Chapter 640: Crossbow Array, Wen Tian and Wu Huan's Liao State
The climate in the northwest is somewhat dry, but here in Fuzhou it is different.
A Yellow River flows through the middle and splits the place. On one side is the lonely Linfu Road on the opposite bank, and on the other side is the Baode Army.
The position of the Baode army was a little awkward, as the first line of defense of the Yellow River, they were under a mountain pack, and the territory in front of the Yellow River was very narrow, and it was not easy to exert it.
There is an advantage to the narrow territory, that is, they can find out what is happening on the other side of the Yellow River.
So when they found that the gate of Fuzhou City was opened, they all thought that this was to drive away the Liao warship.
The commander Xu Ke stood on the bank of the Yellow River and waved his hand: "Don't open your bow." ”
The crossbows behind him all released their bowstrings.
"Military master, these Liao people are arrogant!"
Xu Ke said lazily: "There are less than six hundred people, what are they arrogant?" I'm just here to find a way. ”
"War master, the Fold family on the other side is ready to drive them away, do we have to cooperate with one or two?"
The two sides face each other across the river, but the Zhejia family is the head snake of the land, not here.
The same is true for the generals of the iron-clad battalion, and the successive generals have little friendship with the Zhe family.
"No need...... But it's good to be pretentious, so as not to be impeached, and shout a few words later. ”
Xu Ke felt that folding his step-ancestor was just tossing blindly, and it was better to sleep with this kung fu.
The long-term peace made the Great Song army gradually lose its martial arts, and Wen Tian and Wu Huan are the truest portrayal.
"They...... What are they doing? ”
An exclamation from his subordinates made Xu Ke raise his eyes, and he was also stunned.
Those Fuzhou sergeants have already begun to prepare for the crossbow array......
it!
Zhe Jizu, what do you want to do here?
Xu Ke said in a panic: "It's fake...... Scare the Liao. ”
General Liao also thinks so, so he is very calm.
"What are the Song people doing?"
"It's trying to scare us!"
"Look, they're coming!"
The crossbow array of the Song army was approaching step by step.
General Liao sneered: "Order the ship above to dock and go ashore to scare and scare them......"
There was a ship on standby upstream, and after a few waves of the flag, it approached.
Song Jun was a little nervous, and someone was muttering.
"After the defeat of the Gaoliang River that year, I never fought with the Liao people again...... Did you them? ”
"Will they retaliate?"
What the weak fear most in the face of the strong is revenge, and revenge is also a repertoire for the strong to deter the weak.
Tang Ren walked at the forefront with a long knife, and when he reached the bottom of the mountain, he asked, "Is it possible to shoot them here?" ”
Ji Zu was a little nervous, "Yes." But ......"
"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! ”
Tang Ren suddenly shouted.
The crossbow array of the Song army was stunned, and the habitual obedience to the order immediately took effect.
Because the distance is very close, the angle of inclination of the crossbow bow is relatively large, and then the crossbow machine is pulled......
When a black cloud appeared in the sky, Liao Jiang's face changed drastically and shouted, "Go back!" Go back! ”
The arrogance and self-confidence just now all dissipated, and at this moment, the faces of the Liao people were full of despair.
"Help!"
Someone crouched down, trying to use the body of his comrade to dodge the crossbow arrows.
Someone pulled out a long knife in a panic, ready to block the crossbow arrows. But the speed of the crossbow is very fast, and this is just useless work.
"Run!"
What are the consequences of being attacked by a crossbow on a ship that cannot move?
Everyone knows that a desperate situation is coming.
The pop was endless, and the Liao people began to jump into the river to flee for their lives.
Without hesitation, the boatman rowed, and the flotilla began to turn......
But these actions are all in vain under the speed of the crossbow arrow.
The black clouds rushed over, some raised their shields and screamed, some brandished long knives indiscriminately, and some jumped into the river in fear......
Puff puff......
In an instant, it was as if a small tree had been planted on these boats, and the Liao soldiers who had been hit by the arrows fell into the water screaming, but their comrades did not lend a helping hand.
"Zhe Jizu is crazy!"
General Liao escaped by hiding behind the shield, he looked at the Zhe Jizu on the shore blankly, and suddenly pointed at Tang Ren and shouted: "There are civil officials, why does Zhi Jizu dare to release arrows......"
In the eyes of the Liao people, the civil officials of the Song people were probably the weakest and deceitful, and they never dared to resist.
But there was a civil official on the shore, and not only did he not stop it, but his face turned red with excitement, as if he had found a peerless beauty smiling at him.
That's Tang Ren.
"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! ”
When he came to Fuzhou from Bianliang, he wanted to fight with the Xixia people, but Li Liangzuo didn't come here, so he could only stay and wait, hoping to be transferred back to Bianliang after three years.
Now the Tangut people did not come, but the Liao people came.
The crossbow bolts rose into the air again, and the Liao fleet had turned around and began to flee frantically.
"Come back!"
Tang Ren was completely insane. He brandished his long knife, his cuffs slipped down, and half of his arms were exposed, and he shouted to the sky, "Dog mongrel, come!" Come here and see how your Grandpa Tang kills! ”
The fleet of the Liao army was frantically fleeing, and the Baode army on the other side was already dumbfounded.
How dare they kill the Liao?
Xu Ke stood there, thoughts swirling in his mind.
"Lord, are they crazy?"
His subordinates were all panicked, and someone said: "If the Liao army retaliates, the Baode army will bear the brunt!" ”
"Isn't it Fuzhou?"
