Chapter 1033: Storming Kangbei City
Kangbei City.
It belongs to the Southern Chen Empire and is located in the most central area, only three cities away from the imperial capital Jiankang City.
Chen Heng drove the expedition in person, led the troops of the four countries of Nan Chen, Dongying, Yuanfeng, and Shunming, and the city defense of Kangbei, Yue Fei and Ran Min failed to capture the city in one fell swoop.
The wilderness is full of soldiers in the wilderness, the Chu army has suffered heavy losses, if it weren't for Xue Rengui, Huo Qubing arrived in time, Ran Min, Yue Fei's department would have suffered a catastrophe, the battle of Yin Ghost Stream, the Chu army turned a blow and turned defeat into victory, the cautious Chen Heng ordered the army to withdraw to Kangbei City, just sent scouts to gain insight into the movements of the Chu army, trying to find a suitable opportunity to wipe out the Chu army.
At this time.
In the temporary marching mansion in the city, Chen Heng received a message from the spies that the Chu army had made a comeback, and the number of the army had increased dramatically, and it was on par with the army of the four countries in the city.
The reinforcements of the Chu State increased and approached Kangbei City, and Chen Heng ordered Xiang Yan to notify the generals of the Three Kingdoms Alliance to come and discuss the matter of going out of the city to meet the enemy.
It is now dusk, the clouds are drifting away, the glow is dyed, brilliant and bright, shoulder to shoulder with the sky.
The six-way siege vanguard army carried several zhang high equipment, wearing Xuan armor and holding a battle shield, with a huge momentum and earth-shattering.
Time is like an arrow, twisting his fingers and flying.
In less than two hours, the sound of the Chu army's banner hunting spread all over Kangbei City, Yang Zaixing, Zhang Xian, Gao Shun, Liyi, and Zhao Ponu stood up one after another, and ordered the soldiers of the three armies to implement trebuchets, bed crossbows, and cloud ladders, and frantically approached Kangbei City.
On the castle.
Chen Heng had already arrived, and Xiang Yan and the generals of the Three Kingdoms on both sides stood with their troops, staring at the Chu army under the city with cold eyes, and Tong Jing, the general of the Shunming Empire, was the first to speak.
"The Chu army, just sent the vanguard army to come to feint, it is not a problem, this general will take people out of the city and kill all the enemy's six-way vanguard army."
"General Tong, the Chu Army's five-way army is combined into one, and its power should not be underestimated, so I will go with you."
The person who spoke was Lan Yu, the general of the Shunming Empire, who was still the founding general of the Ming Dynasty in history.
And this time Shunming sent two generals to come, one is Tong Jing, who is known to be brave in the world, and the other is Lan Yu, the age difference between the two is huge, but Lan Yu's prestige and merits in Shunming are not weaker than Tong Jing.
The Shunming Empire was invited to the War College and sent two strong generals to help Nan Chen, not without asking for anything, and Emperor Shunming also had his plans.
Lan Yu and Tong Jing left the city one after another, Chen Hengguanzhi did not say anything to stop it, the Chu army only had the six-way vanguard army, and he firmly believed that with the strong combat power of the Shunming Empire, the vanguard army of the Chu State could be easily defeated.
Yang Zaixing, Zhang Xian and the six commanded the soldiers to transport the siege equipment to the location of the time, and did not consider whether there would be an enemy general out of the city, they came to decide to storm Kangbei City, defeat the strong troops of the four countries, and take the imperial capital of Nanchen Jiankang.
Hundreds of trebuchets, bed crossbows pointed directly at Kangbei City, like a cannon, suddenly, the city gate opened, Lan Yu, Tong Jing galloped out of the city, followed by the Shunming Empire.
Listening to the earth-shattering killing shouts, Yang Zaixing's spear pointed straight at the sky, and the top of the chariot behind him was full of war drums.
