A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 1884 Datong’s Trap

Hongzhou.

Wang Qun commanded his men to surround the city with high spirits, "Pull up the artillery!"

Thirty pieces of artillery were pulled up, and the gunners began to prepare.

"Persuade to surrender!"

Wang Qun pointed to the city head, and one of his subordinates rode away.

"The Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty consisted of millions of troops. If you surrender now, you will be given preferential treatment. If you don't surrender... you will be killed!"

"Fire the arrow!"

Arrows swooped in from the top of the city like locusts, and the sergeant who shouted fled in panic.

"ignition!"

"Boom boom boom boom!"

Iron bullets hit the city wall, and the rammed earth wall trembled.

"Datong! I want Datong!"

Wang Qun is the commander of the front division of the palace, and this time he was ordered to lead the army to attack Xijing Road.

"Shen Guogong is attacking from the west, we are attacking from the east, and we are a few days ahead of schedule!" Wang Qun looked at the generals under his command, and said solemnly: "Dianqiansi can't lose his face. We must arrive in Datong before Shen Guogong. ,otherwise……"

A general smiled ferociously and said: "Commander, please order me to attack the city!"

"Commander, I would like to play as a striker!"

"What the hell! I respect Duke Shen, but this is not the time to respect him. Whoever gets to Datong Mansion first will be the winner of this battle. Commander, please give the order!"

A pair of eyes were red, and the nostrils were like spitting fire.

Wen Wu is first and Wu Wu is second. At this time, who will let whom?

Wang Qun was very satisfied with the morale of his men and said: "Wan Sheng's army will stay to protect the officials, so we don't have muskets, but good men will have to fight with swords and guns to make achievements. Get ready."

"Boom boom boom boom!"

The artillery was bombarding unhurriedly.

"Boom!"

When a section of the city wall collapsed, Wang Qun pulled out his long knife and shouted: "Destroy the city!"

"Break the city!"

Amid the cheers of the crowd, the Song army attacked frantically.

"This artillery is easy to use. If this thing had existed back then, how would the Liao people dare to come?"

Wang Qun looked at his subordinates attacking and said in a leisurely manner.

At the gap at the top of the city, a fierce fight broke out between the two sides.

"Crossbow forward!"

Wang Qun's command was quite satisfactory.

The crossbow arrows covered the area, causing heavy casualties to the enemy.

"Shen Guogong invented the Shenwei Crossbow, which can be called an artifact of our military strategist. This man..." Wang Qun narrowed his eyes and said; "This man is both civil and military. I have paid attention to the affairs of this dynasty. I have never seen such a young man in the past hundred years." A handsome man. I thought that this man might be crowned king!"

"Commander of the Palace, you can't be crowned king while you're still alive, that's not possible."

According to the rules of the Song Dynasty, when you are alive, you are at most the Duke of the country. When you die, it doesn't matter. You can be named a king and you can be buried with dignity.

Wang Qun shook his head, "You don't understand. If one day he is willing to let go of everything, he will not be far away from becoming the king."

"Seal the king..."

The generals under his command couldn't help but feel proud, "How great would it be if someone could do that?"

"Don't be like the old sow drooling...foaming! Go and attack the city!" Wang Qun drove away his subordinates, looked at the west alone, and said lightly: "Mr. Shen, I heard that Xiao Ding is a powerful general, so You’re welcome here.”

——Bai Fo, the same as: vain grinding, futile entanglement, wasted effort.

"The city is broken!"

At the top of the city, a large flag with Song characters was flying high.

In the smoke of gunpowder, countless sergeants rushed into the gap, and then strangled the Liao army in the city.

"This is the Great Song Dynasty!" Wang Qun praised: "This momentum is truly unrivaled."

Then came the purge, but Wang Qun couldn't wait any longer. "Five thousand people were left to strangle the Liao army, and the rest immediately attacked."

"The Commander-in-Chief has orders, attack!"

The overwhelming cavalry began to rush on their way. A sergeant stood on the top of the city and watched, and couldn't help but praise: "My Song Dynasty is really mighty!"

Before noon on the third day, when they were still seven or eight miles away from Datong, Wang Qun was suddenly startled and said, "Stop!"

The whole army stopped, and Wang Qun said with a solemn expression: "Our army came all the way, but we didn't encounter any enemy scouts. This is wrong. I'm afraid there's not an ambush. Let's check! Send out the rangers to both wings immediately!"

The rangers on both wings began to search, and Wang Qun cautiously ordered his men to retreat a certain distance.

"The scout is back."

Ahead, the scout came back in a hurry.

"It seems there are more than a hundred more riders?"

Damn it!

What does it mean?

Wang Qun raised the telescope and could not put it down again.

"Commander of the Palace, the Duke has led the army to surround Datong."

Wang Qun said in astonishment: "Where is Xiao Ding? Isn't he a famous warrior?"

Didn't this warrior hold Shen An back for a moment?

"So fast?" He thought this was a bit strange.

"A small force of our army attacked. Xiao Ding covered up the attack, but was entangled by the Tianwu Army's musketry. Then the main force covered up the attack. The enemy army had no time to block the gate. The city gate was broken by artillery, and then the city was breached."

It was a simple statement, but it made Wang Qun very frustrated.

Going all the way to Datong, when they could see the city wall, Wang Qun asked, "Why didn't the cannon fire?"

The accompanying scout said: "The Duke did not give way to the cannon."

When everyone went over, they saw that the Song army had surrounded Datong City, and artillery was placed outside the city gate. This was a gate-blocking posture.

