1908 Chapter majestic, high-spirited, crossing the Yalu River
Fires floated along the banks of the Yalu River, and thick smoke and flames shot up into the sky everywhere. On the one hand, various ships and warships of the Qi army came back and forth. The shouts and cheers of the soldiers who boarded the shore to fight became louder and louder.
On the other hand, it has become increasingly obvious that the Jin Army's soldiers and horses, which had gritted their teeth and organized a bloody battle to stop them, collapsed and scattered.
However, although all the Qi soldiers around him took advantage of the situation and bravely moved forward, Yelu Guobao knelt down in a pool of blood among the bones, held his brother Yelu Guozhen's body in his arms, and let out a hoarse cry of grief.
However, no matter how Yelu Guobao cried out, the pale Yelu Guozhen closed his eyes and could no longer make any movements. The blood-stained red robe of the orangutan on his body had turned into a torn piece of cloth.
The traces of knives, axes, and chisels on the gold armor with brocade borders, beads inlaid with locks, and heavy blows from all kinds of long and short blunt and sharp weapons are very obvious. The blood flowing from the waist and ribs of the lock armor has also gathered into a bright red spot.
It seems that the shot that hit Yelu Guozhen directly from the gap in the armor was a critical wound that could kill him...
Because of the hatred of the country and the family, they were eager to land and fight the Jin army's mortal enemy in a bloody battle. Although the two brothers Yelu Guobao and Yelu Guozhen were both brave enough, they were still a little overconfident. Of course, Xiao Tang would not be able to deal with some of them.
The two of them made it clear that if the trajectory of the Water Margin was followed, Yelu Guozhen was in the middle of a fight and heard the sound of golden gongs. He was about to escape, but was entangled in death and became distracted by his shooting skills, and was defeated by the original fight with him.
The indiscriminate enemy cavalry killed them with one shot... Although his horse fighting skills were excellent, his ability was greatly reduced when he was caught in an emergency due to his lack of ability to respond to battle.
Due to the shortcomings of the method, even if we use another method, we will still inevitably suffer in the battlefield...
The faces of the surrounding Khitan cavalry officers were full of grief and indignation, but when Yelu Guobao grieved, he entrusted the body of Yelu Guozhen to a few of his followers to bury it first. His eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, and he looked like a wild beast.
General roared with hatred: "I will kill as many Jurchen pigs and dogs as possible now, not only for my sake, but also for my brother, you will be buried with me!"
And because colleagues, close friends, and brothers died in the battle before their eyes, their pupils were filled with blood, their eyes were about to burst, and they wanted to kill all the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom as far as they could see, not to mention the law.
A national treasure?
After fighting for this, the Qi army has lost several generals and generals, and has suffered a certain amount of casualties. In fact, the Jin army has also been wiped out. Now the country is declining, and a large number of Jurchen and good warriors have been reduced in number.
The more casualties there were, the more troops and horses attached to other tribes were mixed among them. What’s more, in the past, those Jurchen warriors who claimed to be the most ferocious and brave and could endure endless battles saw that the ships that kept coming to the north bank of the vast Yalu River still seemed endless.
It is the hope of fighting hard and fighting to the death. Once the military morale that has been barely raised collapses, even the tough and skilled generals will suddenly feel as if their backbones have been taken away. Not only that, but also a large number of miscellaneous troops and horses abandon their helmets and armor, and look for their children.
Are you just looking for a way to escape? A large group of Jurchen defeated soldiers covered in blood have also been defeated. They even found their weapons and armors too heavy and threw away everything they could. They just wanted to escape from the battlefield as soon as possible, and they were still trying to escape while running for their lives.
Continuously let out howls of despair!
The situation gradually evolved into a one-sided massacre, and the subsequent horse and infantry troops came one after another, forming a layer-by-layer charge formation. Like sharp blades, they cut into pieces the chaotic and evasive Jin Army's defeated troops in front.
Taking advantage of the collapse and retreat of the Jin Army, like the ebb and flow of waves, Li Jun, who was stationed on the Yalu River and commanded the various naval forces to land and attack, issued successive orders in order to maximize the results of the battle. As the Jin Army deployed its defensive line on the Yalu River,
Completely defeated, the Qi Dynasty was able to continuously transport its army to the hinterland of Liaodong through waterways, and then marched north to capture Kaizhou (later Fengcheng, Dandong City, Liaoning Province), Huanzhou (later northwest of Ji'an, Jilin Province), Zhengzhou (later, Jilin Province, northwest)
Later, the Jin Kingdom (near Tonghua City, Jilin Province) and other important state capitals under the rule of Tokyo Road...

