014. First cleaning

On the second day after Bailimer, Yan Qingting and Lan Guiren talked, Ji Fanxu, the king of Tan, attacked Yisheng Gate, the main gate of Kyoto, with a force of 60 troops and at least 20 troops here.

When the first ray of sunlight shone on the three freehand characters on Yisheng Gate in the early morning, there was a mournful whistle-like sound in the silent air, followed by a loud "boom" with echo.

The soldiers of Yi State who were in shallow sleep were awakened unprecedentedly in this life by the loud noise that started the hot battle. Thanks to the experience of resisting Ji Fanxu's siege several times before, after a short period of panic, the soldiers defending the city were orderly. into the defense of the city.

Bailimer discussed with the guards of the other five city gates the plan to defend the city in the middle of the night. The six debated endlessly on the topic of "Which gate will Ji Fanxu attack?" There was no unity of opinion between the two city gates and the southeast gate "Donghai Gate".

The three guarding generals headed by Bai Limo thought that Ji Fanxu would choose a city gate that everyone would not care about as a surprise attack, because Donghai Gate, as the name implies, faces the sea in the east. room to play.

On the one hand, Ji Fanxu didn't have a navy in his hands, and on the other hand, Ji Fanxu could easily face the enemy when fighting in the east, because Ji Fanxu knew that there was a seaside town to the east of the imperial capital, so it was hard to guarantee that the general who defended the city would have a navy in his hands.

Although tens of thousands versus hundreds of thousands are totally worthless in a head-to-head confrontation between naval forces in a town, the situation will be different if they are attacked from the front or back.Ji Fanxu does not allow any accidents in his action of breaking the boat, so he will definitely not attack Donghaimen.

This was the opinion of the other three generals who believed that "Yishengmen" was the main battlefield, and it was also the opinion of the three of Bailimer.

But there is one way to use troops, "surprise".

In the end, the six people ended the meeting without any illness, taking advantage of the calm before the storm to steal a few more hours of rest.

When Bailimer was shouted by the soldiers with a high-pitched voice, his brain was throbbing with pain. He sat on the bed and his brain went blank for a few breaths, then suddenly slapped the bed hard and pulled The shirt that was thrown aside ran out and tied the belt indiscriminately.

"Quickly inform Li Shilang, let him swear to guard the Yisheng gate, and absolutely don't let Ji Fanxu's soldiers come in with a finger!"

"General! They threw boulders at the gate early in the morning, and the city gate has been smashed!" The soldier running past in the courtyard slammed on the brakes when he heard Bailimer's roar, and turned to look at him eagerly.

"Cracked?" Bailimer raised his eyebrows, "If it's cracked, I'll nail it! Tell the sergeant Xiong, if the door is cracked, I'll mend the door, and if the city wall is broken, I don't care whether he burns it with fire or smashes it with stones." It's better to pour water and flood it, anyway, let me guard the Yisheng Gate!"

Bailimer fastened his belt and took the horse brought by his confidant, raised his leg and kicked the soldier.

"Don't hurry up!"

"Yes!"

The little soldier who was fooled by Bailimer's overlord theory snapped back to his senses, gave a military salute and hurried towards Yisheng Gate.

"If you go to Donghai Gate with me, Yisheng Gate must be a trick to beat the West, and Donghai Gate is the place to enter the hard battle."

After talking to his cronies, Bailimer whipped his horsewhip vigorously and galloped out.

Ji Fanxu had a total of 60 troops. Even if the six gates of the city lost 1 soldiers in the past two days, he still had 59.

If he used 20 to attack Yisheng Gate, then he would also use 20 to attack Donghai Gate.The remaining 19 are distributed in the remaining four gates, each of which may be more than 4, which is negligible for the defenders arranged by Barimer for the remaining four gates.

But the imperial capital has a total of 12 city guards, 7000 for Yisheng Gate, [-] for the southwest gate, [-] for the northwest gate, and more than [-] for each of the remaining three gates.

The reason why the number of people is so scattered is because Yi country faces the sea in the east, and the reason has just been analyzed.In the north, the border with Daqi is very close. If the troops on the frontier want to go to Kyoto, they can reach it in seven days if they advance at full speed.

