Chapter 377: Night Attack (Part II)
Zhang Shun carefully touched a warship, he looked around by the moonlight, several Goryeo naval sentry posts on the warship were yawning, their heads were little by little from time to time, obviously they had fallen asleep, and there was a faint sound of snoring in the cabin. Zhang Shun was overjoyed in his heart, waved his hand, and seven or eight water ghosts came out, Zhang Shun pointed in the direction, and the water ghosts divided into two roads and carefully touched them.
Zhang Shun touched the side of a Goryeo navy, he suddenly covered his mouth and nose with one hand, and with a wave of the water thorn on his hand, a stream of fishy blood sprayed, and the navy reflexively struggled, but only felt that all the strength passed quickly, and then he didn't know anything.
This kind of plot was also staged on several other ships of the Goryeo navy, and one by one the Goryeo sailors went to the Hades Hall to report without even knowing who the enemy was.
"What people!" Suddenly, a Goryeo voice sounded, followed by a wail, but this was enough, and the entire Goryeo Water Village was awakened by this scream.
"What's going on?"
"Not good, there is an enemy attack!"
"Quick! Fast! Is it a Japanese coar? ”
"Where's my knife? Who took my knife? ”
The Goryeo Water Village suddenly fell into chaos, and they didn't know how to deal with such a scene after a long period of war.
"Damn it, it's been discovered, blow the trumpet!" When Zhang Shun saw that someone called the police, he immediately changed his strategy and began to attack.
"Woo!!!" The trumpeters around him took out their trumpets and began to blow the trumpets, and the water ghosts who had been assassinated in the ships and ports heard the sound of the trumpets and began to shout loudly and create panic, you know, they only had short blades, not even bows and arrows, and they could not fight head-on at all, and now what they had to do was to delay time and wait for the arrival of the army.
"Huh? Has it been discovered? Jiang De shook his head when he heard the sound of the horn and said, "It doesn't matter, give the order, beat the drum and attack, and tell them that we are coming!" ”
"Boom! Boom! Knock knock knock!! Knock knock!!! ”
A rush of drums rang out, countless torches were lit, half the sky was lit, and hundreds of ships, large and small, rushed towards the harbor.
"What's that? Where did so many people come from? ”
"It's over! If you can't win, there are too many of them! ”
"Run!! The Wa Kingdom has invaded! ”
"Oh no! The Liao people called!! ”
"It's over, Song Guo called!!"
The chaotic shouts and earth-shattering drums made many Goryeo sailors tremble in fright, and they couldn't figure out that the enemy's Goryeo sailors also shouted indiscriminately, until the vanguard Wu Song killed the beachhead, and the Goryeo sailors still did not organize a decent counterattack.
"Haha, kill!!" Wu Song wore a battle armor and held a pair of knives in his hand, and rushed into the water village first, slashing left and killing right, and the sergeants behind him followed one after another, and many archers found their positions and shot arrows everywhere to cover, killing the Goryeo water village screaming again and again.
"Herald! Attack Qingyuan Mansion! Seeing that the situation was good, Jiang De immediately ordered.
After Zhu Wu received the order, he began to arrange the troops, Wu Song was in the middle, Mu Hong and Mu Chun were on the left and right, and immediately rushed to Qingyuan Mansion after leading a thousand soldiers and horses to break through the water village, and then Huang Xin and Xu Ning each led their headquarters to the east and north gates of Qingyuan Mansion, but left the south gate not to attack, Jiang De and Lu Junyi slowly went ashore with the rest of the army to line up.
- Qingyuan Mansion
Qingyuan Mansion is the foundation of the Li family, and the officials here are either originally from the Li family, or they have taken refuge in the Li family, so it can be said that this is a real country within a country.
The prefect here is called Li Zilian, and he is also Li Ziqian's brother.
He was asleep at this time, and nightlife was still too little in the day.
"Oh no! Prefect! Open the door!! A knock on the door woke him up, and he opened his eyes in a daze, and asked impatiently as he got up, "What's wrong?" ”
"An army of thieves is attacking the city!!"
"What??"
Li Zilian didn't even wear his own pants, opened the door directly, saw that it was a head, and asked in surprise, "What happened?" ”
"My lord, there are a lot of big ships coming to the port, and they are full of soldiers, you see, the drums are ringing through half the sky!"
Li Zilian listened attentively, only to find that the west was already full of drums and shouts of killing.
"This... What's going on? Where did this soldier come from? Can you see clearly? Is it wearing the clothes of officers and soldiers? Li Zilian only felt trembling all over, and his first suspicion was whether the King of Goryeo had begun to attack the Li family.
