Chapter 69 Game 2 opener

Kunyang, present-day Yexian County, Henan Province, where the famous idiom "Ye Gong loves dragons" originated. The city is two feet high, five miles long from north to south, three miles wide from east to west, and the moat is about seven feet wide. It was not a big city at that time.On May 20, 23 A.D., that is, the second day after Liu Xiu led the twelve cavalry to break through, Wang Feng and Wang Chang, who stayed behind in Kunyang, climbed up the tower early in the morning. When they looked forward, they suddenly wanted to cry. I saw hundreds of battalions of officers and soldiers at the foot of Kunyang City, with flags covering the fields, dust in the sky, and the dark camp seemed to have no end, spreading all the way to the end of the world, leading to the end of eternity.The small Kunyang is like a flat boat at the moment, placed in the rough ocean, surrounded by many, and it is difficult to fly.

There is more than just an army under the city, it is simply a military expo that gathers the encyclopedia of ancient and modern times!As far as arms are concerned, cavalry, infantry, sailors, archers... As far as weapons are concerned, swords, guns, swords and halberds, spears, spears, sticks and axe, whips, maces, hammers and forks... As far as chariots are concerned, they are charging chariots, cloud chariots, Chariots, stone carts, skycars, car crashes, watchtower carts... What's even more peculiar is that not only two-legged humans, but also four-legged tigers, cheetahs, rhinos, and elephants came to participate in the battle. , imprisoned in an iron cage, with his head held high, roared towards Kunyang City.

The Han army had never seen such a strange battlefield. For a while, their scalp was numb, their legs and feet were weak, and they almost suspected that they were in a dream, and it was the most terrifying nightmare. Wang Yi sat high on top of the elephant, and the yellow cover on his head was extraordinarily bright in the cold gray.Wang Xing, who was in the Chinese army with Wang Yi, embraced his beloved beauty and leaned in the car, trying to add a touch of tenderness to the bloody battlefield with their affection.Wang Yi saw that the Han army on the top of the city was almost all there, so he pointed his whip at a distance, and a thin barbarian began to beat a huge war drum, and dozens of war drums sounded, the sound shook hundreds of miles, and the earth shook mountains shake.The Jumbo came out more and more, holding a hemp rope, and led out a string of Han army prisoners, each with pale faces and dull eyes.They are about to be sacrificed by officers, soldiers and priests, and the Han army in the city can do nothing to help them, they can only look at them with sympathy and sorrow.

The giant roared up to the sky, and its sound was even louder than the war drums. After roaring, he grabbed a prisoner with his open hand and tore them in half. Accompanied by splashing blood, millions of officers and soldiers cheered in unison.The giant trampled another prisoner under his feet, grabbed his hair with his hands, and forcibly pulled off his head. Blood gushed out into the air, red like fireworks, and millions of officers and soldiers shouted again.It was the first time for Wang Xing to see such a scene, and he was trembling with fright, while the beauty beside him seemed inexplicably excited, winking like silk, and moaning softly.

Ju Mac ordered the rest of the captives to kneel down, stretched out his hand, and the knife came. The big knife weighing more than 100 jin was like a toy in his hand, so he chopped off their heads, and the heads rolled to the ground.The soldiers picked up the remains on the ground and threw them into the iron cage. The tigers and leopards were overjoyed, dripping with blood, and chewing wildly. Such a cruel killing, such a terrifying force, all the Han soldiers were shocked, lost their souls, and fell into despair.After the priest finished, Wang Yi waved his flag and attacked, violently: A rain of arrows that covered the clouds and the sun poured down towards the city of Kunyang.Under the cover of the rain of arrows, dozens of flood-filling vehicles marched side by side to build pontoon bridges on the moat.Dozens of cloud chariots, more than ten feet high, were pushed to the front of the city, overlooking the city, arrows rained down like rain.There is also a stone cart, and huge boulders fly up. Wherever they go, they will leave holes when they hit walls, and they will turn into mud when they hit people.Surrounded by infantry and guarded, the assault vehicle advanced towards the city gate, when a giant log slammed into the gate, the sound was dull and shocking.Ladders climbed up the city wall from all directions, and officers and soldiers climbed up like ants to storm the city.

