The man who led Hezha Meng'an and fought Wang De on foot in the gap was Wanyan Zonghan's powerful general Hunqi.
This person has always been responsible for arduous tasks. For example, a few years ago the Jin Kingdom attacked Yanyun, and the Liao soldiers were stationed at Gubeikou for defense.
At that time, Po Luhuo and Hunqi each led two hundred horses as the vanguard.
Hunqi served as the main attacker and charged forward with only thirty cavalry, chasing the Liao cavalry all the way into the valley.
There were tens of thousands of Liao infantry and cavalry in the valley. After a hard battle, only five cavalry were killed. Although they were forced to withdraw from the valley, they blocked the entrance of the valley. The tens of thousands of Liao troops did not dare to pursue them, and were driven in by the follow-up troops.
The main force of the Jin army was completely defeated.
Wanyan Hunqi was nearly 1.8 meters tall, with broad shoulders and a round waist. He was tall and strong. Not only was he wearing heavy armor, but he also carried a wrought iron rod in his hand. He had already killed and injured seven Ming Army Yaksha camp warriors.
"drink!"
Wanyan Hundui swung out his stick again, and Cao Wu, the deputy general of Yaksha camp, suddenly bumped into him.
Cao Wu held up his shield with a bent arm and hit Hun Qi's left arm hard from the side. The two of them fell to the ground one after another, and fell into the depression between two large walls.
Cao Wu pressed down on Hundi, held the shield in his left hand and pressed Hundi's chest, supporting his upper body in an attempt to ride and swing the hammer.
Just as Cao Wu was riding, Hunqi rolled violently. Cao Wu couldn't sit still and fell over, subconsciously lying on Hunqi again. In the following time, no matter how Hunqi rolled, Cao Wu adjusted his posture.
Suppress it firmly.
Soldiers from the two armies nearby came to help, and soon they started fighting.
Wang De charged in the middle of the gap, blocking with a shield with his left arm, and then attacking with his mace with his right hand. He repeated these two moves, but he always achieved results. No matter how high Hezha Meng'an's defense was, he was hit several times by the mace.
He will also be seriously injured.
Seeing that Wang De was about to break through in the middle, Wanyan Zonghan sent an order: "Let Ba Lisu go up personally!"
Ba Lisu is Yin Shuke's younger brother and a powerful Jin soldier.
None of the more than a thousand Hezha Mengan who participated in the infantry battle rushed forward, and there were only 400 people left in the rear as a reserve team. As soon as Ba Lisu led the reserve team, the Ming army lookouts on Lu Gong's upper level immediately stretched out their hands.
Flags were waved wildly.
Only fifty strong men wearing medium-sized armor were seen, with burning match ropes wrapped around their waists.
Behind each strong man, there is a group of soldiers, all of whom are carrying a basket of thunder.
This kind of thunderbolt is slightly smaller in size, weighing about two and a half kilograms each, and is equipped with a wooden handle for easy holding.
The grenadiers came to the back row of the battlefield. Because their sight was blocked, they could not clearly see the situation ahead. They all turned to stare at the signal flag of Lu Gong's car. When the signal flag was waved again, the grenadiers immediately lit the fuse and threw each one with all their strength.
Shocking thunder.
Ba Lisu led the Sibaihe Zhamengan reserve team and slowly moved forward, waiting to support the friendly forces, when he suddenly saw many unknown objects flying from the front.
A thunderbolt even hit Ba Lisu's shoulder, then bounced off and rolled on the ground.
Although Ba Lisu was very curious, he didn't take it seriously and continued to lead the team forward.
"Boom boom boom boom!"
Of the fifty thunderbolts, except for two that accidentally went out, the remaining forty-eight exploded one after another.
These thunderbolts are less powerful, but many of their explosive armor fragments can pierce heavy armor. What is even more terrifying is that they explode on the ground. If a Hezha Meng'an is close to the thunderbolt, even if his legs are not blown away immediately,
He was also injured in the blast and suffered fractures and lost mobility.
