Chapter 105: The First Try

Whether it was Uda or Bogut, they didn't take the Ming army seriously.

What can be so good about an army that only knows how to avoid war?

In the Battle of Sarhu, Nurhachi defeated hundreds of thousands of Ming troops and debunked the myth of the invincibility of the heavenly (dynasty) kingdom, and since then, the Houjin army has overcome its psychological fear.

At this time, the Jurchens suddenly discovered that the Ming army was weak to the point of vulnerability.

Without the psychological burden, the Houjin army became more and more courageous, while the Ming army, except for the Qi family army and a small number of northern troops, the rest were already frightened by the Houjin army.

Bogut always believed that Da Chun's death here does not mean anything.

"Siege!"

Bogut gave an order, and the sound of "wooing" conch sounded, and three hundred Jurchen elites galloped wildly.

The speed of the horse was extremely fast, and the townsman standing on the fort wall even had an illusion: maybe the next moment this cavalry army would jump into the fort and kill!

Is this the preemption?

Wang Teng took a deep breath, killed Wang Zhichen, and calmed down without mud, Xiang Yong had already proved himself, but only he knew that the real test of Xiang Yong had just begun.

Will Guangling Xiangyong be able to hold out to the end?

Taken by the Jurchen army, many villagers became short of breath.

Three hundred Jurchen cavalry, if they really met on the plains, it would be enough to crush an enemy several times their size.

It is rumored that the Jurchens are infinitely powerful and extremely vicious, and this time they are right, can they win?

In Dinghe Fort, many villagers were worried and panicked.

The Yellow Tiger was patrolling back and forth in the city, and suddenly, a sergeant's face turned pale, and the Yellow Tiger was furious, and he shouted loudly: "Afraid of a bird, and a tartar can't fly, what is there to be afraid of?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the sergeants showed signs of sudden realization.

Yes, there is a pit outside the military fort, and the Tartars naturally can't rush in.

Bogut's eyes widened, and he stood on a small raised dirt slope, looking out at the city, which seemed to be unusually quiet and undisturbed.

This group of Ming soldiers really has a bit of fame!

Just when Bogut was a little emotional, the striker suddenly neighed and panicked.

"What's wrong?"

"Commander, there are dirt pits dug by the Ming people in front of you, and the big guys can't hide from them, so they can only stop temporarily."

Bogut had a gloomy face, and he rode forward, and soon came to the edge of the pit.

The bottomless pit was dark and swarthy, as if it was going to choose people to eat.

Unable to reach the city, the cavalry lost its deterrent effect, and Bogut could only let the cavalry dismount.

"Where's the dog?"

In desperation, Bogut remembered the benefits of the Han people again.

"Commander, there is no one within a radius of five miles, and all the houses are empty"

"What? Han dogs are hateful! ”

Without the Han people as substitutes, Bogut could only let the sergeant make the ladder himself.

In desperation, the three hundred soldiers could not build decent siege equipment at all, so they could only find wooden stakes and build ladders, however, the surrounding trees had been cut down by the Ming people, and if they wanted to cut wood, they had to travel several miles.

In desperation, Bogut had no choice but to let the sergeant travel far away to cut wood.

This process is extremely tortuous, at this time, the townspeople at the head of the city have long lost their fear, and the Tartars are nothing more than that!

An hour later, the Tartars struck again.

The horn of the attack sounded, and the three hundred Jurchen sergeants barely maintained four phalanxes and walked slowly.

On the top of the city tower, Wang Teng pondered that if he had a cavalry in his hand, he would only need one impact to cut through the thief's formation and completely destroy the opponent's siege attempt, but now he did not have a strong army to attack quickly, so he could only rely on the advantages of the city wall and use muskets and longbows to kill and injure the enemy to the greatest extent.

It's only 300 people, and Wang Teng doesn't think that the other party will bring any trouble to his own people.

Under Wang Teng's infection, Huang Hu was full of confidence, and the two talked and laughed freely, and this light atmosphere soon spread to the entire city wall.

The Tartar does not have three heads and six arms, it is also a head and two arms, so there is nothing to be afraid of!

With such a toss, Bogut already understood that this military fort was by no means a good stubble, however, at this time, he was already riding a tiger, and if he retreated, it would only make people laugh.

With no other choice, Bogut gritted his teeth: "Attack the city, and don't seal the sword for seven days!" ”

Seven days of slaughter, the city is bound to shed rivers of blood, but Bogut can't care about so much.

Hearing Bogut's order, the sluggish Jurchen sergeants finally regained some morale.

Everyone came from afar, not to burn, kill and loot?

If you can't let it go, what is there to be happy?

Bursts of shouts were heard, and the Jurchen soldiers under the city soon entered within one hundred and twenty paces, a distance that, with Bogut's previous experience, should be safe.

The existence of the earthen pit greatly disrupted the formation, and in order to maintain combat strength, the three hundred Jurchen sergeants reorganized the ranks under the shouts of their respective commanders.

Bogut put fifty men with wooden shields at the front, and behind them were a hundred elite men with ladders and a hundred soldiers carrying giant logs, followed by the only fifty archers.

For the first time in his life, Bogut felt that there was a shortage of manpower.

If you can add a few hundred more people, why is it so shabby?

On the castle wall, Wang Teng looked at the dark jaw, the Tartar is not a useless idiot, just looking at this layered array, you can know that he also has two brushes, but this unlucky child is unlucky, and he met himself, thinking of this, Wang Teng looked back and asked: "This distance can be within the archer's arrow range?" ”

After a slight estimate of the distance, Tong always bowed his head and said, "Condescending, one hundred and twenty steps should not be a problem!" ”

Wang Teng sank his face and shouted violently: "Longbowman, test shot!" ”

"Test firing!"

As soon as the words fell, nearly a hundred arrows glowing with cold light swept through the air in a graceful arc and fell down.

"Commander, be careful!"

Bogut stood in front of the battle, never expecting danger to fall from the sky.

By the time Hulu shouted a warning, the arrows had already arrived.

"Poof"

If it weren't for the guards rushing forward in time to knock Bogut to the ground, the rain of arrows would have killed him.

Cold sweat poured down his forehead, Bogut trembled, and he roared angrily, "Why does the Ming longbow have such a long range, and what is the reason? ”

It was also the first time that Hulu had seen such a sharp longbow, and it stands to reason that if the Ming army had such a sharp weapon, it should have been used on the battlefield a long time ago, so how could it have been hidden so far?

What's so funny about this?

"Commander, I heard that in the past, the Song people had a divine arm bow, with a range of two hundred paces away, could the Ming army have created a god arm bow?"

Bogut snorted, a big killing weapon two hundred steps away, if there was really such a sharp weapon, the siege would be in vain!
