68 Victory and Defense(1/2)
The hundreds of guards behind the captain of the Jin Army rode up and surrounded Zhao Zhen. However, the captain of the Jin Army saw that there were many Song troops near Wan Yanlie's handsome flag and was in danger, so he took
Other Jin army guards rushed towards Wanyan Lie.
When Zhao Zhen saw these guards coming up, she surrounded herself. Without saying a word, she jumped up from her horse, swung the steel gun in her hand and stabbed a Jin Army guard in the throat before he could react.
Fall off the horse.
Seeing dozens of swords, guns and maces coming towards her, Zhao Zhen stepped on the horse of the dead Jin Jun guard, jumped again, kicked the other Jin Jun guard behind him off the horse, and twisted his body
Then he landed firmly on the horse that was kicked off his horse.
The whole movement was done in one go, and the other golden soldiers couldn't help but widen their eyes, secretly shocked by the opponent's strength. Zhao Zhen, who was on the horse, did not stop, turned the horse's head, and then stabbed the horse's butt under his crotch with a spear. The horse was injured.
He screamed in pain and rushed forward wildly.
An ordinary war horse, with one shot from Zhao Zhen, drove away more than a hundred Jin Army guards in just a few breaths. It encountered several Jin Army guards and soldiers who intercepted them on the way, and none of them were Zhao Zhen.
All the generals were stabbed off their horses by Zhao Zhen. Soon, Zhao Zhen had caught up with the captain of Wanyan Lie's bodyguard and others who had already walked some distance, which shows how fast they were. The Prince of the Song Dynasty who traveled through the special forces

Zhao Zhen took advantage of Wanyan Lie's more than 300 bodyguards who didn't notice her running at a rapid pace, and shot repeatedly behind the Jin Army bodyguards. A steel spear was so powerful that it trembled and stabbed out stars, killing the dozen or so people who fell at the end.
The guards of the Jin Army stabbed each other in the back and killed them one by one.
A Jin Army guard heard the movement behind him. When he looked back, he saw that the Jin Army guard who was following him had turned into the enemy's general at some point. Moreover, the enemy general was stabbing at him with a steel spear. This man
The guards of the Jin Army couldn't help being shocked and shouted: "Help..." Before the last word 'Ah' could be uttered, he was stabbed off his horse.
The advancing Jin Army guards heard this and turned back one after another. When the guard leader saw Zhao Zhen chasing after him again, he said angrily: "Stop him!" After saying that, he led the people and rushed forward again. He looked at them and stayed.
More than a hundred people came to stop him, but Zhao Zhen did not bother with them. He reined in his horse and fired another shot at the horse, then rushed out diagonally. The remaining Jin Army guards had to follow
He chased after him endlessly.
Just like this, the leader of the guards ran away with his men in front, followed by Zhao Zhen, and behind him was a large group of Jin Army guards chasing Zhao Zhen.
At this time, Zhao Xiaodao and his group, because they all risked their lives, actually managed to break through the blocking Jin soldiers. At this time, only Zhao Zhen was blocking the gap between Wanyan Lie's guards and Wanyan Lie.
There was almost no difference. When the two parties saw each other approaching Wanyan Lie, they desperately urged their horses. Because whoever reaches Wanyan Lie one step ahead of time will be the winner of this battle.
However, the large number of golden soldiers could not stop Zhao Xiaodao and others, but Zhao Zhen alone held back Wanyanlie's guards. Zhao Zhen, who was chasing after him, risked his life, and Heng Dao immediately killed them.
A group of guards were holding him back.
Wanyan Lie saw that his bodyguards would not be able to come back for a while, but when he saw Zhao Xiaodao and others approaching, he had no choice but to urge his horse to run to one side and escape.
There was a Jin Army flag bearer behind Wanyan Lie, that is, the Jin Army guard who had been holding the Jin Army flag. As soon as he saw that his general had run away, he didn't dare to stay where he was. He picked up the flag and ran away.
.
So when Jin Bing saw Shuai Qi running, he thought something was wrong with Wanyan Lie, so he got into chaos and ran backwards after Shuai Qi.
After a while, the Jin soldiers, all cavalry, ran away, leaving only King Xin's Yijun and corpses on the battlefield. At this time, Wanyan Lie could not control his army. In order to avoid the Song army
Chasing behind them. So they retreated and set up camp five miles away. Seeing the Jin soldiers fleeing, Zhao Xiaodao shouted to chase him, but fortunately Zhao Zhen stopped him and did not chase him out. This
At that time, the scarred horse that Zhao Zhen was riding had reached its limit and fell down with a "plop". Zhao Zhen, who had been prepared for it, had already jumped off the horse and walked towards the generals.
