Chapter 112: A Long Time to Conquer (Ask for Collection)
Wu Da naturally didn't know that the person who proposed the strategy of "strong wall and clear the wilderness" was Wang Teng of Dinghe Fort, if he knew the truth, maybe he would give up Ulzhou and take Dinghe Fort first!
That night, a major event happened in Ulzhou City: Wei Yuan was sentenced to open the gate of the treasury by deception and took away a thousand taels of silver, and when the prefect heard the news, Wei Yuan had already brought the silver to the barracks.
This silver is an important material for the prefect of Ulzhou to prepare to show his merits, and now that Wei Yuan has embezzled it, the prefect Bai Enyuan naturally refuses to give up, he has long been dissatisfied with Wei Yuan, who was promoted very quickly, and now he has found a reason, and naturally wrote a special book, preparing to impeach Wei Yuan.
What the prefect Bai Enyuan did was already expected by Wei Yuan, he didn't pay much attention to it, but just gathered the generals and distributed the silver.
People's hearts are flesh and blood, Wei Yuan risked being convicted and distributed treasury silver, and the Ulzhou soldiers were grateful to Dade and vowed to fight to the death.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, the Jurchens attacked the city again.
Wuda still used the trick of driving the Han people to attack the city, and the Jurchen elite of the brigade hid behind the Han people, ready to climb the city wall at any time.
The ruthless Zhu Jixun didn't have a soft heart, "Open the bow!" No mercy! ”
Prior to this, Wei Yuan had listened to Wang Teng's suggestion to move the people as much as possible, Zhu Jixun naturally heard about this, in his opinion, the people did not listen to the order, and it was not a pity to die if they insisted on staying in the countryside!
The defenders of Ulju could not refuse, and if they delayed any longer, the Tartars rushed to the city, and it was obvious that they would not be able to support themselves for long with the rolling wood and stones collected last night.
The bowstring rattled and cold arrows were fired.
"Puff puff", blood splashing.
The people under the city cried and cried, they had a stomach full of grievances, but unfortunately, whether it was the Jurchens or the defenders of Ulzhou, they would not be merciful.
After a few volleys, the Han people who served as cannon fodder died cleanly.
This is the last group of Han people, Wuda frowned, he must break through Ulzhou City today!
Then under the cover of cannon fodder, a hundred Jurchen warriors in double armor had already crossed the moat, and the idle arrows had no effect on them.
"Ding Ding Ding", the arrow hit the heavy iron armor with a crisp sound, but it could not bring the slightest damage to the tartar.
This is a group of ironclad troops, and they almost broke through the city yesterday.
Zhu Jixun thought about it all night and didn't come up with a way to crack it, the fierce fire oil has been exhausted, and the only effective way can only be boiling water and boiling oil.
After the ironclad army, the Jurchen sergeants of the brigade held curved bows and fired a fierce shot at the city.
The Tartars were extremely strong and accurate, and the defenders at the head of the city suffered heavy casualties.
Ulju City did not have the longbow in Wang Teng's hand, and the only two remaining cannons also ran out of ammunition, and the defenders were powerless to resist in the face of the Tartar bow and arrow suppression.
"Knock, knock, knock", it didn't take long for the Jurchen elite to rush to the city, they did not climb the ladder, but carried the log and hit the city gate.
Although the gate is sealed, it is clearly a weakness compared to the stone walls.
With each impact, the gates made a loud noise.
If it weren't for Wei Yuan's distribution of the bounty last night, the military heart would have been available, and the defenders of Ulzhou would have already scared away their courage, and now, under the command of the commander Zhu Jixun, they performed their duties and arranged the defense line in an orderly manner.
I don't know how long it took, but the follow-up men and horses of the Tartars also arrived at the bottom of the city, and drove to the top of the city with a ladder.
Under the wall, dense Jurchen sergeants held iron shields and climbed the stairs.
This is the time!
"Pour the gold juice!"
Zhu Jixun gave an order, and the oil-water mixture mixed with fecal water fell from the sky.
"Puff puff", the strong stench is particularly pungent, and many girls and real people are even smoked and fall down the ladder.
Iron armor is particularly effective against arrows and firearms, but it is not powerful in the face of the pervasive golden juice.
If it weren't for the heavy iron shield that blocked a lot of gold juice, these five pots of gold juice alone would have been able to achieve a lot of results.
Gold juice is the most vicious, once the body is burned, the toxins contained in the soup will directly cause infection.
Yesterday, there were already five Jurchen soldiers who had broken their arms to survive, and if it weren't for that, they were afraid that they would not even be able to save their lives.
For Uda, the most difficult moment is coming, as long as he survives this formation, the Jurchen Ruishi will kill the city, once he falls into close combat, the Ming people are definitely not opponents!
The gold juice was limited after all, and the defenders of Ulju finally ran out after five rounds of dumping.
Only boiling gold juice can form an effective kill, however, it takes time to boil the soup, and sadly, the Jurchens will never leave enough time.
The moment the golden juice ran out, more than a dozen Jurchen soldiers stepped on the cloud ladder and quickly attacked.
Zhu Jixun drew a knife in his hand and roared loudly: "Sons, we have no way to retreat, behind us is our homeland, for the sake of our family, fight to the death!" ”
Xu is last night's bounty played a role, and the soldiers roared wildly: "Fight to the death!" ”
"I'm Daming, Wansheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
The most tragic hand-to-hand combat began, and despite the defenders' best efforts, the Jurchens set foot on the city.
Ulju City is broken!
Uda under the city smiled, however, the next moment his smiling face froze, and the three warriors who attacked the city were actually abandoned by the Ming people!
What's going on?
Didn't the Ming army collapse at the touch of a button? Why is it so powerful? Wuda was a little puzzled, "Pass my order, whoever enters Ulzhou first will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver!" ”
"Zhang Jing has an order, whoever enters Ulzhou first will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver!"
The herald ordered the colonel to chant loudly in the army, and it didn't take long to arouse the belligerent heart of the Jurchen sergeants.
One hundred taels of silver was enough to buy dozens of lambs, and the Jurchen sergeant was excited.
With the sound of piercing curses, several Jurchen warriors used their hands and feet together, and rushed to the city again, setting off a new bloody storm.
Zhu Jixun has always been at the forefront, where it is dangerous, he is there.
The Lord will be like this, and the soldiers will naturally use their lives.
Wei Yuan and Zhu Jixun did what they could, and the soldiers were deeply moved, they were not afraid of death, and burst out with unimaginable combat effectiveness.
The time of a stick of incense has passed, and the banner of the Ming Dynasty is still fluttering in the Ulju City Tower.
Uda's face was gloomy, "The whole army will attack and take Ulzhou!" ”
A thousand Jurchen soldiers launched a fierce attack under the command of their respective generals.
If it was an ordinary city, it would have been unable to support it at this time, however, after a stick of incense, the city was still under the control of the Ming army.
From beginning to end, Ulju City is like a boulder standing on the seaside, regardless of the wind and waves, it stands still.
Uda was completely furious, "Tell Dugin that you can't take Ulju City within an hour, come and see you!" ”
First it was a little-known Dinghe Fort, and now it is the turn of Ulzhou City, Wuda can't understand why the hard bones of the Ming army have been met by themselves?
This is very different from Fan Yongdou's promise!
