1316 Bombardment of the Hosts

In terms of the shackles, at the beginning of the attack, the Jin army used the strongest means and left no strength.

For example, powerful offensive and defensive heavy weapons such as general cannons, thunder crossbows, etc., all went into battle together, and the huge stone bullets and long arrows thicker than spears pierced the void, emitting a sharp whistling sound, wrapped in great strength, and mercilessly splashed towards the camp occupied by the army!

When the generals of the reinforcements from Hebei were still blocking Shi Xuan's big tent to inquire about the situation, many noises were soon interrupted by the thunderous roar caused by the attack of the Jin army outside, and the shock that almost shook the mountains.

Feeling the faint tremor of the ground under his feet, Shi Xuan's face also changed suddenly, and the anger originally caused by the evacuation of the Xingguoqu garrison and the interrogation of the generals also stagnated.

His face sank, and he suddenly shouted: "This kind of baseless rumor is obviously a rumor spread by the Jin army spies to shake the hearts of our army!" The city is high and wide, how can it be easily attacked? Besides, how many Jin troops are there in Henan? Now that half of Tai is gathered here, is it possible that Shen Mu, the southern thief, is begging the heavens to come to the heavenly soldiers, so that he has the strength to counterattack my territory? ”

"Now there is a lack of Jin troops outside the camp, but Le'an is just a fisherman. If they stay on the boat, they can still take advantage of the momentum of the Haihe River, and once they go ashore, how much can they bring to the county border? Besides, I have already sent Liu Gaozi of the North Road to lead his troops to guard the border, even if you are worried about the gains and losses of the township, you have also given me my life to deal with the current war! Whoever dares to fight in fear because of rumors, I will behead him to show his military might! ”

Speaking of this, Shi Xuan's face was already full of murderous intent, and he did not hide it.

When the generals heard this, they were all silent for a while, and the roar of the attack from outside became louder and louder, no matter how worried they were, as Shi Xuan said, they had to deal with the current war before they could think more.

So the people ceased to gather around the place, but dispersed and returned to their respective forces, and began to oversee the war.

After drinking and retiring from the generals, Shi Xuan's mood did not improve, on the one hand, he was naturally still annoyed by the rash withdrawal of the Xingguoqu garrison, which made him think that the stable layout structure was suddenly missing a corner, and this kind of behavior of leaving without telling the public, at any time, is definitely the target of the Ming canonical punishment!

But Shi Xuan doesn't have the energy to send people to chase after him at the moment, and although he said conclusively that the Jin army simply doesn't have enough spare strength to overcome the disgust, he is actually a little worried in his heart.

As the governor of southern Hebei, Shi Xuan naturally understood the general defense situation of Leling County, so the southerners did not attack Leling before, not because of how stable the defense of Leling was, but because the terrain between Leling and the plain is also flat.

But now, all the armies in southern Hebei have been drawn to the base, and if the southerners really want to attack Leling, they really don't need to send too strong forces. Once the Nanren captured the city of Yanci, it was not so easy for the army to recapture the city of Yanci by relying on the continuous reinforcements of the back road and Haibo.

And tired of this place, although it is not as good as the fangtou directly into the heart of the country, but it is in the source of money and grain in southern Hebei, once it falls into the hands of the Jin people, it will make the already stretched domestic demand situation of the country even worse!

Thinking of this, Shi Xuan's face was already a little cold, and his mood was no longer as calm as before. He naturally knew that the main intention of the Lord to attack Henan now was to plunder Henan's money and grain for his own use.

But now that he has just opened a portal here, it is unknown whether he will be kicked out by the master again, and if his own barn with shallow savings is kicked over, how the Lord will react, can imagine!

However, Shi Xuan was in no mood to continue to speculate whether he had lost it, because the offensive of the Jin army outside the camp was becoming more and more turbulent, so that even the utensils placed on the bookcase in his big tent trembled!

Shi Xuan put on his armor and walked out of the camp quickly, but as soon as he was halfway through, he was stopped by the general who supervised the battle in front: "The Jin army's offensive is too fierce, the blade has no eyes, Your Highness, please be cautious, don't get too close to the front line!" ”

Hearing this, Shi Xuan's face was a little unkind, but when he heard the roar of the ground shaking and the thick smoke and dust rising from the frontline position, he still did not stubbornly continue to step forward. But in such a noisy and tense environment, he really did not have the leisure to sit still, so he walked quickly to the lookout in the center of the camp and looked at the direction where the two armies were fighting.

As soon as he stepped onto the lookout, Shi Xuan's face had changed greatly, and his fingers suddenly grabbed the fence on the lookout, and his knuckles were as white as his lips!

In the field of vision, the Jin army array was located a few miles outside the camp, and in front of the soldier array, there were a series of hundreds of stone cannons and bed crossbows.

On the two wings of this array, there are hundreds of chariots marked with each other, and the Jin soldiers on the chariots are each holding strong crossbows and bows, as long as there are any troops in the camp who dare to rush out and intend to harass the offensive of the armed camp, they will be shot by the Jin army on these chariots.

