Fighting on a battlefield with millions of people, a chaotic and disorderly battlefield, it is difficult for people to feel addicted.
Arrows are flying, swords and guns are flying, countless people with outstanding minds or bodies, who have the hope of becoming heroes, easily fall in accidents one after another. The distance between people is not large, and various accidents on the battlefield
Especially equality among them often only makes people feel their own insignificance.
of course there are exceptions.
Jurchen Meng Anwulitan has been fighting with the army for nearly thirty years.
For thirty years, he followed the rise of the Jurchens, fought all the way, and experienced victory after war.
The great victory of Chuhedian, the great victory of guarding Dagang, the attack on Beijing, the attack on Yunzhong, the destruction of the Liao Kingdom, the defeat of the Wu Dynasty...Wulitan has seen the majestic heroes of A Gu who conquered the world, and witnessed Wu Qi Buyi fighting tigers and bears.
His amazing bravery, experienced the fierce and wild battle of Wanyan Loushi, and witnessed the strategizing of Zong Han's troops...
Along the way, there have been hundreds of battles, large and small. Wulitan often served as the first general to attack the city or the enemy's front line. In theory, this is one of the troops with the highest casualties, but it seems that time has come.
With all working together, in these battles, most of the troops led by Wulitan were able to achieve some gains.
Even in some battles that were unsuccessful or suffered heavy casualties, this fierce Jurchen general never lost his life or missed a military flight. And even if the attack failed, the bravery and ferocity of the Ulitan team often failed.
It can leave a deep impression on the enemy and even cause a huge psychological shadow.
In the Jurchen Army, he is actually the same senior general as Zong Han, Xi Yin and others. The official rank in the army is only as high as Meng'an (Commander of Thousands) because Wulitan's own leadership ability only goes up to this, but he is only used to attack fortresses.
In terms of ability, he is considered by everyone to be a powerful general comparable to the God of War Lou Shi.
After fighting hundreds of battles, war has become everything in Ulitan's life. During the breaks in the war, he will also engage in other entertainment to recuperate his body and mind, but what this Jurchen warrior desires most is to lead the army with the most powerful force.
The feeling of breaking through the enemy's defense with a fierce stance and stepping onto the enemy's city wall.
Just like when Lou Shi attacked the fortified city of Puzhou, but the vanguard could not attack, Lou Shi led three warriors in armor to board the city in person. The four men killed the Wu Dynasty soldiers at the top of the city in fear, and the troops from behind swarmed up -
- Such a record is not unique among the Jurchen army.
More than 3,000 people in Chuhedian defeated the Liao army, which was said to be 100,000, and 20,000 people were guarding the Dagang.
On the strong city wall, in front of him, the enemy was killed in fear. Moments like this can make people truly feel their presence.
Moments like this can make people feel that they are really standing on the top of the world. The Jurchens are invincible and their excellence can be clearly revealed at such moments.
This allows him to plunder and enjoy everything provided by the world with confidence. For such an excellent self, isn't it a matter of course to own and enjoy everything?
The Black Flag Army is an enemy that the Jurchens have rarely encountered over the years. Lou Shi died in an accident on the battlefield, and he fell into the opponent's plan and was stolen. The opponent was indeed related to the Liao Kingdom and the Wu Dynasty.
The chickens and dogs are different, but they are also different from the bravery of Dajin - they still retain the cunning and calculation of the Wu Dynasty people.
This may be the ultimate that the weak Wu Dynasty can achieve under the threat of annihilation. Facing such an army, Ulitan, like many Jurchen generals, did not feel fear. They have been fighting for their whole lives, and now they are going to defeat them.
This group of relatively decent enemies once again proved to the whole world that the Jurchens were invincible. At this time, the forty-four-year-old Wu Litan only felt the excitement he had not seen for a long time.
If the Zhongyuan, Wu Dynasty, and even the weaklings in the eastern court who had begun to corrupt were allowed to fight, they might use many cannon fodder to defeat the opponent into a tired army. But Zong Han did not do this, and neither did Bali Su.
To do it, it is always the real elite who are responsible for attacking difficulties all the way forward, which also makes Ulitan feel satisfied. He asked Ba Lisu for the qualification and honor of climbing first, and Ba Lisu nodded, which also made him feel the glory.
and pride.
This group of people are obsessed with conspiracy and calculation, but in the end, they cannot compare to themselves in terms of true bravery. This time, the moment of defeating the opponent head-on and openly telling the world has finally arrived——
On October 22nd, before half time, Wulitan climbed onto the city wall of Huangming County, becoming the first Jurchen general to climb onto the city wall of the Chinese army in the Huangming battlefield and even in the entire Southwest Campaign.
*************
The sunshine at noon in early winter hung high in the sky as if to reveal its presence, but the light and temperature it brought could not at all suppress the murderous aura accumulated on this mountain battlefield.
In the chaotic scene of tens of thousands of civilians being massacred and running, the Jurchen army carrying ladders and wooden poles, using the cover of the crowd, approached Huangming County. As if they were worried about the casualties of civilians, the cannonballs on the city wall were still fired.
