The sky was shining red, and although the sun had not yet risen from the ground, the light had already shrouded the world.

Seeing that the huge bamboo frame had reached a short distance, the iron hook in front was glowing with cold light, like the minions of a fierce tiger, ready to pounce on him at any time, Jia Jirong felt that he couldn't breathe.

"Slap, hit! Break this thing for me! ”

The soldiers defending the city also felt that their legs were weak, but the main family stood beside them, and still mustered up their courage and dragged the clap pole to the approaching bamboo frame.

The stone hanging from the clap pole hits the iron hook in front of the bamboo frame, making a crisp sound. However, it only made a sound, and it did not have any effect on the bamboo frame that was slowly approaching the city wall.

Seeing that the huge iron hook stretched out in front of him was already close to the city wall, Jia Jirong only felt a chill in his heart, and turned to the sergeant next to him and said, "Pour oil!" Ignition! ”

The sergeant took an iron spoon and scooped hot oil from the burning iron pot and poured it on the bamboo rack.

The iron hook was stretched out from the shelf, and although the iron hook had reached the top of the city wall, the shelf was still some distance away, and the oil poured on the city wall could not reach the shelf, and all of it was poured under the city.

There was no oil to ignite, and the torches thrown from the city could not ignite the bamboo frame covered with lead skin, and the torches rolled twice on the rack and fell to the bottom of the city.

Jia Jirong had a delusion, and time suddenly became fast and slow. Watching the sergeant next to him scoop oil and light the fire, he felt that time was slow, and when he saw the bamboo frame, he felt that time was too fast, and the iron hook reached the top of his head at once.

"Smack!"

The iron hook above his head reached the city wall, and suddenly swooped down on the wall.

I'm afraid that this hook weighs dozens of pounds, and the two soldiers can't dodge it. Hooked on the back. Pulled directly to the city walls. Flesh and blood flew in an instant. and it was torn to pieces in front of the multitude.

Seeing this meeting, the soldiers in the city panicked and held back.

Jia Jirong pulled out his saber with a "choked" sound, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Don't retreat, from now on, who dares to take a step back and cut it!" ”

It's a pity that no matter how majestic Jia Jirong is, it can't compare to the bloody scene. The soldiers still flinched. Look at me, I look at you, and you don't dare to come near the wall.

"I'll kill your whole family!"

Jia Jirong raised the steel knife, gritted his teeth, stepped forward, and cut off the head of a soldier with one sword.

Seeing that with red eyes, the beast-like Jia Jirong looked at him, and the local soldiers finally came to their senses, and finally puffed up their breath and stepped forward again.

"Wooden branches! Three people in one, push this shelf away together! ”

The huge iron hook in front was attached to the city wall, and the speed of the bamboo frame was noticeably accelerated.

This iron hook was used to grasp the city walls. How is it possible to rely on the manpower of dozens of people to compete? A group of native soldiers held poles and stepped forward to hold the bamboo frame. used all the strength to feed, and held back his face red, but he couldn't push the bamboo frame half a step, so he could only watch him get closer and closer.

The Song army on the other side of the bamboo frame suddenly let out a shout that soared into the sky, and the sound of "knock, knock, knock" was endless, and I didn't know whether it was the beat of drums or the footsteps of people, knocking on the hearts of the soldiers of Jiatong one by one.

Lu Fang is a soldier of Shaowu on Fujian Road, who was originally a miner in Yinchang, because he stayed in the mine so hard, he gave up his life to join the army. From Fujian Road, to Jinghu South Road, and then to Guangnan West Road, in the past ten years, he has transferred seven or eight state armies, achieved a head in the Xiang army, and retired into the sugar industry in Yongzhou. With his background in the sugar business, he is a small leader, a commander in the township soldiers, and a second commander in the township soldiers.

Zhang Rong was the main general of this siege, and it was Lu Fang who took the lead in the siege.

Holding the steel knife tightly in his hand, Lu Fang stared at the bamboo frame in front of him. He had ever been on this kind of scaffolding when he was working in the sugar cane business, but it was the first time he had seen such a huge scaffold, and he didn't know how effective it was.

"Leaning against the wall!"

There was a shout from the person pushing under the bamboo frame, and in just a moment, with a trumpet, the earth-shattering drum behind it sounded.

"Kill! Kill me—"

Lu Fang shouted violently, holding a steel knife and being the first to board the huge scaffold.

On the north-facing side, for the convenience of the soldiers who climbed the city, a slanted castle was made. The siege soldiers of the Song army gathered behind the bamboo frame ran all the way up, and when they reached the top of the bamboo frame, they saw the scrambled Jiatong native soldiers on the city wall. Seeing that there were not even a team of archers, the morale of the Song army was greatly boosted.

"Rush! Fifty times first! ”

Lu Fang shouted this in a hoarse voice, dragging the steel knife and rushing straight forward.

Jia Jirong looked at the Song army rushing towards the city like a tide above the shelf, and he was stunned for a while.

Naturally, there were archers on the city wall, but Jia Jirong didn't know when the Song army would rush up, so he didn't let them prepare, but it was too late at this time.

No matter how wide the top of the shelf is, it is only twenty or thirty steps, and the archers are preparing here, and before they can be wound, they are rushed in front of the opponent, and it is useless at all.

Secretly sighing, Jia Jirong turned around and shouted: "Line up, drive the Song army down!" ”

The width of the city wall is only five or six steps, where can you set up a position? And at this time, the local soldiers of Jiatong had lost their fighting spirit, and they just lined up in a chaotic formation.

