Chapter 350 0347 [Aim at the Chinese army and blast me! 】

The setting sun is like blood.

The setting sun cast a layer of blood on the battlefield, making it even more tragic.

"Dang Dang Dang!"

The rapid and harsh sound of golden drums came from the Jin Army camp.

The Jin army that had been attacking suddenly faded away like a tide, leaving corpses all over the ground.

With a cold expression on his face, Wanyan Zongwang returned to the camp surrounded by Liu Yanzong and others.

……

Under the dark night.

The south gate of Rongcheng opened quietly, and a group of cavalry filed in.

These cavalrymen wore a harness on their horses, and even the horses' hooves were wrapped with a piece of linen cloth.

Thousands of cavalrymen did not make much movement.

Although the scout battalion has secretly eliminated the Jin Army spies scattered around Rongcheng, they must be careful to sail the Wannian ship.

Behind the cavalry, there were also bullock carts.

The same goes for the old oxen that pulls the carts, wearing bamboo cages and their hooves wrapped in linen.

After the last bullock cart entered the city, the city gate was quickly closed and the gate was lowered.

"I've met the county magistrate!"

Han Shizhong held a wooden board under one arm and hung it in front of him.

This was injured by Wanyan Lou's room with a copper hammer during the siege yesterday.

Yu Jun was not much better. He was shot in the thigh and could not stand firmly at the moment. He was supported by two personal guards.

Even the two of them are like this, but they can't think of other officers and soldiers of the Qingzhou Army.

Of the 15,000 men, under the fierce attack of the Jin army, less than 12,000 were left, and half of them were wounded.

Han Zhen turned over and dismounted, spit out the copper coins in his mouth, and asked with concern: "Is the injury serious?"

"Thank you to the county magistrate for your concern. I won't be in any way. I'll just take care of him for a while."

Han Shizhong shook his head nonchalantly.

Although he received a blow, Wanyan Loushi did not get any favors. Zisungen was kicked so hard that he almost fainted on the spot from the pain.

With his strength, Wanyan Lou's ancestral hall was completely destroyed.

Patting his shoulder, Han Zhen chuckled and said, "I'll avenge you tomorrow!"

Although he was smiling, there was murderous intent in his eyes.

"it is good!"

Han Shizhong nodded solemnly, looking forward to it.

……

……

The next day.

In the early morning, there was a heart-wrenching sound.

The east gate of Rongcheng slowly opened from the inside, and more than 8,000 Qingzhou troops wearing black armor walked out of the gate, followed closely by Han Zhen leading 3,000 cavalry.

After arriving outside the city, they immediately set up their military formation.

When the Jin Army scouts saw this scene, they immediately mounted their horses and returned to the military camp to report the incident.

"what?"

"The defenders of Rongcheng opened the city gate and went out to fight?"

The moment he heard the news, Wanyan Zongwang's heart immediately surged with ecstasy, but he immediately frowned.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Wanyan's mother in the tent asked in confusion: "Are reinforcements from Shandong thieves coming?"

Wanyan Zongwang also thought so. Otherwise, why would the defenders dare to go out of the city to fight with them?

The spy replied: "There are no reinforcements. There are only more than 10,000 bandits in Shandong."

More than 10,000 people?

Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Yan's mother looked at each other in shock and confusion.

Seeing the two of them being suspicious, Wanyan Loushi looked down upon them. Feeling the intense pain coming from the ancestral hall, he said with a ferocious face: "It is difficult to achieve great results if you are too timid. How can you miss such a good opportunity? Even if there is an ambush in the city, So what?"

Wanyan Zongwang was not annoyed by his ridicule. Instead, he glanced at his ancestral hall with sympathy.

After Wanyan Loushi was brought back by his personal guards yesterday, the military doctor diagnosed that his descendants were completely disabled.

For the Jurchens, missing arms and legs is no big deal. As long as they are alive, they are still good men.

