'Woo-' The low horn sounded, this is the order of the right army to attack, eight thousand troops rushed out of the woods a mile away, rushed to the right door, two thousand soldiers rushed first, squatted a hundred steps away to the city to release arrows, they used the god arm crossbow, the killing range of one hundred and fifty steps, dense arrows shot at the city head like a storm, instantly suppressed the Liao soldiers on the city head.

Yan Qing and ten of his subordinates encountered a surprise attack on the city, four people were shot dead, and the rest of the soldiers hid under the drawbridge, they brought three earth-shaking thunders, which were special earth-shaking thunders for breaking the city, the volume was twice as large as the original sky-shaking thunder, weighing sixty catties, and the amount of medicine in it was also twice as much.

They carried the Megatron Thunderbolt across the moat on a wooden pallet each, but four soldiers were killed, causing one of the trays to capsize and one to sink to the bottom of the moat, leaving them with only two in their hands.

Yan Qing didn't know if the two earth-shaking thunderbolts were enough, but he could only gamble on his luck, at this time, the dense arrows of the Song army suppressed the defenders of the city, Yan Qing gave an order, led two soldiers to climb ashore, and ran to the city gate with the earth-shattering sky.

Like blowing up the gate of Yongqing County, they used a wooden stool to fix the earth-shaking thunder on the gate, and slowly pulled out the firerope coiled inside from the spout of the earth-shaking thunder, carefully not letting the wet body wet the firerope, at this time, a soldier blew the fire fold, Yan Qing suddenly said: "Wait a minute!" ”

He pulled out the dagger from his boots and cut off most of the fire rope, the remaining fire rope was only enough for them to run seven or eight steps away, shortening the explosion time was to prevent the Liao army from opening the city gate and extinguishing the fire rope, the two soldiers' faces suddenly changed greatly, Yan Qing glanced at the moat, and ordered in a low voice: "Ignite!" ”

Only then did the two soldiers understand, one soldier lit the fire rope with a fire breaker, and the fire rope burned with a snort, Yan Qing and the two soldiers turned over and jumped into the river, hiding under the suspension bridge, several soldiers under the suspension bridge had fixed another earth-shattering thunder at the bottom of the suspension bridge, and everyone took a deep breath and dived into the water together.

Only for a moment, only to hear an earth-shattering explosion, the fire burst out, thick smoke rose into the sky, the whole city was shaking, the earth was trembling, the huge shock wave shook hundreds of Liao soldiers on the city to death on the spot, and the two thousand Song troops a hundred steps away were also shocked by the huge explosion, and they covered their ears and knelt on the ground.

But the smoke has not yet dissipated, and another earth-shattering explosion came, and another earth-shattering thunder fixed under the suspension bridge exploded, the white waves soared, and the sawdust flew away, this earth-shattering thunder blew the suspension bridge to smithereens, two iron chains flew up to the city, and a piece of suspension bridge fragments of a long length flew out dozens of steps away.

When the smoke gradually dissipated, the drawbridge had disappeared, the lower half of the city gate had been blown away, only the upper half was left hanging on the head of the city, and there was not a single Liao soldier within a hundred steps around.

Li Yanqing shouted: "Attack!" ”

'Boom! Boom! Boom! The war drums sounded, 8,000 Song soldiers shouted and rushed to the city gate, Yan Qing and a dozen other scouts climbed ashore from the water, put on a dozen wide planks placed in advance, and 1,000 soldiers took the lead in Yanjing City under the leadership of Wang Gui.

.........

After occupying Pingzhou, the Jin soldiers only stayed for one night, and the 30,000 Jin cavalry immediately moved south and west under the leadership of Wanyan Zongbi, and slaughtered Yanjing City non-stop.

The distance from Lulongsai to Yanjing City is about 400 miles, at the same time that Li Yanqing attacked Yanjing City at night, 30,000 Jin soldiers and iron cavalry have already killed Luxian County, which is about 70 miles away from Yanjing City, and the army has been running for a day, and it is also very tired.

