Chapter 265: Earth-shattering

The impact of the drought in Hedong and Shaanxi in the past two or six years "is the winter moon at the moment, but it is much warmer than the year of waiting." Even so, the soldiers guarding the city had to endure the cold winds. Standing for a long time, the cotton clothes in the heavy armor can't play much role in keeping out the cold, but the soldiers all know that the attack and defense of the city is not a matter of three or five days, it may be three or five months. Or even a year or two.

Before dawn, the weather is at its lowest during the day. Before the first rays of dawn shine through the clouds, the soldiers must survive the coldest hours. Every sixty steps or so of the city wall, there is a rectangular pier platform that protrudes outward, and the distance from the main wall is about two zhang up and down, called. This is to allow the defenders to attack the enemy who climbs the wall from the side and eliminate dead ends. The horse face is also known as the crossbow platform. Because it's like a bed crossbow. High-powered long-range devices such as the Divine Arm Bow are often placed in some places.

At this time, on a horse face in the western city of Binh Duong, the crossbowmen were retracting their hands into their sleeves and stomping their feet from time to time. One by one, the frozen red noses kept snorting, damn, the number of golden dog robes is increasing day by day, look outside the city, there are good things to be counted, there are more than three hundred and forty that can be seen. If these robes are advanced to within range. At the same time, it will be like rain.

"It's time to eat, right?" One crossbowman was so frozen that his whole body shrunk into a ball. It's just cold on this body, there is no goods in the stomach, and there is no heat in the internal organs like ice bumps. It's unbearable.

"Foodie! Your role is to ask three times a day, "It's time to eat?" A colleague quipped.

The crossbowman was about to fight back when he suddenly heard a commotion and hurriedly turned around to look out of the city. Throughout the West City, the defenders were in a commotion. Most of them leaned against the female wall and looked out. The crossbowman let out a snort, and scurried to the back of the bed crossbow, holding the crossbow machine in one big hand, but he would not listen to it because of the cold. Spat twice into his palm, he shouted, "Twist the string!" on the arrow". Two assistants, one on the left and one on the right, turned the winch with all their might, fastened the bowstring to the crossbow machine, and then placed a crossbow arrow as long as an iron spear in the arrow groove. This equipment was originally used for cavalry shooting, and an arrow was crucified to the ground with men and horses!

The shouts of the officers rang out. The city was suddenly boiling, and the Jin army was about to seize the city! The archers stand at the forefront and remove the hard bow from their backs. Draw the feather arrow from the quiver and place it on the string. Come on. Waited so many days. Those donkey days outside the city are finally going to start!

Yang Yan had one red eye, reached out to wipe the eye droppings from the corner of his eye, and looked out of the city. After a night of vigilance, he just took a nap and ran into the Jin Jun Kou City, did the Golden Dog deliberately not let Lao Tzu squint for a while? Far away. The camps of the Jin army were alive all over the place, and there was a faint uproar. In the mist, the black shadows were moving slowly towards the city, Yang Yan was completely sleepy, and turned around and shouted: "Robe car!" Get ready! Commanders! Like! ”

The sound of the horn came and went, the sound got closer and closer, and the black shadows gradually became clear.

That's a lot of robes! Yang Yan couldn't help but gasp. The Jurchens have more than ten times more equipment than me! Straight lady thief, this is an iron heart to break through from Xicheng!

Under the city, the sound of trumpets rang out. The Song army rode the robe chariots and quickly took up the battle position, and the commanders of the robe chariots also rushed to the city to prepare to guide the robe attack. The stone bullets have been put into a holster. The ends of the robe had been pulled tightly. Just wait for an order. And on the two sheep and horse walls in front of the main wall, the soldiers of the rebel army are also waiting with their weapons. Pingyang, like a beast with a hunched back, may fight back at any time in the face of an aggressive enemy!

Suddenly! A black dot rises in the mist! Grow bigger and bigger! When the stone projectile slashed over the heads of the defenders and fell into the city with a loud noise, the soldiers knew. This is the Jin Army in a test launch, and after adjusting the distance, a large-scale salvo is about to begin!

Clenching the weapons in their hands, the defenders couldn't help but feel their hearts beat faster, and some even took a deep breath. Sooner or later, you can't hide! Yang Yan lifted the skin eye patch that Xu Wei gave him, revealing a scarred eye socket. You clumsy birds. What means are there, grandpa is trying to avenge this eye!

