corps and Reserve Corps have been outside the barrier until the end of the battle, and they didn't take any action. As long as they stood here, it was already very useful.
Seeing that all the East Hu cavalry returned to their own camp one by one, the Azure Dragon Legion and the Reserve Group no longer entangled with each other, and they returned to the Leopard Jade Pass together.
As soon as the Azure Dragon Corps left, Hua Kai saw the Donghu army split a hundred-man team towards the east side of Baoyuguan.
"Kay, will their team of Hundreds ask Donghu for help again? Do you want me to take someone to kill them?" Hua Zichen said when he saw the departure of the Hundreds of Donghu in the distance.
"You don't need it. It's already mid-October. Winter is coming in less than a month. If Donghu wants to expand the scale of the war, it must send most of the elite. Now they don't have that time.
Besides, look at the hundred soldiers, are they all full of kettles? They are running out of water, they are going to fetch water! "Hua Kai said as he looked at the Donghu Cavalry who was leaving in the distance.
The core area of Donghu Country is a thousand miles away from Baoyuguan. The biggest supply problem for each hunting southward is water.
Soldiers can eat jerky early, but people have to drink water along the way, and horses also drink water. The daily water consumption of 100,000 people is not a small amount.
There is a small river two miles east of Leopard Yuguan, presumably they went there to fetch water.
Looking back at Donghuyingzhai, Hua Kai couldn't help but an idea appeared in his mind when he looked at the sky.
In order to resist the raid by the Azure Dragon Army, the Donghu Army built the camp on a 500-acre low hill. All their tents are close together. If they use fire to attack, it is very easy for them to burn the camp, and The Leopard Jade Pass is on the south side of the Donghu Army Camp. This season, the wind usually blows from the north...
Huakai carefully checked the layout of the Xiadonghu army camp, and knew that there was a shortage of water in the Donghu army camp. This fire attack method could be tried.
Just do what he said, Huakai asked Azure Dragon Reserve Group to rob the Donghu water team, and he and Wushu began to discuss how to attack the Donghu army camp.
For three consecutive days, the Donghu army relied on the slave soldiers and the Baoyuguan guards to consume. It seemed that they wanted to consume all their arrows, rolling logs, and stones. However, Huakai prepared defensive materials at the Baoyuguan, even if the Donghu army attacked. Ten days and a half months, the Leopard Yuguan materials may not be exhausted.
In three days, the Donghu Army's water-fighting team was robbed and killed by the Azure Dragon Reserve Group many times. In order not to be led too far by the Azure Dragon Reserve Group, the elite cavalry did not dare to abandon the infantry and went too far, so this afternoon When the troops were closed, several Xiantian people from the East Hu army couldn't help but quarrel together.
The Leopard Jade Pass is no longer the old Leopard Jade Pass. The 10-meter-high wall is too difficult for them to climb. In three days of siege, more than 20,000 slave soldiers were sacrificed, but they did not even climb the top of the wall. Got it.
These slaves had only one role in the defense of the Leopard Jade Pass, which was to consume the opponent’s city defense materials. As a result, their arrows, rolling stones, and stones have not been reduced at all. Then, if you want to obtain a breakthrough, Let Donghu soldiers come by themselves.
It's almost the end of October, they can't afford it! The drinking water in the camp was almost running out these days. The elite cavalry of the enemy army looked at them. If they wanted to get the water, they might have to go to the river to be absolutely safe. They had all seen the strength of the elite cavalry of the enemy army.
Some Donghu generals felt that they should send their main force to attack the Baoyuguan wall tomorrow, as long as they can break through the checkpoint, all problems will be solved naturally.
Some people think that the camp should now be moved to the river. The Leopard Jade Pass is completely different from before. They need to get to know each other slowly and then look for suitable siege opportunities. After all, they still have about 80,000 soldiers. , There is no problem in taking down a Leopard Jade Pass that is only 500 meters wide.
Just as they were quarreling, a soldier suddenly ran in: "General, Leopard Yu closed the door and opened it, and the other elite cavalry has left again!"
