Chapter 269: Solid as a Rock

Listen, pawns. Hurriedly grabbed the iron cable at both ends of the front tip, Xu Cheng shouted yo ding, dozens of people worked together! The flybridge was three feet long, except for the section where the tail hung down as a staircase. The first sheep and horse wall and the troops that extend out and hang in the air are still two feet long! Yang Yan was also in a hurry, and when he saw this, he suddenly remembered that he and Xu Wei and other brothers used a bench as the bottom when he was a child, and the other bench flipped over the seesaw on it.

Therefore, he hurriedly sent Xu Cheng to try this method.

Really! Dozens of people pulled with all their might, and the flying bridge was really like a seesaw! The Jin Bing, who was running on the flying bridge, didn't understand what was going on, and suddenly felt like he had risen into the air! Quick response. Jump down quickly, one step later, like the car throwing a stone bullet, and then fall straight into the second trench! Didn't wait to get up. The archers in the main city rained down with arrows and shot them all like hedgehogs!

The success of the blow greatly encouraged Xu Cheng's department. There was no need to command all the heads, and a team of dozens of people pulled the iron cable and went to the seesaw. Yang Yan's city saw that the method worked, and one after another flying bridges were pulled down, and he couldn't help but shout: "Lao Tzu let you climb!" ”

After the net finished speaking, he heard a voice behind him: "Someone! The method of breaking the flying bridge will be passed on to the other three gates to guard! "Look back. But it is to recruit the capital to rule the king! At a critical juncture, he didn't care about etiquette, and Yang Yan immediately turned his head to pay attention to the war exhibition. Wang Yu walked to his side, and the fierce battle outside the West City made this famous general who had experienced the defense of Taiyuan couldn't help but change his face! In the snow, the Jin army followed one after another, ignoring the corpses and attacking wildly!

"Yang Yan, I also owe you a loss." Wang Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Heartfelt emotion. When the war broke out, he was patrolling the other three gates, and saw that the Jin army was attacking with a flying bridge, and the first attempt was in the way. He hurried to Xicheng, which was heavily attacked by the Jin army, and as soon as he came, he saw Yang Yan's troops pulling a seesaw. Yang Yan ignored him, and suddenly leaned on the female wall and frowned. This flybridge is pulled down. But the golden soldiers who went up to the first sheep and horse wall continued to advance, and the rebels couldn't resist at all! Moreover, there are also Jin troops who have dodged the full attack of arrows, and constantly run up the sheep and horse wall through the ironclad rushing car. Especially a member of the Golden General. Extremely majestic, holding two knives to chop melons and vegetables, no one can stop it!

"Phew!" After taking a sip, Yang Yan turned his head to Wang Yu and said, "Wang Dutong!" I'm sorry for you to command for a while, I'll go down and chop that handful of birds! ”

Where is Wang Yu? You are dignified in the West City, and you are burdened with heavy responsibilities, how can you fight on the front line? On this battlefield, it is most taboo to disobey orders, no matter who commits this, it is definitely a capital crime! Yang Yan knew Xu Wei's principle of governing the army, and he didn't dare to force it no matter how much he hated it in his heart. Just as he was in a hurry, he caught a glimpse of a group of men and horses coming from the south. Once connected with the Jin Army. Immediately contain the opponent's offensive. Take a closer look, why is Yang Zaixing? What kind of appearance is this? Carrying two hand knives, two handles in the belt, and two on the back? This guy has six knives!

Although Yang Zaixing is Yao Pingzhong's subordinate, he robbed grain from Qixian County, and since he reinforced Xu Wei with Zheyan, he has fought side by side with the Hujie Township Army several times! on his martial arts. Fierce as Yang Yan, Ma Tai, and Du Feihu all have to shout! At this time, he was ordered by Yao Pingzhong to reinforce the sheep and horse wall in Xicheng, and the two knives in his hand flew up and down, only to see blood splashing everywhere. Invincible!

"Good! What a Yang Liudao! Yang Yan slapped the city wall and cheered loudly!

Sheep and horses on the wall. Yang Zaixing took his cavalry to change the battle. Killed all the way from Nancheng, no one could stop him at all. When he was killing fiercely, he suddenly heard a roar! Seeking prestige sets. But I saw an enemy general, extremely long, and pressed over like half an iron tower! Like him, the other party also held two knives, stained with blood!

Kicked away a volunteer soldier in front of him. He rushed up with two knives and arrows! There was a sharp sound of weapons colliding, and he only felt that his right hand was empty, and the knife was actually cut off! And the other party was also forced to take two steps back by the threat of his blow! With a muffled snort, Yang Zaixing threw the broken blade, pulled out the two machetes on his waist with his backhand, and slashed them again! The golden general didn't dodge or dodge, and his huge body hit him like a stone bullet!

