Chapter 124: The Governor of Luzhou's Grievances (I)
This kind of thing as a ladder car, Rao is Gundam has been fighting for half his life, and he has to be treated carefully. And Ye Yingwu is also very cautious about this, what really made the ladder car famous all over the world was when Li Zicheng broke through Beijing many years later. It was precisely by relying on the powerful power of the ladder car that the Beijing division in the north was trampled under the feet of Li Zicheng, and the huge dynasty that once issued the strongest voice of the era of "those who offend me and am strong, although they are far away, will be punished" also collapsed.
The Song army's fierce fire bolts did make the ladder cart burst into flames, but the behemoth still climbed the gentle slope outside the city against countless arrows. And as the ladder cart finally roared against the city wall, a cheer erupted among the Mongol troops.
Immediately, there were Mongolian soldiers who were waiting for the battle roared angrily and rushed straight to the city wall along the ladder cart, and there were many Mongolian soldiers who were simply desperate because they couldn't squeeze a few fast passages in this area, and more ladders were caught up in the city, and the Mongolian soldiers who climbed densely were like ant nests.
There is no so-called temptation, as soon as Liu Quancheng makes a move, the whole army will press it.
This is the craziest gamble, once this attack is repulsed, then the Mongol army will definitely suffer heavy losses, but if the city gate is attacked, the entire city of Luzhou will also be broken in one battle, which will be a fatal blow to the morale of the Song army in other places.
Moreover, Liu Cheng went all out when he came up, which could also avoid the defeat of the naval division or the arrival of Zhang Jue's army to join the defenders in the city.
And as the sky is getting late, countless torches have been lit in the Mongolian camp, and half of the sky is illuminated red, and the Mongolian troops in Chengdu Prefecture, which are arriving one after another, are also resting and ready to take over the Tongchuan Mansion Pao Ze who is desperately fighting in front of them.
"Hundred battles, on!" The long knife in Yang Bao's hand crossed a clever and even somewhat weird arc, and a Mongolian soldier fell down in response, and his head flew out a few steps, and blood splattered on Yang Bao's face, adding a bit of murderous aura.
There is a ladder car on the section of the city wall where the hundred battles are stationed, and the speed of the Mongolian soldiers to the city is also not to be said to be fast, although the hundred battles and other Luzhou soldiers are desperately intercepting, but it is inevitable that one or two brave people will rush to the city.
Ye Yingwu also had a sword in his hand, staring at the front, Jiang Tie didn't move, standing in front of him like an iron tower, if the envoys all needed to fight in the front, then how could they, the hundred and tenth brothers in the city, still have the face to meet people.
What's more, there are nearly 400 battles in the city, all ready to go to the city to take over.
In the midst of the chaos, Ye Yingwu was quite calm, and Wen Tianxiang next to him was also standing with his hands in his hands, not afraid of the bloody battle not far away. Ye Yingwu has seen this guy's guts, so he doesn't bother to find someone to take him down.
Because there are ten ** that can't stand it.
Not only the east gate, but also the side facing the river, the other two city gates are also full of gongs and drums, and the sound of killing is continuous. Although he knew that it was just a feint, no one dared to be negligent, and Wang Shichang and Liu Xiong, the two civil and military ministers in Luzhou City, personally led people to guard there.
Several tower-like strong men took a few steps in a row from the ladder car, and before the Song army crossbowmen had time to pull the trigger, they had already jumped onto the city wall, and the big knife dance in their hands was not leaking, and Yang Bao, who was killing the ruthless Yang Bao just now, had to take a few steps back. Several Song soldiers with spears hurriedly came out, and the spears pierced through the shadows of the swords, but only in exchange for a continuous sound, and the spearhead was cut off violently!
There were these strong men who opened the way, and more than a dozen people rushed up one after another, occupying a lot of space on the city wall. And the Song soldiers were entangled with them, and the crossbowmen did not dare to shoot. These strong men are really difficult to deal with, I am afraid that they should also be the elite of the army, and it makes sense to take them out at this time to open the road.
