The completion of Lucheng

Brother Wanyan and Meng's escape speed can be said to be very fast, but after all, horses' hooves are made of flesh and blood, and there is still a certain demand for the road surface, so the speed in the early stage is not very fast.

By the time the official road in front of Lucheng became smoother and wider, and the speed could be increased, the speed of the horses had already slowed down, while the Royal Army pursuing them behind was getting faster and faster.

This also resulted in the fact that when Zhao Huan's army approached the heavily guarded Lucheng City, the Royal Army with machine guns in front had already fired along the road and killed Wanyan Meng and others in one fell swoop.

At this time, at the corner of the Lucheng city wall, Wanyan Xiyin and Wanyan Hong were hiding behind the ear wall, watching with heavy faces as the Royal Army below began to form formations and divide their troops.

Zhao Huan's flag and the Royal Army's sun and moon flag complement each other, proving that this army is not theirs.

But the Royal Army's arrival was so fast that it was even a little weird. They also had battalion posts every five miles along the route, with dozens of people inside.

If it was really discovered that the Song army had breached Huguan, how could no one alert them? How could the people in Huguan not flee back quickly, even if only one or two of them were there?

Fortunately, they did not put their hope of defense in Huguan interception, but had already deployed fortification defenses in Lucheng for one night. This was enough to withstand the most violent attack of the Song army for a period of time, at least Wanyan Xiyin thought so.

.

"How can this Song Army's car move on its own? And how can it move so fast?"

"People in the Song Dynasty always like to study strange and cunning skills. Isn't this strange? Yesterday I saw a flying car that could fly in the air and shoot thunder. That flying car was amazing."

"I still can't believe it when I say it. Marshal Zuo has actually been captured alive. If they hadn't really wiped out all your front troops, they proved their strength.

But the people of the Song Dynasty thought that they could capture Lucheng with just a few of them? Besides, the flying chariot that can fire rockets is not there, so relying on infantry is too arrogant, right?"

"Arrogance is arrogance, but you can't underestimate the enemy. They have flying cars, but I have never seen a car that can run without a horse. Who knows if they have any power?

Speaking of which, their emperor also likes painting and does not do his job properly. Only the Song Dynasty has so many craftsmen making these instruments. I wonder if there will be an emperor who likes to be a carpenter in the future?"

Wanyan Xiyin stroked his beard and talked to Wanyan Hong next to him. Compared to Wanyan Hong's contempt, Wanyan Xiyin valued him very much, and even hid in the corner in fear.

Those who have not witnessed an air raid with their own eyes will never know the sense of despair that a precise strike hits the top of their heads. It is precisely for this reason that Wanyan Xiyin arranged the city defenses just like Huguan, allowing the soldiers to disperse and attack every corner.

Hiding upside down.

Moreover, on the city wall, the most numerous items were not artillery carts, but heavy crossbows, specially used to deal with helicopters. In Wanyan Xiyin's impression, the distance of the helicopter was within reach of the crossbow.

"Maybe?"

While thoughts were swirling, outside the city, Zhao Huan and Chen Ye got off the car together and observed the soldiers defending the city down-to-earth. The investigation pictures of Lucheng had been completed last night.

"At present, there are not many Song people in Lucheng. They are all detained by the Jin army in the north of the city. To the south of the city are the Jin army's camps and grain and grass areas. There are about 20,000 remaining soldiers.

However, according to aviation intelligence, the Jin army besieging Taiyuan is still blocking the passages on both sides of Taiyuan. It should be that they have not been affected by the deserters. It seems that the Jin army here is preparing to fight us to the death."

"Wanyan Xiyin is quite bold. I remember that there is no name for him in the history books."

"It is true that he is not very famous. He is a close confidant of Wanyan Sheng, but unlike Wanyan Zongwang, he has become a mascot here.

Let’s not talk about that, how do we fight now? Directly lay siege to the city and then attack it? Or shoot a round of rockets to feed them first? Anyway, once the Jin army here dies, the ones behind it will no longer be a threat."

Chen Ye looked at the important military town in front of him. In fact, he was not interested at all. For the Jin Army, Lucheng was a city that needed to be attacked normally and even coordinated internally and externally to win, but for the Royal Army.

