Section 11 Battle of Chang'an (4)

"This captive chieftain too." Liu Qi's saber had already curled up again, and he was supported by his own soldiers, so he threw down his saber, took the iron-tired bow from the victory hook, and shot it with an arrow.

Liu Qi's bow and arrow were famous in the Song army, or before the Northern Expedition to Yanyun in the year of Xuanhe, Liu Qi gambled with an officer of the Western Army, first shot through the wine barrel with an arrow, and then plugged the gap with an arrow.

He looked at Liu Qi closely, and was thinking about how to deploy military horses to stop this chaotic tide, when he suddenly heard Han Chang beside him shouting, jumped from the horse, and threw the Wushu off the horse.

Wushu fell on the hand, and was about to get angry, but saw Han Chang with a feather arrow stuck in his left eye.

Han Changzi Yuanji, a native of Yanjing, is the most brave Han general in the Jin Army, and is also the favorite general of Wanyan Wushu, and history says that his arm strength can open a "three-stone hard bow"

In history, in the Battle of Fuping, Han Chang was shot in the left eye by a stray arrow of Jingyuan soldiers, and he was drenched in blood.

Han Chang shouted, directly pulled out the arrow shot in his left eye, grabbed a handful of dirt with his hand, and put it in his eye. first helped Wan Yan Wushu to get on the horse, and then jumped on the horse himself, leading the guards to protect Yan Wushu and retreat.

Under the city of Chang'an, Zhang Jun got news from Liu Qi, saying that a surprise attack had forced Suo Lu to retreat for thirty miles, and Suo Lu could not come to Chang'an for reinforcements for the time being, and he was peaceful and peaceful.

"Good!" Zhang Jun praised the festival, "We must seize the opportunity to solve the Yan Lou room." Come on, I'll send another war book to Yan Lou's room. ”

Wanyan Lou Room in Chang'an City also got the news of Wanyan Liduo Brothers' small setback, he received Zhang Jun's war letter, and when everyone thought he was going to ignore it again, Wanyan Lou Room said to the interpreter: "Just write on the back of the war book: Tomorrow's decisive battle." Send him back. ”

When the generals of the Jin soldiers heard Yan Lou Room say this, they all grinded their fists and clapped their hands, wanting to win a fortune.

After everyone dispersed, Wanyan Huonu asked, "Daddy, why don't you delay it for a few days, and wait until Liduo and Wushu come before making plans?" ”

"Although the Song army has 200,000 people, but it is just a pile of rookies, a few days ago, you watched the camp of the Song army with me, and you have already seen the bottom."

"But the Song army can defeat the Oriduo brothers......"

"The one who attacked Liduo must be the more powerful army in the Song army, they are in Fuping, then the army here is weaker, don't take advantage of his illness and ask for his life, what are you waiting for?"

"Daddy, my son still thinks that he has to wait for the vultures to come to the ......."

"Hmph." Wan Yan Lou slapped the handrail angrily, "According to the Han people, 'I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves', originally Hedong and Hexi were all allowed to me on the west road, and these two brothers smelled the fishy smell, so they came to grab food." They have already promised Bertt to leave the supplement, and Chi Zhanhui and others have divided Hexi. ”

"It's hateful!" Wanyan Huonu shouted, "Birdt is away from making up for a Khitan general, and he dares to ask for a fief? ”

Wanyan Lou said: "Although the area of Hexi is wide, but it can be talked about rich, it is also the area of Yongxing Road in Guanzhong, and I wait for the father and son to occupy this piece, so we will not suffer too much, and the land of wind and sand in the west and north, and other people will be entangled with Xixia." ”

"The child understands that if Wanyan Liduo and Wanyan Wushu come to Chang'an with a large army, it will be easy to invite God to send God. Therefore, it is necessary to defeat Zhang Jun as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Jun received Wanyan Lou's reply, and he was overjoyed, so he ordered to gather troops and horses to compete with Wanyan Lou's room.

"The verdict is announced, the morale of the armies is low, what can I do?" Liu Ziyu asked.

Zhang Jun sighed: "For the generals, it is necessary to examine the soldiers and stimulate the victory, and it is necessary to know that it is difficult to hold on for a long time." I also have to think of a way to boost morale. What is Ziyu's opinion? ”

In battlefield confrontations, often the one with more soldiers wins. I currently have more than 100,000 troops stationed outside Chang'an City, and we can conduct a review. On the one hand, it increases the confidence of the soldiers; Second, it is also possible to show off force to Suolu. Kill two birds with one stone. ”

"It's a brilliant plan."

In front of the camp of the Song army, a high platform was quickly erected. After Yan Lou got the news, he looked at the city tower for a while, and he didn't know what to do:

"Is this a watchtower? How did it build on flat ground? It is not as high as the city walls. When built on a hill is. ”

"If it is a watchtower, it will not be so wide, and it will be three zhang square."

The generals of the Jin soldiers discussed for a while, and after Yan Lou's room, he told the city tower to strengthen the sentry and return to his residence to rest.

The next day, when the sky was light, the soldiers came to report: "The Song army is singing a big opera under the city." ”

The high platform of the Song army was more than ten miles away, and flags fluttered everywhere. Groups of sentry soldiers, riding or walking, were all fully armed, patrolling around, their armor and swords all polished brightly.

Zhang Jun, Liu Ziyu and others, early in the morning, left the camp and went straight to Gaotai.

The heads of the various battalions that were included in the review team also traveled in droves. The drums and horns sounded in unison, the momentum shook the sky, more than 10,000 people, divided into multiple echelons, stretching out for several miles. Looking down from the sky, the plain between Shanzhou, Chengwu and the Song military camp is densely packed, and there are Song soldiers with bright armor everywhere.

