The ten-man team is the result of everyone's negotiation. It is actually the smallest combat unit, equivalent to a current squad. There are large and small ones. The larger ones are called fires, and ten people are one fire. The smaller ones are called corps, and five people are one team.
, Chen Qing’s predecessor was a cavalry captain.
The organization of the new ten-man team has not changed. It still has the original soldiers and the original fire chief, but their equipment and combat ideas have changed.
A ten-man team consists of a steel forkman, a gunpowder soldier, a kerosene soldier, three crossbowmen, three spearmen, and an escort.
Each team of ten is responsible for handling one ladder.
The east side of Jiwang Slope is about two feet and four feet high, and its edges are surrounded by solid rock. It is indeed possible to climb up the rock with a ladder. This is also the new direction that the Jin soldiers found after repeatedly failing to attack the slope.
The drums of war were beating loudly, and the troops ambush in the darkness came under the light of the fire, while the trebuchets were still violently attacking the walls.
A thousand soldiers looked like ghosts escaping from the area, or like extremely hungry wolves in the wilderness. As soon as a section of the wall was broken down, the wolf-like Jurchen soldiers swarmed in desperately.
The enemy general was really anxious. There were less than two days left before the deadline given by Wanyan Wushu, and Wanyan Alupu was already anxious.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen ladders were erected on the rock, and dozens of ferocious-looking Jurchen soldiers climbed up bravely. At the same time, two thousand crossbowmen fired arrows at the top of the slope, suppressing the Song army.
, couldn’t lift his head.
"Zhangcha! Where is the fucking Changcha?" shouted one of the guards.
The subordinate was so frightened that he was sweating profusely and hurriedly handed over the steel fork. The escort glared at him fiercely, grabbed the steel fork, struggled to hold it against the top iron rung, turned around and cursed, "Fuck,
Are your eyes on your butts? Why don’t you come over here and help me?”
Several men grabbed the long fork and pushed it outward. Suddenly, a big hairy hand stretched out from the ladder, grabbed the steel fork and pushed it outward.
Seeing that the steel fork was about to be pushed out, the escort team's eyes were red, and they swung their swords and slashed at Mao's huge hand. "Crack!" The wrist was cut off, blood spurted out, and the Jurchen soldiers below screamed.
, tumbled down the ladder.
The other soldiers of the Song Army shouted together, and the ladder was finally slowly pushed away. Suddenly it slipped to the left. The ladder lost its center of gravity and fell hard to the left. It also knocked down more than a dozen soldiers on the other ladder.
There was a scream below the cliff.
"Boom!" Another 60-foot-long section of wall collapsed. Dozens of Song soldiers were unable to dodge and were buried under the collapsed mud wall.
Wanyan Alupu was overjoyed and shouted: "Kill three thousand more people!"
Three thousand more Jurchen soldiers rushed out from the darkness, carrying dozens of simple long ladders. Ladders were erected on the cliff. The ant-like enemy troops struggled to climb up. The Song army used steel forks to climb up.
Extrapolating, the Jurchen soldiers below are desperately holding down the ladder.
"Use a powder keg!" Yang Zaixing shouted.
The soldiers lit the match one after another, and the match burned. When it reached the red line at the bottom, the soldiers threw the gunpowder barrels down.
"Boom! Boom!"
Gunpowder arrows exploded in the crowd one after another, poisonous nails flew everywhere, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and ladders were blown to pieces.
At the other end, Liu Cui directed the soldiers to pour down dozens of barrels of kerosene, throw down a dozen torches, and throw down dozens of bundles of fodder. The flames spread rapidly, and the Jurchen soldiers howled in the fire. Countless people were covered in fire.
The soldier cried and ran outside. After running a few steps, he fell to the ground, huddled up and gradually died.
Wanyan Alupu was so furious that he didn't care whether the soldiers were dead or alive. He used nearly a hundred trebuchets and the last section of the wall collapsed. He killed another five thousand soldiers, carried hundreds of ladders, and climbed up crazily.
Ten thousand Jurchen soldiers launched an all-out attack. Fires shot into the sky, thick smoke filled the air, and explosions occurred one after another. Ladders were constantly being overturned. Song soldiers also went all out. They were constantly shot by arrows and fell down the cliff screaming.
.
A soldier ran to Yang Yuanqing and shouted: "General Yang, the north has been breached!"
Yang Yuanqing was shocked and shouted: "Follow me!"
He led three hundred soldiers and rushed to the north. The three northernmost ladders were connected into one, breaking through the defense of the Song soldiers. Dozens of Jurchen soldiers rushed up the cliff. Three ten-man teams fought desperately to intercept, but they rushed up
There were more and more Jurchen soldiers, and the Song army soldiers were killed and retreated steadily, and they could no longer withstand it.