The knife slashed into the armor, and he was also knocked to the ground by the other party! was hailed by later generations as a peerless general in the era of cold weapons, Yang Zaixing is not in vain. The golden general's fat body probably hadn't pressed against him yet, and with a flick of his right leg, he flipped over the enemy who was much larger than him! Crawling up neatly, the two knives swung out again!

What strength is he? The other party was stabbed four times and could still get up! This guy wears more than one layer of armor! Yang Zaixing was furious! The blade tore through the air. Slash your opponent with the power of thunder! Najin Jiang's face was hideous, and the two knives in his hands were desperately blocked. Hearing two more crisp sounds, just as the golden general was holding the broken knife and lost his mind slightly, Yang Zaixing's blade, which had already exhausted, suddenly swept from the bottom to the top!

A cry of pain! Yang Zaixing didn't stop! Two knives! Four knives! Six knives! No matter how solid the armor is, it can't resist the crazy blow of this peerless brave general! Broken armor and bone slag stained the blade red. Soaking through the robes! General Jin's majestic body finally couldn't support it, and his legs bent to the ground! Just as he was about to fall to the ground, Yang Zaixing put one foot against his throat. Throwing away the two rolled knives in his hand, he reached out and pulled one from his back, picked off the opponent's iron helmet, and saw his face clearly.

A cruel look flashed on his face, Yang Zaixing made a force on his legs, and waved it ruthlessly in his hand! The rain of blood smeared his face, swirling the blood and spittle around Beili, and then spat at the head that was rolling aside.

"Kill all the gold thieves!" The bloodied Song army general raised his sword and shouted! He was greeted with a neat roar! Reasonably,; The horn sounded again. When countless enemies rushed back to the golden camp like a low tide. On the boiling wall of Pingyang, the soldiers of the defenders who desperately resisted shouted loudly! The emotions accumulated in the fierce battle are completely vented at this time!

Yang Yan made a mistake, took off his helmet, suddenly jumped onto the female wall, raised his arms and shouted: "Promise!" Golden Dog! That's all you have to do! I jump! "If it is said that when the war began, the unison of the Jin army destroyed the sky and the earth, and the momentum was like thunder. At this time, the roar of the defenders of Pingyang was like a storm crashing on the shore, swallowing thousands of miles!

The Jin army camp, the Jurchen warriors who returned to the nest are no longer arrogant. It's not that they haven't fought a defeat, and it's not that they haven't lost the city, but today. Facing the fortress of Binh Duong, they felt so powerless for the first time. The opponent had two trenches and three walls, and our army dispatched tens of thousands of troops and used all kinds of equipment, and only attacked with all its strength after two days of attack. The result? The first low wall was not taken down either!

The impenetrable arrow array, the unpredictable robe bullets, thinking about it, it's like a nightmare!

The concubine stood in the big tent of the Chinese army, with her back to the tent, and the generals who came in one after another could not see his face, so they could not guess his mood. Actually, do you still need to guess? In this battle, my Jurchen army attacked less than a day before the order to retreat! The mood of the marshal can be imagined!

The Dragon and Tiger King rushed into the tent covered in blood, and the first thing he said when he came in was: "Marshal!" The Great Tobjia was said to this abruptly, and he gestured at the strange atmosphere in the tent.

The concubine slowly walked towards the handsome case under the gaze of a group of generals, but after the case, she didn't sit down. He turned around, his sharp gaze swept across the audience, and finally landed on Wan Yan Tuhe's face, and asked in a deep voice, "How is the big Tobjia?" According to the Bohai soldiers, Da Tuobjia was killed by Song Jiangge, and he failed to recover the bones and replied.

After listening to the concubine, she sat down slowly for a long time. Then he asked, "How many casualties have our army?" ”

"Marshal, in just half a day, our army has lost more than 4,000 people, many wounded, and the loss of equipment is not large." Jeruma replied five times.

In less than a day, more than 4,000 people were killed! The corners of the concubine's mouth trembled unnaturally! And so it goes. I'm afraid that in less than a month, the Western Route Army will roll up its flag and retreat. In this southern expedition, the state is bound to win, especially the Western Route Army. He has repeatedly instructed that Shaanxi must be attacked as soon as possible, and the fourth prince must not be allowed to steal the limelight. But now. As soon as the army came down from Taiyuan, it was blocked in Pingyang. It's hard to move an inch. And the land of Hebei and Shandong. One horse flat river. The fourth prince with 80,000 gold troops and tens of thousands of Hebei signing troops, plus 3,000 cavalry "Tiefutu" I am afraid that it has repeatedly hindered it"

If he breaks through Tokyo, then the disadvantage of his group after the death of the second prince will be reversed! The fourth prince will succeed his brother and establish his majesty in front of the emperor and in the court! No way. The Western Route Army must break through to Guanzhong as soon as possible, and it cannot be spent for a long time in Hedong!

