Chapter 57: The battle to destroy the country breaks the capital!
When Lin Nuo was a bandit in Liangshan Bo, in order to develop the village as quickly as possible, he accepted all the so-called heroes who came from all over the country and took in anyone who came. This also made the leaders of Liangshan Bo a mixed bag of good and bad, and some were even scum.
.
Lin Nuo knew very well which people could be temporarily observed and detained for later use, and which people were out-and-out scum who needed to be eliminated ruthlessly.
In the past, when the opportunity was not there, Lin Nuo held back for the time being and did not take action. But now, as the war to destroy the country begins, isn't it normal for a few leaders who are not good at martial arts to die?
Lu Junyi looked calmly as he looked at Zhou Tong, Zhang Qing and others who were beaming with joy, waving weapons, and following the servants who were attacking the city and wanted to take credit.
As the supreme commander of this army, he had obtained His Majesty’s decree long before the expedition. There are a few scumbags, and His Majesty the Emperor doesn’t want to see them again!
The army was out on an expedition. As the commander-in-chief, it was too easy to kill a few people quietly. No, as soon as he showed some intention, several people on the other side rushed to kill him.
However, looking at the leaders who were about to die on the battlefield, Lu Junyi couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Wuqing is the emperor's family. After the world is unified, shouldn't it be time for me, the first of the Five Tiger Generals, to retreat, disarm and return to the fields to rest in peace and contentment?
On one side, Lu Junyi was thinking about where he should go after the world is unified. On the other side, Lin Chong, Guan Sheng, Qin Ming and others looked at each other, each sighed and said nothing.
Everyone was not stupid. The vegetable gardener Zhang Qing, the little overlord Zhou Tong and others were dazzled by the successive victories and thought that the Liao army was vulnerable and could easily defeat the capital.
But Lin Chong and others knew very well that it was not easy to attack the capital. At the very least, it would be difficult to attack the city wall without the death of 70,000 to 80,000 servants.
After all, it is the capital city of a country. If it can be captured with a simple charge, then the Liao Kingdom will not be able to stand for hundreds of years without falling.
The siege battle began, and the army of more than 100,000 servants was divided into armies of 10,000 people. They were led by Zhou Tong, Zhang Qing and his wife, Shi En and others. Carrying long ladders and other equipment, they rushed towards the capital in a frantic manner.
go.
Shi En and others wanted to gain military honors and become generals, while those servants also wanted to gain military honors and become citizens of the Daqian Empire.
They were not stupid to follow Daqian's army all the way to the war. Most of them understood that the Liao Kingdom was over, and the world in the future would belong to the Daqian Empire.
And if you can obtain citizenship of the Daqian Empire, you will not only receive land, cattle, sheep and other daily necessities donated by the country, but you will also be able to give future generations the opportunity to study and practice martial arts.
This is a major change that has never happened since ancient times. Even if it is not for themselves, they must fight for a bright future for future generations.
It is precisely for this reason that these former defenders of the Liao Kingdom and now the servants of the Daqian Kingdom not only showed no fear in the face of the huge city wall that was more than 20 meters high, but instead had red eyes and carried long weapons.
Ladder, rushing forward excitedly.
If you can survive and get military honors, you will naturally make a lot of money, and your whole family will enjoy the blessings; even if you die, it doesn't matter. Marshal Lu has already said that those who die in battle can get the title of martyr, and their families can also get the empire.
Citizenship, wife and children will be supported by the state!
Now that there are no worries, what else can't be done?
The army of more than 100,000 servants, all equipped with armor and tenacity at this moment, stormed the capital with the most ferocious offensive. Moreover, each army of 10,000 people was only allowed to attack for one hour. If no breakthrough was achieved, they would retreat from the front line. Change to the next phalanx of ten thousand people and attack fiercely.
In this way, high-intensity pressure can be maintained on the defenders of Shangjing City from beginning to end, so that the defenders of the city have no chance to breathe. It will not take long, twelve hours of high pressure will come down, and then the elite troops will be mobilized. By launching the final siege, we can basically capture the capital of the Liao Kingdom.
The battle lasted from early morning to dusk. During this period, more than ten servant armies took turns going into battle. From beginning to end, the defenders on the city wall were not given any time to rest.
In the end, after more than half of the servant army was killed and wounded, and Zhou Tong, Zhang Qing and several other people His Majesty named who he did not want to see were all killed in battle, Lu Junyi gave an order, and the 100,000 cavalrymen who had been waiting for a long time came out in unison. He put down his spear and drew out the sword from his waist.
The next moment, 30,000 cavalrymen took the lead in dismounting, commanded by Qin Ming, Lin Chong and other five tiger generals, and took the lead in rushing towards the city wall.
As for the other nearly 70,000 cavalrymen, they bent their bows and set arrows one by one, and continued to hit the city head with rain of arrows, providing fire suppression for the charging people.
This is the first time that the defenders of Shangjing City have experienced the horror of the arrow rain attack by the elite army of the Daqian Kingdom. The arrow rain is so black and overwhelming that it can even cover the sun. Wave after wave, continuous, without giving any Time for people to breathe.
As long as you dare to show your head, your body will be pierced by dozens of arrows in an instant. The terrifying penetration can directly fix the person to the stone bricks of the city wall.
Under the continuous suppression of the rain of arrows, Lin Chong and others encountered little effective obstruction. They climbed up the long ladder with ease. They climbed to a height of more than 20 meters in just a few breaths.
Several of the Five Tiger Generals were originally top masters, and they also practiced body-building techniques such as the Yi Jin Jing. It was just that they were unable to enter the city. Now they were given the opportunity to climb the city wall and face the already exhausted Liao Kingdom. Soldiers are simply like tigers rushing into the flock of sheep. Wherever they pass, they are either killed or injured, and it is a one-sided massacre.
After clearing several open spaces at the head of the city, the subsequent Qianguo army climbed up the city wall in a steady stream, and then began to spread to both sides, methodically clearing out all the Liao troops within sight.
Lu Junyi's face was as calm as water, and he quietly stared at the battle at the city wall. After half a stick of incense, he went to the capital. The super city gate that even he, an innate master, felt could not be broken, was finally blocked by Lin Chong under the gaze of everyone. Wait for someone to open it from the inside!
"Siege the city!"
Lu Junyi suddenly raised the spear in his hand, and roared loudly while riding on his horse. The handsome flag was fluttering in the bleak and chilly autumn wind, with a majestic momentum.
"Soldiers, charge with me!"
The sobbing horns and war drums kept sounding. Yue Fei, Guan Sheng and others each wore helmets and armor, leading the way, leading more than 60,000 cavalrymen behind them, pouring out of the camp like a tide, like black sea water, in the dim light , with the vibration of roaring waves, it pressed crazily towards Shangjing City.
