Volume 2 Bianliang Mistake Chapter 225 Meng Nuan (3)

Dozens of simple long ladders leaned against the battlements of the fort, and at the foot of each ladder were pressed down by a dozen civilians to prevent the defenders from knocking down the simple long ladder. The most courageous of the people—or rather, they had been tortured for days, and were numb to the death and wounds of the Jurchen Tartars today—there were always a hundred and ten people, who went up the ladder. Either with bare hands, or with a sharpened stick, without cover, desperately crawled towards the fort.

At this moment, not a single arrow was sent out of the fort, and even the human figure could not be seen, only the billowing mist on the wall could be seen. At this moment, none of the thousands of people gathered under the hedgehog under the wall wanted to think about what the defenders of the head of the Jiazi Fort were preparing to deal with them.

The fort is not very large, with a circumference of only more than 150 steps. A garrison of fifty men matched such a large fort. Dozens of simple long ladders are leaning up, which can be called densely packed. The long ladder is also densely populated with people climbing upwards. There were more people looking up with red eyes under the fort walls. Such a scene, such a crowd, almost overwhelmed this little fortress!

Even the guy who has been speaking out to command called Hong Da is silent at the moment, in this situation, Rao knows that the defenders of Jiazi Fort do not only have the means of guarding by sending arrows and releasing horses, and in the meantime, he can't help but think, thousands of people risked their lives, and dozens of defenders in this area, relying on human lives alone, can also pile down this small fortress?

At all times, even Guo Rong and others, who had been paying attention to the battle of Jiazi Fort, couldn't help but have the same idea for a while.

From the Yingzhou City Fortress, there are more than just these thousands of ragged and almost unarmed people who are like dense ants all around the Jiazi Fort. Behind them, there were Jurchen light horsemen who swept the wings, opened their bows and shot back, and the Jurchens who grew up with waves of arrows used to sweep through the crowd with heavy arrows and rushed straight into the Jiazi Fort. Among the light cavalry on both wings, it was the Jurchen infantry warriors who rolled up in formation, and they were about to follow these thousands of people and go straight to Jiazi Fort.

The number of Jurchen armor soldiers in this knot step formation is no more than two hundred, but the momentum is magnificent. It's far more than the thousands of people who are densely packed with raw mouths!

Double armor per person. Like a moving steel fortress, between the marches, there is the sound of metal colliding. The outer armor is covered by a large shield. The middle armor is full of long knives, iron hammers and other weapons that are convenient for hand-to-hand combat. Every line of dozens of steps, Puliyan shouted loudly to maintain the array. Behind them, there were hundreds of men who overtook them from behind, clearing the chaotic battlefield in front of them and opening a path for the heavily armored infantry warriors.

These pale heads are pressed and pressed, or they wear leather robes, or they hang their breasts on the outside of them. Wears a small pointed hat. Not worthy of a long blade. Each person's waist is a knife to solve the head. In addition to untying the head of the sword, some people also have bows and sacks, and occasionally they also shoot aimlessly at the armor fort. However, these Jurchen auxiliaries who participated in the war were still desperately trying to clear the roads, pushing away the broken rows of cars, pushing the tired corpses down the trenches, and filling the roads leading to Guò more densely. Some even crossed the ditch and continued to pull out the remnants of the deer. They all carry large ropes with them. After bolting it on, several people worked together, and they shook and pulled out the deer that had been inserted into the frozen soil, which was much faster than those people who were in the right place.

The side-firing arrows and crossbow arrows on the B-shaped fort kept flying, and these cangtou bullets pressed the auxiliary army and people kept falling. But these auxiliary armies knew better than the common people that the Jurchen military law was fierce, the banners were not polished, the horns of the retreat soldiers were not sounded, and no one looked back. Just bury your head in the hard work. If he is dead or wounded, he will be dragged away and thrown aside.

On the battlefield. The hoarse shouts of the people, the command of the leaders of the auxiliary army. There is also the neat shouting of the Jurchen heavy armored infantry soldiers when they stop for dozens of paces in each line. The reverberation was in a ball, filling the front of the fort, as if the sound alone could destroy the fort and flatten it!

At all times, Fort A is still quiet. Some of the Jurchen knights who were galloping in battle let out cheers, as if this small fortress, like the danger of countless famous cities in Daliao, was about to succumb to the military might of the Jurchen army!

