"What the heck! Now that we have won, the fight will be over soon?"
Looking through the telescope, most of the Jin army has been completely defeated and is fleeing desperately; although a small number of cavalry are still charging, it has no impact on the overall battle situation.
In the mouth of the warehouse manager, he started yelling with such curses.
You know, after firing all the rockets, he, fully armed, led the guard company and hurried over to the Chinese army.
At that time, this guy was mentally prepared to fight and die in this final battle.
The result? As soon as I ran here, I discovered a scene where the entire Jin army was defeated; the so-called final battle of this mission, the whole process was so easy that it was ridiculous.
In fact, it was not just the warehouse manager who had such a reaction.
Other surviving netizens, such as Xu Feng, Lang Qing, Lao She, Er Pang, Feng Che, Xiu Feng, etc., felt somewhat uncomfortable after seeing the current scene.
There is a strange feeling in my heart that "I took off my pants, but the result is like this".
On the other hand, Hu Biao, a desperate commander, behaved quite calmly.
After pondering for a few seconds, he issued a series of orders in his mouth to the group of messengers waiting around him:
"I ordered all personnel of the 1st and 2nd Infantry Division of the Chinese Army to launch defensive operations on the spot to stop the charging Tiefutu and Jurchens.
I will annihilate all these stubborn people on the spot.
All the cavalry troops attacked immediately. Ignore the broken troops encountered along the way and charge straight to the gate of Yanjing City.
It would be best if we could seize a certain gate of Yanjing City, which would be considered a great achievement; if not, it doesn't matter, just try to block as many Jin people who plan to escape back to the city.
The other troops all attacked and pursued them all the way to the gates of Yanjing City until the golden men's legs became weak~"
Under Hu Biao's series of orders, while the flags of the Chinese army were waving continuously, a large number of messengers also rode horses and rushed towards the various troops on the battlefield.
It can be regarded as a double insurance in terms of passing orders.
The commanders of the 1st and 2nd Infantry Divisions immediately gave up preparations to pursue the enemy after seeing the flag order.
They began to organize their formations, load and adjust the cannons, and prepare for the impact of the famous "Iron Pagoda".
Needless to say, even though the ‘Iron Buddha Temple’ originally had 5,000 people, it now only has 500 or 600 people, which is only one-tenth of its size.
But these guys launched the charge with a death wish.
After letting go of the horse and charging forward, the man and horse were all covered in heavy armor, and they were like iron lumps rushing into the wall.
After people saw it, they were still very frightened.
It is precisely for this reason that two indigenous division commanders have grown and been promoted step by step in the New Army, from company commander, battalion commander, and regiment commander.
Facing these "Iron Buddha" troops who were planning to forcefully pass through the junction between the two divisions, the same thought came to mind.
And in his mouth, he yelled:
"Take out all the 'swarms' and arrange them~"
That's right! Although this kind of gunpowder weapon is somewhat primitive, it is quite easy to use. Even the Third Army that went to the northwest was equipped with a large number of them. There is no reason why the Northern Expedition Army does not have them here.
It's just that when faced with harassment on the road, they are useless and there is no need to use them.
So, when Wanyan Zongbi, who was determined to die, rushed to the 300 meters in front of the formation with a small number of iron pagodas.
After the "fire" command, hundreds of artillery pieces opened fire one after another within a few seconds, spraying out dense cannons.
Under such a shroud of shotguns, the iron armor on the horses of the Tiefutu people was of no use at all.
Just like a paper shell, it can be easily penetrated and broken, and in an instant, the whole body will be covered with blood.
They formed a tight charging formation, and more than 200 people were knocked down on the spot at once. Almost all the people in the seven or eight rows in front were killed.
To be honest, it was Wanyan Zongbi who rushed to the front, and he miraculously survived.
Two of the personal guards who were connected to him with iron chains were killed on the spot, and three others, including him, were hit by several shotgun blasts.
But under the influence of an almost obsessive mentality in their hearts, they still persisted in refusing to fall off the horse and continued to move forward dragging the corpses of the two guards.
However, when they continued to advance to the position two hundred steps in front of the formation, more than three hundred "swarms of rockets" were ignited one by one.
