Chapter 132
Chapter 132 – The Crumbling Bianliang descended from the sky to the King of Youzhou! [Third Change, Big Chapter].
“Defensive envoy, the arrows of the Jin Army are too poisonous, and the soldiers can’t stop it!”
At the head of Bianliang City and outside the city, the roar continued.
A general of the Bianliang garrison came to Li Gang with a bloody face, and said in a hoarse voice.
The thunderbolt cannons of the Great Song Dynasty, set up at the head of the city, could only throw the trebuchet array and rear array of the Jin Army a mile or two away. For those Jin troops who killed one or two hundred steps in the city, there was no way.
The same is true of the bed crossbow erected at the head of the city, although it can flexibly change the angle compared to the thunderbolt cannon, but because the bed crossbow is heavy, the turn needs to be lifted by people, which is extremely slow.
And Jin Jun sat on a horse, coming and going like the wind!
As soon as the crossbow was adjusted, the golden man bypassed. Therefore, at the moment, all that can be counted on is bows and arrows.
And the bows and arrows of the defenders of the Great Song Dynasty are not as fast and fast as the arrows shot by the Jin army! Moreover, the Jin army has been in battle for a long time, and its ability to dodge and block arrows is first-class.
Coupled with heavy armor, those arrows of the Song army can rarely hurt the golden soldiers.
Even if it occasionally penetrates the gap in the armor and hurts, the Jurchen skin is thick and muscular, and it can often catch the arrow at the end of the strong crossbow without hurting the point.
The Song army did not, although the defenders of Bianliang also wore armor, but except for a very small number of people, most of the soldiers’ armor cut corners, and their defense was not as good as heavy armor.
Because the Bianliang Forbidden Army had been in peace for a long time and had insufficient training, many people wore 60 pounds of heavy armor and could hardly train and move. Therefore, the armor that the imperial court rationed to these soldiers was all kind of goods.
It is far less good than the armor of the Western Army and other armies that can really fight.
Even some of them are forbidden troops of the Fourth Army, and the armor is simply paper armor!
It just looks like it’s coated with gold dust vermilion paint and carved with the head of a cloud-swallowing beast, but it is almost defenseless! I can only serve as an honor guard for the royal family on weekdays.
How can such a Bianliang forbidden army block the rain of arrows of the Jin army? As a result, many people were shot through the armor and were killed or seriously wounded immediately. The wails were everywhere.
Even if there are shield soldiers with shields to shield, but the gold army is a projectile, and there are brave people in the gold army, using heavy arrows like small hammers, the shield can hardly be blocked!
Raising the shield above your head can block it, but in that case, the Song army can’t fight back and reflect, and the Jin army can follow the trend to the city!
Therefore, the defenders could only shoot at the approaching Jin army, but they continued to suffer. Casualties are also increasing.
Li Gang looked at the defenders who were killed and wounded, as well as the archers who were trembling and almost unstoppable, and suddenly gritted his teeth: “Order, from the north and south walls, send more archers to support!” ”
The circumference of Bianliang City together can reach tens of miles. Of course, it is impossible for the Jin army to surround these walls.
In fact, since the Jin army came to Bianliang, it only camped in the northwest corner of the city, and did not surround Bianliang on all sides. In that case, the Jin army would not only have to divide the troops, but also would not be able to really surround Bianliang City.
Therefore, from the very beginning, the Jin army fought outside the western city and hit the western city wall. However, on the three walls of the south, north and east, Li Gang also had to send troops to garrison.
Because no one knows whether the Jin army will attack from the east and west and raid from other city walls. Since ancient times, the side that attacked the city mostly used this method to capture the city.
Because the defenders of the city are often very passive and have to defend everywhere, but the attacking side can sound the east and west, move the tiger away from the mountain, etc., and find an opportunity to break the city from any corner of the weak point!
Li Gang naturally understood this truth.
It’s just that even if he understands, there is no way.
In the original history, when Li Gang was defending Bianliang, the Jin army only had 60,000 troops from Yan Zongwang to the east.
