"Boom-"

Centurion Wang Fu jumped on the ice, he bowed his body like a cat, carefully tested the thickness of the ice under his feet, and then beckoned, and more than fifty Han soldiers disemcame. When the ship put the man down, he put away the plank and slowly rowed it open. The uneven thickness of the sea ice is full of traps, and walking around the ice at night without the guidance of a guide is almost like seeking death. The Han army curled up, holding their blades in their arms and waiting.

It wasn't long before footsteps could be heard on the ice in the distance. The guide beckoned to the Han army, and Wang Fu was the first to stand up, and the rope around his waist led the Han army behind him, one after the other, carefully following the guide on the ice until he came ashore. The beach was already dark and crowded.

"What battalion are you?"

Wang Fu hurriedly said: "Wangtianzhai, General Liu's subordinates." As he spoke, he looked around. More than 500 brothers came to Wangtianzhai this time, and the capital supervisor Liu Baohu took his own soldiers to get off the boat first. "Wangtianzhai, well, the thirty-seventh battalion," the questioner pointed to the east and whispered, "Over there, follow me." After speaking, he led Wang Fu and them over, and the more than 300 Han troops from Luzhou who arrived first squatted on the ground.

Wang Fu was about to step forward to report, but Liu Baohu waved his hand at him and pointed to the ground. Wang Fu hurriedly lowered his voice and motioned for the brothers behind him to squat down together. Liu Baohu nodded approvingly, and then turned to look at the movement on the shore. Throughout the winter, Suzhou Guannan was not harassed by the Han army in any way, so the vigilance of the Liao army in Guannan was also reduced to a minimum. On the beach, many Han soldiers shivered from the cold, and the Liao soldiers on patrol were even more reluctant to come over to blow the cold wind.

Outside of Rich, a group of cavalry was carefully leading their horses off the boat. This beach is in the best condition, a warm current passes through the shore, so that the sea water does not freeze almost all winter, boats can easily come ashore, and the beach is frozen hard, suitable for war horses to gallop.

Not far from the cavalry, Sima Wu Mai, the marching officer of the fourth battalion of Chengying, lowered his voice and shouted: "Be careful, be careful!" ”

A dozen sailors were towing a small boat on the shore, with an extremely deep draft, swaying in the waves, as if it could capsize at any moment. Reaching the shallow water, the sailors jumped into the icy waters and worked together to push the boat up the beach. Pulling open one side of the gunwale, there was a four-inch bronze cannon in the boat. The gunner, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly pulled the horse over and put on the harness, and pulled the four-inch bronze cannon out of the boat. When the Han army marshal's office proposed to borrow a four-inch bronze cannon to bombard the camp of the Liao army in Guannan, Li Sihai readily agreed, and immediately lent eight spare copper cannons to the Han army, together with the gunners who operated the artillery, which were also evenly distributed by each gunboat.

"What a heavy guy." Wu Mai pushed it and watched the artillery being dragged towards the preset position.

Earthen sacs were simply piled up around the artillery positions. More than 800 Luzhou firecrackers were busy laying antlers in front of the position. One artillery gun after another was dragged into the fort, and the ammunition was all stacked very close to each other to ensure that once the battle began, the artillery could fire at the fastest speed, creating the greatest panic in the Liao army camp. When the last gun was dragged into the barret, all the gunners stood in the emplacement. Until now, no cavalry of the Liao army patrolling the sentry has come out to make trouble. Marching Sima Wu Mai breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the north, the lights of Nanshan City were all extinguished, and it was pitch black.

Nanshan City is the commanding height of this area, and after the Han troops of each department landed on the shore, the sailors sent a signal to Nanshan City with torch flags. The defenders of Nanshan also secretly pushed four three-inch guns out of the city and aimed at the Liao army camp in Guannan. Hundreds of iron horsemen crowded inside the south gate, and the cavalry had excitement on their faces. At the beginning of the siege, the cavalry also went out of the city to step through the Liao army camp, and later the Liao army's defense was strict, and the cavalry could only stay in the city honestly, either doing nothing, or being used as archers, sword and shield bearers.

Not only the cavalry, but also the defenders of Nanshan City, everyone felt a sense of excitement in their hearts, and Zhao Xingde was no exception, he looked at the signal from the sailor gunboat anchored in the western sea, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Send a signal." His face sank like water, but he slapped it heavily on the head of the city, as if he were holding back a breath of evil.

The Han army at the head of the city lit the torches, one torch lit the other, and soon, hundreds of torches were lit at the same time, and then waved vigorously in all directions. The strong wind blew the torches whirring, and almost at the same moment, all the Han troops who saw the signal of Nanshan City began to move, and with the bright moon and clear light, they slowly approached the Guannan camp of the Liao army. In the north and south of the Liao State camp, on the artillery positions of the Han army, Liu Zhijian and Wu Mai ordered to light the incense almost at the same time, and the deputy gunners of each artillery took out the fire fold and blew lightly on it, and the faint sparks were gradually blown bright.

