When the cavalry was about to kill the bandits, Dugutian's soldiers were already a hundred steps ahead of the bandits. Seeing that the crossbowmen had reached the shooting distance, Dugutian no longer hesitated, and ordered the sword and shield soldiers to go forward to guard The front and sides of the crossbowmen were fixed, while the pikemen were ready to charge and attack after ten rounds of crossbowmen. Under the order of the captain of the crossbowmen, a thousand crossbowmen were divided into three rows, and attacked according to the three-stage attack method usually trained. The sword and shield soldiers had already moved forward to protect the three directions of the crossbowmen. The bandits at that time were completely unable to attack the soldiers who came out of Luoyang City, but the soldiers trained by Huang Zhong had made the generals and soldiers strictly enforce the battlefield regulations.
Hearing an order, the soldiers who had completed the formation maintained a neat formation and moved towards the bandits. The sound of the neat marching steps of thousands of soldiers finally alarmed the bandits outside. The attack distance of a big yellow crossbow is 80 steps, but the enemy on the opposite side basically has no strong attack ability. In order to better display the attack ability of the crossbowmen, Dugutian didn't order the crossbow until the distance was only 60 steps. The soldiers attacked, and for a moment, the dense crossbow arrows like locusts rushed towards the bandit army like a black cloud.
"Buzz..."
"Pu Chi Pu Chi..."
After ten consecutive rounds of crossbow arrows, the formation of bandits facing the direction of Luoyang City seemed to be cut by a knife. Thirty thousand crossbow arrows took the lives of thousands of bandits. The powerful attack caused the bandits behind to become a mess, no bandits obeyed the command of the leaders anymore, and all of them retreated as if they were ghosts, regardless of whether there was anyone behind them or not. , directly turned his head and slashed at the bandit accomplice in front of him, and after killing the accomplice who blocked him in front of him, he screamed and ran wildly without looking back.
Seeing this situation, Dugutian quickly ordered the spearmen to attack, while the sword and shield soldiers were still guarding the crossbowmen and divided into two teams, preparing to encircle and wipe out the bandits from both sides. At this time, Hu Yandu had already led the cavalry to kill the bandits, and assembled the cavalry a hundred steps behind them. Seeing that Dugutian's infantry had already entered the battle, Hu Yandu divided the cavalry into two teams. Both sides surrounded all the bandits at the entire north gate. According to the news from the scouts, after the bandits at the north gate occupied Luobei Town, only more than 20,000 bandits actually fought, and the other 20,000 people were veterans. Weak women and Confucian scholars have now been placed in Luobei Town.
In this way, just as Huangfu Chaobo meant, the biggest gap in Luoyang now is the population. Now that the bandits have sent tens of thousands of people, if they don't want it, it will really cause anger and resentment. So Huangfu Chaobo ordered Zaozhi and Huyandu to defeat these bandits as much as possible, and then drive them all to Luobei Town. After the largest rebel army, these populations will be Huangfu Chaobo's captives. By then, Luoyang's population will increase by tens of thousands. So several people also followed the previous plan. There were more than 20,000 bandits attacking the city at the north gate, plus thousands of rebels who drove over from the east gate, a total of nearly 30,000 people, and 5,000 people were lost under the city wall. The cavalry wiped out more than 3,000 people, and then more than 3,000 people were wiped out by Dugutian's crossbowmen who left the city. In the end, nearly 15,000 people were left and were driven to Luobei Town.
After driving all these bandits into Luobei Town, the sky had already darkened. Hu Yandu ordered thousands of infantry out of the city to surround the four gates of Luobei Town, and then a hundred paces away from the town, At intervals a great bonfire was lit,
Another 3,000 cavalry were arranged to patrol the night in turn. In this way, the more than 30,000 bandits in Luobei Outer Town became Huangfu Chaobo's dishes. The East Gate and South Gate have also cleaned up the battlefield, so the seized items have been transported to a temporary designated location in the inner city for storage. As for the prisoners, all of them have been detained together, and these will have to be sorted out in detail after the war. , and now there is still a big problem that has not been resolved.
While the other gates were fighting, the rebel attack at Ximen was proceeding in an orderly manner.
From the beginning of filling the moat in the morning, the leader of the rebel army showed a good military quality, um, according to Huang Zhong, it should be the opponent's general who is also a person who knows the soldiers. Under the protection of cannon fodder and shield soldiers, it took the rebels nearly half a day to fill in a few siege passages in the moat. However, facing the defenders with the same attack force, the price they paid was only half of that of the north gate. . After the siege channel was prepared, the rebel general did not immediately arrange for the soldiers to attack the city, but slightly adjusted the soldiers and divided them into two parts. One part escorted two well rails and several other siege equipment slowly Some approach the city, while the other part eats on the spot. Looking at the actions of the rebels outside the city, Huang Zhong smiled and said: "It seems that the other party is indeed a man who knows how to fight, but that's all he has!" He ordered half of the archers to harass the escort well outside the city. At this time, it was almost noon, and the civilians in the city had already prepared a noon meal. Since the rebels were not in a hurry to attack, it was better to let the soldiers eat first.
Sure enough, the offensive strength of the rebels was not strong. When the Jinglan guarded by 5,000 soldiers reached the attack area, they stopped advancing and shot at the defenders on the city wall. With a numerical advantage, neither side can do anything to the other. After all the troops in the camp had eaten their lunch, the rebels prepared for their first real attack. And Huang Zhong on the city wall is also ready to defend.
"Boom..."
Only the sound of drums was heard, and about 10,000 rebel soldiers filed out from the camp, formed a formation at the gate of the camp, and then marched towards the city wall. These players who were helping to defend the city on the wall It seems to be quite satisfactory, these rebels can be said to be elite soldiers. But in Huang Zhong's view, he scoffed at it, and it was not worth mentioning at all. At this moment, Huang Zhong really didn't know what these rebel generals were thinking and what they were relying on to attack Luoyang City. There are less than 30,000 soldiers and horses, but there are 5,000 Xiliang iron cavalry here. Even if there is no matching Xiliang general to lead them, the special troops are stronger than the intermediate troops. The soldiers who have gone through several battles, and Huang Zhong's training in the past two months, are twice as strong as the junior soldiers of the rebel army.
