The battle is going on fiercely. The soldiers of the Shimen Army composed of Jianghu disciples on this city are being crushed and beaten by the soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty. Although the soldiers of the Shimen Army are well-equipped, there are too many soldiers in the Southern Song Dynasty. There is no general command on the front of the city, so that the officers and soldiers will be forced to retreat steadily. If the believer Zhao Zhen comes one step later, I'm afraid this city will be captured by the officers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty!
The arrival of the King of Letter Zhao Zhen greatly relieved the pressure on the soldiers on the city. At least those soldiers who saw King of Letter Zhao Zhen came personally, they also had the backbone in their hearts, and they began to fight back.
Xin Wang Zhao Zhen led a team of guards all the way to the center of the city. Seeing that there were soldiers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty who were continuously climbing up the city head along the ladder, immediately Xin Wang Zhao Zhen assassinated the soldiers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty with a long spear while moving to the left and right. The officers and soldiers shouted: "Spread these ladders away! Sweep away! Don't let the officers and soldiers continue to rush up to the city head!"
After shouting, Xinwang Zhaozhen took the lead to grab the female wall. A Southern Song officer and soldier was sticking out his head from the other side of the city wall. Xinwang Zhaozhen immediately stabbed him with a single shot, leaving a hole in his forehead. The soldier's face still had the joy of successfully climbing to the top of the city, but he didn't have the strength to support his body, and fell on his back. The letter king Zhao Zhen hit the iron while it was hot, and stepped forward, but the long spear in his hand hooked down and hit the ladder. With an angry cry, he pushed out the ladder that was already full of soldiers and soldiers abruptly. With the screams of several officers and soldiers, the ladder traversed a path in the air, then left the city wall and fell down.
And the soldiers and generals of the Shimen army and soldiers all followed the same pattern, cutting and killing the Southern Song officers and soldiers on the city head, while struggling to push away the ladders. After all, these ladders were made temporarily, and the officers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty had to use them on the four walls, so there were not many ladders set up here. Of course, those officers and soldiers would not watch the officers and soldiers push away the ladder, breaking the bloody path they finally managed to kill, and desperately obstructing them. For a while, the fighting on the city's head heated up again! It gets more intense.
However, the equipment of these Southern Song officers and soldiers was far too poor compared to the Shimen Army soldiers carefully equipped by Xin Wang Zhaozhen, and now the morale of the Shimen Army soldiers has gradually improved under the leadership of Xin Wang Zhao Zhen. In this way, the situation on the entire city gradually began to turn around. As the ladders were pushed away by officers and soldiers, fewer and fewer officers and soldiers could rush to the city. Of course, many ladders that have been pushed aside have been put up again, but such a delay also greatly slowed the speed of the Southern Song officers and soldiers assaulting the city. The officers and soldiers on the city have been suppressed by the officers and soldiers under the command of King Zhao Zhen. In the corner of the city head, there is no longer any big waves.
Seeing that the general situation had been set, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen was relieved. At this time, Wang Zhiyi also stretched out his hand to cover the wound on his arm. At the time of the battle, the soldiers of Xinwang Zhaozhen were not unscathed. At least seven of his guards were killed and a dozen injured. Fortunately, the injured guards were not injured in any vital parts. Will not affect their actions.
Taking a look at the Southern Song officers and soldiers who had been forced into the corner but were still stubbornly resisting, Xin Wang Zhaozhen's eyes flashed a trace of hostility, and the soldiers under his opponent made a gesture of slashing down. When the soldiers met, they naturally understood what it meant by believing in Wang Zhaozhen. Originally, they were only trapping those officers and soldiers in Youdou, but after receiving the order, they began to slam the killer. Soon, the soldiers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty. The one who didn't stay, all fell in a pool of blood.
The offensive on the front of the city was blocked, and the officers and soldiers outside the city were unable to organize any favorable offensives for the time being. The King of Letter Zhao Zhen also had time to stand beside the female wall and look out of the city.