The cavalry led the horses, and the infantry held swords and shields, approaching the Liao army camp step by step, and after the last section, the supervisors of each battalion stopped and sorted out the formation again. On the artillery position, the timing incense burned little by little, and it seemed that it was about to burn to the end. At this time, a Liao defender who was leaning against the fence and napping snorted, suddenly his eyes were round, his face was as white as if he had seen a ghost, he blinked his eyes vigorously, under the bright moonlight, the figures of the groups of people and horses were not like countless evil ghosts running out of hell. The Liao army opened his mouth wide and was unable to make a sound in horror.

"Boom-" "Boom-"

The Han artillery broke the silence first, and round iron bullets streaked across the night sky and fell into the camp in Guannan, Liao State. Under Nanshan Castle in the north, the red-hot round iron bullets with a dark red light, the trajectory was clearly visible in the night sky, and the red-hot bullets were stained with flammable materials such as camp tents and haystacks, which quickly caused the fire to spread. "Quick! Fast! At the urging of the gunner, the gunners loaded their ammunition as fast as they could, and opened fire again. They had to use all the shells they were carrying in the shortest possible time.

The Liao army in Guannan seemed to have fallen into a nightmare, and as if it had just woken up from a nightmare, the Liao army who got up in a hurry ran wildly in the camp, some people rushed out of the camp tent with knives wearing only single clothes, and some people galloped around on saddleless war horses. There was a constant sound of "boom boom" artillery on both sides of the north and south, as if there were enemy night raids and sneak camps on all sides. Some people were horrified to find that there was a large group of cavalry in the southeast rushing towards the big camp, when the Liao army entered the Guannan, the land had thawed, it was difficult to dig trenches, and the fences and antlers outside the big camp could only be said to be better than nothing for the well-trained cavalry.

"Shoot the arrows!" "Hurry up and release the arrows!"

More than 1,000 Liao troops huddled together behind the fence, aiming at the Han cavalry rushing in the distance while setting up arrows. More Liao troops rode on war horses and prepared to go out of the village to mount and fight. At this moment, a solid round iron bullet broke through the air with a sharp whistling sound, and smashed into the middle of this group of people and horses gathered by the elk, and pieces of flesh and blood flew sideways, and the sound of screams was everywhere.

"Beautiful!"

Wu Mai shouted, aiming on land, the accuracy of the artillery crew was greatly improved compared to the ship. The shells of the four-inch guns fell one after another in the Liao army camp, which not only defeated a group of archers, but also interfered with the Liao cavalry behind the camp to fight. It was not until the Han cavalry got very close that Wu Mai ordered to stop covering the artillery bombardment, raise the muzzle, and let the shells fall to the depths of the Liao army camp.

"Whew-" A cannonball flew over Gao Bolong's head with a whistling sound.

"Damn the artillery battalion, it's crazy!" Gao Bolong and many of the cavalry involuntarily bowed their bodies, trying to control their horses so as not to be disturbed by the sound of artillery. In front of the cavalry, the damage caused by the cannonballs was shocking, and the fences and antlers, which were thought to be solved with lassoes, had been destroyed a lot by the cannonballs, and the forward cavalry easily passed through the gap.

"Kill-" Gao Bolong clenched his riding spear in his right hand, and easily hit one person with his horsepower, and several Liao soldiers next to him retreated in panic, and a few more fell down. The cavalry of the Han army behind galloped on horseback, and with the strength of ten thousand jun, they stepped over these Liao soldiers mercilessly. A group of Liao cavalry rushed head-on, Gao Bolong did not give in, the right hand rode the spear upward, the Han cavalry raised their spears one after another, the Jurchen cavalry raised their maces, the two armies were connected, the Han army rode spears and stabbed, the Jurchen cavalry mace waved, the Liao cavalry hurriedly met the battle, and many people fell off their horses.

The cavalry rushed into the Liao State camp, and thousands of armored foot soldiers also marched forward in formation, the front row of soldiers holding long-handled axes, and a large number of crossbowmen around. Along the way, the antlers of the fence were cut off, and the long-handled axe flew up and down, and the cavalry of the Liao army was difficult to approach at all. At this time, there were already shouts of killing in the Guannan camp, and it seemed that another Han cavalry entered the Guannan camp from the north, igniting the earth-shattering thunder fire oil canister and other things all the way, the fire in the Guannan camp was even more violent, and when the gunpowder and grain and grass that the Liao army had hoarded were also ignited, the fire was even more uncontrollable. The Liao army of the battalion fell into a situation of fighting on its own, and the blazing fires and the sound of explosions sounded from time to time were heard far away in the dark night.

Zhao Xingde stood at the head of Nanshan City and kept observing the progress of the night attack with a clairvoyant mirror. Nanshan must monitor the movements of the north and south sides of Suzhou Pass at the same time, and when either side tries to pass through the sea ice passage west of Nanshan City, it is the time to do so. At this time, a cavalry galloped out of the Liao army camp north of Suzhou Pass, turned a corner outside Nanshan City, went around the range of the city's artillery, slowed down its horse, and cautiously passed over the sea ice near the shore.

"Fire!" Zhao Xingde said in a deep voice.

Almost at the same moment, Li Sihai said loudly: "Fuck it!" "The five gunboats were lined up on the sea, and the cannon doors were spewing tongues of fire with "boom", "boom", "boom", "boom", and countless round iron solid shells smashed heavily on the ice with huge inertia. A sailor of the 4th Battalion ignited a shipload of gunpowder piled up on the ice and rushed to hide behind a reef.
