"Great hope, good news!" Li Chengwei rolled up his teeth like a gust of wind, and the sound was like a bell.

Xu Wei's personal soldiers were putting on armor for him, glanced at the other party, and said, "Don't say that the robe is framed." "It's not! Li Chengwei's face was overjoyed. Only then did the envoys of the two Xing armies arrive at the camp, reporting that Wang Anfu had broken through Longde Mansion, and the nearby states and counties had surrendered! This is indeed good news, as soon as the Lund Mansion is opened, the entire southeast of the river will be in the hands of the Western Army. However, thinking of the situation in front of him, Xu Wei frowned: "Wang Yan with two Xing and a lone division, he will break the Weisheng army and trap the Longde Mansion, where the main forces of Qin Feng and Yongxing are gathered, and there are tens of thousands of righteous troops, if you can't take Yangliang Beiguan again, your face will not look good." "The king can rest assured, the seventeen Weiyuan robes are all ready, just waiting for the king's order!" Li Chengwei said.

After putting on the armor, Xu Wei took the helmet and put it on his head, and walked out: "Go!" Look! ”

The scorching sun is in the sky, there are no clouds, and on the wide ground in front of Yangliang Beiguan Mountain, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Western Army are ready to move. The former low-lying area has disappeared, and with the efforts of the rebels, it has been completely filled. At this time, the seventeen mighty giant robes quietly stopped behind, just waiting for the fight.

Xu Wei walked through the formation until he arrived at the Chinese army, and Yang Yan, Zhang Xian, Wu Fu, Yang Zaixing and other generals saw him and bowed down one after another. Boarding the building car, overlooking the Guancheng, I saw that the defenders of the Guanshang were lined up, and the appearance of the giant crossbow could be clearly seen on the surface of the enemy platform and horses everywhere. He even saw clear smoke floating in many places on the city, and if he didn't guess wrong, he should be boiling oil.

Xu Wei gritted his teeth, this must be a vicious battle! He turned his head and called, "Yang Yan." ”

"Humble duty!" Yang Da took two quick steps and stood in front of him.

"After the robe attack, your Yongxing army will fight in the front. You and your officers should know that this battle is not easy to fight, and since you have taken the initiative to ask Ying to be the vanguard, I will say ugly things ahead. Those who are not allowed to retreat from the cowardice will be engaged in military law! Xu Wei said solemnly.

Yang Yan raised his head and said, "No matter what, this time I will win Yangliang Pass!" "Okay, let's go! Xu Wei waved his hand. Yang Yan strode away with a salute.

"Wu Phosphorus!" , Xu Wei called again.

"Humble duty!" Wu phosphorus responded.

"In the army, there should be a crossbow robe car, and you personally command. Be sure to cover the Yongxing army and suppress the defending enemy. You have enough arrows and firearms, don't save for me, fight as many as you want! Xu Wei ordered.

Wu Phosphorus responded and left. Xu Wei summoned Zhang Xian again and instructed: "Zongben, if the Yongxing army's offensive does not go well, you will command Qin Feng's army." Remember, the army can't be dragged here anymore! "Order! Zhang Xian also took the order and left.

After Xu Wei instructed a few more generals of the volunteer army, everything was ready, just waiting for the order. Xu Wei put up a pergola in his hand, looked at the sun, and said loudly: "Let's do it." ”

The military orders were issued layer by layer, and Wu Fu, who had already come to the crossbow array, got the order, pulled out the saber with a choked sound, and shouted violently: "Release the arrow!" ”

Rows of eight-bull giant crossbows, at the same time as this sound of drinking, the crossbowmen smashed the crossbow machine with wooden hammers! The three bows of these eight oxen crossbows are combined, and the force of twelve stones is over! I only heard the sound of the strings like a thunderbolt, and the three swords and arrows in the center and the six arrows on the left and right exploded!

Those soldiers of the rebel army who had seen such a big battle couldn't help but raise their heads and look at the arrows in the sky and roar towards the city! The power of the eight-bull crossbow is extremely great, it can shoot a thousand steps, and the giant arrow carries the momentum of thunder to destroy the golden cracking stone and penetrate the city wall!

As soon as the two rounds passed, Yang Yan, the former soldier, got the order and raised his knife and shouted: "Attack!" ”

With his shout, the soldiers of the Yongxing Army rushed towards the mountain like a huge wave! Everyone ran as fast as they could, because they knew that the rain of arrows from the defenders was coming! The soldiers scrambled to be the first, and soon swept through the filled depression and reached the foot of the mountain!

At this moment, the defenders arrowed! The same eight-bull crossbow, the same one shot and three swords and arrows, attacked with the power of piercing the golden stone! The soldiers only cared about the charge, and no one cared about where the arrows were shot! I only heard the screams of my companions, and I saw the robes that had been nailed into the ground by giant arrows one by one!

