The 294th chapter siege is true
"Is Zhongshan lost?" This sudden incident made Gao Chong a little confused. In his impression, Zhongshan should be as solid as a god. Jingxing he occupied again, cut off the connection between the Jin people from the east and west. Without the reinforcements of the Western Route Army, it would be impossible for him to be defeated by the enemy from both sides and fall into a huge base with his back on the Taihang Mountains as in history. Sooner or later he developed it into a huge base with his back on the Taihang Mountains.
Why was Zhongshan suddenly lost?
"How about Shizhong, Niu Gao, Zhang Xian and others?" Compared to Zhongshan's fall, Gao Chong cared more about the safety of Han Shizhong and others, and he anxiously asked the messenger.
"The commander of the city, all the adults have withdrawn from Zhending, and only Commander Ye Shou died for the country."
Gao Chong's face darkened and he said, "Notify Madam Qiu Ying about this matter. Tell Cao Ning and Wang Heng that it will be decided to go with me."
"Yes!" The messenger agreed and went down to find Cao Ning and Wang Heng of the personal guards. Gao Chong quickly put his helmets and armor on his arms, and then left Baodu Mountain.
When they arrived at Zhending, Han Shizhong and others quickly came out. Han Shizhong's face turned slightly red and he walked forward: "Commander, the general of the Ministry is guilty, lost Zhongshan, and injured General Ye Shou."
Gao Chong waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I have understood clearly. It is not your fault that you lost Zhongshan, and Ye Shou died as a matter of fact. But everyone should take it as a warning. The enemy is very powerful and must not be taken lightly."
"Thank you, commander!" Han Shizhong and others stood up. This scene was seen by Liu Ziyu who came out. This strange scene surprised him a little. Han Shizhong was a guard in Zhongshan and had no subordinate relationship with the Divine Guards, and he and Gao Chong are both deputy marshals of the West Road of Hebei. Why should he respect Gao Chong so much?
Liu Ziyi knew the mystery, but he did not explain it to his elder brother. He stepped forward and said, "Since the command has arrived, let's not stand at the door, just talk inside!"
Everyone agreed and entered the yamen of Zhending Mansion together. Liu Ziyu and Chen Wei were one of them, and Gao Chong and Li Miao were below them.
Liu Ziyu and Chen Wei are both prefects, half a level taller than Gao Chong, the prefect. Li Miao next to them is also prefect. However, Liu Ziyu, the youngest among them, is also in his 0s. He followed his father and fought in the military for more than ten years.
Seeing Gao Chong's slightly tender face, the three of them kept sighing. And look down, these generals in the army are not Gao Chong's subordinates? He is not only the governor of Xi'an Prefecture, but his official position is almost the same as theirs. He also has the troops of the Shenwei Army and the Zhenrong Army; there are so many generals who can be enemies of ten thousand people. Could it be that we are really old?
Especially Chen Gou, who had just lost Zhongshan, was inevitably a little uncomfortable and kept sighing.
Li Miao advised: "Xianbo, don't complain about yourself. If you lose Zhongshan, I once lost Zhending. Now is not the time to regret it. Once Zhongshan is lost, the enemy army will immediately go south. Zhending is the first to be affected. We must think of another solution."
Chen Go nodded and said, "No, thank you Lord Li for your reminder. Do you have any good ideas?"
Liu Ziyu said in the army: "Please also ask Lord Chen to introduce the situation of the enemy first. We can only arrange our strategies if we know our enemies."
"Let Liangchen introduce it! I was only responsible for the logistics support at the beginning, and Liangchen and Boyuan were responsible for the foreign battle."
Han Shizhong said politely: "My lords, the first time that the Jin people besieged Zhongshan was the 0,000 army of Wanyan Zongxian. In the past few months of battle, we wiped out nearly 10,000 people, but most of the losses were the surrendered Song and Bohai Army, and the Jin people suffered little casualties.
Later, he joined Wanyan Zongwang's 80,000 army. Most of the eight kings were Jin people, with only a few Song people and Bohai people.
Now the enemy is no less than 100,000, and the proportion of the gold men is very high, and it has strong combat power. It should not be underestimated.
Moreover, during this sneak attack, we found a large number of thunders in the enemy camp. Fortunately, these thunders are average and not much stronger than what we produced before, and are very different from what we are using now."
"Booming the sky thunder?" These people have already seen the power of this kind of treasure, so they are all a little worried.
Gao Chong smiled slightly and said, "I don't think there is no need to worry too much about this thunder. The Jin people took down countless cities such as Yanshan and Daming in the Song Dynasty. Many of them were abandoned and left the reserves to the enemy. I felt strange if they didn't have firearms?"
Everyone agreed, and Liu Ziyu said, "The enemy's army of 100,000 is coming to the city. What are the good ways for everyone?"
Everyone started to discuss it with each word. Han Shizhong and Niu Gao had the most experience in fighting with the enemy. Han Shizhong said: "Sir, the enemy is numerous, and the strength of the army is obviously higher than that of us. It is stupid to fight against the enemy. I think we should defend the city with the death of Zhending City.
