Chapter 109: Merit

Chapter 109 Credit

There were only 500 people with fire, but the commander of the army ordered the whole army to charge, and as long as the horses were obedient, they rushed forward, and the only use was only: cover.

Since the Nanli people launched a night attack, most of them also arranged ambushes to intercept the death squad, and the goal of the five hundred people rushing up alone was too obvious, and if they wanted to set this fire, the death squad had to be covered

There are pros and cons to the commander's horn order, which is very good for arson, but the order for the whole army to charge also makes the already scattered army collapse faster...... There is no need to mention the large array of the Fan army, and there are only more than 3,000 horsemen who can still be ordered to charge in the end.

After all, the Titan Birds rushed from the front, and the panic they caused spread like ripples, and the entire battlefield became disorderly, the front formation rushed backwards to the main formation, and the main formation reversed to the rear formation, only the team hiding at the very edge of the flank could barely move, and it was already rare to be able to rush out thousands of people at once.

As the commander of the fan son expected, but it was by no means what he wanted, the team that charged forward met the most brutal slaughter before they could reach the distance of the arrows...... The Uighurs, the Shanximan, the remaining 2,000 cicadas, the Nanli Jīng soldiers stationed in Yanziping, and all the armed forces in the fiefdom were engaged in this battle, except for the stone guys who had poor eyesight at night.

The western city wall of Qingyang is also busy, important people evacuated, jīng strong laborers poured up to the city, broke the dry sandbags that had been carefully protected in advance, and covered the fire oil with sand, this matter was controlled by the fire road people, even if the labor was several times more in a hurry, it was impossible to cover all the places contaminated with fire oil, but the fire road people had good means, and commanded the labor to quickly pile up small ones one by one. Dune', with an iron shovel to shoot hard, block the fire path that may burn one by one, and then spread with the hillock as the base line, how to do this work is completely his knowledge, and others only listen to the command.

In addition to the arming of the death squad in front and the labor force of the city's adventure Busha, Qingyang City also has two 'barriers', one is the great master Luo Guan, who is under the city, the location is almost between the battlefield and the city wall, and does not participate in the fight, just silently looking up at the night sky, holding the bow and waiting, if there are arrows galloping, he will try his best to intercept; The other is Chen Hui, who has taken yào things to cultivate to the fullest, and he also concentrates on the bow independently of the city, and if there is an arrow that Luo Guan can't stop, he will block it.

If it is really unstoppable, the old man will take the fire path man and flee for his life......

Even if all the actions were planned by Jīng's heart, Song Yang was still not sure that the head of Qingyang City would not be attacked by the flames, and when the plan was made, they were faced with a dilemma: it was expected that the Titan Bird would scare the crazy horses, but how to grasp the time of the night attack?

whether it is to attack before Fanzi starts to throw the rope, or even before the rope throwing; Or wait until they've almost thrown out the cans of oil?

The benefits of the former are obvious, it can guarantee that there will be no fire in the city tonight, so that Song Yang can win a big battle clean and beautiful...... But what about after tonight? The reason why this battle was won was entirely because Fanzi didn't know that there was still a group of ancient fierce beasts in Chang Chūn's family, and it could be said that if they fought with infantry, they would not suffer such a big loss. The strength of Fengyi's side is more than enough to make the enemy's formation large and defeat the whole line, but it is impossible to completely annihilate the enemy.

It is not difficult to foresee, tonight Fanzi will be defeated, no matter how heavy the casualties are, at least most of the strength can be saved, and when they make a comeback after preparation, if they still ride horses to find trouble with Qingyang City, what kind of stupidity will they be.

Rather than waiting for them to come back next time they have defense, it is better to run out of fire oil this time, anyway, the enemy army will definitely be big tonight, and there will be no more ability to attack the city, at best, it will be a fire and burn the city to black.

After all, 100,000 cavalry is the advance legion, in order to give up the baggage for fast progress, it is impossible to bring too many oil cans with them, after tonight's battle, the fire oil in their hands is not enough to launch a fire attack, they can only attack the city with real swords and guns, just rely on the construction of Qingyang City, the current morale and the Fengyi jīng Rui, those conventional ways of fighting Qingyang City are not afraid.

In addition, Song Yang also brought the fire road people before making a plan, and wanted to find a 'foolproof strategy' from him, to see if there was a chance to play a good show of 'burning plateau soldiers', the dealers brought oil cans, it would be great if they could all be lit, but unfortunately the time was too hasty, from Song Yang's arrival in Qingyang to the killing of the army before and after a few days, not to mention that the fire road people couldn't think of a good way for a while, even if he had an idea, he didn't have time to arrange.

In the end, Song Yang still chose the 'latter', and let Fanzi throw it first and then march into the raid. As for whether the enemy can be stopped from setting fire in the back, it is just a matter of obeying the fate of heaven, and even if it can't be stopped, it doesn't matter, and it has nothing to do with the overall situation.

In the two battlefields one in front and one behind, five thousand cicadas and Yaksha and Liu's army rushed into the enemy's main formation; The other armed forces in the fiefdom intercepted the arson team that rushed towards Qingyang in the autonomous formation.

