Chapter 1004: Desperate Counterattack (I)
The raging fire, fueled by diesel fuel and strong winds, burned the entire city of Zhuozhou, and it could destroy everything that came in front of it, dead or alive. The ensuing smoke was like a black dragon raging in the streets and alleys of the city, and the skyrocketing fire also rendered this piece of sky completely red, even if it was dozens of miles away, you could clearly feel the huge destructive power caused by this fire.
If someone could leap into the air like a bird at this time, they would surely be able to witness the terrifying destructive power of the flames that had never been seen before...... No, in fact, there are really hundreds of pairs of eyes in Zhuozhou City today, looking condescendingly at the scene of the burning city destroying everything, and all of this is caused by their own hands.
Even Sun Tu never thought that this air raid and arson tactics would achieve such an amazing effect, only a little more than an hour, the entire city has been engulfed in flames, no matter how brave and ferocious those golden soldiers were before, but in the face of the rolling heat wave and flames that poured up from all directions, they still had no way to resist like ordinary people, most of them could only retreat again and again, and finally were forced into a dead end, screaming and being swallowed by the flames.
Some of the golden soldiers ran into a certain building, and then died in the ruins of the building as the fire completely destroyed the building. Even if there were some people with the best skills and courage who fought hard, they were all anxious, and the injuries were not light, and even if they were gathered in one place, the situation was still not optimistic, like headless flies scurrying around the city, and then they were forced into a dead end by the fire.
The screams of tens of thousands of golden soldiers came and went, one after another, almost covering up the sound of the wind and the crackling sound of the fire burning around, and flew away in all directions under the blowing of the wind, and also came to the sky, so that many Song soldiers who were still throwing diesel crockpots and torches before were trembling and frightened.
Even though the two sides had long been hostile, the sight of these enemies continuing to die in such a miserable way still shook the hearts of the soldiers, and many even forgot to drop the last few cans of diesel fuel in the basket. However, this is enough, not only to make the city of Zhuozhou about to be completely destroyed, but also to allow all the hot air balloons to climb higher to avoid being harmed by the constantly rising fires and heat waves.
And under the reflection of this firelight, Zhuozhou City is now more transparent than in the daytime, so even if Sun Tu is at a height of dozens of zhang, he can still clearly see that there are still a few remnants of the Jin Army stumbling towards the gates after killing the bloody road from the flames, although the number is not much, but it is enough to attract his attention.
It's a pity that he took people in mid-air, and he couldn't land in a short time, and it was impossible to give orders to let the soldiers and horses on the periphery surround and intercept him, so he could only hope that the layers of ambush soldiers laid before could perform well at this time, and not let himself down. Because Sun Tu knew very well how much hidden danger would be left behind by letting the tiger return to the mountain, even if the Jin army had suffered heavy casualties in this battle, as long as they were allowed to escape, it was possible to make a comeback, after all, as far as he knew, the Jin army that entered Zhuozhou this time had an absolute leader of the Jin country like Agu Wushu.
Finally, a group of five or six hundred golden soldiers closest to the west gate rushed to the door first, and it was not complete

Closed in front of the gates, which were burned down by fire. These golden soldiers had already broken their courage at this time, and without too much hesitation, they had already rushed straight to the city gate, just thinking about escaping from this purgatory-like place as soon as possible and saving their lives.
But just when some people were galloping at full speed and were about to rush through the city gate hole in front of them, there was a familiar sound outside that made their heartbeat stop suddenly and the blood instantly coagulated, which was the sound of arrows flying through the air.
When the fire in the city burned in such an unscrupulous state, and the smoke and flames of the heat wave continued to wash out, it was already mentally prepared, and the nearly 10,000 soldiers under the Song River who were guarding the West Gate were all shaken and fearful—was the thing that his own general took out out of nowhere so terrible? How domineering and killing is it to use this trick to trap a big city and tens of thousands of enemies here with less than a thousand people......
It wasn't until there was a sudden shouting in the city, and a chaotic sound of running footsteps came from far and near, that all the soldiers recovered from this shock, and with the voices of Song Jiang and other generals, thousands of bows and crossbows were all full, aiming at the city gate that usually looked quite wide.
However, when the thousands of sharp arrows roared into the city gate, like flying locusts swept towards the Jin army that was rushing out, this city gate hole was extremely cramped and narrow. Because those arrows filled almost the entire passage, sealing all their dodging angles and possibilities, almost every arrow could penetrate the enemy's body, shooting the already wounded Jin soldiers on the spot like slaughtering pigs and dogs, and no one was spared, even some people in the rear wanted to turn around and escape, and were also nailed to death in the corridor by more arrows that followed.
