Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 1193 The army presses the territory

"What's going on? We've been fighting for most of the night, why haven't we heard any news yet?" Wang Ding frowned, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

Shi Wenhuan was a little restless after hearing this. He opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

"Be calm and don't be impatient, be at ease and don't be impatient!" After all, Zhao Yutou is older and has a lot of determination.

"It's okay to wait like this. Let me go out and have a look!" Wang Ding thought for a while, but still felt unsure, so he couldn't help but stand up and said.

"No, if anything changes, I have to ask you to take command." Zhao Yutou saw this and quickly dissuaded him.

"But" Wang Dinggang opened his mouth, but was interrupted by a shout.

"Report! Emergency military information!"

"Come in and report!" Wang Ding's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he sat down again, calming down and saying.

As soon as Wang Ding finished speaking, a soldier ran in panting and reported: "Military information at the North Gate, Du Hongyu Department fought fiercely with the Ming Army Liaodong elite for an hour and a half, completely annihilating the enemy who entered the urn, and obtained 130 corpses. Seventeen bodies.”

"Three of our troops were killed in the battle and eleven were injured. Among them, Director Du Hongyu was hit by seven arrows. Thanks to his excellent armor, he was lucky enough to survive!"

"Is it serious?" Wang Ding was stunned after hearing this, and then he continued to ask.

"If you didn't lead the enemy into Wengcheng and slaughter them, how could you hurt your own family?"

"Fortunately, they are all flesh injuries. Because they are blocked by the nail plates, these injections only penetrated the skin by one or two fingers!" The visitor quickly explained.

"The Liaodong Army is so fierce. Even if we were surrounded by us in the barbican city, they would still draw their bows to fight back."

"Several brothers were accidentally hit by arrows, and they were all pierced through the armor. One even died on the spot because he was shot through a slit in the armor!"

"So cruel?" Wang Ding couldn't help being surprised when he heard this.

The armor of this era was not invulnerable. If it was shot at close range by a strong bow or stabbed with a spear, it would be penetrated.

However, generally as long as it penetrates less than an inch into the nail plate, it will not cause fatal injuries.

As a descendant of Master Du Song, Du Hongyu has five hundred soldiers under his command, all of whom are well-protected elites and can be said to be "invulnerable".

As a result, they actually killed three people and injured the director Du Hongyu while surrounding each other in the urn city, which was beyond Wang Ding's expectation.

"General, look at this arrow!" The soldier was obviously prepared and quickly handed over a long arrow.

"Three ounces of arrows?" Wang Ding reached out and took the long arrow, weighed it, and said with a look of surprise on his face.

According to the Ming Dynasty's standards for war bows and arrows: for a bow with a strength of about ten kilograms, the arrows can weigh one qian and two cents, and for a bow of 100 kilograms, the arrows can weigh one qian and two qian.

Wang Ding, who was born as a general in Yulin, has been practicing archery since he was a child. How could he not know how powerful it is?

"If you can use such a heavy arrow, you must not be a powerful man!" He couldn't help but sigh.

"Tiangong Kaiwu" says: When making a bow, the strength of human power is regarded as the priority. The upper force can pull one hundred and twenty kilograms. If it exceeds this, it will be the force of a tiger, and there is no way to count it.

"Exactly, the customs in Liaodong are different from those in Yulin. They like to use long bows and heavy arrows. The light ones are two taels and the heavy ones are three taels. They can be called 'little spears'!" The soldier couldn't help but sigh.

It turns out that Liaodong is close to the Jurchens. Not only do the two sides have similar clothing, but they even have similar weapons and equipment.

These elites under Zu Dalue not only include real Jurchens, but also many Han'er who use "Jurchen bows".

This caused Wang Ding and others who had never been exposed to the "Jurchen Bow" to suffer a small loss, but they were also amazed by this weapon with astonishing lethality.

The two sides fought all night, and there is no need to say anything.

