Chapter 103 Sweeping Liuheqing-7

Jia Yuanzhen looked up at the tower when the red sun sets westward. ** (Four hours at a time, in the howling north wind, he kept shrinking his neck, his teeth were rustling, his eyebrows and eyes were covered with frost. Facing the stunning scenery of the long river and the sunset. The sky gradually became darker. When the last ray of light fell below the horizon, Jia Yuanzhen looked up at the sky. The moon was dark tonight, and the situation in the distance became blurred. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the east again. A ball of fire was particularly conspicuous in the dark night. Not long after, the fire in the west also lit up.

"Very good, good luck." His face was almost frozen, and Jia Yuanzhen grinned with difficulty.

There is a stove on the building, but in order to save tincture oil, he can only use the night when the dark clouds cover the moon and cannot see the scenery clearly, and he trembled out the fire stick from his arms. It shook brightly in the wind. He carefully lit a torch wrapped in oil gauze, and then used the torch to reach the stove. The flames burned up and almost licked his face. Jia Yuanzhen subconsciously flashed back and staggered. If it weren't for the railings blocking it, he would almost fall from the building. "It's great, if you survive the disaster, you will have good fortune." Jia Yuanzhen murmured. He felt the warmth brought by the flames with lingering fear. When he looked into the distance, it was completely dark and nothing could be seen. The tincture oil burned very vigorously. Under the strong north wind, the flames danced like a golden snake.

"Hurry up" Jia Yuanzhen rubbed his hands, pulled the rope, and put down a glass cover. The flames stabilized suddenly. At the same time, the mirror embedded around the glass cover shot the flames far away, forming a wide beam of light that shone to a very far place. The frozen river surface appeared and reflected a gray light, which was a wonder of the world.

"It's amazing." The first time I witnessed this scene, Jia Yuanzhen forgot to keep warm for a moment, opened his mouth and looked at it.

The cold wind whistled. After a while, when he felt his lips hurt, he came to his senses and slowly pushed the winch with his hands. The soldiers called the "scare lamp" the glass cover slowly turned. In the darkness, the illuminated area was full of tiny. If the Liao people wanted to sneak attack the Guanlou at night, it would be as difficult as the sky. "What a fun thing." Jia Yuanzhen grinned, carefully pressed his hand to the outer wall of the glass, screamed in surprise, and quickly retracted, almost burning his hand.

The halo of the "scare lamp" slowly swept across a large area of ​​ice. On the wide and frozen river surface, the north wind whistled. Su Meng's head, face, mouth and nose were covered with dog skin. He was wearing deer leather boots stuffed with urla grass. He still felt the cold air was biting in the military registration of the North Courtyard. He was no longer a Han identity, but "releasing the registration" became a Jurchen people. This night attack was aimed at pulling out the Nail Village Fortress on the south bank of the river. Among the three thousand-person teams, only the Jurchen Thousand-person team was transferred yesterday.

In the battle of Yingchang Mansion, the Southern Jurchen King Wanyan Zongbi led his troops to escape first, which implicated all the Jurchen people. In order to avoid severe punishment, Wanyan Zongbi had to wear lambskins and apologize to Yelu Dashi personally. Although Yelu Dashi forgave him, he broke the Jurchen camp into pieces. More and more labours fell on the Jurchen camp because there was a mistake first. No matter how dissatisfied Wanyan Zongbi was, he dared not openly object, and could only suppress the tribe.

On the smooth ice surface, the Jurchens were frozen like wooden stakes, moving forward step by step Dalugu walked beside Su Meng, holding a horse hard. The Jurchen Thousand People Team was holding a horse. Whether it was because of the cold or careful, everyone closed their mouths tightly, and even their eyes were only opened a crack. They looked as if they were frozen together and were very careful on the ice surface. The one in front used a short snatch to attack the ice surface to explore the path, and the footprints in the front walked on the ice surface of the river. There were countless ice holes left by the people of Song Dynasty chiseling ice and fishing. Whether intentionally or not, these were traps that eat people without spitting bones.

"The heaven of immortality is above," Darugu murmured suddenly, "What is that?" He looked at the column of light floating in front of him and stopped

"Kidan said it, it's scary to death." Su Meng hesitated, "There are really many wonderful things in the State of Song." He looked ahead in surprise, and suddenly a strong desire arose in his heart. He couldn't help but run to the other side of the river, but his face was still as cold as ice, and his feet seemed to be frozen on the ice.

"Wait," Darugu whispered, "maybe it will be extinguished in a while."

Dalugu waved behind him, and the Jurchen Thousand People Team stopped on the ice almost at the same time, the Khitan Thousand People Team in the middle and the Xijun Thousand People Team on the left wing also stopped, and stopped fearfully outside the light range of the "scareless lamp" Although there were a lot of three thousand people, on the river where the north wind was howling, it was like a group of lonely ants. As soon as it stopped, someone was so cold that he couldn't bear it. There was a sound of the teeth princess everywhere. "Go forward," someone complained in a low voice, "Stop for a while, you will all be frozen to death." The cold air on the ice surface, and the war horses strangled their mouths and noses also began to struggle to leave the cold. The Khitan Thousand People Team in the middle army seemed to be unable to resist the cold and began to slowly move to the other side of the river. The Xijun Thousand People Team followed and stepped into the range of the "scareless lamp" illuminated.

