Chapter 421: Ambush Soldiers

One by one, the stones smashed heavily into the city, which brought great pressure to the Jin army guarding the sheep bone village, and the soldiers at the head of the city suffered heavy casualties. It is obviously not a good sign to go on like this, the only good thing is that the drawbridge is raised, and the Han army cannot kill it, otherwise, the Jin army will not be able to hold it for even an hour.

Seeing that the defeat and casualties at the head of the city were too great, Huang Dabiao came down and the soldiers withdrew from the city, and the Han army couldn't come anyway, but such a choice was tantamount to giving up defense and being beaten passively. It is only a matter of time before the city is broken, and defending the city is no longer called defending the city, but waiting for death.

The trebuchets bombed non-stop during the day, and the trebuchets did not rest at night, and the Jin soldiers in the sheep bone village couldn't sit still, they didn't want to die, but if they continued like this, they were doomed to a dead end.

To stay is to wait for death, and only to escape.

Escape, these Jin soldiers are not good birds, they have to cut the drawbridge, and then escape. This made Huang Dabiao very headache. If the drawbridge is destroyed, then you become a sinner. After the Han army entered the Dulongling Military City, the slaughter of the city would become a reality, and all their families would be executed.

What to do? Huang Dabiao was a little difficult, but at the most critical moment, he still came up with his own plan. It is better to die in battle than to be a sinner in history. Nothing can be said to give the Han army an interface to slaughter the city.

Huang Dabiao won the Jin Army's request, but this guy still took out gold and silver to bribe Jin Jun, hoping that the other party could say a few more good words for himself. After all, he is destined to die here, and his family is still in the Dulongling Military City, and he still needs to live.

After all, the drawbridge was lit by a fire, and after seeing this fire ignite, the Jin army withdrew.

Seeing that the drawbridge was ignited, Zhang Linghui was furious, he didn't expect Huang Dabiao to be so stubborn and stubborn, so he ordered to strengthen the attack.

Zhang Linghui didn't expect that something had happened, the lighted suspension bridge slowly fell, and these Liaodi Han'er who guarded the sheep bone village gave up defending the city and directly opened the gate to extinguish the fire.

Half of the drawbridge was eventually burned down, but the Han army still fought very hard to enter the sheep bone village.

Huang Dabiao finally chose to commit suicide, and the remaining 100 or so people surrendered.

After taking the sheep bone village, the next step is to forcibly attack the Dulongling Military City, at this time, Zhang Linghui knew that there was no strategy, only a tough attack, no matter how indestructible the Dulongling Military City was, it had to be taken down.

Huang Dabiao died, and this guy's younger brother Huang Erjun told Zhang Linghui that the Dulongling Military City is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is not without any shortcomings, that is, there is a lack of water in the military city, and most of the buildings are made of wood, and the effect will be very good if attacked with fire.

The situation of the Dulongling Military City is more special, that is, there are too few big stones in Dulongling, they are all small stones, which are not suitable for construction, and the stones used to build the military city are transported from hundreds of miles away, in this case, the buildings in the military city can only be made of wood, and there is no way to get things.

Zhang Linghui said to Huang Erjun: "Burning the Dulongling Military City means that the soldiers and civilians inside will be burned to death, and your family members will also be burned to death, in that case, your brother will not die in vain." ”

"Adults don't know, there is a small village behind the military city, and all the families of the signing army live in the village, even if the Dulongling military city is ignited, it will not hurt the people. There were only 1,000 gold troops in the entire military city, and there was no one else. ”

Dulongling Military City, this city is built in the middle of the mountain, two zhang high from the ground, it is definitely easy to defend and difficult to attack, but if you don't take this military city, it is 100% impossible to pass through Dulongling.

Fire attack, it's not that simple, this city is too high, the effect of trebuchets throwing fireballs is too poor, if you want fire attack, you must attack the city to have an effect. The Jin army also realized this, so they laid heavy troops at the head of the city.

The Jin army had 30,000 with its predecessors, and the Han army had 30,000, which can be said to be thirty to one, although this military city was easy to defend and difficult to attack, Zhang Linghui still ordered a strong attack.

The trebuchets were assembled in front of the military city, and there were still two hundred steps away from the military city, which was a safe distance, and the Jin army could not attack these catapults at all.

The Jin army defending the city knew that it could not attack the other party, so it did not attack, but waited for the Han army to attack the city. They are all Jurchen warriors, there is no such thing as surrender, all they can do is fight to the last moment.

