The power of the pillow wind cannot be underestimated, and under the persuasion of Yelu San, Xiao Yunjin decided to temporarily let Xiao Xun Bu go, and then settle the account with him after the war is over.

At present, the most important thing is to knock down the checkpoint in front of you, and you must not affect your morale because of the defeat of the army on the right, you must launch an attack as soon as possible, and do a good job of sealing the remnants of Xiao Xunbu.

As a result, Yelu Sanyan was also ordered to organize an army of 100,000 in the middle to attack Yijin Pass.

At the same time, Xiao Xiaoxian's department, which had been around outside Waqiao Pass for several days, seemed to have a good heart like Xiao Yunjin, and also launched an attack on the same day.

The topography of Waqiao Pass is slightly different from the other two passes, its left side is built on the mountain, and the right side is not far from the famous Baiyangdian Lake. Therefore, when the Song Dynasty built Waqiao Pass, it made full use of the water resources here and built a river defense system, which also made Waqiao Pass the only checkpoint with a large-scale moat among the three passes.

In the era of cold weapons, the besieging side was undoubtedly at a disadvantage, and for the Liao State, which was good at mobile warfare, attacking cities was not their strong point. However, the war is nothing more than a continuation of politics and interests, and the attack on the three levels was initiated by Xiao Yunjin for political purposes.

He held back for many days, feeling that he should be almost ready, and Xiao Yunjin also sent someone to urge, so he decided to attack.

It's a good day, it's a good day to fight!

Xiao Xiaoxian stood behind the military formation, looked up at the sky for a while, was very satisfied with today's weather conditions, and said to Xiao Gugu next to him easily: "Gu, it's up to you whether you can attack the city today!" Remember what we planned last night and don't act rashly! ”

Xiao Rugu patted his chest and said, "Please rest assured, your subordinates are all in mind!" ”

Xiao Xiaoxian: "That's good!" It's almost time, let's attack! ”

"Yes!" Xiao Langgu saluted him, and then walked to the front of the formation with his personal guards, and yelled: "Attack!" ”

The Liao army, which was ready to go, began to be restless under the sound of the snare drums, and slowly moved towards Waqiao Pass, which was a few miles away......

"The guy on the other side has been nesting for so many days, and he finally remembered what he was doing!" Wang Chao glanced at the Liao army that was slowly approaching, and said to Meng Kunlun (commander of the White Tiger 1st Army) and Gao Zhan (commander of the White Tiger 2nd Army) unhurriedly.

"It's just, these goods are too inky!" Meng Kunlun nodded yes.

"Huh?" Wang Chao looked at Gao Zhan strangely and teased him: "Gao Zhan, aren't you usually quite poor, why are you so quiet today?" ”

Gao Zhan is a side branch of the Gao family, and he is considered to be one of the better ones in the field army, and his family has taken up a lot of light, at least in their family. At this moment, he was making a contemplative look, and said to Wang Chao seriously: "Brother Chao, my younger brother's intuition tells me that something is wrong today!" ”

"Cut!" Meng Kunlun pushed him and said with contempt: "Just your appearance of five big and three coarse, you have a fart intuition, don't put this pretending to be forceful!" Be careful I cut you! ”

Wang Chao: "Okay! The enemies are all coming up, can you be serious, if you let the guy in Liao see you two treating him like this, you won't be angry! ”

Meng Kunlun smiled: "That's just right, save us from doing it!" ”

Meng Kunlun was still jogging with Wang Chao, but Gao Zhan took the time to look at the Liao army in the distance with clairvoyance, and said to Wang Chao: "Brother Chao, look, that guy from Liao has not been idle these days, and he has held back a lot of big guys coming out!" ”

"Really?" Wang Chao asked casually, then took out his own clairvoyance and observed: "Yo! There are really a lot of hard guys! Eh...... Look, what's the biggest guy in the back? ”

Meng Kunlun and Gao Zhan looked in the direction of Wang Chao's finger, and sure enough, there was a super big guy who was struggling to move forward under the traction of a group of horses.

"Why do I think they look like a big ladder? It can't be a big ladder! Meng Kunlun looked at it for a while, and then said uncertainly.