Jia Jirong held a steel knife and said to a leader defending the city: "You, take a hundred soldiers and rush the Song army down!" If you lose, you don't have to come back! ”

The little leader shrunk his neck, and when he saw Jia Jirong looking at his cold ice blade-like eyes, he said stiffly: "Sons, can you keep the state city, in one fell swoop!" Kill the enemy with me! ”

After speaking, carrying a steel knife, he rushed towards the Song army with a mess of more than 100 native soldiers.

At this time, the sun finally poked out halfway from the top of the mountain, and the red light in the sky shone on the earth.

In this red light, the knives and guns in the hands of the soldiers were also smeared with a layer of blood-colored brilliance, and they were already covered with a brilliant blood-colored color.

"Kill—"

Lu Fang roared, and the steel knife in his hand slashed diagonally, cutting off half of the body of the Jiatong native soldier on the opposite side with one sword.

Like an iron cart crashing into an earthen wall, the Jiatong native soldiers only resisted for less than half a burnt of incense before they were completely defeated.

Jia Jirong's face was pale, knowing that the current situation was irreparable. Turning around, not only here in the south city, but also on the east and west sides have been supported by the bamboo frame of the Song army, and a steady stream of unstoppable tides are pouring up the city.

glanced at a few henchmen next to him, and Jia Jirong led them down the city secretly.

No matter how ambitious it is, at this time, it would be a fool to stick to it.

Surrounded by three queyi, the net was opened, knowing that this was a poison and had to be swallowed in order to survive. The A family has been in business for several generations, as long as there are people left, and if they can fight back, they will still be the king of this area.

Under the trees on the hillside, Tan Hu watched the soldiers on his side continue to climb the city, and said to Xu Ping, who was standing next to him watching the battle: "Official, I didn't expect this shelf to be so easy to use!" It didn't cost much, and Commander Lu led people to the city! ”

Xu Ping said with a smile: "Because it is such a small city, and the defenders of the city are such a waste as the Jia family, otherwise this method is useless." Not to mention a big city like Shenglong Mansion, it is the scale of Yongzhou City, and there is a moat several zhang wide outside, so this frame can't be approached. Besides, there is no moat, and if the people in the city have the courage to fight, they can send a decisive man out of the city, and they can block this frame casually. Taking a step back, if the defenders of the city are seriously prepared, not to mention our artillery, there are stone cannons that throw stones, and the mess of stones will fall down, and this shelf will also be scattered. ”

"When the officials think about it, there are so many ways, but Jia Yu is helpless!"

"Yes, there is no endless way for people to live, but if people die by themselves, then no one can save them." Looking at the already chaotic state city in front of him, Xu Ping was also infinitely emotional. "The A family has been operating here for several generations, two or three hundred years before and after, and the result is this scale. Over the years, if nothing else, how much wealth has been plundered from our Great Song Dynasty? Where did it go? People who have no long-term worries will have near-term worries, and they deserve to be defeated! ”

From the moment he decided to fight Jiadong, Xu Ping spent countless thoughts and thoughts, for fear that there would be a little bit of an accident that he didn't expect. It was last night, Xu Ping hadn't slept all night, and he discussed and discussed the siege process with several of his leaders, and rehearsed and rehearsed.

That's it, everyone feels that everything is safe, Xu Ping still feels relieved, he stood here before dawn, and his heart was up and down, for fear that there would be something he hadn't thought of.

On the other hand, what about Jiadong? From the last time Sang Yi led people to Langzhou, Xu Ping had already made it clear that he would not let Langzhou go, and they would only stick to the wall and clear the wilderness, and cowered in the state city. Even the reinforcements that were finally asked for from Jiaozhi did not want to try to stay on the banks of the Qianqi River, so they let them go to Luzhou to die.

Heaven is forgivable; and thou shalt not live. Since Xu Pingbing left the state, Jia Yu has simply died by himself step by step, and today, he has no choice but to die.

Jiatong Yamen, Jia Jirong carried a steel knife and rushed into the back yamen.

Jia Chenggui, who was sitting in the living room, held back his cough, looked at his eldest son with a pale face and blood-red eyes, and asked weakly: "Has the city been breached?" ”

"The son is incompetent, and it has affected Daddy and the whole family!"

Jia Jirong knelt on the ground with a thud and hung his head.

"What the hell is going on?" Jia Chenggui asked in a deep voice.

"The huge bamboo frame that the Song army got out of nowhere, the oil can't be broken, the fire can't be lit, and they directly set up the city, and they ran to the city! Dad! ”

Speaking of this, Jia Jirong, who had endured the grievances for a long time, burst into tears.

Jia Chenggui only felt dizzy for a while, and everything he saw was a little blurry. The centuries-old foundation of the A family is completely buried today.

Qiang calmed down, Jia Chenggui said: "The matter has come to this point, it's useless to talk more!" Didn't you say before that the Song army was around Sanque Yi, since they gave us a way to live, let's go. It is better to compromise and seek perfection than for the whole family to fall into the hands of the Song army. Outside of Langzhou, we still have land and industry. I think that the ancestors could come in from the outside, and one day we will be able to call back as well! ”

Hearing this, Jia Jirong raised his head and said hatefully: "Yes, one day, I will return to Langzhou!" What I lost from my hands, I will definitely get it back! (To be continued.) )
