Chapter 647 Chapter 602 Sad Killing and Long River of Blood (3)

Chapter 647 Chapter [-] Tragic Killing and Long River of Blood ([-])

In the 13th year of Jinghan, in late November, there was heavy snow in Bianliang.

Compared with the heavy snow, the Jurchen's siege is the biggest disaster facing the entire Bianliang, and even the entire Wu Dynasty.For several months, the Jurchen's sudden southward movement was like a catastrophe to the people of the Wu Dynasty. Zong Wang led less than 10 people to rampage and destroy hundreds of thousands of troops outside Bianliang City. In a sense, it seems to have taught the people of the Wu Dynasty a fierce lesson.

For a long time, under the appearance of singing and dancing, the people of Wu Dynasty did not pay attention to military affairs.The literati are in charge of the army, a lot of money is invested, and the thing that returns the most is the rampant use of various military theories.There are quite a few people who know how to fight battles, how to ensure logistics, and how to use conspiracies and schemes.It is also because of this that if you can't beat the Liao people, you can buy your record with money, but if you can't beat the Jin people, you can sow discord and drive away tigers and wolves.However, at this moment, everything is useless.

Wanyan Zongwang's attack crushed all the extravagant hopes of the military theorists during the past few months.Every time he sent troops, he was decisive and resolute. Once the founding army was heroic and bloody, it was enough to destroy almost all conspiracies and tricks, especially after launching the general attack on Bianliang City on November 22, the Jurchen army seemed to be on fire. Coming from the crush, every blow of Zong Wang was like cutting a knife firmly on Wu Chao's vital points, almost no child's play tricks.

However, what Bianliang City can compete with can only be the real accumulation at the national level over the past 200 years.

The literati governing the country have accumulated more than two hundred years, and what can be called the foundation has been accumulated dignifiedly. After all, there are still some things.Loyal to the emperor and patriotism, sacrificing one's life for righteousness, and driven by real interests, Bianliang City was finally able to mobilize a large number of people to join the city defense team like moths flying to a flame in a short period of time.

If Zongwang's every attack is aimed at Bianliang's vital points, as Bianliang, a bloated and weak behemoth, when it is almost impossible to dodge, the way to deal with it can only be compensated by a large number of human lives .From the night of the 22nd to the night of the 25th, when Zongwang cut the heaviest knife against Bianliang, it was just this night when hundreds of Jurchens broke into the city. In order to regain the top of the wall and clear the Jurchen soldiers who entered the city, they filled in the Xinsuanzao Gate The lives of soldiers and people nearby have exceeded 6000, and there are mountains of corpses and blood on the top of the city.

There is no time to think about the meaning of life and death. In such a battle, soldiers and a large number of mobilized masses are filled into the abyss of death one after another. It is hard to say whether people should be moved by it, reflect on it, and mourn it.It's just that at least at this moment, the few old people in charge of guarding the city are indeed carrying out their duties with an attitude of overdrawing their lives. Sitting on a chair with the number, after a long time, my hands were shaking and I couldn't even speak.

When a country loses its strength, it can only spend its life.

On the line of Bianliang City, withstood the huge consumption of Jurchens' lives, outside Bianliang City, many teams that had been beaten and frightened were hardly capable of breaking through, and even had the courage to face the Jurchen army. Not much anymore.However, when it was dark on the 25th day, the battle that broke out suddenly in the Jurchen Moutuogang Camp was also resolute and fierce. , This sudden attack by more than 30 people was so resolute and fierce that it was shocking.

At the same time that Zongwang led the army to slash the knife heavily at Bianliang City, the snoopers who were lurking in the dark finally made their move, and swung an equally resolute blow to the Jurchen's back!

From the appearance of these 4000 men, the beginning of the heavy cavalry was a strong blow to the Jurchen who stayed behind in Moutuogang.This completely different style from the ordinary Wu Dynasty army made the Jurchen army a little bit astonished, but they were not scared by it.Even though they suffered a certain degree of casualties, the Jurchen army, under the excellent command of the general, was still dealing with the incoming Wu Dynasty troops outside Moutuogang.

The attacking Wu Dynasty army quickly launched an attack on the outer wall of the camp at Moutuogang with the same resolute attitude.After circling each other for a while, the two light cavalry outside the camp collided again.