Wang Chao: "In terms of shape, it does look a bit like a ladder. But is this one too big, too long, such a heavy ladder, how can they put it on the city wall? What's more, we still have a moat under the city, is this Liao General's brain broken? ”

"Oops! Not good! Gao Zhan called out again: "My intuition is getting stronger and stronger!" ”

Wang Chao directly ignored him and asked Meng Kunlun, "Kunlun, what do you think we are going to play today?" ”

Meng Kunlun didn't think about it, and said bluntly: "Brother Chao, we don't have to care about them so much at all, with our crossbows here, we can shoot them in the face as much as we come." You see, the enemy strikers are about to enter our attack range, so don't think so much, just kill them! ”

Wang Chao: "Okay! You go and keep an eye on the bed crossbow troops, and give these Liao troops an appetizer first. ”

"Understood! Make sure they eat comfortably! Meng Kunlun staggered towards the bed crossbow position.

"Brother Chao, intuition, intuition is very important!" Gao Zhan hadn't forgotten to sell his ideas to the dynasty at the moment.

"Intuition? You've been wrong ten times and ten times, and you're embarrassed to say your intuition! Wang Chao gave him a roll of his eyes: "Don't talk nonsense, follow me to the city wall to inspect and cheer up the soldiers!" ”

Gao Zhan pursed his lips and followed Wang Chao depressedly.

At this time, the forward troops of the Liao army also stepped into the attack range of the bed crossbow. I don't know if he was tired or what, the formation was very chaotic, it was just a plate of loose sand, which made Wang Chao, who was used to seeing the neat queue of his troops, very contemptible.

On the side of the Liao army, Xiao Xiaoxian kept staring at the head of the Song army, and he led the cavalry and followed the infantry slowly to a place two miles away from Waqiao Pass, and was stopped by Xiao Qiaogu.

Xiao Xiao asked first: "Rough Gu, didn't you say that Song Jun's bed crossbow shot very far!" Why hasn't there been any movement yet? ”

Xiao Gugu: "My lord, judging from the situation of the subordinates' temptations a few days ago, the bed crossbow of the Song army is a little farther than before, and it can probably shoot a mile of land. Look at the situation right now, our strikers are about to get into their shooting range. ”

Xiao Xiaoxian: "Then you go and explain to the drummer, keep an eye on me, and hurry up and beat the drum when you see Song Jun shooting arrows." ”

Xiao Rugu: "The subordinates have repeatedly emphasized it, don't worry!" ”

The two were talking, and suddenly there was a drum sound, which startled the two of them, and they turned to the direction of Waqiao Pass to take a look, only to see countless arrows flying in the air, and the cold light was shining, like starlight in the sky.

"Wow! Song Jun has a lot of bed crossbows! Xiao Xiaoxian couldn't help but sigh.

Xiao Langgu said dissatisfiedly: "Who said it wasn't! These Song people like to tinker with these things, and they have a kind of real knife and gun to do with us, see if I don't kill them! ”

Xiao Xiaoxian: "What's the use of what you say, let's pray that our method is effective!" Otherwise, we don't know how many soldiers will die under their arrows! ”

Wang Chao was the infantry of the field army led from the beginning, and what he liked to see the most was the scene of the bed crossbow attack, especially the large-scale bed crossbow shooting, which was like a rainbow and extremely powerful. And this time to defend the city, in addition to the two hundred bed crossbows of the 1st and 2nd armies of the White Tiger, there are also fifty bed crossbows of the Waqiaoguan garrison and some of the original old test bed crossbows, which together can fire about 2600 arrows each time, which is really enjoyable to watch, provided that it is not yourself who is shot!

However, any kind of weapon has its advantages and disadvantages, as long as it is dealt with properly, it is not impossible to turn the tide of the battle, and Xiao Xiaoxian has been working towards this goal after waiting for so many days.

The soldiers of the Liao army who walked in the front were also frightened when they saw the rain of arrows that covered the sky and the sun, but fortunately, the drums remembered in time, so they hurriedly followed the method explained in advance, and lifted the "door panel" in their hands, and those soldiers scattered around the "door panel" also quickly hid in these temporary shelters.

Seeing the moment the Liao soldiers turned out of the "door panel", Wang Chao's face also stiffened, he didn't expect that he had just confronted the Liao army for the first time, and people seemed to be prepared.

"No wonder those Liao troops were scattered just now, it turned out to be for this! It seems that in the future, we really can't underestimate the IQ of these Liao barbarians. Wang Chao sighed silently in his heart, and hurriedly raised his clairvoyance to observe the killing of this round bed crossbow.

