The Jin soldiers who came to suppress the rebellion in Longde Mansion were 10,000 Han troops on Hedong Road, they were originally the Xiang army of the southern states of Hedong Road in the Song Dynasty, after the Jin soldiers occupied Hedong Road, they surrendered one after another, and were reorganized into the Han Army of Hedong Road, which was commanded by Hedong Road to make Liu Daliu commander, Liu Daliu was also appointed as the commander of the Han army, and his status was quite high.

After the outbreak of the Taiyuan Campaign, this army was transferred to Jiexiu County to be responsible for guarding the logistics of the Jin soldiers, but Liu Daying failed to keep the granary of Jiexiu County and was ordered to be beheaded, and this army was changed to Liu Daliu's general Zhao Wenhui under the command of the commander, and the main general was also downgraded, from the capital system to the commandery, and the level of the army was also downgraded from the third level of the Han army to the fourth level of the Han army.

In this way, the soldiers' salaries were generally reduced by three percent, and the welfare benefits such as food and accommodation were also reduced accordingly, and the armor was also reduced from cowhide armor to ink-coated cloth armor, which was the reward and punishment system of the golden soldiers, and it was a punishment for them for not holding the logistics camp.

Generally speaking, the Han army is divided into four levels, the Han army in the territory of the original Liao State is generally the first-level Han army, while the surrender of the Song Dynasty forbidden army belongs to the second-level Han army, the surrender of the Song Dynasty Xiang army belongs to the third-level Han army, and the fourth-level Han army is mainly the original village soldiers.

But as far as the rank of the Jin soldiers is concerned, the level of the Han army is still at the bottom, lower than the Jurchen soldiers, Bohai Goryeo soldiers and Qixi soldiers, ranking at the bottom, and this severely punished army belongs to the bottom of the bottom, the most direct treatment is that the monthly salary is always money, there is no right to distribute the spoils, half a catty of brown rice is given every day, a plate of pickles, and the accommodation is also a big tent for fifty people, wearing cloth armor, wearing leather helmets, no shields, crossbow arrows, only a Khitan spear and a dagger.

They were responsible for the dirty work in the army, and the suppression of the peasant rebellion was also thrown to them, and every Han soldier had a tattoo on his forehead, once he escaped and was caught, he was immediately beheaded, and it was because of fear of this that these soldiers, despite their extremely low morale, did not dare to run away easily, even if they fled to the Song realm, they would not be able to raise their heads because of the tattoos on their foreheads, and they could only mix one day at a time.

The army rushed to the city of Shangdang, Zhao Wenhui looked up at the county seat, the county seat has no moat, and the city wall is not high, he turned around and shouted: "The army is assembled!" ”

A drum sounded, 10,000 Han troops quickly assembled, Zhao Wenhui rode on a war horse and shouted to 10,000 soldiers: "The other party is just a rebellious peasantry, a group of rabble, vulnerable, you cheer me up, if this rebel army is exterminated, we can be restored to the third-level Han army, and the treatment is the same as before, I promise you, after breaking through the county, you will get the benefits you expect!" ”

His precepts quickly spread throughout the army, and the eyes of all the soldiers lit up, although they did not have the right to distribute the spoils of war, and all the spoils of war had to be handed over, but it did not mean that they could not get benefits, and all the soldiers understood in their hearts that their benefits meant women and small treasures that could be hidden, mainly gold and silver and jewelry, which women could enjoy on the spot, and gems, pearls, and small ingots of gold and silver could be hidden, and the military judges could not find them at all.

The Han soldiers, who were originally dying, became as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood after receiving the promise of the main general.

Zhao Wenhui knew that the morale of his army was difficult to rise and extinguish, and it was easy to rise, and he had to hurry up, he didn't have time to let the soldiers rest, so he drew his sword and pointed at the city and shouted: "Siege!" ”

．．．．．．．．．

'Boom! Boom! Boom! The drums of the attack were beaten, and 10,000 golden soldiers rushed to the city two miles away.

This time, the golden soldiers brought fifty ordinary siege ladders, which were enough to break through the city occupied by the mud-legged people.

On the city wall, Li Ying shouted: "Archers prepare!" ”

The banner waved on the head of the city, and the three thousand archers immediately put on the posture of archery, they were all righteous soldiers who had just been received, and they had only been trained for two days, they did not need to practice the head, as long as they shot the arrows to the city, and the content of their training was only one, when to prepare, when to release the arrows, and then the posture of the arrows, and the angle of the arrows.

The waving of the flag is the order to prepare, they need to take the posture of archery, and then wait for the order to release the arrow, and the command to release the arrow is the sound of the bangzi.

The archers stood in the back row of the city wall, and the two thousand combat soldiers stood at the battlements, they were the rebels who rebelled last time, and the 5,000 people selected from the 40,000 people were basically the former Song army soldiers, and after nearly two months of strict training, they had become qualified soldiers.

Another 5,000 soldiers lined up at the gates of the city, led by the five Liu brothers, ready to fight out of the city at any time.

