Under Jinzhou City, the military headquarters of the Northern Army has received news that the Jurchens are sending out large-scale troops!
"After all, they are still unwilling to give up the 70,000 elite soldiers in Jinzhou City! As far as I know, 20,000 of these 70,000 are pure Jurchen warriors! For the Jurchen tribe, 20,000 is already a big number.
!The essence that Wanyan Aguda can use
The number of soldiers would not exceed 100,000, but they had a lot of newly recruited slave troops, nearly 200,000. When they left Jianzhou City, they drove out another 100,000 people from Jianzhou City! With so many people coming to attack the city, we
There may also be a price to pay.
--" Hua Rong stood in front of the map and said with a smile.
"The Jurchens are finally coming!" Wu Dong felt a little excited.
They have been waiting here for a long time, and finally waited for this battle! The Jurchens are now Liangshan's biggest enemy. As long as the Jurchens are eliminated, the remaining Mongols, Xixia people, and the Song Dynasty will be insignificant!
"It doesn't matter if you pay a little price for this battle. As long as you can eliminate the goddess' power under the city, it will be worth it!" Wu Dong couldn't help but think of what Hua Rong said just now.
"Yes, as long as we can destroy their main army, it will be worth it even if we pay a hundred thousand people!" Hua Rong nodded.
"How will they attack the city? Just attack forward like this?" Wu Dong said.
"The possibility of a hard attack is very high. They will let the slave army rush forward and use the slave army to break through our fortress and trap! After that, their regular army will launch a formal siege, and the 70,000 Jurchen soldiers from Jinzhou City will come out
Mixed with them, their power will be greatly increased! Coupled with Wanyan Aguda's own ability and prestige,
With him here, I don’t know how this war will turn out? Or Wanyan Aguda will let 300,000 slave soldiers and Jianzhou people attack from all directions, use these people to attract our attention, and then his 100,000
The regular army will launch an attack from behind to eliminate the effective strength of our northern army." Hua Rong said.
"How should we deal with them?" Wu Dong frowned slightly and said.
"Grand Governor, we have set a trap for them!" Hua Rong said with a smile.
"Trap?" Wu Dong was stunned.
"Yes, it's a trap! Governor, in addition to the 300,000 soldiers under Jinzhou City, we also have hundreds of thousands of civilians here! These civilians staying below the city will affect the battle. I have ordered these civilians to leave Jinzhou City.
"Hua Rong said.
"You mean...using these hundreds of thousands of civilians to attract Jurchens?" Wu Dong said with a look of astonishment on his face.
"Not bad." Hua Rong nodded.
"This is not allowed! Those hundreds of thousands of people are here to help us. It is inappropriate for us to use them to attract Jurchens!" Wu Dong frowned.
"Grand Governor, we are just using those civilian men to attract the main force of the goddess! I will try my best to save the lives of these civilian men!" Hua Rong said.
"I still don't want to do this." Wu Dong said after being silent for a while.
"Grand Governor, these hundreds of thousands of civilians will not be in much danger! Moreover, even if they are in danger, even if some people die, it will be worth it if we can eliminate the powerful army of the Goddess! You should understand that if they are not eliminated,
I don’t know how many people will die in the future of the female main force army!" Hua Rong said.
After a long time, Wu Dong finally nodded. But there was a wry smile on his face. He knew that Hua Rong's words were "self-deception" and that Hua Rong only wanted to eliminate the Jurchens, so he used such words to comfort him and let him have nothing to worry about.
Agree to the request of the military department.

That night, the Jurchens stopped dozens of miles west of Jinzhou City, and Liangshan did not attack them.
The Jurchens stayed here for one night and one day. On the second night, the Jurchen army finally moved!
There was no moon or stars in the sky, it was extremely dark, and hundreds of thousands of people were heading towards Jinzhou City.
In the distance, you can only hear the footsteps of hundreds of thousands of people walking, and no one can be seen a hundred meters away.
The slave army, the common people of Jianzhou were at the front, and the Jurchen soldiers behind were constantly urging them.
"Jinzhou City is ahead. Your Majesty has already said that if Jinzhou City is captured, everyone will eat meat and drink wine!" the supervisor of the slave army shouted loudly.
After hearing the order from "His Majesty the Emperor," the slave soldiers started running forward. They were almost numb now. They just wanted to have a good meal and drink. That was enough!
Some slave soldiers have weapons in their hands, and some are bare-handed! If there are only one or two slave soldiers, they will never dare to rush forward, but there are many people and they are brave. With so many people together, everyone around them is rushing forward.
