Dajin royal family

Chapter 618

The war between Jin and Xu was not a contest between ranks from the very beginning.Jiang Chengxiao could indeed march from Tongguan to storm Guanxiang, and then directly enter Luoyang, but in this way, there would be too many hidden dangers.

The first is Xu Guo's soldiers and horses stationed in Xingyang County, and the second is the Liang Guoguo in the south who continuously provides support to Xu Guo through Luyang Pass.The Northern Jin family had a great career, so it would be no problem if they really wanted to go to war with Xu and Liang at the same time.

But is that necessary?

Obviously, as long as you spend some effort, you can solve the problem better, why did Jiang Chengxiao fight with the supplies and the lives of soldiers from the Northern Jin Dynasty.

This is not the case now, through his micromanagement, all Zhao Yong's soldiers and horses originally stationed in Xingyang County were wiped out, and Luyang Pass, the strategic road between Xu State and Liang State, was also taken down.

It can be said that the current state of Xu has no way to heaven and no way to earth.

What surprised Jiang Chengxiao a little was that Li Yaoshi was too aggressive and was about to break into Nanjun in a short period of time. Xiao Tong was so frightened that he gave up the idea of ​​continuing to attack Luyang Pass to support Xu Guo.

With Liang Guo overwhelmed, only Luoyang is left in Xu Guo.

This time to attack Xu Guo, Jiang Chengxiao used about 25 troops, and did not directly mobilize 30 troops to go south as Xiao Tong and others imagined.

After Pei Yuanyan crossed the river, 17 troops gathered around Luoyang City one after another.After Yu Wenhua fled to Shan County after being defeated, he knew that Shan County was not safe. Soon after facing Xie Yingjing's attack, he left Shan County directly and returned to Luoyang with his younger brother.

On the frontal battlefield, the Northern Jin army suffered little damage, mainly because the 2 soldiers and horses who stood firm at Luyang Pass were severely injured. However, after Jiang Chengxiao learned that [-] people were killed in battle, Ma Zhu had led his army back to Luoyang, and he felt relieved tone.

He was still worried that Ma Zhu would desperately want to take down Luyang Pass. It seemed that Yu Wenshu's order was quite effective. Facing the siege of Luoyang, Yu Wenshu probably didn't care about Luyang Pass at the moment.

The army of the Northern Jin Dynasty lined up under the city of Luoyang, the banners were beating and hunting, and the cavalry, infantry, heavy cavalry, etc. were in order, and at a glance, there was a large area of ​​darkness, with no end in sight.

Outside the east gate of Luoyang, at the central position of the Northern Jin Army, a large banner stands.

Jiang Chengxiao rode on the horse, pulling the reins, exerting a little force on his legs, the horse walked lightly, and walked out of the army formation.

Behind him, Yu Chijing, Xie Yingjing, Pei Yuanyan, He Fubo, Wei Zhonghao, Han Su and others were all waiting in line.

What caught the eye was Jiang Heng, who was also riding on a tall horse. The little guy had a small body and a serious face.A pair of small hands tightly clutched the reins, eyes fixed on the father in front of him, and his lips were tightly pursed.

Tens of thousands of troops, in addition to the "crash" sound from the marching flag, there is also the sound of the nose of the horse.

Other than that, there was no more noise.

Jiang Chengxiao looked at Luoyang City with a calm expression, without any joy in destroying Xu Guo.In fact, in Jiang Chengxiao's view, it is only logical that he, who owns a family and most of the land in the world, wants to take down the country of Xu.

He just felt a little empty, a little melancholy.

At the head of Luoyang City, the sun was mixed, and the big flag with the word "Xu" fluttered weakly in the wind, and the soldiers at the head of the city were all in fear.

Now that the war has been fought, they basically understand what will happen in the future.

Jiang Chengxiao just looked at it for a while, then slowly raised his hand, looked at Xu Jun's soldiers with calm eyes, and seemed to be able to clearly see the terrified expressions on the faces of those soldiers from a distance of a hundred steps.

brush!
His palm fell suddenly, followed by the 'creak' and 'creak' sound of a catapult operating.Pieces of stones weighing seventy catties left perfect parabolic traces in the air and fell on the head of Luoyang City.

There was a 'boom', and a muffled sound came from far away.

Jiang Hengda didn't blink his eyes as he watched Luoyang City being bombarded with stones one after another.

He saw that some stones smashed the wall stacks, and some stones smashed on the solid city wall without leaving a trace.

Some people could be heard screaming indistinctly amidst the bombing.

Jiang Chengxiao didn't intend to attack Luoyang City by force. Now that Luyang Pass has been captured by himself, Liang Guo and Xu Guo are completely isolated, and Yu Wenshu is trapped in Luoyang City.

How long can he last?

The stones bombed day and night are not really bombing the city of Luoyang, but are bombing the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies of the Xu State, the hearts of the people of Luoyang, and the hearts of the hundreds of officials of the State of Xu.