Wanyan Zongbi led 30,000 cavalry, and there was no corresponding siege weapon, even if he killed Yanjing City, it was useless, he still needed to wait for another southbound Jin soldier to cooperate, that is, Wanyan Zongwang led 50,000 Jin soldiers who were ready to go south from Juyong Pass, this Jin soldier carried a large number of siege weapons, and could capture Yanjing City.

On the endless field west of Luxian, 30,000 cavalrymen were wrapped in blankets and lay on the ground and slept with their armor together, and the war horses were grazing grass beside them, and there was a small tent in the middle of the field, and Wanyan Zongbi was standing in the tent holding an oil lamp to check the map.

Wanyan Zongbi is also known as Wushu, that is to say, the famous Jin Wushu in Yuezhong, is the fourth son of Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda, a famous general of the Jin State, he is about 30 years old, with a black beard, a majestic figure, and a very strong martial arts, at the age of 20, he led the army to fight against the Liao army, repeatedly defeated the Liao army, and made great achievements for the establishment of the Jin State.

Although Wanyan Zongbi only sent troops south after getting Tong Guan's letter, he also knew that the Song army of the Eastern Road led by Seed Master Dao was fighting against Xiao Gan, which made him hesitate somewhat.

There are two generals behind Wanyan Zongbi, one is Zongbi's deputy capital Wanyan Xi Gunai, and the other is Yelu Yujian, the general of the Liao Dynasty, and he is also the guide of the Jin soldiers to attack Liao, Yelu Yujian was originally the general of Jin Wuwei of Liao, the uncle of Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi, after the failure of the high-level participation in the struggle for succession by the Liao State, he surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, he knew the domestic situation of Liao well, and was appointed as the vanguard of the Liao attack by the Jin Emperor Wanyan Aguta.

Yelu Yu saw that Zong Bi was a little hesitant, so he asked in a low voice, "What are you worried about?" ”

Wanyan Zongbi sighed, "This time the southward attack on Yanjing is really a bit hasty, I didn't ask my father, I'm worried that it will affect the overall situation." ”

Yelu Yu smiled and said: "But it is the emperor's will to order the capital to be ready to attack Yanjing at any time, since the emperor has decided to attack Yanjing, there is no such thing as affecting the overall situation, and there is a letter from Tong Guan asking us to take Yanjing, then it is justifiable for us to send troops, and the marshal does not have to worry too much." ”

Wanyan Xi Gu Nai next to him snorted disdainfully and said: "Our Jin Guoxiong soldiers dominate the world, don't say that there is a letter from Tong Guan, even if there is no letter from Tong Guan, what can we do if we seize Yanjing, I think the Song Dynasty is a house built of decaying wood, majestic in appearance, in fact, it is vulnerable, hundreds of thousands of troops were actually defeated by tens of thousands of recruits recruited by the Liao State, it is simply a group of fat sheep to be slaughtered, just with 30,000 iron horses in the hands of the marshal is enough to cross the Song Dynasty and plunder the wealth of the Central Plains." ”

Yelu Yu shook his head, "I can't say that, the Song Dynasty still has some warlike armies, and the army of the Planter Dao has been fighting against the Western Xia for many years, and a few years ago, it defeated the elite of the Western Xia, forcing the Western Xia to have to be a vassal to the Song Dynasty, we can't be too careless!" ”

At this moment, a soldier outside the tent reported: "Qiyu is in charge, and there is an outpost outside the tent to send urgent information!" ”

Wanyan Zongbi hurriedly ordered: "Let him in!" ”

After a while, the curtain was lifted, and a soldier walked in quickly, knelt down on one knee and said, "Qiyu Dutong, we found that the Song army has attacked Yanjing!" ”

Wanyan Zongbi was shocked in his heart and asked anxiously, "How many troops are there?" ”

"About 10,000 people, hidden in the woods outside the North City."

"Has the Liao army found anything in the city?" Wanyan Zongbi asked anxiously again.

"I didn't find it at first, but our centurion has shot arrows to remind the Liao army at the head of the city, and they are beginning to prepare."

Wanyan Zongbi was a little anxious in his heart, if the Song army had already captured Yanjing, it would be a bit troublesome, his father was bound to win Yanjing City, he thought that the Song army was still confronting Xiao Gan, but he didn't expect to surprise the army to attack Yanjing.

