The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

The siege broke out instantly.

Ruda led 500 death troops, braved the rain of arrows, crossed the moat and attacked Anton Gate.

At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds and raindrops were floating in random directions, and the killing sounds from other sects could be heard in the distance, shaking the sky and the earth.

On the other side, Yue Fei and a thousand suicide squads carried ladders and built a pontoon bridge, crossed the moat, and the soldiers leaned the ladders against the city wall and began to attack the city.

Wanyan Yinshu was personally supervising the battle at the top of the city, but he was able to repulse the attack here. Someone there reported that there was a tight situation and there were too few generals under his command. He was running back and forth for a while, exhausted.

Brothers Wu Jie and Wu Lin tied their leggings and rattan armor tightly, tied their waists and tied their arms. They held a sharp ox-horn knife in their mouths and nine-section steel whips hanging from their wrists, and led a thousand men who dared to die to attack the city.

The soldiers in the rear shouted in unison: "Kill..." The crossbows on the city rang out, arrows rained down like rain, and the siege soldiers fought bloody battles. For a while, both sides suffered heavy casualties.

In the afternoon, the front lines of soldiers from all over the city all pushed up the ladders. The Jurchen army on the city shouted and fired arrows. The arrows rained so densely that all the branches and leaves of some trees beside the city trench were shot away. Looking from a distance, all the trees, big and small, were falling. He became a bald ghost and seemed to have suffered an unprecedented disaster!

The Qin army's attack on the city was like the tide of the sea, spitting out bursting white flowers, rolling in from the sky, swallowing up many rocks, pushing thousands of tons of sand, and hitting the battlements on the city. The fierce roar of fierce beasts, if it is the night moon at this moment, the night moon will also be sad, if it is during the day, the day will be eclipsed!

In the blink of an eye, after a whole day, countless dead bodies were piled up and down the city, but the light rain stopped. There were only water stains on the city walls and accumulation of water on the ground, all red in color. The world seemed to change color, and a thick fishy smell floated in the air.

Zhao Tong had a large army of 300,000 troops. After one round of attack, he would go back to the rear to rest before switching to the next round. Therefore, the offensive never stopped, and the troops were as fierce as tigers.

The sky was getting dark. Zhao Tao observed the scene on the city. It was desolate and desolate. As night fell, the defenders above had no energy left.

He pondered for a moment and gave the order to attack the city non-stop, all night long, and take advantage of his illness to kill him. Yanjing City must be captured today!

The camp on the other side of the moat fired flying cannons, and there was a constant muffled sound from the other side's tower. The oil piles had been lit for lighting, and the smell of blood was burning in the flames.

Under the city, there were also lights, balls, and torches. It was as bright as day for a while. There were shouts from above, and arrows were like locusts on both sides. Wooden stones were raining down from above, and the wooden ladders were all knocked over, and hooks several feet long stretched out from below. , handed over a random hook, sometimes hooking out large pieces of flesh and blood, sometimes even the person was dragged out. At that time, he was not hooked to death, but he fell off the city wall and was smashed to pieces.

The soldiers on both sides suffered heavy casualties. Lu Da and Li Kui each had wounds, but they did not retreat.

These two were always at the front. Ruda was hungry and weak, so he took out dried meat and stuffed it into his mouth, and then fought again.

Li Kui, however, was much simpler. He grabbed the corpses that had fallen on the city and opened his mouth to gnaw them. After a few strokes, his mouth and face were covered with blood. It looked like a hungry ghost from hell was born and the devil from the west descended.

At the top of Yanjing City, both the soldiers and the strong forces who had been dragged up were extremely tired, sleepy and tired, but they had no backup soldiers to take a rest. Even though the supplies for the defense of the city were still abundant, everyone lost their spirits and became sluggish. depressed.

Especially those people in the city who brought strong men over. These people originally belonged to the Liao Kingdom, and dealt with the Yi and Song Dynasties, and finally were unified by the Jurchens.

But among these people there are Khitans, Bohai people, Turks, Uighurs, Tatars, and Han people, but there are no Jurchens.

Normally, it would be okay to be under control, but now they were asked to work for the Jurchens, but none of them were willing, let alone being captured to defend the city.

There is no room for slack in siege and defense. A city wall that is several miles long covers a vast area, just like a river embankment that can be protected for thousands of miles, but it will be destroyed in one hole.

Li Yanxian looked ferocious at the moment. If he captured Yanjing in one day, it would be an unprecedented feat and would definitely leave his name in history. Although it was dark at the moment, the big city ahead was already in danger. There was only one chance to break through. City defense.

At this time, he ordered a fierce attack on the west city, regardless of the cost, and all the ordnance and ballistae were sent to the west city head to greet them.

They also asked the soldiers to pour kerosene on the rocks, and then tied a burning cloth to the front of the crossbow, and tied bows and arrows to make rockets.