Hate it, that damn Purple Gold Tiger! In a short period of time, the fragmented situation in the southeast border of the river was suppressed! The fortress of Binh Duong was also built! Prevent me from marching into Shaanxi! "The tiger grows up. and it shall devour me. "When the second prince was alive, this sentence was fulfilled in me!

Concubine Su closed his eyes, and the anger in his heart scorched his heart and lungs like a raging fire. General of the Southern Army! Purple Tiger! Xu Hu'er! Xu Wei! I don't believe it, I've been in battle all my life, I've been in a hundred battles, and the Khitans haven't been able to stop me, and they will be planted in your hands! I swear to break Pingyang!

"What do you think of today's battle?" Long. He asked. Unexpectedly. The first to stand up and express his opinion was his son, Wanyan Huonu.

"Marshal, the Song army has created a new defense system with two trenches and three walls. Previously, our army had no experience in conquering such fortifications. The damage to its defenses was much worse than before. And large instruments can't get close. According to my observations, the Song Army's robe car returned fire more fiercely today than before! I'm worried. Robes and carts are constantly being erected in Binh Duong City! If this is the case, the further back you go, the more difficult it will be to capture the city! ”

The words of the living girl spoke the hearts of many generals. In the past, when the city was captured, the further back it went, the smoother it became.

But this time in Pingyang, I encountered such a strong city. Today's bloody battle lasted for most of the day, and the casualties were so heavy! If the other side steps up the erection of full vehicles, the future battle situation is really unimaginable"

After hearing this, the concubine nodded slightly. Teach to do a deep mystery! Although as soon as he arrived in Binh Duong, this new city defense system was now targeted and made corresponding preparations, but in the end, he still underestimated the enemy!

At this time, Yelu Ma Wu said tentatively: "Marshal." The city of Pingyang is strong, and it is difficult to conquer for a while. And my army of more than 100,000 can't go crazy here for a long time, it is better to follow the Taiyuan example, and trap Pingyang with the "lock-up method." The marshal led the elite division straight to Guanzhong! ”

As soon as Ma Wu's suggestion was put forward, most of the people in the tent civil war were shocked. When Taiyuan was first taken. It's also a long-term attack. The prime minister of the state can be besieged by the "lock city method" and lead the army south. But at that time, there were only a few soldiers in Taiyuan City? Now Pingyang City is strong, and Zhaode is still Xu Wei in charge! Let's go to Shaanxi and leave him behind the ass? Isn't that the same as hanging an axe over your head? Do you know when it falls? Even if you want to trap Pingyang, you should divide your troops to make a detour to attack Zhaode. Borrowing the road pot to the west.

Just when the generals are fighting, they will do it suddenly! Huo Ran got up, kicked over the handsome case, and shouted: "Ben Shuai will never let this place become the second Taiyuan!" Swear to Binh Duong! All the generals were horrified. Don't dare to say anything more.

At this time, compared with the tense atmosphere of the Jin army camp, Pingyang City was obviously much happier. As soon as the battle ended, Wang Yu led a group of corpses to kill Yao Pingzhong, Zhang Jun, Zhang Er, and Yang Yan to ask Xu to shake off the results of the battle. But when I arrived at the Shuaifu, Xu Zhaojiao was not there. After asking the adjutant, I learned that he had summoned the prime minister to the courtyard.

Hurried all the way to the abandoned school field, and when the net stepped in, he saw Xu Wei leading a group of craftsmen to rush towards them. When the five of them were wondering, there was a loud bang! The generals who came down from the city were shocked! A pod of earth and rocks exploded in the upper right corner of the school field, scattering and splashing in all directions!

Wang Yu led the four generals to meet him, and before he could speak, he heard Xu Wei ask, "The Jin army has retreated?" When he had finished speaking, he clapped his hands and told the craftsman to inspect the place where the explosion had occurred.

Originally, he pretended to be a belly, but Wang Yu didn't know where to start at this time, smiled bitterly, and asked, "Dare to ask Xu Zhao what is this for?"

Stuffy, Xu Wei said with a smile as he played gunpowder with the craftsmen.

The generals looked at each other, we are walking on thin ice on the city, and we are like no one to ask for the minister! Strange, you believe us so much? Aren't you afraid that the Jin army will attack the city?

"You are not afraid that the city will be bright," Wang Yu said again.

