Seventeen strong attack on Luzhou

One by one, the carts were pushed to the moat, and the carts of earth, sand and gravel were dumped into the river, and under the blows of the Jin army's bows and arrows and stones, the Song army's landfill work was carried out in an orderly manner.

In fact, the Song army did not want to completely fill in the moat, only a few roads through the moat could be filled in, so after a day of landfill work, the Song army filled in the moat with ten roads more than three zhang wide. However, more than 200 soldiers and more than 30 wheelbarrows were also lost.

On the second day, although the Song army's work of filling the moat continued, the brigade began to officially attack the city.

Two thousand Song soldiers carried wooden ladders and shields to approach the city walls of Luzhou. When he saw the commander of the city tower, he knew that he could no longer have reservations, so he ordered the Jin soldiers to start firing arrows again. All of a sudden, the arrows were mixed with stones, falling down the city like raindrops, some people in the Song army were hit by arrows, some people were hit by stones, and the atmosphere suddenly became miserable.

But the Song army all held high shields to block the arrows, and the number of stones was not much, so it did not have much impact on the progress of the Song army, and the Song army, which was not hit by arrows or was hit by stones, still advanced to the city wall of Luzhou City, walked through the Fangcheng River on the road filled with sand and stones, set up a wooden ladder on the city wall, braved the arrows, and began to climb towards the city.

At the same time, Yang Yan transferred a thousand archers from the Song army's array, approached the edge of the city, shot arrows at the city wall, suppressed the arrows of the Jin army, and covered the Song army's siege.

The golden soldiers of the city wall used the cover of the battlement, first shot with bows and arrows, smashed with stones and giant trees, and even poured boiling water from the city wall, and when the Song army approached the battlement, they stabbed with spears to block the siege of the Song army.

Among the Song troops besieging the city, some were shot, some were stoned to death by stones or giant trees, and some were doused with boiling water, and they were so scalded that they screamed. The number of deaths increased a lot at once, and Song soldiers continued to fall down the wooden ladder and die by the city wall, falling on the way to attack. There were many corpses of Song soldiers who piled up under the city wall and fell into the moat, but there were many more Song troops who were not afraid of life and death and continued to attack the city wall until they also fell.

With the passage of time, the fierce siege battle lasted for more than two hours, and the Song army killed at the south gate alone exceeded 1,000, and the wounded number was as many as hundreds. However, because Yang Yan never used the cloud ladder and only relied on ordinary wooden ladders to attack the city, although the Song army suffered heavy casualties, it did not pose much danger to Luzhou City, and no one was able to attack the city wall. However, Yang Yan still did not stop, and still ordered the Song army to continue to attack fiercely.

At this time, Li Bao couldn't help it a little and said, "Zihao, it's useless to attack like this, it can only increase our casualties." I can't capture Luzhou with this, so I think I should find another way to attack the city. ”

Yang Yan nodded and said, "Li Zhaofu, I also know that it will be impossible to capture Luzhou in this way, but I just want to consume the energy of the defenders, and now I can officially start the attack." ”

Li Bao was stunned and said, "Zihao, do you have any plans for attacking the city?" ”

Yang Yan smiled faintly and said, "There is no clever plan, but now take out all the cloud ladders and use them, and I will personally lead the army to kick the city." We must capture Luzhou today. ”

Li Bao's whole body was shocked, and he said, "What, Zihao, do you want to attack the city yourself?" You are the commander of an army, but you must not be in danger. ”

It is not surprising that in the confrontation on the battlefield, the commander-in-chief of the whole army will often personally fight to boost morale. But siege warfare is different from other battles, it is the most dangerous kind of all kinds of battles, and it is often a life-or-death battle. Once there is a mistake, it will shake the morale of the army and create an irreparable situation. Therefore, there will never be a Lord who will personally participate in the battle of kicking the city.

But Zhao Yueru understood Yang Yan's thoughts, he wanted to sacrifice a part of the Song army first to consume the energy of the defenders, and at the same time let the Jin soldiers have the idea that the Song army was nothing more than that. Then he used the only twelve cloud ladders, hoping to personally kick the city with his own martial arts, catch the Jin army off guard, and kick the city wall, and at the same time open a gap for the Song army to attack the city wall. So on the side he said, "I'll go with you." ”

Yang Yan was slightly stunned, in fact, he didn't want Zhao Yueru to participate in the siege with him. Although during this period of time, Yang Yan let Zhao Yueru personally fight in every battle and lead the army to charge. But that's because he has great confidence in Zhao Yueru's martial arts. But the siege battle is too dangerous, and even though Zhao Yueru is skilled in martial arts, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents. However, although Yang Yan thought so, when he saw Zhao Yueru's firm and affectionate eyes, he knew that it was useless for him to say anything, and said, "Okay, let's capture Luzhou together." ”

