Three hundred small trenchers were started to prepare, each trencher was responsible for eight people, six of whom were responsible for pushing the winch, and two others were responsible for loading the bomb. This time it was not a stone, nor was it an ordinary throwing of thunder, while the super-large thunder bombardment city was responsible for thunder.

Li Yanqing also used the super-large city-killing thunder in the last war because of insufficient ordinary sky-killing thunder. He accidentally discovered that this kind of city-killing thunder has stronger lethality, especially in dense crowds. The huge shock wave made no one survive within fifty steps, and even if he crawled on the ground, he could not avoid it.

To this end, more than half of the newly created thunderstorm were used to create thunderstorm in the city.

But super-large thunder also has a defect, that is, it is thrown far. After all, an iron lump weighing 80 kilograms must be thrown 200 steps away, while a small trench can only throw 50 or 60 steps away at most.

With Niu Gao's order, three small catapults creaked away, and the 80-pound super-shaking thunder was placed in the bullet pocket, and the throwing rod was immediately bent by the heavy bullet pocket.

Li Yanqing was still watching the Jurchen soldiers running under the city. At this time, the Jin soldiers siege were still mainly Xi soldiers, while the Khitan soldiers were deployed within a range of about 30 steps from the city wall. The Jurchen soldiers quickly gathered in a range of 50 steps to 70 steps. There were more and more soldiers, almost all of them coming. At this time, they were nervously re-arranging and not yet realizing that the crisis had arrived.

"It's time to launch!" Li Yanqing gave a cold shooting order.

‘Dongdong’

The dull drum sounded slowly, and then the three-colored flag was waving, and Niu Gao roared, "Light!"

The soldiers lit the fuses of the sky-shaking thunder with fire squeaks. When the fuses reached the mouth of the pot, three hundred catapults fired almost at the same time. Three hundred huge black thunders flew over the heads of the Jurchen soldiers outside the city.

Wanyan Xie suddenly found countless small black dots flying up from the top of the city and shooting out of the city. He was so frightened that he was suddenly frightened and blurted out, "Not good!"

Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Three hundred super-large thunders exploded in the dense group of 20,000 Jurchen soldiers. Almost all the Song soldiers on the city covered their ears and squatted on the ground. The Song soldiers who were fighting with the enemy also gave up fighting and covered their ears and lay on the ground.

Many Xi soldiers who were fighting on the top of the city unexpectedly turned back and watched. The 10,000 Khitan soldiers who were shooting arrows under the city were the first to discover the dense thunder that was thrown away. Except for the few soldiers with sharp reactions who covered their ears and squatted on the ground in horror, the other soldiers did not react. Most of the Jurchen soldiers did not know what had happened until they died.

First, a shocking explosion drowned out the soldiers' screams. The earth was shaking violently, and thick smoke rose into the air, quickly spreading the earth, and the entire battlefield became quiet.

After a cup of tea, the Song soldiers on the top of the city slowly raised their heads. Most of the more than a hundred siege ladders on the top of the city disappeared. Even if there were more than a dozen siege ladders, the Xi soldiers on the ladder were gone. The explosion and shaking made them unable to stand and fell down from the city. The smoke of gunpowder had not yet dissipated. Corplies were everywhere on the ground, broken human bodies could be seen everywhere, dozens of large pits appeared on the ground, and blood had dyed the soil red.

Most of the soldiers were shattered by the shock wave and died. Even the soldiers who were not dead were shocked and the senior Jin soldiers watching the battle from a distance were stunned.

At this time, Li Yanqing shouted loudly: "All crossbowmen are ready!"

‘Dong!Dong!Dong!Dong’ The dense sound of war drums sounded, and eight thousand crossbow soldiers raised their crossbows to aim at the city. The soldiers who were shocked began to get up. At this time, the soldiers on the top of the city shot down like raindrops. The soldiers who escaped the thunder explosion by luck could not escape the intensive shooting of the soldiers.

Wanyan Xie woke up like a dream in the distance and shouted, "Ming Jin to withdraw his troops!"

‘Dang!Dang!Dang!Dang!’ The rapid withdrawal bell rang, and thousands of soldiers fled in fear. Tens of thousands of arrows on the city were fired at the same time. The soldiers screamed and fell down.

This is a battle that can be listed in history. The Song army used 300 most advanced super-large explosive city thunder to kill more than 30,000 Jin soldiers at one time, including soldiers who siege the city and died in front and behind. Wanyan Xie also invested 40,000 soldiers and only more than 2,000 people fled back. The remaining 38,000 people were all killed in the battle under Taiyuan City.

After this war, nearly 80,000 people had been killed in Taiyuan City. Wanyan Xie had no idea of ​​attacking Taiyuan City again, and he had no plans for the next step. The Jin soldiers were stationed thirty miles east of Taiyuan City, and the camp stretched for twenty miles. In this way, they confronted the Taiyuan Song army and patiently waited for the arrival of spring.

