She Song

Chapter 249 Just count the artillery and you will know
As Yuan Shili launched a driving tactic, the counterattack of Balisu entrenched in Shema Bay was ineffective, and in the end they had no choice but to move closer to the Yinshu Reliance in Bailutan.

Liu Shunren and the First Cavalry Regiment on the south bank of Shema Bay were also able to move closer to Bailutan defended by Yuan Erlang Zhao Heshou in the south.

Within one day, [-] soldiers and civilians gathered at Bailutan, including [-] officers and soldiers of a cavalry regiment equipped with serial crossbows. They became the backbone of the defense and completely blocked any possibility of Yin Shuke crossing the Juma River south.

Yin Shuke launched three various counterattacks against the Yanyun Corps, which was advancing step by step, but they were all blocked by artillery, serial crossbows and the rock-solid Zhenguo Army.

That night, the Jurchen strength finally fell below [-], a real loss of one-third.

And most of the generals knew that they were actually surrounded on three sides by the Zhenguo Army. The battle during the day showed that the future was not good, because there was almost no grain supply here.

That night, Jiang Que'er's special operations brigade finally took out the outer strongholds of the Jurchen cavalry, and adopted non-stop harassment tactics against the Jin army camp in Bailutan, forcing the [-] Jurchen soldiers to stay up all night.

The morning sun still shines on the Juma River, but the Jurchen army was forced to compress to the shore which was five miles long and less than three miles wide.

Such a dense defense is a taboo for military strategists. According to the artillery regiment leader Li Azhuang, anyone can be killed by just firing a cannon.

But Yin Shu had nothing to do. All ten outlying strongholds were taken out in one night. By daybreak, the Zhenguo Army was pressing forward step by step, and he could not order his subordinates to charge like they were risking their lives.

Ba Lisu looked at the Song army, which was waiting in full formation, with hundreds of artillery pieces, dozens of repeater crossbow vehicles, and countless more repeater crossbows. He knew that there was not much time left for them.

"Ah~ah~"

The impatient Ba Lisu had nowhere to vent his anger and could only beat the wooden pillars of the watchtower.

"What's the use of being anxious?" Yin Shuke was so disturbed by him that his tone became a little more serious.

Ba Lisu is not a fuel-efficient lamp. He pointed at Han Xiaoyao's big banner and said: "Even if you look at it all day long, can you still see a flower? If you ask me, just rush over and kill the guy named Han, and it will be over. !"

What an idiot!Yin Shu didn't have time to explain to the other party, so he just replied coldly: "No!"

Seeing the other party's disdain, Bazilisu became even more crazy. He jumped from the top of the watchtower to the ground.

Just when Ba Lisu was about to summon his men for a decisive battle with Han Xiaoyao, Yin Shuke caught Ba Lisu one step ahead.

"Yin Shuke, how dare you tie me up? What do you want to do?" Ba Lisu became even more angry.

Yin Shuke said coldly: "Jurchens have died enough!"

With just one sentence, Zha Lisu was speechless and was finally taken down by the soldiers.

Having temporarily solved Ba Lisu's nonsense, Yin Shuke secretly sighed that the next time would be even more difficult.

Fortunately, Han Xiaoyao finally decided to give Yin Shuke a chance.

"Surrender?" Yin Shuke's face suddenly turned red as blood.

The Jin Army prisoner lowered his head, not daring to look at him.

After a while, Yin Shuke asked: "What else did they say?"

The prisoner boldly said: "The King of Zhenbei said: Please ask the general to count the artillery of the Zhenguo Army and you will know the result! He also said: Three quarters past noon is the deadline."

At three quarters to noon…

When the Southerners execute prisoners!
Yin Shuke had already counted the artillery on the opposite side, there were 120 of them in total. If they fired at the same time, there would definitely be no corpses left.

Turning back and looking across the Juma River, the Zhenguo army was also in formation, without any slack.

If you are careless, you should not go south to Zhuozhou!

But Yin Shuke immediately figured out that he was just deceiving himself.

Even if they could escape back to Guizhou, wouldn't the Zhenguo Army attack Yundi?Even Jinzhou and the others were defeated, how could Yundi Jiuzhou not be taken back?

There are even such sharp weapons and troops. In time, can the 20 cavalry of the Jin Kingdom compete?

Silver skills can be used in a lifetime, and there has never been such a heavy moment. The lives of [-] Jurchens depended on his thoughts.

