The Prince of Song Dynasty through the special forces

The commander under Zhang Jun's tent brought a group of officers to Shao Yun's side. Under the greeting of a group of soldiers pushing their chests and beating their backs, the comatose Shao Yun finally moved.

"Ahem..." Shao Yun woke up at this time, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he said, "Take me to see your lords, Shanzhou City is in danger!" Qingshi City was built by Zhao Gou who had always believed in Wang Jun, Qingshi City still built the city privately, and recruited the refugees.So when he came, Li Yanxian repeatedly told him not to let him say that Qingshi City was in danger, but that Shanzhou City was in danger.As long as the golden soldiers in Shanzhou City were defeated by the reinforcements, even if they couldn't let the reinforcements support Qingshi City, he could go to support them himself.

The Commander hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Brother, are you..." "I am Doctor Youwu, the observation envoy of Ningzhou Jiantong, and the commander of the Left Army under the command of Lord Li of Guo Erzhou, Shao Yun. This is written by my general." letter for help."

As Shao Yun said, tremblingly, he took out a letter from his pocket and handed it over.The commander hurriedly took it and took a look. That's right, there was an official seal with complicated lines on the upper left corner of the envelope.

Putting down the letter in his hand, the commander cupped his fists and said, "General Shao, I'm going to find Mr. Quduan, the governor of Jingyuan Road, and come back!"

At this time, Qu Duan, the governor of Jingyuan Road, was drinking with his two commanders in the camp, feeling very comfortable.At this time, a guard came in outside the door, clasped his fists and said: "My lord, the commander of the Chinese army, General Liu, asked to see him, and said he has important military affairs!" Qu Duan frowned and said, "What are you doing here at this time, we are far away from the battlefield, what important military affairs can we have? "The former army commander beside him smiled: "My lord, could it be that General Liu also wanted to come for a drink, but he couldn't find an excuse to come in, so he had to lie about important military affairs?" With a wave of his hand, he said, "Bring him in." The guard responded and turned his head and walked out.

After a while, Commander Liu walked in in a hurry, and without waiting for Qu Duan to ask, he clasped his fists and said, "My lord, someone from Shanzhou City is here to ask for your help." Qu Duan was stunned, and put down the The wine cup asked: "Since Li Yanxian has been surrounded by the Wanyan Loushi's army, how did the people come out? Could it be a trick played by the golden man to deceive our army?"

Commander Liu hurriedly took out the letter Shao Yun had given him from his arms and handed it to Qu Duan, saying, "My lord, I have checked the letter, and the code on it is correct. The cards are right." Qu Duan, who was looking at the envelope carefully, nodded when he heard Shao Yun's name, and said, "The person here is Shao Yun, and he is one of Li Yanxian's three great generals with the surname Shao!"

Seeing this letter, Qu Duan couldn't help but chuckled, with a look of indifference on his face, then raised his wine glass and said: "I know, you go back and tell that Shao Yun first, and tell me to handle it." Go back and see him after you finish some things, and let him rest easy."

"My lord, the military situation is urgent..." Commander Liu was interrupted by Qu Duan before he finished speaking.Seeing him frowning, he said: "The matter here is also very urgent, you go back and wait, and go back when I am done." Commander Liu could only cup his fists and said: "Yes, the last general will go back and talk to Mr. Shao Yun. explain."

Commander Liu told the truth after seeing Shao Yun. "What, Mr. Qu has something to do and you can't get away?" Shao Yun who was resting on the bed stood up and said loudly when Commander Liu said that Qu Duan had something to do and would not be able to come back for a while.Seeing Shao Yun's anxious face, Commander Liu had no choice but to say against his will: "Yes, Master Shao Yun, our Master Qu has something to do and we can't get away for a while, so let you wait here now, and he will come back when he is done. "

Once Qingshi City is captured, Li Yanxian will not only break his promise to the trustworthy king Zhao Zhen to face each other in attack and defense.And Shanzhou City will definitely be captured.Thinking of those soldiers of the Xinwang Army who were born and died, Shanzhou Chengpaoze and his family in Shanzhou City.Shao Yun stomped anxiously.But what else can he do now that he has to ask for help from others, so he has no choice but to sit there and wait.

Two hours passed, and when Shao Yun was waiting impatiently, a guard walked in and looked at the people in the tent and said, "Which one is Master Shao Yun, Master Qu told you to go see him. "Shao Yun hurriedly got up again and said joyfully: "I am Shao Yun, Mr. Qu is back?" followed.