The fierce sound of war drums was the order given, and the soldiers began to set the gunpowder bags on the trebuchets in an orderly manner.
Time.
In the sky above Kangbei City, the gunpowder bag that covered the sky and the sun flew out, the gunpowder smoke cut through the sky, and the gunpowder bag flew towards Lan Yu like a bullet, Tong Jing's army.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The sound of the explosion shook the universe, and the flying sand and rocks on the ground were suspended, and the frightened war horses whispered and neighed in the loud noise, and many of them broke free and galloped away.
Suddenly.
Lan Yu, Tong Jing's department fell into chaos, the power of the gunpowder bag made it impossible for them to move forward, explosions continued, sand and stones splashed, and the war horses galloped wildly.
The second general of Shunming tightened the reins in his hand, trying to break through the bombardment of the gunpowder bag, and the Chu army under the command of the six generals staggered forward one after another.
"Don't panic the officers and soldiers of the three armies, stabilize the formation, and rush forward with General Ben."
The sound of blue jade is like a bell, holding a spear in his hand, and his legs are clapping his horse and running forward, at this time, Yue Fei came from the Chu army formation on horseback, looking at the enemy soldiers in a panic under the city of Kangbei, the Liquan gun rose into the sky, signaling the drums on the chariot to stop.
"The generals listened to the order, let the enemy soldiers come forward, and when they appeared in the attack range, they ordered bed crossbows and trebuchets to attack together."
Lan Yu, Tong Jing suffered a violent impact when he left the city, he was already angry, seeing that the attack of the Chu army weakened, his confidence skyrocketed, and he decided to rush forward and destroy all the siege equipment in one fell swoop.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
At the sound of an order, the generals of Shunming forcibly stabilized the shaking horses under their command, and galloped away with their sharp soldiers.
War horses galloped, smoke and dust hit the air.
Looking at the approaching Shunming generals, a light smile appeared on Yue Fei's resolute face, waiting for them to enter the attack range.
Lan Yu ordered the heavy cavalry to break through the siege equipment of the Chu army as the vanguard, but when they rushed forward, the Chu army, which had stopped attacking, suddenly attacked, and the overwhelming spears flew out of the bed crossbows, penetrating the air barrier, like a dragon walking in the air.
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
The spear flew out and knocked over all the Shunming heavy cavalry and the men and horses that rushed to the front, and the sharp spear passed through the body, and one after another figures flew out from the horse's back, fixed to the ground by the spear, and the gurgling blood slid down the handle of the gun.
The bed crossbow of the Chu State is huge, and after the joint modification of Shen Kuo, Lu Ban, Zhang Heng, and Zhuge Liang, it can shoot ten spears at the same time, which is full of lethality, and it will kill if you touch it.
Lan Yu, Tong Jing watched the heavy cavalry army rushing to the front instantly overwhelmed by the flying spears of the Chu army, his eyes were boiling with anger, he tightened the reins in his hand, and fled back towards Kangbei City.
Yue Fei did not order the soldiers of the three armies to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and ordered the six siege pioneers to push forward the trebuchet and bed crossbow again, and this time the Chu army decided to counterattack and storm Kangbei City, so it was necessary to completely surround the city step by step.
On the city, Chen Heng saw that the Shunming army had returned in vain, and the Chu army continued to approach forward, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Dongying, the strong generals of Yuanfeng and Yuanfeng listened to the order, and ordered Er and others to go out of the city from the east and west gates, and attack the Chu army on the left and right flanks."
"Xiang Yan sent an order to go down and ordered the three armies to prepare the defense equipment for the city, and they must not be allowed to get close to the city, in case the Chu army stormed Kangbei City."
Chen Heng didn't expect the Chu army to be so tenacious, the battle in Kangbei City was deadlocked, and there was no news in the direction of Jiannan City, he was worried about the situation of the strong generals of the War College, he was afraid that it was similar to Kangbei City, and was being attacked by the army of Chu.
