Chapter 980: Falling in love with Zongze at first sight, the Supreme Emperor recommends talents to the country

Beginning with Detective Li Yuanfang, Chapter 997 of the text volume, the invincible rural regiment, the invincible chief instructor, goes to war again! "Kill!! Kill!!"

"Hold! Hold!!"

The bloody morning sun rises from the horizon, and the two military souls stir up the bright light of life in their high fighting spirit.

The attack on Shanhaiguan was extremely spectacular from the first moment of the fighting.

The sky was filled with haze, and it was the rain of arrows that was blocking the light.

After obtaining the inventory of the Liao Kingdom, the originally poor Jin people exchanged their shotguns for cannons. Arrows were no longer sparse. Every arrow was precious, and accuracy made up for the quantity.

Now, they can spend as much as they want, and there are siege engines advancing from behind, fighting a bloody battle regardless of the cost.

The most important thing is that the primitive wildness from the depths of the Jin man's body is also inspired on the battlefield.

They were cavalry when they were sprinting. They dismounted immediately when they got close. Instead of relying entirely on siege equipment, they held short blades and sharp knives in their mouths, climbed hard with both hands, and launched a strong attack from various positions on the Great Wall.

Li Kui previously commented that Wanyan Hunqi's combat effectiveness was much weaker than that of the Jinling period. This was not a lie. Compared with the elite Jurchens in their peak period, the current group of Jin troops was indeed inferior.

But after retreating, retreating, at the moment of real fighting, they still move forward bravely and fight to the death. If they face the Liao Army and Xixia Army directly, they can still kill the opponent to a rout and flow into rivers of blood.

But at this moment Wanyan Zonghan looked at the situation and his face became heavy.

Shanhaiguan in this world is just a relatively ordinary pass. It does not have the city defense system of the "Seven Cities in a Chain" and "One Thousand Miles of Great Wall" in the late Ming Dynasty. In Wanyan Aguda's judgment, even if he cannot use the name of an envoy, he can easily be deceived.

To defend the city and seize the pass at the minimum cost, dispatching five thousand elites should be more than enough.

But the current battle situation is stalemate, and it is far from going as smoothly as expected.

"Bang! Bang! Bang -"

Despite the all-round attack by the defenders, he finally pushed the wide ladders in front of the city gate and smashed them with a fierce attitude. The huge iron hook hooked the city wall when the wide ladder fell. The golden man on the ladder

He immediately howled and launched a fierce and brutal attack on the defenders at the top of the city.

"Seize the level! Seize the level!"

For a time, the Yan army in this area was killed and retreated steadily. A large number of Jin people rushed to the top of the city, shouting victory slogans and waving their slaughtering swords.

"Wait...wait...it's time!"

Shi Yong, the general of Shanhaiguan garrison, was on the watchtower. He had a panoramic view of everything. He silently counted the time and took out his trump card at the moment when the Jin people had just rushed to the Great Wall.

"Send the order! Attack the Iron Buddha!!"

On the Great Wall made of bricks and stones, horses can be raced.

This is also a major significance of the construction of the Great Wall, which allows the cavalry to gallop among the rugged mountains and coordinate with beacon towers in various places to arrive at support as quickly as possible.

Support from elsewhere has not yet arrived, but a heavily armored cavalry team suddenly appeared from the cave where soldiers were hiding, rushing towards the city head with shouts and roars.

"Death to the golden thief!!"

They brandished their specially made sharp spears, used the rapid momentum of their horse power to pounce on them like thunder, and began to sweep away.

There are not many iron pagodas, only thirty riders.

But these thirty knights charged back and forth four times like plowing the ground, and all the golden men who finally rushed to the top of the city were killed.

The troops on both sides are reversed.

The Jin people dismounted from cavalry and became infantry. They bravely climbed up the Great Wall first;

The Yan people mounted their horses from infantry to cavalry, wearing heavy armor and galloping along the city roads.

