Chapter 20 I, Downing, love peace
The five thousand elite cavalry sent by Wanyan Lou passed by the Song army, and they arrived at the foot of Mayu Mountain, without careful investigation, and saw that there were no people on the mountain, so they found a place to set up camp.
To tell the truth, Wanyan Lou sent them, and they were a million reluctant. Everyone is a person who has fought with the Song army in the Gubei Pavilion, how powerful the Song army is, there is no need to say more, right?
The weapons of the Song army were more advanced than theirs, and the range was long, and the lethality was even greater. The armor of the Song army was also stronger than theirs, and the distance of two hundred paces could not penetrate their armor and shield without a strong bow.
They really didn't know how to defeat the Song army, so the easiest way to do it was to stay away from the Song army.
It's better not to see people, and if you can't see them, hide in a corner so that they can't see us. Otherwise, you're going to have another nightmare.
Under the self-comfort of these 5,000 elite horsemen, the Zhenguo army quickly passed through the plain area under Mayu Mountain, and arrived near Dading Mansion without the slightest warning from Wanyan Lou's room.
Seeing that no one had come down from the mountain, the 5,000 elite horsemen at the foot of Ma Yu Mountain sent some people to investigate. As a result, traces of the movement of the large army were discovered, and the cavalry commander was in a cold sweat at that time, and hurriedly prepared to go back to inform Yan Lou's room.
But when he thought about it, after going back to inform Yan Lou's room, his old man would be so angry that he would behead himself for public display.
After thinking about it, he simply led his subordinates who had the same idea as him to kill the others, take away their property, grain and grass, and fled straight to the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and defected to the Khitans.
At this time, it was only ten days since the Song army set off from the Gubei Pavilion, and Wanyan Lou Room was shocked. It's only been a month since he withdrew his troops, why did the Song army come so quickly? The people who were sent out by themselves under Ma Yu Mountain didn't notice anything about it? Or are they, like lazy, not undiscovered, killed, or captured?
Wan Yan Lou's room is unknown, but the situation he is facing now is undoubtedly very serious.
Fortunately, he had already made preparations, and the terrain outside Dading Mansion was not very friendly to the Song army. There is a plain on all sides, and the only place where the slopes converge is also occupied by the Dading Mansion.
Therefore, Wanyan Lou immediately ordered the cavalry and soldiers to divide into two ways to attack the Song army's formation on the left and right. He himself went out of the city with 40,000 infantry to meet the enemy.
But the Song army didn't seem to have any intention of fighting them, and just retreated again and again. This made Wan Yan Lou feel incomprehensible, didn't the Song army come here to fight?
Soon Yan Lou knew that he was very wrong, and when he thought that the distance of three miles was a safe distance, he heard a series of muffled noises from the Song army barracks.
It was like a dull and frightening thunder, which suddenly sounded in the Song army camp.
When Yan Lou went out, he saw three black dots falling in the sky.
At that moment, his hair stood on end, and as a fierce general, his instincts told him that it was dangerous.
He didn't think about it, as if he was dodging a rain of arrows, he grabbed a shield from the ground, shrunk his whole body into a ball, and shrank behind the shield.
The three black dots in the sky fell to the ground in the eyes of the Jin Army, and soon, the loud explosion resounded throughout the Jin Army camp.
Broken porcelain and stone projectiles shot from the cannonballs fell on the bodies of the Jin soldiers like smoke and dust rising from the sky. Almost all of the soldiers of the Jin Army in the vicinity were scratched.
Wan Yan Lou shrank behind the shield, only to hear a series of knocking sounds on the shield. This reminded him of the sound of himself holding his shield above his head when it rained in hail.
Wanyan Lou Room was scared, if he could still muster up the courage to fight the Song army before, then this time he was really afraid.
The Song army was always using this kind of weapon of mass destruction to inflict damage on the Jin army, and the worst thing was that their range was still far away. I can't touch them, but they attack them unscrupulously, is there anything more shameless in this world?
Wanyan Lou didn't want the cavalry to attack first, and then he would attack when the Song army was in chaos. But the weapons of the Song army did make him a little afraid, and besides, the reinforcements from other states had not yet arrived, and the numerical advantage was not so obvious.
