Chapter 317: Bloody Jingshi (2)
Watching Liu Bao lead people to the warehouse, Han Futong gritted his teeth and said: "The rest of the people will go to the stable with Lao Tzu to chop the horse's legs, and don't leave a good horse for Jin Kou!" ”
Guo Yaoshi looked at the half-burned grain and grass and the horses that fell to the ground and wailed, and couldn't help but be angry, and he ordered the captured guard Han Futong to be brought up and scolded. Who knew that Han Futong scolded him for being a slave with three surnames, and being a slave for the golden dog would not end well. Guo Yaoshi also wanted to surrender, but when he heard these words, he became angry and ordered Han Futong to be killed.
When the Jin soldiers arrived at the city of Bianliang, they did not attack the city, but rushed to the houses. The Jin soldiers were like entering the hunting ground, wantonly burning, killing, looting, burning, killing and plundering, and even some Jin soldiers carried their heads to demonstrate under Bianliang City. The people kept looking up at the city gate in pain and wailing, but the defenders on the city were still there, and the city gate was still closed, as if they saw not the people of the Great Song Dynasty, but a group of lambs to be slaughtered.
In fact, the soldiers at the head of the city had long been filled with righteous indignation and asked for a field battle in the city, but Li Gang did not allow it. This is the conspiracy of the Jin soldiers, and when they go out of the city to fight in the field, they will be in the middle of it, and after Yan Zongwang wants to fight in the field, they will win or lose in one fell swoop. If you go out of the city and lose the battle, the millions of people in the capital will be placed under the clutches of the golden soldiers. The anger of the soldiers shows that there is courage to fight against the provocation of Jin Ko, and there is morale and combat effectiveness. Soldiers! Spray your blood into the battle to defend the city! At that time, let Jin Kou pay for his blood debt!
Li Gang, who was standing at the head of the city, felt like a knife, and at this time he regretted it deeply with himself, and he always wanted to guard the walls of the capital and not let Jin Kou take a step forward, but he forgot to evacuate the residents outside the city. This was a fatal mistake, and if the walls had been cleared and the residents had been evacuated, how could we have suffered today.
Ay! Commanding operations still requires professional generals, and scholars like us do not have the ability to control the overall situation. Thinking about it, even Mu Huogang's war horses and supplies were forgotten to be transferred back to the city, am I, the city defense general, qualified? But who told me that there is such a place as Mu Huogang? Did the imperial court give me time to fully prepare for it?
hated Cai You, knowing that there was Mu Huogang, but he didn't say a word; The hateful ministers of the court wasted their precious time in the sound of quarrels.
Who is to blame for such a situation?
The night was falling, the moon had not yet risen, and black covered the sky. Dozens of boats in the Bianhe River outside the West Water Gate were blazing, and the Jin soldiers attacked at night to burn down the city defense facilities.
Li Gang at the head of the city was calm and calm, and he sneered and said, "Banmen get an axe!" The robbers who are used to riding horses use the water battles they are not good at to sneak attack, and you will not come back tonight! The death squad is out of the city, don't let Jin Ko's fireboat get close to the water gate, and try to destroy it! ”
More than 2,000 death squads descended from the city wall along the ropes, threw many long ropes with hooks and hung them on the edge of the boat, and everyone pulled the fire boat to the shore with all their strength at the same time. Either extinguish the fire, stone it down, or drag the fireboat to shore and leave it to fend for itself.
When the Jin soldiers saw that the fireboat was destroyed, they prepared to storm it, and countless ships carrying the Jin soldiers went down the Bianhe River. Li Gang immediately ordered the Divine Arm Bow to be launched, and at the same time opened the West Water Gate, and the Great Song ships quickly attacked.
The ships of the Great Song Dynasty did not go head-to-head with the Jin soldiers, and the defensive strength of the capital was already limited, and Li Gang could not afford to be injured. The boat was loaded with many stones removed from the rockery, as well as logs made of huge wooden nails, which were mainly used to block the river and prevent the Jinbing's ships from moving smoothly.
These things have to be thanked to several famous corrupt officials in the capital, Cai Jing, Liang Shicheng, Li Yan, and Wang Hao's huge rockeries and gorgeous pavilions and pavilions, all of which were demolished to defend against the Jinkou. To say that these objects are much stronger than these moths, at least they still silently resist the ships of the Golden Kou with their own strength, and these moths only know how to deprive, and have no consciousness to dedicate a trace of their own strength.
The ships of the Great Song Dynasty succeeded in blocking the river under the cover of the Divine Arm Bow, and then retreated, closing the West Water Gate. Some of the large ships of the golden soldiers sailed along, some ran aground in the boulders, some forced their way along the gaps, but they were blocked by the rocks and logs, and they could not go back or back, and some of the smaller ships hit the huge rocks as if they were hit by a reef, the hull cracked, and the cabin was flooded.