If Ji Fanxu wanted to attack the North City Gate by surprise, he would have to make a quick decision. If he was delayed by the defenders for two to three days, then Ji Fanxu's plan to seize the city would go bankrupt.Because the seven days just mentioned are the marching time of infantry, if it is cavalry, then two or three days are enough to send reinforcements from the frontier.

Moreover, Ji Fanxu led people to attack from the south, and it happened to be facing Yisheng Gate, the main gate of Kyoto. If he wanted to mark his victory in the siege, he must enter Kyoto through Yisheng Gate generously, and Put Ji Fanxu's military flag on Yisheng Gate.

Moreover, in terms of terrain and city wall structure, because of the special geographical location of the North City Gate, the North City Gate is actually stronger than Yisheng Gate, and it is not even a little bit stronger.

There is nothing particularly special about the southwest and northwest city gates. There are many towns to the west of them.

So Ji Fanxu's main offensive these days has been concentrated on Yishengmen and these two city gates, which is why Bailimer arranged the number of defenders in this way.

But if you want to be unprepared, there are only three choices: the north city gate, the northeast city gate and the southeast city gate. Bai Limo thinks that Ji Fanxu should choose the north city gate without a cramp in his head, because the strength of the troops stationed at the frontier and the current The troops defending the city and the town facing the sea to the east are not at the same level, unless Ji Fanxu wants to seek death.

Of course Ji Fanxu would not seek death, so Donghai Gate is the only choice.

On the way to the Donghai Gate, Bai Limo told the capable generals around him to convey his intention of mobilizing troops, and now he wants to transfer some people from the southwest and northwest gates.Otherwise, unless Bailimer has supernatural power, Donghaimen will definitely fall.

Seven thousand against 20, that is courting death, and there are no exceptions.

When Bailimer arrived at Donghai Gate, as he expected, Donghai Gate had already fallen into a bitter battle.Looking at the chaotic scene in front of him, Bailimer suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. The war on Donghai Gate might have started earlier than the loud bang on Yisheng Gate.

"Hurry up and get Dr. Luo!" Bai Limo got off his horse and hurried towards the city gate, calling out to the people around him.

"General, Imperial Physician Luo is already at the city gate!" The soldiers who hurried past turned their heads and shouted when they heard Bai Limo's words.

When Bailimer rushed up the city wall, Luo Yi was standing on the city wall calmly directing the soldiers to dump powdery things down the city, while the soldiers guarding the city had their faces covered with a thick wet cloth, Bailimer saw The appearance did not interrupt Luo Yi's work, but he held his breath and leaned on the city wall to see it.

But Bailimer found that no matter how he looked at it, these soldiers who were climbing up the city wall were not affected by the powder at all. Bailimer frowned and stepped back to stare at Luo Yi suspiciously.

Sack after sack of powder was blown by the northwest wind that blew early in the morning, making the heads of the siege soldiers under the city wall dark yellow, which looked like sand brought up by galloping horses from a distance.

"What are you doing? Playing with dirt early in the morning?"

Bailimo, who had been silent for a long time, saw that Luo Yi finally directed the soldiers to sprinkle all the sacks, so he made a quiet sound.

"In the past two days, I have made a medicine for various poisons in the outlying forest of Kyoto. This powder is tasteless to people, but it is very attractive to those things."

Luo Yi shook the hem of his clothes and retreated to Bailimer's side, looking indifferently at the constantly surging heads below the city.

"With just one more cup of tea, the city wall will be covered with poison."

"A cup of tea?" Bailimer raised his eyebrows, "In this situation where there are 20 outside and [-] inside, the effort of breathing is very important. A cup of tea now is no better than sitting in your yard. A cup of tea time for tea tasting."

"I'm an imperial doctor." Hearing Bailimer's complaints and accusations, Luo Yi still didn't make any statement with a bland expression.

Bailimer, who still wanted to make some remarks, almost choked to death on Luo Yi's words, and couldn't help but feel glad that he didn't eat in the morning.

Luo Yi's sentence means that I am an imperial doctor, and I should not come to this kind of forward position on the battlefield. The city gate is not the place for me to climb up, and I should deal with the wounded soldiers in the rear.Now that he is willing to stand here as a target and think of a solution for you to deal with the dense group of people below, it is already very good.

People, be content.

Bai Limo took a deep breath, the fresh and cool air in the morning made him feel a little better.

