Chapter 46: Storming Handan City

Outside Handan City, the elite cavalry of ten thousand Yellow Turban Army were almost completely damaged, and only nearly a thousand people fled into the city.

In this battle, the Yanlang Cavalry became famous and famous, but it also suffered heavy losses. Nearly three thousand casualties, more than one thousand of whom were killed and more than two thousand were injured, which was a great blow to the Yanlang Cavalry.

Yan Rong's heart was bleeding. It was not too many that Yan Lang's rider didn't come. There were only more than 8,000 people, and three thousand casualties were killed and killed, which was equivalent to two-fifths of the loss. Among them, 500 were Wuhuan warriors, and 2,500 were strong soldiers recruited.

At that time, there were only 3,000 warriors in Wuhuan, and now they have lost one sixth. These are the core of the Yanlang Cavalry. The elite among the elites who have experienced many battles will lose one less person, and it will be impossible to replenish them in a short period of time.

However, this battle is not without benefits. At least, the current Yanlang Knight can truly be considered a army of battles after experiencing real bloody battles. With the Wuhuan warriors who have experienced many battles as their pillars, they will be trained through the bloodstream. Those strong soldiers who have been supplemented will soon be integrated into it. With the rapid increase in strength, Yanlang Knight can truly become an elite among the elite, a king's army that will never be defeated in a hundred battles.

The next day, the sky just lit up.

Under Handan City, the Han army surrounded on all sides launched a charge towards Handan City like a tide.

The seventy thousand army launched an attack on Handan City regardless of primary and secondary.

The four camps of the vanguard, east, south, west and north, under the command of their respective generals, each Han soldier set up a series of siege ladders on the city wall and attacked frantically on the city wall.

In an instant, the entire Handan City was trembling with the sound of killing.

Handan City has a solid city and high walls, and there are sufficient equipment to guard the city.

The hot tincture oil and the rolling wood and stones fell like raindrops. All the Han soldiers who were affected were screaming and either died or injured.

The sound of killing shook the sky, and the strong wind raged. One Han soldier fell to the ground, and another Han soldier, under the supervision of the general, embarked on the road of no return again.

During the tragic battle of the city walls, 20,000 soldiers from the vanguard army were killed and killed. Among them, 12,000 soldiers sprinkled blood on the battlefield and died tragically under the city of Handan. They had killed on the wall several times, but they missed the victory several times, and were ruthlessly killed and drove off the city.

For a moment, dark clouds were covered with Han army.

In desperation, he had to change his combat methods, regardless of black and white, attacking the city day and night, and still sent troops to attack the city every day, but he always feinted the attack on Handan City and did not attack with all his strength.

In the blink of an eye, it was another three days. In the past three days, Handan City was shaking with drums and shouting to kill, but the Han army did not really fight with the Yellow Turban Army defending the city. It was just constantly harassing. After several harassment, it was a tentative attack. Seeing that the Yellow Turban Army defending the city was still waiting for the battle, the siege retreated again like a tide.

In fact, there are not many Yellow Turban troops guarding the city in Handan City.

Originally, there were 20,000 elite Yellow Turban Army stationed in Handan City. The Han army defeated the 80,000 Yellow Turban Army in Handan, of which 8,000 fled into Handan City. Even if the two groups of people were added together, it was only 28,000.

On that day, the generals in front of the formation followed by a head-on confrontation between the cavalry, and the Yellow Turban Army lost 9,000 elite soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army. By this calculation, the remaining troops in the city would definitely not exceed 19,000, and the elite soldiers were only 11,000.

The 19,000 Yellow Turban Army, the Han army attacked the city with all its might in the first three days, and 20,000 vanguard soldiers were injured and killed. Although the Han army suffered heavy losses, the Yellow Turban Army relied on the city to be solid and the wall was high, and the losses were not large, but there were thousands of casualties. After three consecutive days of harassment, the Han army attacked tentatively. Several times the Han army killed the city and almost captured the city gate. Although it ended with the failure of the Han army being driven down from the city gate, the Yellow Turban Army suffered a lot, with a total of three thousand.

Now, the number of soldiers who can fight in Handan City is 15,000, of which less than 10,000 are the elite troops of the Yellow Turban Army.

A 15,000 defender is indeed a strong force for a city.

