Chapter 760 Bloody Battle

Chapter 760 Bloody Battle

Chen Qing's siege of Wanyan Nianhan had entered the tenth day. The Jin soldiers were about to run out of food and had begun to kill horses for food. That afternoon, Wanyan Nianhan, who had been in a state of depression, sent someone to secretly find Ba Lisu.

"I guess the Song Army thinks that our military morale has collapsed, so they will definitely take it lightly. Tonight I will send out surprise troops to seize the exit, and then fight the Song Army fiercely."

Ba Lisu immediately understood that Marshal Du wanted him to fight. He quickly bowed and said: "I am willing to relieve Marshal Du's worries!"

"You led two thousand black-armored troops to sneak attack the Song Army's mountain pass at night, so you can't ride on horseback. After you succeed, I will personally lead 10,000 cavalry to meet you."

Wanyan Nianhan whispered his strategy to Ba Lisu again. Ba Lisu was under great pressure. He felt that Marshal Du was going to make a desperate move tonight.

It was not without reason that Wanyan Nianhan scheduled the sneak attack tonight. In the past few days, the night sky had been clear, the moonlight was bright, and the view at night was also very good.

But there was a light rain this morning, and the clouds became dense in the evening, covering all the stars and moonlight. Especially in the second half of the night, it was even more difficult to see the opponent. It was impossible to see the opponent from a few steps away. This was a God-given opportunity for a sneak attack.

At the first watch, the two thousand Jurchen black-armored cavalry gave up their horses. They bent down and ran along the cliff. When they were still one mile away from the mountain pass, they all lay down and crawled forward cautiously.

But what Wanyan Nianhan didn't know was that Chen Qing's military headquarters had a special staff and decision-making battalion to provide early warning for various situations. During this battle, thirteen soldiers joined the army.

Climate, terrain, and hydrology are all subjects of research by the army officers. Especially this time, the strategy to trap the enemy is to make full use of the terrain to attack the enemy. All details are basically planned by the army officers.

So when the weather became gloomy and dark clouds gathered, the soldiers who joined the army immediately noticed it. They immediately realized that this was an opportunity for the enemy to make a sneak attack. At noon that day, a report was submitted to Chen Qing.

Starting from the afternoon, the Song Army began to deploy in a targeted manner, and the two sharp weapons of kerosene and bed crossbows were already in place.

Chen Qing stood on the observation deck, staring at the official road of the canyon several miles away. The valley was dark. At this time, a bright red gunpowder barrel was thrown down from the mountain. This kind of gunpowder barrel was tied to a gunpowder arrow.

An enlarged version of the gunpowder stick, it looks very much like a long flashlight.

This kind of gunpowder barrel will not explode and is generally used to start fires, but it is also used for lighting under special circumstances, such as tonight.

The gunpowder barrel fell on the official road and burned with white smoke, emitting a bright fire that illuminated an area of ​​ten feet around. Before the Song soldiers could see clearly, it was suddenly extinguished.

Chen Qing immediately became vigilant and ordered: "There is an enemy situation!"

The commanding flag bearer raised three torches. In fact, Liu Cui also saw an abnormality. Normal extinguishment is that the flame gradually becomes smaller and then goes out. This time it went out suddenly. This must be because someone stepped on the powder barrel.

"Commander, there are orders from the observation deck!" a soldier shouted, pointing to the observation deck in the city.

Liu Cui nodded. This must be the order from the king. He immediately ordered: "Set arrows on the mountain!"

Arrows rained down from the top of the mountain, and thousands of them were shot towards the official road.

Ba Lisu gave a centurion two hard slaps in the face. The gunpowder barrel fell right next to the centurion. He instinctively stamped it out. Ba Lisu was furious. Didn't this tell Song

Army, is there anyone on the official road? You could explain it by just kicking me down the valley, but this bastard just kicked me down.

"Next time, you just jump off the cliff!"

The centurion was so frightened that he lowered his head and did not dare to say a word, but there would be no next chance. Suddenly, there was a scream from all around, and before Bazli could react, a stick fell and hit his helmet, and was stuck on the ground.

The man on the opposite side was shot in the neck by an arrow. He screamed, covered his neck and took a few steps back. He stepped on the air and fell off the cliff, letting out a long scream.

"Hurry up and get close to the wall!" Balisu shouted. He didn't care about alarming the Song army and shouted an order.

When the momentum of the arrows became slightly sparse, Pull Lisu gritted his teeth and yelled, "Come with me!"

