Prince of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 651: The fire broke through the enemy

Views:

The one called Song Dashan was a general at the commanding level of the Liu Jiajun. Like Li Wentai, although Song Dashan was not as famous in the Liu Jiajun as Baixi and others, he was considered a general. Compared with a younger brother like Li Wentai, Song Dashan, who was born in a stubborn family, can have today's status, it is all he made with one shot. It is precisely because of this that Song Dashan is also well used by Zhao Guang. This time he designed to ambush the pioneer army of the Song Army. Zhao Guang also specially appointed Song Dashan as the commander of the ambush army, which shows Zhao Guang's trust in Song Dashan.

Hearing the other party's inquiry, Song Dashan moved his gaze away from the head of Longquan City and frowned at the young general. The identity of this general is not simple. It is Wang Yuanhua's son Wang Ziping who died in the Liu Jiajun territory to save Liu Tong. Although Wang Ziping was young, but his skills were no less than his father, Liu Tong was hailed as Liu Jiajun's future general. In addition, his father, Wang Yuanhua, died in a battle to save Liu Tong, and Liu Tong paid no less attention to Wang Ziping than the members of the Liu clan. Hearing the news, it seems that after the end of the Longquan battle, Liu Tong intends to accept Wang Ziping as his son and give his grandson Liu. This means that Wang Ziping will soon be flat.

This time, Zhao Guang sent Wang Ziping to Song Dashan's side with obvious intentions. If he only accepted Wang Ziping as Liu Tong's son, I am afraid it would be difficult to convince the public. So Zhao Guang sent Wang Ziping so that he could be plated with gold in this ambush of the Song Army vanguard.

There is nothing wrong for Zhao Guanghui to think so. Song Dashan would naturally not refuse anything that could please Liu Tong. In their eyes, this ambush Song Jun should be a sure thing. But Song Dashan didn't expect that such a change would happen. How could a good ambush turn into a cruel siege? Thinking of this, Song Dashan couldn't help cursing Li Wentai who was in charge of garrisoning Longquan City. He yelled so badly at ordinary times, but it was so useless on the battlefield.

I blamed it, but this battle will continue. Song Dashan pondered for a moment and said: "Now we can only build a ladder quickly and break down Longquan City as soon as possible." Song Dashan also knew that this way, From an ambush that was easily won to a head-to-head battle, Liu Jiajun will surely suffer heavy losses. But there is no other way. You can't just watch Longquan fall into the enemy's hands like this.

The prince didn't think much about it, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Yes! I will do it at the end." After speaking, the prince turned his head and left without talking nonsense at all.

Seeing Wang Ziping's back, Song Dashan couldn't help but sighed. Although Wang Ziping was not extroverted and talkative before, he was definitely not the indifferent personality he is now. Since the news of Wang Yuanhua's death in Liu Jiajun's battle came, Wang Ziping has always looked like this. Even if Liu Tong let him be accepted as a son, Wang Ziping's face didn't improve much. Song Dashan is also very sympathetic to Wang Ziping's experience, but this is the case in troubled times. Wang Yuan has been mentally prepared as he turns into a warrior and is still in the shroud on the battlefield. I hope Wang Ziping can get out of this shadow as soon as possible.

Taking this thought back from Wang Ziping, Song Dashan turned his head and looked at the city head of Longquan City. Looking at the Song Army on the city head who had already set up the defense line, his brows were frowned again. In Song Dashan’s eyes, Zhao Guang’s previous plan was perfect. Song Dashan did nothing wrong in implementing Zhao Guang’s plan. However, this kind of change still happened, which made Song Dashan feel that there was something like this. Ominous premonition, it seems that this ambush Song Jun's operation will not succeed.

This time, the Liu Jiajun brought by Song Dashan totaled more than 18,000 people, all of which were secretly transferred by Zhao Guang from the deployment of the Nan'an army in order to hide from the spies of the Song army. This 8,000 people can be said to be the maximum limit that Zhao Guang can draw out. The Song Army’s vanguard army had nearly 5,000 people. It stands to reason that even if they entered a siege war, Song Dashan, who was 8,000 people attacking the 5,000-guarded Longquan City, should be able to win, but Song Dashan suddenly had such a thought, will there be a sudden change like today

Thinking of this, Song Dashan himself couldn't help but laugh bitterly. If that was the case, it means that the heavens really wanted to destroy Liu Jiajun. Thinking like this, Song Dashan shook his head, forcibly put those thoughts behind him, and began to concentrate on tactics, preparing to attack Longquan City.

By the next day, Liu Jiajun outside the city had already prepared the siege equipment and began to attack Longquan City. What made Ji Qianqian and Huazhonglong breathed a sigh of relief was that Liu Jiajun didn't seem to choose to besiege Longquan City, but instead focused on the West Gate of Longquan City. Seeing this scene, Ji Qianqian, who had just arrived in the city, suddenly laughed. Seeing Ji Qianqian smiled, Hua Zhonglong on the side was also confused, and hurriedly asked: "Master Ji. Why are you smiling?"