The tibia of my left leg was fractured when I pulled it out, and several shrapnels were inserted into both legs.
This fierce general from the Jin Kingdom was wearing heavy armor, and he couldn't support himself and fell to the ground on the spot. Just as he was struggling to get up, fifty more thunderbolts flew over.
"Run!"
Hezha Meng'an, who was still able to move, felt as if he had seen a ghost at this moment, and fled from the place where he was, just to stay as far away from Zhentian Lei as possible.
Even among the two rounds of bombs dropped, a few thunderbolts were not thrown hard enough and fell among the spearmen of the Jin soldiers who were fighting.
The soldiers' backpacks had already been put down, and when the grenadiers finished throwing the second batch, the soldiers immediately handed over the third one.
The grenadiers took the thunderbolts, quickly ignited the match ropes around their waists, and threw them out one after another.
Si Baihe Zha Meng'an's reserve team, wearing heavy armor, could not run fast in the first place, and they were blown away and lost their organization. They scrambled to escape randomly. When the third wave of sky-shaking thunder was thrown, the survivors were already screaming in fright.
He even dropped his weapons and ran away with all his strength.
The first wave of blasts broke the calf of Tuali Su, and the second wave only suffered shrapnel attacks.
He actually endured the severe pain, stood up with great difficulty, and limped forward.
At this moment, a third wave of sky-shaking thunder flew over, and two landed near him at the same time.
"Boom boom boom boom!"
This time I finally couldn't stand up. Both of Lisu's legs were shattered by the shock. There were more than 20 pieces of shrapnel stuck in various parts of his chest, abdomen, arms, legs. Some were blocked by the armor and could not penetrate deep into the flesh, while others were not.
It penetrates deep enough through the gap to reach the bone.
Wanyan Zonghan stood at a high place and observed the battlefield, and was dumbfounded at this moment.
"Don't retreat, go ahead and fill the gap!" Wanyan Zonghan didn't know how to deal with the thunder. He only knew that if the reserve team didn't go up, the Ming army would inevitably rush into the city through the gap.
Just as Wanyan Zonghan gave the order, the fourth wave of sky-shaking thunder came flying again.
Those who could escape had already run away. There was not a single golden soldier who could stand more than ten steps away from the explosion. Being killed on the spot was considered lucky. The real unlucky ones were those who suffered four explosions but were only injured and not unconscious.
of.
The successive explosions and wailing sounds behind them frightened the golden soldiers who were fighting.
There was also a reserve team of a thousand gold soldiers, who were ordered to come forward to support.
Together with Zamengan, they were killed and wounded and fled. Their morale was extremely low and they could only press forward.
"Boom boom boom boom!"
The fifth wave of sky-shaking thunder was thrown. After encountering the explosion, the golden soldier quickly fled the battlefield.
What Wanyan Zonghan can do now is to let the Jin soldiers on both sides of the gap stand on the wall that has not yet collapsed and shoot arrows at the Ming soldiers in the back row.
And, point at the grenadiers and shoot!
But the Ming army musketeers on Lu's bus kept firing at the archers at the top of the city.
The Jin army reserve force was repulsed by Zhentian Lei, but the Ming army reserve force continued to invest, and even had time to pull back the wounded soldiers.
Under this ebb and flow, the balance of victory quickly tipped towards the soldiers of the Ming army.
After fighting, it even turned into two or three Ming soldiers, working together to besiege a Jin soldier.
Especially those who were fighting fiercely, and the Ming army directly pounced on them. After knocking the cans down, some people were responsible for holding them down, some were hitting their heads with blunt objects, and some were holding short blades against their necks.
He even held the short spear upside down and stabbed the eye socket with the tip of the spear through the eye hole of the visor.
Wanyan Hunchi was still rolling and fighting with Cao Wu. Both of them lost their weapons, tore each other's necks apart, and strangled each other's necks with their bare hands.
