Since being killed by Dong Ping and Zhang Qing together, Wanyan Xie also gave up his luck and wanted to conquer Jizhou with his strength.
He attacked for two days without success, so he used Liu Yanzong's plan to divide his troops to attack Tanzhou and control Tanzhou and Jingzhou. The people from each county plundered more than 100,000 people and forced them in front of the formation to attack the city.
The people were crying and shouting, but Li Jun was as determined as iron and personally supervised the battle. Anyone who came near the former would be shot with arrows and stoned, and he would be killed without mercy.
Within a few days, the city below Jizhou had turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
However, Jingzhou was fine. When the people of Tanzhou were plundered and marched into battle, the military morale in the city was suddenly in chaos.
Probably because most of Li Jun's troops were Han from Ji and Tan states. Tan state was like Ji state in that almost all the foreigners were killed. Those captured by the Jin state were all Han people in the north, and many of them were soldiers in the city. family.
On that day, a group of low-level officers from Tanzhou jointly requested an audience, pleading with Li Jun to send troops out of the city to rescue the people.
Li Jun naturally refused. This group of people were unwilling to accept it and called their friends privately. They encouraged each other by taking "Dong Ping to seize the head" as an example. They gathered more than 10,000 people that night, opened the city gate privately, and killed Jin to rescue people.
Xie Ye, a famous general of the time, was naturally well prepared. Suddenly, ambushes appeared, and the Tanzhou army was defeated. He even sent elite soldiers and horses to pursue after the victory.
The souls of those defeated soldiers and horses were scattered, and they ran away without thinking about their heads. The forwards of the golden soldiers were mixed among them, and they rushed straight into the city.
Fortunately, after Li Jun learned about it, he did not panic. He gritted his teeth and made a desperate move. He successively summoned half of the city's troops and gathered at the North Gate for a bloody battle.
This is a good fight, starting from the second update of Haishi, the battle will last till dawn!
The corpses of both sides formed a pile of corpses more than two feet high in the city gate, almost blocking the gate, making it impossible to enter or exit the city.
The people in the city took the opportunity to smash rolling logs, rocks, and even corpses. Seeing this, Xie Ye had no choice but to roar angrily and lead his troops to retreat temporarily.
At this time, the rising sun was rising, and its shadow spread over the city wall and shone into Jizhou.
The remaining soldiers and generals were all covered in blood, as if they had struggled out of a sea of blood. The sunlight shone on their faces, and they looked around blankly as if they had just woken up from a dream——
I saw that with the north gate as the center, there were mountains of corpses on the ground within a radius of one or two miles, and there was not enough blood flowing. Among the broken walls and ruins, the flames continued to burn, it was really like an endless hell.
Li Jun himself was among them. He had been stabbed once in the cheek and left arm. When he was exhausted, he ignored the soreness and leaned his back against the wall, sitting on the two corpses of golden soldiers stacked together. His hands were trembling slightly, and his heart was filled with worry. It means to be afraid.
It stands to reason that this battle happened suddenly, and the Jizhou army must have been poorly prepared, and its troops and horses were not as brave as the Jin soldiers. Since they had defeated him and entered the city gate, how could they fight fiercely all night and finally defeat the Jin soldiers?
Here we can see Li Jun’s ability: knowing the world, understanding people’s hearts, and daring to take responsibility!
Although this person has not read many military books, he knows that morale comes first in battle.
Once the morale collapses, even the elite will turn into mud. If the morale is high, even a small soldier will dare to fight against a general.
Therefore, he used troops that night. He first divided the soldiers and horses in the city into dozens of teams, each with about one or two thousand people. They were stationed in different places to make it difficult for them to communicate with each other. Then he personally deployed them and put them into the battlefield one after another.
Adding fuel to the fire like this is a taboo for military strategists.
But Li Jun knew the shortcomings of his troops: if he swarmed up, he might be killed by the Jin soldiers in a short while.
He simply used this fueling tactic. Every time a team came forward, his face was full of joy, and he kept saying, "The golden dog only has one breath left. If you wait for this army to come forward, you will win a complete victory."
