Chapter 814

Skirmishers attack the city

Author: An Huajun

In Shaanxi, only the Suide Army is connected to the Shizhou and Jinning Army on the Hedong Road, which is a dead end in the Jin Kingdom. Except for Wanyan Salihe, the only general here is Wanyan Huonv. Other upper-class figures

, has long been transferred to other places through various connections.

When Wanyan Huonv arrived at Anbao, the Song army had already arrived at Dantou Village for two days and had already completed the defense system. Knowing the outcome of the past few days, all the generals felt hesitant, hesitating between attacking and retreating.

indefinite.

Seeing the hesitation of the generals, Wanyan Huonu said angrily: "Now that we have figured it out, there are only three thousand Song troops on the other side, why should we hesitate? There are six thousand people from Anding Fort plus three thousand people from Long'an Village.

We have nine thousand troops. Nine thousand troops, why are we afraid of three thousand defenders!"

Hu Lu whispered: "These three thousand Song troops defeated two thousand of us in one battle, and wiped out three thousand of us in a few days. They should not be underestimated! Dutong, the nine thousand here are on Shaanxi Road."

All armies, once lost..."

Wanyan Huonu said: "There are only three thousand Song troops. Even if they have great abilities, they can't destroy my nine thousand army!"

After saying that, he looked at the generals below. Some lowered their heads, some raised their eyes and looked out the window, and some shook their heads slightly, obviously lacking confidence. In a few days, Zhang Zhen's group came so fiercely that these generals were frightened.

, my confidence was completely shattered.

Looking at the faces of everyone, Wanyan Huonu said helplessly: "Our army is here, we can't be scared away by the three thousand Song troops, we have to fight. Your confidence is gone, how can this be done? Tomorrow Long'an Village will

The army has also arrived, let's join forces and try to attack."

No one spoke, and there were no expressions on their faces.

Wan Yanhuo Nu sighed secretly, not knowing what to say.

An army has completely lost its confidence and is afraid of the enemy. How can we fight this battle? But it can't be fought without fighting. How can an army of 9,000 people be scared away by 3,000 people? What's more, the enemy is still on the opposite side.

The Song Army, and she was the invincible Jin Army. If the two sides were switched, it would make sense for the nine thousand Song Army to be scared away by the three thousand Jin Army. In just a few years, it has become like this. Wanyan Huonv was in a trance for a while, feeling like she was dreaming

Same.

The next day, Wanyan Huonv led the army and approached Dantou Village.

Dantou Village is not big, and the city wall is not high. It looks like a squatting puppy on the vast land. Wanyan Huonv feels that she can step onto the city head with a pull of the horse's rein. But this is a small town,

Blocking the Jin army's path forward.

The city was too small and too many Song troops could not be placed on the wall. Zhang Zhen's arrangement was that the right army camp would be the main defender on the city wall, and the rear army camp would assist. The front army camp and the left army camp would be ready to attack at any time under the city, and the middle army camp would be the reserve force.

The city was so crowded that the leader of the village, Xianying, and his Tibetan soldiers could only do odd jobs and help with chores. Even Shu Jiming and the others could only gather their troops and occupy a few yards.

When had Dang Xianying ever seen such a scene? He always felt on tenterhooks. In a small town like Dantou Village, when an army of 9,000 soldiers was encountered, it would be flattened. When would he dare to defend the city? But these 3,000 Song troops were not able to defend the city.

But when it comes to defending the city, we are still confident.

Looking at the Jin army outside the city at the top of the city, Zhang Zhen put down his telescope and said: "I don't know how they are going to attack. The artillery on the top of the city is almost full, and they can't attack from any direction. In a few days, there is no shortage of artillery shells."

, what else are they coming to attack?"

After finishing speaking, he shook his head repeatedly, looking like he couldn't understand.

Wanyan Huonu was on horseback, looking at Dantou Village in front of her, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind. Finally, she said: "The Song Army has artillery, which is extremely powerful. If we want to attack, there is only one way. That is to use the cavalry to quickly run past the artillery.

