Smelting and Exploding the Heavens

Chapter 235

These thousands of riders were all dressed in white armor, holding long spears in their hands. The formation was neat and murderous. At first glance, it was clear that they were definitely not mobs on the grassland.

The generals of the Jin army also knew that they were ambushed. Although their own troops were several times stronger than the opponent's, their equipment and combat power were not the same.

What's more, the fan flag that the other party was flying had already shown them which army it was. Fan Zhuoyuan's notoriety was now well known among the Jin people, so everyone was suspicious.

The general of the Jin army immediately ordered to retreat, but at some point, a group of soldiers and horses had detoured to their rear, blocking their retreat!
The Jin army had no choice but to charge forward, but the thousands of soldiers and horses on the opposite side were all heavily armored, and the formation was as tight as a wall, and the charge was unstoppable.

Just a wave of hedging, the Golden Army was defeated immediately, and their combat effectiveness was still much worse than that of the regular army.

Afterwards, the Xiaojie army who came chasing after them completed the outflanking of the defeated soldiers again, and it was useless to kill the enemy!
Seeing this, those nomads who were originally scattered immediately rushed back like a chicken blood to harvest the heads of the Jin army's defeated soldiers. With their riding skills and enthusiasm, the harvesting efficiency was much better than that of the Xiaojie army.

Thousands of heads were built into the Jingguan, and it was placed outside Yichun City. After showing off their might, the Xiaojie army went to the lower reaches of the Huntong River.

Wanyan Wu Qimai, who was camping in the wild, jumped up and cursed angrily when he received the news that the second-line army in the middle school had been wiped out.

Now he led an army of [-] to leave Shangjing, intending to intercept Fan Zhuoyuan's troops in the wild, but the Xiaojie army came and went without a trace, and there were rioting slaves and grassland nomadic tribes covering him.

As a result, warnings were issued everywhere, and Wanyan and Wu Qimai couldn't figure out the real movement of Xiaojie's army.

After hearing that the Xiaojie army defeated the second-line Jin army, they pursued downstream along the Huntong River.

Sure enough, a few days later, Wanyan Wu Qimai received the news that Tunhe Meng'an was attacked on Huligai Road in the north. To escape, the Jurchens were nearly wiped out.

Wu Qimai was terrified at this moment, Xiao Jiejun and others were only attacking the countryside before, so he ordered all areas to fortify the walls and clear the countryside, and the population retracted to the nearby cities.

This has greatly reduced the results of the Xiaojie army's various units, and it is difficult to plunder enough food and grass. Without food and grass, sooner or later they will show their tracks, and that is when the main force of their own side will show their power and chase them down.

Unexpectedly, the Xiaojie army had the ability to attack the city!
He looked at the collapsed city wall. It seemed that the city wall was lifted from the root by some terrible force, and then collapsed, unlike ordinary siege equipment.

Wu Qimai's face became very ugly, and he ordered the scouts to scatter hundreds of miles away to look for traces of the Xiaojie army, while he himself led the army to continue looking for clues by the Huntong River.

It is impossible for the actions of nearly ten thousand riders not to leave traces.

However, the hoof prints along the mixed river were divided into two groups, one went south, and the other went north after crossing the river.

The number of the two sides is almost the same, it seems that the troops have been divided, and it is impossible to judge which side is the main force.

When Wanyan Wu was begging for money and hesitated, one of the generals beside him said: "Your Majesty, since the gang of Song pigs are divided, then we will also divide our troops. In the end, the general is willing to command [-] soldiers and horses to wipe out part of the enemy army!"

Wanyan Wu Qimai frowned slightly, and finally shook his head and said: "How do you know that this is Fan Zhuoyuan's intentional trick, just to let us divide our troops to fight, so that we can disperse our forces and gather and annihilate some of them?
Don't forget, they incited slaves from all over the place, and attracted those grassland tribes. Who can tell which side is the Xiaojie army and which side is the grassland tribe? "

The people around were discussing with each other, and the member Jin just now was puzzled and said: "I heard that the main force of the Xiaojie army led by Fan Zhuoyuan is less than [-]. Could it be that [-] troops can't deal with it?"

Wanyan Wu Qimai sneered and said: "Marshal Lou Shi, who was unparalleled in the past, led the [-] elite, how much do you think you can deal with people like you?"

The personal guard on the side smiled awkwardly, "General Lou Shi is the God of War of our Daikin, and with those one-in-a-million elites under his command, let alone [-], even [-] can be leveled."

The next words were too prestige, so no one mentioned them again.

If the Xiaojie army could wipe out Wanyan Loushi and his one-in-a-million elite, then a mere [-] soldiers and horses chasing the Xiaojie army led by the devil Fan Zhuoyuan might not be enough for the opponent's teeth.

Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at the group of subordinates, sighed slightly, and then decided to chase south, because there are two Meng'an in the south, but the north is a wasteland, where only savages live.

