Chapter 493 Night Attack (2)
In fact, Liang Yongneng has not yet figured out what happened, but a greater fear flashed in his eyes, so the morning breeze blew on the night sky.●⌒
The wind is not very strong, about three or four levels, but the fatal thing is that it is not the northwest wind, but the rare southeast wind.
Spring is coming, and Yao Lin laughed while killing the enemy.
What kind of wind is blowing, what weather is? Who can control this? But this southeast morning wind came in time.
The southeast wind accompanied the flames quickly flew towards the west gate.
"Retreat, retreat." Liang Yongneng roared desperately, and he also ran back to his horse.
But the city gate was so big that the fire was chasing behind it. I don’t know how many Xia troops rushed in and blocked the city gate together. I couldn’t even retreat if I wanted to retreat. Some Xia soldiers saw the fire getting closer and closer, and their eyes were red in anger. They pulled out their swords and chopped at their companions. So the city gate became more chaotic and tighter.
As for the city, many Xia soldiers were trapped in the sea of fire. Most of the people in the Western Xia were not iron armor, but leather armor. They were just leather jackets. In this season, they could resist the cold and play some defensive roles. But these fur coats with fur are more likely to catch fire. When they touched the fire, they would burn.
Many Xia soldiers were burned to death and screamed miserably.
The sounds are getting more and more, and the city gate is blocked even more violently.
"General, go to the city." said his personal guard.
Liang Yongneng immediately abandoned his love cavalry and climbed to the top of the city. Not only did he, but many Xia soldiers also saw that they could not escape from the city gate, so they climbed to the top of the city. Fortunately, the siege ladders were still there. They climbed down from the siege ladders one by one. Liang Yongneng also climbed down. There were many confused Xia soldiers outside the city. Liang Yongneng had too many troops. Therefore, from the beginning to the end, from when Wang Juzhang made a combat plan to Yao Lin on the front line, there were no intention to attack all the troops under him. At this time, there were many Xia soldiers rushing into the fort, but there were more Xia soldiers outside the city.
But they didn't understand why Anjiang Fort burned.
Liang Yongneng returned to the front of the army in horror and ordered: "Send people to the city gate immediately so that the three armies will not be crowded."
Only in this way can more people escape.
However, it didn't work. And under the southeast morning breeze, the entire Anjiang Fortress became a sea of fire. Many Xia soldiers also climbed to the top of the city, but because they were all on fire, they jumped off the top of the city regardless of looking for a siege ladder.
But Anjiang Fort is not a snow mud castle. The walls are tall, and the soil below is still frozen and extremely hard. Some have fallen to death, while others have not fallen to death. But they are also seriously injured and scream in pain on the ground.
"It's over, it's over, I don't know how many soldiers have been lost." said one of Liang Yongneng's personal guards.
Liang Yongneng was angry and heard what he said, he pirated his sword and killed the guard.
This is a sign of incompetence.
It was right for him to attack the city anxiously. If he did not rescue it in time, it would be like the three armies of Ding Ge's subordinates were wiped out. But why didn't he send some smart people to the city first to take a look? How much time would this be delayed? If that were the case, how could the three armies not be alert when they saw the piles of hay moved out of various houses? Is it necessary to vent their anger with their personal guards?
However, if Erliang had not been the leader of the two Xia troops and replaced by Renduoling Ding as the head coach, then Wang Ju would have such a good appetite?
Of course, Liang Yongneng's main force is still there, and it is impossible to count how many soldiers have been lost.
He was still staring at Anjiang Castle blankly.
In just a moment, there were fewer and fewer Xia soldiers on the top of the city and at the gate, because the fire had already reached this place.
Anjiang Fort was "taken" and burned to this point. The Song army could not even defend it. However, Liang Yongneng almost cried in a hurry after taking it like this.
The fatal thing was that in his rage, he killed his personal guard with one sword, making the other generals dare not speak. After a while, Liang Yongneng saw that no one had escaped alive from the fort, and then he thought of something.
There was still a fight in the east of Anjiang Fortress. He said: "Immediately dispatch two troops to the Xinjiang Fortress from the small path."
These are two very rugged and rugged paths. Not only are the roads narrow and full of ice and snow, but each has a peak, which is extremely steep. However, Liang Yongneng sent soldiers to control the peak in advance. What should we do? Can the army of Gui Ding Ge really not save? Besides, the actual strength of the Song army is not large, and the two Song troops together may not be as high as 10,000 people. As long as reinforcements pass, if Ding Ge can stabilize some of the troops, he can turn defeat into victory.
Some Xia generals whine in their hearts, that's right. But they were also depressed. Is the Major General of Xixia? Why did they let these two Liang be the main generals? But this is not right!
Two Xia troops burned the road from both sides and tried to continue to rescue.
Even at this point of loss, the troops here are still extremely large. Although they each sent two troops, each of them had nearly ten thousand troops. However, they each had their own horses and climbed towards the two peaks.
When I saw the peak, I suddenly heard two loud noises. Countless stones and mud flew towards the sky, and then fell down and hit the heads of these climbing soldiers. With this explosion alone, nearly a thousand soldiers were damaged.
Then, with the help of the afterglow of the moonlight, Liang Yongneng saw a magical scene. With this explosion, the two peaks almost disappeared. As for the two simple outposts, they had long turned into gray. Of course, these two roads were gone.
"It's so cruel, so cruel." Liang Yongneng was so angry that his blood was about to spurt out, and his eyes were filled with stars, and he almost fainted on the ground.