It's just that in a short time of tea, under the flying rain like pear blossoms, these five or six hundred golden soldiers who thought they could escape all became bloody hedgehogs, and none of them survived. On the Song Jun's side, there was not even a single injured person.
This kind of big victory is unimaginable for all the soldiers below Song Jiang in the past, what kind of battle is this, it is clearly a one-sided slaughter, they are slaughtering a group of ordinary people who have completely lost the power to resist. This made them feel excited, but they also felt a little strange in their hearts, is this the legendary terrible Jurchen Jin soldier who killed the Liao people without the slightest power to fight back? It turns out that under their own hands, they are also so vulnerable......
The same scene also happened at the South Gate, the North Gate! The will to survive and the usual bravery and mobility really made several remnants of the golden soldiers rush out of the encirclement of the fire, and then run towards the city gate by all means. But as a result, outside the city gates, there were already Song troops waiting for them, and they were greeted not by fresh air, but by a dense rain of arrows, and there was not even a word of superfluous nonsense.
In the past hundred years, the Song army has been able to fight the Liao people undefeated in the face of a shortage of horses and poor combat strength, relying on clever city defense battles and powerful bows and crossbows. And for this battle, Sun Tu even mobilized the bows and crossbows of hundreds of thousands of troops, which made the soldiers
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
They can completely let go of their hands and shoot, without any worries and savings, and the effect of this is also extremely obvious, the three city gates are guarded by the Song army steadily, not to mention the Jin soldiers, I am afraid that even a mosquito does not want to easily fly out of the city from this rain of arrows.
The city gate was sealed, but the fire was burning bigger and bigger, which was really at the end of the road for the remaining Jin soldiers in the city, and there was only one dead end.
Even if they were ten miles apart, the dense screams could be heard by Yue Fei and other soldiers outside the east gate, but their minds did not dare to relax at all, and they still stared at the half-open city gate, looking at the deep corridor, waiting for the next wave of enemies to rush out.
Because just now, a group of more than 100 golden soldiers suddenly rushed out, but after a rain of arrows, most of them were killed and wounded, and only a few retreated into the city, and then there was no other movement except for a shouting from inside. Now, the city gates were even quieter, as if the enemy had given up and had left the place to find another place to escape.
But Yue Fei didn't think that the Jin people would give up this only escape route at this time, because only when they checked outside the city, they could know that the city had been completely engulfed in flames.
What's more, the number of enemies who rushed out just now is also very problematic, just those screams from other directions, you can know that there are hundreds or thousands of golden soldiers in other gates, how can there be only a hundred or so people on your side?
The only explanation was that the golden soldiers here were more cautious than elsewhere, and they rushed straight out of the city without a single thought. Because of this, there were fewer of them, and they were able to retreat in the dense rain of arrows without blocking the entire city gate. Thinking like this, Yue Fei's heart suddenly lifted, he knew that next, it was the time to test the combat strength and determination of his side, the next wave of the enemy's momentum would inevitably be extremely strong, and it would inevitably be launched in a way that surprised everyone.
In the city, the faces of all the Jin people were solemn to the extreme, and Ah Guda had already raised his knife in his hand, and made the final mobilization in a low voice: "We Jurchen warriors, although today we fell into the trap of the Song people, we suffered heavy casualties. But we will never succumb to such a conspiracy, let alone fall for it. We will fight out, as long as we are allowed to escape from this city, the outer world is still our battlefield, and we will surely achieve the final victory. Warriors, come with me and fight your way out of the city! After saying that, the knife slashed down fiercely, and the emperor of the Jin Kingdom had turned around suddenly, with a horizontal knife in his chest, like a fierce tiger, roaring, and rushing forward in the first place.
He is Wanyan Aguta, a great hero who led the entire Jurchen tribe to rise from ignorance and humiliation, he will never accept the result of being trapped and burned to death in such a suffocation, even if he dies, he will die in the front line of rushing to the enemy!
The more than 1,000 golden soldiers around him were also inspired by his words at this moment, and they immediately roared out, and then dozens of soldiers with huge beams in their hands were the first to arrive, and rushed into the city gate cave first, heading towards the outside of the city......
Jin Guo, the life and death of the Jurchen are in this battle!