Temperance, shot after shot, tried to drive the civilians away.
The first ladder team approaching the city wall was greeted by bows, arrows, and crossbows from the city wall, but the two surrounding teams quickly pressed on. The most elite warriors in the army climbed up the ladder carried by their companions, and some people hugged them directly.
One end of a wooden pole.
"Go first——"
There were thunderous shouts from the crowd, and there were soldiers on the first four ladders and eight wooden poles, and they had already raised their heads during the charge.
It is impossible to climb the three-foot-high city wall directly, but with the help of ladders or wooden poles or bamboo poles raised during the charge, you can reach the top in the blink of an eye.
Arrows and crossbow bolts were flying in the air, artillery shells were passing over the battlefield, and the smell of blood was filling the air. Huge trebuchets were throwing stones across the sky, making a terrifying loud noise while roaring, and someone fell from the wooden pole.
Regarding this disguised charge, the people on the top of the city seemed not to notice it and did not launch an all-out effort to stop it, which made Wu Litan slightly confused.
But at this moment, it doesn't matter anymore.
"Come on -"
"Feng Yuyinzi is right in front——"
At this moment, there was only boiling blood in his heart. As he saw in the picture, the charging army was finally completely separated from the crying civilians. Bali Su in the east camp watched all this, and Pang Liujing on the west wall quietly stood there.
As they watched, the soldiers on the city wall breathed out the smell of blood.
Inside the city wall, a soldier clenched the throwing spear in his hand and gathered strength slightly. The moment the figure climbing on the ladder appeared in his field of vision, he suddenly threw the throwing spear in his hand!
The thrown spear flew over the female wall, flew over the heads of the figures below the city, and suddenly penetrated towards the soldiers on the ladder. The roar of the Jurchens below the city was suddenly like thunder, and someone on the city wall also shouted out.
"come--"
Several Jurchen soldiers jumped onto the female wall like tigers and wolves. What awaited them were swords and guns with fangs exposed. The soldiers of the Chinese Army raised their shields and pushed them up. There was a loud noise from the collision, and some people seemed to be run away.
The carriage hit him and fell backwards, vomiting blood.
At this moment, the soldiers who boarded the city were not afraid of death. They were tall and tall, and they were the most ferocious soldiers in the most ferocious army. They threw themselves on the city wall, with a bloody light in their eyes, and they wanted to rush forward, using every potential of their bodies.
The language shows fearlessness and ferocity.
But waiting for them are battlefield veterans who have the same momentum as them, but have been waiting for a long time, waiting for work!
"See—blood!"
The same shouts erupted from the city wall. The first soldiers who rushed to the city were hit head-on in the blink of an eye. Some had their heads and faces chopped off in the light of the sword, and some were cut off by long thorns.
The spear pierced the body, pierced the city wall, and even fell under the city. He was still shouting and wielding the sword. Someone was knocked down by the huge shield and fell between the cracks of the female wall. When he resisted, his hand was chopped off by the light of the sword.
Bones, the shield moved away, and the huge hammer was swung down. With a dull dull sound, his internal organs were severely shattered.
The first group of people were swallowed up by the city wall in the blink of an eye, and the second group of people climbed up the wall quickly and fiercely. Wu Litan climbed up to the front of the ladder next to him while running. He was wearing iron armor and holding an octagonal sword with sharp teeth.
Hammer, roaring like thunder!
During the fighting on the city wall, staff officer Guo Chen walked to the artillery array on one side of the city wall: "Mark their retreat! No one can be put back!"
On the trebuchet position further behind the city wall, soldiers carried the stones that had been accurately weighed and polished into the throwing bags. On the Jurchen side's battle formation, the soldiers carried bombs called Tiannu Sanhua.
In front of Ba Lisu, there were already prepared generals waiting for the order to charge. Ba Lisu looked at the city wall over there.
Wu Litan half-crouched on the advancing ladder and was already lifted high. In the blink of an eye, the front end of the ladder crossed the parapet!
"I am Wulitan, the pioneer of Daijin! Who will lead the death——"
This thunderous shout was as ferocious as Zhang Fei's shout that broke the Dangyang Bridge. It sounded on the top of the city and attracted everyone's attention. The Jurchen soldiers charging nearby had a backbone and they moved towards this side.
The moment he stepped onto the city wall, Wulitan swung his hammer with a bang, smashing the shield of a Chinese soldier in front of him until his shield cracked. He staggered away. Someone next to him was shooting with a crossbow, but several crossbow bolts bounced off the armor.
, Wu Litan laughed loudly, took a step forward and hit another hammer, and saw a burly Chinese soldier in front of him. He held up a shield with both hands and blocked the swing of the hammer with all his strength. The shield was
It was an iron-wood structure, with sawdust flying across the outer layer, but the soldier, carrying a shield, pushed forward forcefully and kicked Ulitan's armor in the lower abdomen.
