my wife is mulan

With the concerted efforts of the two teams, all the Rouran soldiers and slaves who climbed the walls and fortresses were wiped out.

In the army formation of Rouran under the hillside, the coach Da Na frowned and saw this scene, raised his hand and waved: "Order, tell them to withdraw and rest for half an hour before attacking!"

"As ordered!"

With the sound of a desolate horn, the Rouran soldiers and slave soldiers retreated like a tide, leaving only layers of corpses, a large number of weapons, and wooden siege ladders.

Many of Monalujin's soldiers sat down on the city wall full of blood and corpses, gasping for breath. They didn't notice it when they were fighting the Rouran people, but now they felt that they couldn't lift up their strength.

Hua Mulan looked at the retreating Rouran soldiers and slaves, then at the corpses all over the ground below the city and the scattered wooden siege ladders. She summoned Huahai and said, "Go find some ropes and iron hooks!"

"Yes, Master!"

Monalujin and his men can rest, but Hua Muli and her soldiers cannot. They have just arrived and still have sufficient energy.

Huahai quickly brought a few people over with some ropes and iron hooks, and under Hua Mulan's instructions,

, Huahai and the soldiers tied the ropes to the iron hooks, put down the iron hooks and hooked all the wooden siege ladders left by the Rouran people on the city wall. It will be much more difficult in the attack.

"Banzhu, all the wooden ladders under the city have been taken up!"

Hua Mulan turned her head and asked Mona Loujin: "Jinling Camp has ordered me to be the chief general, and everyone in Nantian Fort is under my command! Mona Loujin, how much fire oil is there in the fort?"

"More than 20 barrels!" Monaloujin replied, "There is only so much, and it will be gone when it is used up! When the Rouran people attacked in the morning, we had already poured kerosene and used more than 40 barrels!"

Hua Mulan immediately ordered: "Leave five barrels for spare, bring the others up and boil!"

"Take orders!" Huahai clasped her fists in agreement, turned around and left with her hands.

Buckets of kerosene were carried up and poured into an iron pan, and a raging fire was lit with firewood under the pan, and the pot of kerosene was quickly boiled.

Then Hua Mulan organized people to move a lot of stones from the south of the mountain to the city wall in case of emergencies.

Hua Mulan remembered the discussion about the battle of defending the city in the soldiers. She divided her 300 troops into two groups. The first group of 200 people was the main force, and the remaining 100 people were the reserve team.

Then, she divided the 200 main combat troops into archers, sword and shield players, spearmen and miscellaneous soldiers.The main duties of the sword and shield hand and the long spear are to guard behind the female wall, use the shield to block the arrows shot from under the city wall, and use long knives and spears to kill the enemies who climbed the city wall or are still on the siege ladder.

The archers are responsible for shooting and killing the enemy archers, and carry out long-range suppression. If the enemy does not arrange archers to support them, they will shoot and kill the commander Rouran, Xiaoshuai, etc. under the city.

Miscellaneous soldiers are responsible for throwing thunderstones, rolling logs, and pouring kerosene and boiling water.

Just after Hua Mulan's deployment was completed, the attack horn sounded from the Rouran army formation at the foot of the hill: "Woo—————"

"Kill—" a large number of slaves rushed towards Nantian Castle driven by the Rouran Supervising Team.

Chapter 311 Mulan's Law of Defense

Rouran's army has been attacking Nantian Fort for two days, and there were only [-] defenders in Nantian Fort before, but it was able to defend for two days. It is not without reason.

The most important reason is the terrain. From the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there are traps, barbs and thorns that have been arranged before. The width that can be used to deploy troops is less than 30 meters, which also includes traps, barbs and thorns The Rouran people used the lives of the slaves to forcefully fill up these traps, and used their lives to destroy all the barbs and thorns on the wooden posts, so that they could launch a normal attack.

Therefore, even though the Rouran people have an army of tens of thousands, there are not many troops that can actually be put into battle each time, because no matter how many people there are, they cannot afford it, and the input of attacking force is limited.

Except for some of Hua Mulan's subordinates who had participated in the defense of Nantian Castle with her, the others had almost no experience in defense of the city, nor did they have any training in this area on weekdays. They were all trained in cavalry combat. Now everyone who asked them to defend the city is at a loss. Even Mona Loujin and another building general are rushing to put ducks on the shelves. They have no rules at all and don't know how to deploy them. It was difficult to hold for two days. If the terrain were a little more gentle, Nantian Fort would have been breached long ago.

Not to mention that these people have never defended the city, the Xianbei people used the quick horse machete to start the Northern Wei Dynasty. They are only good at field battles, and they don't understand how to defend and attack the city, let alone the Rouran people.

This also caused 20 years later in history {AD 450} Emperor Tuoba Tao of the Northern Wei Dynasty led 42 troops to the south to attack Liu Song's Xuanhu City. All the commanders and officers ran away, and only one soldier named Chen Xian stood up to take over the command. He led a thousand defenders, with the support of the people in the city, withstood the onslaught of Tuoba Tao's [-] troops for [-] days. , Tuoba Tao suffered heavy losses, tens of thousands of soldiers were killed or injured in this battle.