When Zhao Zhen saw that Zhao Xiaodao was covered in blood and was injured while charging Wanyan Lie's banner, he hurriedly asked with concern: "Xiaodao, how are your injuries?" Zhao Xiaodao bared his teeth and smiled forcefully: "It's okay.
, these are just minor injuries." He patted his chest as he spoke. He didn't expect that such a move would cause wounds on his body, and he couldn't help but take a breath.
Zhao Zhen looked at Zhao Xiaodao's honest and grinning look, and smiled, guessing that he must be fine, and hurriedly ordered everyone to count the wounded.
After a while, the casualties were reported. There were originally more than 4,000 soldiers in the battle, but now there were only less than 3,000 left, and 300 of them were seriously injured, and everyone was slightly injured.
Yes. The casualties of the Jin soldiers were approximately 1,500 to 1,500.
After hurriedly burying the bodies of the fallen soldiers, Zhao Zhen took the remaining people and rode straight towards Zhongtiao Mountain on their war horses, almost a man with three riders.
Zhao Zhen led his army to retreat to Jiezhou City. The man guarding the city was Li Yanxian's general Shao Yun. As soon as Shao Yun saw Zhao Zhen's troops, he immediately opened the city and let people in. Zhao Zhen's troops had just entered the city.
Tens of thousands of Jin troops rushed out to pursue him.
The person who came was none other than Shi Guduo, the golden general who commanded tens of thousands of troops. It turned out that Wanyan Lie had lost the battle and the army had been greatly dispersed. By the time he gathered the army, there were only less than 2,500 men left. Waiting for him
After meeting Shi Guduo, he didn't have the shame to say anything. He just told him about his general situation and hid in the back camp. But Shi Guduo secretly laughed at him.
I saw the vanguard cavalry of the Jin Army who were the first to rush to the city under Shi Guduo's tent. Their horses did not stop when they arrived at the city. They ran sideways along the city wall and "shot" arrows in their hands towards the city wall as they moved forward.
.
Relying on the speed of the horses, the strength of the Jin Army's bows and arrows, and the arm strength of the Jin Army soldiers, the range of the Jin Army's arrows was actually further than that of the Song Army, which was condescending. The arrows shot down from the top of the city were seen.
They all landed not far away from the golden soldiers, and only one or two occasionally could "shoot" the golden soldiers. But by then, the lethality of the arrows had already dropped to zero, and there was basically no threat to the golden soldiers. This group of golden soldiers
The cavalry generally wear heavy armor, and the golden soldiers can only be "shot" off their horses unless they are "shot" in the face.
However, the arrows of the Jin soldiers were able to reach the top of the city from a distance. In addition, they shot at an angle, not head-on. Therefore, the area at the top of the city was larger.
Arrows were flying at the top of the city. Although there were shields blocking the city, the screams of the Song troops defending the city, the militiamen and the young men carrying supplies could still be heard. The Prince of the Song Dynasty through the Special Forces 68
Zhao Zhen had a shield on her head, listening to the "dong dong" sound from above, feeling upset. At this time, Zhao Xiaodao roared and asked Zhao Zhen aside: "General Gao, what should I do? You can't do this.
Just keep being beaten with a broken shield!" Before Zhao Zhen could say anything, Shao Yun shouted at the side: "Don't worry, I'll let you guys know more about it later!" As he spoke, he felt the 'dong dong' sound above his head change.
Although it was small, this wave of Jin Bing's attacks passed.
Shao Yun threw down the shield in his hand, stood up straight and shouted: "Come on, push our babies up!" The Song Army officers and soldiers beside him hurriedly ran into the city gate tower. After a while, three people covered their bodies.
They pushed out the dark, big metal objects as big as water tanks one by one. Before Zhao Zhen had time to see what they were, another rain of arrows fell down, and everyone hurriedly raised their shields again.
Top of head.
After finally surviving this hail of arrows, the Song Army soldiers began to work again, carrying out several large boxes from the tower. Zhao Zhen didn't know what these were, but there was a familiar smell inside the boxes - fire.
The smell of medicine!
Surprised, Zhao Zhen looked up at the shapes of those big guys again, and suddenly understood, these were not primitive artillery. At this time, looking at the bumps all over the body, he didn't know whether they were made of copper or not.
A cannon made of iron. Zhao Zhen smiled slightly. He had only been hit by Jin's firearms, but this time he finally saw a firearm and cannon from the Song Dynasty. But with this workmanship, can this thing be used?
At this time, Zhao Xiaodao on the side was surprised: "Ah, isn't this... General Thunderbolt Fire!" Seeing Zhao Xiaodao's surprised look, Shao Yun said proudly: "It's General Thunderbolt Fire, I begged for this
It took General Li several calls before he gave me three gates. These were left behind by the Northern Army when they retreated, and we took them back from the Jin Army."
