No. 0742 Tie Hyun
The Yan army on the periphery quickly attacked, the speed was so fast, the fierceness of the offensive was unimaginable, and it was too late for Li Jinglong to react, and the mouth of the canyon had been occupied by the chaotic army.
"Immediately lead someone out and ask for help."
At this time, Li Jinglong realized the seriousness of the problem, the supplies were all behind, and once the valley mouth was blocked, he would be trapped in it if he couldn't get it.
A team of men and horses rushed in the direction of Taniguchi, Li Jinglong stood on a high place and looked at Taniguchi's position, at this time, the opponent's encirclement had not yet formed, and Li Jinglong also rushed forward with a gun.
The battle at the valley mouth position can only be described as tragic, the Yan army is determined to swallow Li Jinglong's army here, and then quickly change the entire battle situation, allowing Li Jinglong to lead people to desperately attack out, and there is no way to break through the Yan army's encirclement.
There was no way but to forcibly attack a position, and only in this way could a group of people rush out to report the news, this method really worked, and with a burst of rush, finally a group of cavalry rushed out.
Of course, Li Jinglong didn't know that this was Yan Jun acting according to the script, first desperately guarding the valley mouth, giving people the illusion that he wanted to trap Li Jinglong here, and then deliberately relaxed the defense in one position, and then let a team of people out.
At the same time as the cavalry rushed out, Taniguchi's defense instantly tightened, at this time, it was useless to let Li Jinglong rush out, there was no way but to retreat with the soldiers and horses.
At this time, Li Jinglong was attacked before and after, and there were still a few thousand people left in the 10,000 Yan army that entered at the beginning, climbing to a high place and maneuvering with the Yan army, these people are all good at climbing the mountain, and there are many stones on the mountain, these are natural defenses, and the southern army pursuing below is miserable.
"General, what now?"
Li Jinglong sat on a big rock, surrounded by corpses, someone brought a water bag, Li Jinglong took a big sip, "Don't worry, wait for the surprise attack after dark, you will definitely be able to kill from here." ”
Li Jinglong's abacus once again failed, the width of the canyon mouth is limited, so even if there are more soldiers and horses inside, they can only squeeze together, at this time, what is lacking is only an elite army that can fight tough battles, not an army piled up by numbers.
The sky was bright, Li Jinglong leaned on the ground, at this time, the ground was full of people, and it was no longer clear where it was a living person or a corpse, and he fought fiercely all night, but he still couldn't rush out, there was no way, Li Jinglong could only change his strategy and wait for help.
If Li Jinglong chooses to rush out desperately, it should be possible, after all, there are only 20,000 soldiers and horses blocking the valley mouth, and the one he is most afraid of is Li Jinglong, who rushed a few times, and saw that there was no way to rush down, so he simply gave up, which had a great impact on morale.
At this time, Li Jinglong's soldiers and horses can only be described as a rout, there are all of them, lying down, lying down, squatting, sitting, except for those who are responsible for defense on the periphery, the rest of the people are resting in the canyon, why do you want to do this, there is no way, hungry, hungry, lying down in this way can consume less, Li Jinglong is not clear, when will the reinforcements arrive.
Just after Li Jinglong led his troops out of the city, Zhu Di sent a large army again, with a strength of 100,000, and they were all the elite of the siege, this is Zhu Di's superiority, seeing that the old general Geng Bingwen in Zhending Mansion has been difficult to break, he simply sent a team of men and horses to attack Jinan, Li Jinglong has left with the elite, and now there are only the old, weak, sick and disabled in Jinan City, and the number is less than 20,000.
Even if there is a city wall, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream to defeat the elite of 100,000 Yan Kings with these people, but there is a person who does not believe in evil, and he is also a scholar, and they all say that this kind of thing is the work of rough people, looking at the army under the city, the guards of Jinan City were instigated, and at this time a person stood up.
This person is Tie Xuan, Tie Xuan has a resolute temperament, is smart and agile, when he was studying too much, he is familiar with the scriptures and history, and has outstanding achievements. He once tried an unsolved case, and immediately made a reasonable judgment, and his talent was deeply valued by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang gave him the word "Keystone". After Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne, Tie Xuan was promoted to Shandong to participate in politics.
has been fighting, Tie Xuan is responsible for the transportation of grain and grass, when Li Jinglong led the army out of the city, Tie Xuan once wrote a letter to Li Jinglong, the content of the letter is to say not to go out of the city, you should learn from the old general Geng Bingwen to stick to it, this time annoyed Li Jinglong, directly tore up the letter.
Zhu Di realized the strategic importance of Jinan, seized Jinan, entered the south to Jinling (now Nanjing), retreated to the Yellow River and divided, which is why Zhu Di had to fight Jinan.
At that time, one of Li Jinglong's generals named Sheng Yong, who went out to fight with the army, must be the most effective one left, on the contrary, this person usually likes to work against Li Jinglong, because he has some skills, so Li Jinglong can't do anything about him, so he simply let him defend the city here.
Therefore, this is also a coincidence, Tie Xuan found Sheng Yong with a sword to explain his intention, the meaning is very clear, that is, he wants to live and die with here, Sheng Yong couldn't help but be moved by him, a scholar can still be like this, what are he afraid of, so the two hit it off and prepared to fight.
Tie Xuan has a very good reputation in the local area, so he simply issued a notice to let the people in the city join the army to join the ranks of defending the city, and the effect is not bad, plus the family generals in each prefecture have gathered 10,000 people, at this time, the guard force of Jinan City has reached 30,000.