How do those groups of troops know that their commander is treacherous? They all charged forward with full confidence. When the golden soldiers were exhausted and about to retreat, Duan Sanniang came behind with a knife and axe, holding on to the retreat. Anyone who tried to escape would be killed with heads rolling.
The number of soldiers and horses left at this time was limited, and they could not resist, so they had to cry forward and fight with the Jin people.
Li Jun relied on his ruthlessness, toughness, and clever maneuvers to forcefully use ordinary soldiers to the effect of dead soldiers. Only then did Wanyan Xie also have the advantage of seizing the city gate first, and finally died in vain. return.
But even so, dozens of teams of people have filled in, and no one knows that there is something wrong. Wouldn't they be suspicious?
However, Li Jun was cruel to others and also to himself. At this time, he simply led his troops to fill in. The Jin soldiers fought hard all night, but they were at the end of their strength. Seeing that the city gates were blocked by corpses, they had to retreat.
Not long after, Zhang Shun hurriedly came to find Li Jun. He felt relieved when he saw that Li Jun was fine. He quickly helped Li Jun up and ordered doctors to treat him. He also ordered the casualties to be counted. It was not until noon that the results were obtained.
More than 3,000 Jin soldiers' corpses were found in the city. On the Jizhou soldiers' side, 15,000 to 6,000 people were killed and nearly 10,000 were injured.
As for the number of people who were chased and killed outside the city by the Jin soldiers, I don't even know how many.
In terms of generals, the low-level generals suffered losses of two to three hundred, and even Li Jun, Zhang Qing, Zou Yuan, Lehe, and Sister Gu were all injured.
Counting Sun Xin, Zhang Shun, and Dong Ping who were injured earlier, Duan Sanniang is the only general left in the city who is still intact.
The one who made everyone sad was the one who killed the "One-horned Dragon" Zou Run.
Zou Run was ordered to guard Beicheng. Those Tanzhou troops who wanted to save their relatives were not Dong Ping, so how could they dare to invade without permission?
So I found a few team generals who could talk, and prepared wine and meat first to find Zou Run.
Zou Run was ordered to guard Beicheng. Those Tanzhou troops who wanted to save their relatives were not Dong Ping, so how could they dare to invade without permission?
So I found a few team generals who could talk, and prepared wine and meat first to find Zou Run.
The group of veterans who came with Li Jun were accustomed to being flattered in the army. Zou Run was also a rude hero, calling himself brothers when they had meat and wine. Who would have thought that these people were deliberately trying to mess with him?
He was so drunk that he went to sleep in a nearby room. The Tanzhou army opened the city gate and rushed out.
When the Jin soldiers came to attack, Zou Run was awakened by the sound of killing and shouting. When he went out and saw the Jin soldiers charging into the city, he was so shocked that he was so frightened that he was so drunk that he broke out in cold sweat. He shouted strangely: "Brother is shouting." I am guarding Beicheng, but now I am greedy and have failed. How can I have the dignity to see my brother alive? Just die, just die!"
He picked up the ax and knocked the general out, slashing seven or eight golden soldiers in a row.
Seeing his ferocity, the young marshal Xue Lihuabao who led the army rode his horse and raised his halberd to fight. Zou Run stepped forward with only a short axe. How could he be his opponent?
After barely fighting for a while, he became violent and flew headlong into the horse!
The judges should note that Zou Run, a hero, is not extravagant in terms of martial arts, but his strength is extraordinary!
How did this man get the nickname "One-horned Dragon"?
Not only was he born with a sarcoma on the back of his head, but he also bumped his head against a pine tree on a whim when he was arguing with others, breaking a big tree, so everyone admired him.
At this moment, Zou Run felt regretful that he had lost the city gate and missed his brothers' career. He jumped up and hit the horse without any strength. He only heard a click and knocked down half of the bones of the good horse.
The horse neighed sadly and fell down. Xue Li Huabao didn't expect Zou Run's strange move, so he shouted in surprise and knocked off the horse.
Zou Run was also dizzy and wanted to fight desperately. Seeing that the enemy was about to fall from his horse, he climbed up and jumped on him. He pressed his chest with his left hand and chopped off the Xueli leopard's head with an ax with his right hand.
