The first thousand five hundred and twenty-four chapters start the war
The more than 50,000 people sent by the Governor of Jiangsu greatly exceeded the expectations of Zeng Yi and others. Everyone originally estimated that he could mobilize 20,000 to 30,000 people, which was already a lot. No one wanted to fight. The Governor of Jiangsu only left
A small portion of the troops were stationed in place, while the rest were sent to exterminate the White Lotus Sect.
Fortunately, the White Lotus Sect moved forward and captured several counties under Songjiang Prefecture. In order to quickly annihilate the White Lotus Sect, the Governor of Jiangsu divided his troops into several groups as soon as they entered Songjiang Prefecture, and mobilized part of the army to annihilate those counties.
The White Lotus Sect members actually came to attack Songjiang Fucheng, with less than 40,000 troops.
When the 40,000 troops reached the halfway point, the White Lotus Sect once again released some missions, all of which were assassination missions. The corresponding high-level martial arts secrets were also released. As long as the player is strong enough and there are enough people in the Jiangsu Governor’s army to be assassinated,
If the general's position is high enough, he can redeem the complete high-level martial arts secrets of the Maoshan sect. The White Lotus Sect has even announced that whoever can bring back the head of the Governor of Jiangsu will be directly rewarded with a secret book of secrets.
Seeing that the rewards for the missions of the White Lotus Sect were so generous, the players were completely excited. Every one of them lost their minds and accepted the assassination mission regardless of their own strength. They didn't even wait for the Jiangsu Governor's men to get halfway.
, many players have already started to take action.
At first, the Governor of Jiangsu's troops neglected to take precautions, and many players were killed. Only after hundreds of people were killed did the Governor of Jiangsu react. In anger, the Governor of Jiangsu directly ordered that if anything unusual was found,
Direct bow coverage.
Jiangsu is not bad because it is in the Jiangnan region, the richest part of the empire. The 50,000 Jiangsu soldiers cannot be called elite according to the quality of the balance of power. But this army is well equipped and can be compared with the Forbidden Army. All kinds of equipment
They have everything, especially bows and arrows, almost everyone has them. It can be called a rich army.
Although the army was harassed by the players, after people stepped up their guard and piled up bows and arrows as if they were free, the players had no choice. After a large number of players died, the players chose to retreat.
In the end, the less than 40,000 horses gathered by the Governor of Jiangsu arrived at the foot of Songjiang Mansion City. As soon as they arrived at the foot of the city, a fast horse ran out of the imperial army below and came to the foot of the city. A young general on the fast horse jumped up.
Facing the people who were waiting on the city wall, he shouted: "Listen to the White Lotus rebels above, the governor of Jiangsu has arrived with his army. You don't want to die without a whole body, so you should open the city and surrender immediately. Maybe the governor is in a good mood, stay with you."
Wait for the whole corpse!"
The leader of the White Lotus Sect on the city wall was furious. He slapped the stone bricks of the city wall with his palm, smashing the stone bricks into pieces. "No one bullies me!" The leader of the White Lotus Sect looked at the imperial army under the city wall with fierce eyes.
.At this time, Zeng Yi, who was on the side, took out the dragon-snake bow, and with a swipe, the scolding young general below the city tower was shot to the ground by Zeng Yi with an arrow.
"Okay!" Everyone in the White Lotus Sect immediately burst into cheers.
Of course, the Governor of Jiangsu understood that the White Lotus Sect would not surrender just because of his threats and curse words. The reason why he sent people to do this was just to vent his feelings. His originally smooth official career had changed in just a few years.
If he becomes the governor, he can fall back to the capital. But now that he has been defeated by the White Lotus Sect, he can keep his position as governor. Thank God. How can he not be angry?
However, the governor of Jiangsu did not expect that the man he sent, who was still so far away from the city wall, was killed by an arrow. He was so frightened that he quickly mobilized a few shield-bearing soldiers to protect himself.
"Come here!" the governor of Jiangsu gave the order, and several generals immediately stepped forward, "The general is here!"
"Attack immediately. I must enter Songjiang Mansion before dark!"
"The last general takes command!"
After receiving the order, several people immediately mobilized their men and began to attack the city. The sword and shield soldiers were in front, the spearmen were behind, and the archers followed closely. They maintained their formation and moved forward slowly. Once they were within the range of the archers,
Inside, the sword and shield soldiers immediately put up their shields, and the archers behind them began to fire several rounds of volleys at the city wall.
Most of the people of the White Lotus Sect have experienced such a scene. Some timid people were so frightened by the dense rain of arrows that they peed their pants. The face of the leader of the White Lotus Sect suddenly changed and he faced the White Lotus Sect behind him.
The man shouted angrily: "What are you looking at? Order the archers to fight back!"
The White Lotus Sect is not without archers. After all, twice before and after, Zeng Yi helped the White Lotus Sect transport a large amount of equipment, including a lot of bows and arrows. Of course, in terms of number of people and archery skills, those of the White Lotus only trained a few
The Moon Archers are definitely not as good as the professional soldiers of the imperial court. However, the gap is not big, as the two sides have many contacts.
But just after the two sides exchanged shots for a few rounds, they suddenly heard two bangs in the distance. As soon as Zeng Yi heard the sounds, his expression suddenly changed, "Hiss! Catapult! The Governor of Jiangsu actually used it so damn hard
The catapults were brought."
A moment later, two huge rocks fell on the city wall, and several White Lotus cultists were smashed to pieces. People around them were stunned when they saw such a tragic scene. When they saw this situation, Zeng Yi
He sighed secretly: "The White Lotus Sect is in big trouble!"
That's not to say how powerful this catapult is. Zeng Yi is very familiar with this thing. He has seen many large and small ones. It can be said that these catapults are not actually siege equipment that mainly kills people. Its main purpose is
, or mainly damage the opponent's defenses.
However, the catapult made too much noise, and the scenes of killing and killing people were too brutal. To many novice White Lotus sect members, this was simply a weapon of the devil!
The leader of the White Lotus Sect is just a fool, so he naturally knows the impact of psychological pressure on people. As soon as he saw those stunned people, he immediately shouted: "Don't be afraid, they only have two catapults.
There won’t be many casualties, but as long as everyone pays attention, nothing will happen!”
It is a pity that the words of the leader of the White Lotus Sect have little effect. After all, the tragic situation of those people who were smashed to death has been vividly imprinted in the hearts of many people. Fortunately, there are many people in the White Lotus Sect, so few people saw those scenes.
Coupled with the counterattack by the White Lotus Sect archers, the fight with the opponent was finally quite impressive.
The initial tentative attack overwhelmed the White Lotus Sect. The Governor of Jiangsu felt good about himself and immediately ordered to continue to invest troops. After several generals received the order, they invested part of the troops again. The troops invested this time were really serious.