Zhending is the capital of Hebei West Road, taller than Zhongshan, and has defenses at the level of urncheng. It will definitely allow the Jin people to return in a defeat."
Liu Ziyu smiled and said, "Okay! I have any worries about having a general like Liangchen. Please help me keep the true concentration."
"Mr. Liu has been in the military for a long time and is a role model for us. I am really ashamed of being the last general. Besides, I am even more afraid to be arrogant," Han Shizhong quickly refused.
Gao Chong smiled and said, "Don't look at me, I think Liangchen is right. Let's compete with the Jin people around Zhending City. During this period, Brother Ziyu prepared a lot of crossbows, and we rely on these crossbows and tall city walls to resist the Jin people.
Zhending City is handed over to Brother Ziyu and Liangchen. I will take people to cruising around and destroy the Jin people's supplies, so that they can know that our Song Dynasty is not so easy to bully."
Everyone nodded constantly when they heard this, and Liu Ziyu said, "Brother Gao must be careful. If you can kill, kill. If you can't kill, leave. Never let the enemy catch it."
Liu Ziyi also reminded him: "Please pay attention to the enemy troops on the West Road. If they come to help, it will be a bad thing."
Gao Chong laughed and said, "Don't worry, Ziyi. I have made arrangements long ago. The 8,000 Zhenrong Army is now Zhe Yanzhi, the son of Zhe Keke, who is leading the garrison to Jingxing. Wuxian also led the Divine Guards to block Tumen Pass. I am afraid that they will not come, so when they come, they will leave without returning!"
Liu Ziyu slapped the table and said, "Okay! We will fight the enemy in Zhending."
Gao Chong immediately took someone to say goodbye. He asked Han Shizhong and Niu Gao to stay to help defend the city, and hurriedly left with him.
When he returned to Baodu Mountain, he arranged for all the irrelevant people on the mountain, including Li, Yang Zhenniang, Zhao Fujin, etc. to return to Baibu and asked Wuxian and Lu Junyi to garrison here in person; at the same time, the navy began to blockade the Hutuo River.
"Sir, I finally think of our navy." Li Jun laughed loudly after hearing this. The Tong brothers and the four dragons of Taihu were also ready to go.
"Your mission is to assist us in attacking the enemy! Block the Hutuo River for me, and no enemy is allowed to enter the mountains. At the same time, we can keep our retreat. Let's make good use of the golden man."
After receiving the order, everyone started to prepare. The Jin people didn't give them much time and arrived at Zhending City in less than two days.
The city wall of Zhengding was four or five meters high, much higher than Zhongshan; Wanyan Zongwang frowned. He arranged for his subordinates to go up and call for battle with the Song people.
As he thought, the Song people above did not respond at all. No one came out to fight.
Although Wanyan Zongwang was disappointed, he was not too disappointed. He waved his hand and said, "Ta Lai, go up and try the real defense."
Wanyan Chang agreed, and led his ten thousand Jin soldiers, holding shields, and pushing the siege equipment slowly forward.
The city was quiet in Zhending, like a group of scarecrows standing, allowing the golden men under the city to approach.
There are three military soldiers in Zhengding City. One is the young and strong recruited by the Liu Ziyu brothers themselves. They are all new recruits, and they are now hiding behind, waiting for orders.
A wave of defeated soldiers who retreated from Zhongshan. They fought with the Jin people for several days and had unforgettable hatred with them, and their eyes were almost full of fire.
There is also an army of reinforcements from the Divine Guard Army, namely Zhou Shiyuan, Wang Yi and others. These people looked indifferent, looking at the Jin people slowly approaching below like wooden people.
Their indifference made the other two soldiers in the city calm down suddenly, and they felt that the enemies were not so terrible.
Zhou Shiyuan stood quietly on the city tower, silently calculating the distance between the Jin people, waiting for them to get closer and closer, and could see clearly. The Jin people's archers were already in place and prepared to suppress the bow and arrow.
Zhou Shiyuan slowly raised his hand, and the Divine Guards took off their bows and arrows in an orderly manner with a squeak. The bed and crossbows were also covered with strings.
"Shoot!" Zhou Shiyuan waved his hand violently! "Woo--" The arrows fell like rain on the city, and the arrows were missing like eyes. They burst into the enemy's position and shot out a rain of blood.
"Puboo! Puboo!" The golden people fell down a large area.
"Woo--" The bed crossbow fired a huge crossbow arrow of five feet. The front end of the crossbow arrow was a crescent-like arrow cluster. These crossbow arrows accurately hit the forward siege equipment.
"Crash!" The wooden equipment suddenly scattered all over the ground, and the Jin soldiers behind them also fled around.
Wanyan Chang's eyes pounded. The archery skills of these Song people are very good! Even the Great Jin warriors under his command were almost the same. They have the advantage of the city wall and have the advantage of bows and arrows. If they want to win the real decisive, the damage will definitely be small!
What happened later really verified his judgment. The arrows on the city seemed to have no end as if they were raining. It was difficult for the Jin people to hit the city wall, but they themselves lost more than a thousand people.
"Dududududu!" The horn sounded, and Wanyan Chang took back his army unhappily.
Chapter completed!
