Putting the right direction, setting the elevation angle, and quickly building the Wangshan Mountain, the soldiers of the heavy battalion skillfully calculated the distance and the arc of the stone, while loudly giving orders downward, and the hideous cannons were making subtle adjustments, and Ding Zhuang was sweating like rain, shouting trumpets, pushing the heavy cannons, or left or right, or front or back, making corrections.
Thirty-seven cannons, the Tiger Wusheng Army has exhausted everything, because it can be disassembled, it is much more convenient to transport, to the river, under the city of Jiezhou a little hideous, and then to Linfen, a winter, the craftsmen in the army rushed out more than 40 bodies, but compared to these transported from Chang'an, the production of zuΓ² can not be so detailed, and the range is far from comparable.
The firing range is between five or six hundred paces, and it can be disassembled, but because it is made of local materials, it cannot be durable, that is to say, it will be used for a while and a half, but it cannot be lasted, and the destruction rate is amazing.
After noon, as the flag danced, the herald issued a military order hoarsely
Suddenly, there was a dull loud noise in the formation of the Qin army under the city, and countless black shadows flew up violently, which was extremely clear under the sunlight.
The boulder emptied, with a terrifying whistling sound, drawing a graceful arc, as if falling slowly and quickly.
If you don't see it with your own eyes, you are dreaming, and you probably won't dream of such a terrifying scene, the boulder roars under your nose, and it roars like a thunderbolt echoing in your ears.
Some smashed on the city wall, some flew on the battlements, some directly crossed the city wall, flew into the city, the earth was shaking, the city wall was shaking, the power of heaven and earth was general, people could not resist, and even could not dodge, the stones were splashed, the houses collapsed, the dust covered the sky, and the end came.
The Qin army under the city looked blankly at the fact that even the "culprits" of the heavy battalion were shocked by this scene and were speechless for a long time, such a siege weapon, once it becomes a scale, the consequences caused by it are not comparable to one or two bodies at all.
There was no golden soldier on the city wall for a long time, and it was not until half an hour later that the sharp shouts faintly sounded at the head of the city and under the city, which was mixed with the painful wails of countless people, but no one on the city dared to brow their heads again, and the most courageous golden soldiers could only hide behind the battlements with pale faces and fear, praying not to be smashed by the stones that fell from the sky.
"What are you doing? Quick, again, again, three more rounds.
Du Chengqing used his big voice that he practiced in the National Military Supervision Department, and kept roaring, his voice was already a little hoarse, and his eyes were glaring, and it was full of bloodshot that looked a little scary, where was there a trace of the breath that a scholar should have?
In the squeaky sound, the throwing arm was pressed down again into a terrifying arc, and Ding Zhuang quickly packed the huge stones, and the sound of the command was short, crisp and indifferent.
The rumbling sound, as if it was thunder, the southern city of Fenzhou was subjected to the fiercest attack in history, and it also tested the fortification of the walls of this century-old town and the endurance of the defenders.
Zhao Shi looked coldly at the Fenzhou city wall that was trembling from time to time in this kind of attack, and he was not much moved, after seeing it, he was a rain of bullets, and he was not much surprised by the scene caused by such a primitive thing as throwing cannons, he silently guessed in his heart, how many times can such a heavy city wall withstand such a heavy blow?
If the effect is average, that's it, if the city wall can be broken in this way, then how many cities in the world can't be captured?
Mu Huali, who was standing next to him, looked particularly excited, the young Mongol, as if he was born for the battle array, he was frantically absorbing a qiΔ can be used to defeat the opponent's methods, and the power of the cannon, let him feel shocked at the same time, but also deeply engraved this catastrophic scene into his mind, can no longer be erased.
Zhao Youyan, Wang Shengbao and the others opened their mouths slightly, the first time they saw such an earth-shattering scene, their hearts were full of shock and shock, their hearts were beating wildly, the blood was speeding up, and there were goosebumps on their bodies from time to time, they were indeed shocked.
Monk Wanyan was also staring blankly at this shocking and terrifying scene, the huge stone easily flew over the city wall, fell to the ground like a meteor, the sound was deafening, and then it rolled, and everything in front of it was almost like tissue paper, torn and smashed, until the stone slowed down and stopped this terrible rolling.
