When the night gradually receded and the sun shone all over the land, the drums of the Liao army shook the sky, which was a signal that the Liao army was going to launch a general attack.

Immediately after that, a sharp shout came from the city wall of Fuzhou: "The enemy army is coming!" Then the bell rang, Zhe Keshi stood at the head of the city, and he said to Chen Ang: "Chen Zhizhou, you hurry in, next, I'm afraid there will be a tough battle to fight." ”

Chen Ang had also seen the Liao cavalry swarming from the Liao camp at this time, and from a distance, it looked overwhelming, Chen Ang subconsciously asked: "How many people did the Liao army dispatch this time?" ”

Zhi Keshi's face was heavy, and he said: "Looking at this posture, the number of cavalry is tens of thousands. ”

It has been too long since there has been such a big battle between Song and Liao, Chen Ang stood at the head of the city, facing such a group of men and horses under black pressure, he only felt that his legs trembled a little, these cavalry were covered with armor all over his body, including the horses, and the faces of people and horses were shrouded in it, so that in the face of the bows and arrows of the Song army, they could be at ease.

The two armies are facing each other, only small-scale battles will appear in front of the battle, and the binomial is now a large-scale national war, which is not needed, and the goal of the Liao army is to break through the city of Fuzhou, kill all the Song troops inside, and rob the women and treasures inside, so as to take revenge on the alliance between Song and Jin.

"Archer prepare!" Zhe Keshi gave an order, his eyes were firmly fixed on the Liao army that was coming, and he was inevitably a little nervous in his heart, five hundred steps...... 300 steps...... Two hundred steps, "Shoot the arrow!" Zhe Keshi yelled.

The rain of arrows overwhelmingly shot towards the Liao army, the distance of two hundred steps, it was still a little far, the Liao army didn't even put up a shield, so it rushed forward without care, the arrow fell on the body of the Liao cavalry, making a crisp metal impact sound, but it also lost its power, and did not cause any substantial damage to the armored Liao cavalry.

The Song army hurried to take the bow and pull the arrows, and then the second round of arrow rain poured down, and the Liao cavalry was less than a hundred steps away from Fuzhou City at this time, and the Liao general shouted: "Stand up the shield!" ”

All the Liao cavalry immediately took off the shield from the side of the war horse, held it above their heads, and the rain of arrows hit the shield and were bounced out, only a few lucky arrows shot into the Liao cavalry, causing little damage to the Liao army.

Chen Ang couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw that the Liao army was unscathed under the first two attacks of the Song army, and said, "Is the Liao army so brave? ”

Zhi Keshi's face was serious, and when he heard what Chen Ang said, he nodded and said: "These are the elites of the Liao army, according to the spies, this time the leader came to the famous general Yelu Dashi of the Liao State, and this battle is probably not easy." ”

After the two rounds of crossbow arrows of the Song army, at this time the Liao cavalry was less than 100 steps away from the city of Fuzhou, and the distance of 100 steps, the archers of the Liao army could already shoot arrows towards the city wall. ”

These people who came to attack the city of Fuzhou were indeed the elite troops of the Liao State, they held shields while shooting arrows, arrows flew up, and some of the Song soldiers who reacted slowly or blocked the unfavorable Song soldiers were hit by the arrows, and suddenly there were screams.

"Song Gou, hahaha, open the door and surrender quickly, otherwise I will kill you all!" When the soldiers of the Liao army saw the Song army being hit by an arrow, they couldn't help but shout and curse excitedly.

Zhi Keshi's face was serious, the Liao army's stone thrower had not yet been used, but now that the Liao cavalry had come to the city, he always felt that the Liao army had some conspiracies mixed in.

Chen Ang was a little anxious at this time, and said to Zhi Keshi: "General Zhe, hurry up and use the bed crossbow, the Liao cavalry has already called, and it will be too late if you don't need it." ”

The bed crossbow is a sharp weapon of the Song army to defend the city, the crossbow arrow is full of the thickness of the bowl, and it takes several soldiers to open it together, and the lethality is huge, but this thing also has a fatal shortcoming, that is, it is too clumsy, inconvenient to carry, and is generally directly fixed on the city wall.

When Zhi Keshi heard what Chen Ang said, he hesitated a little, but Chen Ang here couldn't wait to give an order: "Pass the order, and give these Liao troops a bed crossbow!" ”

The power of the bed crossbow is about the same as the cannon of later generations, "bang bang bang bang ......" a few sounds, more than ten crossbow arrows shot a huge sound, several Liao troops rushing to the front are scolding, at this time huge crossbow arrows shot over, and it happened that the Liao cavalry even wore people and horses together.

The screams of the men and horses were very terrible, and even the Song soldiers on the city wall felt a chill down their spines when they heard it, and the offensive of the Liao army was also stagnant, and then they slowly retreated.

Chen Ang was happy to see the Liao cavalry retreating, and said: "This is the deterrent power of the bed crossbow, no matter whether it is killed or injured, this misery alone can make the Liao people stop." ”

The momentum of the Song army also became high because of the retreat of the Liao army.

"Grandson, come again!"

"Drafted mother, you have the ability to continue to rush forward, look at your shield is powerful, or our bed crossbow is powerful!"

“……”

At the head of the city, the shouts and scolding of the soldiers of the Song army were endless, but Zhi Keshi did not think that the Liao army would withdraw so easily, this time it was the elite division of the Liao army, how could it be defeated so easily.

It seems to confirm the speculation of the fold and the suitability, in the ranks of the Liao army, the trebuchet began to be slowly pushed up, the ancient siege of the city, this trebuchet is a sharp weapon like a bed crossbow, the huge stone is thrown out by the trebuchet, that is, a stone bomb.

However, this time the Liao army was obviously prepared, and they did not directly push out the stone thrower at the beginning, its purpose, Zhi Keshi's eyelids jumped, and he couldn't help but look at the bed crossbows on the city wall.

Stone cannonballs began to fly towards the city wall of Fuzhou, and sure enough, as expected, the target of the Liao army this time was those bed crossbows on the city wall.

"Oh no, it really hit the plan!" Zhe Keshi shouted, but at this time it was too late, and there was no way for the bed crossbow to move, so Song Jun could only watch as the thrown stones smashed the bed crossbow.

Chen Ang also knew that he was in trouble at this moment, he didn't know anything about military affairs, but at this time, he wanted to command indiscriminately, but this time he buried more than ten bed crossbows.

Without the threat of bed crossbows, the offensive of the Liao army was launched again, and the Liao cavalry once again swarmed in, but this time the Song army did not have the suppression of bed crossbows.

Chen Ang looked at the Liao cavalry who were swarming again, and suddenly his face was bitter, and he said to Zhi Keshi: "General Zhe, I suddenly feel a stomachache, so I went to the toilet first." After saying that, he ran away.
