Water Margin people

"You can't bring many people over this kind of terrain!"

Yang Zhi looked at Yue Fei and said, according to the terrain mentioned by Orion just now, the team of more than a hundred people in the past was in trouble. It was too dangerous for more than a hundred people to face an army of [-] Jurchens.

"Indeed, the number of people is too small. Even if it is a sneak attack, the effect will be limited. Such a risk is not worth the gain!"

Lin Chong also said that they were very concerned about this junior brother, and the war was far from being such a risky situation.

"I just went for a sneak attack. I just can't stand Jin Wushu's arrogance!"

However, Yue Fei insisted on going. Jin Wushu was very arrogant today, so how could he do it without giving him some color?

"Don't be too impetuous. Look at the weather. There are dark clouds. It won't snow tomorrow. This mountain road is already difficult to travel. If it snows, it will be even more difficult!"

Lin Chong pointed to the sky. The sky has been covered with dark clouds these days, the temperature is getting lower day by day, and a heavy snowfall is already in sight.

"Isn't this better? The mountains are blocked by heavy snow, and the enemy will definitely not be prepared!"

Yue Fei was just happy after hearing this, not afraid at all.

"Report, military advisor, leader, my brother has captured Xijin Mansion, has recovered the Yanyun lands in Hebei, and the people from Northern Liao are fleeing westward!"

A soldier came to report on horseback.

"So fast!"

Everyone was pleasantly surprised. The purpose of this war was the Yanyun Sixteenth Prefecture. Now the purpose of the war has been achieved.

"Stop trying to persuade me, I've made up my mind!"

When Yue Fei heard the news, he could no longer listen to the dissuasion. The Yanyun war was over. Although they had captured Pingzhou, the Jurchens were now approaching the city. How could they not fight back?

"You really think about it?"

Li Zhu looked at Yue Fei and asked.

"Of course I've thought about it. I'll take a hundred elite soldiers there. It won't be a problem to climb over these mountains!"

Yue Fei said, he had made up his mind.

"Okay, go get ready!"

Li Zhu did not stop him. Yue Fei's idea was like Wei Yan's Ziwu Valley Strategy during the Three Kingdoms period. Although it was risky, war was full of uncertainties, and high risks often meant high rewards.

Li Zhu is not Zhuge Liang, and he approves of taking risks.

"Brother, please take us for a ride. Don't worry, we only need to climb over Linyu Mountain! You won't be allowed to participate in the battle!"

Yue Fei looked at the hunter and said.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The little one hunts in the mountains all year round and often goes into the mountains in winter!"

The hunter immediately assured that autumn and winter are good seasons for hunting, especially after it snows, and the traces of animals in the mountains can be seen at a glance.

"Okay, you lead the way, these are all yours!"

Yue Fei took two large ingots and said, each one has 50 taels.

"Thank you king!"

The Orion quickly caught the two ingots thrown over. This was 100 taels of silver. For an Orion family, this was a huge fortune.

Yue Fei left with Orion. No one doubted that Orion, because the area within Yuguan was Liangshan's territory, and Orion's family, young and old, were all here, so it was impossible for him to have any different intentions.

In the second half of the night, the northwest wind picked up. After half an hour of howling, heavy snow fell.

At dawn, the earth was completely white.

Jin Wushu frowned when he saw that there was already more than an inch of snow on the ground. This heavy snow was not conducive to his attack on the city gate.

"Commander, why don't you wait first?"

The general on the side looked at Jin Wushu and said, the heavy snow is still continuing, it is really unwise to attack the city at this time.

"No, the enemy was frightened yesterday. We must attack the city gate today!" Jin Wushu shook his head and said. We don't know how long this snow will last. It is normal for snow to fall in the north for a few days. It is likely to accumulate snow by then. If it's a foot or two thick, then this battle will drag on for who knows how long.

"We can't let this stalemate continue. Father's side will soon attack Yanyun!"

Jin Wushu thought in his heart that now that the four capitals of the Liao Kingdom were in their hands, they were bound to win the Nanjing Road, and he could not fall behind.

The cannon stone cart was pushed out again, followed by various caves, goose carts, side bridges, and ladders.

"Are you preparing to attack the city?"

Above Yuguan, everyone was a little puzzled when they saw the Jurchens coming in the wind and snow. This kind of weather was not suitable for attacking the city.

"There's something wrong with those instruments. The Jurchens shouldn't be so brainless! They forcefully attack the city in this weather!"

Zongze said, although he didn't know much about the Jurchens, the Jurchens were definitely not stupid for being able to defeat the Liao Kingdom like that in just a few years.

"Pull out the artillery! Aim at those cannon-rock trucks! Let these people see the power of our artillery."

Li Zhu opened the mouth and said.

Cannons were pushed up Yuguan one by one.

The heavy snow blocked his sight. Jin Wushu could only see the crowds of people above Yuguan, but he did not see clearly the artillery. The Jurchen soldiers still pushed their equipment forward.

"Fill the medicine stones and get ready to beat the drum!"

Jin Wushu waved his hand and ordered that he would use cannon-rock carts to push back the defenders on the city wall first, and then let the dongzi, goose carts, and side bridges come forward to fill in the ravines, cover the soldiers approaching Yuguan, and then let the rear Climb the ladder to attack the city.

"Boom boom boom!"

A burst of artillery sounded, and Jin Wushu was startled. The war drums on his side hadn't sounded yet. According to the rules, the war drums were beaten one round by the cannon and the stone chariot.

With the sound of the artillery, the Jurchen front line suddenly became chaotic, and the artillery-rock truck in front was beaten to pieces by the artillery on Yulin.

"No, the enemy's artillery! Beat the drum and fight back!"

Jin Wushu ordered that the enemy did not dare to fight back after yesterday's beating. He thought the enemy came in a hurry and did not bring heavy weapons.

War drums sounded, but before the artillery machine on the Jurchen front had time to fire, the Liangshan artillery fire above Yuguan fired another round, and the shells once again caused chaos on the Jurchen front.

"continue!"

Li Zhu looked at the Jurchen front line that was hit by artillery and continued to order, today they will also have a fire suppression.

Thirty Jurchen artillery machines were all reduced to debris under several rounds of artillery bombardment.

"Commander, the enemy's artillery is fierce!"

The frontline soldiers came back and said, the enemy's artillery was so powerful that they had no chance to fight back.

"Goose Che, Dongzi, and Ladder come forward and kill me!"

Jin Wushu roared, the enemy's artillery was powerful, he couldn't defeat the enemy from a long range, so he could only fight in close combat. As long as he got under the city gate, the artillery was useless.

War drums sounded, and the Jin army shouted trumpets and pushed forward with goose carts, caves, and ladders.

These equipment are actually modified chariots. The goose chariot is a large chariot covered with cowhide and iron sheets. The soldiers hide in it to protect against arrows, crossbows, rolling stones and wood.

The cave is a special chariot, wrapped in the same cowhide and iron sheets, but there are no people hidden in the body, but earth, wood and stones, specially used to fill in the moat.

"I'm afraid these Jurchens don't know how powerful artillery is!"

Li Zhu said coldly.

The artillery bombarded the charging goose carts and caves.

The Jurchens had very little capital on these chariots. They used the best cowhide and iron sheets, and even bed crossbows could not penetrate them.

But artillery is a hot weapon, not a crossbow. Once it hit, the goose cart and the cave were instantly smashed to pieces, and a large number of the soldiers inside were killed.