At this moment, the soldiers on the lookout at the top of the city shouted: "Sir, the golden soldiers are here again!" Shao Yun couldn't care less about being proud and hurriedly ordered the guards to start loading ammunition. He watched several guards hurriedly
With a "chaotic" look on his face, Zhao Zhen thought to himself: "Such a crude cannon, it won't blow up in a while!" Thinking of this, he hurriedly took a few steps back.
Finally, just when the Jin soldiers rushed in again and started shooting arrows at the top of the city, General Shao Yun's ammunition for the three gates was finally filled. Shao Yun shouted: "Back off, everyone!"
"Seeing that everyone was far away, he waved his hand and ordered: "Light the fire!"
Seeing the fuse emitting white smoke, the people around them couldn't help but open their eyes wide, wanting to see the power of General Shao Yun of the Song Dynasty.
"Boom, boom, boom!" There were three loud noises in a row, and the entire city wall trembled, and the top of the city gate was instantly covered with thick smoke. Even Zhao Zhen, who had been prepared to take a few more steps back, did not
He was able to escape the thick smoke and was choked to the point of coughing. After a long pause, he heard Shao Yun curse from inside the thick smoke: "Kill you golden dogs to death, cough cough cough!" There was also a violent response from the people around him.
coughing sound.
When the smoke dissipated a little, everyone with dark faces didn't care too much. They quickly leaned on the wall and looked down. They saw several large pits on the ground about a mile away, and some golden soldiers were scattered next to them.
and the carcasses of war horses.
At this time, the Jin soldiers came again. In fact, these artillery was nothing to the Jin soldiers. They had seen many of them when they attacked the Liao Kingdom and captured a lot of them. Although there was a panic just now due to unpreparedness.
"Chaos", but under the organization of the Jin army generals, they quickly attacked.
Seeing the Jin soldiers coming to kill again, and at this time even the Jin Army infantrymen came over carrying ladders, the Song soldiers on the top of the city immediately picked up their bows and arrows and shot down the city.
Zhao Zhen, who originally wanted to take a closer look at the power of the Thunderbolt General, waited for a long time but heard no movement. Looking back, he saw some soldiers surrounding the three cannons with shields on their heads. No.
He knew what they were busy with. When Zhao Zhen went over to take a look, he saw a group of soldiers squatting under the shields, busy cleaning the debris in the barrel.
Looking at the debris that was cleared out, there were actually some broken stones. Zhao Zhen knew that the ammunition for artillery in ancient times was just stones, and the function of gunpowder was just to push the stones out of the barrel. But with his own eyes,
When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little funny. He thought: When our cannon is built, it will be much stronger than this stone cannon!
Before Zhao Zhen could think too much, the three thunderbolt generals were cleared. Then there was another tedious loading process. When the golden soldiers rushed to the city and started to set up the ladder, these big guys started to ring.
Looking at the open ground under the city in front, several Jin cavalry were once again knocked to the ground by three cannonballs. There was another burst of cheers from the top of the city. But this time, because the Jin soldiers were prepared, they did not take a step back and continued to shoot at the top of the city.
’ with arrows to cover the infantry attacking the city. As for the Song army, because the Jin soldiers below the city had already begun to set up ladders, they had no choice but to throw stones at the city despite the rain of arrows to block the Jin soldiers’ attack.
As a result, the casualties increased. After a while, nearly a hundred people fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, and some were carried directly to the top of the city.
As the casualties continued to increase, some soldiers who were timid and afraid of death slowly began to retreat. Seeing this, Shao Yun immediately picked up a riding whip and rushed over to start beating people. While beating them, he yelled: "Who would do it?"
If you dare to retreat again, I will kill him!" The soldiers who were so frightened that they wanted to retreat did not dare to take a step back again.
Then Shao Yun shouted to the guards who were tinkering with the Shenwu generals: "What are you doing? Hurry up and fire!" A deputy general in charge of directing the firing hurried over and said with a grimace: "
Sir, we can't fire any more cannons, those generals are extremely hot now, and if they don't stop for a while, they might explode!"
Shao Yun had heard that General Shenwu had this problem, but seeing his soldiers falling to the ground after being hit by arrows, he felt really anxious. He frowned and asked, "Can't you fire even one cannon?
?" The deputy general obviously knew the power and performance of the artillery, so he shook his head and said: "It really can't be used anymore. If you use it again, not only will these precious lumps of yours be scrapped, but your brothers may also explode.
It’s from God.”
Shao Yun stamped his feet angrily. At this time, a general behind him came over and said, "Sir, there are bed crossbows in the city. Why don't we bring them up and use them." Shao Yun said, "Then quickly bring someone with you.
