Chapter 379: The Day of the Decisive Battle (I)
On the other side, Hu Ben led 20,000 male troops, came in a grand manner, only to see swords and guns like a forest, banners covering the sun, the soldiers and horses of each department are well-equipped, murderous, zaijian that huge weapons, including ladder trucks, building vehicles, catapults, etc. The Jin army has always paid attention to the development of weapons, these weapons have been improved, and some of them are made of steel, at first glance, it looks like an army of steel, so imposing.
Listening to the earth-shattering sounds, the barbarian soldiers in the city all changed color. Yelu Yahu stood against the wind, looking at the approaching Jin army, he was not afraid, but a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
After a while, the Jin army stopped and set up a position. He took the knife and flew out of the horse, until he stopped his horse hundreds of zhang away outside the city, raised his knife and pointed at the city, and shouted: "I am the king of Dajin Liao!" Where is the dragon barbarian, teach him to come out and talk to me!! ”
When Yelu Yahu heard this, he smiled coldly, and on the top of the city, he drew his sword and angrily pointed at the book and scolded: "My lord is a hero, how can you be a dog thief who will see you and retreat quickly, otherwise I will be blamed for killing you and other gold thieves!" ”
“hahahaha~~!! I thought who was it, who dared to speak so loudly, it turned out to be you, the lost dog, pity your father's name, in order to save the Great Liao, but not hesitate to sacrifice, but you are a son but voted under the command of the Song people, under the nine springs, I am afraid that I will die without turning a blind eye!! ”
The Liao generals under the command of Yelu Yahu were all angry when they heard this, and they all scolded, their blood boiled, and they all wanted to hack the book to death with a knife, and crush the bones and scatter ashes!!
But he was unmoved, squinting at the wild owl and coldly looking at the Yeluya tiger on his head. Yeluyahu's face was cold, and he snorted coldly, and actually taught to launch. The face of the two places was hundreds of zhang away, and even an ordinary giant crossbow might not be able to shoot it. At this moment, the left side first heard a thunderous sound of 'boom', and the owl was stunned, only to realize that it was a thunder cannon, although the range of the general thunder cannon is only a hundred zhang, and it is reasonable to not reach it. But the power of the thunder cannon is huge, once it is affected, I am afraid that if I don't die, I will be disabled, and I don't have time to think about it, so I hurriedly turned my horse and ran.
In an instant, I saw a place of dust rising and flames soaring into the sky. The thunder cannon on the city shot nearly 15 or 60 zhang, although it was still far away from the city, but listening to the order, it had scared the city enough, and there was a piece of earth and rock flying behind it, hitting the city itself.
Immediately afterward, there were two more 'boom' sounds. Thunder artillery was fired from the city again, and Liduo saw it clearly, and hurriedly ordered the troops of the front army to respond.
I saw that under the repeated bombardment of thunder and artillery, thick smoke rose outside the city, and suddenly a burst of horses' hooves suddenly sounded. As soon as those golden soldiers arrived in front of the army itself, they saw a group of more than a thousand cavalry coming to kill them. The first general, holding a halberd, has a fierce face and a full beard, like a legendary evil ghost, brazenly killing.
"The eldest prince of the golden dog is gone, and your grandfather is here to take your life!!"
Hearing the loud cheers, he hurriedly looked back, and saw that Hu Yantong was approaching, and his face couldn't help but change. Fortunately, two golden generals arrived in time, and each made weapons resist Huyantong. Hu Yantong roared angrily, slashed and slashed with his halberd, and killed the two generals off his horse in a few moments. In an instant, Huo Rui, who came from behind, and a group of barbarian cavalry, as well as the soldiers and horses of the Jin people, were killed together, and the two armies were mixed together.
At the same time, the two men collided with their halberds and fought fiercely. After a while, Huo Rui killed, twisted two big black hammers and smashed them closely, he shouted loudly, shook his spirit, and was extremely brave with one enemy and two, and Jin Ren's anger was shocked, although he was caught off guard by being killed at first, but he was gradually able to stabilize his position.