"Where can Fuzhou withstand a blow from the Liao army? Don't you want to vent your anger in the end? If it was the Song-Liao War...... That step-ancestor is a sinner! ”
"The Great War of Song and Liao...... Can we win? ”
"Shut up!"
Xu Ke drank his men in distraught, and then looked at the fleet.
The fleet of the Liao people was in a hurry, and the Liao people who fell into the water on the river were calling for help.
Everywhere there are Liao people who are floating and sinking...... What should I do?
"Lord, are you going to save them?"
Xu Ke shook his head, "What should I do if these people are rescued?" Can you still be captured? If you put it back, some people will say that it is conniving with the enemy, but since you are in a dilemma, then leave it alone. ”
"Lord, over there...... Over there......"
Xu Ke followed the fingers of his subordinates and saw that the civilian official was carrying a long knife and rushed towards the Liao army that had landed earlier.
"It's ...... Is it Tang Ren? ”
"That's right, it's him!"
The spring breeze in the northwest was still cold, but Tang Ren felt that his whole body was hot.
He rushed away, and those Liao soldiers were a little dumbfounded when they saw him so crazy, and then formed a formation.
They didn't run away because the time between returning to the ship and leaving was enough for the Song people to fire their crossbows several times.
This was the reaction of the elite, Tang Ren didn't know, but Zhen Jizu knew, so he took a team of sergeants to overtake Tang Ren and rush in first.
The blood was soaring, reminding Tang Ren of the experience of defeating the assassin outside Bianliang City.
"Kill!"
The highest official on Linfu Road is killing the enemy, what do others think?
"Kill!"
All the soldiers burst out with great enthusiasm, and the more than thirty people were scattered in an instant.
A Liao army was turning around, and Tang Ren attacked from behind and slashed at it with a knife.
"Bell!"
This Liao army was a veteran, and he blocked Tang Ren's attack very neatly, and then prepared to counterattack.
This was Tang Ren's first time in battle, but he didn't panic at all.
"Ruler!"
Those sergeants were panicked, and some of them bent their bows and arrows, but Tang Ren's speed was faster.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Tang Ren's long knife was blocked, he let go, and then pounced, biting his opponent's face with one mouth......
"Whew......"
A beast-like howl echoed on the bank of the Yellow River, and Zhi Jizu turned around to look at this scene, and couldn't help but praise: "What a ruler! ”
When Tang Ren stood up, the corners of his mouth and chin were bloody.
He looked at the river full of corpses and shouted, "This is the Liao people? ”
As soon as Zhe Jizu's heart moved, he said: "Yes, the elite of the Liao people." ”
Tang Ren said with a smile: "What kind of bullshit elite, we killed it all in two hits, it can be seen that the Liao army is not terrible, what is terrible is that we are afraid of ourselves first." ”
It's a cheer for everyone.
"Big win! Treat the whole army today! ”
Tang Ren's words detonated emotions, and the sergeants cheered, and the sound reached the fleet in the distance.
"The Song people are crazy!"
General Liao's face turned pale, and he knew that he would be unlucky when he went back, so he said: "You have all seen that the civil officials of the Song people are crazy. ”
The wounded were screaming, and the uninjured were trembling, not yet recovering from the fear of the crossbow bolts they had just had.
These people are indeed elite, but the long peace also makes them inexperienced.
"Yes, the civil officials of the Song people are crazy."
Tang Ren's madness on the shore left a deep impression on everyone, breaking the inherent impression left by the civil officials of the Great Song Dynasty.
Someone said, "But we're crossing the border......"
Song Liao was peaceful, but border crossings occurred from time to time, so no one thought about being attacked by the Song people.
"And it's a waterway."
The Song people were afraid that the Great Liao would attack from the waterway, which was not a secret, but a laughing stock in the Liao population.
At this time, a boat came from above, and before it got closer, it shouted: "It's Tang Ren in Fuzhou City, it's Tang Ren from that Rite Courtyard, let you go back......"
General Liao looked at his subordinates who had suffered heavy losses and finally burst into tears.
Tang Ren...... Originally, it was the Guanli Academy, and he was very familiar with the envoys of the Great Liao. ”
Everyone was stunned, General Liao raised his head, his face was full of chagrin: "This person was taught by Shen An, Shen An...... That's a madman! ”
Everyone remembered the Battle of Xiongzhou, that Shen An was really brave, he killed all the elites of the Liao army overnight, and he was bold enough to build Jingguan.
Such a daring guy, what kind of person will he teach?
Like gathers like you!
General Liao said remorsefully: "Why didn't you send the news earlier?" Why? ”
When the boat approached, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw their miserable appearance, and then said, "I have already reported it, but ...... But the news was thrown in the box. ”
"Grass mud horse!"
"How can such a big event be forgotten?"
"Before the war, you must know the temperament of the enemy general, so that you can be sure, but what did they do? Damn it, I missed such news! ”
These defeated troops shouted and cursed one after another, and the Liao general's voice was the loudest.
"It's murder! This is someone trying to murder me! ”
"Go back and settle accounts with them!"
Every strong country will gradually weaken, and the beginning must be Wen Tian and Wu Xi.
This is the case with the Great Song Dynasty, and the same is true with the Liao Kingdom!
……
The Fuzhou army was still cleaning up the battlefield, and someone asked, "What about the Liao people in the river?" ”
Tang Ren's excitement passed, and he said lightly: "Go and cut off your ears, and the rest ...... Feed the fish! ”
So the end of those Liao troops was doomed, and later the cries for help gradually disappeared, and they were all drowned in the river.
At this time, someone from the other side came by boat.
"Zhizhou, it's Xu Ke!"
