Chapter Ninety-One: Reinforcements
On the north bank wall, Guo Yaoshi and a group of generals accompanied the commander of the Jin Army's Eastern Route Army to pay close attention to the battle. When he saw the Jurchen soldiers using their shields as cover, and suppressing the archers of the Song army on the south bank with strong bows and crossbows, and then advancing continuously, his face was pale. It was he who offered this method of warfare.
Seeing that the Song army on the other side was restrained, he said a few words happily, and the Han official beside him reluctantly explained to Guo Yaoshi that the second prince was praising you for being resourceful, and it was a gift from God to the Jurchens. On the day of success, he will play the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom to ask for merit for you. Pharmacist Guo was overjoyed when he heard this, and after thanking him, he looked at the other side again. At most, after one more meal, the Jin army will surely attack the southern bank barrier. From now on, you can go straight to Tokyo!
According to the style of the Zhao official family, as long as the Jurchen iron cavalry approached Tokyo, he would inevitably send an envoy to sue for peace. At that time, whatever conditions we offer, he will certainly accept them in full. At present, there is a shortage of food and grass in the army, and the soldiers are hungry with black beans, crossing the Yellow River, approaching Tokyo, not to mention anything else, let the first Zhao Guan's family take out the money and grain. Wouldn't it be nice to eat the food of the Han people and attack the cities of the Han people?
At this time, he couldn't help but shout when he couldn't help but shout when he saw that the obstacle that had been crossing the bridge deck and had blocked Dajin Tie Riding for several days had been removed! Behind him, General Jin responded loudly and laughed! The Han official was also overjoyed, and said with a smile: "The second prince said that he had attacked the Yellow River, broken Tokyo, and drank with the kings!" ”
Guo Yaoshi is full of ambition, today I have made meritorious contributions, and I am familiar with the internal affairs of the Southern Dynasty, if the Jurchens want to sweep away the Song court, they must fake my hands. After crossing the Yellow River, I may be given great power! When the soldiers are in the city, I want to see what Zhao Guan's family looks like when they see me. The more I thought about it, the happier I became, and I couldn't help but laugh out loud. I was humiliated by the defenders of the south bank last night, and the boredom in my heart was swept away at this time!
While the crowd was rejoicing, a golden general hurried up to the city, whispering something to the priest. When the latter heard this, his expression changed drastically! grabbed the golden general, shouted and asked, and after listening, he let go suddenly, and his face was cloudy. The Jin generals around him were gossiping, and Pharmacist Guo didn't understand the Jurchen language, so he could only watch and be anxious. After thinking for a while, he suddenly looked up at him and spoke very quickly. Han Guan explained, You Sentinel found out that more than ten miles away a large army was beating drums and advancing, rushing here! Flags spread all over the ground, covering the sky and the sun! It's hard to know what it's really about!
Pharmacist Guo was also surprised! Could it be that the Seed Master Dao led the army to come to reinforcements? Counting the days, he should have arrived a long time ago, but until now, has he recruited a large army? This is not the right time, and now the Jin army is trying its best to seize the pontoon bridge, and there is no room for failure!
As soon as he thought of this, he said to Zhu Li: "Your Highness! It must be the reinforcements of the division road, and now that our army is about to seize the pontoon bridge, we must not retreat lightly. I suggest that elite horsemen be sent to block and pinn down. If it decisively goes to war, stop it no matter what! As long as we take the pontoon bridge, even if he has a million soldiers, he can't help it! ”
After the Han official did not explain to him, he was silent. This southern expedition was originally to seize the land of Yanyun, as well as important towns such as Taiyuan Zhending. I didn't expect that the Song army would be so vulnerable, and it would be considered to have met real resistance all the way to the Yellow River. After the fierce attack in the past few days, the troops suffered thousands of casualties, and seeing that the capture was imminent, they naturally could not give up lightly. But even if the army crosses the Yellow River and rushes straight to Tokyo, and the reinforcements from the Planter Dao have arrived, how can it be good to be attacked by the enemy at that time?