"ah--"
Wu Litan took a step back, not feeling any pain at all. He turned the hammer upside down and swung it again. Before it reached the point of maximum strength, another bang was heard, and he was blocked by a Chinese soldier with an iron shield. A cold light suddenly hit him.
He came and slashed at Wulitan's armor. Wulitan was not hurt, but was kicked hard on the leg.
Wu Litan raised his legs to kick away the sword-wielding soldier, and was about to strike with the hammer in his hand. One of the two nearby Chinese soldiers holding shields leaned on the shield and bumped his arm, causing the other to swing the shield and thrust it into his throat.
When it came, Wu Litan blocked it with his fist, released the hammer with his other hand, drew his sword with his backhand, and slashed hard. This sword hit the shield again.
At this time, Ulitan faced three Chinese soldiers, two holding large iron shields, and one holding a knife had been kicked away. A Jurchen soldier who was climbing the city jumped towards here, and the one holding an iron shield on the side
The soldiers waved their shields and drew their swords to meet him.
In just a short period of time, Wu Litan fought several times with the shield-wielding Chinese soldier in front. He was so powerful that when he swung his sword or punched, the opponent could only block it with his iron shield, but every time
After blocking Wulitan's attack for the first time, the opponent also slammed into Wulitan. Wulitan was wearing an iron helmet, and the opponent could do nothing to him. For a moment, he could not do anything to the opponent. In this moment of breathing,
During the fight, there was a bang on Wulitan's left shoulder, and the sword-wielding soldier he had kicked away earlier dragged a hammer over and hit him.
"Death comes——"
Wu Litan charged with his sword, no longer paying attention to the iron shield in front of him. The soldier wielding the hammer took a step back, then moved forward and swung the hammer. There was another loud bang and hit him in the ribs, and then he flipped over.
The edge of the iron shield hit him on the knee. Wulitan took another step to the side, and the hammer whizzed against the iron helmet on his head.
"Soldiers——"
There was a buzz in his mind, the sword was swung fiercely, and then he was hit again, and then another hit. The iron helmet provided great support for his defense, but for some reason, the soldiers rushing around him never rushed.
When he came to his side, he was beaten and squeezed to the female wall. After being hit on the knee several times by an iron shield, his leg seemed to be broken. He waved a knife to resist, and the hammer hit his head again, which was stained with blood.
In the field of vision, the Jurchen soldiers who wanted to rush from both sides were chopped down and fell to the ground.
"screw you--"
"Iron turtle——"
After a shield-holding soldier knocked over the Jurchen vanguard who was trying to rescue him, he picked up the hammer that Ulitan had dropped on the ground. He swung two hammers and an iron shield at the Jurchen general huddled inside the city wall.
Smashing, it sounds like the sound of blacksmithing.
These are actually the most ferocious veterans in the Chinese army. They may not be wearing full-body iron armor, but their tactics of fighting are fierce and skillful. Every time Wu Litan swung his sword to resist, they were dodged or smashed away. They had not yet climbed into the city.
Within a minute, Wu Litan's violent shouts still seemed to be echoing in everyone's ears. He huddled on the inside of the city wall, and the iron helmet on his head was smashed flat, and his head was naturally shattered on the iron helmet.
Inside the helmet.
When the Jurchens led their troops to the city, they relied on the most determined and elite soldiers to defeat the weak and stabilize their position on the city wall for a moment to open a gap for the subsequent army. But if they faced the same elite soldiers when they climbed to the city, a few people,
More than a dozen people descended on the city one after another, forming a fighting formation without any coordination, but they could not even stand.
Ba Lisu waited and watched for a moment. Huge boulders were flying over there. Two catapults had fallen one after another in this moment, and then the third catapult disintegrated. He already had a clear understanding in his heart.
The two sides had been fighting back and forth for two or three hours before, but only five catapults on our side fell down. At the moment when the attack finally started, the catapults fell down one after another - the other side was also waiting for their own dilemma.
"Yu Xian." Ba Lisu pointed at a Han general, "Attack immediately!"
The order to charge was sounded. At this time, nearly a hundred people had been devoured on the section of the city wall where Ullitan was attacking. Their murderous intent was soaring. Only then did someone pour kerosene, dung, and rocks from the city wall.
.Seeing that the blood was enough, they were no longer prepared to wait for the people to come up. More bows and arrows began to shoot down from the city, and the ladders were smashed one after another, trying to put the attacking army below into a dilemma.
On the Jurchen position, the charge has begun. The artillery arrays at the two ends of Huangming County are also ready. Li Dong, the regiment commander in charge of the artillery, has a blazing look in his eyes: "Get ready for me. The division commander has ordered. Over there
If you want to come here, if you want to escape, then I’ll make a mess for you—"
When the charging soldiers came like a wave, the cannons on the city wall rang out, and countless flowers bloomed in the charging crowd. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of people fell into hell——
Ba Lisu was silent for a moment amid the huge noise.
The Jurchens' iron cannons could not hit the top of the city, so he then ordered to fire at the civilians on the battlefield with all their strength.