At the same time, the heavy cavalry and infantry who stopped in front of Moutuogang charged towards the Jurchen camp, and in the blink of an eye, the whole battle was brought to a climax.

In the current quantitative comparison, more than 100 heavy cavalry is definitely a huge strategic advantage.It's not that they cannot be restrained, but this kind of arms piled up with a large amount of strategic resources, if they want to compete in a head-on confrontation, they can only have a large amount of resources and lives.Jurchen cavalry are basically light cavalry, that is because the heavy cavalry is used to attack the enemy and must be rescued. If it is in the wilderness, the light cavalry can easily consume the heavy cavalry, but at the moment, the more than 1000 infantry of Pulu have become Bear the brunt of the victims.

In the rear camp, it is true that bows and arrows can be used to support them, but the threat of bows and arrows to heavy cavalry is minimal. Even to infantry, if the opponent starts to ignore casualties, the casualties that bows and arrows can cause will never be unbearable for a while.

In front of Moutuogang, iron hoofs lined up in a row, rolling towards them like thunder, and behind, nearly two thousand infantrymen began to charge with shouts.In the formation in front of the camp, Pu Lu turned his head to look at the speed on the camp wall, but the order he received was almost desperate. He turned his head and shouted in a deep voice: "Guard it for me!" The Jurchen infantry under his command looked at the The black heavy cavalry that pushed over like a huge wall turned paler than the snow at night.At the same time, the rear camp gates began to open, and the last [-] light cavalry in the camp rushed out brazenly. He wanted to bypass the heavy cavalry and attack the rear of the infantry!

On the other side, nearly [-] cavalry entangled and fought, sweeping the battle line to this side!

In the heavy snowfall, the battle lines were clapped together like a sea tide.Waves of blood surged out, and the equally strong Jurchen cavalry tried to avoid the heavy cavalry and tear apart the opponent's weak parts. However, at this moment, even the relatively weak light cavalry and infantry had considerable will to fight. The young general led [-] infantry, and used long spears, swords and shields to meet the Jurchen light cavalry rushing towards him. At the same time, he tried to merge with his own cavalry to squeeze the space of the Jurchen cavalry. In front, Han Jing and others led the heavy cavalry. Pulu's infantry formation was crushed in the waves of blood.At a certain moment, he looked into the sky behind the wall of the Moutuogang camp.

Shu Lie turned around quickly.

There seemed to be noise and fighting sounds.

Behind the camp, flames and columns of smoke rose.

"Brothers—" In the snowstorm in front of the camp, someone shouted excitedly and hysterically, in a palpitating madness, "Follow me—follow me to kill—"

"Wow--"

At this moment, it was like a pot of old soup that was finally boiled. The crazy atmosphere that should have belonged to when the Jurchen army defeated the enemy on weekdays reappeared in this boiling and bloody fierce battle.

In the previous period, although the fighting spirit was firm, Qingqi was still not sophisticated enough to fight. At this moment, he rushed forward like a pack of wolves, and in the infantry formation, the originally young but calm Yue Fei was also excited. , as if drinking alcohol, his eyes were red, he held a long gun, and laughed loudly: "Follow me to kill--" organized the gun forest to push fiercely towards the front of the cavalry, and the point of the gun pierced The moment he entered the body of the war horse, what flashed in his mind was the figure of the old man Zhou Tong who died for assassinating Zong Han, his master...

There seemed to be flames exploding in the knotted muscles of the hands. The Jurchen cavalry hesitated for a moment, and the entire body of the horse and the man was lifted up by the young general and the people around him. Suddenly, the horse neighed and the snow rolled , The thick blood also sprayed the soldiers in front all over their heads and bodies.Around, or horses fell down, or people were rushed away, countless killings became intense...

Not long after, as the darkness fell, the figures of Bai Yudao crossed the frozen lake and went straight to the rear of the Jurchen camp.

Although they focused on defending the front of the camp, the Jurchen's defense on the three sides around the lake was not lax.Even before the lake surface froze, the Jurchens had strong surveillance in these directions, and after it froze, they stepped up their patrols. There were also watchtowers inside the towering camp walls, responsible for monitoring the nearby lake surface.

However, at a time like this, when the snow is falling, the night is falling, and the soldiers are used to the calm situation for several months, there are still blind spots after all.

