Chapter 809: Fang La's counterattack
Killing Fang Youchang's family, digging Fang Youchang's ancestral grave, and digging out the bones of Fang Youchang's ancestors, soaking them in fecal water, drying them and roasting them with charcoal fire to ashes without a trace, which is enough to show that Fang La is not a disadvantaged and ruthless master.
Fang Qifo was defeated by Lotte three times, and lost the city of Hangzhou, and fled back to Muzhou, leaving only more than 1,000 people; He ordered his subordinates to attack Lotte outside Hangzhou, and reversed Lotte's ambush, which was regarded as a shame by Fang La, and it was a lingering shadow in his heart.
It was only because of the siege by the imperial court officials and the army, and the river crossing cut off by the imperial court's naval army, so that Fang La could not pass on the seal letter, and could not transfer the soldiers and horses under his command, and Fang La was like a fish returning to the sea and a bird flying into the sky.
……
At the head of Yuhang Gate, Lotte looked into the distance, only to see a black army appear in the distance, and the big characters of the flag could not be seen clearly from a distance.
In this regard, Lotte can't help but complain in his heart, when he is free in the future, he must build a telescope, not only can he be used to fight, but also can peek at the beauty, although he can't make a glass of quality according to the technology in front of him, then use the same crystal to polish the lens, anyway, it is a concave lens superimposed on a convex lens, and the principle is very simple.
In thought, the team of the righteous army was closer to Hangzhou City, and Lotte saw the words of the big flag in the distance, the banners of these anti-army generals were still very distinct, but they were very weird, except for Fang La's banner of the Holy Prince, which was yellow lined with red edges, and then embroidered with a big black "Fang" word It was very pleasing to the eye, and the rest of the flags were really unsightly.
The peasant uprisings in all dynasties were very hurried, and the first to appear in Jia Yi's "Treatise on the Passage of Qin" in the four-character city language "unveiling the rod and rising", which very vividly illustrates the haste of the peasant uprising, and indirectly proves that another reason for the peasant uprising is "poverty." "I was so poor that I didn't have a flag, so I could only take a bamboo pole to represent the flag.
The rebellion lasted for more than four months, and the conditions of the rebel army were much better before, and the bare poles were also tied with flags, but the regularization was insufficient, except for the flag of the Holy Prince's Fangla, which was finely processed, the rest were all shoddy, with black cloth embroidered with red letters, white cloth embroidered with black letters, and these soldiers were not dressed in different ways, and from a distance, hundreds of thousands of people did not look like an army fighting a war, but more like a funeral procession.
Seeing it in his eyes, Lotte wanted to laugh, but when he thought about the crisis he was facing, he couldn't help but squint his eyes and think about how to fight the battle in front of him.
……
The rebels set up camp and sent soldiers and horses to the outside of Hangzhou the next day, and set up a posture to meet the battle.
Standing at the head of the city, Lotte looked at the chaotic army under the city, and couldn't help but shake his head, the rebellion has been up for four months, and the army has not been regularized at all, the team is still as loose as before, and even the age gap between the soldiers is very large, there are teenagers, and there are people who are almost old, I think that the team of 300,000 people is temporarily patched together by Fang La, and the combat effectiveness is definitely the existence of scum.
Lotte looked at the rebels again, and saw an old man with white hair standing under the yellow "Fang" banner in the distance, looking seventy years old, thinking that this person was Fang La.
After waiting for a while, I didn't see the official army going out of the city to meet the battle, and a general of the righteous army got Fang La's order, urging the horse to the outside of the moat and shouted: "I don't know which one in the city is Pingyu Hou Lotian, my holy father wants to talk to Lehou Ye!" ”
When Yang Zhi heard this, he was immediately furious, and Yu Chengtou stretched out his hand and scolded downward: "Bold rebels, dare to call my Hou Ye by name!" ”
"Yang Zhi, step aside!" Lotte waved his hand, took a step forward, and said to the city: "Le is here, I don't know what your sect leader has to say?" ”
The general of the rebel army under the city arched his hand and said: "Hou Hou Le waits for a while, my holy stallion horse will come!" ”
Lotte nodded.
……
Not long after, Fang La, who had white hair, came to the moat surrounded by a group of people, looked at Lotte from a distance and arched his hand: "Lord Le Hou is invited!" ”
Lotte saluted back in the city: "Sect Master Fang is invited!" ”
Fang La said in a lame official dialect: "It is difficult to be a young man, I have heard the name of the Marquis for a long time, and when I see it today, it is really worthy of the name......"
Noncommittal, Lotte said with a smile: "The former Tang Wuzong Huichang was banned for five years, and he didn't want to revive it three hundred years later, and it has the intention of replacing the Great Song Dynasty!" ”
Fang La's face was solemn, and he said: "The doctrine of my religion believes that the darkness will pass, and the light is coming, such as today's faint and mediocre courtiers, and the Ying Gong Bureau and the Creation Bureau oppress and exploit the people of Jiangnan in order to take flowers and stones, collect offerings, and make the people poor, so that the world is in darkness, and I am teaching that the darkness will pass and the light is coming, so Fang Mou conforms to the will of heaven and the people, in order to overthrow injustice and rebuild order!" ”
There was a lot of brainwashing in the previous life, and Lotte didn't care about Fang La's preaching rumors, and asked with a smile: "You Fang La is just a mortal fetus, how dare you call the Holy Father?" Manichaeism is only one of the world's religions, how does it represent the way of heaven? What's more, both Buddhism and Taoism teach people to be good, but only you, Mani, instigate people to rebel, which is really a cult! ”
"Be bold and optimistic, dare to insult my Holy Sect!" Listening to Lotte's jokes about Manichaeism and Fangla, there are people who are not angry.