In the Song Dynasty, there was originally a Rocket Academy under the Ordnance Supervision, which manufactured arrows suitable for carrying fire objects. They were available in various lengths and sizes. Now that they were all used, the west city of Yanjing immediately became a sea of ​​fire.

Wanyan Yinshu personally rushed to the west city to take command. Seeing that there were not enough troops, he began to mobilize troops from other cities to join the defense.

Li Yanxian gave the order again. Regardless of losses, use as much as you could, and attack them all on the West City. Half of the sky was lit up by fire, as if it was a purgatory on earth.

He openly concentrated his firepower to attack the west city of Yanjing, but actually secretly issued an order to Wang Yan in the east city, telling him to take advantage of the fierce attack on the west city to open a gap from the east and try to break through the defense of Yanjing from the east city.

This is a strategy of building plank roads openly, secretly visiting Chencang, and attacking in the east and west.

To the east, Lu Da, Li Kui, Qin Ming, and Suo Chao each had a city gate and attacked both sides.

At this time, Ruda took out all the food he was carrying, stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it in big gulps. After a while, he ate it all. Then he held the sword in one hand, roared loudly, and climbed up the ladder again.

He burst out with all his strength, and his iron ring sword danced like snowflakes, weatherproof, whatever he hit above was knocked away, and he was in front of the stack in just a moment.

At this moment, there are not as many Jurchen soldiers on the city wall as before. Wanyan Yinshu can mobilize many of them to the west for support. Seeing Ruda's bravery, they all gathered here.

But when they came closer, Li Kui arrived at the city head again. He was like a madman, holding a dry cooking cake in his mouth, his eyes like bells were wide open, and there were countless scars on his body. His whole body was soaked in blood, and he had a pair of wooden axes. They all turned black, with the skin and flesh of Jurchen soldiers still hanging on them.

When the soldiers guarding the city saw his ferocious appearance, even if they were used to seeing life and death, their eyes widened and they unconsciously stepped back.

Li Kui yelled: "Grandpa is here, why don't you die quickly!"

The soldiers behind the stack retreated in panic and hurriedly took arrows to shoot. Li Kui couldn't dodge, and several wolf fangs hit his shoulders and ribs. He pulled out a few times, but because the arrows had barbs and had not been pulled out, he got angry and used all his strength to pull them out. , it was actually connected to a large piece of flesh and blood, but it didn't feel painful, but was thrown to the ground. For a moment, there was a lot of blood, as if it was a bloody man.

"Grandpa, this is not a human being..." The soldiers on the city were so frightened that their eyes widened, while the civilians ran away. This was not a human being at all, it was clearly an evil ghost with human form.

Li Kui laughed loudly, with an ugly face, but in his heart he thought that His Majesty had said before that whoever climbed to the top of the city first would be rewarded with 10,000 gold and made a general. How much wine can 10,000 gold buy? I’m afraid I won’t be able to drink it all for the rest of my life!

He jumped hard, and the ladder below made a "click" sound and the bench broke, but others also jumped behind the stack. Once he comes up, who dares to come forward? It was no longer easy to use the bow and arrow, so he could only stab with spears and spears. Li Kui howled like a wild beast, swung two axes in his hands, and rushed forward. The soldiers on the opposite side died if they touched each other.

Lu Da also worked hard, broke through many obstacles, and finally climbed to the top of the city. When the two of them came up, they immediately opened a gap at the crenels. The Qin troops behind them continued to climb, and Qin Ming and Suo Chao also climbed up the city. top.

Upon seeing this, Li Yanxian immediately mobilized the men and horses on standby in the rear, carried them all up hundreds of ladders, and carried them all to the east city.

At this time, there were still many Qin troops who did not participate in the siege at all. They kept their spirits up and went up to the city vigorously. It didn't take long to seize the east city of Yanjing.

There was still fierce fighting in the west, and Wanyan Yinshu was commanding from the rear. Suddenly, the flag army came to report: "General, the general is in trouble, the east city has been lost..."

"What?" Wanyan Yinshuke suddenly swayed when he heard the words, almost falling, and hurriedly used the mace in his hand to hit the ground.

"Why don't you take it back quickly!" After saying that, he got on his horse and ran eastward along the city wall.

But only halfway through, they saw the troops in front of them defeated and coming back, while the Qin army behind them was like a tide that couldn't stop, surging and beating and chasing.

Wanyan Yinshu was shocked and hurriedly shouted: "Stop everything, stop everything!"

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel panic in his heart. When did the Jurchen athletes become like this? The ones running at the front were not ordinary people, they were clearly Jurchen sons and daughters.

The Jurchens were less than ten thousand, and they were invincible. No matter how invincible they were at this moment, they actually stopped resisting and fled as fast as birds and beasts.

However, Wanyan Yinshuke's voice still had an effect. After all, the prestige accumulated over the years was still there. Those Jurchen soldiers stopped in a hurry and shouted: "General, we don't want to retreat either. We really can't resist anymore..."

Wanyan Yinshu was so angry that he wanted to kill a few regular soldiers, but at this moment the troops came from behind. He was so angry that he waved the mace in his hand forward angrily: "Follow me to kill the enemy!"