There is no suspense in the battlefield ahead, even if Song Yang defects now, he can't save the defeat of Fanzi, everyone is just trying to expand the results of the battle, kill as many Fanzi as possible, and destroy more of the enemy's living forces; The real pursuit, fighting, and confrontation were completely in the rear, and the feudal forces tried their best to intercept and kill, but the battlefield was empty, and the death squads and the soldiers covering them immediately dispersed as soon as they rushed out, making it extremely difficult to intercept and kill.

Fortunately, the team in charge of interception may be as mobile as the Uighurs, coming and going like the wind; or the mountain stream is often thrown out with a big axe, and the attack is invincible; Or the cicada yaksha in the form of twenty centurians occupies the cavalry to the death...... In addition, the fiefdom forces also had two great advantages: although the enemy was still able to charge, the mounts were more or less frightened, and their speed was greatly reduced and they were far less obedient than usual; On the other hand, the rocket needs to ignite in advance, which will delay time and be easily interfered with.

But even so, it is not easy to intercept all the enemies, almost everyone is running, rushing, if you look at it from a bird's eye view, it is completely a scattered chase, the soldiers only want a rocket to go to the city in exchange for a sea of fire, and the feudal army squeezes out the strength in the bone marrow to only seek a 'perfect', a completely regretless and impeccable victory.

In the face of encirclement, sniping and the tomahawk that will whistle at any time, Fanzi's action was seriously disturbed, although the horse ran fast, there was almost no way to rush into the shè cheng, and he could only gallop in a roundabout way and look for opportunities, occasionally a few people escaped into the shè cheng, but the rocket that had worked hard to come out of the shè would be immediately cut off by the sun-watching arrows of the two great grandmasters in mid-air, and then a bright sun flashed in front of him, killing the arson of the Tibetan cavalry shè on the spot.

This is the first real appearance of the Fengyi Army, and for the Cicadayasha, Uighur Guard, and Shanxixiu, a group of monsters who are looking forward to fighting from the bottom of their hearts and picking up knives more than anything else, it is far from enough to win a victory, and they must win beautifully.

This is the pomp and circumstance of Yanziping.

The princess, the county lord and other characters who did not participate in the war gathered in the Taishou Mansion under the city, although they could not see the battlefield, but the battle situation and military intelligence were constantly reported, and everyone knew all about the situation outside. Lord Taishou was surprised and anxious, needless to say, the surprise was not to mention, the anxiety was that the Qingyang defenders should enter the battle at this time.

Kill a few thousand more people, and join forces with the fiefdom to intercept the enemy's archers, and the city will be safer. But this battle was presided over by Chang Chūn Hou from beginning to end, and at this time, Liu Hou sent out the Qingyang people as if he wanted to compete with Hou Ye.

The timing of the soldier's battle is a taboo in officialdom, and with Liu Taishou, he will not dare to commit this taboo no matter what. What's more, Her Royal Highness the princess is wandering around, and I don't know how many times she has muttered in a voice that everyone can hear, 'This is the credit of the Marquis of Chang Chūn, a great military achievement', how could Liu Hou not hear it, Her Royal Highness the princess is beating herself.

Ren Xiaozhu turned around again, happily recalling the old words again, shaking his head: "This time Song Yang made a contribution alone......

Before he finished his words this time, Ren Churong burst out laughing from the side and interrupted: "I know that it is all the credit of Song Yang, and when I have fought the battle, the merit table will be transmitted to the capital, and no one can take away the credit of your lord, don't worry!" Then, without waiting for Xiao Yu to say anything, the county lord turned his eyes to look at Liu Hou: "Please Taishou dispatch a soldier to go out of the city to help Chang Chūn Hou intercept and kill the thief." ”

Ren Churong never participated in the war, and this order was not made by her, but was specially given to her by Song Yang before the battle...... The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and no matter how carefully you calculate in advance, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents, so Song Yang did not ask Liu Hou for help in advance, for fear that if the Yiyi army was defeated, how could there be no heavy troops stationed in the city; Now that everything is going well, Fanzi is only left with the last little 'resistance' of arson, and he can't hurt the city, so in this situation, he naturally has to ask Taishou to send troops to help.

Liu Hou was overjoyed and immediately sent the order, and the Qingyang garrison sent out two-thirds in one go, and four thousand soldiers swarmed out and entered the battlefield to join the friendly forces.

The soldiers who rushed up complained bitterly, the already difficult task, after the addition of four thousand Qingyang defenders, almost completely lost hope of completion, and what made them even more helpless was that even God was falling into the well...... When the cannon horn sounded in the city and the reinforcements were put into the battlefield, there was a roar of thunder in the air, and it was raining.

Thin clouds during the day gradually turn into rain clouds at night.

The rain wasn't too heavy.

If the city was already on fire, such rain would not only be useless and might even fuel the fire, but now that the city was safe and sound, the rain was enough to declare their mission a complete failure for the soldiers who were still trying to find a way to get the rockets up.

In the rain, you can't shake the fire fold, let alone hit the fire knife and flint, and there is no way to ignite the rocket, let alone set fire to the city!

