Chapter 815: Sound, Sound, Slowness (3)
At the beginning of February, when the ninth day of the month was alternated, Linzhou.
The city floated in the chaotic firelight.
In the direction of the city wall, the desperate onslaught of the Magic Train has begun. The sound of the boulder shaking the long wall could be heard clearly across the small half of the city.
In the southwest, the resistance of Shen Wenjin's troops after entering the city caused a certain amount of movement, and they lit flames and burned the houses in the city. At the northeast city gate, a group of soldiers who had not expected to reduce gold launched a raid to seize the city gate, causing some casualties to the nearby Huaxia army soldiers.
The news came quickly, and Guan Sheng listened as he walked quickly between the tents in the camp, surrounded by soldiers running by. When he saw the courtyard in front of him, he also saw Xu Chunyi coming over from the other side.
Except for Yan Qing and the others following behind Xu Chunyi, Huaxia Jun did not bring him any torture instruments that restricted his movements, so on the surface, Xu Chunyi's face was only slightly gloomy, and he stopped and looked at Guan Sheng, who was walking quickly. Guan Sheng's eyes were serious, and there was majesty in his eyes, he walked up to him and patted the dust on his shoulder.
"General Xu, let's come along."
After speaking, Guan Sheng led Xu Chunyi and several people behind him into the courtyard next to him.
The lights were lit in the courtyard room, and when Guan Sheng and the others came in, many of the defending generals under Xu Chunyi's command had already gathered here, Guan Sheng walked to the front and pressed the table with both hands: "Everyone sit." ”
Everyone looked at Xu Chunyi and sat down one after another, Guan Sheng spread his hand, motioned for Xu Chunyi to sit beside him, and then began to speak.
"Time is of the essence, I'll make a long story short. Someone defected and voted for the golden dog, and we found out that General Xu had already done a cleanup. Originally, he wanted to plan and lead a group of golden dogs in to kill them, but Shuliesu was very smart and sent in by the Han army. Either way, what you hear now is the desperate sound of Jori. ”
Guan Sheng's eyes were majestic, and he paused slightly: "In the past few days, the Huaxia Army has been fighting side by side with everyone, and there are some things that can be explained." The Jurchen 30,000 elites, the reinforcements are endless, and they can't hold on to Linzhou. And looking at the current situation, we don't know how many people are still in this city. If you want to win quickly, we want to. ”
"No matter how powerful the opponent is, there will be flaws when we shoot, and we can only be single. The assault on the speed of the spell will soon begin. ”
The atmosphere in the room changed suddenly. Seeing Xu Chunyi's face before, seeing that the person who followed Xu Chunyi was not the confidant of the past, everyone had a lot of speculation in their hearts, and when Guan Sheng said that he didn't know how many "there are no eggs" in the army, the meaning of these words made people even more muttered, but what everyone never thought was that this Huaxia army, at most, more than 10,000 Huaxia troops, on the third day of defending the city, was going to counterattack and lead more than 30,000 Jurchen elite columns.
Such a tactic is so stupid, but in all fairness, as long as there is a reasonable person, it is not difficult to detect the dead knot of Linzhou at this time.
More than 30,000 Jurchen elites, leading more than 30,000 traitor troops, Linzhou for a period of time, of course, is also possible, but Zong Han's main force is not far to the north, if Shulie can't attack Linzhou, the remaining more than 200,000 female Allah will stand by and watch?
And after the siege began, the option of retreat was actually long gone. After Tian Shi's death, the situation in Jindi was critical, the possibility of reinforcements coming was almost zero, and defending the city without help on the left and right was a dead end.
If you think about these things clearly, how heroic the choice is now.
No one spoke. Guan Sheng also was silent for a moment: "The country is ruined." He said, "In the future, which way everyone goes, Guan thinks that they can figure it out, but these days Huaxia Army gets along with you and communicates with each other every day, what your brothers think, everyone should also see clearly, no one wants to be a dog!" ”
"I'm going to play soon, I don't know what it's like to play today, and if I can come back. I won't talk about the big reason. His hand patted Xu Chunyi's shoulder and glanced at him, "But there are still people in the city, although there are not many, but I hope to take this opportunity to take them to escape south, which can be regarded as fulfilling the duty of a soldier." As for you...... Today's killing column is fast enough to keep up."