It's just a round of concentrated fire. Under the hot fire, whether defending or attacking the city, casualties are not considered, but direct fire coverage.

"Well, the main elite soldiers of the Jin Army should be in the city before they have time to escape. I guess Wanyan Xiyin wants to negotiate with me again, but I won't talk to him anymore. I want their emperor to beg me in person before I give in.

Their emperor calls me daddy!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you vengeful little universe! Forget it, Wanyan Sheng brought it upon himself. He just insisted on Wanyan Aguda's covenant, but he insisted on causing trouble. But if he hadn't done it, I wouldn't have come.

.”

Chen Ye looked at the crowds of people on the city wall in the distance. When his eyesight gathered, he could vaguely see that there should be a relatively high-status Jin Army general in the city gate tower. He didn't know that Wanyan Xiyin was placed there to attract firepower.

fake persona.

The two were chatting, and the Royal Army, as ordered, was already driving motorcycles under the command of each company headquarters, marching in a circle around Lucheng.

Its speed made the Jin Army who were arranging a retreat in the back city nervous. They even had no time to return to the city before they had to face the Royal Army rushing towards them. Wanyan Xiyin, who was on the city wall, watched the movement and began to arrange people to prepare for the test.

.

However, these resistances were in vain. The Jin Army's tentative attack was met with bursts of fire from the machine guns on the sidecars, and more than a dozen motorcycles fired at the same time.

The people of the Jin army who fled back to the city were already dead as soon as they came into view. Among the elite soldiers who came out of the city, dozens of them had already arrived before they even left the city, and dozens of them were killed. None of them even went a hundred meters out of the city.

Half an hour later, when the Jin Army arranged for people to come down with the negotiation letter in a hanging basket, the two main gates and auxiliary gates of Lucheng had been closed. Across the moat stone bridge, the Royal Army had arranged two companies to station each.

The remaining four companies, the regiment-affiliated artillery company, and the reconnaissance company were each looking for containment areas to prevent the Jin army from escaping. In an instant, the entire periphery of Lucheng was quiet. The Royal Army troops were neatly using motorcycles as walls and raised their weapons.

The guns were aimed at the defenders on the city.

Faced with the Royal Army's deployment of only 400 men at each city gate, Wanyan Xiyin did not take it lightly, and did not even think of concentrating his troops to defeat them one by one.

Because he had already seen the tentative attack just now, the weapons in the hands of this group of people were too powerful. The army had just been swept to the ground as soon as they left the city, and big holes were shot in their bodies, which was terrifying.

More importantly, they couldn't even see clearly what weapons those troops were holding to fire arrows. They didn't know how the group of people attacked or how many arrows they had.

"Supervisor, the people of Song Dynasty are like children carrying coins through the market now. They are no longer as shrinking as before. They even dare to attack our city with tens of thousands of defenders with only these thousands of people.

The lower official believes that the Song people have weapons at their disposal, and several city walls in Lucheng have not been completely repaired. If the Song people are planning to attack directly, we will not be able to withstand it, so why not withdraw directly?

The Song people's troops are now scattered, with only more than 400 people in the back city. No matter how many weapons they have that can make thunder, as long as they are not sacred objects, they will not be able to kill ten thousand people, right? They will always run out of arrows, right?

Just like a bow and arrow will always run out of arrows, as long as we leave the city with all our strength, General, you will place the center army around the right, and we will all disperse to attack.

We will definitely be able to annihilate them all outside the city, and it will take a while for the Song army in the south and east and west cities to reach the north of the city, which is enough for us to leave and grab the weapons of the Song people.

When we arrive in Taiyuan, we will unite with the elite soldiers in Yin Shu's hands and rely on the three northern checkpoints to set up an ambush to kill the arrogant Song emperor and let the Song craftsmen in the army forge their weapons.

How about then snatching away their mysterious weapons, mounts, and craftsmen who made the flying cars?"

"No, no, there are only 20,000 of us, and there are only 10,000 of Yin Shu's side. The total number of troops now is less than 30,000. Counting the Song Dynasty's physical body, it is only 60,000. We can't stop it at all.

.

