"Jin Wushu, you cowardless thief!"
Yue Fei continued to yell and curse.
But no one responded in the Jurchen camp, but it could be seen from the crowd of heads behind the camp wall that the Jurchens were ready.
"What should I do? Jin Wushu is too determined to get out of his mind."
Yue Fei looked at Sun Lei helplessly. He had tried his best, but there was nothing he could do until the enemy came out.
"Let's go!"
Sun Lei looked at the camp and shook his head and said, they have few people and it is impossible to attack the camp by force.
"Just leave like that?"
Yue Fei looked at the quiet Jurchen camp.
"Otherwise? We can't attack by force with just a few people, right?"
Sun Lei said.
"Pull the artillery over and blast open the camp wall!"
Yue Fei is now very confident in artillery. This thing is a powerful weapon for attacking cities and demolishing strongholds.
"No, the artillery is too heavy. If Jin Wushu rushes out, we won't be able to take it away for a while. We can't leave this thing to the aliens!"
Sun Lei shook his head and said, the Jurchens are a nation that is very good at learning. The secrets of improved artillery must not be known to the Jurchens, otherwise the consequences will be endless.
In the Jurchen camp, Jin Wushu was staring at the Liangshan army outside the camp.
"Come in quick attack! Quick attack!"
Jin Wushu gritted his teeth and said that he was now waiting for Yue Fei to come and attack the camp.
Jin Wushu looked back at the soldiers with low morale, and was filled with hatred. If it hadn't been for the heavy casualties caused by the trap last night, and now the morale in the camp was low, he would have wanted to lead his men out and kill Yue Fei's men.
But what Jin Wushu didn't expect was that the Liangshan army left directly without saying a word.
"Damn it, kill!"
Jin Wushu yelled immediately.
But when Jin Wushu led his troops out of the camp, the Liangshan army had already gone far, and the leading troops began to enter the city, so the pursuit was still over.
"When my trebuchet comes, I will kill you without a place to die!"
Jin Wushu roared angrily.
…
Liaoyang Mansion.
Lu Zhishen led his soldiers and horses all the way north along the Liao River. After a long detour, they finally arrived.
"I almost got lost in the fog!"
Lu Zhishen sighed and said that this sneak attack almost failed due to heavy fog. Fortunately, there was Liao Shui to guide the direction.
"Master Lu, it's getting late, how can we fight?"
Tang Bin looked at Lu Zhishen and asked.
"This city is so tall that our three thousand light cavalry cannot attack by force! We should just follow the plan and use bombs to make some noise."
Lu Zhishen looked at Liaoyang Mansion in the distance and shook his head. Liaoyang Mansion was the former capital of Liaodong. The city had been established for a long time and was not easy to capture.
"Master Lu, there is movement!"
Hua Rong suddenly pointed to the official road and said.
Everyone hid and looked towards the official road, only to see Ye Lu leading a group of cavalry rushing towards Liaoyang Mansion.
"That person is Ye Lu. Is he here to bring reinforcements?"
Wen Zhongrong said.
"Looks like we have a fight!"
Lu Zhishen suddenly smiled.
"Master, there are only a few of us. I'm afraid we don't have enough troops to support us."
Hao Siwen said, their original strategic goal was just to build momentum or attack the food and baggage, but it was not easy for them to fight the reinforcements.
"It's okay, don't we have some bombs? Just blow them up!"
Lu Zhishen smiled and said, he only has three thousand Qingqi here, and they can only ambush and harass them, but cannot fight head-on.
Lu Zhishen arranged everything and let the army hide in the woods to rest.
Nothing happened all night.
At dawn, the city gates of Liaoyang Prefecture opened wide, chariots and horses galloped, and trebuchets slowly left the city under the pull of cattle and horses.
"Trebuchet? Crossbow? And... cyclone cannon?"
Hua Rong's face gradually became serious as he looked at the convoy. Whether it was a trebuchet, a crossbow or a cyclone cannon, it was not a big problem. But what he didn't expect was that there were so many, hundreds of them, anything. As soon as it comes up, there will be a qualitative change.
"I didn't expect that these barbarians would hide so many equipment!"
Lu Zhishen's face looked gloomy as he looked at the frames that kept leaving the city.
"This is taking out all the stuff from the bottom of the box. Aren't they just for defending the city?"
Tang Bin pointed to some small trebuchets on carriages, which are usually used to defend cities.
"It looks like he's getting anxious. Go and plant the bombs quickly. Let's destroy them all for him!"
Lu Zhishen looked at Tang Bin, Hao Siwen, Wen Zhongrong, and Cui Ye and said, trebuchets are so heavy and heavy that they can't move fast even if they are pulled by ox horses. They have all the time to plant bombs on the road.
"Brother Hua Rong, when the time comes, find a place to attack with arrows!"
Lu Zhishen looked at Hua Rong and said.
"Okay! After the explosion, I will lead the troops to shoot!"
Hua Rong nodded.
On the official road, the large group of vehicles and horses moved forward slowly, and the heavy equipment seriously slowed down the marching speed.
"This won't work, we must rush to the front line!"
Seeing that the march was slow, Ye Lu immediately urged him. At this speed, it would take at least five days to get to the front line. Jin Wushu couldn't wait five days.
"Meng'an, these things are too heavy, there's nothing we can do!"
A general said, "No matter how much Ye Lu urges, it's useless. The trebuchet can't run fast even if it's pulled by ten horses."
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
While they were talking, the ground shook, bursts of explosions sounded, the carriage was overturned by the explosion, and the huge trebuchet crashed to the ground, crushing many soldiers to death.
"what happened?"
Ye Lu only felt that his ears were deafened, his head was a little dazed, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.
"kill!"
At this moment, Lu Zhishen, Hua Rong, Tang Bin, Hao Siwen, Wen Zhongrong, and Cui Ye came out with their men.
Hua Rong led the archers to shoot for a while, killing all the enemies running in front of him.
Lu Zhishen and others did not pay attention to the enemy. They rushed towards the grain and grass in the rear. After killing the enemy, they set fire to the grain and grass.
"It's an enemy, kill!"
Ye Lu finally reacted at this time and quickly called for the army to fight back.
But the servants who were stunned by the bombing could not obey orders at this moment. They ran around in panic and became a living target for Hua Rong's archers.
An explosion was also heard in the direction of Liaoyang Mansion, and a large army immediately rushed out to prepare for support.
"withdraw!"
Seeing that all the baggage and equipment had been destroyed, Lu Zhishen immediately called for everyone to retreat. At this time, the enemy was already hiding behind the overturned trebuchet and carriage. With the bunker, it was difficult to attack by force.
Watching the enemy retreat, and then looking at the convoy in a mess.
"This...how do I explain it to the Fourth Prince!"
Ye Lu's eyes were dull. He was ordered to come back with equipment to kill the enemy, but now the convoy was attacked and all the equipment and baggage were lost.
"If you can't bring the equipment, then bring the soldiers and horses!"
Ye Lu was furious. There were still 50,000 troops in Liaoyang Mansion. He took them all away. Another 50,000 people would be enough to fill up Chenzhou City.
After making up his mind, Ye Lu rode towards Liaoyang Mansion again.
But Lu Zhishen didn't care about this, and led the army all the way to Chenzhou. His mission had been completed, and now he needed Sun Lei to join him.
"The next step is to leave!"
Lu Zhishen looked at the full moon in the sky and murmured, Liaodong is the territory of the Jurchens after all, and they can be suppressed by surprise attacks for a while, but it is not a long-term solution. (End of chapter)