Early in the morning of the second day, it was dawn. Yang Sichang saw that he could not attack for a long time and his soldiers were tired, so he was about to give the order to retreat.

Suddenly, a cannon shot was heard from the city, and a general was seen walking out of the north gate tower.

The general shouted loudly from upstairs: "It is indecent to come and not return!"

"You dare to attack my city, but you must know how powerful our Yulin soldiers are!"

"Come forward, General Ming, and come and collect the corpse!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, he saw thirty or fifty strong men appearing on the city, each carrying an object and throwing it down the city with a "plop".

Yang Sichang took a closer look and found that the object was none other than the soldiers who had invaded Huaiqing Mansion last night.

Just because the rebels did not count merit by their heads, they were stripped from the armor pockets and thrown down.

More than a hundred corpses rolled down like rag bags filled with useless things, and some blood even spilled out, staining the city wall red.

"How dare you, thief!" Yang Sichang couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry when he saw this. He felt frightened in his heart and almost fainted on the spot.

"Supervisor, please don't disturb me. This is just a traitor's plan to provoke the general!" When Zu Dalue saw this, his eyes were split open, his blood almost boiled over, and he wanted to rush forward and fight.

Finally, he stopped his impulse and calmed down a bit. Only then did Zu Dale, the commander-in-chief of the reinforcement and suppression, speak out to dissuade him.

"I got it!" Yang Sichang's teeth were about to break. He couldn't help but get a long arrow from his bodyguard, broke it, and swore.

"Shu Zian dares to insult me. If I don't kill him in the future, I swear I won't be a human being!"

"Superintendent?" Zu Dale couldn't help but glance at Yang Sichang in surprise and asked in confusion.

"Let's go back to Qinghua Town to discuss it again!" Yang Sichang turned his head, never wanting to see the city in front of him that hit his head with blood.

"Yes, the general will take your orders!" Zu Dale also felt very uncomfortable.

The soldiers sent to Duomen this time were the best among the best, and many of them were even servants of his ancestral family who had grown up with him since childhood.

Now they are all dead, all worthless, just because of a mistake by himself and others, a small mistake.

"Thief, today's humiliation will be repaid a hundred times!" Zu Dale turned his head and looked at the sad place dyed red by the morning glow again, and walked towards the rising sun without looking back.

When you come, you are full of ambition and arrogance; when you go back, you are downcast and sluggish!

The feeling of failure is unpleasant, but now I can only bear it silently.

Along the way, the right commander Yang Sichang didn't say a word, the reinforcement and suppression commander Zu Dale didn't say a word, and the other soldiers were even more silent. Frustration filled everyone's hearts for a while.

Yang Sichang didn't know how to fight, and Zu Dale had never suffered such a disastrous defeat. However, they didn't know that if this state of affairs continued until night and was not reversed in time, a camp roar might break out.

"Report~Urgent military service, urgent military service!" While everyone was immersed in sadness, a long shout suddenly interrupted their thoughts.

"Come up and report to me!" Yang Sichang realized his responsibility after hearing this, and he couldn't help but cheer up.

"The Governor of Water Transport, Zhu Dadian, sent an envoy to report that the sneak attack on Meng County was discovered by thieves and could not be done. He has already led his troops to the north, hoping to join forces with the governor to seize the city of Huaiqing!" the soldier shouted loudly. Report.

"Okay, okay!" Yang Sichang almost burst into tears when he heard this, and asked repeatedly.

"Where is the army? How far is it from here?"

"The army is only ten miles away from Huaiqing City, and it is only twenty miles away from me!" the soldier responded.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Right Supervisor Yang Sichang couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar, "There is no perfect way!"

"People often say: It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Who would have thought that we would be able to get revenge today? This is God's will!"

"Supervisor, what about us?" Zu Dalue's gloom disappeared after hearing this, and he couldn't help but rub his hands in excitement.

"Let's march westward and fight quickly to seize Huaiqing City!" Yang Sichang ordered with a wave of his hand.