"Presumptuous!" Fang La reprimanded his subordinates, and then said: "There are many people in the world who are suffering but do not know suffering, and they are obedient to those who rebel, and sigh sadly!" ”
Damn!
Hearing this, Lotte almost scolded out of his mouth, in the previous life, one side really can't argue with the other, so he can only use this kind of profound words to play a round, this has seen a lot of things, I didn't expect this party to use this set.
Lotte suddenly thought about it, the god stick will always be the god stick, the true color of the god stick is like this, when the god sticks invited by Huizong Zhao Ji in Biandu City asked about things that could not be answered, they were also such gags, in essence, there is no difference between this square and those god sticks in Biandu.
Of course, there is a difference in nature, and the specific difference is that those gods in Biandu City want to cheat some money from Zhao Ji at most, while Fang La wants to seek the country of the Great Song Dynasty after deceiving the people.
In Lotte's sneer, Fang La continued: "Hou Ye Le, the one who knows the times is Junjie, there are millions of soldiers under the command of this father, although you Hou Ye Le has won a few times over this father, but you can still win a few times, it is better to vote for this father early, and after this father has conquered the country, he will be a prince with you!" ”
"With the kindness of the leader of the labor side, Le Mou has received it, but he is forgive his fate!" Lotte waved his hand and smiled, and said: "Sect Leader Fang, you keep saying that you represent the way of heaven, but everywhere you go, you loot and burn, and the generals are even collecting wealth and looting, how can there be a righteous word in such a move, and all beings are equal, as for the theory that you believe in the darkness of the past, how can the sect leader of your side not be dark?" ”
What Lotte said was also true, and Fang La was speechless.
Fang La, who listened to Lotte's argument, was speechless, and a righteous army shouted to the city: "It's useless to talk more, do you dare to go out of the city to fight?" ”
"Sect Leader Fang, Le Mou knows that you led 300,000 troops to attack, but Le Mou also hoarded more than 200,000 troops in the city, the reason why he didn't fight with you is because he didn't want to see my people of the Great Song Dynasty kill each other, as the so-called civil war has no heroes, it is better to resist foreign insults with such a shameless move." Ignoring the shouting rebel generals, Lotte said.
The general of the rebel army shouted: "Lotte, are you afraid to go out of the city to meet the battle because there are few soldiers?" ”
"If you are defeated and defeated by Le, you will be wiped out, and it will be extremely easy for Le!" Lotte sneered, looked at Fang La and smiled again, and said: "Sect Leader Fang's kindness in persuading him to surrender, Le Mou's heart has it, since Sect Leader Fang has good intentions in Le's heart, it is better for a good person to do it to the end, and give Xiang Ren's head and hands to Le, so that the soldiers can be exempted, and secondly, Le's class teacher will return to the dynasty, and the title of a grandfather is indispensable!" ”
Hearing Lotte speak, Fang Laqi's whole body trembled and shouted: "Siege!" ”
Lotte said: "Be prepared to defend!" ”
The two sides parted unhappily.
Fang La retreated to the army under the escort, and then a group of volunteer soldiers rushed towards the city wall, carrying long wooden planks to cross the moat and ladders to climb the city wall.
"Ready, put!"
Seeing the rebels preparing to attack the city marching to the moat, the city general shouted.
I saw that the boulders were thrown down by the catapults at the head of the city, and fell on the dense siege rebels, and the long planks that crossed the river and the ladders that attacked the city were immediately smashed into pieces, and the blood and flesh were flying and the screams were endless......
In the screams of his comrades and the flesh and blood, there are righteous soldiers who are frightened to drop their weapons and retreat in exclamation, boulder rain, there are the first and there are second, seeing that there are soldiers retreating, the general who oversees the battle just wanted to retreat forward with a knife, but saw that more soldiers retreated.
The stone rain at the head of the city is too dense, and no matter who is attacking the city, they have to dodge the edge.
Several siege charges, before they could reach the moat, they were hit back by stones thrown from the head of the city by catapults.
Fang La's face became more and more ugly, so that Fang La did not sleep all night that night.
……
Fang La stayed awake all night for the siege of the city, and the next morning when he was still making food, he beat the drum of the gathering generals.
When all the generals arrived, Fang La asked: "In the first battle yesterday, Lotte was really good at fighting, and the difficulty of attacking Hangzhou this time has increased a lot, can the Zhuhui have a plan to attack the city?" ”
Hearing this, the generals were silent, at this time there were more than 200,000 officers and troops in Hangzhou City, although their own side was more numerous than the officers and soldiers, but the equipment with the officials and troops was really backward, and they felt that there was no chance of winning.
When all the generals did not speak, General Lu came out and said: "Holy Prince, there are moats on both sides of Hangzhou in the east and north, and there are more West Lake obstacles in the west, only there are hills in the south, and there is no danger to defend, that is, the loss of breaking the city is very huge. ”
"That's a brilliant plan!" Fang La, who was worried about how to capture Hangzhou, couldn't help but be happy when he heard the words.
The method that General Xu said was very simple, it was to order people to take the soil of Phoenix Mountain, Qibao Mountain, and Ziyang Mountain, and pave a tall earthen wall like Hangzhou City to connect with the Hangzhou City Wall, and the righteous army used this as a springboard to attack the city.