The soldiers were running in fear, the wounded were wailing helplessly, and then, all of them were covered in dust, fog, like the wind and sand on the grassland descending on the world.
A boulder flew extraordinarily far, fell suddenly, smashed on a house close to the city wall, directly penetrated the roof, did not enter, and then threw out from the side, a huge stone, like a naughty child, bouncing, and broke into another house, booming loudly, but from the main entrance through, spinning on the street, unwillingly stopped, not far from the house, can't help this kind of rage, in the eyes of the monk Wanyan, like slow motion, collapsed.
A group of pro-soldiers were shocked, hugged the monk Wanyan, and the generals with colorless faces, turned around and withdrew from the distance, and at the last glance, the monk Wanyan could clearly see the mottled stones and the fresh flesh and blood hanging on them.
Monk Wanyan violently broke away, waiting for a blood-red eye, and roared, "Order, order, all retreat, send a team of ten people to the city, wait for those who are enough to support the siege, and then send people up" Wang Xiu, ask him to come to see me. β
"Restrain the Han army, those who disturb the morale of the army, behead."
"Cheer me up, with Monk Lou Wanyan here, the sky can't fall."
The Han soldiers who had been granted amnesty retreated one after another, far away from the place where the huge stone was raging, and looked ahead in horror.
Under the effective measures, the casualties quickly dropped, and under the inventory, the casualties were hundreds, and there were not many who were stoned to death immediately, most of them were injured by rubble, and the hearts of the generals of the golden soldiers finally settled down a little.
Now they only hope that the Qin people can attack the city as soon as possible, if this is the case...... If you smash it, no one knows if the city wall can still support it?
Monk Wanyan stared at the direction of the city, although the Qin people were sharp in throwing stones, but it was not enough to take Fenzhou, and the most fearful thing was the "fire attack" hoping that the Han dog would only take the city, not to burn Fenzhou to the ground, otherwise
Thinking of this, the monk Wanyan ordered sharply, "Pass the order, prepare more earth and stones, water tools, and guard against the opponent's fire attack" called Yelugonu, Abao, Wanyan Lushun, Yan Yan gathered his soldiers and went to the east gate to standby. β
"Wang Xiu."
Grizzled and fearful, Wang Xiu has already arrived, "The last general." β
"I'll leave it to you here, if there's a mistake, I won't spare you."
"The herald is light and heavy, you can stop."
"Beat the drum, herald Hu Weinan, Zhang Shenyuan" led the troops to attack the city. β
In the sound of the order, the war drums in the army rumbled, and the Qin soldiers in the front began to sort out the queue"
The leading officer was loudly encouraging morale, and then "under an order, a shout broke out in front of the Qin army's formation, resounding through the heavens and the earth, looking down from the sky, in the Qin army's large array, rows of Qin soldiers poured out, and walked forward quickly, like a flood, overflowing the open space under the city, and surging up to the city of Fenzhou.
The ant-like soldiers, carrying the ladder, arrived at the city in a short time, and the ladder was lowered to the ground, and many soldiers immediately stood up, and then in the hoarse shouts of the soldiers, they were erected and slowly built up on the city wall.
The most tragic phase of the siege battle finally began.
But this time, the city did not shoot arrows in the middle of the way, so that the Qin soldiers arrived safely under the city.
However, at this time, there was finally a sound on the head of the city, and groups of golden soldiers, in the shouts of the generals, finally poured onto the city before the Qin soldiers climbed the wall, and firmly occupied all parts of the city.
The arrows began to shoot down sporadically, and then they became much more dense, with the Qin soldiers raising their round shields to cover the rain of arrows at the head of the city, and the archers in the rear bent their bows and arrows to shoot at the head of the city.
Blood began to flow, human lives began to fade, from time to time someone fell, and then someone made up for it, the primitive and ancient siege battle, the same tragic, the same no beauty, but the same thrilling, the same magnificent.
From a distance, the tall but potholed city wall that has been smashed has been full of Qin soldiers, several cloud ladders have finally been erected, and the Qin soldiers who went up with the cloud ladders jumped on the city wall violently, and were directly cut down, screaming and falling, smashing on the top of the Qin army under the city, making a muffled sound.
Some waved their blades in their hands, parryed attacks, and quickly jumped off the battlements to fight with the golden soldiers.