But the descendants are useless...

Is he still a man?

As if aware of his gaze, Wanyan Loushi's forehead pulsed with veins. It took great perseverance to suppress the rage in her heart.

Liu Yanzong said: "According to the reports from spies, there are no traces of large armies near Rongcheng. Even if there are a small group of troops hiding day and night to avoid detection by scouts, the number will not be too large, only a few thousand at most. Perhaps it was two attacks. The city greatly increased the defender's confidence, and he felt that I could not wait for this, so he chose to go out of the city to fight."

This reason is a bit outrageous, but it is not impossible.

Otherwise, it really cannot be explained why the Rongcheng defenders came out of the city to fight without other reinforcements.

Wanyan Zongwang didn't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he hesitated for a moment and then ordered: "The whole army will fight!"

Half an hour later, Wanyan Zongwang personally led an army of 50,000 people out of the camp and headed straight for Rongcheng.

He spared a hand and asked Liu Yanzong to lead an army of 20,000 to stay in the camp and hold down the formation in the rear in case of emergency.

……

"Report!"

"The Jin army came out of the camp and numbered about 50,000 to 60,000 people."

"Report!"

"The Jin army is one mile away from here."

There is no need for spies to report, one mile is enough to see clearly the situation on the other side.

The earth trembled slightly, and the overwhelming Jin army surged in like a tide.

Facing an enemy force six times their size, the Qingzhou Army showed no trace of fear from top to bottom. Instead, everyone showed a ferocious smile.

The battle to defend the city in the past few days made them extremely frustrated.

Now that the county magistrate is here and the firearms have arrived, it's time to let these barbarians know how powerful their Qingzhou Army is.

……

Riding on his horse, Wanyan Zongwang looked at the defenders outside the city from a distance, with a strange look in his eyes.

Crane Wing Formation?

I saw that the opponent's front line was spread out in a straight line, and the formation looked a bit sparse.

There were two thousand men on each wing, forming an arc like bird wings, and behind them was a cavalry group.

It was too far away to see the exact number of cavalry, but Wanyan Zongwang estimated that there were not too many, and thousands of them were killed.

Wanyan Loushi sarcastically said: "Han people just like to make flashy things." Han Shizhong's kick was too harsh. Now that he was riding on the horse, the saddle of the ancestral hall was in pain.

As the war horse jolted while walking, waves of huge pain flooded into his brain like a tide, making his eyes red and his heart irritable. His whole body was on the verge of exploding.

He now hated Han Shizhong, even more than Han Zhen.

However, Wanyan Loushi felt a little relieved at the thought of being able to tear that Song man into pieces soon.

Boom boom boom!

Fifty thousand soldiers advanced, causing the earth to tremble slightly.

As the two sides got closer and closer, when they were five hundred steps apart, the marching drums stopped and the Jin army stopped in unison.

Wanyan Zongwang ordered: "Oliyan, it's up to you to fight in the front line!"

He knew that Wanyan Loushi was holding a fire in her heart and was eager for revenge.

Although he is dissatisfied with the other party's domineering behavior, he is still one of his own people.

Wanyan Zongwang can still distinguish between priorities.

"it is good!"

Wanyan Loushi laughed ferociously.

Wanyan Zongwang continued: "Uncle, you will command the cavalry."

Wanyan Yan's mother is Aguda's half-brother. She is only thirty-five years old this year, a few years older than Wanyan Zongwang, and the two have a close relationship.

"Subordinates take orders!"

Wanyan's mother answered with her fists clasped, then mounted her horse and rushed to the cavalry camp.

Boom boom boom!

The exciting war drums sounded slowly.

Wanyan Loushi drew out the steel knife from his waist, looked up to the sky and shouted: "My sons, kill all the Han troops!"

"Kill all the Han troops!!!"

The 20,000 Jin army's front troops roared in unison, held up shields and guns, and marched towards the Qingzhou army.