Running forward, even those who were timid didn't seem to be very scared at the moment.
The Jurchens originally thought that they would encounter an attack from Liangshan here, but in fact, they did not encounter a single Liangshan soldier all the way forward. The common people were numb and did not take it seriously, but the Jurchens who were supervising the battle behind were
It was a surprise.
Wanyan Zongwang was the commander-in-chief of this war. He was also very surprised. He didn't know what Liangshan was doing. According to his father's analysis, Liangshan must have prepared a large army here, but why couldn't he see Liangshan's army?
What about the army?
Do we have to fight to the gates of Jinzhou City to see the Liangshan army?
It had been half an hour since they set out. At this moment, a trap appeared in front of them, and countless slaves fell into it. These slaves screamed in agony! The slaves behind them couldn't stop, so they also followed.
Fall down, but the size of the trap here is limited. In a moment, hundreds of slaves filled the trap with their bodies, and the slaves behind continued to move forward.
Finally, the Jurchen army came to the fortress!
Even in the dark night, they could see the fortress ahead like a giant beast!
This fortress is extremely huge, almost equivalent to a small city! It took hundreds of thousands of civilians more than two months to build these three fortresses, and almost all the cement shipped from Goryeo was used up! The fortress is unusually large.
It is so strong that even continuous attacks with trebuchets will take a long time! This fortress can station 20,000 soldiers, and there are currently 20,000 crossbowmen in it.
The Jurchen army has already rushed to the fortress. Some people are heading towards the fortress, while others are going around from the side.
"Liangshan actually built such a huge fortress under Jinzhou City. It's almost like another city! They are really vicious! But we don't need to pay attention to this fortress at all. We can just go around it!" Wanyan Zongwang said secretly.

On top of the fortress, Hu Yanting was standing on the tower looking down, feeling a little nervous.
The Jurchen army was so large that he was a little surprised.
"Commander, there are many enemies below! Shall we bombard them now?" asked a soldier next to Hu Yanting.
"Wait a moment!" Hu Yanting said.
Although Hu Yanting is young, he has been in the army for several years, and his father Hu Yanzhuo has been teaching him since he was a child, so his military quality is very good. He knows that now is not a good time to fire.
"Get ready! Fire!" When the Jurchen army below became more and more numerous, Hu Yanting finally spoke!
The 30 artillery pieces on the fortress fired at the two wings together!
Suddenly, an earth-shattering sound rang out! There was only the sound of cannons between heaven and earth, and nothing else could be heard.
Countless slave soldiers were knocked to the ground, some died in a pool of blood, and the rest stood there blankly! By the time the second round of artillery sounded, countless slave soldiers had already turned around and ran back.
go!
"Supervise the team, prepare your bows and arrows! If anyone retreats, shoot them all to death!" Wanyan Zongwang said with a sneer.
He was also a little frightened. He had experienced the power of artillery when he followed his father to fight the Northern Army last year. This weapon was simply unrivaled! But last year, there were not many artillery in the Liangshan army. Now this
There were dozens of artillery pieces on the fortress. Under such a ferocious attack, the slave army suffered extremely heavy casualties!
The war team's bows and arrows had begun to fire fiercely. As a large group of slave soldiers fell there, the rest of the slave soldiers finally stopped and they rushed towards Jinzhou City again.
The sound of cannons continued, and apart from the sound of cannons there were screams, but no sounds of fighting were heard.
The battlefield was filled with the smell of blood, and the legs of the slave soldiers were shaking. They wanted to escape, but unfortunately they couldn't escape now! Only at this moment did they, the slaves, know how terrible the battlefield was!
They bypassed both sides, but they soon encountered extremely deep ditches on both sides of the fortress!
This ditch is more than ten feet deep and extremely wide, making it impossible to jump over it!
"Supervise the team, continue shooting arrows, and urge those untouchables to move forward! Huh, wait until those untouchables push themselves down and fill up the deep ditch in front with their bodies, then we will be able to pass!" Wanyan Zongwang said coldly.
He had no sympathy for those slave soldiers or the people of Jianzhou! In his heart, except for his own people, other Khitan people and Han people were no different from "animals" and "cattle and sheep".
They can kill people at will! He doesn't care about those people's lives at all!
"Stop pushing! Don't push!" The slave soldiers in front had already screamed in horror, but the people behind kept pushing forward, and finally a row of slave soldiers in front were pushed into the ditch.
Some slave soldiers still wanted to resist, but in such a large army, they were crowded with each other, and they couldn't move even if they wanted to resist! Some women even screamed in horror, and some looked numb, even if they were
