149. The Fall of Wuzhou (2)

Wanyan Zhang no longer issued orders, but just looked ahead.

At present, orders are useless.

The soldiers didn't have to shout, rolling stones, tincture oil, and arrows kept pouring down the city. Apart from the city gate, no one cared about the city wall next to it.

The Yuan army was full of infantry, and except for the siege chariots, they did not use any other siege weapons. There were a small number of catapults, all of which were still in the central army, and there was no sign of pushing them up at all.

They were like moths to the fire, just keep rushing towards the city gate.

In this case of no cost, the Yuan army actually pushed the siege car to the city gate in less than ten minutes after the war started.

The huge wooden hammer of the siege car hit the city gate, making a clanging sound.

The Yuan army soldiers surrounded by the siege carts gritted their teeth and pushed the wooden hammers and hit them forward one after another. The Yuan army behind them pulled their bows and returned to the Song army on the city.

The stone fell down and smashed the Yuan soldiers' heads and bloodied. However, the siege car was covered with shields, so the stone was difficult to destroy them.

But in just a few minutes, there were probably hundreds of Yuan soldiers falling down at the city gate.

Some people are constantly shot to death by arrows or stones, but there will always be people who quickly fill up the wooden hammer behind them, pulling the rope and continuing to push the wooden hammer.

There were more Yuan troops who fell to the ground after being arrowed, and there were many more scenes of corpses everywhere.

Qin Han no longer stood at the top of the city, walked to a place where arrows could not be shot in the distance, and read the military book. The noise beside him and the screams under the city seemed to be unable to stir up his heart.

In the satellite cottages on both sides, the soldiers did not shoot arrows to attack the Yuan army.

Kong Yuan did not feel something was wrong when he saw this scene. He only thought that the two Song troops in the village had to wait until the city gate was struggling before firing arrows to help.

At this time, in front of the south gate of Wuzhou City, there were finally shouts of killing. The Yuan army began to attack the water camp.

Wanyan Zhang just frowned slightly, not particularly anxious.

They inserted hidden stakes in front of the water camp, and the river channel was not wide, so the Yuan army's ship could not be deployed. It was not easy to break through the water camp.

After more than ten minutes like this, more and more Yuan army corpses under the city wall.

The soldiers who pushed the siege car were a little puzzled, because after so long, the city gate was only slightly swaying, but there was no sign of being knocked open.

Kong Yuan also frowned slightly and ordered again, "Send another five thousand people to attack the city!"

The soldiers of the order flag waved the order flags, and five more military formations in the front of the Yuan army were attacking the city gates.

Seeing this, Wanyan Zhang just laughed loudly and turned his head to look at Qin Han who was lying in the corner of the wall, with even more admiration in his eyes.

This person is really a genius.

The Yuan army did not know, but he understood that even if the Yuan army came again, it would be difficult to break the city without siege equipment.

Why?

Because Qin Han had already asked someone to seal all the city gates with bricks and stones.

In other words, behind the city gate is a brick, a brick several meters thick. The city gate is just a decoration, and behind it is a wall. How can the siege car break through?

This place that seems to be the fatal hole in Wuzhou City is actually solid. Unless the Yuan army uses the Dragon Cannon, they will never be able to break the city gate.

But does the Yuan army have a dragon cannon?

Until more than ten minutes passed, the Yuan army's corpses were stacked and thousands of them were as many as thousands. Kong Yuan finally realized something was wrong. He frowned and finally raised his hand and said, "Ming Jin to withdraw the troops!"

Without a city wall that could last for such a long time, he was sure that Song Jun must have done something at the city gate.

It is still impossible to open the city gate until now, which only means that the city gate cannot be broken. If you continue to fight, you will only lose the soldiers in vain.

There was a sound of gold in the Yuan army soon.

The soldiers pushed the siege cars backed away like a tide.

The shouts of killing gradually stopped.

Qin Han, who was in the corner, suddenly raised his head and shouted to Wanyan Zhang: "I ordered the Qinglong and White Tiger villages to shoot arrows."

Wanyan Zhang is now obedient to him. When he heard this, he quickly ordered the flag soldiers beside him.

The flag was raised and the drum sounded. Countless soldiers rushed out of the mountain villages on both sides, and they pulled their bows and shot towards the defeated Yuan army.

This caused countless losses to the Yuan army.

Apart from the scattered corpses on the road in front of Wuzhou City, bright arrow feathers were inserted everywhere.

When the Yuan army attacked the city finally ran back to the Yuan army formation and lined up again, more than half of them were lost, and there were always seven or eight thousand people.

Although Kong Yuan was mentally prepared, he was a little unhappy when he saw the loss so much. The main reason was that there was nothing wrong with the city gate. Apart from the consumption of a lot of stones and arrows of the Song army, it can be said that he had not achieved any achievements.