At this time, the West Water Gate opened again, and many small boats carrying firewood and grass sprinkled with sulfur and fire nitrate rushed to the ships of the Jin soldiers. The boats were all sailors recruited in the city, and they were basically dead soldiers, and when the boat approached the golden soldiers' ships, they lit the firewood and grass in the boats, and when they rushed into the golden soldiers' boats, a few of them could survive. First Literature
Jin Bing's ship was in the fire, the West Water Gate opened again, and the Song Dynasty sailors rowed hard against the current, this time counterattacking. Each bow is equipped with at least two divine arm bows and two crossbow beds, and the arrows fired by long-range weapons make the golden soldiers unbearable, and the firing distance is not enough, so the angry golden soldiers scream. When they arrived, the archers on the nearby ship fired in unison, and the rain of arrows enveloped the golden soldier's ship.
The big ships in front were blocked, so that the golden soldiers and ships behind had nothing to do. Seeing that the small boats of the Song Dynasty could pass, the generals who commanded the Jin soldiers ordered the big boats to give way to the small boats. Jin Bing drove a small boat, shuttled through the middle of the big ship, and fought against the Song soldiers, and for a while people on the Song army ships continued to die. Seeing that Li Gang ordered a retreat, the Song Dynasty ships turned around and went down the river and quickly withdrew. When the Jin Bing boat reached the West Water Gate, they were greeted by a dense rain of arrows and crazy stones.
The Jin soldiers' attack was blocked, only to find that more than 2,000 Song soldiers who had destroyed the fireship were still on the shore, secretly shooting a few arrows from time to time. They didn't want to return in vain, so they landed on the shore to hunt down these Song soldiers. These Song soldiers ran unhurriedly, and climbed up the rope when they arrived at the bottom of the city. The Jin soldiers who chased after him saw that the arrows on the city were sparse, and said that the Song soldiers were short of arrows, so they also climbed up along the rope. The Jin soldiers behind saw that the city could be broken and swarmed up.
There were more and more golden soldiers climbing on the rope, and only to hear an order, the rope was cut by the defenders at the head of the city, and a miserable scream sounded under the city. Immediately after that, the angry stone rushed towards the golden soldier, and the screams continued one after another.
At this time, the moon slowly revealed his face, Jin Bing's face looked so bleak in the moonlight, while Song Bing's face was radiant under the moonlight.
Wanyan Zongwang had no choice but to order the troops to retreat.
Wanyan Zongwang certainly wanted a quick victory, but if the Song people didn't leave the city, he had to go in.
Last night's sneak attack, the lost nest, lost more than 2,000 warriors in vain. Today's battle is bound to show its might, play the momentum of Dajin to break Liao, and take Bianliang City. However, there were less than 100,000 Jin soldiers, and the siege on all sides seemed to be weak, so it was necessary to find a weak point to succeed.
When Wanyan Zongwang was racking his brains for this weak point, Guo Yaoshi came over to offer advice, he had stayed in the capital for several months, and he knew best where the most effective and correct place to attack was.
The attack of the golden soldiers is about to begin, and it seems that they are going to attack at the south gate, and countless golden soldiers have gathered outside the moat. Li Gang stared at the city, feeling that today's Jin soldiers were a little strange, in the past, the Jin soldiers had already flocked to it, why were they still standing still today, what were they hesitating about? Or are you waiting for something?
At this time, the Jin soldiers began to attack, and they sent a team of only 1,000 men to start crossing the moat, and the bamboo rafts were scattered. It seems that the Jin soldiers have suffered a few losses from the Great Song Dynasty's long-range weapons, and they have learned wisely and no longer charge intensively. Li Gang ordered the crossbow bed and the Divine Arm Bow not to be fired, he was reluctant to waste precious arrows, and when he got closer, he shot them with a bow and arrow. These 1,000 people also seemed to have no intention of charging, slowly moving and moving, and the war drums of the Chinese army did not urge, and there was no follow-up team. Li Gang was puzzled, what the hell is Jin Bing doing, there is no follow-up team, and a thousand people rushed to the city and only suffered their lives.
I can't figure it out, so I can only wait and see what happens, and wait for the Jin soldiers to enter the firing range, and Li Gang ordered the archers to aim and shoot the enemy. A rain of arrows passed, and the Jin soldiers dropped dozens of corpses and retreated, running much faster than the speed of attacking. Retreating to the river, the drums urged the attack, so the Jin soldiers repeated their previous movements.
At this time, a hurried sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the herald quickly dismounted and ran up to the city, saying, "Lord Li, the big thing is not good!" The Jin soldiers attacked from the north gate, wanting to storm the sour date gate! ”
"Not good! It's time for the Golden Kou! ”
Li Gang was shocked, and after he handed over the defense of the south gate to Yao Zhongyou, he quickly ran down the city and shouted to the reserves: "I want archers, all the archers are assembled!" ”
