Eighty-five captures the central capital (II)

On the other hand, the Song army's superiority in infantry and naval forces was still very obvious. Among them, because the Jin army was limited by geographical conditions, the navy army could not catch up with or approach the Song army in a short period of time.

But in terms of the infantry army, the Song army also walked ahead of the Jin army. Not only did many different infantry units develop, but also a variety of infantry tactics, as well as infantry and cavalry, infantry and crossbowmen. It also played a great role in the offensive and defensive battles of the city, mountain warfare, urban street battles and some special environments.

Wan Yan Changzhi is a person with great insight and vision, and he will never defend the cavalry. It was also known that if there was no infantry army that could match the Song army, then the Jin army would most likely lose the battle with the Song army in the future. Therefore, for more than six years after the Southern Expedition, he has been sparing no effort to train the infantry army in Nanjing, and imitated the situation of the Song army, formed various infantry arms, and even overrode public opinion, and incorporated a considerable part of the female soldiers into the infantry, so now, it is the turn of the infantry army for the first time to show the results of its usual training.

The "shield spear forest array" under the cloth of Wanyan Changzhi evolved from the Song army's "heavy armor and hemp sword array", replacing the heavy armor with a tower shield to protect the soldier's body, and the long spear in front of the forest, to say the least, also stretched out six or seven feet long, which made people unable to parry at all. In terms of the power of the combination of offense and defense, it may be inferior to the "heavy armor and hemp sword formation", but in this kind of street fighting, it is not inferior at all. In the face of such a position, the defenders were at a loss and had nowhere to focus.

Among An Ze's disciples, there were a few stunned young people, who had never been on the battlefield, only relying on their own martial arts, and insisted on forcibly attacking the "shield gun array", but before they could get close to the shield, they were blocked by the spears, although they tried their best to set up a few spears, but there was enough to block this dense gun array, almost everyone was pierced through the body by several spears, and died.

When the others saw it, they didn't dare to step forward easily, so they had to retreat step by step under the approach of the "shield gun array". Although in order to maintain a neat queue, the advance speed of the "shield gun array" is not fast, but how long can the entire Suzaku Street be, not to mention that it is also occupied by Wanyan Changzhi's army, and if it continues like this, it will only take half an hour at most, and the defenders will be forced to retreat to the palace.

Forced to retreat again and again, Tetu and Hylancha couldn't help but feel anxious. The two men glanced at each other, snatched a spear, and slammed it into a shield with all their might.

Hearing only two "knocks, knocks", the two soldiers with shields were able to block the impact of the two of them, and they were immediately transmitted from the shield to the body, and the meridians burst out, and the seven orifices bled to death. Three or four soldiers with guns behind him also spurted blood from their mouths and were killed at the time. Seeing that the two of them made a move, they opened a gap in the "shield gun array" at once, and the defenders couldn't help but let out a burst of cheers.

But when the two of them were not happy, the soldiers behind Yan Chang immediately stepped forward, armed with shields and guns, and suddenly blocked the gap again. Shocked and furious, Tetu and Hylanza swung their spears again and again at the shield wall, and although each blow they were able to open a gap in the shield wall, each time they were immediately rushed forward by the soldiers behind them, one after the other, and re-blocked.

After four or five times in a row, although they blocked the advance of the "Shield Gun Array", they could not defeat them like the last time. Moreover, their way of playing is the most exhausting, even Taitu and Hailancha themselves feel a little unbearable, and the other disciples do not have the skills of the two of them, so they have to retreat with the team.

An Ze saw it in the back, so he had to immediately order, and the men and horses all retreated to the imperial city, firstly, he respected his identity, and was unwilling to go into battle in person, and did it with ordinary soldiers, and secondly, he also paid for himself, even if he went up by himself, the result may not be much better than Taitu and Hailancha, and he may be able to hold out longer than them, but in this case, it will not help. Therefore, it is better to retreat to the imperial city and defend the city, so that this "shield and gun array" of Wanyan Changzhi will be useless.

But at this moment, suddenly there was a series of sounds overhead tearing the air, and countless feathered arrows flew down from the roofs of the houses on both sides, and the defenders fell to the ground one after another.

An Ze was shocked, when did Wanyan Changzhi send the archers to the roofs on both sides. And before he could figure out how to deal with it, there were murderous voices left and right, killing countless soldiers in every side alley of Suzaku Street, attacking the flanks of the defenders. The upper and lower attacked together, and the defenders could resist it, and suddenly there was chaos.