As time gradually came to early February, the ice and snow on Hedong Road and Shaanxi Road began to melt, and the Yellow River began to thaw, and the ice cover was covered with cracks, and large pieces of floating ice slowly drifted along the river water, making a huge roar.

Ice and snow have also begun to melt in Shaanxi Road. The Luo River, which has been blocked by ice and snow for nearly two months, was finally opened due to the melting of snow.

That morning, a team of ragged soldiers walked out of the depths of the Luo River. The team was about a hundred people supporting each other and stumbled towards the intersection. It was obvious that they were extremely weak in physique.

The Song army had already built a military city at the north entrance of the Luo River Road, with two thousand troops stationed and blocked the Luo River Road. At this time, a soldier on the sentry tower suddenly saw the team coming from afar, and he immediately sounded the alarm bell.

‘Dang!Dang!Dang!’ The alarm bell echoed in the wilderness, alarming the Song soldiers in the military city.

A team of fully armed Song soldiers heading towards the entrance of the valley, He Ning, also rode on a horse. He Ning was the general of the deputy commander Wu Jie and was ordered to guard the northern entrance of the Luo River. He knew very well what was in the Luo River. He had originally been able to wait until the snow melted a little, so he led his army into the Luo River. Unexpectedly, someone from the Jin soldiers trapped in the Luo River were actually out.

Like all the Song army soldiers, He Ning looked at this ghost-like army in surprise. There were less than two hundred people, staggering towards this side.

"General, they have walked through the cordon!" a soldier reminded in a low voice.

He Ning suddenly woke up and shouted loudly: "Stop, otherwise you will shoot an arrow!"

The Jin soldiers a hundred steps away shook the white flag weakly toward this side, and stopped one after another. He Ning shouted again: "Put the weapon on the ground and retreat!"

The Jin soldiers put down their weapons and slowly retreated. He Ning winked. Hundreds of Song soldiers rushed forward, disarmed the weapons, and surrounded the more than 200 Jin soldiers. He Ning urged him to come forward and asked, "Who is the leader?"

A middle-aged man with deep cheeks on the stretcher slowly raised his hand, and his voice was extremely weak: "I am Wanyan Loushi!"

The army of more than 20,000 people was trapped for two months, and the food and grass were cut off, and they all depended on killing horses to survive. However, even horses could not meet the needs of soldiers' survival. Just after the first month of being besieged, less than two thousand horses were left. The desire to survive forced Wanyan Loushi to attack his own people. He sent his subordinates to create an avalanche at night, completely cutting off contact with his thousand confidants and the main army. Most of the horses were on his side. All the isolated Jin soldiers died of starvation, but his thousand soldiers got all the war horses for food.

But even so, disease and cold took most of the lives of people, and less than two hundred people remained until the end.

He Ning was overjoyed. On the one hand, he urgently sent someone to Yan'an Prefecture to report to Wujie. On the other hand, he asked the military doctor to treat Wanyan Loushi. This was the highest-ranking Jin general captured by the Song army since the war began, and it was priceless to the Song army.

Wu Jie received the news, and he did not hesitate and immediately reported the matter to Li Yanqing of Taiyuan City with an eagle letter.

In Taiyuan City Administration, Li Yanqing passed the eagle letter he had just received and told everyone that the generals were in an uproar. No one expected that anyone could survive the Jin soldiers who had been trapped for two months. It was incredible.

"It should be said that it is still possible."

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "After all, there is a cavalry in this army. As I guess, they survived for two months and finally survived. The survivors are indeed very lucky. However, it is a good thing for us to survive. We have the basis to bargain with the Jin soldiers."

Wang Gui frowned and asked, "District, are we going to negotiate peace with the Jin soldiers?"

Li Yanqing shook his head, "It's not that we want to negotiate peace with the Jin soldiers, but that the Jin soldiers want to negotiate peace with us, but not with us, but with the court. I have received clear news. Last year to this year, the snow disaster broke out in the Jin Dynasty, and more than half of the cattle and sheep were frozen to death. The same is true in the Xixia side. The Jin Dynasty's national strength can no longer hold on to the war with the Song Dynasty. I believe that the voice of internal peace talks in the Jin Dynasty has gained the upper hand."

Liu Qi also said: "In fact, we can continue to fight with the Jin soldiers, and peace talks may not be beneficial to us."

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "We barely confronted the Jin soldiers until now by relying on a strong city and powerful firearm. If we fight fiercely with the Jin soldiers in the wilderness, we have almost no chance to win, so we also need training and preparation. Moreover, there is a poisonous snake above our heads, which will come to sneak attack us at any time and recover the rivers and mountains without rushing to do so. I calmed down and patiently fought a protracted battle with the Jin soldiers."

Liu Qi and Wang Gui both nodded silently, and they understood the meaning of Dutong.

At this time, Li Yanqing smiled at the side of the Lord Bo Tangkai and said, "Maybe you have to ask Mr. Tang to go back to Lin'an!"
