Chapter 192: Conquering the Throne

After capturing the north gate, Qu Ping ordered the soldiers to set up four cannons on the city gate tower to prevent the Jin soldiers from coming back. Since Jin Wushu has prepared his pocket, he will not drill into it first, cool Jin Jun and let their passion cool down.

The Song army quickly came to report: "Marshal, General Liu and General Yue's express report has arrived!" ”

Qu Ping has his life first, and he must make an 800-mile urgent express report once a day to allow himself to comprehensively grasp the military situation in all aspects.

Qu Ping hurriedly took the express and looked at it carefully.

The all-out war had entered the third day, and Liu Guangshi's troops were stubbornly resisted by the Jin army at Xifengkou, and they could not attack it for a while; Yue Fei's troops were also blocked at Yanmen Pass, but he said that he had another plan and would break through Yanmen Pass within five days. Yang Zaixing's side has not yet made contact, and it is not known how his battle in Yunzhou is progressing.

At present, only Qu Ping has won here, and it is difficult for the other roads to ensure a stable victory, and there is even a risk of defeat.

Qu Ping knew that it was still too early to be proud and proud, and if the other roads could not cooperate with him, he would eventually become a lone army, and it would be difficult to keep the risk of falling and falling. Therefore, it is not a spring to stand alone, and it is necessary to blossom at each point in order to ensure victory in the all-out war against Kim!

On the second day, Qu Ping dressed up neatly early, went up to the city tower, and looked from afar, but there was no trace of the Jin army.

"General Han, what do you think?" Qu Ping asked.

Han Shizhong said: "According to the general, as the marshal said, the Golden Vulture must be hiding in the distance and opening its pockets, trying to emulate our tactics of besieging the Jin army at the South Gate. ”

"Yes, the pass is narrow, and our army will not be able to get out of the pass at all, and the strength will be much more limited." Han Shizhong said.

General Zhang Xian, Yue Fei's subordinate, recommended himself: "The last general is willing to lead a vanguard to disrupt the enemy's formation, and the marshal will then go out of the pass!" ”

Qu Ping affirmed Zhang Xian's bravery and fearlessness, and said: "There are still seventy or eighty thousand soldiers and horses in the Golden Vulture Technique, and if you go, you will die nine times for a lifetime!" ”

Zhang Xian fearlessly said brazenly: "If you can do a small part for me to repeat the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the last general is willing to be the one who opens the way, overcoming thorns and thorns, although he is still glorious in death!" ”

On the broad road, there must always be pioneers who take their bodies as the road and blood as the guide. General Zhang Xian's generous words greatly boosted the morale of the Song army.

Han Shizhong looked at Qu Ping and said, "Marshal ......"

Qu Ping patted Zhang Xian's shoulder and said movingly: "Okay, General Zhang is good!" General Zhang once stabbed the words 'loyal to the country' for General Yue, and now Yu Benshuai still remembers it vividly. Serving the country with loyalty is not only General Yue's certification, but also a portrayal of General Zhang. Zhang Xian listens to the order! ”

"The last general!"

"Order you to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses as the vanguard and go out to meet the enemy. Don't fight to the death. The road to war is still very long, and the imperial court still needs a strong man like General Zhang! Qu Ping said.

Zhang Xian said loudly: "The last general is ordered!" ”

Qu Ping continued to order: "Wang Zhiquan and Jiang Boyan take orders!" ”

"The last general!" Wang Zhiquan and Jiang Boyan said in unison.

"The Shenji Battalion and the vanguard troops went out together, the Shenji Battalion was in the center, and the vanguard guarded both sides, moving forward slowly. After discovering the enemy's traces, the Shenji battalion opened fire first, and waited until the enemy was 30 zhang away from the Shenji battalion before retreating, and the vanguard troops attacked. Ben Shuai and General Han then led the rear army out of the pass in turn. As long as our main forces are out of the customs and lined up in front, the Jin army will be defeated! Qu Ping said.

The generals understood, and each took his own command.

The Shenji Battalion and the vanguard troops were only two miles away from Guan, and the cavalry of the Jin Army really came quickly.

Within a range of two miles, the vanguard can only be counted out of the pass, and the large army behind cannot come out at all, like a turtle that has just stretched out its head and neck.

The cavalry of the Jin Army appeared in sight, and they were already five or six hundred meters away from the Song Army.

Fortunately, the fourteen cannons were already loaded with ammunition, and in the face of the vast Jin soldiers, they took a little aim, ignited the cannon, and the bombs flew into the cavalry corps of the Jin Army, one cannon and one big hole.

