Chapter 1423 All are descending generals, different mentality
The brutal fighting at the gap in the city wall of Luannan County was still going on. He Chongbao and Yelv Dallibo led the remaining soldiers and horses to block the gap. However, a large number of soldiers and horses outside the city still swarmed to kill with red eyes, and everywhere under the city was full of people.
They are all soldiers attacking the city. They still use hook ropes and hook ladders to build the city wall and climb up without fear of death. There are also a large number of archers in the rear who ride their horses back and forth to shoot arrows to cover their troops in attacking the city.
.
In front of the allied army camp outside the city, there was a general who was about thirty or forty years old and was paying attention to the battle ahead. He looked majestic and brave, with a dignified appearance and a majestic body. He was wearing three layers of heavy armor to protect him for more than eight feet.
His whole body also has the aura of driving the generals with a sword hanging on his waist and commanding the army with a whip in his hand.
Seeing that the battle ahead to siege the city was becoming more and more fierce, Wu Yanguang, who was a general of the Liao army, but now defected to the Jin Kingdom and was also in charge of the troops and horses, seemed to have a look of intolerance in his eyes, and then his face became as cold as ever. He suddenly
He said in a deep voice: "Presumably the defenders' arrows and defensive equipment have been almost exhausted. Now that the gap has been opened, my son will immediately lead an army to supervise the siege of the city. We must seize the city as soon as possible and annihilate all those who are stubbornly resisting in the city.
enemy......"
At this time, Wuyan Yanshou heard his father's order and immediately said loudly: "My child has an order!" He then personally rode forward to lead a group of military horses, and went straight to Luannan County, where he was swept away by the discovery.
Next to Wu Yanguang, there was also a general dressed as a Han man standing on horseback. Seeing Wu Yanguang's expression was silent, he cursed in his heart, but he still said: "General Wu Yan, the enemy troops guarding Luannan County
We are already at the end of our rope, and even if we don't attack with all our strength, we won't be able to hold on for long. If we try to do it slowly, we won't delay the war. It will only increase casualties, so why do we need to teach my son to go to dangerous places in person?"
"If a fool has any injury, it means he is incompetent. If he can't even take down a city that is about to be conquered, even if he survives, how can he see me?"
Wu Yanguang said coldly, then looked at the Han officer beside him and said: "Zhang Canjun, I would like to ask you, Pingzhou learned that He Chongbao led the rest of his troops to Luannan County
It has been more than half a month since we occupied the city and defended it. Zhang Jiedu ordered you to send troops to seize the remaining city. It is said that the number of Liao soldiers guarding the city is meager, and they are short of men and horses. How come it has been delayed until today, but it has not been able to do so.
Take back the county seat here?"
He surrendered to the Kingdom of Jin and was granted the title of Commander-in-Chief of the Navy and Governor of Pingzhou. Zhang Dungu, the confidant and military officer under Zhang Jue's command, looked as usual. Even though Wu Yanguang meant to reprimand him, he still said calmly: "General Wu Yan, you are very special."
Because of the inability of the general to supervise the war, we even surrendered to the Jin Dynasty. However, although we have to send out troops according to the order, most of the people who need to be eliminated now are the Liao troops who refused to submit to the Jin Dynasty. In the past, you and I were under the rule of Nanjing Taoism.
In detail, the generals who were guarded by the Stability Division, the generals and soldiers under their command, and many of the military officials who were defending the city had met with Zhemo.
The general thought that although we had become ministers of the Kingdom of Jin, most of the soldiers under our command had not been here for a long time. He and the soldiers and horses he led to guard the city were also the troops of General Wuyan and General Xie.
Zhongpaoze, since they are both generals in the Liao Dynasty, they will inevitably slack off in their desire to fight to the death. If the pressure is too tight, the soldiers and horses under their command will inevitably feel sad and lose their military morale..."
"You have to quibble! Zhang Canjun, you must understand that now you and I are all ministers bestowed favors by the Kingdom of Jin, and we have long stopped eating the salary of the Liao Dynasty. So what if the ignorant rebels in the city were once colleagues in the army? What about He Chongbao?
So what if Si is also in the city? Now there is no longer the Liao Dynasty, Luannan Pingzhou, Yanyun Land and even the five capitals and prefectures are no longer the territory of the Liao Dynasty, but the military states under the rule of the Jin Kingdom! Since that Si is
They are stubborn and still want to fight against the Kingdom of Jin to the end. They are the rebel army and thieves who must kill them all!"
Before Zhang Dungu could finish his words, Wu Yanguang shouted and interrupted him, and then said: "Although the old Emperor Aguda is currently deploying heavy troops to capture the fallen king of the Liao Dynasty in one fell swoop, since he has just surrendered,
I don’t know how many tricks are staring at us behind me. Now the Song people are incompetent, so they taught me that the Jin Kingdom first took down Yanjing, and now they have occupied most of the prefecture on Nanjing Road. Pingzhou is adjacent to Zhongjing Road, and now it is alone.
