Chapter 188 Ascend to the city first
In the dark night, there was silence outside the city, and a soldier at the head of the city accompanied Yeluneng to patrol. At every battlement, Yelu Neng repeatedly told the lights to be smaller, to place and move them within the battlement walls, to prohibit the appearance of light at the head of the city, and to warn the officers and soldiers to always pay attention to the movement under the city and not to miss the slightest omission.
In the darkness, Yelu could see that the adjutant general, Ah Shi, was directing the soldiers to carry the rolling logs. Jermanen asked, "How is the rolling wood ready?" Ah Shi replied: "It's ready, let the golden dog come!" Jeron praised: "On the day of victory, this defense envoy will surely ask for merit for you before the Holy One." ”
Ah Shi thanked the lord and continued to direct the soldiers to carry the remaining rolling logs to the city, and Yelu could continue to walk forward. This defense envoy has not closed his eyes for two days and two nights, he is anxiously looking forward to the Holy Saint to send reinforcements, thinking that the city will hold on for one more day, there will be more hope, how do he know that Emperor Tianzuo is still intoxicated with the sound of dogs and horses.
During the days and nights of defending the city, Yelu Neng was physically and mentally exhausted, but he repeatedly warned himself that he could not fall, and vowed to live and die with the Huanglong Mansion. He couldn't keep his spirits up as he walked, and he almost fell down in a flash. The soldiers hurriedly helped him before he came to his senses. At this time, the sound of war drums and shouts of killing suddenly sounded under the city to wake him up completely, and he immediately sent an order to all the soldiers to prepare for battle.
Yelu Neng came to the battlement, and he couldn't see the number of golden soldiers, but only heard the shouting and killing sound shaking the sky. How dare Jeron slack off and supervise the war back and forth? The drumming continued for half an hour and stopped abruptly, and the Jin soldiers did not attack the city. Yelu Neng ordered the soldiers to rest for a while, and then the drums shook the sky and shouted to kill again, and after a while they stopped again, making the Liao soldiers at a loss.
At this time, one of the soldiers at the head of the city whispered to another: "The Jin soldiers dare not attack the city, it is just a bluff, you are in good spirits, I will take a nap." "I squatted down and fell asleep.
Suddenly, the shouts of killing started again, and the soldier woke up sleepless, and the golden soldiers attacked the city on all sides. Yelu Neng commanded at the head of the city, the Liao soldiers were like flying locusts, and the stones and rolling wood fell, and the Jin soldiers were blocked from attacking the city, and there were countless casualties. In the west city gate of the golden soldier set up a ladder to the death of the attack, the black general took the lead, he was wounded by the arrow still bravely in front, when he put his hand on the city, a Liao soldier back a shot through the shoulder, he grabbed the head of the gun and dragged it violently, the soldier let go of the big gun, the black black pulled out of the shoulder and shot the gun, the soldier fell to death in the city.
The black and black blood flowed like an injection, endured severe pain, climbed to the top of the city, and fought with the Liao soldiers with a knife. Pu Cha almost fell down the ladder for the flow stone, Hei Hei was covered in blood regardless of the pain and waved his knife to scatter the nearby Liao soldiers, Pu Cha finally climbed to the top of the city, and the two fought with the Liao soldiers.
At this time, Yelu Neng was commanding at the east gate, and he held his waist knife and shouted loudly: "Smash, smash!" "Rolling wood and stones poured down, some of the Jin soldiers climbed half up, some climbed to the top of the city, all were stoned to death or hacked to death, in the case of heavy casualties, the Jin soldiers still attacked unabated.
Lou Room under the city saw that the city head could not be attacked repeatedly, and personally organized a death squad. The fifty people he selected lined up in two teams, holding torches and steel knives on their backs, these people were tough guys who were not afraid of death, and all of them had the skill of mountaineering and climbing. Lou Mu gave a brief lecture and shouted: "You are selected by me, and you are all heroes who are not afraid of death!" For the sake of the Dajin Kingdom, as long as you have one breath left, you have to climb to the top of the city! ”
Fifty strong men replied in unison: "Die fighting for your country!" Die without regrets! Lou Room shouted, "Follow me!" ”
Lou Mu led fifty strong men to scatter under the city wall, and climbed up the ladder to the top of the city. The Liao soldiers defended desperately, the battle of attack and defense was extremely tragic, some climbed halfway, some approached the city, all were hit by rolling logs and fell to death, and finally Lou led the remaining five or six people to finally climb to the city.
A member of the golden soldier death squad threw the torch into the corner tower of the city, because the torch was soaked in lard, the lard splashed on the wooden building and the wooden building burned. A few more torches were thrown, and soon the corner tower was on fire. In the firelight, Lou Room led several daredevils to kill the city tower and slashed fiercely, and some of the panicked Liao soldiers were killed and some fled. At this time, the flames of the corner tower were raging, and the soldiers were in chaos, and Lou Mur's combat boots were splashed with lard and caught fire, but he still ignored it.