"Dutong, we must kill Yanjing overnight, if Yanjing is lost, we can't explain to the wolf lord!" Wanyan Xi Gu was in a hurry on the side.

Wanyan Zongbi's heart was in turmoil, of course he knew the serious consequences of the Song army's capture of Yanjing, he immediately gritted his teeth and said: "Pass my order, all the soldiers stop resting, and immediately get on their horses and set off!" ”

.........

In Yanjing City, 10,000 Song troops are engaged in fierce street battles with the Liao army in the city, the Liao army is very tenacious, and the Song army fought to the end, the battle was extremely cruel and tragic, both sides suffered heavy casualties, several combat areas in the city lit a fire, the residents in the city were even more frightened, helping the old and the young to hide in the cellar to survive, every household in Yanjing City has a cellar, which is used to store grain and pickles, and is also used to hide in the war.

Near the East City Gate was an important battle zone, Wang Gui and Niu Gao led 2,000 soldiers to fight fiercely with more than 1,500 Liao soldiers at the East City Gate, the Liao army used the city wall and the houses under the city as a cover to release arrows at the Song army, while the Song army used the houses as a cover, and approached the inner city wall step by step.

Arrows flew on the street, the ground was full of dead soldiers, the Song army had killed more than 100 people, basically all of them were killed by random arrows, and the casualties of the Liao army were similar, the main reason was that the Song army suddenly killed, and some soldiers were killed by the Song army before they had time to retreat.

Li Yanqing's right army had trained night street fighting in Fanyang County, and although it had only been trained for two nights, it was of great help to tonight's night battle, at least the two armies of Wang Gui and Niu Gao cooperated quite well.

Wang Gui's army, armed with shields and spears, approached the city wall step by step, while Niu Gao's soldiers shot arrows at the city head with crossbows in the rear to cover the advance of Wang Gui's army.

A quarter of an hour later, Wang Gui's army finally killed the city, Wang Gui shouted, urged the horse to rush up the Yongdao, took the lead in rushing to the city with a big knife in hand, more than a thousand soldiers shouted in unison, followed by rushed to the Yongdao, the Liao army commander saw that the situation was critical, shouted, led the army to rush up, and the Song army fought fiercely together.

At this time, Niu Gao saw that Wang Gui had rushed to the city, and also shouted: "Follow me to the city!" ”

He also led the 1,000 soldiers of the headquarters to carry the crossbow with the divine arm on their backs, and rushed up with swords and shields in their hands, but hundreds of Liao soldiers under the city rushed out of the alley and intercepted Niu Gao's army......

Not all street battles were dominated by the Song army, the two sides were evenly matched, and the Song army was slightly inferior, especially in the street battles between Yanjing Mansion and Nancheng, the Song army suffered heavy casualties.

The most critical point is the attack on the imperial city, Li Yanqing personally led 2,000 troops to attack the imperial city, and in the imperial city, Xiao Fengxian also led 3,000 troops to resolutely resist, in addition, he also had to divide 500 soldiers to guard the Xuanwu Gate in the north to prevent the Song army from breaking through the Xuanwu Gate and killing from the back.

The offensive and defensive battles between the two sides were also dominated by arrows, and the Liao army concentrated at the head of the imperial city and fired arrows at the Song army outside, while the Song army also relied on the Qin Wangfu and the Liao army dozens of steps away to shoot fiercely.

Although the Song army carried a small trebuchet, Li Yanqing was not in a hurry to throw the earth-shaking thunder into the imperial city, and there was still half an hour before the two watches, and he needed to hold out until the reinforcements arrived, and then block the Xuanwu Gate to prevent the Liao nobles from escaping.

Although Li Yanqing wanted to divide his troops to ambush outside the city, his troops were really insufficient, and the street battles in the city were very fierce, and he couldn't draw troops to go outside the city at all, and the only way was to delay time and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Xiao Fengxian is actually also delaying time, he has sent someone to Xiao Gan in Wanping County to urgently ask for help, from the time calculation, Xiao Gan's 20,000 cavalry can rush back to the capital at the fifth watch.

Both sides are waiting for reinforcements, and it will be up to them to see who arrives first.