A hole in the ice was dug in the distance, they quietly entered the water, and several white-clothed men who appeared silently on the shore quickly cut the throats of three patrolling Jurchen soldiers. They changed into the clothes of Jurchen soldiers and pushed the bodies. After entering the water, he took out the oilcloth-wrapped crossbow and rope from his arms, shot and killed the Jurchen soldiers on the watchtower behind the nearby camp wall, and then climbed up to replace them.

More than a hundred men in white sneaked into the Jurchen camp in a few moments.

The group of people trained in Luliang Mountain have already undergone a lot of training in sneaking, sabotage, invisibility, beheading, etc. In a sense, there are many green forest masters who are good at such actions, but Most are disorganized and undisciplined, preferring to work alone.Ning Yi has a master like Lu Hongti as an advisor, and after systematizing everything, it will become the embryonic form of the special forces at this time. This time, the elites are out, and Hongti leads the team. In a blink of an eye, the Jurchen camp was paralyzed Perimeter defense in the rear.

If in normal times, most of the Jurchen troops were stationed here, it would be basically impossible to do such an action, but this time, nearly five thousand Jurchen troops had already left the gate of the camp and were fighting fiercely with Qin Shaoqian and others outside. Defense is the most important thing. After Qin Shaoqian and others launched a firm attitude to storm the camp, Shu Liesu and others wished to call all the craftsmen to come in handy. The defensive force that can be allocated to the rear is really not much up.

After all, if it weren't for Ning Yi, even if other people organized a large number of soldiers, it would be impossible to sneak in silently, and even if one or two green forest masters tried their best to sneak in, it basically didn't make much sense.

They then found the warehouse where the Jurchens hoarded grain and grass. When Hongti led people to sneak into it, Ning Yi led several people back and found the barracks where the Jurchens held the Han captives.The defense here is quite weak. They killed several guard soldiers. Ning Yi opened the big lock of the camp gate and threw the Jurchen's body and weapons in front of these captives who had been tortured for a long time.

"Listen outside, the Jurchens are going to attack Bianliang. The imperial army is attacking here. If you can still move, get your weapons, and then follow me to kill people and get more weapons! Otherwise, you will die."

At this time, there were thousands of prisoners locked in the camp by the Jurchens. The first batch of prisoners were still hesitating, but Ning Yi ignored them. He took out the bamboo tubes filled with kerosene in his clothes and poured them around, and then directly Light a fire in the barracks.

The entire camp was in chaos in an instant.On the other side, a raging fire ignited in Jurchen's grain and grass warehouses, and small-scale fighting began to appear. When Wanyan's mother led a few elite soldiers to kill, half of the camp had already exploded. In the process, the fire has already begun to burn and spread, and most of the Han captives have been released, or organized desperate killings, or fled in all directions. There are more than 100 people mixed among them, how can these things be left to them.

A quarter of an hour later, the main entrance of the Moutuogang camp fell, and blood flowed into rivers inside and outside the camp...

****************

It was already late at night, Bianliang City, Xin Suanzao Gate, calmed down a little.

Shi Shi stood in front of the pile of burnt ruins, and the embers of the fire drifted past her eyes.

Her face was covered with dust, her hair was a little curly from burning, and there were vague traces of water on her face. It was unknown whether the snowflakes had melted on her face, or it was caused by crying.The footsteps below him also became staggering.

After half a night of fighting, the Jurchens retreated temporarily.Under the majestic city wall near Xinsuanzao Gate, people began to treat the wounded with all their strength and collect the corpses. The bloody smell and burnt smell were all around.

Many, many people died.

She feels so tired...

Li Yun hurried over from the building, and when he found her, she was sitting in a corner under the city wall, in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking, her appearance was sad, her eyes were dull, and even a shoe on her foot was gone. Li Yun was so frightened that she thought she had been raped, but luckily she didn't.

"I can't do it anymore, I'm so tired, I'm so tired..." She sobbed in a low voice, and said, "I want to take a break...I'm so tired..."

Li Yun squatted down and hugged her sadly...

……

Mou Tuogang.

The fighting has stopped, there is blood everywhere, and there are many traces of being burned by flames.

Shu Liesu held a long sword and stood on the height of the ruins. The long sword was covered with blood. Below, a pile of flames were still burning, illuminating his face flickering.

"Do you know who it is?"

He asked so in his mouth.

The Han captive who was tied and pushed to the front cried loudly and shook his head desperately.