When he arrived at the big tent of the Chinese Army, Qu Duan was lying there reclining and taking a nap. When he heard the sound, he sat up and squinted his eyes and asked, "Is this Shao Yun who came under Li Yanxian's tent?" Shao Yun quickly cupped his fists and said, "The last general is Shao Yun." Yun, come here this time to ask your lord to send troops to rescue Shanzhou City."

"Bastard, why didn't the little commander kneel when he saw me!" Qu Duan was furious when he saw Shao Yun standing there talking to him.Smelling the smell of alcohol in the tent, Shao Yun was already a little angry. Is this the important thing of Mr. Qu?At this time, he heard others make him kneel down again, and his heart became even more angry. Coupled with the anger accumulated after waiting for two hours, his eyes would be stunned!

But when he thought of the tens of thousands of brothers in Shanzhou City, and the 2-strong Pao Ze who believed in the king's army to attack and defend, Shao Yun suppressed his volcanic anger, gritted his teeth and knelt down on the ground and said: "The last general Shao Yun sees General Qu." Qu Duan smiled coldly, refused to let him get up, sat up straight and said, "What are you looking for from me?"

Shao Yundao: "Master Qu, the golden army is besieging, Shanzhou City is in danger, and I hope you will send troops to rescue. Tens of thousands of brothers in the city are waiting for your support!" The soldiers came here just to rescue Shanzhou City in a few days, but it is said that Jin Bing dispatched [-] troops to attack various places. I have to defend various places here, and I really can’t escape. Otherwise, you can break through on your own. How does the officer respond here?"

"My lord, let alone the hundreds of miles between the two places, it is not easy to break through the siege. Besides, if the city of Shanzhou can be defended, as long as Lord Qu sends troops, we can attack the Jin army together and defeat the enemy. Please learn from me, my lord! "Shao Yun said anxiously.Seeing Shao Yun's anxious look, Qu Duan felt a burst of joy. He had long been jealous of Li Yanxian's achievements, and hated Li Yanxian's repeated victories in resisting a large number of golden soldiers and making great contributions.Even the emperor praised him.

Qu Duan said triumphantly: "Qu Duan, you and Li Yanxian have defeated the Jin Army many times, and your three generals surnamed Shao are not all highly skilled in martial arts. Isn't it easy to defeat the Jin Army?" "Master Qu, please For the sake of serving the imperial court, all the soldiers in Shanzhou City must be grateful for helping us! Even the Xinwang Qiansui who fought against the gold in the north will thank you."

But no matter how humble he was, Qu Duan refused to agree: "You will not be able to suppress me with Xin Wang Qiansui, I have already said that the Jin army is powerful, I have no troops to send out, and even if I go, it will be in vain. You go back to Shanzhou City to discuss with Li Yanxian first, and tell me that I am here to garrison and build fortifications on the spot, as long as you escape back, I will leave the rest to you."

"Master Qu..." Shao Yun was in a hurry, but Qu Duan interrupted the words as soon as he spoke: "The fact is a foregone conclusion, I have made up my mind, don't say any more! It's getting late, you step back. "Speaking, he stood up and walked back.

Shao Yun got anxious, stood up and was about to stop him, but the two guards behind Qu Duan reached out to stop him and looked at him coldly.Shao Yun paused, and if he tried to force his way in again, he would be disobeying the Shangguan.He couldn't help laughing bitterly, it's over, there is no hope for reinforcements.Thinking of this, Shao Yun didn't say much, turned around and left the big account.Seeing Shao Yun walk out dejectedly, Commander Liu couldn't help stamping his feet, turned around and followed out.

"Master Shao Yun stay!" Hearing the shout behind him, Shao Yun stopped involuntarily.Commander Liu caught up, looked at Shao Yun, and said embarrassedly: "Master Shao Yun, what happened today... Mr. Liu is really powerless, please don't blame me, Master Shao Yun!" Then he bowed to Shao Yun.

Shao Yun hurriedly supported him, and said sincerely and fearfully: "Master Liu, what are you doing? You killed my younger brother." Commander Liu obligingly gave him a salute, raised his head and said, "Brother Shao Yun, you are killing the enemy on the front line. You are all heroes, brothers, you deserve this gift. But... what are your plans now?"

Shao Yun smiled wryly: "What else can I do? There is no hope of reinforcements, and there is little hope of defeating the Jin army. The younger brother can only go back and fight side by side with the brothers to resist the Jin army. Can brother Liu borrow my younger brother's two horses?" Regarding Shao Yun's fight against the Jin army Commander Liu had heard about his deeds a long time ago, and admired him very much.Commander Liu could only salute Shao Yun again and said, "Brother Dayi, let's go, get the horse!"