Although Du Tou felt that this sounded strange, he still replied, "Lord Hui, I am not wearing the clothes of officers and soldiers, but the military uniforms I have never seen, and I look a bit like a Song person." ”
"Song people?" Li Zilian was suddenly not afraid.
"The Song people actually dare to attack our city for no reason, aren't they afraid of the Liao people's questioning? Come on, prepare clothes for me, I'm going to scold them on the spot! Li Zilian shook his sleeves in order to show his heroism.
"Yes!" The surrounding maids and guards were also excited when they heard it, that is, if the Liao people came over, or the Jurchens came over, or even the Wa Kingdom came over, then they had to be afraid, but what did the Song people have to be afraid of, not to say that Goryeo was a subject country of the Liao State, just to say that the Song State's record, who doesn't know that it is notoriously undefeated and defeated, even if it wins, as long as he writes to the Emperor of the Song State on his side, it is unknown whether the head of the general who won the war can be saved.
"Report !!" A miserable shout came over, and when people looked over, they saw a soldier with some blood on his body running over, "My lord, it's not good, the city is broken, those thieves are about to be killed, Lord Lang asked me to inform the adults to leave quickly!" ”
"Broken. The city is broken? Li Zilian was stunned for a moment, and then he heard the sound of horns and shouts of killing coming from the east and north.
"Run! Come on! Go to Wubao! Li Zilian jumped up and shouted loudly, urging his wife and children to get up and flee quickly, while summoning Ding Zhuang in the mansion to hold weapons and strengthen his courage.
——
"Report to the commander! Commander Wu Song has already broken through the Qingyuan Mansion and is leading the sergeants to kill the state capital. ”
Jiang De had just disembarked at this time, the water village had been completely leveled, the sun and moon flags of Liangshan were hung high, and the captured Goryeo sailors with their heads bowed were tied up in a team and were pressing away.
"Where's Li Fengyi?" Jiang De attacked Qingyuan Mansion this time, and naturally he would not forget the old man Li Fengyi here.
Wu Yong nodded and said, "It's right in the back." Saying that, he waved his hand and shouted, and Li Fengyi hurried over.
"Qingyuan Mansion has been broken by our army, where do you think Li Zilian will flee?"
Li Fengyi knew that this was an opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and immediately said, "Back to the commander-in-chief, then Li Zilian must have fled to the Wu Fort in the countryside with the remnants of the defeated army, and the Wu Fort is me... It was built by their Li family for a hundred years, it is extremely strong, there are countless grains and grasses in it, and there are thousands of elite soldiers, which is the last hole card of the Li family. ”
Saying that, Li Fengyi's eyes gradually became fierce and said, "That Wu Fort is in the east, and the Li family has always been afraid that the Goryeo royal family will liquidate them, so they must have a way to leave Qingyuan Mansion and flee to Wu Fort, and the commander will immediately send a group of elite cavalry to raid Wu Fort, even if it doesn't work, it can also intimidate them." ”
"East?" Jiang De thought for a while and said, "Go and call Dong Ping and Qin Ming!" ”
Soon, the two of them came over.
Jiang De pointed at Li Fengyi and said, "Two generals, Qingyuan Mansion has been broken, but there is still a Li family's Wu Fort in the east, which contains countless money and food, and thousands of elite soldiers, you immediately lead the cavalry that has gone ashore to the raid, this is Li Fengyi, he will lead the way." ”
The two of them arched their hands to Li Fengyi, Li Fengyi looked at the two of them, one holding two guns, and the other holding a huge mace, both of them looked like they were powerful, and said with great joy in their hearts, "Xia Guan will do his best!" ”
Jiang De smiled and said to Li Fengyi, "There are many people in my hands who can fight well, but there are not many people who can govern one side, so work hard." ”
Li Fengyi was overjoyed, this is a promise to him, these former Goryeo officials have actually summed it up in private, and they all feel that even if Jeju Island conquers the entire Goryeo in the future, a large number of officials will be needed to govern it, and they, the first Goryeo officials to join Jeju Island, are naturally the first choice.
Of course, if the war is defeated, you can also flee to the Song State with these Song people in the future, then it is the Song State, and it is not much more desirable to be a rich man in the Song State than to be an official in Goryeo?
Dong Ping and Qin Ming led more than 700 cavalry that had already gone ashore and quickly rushed towards Wubao under the leadership of Li Fengyi.
"Kill!" "Going!!"
"Bang dang!"
