Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 404

Wanyan Zongqian changed his name and surname, provided information and got some preferential treatment from the captives, which was within his expectation, and the people of Song Dynasty were treacherous enough, and they were trustworthy enough, so they put the eleven carts of gold and silver treasures in the next to his tent.

But Wanyan Zonghan had an abnormal headache. Now facing Wucheng, he felt helpless.

This city is even more difficult to attack than the original Taiyuan City, and wave after wave of envoys to persuade them to surrender made higher and higher promises.

The envoys sent out did not come back once, and they were all chopped down by Yang Xinzhong.

Yang Xinzhong's parents and elder brothers were all killed because of the Jinren, so it was a wrong choice to talk to Yang Xinzhong about persuading him to surrender.

Wanyan Zonghan didn't want to persuade him to surrender, but Wucheng was really difficult to take down. This military fort with brick and stone walls blocked the advance of the Jinren army.

Like a reef in a big wave, it just stood there under the crazy offensive of the golden man, motionless.

"Wucheng can't be fought anymore. We have to fight far away." Wanyan Zonghan said with a frown, he always felt that there was a big trap waiting for him there.

But now there is no progress in Wucheng, so we can only go to Laiyuan Castle. The location of Dajingmenguan is too dangerous to attack.

Wanyan Zongwang shook his head, coming to Yuanbao was a big trap, but Wanyan Zongwang couldn't see how it was set up.

However, he still remembered that when he was a child, in the winter, all the rabbits turned into idiots, they got some grass leaves, put them on the shelf, and hit them one at a time.

Sprinkle a handful of grains under the basket and pull the rope, and you can always get a lot of squirrels in the basket.

Now, the golden people are like hungry rabbits and squirrels, and when they come to Yuanbao, they are the bait for hunters.

"Try it. It's so exhausting. When the snowstorm arrives, we can only retreat." Wanyan Zongwang agreed with Wanyan Zonghan's idea, and we can only try, otherwise the situation in Fengsheng Prefecture will not be opened at all.

Raiding Yunzhong, this has not reached Datong yet, and it has been delayed in Fengsheng Prefecture for so long.

"Let Khitannu and Bohai slave try first." Wanyan Zongwang added.

The Jin family, such as Wanyan Loushi, Wanyan Xiyin, and Wanyan Ningji, all nodded. Wucheng is really too difficult to agree to. According to the current progress, if we fight for another month, I am afraid that the bow of the Song people will Only crossbow arrows will destroy the city defense equipment.

This is still the case when the Song Dynasty does not provide support, but according to the temper of the new emperor of the Song Dynasty, it is almost impossible without support.

There is no exact definition of what a slave is, but it is definitely not a human being.

As ragged Khitan slaves and Bohai slaves, they climbed over a steep slope of about three feet.When they finally saw Laiyuan Fort, they were greeted with rain of arrows from Laiyuan Fort, repelling their attack.

After many trials, Jin Ren finally joined the attack sequence.

And when Yang Zongmin looked at the golden man's standard Mediterranean mouse tail, he knew that the golden man was coming.

"Get ready to give the golden man a big gift." Yang Zongmin gestured to the person pushing his swivel chair, and pushed himself forward.

Yang Zongmin looked at the golden man who looked like an ant in the distance. When he climbed up the steep slope with a ladder, he ordered to his guards: "Be very careful."

The guards had to leave, and when they came to the earthen wall of the Fortress, brown iron barrels appeared one after another, and they held packages in their hands and put them in the iron barrels.

"Mr. Yang, when using this caltrop cannon, let the soldiers of the Song army stay away and run faster. I am afraid of danger. After all, the improved gunpowder is the first time I go to the battlefield. I don't know if it will work well or not." Yang Zongmin died. The one who pushes the swivel chair is the stereotype.

Chen Gui was the first group of people who came to Fengsheng Prefecture for support. Of course, Chen Gui came to observe the use of the Tribulus Cannon so that he could improve it.

It is a pity that the musket is still not progressing well, and there are too many problems that need to be dealt with slowly.

Seeing the power of the Tribulus Cannon, Yang Zongmin designed a trap, but Wan Yan Zonghan suddenly changed his temper and went to fight Wucheng.

The tribulus cannons have not come out until now. It is entirely because the city walls of Wucheng are too high, and the delay time of the wooden fuze is too short. As a result, the ammunition packets of these tribulus cannons will explode in the air, and the tribulus cannons will lose their power when they fall to the ground. .

"The wooden plate fuze needs to be made into multi-standard fuzes, which has already been written in the letter. The new fuze has been designed, and the Armament Supervision of Yanjing Mansion is rushing to make it. It should be able to arrive in Wucheng in a few days. By then , the tribulus gun at the head of Wucheng can be used."