The Song army has this kind of weapon, and Wanyan Lou will not continue to fight with the Song army stupidly. He immediately ordered the whole army to retreat to the city, relying on the city wall to defend it, and the cavalry went to a place far away from the Song army to continue to wait.
After returning to Dading Mansion after Yan Lou's room, he climbed the city wall to look at the Song army. He saw that the Song army was also advancing in the direction of the city wall, so he cursed secretly.
However, the distance of 1,500 paces was not so unattainable for an archer standing on the city wall and on high ground.
When the Song army continued to advance, Wanyan Lou ordered the archer room as a warning.
However, the Song army was not afraid, they held their shields and continued to advance in the direction of the city wall.
The archers of the Jin army faced the Song army, which was armed to the teeth, in four words, impotent and furious.
Their arrows could not hurt the Song army at all, and occasionally caused damage to the Song army, also because they happened to shoot the arrow into the weak part of the Song army's infantry armor.
But in general, Song Jun is still an iron man in the eyes of Jin Jun, and it is difficult to hurt.
Wanyan Lou thought that relying on Dadingfu City, which was on the high grounds, he would be able to make the Song army helpless, but he soon found out that he was wrong, and he was very wrong.
Although Dading Mansion is not the capital of the Liao State, because it was built in the middle of the Liao Dynasty, the national strength is strong, and it has caught up with the Liao and Song dynasties for more than 100 years
The alliance and reconciliation period, so the capital was built better and larger than the capital Shangjing.
After the Jin people took it, they did not cause any damage to the scale of Dading Mansion. So this is a city that is difficult to conquer, and it is not just an empty word.
The city is fortified and thick, and it is difficult to capture it without putting a lot of effort into it. When the Jin army captured this place, it also took a lot of effort.
But Wan Yan Lou Room watched Song Jun push out the pitch-black long thick pipe with three doors on the board car, and then saw a few Song Jun operating on it, and then heard three thunders sound, and the city wall under his feet trembled in response.
What kind of weapon is this? Wanyan Lou's room is about to collapse, how can Song Jun come up with some new tricks?!
And Wanyan Lou suddenly found that it was not the thunder that shook the city wall, but the city wall was actually punched out of three big holes.
After the loud explosion, the ears of the Jin soldiers on the city wall were buzzing, and they lost their balance and barely stood firm on the city wall, only to find smoke and dust rising under their feet.
Looking down, it was caused by three large holes in the city wall.
Song Junzhong was cheering, and Tang Ning was even more overjoyed. The special cannonballs that were used just now were filled with gunpowder, which were specially used to blow up the city wall, and now it seems that the effect is really extraordinary, and if there are two more cannons, the entire side of the city wall will be blown down directly.
However, this was contrary to Tang Ning's wishes, so he took advantage of the fact that the Jin army had not yet eased up, and asked Wu Dazhuang to wear an iron bucket to go to the city to call out and say: "The Jurchens in the city, call your general to come out and speak!" ”
As soon as a Khitan man who knew Chinese next to Wanyan Lou told him this, Wan Yan Lou was about to poke his head out, but the guards around him hurriedly grabbed him and said: "Dashuai, there is an archer in the Song army who is unusually accurate, Dashuai should not risk his life, let his subordinates come down!" ”
Wan Yan Lou said: "Good! So he took off his clothes and exchanged clothes with the guard, and the guard reached out and pulled a handful of smoke and dust in front of him and said: "I am the general of the Jin Kingdom, who are you, report your name!" ”
Wu Dazhuang said: "I am the doctor of Yinqing Guanglu, the Zhonghu Army, the general of the left leading army, the general of the left Jin Wuwei, the observation envoy of the Liangzhejiang Road, the Xuanfu envoy of Hexi Jingdong, the commander of the Ma Bujun of the Zhenguo Army, the founding marquis of Danyang County, the commander of General Tangning Tang, and the Marquis of Wu Dazhuang in the left chamber Wujin camp!" ”
When the Khitan who knew Chinese heard the previous words, he almost opened his mouth to let the crossbowmen shoot fiercely. Hearing the back, he scolded secretly and translated it to the personal soldiers of Wanyan Lou's room.
After hearing this, the soldiers asked, "What is the matter with you?" ”
"My lord loves peace, he wants you to surrender quickly and hand over the Dading Mansion, otherwise when the city is broken, the golden people in the city will be killed!"