There are more and more Jin soldiers at the head of the city, and countless Liao soldiers have died in battle. At this time, the black generals opened the city gates, and the golden soldiers poured in. Seeing that the general situation was gone, Yelu drew his waist knife and prepared to commit suicide, but his right arm was injured and his hand was no longer able to hold the knife.
At this moment, Lou Mu arrived with a fire in his hand, and he pointed at his steel knife and shouted, "Who are you?" Yeluneng replied: "The defense of the Yellow Dragon Mansion makes Yeluneng!" Lou Mu said: "The defender surrenders, but you will not die!" Yelu Neng laughed and said: "Jade can be broken and burned, how can there be any reason to surrender!" ”
Lou Mu said: "The defense makes a piece of loyalty, but it's a pity to protect its owner by mistake, what will you do today?" "It's just death!" After speaking, he turned around and shouted: "Your Majesty, the minister is loyal to you!" Then he jumped off the city.
Aguta led the troops into the city, the Liao soldiers surrendered one after another, and Lou Mu ordered people to extinguish the fire at the head of the city and collect the weapons abandoned by the Liao. Lou Room reported to Ah Gu that Yelu Neng would rather die than fall into the city and martyr the country, Ah Gu sighed and ordered someone to use a high-quality coffin to bury him.
In the morning, Aguda posted a notice to appease the people, and reorganized the soldiers to pick up the battlefield, and the Huanglong Mansion gradually returned to calm.
In the afternoon of the next day, Xi Yin came to the imperial tent, and Ah Guta suddenly remembered the pagoda of the Huanglong Mansion, and he forgot that he was tired and wanted to go and see it. So, accompanied by Xi Yin and Bo Lu Huo, he went out of the royal tent and saw the towering pagoda in the distance.
When the group came to the pagoda, Aguta looked up and couldn't help but admire: "How majestic! Xi Yin pointed to the pagoda and said: "Your Majesty, this pagoda was built by the Holy Sect in three years, using skilled craftsmen from all over the country, and it took three years to complete. This tower is 12 zhang high, you see, the whole tower has a total of octagonal thirteen layers, each layer is a corner bucket arch, each corner is also hung with wind chimes. ”
Bolu Huo pointed his finger and said, "You see that there are doors and windows on the top, can you go inside and have a look?" Xi Yin smiled: "There is only a door shape on the tower, but there is no door, and this tower is a solid brick tower." Ah Guda praised again: "The solid is strong, and it can stand for a thousand years." ”
Facing the towering pagoda, Xi Yin sighed with emotion and said: "This holy sect, I am afraid that the Dragon Repair Pagoda unearthed in the Huanglong Mansion will be suppressed, why didn't the Guantian Prison see that there was a real dragon in Huining on the bank of the Hushui River?" ”
Bo Luhuo continued: "It seems that this is a dereliction of duty on the part of Qin Tianjian." The breeze blows, the wind chimes at the corner of the tower make a clanging sound, and the majestic pagoda gives people a solemn feeling.
In the imperial tent of the Huanglong Mansion, Ah Guda sat upright, although he did not wear a dragon robe or a crown, he did not lose the majesty of the emperor. The living maid stood aside, and Ah Gu said: "In this expedition to the Huanglong Mansion, my Jurchen soldiers fought bloodily and went forward to conquer this city. ”
Xi Yin proclaimed: "After finishing Yan Lou's room, I have made great contributions to the attack on Huanglong Mansion, I will reward a royal horse, three hundred slaves and maids, and be promoted to Meng'an, and guard Huanglong Mansion." ”
Lou Mu knelt down and thanked: "Emperor Xie, the imperial horse and the ministers of the Weichen accept it, and the ministers of the Huanglong Mansion are duty-bound, and the three hundred slaves and maids will be released as civilians and let them go home, which can be regarded as the emperor's reward for the micro-ministers." ”
Ah Gu Da sighed: "Lou Mu, as Bo Jin, cares about Li Shu, I, Ah Gu Da is ashamed of myself, and I will grant your request." Lou Mu kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
Ah Guda rewarded other meritorious soldiers, and Yinshuke and Boluhuo also made great contributions to the attack on Huanglong Mansion and promoted them to Meng'an, and the two knelt down to thank them. The two generals, Hei Hei and Pucha, were seriously injured during the siege of the city, and they also took the lead in breaking through the city, and their contributions were also great, and they were both promoted to Mouke. Because the two were recovering from their injuries, they could not come to accept the reward, and Ah Guda instructed Xi Yin to tell him before the bed another day. Soldiers who have made meritorious contributions are to be registered and rewarded.
After the brief reward ceremony, Aguta prepared to hold a banquet to entertain everyone, and at the same time, to reward the soldiers for slaughtering pigs and sheep.
Jin Bing rested in Huanglong Mansion for a few days, Yinshu could lead the headquarters to return to Ningjiang Prefecture, A Guda led the army back to Huining, and Lou sent the emperor outside the city to hug his fists and say goodbye.