Ji Qianqian pointed to Liu Jiajun who was rushing towards the city wall outside the city and smiled: "Yesterday Liu Jiajun deployed such an ambush plan. I expected that this plan must be set by Zhao Guang. If Zhao Guang is here, we are here. Fan defended Longquan City only half of the time. But right now, the enemy army did not give full play to its superiority in strength, besieging Longquan from all sides, but focused on the West Gate. Zhao Guang would never make such a mediocre move. Obviously Zhao Guang is not here. In this way, I am 90% sure that I can hold Longquan."

What Ji Qianqian said made the dragon head confused, and didn't understand what Ji Qianqian meant, but he also knew that Ji Qianqian was sure to guard Longquan. Immediately Hua Zhonglong nodded vigorously, letting go of his heart, and said with a smile, "Master Ji, since you said that, then I can let go and fight. You should retreat to the city, this I'll leave it to me to fight, kill, and kill." After that, Hua Zhonglong took a single-handed approach and took a step forward, preparing to defend the city with the soldiers.

Ji Qianqian smiled dumbly, but did not retreat from the city as Hua Zhonglong said, but smiled and said to Hua Zhonglong: "General Hua is in no hurry. Although he is defending the city, there are many ways. Let me look at me first. The defense strategy prepared last night, come up." Ji Qianqian waved her hand behind her and shouted. Soon there was the sound of a drink. I saw a group of people holding a large piece of stuff and rushing to the top of the city. Hua Zhonglong saw that it was the officer Wentong who made great achievements in breaking the city yesterday. But now Wentong is no longer just a small officer, because he was the first to break through the city gate, Hua Zhonglong also promoted him to a captain in the army. Hua Zhonglong was relieved when he saw Wentong. It's no wonder that he didn't see Wentong's figure early in the morning. It turned out that Ji Qianqian was called to do errands.

Not to mention Wentong was injured so badly yesterday, but after being bandaged by a physician in the city yesterday, after recuperating for one night, he turned out to be alive and well again. On the top of the city, Wen Tong gave a military salute to Hua Zhonglong and Ji Qianqian, and shouted: "The villain has seen General Hua. Lord Ji."

Ji Qianqian smiled and waved to Wentong, and asked, "How about it? Are everything I asked you to prepare?"

Wen Tong immediately shouted to Ji Qianqian: "The villain is ready. Please Master Ji to check." With that, Wen Tong turned one side of his body and let out the pile of things that were thrown on the ground by the soldiers behind him. Zhonglong looked at it intently, and it turned out to be a large pile of wood, and there were still a lot of them. Looking back along the dry wood, they piled all the way to the city, completely occupying the open space in front of the city gate.

Now the dragon in the flower doesn't understand Ji Qianqian's intentions anymore. What is it to do with so much wood? Even if it is to be used to hit people, it should be to move rocks. These pieces of wood are all dry wood, light and light, and they won't hurt people at all. At this time, Wentong also said to Ji Qianqian: "Master Ji. All the dry wood in the city is already here. The villain, according to the orders of the adults, is all in exchange for money, and he did not take it forcibly. "This dry wood is not worth much, although there are a lot of them, but it doesn't cost much.

Ji Qianqian nodded, took a step forward, grabbed a piece of dry wood with her hand, and squeezed it hard. The dry wood was so brittle, it was broken abruptly by Ji Qianqian. Regarding this, Ji Qianqian was very satisfied, nodded and said to Wentong: "Okay. Move these dry wood to the side of the female wall and wait for my order." Ji Qianqian pointed to the female wall on the other side of the city. At the same time, he motioned to all the soldiers standing by the female wall to leave.

"Huh?" Ji Qianqian's behavior made Hua Zhonglong more and more confused, but Hua Zhonglong hesitated for a while, but decided to follow Ji Qianqian's opinion, waved his hand, and signaled the soldiers to act according to Ji Qianqian's words. . As for Wentong, he ordered the soldiers following him to pick up dry wood and rush to the female wall. After a while, dry firewood was piled up high on the side of the female wall. At this time, Liu Jiajun outside the city had already rushed under the city wall, and the archers began to shoot arrows toward the city to suppress them, and the ladders that were rushed out were also erected on the city wall one after another, and the infantry began to climb up the ladder. climb.

"Master Ji." Hua Zhonglong is anxious now. Although he is not afraid of death, he does not want to defeat the battle inexplicably. At the moment, the defenders near the female wall are all mobilized, and only the dry firewood is left. How can you resist those Liu Jiajun

Ji Qianqian made a soothing gesture to Hua Zhonglong, smiled and nodded to Wentong, and said: "Wentong. Do it."

Wen Tong, who was ordered by Ji Qianqian, waved his hands to the left and right men at the same time. As soon as they turned around, one of them pushed the dry wood that was hardly piled there off the female wall, and immediately put it on the top of the city. Nearly half of the dry wood was pushed down under the city wall. Huazhonglong hurriedly ran to the female wall, lowered his head and looked down. As expected, after the firewood was pushed down, it did not play a big role at all. Only a very small part of the enemy soldiers were fired. It was too much to fall, but most of the Liu Jiajun soldiers continued to climb up against the dry firewood, and did not take the dry firewood seriously.