"Squat!" It was estimated that the group of robes and cars was about to shoot a volley, and his voice spread in all directions. All the soldiers guarding the city squatted down one after another, using the female wall as a barrier. Peek into enemy movements. The soldiers seemed to be able to hear the heartbeat of their comrades beside them, since they had been following and recruiting the prime minister. I haven't defended the city properly, and I don't know which one is more difficult than this city defense battle or the field battle? Soon, the answer was revealed.

Under the vigilant gaze of the defenders of Binh Duong. Over the Jin Army's elm car position, vacate! It struck in the direction of the city at a very fast speed! When the black dots turned into stone bullets and roared overhead, even the sky was dark! The loud and continuous roar was deafening, and the crunch of tiles falling to the ground continued one after another. Some soldiers looked back and saw that the city of Binh Duong was like an earthquake, and houses were collapsing one by one. Kick up a huge amount of smoke! It's just a salvo!

The soldier turned his head, and suddenly his eyes went black, and then a force like a landslide and tsunami shattered his whole body! With a scream, he and his comrades were pushed off the city by this damn stone bullet, and there were no bones left!

"Fight back! The robe car fights back! "Commander Yang's roar can always be loud in the most chaotic scenes.

Some soldiers hid behind the female wall, closed their eyes tightly, clenched their teeth, every time a stone bullet hit the city wall, they deleted the bow and trembled involuntarily, and more people couldn't help but look backwards, and the stone bullets that rose up under the city of Handan fell towards the Jin army robe car position with his revenge!

Yang Yan did not avoid the stone bullets, ran above the city, except for the stone bullets that covered the sky, he did not appear a single enemy soldier, did not appear a single enemy goose cart. Only the robe hits the city? When I was wondering, I heard someone shouting "Beware". Before he could react, he suddenly felt that his whole body had become extremely heavy, and his majestic body couldn't bear it, and he fell down! There was a sudden loss of light in front of him. Completely plunged into darkness.

"Save the system! Save the system! I vaguely heard the anxious shouts of my subordinates, and there was a glimmer of light in front of me.

Several hands grabbed him at the same time, and he struggled to get up, and finally got up. The dust on his body kept jumping down, and the scum in his eyes forced him to tears.

After spitting and spitting out the debris that had been stuffed into his mouth, he found himself standing in a pile of rubble, and suddenly looked back! The enemy tower behind him. Half a corner has been blown apart by stone bullets. And he, very lucky enough to stand right underneath, was buried. If it weren't for the sturdy armor on his body, he would be crushed to death, not necessarily. Injuries are inevitable. The subordinates around him all looked at him nervously, everyone's eyes were full of shocked looks, Yang Yan frowned, and the remaining one eye glared at the boss. scolded: "Lao Tzu has died once!" Picked up this life. Fight with the Golden Dog to the end! ”

This sentence caused a round of applause, but it was immediately overwhelmed by a whizzing stone bullet, and the Jin army's robes were too fierce. It's overwhelming! Compared to the overwhelming attacks of the enemy. The return fire of my robe car is like the moaning of a girl!

This is not the case!

In the position of the military robe car, the crowded heads were the robes of the Jin Army. Once upon a time, they served as the pathfinder of the great army, and they were the backbone of the siege! Generally speaking, they do not participate in hand-to-hand combat, and there are few precedents for large-scale casualties! In many siege battles, they are only responsible for the early suppression of the robes, and as for the subsequent climbing, breaking down, and street fighting, it is someone else's business.

But this time, facing Binh Duong. As the first attack batch of the whole army, they were also the first to be counterattacked! Another scream rang out not far away, indicating that another fellow of the robed cart had been hit by a stone bullet from the defenders. Although the 100-pound stone bullet is not big, it has great power when it falls from the sky! If you hit someone, smashing it into a meatloaf will never blow it out. And if it hits the robe directly, the loss will be even greater, and the wooden robe will never be able to withstand the attack of a stone bullet. Whether it hits the chassis or the crossbar, this robe car is basically useless.

