Article 0743 Power of firearms

Zhu Di had no choice, he didn't expect the other party to use this trick, more than a dozen giant artillery pieces were set up at a high place in front of the city, and he just waited for Zhu Di to give an order, and immediately blasted open the gate of Jinan City.

Faced with those words on the city wall, Zhu Di could only give up, leaving a team of men and horses to surround Jinan City, and led the elite to Zhending Mansion, at this time, the rescue team that rushed out of the canyon had successfully entered Zhending Mansion.

"General Geng, please send troops to save my general."

The man was covered in blood, and Geng Bingwen was startled when he saw it, "Hurry up, please get up, you are under the command of General Li Jinglong Li?" The person behind him hurriedly helped the other party up.

The man wiped it, not knowing whether it was tears or sweat, "Here is the general's token, General Geng will know it at a glance." The man took something out of his bosom.

This is the token of the Ming Army, through the token mobilization of soldiers and horses to identify the identity is very common in the army, sometimes it is basically a recognition of the card does not recognize people, so, the main general in the army is extremely strict in the management of the token in the hand, absolutely will not be easy to show people, more rarely lost, once the token is lost, the main general will also be severely punished.

Geng Bingwen stretched out his hand to take it, it was indeed Li Jinglong's military order, "What happened?" Geng Bingwen was so anxious that he stood up all of a sudden, although Zhending Mansion and Yan Jun suffered losses in the battle, after all, they could still hold on, at this time, Geng Bingwen saw the people covered in blood in front of him, and the most worrying thing still happened.

Li Jinglong is like a timed bomb, which may explode at any time, and it is also the most unstable factor in the entire battle situation, Yan Wang's northern army is good at field raids, and the ability of camp assault is also above that of the southern army, so the only advantage is to hold on to the city, which the southern army is good at.

The man was helped to sit down slowly, thinking of Li Jinglong who was trapped inside, and a group of brothers, he didn't stop all the way, but fortunately, when he rushed in from the outside, it was quite smooth, although dozens of people were killed and injured, and finally rushed out of a bloody way to see Geng Bingwen.

"Please General Geng send troops immediately." The man told the story back and forth, Li Jinglong originally wanted to lead the army and directly attack the rear of the Yan army while the battle in Zhending Mansion was fighting, so that he could repel the attacking enemy, but he didn't expect to fall directly into the trap of the other party.

"Hey, confused."

Geng Bingwen was so angry that he slapped the table when he heard it, and the sound was very loud, it can be seen that the old general's anger at this time, how can Li Jinglong say it, he is also familiar with the art of war since he was a child, and he is a big master on the battlefield, but he didn't expect that he didn't know how to lead troops at all, it was obviously the other party's plan to lure the enemy, so he directly led people to rush in.

"General Geng, if you don't send troops again, I'm afraid that the 100,000 army will be trapped and die in the canyon." The man looked at Geng Bingwen with a pleading face, Geng Bingwen's face was gloomy, and his brows were deeply locked, "It's not that I refuse to send troops, in this way, it is equivalent to falling into the trap of King Yan again." ”

Geng Bingwen's fists were clenched, this was King Yan's trick, he wanted to deceive himself out of the city, at this time Geng Bingwen was completely in a dilemma, send troops, once the army of King Yan suddenly came out halfway, the battle outside the city was definitely not a fierce opponent of the Northern Army, if the troops were not sent, once Li Jinglong and those people were trapped in the canyon, he would still be charged with not saving himself when he saw death.

What should I do? People must be saved, and they can't watch their own people die like this, of course, the Zhending Mansion must be guarded, and the world of the Ming Dynasty must also be guarded.

In the canyon, Li Jinglong's face is getting more and more ugly, four days have passed, there has been no movement outside, during this time, Li Jinglong has exhausted all kinds of methods, night attack, it is useless, the other party has been prepared, not waiting for you to approach, a burst of random arrows came over, there is no way but to retreat, Li Jinglong thought about turning over the mountain on the side of the canyon, and then suddenly attacked.