"The Song people have a 'scared light', why do they still attack at night?" Dalugu complained, "Someone was kicked by a horse in the brain?" He waved his hand and led the Jurchen Thousand People Team forward again. "Fast" Dalugu accelerated his pace. Since the Song people have a 'scared light' and hide their tracks, it is impossible to attack Wanglou while Yuehei is taking advantage of the moon to sneak attack. It is better to pass through the frozen ice Khitan camp. The Xi army seems to have the same idea as him. The Liao army stayed for a moment and moved towards the south bank of the river suddenly accelerated.

"Liao thieves attacked at night"

Jia Yuanzhen discovered the Liao army almost the first time. He shook the "scare lamp" left and right, and the ice surface was covered with "ants" from the inside to the outside. "Damn it, the passing years are not good." Jia Yuanzhen cursed, while taking out the cannon from his arms and counting three. After lit the fire stick for a while, "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" "swhoo--" three fireworks exploded in the night sky, and the enemy was far beyond the range of the arrows. After the cannon was set off, Jia Yuanzhen could only shake the "swhoo--" and the light dragged the enemy's shadow long on the ice.

"Damn it," Darugu cursed that he instinctively hated the light, pulled out the scimitar and shouted, "Run over to me, burn that building." "Run" the Jurchen soldiers no longer hide their whereabouts, pulled out the scimitar and rushed towards the south bank, "With a plop", the scream of "ah yo" stopped abruptly, but one person accidentally fell into the ice hole. "The people of Henan have been so hungry that their chests are pressed against their stomachs all year round. Since they found a way to fish on the ice, thousands of people have taken advantage of the ice.

When the layer was thin, the entire river surface was frozen enough to pass through the large group of people, and the chiseled ice holes were frozen. The surface was no different from the ordinary ice surface, but they could not carry the weight of people. After several people fell into the ice holes, the Liao army slowed down again and the closer they got to the south bank of the river, the more ice holes there were, and they were all invisible traps. No matter how the officer urged him, no one would want to joke about his life.

The three-color fireworks "Enemy attack" representing the arrival of about 3,000 horses.

After receiving the report, Xia Maoer hurriedly put on his armor and climbed up the saddle and looked back. The five battalions of musketeers were gathering in the whole team to prevent the attack by the Liao army. The Song army camp was still a distance from the river bank. In order to deal with the harassment of Liao cavalry, the Tokyo Left Resident Department restored the system of "horse and infantry people" in the army and assigned a large number of captured war horses to the musketeer camp. The two musketeers rode a war horse together and then dismounted and fought after arriving at the battlefield.

"Start" Xia Maoer gritted his teeth and lifted the reins of the horse and more than 3,000 muskets and cavalry followed closely behind

"Start - Quick" Centurion Zhang Du waved his whip and shouted loudly, "Driving" the horse and running hard, and the sled cart slid across the ice like lightning. "How about it?" Zhang Du turned proudly, "This method is easy to use?"

"Get out of your way" battalion commander Xie Chengfu leaned against the gun barrel and cursed, "Be careful of overturning the car."

"Don't worry" Zhang Du waved his whip. Although he kept silent, he felt proud that he couldn't say it because of the inconvenience of artillery transportation. He came up with this method of using ice tray to carry artillery. Zhang Du rushed back and forth on this section of ice, but he would not overturn even if he closed his eyes. The base of the artillery battalion was about six miles away from the Liao army's invasion, and only less than five miles away from the nearest artillery base.

"Slow down, it's not going to have a banquet." Xie Chengfu shouted, looking at the other sledge trucks behind worriedly.

"Please invite Liaogou to eat iron eggs," Zhang Du said with a smile, "If you slow down, you won't be able to catch up with the table." After that, he waved another whip and shouted loudly: "

More than a dozen sled trucks slid rapidly on the ice and quickly arrived at the cannon base. It was said to be a cannon base, but in fact it was just a low wall built on the river embankment. If you were not careful, you could not see that along the pre-paved ice path, the gunners pushed the cannon into the cannon base. The sound of the "crackling" muskets kept ringing like firecrackers. Obviously, the Song army's large troop arrived at the river embankment in time and were emitting guns to the Liao army on the ice. At this time, Jia Yuanzhen was still holding his duties and insisting on looking up the tower, using "scaring"

"The human lamp" illuminated the river section of the Liao army's attack over and over again, which made the cannon leader's observation that the ice surface was no longer gray and white, but emitted a heart-pounding blood-red light. Although the Liao army suffered a loss, they still did not give up. The soldiers in the back row shot arrows at the Song army, and the ones in front rushed towards the smooth ice surface and bloated clothes to the south bank, making the Liao army's movement on the ice surface very inconvenient. Almost every row of muskets fired, dozens or hundreds of people fell to the ground.

"Hurry up, hurry up." After erecting ten artillery pieces, Zhang Du ran over and asked, "Prepare to fire the fire?"

"Nonsense" Xie Chengfu used a thousand-mile mirror to observe the situation and whispered, "Chang 63, 500 steps, solid bullets, fire in turn."

"Okay" Zhang Du was happy and retelled the military order loudly, "Chang 63, 500 steps, solid bullets, and fired in turn." He was still unsatisfied and added another sentence, "Boom his mother."
