Chapter 277
The defeat of the Jin Army's front line reached Wanyan Zonghan's ears immediately.

Wanyan Zonghan was furious.

"The sorcerer's technique used by the Song army is just a bow and arrow. If anyone dares to confuse people with demonic words, I will immediately drag him out and kill him."

Wanyan Zonghan said angrily.

But having said that, Wanyan Zonghan was still a little helpless in the face of the powerful Jingkang crossbow of the Song army.

This kind of crossbow is so powerful that ordinary shields are no match at all.

Even if the soldiers held their shields in front, they couldn't resist the shooting of this powerful crossbow at all.

Wanyan Simin couldn't think of a good way at this moment.

In fact, this situation, in the final analysis, is a kind of strength collision between advanced farming civilization and backward slavery civilization.

The Song Dynasty represented the most advanced farming civilization in the world at this time, and the Jurchens were really a slavery society on the rise, although this society was now transforming into a feudal society.

"Pass down the order to withdraw the whole army, split into two groups, and attack Dongzhimen and Xizhimen instead!"

Wanyan Zonghan took a deep breath and gave the order.

Yingtian Mansion is a big city. Although it is not as big as the current Nanjing City, there are as many as eight gates. Since the northernmost Xuanwu Gate cannot be attacked, then change the direction and attack the Dongzhi Gate and Xizhi Gate on both sides. .

Wanyan Zonghan has never been that kind of pedantic commander.

The Jin army is outside the city, and they are flexible. Since there is no way to break through Xuanwu Gate, they can attack another gate. Anyway, as long as they can open a gate, it will be fine.

It doesn't matter which door you enter Ying Tian Mansion from, it's all possible.

Practice has proved that Wanyan Zonghan's strategy is still very correct.

For things like the Jingkang crossbow, although the Song army had equipment, the amount of equipment was not very large, and it was only placed on the northernmost city wall. As for the inevitable city wall, there was no such thing at all.

The army was divided into two groups, one was led by Wan Yanchang to capture Dongzhimen, and the other was led by Wanyan Simin to capture Xizhimen.

Wanyanchang was also attacked by Jingkangnu at Dongzhimen.

However, unlike the retreat that began to attack Xuanwumen, the Jin army under Wan Yanchang did not retreat, but continued to charge forward as if desperately.

It's not that these Jin soldiers are not afraid of death, it's actually Wan Yanchang who gave the order to die, those who dare to retreat will be punished, and the first person to stand on the top of the wall will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold.

Either way, it's a death. Instead of retreating and being beheaded, it's better to fight hard. If you are lucky enough to climb the tower, it will be a hundred taels of gold.

There is a saying in the art of war that three times the enemy can attack the city, but in the current situation, the Jin army has only 3 people. When encountering the Song army who resisted desperately, it is not easy to climb the city wall.

The huge Jingkang crossbow was like a meat grinder, frantically harvesting the lives of the Jinjun who rushed forward, blood was flowing everywhere, broken arms and stumps were flying all over the sky, the scene was really scary.

At this point in the war, Wan Yanchang was completely red-eyed. With so many people dead, it was actually very difficult to retreat, and the Jin army under the city was already red-eyed.

The teammates around the side were shot through by the crossbow arrows, and the people behind would rush up immediately, one after another, the golden army under the city was like meat skewers pierced by bamboo sticks one by one. But I couldn't laugh at all.

"General Wanyanchang, retreat, the Song army's giant crossbow is too powerful, if this continues, our army will suffer heavy casualties!" After the vanguard Wanyanchi rushed over, he hurriedly said to Wanyanchang.

"No, so many soldiers have been sacrificed. If we withdraw now, it will be a waste of all previous efforts." Wan Yanchang didn't want to stop here. In fact, sometimes this war is like a gamble, with so many people involved. , if he couldn't get his money back, Wan Yanchang couldn't accept it at all.

"But general, if this goes on like this, our [-] troops may have to come here." Wan Yanchi said anxiously to Wan Yanchang.

"What did you say?" Enraged by Wanyan Chi's words, Wan Yanchang picked up his collar and said with red eyes.

Wanyanchi felt as if he was being stared at by a wild animal, he lowered his head subconsciously.

Although he is a master of the ninth rank, Wanyan Chi felt a little apprehensive when he saw Wanyan Chang's cannibalistic eyes.

This is the coercion of the superiors. Although Wan Yanchang is only an eighth-rank master, he has been in a high position for a long time, and he naturally carries a bit of majesty.

Fortunately, Wanyanchi was not really intimidated, he said bravely: "General Wanyanchang, if you leave the green hills there, you are not afraid of running out of firewood. Let's avoid its edge first, and it's not too late to make plans when we think of a way to crack it."

"If you continue to persist here, not only will you not be able to break through the city gate, but you will lose the lives of the soldiers in vain. It will be very difficult to break through the city."

Wanyan Chi said with some emotion.

After all, Wan Yanchang is considered a famous general. Although the death of a large number of soldiers has made him a little red-eyed, he has not lost his sanity in the end.

Hearing Wanyan Chi's furious roar, he finally came to his senses. At this moment, he took a deep breath, and Yang Tian let out a loud roar, which could be regarded as venting all the turbidity in his heart.

"Ming Jin withdraws troops!"

Wan Yanchang seemed to squeeze these four words out from between his teeth. That's right, these four words were simply a huge shame to him.

After all, the Jin Kingdom's army, which was invincible on the battlefield before, actually suffered a big loss three times in a row in front of a group of rabble in Yingtian Mansion.

Wan Yanchang wanted to take revenge, that's why this happened, but the current situation is that they have no way to get close under the attack of the Song Army's heavy artillery.

Aggrieved, really aggrieved.

But at this time, the situation of Wanyan Simin who attacked Xizhimen was much better.

Wanyan Zonghan's strategy is still very correct, he expected the situation is very correct, the number of Jingkang crossbows in Yingtianfu is not very large, and being able to equip two city gates is considered the limit.

In Liu Kai's judgment, Dongzhimen and Xuanwumen should be the main force of the Jin army's attack, so basically all Jingkang crossbows are equipped in these two positions.

As for Xizhimen, because it is far away from the Jin Army camp, it is less likely to be attacked, so there are not a few bed crossbows equipped here.

When Wanyan Simin led the army to attack, there was indeed a bit of chaos on the city wall, because the defenders of Xizhimen really didn't expect why the Jin army would stay away from the nearby Dongzhimen and Xuanwumen instead of fighting. Come and beat yourself up.
