Chapter 561: Knowing that I have sinned against myself, only the spring and autumn period
"Anyone who is the former will be shot to death regardless of Hu Han!"
Yu Yanyi gave the order with a slightly trembling voice.
The voice is trembling, but the tone is firm and firm!
All the soldiers looked at Yu Yanyi hesitantly. He used his strong bow and crossbow to shoot down his own people. This was a shameful thing in the world. Even if he had orders from his superiors, they would not dare to be the first to fire arrows.
people.
A bad thing is something that will be remembered for eternity!
Seeing that there was still no arrow rain falling on the city wall, Hou Jin became even more proud and arrogant, waving scimitars, spears and maces, and kept making strange roars in his mouth, showing his arrogance!
When Yu Yanyi saw this, he immediately grabbed the strong bow from a general beside him.
The three-stone bow is as strong as an elbow, and the bow is like a crescent moon, arrows, and meteors!
With just one arrow, Yu Yanyi killed a Mohe centurion.
This is the power of the orthodox civil servants of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The rituals, music, and imperial writings are all perfect.
The original arrogance of the Mohe noble clan dissipated in an instant, and they hid themselves and blended in with the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"Don't be afraid! They don't dare to shoot arrows at us!"
The commander in charge of the attack immediately commanded his troops and moved forward again.
Seeing this, Yu Yanyi opened his bow again. His hands were steady and not trembling at all, but his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes.
"Whoosh!"
An armor-piercing cone-shaped arrow penetrated the throat of a Zhou people!
"Whoever takes a step forward will be killed without mercy!"
Then he turned to look at the soldiers on the city wall, "Those who disobey in battle will be beheaded immediately!"
I will bear the infamy throughout the ages!
Yu Yanyi stood at the top of the city and suddenly fell to his knees.
The Lord of Heaven and Earth is his master, and the rest are not allowed to kneel, but Yu Yanyi knelt down.
This minister, who was under one person but over ten thousand people in the Great Zhou Dynasty, was in charge of the seven states and was in charge of the deployment of troops and horses in the world. He was not the chief minister of the cabinet, but had more power than the chief minister of the cabinet. He knelt down in front of a group of common people.
"Fellows and fellow villagers, it is my fault that I am incompetent in Yanyi, that I cannot help the people in distress, that I am unable to rescue the people, and that I have saved you all from the butcher's knife of Mohe. However, there are still millions of Zhou people in the city, and there are still ten people in the city.
Tens of thousands of soldiers will be destroyed once the city is destroyed, and all lives will be in ruins!"
Yu Yanyi closed his eyes and kowtowed to the desperate people below.
This gift also means that their life is completely cut off!
"Fire the arrow!"
Following Yanyi's order, arrows rained down from the tower again.
One after another, innocent people of the Zhou Dynasty fell under the arrows of the soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty.
There was despair, resentment, and confusion in his eyes.
Despair means the loss of life, resentment that the bandits are shameless, and confusion as to why the Zhou soldiers shot them with their own hands.
They are the biggest victims in this battlefield.
On the city tower, Yu Yanyi looked at the people of the Zhou Dynasty who fell under his orders one by one. His face was like a flat lake, and his heart was bleeding. The choice that he did not regret did not mean that he would not be heartbroken.
"How dare he? How dare he?! How dare he risk the disapproval of the world?!" Kong Youde miscalculated. In his plan, the Zhou army would at least shrink back because of these people. Think of Yanyi.
People who cherish famous places and their fate will be more afraid of history and will throw themselves at the rat.
But now Yu Yanyi's reaction made his plan come to nothing. When the Zhou army was not restrained by these people, these people became a burden to Mohe and hindered the attack of Mohe soldiers.
A quarter of an hour later, the arrow rain stopped.
Under the city wall, corpses were strewn everywhere.
The corpses of Mohe soldiers and Zhou people lay staggered on the ground.
Thinking that it would be inconvenient to hold a shield among the common people, these three thousand Mohe elite soldiers only wore armor and carried swords. They were all lost under the strong crossbows and hard bows of the Zhou army.
The original battlefield fell into a brief silence.
Yu Yanyi looked at the corpse under the city wall, "Zheng!" There was a soft cry, the sword on his waist was unsheathed, and he looked directly at the sword body, as if he were climbing a high mountain and looking down into the abyss.
There are seven stars shining faintly on it, corresponding to the Milky Way and the Beidou.
"I'm telling you again that after this battle, all the armies of the Great Zhou Dynasty will plow the court and sweep the caves, and massacre all the Mohe tribes. No women, children, old or young will be spared. All the consequences will be borne by this governor. Now! Kill me!!
