Chapter 323: Blood Debt
When the reading horse team turned to the raised heights, the sight in front of them was also shocked! About two hundred steps away, there were one after another on the ground. of the "Little Hill". Of course, that can't be a mountain. Its shape is familiar to Matai, once upon a time the small river outside Xujiazhuang passed by, a flat and fertile field, after the autumn harvest, the croppers would pile up the straws in this shape. Thin at the top and thick at the bottom. It's like a tower.
But these towers were not piled up with straws.
Dozens of paces away, quite a few soldiers had already covered their mouths and noses. Mattei's face was not wrinkled, there was no expression, even the scars were straight. He didn't seem to react to the stench in his face, and went straight to the horse and ran to a "tower". There are dozens of towers like this on this ground. They're all piled up with corpses,
Ma Er rolled over and jumped off the horse, carefully examining the corpses that were stacked together in front of him. Among them, there are old men, men and women, there are rebels with scabbards hanging from their waists, and there are also unarmed people. They all have one thing in common. That's a hot climate, highly rotten!
The corpses, the Hujie soldiers have seen a lot. It doesn't matter if it's an enemy or a comrade. But the corpse of maggots crawling out of the mouth, nostrils, and eye holes was the first time I saw it. One of the cavalrymen behind him immediately vomited, and Mattei turned sideways. A backhand slap in the face! If you want to vomit, swallow it for me!
What are the Jurchens doing? The two countries are at war. Corpses are everywhere, and it is not uncommon for birds and beasts to devour them. Posed in this shape, what message does Jin Jun want to send to us? Demonstrate? Flaunt? Provocation?
"How far is it from Fangzhou City?" Mattei clenched the long axe in his hand, and the anger in his tone could be clearly felt by anyone.
Back in the capital, an officer replied only for more than ten miles.
Mattei glanced at the corpses of Tallinn again, and said through gritted teeth, "Stop moving forward and wait for the commander to decide." "Great. The city is also a Jin army stationed here in the thousands. The main trick is to exterminate the rebel army, and as an outpost of the Shuaifu, to monitor the actions of Chang'an.
At this time, the head of the city was full of Jin army soldiers, looking down from the city. Outside the city, the Song army, which was constantly converging, had completely surrounded the southern city. At the front, the soldiers were nervously reorganizing the siege equipment, which contained trenches, bridges, rushing carts, goose carts and other objects that the Jin army was also very familiar with.
"Look at the front of the enemy tower in the main city of the military flag, a ** Jin army general with his upper body and showing his muscles as thick as iron pointed to the battle flag in the enemy formation and said. The officers around him looked in the direction, and those who had fought with the Tiger Jie Army recognized that this was the military flag of the Purple Golden Tiger.
"Looking at the formation, there are a lot of Western troops, do you want to ask for help from Foot State?" An officer asked tentatively. Their troops, for the control of Wanyan's concubines, the battle of Dingrong, ate Xu Wei's big 5.
The half-naked general was very reluctant to bask his mouth, the Hu'er army is the great enemy of the Jurchens, and now Xu Wei is in person, and the troops in the city are less than 3,000 people, I am afraid that I really have to move troops to the prime minister.
After thinking for a while, he ordered: "Send the rangers to the foot state, inform the minister of state, and say that the Purple Golden Tiger will lead the army to attack." Then order the soldiers of the whole city to prepare for battle, and be sure to stick to Fangzhou
Xu Wei leaped ahead of the whole army, and the beastly actions of the Jin Army angered the Purple Gold Tiger. After joining up with Mattei, he led his front army to reconnoiter under the city of Fangzhou. Fangzhou City is facing water on both sides of the east and west, and if you want to attack the city, you can only start from the south city. This is for the big army. Not very easy to unfold. It is difficult to siege the city. However, he was not worried about the new firearms in his hand, although the mature gunpowder was far from leading the troops into the era of hot weapons, it would have a great impact on the attack and defense of the city. Xu Wei is very confident in this. Therefore, after Xu Yuan led the troops to arrive. The three brothers joined forces to encircle the southern city of Fangzhou, set up equipment, set up robe cars, and prepared to enter the city.
"Mattei." Xu Jiu lifted his helmet with a horsewhip and called loudly.
"The humble post is in Ma Erhu's roar.
"Lead your horse army, go around the river, and block the passage for the golden dog to flee north." Xu Wei stared at the Jin army at the head of the city and gritted his teeth. Lao Tzu let Fangzhou City Chicken not stay today!
Seeing this, Xu Yuan immediately ordered the robe troops at the forefront of the whole army to prepare for the attack. The scale of the robe group is very large, and in a short period of time, Xu Jiajun has set up hundreds of three-to-five robes. Because in the past, in order to avoid the bows and crossbows at the head of the city, and in order to achieve the purpose of destroying and deterring, the robe chariot had to be at least seven or more, or even ten; The giant robe of the tip. Shoot stone bullets ranging from tens of catties to 100 catties. But this time, what was placed next to the robe car was the newly made "earth-shaking thunder" of the Shaanxi Huadu Academy, each of which was less than ten catties. A robe with three pins and five pins is enough to hit the city.
At the head of the city, the soldiers of the various tribes of the Jin army held longbows. Buckle the bowstring and draw the arrow. Under the city, the Song army's vanguard siege troops were already ready with entrenchment bridges, rushing carts, goose carts and other equipment, just waiting for the robes and carts to strike in advance, and then they would flock up.
The fourth day of the sixth month, the county.
Since the Jin army made a comeback and reoccupied the city, this large city ranked first in the six roads of Shaanxi has been shrouded in an atmosphere of terror. As the marshal mansion of the Dajin Kingdom, this city was not slaughtered like Fangzhou. But there are very few pedestrians in the market, and even if a few appear occasionally, there is no need to talk or even make eye contact. Because the golden soldiers of the brigade patrolled around them.
There is no escape, and as soon as the Jurchens came, they blocked the four gates, and they were only allowed to enter but not to leave. Anyone who tries to flee the county will be killed. When Qu Dutong retreated, most of the officials assigned surrendered, and now they are maintaining the situation for the Jin people. It is said that Yan'an Mansion will not last long, the Jin army will attack fiercely, and several other marshals will refuse to come to help, and it will be a matter of time before Langyan will completely fall all the way
Feeling. After Sticky Han entered the city, the original transfer department in Langzhou City was set up as the marshal's mansion, and all the combat orders of the Jin army were issued here. Before a fast horse galloped to the Shuaifu, the knight on horseback was vigorous, and flew down almost at the same time as the reins were stopped, and saw that there was a Mouke officer on duty in front of the Shuaifu, and he couldn't take a breath, and stepped forward and saluted: "The Western Army is attacking Fangzhou!" ”
When the centurion heard this, his face showed surprise, and he asked, "Western Army?" Not the thieves of Shaanxi? ”
"It's the Western Army! The leading general will be the Purple Tiger Xu Wei". The messenger replied gasping. The centurion did not dare to ask any more questions, and as he walked towards the marshal's mansion, he shouted, "Come with me." (To be continued)
