Chapter 206: Burning Tongguan
Soon, the slightly dark young general of this commander led his men towards the top!
This time the attack was much more fierce than that of Liu Jiajun, and the long and slightly black young general actually rushed to the front by himself, and behind him, countless soldiers shouted and went forward!
This young general is none other than Zhang Jun! He is also one of the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, and Yue Fei and Han Shizhong! is different from Liu Guangshi, he is a real talent and a real learning existence! Historically, Zhang Jiajun was known for his tyranny! After Zhang Jun Danfan laid down a place, he immediately let his soldiers burn and loot on a large scale! He fought a duel with the Jurchens, and if he failed, he naturally had nothing to say, and if he was victorious, the people there would definitely suffer poison! His army is much more tyrannical than the Jurchen army!
"Rush! All rush up with Ben! After entering Guanshan, you will be allowed to loot in Guanshan for half a year! Zhang Jun's voice spread throughout the battlefield!
His martial arts are extremely clever, and he is second only to Han Shizhong among the younger generation of the Western Army!
"Emperor Xuanwu, you must die! You insulted me back then, and I will never let you go! Zhang Jun gritted his teeth and said.
He hated Zhao Chen unusually! Back then, outside Xiangzhou City, he used a large army to kill Zhao Chen, and in the end Yue Fei captured him alive, he felt that he had received a huge shame, so he hated Zhao Chen!
His army crawled upwards!
Above, the soldiers of the forbidden army shot their bows and arrows downwards while pushing the ladder away from the city wall with all their might! Countless ladders were overturned, and countless soldiers of the Zhangjia Army screamed and fell down!
"Frying pan!" Yang Zhong was roaring loudly.
Suddenly, countless boiling oil poured down from above! After this boiling oil was poured down, the screaming sound became more intense, and there were screams everywhere!
The stone thrower has also been erected, and huge stones continue to fall into the army below, and the army below screams again and again!
Zhang Jun was also on top of the cloud ladder, and the arrows on it fell, and he used the sword in his hand to pull it away! He's getting closer and closer to it at the moment!
Just then, another arrow fell from above! This arrow has a sharp wind sound, unusually piercing! Zhang Jun pushed this arrow away, and he felt a little struggling! It turned out that it was Yang Zhong who sent this arrow!
Although Yang Zhong's martial arts are not as good as Zhang Jun's, they are also in the innate realm, and the arrow he sent out is naturally not trivial!
"Shoot this man first!" Yang Zhong roared, and dozens of bows and arrows on the city wall were shot towards Zhang Jun together!
Yes!
Zhang Jun let out a loud shout, and the sword in his hand swung into a ball, blocking all the arrows in an instant! It's just that soon, the second wave of dozens of arrows came again, and Zhang Jun was unstable and almost fell!
He didn't dare to stay here any longer, he snorted coldly, and his body rushed down!
The soldiers of the forbidden army above already knew that he was an enemy general, and even if he had gone down, the bows and arrows above were still shooting towards him!
In the end, Zhang Jun had to completely retreat from the front!
******
Seeing Zhang Jun's embarrassed appearance, Liu Guangshi's face showed a happy expression!
His Liu Jiajun couldn't defeat Tongguan, so he naturally didn't want Zhang Jun's Zhang Jiajun to knock Tongguan down!
Zhang Jun looked at Tongguan in front of him, his face was extremely ugly!
Qin Hui came to his side and said, "General Zhang, you don't have anything to do, right?" ”
Zhang Jun shook his head and said, "Lord Qin, this Tongguan is a well-known danger in the world!" If you are a husband, you can't open it! We have an army of 800,000 troops, but none of our siege weapons have been brought here! Such a hard attack, the losses are too heavy! ”
Qin Hui said: "Then in your opinion, what should I do?" ”
Zhang Jun sneered and said, "Isn't there Lord Zongze's 600,000 righteous army behind?" These rebels don't have much ability, so they just use them as meat shields! Let these 600,000 rebels rush forward, first exhaust all the strength of the defenders above, and wait until dawn, and then our elite army will continue to attack the city! At that time, Tongguan will be conquered in one fell swoop! ”
Qin Hui thought for a moment and said, "Okay! Do it! ”
At that moment, Qin Hui immediately went to find Zong Ze, but there were 800,000 troops concentrated here, and their communication system was also extremely chaotic, and it took half an hour for Qin Hui to find Zong Ze, and he ordered Zong Ze to attack the city at that moment!