There was a sharp flash in his eyes: "I will be the brother of the Huaxia Army in the coming day, and on behalf of all the Huaxia soldiers, I welcome everyone." ”
After saying this, Guan Sheng withdrew the hand that was on Xu Chun's shoulder, turned around and walked outside. At this time, someone in the room stood up, it was a fierce general who was originally subordinate to Xu Chun's subordinates, named Shi Guangen, and his face was also unkind: "Who is this looking down on!" ”
Guan Sheng turned his head to look at him. Shi Guangen said: "I can't figure out what I think, I don't know and I think you're talking to a group of bad people!" But kill a trick quickly, Lao Tzu's men are ready, how to fight, your surname Guan speaks! ”
Guan Sheng nodded and clenched his fists. Many people in the room have already seen the door at this time In fact, this kind of thing is a sensitive topic at the moment, Tian Shi has just died, although Xu Chunyi is the person in charge of the army, he can only connect with some henchmen in private, otherwise there will be a big movement, and there will be a person who is unwilling to surrender, and this matter will reach the ears of the Huaxia army.
It is also because of this that for Xu Chunyi's change, everyone in the room was only guessing before, and at this time, the speculation landed in the hearts of some people, and some people whispered, and there was some understanding in the words: "Xu ...... The surname Xu is a dog......" The others nodded suddenly. Someone stood up again and arched his hand: "General Guan, Lin is willing to join the Huaxia Army, don't leave behind my hundreds of brothers." ”
If this happened at other times, it would not be surprising that the entire army would have invested money, but now that the Huaxia army is pressing the formation, several mobilization meetings and side by side battles in the past few days have achieved good results, which has aroused the blood in everyone's chest. Moreover, Xu Chunyi's previous black-box operation and defeat were completely uncoupled, and his control of the army at this time was finally completely decoupled.
Guan Sheng didn't say much, left the staff behind, and then strode out. The light of the battle on the city wall shone through, he took the broadsword, stepped on the warhorse, turned his head to look at the sky, and then rode forward with the people around him.
Above the city, the night was still as deep as black ink.
……
Outside the city, tens of thousands of troops gathered into the most magnificent ocean in the night before dawn, the shouts of tens of thousands of people, the charge of the Jurchens and Han people, the arrows flying through the sky, the boulders with flames, and the repeated shelling of the city walls, burned into boiling flames, and the rolling wood stones were carried by the soldiers and thrown down the walls, and the poured fire oil was ignited, flowing into a seeping fire curtain.
The most elite troops under the command of Shulie Su had already begun to ascend the city, and in the southwest of the city, Shen Wenjin's descendants launched a siege to save the commander.
Before this, the elite troops who entered the city had been greatly killed, and some soldiers who had "changed guards" at the head of the city gathered together in a sudden killing, and then were forced to jump or be beheaded off the city wall, and died a tragic death. In the city, there were shelling and explosions coming constantly.
In the fierce attack that has been launched outside the city, in the city of Linzhou, there are also teams of living forces gathered one after another, including the Huaxia army and the original Xu Chunyi's troops. In such a world, although the country has fallen, as Guan Sheng said, "the country is ruined and the family is ruined", but being able to follow the Huaxia Army to do such a heroic event still has considerable weight for many people who have been depressed for half their lives.
Moreover, being able to join the Huaxia Army in the future is also a very tempting thing. Now that the King of Jin has gone, there is no place for the Han people to stand anywhere in the Central Plains, if they can really escape after the war this time, the achievements of the Huaxia Army will definitely shock the world, and it will be a destination worth boasting about for anyone.
There is no better, more human-like way.
The wind was fierce, Shi Guangen gathered the soldiers and shouted in front of everyone:
“…… Lao Tzu has long said that people die and birds rise to the sky, and they will not die for thousands of years...... Today, join the Huaxia Army, and there will be green smoke on the graves of your ancestors for eight lifetimes."
Yesterday's battle was fierce, and everyone had not rested for a long time, and they were tired, but when they heard the madness in these words, goosebumps welled up on the bodies of some soldiers, and the blood in their hearts was tumbling......
More people are gathering.
……
On the northern wall, the white-hot fighting is spreading.
The flying stray arrow bounced off the armor, and Xu Ning stabbed the short spear in his hand into the chest and abdomen of a Jurchen soldier, and in the soldier's roar, Xu Ning plunged the second short gun into the opponent's throat, took advantage of the momentum to pull out the first one, and pierced the thigh of a Jurchen soldier next to him.
The Jurchen soldier was chasing and killing a Chinese soldier who was bloodied in the shoulder, when he was shot in the thigh and slashed at him, Xu Ning's two guns stabbed and retracted, stabbing the other party to the ground.
"Go"
He pounced on his wounded men, and the Jurchens rushed in front of him, slashing him in the back, the steel knife splitting through the armor, but not deep into the flesh. Xu Ning's body staggered forward two steps, grabbed a shield, turned around and crashed into the other party.
He was strong in martial arts, and when he hit it, there was a bang, and the Jurchen soldier and the other Jurchen who rushed from behind couldn't dodge, and they were all knocked into a rolling gourd. More Jurchens came up in front, and soldiers of the Huaxia Army came in formation, and the two sides rushed to kill each other at the head of the city.
