The sound of artillery and the sound of crossbows suddenly echoed across the battlefield.
The front of the Jin army's formation was instantly disrupted. The shields could not block the cannonballs. The shields of the shield soldiers at the front were blasted to pieces, and even the soldiers were blasted into pieces.
Immediately afterwards, stones and crossbows rushed towards the Jurchens like raindrops, harvesting lives.
The Jurchens also fought back in the same way, but the artillery kept roaring, and each time it hit a crowded place. The artillery was very powerful. Although the shells would not explode, the projectiles weighing several dozen kilograms were enough to penetrate the military formation for more than ten people in one shot. One step, destroying the formation instantly.
"withdraw!"
Wanyan Gao immediately ordered that although there were many of them, the enemy had their backs to the city and they would not be able to get any favors if they rushed in rashly.
"Uncle Five, I'm going to kill them!"
Jin Wushu was furious and refused to leave.
"Morale has dropped today, retreat quickly!"
Wanyan Gao looked at Jin Wushu and shouted, today is no longer suitable for fighting.
"But!"
Jin Wushu was still a little unwilling, as his side had the numerical advantage.
"The enemy is in Chenzhou and won't be able to escape for a while!"
Wanyan Gao looked at Jin Wushu and reminded him that the enemy had an army of 20,000 people, including many cavalry and baggage. It would not be easy to retreat.
"withdraw!"
Jin Wushu suddenly woke up and immediately ordered the army to retreat.
Seeing that the enemy had withdrawn, Yue Fei did not order a pursuit. After all, their number was too small, and Lu Zhishen and others also took away 3,000 Qingqi. This pursuit would definitely be exposed.
"hang up!"
Fusheng picked up half of Huali Xuexi's body and threw it to a sergeant.
Soon, human heads and corpses were hung on the left and right sides of the Chenzhou City gate.
"These Jurchen thieves are really insidious. They clearly promised to fight to the death and made a bet, but then they ran away during a sneak attack! They are really nothing!"
Sui Sheng complained that he didn't even get the thousand horses, gold and martial arts he won.
"Brother, the enemy has escaped. I'm afraid he will come again tomorrow!"
Xiao Jiasui said.
"Master Lu should be able to arrive outside Liaoyang Mansion before dark tomorrow. He will launch a surprise attack at night. Jin Wushu will get the news in another day. Let Yue Fei play with Jin Wushu in the next few days."
Sun Lei said with a smile.
"What a great general, but you taught him to be like this!"
Zongze, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke. He had been looking at Yue Fei at the foot of the city. At this time, Yue Fei was spitting out plans, saying that when Jin Wushu comes tomorrow, he will definitely get back the thousand horses he owes, otherwise Just bombard them directly.
"Mr. Zong, I don't understand. You are teaching, and I am educating people. Being a human being is a matter of great learning. Only by being a smart person can you live a long life, be rich and prosperous. Look at you, you are already sixty, and the highest is... As a general judge, with your old talent, you should have been granted the title of marquis and general a long time ago. Why? You don’t know how to be a human being!"
Sun Lei said nonchalantly, Yue Fei is good like this, being smart and cunning is worse than being unjustly killed. It is better to die than to live, because only by living can you realize your dreams.
"Wealth cannot be lascivious, poverty cannot be moved, power cannot be subdued!"
Zongze said that he was educated orthodoxly and could not accept Sun Lei's unscrupulous fallacies.
"The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, my old gentleman! What is more important, the reputation or the hundreds of millions of people? You have seen the Liao people! You have also seen the Jurchens! Those are wolves and tigers. In front of them, the Central Plains are like A bleating lamb, you still stick to the same old ways, how can a bleating lamb fight against jackals and tigers?"
Sun Lei looked at Zongze. Sometimes this old man was stubborn, like a stubborn old antique who didn't know how to adapt.
Zongze was speechless for a moment. He also knew that those principles did not make sense to Sun Lei. People like Sun Lei were proud of being thieves and only wanted to be happy. They didn't care about the sages' principles in the books.
