Chapter 356: Chemical Weapons

Seeing that Yelu Yu had more and more headaches, several bands of cavalry sent out to harass the villages, but they were beaten back by the cavalry of the autonomous region, and sometimes they were defeated by organized villagers.

From the mouths of the cavalry who fled back, it was learned that the cavalry of the autonomous region was equipped with advanced equipment and had a tough style, and the cavalry of the Jin State was definitely not an opponent when fighting alone. Moreover, the militia organized by the villagers of the autonomous region also has a strong combat capability, and they often use traps and stratagems to lure the Jinguo cavalry into an ambush circle and then eliminate them.

Slowly, except for sending some sentinels, Yelu Yu no longer dared to send a large number of rangers to attack. The 40,000 gold soldiers shrank together as much as possible to prevent the autonomous region team from attacking. However, the autonomous region team did not fight them, and the peace and quiet made Jin Bing forget what they were here for. In the past few days, Jin Bing was overjoyed when he heard that Yan Zongwang had surrounded Bianjing, and it seemed that he had not been waiting for the arrival of the second prince for a long time.

In the past few days, Jin Bing found several flying objects in the air, hovering high above their camp, and the arrows could not be shot at all. Many Jin soldiers gathered curiously to watch, which also attracted the attention of Yelu Yujian, and he and several generals repeatedly discussed it without conclusion. In the end, it was thought that it might be the favor of the gods, indicating that Dajin would successfully take over the Song Dynasty.

On this day, the sentry came to report, and a large number of foot riders approached them, and Yelu Yu saw the truth and waited in formation. He sent 5,000 infantry to take the lead, with 2,500 cavalry on each side to protect the two wings, looking for an opportunity to use cavalry to disrupt the formation of the autonomous region.

At one time, he was ready to use 10,000 steps to ride and fight hard with the autonomous region team. He thought that the autonomous region had tens of thousands of troops, and the first battle would kill his main force, and the second prince would have no ability to resist when he turned around and killed the autonomous region.

Proudhun and another Jin general each led 5,000 cavalry to fill the weakness at any time, and Yelu Yu led the Chinese army and the mobile team to command behind, and behind him stood 500 law enforcement officers, and those who retreated were killed on the spot.

The troops of the autonomous region were very strange, their cavalry were like sentry spies, and they turned around and left when they saw the golden soldiers. Yelu Yu saw that the Jin soldiers should not act rashly, it was obvious that they were luring the enemy, as long as the autonomous region team did not attack, they waited quietly.

Yelu Yu was worthy of being an experienced general, and if he sent troops to pursue, two cavalry divisions and two infantry divisions could charge the Jin soldiers at any time.

At this time, several more flying objects flew in the sky, and Jin Bing could see that there were people holding flags and making movements. Now Yelu Yu has figured out that where is this immortal favor, this is the flying object of the autonomous region to inquire about the news and command the team. He ordered the sharpshooters to shoot the flying machine down, but the bow and arrow couldn't reach it, and they could only watch.

The purpose of the autonomous region this time is to completely annihilate this golden army and clear away the worries of the autonomous region. After discussion, the cottage selected Lu Junyi as the main general, and a total of ten divisions were dispatched to surround this golden army. At the same time, many cavalry were sent to roam around the periphery to block the Jin soldiers who came to reinforce at any time.

Although the weather is a little cold today, there is no wind, and the autonomous region is taking advantage of this weather to conduct experiments, and they want to use this group of golden soldiers to test the poisonous smoke bombs of the autonomous region.

These shells and gunpowder were mixed with wolf venom, croton, arsenic * frost and other poisons, and after the explosion, people and horses could not open their eyes or breathe at all, and they would be poisoned and fall to the ground in an instant, losing their ability to resist. Then the infantry of the Autonomous Region rushed over with gas masks and killed the golden soldiers who were still able to resist. This kind of poisonous smoke bomb is most afraid of windy weather, and if the wind blows, it will cause your team to be injured by poisonous smoke.

The scouts on the hot air balloon constantly used the flag language to convey the information of the golden soldiers, and the liaison officers on the ground saw the information through the clairvoyant mirror, and then quickly transmitted the information to the Chinese army.

In two reasonable positions on both sides of the Jin soldiers, the two artillery battalions of the autonomous region had already set up their artillery and were just waiting for the order to open fire.

There were several artillery shots on the Jin soldiers' position, and a large amount of smoke was generated around the exploding shells, and the Jin soldiers who were affected immediately coughed repeatedly, unable to breathe and unable to open their eyes. A handful of golden soldiers began to run towards a place where there was no thick smoke, and the main general was afraid that they would disrupt the formation, so he scolded again and again to quiet the commotion of the golden soldiers.

This was just an artillery test firing, and after they adjusted the angle, the artillery fired in unison, and immediately thick smoke billowed from the golden position.

Jin Bing, who inhaled the smoke, threw his weapon, covered his eyes and nose and forced them not to breathe, but the feeling of suffocation made them have to inhale, but the terrible feeling of inhaling made Jin Bing worse than dead, and he could only run around like a blind man. The position was full of smoke, and no matter how fast the Jin soldiers were, they couldn't run out of the smoke area, so they could only scream and fall to the ground.