"
Yanyi's actions today and his blunt remarks today are destined to cause the world to boil.
Even a hundred years later, he will become a controversial figure in history books, with mixed praise and criticism, and endless debate!
However, Yu Yanyi no longer cares about the merits and demerits of right and wrong, which will be commented by later generations.
Knowing that I have sinned, only the spring and autumn!
"Mr. Kong! What should we do now?!"
Nur Haqi was really panicking at this moment. He did not expect that Yu Yanyi would dare to issue such an order!
Since the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has become popular, and the teaching of benevolence and righteousness has become the mainstream thought.
After the Sui and Sui Dynasties, even in the wars of annihilation of the country, it was rare to massacre the entire clan and exterminate their descendants. Instead, the focus was on inclusiveness, education and inclusion.
Yu Yanyi's move can be regarded as the first of its kind in nearly a thousand years.
If this battle cannot be won, then when the Great Zhou Dynasty comes to its senses, his Mohe tribes will not be destroyed under the iron hoof of the Central Plains Dynasty like the Huns and Turks.
Although Nur Haqi has always had the ambition to conquer the Central Plains, he also knows that it is not an easy task. Therefore, Nurhaqi's mentality is more to strike three poles first if there is no date. Anyway, there is a retreat like Jianzhou.
, if they lose the battle and cannot win, they will return to Jianzhou.
Jianzhou was bitterly cold, and Zhou Dynasty had never had much interest in this kind of land.
So when he heard this, Nurha was completely stunned!
Kong Youde was also panicked. He was dealing with aliens like this, let alone dealing with him as a traitor. Since ancient times, traitors have always been more hateful than aliens!
But he couldn't show it. Instead, he comforted Nurha and said, "Prince Qing, don't panic. Don't forget that we still have the advantage. If we want to deal with Daikin, we have to see if they have a chance to fight from now on."
He survived, and when we captured this old guy and completely defeated Zhou Ting, everything he said was just a joke."
Kong Youde's words aroused Nur Haqia's ferocity. Since there was no way out, he had no choice but to do it!
"Warriors! Kill me! The first one to climb the city wall will be awarded the title of Captain of Ten Thousand Miles, and will be rewarded with thousands of miles of gold, five thousand cattle and sheep, and thirty beauties!" Nur Haqi pulled out the scimitar in his hand and ordered an all-out attack.
.
"Fire the arrow!"
The battle became fierce again.
But Yu Yanyi, who was on the city wall, took off his helmet at this time, "The crime of massacre of civilians today was all committed by this governor and had nothing to do with the other officers and men! For the time being, I will cut off my head and apologize for my crime.
Someday, when Uuchi Chenghei and I go to Yusi to apologize again! Now, kill me!"
The soldiers of the Zhou army on the city wall no longer had any scruples. They used bows, crossbows, and rolling logs and stones to greet the Mohe soldiers in the face.
After knowing that the Zhou army would not be worried about the common people, the Mohe people did not continue to drive the Zhou people from the slave camp. The two sides continued to attack and defend like yesterday, but it was more brutal than yesterday's attack and defense.
Kong Youde's trick failed in front of Yanyi. Now that Mohe and Dazhou were determined to fight to the death, the only way left was to attack by force.
"kill!"
After yesterday's attack and today's filling by the people of Dazhou, the moat has basically been filled with sandbags and corpses.
The difficulty of the Mohe clan's siege is actually much smaller!
"Kill" followed the ladders set up on the city wall, and the Mohe soldiers began to climb up the ladders. All the Mohe soldiers who attacked the city were issued with Zhou's standard wooden shields and iron shields to resist arrows.
The Mohe people are good at riding and shooting for fishing and hunting, but they are not good at climbing ladders, and they have not received corresponding training.
In other words, Nur Haqi did not expect that his sneak attack could gain such a big advantage in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was as if God was helping him. It was not until Jinyang City that he encountered a hard problem.
One by one, the Mohe soldiers bravely climbed up the ladder. The soldiers of the Zhou army in Jinyang City above dropped rolling stones and wood from time to time, directly injuring several Mohe siege soldiers.
The projectile of the powerful crossbow greatly hindered the progress of the siege!
Upon seeing this, Nurha Zha waved his command flag and ordered the elite Eight Banners cavalry under his command to run back and forth under the city wall and shoot arrows at Jinyang City.
The people selected this time were all the experts in the Eight Banners Cavalry who were good at riding and shooting. Nur Haqa’s strategy really worked!
Countless feather arrows came from the bottom up. Since when they were thrown, the upper bodies of Zhou's soldiers would be exposed and separated from the protection of the vertical shields. Therefore, one or two out of ten soldiers who were thrown downwards would be killed by the Mohe Rangers who were riding back and forth below.
