Chapter 015 - Soldier "Potential"
"Steady!"
"Steady!"
On the city wall, Dong Ping walked behind the solemn or pale soldiers, and the shouts continued to reach everyone's ears from his mouth.
And other generals of the Loyal and Righteous Army, such as Li Xiaochun, Xu Hu and others, also roared loudly. The veterans in the team are also boosting morale and calming the morale of the army.
"Be smart, don't show your head casually, lest you be shot by Fanzi!"
"Fanzi climbs the city wall, just like when he was training, just stab forward!"
"Look at your cowardice, Fanzi is also a human, one shot and one bloody hole, Lao Tzu doesn't know how many you killed!"
"A sky-shattering thunder can kill at least two, you are afraid of a ball!"
The presence of the officers and the fact that they took the lead greatly boosted the morale of these trainees, and you must know that most of them were only recruits for more than a month.
Standing behind the battlement wall, Xu San, like all the recruits, held a spear in his hand, staring at the golden soldiers who were roaring like a fierce god outside the city, with fine sweat on his forehead.
He looked up, looked at the miserable white sun above his head, took a deep breath, and clenched the barrel of the gun in his hand.
Today, when you raise your eyebrows, whatever you say, you have to kill more fans, defeat enough, and win Feihuang Tengda.
"Ready!"
"Thorn!"
On the city wall, hundreds of recruits stood up together, and at the same time raised their spears in their hands and stabbed them from the battlements.
Feathered arrows whistled like locusts, shooting at the shields and walls, "bangbang" rattled, and countless soldiers fell down screaming.
Countless golden soldiers climbing at the head of the city fell like dumplings, and countless golden soldiers were not afraid of death and injury, and roared and climbed up.
The huge cannon "creaked", and countless stones flew towards the city, smashed on the battlements and dirt bags, and also smashed many recruits.
"Shoot!"
The feather arrows and crossbow spears at the head of the city were like locusts, and within a range of three or four hundred paces, countless golden soldiers were shot to the ground, and people were turned on their backs everywhere, and several artillery carts were directly shot by the ballistas, crushing many golden soldiers around them.
"Thorn!"
Before the officer Xu San's roar began, the spear in the second stunned hand stabbed out, and a golden soldier was shot in the ribs, blood splattered, and fell from the ladder.
The second stunned could see clearly that the person was a real Han man, not a Jurchen man.
Just as he was stunned, a recruit next to him was hit by an arrow in the face, snorted, and fell to the ground, and the medical soldiers behind him hurriedly carried him down.
"It's all Hedong Yisheng Army with no eggs, I'm afraid of a bird!"
Xu San's iron armor was through, commanding the recruits on the city wall, and his brows furrowed again when he saw another group of golden soldiers coming up to attack the city.
In these fierce attacks for several days, the golden feather arrows and rolling stones on the city walls have reached their limits, but the grenadiers have never been used, in the words above, that is, they will never use firearms until the critical moment.
Xu San was just about to command the recruits to meet the enemy, and when he saw the one-armed soldiers in the crowd, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Second brother, why did you come up?"
The elder brother followed Deng Shixiong and others who repaired the city wall, and came to build the city wall, but he didn't expect him to give the city wall in a blink of an eye.
"I still have an arm, and I don't care about it these shitty days! Hurry up and do your business!"
Xu San had no choice but to stabilize his mind and shouted at the golden soldiers who were swarming outside the city wall.
"Ready!"
Seeing the countless Jurchen soldiers in the crowd of Jin soldiers, Dong Ping secretly took a breath, these dogs finally couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to go out in person.
"Pass the order, let the grenadiers get on!"
At his command, countless grenadiers went up to the city wall, all of them strong and strong, most of them veterans.
"Bomb dropping!"
Seeing countless golden soldiers gathered around the city wall, Dong Ping's voice trembled slightly, and the command flag in the flag officer's hand waved down heavily.
In the golden soldier array, Wanyan Yinshu could see the Song army's order flag waving at the head of the city, and his heart was inexplicably frightened.
"Pass! Pass!"
For a while, the entire north city wall was filled with gunsmoke, thick smoke was billowing, the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke and blood was disgusting, the horses neighed in front of the city wall, and the earth-shattering screams made the new troops on the city wall stunned and frightened.
In front of the entire city wall, it is already a Shura field in the last days, every explosion of the earth-shaking thunder, there are always some golden soldiers who are affected, broken iron pieces fly in the air, wantonly harvesting the names of the golden soldiers, those who were killed and injured by the earth-shaking thunder are all miserable, either the flesh and blood are blurred, or the arms and legs are broken, the bones are white, and countless wounded people are lying in a pool of blood, making a terrible cry that shocks the sky.
With just two rounds of earth-shattering thunder, the golden soldiers in front of the city wall collapsed, and they retreated like a tide, not even caring about the corpses of their wounded compatriots and comrades, and obviously lost the courage to fight.
"Pursue down the walls, and the grenadiers follow!"
The order was given quickly, without the slightest delay, and although they had only been trained for a month, the recruits were already well versed in military discipline, and they were led by the officers to descend the city walls, brandishing swords and guns, and rushing forward with shouts and slaughter.
The slow runners, as well as those who were wounded, were caught up in groups, and then they were thorned to the ground one by one, like a frenzy sweeping the stumps and leaves, rolling forward.