Yang Bao roared angrily, and was stabbed in the arm, and crashed into the two strong men, the big knife was thrown casually, and the two short blades had been unsheathed from their waists, silently rolling the wind straight into the chests of the two, and more blood was splashed all over the armor on his body. Stimulated by Yang Bao, the soldiers of the hundred battles pounced on him as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and their hands rose and fell. Most of the strong men at the head were in different places. It's just that taking advantage of this effort, there are more and more Mongolian soldiers coming up from behind!
The Song army's room for maneuver on the city wall was getting smaller and smaller, and Ye Yingwu also gritted his teeth. Liu Quan's lifeless style of play has certainly caused a lot of casualties to his subordinates, but I have to say that it is indeed very effective, if Luzhou City is let him take it like this, wouldn't it be a shame to lose people!
"Jiang Tie, what are you still doing in a daze, give it to Lao Tzu!" Ye Yingwu kicked Jiang Tie fiercely, and Jiang Tie, who was already hot in the heart of the bloody battle in front of him, was kicked for no reason, naturally his heart was on fire, and he rushed forward without saying a word.
And the guards around Ye Yingwu also drew their swords and rushed forward with a roar. More soldiers of the hundred battles and even the people in the city also strode along the upper city trail, along the city wall, not only the Mongol army is desperate, but the Song army is also desperate!
"Kill!" Jiang Tie burst out with a roar, he was originally stronger than Yang Bao, and he was more domineering in the fight, a saber stabbed into the chest of the oncoming Mongolian soldier, because he was stuck in the ribs, the saber could not be pulled out, he simply let go at will, raised his hand and waved his sleeve, and a sleeve arrow whistled out, sinking into the throat of another Mongolian soldier.
By the time several elite Mongolian soldiers noticed this Song army general who appeared in the sky, Jiang Tie had already pulled out a big axe from behind his back and scattered the entire Mongolian formation! The power of one person is shocking! And more soldiers of the hundred battles saw that their own capital was so brave, and naturally they were unwilling, and the hundred battles were like a sharp sword, sweeping the entire section of the city wall!
"Put, throw!" Ye Yingwu raised his long sword, and the crossbowmen of the Song army on his side also tried their best to block the Mongolian soldiers who landed on the ladder car. There are constantly hundreds of battles passing by Ye Yingwu's side. roared and rushed into the city in front of him, while Yang Xu silently stood in front of him with his sword.
Yang Bao was covered in blood, got out of the pile of dead bodies, looked at Jiang Tie, who was also covered in blood, grinned, and turned around and rushed into the nearest battle formation. Jiang Tie shook his head, the rush just now was a bit fierce, so that he was now surrounded by Venus in front of him, but now when he hesitated, there were still envoys standing behind him, and there were countless sons and daughters!
"Tianwu Army - Kill!" The giant axe in Jiang Tie's hand danced, still rushing ahead.
And Ye Yingwu also grabbed a divine arm crossbow casually, and was about to rush forward. Frightened, Wen Tianxiang and Yang Xu hurriedly grabbed him: "Don't let you be in danger!" ”
Ye Yingwu's eyes were red, his own sons and daughters in front of him were fighting bloodily, as long as he was a commander with some blood, how could he sit back and watch them fight in front of him while he was standing here with nothing to do?!
Wen Tianxiang was slightly stunned, Ye Yingwu's expression was rare, in his impression, this Ye Yanei, who had been in Lin'an, only had a similar expression in that conflict with the Lu family, for a few months, he had become accustomed to Ye Yingwu's deep and confident appearance, but he almost forgot that this was just a young man of twenty years old.
He has his surging blood!
In an instant, even Wen Tianxiang had the urge to rush up with him.
Seeing Wen Tianxiang slowly let go, Yang Xuxiu frowned slightly, and didn't say anything after all, just silently followed Ye Yingwu's side and rushed forward.