He also knew that the front was extremely dangerous. All the previous cavalrymen were dead, but he had to charge. The arrow was already on the string and he couldn't help it. Besides, it was only about 500 steps away from the mountain pass. It was so dark that they might rush over, but he still hesitated.

Yu could only destroy his entire army.

He held up his shield and sword and ran forward quickly, and the soldiers behind him ran wildly with him. Once he started running, no matter how dark the night was, he could feel the shaking of figures. When he reached four hundred steps, he entered the range of the crossbow.

Five hundred bed crossbows were fired from the side at the same time, and 2,500 jackdaw arrows swept across. The shields could not withstand it, and there was a scream, and five or six hundred people fell.

Ba Lisu ran extremely fast and avoided the crossbow sweep, but there was almost no one behind him. He did not wait and continued to move forward. His feet felt cold and he felt like he had stepped into a slimy muddy pond.

"It's fierce fire oil!"

A thought flashed through his mind, frightening him out of his wits. He ran like crazy and ran two hundred steps in one breath. The more than a thousand soldiers behind him did not have such good luck. Dozens of torches were thrown down, and a sea of ​​​​fire suddenly covered more than a thousand soldiers.

Swallowed.

Before the fire completely engulfed him, Ba Lisu miraculously rushed through the fire oil array. In front of him were five mud bag walls. He jumped up and jumped onto the mud bag wall. His shield blocked the two arrows that were poking at him.

Spear, 'Crack!' The sword chopped off a spear. He had just jumped off the mud bag wall when he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head. He stumbled and fell to the ground. At the moment when he was unconscious, he heard someone shouting, "

He’s a general, and he’s the one who catches him alive!”

Ba Lisu's eyesight went dark and he didn't know anything anymore.

The war was extremely brutal, and all two thousand black-armored soldiers were wiped out. However, Wanyan Nianhan did not give up and forced ten thousand cavalry to continue the attack. In this battle, there were explosions one after another, fires soaring into the sky, flames flying, arrows raining like rain, and drums.

The sound continued, and the shouts of killing were loud. The extremely brave Jurchen cavalry broke down five mud bag walls in succession, and fought a bloody battle on the official road with a spear formation of 5,000 Song troops. Both sides risked their lives and fought desperately on the official road.

The battle continued until noon the next day. All two thousand black-armored soldiers were killed. More than 8,000 of the 10,000 cavalry invested subsequently were killed, and nearly 4,000 of the Song army were killed. The Jin soldiers were no longer able to fight anymore, and Wanyan Nian had only a few talents.

We had to order our troops to retreat.

Chen Qing quickly came to the big tent and saw a tall Jurchen general sitting in a big tent, with his hands and feet tied behind his back, his head lowered and silent, while eight Song soldiers watched him nervously.

He was so strong that he broke free several times and almost snatched the soldier's knife. If it weren't for the golden belt of the Captain of Ten Thousands around his waist, the soldiers of the Song Army would have hacked him to death.

Chen Qing picked up a gold medal next to him, with the Chinese characters written on it as Pucha Bali Su, "Are you Ba Lisu, the commander of the Black Armored Army?" Chen Qing asked coldly.

Balisu raised his head in surprise, looked at Chen Qing, and asked, "Who are you?"

"You robbed me of 30,000 barrels of oil and you don't know who the culprit is?"

"Are you Chen Qing?"

Chen Qing nodded, "Exactly!"

Ba Lisu sighed and said: "I don't know how many Song troops died in my hands. Kill them if you want! I don't have any information for you."

"I don't need any information from you, and I won't kill you. On the contrary, I will let you go see Wanyan Nianhan and pass a few words to him for me."

"Stop dreaming, my marshal will not surrender."

Chen Qing ignored him and said slowly: "Tell him that I have sent 50,000 troops to cross the Yellow River to seize Pingyang Mansion. Maybe his family will be captured as well."

"Then what?"

"Then I don't need him to surrender. The word "surrender" hinders his identity. He can put down his weapons, surrender and become my prisoner of war. I will use him to negotiate with the Jin Kingdom and exchange for some important people."

"Hmph! The Emperor will not agree. He wishes we would all die on Shaanxi Road."

Chen Qing said lightly: "If he wants to die, I can help him. If he doesn't want to die, then he has hope of returning to the capital. Even if you pull away General Su, as long as the sincerity of Jin Guo's redemption is enough, I can let him go."

You go back."