The smoke-wrapped cavalry was the end of the world, covering their eyes and nose with their hands, and at the same time, they could not control the tyrannical horses that had inhaled poisonous gas, and they fell off their horses one after another, and were trampled to death by the crazy horses. Second Chinese Network

Seeing this horror, the cavalry on the flank hurriedly fled, staring at the thick smoke in a daze with wide eyes in a safe place.

The shelling stopped, and the cavalry of the Autonomous Region immediately went out, and they killed the cavalry who had escaped from the smoke. These golden soldiers had just escaped from the clutches of death, and in their panic, they were impacted by the powerful cavalry of the autonomous region, and if they wanted to run, they could only burrow into the smoke again, but the golden soldiers would rather die than enter that place. As a result, the weak golden cavalry was swept away like fallen leaves, and then the cavalry of the autonomous region withdrew to standby.

At this time, the smoke in the air gradually decreased, and you could clearly see the half-dead Jin soldiers lying on the ground, no howling, no wriggling, dead silence.

Yelu Yujian, who had already retreated to Xiaobei Mountain, could only tremble silently, he only now understood why Wanyan Zongwang almost died in the hands of the autonomous region team, they have such a weapon, where can flesh and blood resist it, and he would not have taken the initiative to invite Ying to come to the Song Dynasty if he knew it.

Just when the whole Jin soldiers were shaking, the infantry of a division of the autonomous region was dispatched, wearing gas masks, carrying knives and guns and rushing to the position of the Jin soldiers, slashing and killing the Jin soldiers who still had a breath.

Jin Bing was even more frightened when he saw this strange costume, in their eyes, these soldiers were ghosts that jumped out of hell, and Jin Bing fled up the mountain to guard against it.

In the cottage, Yelu Yu sighed for a long time, and lost more than 10,000 soldiers in the first battle, which made the troops stretched. But the reduction of troops is not the most serious military situation, more than 20,000 people are crowded on the hill, and it is more than enough to defend the mountain, and the lack of morale is their biggest hidden danger. The generals did not have the courage to fight any further, they were afraid that the poisonous smoke would spread on the mountain again, or that there would be more powerful tricks against them.

Now Xiaobeishan is surrounded by regiments, they have no way to go to the sky and no door to enter the ground, and they can't even go down the mountain to ask for reinforcements, so they can only stay on the mountain and wait for death.

At this time, more than a dozen captured Jin soldiers returned to the mountain with a letter of persuasion, Yelu Yu couldn't cry or laugh after seeing it, he had always only persuaded others to surrender, but today he was persuaded by others to surrender. However, this letter of persuasion did make him conflicted, and surrender seemed to be the best choice now, but could he surrender? The family is in Jinguo, what will they do after surrendering? Let's put this aside, a Khitan general first surrendered to the Jin people to fight his motherland, and then surrendered to the Song people and then fought the Jin country, no matter how you look at it, there are people who can't lose everything. Do you not surrender? Is there only a fight to the death?

Proudhun, a true Jurchen man, feared that Yelu Yujian's promise to surrender would drag him into the circle of shame, so he strongly opposed it, and suggested killing these captives to increase morale.

Yelu Yu couldn't help but look at Proudhun with mocking eyes, killing people at this time is simply killing yourself, the enemy can give the captives a way to live, but you kill them, you think about whose morale you are adding. Therefore, Jerod agreed to fight to the death, but did not agree to kill.

Releasing the captives is to further demoralize the Jin soldiers, and even if Yelu Yu does not surrender to the death, his generals will not do their best. The pit had already been dug for the Jin soldiers before the attack, and Lu Junyi only wanted to end the battle faster, but now that the Jin soldiers did not surrender, it was time to use the designed move.

It turned out that there was a hidden path on Xiaobei Mountain, and the previous soldiers retreated from this thorny secret path, and the Jin soldiers were not familiar with the mountain when they first arrived, so they couldn't find it at all. Lu Junyi transferred the artillery to the bottom of the mountain, bombarded the mountain with artillery fire, and hoarded heavy troops under the mountain to prepare for attacking the mountain, and the eyes of the Jin soldiers were attracted for a while.

Yan Qing quietly led a team of five hundred people up the mountain from the secret path, each of them carrying grenades, repeating crossbows and short knives, and when the grenade explosion on the mountain sounded, it was the moment when the horn of attack sounded.

Jin Bing looked at the team under the mountain and trembled, their nerves were highly tense, and from time to time they looked back to see if their comrades behind them had run away, and felt that the danger was not from the bottom of the mountain, but from behind.

Sure enough, soon after, an explosion was heard on the mountain, and the guards of the mountain were so shocked that they got up and looked back, and then the artillery fire covered the mountain again, and the team under the mountain began to attack. How could the Jin soldiers, who had lost their courage, have the heart to fight, turn their heads and run backwards, although there are also many dangers in the back, but they will escape the temporary danger first.

The troops of the autonomous region quickly attacked Xiaobeishan, Puruhun was killed in battle, and Yelu Yu saw that many of the golden soldiers were taken prisoner. At this point, all the Jin soldiers who entered the autonomous region were wiped out, and Song Jiang began to work on the next step.

Since the aggressor has the courage to come, then we will break their courage and brand the heart of the aggressor, so that they will always remember that aggression comes at a price!