The Jin army led by Wanyan Loushi did not have any special tactics. The shield soldiers were in front, the spearmen were in hand, and behind them was a famous swordsman and axe.

In Wanyan Loushi's view, fifty thousand against ten thousand, another field battle, would be a one-sided massacre.

Looking at the slowly approaching Jin Army, the Qingzhou Army in the front row showed no fear, but a hint of joking in their eyes.

"Put up a shield!"

Following Han Zhen's loud roar, the former military shield bearers uniformly raised their giant shields.

"The gunner fills the shells!"

Upon hearing this, the gunners immediately began to load gunpowder into the barrel of the gun. After compacting it with wooden plugs, they began to load iron nails and iron caltrops.

After more than half a year of training, the gunners' movements are extremely skillful, fast and steady.

After plugging in the fuse, the gunners stopped and waited for orders.

Four hundred steps...three hundred steps...two hundred steps...

When the Jin army entered the range of 150 steps, the shield bearers in the front row suddenly began to retreat.

Seeing this scene, the Jin army thought that the Qingzhou army was frightened and defeated, and they were immediately overjoyed and couldn't help but move a little faster.

However, the next moment, the scene in front of them made the Jin soldiers look confused.

As the shield soldiers retreated, strange-looking iron lumps appeared in their sight.

There are fifty field guns in total.

The three-foot-long barrel was aimed at the Jin army, exuding a deep chill in the sun.

Wanyan Loushi rode on the horse and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, the Han army relies on these iron lumps when they go out of the city to fight?"

"Hahaha!"

His words caused all the Jurchen soldiers around him to laugh.

These Han troops are really crazy!

"fire!"

Suddenly, a loud roar sounded.

I saw the artilleryman standing on the side of the barrel, taking out the fire breaker from his waist and lighting the fuse.

Chi Chi Chi!

The sound of the lead burning rapidly was drowned in the noisy footsteps.

The Jin soldiers a hundred steps away could only see flashes of sparks.

Immediately afterwards...

Boom boom boom!

A deafening loud noise, like thunder, exploded in Jin Jun's ears.

Along with the rising thick smoke, countless iron nails and caltrops spurted out from the barrel.

The giant shield and heavy armor that could block powerful crossbows were like paper, being penetrated in an instant and filled with holes.

Fifty field artillery pieces were fired at the same time, and the Jin army rushing in the front row was instantly blasted into a sieve.

The scattered shotguns even affected the Jin Army in the second and third rows.

With just one salvo, thousands of Jin soldiers lay down.

Most of them were killed on the spot. A small number of them were not hit critically, but they fell to the ground and wailed, losing their combat effectiveness.

However, the power of field artillery did not stop there.

The terrifying sound caused by the volley of fifty field guns plunged the 50,000 Jin army into complete chaos.

"Xilulu!"

The war horse under Wanyan Zongwang was also frightened, raised its front hooves high, and then shook its body wildly.

Wanyan Zongwang didn't notice for a moment and fell off his horse, hitting the ground heavily.

After shaking off its owner, the frightened horse ran wildly, knocking all the Jurchen soldiers off their feet.

In the flanking cavalry camp, 20,000 horses were frightened and fled in all directions.

In an instant, thousands of Jurchen cavalry fell off their horses. Before they could struggle to get up, horse hooves trampled them hard.

"Ahhhh!!!"

The screams echoed over the battlefield.

The war horses went crazy, and in an instant hundreds of Jurchen cavalry died under the horses' hooves.

In the Qingzhou Army, Han Zhen rode on his horse and waved his hand: "Attack!"

"Boom boom boom!"

The passionate drums sounded.

"Kill!!!"

The Qingzhou Army, which originally retreated to the rear of the artillery, immediately roared and charged towards the Jin Army.

On top of the city tower, there are ten siege cannons.

Han Shizhong hung his arms and commanded with a sneer on his face: "Aim at the Jin army and blast me!"
