Chapter 268 "There Are So Many Demons in the Village"

War horses filed out from the city.

These war horses Wanyan Simin looked a little familiar, yes, they were exactly the batch of war horses that Yang Zaixing snatched from him.

Seeing this scene, Wanyan Simin couldn't help but grit his teeth with hatred.

But now is obviously not the time to be angry, because Wanyan Simin found that behind these war horses was pulling a cart, which was covered with cloth, so it was not clear what was on it.

But the answer was soon revealed.

After all, Yang Zaixing didn't want Wanyan Simin to wait too long, the cloth covering the car was lifted, revealing the hideous face inside the car.

Wanyan Simin looked at the bed crossbow on the car, and felt his scalp tingling for a while.

The bed crossbow, also known as the bed crossbow, was developed on the basis of the winch crossbow in the Tang Dynasty.It is to combine two or three bows together, which greatly enhances the tension and strength of the crossbow.

When stretching the crossbow, use a thick rope to connect the crossbow string to the winch. The soldiers shake the winch, open the crossbow string, and install the huge arrow. When firing, the soldiers have to hit the trigger with a sledgehammer. Shoot into the distance.

The power of the bed crossbow is huge, and the huge impact can even be used to attack the city, but now the Song army is using it to deal with the Jin army crossing the river.

For Jin Jun, this is undoubtedly a nightmare.

Compared with bows and arrows, bed crossbows are basically inaccurate, but now the entire Yangtze River is full of Jin troops, and Song troops don't need to aim at all, just shoot a volley of ten thousand arrows.

From afar, Wanyan Simin seemed to hear the jaw-piercing sound of the bed crossbow hinge turning. At this moment, she really wanted to rush up and tell her father, it's dangerous, get back quickly.

But Wanyan Simin still held back, in war, no one is immortal.

No matter when the Jin army chooses to attack the city, the Song army will use these bed crossbows to deal with the Jin army.

There is only one way not to face these bed crossbows, and that is to give up Ying Tianfu.

But Wanyan Zonghan will never give up on Ying Tianfu.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Thousands of arrows fired.

The crossbow bolts as thick as a baby's arm flew towards them, and the huge crossbow bolts were in the sky, covering the sky and blocking out the sun, and even the sky was completely black.

"Dong dong dong..."

Some of the crossbow arrows hit the ship, directly piercing the plank of the ship, and the ship began to take in water. For these landlubbers in the north, it was simply a nightmare.

Of course, sinking into the bottom of the water is not the worst thing, the worst thing is the lethality of this powerful crossbow.

One person was pierced through, but the crossbow arrow remained undiminished, directly piercing another person behind him.

With such a thick crossbow arrow, anyone who is shot by it basically has no possibility of surviving no matter where they hit.

The sound of howling ghosts and wolves resounded from the surface of the river, and blood instantly stained the entire surface of the river red.

Wanyan Zonghan had a gloomy face. At this moment, he was clenching his fists tightly. He was an excellent general. Seeing the tragic deaths of the soldiers, his heart was also grieving.

But at this time, Wanyan Zonghan understood that he could not have any kindness.

"Order, the whole army raids, no one is allowed to retreat!"

Wanyan Zonghan said to the lieutenant beside him.

The sound of war drums is thunderous, which is the signal for the whole army to attack. Casualties are inevitable. At this time, there is no other way but to use human lives to fill them.

Wanyan Zonghan once thought that this would be a tough battle, but he never expected it to be so difficult.

But he also understands that he can't retreat at this time. Retreating means that the people who died in front died in vain, and if he can't successfully cross the river today, it will leave more opportunities for the Song army to forge crossbows.

Wanyan Zonghan would never allow this to happen.

Lives disappeared in front of everyone. Wanyan Simin watched quietly. To be honest, this was not the first time she commanded a battle, but it was the first time she commanded the battle of crossing the river.

In fact, it was the first time that Wanyan Simin encountered such tenacious resistance. After all, the previous Song army often surrendered directly.

"These people may all be fathers, sons, husbands..."

Lin Fan stood beside him and said softly.

Wanyan Simin looked at Lin Fan beside him, and said softly:

"Don't brainwash me, this Yingtian Mansion, we will definitely be able to take it down."

Lin Fan knew that it was difficult to change a person's mind, but he still decided to exert a subtle influence.

But having said that, in fact, when the Song Dynasty became truly powerful, Lin Fan felt that he would definitely let Zhu Lian start the war.

At the very least, it is necessary to bring back Youyun Sixteen States.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Shi Jingtang recognized the thief as his father and dedicated the sixteen prefectures of Youyun to the Liao Kingdom in the north.

But in fact, many people in later generations called Shi Jingtang a traitor. This sentence should not be very accurate, because Shi Jingtang is not a Han Chinese at all, so he can't be called a traitor at all.

Since the founding of Qin Shihuang, the Celestial Dynasty has been invaded by its neighbors in the north, so Qin Shihuang made the feat of building the Great Wall with great talent and strategy.

Although the first emperor was widely criticized for conscripting a large number of militias, it has to be said that the first emperor's feat had a profound impact on later generations.

If Song Dynasty could have the Great Wall as a barrier at this time, it would not be as passive as it is today.

This battle lasted from early morning to noon, and then from noon to night. At this time, the number of Jin Army soldiers who successfully landed on the south bank continued to increase, and it was obvious that the south bank of the Yangtze River could not be defended.

Seeing such a scene, Yang Zaixing did not continue to use the bed crossbow to attack. After all, the bed crossbow is like a cannon, suitable for long-distance shooting. Prepared for a war.

The horses pulling the bed crossbow returned to the city again, and a group of soldiers came out of the city. They replaced their hands with bows and arrows. They also didn't need to aim, and they shot arrows directly forward.

Don't worry about not being able to shoot the enemy at all, after all, there are too many enemies in front of you.

Wanyan Zonghan also had his own way to deal with this. The sound of the drums changed, and immediately soldiers with shields in their hands rushed to the front. With the protection of the shields, the casualties of the soldiers of the Golden Army were greatly reduced, and they began to move forward slowly. pass.

Yang Zaixing knew that under the current circumstances, the Song army had actually lost control of the south bank, but he did not give up. He wanted to strangle the Jin army again in the final stage of the Jin army's siege.

By this time, the war has reached a fever pitch.

I recommend a book "Signing in the Song Dynasty: Marrying Pan Qianjin at the beginning", it is very, very beautiful, and the speed is fast, so go read it