"Forgive me..."

Shu Lie quickly kicked the man out of the blazing fire pit, and then, the most miserable screams rang out.

"Do you know! It's those people who killed you! You are looking for death—"

His appearance was originally handsome and masculine, but now he has become distorted and fierce. The sound resounded above the camp, and then someone was pushed down.

In the previous battle, as the back of the camp was burned, the more than 4000 soldiers of the Wu Dynasty in the front broke out with the most amazing fighting power, directly defeating the Jurchen fighters outside the camp, and even captured the camp gate in turn.However, if you really measure the strength in your hands, the total number of people on Shu Liesu's side is tens of thousands. It is impossible for the opponent to defeat the Jurchen cavalry to achieve the effect of complete annihilation, but the morale is temporarily high and they have the upper hand.In real comparison, the power in Shu Lie Su's hand is still superior.

But this time, it was not a duel on the battlefield.

The moment he saw the grain and grass depot ignite, Shu Liesu knew that he had lost.

The camp became chaotic during the fierce fighting. All the prisoners who were originally detained in the camp were released, and the Wu Dynasty soldiers who sneaked into the camp mixed with them. In the end, those Wu Dynasty soldiers stood guard at the gate of the camp for a long time, saving About a third of the Han captives left.Most of these Han captives were weak, and many of them were women. After they left, Talai gathered all the cavalry—except for the wounded, there were about 200 able to fight—and proposed to Shu Lie to follow behind. Chasing after the tail, but Shu Liesu knew that this was meaningless. If the other party had arranged an ambush, they might lose more than [-] people in their hands.

"Send scouts to follow them and see who they are," he ordered.

Many of the remaining Han captives in the camp had been killed in the chaos, and about a third of them survived. With the current state of mind, Shu Liesu didn't want to keep any of them, and was going to kill them all.

"If you don't resist, you won't die. You were all killed by those Wu Dynasty people."

So saying, he killed them all.

At the same time, in the Jurchen Camp outside Bianliang City, Zong Wang, who had failed to attack the city, had already heard the whole process of the attack on Moutuogang. He sat in his seat and was eerily quiet.

At this moment, someone finally made a move and stabbed him in the vitals.

"How much food and grass are there?"

"No, I don't know the exact number. The camp is still counting, and not all of them have been burned. There are always... there are still some..." The people who came to report the news were already frightened by the appearance of the commander in front of them.

"Who did it?"

"Don't know. Already following them."

"Where's Pharmacist Guo?"

"Uh... General Guo went to find the Western Army..." Zong Wang knew about it, and the scouts didn't know if they were asking him.

"I mean, why hasn't he made a move for so long. Come on, send an order to Guo Yaoshi, let him quickly defeat the Western Army! Grab their food and grass. If you find these people again, I will tear him to pieces " He took a breath, "Fortify the walls and clear the fields, burn food, and destroy the Yellow River...I think I know who he is..."

In the game of high-level confrontation, the emperor of the Wu Dynasty was an idiot. At this time, the old men who were fighting against him in Bianliang City could only say that they worked hard to block his attack. Put pressure on him, only this time, he felt a little pain.

4000 people...

Defeated Shu Lie Speed...

Thinking of this, he punched the table in front of him.

"...Tomorrow, continue to attack the city!"

……

In the dark night, in the wind and snow, there is a long line.

There were quite a few wounded soldiers, and behind them were many ragged and trembling civilians, all of whom were rescued captives. But when it comes to the whole team, the morale of this team is still extremely high, because they just defeated the strongest man in the world. Army - well, so to speak, anyway.

A scout on horseback came chasing after him. The scout was wounded and rolled off his horse, with a human head in his hand.The warriors in the team who are proficient in knife wounds and bruises hurried over to help him bandage.

"The Jurchen scouts have been following behind, I will kill one, but after a while, cough... I'm afraid I can't drive them away..."

"They won't let us go..." Ning Yi looked back at the distance of the wind and snow. In fact, it was pitch black everywhere. Settle down in that town. Release those who can investigate, on the one hand, practice with them, on the other hand, keep an eye on the situation of Guo Yaoshi and Bianliang, when they come to attack us, we will run away."

He paused, and after a while, he asked: "Has the news been passed to Bianliang?"

……

Waking up the next morning, Shishi heard the news...