As more and more people went up, the shouting and killing suddenly went up a step, it seemed extraordinarily noisy, every moment, someone fell, every moment, someone let out a howl before death, the blood was spreading, the stumps and broken arms were increasing, the wielding knives and guns, the entangled crowd, in a moment, on the head of Fenzhou City, it was like hell.
"Sue sΓΉ Wang Xiu, send more people up, even if you squeeze, you have to squeeze the Qin people down."
Seeing that on the city wall, there are more and more Qin soldiers, and the Han army is unsupported, and the monk Wanyan also knows that because of the Qin people's cannons, many tricks to defend the city have become decorations, and the difficulty of defending the city can be imagined, but he still commanded sharply.
At this time, Wang Xiu had already come to the city wall, the arrows were whistling in the air, and the corpses were repeatedly planted from the city wall, but he didn't blink his eyes, in fact, he didn't need to be ordered by Monk Wanyan, he was a battle-hardened general, so he naturally knew that it was a matter of life and death at this time, where would there be any hesitation?
Loudly and continuously ordered, a team of gold soldiers had been prepared to rush up the city wall, and the city wall was immediately overcrowded, and after a short time, people were already squeezed and fell from the city wall screaming.
There is less and less room for the Qin soldiers to exert themselves, as the number of Jin soldiers going to the city is increasing, on the city wall, people are crowded one by one, but there are still people who keep squeezing up, and soon, there is not much space, the Qin soldiers are brave again, at this time they can only continue to helplessly retreat, one step, two steps, and finally lean on the battlements, so that the Qin soldiers who climbed up behind have no foothold.
It seems to be a bit of a scoundrel, but it works, on the crowded city wall, there are constantly Qin people falling, and soon the momentum of the attack is contained, on the city wall, "swords and guns are no longer useless, most of the fallen people are immediately trampled to death, the sound of wailing, gradually overshadowing the sound of fighting, so that the generals of the Qin army under the city once again saw the cruelty of the siege battle.
Seeing that the attack was frustrated, Chong Huaiyu "decisively ordered" that the Qin army was in the middle of the formation, the gong sounded, and the Qin army retreated like a tide.
But there was no cheering on the walls, and there were constant figures being squeezed down from the walls, falling under the corpse-strewn walls, and falling into pulp.
Chong Huaiyu's face was pale, and when the Qin soldiers retreated, he immediately ordered the rice battalion to bombard the city wall. After the temptation, Chong Huaiyu then ordered the front army to move forward and stop when it was more than 400 steps away from the city wall, and ordered the craftsmen of the heavy battalion to "continue to erect throwing artillery."
The madness of the Jin people is somewhat unexpected, but its weakness has also been seen clearly, with the Qin army throwing artillery, the Fenzhou in front of him must be in the pocket of the Tiger Wusheng army.
The whistling sound of the boulder once again became the main theme of the battlefield, and this time, the Jin soldiers and Han army, who had not yet had time to retreat, paid a heavier price.
The boulder roared and fell on the head of the city, "In the city, the golden soldiers who had not had time to retreat looked desperately at the stones falling in front of them and behind them, or even on their heads, there was not much room to dodge, so they could only run back desperately, but in the roar of the stones falling to the ground, there were always several figures that were smashed to pieces, and blood was splashed, like a mist permeating the left and right.
I don't know how many people screamed and fell, their heads were broken and bleeding from the rubble, and how many people were chased by the tumbling boulders, breaking their bones and tendons, or being crushed into flesh.
The tragedy is unspeakable, and those who can face this scene squarely, what kind of cold heart will they have? This is war, the war that men yearn for, but is an ugly mess.
But the generals of the two sides, and even the soldiers, will not have so much emotion, and they have no time to have such poetic feelings, and the generals of the Han army are trying their best to collect the soldiers, count the casualties, and appease the morale of the army.
And the Qin people were not idle, the doctors of the heavy battalion, a large group of men and women, interspersed in the military formation, treating the wounded, the officers were counting the casualties, calming a burst of killing, almost exhausted, plus some frightened subordinates, the young soldiers, although they were childish, but at this moment, they were covered by the orderly and well-prepared means brought about by the orderly, showing a few different calmness.
"Report, the Qin army has advanced 500 steps in front, and there are artillery throwers.