The number of defenders in Bianliang City was also not less than this number, so under Li Gang’s calm command, the Jin army besieged the city for the first time and did not break through Bianliang.
But this time was different, the Jin army had more than 100,000 horses, and also made sufficient preparations for siege, and there were trebuchets and other siege equipment. Although Li Gang knew the troops, his strength was limited, and the combat strength of the defenders of Bianliang was also limited.
If you want to defend the city wall for tens of miles, it is inevitable that you will not be able to do enough!
At this moment, the western city was attacked by the archers of the Jin Army, so they could only transfer archers from other city walls.
After all, archers also need long-term training, and the soldiers at the head of the city are not qualified for archers. With Li Gang’s order, the archers of the northern and southern city walls quickly rushed to reinforce.
And at this time, the north city wall suddenly came to report: “Qiyu defense envoy, outside the north city wall, suddenly there is a golden army onslaught!” ”
“The rain of arrows of the Jin army is very urgent, after the archers of the north wall were transferred, the defenders of the north wall were unable to counterattack, and someone from the Jin army has already taken advantage of the situation to land in the city!”
Hearing the call for help from the North City Wall, Li Gang’s expression sank, knowing that he had fallen for the Yang Scheme of the Jin Army!
Just now, the western city wall here could not stop the onslaught of the golden army’s bows and arrows, Li Gang had no choice but to transfer the archers of the north and south city walls, each part of it, but as soon as the archers of the north and south city walls were transferred, the northern city wall was attacked by another golden army!
This is the commander of the Jin Army, to make Li Gang unable to care about each other, but it is also a Yang conspiracy that Li Gang is unable to crack! Because there are many golden soldiers, they are fierce and brave, and the rain of arrows is fierce.
And the Bianliang defenders are not as strong as the Jin army, and the archers are not as fierce as the Jin army, so there are flaws everywhere.
Although Bianliang claims to have 200,000 forbidden troops, excluding the empty salaries that have been eaten over the years, the actual strength is only 60,000 or 70,000!
Therefore, when facing more than half of the 100,000 elite horses of the Jin Kingdom, it will cause the Jin army to be stunned by the rain of arrows before the Jin army has begun to land on the city!
“All the soldiers obey the order, the archers are not moving here, the soldiers of the western city, divide half to save the north city!” In addition, beat the drums to awaken all the people of Bianliang and call on Ding Zhuang in the city to come and help defend the city! ”
Li Gang knew very well that relying only on the Bianliang forbidden army could not stand it, and the two famous generals of the Jin State, Yan Zongwang and Yan Zonghan, wanted to take advantage of the wind and snow to capture Bianliang overnight with absolute superiority in troops!
Unless the entire city is mobilized to help defend, these tens of miles of walls can be held.
Otherwise, if one place is breached, the Jin army will follow that place and pour in like a tide!
With Li Gang’s order, the entire Bianliang moved, and the people who had listened to the shouts of killing outside the city and did not dare to sleep, in panic, were organized, Ding Zhuang went to the head of the city, and women and children, old and weak, boiled gold soup in the city to prepare for the defense of the city.
“Li Fangwen, I’ll help you!”
Li Ruoshui, the official attendant, said loudly: “I have already invited His Majesty and the slaughterers to come to the city to personally recruit to boost morale, just behind!” ”
“Good!”
“If His Majesty personally ascends the city, the morale of the military and the people will still be available!”
Li Gang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, looking at Li Ruoshui behind him, Wu Min He Li, Geng Nanzhong and other slaughterers, with a reluctant look on his face and hugging the same somewhat reluctant emperor Zhao Huan came, Li Gang couldn’t care less, and said loudly: “Give Your Majesty armor, please Your Majesty personally ascend to the city to boost morale!” ”
“Li Qing’s family, can you boost morale here?”
The new emperor Zhao Huan was pale, and his hands were swinging like rattles.
“Li Gang! The city head is so dangerous, you still have to let His Majesty go up, what kind of heart is An! Do you want to put Your Majesty in danger! ”
He Li was beside Zhao Huan and shivered.
He did not dare to face Jin Jun, but he dared to dunk Li Gang’s hat in the city.