The Chinese army that came from behind Yinshu and Wanyan Xiyin also accelerated its pace, this kind of city fortress with a perfect defense system, every time it was a critical juncture, the defenders in the city fortress would inevitably select the elite to choose the front to rush out to support the outer defenders. Efforts are made to maintain the integrity of the defense system. (The real battle of defending the city will inevitably have to be fought over repeatedly in the outer defense system, even if the mobile forces in the city are exhausted one by one.) Forcing the city walls to fight for the besieging side or repeatedly fighting for the periphery are two completely different things. The Song Dynasty defended Xiangfan, and fought for several years in the periphery, even if it was surrounded by a moat several hundred meters wide, and the fortified Xiangyang City was the most powerful in the world, and the defenders did not retreat to the city to defend it. And during the Jingkang period, the Bianliang defenders had no ability to resist and let the Jurchen army force the city to go down to the wall, and at the turn of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Guanning Iron Cavalry would almost only rely on the fortified city with cannons, which can only be said that the army's field ability and will to fight have degraded to a certain extent, and the army with a little combat effectiveness will never do this - Oscar press)

The Chinese army, which is composed of hundreds of heavy cavalry and more light cavalry mastered by Yinshu and Wanyan Xiyin, will have to fight back against the counterattacking defenders when the time comes!

Under the two black flags, Wanyan Xiyin raised his whip and pointed at the Jiazi Fort, which was almost overwhelmed by the crowd, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Yingzhou City is nothing more than this, but it is just a crushing of soil in front of the boots, and it is down. You've spent so much effort trying to lure these brutes out and clean them up, it's been in vain! I also look too highly at these barbarians! ”

Yinshu didn't move, stared at the battlefield deadly, and replied lightly: "It's not over yet, what's the hurry?" ”

Wanyan Xiyin smiled, and didn't care about Yinshuke's attitude, and glanced at the direction of Yingzhou City Fortress again, and said in surprise: "Are these barbarians really not able to fight, and they haven't come out yet?" That's late! ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At this moment, inside and outside Yingzhou City, whether it was above the city fortress or a few fortresses on the periphery, they all stared at the situation in front of the Jiazi Fort with wide eyes.

Needless to say, the defenders are already desperately trying to help Fort A. Arrows, crossbows, and locusts also shot sideways. But at this time, thousands of people saw that the fort was about to be broken, and their eyes were already red, and hundreds of people died, and they didn't feel that there was anything wrong. And the Jurchen military horses that followed behind, at this moment was the time when their soldiers were at their most fierce, when the Jurchens occupied the entire northern China, the ferocious spirit was greatly reduced, and they were still able to rush and kill dozens of times in front of the powerful stacked arrow formation of the Wu family army composed of the embers of the Western army. At this moment. Rain of arrows on the side of the fort. What is it in front of them in heavy armor?

The reason why several small forts can be fortified is because they can support each other. But at this moment, there is no arrow on the A-word fort, and there is no one behind the battlement, so what can you do by relying on a B-word fort alone?

The Yizi Fort guard watched the rain of arrows shot here like droplets falling into the sea, and knocked the battlement: "This surname is Meng." I just want to sacrifice the fort, so many weapons to defend the city, why don't you use it? Prisoner, don't let me meet this guy on the battlefield, it's either him or me at that time! ”

And the city of Yingzhou is plugged. Guo Rong also clenched her fists, and couldn't help but turn around and ask Ni Jie, the Chinese officer behind him: "Is Xuanfeng going to attack?" ”

Ni Jie replied loudly every time: "Meng Nuan, this guy has ill intentions!" Why don't you use the castle guards? How could these people who drove up the battle go straight to the front of Fort A? ”

When the Jurchen infantry warriors were about to cross the trench, Guo Rong hurriedly asked again: "If the front is not selected to attack, the Jurchen Tartars will open the Jiazi Fort!" ”

Ni Jie also had red eyes: "You can't let our brothers lure out for Meng Nuan!" The city is above and below, and all of our elites will be buried, and we will still guard the city of birds! ”

Ni Jie, who has always been cautious in front of Guo Rong, couldn't care about words at this time, and almost shouted in front of Guo Rong with a straight voice.

Guo Rong was stunned for a moment. Stomped his foot hard: "Can the Jiazi Fort be lost in one day?" ”

Ni Jie said loudly: "Isn't it because Meng Nuan, a thief, is in the army? Now I went to Fort A. Without this thief, it's clean! Let's just stick to the city fortress of Yingzhou! ”

Guo Rong was surrounded by generals. No one spoke.

Everyone knows in their hearts that it is an understatement to say that Fort A will be down in one day? The morale of the army in the city is not very stable, whether Meng Nuan takes the initiative to open the city or not, but if the battle situation is like this, the army's spirit is afraid that it will be even more shaken, and it will be more difficult to defend the city in the future. God knows if we can hold out until the defenders from the south meet us!