“hahahaha!! Joyfully!!! You dog thief still have some skills!! ”
Although the halberd in Hu Yantong's hand was swinged, he was excited and screamed. Huo Rui was in a hurry, and shouted loudly: "Brother Huyan, don't talk to this guy more, you take people, I take horses!" If this person is caught, it will be a great achievement!! ”
As Huo Rui finished drinking, the two of them suddenly attacked, and they slaughtered at the book like two fierce beasts. The three of them were killed like a marquee. It was difficult for soldiers on both sides to get close to each other. Although the book is good, Huo Rui and Hu Yantong cooperate seamlessly with one knife and two hammers, and they are both horses and people. It was difficult to deal with it for a while, and the danger was full of dangers, and the battle robes on his body were torn. Fortunately, a golden man killed to block it, and he had a chance to breathe, and hurriedly reined in his horse and retreated, and before a while, he heard a miserable scream, and then two angry shouts erupted, and when he looked back, the two giants seemed to kill him again.
"Maniac!!" He scolded in his heart, didn't care about face, and quickly fled. This time, it was the turn of the barbarian army to shake their morale, and they fought hard, all of them were fierce and brave, and the Jin people were defeated and retreated, and they overwhelmed the momentum of the Jin people in one fell swoop.
At this moment, the horn of Mingjin suddenly sounded in the city, Huo Rui saw Huyantong rushing all the way, shouting endlessly, and he was very excited, afraid that he would go deep alone, so he hurriedly shouted: "Brother Huyan, the horn has risen, quickly withdraw with me!" ”
When Hu Yantong heard this, he immediately pulled out his horse and turned around, leading the troops to turn sideways and rush away. The Jin people's spirit has been frustrated, and they have been killed like a wave. When he was young, the sound of killing suddenly rolled up like a flood tide, and it turned out that most of the people of Jin rushed to the rescue, but Hu Yantong had already led the troops to break through, and he didn't expect the soldiers to laugh and scold together.
When many Jin soldiers heard this, they were very angry, and they wanted to lead their soldiers and horses to fight with these barbarian bandits, and they roared angrily, and their murderous aura was like boiling for a while. At this time, he rushed to the horse, shouted angrily at the generals, and ordered the withdrawal of the army.
On the other side, at the head of the city, Yeluyahu had his eyes focused. At this moment, the army in the city is already waiting, and the hundreds of earth-shaking thunders in the city are also targeted, just waiting for the golden thief to kill it in a big way and give it a fatal blow. Unbeknownst to him, the Jin army slowly began to retreat, with no intention of attacking.
Yelu Yahu saw it clearly, couldn't help clenching his fists, and said, "Hmph!" It seems that the eldest prince of this golden dog also has some skills!! ”
Two days later, under the mouth of the basin, the strong smell of blood made people want to be disgusting, there were countless stumps and broken blades around, and corpses could be seen everywhere, which showed how fierce the battle was.
It is said that in the past two days, Han Shizhong has been attacking endlessly. Fortunately, Luo Yanqing, Yu Hualong and other generals fought desperately, and although Niu Gao was the main general, he must go forward in every battle, so the barbarian army still withstood the crazy attack of the Song army. It's just that after two days of repeated fierce battles, Luo Yanqing, Yu Hualong and others were all injured a lot. In today's fierce battle until dusk, the position under the mountain was broken by the Song army, Niu Gao rose up to fight, and Huang Jian Company transferred the soldiers on the mountain to come to help. The two armies fought until the first shift at night, when Han Shizhong saw that it was dark and saw that the barbarians were fighting desperately, so he ordered the withdrawal of the army. The barbarian army also took advantage of this to recapture the position at the foot of the mountain, but many fences and antlers were destroyed by the Song army. Niu Gao was also hit in the back by an arrow in the battle of suitable talents.
In the night, the moans and screams of pain that came from the positions of the two armies were almost endless. In the main tent at the top of the basin mouth, Niu Gao had bandaged his wounds, stared wide-eyed, gritted his teeth, but he couldn't speak, and the soldiers in the tent were all depressed and tired. There have been too many casualties in the past two days, and the Dragon Barbarian Rebel Army has never tried to have so many casualties since it was formed.
At this moment, suddenly a general rushed into the tent, knelt on one knee and reported, or was too ecstatic, and actually left tears of excitement: "Report~~!! The lord is he~~!! The lord is coming!! ”
As soon as these words came out, it was like in the endless darkness, a ray of light burst in, dispelling all the darkness.