Since the Xiaojie army has the ability to attack the city, no matter whether the army heading south is a suspect or not, the emperor cannot bear the consequences of multiple Mengan being breached.

In this way, his actions were completely under Fan Zhuoyuan's calculations.

After Fan Zhuoyuan broke through Tunhe Meng'an, He Lubu led a fine cavalry consisting of [-] Khitans and grassland warriors to lure the main force of the Jin army to the south. At the same time, he asked He Lubu to contact scattered grassland tribes. Get ready for the end.

And he rode a horse and led the remaining [-] soldiers and horses with the Han people as the main force, first went north, then turned back to the west, and went straight to the capital!

After the Raiders in Liaodong, his war horses were greatly supplemented, so it was impossible to judge the reality when the troops were divided.

And the purpose of this division of troops is to win Shangjing and occupy a favorable situation to force Wanyan Wu to beg for a decisive battle.

Seven thousand soldiers and horses attacked Shangjing City, which was garrisoned by [-] elite gold troops. No matter how you think about it, it is a fantasy.

But ever since Fan Zhuoyuan passed by the Huntong River and saw the city walls of Shangjing, he had full confidence.

The city walls of Shangjing City are far inferior to those of Yanjing during the rule of the Liao Dynasty. Because the Jin people were not good at building cities, and there was no need to defend the city after the Liao Dynasty was destroyed, the city walls of Shangjing City remained in their original state.

This city is not like the original history. After a large number of people from Yandi were captured and entered, the construction of the city wall was strengthened.

At this time, the city of Huining Mansion in Shangjing had a circumference of 22 li, the wall was no more than two feet high, and the city was more than one foot thick.A master with better lightness skills is enough to swim up the wall!

The most important thing is that the city is obviously relying on the Huntong River, but it has not diverted water to build a moat system. There are many horse faces on the city wall, and there are seven urns.

It is enough to defend the Liao army, and it may not last long in the face of the Song army's siege.

In particular, Fan Zhuoyuan, who also possessed the method of attacking the city, led the army here, and the fan flag that was flamboyant immediately aroused the vigilance of the defenders in the city.

Fan Zhuoyuan didn't dare to waste time either. From now on, the Golden Army garrison sent scouts to inform Wanyan Wu to beg for a purchase. It would only take three days at most for them to rush here!

If they can't conquer the city within three days, they will have to fight against Wu Qimai's [-] main force here, plus the [-] main force in the city will come out to fight, no matter how strong the Xiaojie army is, it will only be defeated.

So before the camp was set up, Fan Zhuoyuan ordered the troops to immediately dig tunnels to reach the city wall.

Many rioting slaves met the Xiaojie army and offered to help, which made the excavation of the tunnel extremely fast. At this time, the land in Shangjing was not so frozen that it could not be excavated.

Therefore, in just one night, the root of the city wall has been dug!
During this period, the defenders didn't know what they meant, and they sent troops out to fight, but Fan Zhuoyuan personally led the army to repel them, beheading the enemy's generals, so that the defenders no longer dared to continue to harass.

And then early the next morning, the gunpowder sealed at the base of the city wall was ignited, and there was a bang, the mushroom cloud broke through the ground, the city wall on the ground was lifted violently, and then fell down heavily, forming a huge wall that could accommodate hundreds of people in and out. gap!
The golden soldiers guarding nearby were all killed or stunned by the terrifying explosion, and hundreds of corpses fell in all directions. Scars, only strange bleeding corpses.

Even if they are still alive, they seem to be drunk, unable to hold a weapon, unable to stand steadily, subconsciously thinking that they are defending the city to fight.

When the gunpowder smoke was blown away by the cold wind, Fan Zhuoyuan saw such a scene, and immediately led the army to rush towards this gap.

At this time, the defenders on the nearby city wall had lost their ability to resist, and they could hardly resist. They just watched thousands of soldiers frantically pouring into the city!
Although the defenders in the city were shaken by the explosion and their morale was shaken, under the command of the important officials of the Kingdom of Jin who stayed behind, they still rushed towards this side with gritted teeth, preventing the Xiaojie army from entering the city.

They all knew what the consequences would be if the city of Shangjing was broken. All the families of Jurchen nobles in the city would become hostages of the Xiaojie army!

This blow to the morale of the army around Emperor Wanyan Wu Qimai was almost fatal.

Fan Zhuoyuan carried the dragon-slaying knife on his back, held a fire zip in one hand, and held a thunderbolt in the other. He also wore two strings on his body. He rushed into the pile of dead people together with a group of vanguards in heavy armor, and then gathered in a formation towards the rear. Jin Jun threw hundreds of thunderbolts.

Fan Zhuoyuan hurled it directly with force and hit the center of the crowd, while the rest of the death squads hurled them out with long-trained sling skills and smashed into the crowd.

This series of explosions immediately caused the formation of the Jin army in front of them to collapse, and the violent explosions greatly shook the morale of the Jin army.