Outside the city, a middle-aged soldier with a team of cavalry was rushing and killing, I saw that middle-aged soldier wielding a long-handled saber in his hand, riding a maroon horse, walking in the city. The officers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty outside kept fighting each other during the siege. Although there are countless officers and soldiers outside the city, there is nothing to do with the middle-aged warlord. The middle-aged warlord can come and go freely with one knife and one horse, and no one can resist the long knife in his hand.
"Master Zhao! General Shan Hongfei has been fighting outside the city for an hour, shall we go out of the city to help?" A lieutenant of Shan Hongfei who knew Wang Zhaozhen walked to the side of Xin Wang Zhao Zhen and watched the fight outside the city. The middle-aged warrior is full of worries.
The letter king Zhao Zhen waved his hand indifferently, and said, "It's okay! Don't worry about the safety of General Shan Hongfei! You just need to guard the city head well! Those officers and soldiers will naturally retreat when they see that they can't do anything! At that time General Shan Hongfei's plight was naturally solved!"
As if to confirm the words of Wang Zhaozhen, the middle-aged warlord who was fighting outside the city laughed up to the sky and shouted: "Have fun! Have a good time! Shan Mou wants to see! How about you mobs! Take our lives! Come on! Come on! Hahahaha! Brothers, kill!"
The letter king Zhao Zhen smiled slightly, pointing to the middle-aged warlord outside the city and said to the lieutenant with a smile: "Look! I'm right! General Shan Hongfei is fine! We want to repel the officers and soldiers as soon as possible! "The lieutenant also heard the shouts of the middle-aged general and the cavalry soldiers, his face could not help showing a strange look, but he smiled helplessly. He held his fist and shouted at Xinwang Zhaozhen, then walked away to direct the army to continue its deployment, and to continue fighting with the enemy soldiers who were ready to attack the city again.
Xin Wang Zhao Zhen looked at the warrior fighting outside the city, nodded to Wang Zhiyi behind him, and motioned him to bandage the wound.
However, Wang Zhiyi moved his injured arm. It didn't seem to be too serious. It was just that the blood from the wound flowed to his hand, and there were some slippery hands.
Wang Zhiyi saw that there was no fighting for the time being, so he simply put the spear aside, tore a long cloth from the corpses of the soldiers and soldiers on the ground, and briefly bandaged the wound on his arm.
Wang Zhiyi had just bandaged and heard the sound of gold ringing outside the city, and the Southern Song officers and soldiers who had been unable to attack for a long time retreated like a tide. But the middle-aged warlord who was fighting outside the city met, but he refused to give up, shouted, and patted the horse and led the army to chase him down. The letter king Zhao Zhen saw him and hurriedly shouted: "General Shan Hongfei! General Shan Hongfei! Don't chase anymore! Don't chase anymore!"
What a joke, it’s nothing more than fighting under the city wall before. If there is any problem, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen can still send people to rescue at any time, but if he rushes to the camp of the Southern Song Dynasty officers and soldiers, the middle-age war will bring less than a thousand. People, even if they have three heads and six arms, I'm afraid they are unpleasant!
Hearing the shouts from the top of the city, the middle-aged warlord looked back, but grinned and shouted: "Haha! It turns out to be Your Highness! Okay! I'll leave it to you! Stop chasing! Open the door quickly! I'll go in! I've just killed for so long, but I'm a bit thirsty!"
Hearing the words of the middle-aged warrior, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen couldn't help but curl his lips, and immediately let the soldiers go down and open the door for the middle-aged warrior. After more than half a month of understanding, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen finally understood some of the wars of these heroes.
The leaders of these rivers and lakes gangs are indeed very brave, and the current Shimen Army of Xin Wang Zhaozhen has achieved this level through the training of General Shan Hongfei. But the problem is that the current Shan Hongfei is too impulsive. As soon as the officers and soldiers attacked the city, Shan Hongfei's head became hot, and he led a team of people and horses alone to rush out of the city and fight with the officers and soldiers.
When he left, there was no one to command the city. The generals of the Southern Song Dynasty officers and soldiers were not fools. Seeing that General Shan Hongfei and his cavalry were all martial arts, they simply sent some people to trap General Shan Hongfei. The rest of the people attacked the city directly, so the situation just happened.