The Dulongling Military City is built on the mountain, only frontal defense, which is the most powerful amount for the defending side, as long as it is to hold the main gate, it can ensure that nothing goes wrong, but for the attacking side, it is quite a headache.

Attack, with the sound of drums, a series of trebuchets began to throw stones to the city, due to the problem of distance and height, most of the stones can not be thrown at the head of the city, trebuchets attack, more is cover, the three thousand Han army began the first wave of attack, the first row of soldiers sprinted with shields held high, the soldiers of the second row followed, and the soldiers of the third row attacked the bow and arrow to suppress the Jin army at the head of the city.

The huge mobile arrow tower slowly pushed towards the battlefield, this mobile arrow tower is the unique siege equipment of the Han army, the top arrow tower is not a soldier shooting arrows, but a ballista, this kind of ballista fireball, fast speed, long range. Once these fireballs hit the city, they would catch the defenders off guard.

The Jin army defending the city saw this kind of arrow tower as high as several times for the first time, and there was no more way to deal with it for a while, so they could only keep shooting arrows and archery, but this kind of attack was not the slightest threat to the mobile arrow tower.

The mobile arrow tower is too heavy, and the advance speed is very slow, but many soldiers are hiding behind, shooting arrows at the Jin army at the head of the city, this kind of sudden cold arrow, the threat to the Jin army is great.

Although the moving arrow tower was a potential threat, the Jin army still suppressed the Han army's attack with crossbow arrows. Half an hour passed, and countless Han soldiers died, but they still couldn't attack the city, which greatly increased the confidence of the Jin army in defending the city, and identified the confidence in defending the city.

The attacking side will always have more ways than the defending side, and this is the biggest benefit of the offense. When the mobile arrow tower is only less than five zhang away from the city wall, it begins to really exert its might.

The ballista finally kicked off the offensive.

Fireballs that were not much smaller than watermelons were hit at the head of the Jin army, although the Jin army had long been prepared for the Han army's fire attack, and the city had already been cleaned up, but it was ignited a little, and the soldiers were still in a hurry.

The Han army took advantage of the chaotic moment of the Jin army to launch a new round of attack, this round of attack, more rapid, Zhang Hui and his wife led the army to charge at the front.

The two sides started a fierce bloody battle on the city wall, the hook at the front end of the ladder was put on the head of the city, and soldiers began to attack the head of the city, and the two sides stood on the head of the city to fight bloodily, and the two sides killed inseparable.

After the first echelon went to the city, they were entangled with the Jin army, and at this time the second echelon came up, and they brought assault rifles, as well as fire oil, high liquor and rockets, with the purpose of setting the military city on fire.

The Jin soldiers immediately realized the crisis, and they fought back like mad dogs, suppressing the attacking Han army to the death, and the two sides fought bloody battles at the head of the city, and the killing was inextricable.

The city head was inextricably killed, and at this time, the advantage of the Han army's large number was fully exerted. While the Jin army was at the head of the city, a small detachment rushed to the city gate under the cover of other soldiers and blew it open with gunpowder.

With a deafening loud bang, the gate of the Dulongling Military City was blown open, and the Han army poured into the city like a tide and fought fiercely with the Jin army defending the city.

The Han army did not want to occupy this military city, but to destroy it. When the Han army entered the city, they began to set fire to the city.

The flames were blazing, which indicated that the overall situation of the bloody battle in Dulongling Military City had been decided, and no matter how strong and tenacious the Jin army was, it could not change the fate of being completely annihilated.

The Dulongling military city was finally burned down, 1,000 Jin soldiers were killed, and the Han army suffered more than 3,000 casualties, although this casualty was large, but it was acceptable for Zhang Linghui. After all, there is only a small military village left in front of him, and as long as he takes it down, his task will be completed.

When victory was in sight, Zhang Linghui planted a big heel, this small military village is easy to defend and difficult to attack, not to mention, the terrain is narrow, the siege equipment can not be opened, and the tactics of crowds can only be used.

The military village is densely packed with entities, it can be said that the Han army stepped on the corpse to kill it, the most fatal time, the Jin army actually buried explosives, fire oil, a fire ignited this military village, and finally caused 2,000 casualties of the Han army, which is indeed a heavy price.

30,000 infantry against 5,000 well-trained Jin cavalry, this battle is very difficult to fight, especially in the flat open land, this is a tough war, it is not a stupid infantry to the death of the cavalry, it has to be fought a little smarter, a little more clever. Zhen Wuchen knew that his task was heavy, and he also knew what World War I meant.

Zhen Wuchen wants to make full use of the Han King's cavalry and use the musket team, and this battle must not be suppressed and fought by the Jin army, otherwise it will definitely be defeated.