Because the power of the Eight Ox Crossbow is too great, after the soldier is hit by the arrow, he will not be angry for the time being, they are pierced through the body by the huge arrow, nailed to the surface, and both hands desperately pull the arrow shaft as thick as the barrel of a gun, but unfortunately, no matter how strong you are, you will not want to shake the score. I kept screaming until I lost my breath! The troops in front were still struggling to rush upward, and many people in the middle carried ladders, but one of them fell, and those behind automatically picked up.

Yang Yan saw behind him that his officers and soldiers were gradually wrapping around the hillside, but his face became heavier. Because the closer you are, the greater the danger! He looked behind him from time to time, hoping that Wei Yuanpao would enter the shooting range sooner, so that he could relieve the pressure on the troops who were close to him.

However, Wu Li, who was behind, obviously wanted the Yongxing army to attract as many bows and crossbows as possible from the defending enemy, so as not to be hit by the Eight Bull crossbows in the Weiyuan robe array, so he did not shoot for a long time.

When Yang Yan looked back again, the defending enemy had already begun to use bows and arrows, and in the crowd of people in the mountains, the soldiers fell one after another, but the shouting and killing did not weaken at all!

"Marshal, Fireball." , Li Cheng reminded in a whisper beside him.

Yang Yan naturally saw that on the city, the defenders pushed objects as big as dustpans onto the wall. After several previous attacks, the Western Army had learned the power of such a thing. In fact, it is not a mysterious device, but it is just a large ball made of hay, soaked in oil, and it can burn for a long time.

Soon, the grass balls were set on fire. In the short Guancheng, there are more than a dozen fires lit! Yang Yan gritted his teeth! The bow and crossbow can't make the Yongxing army disperse, but as soon as the fireball comes, it is unstoppable! Its lethality is not comparable to that of the crossbow at all, but the destruction of the offensive formation is the most ferocious!

More than a dozen fireballs were pushed down the city one after another! Take advantage of the terrain and roll down quickly! The soldiers of the Yongxing Army can be described as not indecent, they can be fearless of arrows and stones, but human nature, there is no one who is not afraid of water and fire. As soon as they saw a large fireball higher than a human rolling towards them, the soldiers instinctively dodged. The offensive formation suddenly dispersed!

At the same time, the crossbows were non-stop, shooting at the attacking troops. The defenders of the city, except for the crossbowmen, also carried the rolling logs and threw them down. The forward troops of the Yongxing Army are almost suffering from saturated attacks!

"Damn, why doesn't Wu Tangqing shoot yet!" Yang Yan jumped up.

"The handsome man rushed up!" , Liang Xing suddenly shouted.

Yang Yan fixed his eyes*, and saw that the troops at the forefront had arrived at the foot of Guancheng, and several ladders had been erected, and some brothers began to run up along the ladders! But soon, two ladders were knocked down! The soldiers who did not climb the ladder grabbed the shaft of the arrow that had been nailed into the city wall and took advantage of the opportunity to climb up.

The defenders of the city were well defended, which was not at the same level as the Jin army they had encountered before. The garrison of Yangliang Beiguan not only includes the Han army, but also the Khitan army and the Bohai navy. This is the last pass to stop the Western Army from attacking the Taiyuan Basin, how can the Jurchens not pay attention to it?

On the gate, the archers were divided into two rows and shot alternately; The giant crossbows arranged on the horses everywhere have also harvested their lives as quickly as possible; The other infantry troops, some threw stones and stakes downward, and some carried the battering rod to hit the ladder of the Western Army. The cooperation is very tacit, although there are many and miscellaneous people in the city, but under the command of the officers, each performs its own duties, showing a high tactical level.

And looking inside beyond the Guancheng, behind the thick city wall of this Yangliang North Pass, in addition to the soldiers who came and went to transport equipment special effects, there were also more reserve troops. Most of them sat on the ground, armed with instruments, and could rush up at any time if the city needed them.

However, judging from the previous battles, it may not be necessary. With the strength of Yangliang Pass, the western army will retreat in less than half a day.

In the town after the closure, the residents had already closed their doors and windows, the men were all sent to work for the Jin army, and the women and children could only hide at home, hoping that the battle would be over as soon as possible.

Wu Phosphorus has been paying close attention to the battle situation, he is the deputy marshal of Yongxing, how can the brothers who get along with him day and night not feel heartache? Seeing that the time had come, he shouted loudly: "Weiyuan robe! ”

Seventeen Weiyuan robes were slowly pushed forward under the crowd of soldiers. This giant machine, like a small hill, is like a squatting beast, about to make an earth-shattering roar! The soldiers shouted their trumpets rhythmically, and the robes moved forward step by step, immediately attracting the attention of the defenders of the city.

