Chapter 184

The stars twinkled in the sky and the light on the ground was quite good, which was enough for the elite to make their way on the road.

What is elite?Those who are strong and strong have no worries about food and drink, so naturally they will not suffer from night blindness.

Even if you are night blind, you are not afraid. Yuan soldiers are all good at equestrian skills. They can control their horses and follow the large army.

In the middle of the night, Zhang Chengqian hurried to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, the Yuan army is coming, about ten miles away."

It's not a whistleblower or a prophet, but a skill taught by Zhao Cunzhong.

You can find enemy cavalry by listening to the movement on the ground with a listening urn. If Zhao Cunzhong himself is there, you don’t need to listen to the urn. You only need a pair of ears to judge the number and position.

"Act as planned." Zhao Shi continued to close his eyes and rest, but kept holding the long knife in front of him with both hands.

"Yes." They dispersed and went to tell the soldiers to get ready.

"Your Majesty, I thought it was better to hide the banner." Wang Gangzhong couldn't help but persuade him.

"I have made up my mind, no need to say more." Zhao Shi thought for a while, opened the box at his feet, took out a gun and handed it to Wen Daosheng, saying: "I'll reward you, use it for self-defense."

In history, Wen Tianxiang encountered a plague. Wen Daosheng's brothers and his mother both died of the disease. The plague had been avoided, but the emperor did not want him to die in a military disaster.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wen Daosheng took it happily, lifting it up and putting it down from time to time, and even made a "bang bang bang bang" sound in his mouth.

Guns and artillery, men's romance, can't stop.

Gao Yuanchang led the army to the outside of the city. In order to prevent the little emperor from escaping, [-] cavalry were assigned to guard each city gate. Rangers were also scattered on three sides. The large army went straight to the gap in the city wall.

Looking through the starlight, I saw that the gap was still there and there were no soldiers stationed on the city wall.

"The Song army has been so lax, it is fitting that the little emperor died here!" Gao Yuanchang was delighted, but he was not careless and sent a hundred households to drive [-] horses into the city.

soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"No, there's a trap~"

People were on their backs and their horses were overturned, and there was a lot of movement.

"Yuanlu is coming~"

"Go and protect His Majesty."

"Assemble, assemble."

Listening to the commotion inside, Gao Yuanchang smiled and said: "We have them all, fight in!"

Five hundred soldiers on each side dismounted and walked up the slope to the city wall, while four thousand soldiers ran wildly along the streets.

"Marshal!" A man emerged from the darkness and shouted, "The little emperor is in the west of the city."

The guard beside him said: "Marshal, this person's name is Jiang Zhaohai, and he is undoubtedly an insider."

Gao Yuanchang had a vague impression that Jiang Zhaohai was originally a large household in Jiankang Prefecture. He entered hundreds of households for donating grain, and then retreated to Yangzhou with Li Heng. When Zhang Shijie's troops came to the city, Jiang Zhaohai was supervising the transportation of grain and grass from the rear and escaped. After Yangzhou fell, he Change your identity and lurk.

"All armies disperse and fight toward the west of the city. The young emperor of Song must be captured and killed!" Gao Yuanchang gave the order, and the armies dispersed along the streets and went to the west of the city.

Just after passing the bell tower, the Yuan soldiers at the front had no time to rein in their horses, and many of them fell into the ditch. When they were dizzy from the fall, the Song soldiers got out of the cave where soldiers were hiding, and with swords and guns, they killed the Yuan soldiers who fell down and ran away.

"Shoot the arrows, shoot the arrows!" Yuan generals at all levels shouted, and the Yuan soldiers immediately opened their bows.

It was just a fool's errand. Song Bing ran very fast and his hit rate was not high.

Boom~
There was a flash of fire, and both the Song and Yuan sides were seen fighting in a mass on the city wall.

Whenever one's own side fails, the rear will throw thunderbolts even if they try to inflict accidental damage, never allowing the opponent to advance.

There is no cover or barrier on the city wall. If you want to advance, you can only fight hard. However, the Yuan soldiers do not have to capture the city wall, so they are in a stalemate.

On the ground, all the Yuan troops dismounted, some thirty or fifty, or one or two hundred, and jumped into the ditch. The sky thunder hand lit the torch. When they saw the fire on the opposite side, they immediately threw the sky thunder.

