Chapter 188 Decisive Battle against Pingnan (6) (2)
Chapter 188: Decisive battle against South (Sixth) (2)
"good."
Zhao Dongting nodded in praise and raised his eyebrows at Yue Peng.
Yue Peng's face looked a little embarrassed.
This is the difference between Su Quandang and him. Yue Peng is what Zhao Dongting ordered to do, and Su Quandang will do it more comprehensively.
Zhao Dongting was determined to train Yue Peng to become a general like Su Quandang. After all, he was the first to follow Zhao Dongting. He had to rely more on me to fight. Even if he rushed towards Yue Peng like this, he could often achieve the effect of making the enemy scared, but if Yue Peng had any accidents, his soldiers would inevitably have a sharp drop in morale.
"Learn more from General Su in the future."
Zhao Dongting pointed out the matter carefully and looked at Dongheli, "Mr. Donghe, the soldiers patrolling in the city must not be slackened, in case there is still an undiscovered Yuan army passage. The Yuan army will attack the city and it is very likely that the two-pronged approach will be taken. The soldiers block the enemy's troops at the top of the city, so there will definitely be no chaos in the city."
"yes!"
He bowed and accepted the order.
Zhao Dongting nodded, not knowing what to order, so he said, "Then everyone, let's prepare!"
The generals left in a hurry.
There is no fixed number in war, and what can be done is to do your best to prepare for all emergencies.
Undoubtedly, the Song army is ready now.
A few dozen minutes later, the horn outside the city was high, and the Yuan army slowly came towards Pingnan County.
The front row was the famous Hui Hui cannons of the Yuan army, with hundreds of them. There were countless ladders, siege cars and other siege equipment in the middle.
In the army, except for those generals, the rest of the soldiers were walking. Dozens of military formations lined up, probably as many as 60,000 to 70,000.
They slowly advanced hundreds of meters, and then stopped around 600 meters outside the city.
The commanders of the army galloped in front of the formation, staring at the top of Pingnan City with all their eyes, and the war horses under their seats were uneasy and digging the ground with their front hooves.
The momentum of more than 100,000 people on both sides condensed, as if they were colliding strongly, causing the air to vibrate violently.
Zhao Dongting brought Le Wuchen and hundreds of Feilong soldiers to the city. When he saw this scene, he was still shocked. In fact, the war in ancient times could have such a big pomp.
On the city wall, the Song army was ready for battle. Archers, crossbowmen, stone caster, etc. all quietly watched the Yuan army formation.
Zhao Dongting didn't say anything else that made people excited, but just walked over the city wall and occasionally reached out to pat some soldiers on the shoulders. But his actions made the soldiers flattered and even their chests stood up a lot.
In this era, imperial power was supreme.
More than ten minutes later, suddenly, the drums of the Yuan army outside the city resounded.
These war drums are sewn in cowhide, with extremely loud and dull sounds, and can be transmitted for more than a few miles.
The commanders of the Yuan army in front of the formation raised the weapons in their hands almost at the same time and shouted: "Run!"
The trumpet hands in the small army formation blew the trumpet hands together, and the flag bearer in the female car waved the red flag in his hand forward. The army rushed towards the city wall.
However, what they did not expect was that the ground suddenly exploded after rushing less than a hundred meters.
The soldiers who rushed in front were blown away in an instant.
Many pits appeared on the ground.
Landmines buried by the Song army.
Almost at the same time, a loud noise suddenly sounded on the top of the city, and dozens of dark things fell into the Yuan army formation.
The commanders of the Yuan army were so angry that they gritted their teeth, but they had no choice but to shout: "Come! Crush!"
The soldiers were even more helpless and had to bite the bullet and continue rushing towards the city wall. They might survive, but they would not be killed by the military chief.
The military discipline of the Yuan army was extremely rigorous. Those who did not obey orders in the battle would be killed!
Ali Hague was in charge of the central army, watching the huge dust rising from the ground, and the soldiers under his command suffered heavy losses, but there was no sign of much anger on his face.
He was mentally prepared for the Song army's "demonic technique...".
Even now he was a little happy. The more fierce the Song army resisted at the top of the city, the more relaxed their defenses in the city might be. Just wait for the soldiers to completely open the tunnel and enter the city from the tunnel. At that time, the inside and outside will be combined, and Pingnan City will be broken.
As for the lost soldiers, what are they?
Since he led his troops to fight, he has lost countless soldiers under his command, and only more enemy troops have been killed by him.
Most generals who can achieve his level have become indifferent to the life and death of their soldiers. As long as they can win the final victory, no matter how many soldiers lose, it is appropriate. Even Ali Hague has prepared for more than half of his more than 100,000 troops under his command to be killed.
He stood with his hands on the chariot, allowing the drums to resound continuously.
Yuan army soldiers charged against landmines.
When the soldiers in the front row step on the mines, they often fall to the ground in pieces, but the soldiers behind them flock to the ground.
In this way, the formation of the Yuan army still seemed quite close.
The Huihui cannon advanced to a distance of only four hundred meters from the city wall. After stopping, the soldiers pulled the ropes hard and threw the huge stones out.
These huge stones hit the walls of Pingnan County. On the top of the city, there were gravels flying, and many Song soldiers were smashed to pieces.
Zhao Dongting stood on the top of the city, with hundreds of flying dragon soldiers in front of him and fifty grenade launchers. Among them, sixteen grenade launchers were made from Leizhou Weapons and sent to Pingnan County.
Seeing the Yuan army's stones constantly hitting the city wall, Zhao Dongting snorted coldly and shouted: "Boom their cannon carts!"
The flying dragon soldier kneeled behind the grenade launcher on one knee and quickly readjusted again.
When the shells flew out again, they focused on the Hui cannons lined up along the Yuan army.
The Hui guns were made of wooden, so they naturally could not withstand bombing. They soon lost dozens of them, which made the Yuan army commanders gritted their teeth with hatred.
Moreover, at this time, there were catapults on the top of the city, and many stones fell into the Yuan army formation.
There are countless soldiers who are losing every minute and every second.
And this is just the beginning. Everyone knows very well that only when they attack the city is the most cruel stage of the war.
In the past few minutes, the Yuan army had not yet arrived at the city wall. Under the multiple offensives of the Song army's landmines, grenade launchers, crossbows, crossbows, catapults, etc., more than half of the front army's 20,000 troops had been lost. Although the Song army suffered losses at the city wall, it was undoubtedly much smaller.
When Ali Hague saw this scene, his face darkened slightly and ordered: "Central Army attack!"
The drums of war became more intense.
More than 20,000 central troops in the Yuan army shouted and rushed towards the city wall after the front army.
The shield hand of the front army rushed to the front wall dozens of meters, raised his shield to resist the Song army's arrows, and the archers in the back row shot at the top of the city, and returned their colors.
But no matter what, the Song army was condescending and took advantage of it.