However, the Jin army's war horses had already covered their eyes and ears in advance, ignored or listened, and let the cavalry ride forward. In this way, the horses will not be frightened by artillery fire and will not be confused.

Where it was bombed, the war horse lost control, and the black eyes could not find the direction, which also caused a certain obstacle to the cavalry in the rear.

However, the soldiers and horses of the Jin army, which came from the rear, quickly filled the vacancy that had been blown up, and the war horses that had lost their cavalry were wrapped in the war horses that had lost their cavalry, and they attacked the Song army.

The Shenji Battalion had only finished firing the second round of shells, and the Jin Army's abducted horses were already only a hundred meters away. The Shenji Battalion did not have time to make a third round of attacks, so it had to retreat in an orderly manner.

The forward troops on both sides, under the leadership of Zhang Xian, bravely rushed towards the swept Jin army.

Zhang Xian gave an order, and he took the lead in leading the forward troops to rush towards the Jin army.

Like a bayonet, unstoppable.

Before the two armies could face each other, they first fired at each other indiscriminately.

The Song army had a crossbow in hand, so it was naturally slightly better.

However, the large number of golden soldiers immediately made up for the lack of weapons.

The two sides soon crossed over and converged and fell into a white-knuckle battle with real knives and guns.

The Song army pierced into the center of the Jin army like a spear, and the Jin army took advantage of the situation to wrap it up from both sides, and stretched out two tentacles like squid to grasp the retreating Shenji battalion.

The Shenji battalion had to protect the heavy artillery from retreating, and the speed was naturally slow. However, the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion are equipped with crossbows and grenades, and they are not afraid of the approaching of the golden soldiers. Keep your books in stock

Seeing that the Shenji Battalion was about to be bitten by the Jin army, a Song army rushed out of the north gate quickly, and the general intercepted the Jin soldiers, and the two sides fought.

The Jin soldiers were still going to continue the pursuit, but they had already entered the range of the four cannons that had been guarded on the city gate tower. The artillery aimed at eight or nine without leaving ten, and a few cannons blew back the approaching Jin soldiers.

At this time, the Shenji battalion had reached the city defense, and after the five rows of horses were rejected, the cannons were placed on the spot, aiming at the Jin soldiers who dared to approach.

The Song army that had just killed from the north gate just now just went to the middle, leaving both sides to the Jin soldiers. In this way, the Shenji Battalion can fire with confidence and will not accidentally injure friendly troops.

The Song army continued to output from the north gate, rushing straight towards the middle, and always maintained a tight formation to avoid being scattered by the Jin soldiers.

Although the Jin soldiers seemed to surround the Song army, the teams on both sides near the north gate were overwhelmed by the artillery, and they were in a dilemma for a while.

In the long run, Zhang Xian's vanguard death squad has been united with the Song army that rushed to the aid behind them, and the Song army that continues to pour out of the north gate will definitely pour out.

Song Jun was like a golden hoop stick that was getting longer and longer, deeply pierced into the ashes of the Jin army.

Wanyan Zongbi knew that if this continued, the 70,000 gold soldiers would inevitably be split from the middle by nearly 100,000 Song troops, and with the sharp firearms and crossbows of the Song army, they might not be able to get benefits. Stealing chickens does not make rice, and it becomes a classic case of failure.

Wanyan Zongbi thought to himself: "If your own headquarters is lost, then the Yanqing Mansion in the rear will be powerful, and if you lose Yanqing Mansion, the western states will also give up." What's more, with the loss of Yanyun's sixteen states, my good days may come to an end. ”

Therefore, after careful consideration, Wanyan Zongbi resolutely ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops, and after giving up 10,000 gold soldiers to fight to the death, he led the rest of his troops to fight and retreat. On the one hand, he ordered Yuanzhou to defend strictly, and on the other hand, he tried his best to retreat to Yanqing, hoping that the city defense he had operated for many years could block the attack of the Song army.

Qu Ping knew that Yan Zongbi had retreated after the completion of the Golden Vulture Technique, but the remnants of the Jin Army warriors who were hindered by the battle of the trapped beasts could not be pursued for a while, so they had to destroy the enemy in front of them first.

If you can run a monk, but you can't run the temple, Qu Ping will not try his best to chase Jin Wushu alone this time, because the ultimate goal of the Great Song Dynasty is to completely destroy the Jin Kingdom.