But Wanyan Hungti's soldiers were getting fewer and fewer, and Cao Wu's warriors had their hands free. When Wanyan Hungti showed his head, they smashed a bone on his helmet, and the huge impact made Hungti dizzy.
dizzy.
Cao Wu broke free from Wanyan Hung's arms and touched the weapon on the ground next to him. It was Hung's lost wrought iron rod. He was so tired that he didn't have the strength to strike. He held the iron rod with both hands and pressed it horizontally on Hung's body.
throat, and then knelt on the stick.
The Ming soldier who had hit Cao Wu on the head before was afraid of accidentally injuring Cao Wu, so he instead swung his hammer and hit Hundi's crotch.
Hungti's body gradually stopped moving, and he didn't know whether he died from the hammer exploding the egg or from suffocation caused by the iron bar pressing his throat.
"kill!"
Wang De used his mace to knock over another Hezha Mengan, and the remaining enemies in the gap finally collapsed.
They lost the support of the follow-up reserve team and suffered heavy casualties from the Ming army. Even Hezha Meng'an began to flee.
"Drumming!"
"Army attack!"
Zhang Guangdao stood on the hillside and saw clearly with a telescope, and immediately issued the order for a general attack.
In the valley two miles wide, five hundred Ming troops were seen as one team, jogging and charging towards Guancheng in an orderly manner.
Wang De and Xu Qing, with the Yaksha battalion still able to fight, took the lead in crossing the gap and entering Guancheng, followed by the Ming army infantry.
The grenadiers and musketeers of the Ming army further behind also entered the city one after another.
After the Ming army's spearmen, crossbowmen, musketeers, grenadiers and companions entered the city and stabilized their positions, they did not immediately pursue the enemy, but ran quickly to form a mixed formation.
This is a variation based on the Yuanyang Formation, used for street fighting and mountain fighting.
Wanyan Zonghan had already followed the horse path, left the city wall and arrived at the street. He quickly mobilized the Jin infantry to form formations in various streets and alleys, and even organized cavalry on the main road, intending to use the cavalry to defeat the Ming army in the narrow streets.
The two nearby horse paths and city walls were also filled with Jin infantry.
But they saw the Ming army, which had been mixed into more than ten groups, advancing in three directions: east, west and north.
The first battle broke out on the two horse paths. The Ming army's long gunners lined up and charged forward. The Ming army's crossbowmen fired forward. The musketeers fired cold guns through the gaps in the formation. The soldiers carried the backpacks and handed out thunderbolts and threw them.
The bomb soldiers lit the bombs and threw them forward.
The moment the two armies came into contact, Jin Bing was stunned.
These are all the top elites left by Aguda, and they are first-class existences in the Kingdom of Jin.
In the past, when faced with tens of thousands of Liao soldiers or Song troops, a few hundred of them dared to launch a frontal charge, and they were often able to win with fewer and larger numbers.
Now he didn't know how to fight back. He was not afraid of the arrows flying overhead, but from time to time there would be a few cold shots, and then bombs would be thrown into the crowd. When the formation was in chaos, the Ming army's spearmen rushed in again.
The two horse roads were quickly lost, and the Ming army quickly occupied the horse roads and the city wall, driving off all the Jin soldiers at the top of the city.
Then he was condescending and threw bombs into the Wengcheng from the wall, which caused the golden soldiers in Wengcheng to scream and run away. The Ming army soldiers took the opportunity to rush into Wengcheng and opened the city gate to welcome more friendly troops.
Wanyan Zonghan was so upset that he sent several groups of infantry to block the street, fled with the main force, and even sent people to burn down the granary.
Fighting in a street fight in Guancheng, and having to deal with such an enemy, it was outrageous no matter how you thought about it. Wanyan Zonghan could not find any hope of victory.
He planned to retreat to the open terrain around Xinzhou City and then concentrate his forces to fight the Ming army.