It can be seen from this that in the early and early middle periods of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the army of the Northern Wei Dynasty was mainly composed of cavalry, and they were neither good at attacking the city nor good at defending the city. But in the south, he was helpless against a small city.

Among the three generals, only Hua Mulan had a little bit of experience in defending the city, and she was appointed by the Jinling Camp to guard the Nantian Castle, so she took over the command as a matter of course.

"Everyone, don't panic. According to the deployment of this building, each of you will perform your own duties, and your colleagues will help and cooperate with each other! Don't look at how powerful the Rouran people are, but they are also a group of idiots who can't attack the city. Look at these slaves rushing over, are they holding weapons? Are they wearing armor? They have no decent weapons and neither decent armor. If they want to die, we will fulfill them!"

Encouraged by Hua Mulan, the soldiers gradually stabilized their minds and temporarily got rid of their fear.

Monalujin and another general have already taken their troops down to rest. The defense of the city wall and fortress has been completely taken over by Hua Mulan and her soldiers. These people trust Hua Mulan and follow her orders. thorough.

Seeing a large crowd of slaves rushing up the hillside, the soldiers on the fortress and walls began to panic again.

Hua Mulan immediately yelled: "Hold on, hold on to this general! All the soldiers, listen up, get ready the rocks!"

The miscellaneous soldiers bent down and lifted the stones to walk behind the sword and shield soldiers. After Hua Mulan shouted loudly: "Smash it for me—"

Stones were thrown down the city wall one by one by the soldiers. The stones fell on the ground and rolled forward. A few meters below the city wall was the hillside. The stones rolled down the hillside, making a rumbling sound.

The slaves who climbed up saw many stones of different sizes falling from the city wall, and the stones rolled down the hillside and hit them. The slaves showed panic expressions one by one. The people in front turned around and ran away, but the slaves behind But they are climbing up, blocked by two phases, those who want to escape cannot escape, and those who want to go upward cannot go up.

Stones rolled down one after another and smashed into the crowd of slaves. The slaves and Rouran soldiers let out screams. Some people were directly thrown to the ground and crushed many people, and some were directly rolled down. As many people rolled down the hillside, a large area fell on the hillside.

stone not

The smashing stopped, some of the slaves on the hillside were bloody, many fell to the ground and were trampled to vomit blood, the whole hillside was in chaos and howling, trampled on each other or killed or injured countless people.

Before the first wave of attack was formed, it was smashed by a pile of stones and caused heavy casualties to Rouran people.

Marshal Rouran was furious and yelled: "Idiots, they are all a group of idiots. Isn't it courting death if you line up so densely? Send the order to let the slaves keep a distance and don't swarm up! Every time you go up 30 people, wait for the first wave to rush up before the second wave can start to rush up! Also, remember to bring a siege ladder!"

"Yes, handsome!"

Under the arrangement and command of the ten captains and the commanders of the Rouran Supervision Team, the slaves were divided into several siege teams of 30 people. They rushed up the hillside with crude weapons, some of them carrying siege ladders.

Someone among the defenders on the fort shouted: "Banzhu, the Rouran people are coming again!"

"Don't panic!" Hua Mulan yelled, and yelled to her back: "The four-man team of soldiers carry the log, ready to—"

The first wave of Rouran slaves was about to rush up the hill, when Hua Mulan suddenly yelled: "Roll the log—"

Nine rolling logs fell down on the hillside, and the Rouran slaves who were about to rush to the top of the hill were smashed straight.

"Ah—" the Rouran slaves in front screamed and rolled down the hillside.

The rolling logs did not stop, and the rolling logs rolled down the hillside one after another, at an increasingly faster speed, and the Rouran slaves behind were smashed to the ground and were run over by the rolling logs. Some of the Rouran slaves on the road had broken hands and feet, some were disheveled, and some had broken waists, which was too horrible to look at.

The Rouran people were not frightened, and driven by the supervisor team, the second wave of slaves began to rush to the hillside again.

Logs were soon dropped on the walls and fortresses, and the slaves suffered more and more casualties, while the defenders had fewer logs and fewer stones.

After attacking for a full hour, Rouran's army could not get close to the city wall, but the number of logs and stones dropped from the city wall became less and less, and in the end the defenders could only shoot with bows and arrows.

"Okay, their logs and stones are exhausted, now let those slaves attack the commander with all their strength!" Commander Rouran ordered loudly.

This time, the Rouran people had no scruples, and they drove a large number of slaves up the hillside to rush towards the city walls and fortresses on the hill.

"Archers are free to shoot their arrows!" Hua Mulan ordered loudly.

The archers hid behind the sword and shield soldiers and kept firing arrows at the Rouran soldiers on the hillside. These archers had a considerable amount of bow and arrow training, and their shooting accuracy was relatively high. There were many Rouran soldiers hiding among the slaves They were all shot, and without the slaves driven by the Rouran soldiers, the impact speed slowed down.