"This?" Although Hua Zhonglong had expected this result from the beginning, because this plan was invented by Ji Qianqian, Hua Zhonglong subconsciously chose to trust Ji Qianqian, but he did not expect this result to be the same. Hua Zhonglong looked at Ji Qianqian in astonishment, but didn't understand how a smart person like Ji Qianqian could do such a stupid thing

Ji Qianqian didn’t tell the difference, she just smiled faintly, without any movement, but Wentong next to him did not know where he drew out a set of bows and arrows, and set fire to the head of the cloth wrapped with kerosene. , He shot directly down the city wall. Not only him, but also Wentong's subordinates all followed Wentong, shooting a rocket straight down the city wall.

The number of those rockets is not large, there are only more than a hundred. For Liu Jiajun outside the city, it is almost negligible. But when Hua Zhonglong turned his head and looked outside the city, he couldn't help but be stunned. Because the rocket fired by Wentong and the others did not aim at the Liu Jiajun who was climbing on the ladder, but directly hit the dry firewood that they had dropped before.

Although the number of those rockets was small, they landed on the dry wood that even sparks could ignite, and immediately ignited a raging fire. When the fire started, it was out of control. Under the city wall surrounding the entire West City Gate, the fire spread, and thick black and blue smoke immediately filled the sky, completely isolating Liu Jiajun under the city wall from the city wall. Those Liu Congxi soldiers who were too late to escape were immediately surrounded by flames and screamed, but there was flames all over their bodies, and the comrades around them did not dare to approach them. They could only let them roll on the ground and were finally caught Burned alive.

Not only that, the flames also began to slowly climb up those ladders, and this was a pain for those Liu Jiajun soldiers who had already climbed the ladders. Below is the raging fire, if they jump off the ladder, it will only be a dead end. And when he looked up, it was originally empty, but now it was covered with sharp blades. As long as they go up, there is absolutely no escape.

After hesitating in this way, the flames had already climbed onto the ladder under their feet. They also instinctively let go of their hands after being burnt, and in the end they could only fall into the city one after another and be buried by the fire. A small number of Liu Jiajun soldiers simply gritted their teeth and rushed up bitterly, but in the end they couldn't escape the fate of death. They were killed by the defenders above the city, and their bodies were also lost.

"Hahahaha!" On the top of the city, Hua Zhonglong couldn't help but laughed loudly, then turned to Ji Qianqian and shouted: "Master Ji. Your method really works. Hahahaha! Burn! Kill these bastards.” Before, he was still worried about whether Ji Qianqian's noise would cause Longquan City to be breached, but now it seems that there is no need to worry at all. Hua Zhonglong couldn't help it even, he picked up a few dry wood and threw it down the city to help the fire.

Seeing the excited look of Hua Zhonglong, Ji Qianqian also laughed, squinting at Liu Jiajun who was at a loss outside the city. Although I don't know who the general Liu Jiajun is outside the city, seeing that Liu Jiajun's formation was burned out by his own fire, it can be seen that the other party is definitely not his opponent.

Anyway, Ji Qianqian had never thought of defeating this enemy that was several times larger than his own. His goal was to drag this soldier to Longquan City. Although I don’t know where Liu Tong transferred the nearly 20,000 people, the total number of soldiers and horses of the Nan'an Army is only so small. Liu Tong has mobilized nearly 20,000 people here, and the defenses of other places must be weakened. . When the time comes, only waiting for your majesty's army to kill, the other towns of the Nan'an Army will not be able to stop the adults' offensive at all. As for these Liu Jiajun, even Liu Tong himself will not be protected by that time, how much waves can they make

Set up a plan in her heart, Ji Qianqian smiled and said to Hua Zhonglong: "Okay! General Hua. The whole city's dry wood is here, we have to save a bit. Just burn these ladders, then That's it. Without the ladder, they would not be able to attack the city. They also need to prepare the ladder materials, so we can hold Longquan for one more day."

Now Hua Zhonglong admired Ji Qianqian from the bottom of my heart. What Ji Qianqian said, Hua Zhonglong listened, and desperately nodded his head, and said to Ji Qianqian: "Master Ji is right. Hahahaha! First! Let go of these bastards. We will burn him again until tomorrow."

"Mother!" In the big tent of the Liu family barracks, Song Dashan smashed a low table with an angry face, but still looked puzzled. Looking up, there was a mess in the entire big tent, and there was nothing to vent his anger.

It's no wonder that Song Dashan was so angry. With their nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, they went to attack Longquan City, which was stationed by the Song Army, which was less than 5,000, but they had no results for three consecutive days.

Song Dashan originally thought that the enemy had hit his own ambush, and this battle should be over soon, but he didn't expect it to be delayed for so long.

You know, Song Dashan was in front of the generals of the Liu Family Army and assured the adults that when the battle came out, Song Dashan's face was lost.