In Kunyang City, all the men have taken up weapons, the battle has come, they have no time to fear, everyone has become a ruthless killing machine.Wang Feng led the crowd to stick to the top of the city, braved flying arrows and boulders, pushed and burned the ladders, and killed the officers and soldiers who climbed the city wall. One fell, and the other immediately went up.Wang Chang commanded the defense of the city gate and dealt with the assault vehicles with all his strength. He threw huge boulders from the city tower, smashed the guarding infantry hard, and poured oil on them, followed by torches.

Seeing the blaze of the scooter, the Jumac flew into a rage like an ancient monster, screamed strangely, rushed forward, swept away the officers and soldiers, and drove the giant log into the city gate.Every time it hit, the whole Kunyang City seemed to tremble accordingly.The king of the city often bent his bow and set an arrow, and shot it out, hitting the giant's shoulder.Jumbo was in pain, and pulled off the arrow, and at the same time pulled off a large piece of flesh.The Han army was condescending and fired a hundred arrows. The giant grabbed two soldiers and waved them above his head to resist the rain of arrows.Fearing that the Jumbo might be damaged, Wang Yi hurriedly dispatched more bows and crossbows to suppress the Han army on the tower and rescue the Jumbo.

The frenzied attacks of the officers and soldiers continued until the night was dark, and then the troops were withdrawn.However, for the Han army, everything was far from over. Even at night, they did not dare to rest. They hurriedly repaired the fortifications destroyed during the day, and sent people to take turns to patrol to prevent officers and soldiers from attacking at night. That night, a casualty report was placed on Wang Yi's desk. In one day, as many as 3,000 officers and soldiers died in battle.Yan Youjin remonstrated: "The city of Kunyang is small and strong. Although it can be conquered, the casualties will be heavy and it will take a long time. Now the main force of the Han army is in Wancheng, and the false emperor Liu Xuan is also in Wancheng. The great trouble of the empire. In my opinion, it is advisable to bypass Kunyang, rush into the army, rush to Wancheng, annihilate the main force of the Han army, and capture the false emperor Liu Xuan alive. Da Sikong also! Since the Han army is defeated, Kunyang will fall without attacking, so why bother?"

Wang Yi looked at Yan You coldly, and said sarcastically: "As far as I know, the general guarding Wancheng is Yan Shuo, the younger brother of General Yan. Although brotherly love is deep, selfishness cannot be tolerated in military affairs." In desperation, Yan You kowtowed and begged, saying: "The old minister is dedicated to the country, how dare he have the slightest selfishness. Now the defenders of Wancheng are at the end of their strength, and God knows how long they can last. Wancheng is still holding on. , just because I believe that the imperial court will send reinforcements. Hearing that Da Sikong led millions of troops, the soldiers of Wancheng are all happy. They are like looking forward to a loving mother like a child, and looking forward to rain like a scorching heat. They must not be disappointed. Wancheng is an important city of the empire. The soldiers of Wancheng are the soldiers of the empire. How can we abandon them and let them fend for themselves? If there is more delay and Wancheng is broken by Liu Bosheng, even if Kunyang is conquered, it will be a small loss and the gain outweighs the loss. Please Sikong think twice Think again."

Wang Yi sneered and said: "Only 3,000 people have died, and General Yan is afraid of this!" After finishing speaking, he said sharply: "I have made up my mind. Now I have a million soldiers, and I am ordered to suppress thieves. It is easy to crush chickens on Mount Tai Eggs are lighter than a feather in a four-wheel cart. Who can resist? Who dares to resist? First slaughter Kunyang, and then go forward with blood, singing and dancing, regardless of evil!" Yan You shook his head secretly, he had nothing to say, it's hard to tell if the way is different.Wang Yi prefers clumsiness over ingenuity, pushing forward like a bulldozer.It's like the way of writing, and both are masters. When encountering tricky points, some people are willing to go around, write falsely or simply leave blank, and the words are endless.Dostoevsky, for example, never evaded, attacked in a straight line, pierced and shattered everything with his clumsy and sharp power.

Can be light and agile, but he chooses to be wild. It can be gorgeous, but he chooses to be decisive.