Zong Ze frowned, and said, "With the Zhang family army and the Liu family army here, why do you let the righteous army go up to attack the city?" It's okay for these rebels to let them harass the grain road, but if they attack the city, I'm afraid they won't be able to! ”
Qin Hui said: "You don't need them to lay down Tongguan!" They only need to exhaust the strength of the Tongguan defenders! ”
Zong Ze immediately understood what Qin Hui meant, and he stayed there!
After a while, Zong Ze's face showed a hint of pain, and he said, "Okay, do it!" ”
Zong Ze's prestige among the rebels is extremely high, and only he can command the rebels!
At that moment, Zhang Jiajun and Liu Jiajun retreated one after another, and the righteous army began to attack Tongguan!
The leader of the rebel army is Wang Yan, and at the moment, under Wang Yan's order, the rebel army is going to the top! The weapons of the rebels were much worse than those of the regular army, and many even carried wooden clubs in their hands! How can they lay down Tongguan like this?
Yang Zhong immediately felt the change in the offensive, and Yang Zhong thought about it at the moment, and said, "Leave five thousand people here, and the rest rest rest immediately!" Tomorrow morning, I'm afraid there will be a big war! ”
In the night, the shouts of killing shook the sky, but there were only more than 5,000 defenders left!
These more than 5,000 people kept throwing boulders down, constantly shooting bows and arrows, and constantly pushing the ladders away!
However, there were too many enemies, and in the end, some enemies rushed up! Whenever someone rushed up, the soldiers of the forbidden army swarmed up and pushed them down!
As the night passed, the five thousand people above were exhausted!
At this time, Zhang Jun once again led the Zhang family army to attack!
******
At the location of the Tongguan City Gate, countless rebel soldiers were holding several huge logs and constantly hitting the city gate, and Yang Zhong had to arrange soldiers to completely block the city gate below!
And on the city wall, hundreds of soldiers of the Zhang family army have already rushed up! These soldiers of the Zhang Family Army are very different from the forbidden army, and they are far from being the opponents of the forbidden army! But the soldiers of the forbidden army were tired all night, and it was a little difficult to resist at the moment!
"Haha! Lay down Tongguan! Soon you will be able to play Tongguan! Emperor Xuanwu, I want to capture you alive! Zhang Jun laughed!
However, his laughter did not last long, and the fresh force of the forbidden army rushed up from behind!
Almost a cover-up, all the soldiers of the Zhang family army were killed, and Zhang Jun also retreated again!
Yang Zhong immediately ordered the soldiers of the forbidden army who had been fighting all night to rest, and at this moment it was five thousand fresh troops left on the city wall!
It's just that Zhang Jun's attacks are endless, not only the Zhang Jiajun, but also the Liu Jiajun and the Righteous Army are constantly attacking above!
They didn't stop at all!
Someone kept rushing up, and the soldiers of the Forbidden Army kept dying!
It was already afternoon, and the losses of the forbidden soldiers were too great, and those forbidden soldiers who were already resting had to rush up and take up their positions!
"How many more do we have?" Yang Zhong killed an enemy soldier who rushed up and asked anxiously.
"And seven thousand! But, General, our soldiers are too tired! A lieutenant said, and this lieutenant was also full of anxiety!
"Even if you are tired, you have to keep fighting! Tongguan is still some distance away from Chang'an, and we must give Chang'an enough time! We're going to stand up here, even if it's just one person, we're going to fight! We want to make sure that Your Majesty can go to a safe place and make sure that Chang'an responds appropriately! Yang Zhong gritted his teeth and said.
"Yes! Brothers understand this! Brothers all have the idea of sacrificing their lives for the country! The lieutenant said.
"Good!" Yang Zhong laughed, he had already killed one of the enemy soldiers who rushed up again!
"Kill!" Yang Zhong shouted, and the soldiers behind him also shouted after him!
In the end, the entire city wall was filled with the sound of "killing", shaking the heavens and the earth!
A new wave of enemy attacks is coming up again!
They have an army of 800,000 people, and now every wave is a new force!
"Kill! Kill, kill, kill! "There are voices like this everywhere on the walls!
Now the number of enemy troops rushing up the city walls has increased! More than 2,000 people rushed up, but soon, these 2,000 people were driven down again!
The day has passed!
It was already evening, Zhang Jun and Liu Guangshi organized a new wave of attacks, this time they shot arrows below, and the arrows below did not have much strength when they reached the top, they just used the arrows to urge their soldiers to move forward, if there were their own soldiers behind, they would immediately shoot those soldiers to death!