Calculating carefully, this is the seventh time that Wang Zhaozhen has come here to save the field this day. If it weren't for Wang Zhaozhen, I am afraid this Shimen City would have been breached.
The letter Wang Zhao Zhen also persuaded Shan Hongfei several times, but Shan Hongfei always smiled and promised well when he was in front of him, but every time he encountered a siege, he still did not miss it. Over time, the letter Wang Zhao Zhen also Just don't waste the saliva. This Shan Hongfei has become very desperate since he knew that he was a true believer and was rewarded as a defender by himself.
However, Shan Hongfei, who was as cunning as a fox when calculating, learned that his lord was a true believer, and he truly became a leader of a party. After facing the real battle, especially after he was appointed as the chief general of Shimen, he became a little positive and impulsive.
Seeing General Shan Hongfei, who was named the master general, drove his horse into the city with a look of unsatisfactory expression, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen shook his head. It was broken by the officers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Looking up at the two remaining city gates in the distance, although there are beacon smokes from time to time, there is no sign of breaking the city. Xinwang Zhaozhen dispatched No.1 and Cui Hu each with a team of elite Xinwang soldiers. Supported, there is no danger in coming to Miao Yufeng and Hua Zhonglong.
Although the generals Miao Yufeng and Hua Zhonglong who were stationed at the two gates were not great generals, they focused on stability. In addition, the officers and soldiers outside the two city gates are far less powerful than the Southern Song officers and soldiers guarded by him and General Shan Hongfei, so there must be no big problem.
The sky is gradually over, and the sun sets. Although today finally repelled the offensive of the officers and soldiers, the letter king Zhao Zhen didn't feel much happy. Because he knew that this battle did not end so easily.
Moreover, in the heart of Xinwang Zhaozhen, he was still unwilling to blatantly use the army of Xinwang's army. Although from his mother's urn, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen received Huizong's imperial decree, Huizong awarded Xin Wang Zhao Zhen as the Grand Marshal of the National Soldiers and Horses, and promised him the next prince.
However, after all, the current Zhao Gou is the emperor, and once occupied the advantage of the nominal time. Now, less than a month has passed since the peace talks between the king of Xin Wang and the three parties of Jin and Song.
Once he first used the army of the King of Letters to start a war, then he would be nominally repulsed and resisted by the local soldiers and civilians of the Southern Song Dynasty. Therefore, now Xin Wang Zhao Zhen can only use the existing Shimen City army, and Wu Jie's army, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen has been flying pigeons and telling them not to come to support. As long as Wu Jie protects Luo Yue'er, Mei'er's family, Ji Qianqian and others, it will be his greatest help.
And Xin Wang Zhao Zhen is not completely unprepared. What he relies on is the countless uprisings since the beginning of the year. Now it is only five months after the Zhong Xiang uprising, and it will be five years later. Only the officers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty could react and destroy Yang Yao.
According to normal history, Gaozong Zhaogou dispatched an army led by Yue Fei to suppress Yang Yao, and Yang Yaocai suffered successive failures and finally defeated. And now, many generals and Yue Fei are already under the army of Wang Zhaozhen, so the battle to encircle and suppress Yang Yao will probably be further prolonged. In addition to the peasant army who rebelled in other places and the heroes of all parties, the current Zhao Gou is actually splitting his troops to suppress it. If there are too many troops to encircle Shimen, it will definitely cause a large-scale uprising on Jinghu North Road to rebound.
As long as I persisted for a while, waited until the rebels of Yang Yao, Yingxuan and others moved, and began to launch a counterattack against the officers and soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty. Then the Shimen City, which was managed by the faithful king Zhao Zhen painstakingly, was really not that easy to be destroyed.
On the other hand, Xinwang Zhaozhen is still worried that until now, the name of Zhang Jun has not appeared among the Southern Song soldiers who attacked Shimen. This Jun’s army is one of the most effective soldiers in the Southern Song Dynasty. He is a member of the elite Imperial Guard of the Song Dynasty.
And Zhang Jun is definitely one of the very few officers and soldiers in the Southern Song Dynasty who can conquer good combat. If the army he commanded here is a relatively powerful soldier, Xin Wang Zhaozhen believes that these officers and soldiers will definitely not be repelled so easily.