The muscles on Monk Wanyan's face twitched irrepressibly, but he did not hesitate to order: "Send an order to Yelugonu, let him wait for the next attack of the Qin people, and immediately lead all the cavalry out of the city, even if he dies, he will break those cannons for me." β
It was a complete gamble, because he knew that with these cannons, Fenzhou would undoubtedly fall, and the Qin people were so strong and well prepared that they had exceeded expectations too much.
Five thousand elite horsemen, five thousand Jurchens, Khitan Erlang, came to Fenzhou, and more than 1,000 people have been lost, and this time, I don't know how many people can come back safely? If the Taiyuan reinforcements can't come quickly, how many days can this Fenzhou hold?
At this moment, Monk Wanyan was full of anger and helplessness, and there was a hint of gloom
The stone fell like rain, this time, the south city wall of Fenzhou was close to the left, it was like a stone rain, the city gate suspension bridge had already been smashed to smithereens, if it wasn't for Wang Xiu's order to block it with stones in advance, the city might be broken in front of you.
The city wall was shaking, as if it would collapse at any moment, and the houses near the city wall in the southern part of the city were swept away in the stone rain, leaving only some ruins and desolate ones.
The casualties are not counted, but the homeless people are crying, and then they are ruthlessly driven away by the guards of the city, Wang Xiu can no longer care so much, and then ordered the whole city to pull Ding Zhuang, help the Han army to defend the city, Fenzhou City is the whole study, take the opportunity to loot, want to take the family out of the city for refuge, abound, but compared to the tragic situation in the south city, it is much inferior.
The Han army continued to divide manpower, and everywhere in the city of Anjing, in this battle, the number of casualties in Fenzhou was incalculable.
"Order, continue the siege."
"Tiger, Tiger"
"Wu Sheng, Wu Sheng, Wu Sheng."
The wild shouts of the Qin soldiers resounded in the sky, and another attack and defense, another collision, opened the gate of hell.
"Report" the east gate of Fenzhou, there are Jin soldiers and cavalry out
In the shouting of killing, the voice was a little blurred, and Zhao Shi waved his hand, "Explore again." β
Immediately, "Mu Huali, Wang Shengbao." β
"The end will be."
The battle in front of him made Zhao Shi a little uncontrollable, the smell of gunsmoke and blood"
It's so refreshing that people can't always give up.
Zhao Shi pressed the different kind of excitement in his heart, and sneered: "Someone went out of the city to die, let's fulfill him, the two of you led the cavalry army, under the control of Du Menglin, and the archers of the Chinese army were all transferred to tell him, be sure to call the enemy out of the city to have no return, and then move to the east gate and attack the city." β
"Obey."
The two warriors shouted the order and turned away.
Zhao Shi then ordered: "Send an order to Chong Huaiyu to guard against some right wings, but don't worry, just attack the city." β
The herald ordered the soldiers to leave.
Zhao Shi raised his head and looked at the head of Fenzhou City, "The fighting there is still so fierce, and there is still some lack of fire, it seems that it is not impossible to go down to Fenzhou in one day, the power of the artillery, and the blow to the morale of the enemy, the effect is unexpectedly good."
He didn't expect that he could take the important town of Fenzhou in one day, but now it has become possible, the first time to attack the city, the experience is still a little lacking and can he think that the important town in the river guarded by tens of thousands of troops will be so vulnerable?
The combat power of the Jin Ren Han Army once again dropped a notch in Zhao Shi's heart.
"Zhao Youyan."
"The end will be."
"You take 5,000 men and horses to the west gate of Fenzhou" to test it, you don't have to force it. β
"Yes."
On the battlefield, there are always ever-changing, Zhao Shi originally thought that there were few soldiers under his command, and it would be enough to attack one of them, but now it seems that the siege of three is missing one, but it can also be done.
The Qin army retreated again, and the Han army under Wang Xiu's department, whether it was morale or combat strength, could be described as strong, which was second to none in the Han army of the Jin State, but as the war progressed, in the face of the Qin army, which was becoming more and more demoralized, the collapse had gradually become inevitable, but the Han army was large in number and defended it, so that the Qin army was helpless for the time being.
The sun was gradually turning west, and the battlefield was in shambles, with corpses everywhere, streams of blood, broken knives, guns, and arrows everywhere, and crows hovering overhead, chirping, adding a bit of desolation and tragedy to this tragic battlefield
The rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded in the east, and the fiercest attack of the Jin people since the beginning of the war came.