"Bring a team to bring over the swill that hasn't been transported out of the palace in the past two days!" Bai Limo gritted his teeth, "Go to another team and bring ten buckets of water, hurry up! Doctor Luo, please You go and mix some highly corrosive medicinal powder that turns into water when it meets water! The rest of the people have been resisted by me. Inside the city are your relatives and lovers, who are the lifeblood of our Yi country. Once the city gate is breached, we will Only be reduced to a prisoner and be bullied and slaughtered by others!"

"Brothers! Hold on!"

"Push all these bastards down, so that they can't reach us with a single finger!"

"Smash these bastards to death!"

Following Bailimer's shouts, there were echoes on the city wall one after another, and seeing the anger gradually recovering, Bailimer relaxed a little.

"General, it's not good. The other party has listed a catapult, and it looks like they are going to throw a flint." The observer turned around and looked at Bai Limo anxiously, his eyes full of horror.

"The archers go to line up to get water first, make sure they are soaked and take the rocket to the city." Bailimer's brows that had just been stretched were frowned again, and he took two steps forward, "Go and get my bow! Let's line up again." The team went to collect the sand, and after the collection was done, they were dispersed and lined up on both sides of the city gate, and if there was any flint progress, I would cover it with sand until it was extinguished!"

"Yes!"

"The rest of the people on the wall obey orders! I will guard the city with you here, but the gang below are rebels who have betrayed my Yi country. Since they pointed their finger at you, who are brothers, they are no longer Yi. Citizens of the country! Don’t be merciful, come one to kill one, come two to kill one pair! Make sure they come with their lives and come back with their lives!”

"Fate to come, no life to return!"

Bai Limo took a deep breath, raised his bow and set up an arrow, aimed at the commander of the catapult formation in the distance and shot the first arrow of the day.The arrow body pierced through the air, made a shrill sound, and went straight to the chest of the enemy commander.

"Hold on to this moment. When the archers are in position with the rockets, go down and pour water, and then come up with kerosene. One person pours the oil down and the other ignites the fire! They use fire and we use fire, and it's not rude to come and go!"

Just as Bailimer was speaking, the arrow that flew out was firmly nailed to the chest of the other commander.

Bailimo's arrows are all specially made. Once the arrow penetrates into a person's body, many hooks will emerge from the root of the arrow to tightly hook the person's flesh, like the sharp claws of a leopard.If you hook the bone, you can't pull out the arrow unless you cut the flesh and break the bone.

Bailimo concentrated his energy and searched for the commander-in-chief of the siege in the crowd, but he did not see Ji Fanxu, the king of Yi, and finally saw Ji Fanxu's capable general not far from the foot of the city gate. It is this person.After seeing this person, Bailimer's mood became worse and worse. Now it can definitely prove that Donghaimen is not a bluff, but at the same time, it also shows that the siege of the city was carried out at the same time as Yishengmen and Donghaimen.

If one door is breached, the other will fall in the blink of an eye.The loss of the two gates with the most troops among the six gates meant that the entire capital city fell instantly.

"Your Majesty, come back quickly!"

Realizing this, Bailimo couldn't help thinking in his heart that even if the northwest was occupied by Daxi at this time, it was only a matter of a few cities.But if the capital falls, the throne will be gone.

The throne is gone, and there is no talk of sticking to the northwest territory, even if you keep it, you will be a wedding dress for others!

"General! The archers are in place!"

A loud shout brought Bailimer back to his thoughts. He turned his head and saw that the archers had already stood up. He waved his hand to signal the rest of the people to go down to the city gate to get some water.

"Light it up and shoot arrows down the city!"

Under the command of Bailimer, the soldiers defending the city were making preparations in an orderly manner. The new archers were responsible for continuing to hinder the soldiers who kept climbing the city gate. commander.

But Bailimer's strength alone was limited, and soon he heard the sound of stones breaking through the air from far to near. Some of the violently burning stones jumped over the city wall and smashed directly into the city, and some directly hit the archer's feet.

The scene was a little chaotic for a while.

"Hold on!" Bailimer suddenly let out a tiger roar, shocking the soldiers who were in a mess, "Dodge when the flint comes, and continue shooting in another place. When the soldiers with kerosene are in position, you Take charge of the enemy soldiers in the distance."

"Yes!"