It's a pity that the mountain is too steep to be suitable for a large number of soldiers and horses to pass, at this time, Ma Sanbao stood on a high place, and the southern army in the canyon could see every move clearly, if this was a game of wits and courage, Li Jinglong was doomed to failure from the very beginning.

With a loud bang, the artillery transported from the direction of Jinan City joined, and the defenders trapped in the canyon suddenly complained bitterly, and the troops who entered the canyon were close to 70,000, and they didn't feel anything at the beginning, until 70,000 people rushed in, and at this time they found that the whole space became extremely crowded, and the cannon sounded bursts, and they could only be carried hard with their bodies, and there was no way, there was no room to dodge at all.

Li Jinglong was so angry that he stabbed a shot into the trunk of the tree next to him, and at this time he actually put the blame on Geng Bingwen, "After waiting for so long and not sending troops, is it because it depends on General Ben's joke." ”

At this time, the generals next to him didn't speak, saying nothing was anything, it was obviously their own mistakes, but at this time they relied on others, of course, everyone knew Li Jinglong's temper, and they couldn't see that others were better than themselves, and even if they made mistakes, they would not tolerate others saying it.

The sound of artillery kept stopping, and the corpses of the Southern Army trapped in the canyon flew up one after another, and at this moment, the cursing voices in the army continued to come out, "Do you want us to wait here for death?" ”

"What is Li Jinglong doing to eat?"

"Boasting every day about how capable he is in battle, Lao Tzu has been a soldier for so many years, and it is the first time he has fought so badly."

"Forget it."

There are those who have a bad temper and get up and scold, and there are those who squat on the ground helplessly and sigh, at this time, those factors that are unfavorable to the war are spreading in the canyon, and the origin of this factor is Li Jinglong.

Because of the mistake of tactics, everyone was trapped inside, and he didn't come up with a feasible way for a long time, if Li Jinglong chose to blindly rush out, no one would complain even if there were many deaths, but he rushed a few times, and seeing that he couldn't beat it, he simply sat inside and waited for reinforcements.

"General, the last general is willing to take people out to kill."

One person really can't stand it, the Yan army just blocks the valley mouth, and then bombards it with artillery, this style of play is the most demoralizing.

"Stand by for help."

Geng Bingwen has already sent people, the reason is very simple, the other party is Li Jinglong, a relative of the emperor, and his status is actually higher than himself, not to mention that Geng Bingwen is already in the age of sixties, if it weren't for Zhu Yuanzhang's dying entrustment, this time he can be called sick, after all, he is already in his seventies, and he can go into battle without armor.

A team of men and horses were killed in the direction of Zhending Mansion, the speed was amazing, the front army was all cavalry to open the way, and the Chinese army was behind, and the Yan army on the periphery of Zhending Mansion was caught off guard, and the entire camp was instantly defeated by the southern army that rushed out inside.

Geng Bingwen sent two henchmen to lead 50,000 troops to rescue Li Jinglong, counting the men and horses led by Li Jinglong, the main force of nearly 130,000 was completely able to fight a good battle with the army of King Yan.

Before leaving, Geng Bingwen explained that if he encountered the Yan army halfway, he must not fall in love with the battle, let alone pursue, otherwise it is easy to fall into the Yan army again.

This method is more secure, the two henchmen nodded again and again, both of them have followed the old general's old department for more than ten years, and they have also learned a lot of skills over the years, and each of them led a team to rush out quickly.

When King Yan got the news that Zhending Mansion sent reinforcements, Zhu Di laughed, "I can't move Jinan City, so I'll just take you to the knife." With a wave of King Yan's arm, 100,000 elites were exhausted, clearly wanting to swallow these 50,000 people in one go.