Zhu Di began to attack the city, because of the lack of strong siege equipment, so he could only rely on manpower, so the way of playing must be a loss, Tie Xuan let people hide on it, once the chaotic army approached and smashed down with stones desperately, there were many stones here, and the people below were constantly sent to the city, so they fought for a day and a night, and they didn't attack it, but this time it was beyond Zhu Di's expectations.
Zhu Di ordered to continue the onslaught, this battle was fought for more than ten days, there was no way to take it, at this time, the battle in front was also tight, don't look at the strategy to trap Li Jinglong to occupy the opportunity, if you can't take Jinan City, the whole situation is still not completely controlled by Zhu Di's side.
Jinan City is too difficult to fight, because there are two people, Tie Xuan and Sheng Yong, at this time, everyone in Jinan City dares to fight, although surrounded by Zhu Di's army, there is a danger of breaking the city at any time, and no one retreats.
Zhu Di wanted to capture Jinan as soon as possible, and then take the capital directly, so he ordered people to mobilize artillery from the rear to prepare to forcibly attack Jinan City, the artillery power is too strong, once the city wall of Jinan City is destroyed by artillery, there is no way to stop the fierce Yan army at that time.
Looking at the pitch-black cannon barrel below, Sheng Yong's face became more and more ugly, Jinan City was afraid that it would not be able to be saved, this was what everyone thought at the time, Tie Xuan was happy, "General Sheng, don't be afraid, I have a plan, Zhu Di doesn't dare to fire the cannon." ”
"Oh, Lord Tie, what's the plan?"
Tie Xuan ordered someone to take a pen, and then wrote a few big characters on the white cloth, at the beginning, those people thought it was incredible, how to write a few words to stop the Yan army from stopping the artillery attack, this kind of thing was not thought of, until Tie Xuan finished writing, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, it is true, even if Zhu Di is given a few more dares, they dare not do it.
Zhu Di's more than a dozen artillery pieces were mobilized, and he waited for a large-scale siege after dawn, and waited for two days, but he never heard the sound of artillery fire.
"Lord Wang, it is not good for the last general to attack the city."
King Yan glanced at it, this is his favorite general, the master who can fight, Zhu Di knows that this time he must have met an opponent, "Why are you reluctant to fire artillery to attack the city?" ”
"This, lord, you can see it at my first glance."
There was something strange inside, Zhu Di arrived with his personal guards, and he was dumbfounded, only to see a few big characters hanging on the city wall, "Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang." ”
These words have a very important position in the hearts of the people of the Ming Dynasty and even the Northern Army, and Zhu Di also knows the hardships of the generals who dare not open fire, "Who is the main general in the city?" Li Jinglong's subordinates definitely have no such capable people. ”
"Back to the prince, I have already received the news that this time it is Tie Xuan of Shandong who is guarding the city!"
"Tie Hyun!"
Zhu Di frowned, and immediately ordered someone to get Tie Xuan's information, it is indeed a rare talent, just one point, this Tie Xuan is a scholar, and now it is difficult for him to move an inch with his 100,000 army.
At this moment, Zhu Di moved his heart to love talents, it will definitely not work to attack like this, with the above words, no one dares to shoot at the head of Jinan City, so he simply tried to find a way to let Tie Xuan surrender.
Zhu Di personally wrote a letter, and then found the archer in the army, and used the bow and crossbow to shoot at the wall, the Yan army retreated offensively, Tie Xuan stood on it and could see clearly, a war horse appeared in the opponent's camp, surrounded in the middle like the stars holding the moon, it was Zhu Di, the king of Yan.
Yan King Zhu Di came, Sheng Yong pulled Tie Xuan, "Lord Tie, I have heard that Yan Wang is good at fighting." ”
Tie Xuan was happy, "We are defending the city, as long as we are dedicated to guarding the city wall and not letting people approach, Tie Xuan doesn't understand this thing in war, but one thing, as long as the bones are hard enough, this city can't be broken." ”
After Tie Xuan finished speaking, Sheng Yong nodded again and again, he was still a little scared in his heart at that time, Tie Xuan said this, Sheng Yong's face suddenly turned red, it is true, a scholar who has never fought is not afraid, what is he afraid of.
Whoosh, the bow and crossbow are fired, this arrow is different from the usual combat use, it is longer, the whole body is made of iron, and it is shot directly from below to the upper city wall, with a cloth behind it.
Someone reached out and took it off, and then quickly ran to Tie Xuan, it was very simple, it said Tie Gong personally opened, it was actually a letter to Tie Xuan.
Tie Xuan took it down, the content of which was the set on the side of the Qing monarch, the Ming Dynasty was dark and unclear, and it was reasonable to summon the world's wise people to assist the Ming Lord. If Tie Xuan can surrender, he will be treated with courtesy.
Tie Xuan laughed when he saw it, and simply ordered someone to get a pen and paper, and finished writing, the content is very simple, loyal ministers do not matter to the two masters, there was a gift of Zhou Gong and the auxiliary monarch in ancient times, and King Yan is a reasonable person, so he should follow suit and assist the saint, instead of raising troops in a big way, so it is difficult to block the eyes of the people in the world.
After Tie Xuan finished writing, he found a soldier with a bow and crossbow, and then pointed to the location of King Yan, using the opponent's long iron arrow to shoot down, King Yan looked at Tie Xuan's reply and sighed, I didn't expect Tie Xuan to be so stubborn, if he rules the world by himself in the future, he must let everyone open their eyes to see clearly, who is the real master of the majestic strategy.
Zhu Di had no choice but to order his generals to surround Jinan to find fighters, and he rushed to Zhending Mansion with his cronies to destroy the Northern Expedition army sent by the imperial court in one fell swoop.