Xiao Xiaoxian and Xiao Langgu do not have clairvoyance, but they are also trying hard to observe with the naked eye.

And in the area where the crossbow bolts hit, there are still some soldiers who are slow to react and the quality of the "door panel" is not good, and they have become unlucky.

However, Xiao Rugu was already very satisfied with this result, and said happily to Xiao Xiaoxian: "Your great king, you are too wise, your method is very effective, the Song army has so many arrows to shoot dozens of hundreds of our people, it is a pure waste!" ”

Xiao Xiaoxian was also very proud in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and said very calmly: "Don't be too happy!" Taking advantage of the gap in the archery of the Song army now, quickly let the soldiers speed up, strive to climb the city wall as soon as possible, and tell them that the first person to climb the city wall will be promoted to three levels and rewarded with thousands of dollars! ”

Under the temptation of interests, the soldiers of the Liao army really accelerated their pace of advancement, and it did not take long to come to the moat only a hundred meters away from the city wall, and then they stopped the pace of attack.

Xiao Xiao first saw that the attack was as smooth as he thought about it, and his heart gradually blossomed, not only did he despise those crossbow arrows that were boasted by Xiao Xiaogu.

He was happy here, Wang Chao was naturally unhappy, the invincible bed crossbow salvo in his eyes was actually cracked by others in such a dirty way, although hundreds of enemies were killed in a few rounds, but this was too far from what he expected.

"Brother Chao, I'll just say that my intuition is very accurate!" Gao Zhan, a guy who has no eyesight, sees that Wang Chao is unhappy, and if he is not comforted, forget it, and add fuel to the fire.

"Quasi-your sister!" Wang Chao gave him a kick, and said angrily: "You still give me a hanger when you fight, go and command me trebuchets for me, a group of ten, aim at the door panel of the Liao army and give me a roll call!" ”

"Yes, yes, I'll go now, I'll help Brother Chao get out of his anger!" Gao Zhan said with a grin.

In Waqiao Pass, the various types of trebuchets add up to more than two hundred, but the only one that can really accurately attack is the white frame brought by the 1st and 2nd armies of the White Tiger. Gao Zhan didn't bother to take care of those antique goods, let them mess around on their own, and he divided the hundred trebuchets into ten groups, that is, a squadron to find their own targets to shoot according to Wang Chao's wishes.

After arranging the task, Gao Zhan became the shopkeeper again, slipped in front of Wang Chao and asked, "What's the matter?" Does trebuchet have any effect? ”

"That must drop!" Wang Chao raised his chin highly: "Just these fools in the Liao Kingdom, do you think that we can't do anything about them if you find a fast plank, the master let them know what the power of heavy weapons is!" ”

Gao Zhan looked down at the city, and sure enough, the Liao army who was blocked by the moat was still standing there stupidly with a shield on his head, and he didn't know what he was rubbing. If they moved, the trebuchet might not be able to hit, but for targets that didn't move, the trebuchet said that there was no pressure to fight. As for the "shields" on the heads of the Liao army that thought they were very safe, in the face of the majesty of dozens of catties of stones falling from the sky, they simply turned into broken wood slag. And those soldiers hiding below will inevitably have to hurt their muscles and bones, even if they are lucky enough to escape a catastrophe, they still have to face the ubiquitous crossbow arrows, and the crossbowmen of the Song army on the city tower are depressed by their "turtle back tactics", how can they let go of this kind of fighter that beats the water dogs!

Xiao Xiaoxian saw his soldiers die tragically one by one under the multiple attacks of the Song army, and he was so distressed that he yelled at Xiao Rugu: "Quickly send the archers to suppress the Song army at the head of the city, we can't let them kill our warriors unscrupulously there!" And our trebuchets, attack quickly, and smash those damned Song troops to death for this king! ”

"King, our trebuchet can't reach the Song army city wall now!" Xiao Rugu reminded euphemistically.

Xiao Xiaoxian was a little anxious, and couldn't help but shout: "This king knows if he can reach it, you don't know how to send more people to help push it!" That big guy of ours also has to speed up, and if we drag it out, our losses will be too great, so hurry up! ”

Xiao Rugu: "Yes, King! The subordinates will do it in person this time! (To be continued.) )