Handing the reins to Shao Yun, and binding the water and some food brought by the order to the horse, Commander Liu clasped his fists and said, "Brother Shao Yun, please take care! I will secretly send a letter to Mr. Zhang Jun. Ask the old man to send troops to rescue. Don't worry, reinforcements will definitely arrive."

Zhang Jun's army is far away in the hinterland of Sichuan and Shu, very far away from Shanzhou City, and the distant water cannot quench the near thirst.But for Commander Liu's kindness, Shao Yun appreciated it.He nodded, clasped his fists and said with a smile, "Brother Liu, thank you little brother. If this little brother is lucky enough not to die, today's kindness will be repaid!" After finishing speaking, he got on his horse and went out to the camp.Commander Liu watched Shao Yun drift away, and sighed softly. The future is dangerous, and the golden soldiers are extremely powerful.I don't know if Master Zhang's reinforcements will come.

Shao Yun returned to Shanzhou City, bypassed the besieged Jin army camp, and returned to the city of Shanzhou.Seeing Shao Yun, a general in charge of guarding the city jumped up happily and shouted: "It's Mr. Shao Yun, Mr. Shao Yun is back!" The high-pitched shout immediately attracted many people. .The soldiers hurriedly sent down the basket, let Shao Yun go up, and then lifted him up the city wall.

Then Shao Long ran over, drove away the onlookers, grabbed Shao Yun's shoulder and said, "Brother, you're back!" His eyes were full of joy.

Seeing that there was a thick layer of white cloth wrapped around his neck and a circle around his forehead, Shao Yun said in surprise: "Brother, are you injured?" Shao Long laughed and said, "It's okay, let's go find General Li!" As he spoke, he grabbed Shao Yun's arm and left.

While talking, the two arrived at Li Yanxian's place. At this time, Li Yanxian was playing with a few double-tipped cannons and tiger squat cannons with hundreds of soldiers from the Firearms Battalion. When Li Yanxian saw Shao Yun approaching, he hurriedly stepped forward to support him by the shoulder and said happily: " Shao Yun, why are you back, are you not injured?" Seeing how much he cared about him, Shao Yun couldn't be happy.

Shao Yun lowered his head and said in frustration: "General, Shao Yun didn't find reinforcements. Qu Duan under Zhang Jun's tent led soldiers and horses and refused to support them. No matter how much I begged him, he would not send troops." Li Yanxian sighed, He shook his head and said, "Since there are no reinforcements, it's okay. We have defeated the Jin army many times. We have made too much contribution and have long been envied by others. Moreover, we have long been dissatisfied with the high-level officials when we fought against the Jin army with the Xin Wang army. But even if there are no reinforcements, we It can also defend Shanzhou City. I am really worried about the Qingshi City of the King Xin Army in Zhongtiao Mountain! Once the Jin Army breaks through Qingshi City, it will be difficult to defend Shanzhou City."

Shao Yun raised his head and said with a forced smile: "General, my home is where you are. Even if they don't come to rescue, we can keep our home!" How can Li Yanxian not know what he is thinking at this time, just Patted his shoulder, did not speak.

At this time Shao Yun suddenly said: "General Li, why are you playing with these things here?" Li Yanxian said: "The Jin army is coming fiercely, we must use firearms and artillery to deal with them, so I will use these firearms from the original Shanzhou City Play it out and get ready for the enemy."

The cannons of the Song Dynasty were not steel cannons invented and cast by Zhao Zhen that were hundreds of years older than this era, nor were they copper cannons.It's a small, medium, and heavy trebuchet type of thing called a cannon that can throw firearms.

Throwing various firearms with a trebuchet is the artillery of the Song, Jin, and Liao states, which is different from the characteristics of the artillery of later generations.The structure of the cannon at this time is generally based on a large wooden frame, and some have four wheels for maneuvering.

A rotatable gun shaft is placed horizontally on the gun mount, and the long rod fixed in the shaft is called the tip, and the joints are all connected by metal parts.The tip acts as a lever. The one that uses one wooden pole as the tip is called a single tip, and the one that uses multiple wooden poles tied together is called a multi-tip.

For example, the giant trebuchet of the Jin army that attacked Qingshi City was built with dozens of giant wooden poles, and it can be said to be the most powerful firearm in this era.Of course, except for the steel cannon owned by Zhao Zhen that is hundreds of years older than this era.