Nearly 100,000 Song troops poured out, and even the Golden Vulture was so frightened that they retreated, and it was only a matter of time before the remaining shrimp soldiers and crabs were eliminated.

Nearly in the evening, the last golden soldier finally fell in a pool of blood in the corpse mountain.

Juyongguan, after the vicissitudes of life, finally returned to the hands of the Great Song Dynasty.

Ju Yongguan asked from the bottom of his heart, Mother, do you still remember what I look like?

From the early hours of the morning to this day, a total of more than 30,000 Jin soldiers were destroyed, 7,050 soldiers were captured, and 8,000 horses were captured. The Song army suffered more than 9,000 wounds and more than 8,000 killed. In the end, the golden vulture took more than 40,000 people, and the number of people who escaped was not counted.

Qu Ping ordered the troops to clean up the battlefield, and then wrote a good news note, and sent it to the post station as soon as possible, and delivered it to the emperor as soon as possible.

After a short rest, on the second day, the troops continued to advance and attacked Yuanzhou.

I thought it would be another vicious battle, but I didn't know that after three rounds of indiscriminate bombing, the city gate was opened with a bang, and the military and political adults in the city disobeyed Yan Zongbi's order and took the initiative to go out of the city and surrender.

Because the prestige of the cannon is so terrifying, even after finishing Yan Zongbi's danger of Juyong Pass, he has not been able to stop the Song army from breaking through strongly, and where is the opponent of a mere Yuanzhou City.

Therefore, the military and political adults in the city discussed and discussed, on the basis of thinking about the people, thinking about the prospect of those who know the times as Junjie, and decided that it was the best choice for everyone to be happy.

These people dug their hearts and lungs to show their sincerity: "Everyone is a Han Chinese, a comrade with a strip of water, and in the future, I will definitely serve the Great Song Dynasty wholeheartedly." ”

Qu Ping entered the city, of course, he would not withdraw them immediately, but mainly the Song people, supplemented by these surrendered people, temporarily took over Yuanzhou. Then, while posting the list to calm the people, the cannon was erected on the castle tower to prepare for defense. Because next, it is not the time to attack Yanqing Mansion in one go, so we have to wipe out the Jin soldiers in the west and respond to Yue Fei and Yang Zaixing.

When the three forces converge in one place and twist into a rope, it will be a wave of invincible power.

But at this time, a bad sign surfaced, Wang Zhiquan reported to Qu Ping: "Marshal, after the consumption of the past few days, most of the shells have been used!" ”

"So fast? Ask the emperor to ask the Ministry of Industry to hurry up the construction, and if the war situation is delayed, they will be asked! Qu Ping said. If the cannon is not supplied, the battle will be protracted and difficult to fight.

"Yes!"

It is also understandable that the shells are consumed too quickly, mainly because Juyongguan is really difficult to fight, and if there are not so many shells bombarded in turn, I don't know how much time and how many soldiers and horses will be spent.

Qu Ping said: "For the rest, it shouldn't be a problem to attack Yanqing Mansion, right?" ”

"There are more than a hundred rounds left." Wang Zhiquan answered truthfully.

There are more than 100 rounds, and it is a little difficult to capture Yanqing Mansion. These are just shells that are more powerful than stones, not missiles.

"Looks like we're going to have to tighten our belts." Qu Ping said to Han Shizhong again, "General Han, please lead an army to the west to attack Ulzhou, and then continue west to pick up Yue Fei and take Yanmen Pass." The soldiers and horses of the Jin army in these states have gone to the front line to hold the pass, and the rear must be empty, and they can be captured. Only by taking these passes can our rear soldiers and horses in the Great Song Dynasty continue to meet the front line. ”

Finally able to show his skills alone, Han Shizhong was eager to try: "This general will take the order!" ”

Qu Ping said: "General Han can rest assured that there is Ben Shuai sitting in Yuanzhou and Juyong Pass, and it will be foolproof." ”

However, it was said that Yue Fei had been fighting with the Jin army at Yanmen Pass for a long time, and it was still difficult to conquer it, and he couldn't help but look at the map and frown. Yue Fei gestured horizontally and vertically across the map with his fingers, trying to find a magic weapon to defeat the enemy.

The general muttered: "Yanmen Pass is blocked by the golden soldiers, unless we can fly, the price paid for the assault is too great." ”

Yue Fei suddenly had an idea, although we can't fly in the sky, we can fly in the water! If there's water, we can swim!

Yue Fei patted the general's shoulder and said, "Ben Shuai has thought of a way!" ”

"What's the solution?"