More than 300 robes bombarded Pingyang one after another, collapsing the enemy towers of the Song army, missing the female wall of the Song army, and suppressing them all like shrunken turtles! But the guard's robes hidden in the inner wall. Likewise fighting back all the time. The opponent's stone bullet is like an eye-pop, and it will land wherever it is dense! The robed hands are unprotected and cannot be transferred, they must stand in place, waiting for the stone bullets to be filled and then pull the ends of the robe. Moreover, because they were facing the robe and facing away from the city, they didn't know if there were stone bullets, so they couldn't dodge.

A bang! Attracting the attention of the Bohai Soldier general, Da Tuo Bujia, a flash of anger flashed on his face, and a pair of eyes almost wanted to erupt with fire. Another robe car has been reimbursed, and this is already the fourth!

"Boom! Collapse the city walls! Fill in the city! His roar resounded through the four fields!

The soldiers faithfully carried out the orders of their commanders, and the soldiers of the various ethnic groups of the Jin army showed extremely high fighting courage, or rather, the cruelty and fierceness peculiar to the northern peoples. A stone bullet struck the crowd of robbers in a golden-robed car, who paid no attention to the corpses of their companions. Immediately pick up this stone bullet sent by the Song army and fill it in the holster, and then return it to the defenders!

The robe attack continued, just one morning, on the west city of Pingyang, there was no longer a complete enemy tower, and the female wall was also bombarded in dozens of places, as for the damage to the houses in the city, it was simply countless! But the defenders gradually adapted to this offensive and defensive battle, at least to this environment, this atmosphere. After all, the sports car is only a mechanical equipment that relies on manpower, and there is no precision at all, plus manpower is large and uncontrollable, so the probability of a stone projectile directly hitting the head of the city is very high, and the hundreds of robes of the Jin army have been bombarded continuously for a morning. There are thousands of stone bullets, right? But it didn't inflict many casualties on the defenders, it was only the fortifications and morale that were hit!

On the other hand, the Jin army, after half a day, destroyed 31 robe cars and killed more than 800 soldiers, but the Song army's robe cars are estimated to be less than a fraction of theirs! This is due to Wang Yu's "unprecedented innovative tactics of making robes with robes, which will inevitably have a huge impact on the offensive and defensive battles of the city from now on!"

The fog has cleared. Yang Yan squatted under the women's wall, only half of his head was exposed to look at the Jin Jun's position. Beside him, there were soldiers who recorded the destruction of every robe and cart of the enemy, and thirty-one marks were clearly visible on the inner wall. "Get out of the way!" With a loud shout, Yang Yan pushed his subordinates beside him. I also went out with Park. There was a loud noise behind him, and the flying stone chips hit his body as if he had been hit with a stick. Looking back, the buttress teeth are gone! But after this blow, the blue sky above his head suddenly became quiet, don't fight?

Quickly climb up. Looking out of the city, I saw that all the robes and carts of the Jin army had stopped bombarding. Isn't the golden dog going to eat? After pulling the robe for most of the day, Hua Hang Ba forgot that you are not hungry! Damn, the brothers didn't even eat the breakfast ring, so they stopped eating and then shot at each other! Lao Tzu will fight with you to the end!

Just wanted to order. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of another troop and horse driving into the position of the opponent's robe cart, and the original robe operators retreated one after another. When he realized what Jin Jun wanted to do. I saw a stone bullet rise into the air again! Fuck the golden dog. This is to bombard Binh Duong in turn!

Just when the defenders were constantly attacking the Jurchens, Xu Weizheng convened Si Wenwu to discuss countermeasures. All morning, their ears were filled with the sound of stone bullets hitting the houses of the city, so that the staff, who were initially frightened with earthy faces, became accustomed to it, and were calm and calm under the fierce robes of the Jin army. Eloquent.

Xu Wei sat behind the handsome case with a solemn expression, and Du Feihu protected him with his knife every step of the way.

Next, the civil and military dignitaries of the Recruitment Division sat down according to their official ranks, with different expressions. Some are calm, some are frowning, some are expressionless, and some are sad.

After Yang Yan sent people to brave stone bullets to report the results, Xu Wei was happy and worried. Happily, the tactic of making robes with robes proved to be effective in the end, and it was the right thing to use. And worry, also because of this tactic.

In warfare in the Cold Weapon Age, if one side decides to hold on to the city, it is usually because the other side is far inferior in troops. If I also have 78,000 or even 100,000 horses, then I will go directly to the field battle with the concubine. Why defend the city? Holding on to a city is also a passive defense, and your greatest achievement is nothing more than ensuring that the city is not lost and that you cannot defeat the enemy in front of you. If you say that the sky is broken, at most it will be a heavy blow to the enemy.

