Yuliguo did not give up the attack because of the temporary defeat. They summed up their experience to deal with this unexpected situation. Aren't you throwing dirt down? I've stepped up my ground attack and used it to suppress you! As a result, the archers on the ground shot arrows at the city tower in batches. Some soldiers were hit by arrows and died, and the city gate tower was once again in crisis. At this extremely critical moment, Shu Shanwei and Zheng Fu arrived with fresh troops. Although they had just climbed up from Wenrou Township, the skinny camels were bigger than horses. After all, they are battle-hardened generals, so they don't pay attention to the enemy's tactics at all. Shu Shanwei ordered the soldiers not to poke their heads out, and to let the enemy climb up, and wait until the enemy showed up before attacking. In this way, the enemy's archers would often shoot at their own soldiers by mistake, and the enemy's morale would be suppressed.
Shu Shanwei asked Zheng Fu and Qiu Xin to guard the city gate. He gathered his troops and prepared to launch a sudden attack on the enemies outside the city. Soon, the three thousand commandos were assembled, and without warning, the city gate suddenly opened. The cavalry in the city rushed out like wolves and tigers. The Yuli soldiers outside the city did not expect that the other side could counterattack, and they were suddenly in chaos. Shu Shanwei rushed into the enemy's formation and slashed and killed them. Seeing that the general was taking the lead, the soldiers also fought bravely to kill the enemy. Yuli's army could not hold on any longer. They began to retreat, and finally developed into a rout. Shu Danwei chased for dozens of miles and almost entered the territory of Yuli State, and then he stopped the pursuit.
This battle started without any warning, and was actually won without warning. Zhong Langyu was very happy. He held a banquet to entertain the meritorious soldiers.
"Everyone, this time we defended the city of Luo City, we displayed our majesty as Dayou. I will record your merits. I will report the names of the meritorious officers to the imperial court so that the imperial court can reward you!" Zhong Langyu said with a smile, holding a wine glass. .
Shu Danwei, Zheng Fu and Qiu Xin held wine glasses: "Thank you, Marshal!"
Zhong Langyu looked at the three generals with satisfaction: "Thanks to the three generals this time. Without the three, Luo City would have fallen today. So the three of you have made great contributions. I thank you, Commander!"
Qiu Xin chuckled: "Commander, we are not the biggest contributors to the defense of Luo City this time. The general feels that the biggest contributor should be the Princess. If the Princess hadn't led a group of people to give the enemy a fatal blow, we wouldn't have persisted. Until the moment General Shu arrives!”
Zhong Langyu waved his hand: "That's just a fool's errand. What kind of excrement is used to heat it? Oops! I'm ashamed to say it."
Shu Shanwei immediately retorted: "The commander-in-chief is wrong. As the saying goes, soldiers are impermanent and water is impermanent. The method that can defeat the enemy is a good method. Therefore, the princess must also have done a great job. When the commander-in-chief wrote the application form, he was very careful. Don’t leave out your name, otherwise we won’t agree.”
Zhong Langyu laughed loudly: "It must be certain, but how can she dare to compare her achievements with those of a few others? Only a few of them can be regarded as the heroes who turned the tide!"
Shu Danwei took a sip of wine: "Commander, don't praise us to the sky. In fact, we are all ashamed. The enemy troops have arrived at the gate of the city, and we are still... Hey! Commander, do you want that military order?" Change it!”
Zhong Langyu was about to talk about this, but when he saw Shu Danwei made it clear first, he just followed suit: "Yes! Yes! This defense battle also exposed many shortcomings in our army. Of course, I am the one who bears the greatest responsibility. The ridiculous military order of this commander should be abolished. I am announcing now that generals will not be allowed to go to brothels during duty hours in the future. They must stick to their posts, otherwise military law will be imposed!"
All the generals raised their hands in agreement. Originally, these are things that soldiers must abide by. The commander's request is not excessive at all.
