Chapter 480: Siege, Defend, Shoot

In the early morning, when the faint golden light of the morning sun sprinkled on the city wall of Suzhou, the soldiers in charge of vigilance found the Tartar military camp in the distance and began to mobilize, and a group of people with the old and supporting the young stood in front of the camp of the Han army in a panic.

The soldier who was watching out pulled out the gong on his waist and struck it rapidly. Minzhuang, who stayed up all night to strengthen the city wall, had just fallen asleep for a long time, when he heard the sound of gongs, rubbed his sleepy eyes, grabbed the spear beside him, and ran quickly to the edge of the city wall.

However, although these people are determined to defend the city, they are some new soldiers after all, and there is some chaos on the city wall in an instant, but fortunately, the defending officers are still some veterans who have been on the battle array, and under their supervision, the Song army has established a crooked defense line on this city wall.

Gao Jun Lord has been worried about the opposite Tartar siege in the past few days, he didn't go down the city wall at all, and has been asleep on the city tower, at this time he heard the sound of the gong, opened the window and looked out, as far as the line of sight could see, only to see the main camp of the opposite Tartar wide open, a team of Tartar troops put out, and the Han army in front of the army, after seeing the main camp issued the banner of attack, waved the leather whip and spear in his hand, and collected the people, towards Suzhou City!

However, although the rice fields outside the city were drained during the attack a few days ago, the ground was still muddy in the humid weather in the south, and the people stumbled when they walked, and they couldn't move at all.

At this time, the main camp of the Tartars issued a banner to urge the attack, the Han army officers behind the people, seeing this flag, knew that the master was in a hurry, and did not dare to drive people so slowly, after the officer's order, the soldiers pulled out their waist knives and began to chop the people behind them, these people are people around Suzhou City, although from time to time I heard how the Tartars were cruel, and how the surrendered Han army helped to abuse, but after all, the war was far from themselves, and the big guy was just a conversation after dinner.

But now, when these people faced the swords of their former compatriots behind them, the panicked people, regardless of the old and weak, ran forward one by one, and the old people and children who had lost their support were trampled to the ground by the same clan behind them, and the people who fell to the ground screamed two times at first, but as more and more soles of their feet stepped on, blood began to flow from the mouths of those who fell to the ground, and slowly there was no sound......

The soldiers on the city wall, looking at the screams of the people on the plain, bowed their heads one by one, and did not dare to look, for fear that they would see the people they knew from among these people, and they were also afraid to see the cries of those people who were dying and asking for help for themselves.

The young and strong young man had already come to the outside of the city wall at this time, and shouted at the Song soldiers on the city wall, "Open the city gate, let us in, we are all the people around Suzhou, the good people of the Great Song Dynasty, and ask the soldier grandfather to save me."

There are also those who are familiar with the soldiers in the city, and they even shouted at the soldiers they know, "Second Brother Geng, Second Brother Geng, you know me, let me in."

The soldiers on the city wall are not the same as a few days ago, and although they can't bear it at this time, no one plans to go down to open the city gate. Gao Jun Lord looked at the people under the city, and a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes, these people who led the troops had killed people and robbed money, they were scattered by the Jurchens at the beginning, and they also made cameo appearances as robbers, but they really bought you to so many people, and asked them to order the slaughter, and they were really ruthless.

But to achieve this position, it is unbearable, after the high army sovereign weighs the pros and cons, he can only put it aside, and order the deputy general next to him, "make people shout to those people, let them bypass Suzhou City, the defenders in the city will not attack them, if they still stay in front of the city wall, they will not be spared!" ”

The adjutant general bowed down and shouted at the people outside the city. At this time, the people in the city also knew that if they stayed here, when the two armies fought, they would be afraid that it would be difficult to save their lives. At present, many people began to detour to the sides outside the city.

But as soon as everyone turned around, a rain of arrows came not far away, and seeing several people being shot by bows and arrows, the crowd stopped, and the Han army behind the crowd shouted, "Go back, give me back, and those who retreat and flee will be killed!" ”

The crowd was chaotic for a while, and then a group of people behind, carrying siege equipment, began to lean towards the city wall of Suzhou under the drive of the signing army, the defenders of Suzhou City, looking at the people who were getting closer and closer, were unbearable, and the archers shouted at the people under the city, "You run eastward, we will cover you!" ”

As he spoke, the archers began to draw their bows and shoot towards the signing army in the distance, both sides were equipped with divine arm bows, but the strong soldiers in Suzhou City had the advantage of height, and the range was much farther than that of the signing army, but the archers of the signing army were suppressed, and the people saw this and ran towards the east. However, under the kicking of the officers behind him, the archers began to shoot towards the city wall, and the people on the city wall were shot a lot in a blink of an eye, and the people under the city were gathered by the signing army and rushed to the city of Suzhou with a ladder.

"Archer prepare!" The archers on the city walls, under the orders of the officers, pointed their bows at the people under the city.

"Shoot!"

Under the order of the officer, the bow and arrow were shot at the people under the city, and in the blink of an eye a piece fell to the ground, and the bed crossbow was hammered by the wooden stick in the hands of the archer, and the arm-thick crossbow arrow pushed the people through the siege vehicle and nailed it to the ground......

The army lord stood on the city tower, watching the people who kept falling under the city walls, and watched the blood stain the land outside the city red...... The adjutant general on the side couldn't help but step forward, "Military master, if the time comes, those civilian officials will hold the adults accountable for shooting civilians......

Lord Gao waved his hand, "Defend the city well, if those civil officials make noise, I will bear it in the future,"

The lieutenant general shook his head, "Military master, this crime is still up to me." As he spoke, he glanced at several lieutenant generals around him, and the lieutenant generals around him stepped forward and caught the high military master

"What are you going to do? Do you want to rebel? Even if you lock me up, this crime is not something that a little lieutenant of yours can bear! Also, do you know what a felony it is? The military master Gao naturally knew what his subordinates wanted to do, and shouted loudly.

However, his lieutenant generals were silent, and carried the master of the high army into the city tower.

"Huh" The deputy general took a breath, he glanced at Suzhou City, and smiled bitterly, he didn't know the charge of shooting civilians, but if the military master Gao was there, his wife and children and the brothers who died on the city wall, they could have a good result, if the military master Gao was gone, they would not be able to defend the military exploits of Suzhou!