Staring blankly at the military faces opposite him, at the last moment, he finally said: "Raise the white flag and surrender!" When the Jurchen soldiers took off their armor and handed over their weapons, the Zhenguo officers and soldiers surrounding them gave thunderous cheers.

"We win! We win!"

The cheers came one after another. When the Jurchen soldiers were stunned, they lowered their heads one after another, and some couldn't help crying.

However, Yin Shu Ke and Ba Li Su were finally brought to Han Xiaoyao.

Yin Shuke, who was wearing single clothes, raised his hands and handed over his sword, and said in a low voice: "I, Yin Shuke, will lead my troops to surrender to the King of Zhenbei today. I hope that your army will keep its promise and treat our soldiers well!"

Han Xiaoyao, who was sitting on the horse, took the long sword with one hand, nodded and said: "On behalf of the Yanyun Management Committee, I accept the surrender of your troops! Please rest assured that the Zhenguo Army has strict discipline and always treats prisoners preferentially. Any violations of discipline will be severely punished. !”

After the surrender ceremony was over, Yin Shuke immediately walked towards the prisoners' queue, but Ba Lisu glared at Han Xiaoyao.

"What? Not convinced?" Jiang Queer asked immediately.

"You forced us with artillery, what kind of heroes do you think you are?" Balisu suppressed his resentment and vented it on Han Xiaoyao without caring about it.

Jiang Queer smiled and said: "So, you are not considered a hero if you defeat the Liao army at Hubu Dagang?"

Ba Lisu didn't go around the bend for a while, and said blankly: "We have strong soldiers and horses, so we are naturally heroes!"

Jiang Queer smiled and said: "You are strong in your proficiency with bows and horses, and we are strong in artillery and crossbows. They are both murder weapons, so there is no difference!"

Ba Lisu didn't know what to say for a moment, and was pulled into the queue of prisoners by Yin Shuke.

Han Xiaoyao shook his head, the times will not stop because of stubborn people, hot weapons will rapidly improve, and Jurchens will soon be submerged in the dust of history.

After leaving the necessary troops to guard the prisoners, Han Xiaoyao led [-] troops to march towards Pingzhou, Jingzhou. While Wanyan Zonghan was besieging Jinzhou, he divided his troops south to attack the city and pull out the stronghold, and has now entered the Jingzhou area of ​​Pingzhou.

……

Xiao Qian and Han Shizhong both had blisters at the corners of their mouths, and their faces were blackened by fireworks, but their eyes were still shining.

After two days of fighting, more than half of Jinzhou's casualties were lost, and the Jurchen losses exceeded [-]. The top of the city had become a millstone of flesh and blood, irritating the nerves of the commanders on both sides all the time.

"Old Xiao, I heard that you and Minister Zhuo saw each other right?" Han Shizhong took a sip of wine and teased Xiao Qian with a playful smile.

Xiao Qian rolled his eyes at him. This guy was the number one concubine, concubine, and diva all day long, and he didn't even shy away from Political Commissar Liang.

"Can't you live without a woman?"

Han Shizhong grabbed a handful of dried fruits, threw them into his mouth, and said while chewing: "Don't men just live for women? Without women, what is the point of living?"

Well, Xiao Qian almost choked on him. This guy's nickname "Han Po Wu" is really appropriate.

In desperation, Xiao Qian could only glance at the Jin army gathering again outside the city and said: "Then think more quickly, otherwise you will have no time to think when the golden dog comes!"

Han Shizhong said nonchalantly: "The Jurchens are all weak, and they only know how to attack hard. I finally figured it out!"

"What do you understand?"

"You haven't seen it. The one who came up on the first day was the most powerful. Yesterday was not weak, but I bet that the ones who come to attack the city later will be weaker! After one battle, their veterans will be reduced. It's not like ours to suppress the city. The national army is getting more powerful every time. Therefore, sooner or later, the Jurchens will be destroyed by our national army!"

Xiao Qian's heart moved. Although Han Shizhong was vulgar, his words were rough but his reasoning was not rough. The Zhenguo Army did become more courageous as they fought. Compared with the time when they fought against him, their combat effectiveness had improved a lot.

It seems that it is indeed impossible to build a country by ridiculing people.

If Han Xiaoyao is right, whether he is an official or a citizen, if he can always treat the Xi people equally, it would not be bad to make him emperor.

"Dang, Dang, Dang, artillery attack, anti-artillery!" The observation post at the top of the city sounded the gong.

Xiao Qian saw that the black tide was rushing towards Jinzhou again.

Go all out!