Now this trebuchet called a gun has a leather nest at one end of the tip to accommodate projectiles such as stone bullets.The other end is tied with a cannon cable, which is several feet long.There are several small cannons, and there are more than a hundred large cannons, and each cannon is drawn by 1 to 2 people.When projecting, one person aims at it, and the rope pullers hear the order and yank the gun rope vigorously at the same time, and swing the other end up, and the projectile in the leather nest can be thrown out by inertia.

Firearms at this time can be divided into three categories according to their performance: light, medium, and heavy.A light hand cannon requires 2 people to launch, and the projectile weighs half a catty.Medium-sized single-shoot, double-shoot, tiger squat and other guns can fire projectiles weighing several kilograms to more than 20 kilograms with a range of 200 to [-] step.The heavy-duty ones include five-shoot and seven-shoot guns, etc., which use a [-]-man cable to project heavy objects weighing tens to hundreds of kilograms, with a longer range.

As for the Jinjun's trebuchet cannon, its range was only about a kilometer.The reason why it was able to hit the city wall of Qingshi City five miles away was because it was a hilltop, and it was reached by using the principle of shooting a parabola from a high distance.And Zhao Zhen's steel-forged advanced artillery can actually shoot up to five miles away.

Li Yanxian led [-] soldiers and strong men to guard Shanzhou City, and there was not much pressure to resist the [-] Jin soldiers.On the contrary, at this time, Qingshi City was resisting the main attack of the Jin army, but the pressure was increasing.

The Jin army suffered huge losses. Up to now, more than 4000 people have been killed in the Jin army.There are also 7000 to [-] people in the Jin army who are seriously injured or disabled. In this era, being seriously injured or disabled is equivalent to stepping into the gate of hell with one leg. If [-]% of these soldiers can survive, they will be taken care of by God. .Even if he survived, he lost his fighting power.

Of the 3 troops of the Jin Army, [-] have lost their combat effectiveness, and the army under Zhao Zhen also suffered heavy losses.Regular militia infantry, patrolling cavalry, and reserve militia gathered about ten thousand people, all of whom were sent to the city wall by him on the battlefield.The beast's Golden Dragon Army, Zhao Xiaodao's Personal Guard You Army, Yang Fan's Shenlong Army, and Yan Chengfang's Silver Dragon Army also went up to the city wall and fought fiercely.

Although under the bombardment of advanced artillery, almost all the siege vehicles, trains, goose carts, sky sedan chairs, various multi-shot guns and even giant trebuchets with more than a dozen guns were blasted into pieces. The cavalry of the Golden Army who shot arrows were also blasted to pieces.However, the Jin Army, which had absolutely no advantage in siege equipment, still launched a fierce attack on Qingshi City.

In just a few days, the more than 500 militiamen of King Xin's army suffered more than 92 casualties, and the [-] Golden Dragon Army led by the fierce beasts who steadfastly defended the northern city was completely disabled.Zhao Xiaodao's Guard You Army, Yang Fan's Shenlong Army, and Yan Chengfang's Yinlong Army also lost about [-] to [-] people.This is still due to the sharpness of the firearms, otherwise, Qingshi City might have been breached by the Jin army.Special Forces Crossing: Prince Song [-]

Seeing that the Jin army was a little tired, Zhao Zhen prepared to launch a counterattack against the Jin army.That night, after he ate a few pieces of horse meat to fill his stomach like chewing wax, he summoned the full-staffed left guard troops who had not been on the battlefield, and prepared to launch a surprise attack.At this time, Di Lei shouted to the barracks where the soldiers were: "The guards and soldiers of the left army should gather quickly!" Because it was a surprise attack, they were afraid that the Jin army would find out, so they didn't blow the trumpets and drums with great fanfare.

At this time, the five thousand soldiers of the personal guard left army who had just finished eating hurried out to line up.Looking at this group of elite soldiers, Zhao Zhen looked stern, and he said, "Dile obeys the order, and put away their military badges for me!"

Di Lei couldn't help being taken aback, he didn't know what Master Qiantose meant, but seeing Zhao Zhen's gloomy expression, he didn't dare to ask any more questions, and hurriedly put away the military badge.After a while, the five thousand and eight military tokens were placed in front of Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen looked at it and said to Di Lei, "Put yours in there too, and hand it over to Li Yuxuan."

Di Lei took the order, took a few soldiers to pack up the military badges, and handed them over to Li Yuxuan and his men who were waiting here.Li Yuxuan, who was originally in charge of government affairs, is now also in charge of Qingshi City's logistics, military affairs, and war affairs.