Just before Bailimer spoke, the soldiers who went down to drench had already run up with kerosene and torches, and stood staggered with the archers.

"Okay!" Bai Limo shot a man who secretly climbed up the city wall down the city gate with an arrow, and his brows were furrowed with a smile, "You are responsible for fueling the fire, and the archers are responsible for the people in the distance." .They throw flints at us, and we'll set them on fire, and we'll see who gets the most!"

For a while, there were fires inside and outside the Donghai Gate.

"General, the water is coming!"

When Bailimer was shooting arrows, the soldiers behind him reported loudly.

"Okay! Take buckets of water and pour them down!"

Bailimer put down the bow and arrow in his hand, walked down from the watchtower, picked up a wooden bucket full of water, then returned his hand and poured it under the city wall.

"General..." The soldiers beside Bailimer looked puzzled, "This...the fire on them will be extinguished?"

"No." Hearing the soldier's question, Bailimer showed a sly smile, scooped up the bucket of water again, and said, "Come and watch."

After the sound of "哗啦", it was followed by the wailing of more people under the city wall.

"This..." The soldier looked at the city in disbelief, and then at Bailimer.

"We lit the fire with kerosene, and when kerosene meets water, it will intensify the fire." Bai Limo explained with a smile.

"Brothers! Let's pour water on them!"

After hearing Bai Limo's explanation, the soldiers shouted joyfully, dropped the torches in their hands, picked up an empty bucket on one side, and went to ladle water.

"Let them flint us and burn the beasts to death!"

Not long after the climax of watering started, the soldiers standing on the city wall heard screams outside the city wall. Everyone slowly put down the buckets in their hands, looked at their own people and at the people below the city wall in astonishment. people.

"Hmph! The timing is just right."

Bai Limo couldn't help snorting, the medicinal powder that Luo Yi sprinkled before had an effect at this moment, and the opponent's camp was now full of all kinds of poisons, presumably this battle to win the door was about to come to an end.

"The effect is good." Luo Yi, who did not know when he had boarded the city gate, commented lightly standing beside Bailimer.

"The potion has been adjusted?" Bailimo glanced sideways at Luo Yi, "Donghai Gate is no longer needed, let someone send it to Yisheng Gate."

"It's already been delivered." Luo Yi responded, "I didn't want to use it here earlier."

Hearing Luo Yi's words, Bai Limo curled his lips in disapproval. It turns out that this straight-minded person also has a hidden arrogance attribute.

"I have been tossing and tossing since early in the morning, and finally I can calm down for a while." Bailimer stretched his hands and stretched them back and forth twice, and said with a smile, "When the master comes back, the world will be peaceful, and now the internal and external troubles can be regarded as resolved at the same time. It's a pity... um!"

"Damn it, bring me my bow!"

Bailimer used all his strength to circle Luo Yi, who was standing in front of him in an instant, because of the strength of the arrow that pierced through the air, the two of them took two steps back to gain a firm footing.

"Has your head been invaded by poisonous powder? I am a military officer, so I need you to block arrows for me!"

While cursing, Bai Limo put Luo Yi flat, and when he saw the blood donation bubbling from the other's left chest, his eyes turned red.

"Damn it! I just said that it was a pity that I didn't see Ji Fanxu's good-for-nothing, and now I took the initiative to send it to my door!"

Handing Luo Yi to the soldiers on the side, Bailimer raised his bow and arrow with a full face, looked around, and quickly locked on the target.

There was an ear-piercing sound of "咻咻" piercing the air, and Bailimer's arrow roared out.

Before the arrow hit the man, Bai Limo shot two more arrows in succession.

In the end, none of the three arrows was wasted. Ji Fanxu's most proud general had one in each of his left and right chests, and one straight in the center of his forehead.

The moment the man slipped off the horse and fell to the ground with his eyes open unwillingly, the siege battle that lasted for most of the day finally came to an end.

Ji Fanxu's 20 troops in Donghaimen were defeated miserably, only [-] people were left alive in the end, losing one confidant and a hundred generals, the record was tragic.

This siege battle perfectly interprets the meaning of "several families are happy and several families are sad".There were laughter and cheers up and down in the capital of Yiguo, but Ji Fanxu stood in front of the tent, his eyes were red with anger, and his handsome and tough face was distorted by anger.

"It's not over yet!"