At this time, Ling Xiang, Huang Mingxia, Zhao Cao, Zhu Que, Hong Shu'er and others also surrounded and said, "We are also going to attack the city." ”

Yang Yan nodded and said, "Okay, let's attack the city together, and we must take Luzhou today." He turned to Li Bao and said, "Li Zhaofu, now I bother you to command for me in the back." ”

Li Bao's heart also rolled up a thousand waves, and vaguely remembered the scene when Yue Fei sent out from Ezhou to attack the Jin army in 1140, the tenth year of Shaoxing. Such a scene has not appeared in the Great Song Dynasty for many years. Thinking of this, Li Bao clasped his hands into fists, bowed deeply to everyone, and said, "Everyone, please cherish it and accept my Li Bao's gift." ”

The cloud ladder is different from the ordinary wooden ladder, it is generally divided into two to three sections, it can be folded up at ordinary times, and it can be opened when it comes to the siege, it can be as high as nearly ten zhang, and there are supports on both sides, which is very stable. The base is fitted with four wheels to propel forward. Although the power of the siege is not as good as the tower car, it is lighter than the tower car, and it is easier to carry, so Yang Yan's army turned to attack Huaixi, although it was lightly armed, but it also brought twelve cloud ladders.

At that moment, Yang Yan divided the only twelve cloud ladders into three ways to attack, himself and Zhao Yueru took four cloud ladders as the middle road, Ling Xiang and Huang Mingxia took four for the left side, and Zhao Cao and Suzaku took four for the right side. And Yang Yan told them that after arriving at the city, they should use all the cloud ladders together, because the Song army only has twelve cloud ladders, and they can't form a large-scale attack with Ben, so it's better to use them all together, although the siege points will be less, but it can make the siege force more concentrated.

Sure enough, because the attention of the Jin army was attracted by the Song army that was besieging the city, when Yang Yan and others led a thousand Song troops to advance to the city wall, the Jin army was only regarded as another group of reinforcements to attack the city, and did not attract much attention. When approaching the city wall, the Song army immediately divided into three teams, each of them crossed the moat from the filled gravel road, approached the city wall, and then drove the cloud ladder.

Suddenly, when he found that the Song army's cloud ladder had been erected and merged into a slope avenue leading to the city wall, Jin Jun knew that something was wrong. Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru flew side by side along the cloud ladder towards the city wall, and Hong Shu'er and the other five people followed closely behind them. The golden soldiers defending the city hurriedly smashed bows, arrows, cannons, rolling logs, thunderstones, and so on down on them.

The two of them each unfolded their knives and sticks, covering their bodies from the wind and rain. They are all people with excellent skills, and the distance of a few zhang high is passing in a blink of an eye, and in the exclamation of the Jin soldiers, the two of them attacked near the head of Luzhou City. At this time, more than ten Jin soldiers saw that the situation was critical, and they didn't care about exposing their bodies, so they jumped to the battlements, condescendingly, and each raised their spears and stabbed down on the two of them.

Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru exchanged glances with each other, and immediately understood each other's intentions. Zhao Yueru used force under her feet, and as soon as she kicked on the pedal board, the whole person immediately rose into the air and jumped over the heads of these golden soldiers. Yang Yan waved the treasure knife, and with a flash of blue light, he cut off all the heads of more than ten spears.

The ten famous Jin soldiers were all shocked, and at this time, Zhao Yueru fell to the city wall with a warp, leaned forward, and swept the long stick behind him, "Hula", and swept all the more than ten Jin soldiers down the city. There were dozens of Jin soldiers on the city wall, each raising their swords and guns, and attacked Zhao Yueru.

At this time, Yang Yan stepped on the city wall, waved his sword, and entered the battle group, and the two joined forces to resist the enemy back to back, and immediately killed the golden soldiers on the left and right sides one after another. The gap in the city wall was immediately opened, and in the blink of an eye, Hong Shu'er and the other five sisters also kicked the city wall, and immediately formed a sword formation at the intersection of the cloud ladder to guard the open gap. The Song soldiers kicked the city wall from the gap one after another, and fought with the Jin army in the city.

Seeing that the gap on this side was opened, Yang Yan and Zhao Yueru immediately split up and killed on both sides, catching up with the other Song troops who were climbing towards the city. At this time, Ling Xiang, Huang Mingxia, Zhao Cao, and Vermilion Bird on the other sides also successfully kicked the city wall and started a hand-to-hand fight with the Jin army. The gaps were opened one by one, and more and more Song soldiers stepped on the city walls and joined the war group. There were such a few fierce generals to help in the battle, and the Jin army was not an opponent with Ben, and was killed by the Song army into a mess and collapsed.