"Quick!! Take me and wait to meet the lord!! Huang Secret, with a pale face, got up in a hurry, only to see that his mouth was dry and his lips were cracked, and his eyes were black, and he had not slept for two days and two nights in order to think about a plan.
It's no wonder that today's battle situation under the basin is like a dead end, Han Shizhong is mainly anti-guest, and the army under his command is in the village, and he knows the movements on the village well. At present, the barbarian army can only defend the fortress, and any strategy seems to be difficult to implement.
It's just that at this moment, Deng Yun's arrival seems to bring hope to everyone, and everyone is in a hurry, not long after leaving the tent, only to hear the sound of a horse's roar, a fast shadow suddenly came, suddenly stopped for a moment, a dust, and immediately the man turned down, saw everyone and chuckled: "Brothers have worked hard." I'll just take care of the rest. ”
Just this simple sentence made the big stone in everyone's hearts let go in an instant. Everyone was excited, led by Niu Gao, knelt down on one knee in unison, and said, "The last general has seen the lord!" ”
When it is less, it is within the main account. Deng Yun, who was sitting in the chief seat, had a solemn face, and his eyes flashed with cold fierceness. Huang Jingyi is explaining the current battle situation with Deng Yun, as well as the casualties of the two armies. After nearly half a month of fierce fighting, Han Shizhong's 100,000-strong army suffered nearly 30,000 casualties. Of the 30,000 soldiers of the self-army, nearly 10,000 were killed or wounded, and Niu Gao, Luo Yanqing, Yu Hualong and other important generals were wounded. On the contrary, although the generals of the Song soldiers were also killed and wounded by dozens, except for Liu Bao and Ruan Liang, Han Shizhong's relatives and subordinates were injured, and Su De, Dong Min, Chen Bucket and other generals were all safe. Han Shizhong distributed all those remnants to his subordinates, and the Song army became more united and sharp.
After hearing this, Deng Yun let out a long sigh and said: "When I came, I had already seen the surrounding battlefield situation, although I knew that this repeated battle must be fierce, but I didn't expect so many people to be killed and injured. Compared with the Song army, our army has very few troops, and it is tired of fighting for days and days, and today the Song army will have the opportunity to break through the position under the mountain. On the contrary, there are many Song soldiers, and they can be divided into several large armies to attack again and again, maintain their military spirit, and sooner or later, Tianpenkou will undoubtedly be broken! ”
As soon as Deng Yun said this, everyone in the tent did not change color. Deng Yundao's eyes narrowed, and he secretly slandered: "This Liang Hongyu is really terrifying, no wonder in history it was able to defeat that golden vulture on the bank of the Yellow River!" ”
"So it was. The lord can quickly return to Yanjing to transfer money to prepare for war. I'm waiting here to delay Song Jun! Huang was obedient and hurriedly got up and said. Although Niu Gao and other generals are unwilling, they all know that this is the best way to do this. Although Yanjing was well prepared, it still needed a certain amount of time to prepare for the battle in order to fight with the Song army in the most haode state.
Deng Yun was obedient, and his face sank and said, "Don't be in a hurry about this matter first." Tomorrow, I will give you a clear answer. Now, I would like to ask you brothers to come back and rest after listening to the transfer. Tomorrow I will fight with you! ”
As soon as Deng Yun said this, Niu Gao and the others felt as if there was a fire burning in their stomachs, and they shouted angrily. Huang Jingjing saw that everyone's demeanor changed sharply and their morale was high, and after opening his mouth, he still withdrew his words of persuasion.
Deng Yun smiled, looked around at everyone, and slowly began to transfer orders.
That night, when it was time for the third watch, the drums were suddenly beating, and the sound of killing was everywhere. At the mouth of the basin, the fire immediately burst out, and there was a panic and exclamation.
The sound of drums and shouts continued for a while, but the Song soldiers did not come to fight, and soon dispersed. After that, it was the fifth watch, and the drums and shouts of killing suddenly started again. At this time, the sky had gradually turned white, and there was a panic cry in the mouth of the basin.
As the sun rises, a new day has finally arrived. In the camp of the Song army, the Song soldiers had already begun to eat, Han Shizhong's spirit was shining this day, looking at the walled city on the basin that day, the tiger's eyes widened, and he muttered: "I will definitely capture this place today!" ”