"Rush! Rush up on it for me! I don't believe I can't beat Tongguan City! Zhang Jun was extremely depressed in his heart!
Their army of 800,000 has not stopped for a moment from last night until now! The Tongguan garrison above seemed to be only 10,000 people, and they couldn't take it yet, which made Zhang Jun feel very ashamed! In his opinion, the Jin soldiers are indeed powerful, the Jurchens are invincible, and it is normal for them to be unable to beat the Jin soldiers, but they are also Han Chinese, and they can't beat each other, so it is a little difficult to accept!
"Wang Yan, let your people rush up too! Don't stay for a moment, you must take Tongguan! Qin Hui found Wang Yan and said.
Wang Yan nodded!
It was already dark, the snow was still falling, and Wang Yan's rebels swarmed towards the city wall!
The number of Liu Jiajun, Zhang Jiajun, and the Righteous Army who rushed up this time has exceeded 5,000 people! And these 5,000 people are basically a new force!
The soldiers of the Praetorian Army were exhausted to the extreme, and many had some difficulty lifting their arms!
"Kill! We must kill them all, we must drive them all down! Can't let them take Tongguan! Soldiers, form a phalanx and drive them down! Yang Zhong was also extremely tired at the moment, and he shouted loudly!
The soldiers of the forbidden army above formed a tiny phalanx according to their usual training, and there were only a small phalanx of more than ten people! They work with each other and support each other!
"Can't fall down! Never fall! Kill the enemy! "A Janissory soldier in front of him had blood all over his face, one of his arms had been broken, he couldn't hold on, but he struggled forward, he let the enemy's weapon stick on his body, and then he poked the knife in his hand into the enemy's stomach!
The enemy was in disbelief, and he fell there, bleeding so much that he could barely stand up, but he still crawled forward, and he slashed another enemy in the shin!
The enemy screamed and fell to the ground, and he continued to go on, but he bled too much, and gradually his face became more and more pale, and he could not support it!
"Are you dying? Sacrifice your life for your country! No way! Hold on a little longer and kill one more enemy! It's worth a little to die! Ah......h
At such a moment, I don't know where he got the strength, he actually threw this enemy to the ground, and his comrades killed this enemy violently! It's just that he's lost his breath and has a simple smile on his face!
On the battlefield, such things abound!
The army of 800,000 is still charging upward!
At this moment, Yang Zhong was also scarred, and suddenly he saw a trace of fire in the distance, and a smile appeared on his face!
"Tongguan, even if it is burned, you can't get it! There is a lot of ordnance, a lot of grain and grass, and all of them will be burned! He said secretly in his heart.
"Brothers! The final moment has come! Hold them back, be sure to hold them down! Let them die with us in this Tongguan City! Yang Zhong suddenly laughed and yelled.
After he said this, the soldiers of the forbidden army on the city wall immediately understood what Yang Zhong meant! They knew that the time had come to burn Tongguan, and that they would certainly be buried in the flames, and the enemies they were entangled in would also be buried in the flames!
In the heavy snow, the flames of Tongguan City were raging, and the soldiers of Liu Jiajun, Zhang Jiajun, and the Righteous Army wanted to retreat, but the soldiers of the forbidden army tightly entangled them and didn't let them leave at all!
******
"Not good! Get out of here! Qin Hui looked at the situation in Tongguan and said in shock!
"The order to retreat has been given! It's just that Emperor Xuanwu's subordinates are very difficult, and now they are all desperate to push our ladder down, and our soldiers can't get down at all! Liu Guangshi said.
"Open the gates!" Qin Hui said.
"There's a fire at the gates, too!" Liu Guangshi said.
"How so? How many of us are on it? Qin Hui said.
"There are always forty or fifty thousand people!" Liu Guangshi said.
"Damn it!" Qin Hui scolded angrily.
The entire Tongguan City was caught in flames, and there were screams everywhere! Occasionally, the sound of wild laughter can be heard, which is made by the soldiers of the forbidden army when they are dying! Yang Zhong was already on fire all over his body at the moment, and his whole body was in severe pain, but he was still holding an enemy general tightly, and the general was constantly struggling, but unfortunately he couldn't break free!
"I'm going to die! Die with me! The sound of Yang Zhong's laughter spread to the bottom of Tongguan!
Qin Hui, Liu Guangshi and others stood there, at a loss! They are here to fight, and there is no way to extinguish the fire at all! Moreover, there are too many grains and grasses in Tongguan City, and once they burn, it is impossible to extinguish them!
From late night until dawn, the fire continued to burn without stopping......