The gate of the state capital was slammed open, Wu Song rushed in first, looked around, and saw that there were maids and subordinates who fled with their belongings, frowned, stepped forward and grabbed one person and shouted, "Say!" Where is your prefect? ”
"*&¥%#......" A burst of Korean language came out, and Wu Song's eyes were about to roll out, Wu Song threw the person back and said, "Who knows the whereabouts of the prefect, the reward is ten!" ”
"Damn it, search!" Wu Song waved his hand and shouted, and the sergeant behind him immediately rushed in to search, and while searching, he controlled those stragglers, and those maids and subordinates were also tied up.
At this time, the other two city gates were also opened, and Xu Ning and Huang Xin each rushed in with their soldiers and horses.
"Control all the key roads, and whoever dares to take the opportunity to loot, seize the Fa on the spot!" Huang Xin ordered as he entered the door.
"Quick, take control of their granary vaults, don't allow anyone to enter without permission, and if any friendly troops arrive first, assist them in guarding!" Xu Ning values money and food the most, and he knows very well that the Liangshan army has gone on an expedition here, and the loss is terrifying.
The shouting and killing sound throughout the night had already woken everyone in Qingyuan Mansion, and the people peeked through the cracks in the doors and windows to see the newly emerged army outside.
"Where is this army?" "I don't know." "There are Chinese characters on the flag, I'm afraid it's the Song people." "Did the Song people attack our Goryeo? This is going to be a big deal. ”
There are also some ruffians who take the opportunity to set fire to loot, once these people are touched by the Liangshan army, it is the end of the law on the spot, until Xu Ning and Huang Xin found a few people who can speak Goryeo and loudly announced discipline in order to calm the people, and the city gradually quieted down.
"Report! Found a tunnel! A sergeant ran up to Wu Song and said, Wu Song was guarding the lobby with two knives.
"What? Tunnel? This dog officer must have run away! Brother, let's chase after it! Mu Chun immediately shouted anxiously.
Wu Song thought for a while, shook his head and said, "The city has been broken, and it doesn't hurt to escape a dog official, the most important thing now is to hold the city, and wait for the commander and the brothers to come here, in this way, Mu Chun, the two of you will take a hundred people to chase after you, and if you can't catch up, forget it, I'll guard it here." ”
The two glanced at each other, and felt that if they could catch it, it would be a credit, so they arched their hands and said, "Then it's hard brother." With that, he ordered his troops and left.
- Li Jiawu Fort
Lijia Wu Fort is about 20 miles away from Qingyuan Mansion City, and this Wu Fort is built higher than the city wall of Qingyuan Mansion, which is four or five meters high.
The ancient city wall is not too high because of technology and cost reasons, such as Yanmen Pass, there are generally ten meters, ordinary counties, there are seven or eight meters is a quasi-military place, but this is a Central Plains city, like Goryeo, Kaijing is only six or seven meters high city wall, don't feel short, such a height is enough to defend against most of the attacks.
The city wall of Qingyuan Mansion, which had just been captured by the Liangshan army, was only more than three meters high, and the reason why Wu Song and others could capture the city so quickly was that the short city wall was one of the main reasons, in contrast, the four or five meter high city wall of Wubao already belonged to Xiongcheng.
Wu Bao is actually a small city, after Li Zilian escaped through the secret passage, he took the horses that had been placed at the exit for many years, and immediately galloped to Wu Bao with his family.
The head of Wu Baozhong at this time was Lee Zirang, who had been to Jeju Island.
"What? There are Song people attacking the city? Has the city been lost? Li Zirang looked at his clan brother in disbelief and said, "How many of them are there?" I'll send someone to get the city back at once!" ”
"I don't know, it's overwhelming, they attack from the three city gates, and the city is defenseless, so they can't resist it at all." Li Zilian gasped and said.
"Newspaper!! A large number of cavalry appeared outside, waving the sun and moon banners, and the number was nearly a thousand! A soldier ran in and said.
"What? Wow, it's not enough for these Song people to occupy Qingyuan City, they still want to provoke our Li family, so they immediately ring the bell, gather the clan soldiers, and bring my drape! Li Zirang was not afraid, after all, it was only the cavalry who came, and he had never heard that the cavalry could attack the city.
Coming to the city wall and looking at the dozens of cavalry lined up outside, Li Zirang couldn't help but swallow his saliva, he really hadn't seen such a formation.
"The two generals, that is Li Zirang, who is known as the third master, should be his head in Wubao now, and next to him is Li Zilian, the prefect of Qingyuan Prefecture, and I don't know how he escaped here." Li Fengyi introduced very dutifully, "There are thousands of people in this Wu Fort, every family has practiced martial arts, only talented people can learn literature, the two generals should pay attention to the reason why the Li family can be called the first family in Goryeo, the real reliance is on the hundreds of marksmen in the Wu Fort, these marksmen have practiced bows and arrows since childhood, no one has shot at least 2,000 arrows, and they are invincible." ”