At this time, Shi Mo Zhongwen, who commanded the Jin army to fight in the city tower, was dumbfounded, the previous Song army siege did make him nervous for a while, but after resisting for a while, he found that although the momentum of the Song army's siege was not small, it did not have much effect, and the siege was just a general wooden ladder, presumably the Song army came from afar, and did not bring the siege of the county, so Shi Mo Zhongwen was very relieved, and he didn't care too much about the Song army carrying the cloud ladder to attack the city, because it was just a mere ten cloud ladders, how much effect it could play.

But he didn't expect such a slight negligence, the situation immediately changed, and the Song army somehow kicked the head of the city all of a sudden, and there were more Song troops who were also kicking the head of the city, gathering more and more. Now Shi Mo Zhongwen was also a little dazed, not knowing whether to attack and destroy the Song army with all his strength to kick the city wall, or to stop the Song army from continuing to kick the city, he was at a loss for a while, and he saw the city in chaos, but there was no way at all.

And Li Bao, who succeeded Yang Yan in commanding the Song army to attack the city, saw that Yang Yan and others joined the siege, and the Song army really attacked the city tower, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and at the same time, he was also very relieved, and hurriedly transferred two thousand Song troops to continue to reinforce the siege. He also ordered Wei Jiao to lead Wu Kuang and Wu Qing brothers and sisters to lead three thousand Song troops to approach the city gate of Luzhou, just waiting for the Song army to kill the city wall to open and close the bridge, and then enter the city after opening the city gate.

At this time, in the city of Luzhou, three or four hundred Song soldiers kicked the city wall and started a white-knuckle battle with the Jin army. Shi Mo Zhongwen also seemed to come back to his senses, and he didn't care about the Song army that was still besieging the city, and commanded the Jin army to resist desperately. The city wall was full of swords and swords, and flesh and blood were flying, and it didn't take long for countless corpses to be ambushed, and blood flowed all over the ground.

In the fierce battle, Yang Yan saw that there were more and more Song troops stepping on the city wall, and gradually gained a firm foothold in the city wall with the scriptures, and the army was concentrated under the city with the scriptures. Yang Yan immediately gathered with Zhao Yueru and Ling Xiang, and Yang Yan said: "Yueru, Ling Xiang, you immediately lead some people to kill the city, open and close the lock, and open the city gate." I led the men to seize the towers, lowered the drawbridge, and put the brigade of men and horses outside the city into the city. ”

Zhao Yueru nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry, we will definitely kill and open the city gate." Then he cried out, "Soldiers, come with me to kill the city and seize the gates." As he spoke, he picked up the dragon stick and went to the city. Ling Xiang and Huang Mingxia followed closely by her side, one left and one right. Two hundred Song soldiers followed the three of them and went to the city together.

Because of the protection of Ling Xiang and Huang Mingxia on both sides, Zhao Yueru could deal with the Jin army in front of him wholeheartedly. Or pick or stab, sweep and unload, fight soldiers, see the sweep generals, none of them are spared, and the golden soldiers and golden generals who will block in front of them will be killed on their backs and scattered to avoid. Slaughtered from the city wall to the city like a bamboo.

At this time, more than 3,000 Jin troops also gathered under the city, because the city wall was narrow and could not be inserted, so they could only wait under the city. At this time, when he saw Zhao Yueru and others killed from the city wall, they immediately swarmed and launched a fierce attack on the Song army.

But Zhao Yueru was not afraid, and waved the long stick to kill into the Jin army, after the long stick was full of true strength, as long as any Jin soldier entered within an eight-foot radius in front of her, all of them were beaten off their weapons, flesh and blood flew sideways, and they died, and no one could stop her. Ling Xiang and Huang Mingxia on both sides of the sword came out together, firmly guarding both sides of Zhao Yueru, where the sword blade passed, there was always an enemy who would die of blood.

Relying on the support of the three of them in the army, this team of only more than 200 Song troops was forced to kill step by step from the encirclement of more than 3,000 Jin troops to the city gate, the Jin army could not stop it at all, and the people and horses arrived, only to kill the Jin soldiers on their backs, wounded and killed everywhere, and the blood was everywhere, shocking. Despite this, when the Song army arrived at the entrance of the city gate in Luzhou, there were only 100 people left, and the remaining Song soldiers were all bloody, and none of them were not injured. Even Zhao Yueru's silver armor was covered with blood, and she could barely see the original color.
