Chapter 1241: Breaking the City
Cavalry, the best thing is to chase down fleeing teams, especially defeated armies with their backs to the enemy.
Li Yong saw the scene of the dead soldiers of the Fu family army throwing down their weapons and running around with their heads hugged, how could he let go of such a good fighter?
"Continue to maintain the formation of the charge, left-hand to kill the ......" Li Yong's order was quickly passed on by the brass trumpeters, and then the originally somewhat loose team returned to the team again according to their respective formations.
This cavalry team is actually very easy to spill out, but the difficulty is that in the process of charging, it can also smoothly fight again as a team.
In other warlords' teams, even the Khitan Leather Room Army, which is known for its elite, cannot quickly reorganize the team after killing the formation.
However, the cavalry battalion of the Li Jiajun, with the cooperation of the copper horns, bamboo whistles, copper whistles, and flags of various departments, could be quickly returned to the system.
Strong organization, high discipline, action to obey command, not afraid of fighting evil battles, these are the four most brilliant characteristics of Li Jiajun!
On the command vehicle, Li Zhongyi clearly saw every joint attack of the soldiers of the cavalry battalion commanded by Li Yong, which was remarkable.
"Yes, yes, it looks like the drum has to be beaten hard." Li Zhongyi's emotion made Chu Xiong and Li Anguo look at each other, and no one dared to talk to each other.
Li Anguo couldn't understand, was Li Zhongyi praising Li Yong, or was he secretly referring to something?
Chu Xiong remembered Ma Wu's hideous and terrifying head, and Li Yong was forced to kill Ma Wu who instigated him to rebel in public, which was tantamount to cutting off his future rebellion.
Whether it was a real murder or a forced killing, in short, Li Yong slaughtered Ma Wu, who liked to gossip, and that was enough!
What Li Zhongyi wants is for Li Yong to slaughter Ma Wu in public, as for the reason, Li Yong knows it in his heart, let alone Li Zhongyi.
At the beginning of Fu Twenty's defeat, Fu Yanqing had already sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly ordered someone to put down the iron gate of ten thousand catties, so as not to prevent Li Yong from taking advantage of the chaos to enter the city.
However, the Wanjin Gate was lowered, which was equivalent to blocking the way of life for the dead soldiers under Fu Twenty. Li Yong commanded his cavalry, with a left hook and a right straight punch, killing the defeated dead soldiers, throwing away their armor and bleeding.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
"Open the door, open the door quickly......" The huge sound of slapping on the gate, mixed with the cries of the dead, was intertwined into a tragic song of defeat!
"Lord Wang, you are so ruthless, everyone is a robe......"
"Hurry up and open the door......"
"Lord, save the little ones......"
Li Yong's cavalry was getting closer and closer, and gradually squeezed the rout to the vicinity of the city gate, the purpose was actually very clear, to see if there was a chance to grab the door.
The artillery commanded by Li Yongtang, with more than 100 guns, bombarded the city wall intensively in three groups, making it difficult for the defenders' crossbowmen to concentrate on dealing with the Li cavalry that had already rushed to the city.
Li Yong wanted to continue the pursuit, however, Li Zhongyi, who had already seen clearly that the West Gate had lowered the 10,000-jin gate, came with a military order: Surrender the prisoners!
"Sons, shout together: Throw down your weapons, and those who surrender on their knees will not be killed......" Li Yong did not dare to disobey Li Zhongyi's orders, and hurriedly conveyed the military order.
The so-called dead soldiers are just gamblers, and since Fu Yanqing is unkind, they have no choice but to learn from the injustice.
If not now, but when?
The sound of throwing weapons at the ...... is like an infectious disease, spreading ten, ten, hundred, and thousand.
Li Yongtang sent someone to inform Li Yong and quickly take the prisoners down, leaving space for the artillery team to continue bombarding the city wall.
Li Yong ordered unhurriedly: "If you want to really live, the fact that Fu Yanqing deliberately put down the 10,000-jin gate and did not leave you a way to survive will all be revealed." ”
Under Li Yong's half-threat and half-inducement, the dead soldiers of the Fu family army who were lucky enough not to die broke open and scolded Fu Yanqing for being a ruthless and unrighteous villain.
After Li Zhongyi learned the news, he couldn't help but smile slightly, he really didn't misunderstand Li Yong, that kid was indeed a party barbarian with a bad stomach.
After Li Yong brought the prisoners down, the frequency of shelling on Li Yongtang's side obviously accelerated a lot.
The walls of the west gate of the Daimyo's Mansion were hit by an iron projectile every few breaths. The defenders on the city wall were also shaken to the ground, and their center of gravity was unstable.
Li Zhongyi clearly observed a new situation through the monoculars, the speed and density of the bow and crossbow counterattack on the wall of the Daimyo's Mansion were obviously much weaker than before.
Hmm, Li Zhongyi knows very well that the drama that Li Yong made just now obviously shook the military heart of the Fu family's army!
According to the art of war, Fu Yanqing's strategy of throwing away his pawn to protect the commander was originally understandable.
Instead of being cut off ten fingers, it is better to abandon one finger to protect the overall situation, in exchange for Li Zhongyi to be in Fu Yanqing's position, there are actually not too many good ways.
Of course, if it was Li Zhongyi, even if he had more casualties, he would have to take his own people back to the city.
In front of his own family, he abandoned his own people to the enemy, even if Fu Yanqing's approach was calm and wise, it was easy to hurt the fragile hearts of most soldiers.
"Someone, go and tell Li Yongtang, push all the 12-pounder guns to the front, and concentrate on bombarding the city gate hole at the west gate." Li Zhongyi paused slightly, and then added, "Let Li Yongtang rest assured, the Fu family army will not dare to go out of the city to harass again." ”
Morale can only be boosted, but not vented!
Fu Yanqing threw all the carefully selected dead soldiers to Li Yong, in the short term, who still has the heart to participate in the counterattack out of the city?
Li Yongtang had long wanted to push the 12-pounder cannon up, he was fighting on the front line, and the rate and frequency of fire of the bows and crossbows in the city were several times lower than before, how could he not know?
Soon, the 12-pounder gun was pushed to a position about 400 paces from the city gate hole, and positions were placed in three rows.
Li Zhongyi saw Li Yongtang's arrangement clearly through the monoculars, and he couldn't help laughing: "The time to break the city is not far away!" ”
Learning from the war and summing up the special experience of the armed forces during the war is a practical method that Li Zhongyi highly admires.
The power of the 12-pounder cannon was indeed extraordinary, and when fired from a distance of four hundred paces, hitting any part of the city wall, it would smash a huge crater.
The more Li Zhongyi observed, the more he felt that the city would definitely be broken today, so he simply sat back on Maza, drinking tea while giving Li Anguo a problem.
"Zhengqing, let me ask you, why didn't Fu Yanqing dare to send people out of the city to harass our army's artillery battalion?" Li Zhongyi took a sip of tea soup comfortably, and asked Li Anguo with a smile.
Li Anguo touched his head, and when he was about to try to explain, he suddenly heard a huge cheer from the front line, "The city gate is broken, the city is broken, ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories......"
"Long live my emperor!"
"Long live my emperor, long live it!"
