Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Great Victory
"Lord Banner, the Ning army has captured Yanziji!"
Li Yuanxiao and Kuimut hurried to Borzi's camp.
"What!" Hearing Li Yuanxiao's words, Borji struggled to get up from the bed, thinking that if he lost Yanziji, hundreds of thousands of southbound Jin soldiers would completely lose support, he couldn't help but be angry, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he suddenly fainted.
"My lord! My lord! ”
Li Yuanxiao and Quimmut panicked, the battle took a sharp turn, Borzi fainted again, and now they were headless flies.
Soon, the medical officer arrived, and after taking Borzi's pulse, the medical officer shook his head, "The adult pulse is extremely weak, only afraid, only afraid of ......"
"What are you afraid of, say it quickly!" Kui Mu was impatient and rebuked angrily.
"I'm afraid that my life will not be guaranteed." The medic sighed.
Li Yuanxiao and Kuimut glanced at each other, and their hearts suddenly cooled, and they were afraid that they would be planted under Jiangning City this time.
"What's next?" Kuimut asked Li Yuanxiao, and he knew that Li Yuanxiao had more ideas than him.
Li Yuanxiao glanced at Kuimut, "The only way now is to recapture Yanziji, otherwise the support will be cut off, and the army of more than 100,000 will collapse in a few days. ”
Kuimut nodded, "I'll go gather the soldiers now, and attack Swallow Rock as soon as it is dawn." ”
Li Yuanxiao nodded, his expression was solemn, he knew very well that even then they would have a slim victory, because the soldiers of the Hua Dynasty in Jiangning City would not sit idly by and watch them recapture Yanziji.
This time they were afraid that they would be attacked on their backs, but they had to do it again.
……
After Yanziji, Lu Zhen and Lin Rui cleared out the Yanziji defenders, they immediately asked the soldiers to guard the key nodes of the Yanziji camp, and at the same time asked the artillery to concentrate the artillery in the direction of Jiangning City.
In order to defend Swallow Rock, there are a large number of golden artillery in Swallow Rock, which has now become their trophies.
"When the day dawns, it will inevitably be a vicious battle, and success or failure will all be in this battle!" Lu Zhen's expression was resolute, this was the decisive battle he was waiting for.
Lin Rui looked at the Jin barracks, he understood what Lu Zhen meant, the Jin people would definitely fight back wildly, and there were less than 8,000 of them, and it was unknown whether they could win the victory alive.
"Hehe, none of Ning Jun's brothers are of a bad breed, do you say it!" Lin Rui said to the nearby soldiers.
"Yes, we're not bad seeds." The soldiers shouted.
Lu Zhen was relieved in his heart, and he had to say that the soldiers of the Ning Army were the most morale he had ever seen, unlike the muddy nightmares of the soldiers of other armies, the soldiers of the Ning Army knew what they were fighting for, they were a group of soldiers of faith.
He didn't speak, just nodded emphatically, with these soldiers as his company, even if he died in battle, he would have no regrets.
I don't know when, the sky is covered with a hint of fish belly white, the night fades, and dawn comes.
The soldiers of the Ning Army in Yanziji were all in good spirits at this time, and soon, they saw the soldiers of the Jin Army coming like a tide.
In order to recapture Yanziji, this time the Jin people poured out of the nest, and more than 100,000 people were pressed on the five-mile-wide passage.
"Fire!" When the Jin soldiers entered the firing range, Lu Zhen immediately gave the order.
At the same time, the other soldiers met the Jin soldiers head-on, and they formed three horizontal formations, firing continuous fire at the swarming Jin soldiers with three shots.
……
In Wubao, Lin Mu gathered all the recruits.
When the Jin army attacked Yanziji, he led the soldiers out of the city to attack the Jin army camp, and at the same time got Lin Mu's news of the Jiangning City Gate opened, Liu Jiangbai led the defenders from the city gate, and the two armies converged to attack the Jin soldiers from behind.
"Lin Mu, you should be the first to turn the tide this time." Liu Jiangbai and Lin Mu converged, and patted Lin Mu's shoulder when they met.
"This is just what the little nephew should do, the country is in danger, and the cloth is responsible." Lin Mu observed the battle situation on the front line and was polite to Liu Jiangbai.
The war is not over yet, Liu Jiangbai naturally knows the key point at this time, he said: "In January, the defenders in the city lost more than half, and now they can only dispatch 80,000 soldiers, and the victory or defeat is here. “
"Uncle Liu doesn't need to worry, the Jin soldiers will be defeated in this battle." Lin Mu was very confident, he only needed the Jiang Ning defenders as a meat shield, and the rest would be left to the Ning army.
Although the number of Jin soldiers is large, their morale has fallen to the extreme, and there are a large number of surrendered soldiers of the Chinese Dynasty who have been coerced by the Jin soldiers, and these soldiers are even more fragile.
Liu Jiangbai nodded, "Now these 80,000 soldiers are mobilized with you, if you win this big victory, the first credit should be yours!" ”
Lin Mu was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Liu Jiangbai to even have the opportunity to fight for military merits, but it was not bad for him, if he was under full command, it would not be so good that you would fight yours on the battlefield, I would fight mine.
Observing the situation on the battlefield again, Lin Mu found that the Jin soldiers had already been in chaos, and the capture of Yanziji was also a swarm.
After thinking about it for a while, he asked the defenders of Jiangning City to line up in a large horizontal line, and pushed directly towards Yanziji, facing the chaotic Jin soldiers, this kind of array had the highest lethality.
The first batch of 20,000 soldiers was dispatched, and Lin Mu organized the remaining soldiers into three reserves, and without cavalry, they could only confront the Jin soldiers head-on.
At this time, Li Yuanxiao was also paying attention to the movement of the battlefield, and seeing that the defenders of Jiangning had really left the city, he immediately dispatched 30,000 soldiers to meet the enemy, and the remaining soldiers continued to storm Yanziji.
The armies of the two sides suddenly fought together on the plain on the east side of Yanziji, and the battlefield rang out with neat firing from time to time.
Lin Mu observed the battle and saw that the Jin soldiers were meeting the enemy, so he immediately asked the soldiers of the Ning army to seize the high ground and use artillery to support the defenders of Jiangning.
This time, Lu Zhen and the others did not take away the field artillery, so with the field artillery of the recruits, this time he brought nearly 200 field artillery.
It can be said that the task of this recruit is to act as artilleryman.
With the Jiangning defenders pinning down the main force of the Jin soldiers, the recruits established artillery positions safely.
At this time, they opened fire on the array of the golden soldiers, and the 200 artillery pieces roared, and the shells smashed into the array of the golden soldiers like raindrops, and the casualties of the golden soldiers increased greatly for a while.
Seeing this, the morale of the Jiangning defenders was greatly boosted and they continued to move forward.
The soldiers of the Jin Army have long been panicked because of the loss of Yanziji, and now they are even more unbearable when they are attacked on both sides.
Seeing that they were at a disadvantage, a large number of Han soldiers fled one after another, and the war was one-sided.
All this was seen by Liu Jiangbai, and he showed a happy look, how unhappy was the golden soldier who was once like a tiger and wolf is now like a frightened bird.
"This battle is decided." Liu Jiangbai laughed.
Lin Mu also smiled, now everything is developing towards his expectations, and the next thing is that it is time to encircle and suppress this group of Jin troops on both sides.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the soldiers of the Ning Army to join the battle.