Although I don't know why Zhang Jun's imperial guards did not appear in Shimen City, but according to the order they received from Zhao Go, this Shimen must be their target.
Therefore, it would be a matter of time before Zhang Jun's elite army adapted from the Imperial Guard appeared in Shimen City. But now Shimen City consumes a lot of food, grass and defense equipment, and I don't know how long it will be able to support it. This is because some time ago, after secretly occupying the granary outside Fengyang, Fengzhou, a lot of food was supplied. Otherwise, I am afraid that Shimen will be out of food now.
These various problems are now about to make the letter Wang Zhao Zhen sad, but the letter Wang Zhao Zhen is very clear. From the moment he fooled these gang disciples to follow him to smash the stone gate, he has been tightly connected with the army formed by these gang disciples. Tied together.
If Zhao Zhen, the king of faith, wants to continue to achieve his goals, the only way is to repel the besieged officers and soldiers!
"Hahahaha! Lord! What are you thinking about!" A rough laugh interrupted Xinwang Zhao Zhen's thoughts. He couldn't help but look up. General Shan Hongfei was already walking quickly. Chengtou was walking towards him with a smile.
"General Shan Hongfei!" Shan Hongfei's identity is the only official general in the city, so when Xin Wang Zhao Zhen saw Shan Hongfei, he still had to show some face.
However, Shan Hongfei smiled and said, "Lord, you came over so soon. If you want to come to your side, you have already repelled the officers and soldiers, right?"
The letter king Zhao Zhen smiled and replied: "Don't worry! When the people you sent to me, I just ended the battle!"
At this moment, outside the city, Fang Jiang Zhongzheng, the officer and general who was in charge of attacking the East City Gate, watched the officers and soldiers in front of him slowly retreating, but he didn't say a word. The teenager Wang Yun who was beside him knew that Fang Jiangzhong was burning in his heart at the moment, so he naturally did not dare to speak much, for fear that the fire in Fang Jiangzhong's heart would not be emitted, but it was scattered on his head.
When all the officers and soldiers had retreated into the camp, Fang Jiangzhong did not rush into the camp. Instead, he stationed his horse at the gate of the barracks, looking at the direction of Shimen City, as if waiting for something. It didn't take long for him to see an officer and soldier rushing towards this side. Fang Jiangzhong's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he even couldn't wait. He directly greeted him.
Before the officer and soldier could speak, Fang Jiangzhong rushed to ask: "How is it? How is the battle going on with General Zhang Jun?"
The officer and soldier got off their horses, but kneeled directly in front of Fang Jiangzhong, clasped his fists and replied: "Give it back to General! General Zhang also returned without success. I heard that General Zhang lost more than 2,000 people under the siege today! For this reason, General Zhang is still furious in the camp!"
After hearing the soldier’s reply, Fang Jiangzhong breathed a long sigh of relief and laughed: "Okay! Good! As long as Zhang Jun is not ahead of me, it’s fine! Hmph, even though your officer is older than me, it’s better. The hero of the rescue, but our Fang Jiangzhong will surpass you sooner or later!"
After Fang Jiangzhong got his own satisfactory answer, the depression in his heart dissipated a bit, and then he walked back. Just walked to the entrance of the big tent in the middle of the barracks, Fang Jiangzhong just got off the horse, and the young general Wang Yun caught up. Jiang Zhong asked with an anxious expression: "General, where did you go? The final admiral is here. You're old for a long time! Come in quickly! Something has happened!"
Although he knew that Zhang Jun didn't break the city in front of him, Fang Jiangzhong still failed today, so his mood was not much better. Seeing Wang Yun actually talking to himself like this, he gave Wang Yun a fierce look and shouted, "What are you talking about? I'm fine! What big things can happen!"
"Humph!" Wang Yun was so scolded by Fang Jiangzhong that he didn't dare to lift his head, but from the army tent next to him, there was a cold snort, and a cold male voice rang out: "It seems Fang Da The general is still very prestigious! Is he already regarded as the commander-in-chief of the army?"