Yang Yuanqing roared, brandished his long gun and went in. Three hundred of his subordinates also rushed forward, replacing more than half of the Song army's casualties, and immediately reversed the situation. Instead, they killed the Jin soldiers and forced them to retreat. Several Jurchen soldiers stepped on the air.
Screaming and falling off the cliff.
At this time, Chen Qing was standing on the slope, looking warily at the two thousand cavalry who were gathering in front of him. Chen Qing was most worried about the slope here. Although he had created a blockade with fire, it might be effective against the infantry, but what about the cavalry?
Chen Qing was not sure.
"General Wang, go and push up the bed crossbow!"
Chen Qing gave the order, and Wang Duo immediately led the soldiers to carry the crossbow.
‘Woo——’ a low horn sounded.
The cavalry suddenly launched into action, and hundreds of cavalry rushed toward the ramp at lightning speed.
"not good!"
Chen Qing shouted in a low voice and shouted sternly: "The divine arm crossbow is ready to shoot!"
The cavalry was sent by Han Chang. He and Wanyan Alupu had differences. He insisted on sending the cavalry to attack from the slope, but Wanyan Alupu was stubborn and insisted on attacking from the side.
Neither of them could convince the other, so they had to go their separate ways.
The five hundred Jurchen cavalry were like an incoming sandstorm. With their superb riding skills, they jumped over the burning flames and swept towards the camp gate.
The moment they rushed out of the black smoke, Chen Qing shouted, "Shoot!"
The five hundred god-armed crossbow troops fired the first round of arrows, which immediately caused people to flip over. The arrows penetrated the black smoke. The screams of war horses and the screams of soldiers were also heard in the black smoke.
The five hundred divine arm crossbow army is like a precise machine. One hundred arrows are shot out, followed by the second section of one hundred arrows, followed by the third section...
Arrows rained like lightning, and groups of cavalry fell down in the fierce fire. The air was filled with the strong smell of burnt flesh, and more than twenty Song soldiers continued to throw down tree trunks more than one foot long.
Han Chang was unmoved and continued to send cavalry upwards to attack. More and more cavalry were killed, but they were getting closer and closer to the mud bag wall, and fire and powerful crossbows could not stop the cavalry.
More than a dozen Jurchen cavalry jumped up while trampling on corpses several feet high, jumped over the mud bag wall, stretched their bows and fired arrows in mid-air. The spear soldiers of the Song Army fell down one after another after being hit by arrows. Chen Qing roared and rode in.
Among the enemy troops, Changsha flew up and down, killing seven or eight people in a row, with blood and brains splattering all over his body.
Behind him, five hundred Song soldiers formed a large formation with spears, and fought against the enemy troops who came in one after another. The fire on the hillside gradually weakened, and more and more cavalry came up, and the divine arm crossbow soldiers suffered serious injuries.
Casualties: more than a hundred people were killed by enemy cavalry in just one cup of tea.
"The God Arm Crossbow soldiers retreat! Retreat!"
Chen Qing shouted, and the remaining three hundred or so divine arm crossbow soldiers quickly retreated from both sides.
Seeing that the divine arm crossbow soldiers had retreated, Chen Qing ordered again: "Light the kerosene! Light the kerosene in the trench!"
He now had to build a fire wall to stop the cavalry from behind from rushing in. There were hundreds of barrels of kerosene in the trench. Several Song soldiers rushed in and split the barrels with axes, and black kerosene spurted out.
The Jurchen cavalry also realized that something was wrong, and fired rapidly, killing several soldiers in the trench.
A soldier held a torch and climbed onto the mud bag desperately. Suddenly, an arrow hit his vest from behind. The Song soldier screamed and jumped into the trench holding a torch.
‘Boom!’ The fire oil overflowing from the trench burned rapidly, and the flames soared, turning the entire entrance of the camp into a sea of flames, and the Jurchen cavalry behind them could not rush in.
Nearly two hundred Jurchen cavalry and Song soldiers fought fiercely, with blood and flesh flying everywhere on both sides, and corpses strewn on the ground. Wang Duo suddenly shouted from behind, "All brothers, get down!"
The soldiers of the Song Army had been trained and lay down one after another. Chen Qing turned his horse and rushed out from the side. A hundred crossbows were fired at the same time, and five hundred dense and powerful jackdaw arrows were shot into the enemy cavalry. Groups of war horses and
The cavalry fell.
Immediately afterwards, another round of jackdaw arrows was fired, and all the remaining Jurchen cavalry were shot down. The entrance to the military camp suddenly became quiet.