10,000 gold soldiers are overwhelming, the momentum is very spectacular, so that the soldiers at the head of the city are nervous, tightly pinched the spear in their hands, as the so-called layman looks at the lively, the insider looks at the doorway, the Song soldiers who have participated in countless battles on the city head secretly shook their heads, came after a long journey, and attacked the city without rest, how can they withstand their physical strength?

Hou Jing whispered to Li Ying: "Jin Bing is too light on the enemy!" ”

Li Ying smiled slightly, "Maybe they think that the rebels are just a rabble that can be quickly defeated, so they don't need to make too much preparation." ”

"And when are we going to shoot the Heaven-Shattering Thunder?"

"Wait for them to gather and then project, and defeat them in one fell swoop!"

The two of them set a strategy and waited patiently for the enemy to come forward.

The Jin soldiers ran closer and closer, and had already entered within a hundred steps, Li Ying still did not give the order to fire arrows, and when the Jin soldiers ran into the fifty steps, Li Ying shouted, "Shoot arrows!" ”

The sound of bangzi sounded suddenly, three thousand archers have released arrows to the city, they are basically shooting to the sky at an oblique angle of sixty degrees, for a time the arrows are like rain, and they are overwhelming to the city, the golden soldiers under the city have no shield to resist, the cloth armor on the body can not withstand the projectile of the arrows, they have screamed and fallen to the ground, and the first round of firing shot down more than 500 people.

The archers at the head of the city heard the screams of the city, and they all trembled with excitement, and continued to shoot at the city with their bows and arrows.

Thousands of gold soldiers have attacked the city, a siege ladder on the city, at this moment, hiding behind the battlements of the thunderbolt shot, they lit the fire rope, threw out the flying fire thunder, one by one the flying fire thunder circled towards the siege ladder to fly, quickly wrapped around the siege ladder main column, with the explosion of flying fire and thunder, the siege ladder was suddenly blown up, can no longer continue to attack the city, these Han soldiers are on the battlefield for the first time, never seen the flying fire thunder, suddenly froze.

At this time, Li Ying saw that the 10,000 gold soldiers had basically gathered under the city, and he gave the order to launch the earth-shattering thunder.

'Bang! Bang! Bang! ’

A series of crashing sounds, ten earth-shattering thunders rose into the air, flying to the city head fifty steps away, the rebel soldiers on the city saw the earth-shaking thunder launched, they all lay on the ground to cover their ears, at this time, ten earth-shaking thunderbolts exploded on the top of the golden soldiers' heads, dense quenched iron nails shot at the surrounding soldiers, the iron nails penetrated the soldiers' cloth armor, shot into the body, the soldiers under the city suddenly screamed bitterly.

Immediately afterwards, Hou Jing ordered the second and third rounds of earth-shattering thunder strikes to be launched, and the battlefield was suddenly filled with thick smoke, and the screams resounded throughout the field, and thousands of uninjured Han soldiers were so frightened that they turned around and fled.

The west gate rumbled open, and Liu Da shouted: "Go out of the city and kill the enemy!" ”

Five thousand soldiers came out of the city, and they swung their swords and spears to sweep the frightened golden soldiers........

The 10,000 Han soldiers used to be all box soldiers, and they had no chance to go to the battlefield after surrendering to the Jin soldiers, and they had never seen the earth-shattering thunder.

At this moment, all the soldiers were frightened to the soul, the military heart was defeated, they just wanted to escape as far as possible, the five brothers Liu Da led 5,000 soldiers to kill out of the city, the Han soldiers were cornered, they knelt down and surrendered, and countless people were killed.

The battle was over after only an hour, and the soldiers happily cleaned up the battlefield and escorted the prisoners of war, at this time, Liu Da found Li Ying with two prisoners of war, gave a thumbs up and smiled: "The reinforcements are really powerful!" ”

Li Ying smiled slightly: "Actually, these earth-shattering thunders are nothing, it's just that these golden soldiers are too bad." ”

"Humph! A group of Song scum is just that. ”

Li Ying asked the two prisoners of war again, "Who are they?" ”

"They were pigeon slaves, responsible for distributing pigeon letters to Linfen County, and we also captured two pairs of carrier pigeons!"

Li Ying was overjoyed, he originally planned to send someone to Linfen to lie about the military situation, but now with the pigeon letter, it is even more foolproof, he hurriedly asked the two pigeon slaves, "Do you need your commander's handwritten letter?" ”

"There is no need to write a letter by hand, but a pigeon letter stamp is required, in a small wooden box in his horse bag."

Zhao Wenhui, the main general of the enemy army, had been killed by the bombing, and the war horse was also dead, Liu Da did not wait for Li Ying's orders, and immediately ran out, took a horse bag in a moment, and found a small wooden box from it.

Li Ying took it and opened it, and it was indeed a very small seal inside, "Is this it?" ”

The two soldiers nodded, "That's it, but two copies at a time." ”

Li Ying immediately wrote two letters of the same pigeon, stamped them, tied them tightly on the pigeon's legs, and the two carrier pigeons fluttered into the sky, circled twice and flew towards Linfen County.