"Haha! Do you realize how powerful the Iron Buddha is?"

When the Yan army guarding the city saw this scene, they shouted excitedly, their morale soared, and they suppressed the Jin people's brave attack momentum.

Ever since, what fell into Wanyan Zonghan's eyes was that everywhere there were golden warriors climbing the Great Wall with bare hands, but there were also screaming corpses falling down everywhere.

The small area became a meat grinder, with life constantly filling in and exploding out. Especially in the core of the defense, the casualties were extremely serious, and a thick pile of corpses had accumulated under the city wall.

If the fight continues as it is now, if there are enough troops, it won't be long before the Jin people can step on the bones of their own people and board the city.

"My elite Dajin must not be wasted here..."

But this was obviously something Wanyan Zonghan couldn't accept, so he immediately ordered: "Bring Hunqi up!"

The pale-faced Wanyan was dragged over.

Wanyan Zonghan glared at him: "We failed to seize the barrier and lost all our elites. You should have been executed on the spot, but now you are given the opportunity to make meritorious deeds. The gates of Shanhai City have never been opened. How did those Zhao clan members get in?"

Wanyan Hunqi pointed to Yanshan Mountain to the north of Shanhaiguan: "The entrance and exit are through the mountain road, but there are only a few people and horses, and it is impossible for a large group to pass."

Wanyan Zonghan said: "Quickly lead a team of elites, go around to the back, and act according to the opportunity. If those Yan Ting officials who have taken over the Zhao clan want to run away, take the opportunity to attack and create opportunities for the front army!"

This request was no different from committing suicide. Regardless of success or failure, there would be no way to survive. Wanyan Hunqi couldn't help but show fear.

Wanyan Zonghan stared at him coldly: "Have you forgotten the oath you made to follow His Majesty?"

"Invincible! Great fortune for thousands of years!"

Wanyan regained consciousness, gritted his teeth and responded: "As you command!"

His armor was chopped into pieces by Li Kui with an axe, and he was already seriously injured. Every time he took a step, he felt severe pain in his chest and abdomen, but he still held it back and led the team towards the mountain road.

"Put up your shield! Beat the drum to build momentum!"

Wanyan Zonghan once again ordered the vanguard troops to set up shields, and the two sides entered a stalemate, and then ordered the rear to beat the drums, making a thumping sound.

The sound of war drums is dense but not chaotic, and the shouts of killing are loud but not discouraged.

Listening to the fighting and roaring of the soldiers at the front, the officials of the Ministry of Rites in the pass turned pale. After whispering, they all came to Liang Shijie: "Secretary Minister, the Zhao clan has been successfully retrieved..."

Liang Shijie asked: "How many people came in?"

The official reported: "Twenty-eight people, the last emperor's wife and legitimate son are all here."

Liang Shijie breathed a sigh of relief, pulled out the teeth from the golden man's tiger's mouth, and brought these people back forcefully to prevent them from dying in the barbaric environment. Yan Ting was really the most benevolent and righteous man.

This trip was complete.

Of course, a safe return would be the real success. At this time, the official of the Ministry of Rites whispered: "Secretary Minister, the Jin people are cruel and I'm afraid they won't let it go. We'd better escort the Zhao family back to Beijing first and then make plans..."

Liang Shijie knew that they were afraid that Shanhaiguan would be difficult to defend under the main attack of the Jin army, and wanted to use the excuse of escorting the Zhao clan to leave first.

To be fair, he was also afraid that the city gate would be breached and he would die here. After thinking about it, he looked at Zhang Jun who was standing not far away: "Zhang Zhuang, come here... Do you think it is safe to return to Beijing at this time?"

Facing a group of senior officials, Zhang Jun did not dare to interrupt at will. When he got the opportunity, he immediately said: "Let me tell the minister that the gold thieves are fierce, or there may be a small group of people entering the country through a detour. Once we leave Shanhaiguan, it may not be safe. We should guard the place.