And what greeted them was the Qin army formation that was already in full battle and more than 8,000 Qin army iron cavalry
The sound of horses' hooves that shook the earth covered out all other sounds, and the rows of Jin Guojing horses finally appeared in the field of vision, like an unstoppable torrent, without turning back, rushing towards the Qin army's military formation with a decisive momentum, and the Jurchen, Khitan Erlang's shouts full of wild xing soared into the sky.
The weapons used to deal with the cavalry are always the same cavalry, and the war horses began to run, accelerated, and rushed forward without showing weakness in the face of the Jurchen elite cavalry.
A rain of arrows rose in the Qin army's formation, darkening the sun like a dark cloud, and three rounds of rapid fire, with the maximum range, was enough to cover the front of the Jurchen elite cavalry.
The Jurchen knights screamed so badly that they were shot into hedgehogs, but the riders behind did not stop for a moment, stepping on the corpses of men and horses, and galloping into the place of death drawn by the rain of arrows......
The cloud-like cavalry duel was tragic and short-lived, and the swarming Qin cavalry and the Jurchen elite cavalry with a decisive heart collided with brilliant sparks at this moment.
Under the rain of arrows, the knights drew their long knives, brandished them and looked at the galloping opponents, their heads were thrown high, and the hot blood came from the surface, but they didn't have time to wipe it, and the warriors who were covered in blood kept swinging their blades at the opponents one after another, killing or being killed, and life and death were only decided in an instant.
The war horses under the crotch, running like flying, blood, wailing, deaf, blind, in their eyes, there is only a living opponent, there is no longer anything else, the beast xing is surging in their hearts, and the final victory is often the heaviest one of the beast xing.
The big man with carved feathers all over his body, roared wildly, cut down the figures in front of him, cut down the horse, and rushed towards Mu Huali, Mu Huali's face was full of hideousness, dragging the already bright red wind knife in his hand, the knife light flickered, a puff of blood flew out, and the knight on the horse shook and fell under the horse.
The big man who exuded the aura of a beast from top to bottom had already arrived, and the wide scimitar in his hand was waving, slashing horizontally, and cutting towards Mu Huali's waist.
Mu Huali's eyes didn't blink, and he had already turned sideways in an instant, and when the other party was shocked, the wind knife in his hand was slashed head, and at the moment of life and death, the big man roared angrily, wanting to dodge, but it was too late, and the wind knife was split sideways, from the side of his neck, to the shoulder gis, and stuck on the bone.
When the blood sprayed, the two horses staggered past, Mu Huali instantly sat up straight, pulled out another wind knife from the saddle, and faced the next opponent, but the big man fell under the horse, and almost instantly, he was trampled into meat sauce by the chaotic horses' hooves.
Jerodun slave, die
More and more Jurchen cavalry killed through the Qin cavalry formation, with bright red eyes that had been stabbed with blood, and crashed straight into the Qin army's right wing infantry formation......
"Kill the past, kill the past"
"Pikeman, carry the gun."
The dense spears spread the front of the Qin army into a hedgehog.
The Jurchen cavalry collided almost in a few breaths, and a golden soldier was pierced by a spear, and immediately the knight screamed and fell out, but the golden soldier used his last strength to throw out the scimitar in his hand and smashed it on the face of a pikeman, and immediately his face was covered with blood and fell to the ground.
The horse fell with a wail, and the gunman who hit him fell backwards because he was unsteady on his feet.
Such a situation is staged everywhere, and the figures of being knocked away by galloping war horses abound.
The surviving Jin cavalry gathered and poured into the Qin army formation from several gaps, and immediately there was a rain of blood, almost unstoppable rushing forward.
Jurchen elite cavalry, the world's strongest army, at this moment, finally showed their terrifying combat power, four thousand elite cavalry, killing through the eight thousand Qin army cavalry army formation, the edge has not decreased, and the right wing of the Qin army, which is waiting for the battle, rushed to shake and fall
At this moment, Zhao Shi, who was standing on a high place and looking at the overall situation, was shocked
The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, although the Jin country is declining, but this last glory is still terrifying, so that Zhao Shi's heart, just a little bit of the intention of underestimating the enemy, immediately disappeared a clean ......!.