Mu En looked back at the morale-boosting friendly troops, and then looked up at the rain that was falling in the sky, with an impatient look on his old face, he whistled in his mouth, and took three hundred mountains and streams back to the city.

Friendly troops and rain arrived, Fanzi couldn't set fire, this sniper battle became no difficulty, no fun at all, the old woman stopped playing, no fighting, anyway, Song Yang's order to them was 'try to prevent Fanzi from setting fire', now that the enemy has failed to set fire, she led the team home to sleep is not a violation of military orders.

……

The sky is dawning, and Qingyang is victorious.

Fanzi threw more than 200,000 oil cans on the west city wall, but there was no way to shè even a rocket to go up, the rain stopped, the flag of King Nanli on the head of the city fluttered in the wind, although the sound of hunting was light but full of happiness, enough to make every Qingyang person rejoice.

The city has just settled down, the work of the fire real person has come to an end, the sand is covered with fire oil, this matter is naturally foolproof with the dwarf old Taoist host, even if you nod at the head of the city at this moment, the fire oil can't burn.

After a day or two, the oil under the sand will evaporate with the wind and completely dissipate, and then it will be completely safe.

Looking down from the top of the city, the eyes are full of the corpses of the fallen enemies. Qingyang West mén opened, and the Liu family army, which had just eaten a gluttonous feast and regathered together, was returning to the city under the leadership of Liu Er, and then Taishou sent troops and laborers to clean up the battlefield.

So far, basically all the teams that participated in the battle last night have returned to the city, but Song Yang and the five thousand cicadas he brought have not returned, thinking that they should be chasing and killing the enemy, but there is no need to worry too much.

Sure enough, Song Yang and Cicada Yaksha returned unharmed, but it was too late... It wasn't until noon that they turned the other day that they returned to Qingyang.

Song Yang led the male army to triumph, the people in the city had to be a cheer to greet each other, Qingyang's civil and military officials headed by Liu Hou, lined up to congratulate, praise, thanks, these things needless to say, Song Yang one by one, returned to the post house to take a good bath, after eating some things, Liu Taishou had a visit, to the court to report the victory of the recital has been prepared, to ask Chang Chūn Hou to see.

After all, Liu Hou is now the guardian of a city, and he has to write these official articles, Song Yang was really too lazy to look at it, and looked at the county lord with a blank eye, who smiled so that his eyes were crooked, and he took the watch in Taishou's hand.

The county lord probably looked at the watch, changed hands and handed it to Ren Xiaozhuo, the latter looked much more serious, it was full of words praising Song Yang, the princess and the county lord, the princess of the Hou family's family liked to watch this, she smiled from ear to ear, and couldn't help but read it again after reading it, only then did she remember one thing while being satisfied, and smiled at Liu Hou: "It's all Song Yang's credit, and Taishou didn't mention himself at all." ”

When she was 'fighting for merit', Xiao Zhuyi only thought about putting all the credit into Song Yang's pocket, but when she really wanted to be sent to official business, she felt that it was inappropriate for everyone to sit in the same boat, and all of them were monopolized by their families.

As he spoke, Xiao Yu put the watch back into Chu Rong's hand, and said with a smile: "Third sister, you add two more sentences and write about the benefits of Lord Liu." ”

"The last general has no credit." I don't know if he was sincere or pretending to be polite, Liu Hou shook his head vigorously, and said: "When the Hou Ye's reinforcements did not arrive, the last general's calculation was just the eight words 'the city is ruined and the people are killed, and the country will be martyred'. It's not that I'm afraid of the Tubo people, but I really didn't expect to be able to win the battle, and I can defeat and kill 100,000 enemy cavalry, not to mention this, just say that the battle on the eve was presided over by the Hou Ye from beginning to end, and the last general didn't do anything at all, and he couldn't talk about the credit. ”

All the things displayed on the recital were the credit of Chang Chūn's family, and Liu Hou also expected that most people would be polite to him, and he had prepared a set of sonorous words, but temporarily changed his mind and abandoned those high-sounding statements. First, the county lord is the most famous in the capital, and she used to be the host of red

The big man of the Ō Mansion is really boring to put nòng rhetoric in front of her; On the other hand, looking at Song Yang's temper, most of them don't like to listen to those scenes, Liu Hou simply said it plainly, but the temporary change of words made him a little speechless, and the words did not reach the meaning.

The county lord smiled, nodded to Liu Hou, signaled that he didn't need to say anything more, he could fully understand what he meant, and then said: "There are no outsiders here, and you don't need to be too particular about speaking, if I say something wrong or inappropriate, you must not worry." ”

Liu Hou hurriedly nodded, and Ren Churong's tone was serious and his voice was slow: "When the Fengyi reinforcements did not arrive, but Qingyang had become a lonely city on the front line, Lord Liu did not abandon the city and flee like the Tang Lou Taishou, but reorganized the defense and prepared for the battle, which is a great credit to me." Lord Liu is ready to serve the country with his body, and this idea alone is a great merit. ”

Ren Churong's fluttering words went straight into Liu Hou's heart.