Fan Zhuoyuan threw all the thunderbolts on his body, and then swung his knife to drive away the defeated army and charged the defenders who were gathering behind. The death squads followed closely, quickly defeated the Jin army's reinforcements, and then turned to control the city gate.

As a result, more golden soldiers were seen pouring in not far away, and even cavalry came to kill them on the long street.

He frowned slightly, and turned his head to look, only to see that hundreds of warriors from his side had entered the city on horseback. They were carrying more than [-] tiger squatting cannons, and they were stuck in front of the area controlled by Fan Zhuoyuan, setting up the artillery formation.

Fan Zhuoyuan immediately ordered the cavalry to get ready, and ordered the infantry to rush to the city gate to defend the key point.

The cavalry of the Golden Army was about to step in, but they saw more than [-] tigers squatting and firing salvos, and the barrage flew, and there were endless wailing and horse neighing in the long street.

People and horses fell on the street in a mixed manner, and the frightened war horses dragged the wounded knights and ran wildly, and the formation was in chaos for a while.

Fan Zhuoyuan immediately ordered many cavalry to rush out, defeating the cavalry of the Golden Army in the city in one fell swoop, and then galloped along the long street, chasing and killing the remaining infantry of the Golden Army who came to support them.

At this time, on the top of the city gate, Yunlong, Feiyue and other members of the Yin Gui faction displayed their powerful strength in the chaotic battle, killed all the defenders at the top of the city, captured the city gate, opened it immediately, and more Soldiers from the Xiaojie Army poured into the city, and the outcome of the war was already doomed at this moment.

In just one day, the defense force of Shangjing City was completely breached. Fan Zhuoyuan ordered people to seize various key points, and let the slaves who took refuge in him incite the slaves in the city to cooperate and control the Jurchen nobles in various places in the city.

Then concentrate their efforts to break through the last key point, the imperial palace, and capture all the high-ranking family members of the Jurchen nobles. They don't even have time to escape out of the city!

These victories made everyone in the army excited. Unexpectedly, Fan Zhuoyuan wiped out the insignificant Jin army troops for several days and tricked the main force of the defenders to leave. He actually wanted to capture Shangjing City. The most important thing was that he really broke through it!

The members of the Yingui faction looked at all this in astonishment as if they were in a dream.

Yunlong and Feiyue were the first to rush into the harem when the palace was breached, and they were going to find Pingfei Qiudie to clean up the house.

There are also many martial arts masters hidden in the palace of the Kingdom of Jin, but none of them are the opponents of the Yin Gui faction who had prepared for it. After a brutal fight, all the martial arts masters either died or surrendered.

However, the master and apprentice searched around in the harem, but they still failed to find Concubine Ping. After questioning the maids around Concubine Ping, they found out that Concubine Ping had disappeared after the gate of Shangjing was breached.

Yunlong could only press the matter of cleaning up the door temporarily, waiting for the next day when the master and apprentice left the harem and returned to the entrance of the imperial city.

But he saw Fan Zhuoyuan standing on the city wall of the imperial city, his body was incomparably stalwart, like a god descending from the earth, everyone under the city wall cheered loudly to celebrate such a feat.

This scene made the master and apprentice feel unspeakable.

In the hundreds of years since the prosperous Tang Dynasty, has there ever been a feat of Han soldiers riding on horses and conquering the enemy's capital?
Has such a hero reappeared in Han soil?

Yun Long turned her head and saw her apprentice was confused, she hurriedly pushed her, frowned and shook her head slightly.

Feiyue came to her senses immediately, and said, "Master, we are now standing on the city wall of Shangjing, the most powerful Dajin Kingdom, as victors! Have we witnessed history?"

Yun Long froze for a moment, then nodded.

Not far away, Fan Zhuoyuan called Fu Yan, ordered the law enforcement team to get ready, and issued various orders with a solemn expression, without the excitement after breaking the city.

The master and apprentice were very surprised. After Fu Yan took the order to leave, Feiyue stepped forward and asked: "The city is broken. This is an incredible victory. Why are you half happy to see you?"

Fan Zhuoyuan sneered and said, "What's there to be happy about? Do you know what extreme joy begets sorrow?"

He pointed down and said: "As long as I dare to relax here, I will dare to herd sheep for me! What a victory to take down the capital of the empire. It is said that boosting the morale of the army will naturally have a great effect.

But once the army is not controlled, they will plunder and kill indiscriminately. Coupled with the fact that more than half of the city's population is slaves, this chaos will cause the whole of Shangjing to be out of control! "

Feiyue said disapprovingly: "According to the bandit tactics you carried out all the way here, isn't it normal to run away after the robbery?"

As soon as these words were said, Yunlong and the elders of the Yin Gui Sect couldn't help laughing.

Fan Zhuoyuan said: "It's just a matter of going to the capital, you have to defeat their main force staying behind, that's the real deal!"

Everyone looked at Fan Zhuoyuan in surprise, they didn't expect his strategic intention to be so bold!
