Chapter 129: A two-pronged approach

Looking at the few logs pushed out by the Texas Army, Wan Yanchang pouted and sneered, is this trying to break the village with a rushing car? It was so naïve, and he didn't look at what this place was, but as many of you people came up and shot as many as he wanted, and with a wave of his hand, the archers on the wall immediately bent their bows and arrows and aimed at the enemy who had taken them off. The soldiers of the Texas Army immediately became timid, hiding out of the range of their bows and arrows and did not dare to step forward, and the crashing wood was also thrown in front of the village and turned around and ran back to their main formation.

Wan Yanchang couldn't help but laugh when he saw the performance of the Texas Army, but before his laughter fell, he felt as if there was a thunder in his ears, and the crashing wood that was placed on the plucked suddenly erupted into flames. Before he could react, he felt a strong wind passing by, and the archers on the wall fell from the wall screaming as if they had been swept away by the cold wind. The walled building built with a thick wooden cup 'creak' fell backwards with a strange scream, and the sturdy walled door was full of large and small holes, turning into a sieve, as if an old lady could kick the door apart!

"Block the enemy..."Wan Yanchang didn't expect his first line of defense to be breached like this, and shouted loudly to organize the soldiers to come forward to block the walled gate, but he couldn't hear the echo, and could only roar over and over again, until he saw the soldiers pushing the cart forward to block the walled gate.

'Boom...' There were a few dull explosions, and the gate in front of the Sichuan Pass was completely destroyed, turning into a pile of rotten wood, and behind it was a group of Jurchens with broken arms and legs rolling and screaming in pain, Wan Yanchang pushed away a headless corpse pressed on his body, pulled out a piece of broken wood embedded in the flesh, and looked at the tragic scene blankly. My mind went blank.

"Don't retreat, hold the river!" Wan Yanchang slashed down a soldier who retreated with a frightened face. Another roar. Grab an officer who ran by, and ask him to immediately organize people to re-seal the valley. But he was frightened, he just opened his mouth and didn't make a sound, so angry that he stabbed him again and knocked him over, now it's okay, no one dares to move anymore, they all look at him with blank eyes...

Under Wan Yanchang's 'good' reputation in the past, the Jurchens finally moved and discharged their defensive formation. In the front is a sword player with a large shield, in the middle is a pikeman in iron armor, and at the back are two teams of archers, more than a thousand people formed a great wall of flesh and blood to block the valley mouth.

After Yan Chang breathed a sigh of relief, at this time, he felt as if his head had suddenly been poured into the wind, as if a swarm of bees had pressed into his head, and his ears were 'buzzing', and he raised his hand to clasp his ears and eyes, but they were full of blood. It turned out that the ear was broken. He looked at the corpse of the officer who had been dragged aside, and knew that he might have killed the wrong person, but if he did, he would kill him, and who had made him unlucky to hit him on the edge of his knife. No one here dares to ask about their sins!

"Boss, the power of this pine cannon is not small!" Zhang Ting plucked out his ears and smiled and pointed to the logs that were still smoking in front of the formation, and said, he was still itching his ears fifty steps away. It's no wonder that Wan Yanchang was deaf.

"The method is thought up by people, and the living can't let urine suffocate to death!" Zhao Tan chuckled. Yesterday, when Ji Lu planned to attack Huluchuan, he pondered how to break through the door quickly. Attract the Jurchens to the side of the walled gate. Of course, using a cannon is the best way to do it, so he looked at the mountains of trees and had an idea.

Zhao Ta ordered the craftsmen of the baggage camp to cut down the trees overnight, and then sawed the big tree in half, took out the hole with the thickness of the bowl in the center, and then put it together as one, and tightly wound it with hemp rope, and the main body was formed. There will be no conditions for experimentation, so you can only try to come, add gunpowder, then stuff in the gravel, drill out of the fire door and plug in the letter tube, a cannon that has hit the Japanese devils heavily during the anti-Japanese period will be successful.

Of course, this thing is an emergency when there is no way, not only because the seal is not tight, resulting in air leakage, so that the power is reduced, and once the charge is too large or the seal is too tight, it becomes a landmine, which harms itself. Again, this is a one-time consumable, which cannot be reused and cannot replace iron artillery. But it is still enough to coax the uninformed Jurchens, the power is small, the range is close, let's push it closer, and if there is danger, we won't stay away!

"Boss, why don't we take the opportunity to attack it?" Zhang Ting asked suspiciously.

"Don't worry, you have to leave some time for Zhang Kui's kid, wait for him to start fighting, let's attack again!" Zhao said.

"Boss, if the enemy finds that their back road is cut off, will they make a desperate bet and seal the valley mouth, then Zhang Kui and they will be in danger, we can't get in, and they can't get out. Wan Yanchang is a ruthless person, he is likely to do this! Zhang Ting said worriedly.

"People who kill indiscriminately don't look at their lives as careless, but they are often cowardly, they cover their inner fear with killing, and try to kill all their potential enemies by killing, but in fact, butchers are the ones who cherish their lives the most. Therefore, Wan Yanchang will not let himself fall into death, after he found out about our attempt, he first stormed the pass, trying to open up the connection with the rear camp, because he also knew what it was to lose grain and grass in Lu Dao; The second is that after the attack fails, he will desperately break through and fight for himself to survive! Zhao Ta sneered and said, now they just need to wait for the rabbit.

"Zhilu Dao, boss!" Zhang Ting nodded and said, secretly digesting the prince's truth, he was still not at ease, and secretly sent people to carry machine guns to the two hills on the left and right of the walled gate, and after the battle started, those who were responsible for 'beating the sticks and playing with black guns' were all abrupt!

"Boss, Du Shuai sent someone to report, Wan Yan Xiyin led 20,000 troops to Baishuiluo yesterday, and he is looking for our traces, Du Shuai is acting according to the plan!" Just as the two sides were confronting each other, Zhang Ting whispered in the ear of the prince.

"They're so fast, at this speed, it's time to get there when it's dark!" Zhao Ta frowned and said.

Yesterday, Zhao Ta considered attacking Huluchuan, a place with narrow terrain and a narrow attack surface, it was useless to leave so many people, it was better to divide the troops to attack, he led the first brigade to be responsible for solving Huluchuan, and Zhao Yong led the second brigade and the third brigade to attack, entangled and harassed the reinforcements sent by Aguta, lured them to Huluchuan, and boiled with Yan Chang. The premise of this plan is to ensure that they have control of Huluchuan, and they didn't expect that Wanyan Xiyin's marching speed was not slow, and they ran for three hundred miles in one day and one night, fortunately they didn't stay in the big camp for long, otherwise they would have been right.

"Boss, there are gunshots in the valley, Zhang Kui, they are doing it!" In the anxious waiting, Zhang Ting finally heard a fierce gunfire faintly coming from the valley... (To be continued.) )