In other words, he is attacking the spirit of the enemy.

This time, nearly a hundred catapults were used to bombard Luoyang City without intervals, and the soldiers only needed to transport the stones.

The bombing lasted for half an hour, when the east gate of Luoyang suddenly opened, and a large number of Xu Jun rushed in.

General Xu Jun also knew that the Northern Jin Army was consuming them.

Jiang Chengxiao looked at Xu Jun who was rushing towards him, with a trace of disdain on the corner of his mouth.

"Where is General Xie!"

"The end is here!"

Xie Yingjing cupped his fists, gave a military salute to Jiang Chengxiao's back, and immediately raised his horse high.

"Black Hawk Army!"

"Here!" Countless overlapping roars echoed between heaven and earth like huge waves.

"For the king's vanguard, eliminate traitors and thieves!" Xie Yingjing shouted suddenly: "Follow me to kill!"

The war horse under his crotch neighed and galloped out.

"kill!"

Riding on the black eagle, Wu Yangyang rushed out of the formation, and followed Xie Yingjing closely.

All of a sudden, dust billowed into the sky, the ground trembled, and sand and gravel exploded.

Jiang Heng only felt his ears 'buzz', and then his eyes blurred, and then he felt as if dust had entered his mouth, he quickly closed his lips and squinted his eyes.

There are boulders flying overhead, and the ground is full of massacres.

"Report, Your Majesty, there are enemy troops breaking out of Ximen"

"Enemy breakout at the North Gate"

"Enemy forces have broken through at the south gate"

A number of scouts came galloping one after another, reporting the situation of the other doors.

He had already been prepared for Xu Guo's desperate breakout situation.It is impossible for Yu Wenshu to accept his fate and wait for death from the beginning.

Like a man who falls into a river, you have to let him try to climb up.He will accept his fate only when he finds that it is impossible for him to climb ashore despite all his efforts.

"Yuchi Jing!" Jiang Chengxiao shouted suddenly.

"The end is here."

"Lead [-] soldiers and horses to the south gate!"

"Yes!"

"Uncle He Fu!"

"The end is here!"

With the order after order, the army changed and turned into three groups, and went to the other three gates to intercept and kill Xu Jun who was trying to break through.

This is a massacre.

In Jiang Heng's eyes, his father's words were cold and oppressive.The father's back is tall and blurry.The battlefield far away from my father was cruel and cold.

For a moment, he seemed to understand something, but also seemed to understand nothing.

Xu Jun's breakout battle didn't last too long before being killed in the bud by the Northern Jin Army. There were [-] to [-] soldiers who broke through from the four gates. After killing [-] to [-] soldiers, the rest all retreated into the city with no hope of breaking through.

With the four doors closed, Xu Jun's breakout failed.

The breakout failed, and the catapults of the Northern Jin Army were still working tirelessly. Big stones even crossed the high city wall and fell on the houses in the city. The frightened people stayed away from the foot of the city wall.

In the middle of the night, the catapults were still working, bombing the city wall continuously.

Jiang Chengxiao and his son stood beside the catapult, watching the athletes put big stones in the hands of the 'throwing arm', cut off the rope, and the big stones gained penetration with the lifting of the throwing arm, heading towards Luoyang City. head down.

After watching for a while, Jiang Chengxiao took Jiang Heng back to the main tent of the Chinese army.

"Do you have a question?" Jiang Chengxiao just sat down when he saw that his son's dark face was clearly puzzled.

"En." Jiang Heng nodded honestly.

"Tell me." Jiang Chengxiao smiled, he likes his son to think and ask more questions.

Jiang Heng said: "Father, my son thinks that Xu's soldiers can't beat ours, why don't they attack the city directly?"

"What do you think?" Jiang Chengxiao drank a glass of cold water, put down the teacup, and looked at his son calmly.

Jiang Heng was slightly taken aback, he asked because he was surprised about this matter, he didn't think ahead.

But since Dad asked, he naturally started to think about it immediately.

After a while, he said, "My child doesn't know."

With his current level of knowledge, it is normal for him not to be able to figure it out.

Looking at his son who was seriously talking about what he didn't know, Jiang Chengxiao hooked the corner of his mouth and waved towards the little guy.

Jiang Heng walked over.

Jiang Chengxiao put the teacup upside down on the table, looked at Jiang Heng and said, "Use your fist to knock hard."

"Ah?" Jiang Heng was taken aback, looking at his father puzzled.

"Try it." Jiang Chengxiao continued.

Jiang Heng gritted his teeth, clenched his fist, and slammed it on the teacup.

Boom!
There was a muffled sound, and the teacup was not broken.

"Does it hurt?" Jiang Chengxiao asked him.

Jiang Heng nodded, silently withdrew his small fist.

It hurts.

Jiang Chengxiao smiled, and immediately waved his arms violently, hitting the teacup heavily with his fist.

bump!
The teacup was smashed by the fist in an instant, it was torn apart, and the debris flew.