The opening at the head of the city was opened, and then it was taken back by Xu Ning and his men, and then another section was boarded. The elite soldiers under the command of Shu Liesu did not have too much consumption yesterday, and their combat effectiveness was extraordinary, so after two rounds, the corpses and blood at the head of the city spread, Xu Ning was red-eyed, and he was also stabbed several times, and he led his subordinates to fight and retreat.
After Xu Ning and the others gradually retreated from the city, they announced the loss of this section of the city wall.
The Jurchen soldiers broke through this section of the city wall and slaughtered the north gate of Linzhou, which was still closed, and soon the sound of explosions in the streets and alleys was loud. During Xu Ning's desperate resistance, the sappers had already planted gunpowder, sprinkled fire oil, and even piled up wood on the way to the city gate. At this point, the road was blocked by raging fires.
Xu Ning put the double guns used in close combat, carried the hook and sickle golden gun on his back, and led the soldiers to carry out a new round of charging and killing.
There was chaos in the streets.
Near the southwest city gate, "Thunderbolt Fire" Qin Ming stepped on the city with a mace in one hand and Shen Wenjin in the other.
"Light the fire for me! Let them see better! ”
Outside the siege of the city was nearly 10,000 people under the command of Shen Wenjin, but with the elite 3,000 people of this team being killed or surrendered in the city, the siege battle was carried out weakly and without any threat at all.
After all, at the beginning, the Huaxia army was preparing to welcome the elite of the Jurchens here, and later although Shen Wenjin and his soldiers resisted, these Huaxia soldiers still quickly resolved the battle and pulled their strength to the city.
The torch was blazing, Qin Ming dragged Shen Wenjin to the gatehouse, Shen Wenjin's hands and feet were tied, his face was already pale, and his whole body trembled: "I surrender, I surrender, brother of the Huaxia Army!" I give up! Grandfather! I surrender, I surrender for you, I fight the Jurchens for you."
He screamed in his mouth, but Qin Ming just sneered, this is naturally something that can't be done, after surrendering to the Jurchens, whether by Shen Wenjin's side or in the military array outside, there are Jurchen generals who suppress the formation, as soon as Shen Wenjin is captured, the command of the army has basically been relieved.
"You're screaming here!"
Picking up a knot and putting it around Shen Wenjin's neck, Qin Ming kicked him to the side of the female wall, then he glanced outside the city, turned around and walked towards the city.
Most of the cavalry of this Huaxia army has been assembled in the streets under the leadership of Qin Ming. Six hundred horsemen, ready to rush out of the city and slaughter at any time.
Qin Ming stepped onto the war horse, and on the heavy mace, the traces of blood had not yet been dried by the night wind.
At the head of the city, Shen Wenjin, who was wearing a noose around his neck, was screaming hysterically under the coercion of two Huaxia soldiers. The Jurchens in the siege army forced the soldiers to keep moving forward, and there were Jurchen marksmen hiding among the soldiers, approaching the city wall, and began to fire arrows at Shen Wenjin.
After all, it was windy at night, and the two Huaxia soldiers at the head of the city paid attention to the danger around Shen Wenjin, and shot a few arrows in a row, either flying or shooting on the shield, and before they could shoot again, the city gate in front of them opened.
"Run away" Shen Wenjin's shout was extremely clear even in this noise.
……
At the head of the city in the north, the city walls fell one after another, but under the deliberate destruction of the Huaxia army, the poured fire oil was burning brightly, although some of the passages on the city wall were opened, and the area behind the city was still chaotic and deadlocked.
Shuresu looked at the situation on the battlefield with serious eyes, and the surging soldiers from several places attached to the city, and at the beginning of the city, a large number of soldiers had entered the city, and were gaining a foothold in the city, preparing to seize the north gate. The Huaxia army is still resisting, but a battle has reached this level, so to speak, the city has been broken.
He once taught the quality of the Huaxia army in Xiaocanghe, for this army, even if it is a hard street battle, I am afraid it can resist for a long time, but the advantage of his side has been great, and then, the Huaxia army that was divided and scattered lost its unified command, whether it is stubborn resistance or escape, it will be swallowed by itself one by one.
Due to the different direction of the wind, the hot air balloon did not rise again, but Hai Dongqing, who was flying in the sky, brought ominous news soon after. The cavalry of the southwest city gate was killed, and Shen Wenjin's army had formed a large-scale rout.
"Herald Alibai." Shulie quickly issued a military order, "He has 5,000 men, if you let the black flag escape from the southwest, let him raise his head to meet him!" ”
The herald quickly left, and at this time, a moment had passed, and there were no fireworks rising into the sky and bursting into the sky. The three city gates in the northeast and northwest of Linzhou opened at this time, and the trumpets of the charge sounded from different directions, and the black torrent rushed towards the flanks of the Jurchens.