At the same time, it is located in front of Jinzhou City, where the gateway of the Western Liaoning Corridor is located.
The Qi army used sophisticated siege equipment to launch fierce bombardments at the city gates and city walls. The dense stones fired by catapults not only smashed the city head into pieces, but also forced the defenders inside the city to shrink.
No. Although a large area of the city wall has not collapsed due to bombardment, rows of bed crossbows and step crossbows have already been aimed at the city wall. As the military generals shouted orders, they were as long as javelins and as thin as forearms.
The crossbow arrows immediately rushed towards the city wall with a roar that could almost shatter people's eardrums, and they drove into the incomplete wall one after another.
Teams of crossbowmen also slowly approached, relying on long-range weapons such as divine arm bows and enemy-defeating bows to continue firing at the city head. At this time, several crossbows and catapults lined up above the head of Jinzhou City also
It has been damaged by bombardment. Even if it is fired from a high position and risks being bombarded by stone bombs, it seems that the damage effect will be very limited. Therefore, the Qi army attacking the city outside the city seems to have no scruples at all.
Instead, they just carry out suppressive and violent attacks without restraint...
The Jin army was good at attacking and attacking in the field, but it was not good at fighting such tough battles as defending a city.
Wanyan Salihe, the chief general of the Jin army who was guarding the city walls of Jinzhou, was under a mountain of pressure and was about to collapse completely under the pressure, but he knew that he was still determined not to withdraw.
After all, he was also a rising star among the Jurchen generals who was highly valued by the old emperor Aguda. What's more, with Wanyan Loushi, Wanyan Orulubu, Wanyan Nianhan, Wanyan Yinshu Ke... and many other
The famous founding generals of the country passed away one after another. Wanyan Salihe, the general who commanded the army and was now highly appreciated by the powerful officials of the Jin Dynasty, had no choice but to accept such an important responsibility and lead heavy troops to guard this transportation hub connecting North China and Northeast China.
Wanyan Salihe truly felt the pressure. However, Jinzhou's geographical location was extremely important to the Jin Kingdom. Even though several military states at the southern end of the Liaodong Peninsula had fallen, Zhemo in the south of the Yalu River would also
Facing the huge pressure of the Qi army taking advantage of the advantage of the navy to invade...if Jinzhou is lost, it will basically create a situation where the Qi Dynasty can attack or defend, and completely occupy the initiative to launch an attack on the Jin Kingdom.
Therefore, even though he was already trembling in his heart, and the tight string in his heart was already close to the edge of breaking, Wanyan Salihe still tried to remain calm and dignified as much as possible, while doing his best to stabilize the resistance of his soldiers.
While thinking about it, he thought urgently and hurriedly ordered a countermeasure to deal with the desperate situation that Jinzhou City's defense equipment was now unable to compete with the Qi army, and he was in a passive situation of being beaten. In the long run, the city was bound to be breached, and he had no choice but to take risks.
.....
However, Wanyan Salihe did not know that the Qi army outside the city took a break after launching a fierce attack that day. Among the camps outside the city that were being reorganized, there were two generals who were assigned to the first army to attack the city and led their troops to look around the city.
.The two generals who commanded the troops originally complemented each other, but each was wearing one black and one red armor that was very eye-catching.
Among the two generals, the Holy Water General Shan Tinggui, who seemed to have other ideas, was looking back and forth, and the Divine Fire General Wei Dingguo looked at the Jinzhou City Wall in front of them, where a large area of the city wall had been riddled with holes.
Suddenly he grinned and said: "According to your Majesty's order, if the Tatars are still unable to retreat, the forward slinging equipment is ready to fire firearms and is approaching the front of the city. It is expected that they can also be thrown in. Now they are thrown in."
Even in Wengcheng, the Tatars can be burned to death. If the Jin Army Tatars make a desperate move, my troops and horses will take up the formation in the past few days according to the previous deployment. Night patrols and patrols must not be neglected! And those guys are trying to
When you went out of the city to destroy the catapults in a surprise attack, listen to my orders and still burn the damn ones!"