The scout of the former army hurried back and reported that the Wuzhou city gate could not be broken.

Kong Yuan just nodded and said, "Well, I will already know."

After saying that, he pondered for a while, then said again: "The catapult cart approaches the city with a hundred steps and attacks the city wall."

A deputy general who was staying next to him was a little confused and said, "General, he has already cast a stone car to attack the city. How can he break the city?"

Kong Yuan said lightly: "The Song army consumes our troops, so we can naturally consume their troops. If this general's expectation is not done, the Song army should have blocked the city gate. We did not bring siege equipment. If we want to break the city, we can only find a way from the water camp." His eyes looked at the water camp.

It was just that there were mountains blocking him, and he could hear the sound, but he could not see the situation in front of the water village.

In less than half a stick of incense, dozens of Yuan army's catapults were pushed about 400 meters in front of the city wall, and the stones were smashed towards the city wall.

Only a catapult can hit this distance, even a crossbow can't shoot so far.

Wanyan Zhang had no choice but to order the soldiers to fight back with a catapult. These days they have hoarded countless stones, and the city was full of them, so they were not worried about this consumption.

The atmosphere suddenly became extremely weird.

When the two armies faced each other, they only used catapults to consume each other.

The flags in the Yuan army's formation were whistled by the wind, but the army had no movement at all.

Qin Han slowly stood up from the corner of the wall and said, "I'll go to the water village to take a look."

After saying that, he left on his own.

Undoubtedly, the battle at the water village is much hotter than the city gate.

Yuan army warships lined up along the river in front of the water camp, and the nearest warship was only two hundred meters away from the water camp.

Both sides were also attacking each other with catapults, but in addition to catapults, there were many catapults. The Yuan army's crossbow arrows were tied with red firecrackers similar to fish, and they shot them all at once onto the water camp. They would make a huge noise and explode, but the power was pitiful and not as powerful as the catapult.

This is because people in this era do not understand the ratio of gunpowder, and the gunpowder they match is just loud.

In front of the Yuan army's warship were dense wooden stakes, which were exposed from the water and were extremely sharply cut. These wooden stakes blocked the Yuan army's warships. Many Yuan army embedded the ropes in the wooden stakes, shouting loudly, and pulled them up together. The wooden stakes were gradually pulled out of the water, but the speed was extremely slow.

By the time Qin Han arrived, the warship in front of the Yuan army had been smashed by a catapult cart and was about to sink.

Qin Han stood on the water camp and looked quietly for a few minutes, then suddenly turned around and looked back.

Behind him was a river that could not be seen at the end and a continuous mountain range, "Five days... it should be about the same..."

Even with his talent, he never thought that less than ten thousand soldiers could block Kong Yuan's army. It was inevitable that the city of Wuzhou was destroyed, but it was only time. Because even if the soldiers could hold on, there were not so many arrows in the city and stones could be consumed.

Until this moment, when no one was paying attention, Qin Han's eyes showed a hint of worry and no longer had such confidence.

Time slowly reaches the evening.

The Yuan army in front of the city gate never launched a large-scale attack and slowly retreated. The Yuan army warships in front of the water camp have also retreated for hundreds of meters and stopped attacking.

The soldiers of the Song army were already exhausted. Some people took this opportunity to lie on the ground and fell asleep, not even caring about the bodies next to them.

The Yuan army set up camp.

In the big tent, Kong Yuan sat in the upper head, and below were more than ten generals of the ten thousand men's level.

Kong Yuan put his right hand on the desk and supported his chin, looking a little dull, "Wuzhou City is as solid as a soup, do you have any good ideas?"

If he was given enough time, he would naturally be able to break the city, but now he could not wait, and Ali Hague in Guangxi might not be able to wait either.

All the generals were thinking.

After about a stick of incense, someone said, "General, we will send elite troops into the mountains. Is it feasible to attack the enemy?"

"Wuzhou City is surrounded by city walls, and it is difficult to move deep in the mountains. Sending some troops will probably not be able to break the city." Someone immediately touched.

This will lead: "The city gate cannot do it, but what about the water village?"

All the generals are Wei Lin.

Even Kong Yuan had a bright light emitted in his eyes and nodded slightly, "This plan may be possible. Although the mountains are steep, there are some people in our army who can walk on flat ground."

After saying that, he immediately ordered: "Go and invite all the priests in the general!"

There are good martial arts masters under Ge Lijun's tent, as well as Ali Hague, almost every army, and naturally there are also in Kong Yuan's army.

Although I still don’t understand the special forces strategy in this era, many troops have actually taken shape as special forces.