The flat terrain is conducive to the sprint of the cavalry, which is extremely unfavorable for Zhen Wuchen, and digging a trench on the flat terrain is relatively simple, and it almost does not take much effort.

Digging a trench is not too complicated, but digging a trench is equivalent to being beaten passively, at most, it is to hold the battle position and not be crushed by the Jin army, but if you want to defeat or even annihilate, it is absolutely impossible.

Zhen Wuchen didn't want to hold the position even if he completed the task, what he wanted was to completely annihilate the 5,000 gold army, so the entire layout of this battle had to be thought about.

30,000 soldiers are divided into four teams, the first team of 3,000 people, standing in front, arranging antlers, rejecting horse stakes to organize the Jin army to sprint, as long as the Jin army sprint without speed, then the advantage of the cavalry is not so strong, and the lethality of the infantry can be revealed.

The second team of 5,000 people, all sword and shield soldiers, they were behind the trench, even if the Jin army rushed over, the speed was completely slowed down, and it was basically a head-to-head duel. To put it bluntly, hand-to-hand combat is unfolding in this area, behind them is a thousand musketeers, this group of soldiers is lethal, but the defense is poor, even worse than the lethality of the archers, and the sword and shield soldiers are more protective.

The third team of 10,000 people, these 10,000 people are mainly pikemen, supplemented by archers, mainly the main force of the strangled Jin army. Whether they can withstand it will determine whether they can annihilate the Jin army this time.

The fourth team of 12,000 people did not appear on the battlefield, but hid, and after the Jin army rushed in, they would cover up and kill the past, this time Zhen Wuchen wanted not to defeat the Jin army, but to annihilate the five thousand Jin cavalry, showing the emperor of the Han Dynasty that Zhen Wuchen was the most suitable person to command this team.

No matter how it is arranged, 30,000 infantry is not enough to completely annihilate the 5,000 iron cavalry of the Jin State, in this case, Zhen Wuchen found the Han Wang's cavalry to control Pan Yu, hoping to cooperate with the war, not just military deterrence.

After listening to Zhen Wuchen's plan, Pan Yu said to this guy: "Ten thousand Han kings rode to participate in the battle, but there is a premise, that is, on the premise of defeating the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom, not to help you fight." In a word, 10,000 Han kings will be thrown into the battlefield, and as for whether to participate in the war, it depends on whether you can withstand the impact of the Jin army. ”

"I, Zhen Wuchen, is a blood-stained battlefield, and I will also prove that I am a qualified Han army, and I am willing to fight for the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, and I will be shrouded in horse leather."

"Your Majesty, I am very optimistic about you, among the 170,000 resentful troops, your team is the most effective and the best in tactical discipline. The Son of Heaven is the jade-faced god of war in the past, and he will not bury a general, nor will he allow anyone to have a vegetarian meal. The Great Han Iron Cavalry still has to conquer Western Liao, and there are still many battles to be fought, and there is a time for you to prove yourself. ”

Before setting out on the expedition, Cao Yu received an audience from His Majesty, and among the many tasks he explained, one of them was to inspect Zhang Linghui and Zhen Wuchen, both of whom were rare generals. Zhang Linghui's group is resourceful and strategic, Zhen Wuchen is good at leading troops, the soldiers under his command are strictly disciplined, and Qiu has not committed any crimes, both of whom are the focus of investigation.

With 10,000 Han King cavalry participating in the battle, Zhen Wuchen believed that he would be able to completely annihilate the 5,000 Jin Guo Iron Cavalry, of course, he also knew that it was a vicious battle, so he made a careful layout.

The 5,000 Jin cavalry who came to the aid of Chaoyang City were originally stationed in Shuyang Town, and came to the rescue when Chaoyang City was attacked by the Han army.

The commander of the zero head is called Chadie Erhu, this guy is the son-in-law of Wanyan Xiyin, and he is a brave and warlike general, if he is not short-tempered on weekdays, he loves to drink and make mistakes, he would have been promoted to the commander of ten thousand horses, although he has not been promoted, the five thousand cavalry under him are still the iron cavalry.

Grumpy, does not mean that there are no brains, this time back to Chaoyang City, destined to encounter an ambush, this is normal, this time Cha Die's two tigers are careful in every way, for fear of ambush, you must know that at this moment, the Jin country is not more than before, in the face of the Han army's attack, in this case, once defeated, the consequences are very serious.

There was no ambush along the way, and when they came to a flat place, they encountered an ambush, and in this case, the two tigers did not care, and the five thousand cavalry lined up to attack.