"Tianwu Army, a certain Ye Yingwu is here!" Ye Yingwu raised his hand and shot through a Mongolian soldier who was fighting against Yang Bao.
Tricky, ruthless, this arrow is surprisingly accurate!
The soldiers who had fought bloodily in a hundred battles burst into cheers. And Ye Yingwu casually threw the divine arm crossbow, clenched the sword and was about to move forward, Yang Xu's heart tightened, and he hurriedly took half a step forward, and the long sword pulled out countless sword flowers, and several Mongolian soldiers who blocked the way in front of him in a few breaths hated the sword.
The envoy personally rushed up, Jiang Tie and Yang Bao were shocked in their hearts, and their subordinates had no room at all, only by hurrying to cut down these Mongolian Tartars could they ensure that the danger there was the least.
Wen Tianxiang looked at the battle in front of him and took a light breath. With the help of a few ladder cars, the Mongolian army did hit the Song army by surprise, and the fighting on the entire city wall was in full swing, but fortunately, the Song army crossbowmen shot desperately on several enemy platforms, and finally set all the ladder cars on fire, and this was constantly accompanied by explosions.
"Spear!" Jiang Tie roared angrily, and an axe split an oncoming knife. I don't know when he and Yang Bao have been back to back. The Mongol army at the head of the city finally killed less and less, but for this the Song army also paid a very heavy price, after all, the hundred battles were elite, and the other Luzhou defenders and the people who went to the city to help the battle had dozens of dead and wounded. Of course, they were buried with the corpses of nearly 100 Mongolian soldiers, covering the entire section of the city wall. Blood flowed unchecked.
Hearing Jiang Tie's roar, several spearmen who were also killed in the dark behind hurriedly rushed up and nailed the last tower-like Mongolian strong man to death on the city wall. The rest of the relatively thin Mongol soldiers were also quickly wiped out.
From the top of the city, several ladder trucks look like blazing torches, illuminating the dark sky. The city is full of soldiers of the Song army, and after a bloody battle, although the casualties of the Song army are far less than those of the Mongol army, they are also irreparable casualties. What's more, this time, even the people who were used as reserves were used, which shows the fierceness of the battle.
The most lethal thing was that the Mongol soldiers who landed on the city destroyed a full three bed crossbows, which doubled the pressure on the defenders.
But the city of Luzhou was held in the first attack anyway.
Ye Yingwu subconsciously looked sideways, and all the Song soldiers who were lying or lying, walking or standing also looked sideways. In the night, under the flames, red flags danced against the cool night wind, some of which were broken, and some of which were dim.
But they still dance so fearlessly!
"The mountains are like the sea, and the remnant sun is like blood!" Ye Yingwu held on to the head of the city and couldn't help but sigh.
Looking at the already dark sky in slight surprise, Yang Bao and Jiang Tie looked puzzled. Shouldn't your own envoy be stunned to fight the devil, where did the remnant sun come from?
But when they stood up with each other's arms, they couldn't help but take a soft breath. Outside the city walls, several ladder trucks burned like huge torches, coupled with torches all over the field outside the city and the brightly lit Mongolian military camp in front of them, lighting up the entire sky.
It's not the remnant sun, it's better than the remnant sun!
And the endless mountains in the distance are not the mountains like the sea!
The noise gradually became louder, and several people hurriedly looked sideways, Gundam, Wang Shichang and others came together, and even Gundam's armor had a lot of blood on it, it seems that even if this veteran did not personally go into battle to kill the enemy, I am afraid that he was very close to the front line.
As soon as Gao said, Ye Yingwu knew that in fact, it was okay here, and on the other side of the city wall, Liu Yuanli, the general under Liu Quan, personally led people to attack, and this fierce general held back enough strength to revenge the revenge of the water, so it was naturally three points more fierce than the offensive here, and in the end, it was also Gao Gao who rushed up with his personal guards to block it, and then killed Liu Yuanli.