“Once the city is broken, the Great Song will be finished!”
Your Majesty is in danger, what is it!
The Bianliang soldiers and civilians in this city, which is not in danger, taking their lives to defend the city!
“Could it be that this Bianliang and the Great Song are theirs, but not His Majesty and you Manchu Dynasty secretaries!”
At present, under the current situation of the great enemy, Li Gang was also anxious, and he couldn’t care about anything and reprimanded He Lidao there.
“Li Gang! You are bold, what a kingless and fatherless word! ”
Wu Min, the prime minister of the new dynasty, also stood up and reprimanded.
“Hmph!”
Li Gang snorted coldly, and simply stopped taking care of Wu Min and He Li, because he knew that it didn’t make sense. These guys who are greedy for life and afraid of death are trying to find a way not to dare to go to the city.
“It’s not good, the Jin army touched it from the southern city wall!”
At this moment, a report from Nancheng came urgently, announcing that Nancheng was also in danger!
“Don’t panic, Divine Guard, Dragon Guard, follow me to support Nancheng!”
“Li Shilang, Xicheng is temporarily handed over to you!”
Li Gang’s face was solemn, but he was in danger, and while organizing reinforcements to rescue Nancheng, he asked Li Ruoshui, who had just arrived, to help him preside over the defense of Xicheng.
But just when Li Gang was about to rescue Nancheng, the new emperor Zhao Huan and Wu Min and other monarchs heard that there were enemy troops boarding Nancheng, and immediately panicked: “The Jin army has broken the city!” Escort! Protect the Palace! ”
“Must, we should escort His Majesty from the east gate to escape from Bianliang, go to the south to find the Emperor Taishang, and then plan in the long run!”
Zhao Huan Wu Min and several other monarchs, the flustered voice and the look of turning around and fleeing, made Li Gang, who had just stabilized people’s hearts, all his hard work in vain.
“Your Majesty and the Prime Ministers have all run away!”
“The emperor and the officials have all run away, what else are we selling!”
“Harm! This bird Da Song is not saved! Let’s run too! ”
“In the southeast corner of the city, there are more than 20,000 horses from the imperial horse supervisor, I will take my wife and children to take the horses and flee south!”
As soon as the emperor and prime ministers ran, some of the defenders and people in the city were suddenly panicked and angry, and turned around and left.
As for what is under the nest, how can there be no eggs, they can’t care. The emperor and prime minister don’t want Bianliang, how can they be counted on? Anyway, as long as you run fast, it will not be yourself who dies.
People who have this kind of thinking were originally only a minority, and other military and civilian people have survived for generations, knowing that they can’t run anywhere, but they still want to stick to it with Li Gang.
However, as those few people fled, the hearts of the people in the city and the defense of the city head made some big and small loopholes. And taking advantage of this opportunity, the Jin Army seized the opportunity, and more and more Jin Army landed in the city!
Seeing it, the city head is about to be completely lost!
“Heaven for, is this Great Song going to die like this!”
“Bianliang and these millions of soldiers and civilians are about to fall into the hands of the golden people!”
At the head of the city, after Li Gang personally cut down a few Jin army servants who boarded the city, watching more and more Jin soldiers landing in the city, and more and more soldiers and civilians fleeing, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart and raised his head to the sky and roared.
“Help! The Jin army has entered the city! ”
“Run! Can’t stop it! ”
At the head of the city and in the city, there were also panicked soldiers and civilians, shouting and fleeing in all directions…
In fact, only a small number of Jin army servants have ascended to the head of the city, but the hearts of the people in the city have collapsed…
Seeing that Bianliang was about to fall into the hands of the Jin army, Yan Zongwang laughed loudly outside the city: “Sons and daughters, Bianliang is about to be breached!” Are you ready to sack this Bianliang City? ”
“After Yan Zongwang, are you ready to let your sons and daughters die under Bianliang City!”
At this moment, a loud shout sounded from the north of Bianliang.
In the wind and snow, under the light of the bianliang soaring fire, I saw a young man in white robes and silver armor, carrying a dragon sunspear, as if falling from the sky, killed from the night…