"Okay, you can teach Yue Fei more skills in defending the city! I'm going to rest!"
Sun Lei waved his hand and got off the city wall.
Yue Fei won and called the army back to the city. He got two thousand horses in one battle. Yue Fei was very proud, and all the soldiers cheered.
"Pengju!"
Seeing Yue Fei's triumphant look, Zongze frowned and shouted in a deep voice.
"Mr. Zong! Look, they are all good horses!"
Yue Fei pointed at the horses and shouted to Zongze.
"come over!"
Zongze's voice was a little unhappy.
When Yue Fei saw this, he quickly ran over. Everyone laughed when they saw it. Yue Fei is now learning the art of war from Zong Ze, and he can be regarded as a half-student. Zong Ze's voice was not kind. He must have asked Yue Fei to teach him.
"Bring the horse into the city!"
Sun An ordered with a smile. They didn't like Zongze's strict preaching, so naturally they didn't want to get close.
"Mr. Zong?"
On the city wall, Yue Fei looked at Zongze in confusion as to why he had won the battle. Zongze looked unhappy.
"Do you know how dangerous it was just now? What mistake did you make..."
Zongze did not talk about the gangsterism brought out by Sun Lei in Yue Fei. These were beyond his control, but he had to point out the mistakes and omissions made by Yue Fei before the formation just now. Yue Fei was still too young. If it were not for the city, the enemy would not be willing Fighting to the death, what the outcome will be today is uncertain.
…
Jurchen camp.
"Chief, I want to kill those Song people!"
Xuelihuanan and Xuelihuabei knelt down in front of Jin Wushu and begged for his orders with expressions of grief and anger.
"You guys get up first!"
Jin Wushu sighed and looked at the two people in front of him. He brought the four Xuelihua brothers from a small tribe. These four people did not have names at the time. He gave them names, and then they followed him and became his own. The most loyal subordinates, but now two of them died in one battle.
"This group of Liangshan thieves are not simple, they are not simple gangsters!"
Wanyan Gao said with a deep look on his face, after Ye Lu reported back last night, they thought they were facing just a group of southern bandits, but today's battle revealed that these bandits were not stragglers, they were not only well-trained, but also highly skilled in martial arts.
"I don't care so much, I just want to kill you. Are we afraid of a group of water thieves?"
Jin Wushu looked at Wanyan Gao and said.
"Oh Chu, our Dajin Iron Cavalry is naturally invincible, but now that Sun Lei and others are hiding in the city, our cavalry cannot display their combat power at all. It is better to send people to Liaoyang Mansion, mobilize ordnance, and raze Chenzhou City to the ground. Ping Di, force Sun Lei to leave the city!"
Wanyan Gao said, the trebuchets they brought had been destroyed by artillery. Now it was impossible to attack the city, so they could only go back and continue to bring in ordnance.
"Okay, send the order to bring the trebuchets, crossbows, and artillery from Liaoyang Mansion. I want Sun Lei and Yue Fei to die without a burial place!"
Jin Wushu immediately ordered.
"The general will go where he wishes!"
Ye Lu immediately clasped his fists and said, last night when he was on a mission to Chenzhou, Sun Lei and others insulted him in every possible way, and he was angry with Sun Lei and others.
"Okay, Master Ye, go back!"
Jin Wushu nodded. Ye Lu was a rare knowledgeable person in the Jin Kingdom. Going back to mobilize ordnance could reduce mistakes.
"Report, Prince, there is an arrow shot into the camp, and there is a letter on it!"
A soldier ran into the camp and handed over a letter.
Jin Wushu took the letter, which had the four big characters "Jin Wushu Qi" written on it, and the three small characters "Yue Feishu" on the corner.
"A thousand horses, you lose!"
Opening the envelope, there were only these few words on the paper.
"You still want horses? Dream on!"
Jin Wushu crumbled the letter and still put it into the brazier with a sarcastic look on his face. That boy Yue Fei still wanted horses. It was simply wishful thinking. (End of chapter)