Thinking that just now, the fate of Luzhou City was hanging by a thread, and now a few people who belong to the rest of their lives after the catastrophe face to face, they couldn't help but secretly say that they were lucky. Liu Cheng came up with such a way of playing, but it caught them off guard. However, to be honest, even if you are well prepared, under such a deadly attack, I am afraid that you will have to take several risks.
But no matter what, Liu Cheng was finally killed.
"Hurry up and rest, and take another look around the city." Gundam patted Ye Yingwu's shoulder, standing side by side at this time, they were brothers who could be entrusted to their backs. For the young man in front of him, Gundam has enough trust.
Nodding deeply, Ye Yingwu didn't say anything more.
Everything is in plain sight, at this juncture, save energy, and it is a waste to say one more word!
The city has already burned pine needle water and food to send up, most of the soldiers in this era suffer from night blindness, whether it is Ye Yingwu or Gao Gao, they have no ability to ensure the supply of such things as cod liver sauce for the soldiers, so it is more reliable to rely on pine needle water.
It is also thanks to night blindness, and the Mongolian army is afraid that it will not toss anymore tonight.
Looking at the pot of hot food, Ye Yingwu and Gao Gao glanced at each other and nodded slightly. If he can get out of the city at this time, he will definitely be able to catch Liu Quan off guard. Zhang Jue's reinforcements don't know where they are, and the sailors have not been able to send back the results for a long time, so they have to rely on themselves inside and outside the city of Luzhou.
Gundam and Ye Yingwu walked side by side to a corner, their voices low.
And Yang Bao and the others also stood up one after another and protected the two of them.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――
It's not that Zhang Shijie doesn't want to convey the battle report, but the development of the current battle situation is somewhat unexpected.
Just when the defense of Luzhou was in full swing, the Jinghu Water Division and the Yushui Water Division also had the most tragic collision. This can be called the most powerful two sailors in Sichuan and Shu, and naturally there is nothing to say when they meet, they are all to say to death.
And the fireboat released by Zhang Shijie at the beginning did not play a big role because of the preparation made by the Yushui Naval Division, but it finally broke up the formation of the Chongqing Naval Division, and the Mengchong fleet that bit up immediately afterwards did almost bring a catastrophe to the Yushui Naval Division.
However, the reaction of the Yushui Naval Division was also very fast, and a few warships that were bitten by the Mengchong fleet were simply abandoned, and several building ships took the lead in relying on the vast surface of the river and surrounded them from both sides, which actually caused the Mengchong fleet of the Jinghu Naval Division to suffer heavy losses.
It's just that the upper hand occupied by the Yushui Naval Division was quickly pulled back, and Zhang Shijie's serial building ships that went down the river were indeed very powerful, and the Song Army warships shuttling between the building ships continued to use the huge body of the building ships as a cover for archery, so the caught off guard of the Yushui Naval Division lost two building ships one after another, and they barely blocked this crazy offensive.
The best way to deal with the serial warship is to attack by fire, but the Song warship surrounds the serial building ship layer after layer, and the fire ship can't rush up at all, and the revengeful Yushui Sailor once again broke his wrist, and the flagship took the lead, with more than a dozen warships crashed into the Song army's ship formation!
Using the building ship as a fire ship, I am afraid that only the soldiers brought out by Liu Quan, a genius in water warfare, have this courage.
The three ships that were connected, including Zhang Shijie's flagship, were all on fire. It was indeed unexpected that the flagships of the two sides were wiped out, but fortunately, Zhang Shijie still had the advantage of troops, and the flagship was destroyed, and the Jinghu sailors and soldiers also fought bloodily, and several intact building ships pounced on them with countless Song army ships like hungry wolves.
At this time, the Chongqing Song Army Naval Division also came in a hurry from Kuimen and plunged headlong into the back of the Yushui Naval Division. On the entire river, as long as it was a warship of different flags, they attacked desperately, resulting in Zhang Shijie now standing wet on another building ship, not knowing what the outcome was, so he could only grit his teeth and look at the flames rushing ahead.
On the river, the sailors have been inseparable.