And "robes made of robes." The tactics have shown their negative side today. That is, it occupies too many troops, taking the robe with a range of more than 300 paces as an example, a robe needs to be killed about 250 people, how many should ten martyrs? There are more than 20 such robes in Xicheng fighting back against the Jurchens!

The total strength of Binh Duong is only more than 30,000 people. This is still counting Shao Yi's Zezhou Rebel Army, and the Xicheng robe car alone accounted for nearly half of the troops in the inner city of Pingyang! Now the Jurchens are attacking the city almost all the time, but the other side has changed a group of troops, and our army is still holding on! These brethren are pulling crackers on empty stomachs!

Man is iron, rice is steel, and no matter how brave and good a soldier is, it is impossible not to eat. Now that the gang leader has prepared a meal, but he can't send it to Xicheng, the Jurchens want to consume the Song army and hit morale through the numerical advantage of robes and cars! Vicious!

There was silence in the festival hall. Only the rhythmic sound of Xu Wei's fingers gently tapping on the board shook everyone's heartstrings.

"It seems that the Jurchens want to bombard for several days in a row. Xu Wei opened his mouth to break the zombie. As soon as he spoke, many people below breathed a sigh of relief, and adjusted the sitting posture that had been maintained for a long time, making the whole body a little numb.

The Jin army has sufficient troops, and the robes will not stop Wang Yu did not have the slightest intention of intimidating his colleagues, but when this sentence came out, many people still sweated. If it continues like this, even the tallest city walls will be filled! But then he said a sentence that put down the hanging hearts of his colleagues.

"But before the war, our army had collected all the slightly larger stones within a radius of more than ten miles! The Jin Army's dense robe attacks couldn't last long! According to my estimates, in two days at most, the enemy's infantry will capture the city. ”

Listen to the means before and be a little relieved, and after listening to the means, swallow your spit. Two days? It's going to take two more days to get through this situation! Listen to the sound! Don't say two days, only one day. It's enough to make the soldiers scared!

Seeing the whispers of his colleagues, Wang Yu smiled and said, "What is this? In the battle of Taiyuan, the Jurchens bombarded day and night! ”

What! And around the clock! You mean that the night doesn't stop at night? Xu Wei couldn't help jumping in his heart, although the robes of the Jin army did not constitute many casualties to our army, if it was so bombarded day and night, it would be a heavy blow to morale! It is no wonder that the Jurchens are often invincible in seizing the city, and if they play like this, they will first use robes and carts to bombard him for a few days, and then raise a large army to make all kinds of equipment flood in, who is not frightened?

"Shut up!" There was a loud shout, and the hall was suddenly silent. Xu Wei looked around at the civil and military forces for a week, and his eyes stayed on Wang Yu's face the most.

"In your experience, how long can a robed hand hold up?.

Wang Yu replied truthfully: "Half a day! Half a day at most! Half a day later, the strength of the robe hand dropped rapidly, and it could no longer reach the maximum range of the robe car. The robe hand in Xicheng must be changed immediately! Soldiers at the head of the city. Food must also be served as soon as possible! ”

This is easier said than done. The Jin army has a watchtower, and the watchman on it is always monitoring the city of Pingyang, and all the movements of troops and horses are in his eyes. If troops are sent to reinforce Xicheng, they will be attacked by stone bullets, and they will also reveal the military situation in the city to the Jin army. A famous general like Concubine Su, after two days, he can roughly judge the strength of the defenders through my transfer of troops in a few days.

The Jurchens' reputation for being good at fighting really didn't come out just by stepping on horses' hooves! "It's easy to deliver food, although the Jin army's robe is fierce, but the robe is fixed after all, and there are always dead ends in attack. Let people explore first. Find a suitable route for an episode. Let the food be sent to the city, Yang Yan is estimated to be so hungry that he scolds his mother, Xu Wei pretended to laugh lightly. Someone below laughed a few times, and then heard the prince ask: "This is a change of robe."

It was not difficult for one person to take over the conversation, but everyone looked at it, but it was Ma Kuo. If you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the heart than the heart, and there are more chapters. Support the author. Support genuine reading!
