Chapter 963: Ambush
"Woohoo! Woooooo Woo............"
In the poignant sound of the horn, the soldiers of the Jin Army, who were stimulated by the military order, sacrificed their lives to fight under the walls of Tangchi Fort, and at the same time, the battle flag of the Jin Army, which had just been knocked down by a golden krait rocket, was also re-erected, although the position was slightly back from before, but it still put on a forward posture facing Tangchi Fort.

Wanyan Zongpan had already changed a pair of pants at this time, and he was still standing under the Daxu battle flag, looking at Tangchi Fort with a gloomy face. And the generals of the Jin Army behind him stood far behind Zong Pan with a frightened face, and they all looked at Wan Yan Zongpan's back with unpredictable eyes.
The Golden Krait rocket just now did fall and exploded less than twenty steps away from the Jin Army's Daxu battle flag, but unfortunately, the distance of twenty steps was indeed too far, so it only caused the guards carrying the Daxu battle flag to throw away the battle flag in a panic, and a group of Jurchen generals also fled in all directions.
As for Zong Pan, because he ran a few seconds in advance, not only did he have nothing to do, but even the mount was not surprised, and even he slashed the guards who lost the Daxu battle flag with one sword, and re-erected the Daxu battle flag, and this is also the reason why the generals are now looking at Zong Pan's back in shock.
On the battlefield, a commander who can anticipate danger is undoubtedly a big bug for an army with an invincible effect!
"Daddy! The firearms of the Song army just now are also powerful! Among the generals, Guo Anguo, the son of Guo Yaoshi, was holding a fragment of a golden snake rocket in his hand at this time, and he was looking at it carefully, and his fingers rubbed it carefully on the fragment and said: "If this thing falls within ten steps of me, I am afraid that it will not be able to live even if it is wearing two layers of armor!" ”
Guo Yaoshi agreed, turned his head to look at the fragment in Guo Anguo's hand, but turned his head to the other side and asked, "Zijin, can you see what kind of equipment this thing was fired from, is it a bed crossbow or a stone thrower?" ”
Guo Zijin, the daughter of Guo Yaoshi, was wearing a Liao standard general armor at this time, still carrying a pair of double knives and wearing a red tasseled helmet, so she stood on the right side of Guo Yaoshi, and when she heard the words, she also replied: "But I didn't see it clearly, but I saw that this weapon was like a big arrow, flying from afar...... It is said that when this big arrow flies, there seems to be fireworks at the tail, and my daughter looks a little like 'fire'! ”
"Fire?" Guo Yaoshi frowned when he heard this, and asked, "Are you talking about the kind of 'fire' that was set when the Song people sacrificed the fire?" ”
The so-called "fire" is a kind of gunpowder toy similar to a cupola that has appeared in the Song Dynasty, and the Song people have to set a "fire" to celebrate every New Year's holiday. This kind of toy is shelled with a bamboo tube, and the inside is filled with propellant, which will take off after ignition, but at this time, the folk "fire" toy can only smoke and take off, and cannot make a sound like a sound or explosion.
Just when Pharmacist Guo was still thinking about how Song Jun transformed the toy-like "fire" into such a sharp weapon, he heard Zhen Wuchen beside him suddenly say: "General, something is wrong!" ”
"What's wrong?" Guo Yaoshi, who was interrupted from his train of thought, couldn't help asking, Zhen Wuchen also took two steps forward and pointed to Tangchi Fort and said: "This is another team of four thousand people, and counting the people and horses on the city wall, I am afraid that there are more than two hundred, why don't you see the beacon smoke signal rising in the city, let alone anyone raising the flag?" ”
According to the Jin army's tactics of siege, after breaking through the defense of the defending troops and climbing to the top of the city to occupy the stronghold, there will be special people responsible for lighting beacon smoke and waving battle flags on the city to guide the direction of attack for the follow-up attacking troops. As far as Zhen Wuchen and others have seen, not to mention the four thousand troops reinforced behind at this time, the two thousand "Bo Jin Army" who started alone saw that many people climbed up the city along the siege ladder, why didn't anyone light the beacon smoke and raise the flag?
Suddenly, Guo Yaoshi also saw the clue, and after thinking about it, he also had the courage to move his mount to take a few steps forward and came behind Wanyan Zongpan, pointed to the city and said, "Deputy marshal, look, the city looks a little inappropriate!" Why did I see our army on the top of the city, but no one lit the beacon smoke? ”
Wanyan Zongpan heard what Guo Yaoshi said, and he also got up with his mind, but unfortunately they didn't have a telescope in their hands, so they could only observe it with the naked eye, at a distance of 16,700 steps, all they could see was a group of ant-sized figures writhing on a thick wooden stick, and it was completely impossible to see what was happening in the city now.
However, no matter what Yan Zongpan said, he is also the deputy marshal of the Jin Army, although he is Wu Qimai, but he is not a gentleman***, but a proper military generation, when even he pointed the horsewhip in his hand to Tangchi Fort and shouted: "Ulnu, you take a hundred people up to see what is going on!" ”
Immediately, he looked at a Jurchen general wearing armor on the side and shouted loudly, and then roared and led more than a hundred cavalry to rush towards Tangchi Fort.
When this Urinu led more than 100 horsemen and horses to the city, he also found that now the battle was as hot as usual in the city and under the city, and the Jin army formed a shield formation with shields under the city, covering the archers to counterattack at the same time, and constantly organized people to climb the siege ladder to rush to the city, and the Song army on the city continued to shoot out the bed crossbow at the same time, but also used the god arm bow, stone, wood and hot grease to counterattack, the battle situation was extremely fierce and normal, the only abnormal place is that although I saw that people were constantly climbing the city, But I didn't see the beacon smoke rising and the battle flag dancing in the city, let alone anyone coming down.
The Urinu had come on horseback, and after approaching a distance of about fifty or sixty paces below the city, he quickly turned over and dismounted, and rushed to the wall with his shield on his shoulder, and after observing the surroundings, he immediately instructed a dozen of his own soldiers around him to quickly take over a siege ladder, and then saw him put the shield on his back, and bit the war knife in his mouth, and climbed to the city with his hands and feet.
In the process of climbing, he quickly figured out the number of attacks of the Song army's Ruyi stick, and with just a few moves, he quickly avoided three consecutive assassinations from different positions and directions, and then quickly jumped onto the city.
How do you know that he climbed the city head to support the wall and looked, he was immediately dumbfounded, not only there are no ghosts behind the city wall, but also a large slope with a very peculiar angle, and then look at the Jin soldiers who are screaming and climbing up to the city, all of them are caught off guard and slid down the slope like a rolling gourd, life and death are unknown.
Stunned, Ulnu hurriedly turned around and said to the soldiers who followed behind him: "Retreat!" There is an ambush! ”
Before he could say anything, Urinu felt a sudden pain in his back, and then his body was carried by the force that made him extremely painful and fell off the city.