Zhang Zhaonu, the deputy general of Xueli Huabao, was shocked when he saw that the general had been defeated. He urged his horse to come up and used the Xuanhua crescent ax to split Zou Run's head open with a click. Zou Run jumped down and killed his fellow enemy. Make a bunch.
There is a poem that proves——
The vision was born with extraordinary vitality, and it was like gathering roars to climb Yunshan Mountain.
He has a strong sense of loyalty and loyalty, and his brother's thoughts are filled with tears.
Zou Yuan then led his troops to fight. In the dark night, who knew Zou Run was dead? During the fierce battle, someone shot him in the thigh, and the soldiers carried him down.
When he heard the news of his death, he was stunned for a long time, looked back, and suddenly died.
Li Jun was waiting beside him, all panicking, but Duan Sanniang was calm in the face of danger and pinched the person to save her. Zou Yuan retched twice and cried loudly. Regardless of his injury, he stumbled and came to see him. Zou Run's remains.
The two of them have been dependent on each other since they were young, and they are called uncle and nephew. In fact, they are just like brothers. This grief is difficult to describe.
Li Jun and others followed him. When they saw the corpse, they started to mourn again. They caressed the corpse and howled. They fainted from crying several times. Finally, they turned over, looked at the wound on their head for a while, pointed and cried: "Brothers, Look, this wound must have been made by an axe. My nephew spent half his life using an axe, and now he dies under the axe. I will definitely avenge him."
Li Jun stepped forward and hugged him and said: "Don't worry, this is the blood feud of our brothers. We will avenge it all over the world. Look back and be careful. All golden dogs who use axes will kill him to avenge him."
After this battle, nearly half of the troops and horses in the city were lost. Although there were still more than 60,000 people, most of the stronger ones were lost in this battle.
In particular, many soldiers and generals from Tanzhou were increasingly dissatisfied and secretly spread the word: If these people had not come, how could our parents, wives, and I have suffered such a disaster? Since he has taken the territory but does not protect it, what is the use of me working for him?
Wanyan Xie also attacked the city and captured countless lands. He had expected that there would be a similar sound. That night, he shot countless headless arrows into the city. There was a note tied to the arrow shaft, which read: "Those who surrender out of the city will be pardoned with their families."
Li Jun was shocked when he learned about it and quickly asked someone to collect it. How could he collect it in time? The morale of the military in the city became increasingly shaken.
Li Jun discussed with Zhang Shun and others, and couldn't help but regretfully said: "When I took Jitan Province, I used cruel methods. Although the results were quick, the foundation was difficult to solidify. Now I have begun to taste the bitter consequences. No wonder Brother Wu doesn't like such easy-to-use methods." He took it and asked us to use pseudonyms, but we already knew the harm."
Dong Ping suddenly smiled and said: "Brother Li, there is no need to be depressed. Since the rise of the Jin soldiers, they have been able to defeat every attack they have made. This has its own merits. Brother Li first resisted him at Huangya Pass for half a year, and then attacked Jizhou City several times. How many people in the world can do this by using a weak force as a strong force to create a situation like this?"
Li Jun looked slightly good-looking, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "After all, I missed the big brother's trust."
Zhang Qingdao: "Although we are facing difficulties now, we are not really defeated yet. Brother, there is no need to be depressed. At worst, we will abandon Jizhou and join brother Tang Bin in Youzhou."
While he was talking, he suddenly heard a report from the primary school: "Dragon King, a group of soldiers and horses are coming from the southwest, and they are fighting with the golden dog."
Li Jun suddenly stood up and said in surprise: "Southwest direction? Could it be that Tang Bin is here?"
Before he finished speaking, another junior high school student hurried over: "Dragon King, from the southeast, there are countless warships coming up the Chaohe River, and a group of soldiers and horses are coming from the ship to fight with the Jin people."
Zhang Shun said with great joy: "A boat coming up from the Chaohe River? Meng Kang must have gone to Qingzhou to move reinforcements!"
After hearing this, Li Jun looked up to the sky and laughed. He was full of energy and said something!
There is a saying:
Qi Zhen Xiheqiang in the northwest, why not worry about Yuchi being sick? Reinforcements from two directions arrived one after another, and the whole team in Liangshan was busy.