Then, there is nothing more.
You must know that each "swarm" contains 48 featherless iron arrows; if 300 were sent out at the same time, that would be tens of thousands of arrows.
The accuracy of these arrows may be a little off, but there is no need to doubt the strength carried by them.
Anyway, for the musketeers in the formation, the featherless iron arrows that flew out randomly were accompanied by the thick smoke produced by the launch.
These effects made it almost impossible to see clearly in front of my eyes, and I gradually recovered and calmed down a bit.
The musketeers who were about to open fire cursed "What the hell".
Because at this moment, there was no longer a living person in front of them. All the iron pagodas of the Jin people, whether human or horse, were filled with featherless iron arrows like feather dusters, and fell down a hundred or ten meters in front of the formation.
.
Fortunately, they still have a chance to take action later in this battle.
After about a minute at most, Wanyan Wu, the emperor who was begging to buy this golden man, rushed towards them with seven or eight thousand Jurchen cavalry.
However, under the continuous attacks of artillery, swarms of swarms, muskets, and grenades, the one closest to their formation finally fell down on the spot after being filled with unwillingness but still three or five steps away.
As for the enemy chief Wanyan Wu, he was begging for money because of the golden armor on his body and the golden sword in his hand.
At a distance of more than 200 steps, the artillerymen used more than ten artillery pieces to focus their fire, and they were almost beaten to pieces on the spot.
The infantrymen started to curse at the artillerymen for taking credit...
****
After all the cavalry led by Wanyan Zongbi and Wanyan Wu were killed in the battle, it meant that such a war that related to the ownership of the world had officially come to an end.
In the time that followed, just catching prisoners, cleaning the battlefield, and treating the wounded required Hu Biao and others to invest considerable time and energy.
However, under the ecstasy of victory, everyone in the Northern Expeditionary Army burst out with great enthusiasm and devoted themselves to related work.
With their busy work all night long, the efficiency was quite good.
Therefore, at around ten o'clock in the morning of the second day, the Northern Expedition army officially advanced to the foot of Yanjing City.
It is a pity that the cavalry of the new army was a step too slow yesterday and failed to seize a gate, allowing some infantrymen who arrived from behind to take Yanjing City down with them.
Fortunately, considering the current battlefield situation, it is not a big problem.
Although there were still 70,000 to 80,000 gold soldiers who successfully escaped back to the city yesterday, their morale and the powerful siege capabilities of the new army were still there.
Hu Biao was confident that he could stay at the imperial palace in Yanjing City at night.
In fact, Yanjing City, which was required to be captured in the third phase of the system, was far easier to obtain than Hu Biao and the others had imagined.
The troops of the two artillery divisions were lined up outside the east city wall.
There was no formal firing at that time, but with a "creak" sound, the drawbridge was lowered and the city gate was opened.
Looking over from a distance, various officials and nobles of the Jin people knelt respectfully on both sides of the city gate; that is to say, the Jin people surrendered.
At noon that day, Hu Biao and other senior officials from the Northern Expedition entered the city one after another on their war horses from Shi Renmen after the advance troops had already entered the city and controlled the situation.
This famous city in the Han Dynasty, which was originally lost in history for 400 years, returned to its true owner more than 200 years in advance.
The only pity is that a small group of Jurchens who were unwilling to fail failed before the city was broken.
All the members of the Zhao royal family, as well as civil and military officials were burned to death, and they all committed suicide. This made the great achievements of the Northern Expedition less than perfect.
For this reason, the prime ministers of the Song Dynasty, the privy envoys, and the Dukes of Qin Hu Biao and Hu Yitong were so sad after hearing the news that they fainted from tears on the spot.
But for future generations, this small situation is not worth mentioning at all.
What is important is that in this world, the brand new "History of the Song Dynasty" has this additional record:
On February 26, the second year of Maode, the pseudo-Jin Kingdom was destroyed. In the fifth year of Zhenghe of the Song Dynasty, the pseudo-Jin Kingdom was established by Wanyan Aguda. It passed through two emperors and existed for a total of fourteen years...