With the remnants of the Liao army still resisting, wouldn't it mean that the entire Jin Dynasty would be led to believe that we are incompetent in fighting?"
You bitch slave, the Liao Dynasty treated you well, but you are so cruel and merciless. You want to take advantage of your country of Jin, and then turn around and become ungrateful!
Zhang Dungu cursed secretly in his heart, but he still looked down upon Wu Yanguang. Now that it was a foregone conclusion that the Liao Dynasty would be annexed by the Jin Kingdom, Zhang Dungu and even Zhang Jue certainly had no intention of fighting with him.
The Liao Kingdom shared weal and woe, just because Pingzhou was located in the northeastern area of Nanjing Road, and it was even closer to the Jin Kingdom, which was rapidly expanding its territory. The situation was forced, and neither Zhang Jue nor Zhang Dungu had any intention of dying for the Liao Dynasty.
Although he died for his country, he still wanted to save his life and official status, so he had no choice but to lead his troops to surrender to the Jin Kingdom.
After Zhang Jue of Pingzhou surrendered, most of the Liao army's surrendered generals, mainly Han men, were actually more inclined to submit to the Song Dynasty, which had the same bloodline.
However, the Song army, which clearly wanted to join forces with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty and vowed to take the land of Yanyun, was really too useless in the first few battles to capture Yanjing... Zhang Jue, Zhang Dungu and others thought that they would
The Song State took advantage of the situation to take over Yanjing, and the influence of its sphere of influence could also spread to the Pingzhou area. At that time, all the troops would submit to the Song court, and there would also be the support of a huge empire behind them, and they would have the confidence not to be afraid of the Jin State's instigation of troops and prosecution.
But now the Song army suffered a fierce counterattack led by the remaining famous generals from the Liao Kingdom such as Yelu Dashi and Xiao Qian. They were killed and lost their armor and armor and retreated to the Xiongzhou area in the Song Dynasty. However, the Jin cavalry went south out of Juyong Pass and swaggered at Yu
The various prefectures and counties in Nanjing were rampant... Zhang Jue, Zhang Dungu and other generals who were inclined to submit to the Song Dynasty had no choice but to tolerate it for a while longer. Now they are ready to secretly communicate with the Song Dynasty and wait.
It was the most appropriate time to rebel again and defect to the Song Dynasty.
However, Luannan County under the rule of Pingzhou was occupied by the remnants of the Liao army who fled here. Both Zhang Jue and Zhang Dungu knew very well how many troops and horses they could have on hand if they wanted to occupy Pingzhou, rebel against the Jin Kingdom and submit to the Song Dynasty.
It is not only a bargaining chip to win the Song court's promotion and generous reward, but also the capital to fight against the Jin Dynasty. The life and death of the remaining Liao army has nothing to do with me, but why should I work desperately for the Jin Dynasty?
?
Zhang Dungu had such a plan. He got Zhang Jue's instructions. Although military orders came from Yanjing, he had to send troops to conquer the remnants of the Liao army occupying Luannan. But there was no such thing.
We plan to seize the county seat as soon as possible through a life-filling attack. Otherwise, the city will probably have been breached in the first two or three rounds of siege battles, and the Liao army who was defending it will be completely wiped out. If it were not among the siege troops,
It also includes soldiers and horses from other armies of the Jin Kingdom that were transferred here from Liaodong. There are so many people and they are confused. Zhang Dungu really planned to be generous and drive the remnants of the Liao army led by He Chongbao to other places. Where do you guys like to go?
You can just run away as long as you can, but don't be an eyesore in front of me. On the contrary, it will delay our plot to defect to the Song Dynasty.
But now there happens to be another Wu Yanguang who has not long since surrendered and really regards himself as a golden dog... Zhang Dungu gnashed his teeth and secretly resented it. Although they were not subordinate to each other, no matter he was a minister of Liao back then or he is now
Regardless of whether he surrendered to the Jin Kingdom willingly or not, Wu Yanguang has always been highly valued. The Jin Kingdom was eager to pacify the Nanjing Road and sent him to lead an army and horses, making it even more inconvenient for him to do anything secretly.
In order not to make those guys suspicious, it seemed that they had no choice but to attack with force regardless of casualties, and quickly wipe out the remaining Liao army who were stubbornly resisting in the city...
Zhang Dungu was just thinking about it when he suddenly heard a strange horn sound of "Woo~~~~~~" coming from behind. When the loud horn sound clearly reached his and Wu Yanguang's ears,
, the expressions of the two people also suddenly changed.
How come these two people who were generals of the Liao Dynasty in the past could not hear that the sound of the trumpet was a signal for the Liao army to assemble and prepare to charge into battle. However, in such a cold season, the Liao army suddenly appeared in front of them.