Those recruits, under the leadership of veterans, marched like a wall, whether they were alone or in formation, under their attack, they would soon be stabbed down, and in the blink of an eye, flesh and blood were blurred. Even those warriors in the army, once they were caught up, they couldn't last a few rounds, and they were directly stabbed by these spears.
Encountering the rushing cavalry, the grenadiers of the Song army swarmed up, and dozens of earth-shattering thunderbolts were thrown over, and they disappeared in an instant, and there was no enemy to resist.
Among them, there was a group of about six or seven hundred Jin soldiers, who were pursued by the Song army of more than 100 people, and as the Song army continued to chase forward, the number of these Jin soldiers became smaller and smaller, and finally only a few dozen people escaped.
Under the continuous impact of the Song army, they quickly rushed out of the 100-meter distance, and on top of this 100-meter distance, there were layers of corpses of Jin soldiers, not only the Han'er in Hedong, but also the Jurchen warriors.
"Wang Song is training soldiers, and he has such ability!"
Wanyan Yinshu can sit upright on the war horse, and his face is pale. These soldiers looked like recruits who had been training for months, but they could be so fierce on the battlefield, it was like taking medicine, which made him feel cold and scared in his heart.
If he knew that these recruits had only been training for a month, he would probably vomit blood and become unconscious.
The Song army seemed to know their shortcomings, they stood about two hundred steps away from the city wall, no longer pursued and killed, but slowly assembled, and then stepped forward and retreated.
The golden soldiers looked at each other, but no one stepped forward to chase after them, and in front of them was the shooting range of the opponent's crossbow bed and the divine arm bow, and their own artillery vehicles, in the round of fire just now, suffered heavy losses and had no combat power.
"Good!"
Dong Ping slapped the city wall, and his wrist ached faintly.
These recruits, after several days of bloody battles, can already be basically formed.
The officers and recruits on the city wall were cheering, but the golden soldier camp opposite was silent.
"Deng Daguan, do you think we can defend this city wall?"
Standing on top of the tattered city wall, looking at the city wall of Longde Mansion, which is less than four meters high and less than three meters wide, and the walls are all rammed with loess, Deng Wu couldn't help but shake his head.
In this small city with a circumference of less than twenty miles, it seems to be a little more difficult to carry the thousands of troops and horses of the Jurchens.
"How can you not hold it?"
Deng Shixiong's eyes widened, and his eyes were full of disdain.
"It's been so many days, and Fanzi hasn't succeeded! The old brothers on the mountain have all been transferred, and there are so many earth-shattering thunders, if you can't hold it anymore, you won't have a place to put your face!"
As if he had remembered something, he turned his head and said angrily: "How many times have I told you that there can only be one big official in the loyal army, and that is Xianggong." If you scream again, see if I don't smoke you!"
Deng Wu hurriedly apologized again and again, his eyes turned to the carts pulling stones in the city gate, and said with a wry smile: "This cement kiln building was built, but this object is always missing, plus this siege, I don't know when it will be complete?"
The raw materials are easy to say, the key is that now the two armies are fighting, the Jin soldiers have surrounded the city wall, there is no way to carry out production, and the reinforcement of the city wall has only stopped.
Deng Shixiong said categorically: "It's man-made, how much can be repaired, Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, without this city wall, the earth-shattering thunder in Lao Tzu's hand has become an ornament!"
In Lund Mansion, the loyal army gathered 3,000 veterans and more than 20,000 new troops, all of whom were stationed here, and in addition to repairing the city walls every day, they were also dealing with the Jurchens' attack.
After about half a month of work, there were two thousand veterans left, and five or six thousand new recruits.
Liang Xing and others' loyal and righteous society members were also organized into an army, the strong registered into the army, and the old and weak scattered back to the fields and were busy with spring ploughing.
Most of these new recruits have only received one month of training, walking in formations, carrying heavy cross-country loads, riding with guns, throwing bombs and blasting, and their daily training has never stopped.
However, these days, the food and firearms have been worn out too much, and they can no longer last for a few days.
Suddenly, there was a loud cheer on the city wall, and all the soldiers stood up and cheered loudly together.
Deng Shixiong and Deng Wu glanced at each other, and they both stood up and looked in the direction of the cheers of the army.
Under the wild shouting of the army, Dong Ping, Niu Gao and others were on the side of the ring, and Wang Song was in the center, smiling, waving to the sergeant on the city wall.
The place where Wang Song said instantly became a sea of joy, and all the sergeants were all red-faced and shouted loudly together.
"Wang Xianggong! Wang Xianggong!"
Dong Ping couldn't hide his excitement. Wang Song's coming, even if the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom is here, I am afraid that he will not be able to capture this low Longde Mansion City.
In the camp of the golden soldiers, Wanyan Yinshu was gathering soldiers to study the method of siege, and heard a tsunami on the mountain wall in the distance, and came out with his subordinates to look at the city.
Hearing the earth-shattering shouts of the Song army on the city wall, in the midst of the crowds of people on the city head, the figure who climbed high and looked far away, making people grit their teeth, sighed slightly.
The "momentum" of the soldiers is so indestructible that it is difficult to force it.
Besides, summer is coming, food and grass are scarce, and the casualties in the army are too large, it seems that there are only latent minions, endure humiliation, and come again one day.