This is the best strategy..."

At the end, he lowered his voice: "Even if something unexpected happens, it is safer to run away from the city road before the barrier is broken than to leave the barrier rashly!"

Liang Shijie's eyes lit up, he nodded approvingly, and said loudly to his officials: "Back then, the Supreme Emperor, Prime Minister, and Gao Shangshu were guarding Daming Mansion. There were 200,000 Liao troops outside. They were surrounded on all sides and attacked day and night. They were still unafraid.

Now there are only tens of thousands of gold thieves outside the pass, how can we retreat out of timidity? Hold on!!"

The officials reluctantly accepted the order: "The minister is wise!"

Liang Shijie realized the sense of responsibility that comes with being on his own and was quite satisfied with his performance. However, when he looked at the beacon tower being lit and the smoke pillars rising to the sky and the ground, echoing the beacons rising in the distance, his thighs trembled slightly again:

"This may be a battle in which the Jin people devoted all their national strength!"

"When the Jin army comes, it will definitely be a national war!"

In the Yanjing Imperial Palace, Li Yan stood up from the dragon chair, and his deafening voice echoed in the hall.

This meeting of important ministers in the Mingde Palace was very urgent. The supreme leader did not make any preparations and directly analyzed the enemy and ourselves:

"The Jin people had just plundered Xixia, and they used it to cover up the mobilization of troops and horses, and directly sent troops to Yan. There are three reasons."

"First, the remnants of the former Goryeo surrendered, and our navy recovered the kingdom and is still in the process of reorganizing it, so it will be unable to advance into Liaodong in a short period of time;"

"Secondly, artillery has just been put into actual combat and has not yet been widely armed;"

"Third, the cavalry policy has initially achieved results and cannot support large-scale cavalry training."

"There were arguments in the court before. They all thought that the Kingdom of Jin would go dormant after repeated setbacks. It seems that you have underestimated the King of Jin!"

The ministers bowed down and said: "I am stupid and have been deceived by the enemy. I hope your Majesty will punish you!"

Li Yan raised his hand: "It is impossible to predict everything without knowing it. I am not completely sure that Wanyan Aguda will attack immediately, so I just ordered all the armies to prepare for war and be on strict guard."

"Facts have proved that this Jin Jun has both a military vision and a resolute execution ability, which enabled him to trigger this national war. He is worthy of being the founding king!"

"Since we are fighting for the country, all civil and military officials in the dynasty are all soldiers... The prince is going to court!"

After the words fell, the hastily prepared prince, wearing a small python robe, came to the palace with a calm demeanor and saluted: "My son, I pay my respects to my father!"

Li Yan looked at the tiger-headed prince and smiled slightly. This man was of great use at this time: "I ordered the prince to supervise the country, and the right minister Cai Jing to assist the government and take charge of the rear affairs."

The prince said in a childish voice: "My son, I accept the decree!"

Cai Jing immediately bowed down and said: "I accept the decree!"

"As the Grand Governor of the Governor's Mansion, I will be the general commander of the war effort and will personally visit the front lines!"

Li Yan had been serving as the first-level governor since the time of King Yan. At this time, he did not allow the ministers to exhort him at all, and strode out of the palace: "Take my spear and my dragon colt! You also prepare yourselves.

The gathering outside the city is just like in the days of the rural corps!"

"yes!!"

The left governor Lu Junyi, the right governor Hua Rong, the Tongzhi governor Shi Qian, the imperial censor Gongsun Zhao, the left prime minister Zhu Wu, the right prime minister Wu Yong, the military minister Ding Run, the household minister Chai Jin...

All the high-ranking officials who originally only worked in the imperial court in the capital...

They were also the heroes who followed him to form rural soldiers, pacified the world, and established the new dynasty...

Everyone obeys orders.

The invincible township corps, the invincible chief coach, go to war again!