The bow and arrow hit.
Veteran Zhao Tianlin waved his hand and said, "Putt!"
The push rod is a siege tool used against the simple ladders of the Mohe people. Although the Mohe people learned a lesson this time and asked two soldiers to support them at the bottom of the ladder, they do not understand classical mechanics after all. How can they fight against the rules of heaven?!
Seeing that one person was struggling to use the push rod, the general on the city wall waved his hand, and the two used the push rod together, replicating yesterday's scene again, with simple ladders overturned.
Nur Hachi had no choice but to play his cards again.
A group of soldiers who had received emergency training pushed a ladder truck equipped with the Zhou army's standard toward the city wall. The Mohe tribe in front held shields and set up flat wooden boards on the moat for the ladder truck to pass.
When Zhao Tianlin on the city wall saw this scene, he immediately ordered the sharpshooters on the city wall to shoot arrows at the person pushing the ladder truck.
However, the Mohe soldiers were well prepared and set up several large shields beside the ladder. Even if someone was hit by an arrow, someone from behind would immediately fill the gap.
The lower plate of the ladder truck is stable and has a mechanism that can firmly lock the ladder above. The upper end of the ladder has two claw-like structures that can firmly hold the city wall.
The homemade ladder truck push rod for Da Zhou didn’t work at all!
Although Dazhou's things are useful, it feels very unpleasant to be used against yourself!
At any time, nearly a hundred ladder trucks climbed onto the city wall, and densely packed Mohe soldiers began to climb along the ladder trucks.
Not only the Dongzhengmen on the front was attacked, but Dongzhaomen on the side and Nan'anmen on the south were attacked by the Mohe army.
The battle at Dongzhaomen was also extremely fierce.
The person who presided over the attack on Dongzhaomen was Heshi Liezhining. This person was not a close confidant of Nur Haqi. He was the son-in-law of the late Jin Dynasty Marshal Shen Wang Wanyan Zongbi.
Strictly speaking, he is one of Nurhaji's political opponents, so Nurhaji placed him in Dongzhaomen, which is second only to Dongzhengmen in terms of combat situation, and did not give him additional troops, in order to consume his own troops. .
The battle at Dongzhaomen has become extremely fierce, and a large number of Mohe soldiers have crossed the moat.
"Tell the warriors at the front that whoever is the first to storm the city tower and break through Dongzhaomen will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, three thousand cattle and sheep, and five hundred kilograms of tea! He will be made a captain of ten thousand men!"
The situation on the battlefield gradually turned against our own side, which made Heshi Liezhining even more eager to capture Jinyang City in one battle and show Nur Haqa, a defeated villain, so he became more and more eager to destroy the city.
As the saying goes: Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man.
Under the huge bounty of Heshi Liezhining, the Mohe soldiers' offensive became more fierce. A group of Mohe soldiers, led by their centurion, successfully broke into the city gate. The centurion held a giant axe. , with continuous chops, he actually cut off the chains on the suspension bridge and lowered the suspension bridge!
Yes, this giant ax is also a masterpiece produced by Shosakumon!
Once the drawbridge is lowered, the battering ram can cross the moat through the drawbridge, go directly to the city gate, and start hitting the city gate.
Although the Zhou army on the city wall tried their best to stop it with bows, crossbows, wood and stones, they still let the Mohe soldiers, who were heavily rewarded, transport the siege ram to the city gate!
"Dong...dong..."
The sound of heavy banging on the city gate began to sound under Chu Ting City.
King Chu on the city wall couldn't help but glance at the city gate below.
"Your Highness, don't worry! Yu Shuai ordered people to inspect the city gate a long time ago. Three days ago, in order to prepare for the war, the city gate was reinforced again! Two more door bolts were added. If we want to rely on this battering ram to attack the city, Blasting open the gates of Chu Ting in a short period of time is nothing more than a daydream."
Seeing that King Chu was a little worried about the city gate, Guo Jing opened his mouth to comfort him.
Dongzhaomen is the battlefield second only to Dongzhengmen. Guo Jing was sent here to assist the King of Chu.
The King of Chu nodded and continued to command the army on the city wall.
He himself also knew that as long as he was still on the city wall, it would be the greatest encouragement to the morale of the Zhou army.
The legitimate son of Emperor Zhou fought on the front line with the soldiers, which made all the soldiers of Zhou Dynasty rise up to fight!
As the offensive intensified, Heshi Liezhining also dispatched a large number of archers below the city wall and continuously fired arrows above the city wall to suppress the Zhou army at the top of the city.