It turned out that Wanyan Changzhi not only learned the Song army to build the infantry steps, but also tried to learn the various tactics of the Song army, up and down as one, multi-point attack, this is the Song army in the city street battle commonly used tactics, once made the Jin army suffer, this time the life of Yan Changzhi to learn and use, the ground battle is just to attract the attention of the defenders, so that it is easy to arrange other troops, this time it will be the turn of the defenders of the capital to pay for the consequences. By this time, the defenders were completely disorganized, pushing and scrambling through the narrow streets, dodging the all-round attack from heaven to earth.

Wanyan Changzhi rode on a horse, and by the moonlight, he had a full view of the battle situation on the entire Vermilion Bird Street, and he couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart, this set of street fighting tactics of the Song army was really effective, so it was the first time he used it, and the details in many places were not completely satisfactory, at most only half of the power of the Song army, but he still defeated the defenders all at once, and it seems that he will strengthen training in this area in the future.

At this moment, Wan Yan Changzhi suddenly felt a strong wind above his head, enveloping him all within a radius of six feet above him, like a storm, pressing himself almost out of breath, and in the center of the storm, a substantial energy struck his Heavenly Spirit Gai. I knew in my heart that such a master, in the central capital, there was only An Ze.

However, over the years, Wanyan Changzhi's martial arts have not been put aside, and although he is in the rear at this time, he has not relaxed his vigilance at all, and has always maintained a state that he can shoot at any time. There was no time to look up to see who it was, and as soon as he met his body on his horse, the whole person was almost lying flat on horseback, spear in both hands, and stabbed towards the center of the storm with pure feeling.

Hearing only the sound of "fighting", Wanyan Changzhi's horse retreated a few steps, and a vague energy along the spear, also from his hands into his body, at first it was like a trickle, but in an instant it became like a fire. Wanyan Changzhi couldn't help but snort, only to feel extremely uncomfortable. However, the pressure on his head completely disappeared, and he knew that he had successfully blocked the enemy's attack.

Then Wan Yan Changzhi immediately sat up straight on horseback again, and at this time he only heard the sound of the wind above the roof on the left, and it was constantly mixed with the sound of fists and palms. Looking up, I saw three figures rising and falling sharply on the roof, and at first glance, I knew that it was the second and third masters who were fighting with An Ze very fiercely.

It turned out that An Ze saw that his side couldn't resist, and ordered the soldiers to retreat to the palace to defend, but he secretly sneaked up on the roof and secretly went over to attack Yan Changzhi. As long as Yan Changzhi can be killed, then the rebel people will be chaotic without a fight, and they will be able to save the situation. Knowing the strength of Yan Changzhi's martial arts, he was unexpected, this blow could only hurt Wan Yan Changzhi, but it didn't kill him. was about to make up for the palm, at this time there were already two strong winds towards him, the palm wind is strong, the skill is strong, and it is still above the end of the face. So that An Ze had to give up the pursuit of Yan Changzhi and face the fierce enemy first.

After the breathing of Yan Chang's luck and pranayama, the true qi is constantly running in Jingluo, and every time it is run, the injury is greatly reduced, and after running three times in a row, most of it is recovered.

At this time, the three people who were fighting fiercely on the roof separated abruptly, and An Ze said in a deep voice: "Doljia and Potala, is it difficult for the two of you to rebel with Wanyan Changyi?" ”

Doljia said lightly: "Didn't the national teacher see it now?" And why ask knowingly? ”

An Ze snorted and said, "Okay, you're all reversed." Although there was no change on his face, his heart was full of emotions and turmoil. Of course, he didn't know that Pu Feng was in retreat at this time, but seeing that Dorjia and Potala came forward to support Wanyan Changzhi with the scriptures, it could be concluded that Huining Temple had made a stand with the scriptures and stood on the side of Wanyan Changzhi. At this time, An Ze had no bottom in his heart.

Although he didn't think that Pu Feng would make a move in person, the four disciples under the seat were not good at each other, and he was confident to win one-on-one, but it was difficult to say one-on-two. What's more, although there are two people on the scene now, who dares to guarantee that the other two are not here. This is still second, Guan Jian is the general wind among the Jin people, because he is the older generation of Jurchens still has a huge influence, with his participation, can he still hold the central capital? Even this rebellion, can he and Wanyan Yungong still be able to quell it?