And at this moment, in the open space between each other, there were already many corpses of the rushing out of the army, each corpse was full of arrows, and the dense picture was shocking!

On the other hand, in the large camp of Xuan, the camp defense that was originally carefully laid out and built by Shi Xuan has been chiseled through the outermost two layers by the fierce attack of the Jin army's stone artillery and strong arrows.

And these two layers of defense, which are already full of ruins, are much more complete than being demolished by their own hands, and between those fragments and ruins, they are filled with the corpses of the Qiang army who have not had time to retreat, and those corpses are much more miserable, and there are very few people who can get all the corpses, and most of them have been smashed into a bloody mess of meat sauce by the powerful stone cannons!

Seeing this scene, Shi Xuan's eyeballs were bulging, the bloodshot in his eyes was sharply revealed, the Adam's apple was even more moving up and down, and his mouth was dry, so that his hands and feet were cold!

Although he supervised the battle at the forefront of the confrontation with the Jin army in Hebei for several years, during this period, the two sides never engaged in any decent battles, only the ranger of each other. Although the Jin army has the advantage of the water army, Bi Ji's small group of rangers is in the enemy territory, and flexible mobility is the most important, so this kind of offensive and defensive heavy weapons have never been used.

But now, the army dared to cross the Yellow River to attack the fortress, and even gathered heavy troops here, with a posture of not leaving, how could Wang Shi still retract his strength, naturally how strong the means, how strong the means to use!

Even in the past few years, there has never been a major war between the Qing and Yan, but it is also the most important theater in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and there is no shortage of strong weapons in the army. Shen Mu made up his mind to do a big job this time, and used the iron-blooded facts to teach the little cub of the Shi family how to behave with his tail between his legs, so the battalion and heavy weapons were pushed up together, which caused this earth-shattering and terrifying battle now!

Seeing that the battalion defense that he personally supervised and was full of confidence in was ruthlessly torn apart by the Jin army, and in this process, the two sides never had a short-handed fight, just the bombardment of stone cannons and bed crossbows, and in a very short period of time, the south of the camp was bombarded everywhere.

And the collapse of each layer of camp defense brought him almost skin-like pain in Shi Xuan's eyes! He stood on the lookout, his body swaying, and even his gums oozed blood from his clenched teeth without realizing it!

At this moment, Shi Xuan felt like crying without tears, his eyes circled around the Jin army camp without focus, wanting to find the location of the Jin army's marshal flag, and even more wanted to ask Shen Mu: Can't you get by? It was obviously a river defense fortress built by your Jin army, but now it has been bombed into scum, don't you want to think about how much it will cost you to rebuild it in the future?

If Shen Mu could hear Shi Xuan's heart at this moment, he would definitely have to laugh out loud. He had no intention of recovering the mill intact at all, so he focused on operating the mill before, because the bottom of the shaft was connected to the waterway of Jishui and Juyeze, which could directly transport Huaishang materials to the line along the river. But in addition, the fort does not have the geographical advantage of being a bottom-line fortress at all.

What's more, in Shen Mu's view, after this battle, the army will have to go north to the Yellow River to fight, and the Yellow River will no longer be used as the front line of the war between the two countries.

Therefore, he just wants to bully people, not only to bomb the camp to pieces, but also to bombard the army in the camp to death! When the Jin army is completely unscrupulous and vividly demonstrates the advantage of fighting at home, it is simply terrifying!

The Jin army launched an attack in the afternoon, and throughout the afternoon, the entire camp was in a situation where the Jin army was bombarded indiscriminately and there was no way to fight back.

At the beginning, they also organized several thug attacks, preparing to destroy the Jin army's heavy weapons array, which could not move flexibly. But the rain of arrows on the two wings of the array made all these attempts bankrupt!

This kind of humiliation and trampling can probably also give birth to habits in people's hearts, and in the evening when it was almost dark, the troops in the camp were almost numb, and there was no longer any counterattack of the situation, but they retreated a point every time they advanced with the roar and vibration. With such interest, the casualties were reduced, because the Jin army was just blindly bombarding, and there was no action to rush the camp at all.

Finally, the sun set, night fell, and after a long day of roaring and noise, the gray-faced soldiers of the Qiang army were buzzing in both ears, and their brains hurt from the noise. After hearing the roar gradually subside, these soldiers couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief in their hearts, and no matter what the situation was tomorrow, at least there would be a night of peace.

Smoke rose from the camp of the Jin army on the opposite side, and the soldiers in the camp suddenly felt hungry, this small half a day, they patronized and nervous, although the battle was like this, it was really impossible to say, but it has been so nervous that the whole body is tense, sweating like rain, and the physical wear and tear is not small.

So taking advantage of the rare relaxation, the camp also began to eat. But when they were halfway through the meal, they heard the sound of rustling in the wreckage all over the ground outside the camp, and when they looked up, they saw that many Jin soldiers had piled up firewood, and then ignited it, and after the fire rose, the roar of life sounded again!

"The people of the South and the South are really vicious......"