The same is true for the Song Army. It is an iron rule of the battlefield that Tianlei carries a torch, so both sides naturally make a fuss about this.Rumbling, Yuan Jiang found that his Heavenly Thunder Hands had been decreasing, while the opposite Heavenly Thunder Hands did not seem to have suffered much damage.

After watching carefully for a long time, Gao Yuanchang shouted: "There are fake torches set up on the opposite side, be careful!"

It's useless.

In such a tense situation, it was impossible to distinguish carefully and explode when seeing the light of fire. Therefore, many sky mines of the Yuan army launched aerial bombings.

When the Song Army targeted the opponent's Sky Thunder Hands, they still had enough energy to take care of the battlefield. Whenever a large-scale Yuan soldiers gathered, they would immediately launch a strike.

But there are not many such opportunities, because the ditches and walls here are intertwined, cutting the battlefield into pieces, and they are all in close contact.

There are many soldiers in the Song Dynasty, usually three against two. However, the soldiers in the Yuan Dynasty are so elite that they won't suffer any disadvantages and even have a slight advantage if they defeat more with fewer soldiers.

Unconsciously, a wisp of fish belly white appeared on the horizon.

Gao Yuanchang looked up and saw that the emperor's banner was hanging on the flagpole, motionless.

"There are still two hundred steps left, kill him!" Gao Yuanchang shouted.

"Your Majesty, please lead our troops to fight!" Yu Zhanchi said.

"Yes!" Zhao agreed.

Two hundred steps, we can't let go, it's time to send out the guards.

The young guardsmen were the seeds of future officers, while the guardsmen were the proud and powerful generals who were about to be promoted. There were only 150 of them, and they immediately blocked the Yuan soldiers.

However, Gao Yuanchang was not worried but overjoyed, because a large number of imperial guards had already told him that the young emperor was indeed in front.

"Brothers, today is the day to win the title of marquis and general. If we capture the little emperor, our family will continue to be rich and powerful for generations to come!" Gao Yuanchang continued to boost morale.

Zheng Zhiyi, however, did not say a word and only led a group of soldiers to charge forward.

On the battlefield filled with thunderous thunder, the generals consciously returned to the rear to take command, and those as powerful as Jiang Cai and Yang Zhenlong no longer took the lead in the charge. However, Zheng Zhiyi's unconventional approach achieved great results.

The deputy general took the lead, and the Yuan soldiers were all excited, and Zheng Zhiyi was talented and could always minimize the damage of the thunder.

At noon, when Zheng Zhiyi climbed over a low wall, he suddenly saw more than a hundred generals, officers and guards surrounded by a large banner, and in the middle was a young man.

The young emperor did not live in seclusion in the palace and did not go out. Countless people had seen him. Among them, Yuan Jun made a detailed copy of the portrait, and Zheng Zhiyi recognized it at a glance.

"Kill~" Both sides shouted at the same time and rushed over, fighting into a ball.

Wang Gangzhong knelt down and bowed: "Your Majesty, go, go quickly!"

"There's fighting everywhere, how can we get out?" Zhao Shi stood up and shook his armor.

"This time, I underestimated the enemy's carelessness and overestimated Yangzhou's combat power, which led to such a crisis.

If I follow the destiny of heaven, I will be safe and sound. If misfortune occurs, King Ning will succeed to the throne, Zhao will return, and all the ministers will kill him! "

Zhao Xiaoda's prestige is unparalleled, so he dares to bring Zhao Xiaoer back, but Zhao Xiaosan may not be able to suppress him. Instead of having a dispute over the throne, it is better to kill him and settle the matter.

Of course, Zhao would not give up easily, nor was it time to accept his fate.

"Yu Zhanchi, kill the fierce Yuanlu!" Zhao Shi shouted.

"I have an order." Yu Zhanchi stood up and said, "We have them all. Kill the fierce Yuanlu!"

"Follow the Holy Order!" Ten soldiers untied the wooden box behind them, opened it, took out their muskets, and started to take aim while half-kneeling.

To this day, the country has cast [-] large and small cannons, but only more than a thousand muskets, including only [-] long rifled guns and [-] short guns.

"Both, three-stage shooting." Yu Zhanchi shouted and pressed the trigger.