The shouting of killing shook the sky, and the two of them rushed out of Zhending Mansion were shocked, they didn't expect that King Yan would deploy so many troops here, if they were calculated purely by troops, King Yan's troops would never be able to catch up with the southern army on the side of the imperial court.

And many of the main forces of King Yan are the chaotic army led by King Jin back then, these people are also the southern army, the real northern army of King Yan is only 100,000 elites, plus King Ning's 40,000 elite cavalry, the elite strength is only 150,000, at this time, King Yan came to a trick to hide from the sky and the sea, and the soldiers and horses attacking Zhending Mansion are just bluffing, and the real elite has been staring at the direction of the canyon.

This is Zhu Di's clever side, using Li Jinglong's arrogance, trying to consume the soldiers and horses in the direction of Zhendingfu from the periphery, the elite of the Yan army was exhausted, and the 50,000 southern troops who came to the rescue were not opponents at all.

More than a dozen artillery pieces stood on the periphery of the canyon, at this time, the main force of the Yan army guarding the periphery of the canyon was only more than 10,000 people, if Li Jinglong knew that he would definitely be furious, it was very simple, 10,000 Yan troops trapped his own 70,000 army, this is definitely a great shame.

"Kill."

40,000 reinforcements quickly entered, and the sound of killing on the periphery of the entire canyon shook the sky, and Li Jinglong jumped up from the ground at once, "What sound?" ”

"General, it should be our reinforcements that have arrived."

At this time, the generals who rushed over all showed joy on their faces, only Li Jinglong laughed, "It's just a trick that King Yan is good at, do you really think that I, Li Jinglong, can't see it!" ”

Li Jinglong sat directly on the ground, at this time seeking stability is definitely the biggest mistake, 40,000 reinforcements desperately attacked inside, the defenders inside suddenly increased the pressure, and they also had to protect the dozen or so artillery, worried about damage, if Li Jinglong rushed out desperately at this time, he would definitely be able to break through the defense of the Yan army.

Li Jinglong chose not to move at this time, this time it was a pain for the reinforcements outside, don't look at it as 40,000 against 10,000, don't forget, there are many elite Yan troops behind him, the sound of horses' hooves, and bursts of smoke and dust behind him.

"General, the main force of the Yan army is chasing after you, what should I do?"

"There is no way, only to fight to the death, we must rescue the soldiers and horses inside, only in this way can we have a chance of winning."

"Kill."

The shouting and killing kept stopping, Li Jinglong sat inside and listened to the neighing of the war horses outside and couldn't help frowning, and simply climbed to a high place, from where he could vaguely see the situation outside, only to see the war horses running back and forth, the fighting outside was completely white-hot, in order to complete the heavy task given by Geng Bingwen, these reinforcements completely fought hard.

"Hey." Li Jinglong took a deep breath, the more he looked at the situation outside, the more he looked at it, it didn't look like he was acting, could it really be that Geng Bingwen's reinforcements had arrived, "Come on, immediately take a team of people and horses out to check out." ”

This is the case on the battlefield, the fighter plane is fleeting, from the beginning to Li Jinglong's discovery that something is wrong, in fact, it is only an hour that has passed, and an hour of time is just to provide time guarantee for the elite of the Yan army approaching behind.

Li Jinglong's men and horses went out to kill, at this time, the Yan army guarding the mouth of the canyon could only grit their teeth and carry it, and the disadvantage in strength was completely revealed at this moment, "General Li, send troops immediately, and the reinforcements have arrived." ”

One person shouted on the horse, it was Li Jinglong's lieutenant general, the one who led the troops to rush out, and when he saw the battlering companion at the mouth of the canyon, he immediately shouted at the top of his voice.

"Report to the general at once."

"Yes."

"Attack with all your might."

Li Jinglong suddenly came to his senses, and immediately flew on his horse and rushed out with his gun, but unfortunately, the war drums were bursting, and the elite of the Yan army had already killed from the periphery, completely blocking the entire canyon in an instant.