Once the shooting range reaches the city, then the ants are dismounted and attached to the city. However, in this way, effective command cannot be achieved, and the effect is compromised. Moreover, how to transport the ladder to the city is also a problem."

Hu Lu said: "Capital, the Song army must be full of artillery at the top of the city. It will not be easy to climb the city. It is better to prepare more men and make more trips. If there are more people, we can attack the city."

Wan Yan Huo Nu nodded: "That's all it can do."

After saying that, he ordered the messengers behind him and summoned the fierce Di Gu to add. He said: "You lead a thousand cavalry and attack the opposite city wall. Remember, the Song people's artillery is powerful, so you must be careful. After riding the horse for three hundred steps,

, then dismount and attack. The artillery at the top of the Song Army's city cannot hit too close."

Digu added, "Yes." He originally wanted to say something, but he hesitated and finally didn't say anything.

After getting on his horse, Di Gubu looked at the city wall opposite and felt a sense of desolation in his heart. Normally, the Song army had no artillery, and the Jin army was not good at attacking the city. What's more, now that the city is full of artillery? With his thousand cavalry, in normal times,

, you can chase 10,000 Song troops, but today you end up in this situation.

Hearing the sound of a drum, followed by the sound of war drums from all directions, Digubu felt that the ground was shaking. He gritted his teeth and charged forward with a thousand cavalry.

As soon as he ran out of misfortune, he saw a muffled sound from the city wall and countless cannonballs flying towards the cavalry. Digu narrowly dodged a cannonball. Looking back, he saw that one-third of his army had been eliminated. He urged him to cross.

He dismounted and hurried forward. After not going far, he heard the muffled sound in his head again, and the shells were hitting him almost endlessly.

Di Gubu didn't care and just urged the horse to move quickly.

By the time of the third round of artillery, most of Digu's troops were out of the artillery range. Almost half of the troops hit by artillery fire were just on the road.

Digu dismounted his horse and looked at the city wall in front of him. He didn't know what to do for a moment. Most of the ladders he brought on the road had been smashed by artillery, and only two were left. Two ladders were used to attack the city. This didn't mean that

A joke?

When they arrived at the city wall, Di Gubu turned back to look at Yan Huo Nu. In this state, she could only hope that he would send more people.

Wan Yanhuo Nu's face was ashen. A thousand people arrived at the city and only 500 people were left. This battle could not be fought. No matter how many people she had, there were not enough cannonballs to kill them.

At this time, Hulu came forward and whispered: "Capital, the Song army's artillery is most useful for attacking the gathered troops, but it won't work if it attacks the dispersed troops. Why don't we use the cavalry and let the soldiers disperse and approach from all directions?"

City wall. Even if a cannon is fired, it may not hit anyone, so what if it does? One or two people can be exchanged for one cannonball, which is not a loss."

Wanyan Huonu's eyes lit up and she said: "What you said makes sense! If the people are scattered, what if the Song army has artillery? When they get near the city wall, the artillery will be useless! As long as one city wall is captured, Dan

Touzhai is not at my mercy!"

After saying that, he took a deep breath and immediately made arrangements. This time he no longer used cavalry, but asked three thousand people to dismount, divide into three sides, and approach the city wall.

Zhang Zhen looked at the Jin army's layout at the top of the city and sighed: "The Jin army general is a sensible man and knows how to disperse the attack. In this way, the artillery at the top of the city loses its greatest effect and cannot kill many people. But he doesn't

Understand, the biggest role of artillery is to destroy siege equipment. What's the use of people without equipment?"

After finishing speaking, he ordered Shu Jiming and others below to prepare to go out of the city to fight at any time. When the Jin army arrived at the city, it was not enough to just defend it, they also needed to take the initiative to attack. This is what the people below said, the defense of the city must be both offensive and defensive, not defensive.