The soldiers gained some backbone after seeing him, and aroused the ferocious intention in their hearts. They turned around and charged forward with a cry of "Aoao". However, the spirit of the already defeated soldiers was already weak at this time. Even if they aroused ferocity in their hearts, they still couldn't. How could they compare with the great Qin army whose morale was rising? They just charged and were defeated again.

Seeing the situation, Wanyan Yinshu couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, his arms were shaking. Seeing the soldiers retreating again, he had no choice but to retreat to the west city.

At this time, the offensive at the west city head had slowed down. Wanyan Yinshu was complaining in his heart. He still didn't understand that he had fallen into a trap. This was a strategy of attacking from the west and attacking from the east.

He had no choice but to lead his soldiers to defend, but with the same fall of the southern city and the northern city, the Qin army at the top of the Yanjing city increased in number. At the end, they were unable to get down even if they wanted to go down, because the Qin army had already left the city. Those who entered the city opened the city gate, and there were also soldiers and horses of the opponent below.

Wanyan Yinshuke's eyes were blood red as he looked at the enemy troops attacking from the north, south and below. He had killed an unknown number of people with the mace in his hand, but the number of Qin troops behind him was increasing, as if they were endless.

"Catch the golden dog alive!"

"Seize Wanyan Yin Shuke!"

"Kill the female general and become a great general!"

"Don't let Yin Shuke escape!"

As the soldiers around him fell one by one, Wanyan Yinshu had retreated to the bottom of the city tower. He looked in all directions. There were not many Jurchens left, and the Qin army was everywhere.

At this moment, a huge figure suddenly rushed up and shouted: "The golden dog will die!"

Wan Yan Yin Shu can look closely and see a big man with tiger eyes and beard, his clothes and armor are stained black with blood, he has a sword on his back and a water-milled iron Zen staff in his hand, and he hits him in the face.

At this moment, Wanyan Yinshu felt as though he were dead. He yelled, raised the mace to the sky and blocked it. There was a loud "bang". Wanyan Yinshu felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him. His arms were numb, and his jaws were cracked open. , several pieces of green bricks cracked under the feet.

The person who came was none other than Ruda. In order to prevent the soldiers from losing too much, the generals who went up to the city were leading people to kill the soldiers. Because Zhao Tao ordered that not one Jurchen soldier be surrendered, but anyone wearing military uniforms. They wanted to kill without mercy, so they rushed past here when they had almost enough people to kill.

Luda is a master at this moment. Although Wanyan Yinshu is also brave and unrivaled, he is always inferior to Luda. After all, he has always been a general. Compared with Luda, who only drinks and eats meat to hone his martial arts.

Just watching Luda's Zen staff slide down smoothly, he used a dragon to swing his tail. Wanyan Yinshu hurriedly put up his mace to block it. However, Luda used so much force that he hit the stick unsteadily, and the stick tilted directly.

Wanyan Yinshuke was shocked. He didn't care about the stick at the moment. He jumped back quickly, but he didn't want Luda to take advantage of the situation and hit the sea with a yaksha. The Zen stick came out straight and hit him in the chest. The mirror was shattered and the armor was stabbed. Damn it, he yelled, opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood, mixed with internal organ fragments, and spit it all over Luda.

Lu Dahu's eyes widened and he roared: "Death to the thief!" The sixty-two kilogram water-milled iron Zen staff came out with one inch, completely crushing Wanyan Yinshuke's chest. When he looked at it again, he was already dead. I can't die anymore.

He reached out and pulled out the sword from behind, stepped forward and cut off his head, and then shouted: "The female princess is dead, if you don't kill the enemy quickly, you can go to the city early to eat meat!"

When those soldiers heard this, they immediately became energetic and chased the remaining golden soldiers, giving them another easy kill...

In the blink of an eye, one night passed, and Yanjing City had been completely captured. There was no longer a Jurchen soldier left alive, and they were all killed.

Zhao Tong ordered the battlefield to be cleaned, the corpses burned and buried, and the ordinary people who participated in the defense of the city were not held accountable or held accountable.

Three days later, Yanjing City has been stabilized. After all, the Jin soldiers have not occupied this place for a long time, and there is no way to operate it. There is no need to dig three feet into the ground to carry out any large-scale inspection.

Moreover, there was no Jurchen living in Yanjing to begin with. The people of Yanjing hated the Kingdom of Jin. If there was a Jurchen hiding, there was no need for Zhao Tao to send troops to find it, and the people would report it.

After capturing Yanjing and restoring the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, Zhao Tong gave an order to Zhongshu Men in Tokyo and asked Liu Suiyun to prepare a decree to announce to the world and announce the results of the war to the public.

Then he began to organize his army in Yanjing. He only waited for grain, grass and new ordnance to be shipped from the rear, and then led his troops to continue northward, with his horses on the grassland and his sword pointing at Beijing!