But at this time, they could no longer deal with the robe car with peace of mind. The Song army's close defense troops were always harassing, and people were climbing up at any time.

When the robes reached their predetermined positions, the robemen quickly drove piles to fix the giant robes, and the others quickly delivered the robes. The earth-shattering thunderbolts were put into leather cases, and the robes held torches in their hands, and Wangzi calibrated their positions, anxiously waiting for orders.

In every Weiyuan robe, there is a head in command, and they are also waiting for Wu Li's order.

When the war knife in Wu Jingluo's hand fell, the leaders couldn't wait to howl: "Ignite!" ”

Puffs of gunsmoke leveled up, sparks splashed, and the medicine line slowly extended forward......

"Put!" , this is the word that the robe hand is waiting for! Before they could finish speaking, they swung their swords and cut the ropes that bound the rods of their robes. As soon as the rope broke, the boulder hanging at the other end immediately sank, and the robe pole bounced violently! The earth-shattering thunder in the holster rose into the air, drawing an arc in mid-air, and the enclave fell towards Yang Liangguan.

After finishing the robes, the robes quickly prepared for the second blow. Together, everyone lifted the weight, stabilized the rod, filled the cannonballs, and the action was done in one go, like flowing water.

The bullets of the robes that rose into the air whizzed, and the defenders on the gate only vaguely felt some black dots coming from mid-air. Naturally, they knew that it was a robe bullet fired by the robe cart, but the tense battle in front of them forced them to have no time to care.

Thunderbolts swept over the heads of the defenders and fell behind the pass. In an instant, violent explosions sounded one after another, accompanied by a violent sense of vibration, so that the soldiers of the Jin Army who were struggling to stop it in the city couldn't help but look back. I didn't care about this, but I saw that the assembled reserve troops and the teams transporting supplies were scattering and fleeing!

They had been calmly waiting for the summons, but their comrades in the city warned them that a bullet was coming, and they became nervous. Among them, some of them were the ones who had withdrawn from Shaanxi with Han Chang, and they knew the power of the Western army's firearms, especially the kind of robes fired by robes, which were as loud as thunder and so powerful that they could be overturned with one robe.

But by the time they got up to dodge, it was clearly too late. The earth-shattering thunder exploded in the crowd, and the unfortunate people, whose flesh and blood were blurred in the violent explosion, were killed on the spot, and the lucky ones fled with their heads in their hands!

When the townspeople heard the earth-shattering noise, they opened a window and poked their heads out to see. How do you know that the robe does not have long eyes, and the strength of the robe is also different in size, and a sky-shattering thunder hit the town directly, blowing up half of the tile houses! The people who came back to their senses rushed out of the door, helping the old and the young to run backwards, and the new Jin army guard headquarters was set up in the town, and when he heard the loud noise, he knew that something was wrong. When he grabbed the door and took a look, he saw that his reserve troops had been torn apart, and the experienced ones quickly ran to the base of the wall, because this was the dead end of the robe-and-bullet attack. Some inexperienced ones were running around, and the second round of robes of the Western Army had already fallen.

The pass is not as good as the city. The city is generally square, and the interior is vast, and the walls are long. The Guancheng is built according to the geographical advantages, and it is jammed to rush, so it is relatively short, and some even have only one Guancheng, and there are no other ancillary buildings. Yang Liangguan is unfortunate, just like this.

There was nothing but a tall and sturdy gate, barracks built at the back, and a town with hundreds of families. And because there are mountains on both sides, the terrain behind this pass is narrow, and there is not much to hide from at all.

Unlike the chaos in the pass, the Yongxing army attacking outside had been beaten by the fierce attacks of the defenders before, and they were a little unable to raise their heads. When they heard the roar of the earth-shattering thunder, it was like hearing the sound of a majestic war drum! Everyone has a hundred times more courage and strives to be the first!

The ladder is knocked down, it doesn't matter, lift it up again and climb it again! If you think the ladder is in the way, just grab the pole and climb up! But if you climb over the city, as soon as you land, you don't care about anything, you will cut it first!

But the resistance of the defenders was still stubborn! Although Wei Yuan's robe has a long range, it has no precision to speak of. It can only guarantee that the robe bullet will hit the rear of the city, and if it wants to hit the head of the city directly, it can only be lucky.

The roar of robes and bullets, and the shouts of the soldiers of the two armies, resounded throughout the four fields. Those volunteers who participated in large-scale battles finally opened their eyes, and I have to admit that compared with the regular Western army, their so-called siege and land grabbing in the past are almost like dolls pretending to be family wine.! ~！ :