The battlefield of tens of thousands of people is only on the side of Shuliesu at this time, some people are outside the city, some people are inside the city, some people are fighting on the city walls, some people are routing, and some people are preventing the rout. At the moment when the city gate was opened, the crowd broke into the crowd, and the Huaxia army and the Xu army that followed took advantage of the same order.
In the southwest direction, Qin Ming led six hundred cavalry, driving the defeated army under Shen Wenjin's command and circling to the main formation of Shuliesu.
Outside the city gate in the northwest, a regiment of 1,500 people is plowing a bloody road in the siege team, and the leader of the team is named Nie Shan, who is one of the old men who followed Ning Yi's side, he used to be a small leader on Liangshan, killing people like hemp, and later experienced the training camp of Zhujiazhuang, and he was mentioned by Lu Hongti in martial arts, and he took the road of repentance and asceticism.
Over the years, there have been fewer and fewer ascetics in the first group of ascetics in the Chinese army, but as long as they are still alive, their fighting style is intimidatingly fierce. Nie Shan, who is nearly fifty years old, is burly, with many scars on his face, and a nine-ring broadsword in his hand is heavy and strong, and under his command, the hundreds of stormtroopers in front of him are also shaved heads, and the long knives, iron spears, and heavy hammers in their hands can easily crack everyone's bones.
The siege was half Han and half Jurchen, and in less than a moment, a large number of soldiers were chased and fled, and behind these chasing heads, corpses and blood paved a long road.
Hu Yanzhuo and Li Jiakai each led 1,000 people to kill from the east and northeast, and at the same time, an army of nearly 10,000 people under the leadership of Shi Guangen and others fought out of the city gate from different roads, and their goals were all the same speed.
The Jurchen general Suo Tuohu is the most relied on cronies under the command of Shulie Su, he led more than 4,000 elites to break the city first, and entered Linzhou City, and gained a firm foothold under the continuous attack of Xu Ning and others, feeling the abnormal movement of Linzhou City, he realized that something was wrong, at this time, there were a large number of original Xu army, towards the north wall to kill.
The Jurchen camp outside the city, due to the sudden counterattack launched by the Huaxia army, the whole scene was chaotic for a moment, but after a while, it stabilized. Holding the long knife in his hand, he understood the intentions of the Black Flag Army. He laughed on his horse, and then issued military orders one after another, commanding all his troops to gather in formation and fight calmly.
There are more than 30,000 directly related to him, attacking, defending, position, and raiding, who he is afraid of, as long as he stands firm and counterattacks, this Huaxia army in Linzhou will no longer exist.
Even for the north gate that has not yet been opened, and the possible arrival of Wang Juyun's "Ming Wang Army", he has never neglected it.
At this time, from the rear of the northeast, there was fierce news that an army was about to break into the battlefield.
Shulie immediately raised his sword and led more than 4,000 people to meet him in person.
In the early hours of the morning, the city was burning, and the clashes and conflicts of nearly 100,000 people seemed to turn into a raging and chaotic flood, and it seemed like a crazy rolling wheel. Where Zhu Biao and others broke in, a low-quality Han army team had only completed the assembly not long ago, and due to the haste of the siege, neither the Jurchen nor the Han army's camp defense had really been done. They scattered the stray fish, and soon after, they were met with a fierce opponent.
On the side of the entire Black Flag Army, a total of nearly 20,000 people raided, and began to squeeze towards the center from different directions, and the Jurchens along the way launched stubborn resistance. On the side of the battlefield, Lu Junyi gathered more than 20 people under his command, watched this grand scene, and cautiously blended into the battlefield along the edge, trying to fish in troubled waters in this huge chaos.
This small team is like an inconspicuous drop of water, which dissolves into it and disappears in the blink of an eye......
The morning light lit up soon after, Guan Sheng and Xu Ning also joined the mill with the last brigade, the fight continued, from time to time there were companions around them who fell in blood, the Huaxia army broke through layers of defense, but then there were Jurchen teams from the side to kill, an hour after dawn, Wang Juyun led more than 20,000 Ming Wang troops to arrive at the battlefield.
At this time, the Jurchen army led by Shuliesu had already gained the upper hand in the battle, and the Huaxia army was biting the more than 30,000 Jurchen troops in great fatigue, repeatedly gathering and charging again and again, and did not expect the Huaxia army's crazy Shulie speed to lead thousands of people to continue to advance.
As a result, the battlefield spread, and when the Ming army arrived, a large number of Jurchen troops had lost accurate contact with the formation, and they could only gather together and continue to hunt down all the Chinese soldiers who could see that they were already at the end of the crossbow, and more were still the rout of the Han army that could be seen everywhere and spread all over the mountains. Soon after, these armies were again slaughtered by the Ming Dynasty's army.
Beacon smoke, permeating the ......