Unlike Wang Qun who was eager to attack the city, the Song army was taking turns eating, as calmly as if they were on an outing.

"Dong Shen!"

"Wang Dianshuai."

When the two sides met, Wang Qun couldn't wait to ask: "Why not attack the city?"

"Let's talk after dinner." Shen An pointed to the stove next to him and motioned to get Wang Dianshuai something to eat.

Wang Qun's anxious heart gradually calmed down somehow, and then he made a bowl of soup and had lunch with flatbread.

After eating, Shen An even let his subordinates rest for half an hour.

"Fighting after eating is not good for the stomach." Shen An's reason made Wang Qun and others confused.

Everyone in the martial arts knows that once a fight breaks out, not to mention the stomach and intestines, even the heart, liver, stomach and lungs have to be moved.

But this Duke Shen is different, he is leisurely and leisurely.

But look at his subordinates. Under this carefree atmosphere, they don't even feel nervous at all.

"Commander, is this the art of war?" a commander asked.

Wang Qun nodded, "The general is the soul of the army. If the general doesn't panic, the army won't panic. It's really smart."

Shen's art of war has been studied countless times in the military, especially the blitzkrieg during the Northwest Expedition, which was the hottest among the hot spots.

Countless warriors are thinking about the word speed.

This is the concept of miscellaneous studies, so many people buy miscellaneous studies textbooks and read them.

At the top of the city, Liao general Huang Bingcheng sneered, "Datong is not strong enough. The Song army thought it would collapse with one blast of artillery, but someone has prepared good things and is waiting for them...!"

Datong City in the future sounds very good, but it is not good at this moment. It is not a male city, and the quality is worrying.

Just fifty steps behind the city wall, a city appeared.

Yes.

It’s the city!

The original city wall became the outer city, and another city wall was rebuilt fifty steps away, forming a double-sided city wall with a distance of fifty steps in the middle.

"After the Song army rushes to the city, they will find themselves in a dilemma. They have to rush down the city, and then we can kill them calmly on the wall behind..."

This is a grand plan.

"This is His Majesty's plan." Huang Bingcheng said excitedly: "There is countless food and grass in the city, we will definitely drag the Song Army here! At least half a year!"

"The Song Army is attacking."

Outside the city, the Song army began to gather.

The artillery was pushed out.

"Get ready to withdraw!"

Huang Bingcheng said proudly: "Leave a few hundred people here, and everyone else will go to the second city wall."

The Liao army retreated to the city behind like a tide.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

The shelling began.

In just three rounds, Datong City was completely destroyed.

"My lord, there are no enemy troops at the top of the city!"

News came from the lookout.

Shen An was startled, then narrowed his eyes and raised his hand, "Get up there."

The army stagnated and then slowed down. A group of scouts rushed over quickly. After reaching the bottom of the city, they climbed up carefully.

One was hit by an arrow, while the other stood there, stunned, before being dragged off.

"There is a city!"

The scout quickly came back and reported: "My lord, the enemy has built another city behind, fifty paces, with fifty paces in the middle."

"This is..." Wang Qun had never heard of such a method, "Fifty steps, our army will be attacked as soon as we go up, and we have to rush down in the middle, and then attack the city again, fifty steps... how many people will die? "

This is a very cool idea.

"The Tianwu Army steps forward."

Shen An said calmly: "Today someone is going to destroy Datong City!"

The Tianwu army stepped forward in formation, and the crossbowmen followed immediately.

After arriving at the city, according to the preset distance of fifty steps, the crossbowmen began to cover.

"Fire the arrow!"

Dark clouds covered the city behind, and Huang Bingcheng covered it with a shield, "The Song army is coming up, prepare..."

The Liao army at the top of the city smiled ferociously and took out their bows and arrows. There were also things like gold juice and rolling stones and wood boiled on the side.

Everything is ready, just waiting for the Song people to come and die.

"The Song Army is coming up. UU read www.uukanshu.net "

The arrow rain suddenly stopped, Huang Bingcheng put down his shield, and when he saw the Song army emerging from the city, he shouted: "Today is the day when a certain person becomes famous, prepare..."

The archer stood up, drew his bow and nocked an arrow.

Song Jun calmly raised the thing in his hand.

A distance of fifty paces was perfect for a flintlock.

"What is Song Jun doing?" Huang Bingcheng was stunned.

"volley!"

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Smoke spurted out from the barrel, and the lead bullets had already flown out first.

The archers at the top of the city fell down one after another, and amidst the pitiful howls, someone threw Huang Bingcheng down.

"What is that? What is that?"

Huang Bingcheng struggled, opened his own soldiers, and then risked raising his head.

The second row of the Song Army stepped forward.

"volley!"

"Bang bang bang bang..."

"ah……"

Screams came from beside him, and an archer fell.

When Huang Bingcheng saw blood coming from his chest, he tore open his armor. When he saw a small opening on his chest, he put his fingers in to dig.

"What is it? What is it?" He didn't know what hurt his subordinate, so he could only dig it out.

"Ah..." The sergeant was in so much pain that he knocked down Huang Bingcheng with one punch.

Huang Bingcheng lay on the ground and gasped: "Half a year...half a year..."

In order to build this city within a city, they have been careful and spent countless manpower and material resources, but now it has become the result of the Song Army's victory.

If they had stuck to the outer city from the beginning, then the Song Army would have to pay a heavy price even if they had such terrifying weapons.

But now the inner city has become a self-defeating work. After spending countless manpower and material resources, it has successfully deceived itself.

"Your Majesty..." Huang Bingcheng burst into tears, "Da Liao! This Daliao!"