"What the officials mean is that if you can't do enough, you should withdraw from Fengsheng Prefecture completely. According to Juyongguan, you should guard the Jin people. There is no need to keep the soldiers here to die in vain." Chen Gui said while pushing Yang Zongmin.

"Look at what the officials said, the officials themselves don't issue explicit edicts, but write private edicts to you."

"He's embarrassed himself, isn't he? Even the officials can say it. It's been more than half a year since Fengsheng Prefecture was taken back. Hundreds of thousands of peasants have cultivated and built the city here. This is the Song Dynasty. Why should they retreat! The officials just look down on them. I am Yongxing Army!"

"The officials just like the stubborn old man, the Yongding Army! The Jiesheng Army! My Yongxing Army is not a soldier of the Song Dynasty anymore? Can't fight tough battles?" Yang Zongmin said unhappily.

Chen Gui smiled helplessly, Yang Zongmin's age has long passed the taboo age, seventy has been rare since ancient times, what to do and what to say, the official status can no longer be suppressed.

What's more, now that Yang Zongmin has retired and no longer receives the salary from the imperial court, he naturally speaks harder.

Chen Gui looked at the old boy and coaxed him, "The battlefield changes rapidly, and the officials don't make a clear order, just because they are afraid of affecting the dispatch of soldiers on the front line and adding chaos to Director Yang."

"The imperial pen letter written in black and white by the official is to give you a score in your heart. If you can't type it, you will return it."

Yang Zongmin shook his head again and again, and said: "Don't retreat, you little boy doesn't understand, retreat is done before the war, and if there is a fight, unless you leave the soldiers behind the palace, then the gain outweighs the loss. You don't need to fight the war." It's mixed, the officials are so far away, and they don't know what happened here."

"Don't think that I'm arguing with the old ones. To be honest, the Yongding Army is stronger than the Yongxing Army. I admit that, but the Yongxing Army is also very good at defending the city. They have fought against Xixia for so many years. , nothing will go wrong.”

Chen Gui nodded. He wrote a book on city defense, which was well received by officials and included in the textbook of the Army Military Academy.

But when he looked at Yang Zongmin's strategy for defending the city, he couldn't find any faults at all.

"The golden man is coming up. Let's fire the cannon." Yang Zongmin said with a smile as he saw the golden man showing his head under the steep slope.

Wanyan Zonghan looked at Laiyuan Fort from a distance, today's Laiyuan Fort was a bit weird, Jin Jun was about to touch the city of Laiyuan Fort, but Laiyuan Fort remained motionless, not even shooting an arrow.The calmness made people a little frightened, he always felt that something bad happened.

Could it be that Song Jun withdrew like this?

Wanyan Zonghan frowned, probably not, if the Song Army retreated so easily, the Great Song Army would not be what it is now.

He suddenly saw puffs of blue-gray smoke rising from Laiyuan Fort, and black dots fell on the golden army formation one by one.

What is this thing?Wanyan Zonghan was angry with an ominous premonition.

Immediately afterwards, intense flames came from the battle formation of the Jin army. At this time, Wanyan Zonghan heard the rumbling sound like thunder.

And the wailing sound of the golden man made people shudder, and a coolness rose from the tailbone and rushed straight to Yan Zonghan's forehead.

Because the entire Jinren camp, the team of 5000 people who climbed up the steep slope, wailed in pain before coming to the Fortress.

Wanyan Zonghan's face was ashen and trembling, what kind of weapon is this?
Da Song's firearm?Aren't all the firearms in Song Dynasty used to set off fireworks?
Why does a firearm that can't even frighten a golden man's horse have such power now?

But no matter what, the 5000-man team just disappeared.

Wanyan Zonghan stared, pointing at Laiyuan Fort in disbelief, but couldn't speak to Wanyan Zongwang.

Wanyan Zongwang recalled a very bad memory, that is the Yue flag that gave him some nightmares, Yue Fei was good at fighting, but every day he pushed a lot of decisive chariots and fought with him with a bed crossbow!

New equipment!Song Jun has new equipment again!This made Wanyan Zongwang recall the fear of being dominated again.

Wanyan Zongwang had the urge to leave the Zhongzhang Camp immediately and return to Huanglong Mansion.

Song Jun's new equipment left too many impressions on him.

"Xi Shuai! An urgent report from Huanglong Mansion!" The orderly rushed over suddenly, and a dying orderly placed the military report in front of Wanyan Zonghan, swallowing his last breath.

It took him four days to run from Huanglong Mansion to the front line, and he was exhausted.

Wanyan Zonghan frowned and picked up the military newspaper. Could it be that His Majesty is about to die?