Who made Meng Nuan's guy so deep and terrifying, everyone was suspicious of him, but they still couldn't move his hand. He had to be sent to the closest place to the Jurchen Tartars safely, so that he could surrender his fort!

How can you meet such a character in a border place? I knew that I should have ignored it at that time, and I cut him clean with a knife!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At this moment when the Jurchen army was immediately high-spirited, and everyone inside and outside the city fortress of Yingzhou was burned. At the head of the fort, a heavy drum suddenly sounded, and this drum was not too loud. But Guo Rong, the head of Yingzhou City, and the silver art under the banner outside the city can be compared with Wanyan Xiyin, and they are all shocked when they hear it!

In an instant, dozens of figures appeared on the Jiazi Fort, and at first, a hundred and ten gray bottles were smashed down with their heads and faces. The ash bottle shattered in the crowd, and white smoke filled the people's heads. Before they could react, the defenders pulled up the cauldron with a pulley and tilted the boiling gold juice down.

The boiling gold juice poured on his body with an unpleasant smell, and it immediately aroused a scream that was not like a human voice! Even if you are wearing armor, you can't stop the gold juice that will be drilled when it hits the cracks, as long as it is touched, even the belt meat will be scalded off! Moreover, so many ash bottles were thrown down in front of him, and the quicklime boiled when it met the water, and a large cloud of white smoke suddenly rose under the fort wall, as if it was boiling a pot. I don't know how many people are angry, burning the boiling quicklime and dancing, screaming and running around. Some of them have more quicklime on their bodies, and as soon as they are poured into the golden juice, they are roasted alive in an instant!

It turned out that dozens of long ladders were densely packed with ants and besieging the people, crackling and falling continuously. The crowd of hedgehogs under the city was also chaotic at once, and headless flies seemed to drill everywhere. I don't know where to run. Even if there are still people who want to shout and command to stabilize people's hearts, but the screams are resounding all over the sky, where else can anyone hear them?

The defenders of the city did not stop, and then threw out the black earthen pot filled with fire oil. These are all artifacts in the Great Song Army, which were allocated from the Shenwu Changsheng Army. The viscous oil was scattered everywhere as the crockpot shattered, and more than a dozen rockets fell, and a sea of fire suddenly rose from under the fortress wall. I don't know how many people were set on fire at the moment, screaming and running around. If you hit someone else, you set everyone else on fire. Some people want to roll on the ground and extinguish the flames on their bodies, but the fire is so powerful that it can be extinguished lightly? After rolling a few times, he twitched and gradually did not move, burning and curled up in a ball.

Thousands of people who struggled to the front of the Jiazi Fort, in just a moment, they didn't know how many had fallen! The remnants of the people have completely collapsed, and in their hearts, there is no more harsh orders from the Jurchen Tartars, no longer any thoughts of struggling to survive, all they want is to stay away from this Shura field!

Under the Jiazi Fort, the original dense crowd, like an ant's nest encountering water, ran and fled with all the shouts, leaving only the raging fire, billowing black smoke, tired corpses, and the smell of burnt corpses under the Jiazi Fort!

On the B-word fort, the guard who was originally pointing to the A-word fort and put down the scolding was stunned, stared at the scene in front of him blankly, and muttered to himself after a while: "This surnamed Meng is a straight thief!" ”

On top of Yingzhou City, Guo Rong and others were all stunned. Could it be that everyone has mistaken this surname Meng again?

Guo Rong turned around and asked Ni Jie again: "Do you want to attack at this moment?" ”

Ni Jie swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said, "No need, such a scene, do the Jurchen Tartars still dare to attack the Jiazi Fort today?" ”

And under the two black flags, Wanyan Xiyin, who was still smiling just now, had a blue face at the moment. Silversmithing can be meritorious, and naturally it is not something he likes to see. But the small fortresses are so stubborn and difficult to attack, and it is not good news for the Jurchen military horses, you must know that Zong Han is still waiting for the passage of Yingzhou to be opened! Since he was sent here for Zong Han to be a pioneer and rendezvous with Yinshu, he naturally had to bear the responsibility together. Yingzhou can't beat it, and Zong Han can't get through it.

But the guard surnamed Meng in Jiazi Fort was too ruthless. It could have been lightly repelled by these thousands of people who forced the city. But he put them in the closest, so calm. In the end, at least a thousand lives were taken away!

Such a tragic scene, Wan Yan Xiyin looked a little frightened.

Beside him, a cold voice sounded from Yinshuke: "Beat the drum, urge Hu Lu Mouke to come forward and grab this fortress!" (To be continued.) )