When Pharmacist Guo heard this concern, he categorically affirmed: "The prince doesn't have to worry! The Southern Dynasties are strong and weak! As long as our army can approach Tokyo, the Song court will inevitably sue for peace! The Zhao Guanjia will definitely restrain the army and order that confrontation with our army is strictly prohibited. At that time, the crown prince put forward the conditions of peace, ordering him to cede the military town and increase the huge amount of coins, I expect that the Song court is eager to sue for peace, and will not refuse! With these benefits, our army might as well retire temporarily and come back next year! Year after year, if the Southern Dynasty is not wiped out, it will not give up! ”
I am glad to leave without hearing words! When Pharmacist Guo first descended, he claimed to be familiar with the reality of the Southern Dynasty and could help. At that time, I was still skeptical, but now after listening to these words, I know that Pharmacist Guo is indeed talented! Immediately promised him that if this matter is successful, you, Pharmacist Guo, will also guard Yanshan! He also sent elite cavalry to contain the Song army, and sounded the horn to motivate the soldiers to capture the south bank. At this time, I couldn't get Pharmacist Guo's advice, and my confidence was bursting! Just waiting to cross the Yellow River and intimidate Tokyo!
The Jin army on the bridge has completely dismantled the obstacles, and the tiger roared and rushed towards the south bank barrier! He didn't look up to the sky and laughed, got carried away, and put his arm around Pharmacist Guo's shoulder, tightening and tightening. The laughter has not stopped, and suddenly the gate of the south bank barrier is wide open! A wall of fire is moving forward!
The laughter stopped abruptly, pushed away Pharmacist Guo, propped his hands on the city, and looked into the distance. I saw that the defenders on the other side of the bank were protected by six or seven wooden carts, with spears inserted in front of the shields, covered with dry firewood, and pushed out side by side. After the car formation, the foot soldiers of the Song army wearing heavy armor held large swords and heavy axes, and marched like a wall! A group of soldiers with torches and wooden boxes followed closely behind! Slammed his palm on the city wall, his face turned pale, and he already knew what the other side guard had in mind.
The Jurchen soldiers, who were rushing towards the south bank at full speed, did not take half a step back when they saw the train coming, and immediately put their shields in front of them and quickly caught up! Two armies meet! The front row of the golden army resisted the train with a long shield and pushed forward desperately! Unexpectedly, the Song army chariots did not give an inch, and the train was lying across the bridge deck, as if it had taken root. When the Jin Jun in front saw it, they put down their shields one after another, put them on their chests, and pushed forward with all their might.
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly fell in the sky! A bang! The thunderbolt exploded in the crowd! The Jurchen soldiers, who were extremely afraid of the Song army's firearms, hurriedly raised the tag and wanted to maintain the original formation, but the train in front of them rushed at full speed. I can take care of the top of my head, but I can't take care of the front of me, and for a while, the formation is in chaos! At this moment, the archers of the Song Army, who had been shrinking in the barrier, found the fighters and swarmed up, and suddenly arrows rained down! Screams rang out, and the hurriedly retreating Jin soldiers trampled on each other, pushing, and countless people fell into the river!
The separation is not seen on the north shore ramparts! I want my Jurchen iron horse, crisscrossing the grassland and desert, destroying the withering and decaying, and invincible! Now they are trapped on this short, narrow pontoon! Let a group of Great Song Township soldiers block the way! It's a bad thing for me! At that moment, I only felt that the qi and blood were surging, and it went straight to the top of my head! A pair of wolf eyes, instantly red! Just about to give the order to the attacking troops to fight to the death, be sure to seize the pontoon bridge! The subordinates came to report that the cavalry troops encountered reinforcements from the Song army, but the other party did not stop, maintaining the battle formation and continuing to advance. The cavalry, as before, charged with the intention of deterring the Song army. But this Song army is different from others, the formation is extremely tight, and the commander in front of him asked to avoid it for the time being, and sent someone to ask, is it a war or not?