The soldiers of the Qiang Army who were eating with food in their hands were stunned for a moment, and then there was no shortage of people who cried bitterly. Such a sinister and vicious attack, it has been bombarded for so long during the day, and it is still necessary to attack at night!

Shi Xuan also felt dizzy at this time, his limbs were soft and he was lying directly beside the bonfire, after he groaned in pain a few times, his face suddenly changed, he tensed up on the spot, grabbed the soldiers beside him, and almost roared: "Long Xiang Army, Long Xiang Army...... Tell Shi Tao to return to help quickly! ”

This tactic of the southerners is really too arrogant, because the battalion is full of tens of thousands of soldiers who have no power to parry. But it's not that there is no way to crack it, as long as you rush to the front and destroy those heavy weapons, this means will be destroyed immediately.

It was not without such attempts in the battalion before, but the rain of arrows coordinated by the Jin army was too fierce, and most of them were killed and wounded before they could rush close. But the Long Xiang army can, the Long Xiang army has no shortage of heavy horses with armor, which can eliminate the suppression of the arrow rain to a minimum, as long as those instruments can be destroyed, the southerners want to play such a trick, and there is no means!

Hearing Shi Xuan's roar, Zhao Sheng, a eunuch sitting on the other side of the bonfire, suddenly showed an expression of his father and mother being ravaged, he knew that there was a Jin army on the way west of the Longxiang army. The Fenwu Army has also repeatedly swept Hebei to play a prestigious reputation, and the two sides collided, and the outcome was unknown.

Previously, Zhao Sheng concealed this news, not that he was bent on sending Long Xiang Army to death, after all, he was in the country, and he also had a certain confidence in the combat effectiveness of Long Xiang Army. In his opinion, even if he encounters the Jin people's martial arts army, the victory or defeat should be able to remain between five and five.

Therefore, he wanted to conceal this military information, one was that he was worried that Shi Tao would not dare to do it because he was afraid of the prestige of the Fenwu Army, and the other was to deliberately let Shi Tao suffer a secret loss that he was caught off guard. After all, since the Jin people's Fenwu army has arrived here, it can be seen that the target will inevitably be them, and they really need to divide their troops to share the pressure of the camp. In doing so, he kills two birds with one stone.

However, Zhao Sheng never thought that the Jin army outside the camp would use such an arrogant fighting style, forcing the camp to rely on the Long Xiang army to save his life at this moment. And calculating the time, the Long Xiang army should also encounter the Fenwu army from the direction of the slide, even if it can be defeated, it is impossible to have a victory in a short period of time.

And now, the Jin army outside the camp is putting on a night attack posture, and it seems that they have made up their minds not to let them live overnight in the land of Henan. When the Long Xiang Army returns, they will probably only be able to collect their corpses! As for whether they will be in the camp or floating corpses, the devil knows!

At this moment, Zhao Sheng didn't dare to reveal his concealment of military information, but grabbed Shi Xuan's arm and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, Your Highness, since the southerners have put on such a killing posture, how can they not have more precautions...... I'm afraid that the return of the Long Xiang Army will also be a powerless situation! Your Highness must not be lucky, you should still take advantage of the fact that the army is still complete, and the southern people and water army are powerless to block the big river at night, and the whole army should go north as soon as possible, and fight again in the coming day! ”

"Eunuch silence!"

When Shi Xuan heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows angrily, and kicked Zhao Sheng beside the bonfire. It's not that his heart of resistance is still tenacious, but he knows that if he really returns north, and even more treats the Longxiang army, which is regarded as the meat of his heart, is thrown in Henan, and there will definitely be no good end after he returns!

Zhao Sheng knew what he had done, so he naturally didn't dare to be lucky, and after being kicked down, he hurriedly crawled back, holding Shi Xuan's thighs and wailing with snot and tears, looking like a loyal slave.

Listening to Zhao Sheng's wail and the roar of the Jin army's attack, Shi Xuan was even more upset, and then he looked at the corner of the surviving camp and suddenly rushed out of thousands of soldiers, waving thin shirts and robes one by one, revealing their bodies, crawling forward on the ground after more than half of the run, and actually surrendered directly out of the camp!

Seeing this scene, Shi Xuan was even more shocked that his cold hairs stood up, he bent down and grabbed Zhao Sheng, and said with a distorted face: "Shi Tao is greedy and forgetful, and he is fighting outside to resist our army's orders, resulting in the destruction of the good situation, I just hate that I can't behead this idiot and enter the Lord, do you understand!" ”

Zhao Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, they rushed south this time and returned in vain, it is indeed necessary for a person of sufficient weight to hold up this huge black cauldron. So he nodded again and again, saying that he would definitely order the Lord to severely punish Shi Tao, a fool who tired the three armies!

made a decision in his heart, Shi Xuan did not hesitate, called his henchmen, quickly recited the names of several people, all of whom were the commanders of the army who were currently in the camp, and told his soldiers to summon these people to his side, as long as they unified their voice, this black cauldron would definitely be able to buckle Shi Tao's head!

After doing this, Shi Xuan led a part of the elite soldiers to quickly go to the dock in the depths of the camp, he wanted to get on the ship first!
