Chapter 384: Attack from three sides

The wind howled, and the banner above the city was blown as a hunt.

It seems that under the influence of the Huaxia Army, the Yuan Dynasty also made military flags for its own army.

With the blue as the base, it symbolizes the endless grassland in the north of the desert, and it is also their hometown. On it, a blue wolf is depicted.

The blue wolf hunched over, staring at the front with both eyes, its two forefeet slightly raised, and its mouth open, so that people could see the teeth, sharp and deadly, looking ready to attack anytime and anywhere. This symbolizes their determination to never give up, and no matter what danger they encounter, they will fight to the end like wolves.

Even if the target they are fighting is the Huaxia Army.

From the Yuan Dynasty to the fourteenth year of the Yuan Dynasty, the Chinese calendar was 1499.

After calculating the time, Boyan found that he had been here for two years, and when he counted the time when he led the army to the expedition before, three years had passed.

And three years ago, he was still in Dadu at that time, and it was in the early morning when the sun was warm and the breeze was blowing, he accepted Ali Buge's appointment in front of all the ministers and began the operation to annihilate the Song Dynasty. And he did not disappoint Ali Buge, it only took one year to defeat the Song Dynasty army, and successfully invaded Lin'an, capturing all the ministers of Lin'an, and the Song Dynasty, which had been in a stalemate with them for decades, collapsed like this.

The collapse made everyone feel like a dream.

At this time, Xiao Feng, who was far away in Chang'an, made a decision, and this decision also made Boyan uneasy to this day.

"If it weren't for this Xiao Feng, if there wasn't for this Huaxia Army, maybe we wouldn't be like this. We won't be trapped here either, and there will be no escape anywhere. Thinking of all this, Boyan was even more annoyed.

Regarding this matter, he did not fail to remind Brother Ali Buge to be wary of the threat from the Huaxia Army.

However, the ministers of the court and the central government all ignored the dormant Huaxia army, believing that its strength was not enough to confront the Yuan Dynasty, even in the past wars, the Huaxia army had foiled their plans several times, and completely ignored it, and instead devoted all their energy to the preparation for the destruction of the Song Dynasty, and even imagined that after the annexation of the Song Dynasty, they could turn to solve the Huaxia army and complete the real unification of the world.

The plan, as Ali Buge predicted, soon collapsed and was completely vulnerable.

But there were also variables in the plan, and the Huaxia Army, which was suddenly inserted, completely changed all this, not only made them experience the feeling of failure, but also trapped them here completely.

Boyan had also tried hard to repel the siege of the other party, but every counterattack only summoned a tighter blockade, and since the defeat of the naval army, the entire Yangtze River has also been completely blocked, and they have completely lost aid from the north. On the other hand, in the land they once occupied, there were also many rebels in the villages, and these rebels formed small groups with each other, relying on the villages in the countryside, and often attacked the soldiers they sent.

Although these attacks were piecemeal, they could only kill and injure a few dozen people alive at a time.

However, in the case of accumulation, the losses caused by these rebels are also objective, and at least one-third of the attrition under the command of Boyan was done by these rebels.

In desperation, Boyan had no choice but to let his soldiers stay in the city, and they were not allowed to leave the city unless it was a last resort.

This means that they have completely lost their passivity, and can only huddle in the city, waiting for the Yuan army from the north.

But the White Lotus Sect's uprising a month ago interrupted all this, making them understand that only by relying on their own strength can they break free from all this.

"Is it really hopeless this time?"

Boyan's heart began to churn, and he was also uneasy about the upcoming scene.

............

Zhonghua Gate Fort.

In fact, this is a battle line, which uses trenches and various fortresses to connect Shuixi Gate, Zhonghua Gate, and Guanghua Gate to form a battle line that is dozens of miles long, and the inside and outside are also divided into three layers, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people to fight here.

In order to ensure that it could resist the attack of the Huaxia army, the fortresses of the entire front were built of hard mountain stones, as thick as one zhang of stones, enough to ensure that the personnel and artillery inside would not be destroyed.

And its mission is to resist the attack of the Huaxia army and prevent the other party from attacking the city.

After the Huaxia army arrived here, they launched dozens of battles here, but unfortunately each time they returned with a feather. Under Boyan's supervision, this fortress was built too tightly, and if it was geographically advantageous, it could be done with one as ten, but it would be too difficult to capture it with manpower.

Therefore, the Huaxia army changed its angle, only surrounding it with superior forces, and turned to sneak attacks, often sending some squads to attack in the dark of night.

Although each attack was a failure, it also caused some damage to the people in the fortress.

The army in the fortress also understood all this, and they also organized an army to break through the blockade of the Huaxia army, but unfortunately failed every time.

They had long since lost illusions of fighting back, as one of the generals said.

"It's just a grave, we're just waiting to die. ”

At this point, the people in the fortress quite understood that as long as the Huaxia army continued to invest enough troops, it would be enough to break through the fortress they were guarding, and the reason why they did not act for a long time was just because they were afraid of too many casualties.

As the most elite army in the world, every soldier in the Huaxia Army is a precious existence, and will never be sacrificed so easily.

Artillery rang out in the distance, and they knew that a new round of attack had begun, just as before, except that the shelling seemed to be particularly fierce today.

So, they launched a counterattack, no matter what means they used, in short, to push the opponent back, so that the opponent would not break through the defense line and attack the city. If you attack the city, it will be too late.

Stiffly raise the gun, aim, pull the trigger, then fire, repeat the action in their hands, and they just don't stop for a moment, no matter what the target in front of them is.

Those Huayi distinctions, monarchs and ministers, are still too difficult for them to understand, and the only thing they understand is to live.

With a "boom", the fortress was missing, and the comrades who had fought with them fell, and the rest of the people hurriedly made up for it without saying a word.