Like the city of Yiyang City, ten thousand people stationed in it seemed crowded.

However, Yiyang is no better than Handan. Handan is the political center of Zhao State and was once the capital, so its size is not comparable to Yiyang.

Handan City is one of the few big cities in Yizhou, Hebei Province. The city is solid and the wall is high, and the urban area is even wider. Before the Yellow Turban Uprising, Handan was a few big cities with more than 100,000 people in the city. None of them were crowded, which shows the scale of Handan City.

The 15,000 Yellow Turban Army was stationed in Handan City, and even if all the soldiers climbed to the top of the city, it was still sparse. This is also the reason why Han soldiers could still climb to the top of the city when the defending equipment was abundant in Handan City, because the defense of the city was insufficient. In the same case, if the defending soldiers were 100,000 and the attacking soldiers were 1 million, Handan City would be more solid, which is not an exaggeration. With sufficient defense of the city, the power of Handan City could withstand millions of soldiers.

In the six days, the Han army had no choice but to take advantage of the Yellow Turban Army in Handan City.

Even though the commander of the Yellow Turban Army, Guan Hai, was seriously injured and could not effectively command the defenders to fight. Even if the troops guarding the city were insufficient, the Han army still had no choice.

On seven days, the Yellow Turban Reinforcements from the surrounding counties will arrive.

Now, six days have passed.

The Han army has not had much time, and they still have one day.

In the second half of the night of the sixth day, the tent outside Handan City was brightly lit.

"According to the Malay News! The Yellow Turban Reinforcements are coming quickly and are likely to arrive here in advance. If the Yellow Turban Army march fast enough, it will arrive before sunset tomorrow."

Yan Rong frowned and looked at the sparse number of major generals in the tent, and said worriedly.

Nowadays, the Han army has suffered a lot of casualties.

In the successive battles, not only did the soldiers suffer heavy casualties, but the generals also suffered a lot. Han Meng, Liao Hua, and Di Ying were all seriously injured and could not go into battle to kill the enemy.

"Before dawn, be sure to capture Handan City, and later changes will occur." Tian Feng said briefly.

"As far as the sir said."

Yan Rong pulled up and spread out the city defense map of Handan City. Then, military orders were issued quickly.

After all the orders were issued, Yan Rong put one hand on Shi Feng's shoulder and pondered for a moment and said, "Shi Feng! Whether you can capture Handan City tonight depends on the thousand brothers in your Guards. Raise troops for a thousand days and use troops for a while. Even if you fight to the last soldier, you must nail them to Handan City for me. If you can destroy Handan City before dawn, your Guards should make their first contribution."

"Shi Feng cannot repay his kindness for his cultivation in this life. Tonight, he should devote himself to his whole life and die. The city is in his hands, and the city is in his hands and people are dead. He will be full of passion for the Han Dynasty." Shi Feng said solemnly.

"Good brothers! We will succeed! After destroying Handan City, I will personally hold a banquet for the brothers in the Guard Camp to celebrate."

Yan Rong hugged Shi Feng and tapped Shi Feng's chest with his fist. In the corner of his eyes, there was a faint reluctance to leave, which was slightly dispersed.

This time, the Guards were absolutely dead for life. After capturing Handan City, Yan Rong didn’t know how many of the 1,000 brothers from the Guards were able to survive. It might be five hundred, or three hundred, but it is more likely that less than one hundred, or even lower, and it is not impossible for the entire army to be destroyed. As the commander of the Guards, Shi Feng is naturally extremely dangerous and difficult to protect himself.

The Guards are the elite among the elite. Whether it is morale, strength, or the tenacity of soldiers, they must be far superior to other units. Therefore, this most important task naturally needs to be handed over to the Guards to complete, and only the Guards can complete the most difficult tasks, even the Special Forces Battalion cannot do it. They lack the spirit of being fearless and fearless, and they cannot reach the state of being trapped in a desperate situation.

At the beginning, in order to cultivate the Guard Battalion, almost all the elite troops in the army were drawn, so that at critical moments, the Guard Battalion could play a crucial role.

Now, this time has come, and the Guards will fight for their glory and bloom the glory that belongs to their Guards.

As the main force in capturing Handan City, Shi Feng anticipated what might happen to the Guards in the future from the moment Yan Rong issued the order.