Thinking of this, An Ze couldn't help but look back, just a moment ago. The defenders all retreated to the palace, and Wanyan Changzhi's men and horses followed and followed through the palace gate into the palace. Although Tetu and Hylancha led the defenders and tried their best to hold the palace gates and prevent them from entering the palace. However, at this time, the men and horses of Wanyan Changzhi completely controlled the high point on the periphery of the palace, and attacked with bows and arrows, so that the defenders could not establish an effective defense on the city wall, and the other soldiers, led by Wen Gusun and Shi Zhan, constantly jumped over the city wall and entered the palace to see that the defenders could not resist it.

At this time, Wanyan Changzhi was about to jump on the roof to help the two masters, and Potala said: "Changzhi, we are here here, and we don't need you to help." Go do what you have to do. ”

Wan Yan Changzhi nodded and said, "Uncle Shi, be careful. As he spoke, he urged his horse and ran towards the palace. When he came to the city wall, he rose up, jumped on the city wall, and entered the imperial city. Then he unfurled his spear and attacked the defenders guarding the palace gate and killed him.

The soldiers saw that the main general personally went into battle, and their morale was greatly increased, at this time Taitu and Hailancha were leading the defenders, and fought fiercely with Wen Gusun and Shizhan at the palace gate. After the gap in the palace gate was opened, a large group of men and horses immediately poured into the palace like a tide, killing the defenders and defeating them into the palace.

At this time, Doljia said to An Ze: "National Teacher, if you still expect the defenders in the city to come to the rescue, then you can only be disappointed." We had already divided our troops into two ways, and the other way was to attack the barracks, and now the barracks were only afraid that the barracks would be overrun by another of our men. ”

Although I know that the other party is deliberately scratching my mind, but for such a long time, no reinforcements have been sent to the barracks, which is not normal in itself. Thinking of this, An Ze knew that the general trend was over, and the only thing he could do now was to kill the central capital, go to Yan Yungong, and then transfer back to the army that rescued Western Xia to conquer Yan Changzhi.

Thinking of this, An Ze also made up his mind, and immediately made a false move, turned around and swept over a few rooftops, and dodged into the imperial city. At this time, Wan Yan Changzhi led the men and horses to fully attack the palace, and the defenders were killed and scattered in all directions, Taitu and Hailancha could not resist for a long time, and there were only a dozen of Anze's other disciples left.

When everyone saw An Ze return to the imperial city, they hurriedly surrounded Long, and Taitu said, "Master, what should we do now?" ”

An Ze said: "Now that the central capital is gone, we can't stay here to die, first kill the central capital, find the emperor, and then mobilize a large army to conquer Yan Changzhi again." ”

When the other disciples heard this, they all nodded yes, so everyone worked together to kill the palace.

When the defenders in the palace saw that An Ze and the others had fled, they had no intention of resisting anymore, and raised their hands to surrender. Wanyan Changzhi took advantage of the situation to capture the entire palace. Even the stone Lieliangbi who stayed in the palace tonight did not escape

However, before attacking the palace, Wan Yan Changzhi said first, after attacking the palace, it was strictly forbidden for soldiers to loot the palace without permission, and it was not allowed to invade Wan Yan Yungong's harem concubines. Therefore, except for some losses caused at the beginning of the storming of the palace, and even manslaughter, but after the capture of the palace, they strictly abided by military discipline, and Qiu did not commit any crimes. Just restrict the activities of harem concubines. Even if it was Su Shi Lieliangbi, he was only put under house arrest in the duty room.

At this time, on another front, Shi Dingyue and Pu Atong led the army to attack the barracks. At this time, there were still more than 6,000 people in the barracks, but it was the middle of the night, and the emperor and Zhongdu were not in the city, so the garrison was very lax, and except for a few soldiers who were guarding the death, everyone else was asleep. Therefore, Shi Dingyue and Pu Atong easily killed the guards who were keeping vigil and entered the barracks. When the other soldiers woke up, Shi Dingyue and Pu Atong took control of the entire barracks, and the more than 6,000 defenders were all taken prisoner.

By dawn the next day, Wanyan Changzhi controlled the entire Central Capital.