The scouts of the Jin army came back to report: the southern generals, the colonel, and the ministers, all three armies have moved, and they have all reached the west of the city. Guards along the border, sentry posts. It is difficult for the villain to take a closer look, only from a distance, it seems that all the Song army and army have arrived, and there are no less than 10,000 people. ”

"Let's find out and report again."

On both sides of the high platform in the west of the city, there were 200 strong soldiers, 100 people beat drums, and 100 people blew trumpets.

The drums and horns rang in unison, the sound vibrated the ground, and it was heard far away, and it was faintly heard in Chang'an City, which was more than ten miles away, and even in various county towns thirty or forty miles away. All the armies and battalions stood in their positions, and when they heard the sound of drums and horns, the foot soldiers all raised their spears and shouted on the ground; The cavalry also raised their spears and shouted in unison.

Of course, Zhang Jun couldn't pull out more than 100,000 people, and this time, more than 10,000 representative people came and shouted in unison, and the prestige can be imagined.

It is like a spring thunder suddenly rising in silence, just like a river bursting its embankment in the middle of the night. The waves of the Hanhai Sea set off huge waves; The iron flow rushed, hitting the cliff of a thousand thousands. If you let the faint-hearted people hear it unexpectedly, you can be frightened by just one moment.

The river in the distance seemed to be quiet, and the hazy sky seemed to suddenly disperse. Countless forest birds flew up; The hares and pheasants were frightened, and the wolves ran wildly, covered their heads, and ran about. The scouts of the Yan and Wu armies who were lurking a few miles away did not feel that they trembled because of it, as if they were unstable; His face was pale, and he wanted to be careful. It's so powerful!

Three calls, three falls.

The sound of the drum horn stopped.

The cool breeze is gentle, and the wilderness is quiet. The Song army began to walk in front of the high platform one battalion after another, these Song troops were in a strict formation, their fighting spirit was high, and Rao was Wanyan Lou was the hostile party, and they couldn't help nodding: "The day before yesterday, I saw that the Song army's camp was loose, and I neglected it." ”

At noon, the last force, the Tielin Army. The Tielin Army is an army established by the Song State in imitation of the Iron Harrier of Western Xia, and everyone is covered in iron armor and can fight on and off their horses. During the Battle of Yanyun, Tong Guan originally wanted to mobilize the Tielin Army, but the whole army was too heavy, so he gave up due to the lack of pack horses.

The Tielin army is all strong men, wearing heavy armor and carrying heavy axes.

Thousands of people moved in unison, even louder than the previous cavalry passing by. It was like a dark cloud, and it was like a mountain rain coming. From a distance, it looks like a moving fortress. The sharp axe makes people tremble when they look at it. Brush and brush, step down, the high platform is slightly shaking.

The soldiers of the various battalions around were all cheering, but when they saw such a momentum, they all unconsciously closed their mouths, watched in amazement, and became silent.

Heavy armor, heavy armor, and the weight is not light, but it can still practice formations.

First, the battalion generals and colonels came out of the ranks, and loudly issued orders to their subordinates, so that the orders were repeated, and then the military flag was lowered and the formation moved forward; The military flag is waved twice, and the latter is the first; The military flag was lowered three times, and the army turned around again, rushing forward.

and the sound of flags and drums and horns.

White flags and drums sounded, and the left and right were in unison. Zhu Qi pointed, the horn moved, and the left and right were separated. Neither the union nor the separation are separated from the central place. The left army rotates in the yang direction, the right army rotates in the yin direction, and the left and right sides are the same as the original. Then, the white flag fell, the drums sounded, the clouds on the left and right were steaming and the birds were scattered, and the rivers were in the wilderness, but the queue was tight. In the end, the Zhu flag fell, the horn moved, and the left and right copies of the original. The front and back, left and right, and the interval are dense, and there is no difference in size from the beginning. The white flag and the Zhu flag soared together, the drums and horns sounded in unison, and then they moved forward neatly, and when they arrived at the high stage, they raised their axes together, slashed down, and thousands of people shouted in unison: Drink! Drink! The general is mighty! Iron Forest Army!

This drill was originally the subject of their daily training, and it was launched at this time, before and after, separated and gathered, and there was no mistake at all, just like flowing water.

The more than 10,000 Song soldiers who were watching were all excited, until they crossed the stage and retreated, then they reacted, and they couldn't help but agree, and burst into applause: Okay!

The sky was overcast, Zhang Jun stood on the high platform, stood up with his sword, watched the more than 10,000 morale-boosting tigers, laughed, looked left and right, and said to Liu Ziyu: "I have an army of 200,000, and I have this Western Army legacy, how can I worry about the little Wanyan Lou room!" Ziyu, tell me, who can break this kind of Iron Forest Army? ”

"The Tielin Army has been famous for a long time, but I didn't know it had such a prestige! With this ten thousand generations, you can support the Song room. With these 100,000 generations, rivers and mountains can be recreated. ”

"Xiao Jin, this Tielin Army seems to be very powerful." A general said beside Wanyan Lou's room.

"This is a demonstration to us."

"Now it's time to send someone to call for battle."

Wan Yan Lou laughed: "A dry iron can, in front of me, is just a local chicken and tile dog, child, you go down first and prepare." After Zhang Jun sent someone to call for the battle, after our army left the city, it was like this. ”

Zhang Jun really sent the general to call the battle, and Yan Lou laughed: "The Song army has been tossing since early in the morning, and now that the lunch is over, it has started to call the battle, Zhang Jun, this child, is really a stupid donkey." ”

The east gate of Chang'an slowly opened, and a group of cavalry, about seven or eight hundred people, fully armed, armed with bows, rushed out first, put down the drawbridge, crossed the moat, and lined up the defensive formation.

The Jin soldiers are out of the city.