Moreover, there is another thing you don't know in the letter. Jin Wushu and Marshal Zuo have already said in the letter that in addition to the sky speeders, the Song people can also launch rockets, and the ground infantry can also launch rockets.

In other words, those in the front can do it, and maybe those in the back city can also do it. They didn't launch just now, maybe to paralyze us. As long as we leave the city, we will die!"

Wanyan Xiyin shook his head and denied. Those four hundred people shooting dozens of people were like killing chickens. A charge of a few hundred people could cover a certain distance at most.

According to common sense, thousands of people charging can indeed run out of ammunition like bows and arrows. This has nothing to do with vision, and is completely what strategists can subconsciously think of.

So both Wanyanhong and Wanyan Xiyin knew that with more people, they would be able to break through the small military formation of 400 people, but didn't the Song Army know that? The Song Army must have known it, so why did they arrange it like this?

The two of them had no idea that this was because there were only so many people in the Royal Army.

While they were talking, the Royal Army was ready in front of the formation, and the messenger with the gondola lowered had just run half the distance and was giving a warning to the Royal Army ahead to indicate that he was not a threat.

"Report to the chief, the envoy from the Kingdom of Jin wants to see you!"

"Um……"

"Report to the leader! The officials of the Song Dynasty! The Royal Army battalions are ready and ready to attack at any time. Please give instructions!"

Just as Zhao Huan was about to summon him, he listened to the Royal Army's report. Chen Ye turned to look at Zhao Huan and signaled that the initiative would be given to him. Zhao Huan thought for a while.

"Let him wait for a while, and the National Guard, fire two hundred rockets first, and then persuade him to surrender.

I remember you said that the artillery battery can attack the inner city, and can directly attack specific locations? And the ammunition is cheaper and more powerful than rockets?"

"Yes, howitzers are projectile ammunition. By calculating the coordinates, within a two-kilometer range, the error does not exceed a hundred meters."

"Then let's shoot 400 rounds at the Jin Army's camp area."

"Well, this time there are logistical difficulties. We didn't call for airdrop, so we only brought two basic amounts of ammunition. If you want to focus your fire, you have to wait until you reach Taiyuan and call for airdrop."

"Then two hundred!"

Chen Ye nodded and pressed the intercom. Immediately, the royal messenger who was rushing to the main position of the Royal Army, Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyanhong who was on the upper floor of Lucheng City Gate, and the Jin Army in the four directions of the city gate all

They saw a scene they would never forget.

From the positions opposite the four city gates, a row of light spots flew out in horizontal rows at the same time. Before they could count them all, all the Jin soldiers screamed and hid in various walls according to Wanyan Xiyin's instructions.

back.

The position directly in front of them directly emitted a burst of rhythmic buzzing sound, a buzzing sound appeared in the air, and a group of black dots in the sky flew towards the rear of the city at the speed of twenty rounds in groups.

Just over a second later, rumbling sounds rang out from the city walls where the city's four gates were located. Two hundred rockets, plus two hundred howitzers that smashed into the city, exploded. The sound caused the entire city to explode.

The air in Lucheng is shaking.

The moment Wanyan Xiyin watched the rocket launch, he was already jumping down the stairs of the city wall, but his speed was still too late. No matter how fast he ran, he couldn't run as fast as the rocket.

The rockets that hit the city gate tower exploded, and the sound caused his heart to stop. The city gate tower, which was blown up by three rockets in a row, split apart instantly, and pieces of bricks, stone, and earthwork flew away.

The rockets did not aim at the city towers, but basically aimed at the city walls. Big holes were blown out of the masonry walls, and many fragile places collapsed directly, causing a chain reaction.

The explosions in the inner city continued. The explosions in the south of the city made Wanyan Xiyin, who was thrown down the stairs, even paler. Every time there was an explosion, his face turned paler.

A quarter of an hour later, the sky above Lucheng was filled with smoke, and the pungent smell of gunpowder enveloped the entire city. The Jin army was building fortifications on the city wall, and all the soldiers died.

The city gates were all blown up in the direction of the four main attacking walls. Zhao Huan and Chen Ye looked at the smoke-filled city wall in the distance and nodded.

"How about it?"