There were only a thousand elite soldiers of the Shenwu Army at Dongzhao Gate. These people, the Longwu Army, and the Yulin Army were reorganized into the Jinyang Army and were regarded as reserve forces by the King of Chu.
It's not time to use them yet, the most brutal battle of city wall attack and defense is the time for them to take action.
At this moment, most of the city walls were occupied by Beiman troops and Beicao troops from Jingchu and Chu states. No matter in terms of fighting will or combat power, they could not match the elite troops of Mohe who had experienced battles for a long time.
As the fighting lasted longer, the morale of the troops was still wavering.
"Pour the golden juice!"
Seeing that many Mohe soldiers were about to climb up the city wall, Chu King Zhu Zhangui decided to use the big killer weapon Guo Jing sent to cook.
On the city wall, the soldiers covered their mouths and noses with strips of wet cloth. This gold juice was really a weapon of mass destruction, and it would also cause damage to one's own side. If they did not cover their mouths and noses, they might lose their combat effectiveness due to vomiting.
Then a heady smell filled the city wall.
I didn't feel much at all because the lid was tightly closed, but now I suddenly opened the lid and it immediately changed.
The Mohe soldiers who were climbing suddenly smelled a foul smell. When people smell a strange smell, they always sniff hard subconsciously, and something will happen if they smell it.
The extremely strong stench penetrated directly into the brains of the Mohe soldiers through the sense of smell. In an instant, five or six out of ten Mohe soldiers vomited out, which immediately caused a chain reaction on the battlefield.
In an instant, the Mohe soldiers on the ladder began to vomit one after another. The golden juice offensive had already become so powerful before it was actually launched.
The so-called golden juice is to collect feces and heat it in a large vat until it boils.
Due to the high temperature and large contact area, it is easy to burn the enemy and cause bacterial infection. In addition, what is even more terrifying is its psychological offensive. Can you imagine the scene of boiling grain reincarnation objects falling from the sky?
Some soldiers with low psychological quality are likely to collapse directly!
The Mohe soldiers experienced this scene.
The city defense soldiers covered their mouths and noses with wet cloths, endured the stench, and poured ladles of boiling golden juice down the ladder.
The Mohe soldiers who were climbing the ladder saw something pouring down from above and subconsciously raised their shields to resist.
However, since Heshi Liezhining was not a direct descendant of Nurhaqa, the equipment allocated to the Zhou army was not very much.
Many of them still use rattan shields, and only a few have iron shields and armor.
Although this shield can block swords, guns and arrows to a certain extent, the shield is full of gaps and cannot stop the pouring of golden juice at all.
The boiling golden juice was poured on the bodies of the Mohe soldiers, and screams began one after another under the city wall where the sound of vomiting had been heard.
The skin of these Mohe soldiers was reddened by the gold juice. Large areas of redness, swelling and blisters appeared on the skin, and severe peeling occurred over large areas.
However, this is only the first step, and the lethality of golden juice is far more than that.
Once the wounds of soldiers who were scalded by gold juice were not treated or treated improperly, they would ulcerate due to the gold juice and eventually die of infection.
This is the power of the golden juice, a weapon used to defend the city. It can be called a biological and chemical weapon of mass destruction.
Heshi Liezhiningrao was a veteran on the battlefield, and he couldn't bear to see this tragic scene.
However, although this golden juice is powerful, the quantity is limited after all, and it cannot be used unlimitedly. Soon, the golden juice on the city wall will be used up!
The Mohe army's offensive became fierce again. Under the temptation of a heavy reward, a centurion took off his obstructive iron armor and personally led his men to the ladder to climb the city wall.
At this moment, Zhou Jun's gold juice has been exhausted, it is a good opportunity to ascend the city!
The Mohe soldiers who kept shooting arrows at the city wall to suppress the Zhou army saw how brave their centurion was and immediately stepped up their shooting to contain the Zhou army.
"Kill!" The centurion who led the army to attack the city bravely took advantage of the golden juice to finish pouring, and immediately climbed up the ladder with a scimitar in his mouth, holding a rattan shield in one hand, and climbed up quickly with the other hand.
Ladder.
When he was about to reach the city wall, he jumped up and climbed onto the city wall.
When the Mohe army saw the first person attacking the city wall, they immediately let out loud and strange screams. They had just been attacked by Jin Zhi.
This centurion was even more excited. What he had just crossed was not only a city wall, but also a door to wealth and wealth for the nobility. Becoming a captain of ten thousand meant entering the upper class of Houjin.
Golden cattle and sheep and noble status are beckoning to him.
Just when he thought he could get what he wanted, the elite soldiers of the Shenwu Army, who were recuperating and ready in the rear, set a small barrier to his door to wealth - from the siege of dozens of fully armed elites.