Xu Wei laughed: "Brother Zhengchen is an expert in defending the city, Brother Xiyan was born in Jiangmen, Zhang Qiaoying is a brave general in Jingyuan, and all three of me are not ordinary people." I am very relieved that the four walls of Pingyang will be handed over to you. Besides, the preparations for the work have already been made, so why should I be the woman who leans against the door and looks??

As soon as these words came out, Wang Yu sighed: "If you can ask for such trust from the minister, it is not in vain that Wang went to Pingyang." ”

Since he was appointed as the commander of the recruitment department, he has deeply admired the strictness and training of the Hujie Township Army. Thinking that Xu Wei is only a young man in his twenties, he can have such a means, it is indeed amazing! What he admires even more is that this person has the style of a general. There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people. As a guest living here, he entrusted him with the task of recruiting the commander of the capital, and he did not hinder him in any way. I heard that Yang Yan, Zhang Qing and others were his childhood friends, and they raised troops from the Daimyo's Mansion together, and they were like brothers. I was also worried that these people relied on their relationship with Xu Wei to disobey the command.

But it turned out that it was groundless.

The Purple Gold Tiger lives up to its name.

"Recruit the prime minister, today's battle, a big setback to the Jin army! But after this battle, the Jurchens may not succeed in attacking head-on. Worried that the other party would go to the side door Zhang Jun said at this time.

Wang Yu glanced at him, nodded in approval, and then said, "What Qiao Ying said is true. Next, you have to prevent Jin Junjian from going sideways. ”

Ma Kuo, who had not spoken, interjected at this time: "Seeing that Pingyang is difficult to capture for a while, is it possible to stay in the army and defend it." Galloping south with his own army? ”

This question was asked and the scene was silent for a while. Logically speaking, there should be this possibility. That's what Sticky Han did in the first place. However, since the army of concubines arrived in Pingyang, so far, it has only been ten or twenty days, he will not give up so quickly, right?

"It's possible, but not for the time being." Binh Duong is no better than Taiyuan at the beginning. Our army has enough food, and there are Wu brothers in Zhaode Mansion. The concubine will not leave Hedong alone as a last resort. He would not have despised our army to such an extent. ”

"Humph! Despise? That's how it works. He claimed more than 200,000 horses, if it was a field battle. I might be a little scared of him. But this depends on the city. Hehe, Yang Yan, I'm afraid this is the first time after the big war, not only did he not suffer a single wound, but he couldn't even see a drop of blood on his body. Apparently, he tasted the dessert of defending the city. Watching the Jin army fall one by one under the bows and arrows and robes of the soldiers under his command, the feeling can be described in one word, like eating a round stomach, and then going to the thatched house to pull a heart!

Seeing what he said, Wang Yu immediately invited credit for him and said: "Xu Zhao, today the enemy army attacked the sheep and horse wall with new equipment, and the situation was once critical. It was Yang Tongzhi who came up with a solution to solve it, and today's combat exploits, he should be the first! ”

Yang Yan is a guy who will not be modest, and when he heard Wang Dutong's praise, he also accepted it with his chest held high. At this moment, Yao Pingzhong snorted: "His sheep and horses in the west city are in danger, if I hadn't sent Yang Zaixing for emergency reinforcements, would the Jin army have been able to retreat so quickly?" "If it was usual, Yang Yan would have done it with him when he heard this, what do I care about you, the little captain and the big captain? But today, no, first, it was indeed Yao Pingzhong who sent reinforcements. Secondly, Yang Zaixing's committee is really powerful! Six knives! What did he think?

"Meritorious service will be rewarded, and guilt will be punished, you don't have to fight with each other, this official has his own merits." Xu Wei said.

After talking for a while, he understood the hard work of the generals. and ordered him to go down and rest and eat. As soon as the generals left, several craftsmen who were waiting next to them came over and saluted, and one of them said, "Ask for the minister." There is no significant difference between this new prescription and the old one. ”

Xu Wei was stunned, how is this possible? Then he led the craftsmen to hurry over to the place where the explosion was tested. It doesn't seem to be much different from the power of a thunderbolt explosion? Then he asked, "Do you have the amount of flame nitrate?"

"According to the orders of the prime minister, increase the flame nitrate to forty-five taels." The craftsman replied.

Xu Wei looked at it for another moment, then turned around and said, "You won't add clear oil, tung oil, and starch, right?" ”

"Nope! There are only three kinds of flame nitrate, sulfur, and bamboo ru! There is no one or two on the side! The villain dared to put his head on the neck, "The craftsman is obviously in a hurry."

Xu Wei waved his hand and stopped his words. It doesn't make sense, the amount is not enough? Or is there something wrong with that Zhuru?