Everything, like a steam engine that runs in harmony with each other, keeps running until the gears wear out, the pressure skyrockets, and then it comes to a complete collapse.

............

Shogunate Mountain.

Compared to the Shuiximen Fortress, it seems to be much more fierce here, and there are no soldiers all over the mountains, but instead artillery is bombarding each other.

On the Yangtze River, thirty Nujiao-class battleships rushed towards the shore with guns on their heads. Behind him were seven Canglong-class, which also raised the artillery, aiming at the fort built on the mountain, it was a fierce bombardment, the rocks collapsed, the smoke and dust rolled up, and all the places that hit were completely destroyed, and the batteries that were resisting had stopped running at this moment, and there was no movement.

Unlike Shuiximen, because of its proximity to the Yangtze River, it did not build trenches, but instead built a large number of forts, hoping that these forts would prevent the Huaxia army from landing on the shore.

And the artillery used in those batteries was naturally removed from the battleships in the navy.

The incorporated Song Dynasty naval army could not resist the might of the Yangtze River Naval Division of the Huaxia Army at all, and had to retreat to Xuanwu Lake to ensure its safety. And the artillery on them was naturally useless, so it was dismantled and used on these batteries, which can be regarded as respecting their ability.

It's just that under the shelling of the Yangtze River Naval Army, these batteries couldn't hold out for long, and they were destroyed by targeting one by one.

Whether it is the range and power, they are still too different from the four-inch caliber artillery equipped by the Yangtze River Naval Army, and they are completely generational, so they are naturally unable to resist the attack.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the thirty Nujiao-class battleships finally approached the shore, and put down the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time, although the troops on the shore wanted to resist, but they could hardly resist the attack of the guns on the Nujiao-class battleships, and they were all beaten and couldn't raise their heads, let alone fight with their opponents.

As a result, the Huaxia Army, which was the first to rush out, successfully established a position on the shore.

These carefully selected soldiers were quite good, they took out the prepared captives quite neatly, and knocked out all the nearby firepower points, and the follow-up troops also followed behind them, stepping on the shore together, constantly expanding their occupation area, and when the battle line was stabilized, an army rushed straight towards Xuanwu Lake, to burn all the warships anchored in Xuanwu Lake.

These warships anchored in Xuanwu Lake were important instruments for the Yuan army to flee, and if they were destroyed, it would be equivalent to completely cutting off the possibility of the Yuan army escaping.

The other army spared the Shogunate Mountain and attacked from the lower pass towards the center of Jiankang Castle.

Compared to other places, because of its proximity to the Yangtze River, the terrain is quite flat, and there are no steep mountains in other places. And in other places, because of the positions built by Boyan, they are like feints, and if they are to be captured, they will definitely have to pay a considerable price.

It is precisely because of this that Zhou Chengfang concentrated all his strength to break through this point.

And as it stands, the program can be described as quite successful.

In the face of the swarming army, although the defenders here wanted to resist, their troops were too small to resist the attack of the Huaxia army after all.

The rest of the places were in a fierce battle, and there were not many troops left in Boyan's hands, and there were no reinforcements to support them at all, so they could only fight everything so that they could hold this front.

It's a pity that in the face of the swarming soldiers, they were still helpless after all, and they could only be broken through the front by the Huaxia army.

............

Horses.

Compared to the other two places, it is much steeper, and to the south is the towering Purple Mountain.

With the topography of the Purple Mountain, few people would choose to attack from here, but Boyan still built a defense line here for prudent reasons, and this defense line has finally served its corresponding purpose today.

Today is a rare sunny and sunny day, and the warm sunshine is sprinkled in the jungle, which makes people feel very comfortable.

However, at the foot of the mountain, thousands of people can be seen running along the mountain road, heading into the distance.

And its leaders are none other than Gao Gao and Duan Ling, who are leading the elite under their command at this moment, planning to bypass the Purple Mountain and give the Yuan army a look directly from behind.

They easily spared the strongholds set up by Boyan, after all, they were all from this place, and they were much more familiar with the situation here than those Yuan troops.

And at noon, they had already arrived at the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, and they could already see the towering city wall in the distance, all the actions were strictly according to the plan, and they had always hidden their actions to ensure that they would not be discovered by the other party, and the dense jungle was enough to hide everyone's figures, and would not be discovered by the other party.

When they finally came to the head of the city, they stopped, and at the appointed time they would attack at noon.

There was silence all around, there was no movement, only occasionally, the sound of artillery fire could be heard from afar, and the soldiers above the city looked a little sparse, and they should have been transferred to defend other lines.

If so, it's the best time to do so.

Therefore, Gao Gao and Duan Ling quickly asked their soldiers to set up cannons, aiming at the soldiers above the city, and they themselves took their soldiers to lurk near the city gate, as long as the cannon fire rang off and blasted open the city gate, they would quickly pounce in, destroy the opponent's living force, and attack the city.

"Boom!"

The sudden sound of cannon fire really made these soldiers a little panicked.

They didn't expect that the place where they were would also be attacked by the Huaxia army, and before they could react, the artillery above the city was shrouded in flames and turned into scrap metal. Then, with the sound of heavy cannonballs, the once fortified city wall also collapsed entirely, turning into a pile of debris.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gao Gao and Duan Ling immediately rose up and rushed into the city with one arrow, and with a fierce wave of the long knife in their hands, they cut down the entire soldiers who rushed in.

The rest of the soldiers followed them and poured into the city, completely drowning what little force they had left, and there was no more movement.

After dealing with these enemies, the two also rushed towards the city with their men, intending to take advantage of this opportunity to completely drive out the remaining Yuan army and recapture the place that once belonged to them.