There are only three choices now. First, the fire in Anjiang Fort is burned out and entering the city. Second, the stones from the two peaks are removed one by one, and third, the path is to go around from a further path. However, no matter which method is done, it will take several hours. When our army appears on the east side of the fort, the battle will be over long ago.
In fact, the battle has ended.
Seeing the fire in the fort, Ru Ding knew that the situation was going to go, so he led a team of troops to flee southwest. Gao Min's Song army was blocked in the southeast, so he couldn't escape. Behind was the burning Anjiang Fort, and there was no way to escape. To the west was the Song army's Xigu Fort, and the road was difficult, so he couldn't escape. So the Rouyuan Village in the southwest was the only place to escape.
"General, get up quickly." A personal guard woke up Liang Yiming.
"What's up?"
“It started burning over there.”
Liang Yibu got up and looked northwest. It was not easy to see it. But the fire in Anjiang Fort was too big. It was approaching the fifth o'clock in the morning. The moonlight gradually dimmed, so there were countless mountain blocks, and the fire could be seen on the Rouyuan Village. It was just the sound of fighting, so I could definitely not hear it.
This made Liang Yimai feel strange, the rhythm is wrong.
Wars occasionally get fire, but it will definitely be wrong when it comes to this big fire.
Besides, even when the Xia army invaded Anjiang Fort, no one dared to set fire. What were the burning of food, grass, and supplies. That was not the most scarce thing in Xixia.
Besides, is it necessary to launch an attack now?
What happened over there?
Liang Yima said, "Send scouts immediately and go around the path to observe."
"Here."
Teams of scouts left the camp.
Shortly after they left, the personal guards came over to report: "General, it's not good. Rouyuan Village sent a team of cavalry out of the camp and rushed towards the direction of the Xinjiang Bayou Fort."
"Let me take a look." Liang Yi climbed up the tower and looked at the west side of Rouyuan Village. The Song army divided a team of soldiers and horses, about a thousand people, but they were all cavalrymen. They were galloping rapidly towards Anjiang Fort.
Now Liang Yimeng cannot tell what happened in Anjiang Fort, but he has a premonition that something bad will happen. He was stunned and said, "Start an attack immediately."
The assembly call sounded.
Xixia soldiers crawled out of the tent, sleepy and didn't know what was going on. However, under the urging of the generals, they immediately put on their clothes and raised their siege equipment, preparing to attack Rouyuan Village.
At this moment, Liang Yimian heard two huge muffled sounds coming from afar. It was so far away that Liang Yimian seemed to feel the ground was shaking. No, Liang Yimian shouted in his heart. It was not the first time he had dealt with the gunpowder of the Song Dynasty. How much gunpowder explosion would have to produce such great power?
"Occurrence, offense," Liang Yichi shouted sharply.
Ru Ding Ge began to escape.
Yao Lin stopped slashing and slaughtering at this time. The overall situation was settled. He didn't have to fight to the death. He rode on a horse and stood at a higher place to watch around. The battle gradually ended on the enemy's Dongying side. As Yao Lin sent people to shout, Gao Min would also like to ask his subordinates to kill the enemy. So many Xia soldiers climbed out of the camp, hugged their heads, and lay under Anjiang Fort, and did not dare to move. Many enemy soldiers fled in all directions. However, there were still some fierce Xia generals who continued to fight with a few people, but these people were very few.
At this time, he saw Brother Ruding and his group of people running southwest.
Gao Min's hands were all infantry, but Yao Lin had a cavalry in his hands. He said: "Infantry follows Gao Du Supervisor to kill the enemy, and the cavalry follows me to chase the enemy."
Ru Ding Ge is the main general here. He broke through the siege and fled with him, and led a large number of Xia troops to escape.
However, Yao Lin soon caught up.
As he caught up, the Xixia infantry who fell behind and the Xia soldiers who had no time to get on the horse immediately dispersed. However, this time, because the road conditions were not good, Ruddie Shou had very few cavalrymen, and ninety percent were infantrymen.
Yao Lin opened a bloody road and continued to chase down regardless of the other deserters. At this time, the two explosions came out.
In fact, they are all arranged in advance.
Although the two mountains were dangerous, they were mainly stones, but there were also some loess, so they wrapped a large amount of gunpowder in advance and placed it under the peak. Then they covered them with stones and soil, including fuzes. Tonight, when the moon was not rising, when the sky was dark, they quietly put more than a dozen soldiers down the fort with ropes and lurked. It was not until the fierce battle that the Xia soldiers were not paying much attention at the peak post. The dozen soldiers spread the soil and found a long fuze. Then when the large enemy was about to climb to the peak, they ignited the lead.
This is a battle that is beyond the times. Even if Wanyan Agu is here, he will suffer a great loss, let alone Liang Yongneng.
Ru Ding Ge should be more powerful than Liang Yong, but at this time he was still confused in his heart, and he had not even figured out where the ambush of the Song Dynasty came out.
But he also guessed that it was probably the disappeared Song army, but didn’t they say they had sneaked back to Dashun City? Why did it appear again?
Why do you think so much? Run away from your life.
But where to escape?
He escaped quickly, and after a while he faintly saw the Rouyuan Village ahead. His personal guard said, "General Ru Ding, this road is not open, just walk around the small road."
"Where is a small road?" Brother Ruding asked anxiously.
“There is a ravine right in front of it.”
"Then escape quickly," said Ru Ding Ge. He couldn't help but say the word "escaping", but he was embarrassed at this moment.
It was indeed very critical. Just because he spoke, he pulled the horses. After a while, he heard the sound of Song Jun's horse hooves behind him.
Ru Ding Ge slapped his horse and ran forward. Seeing that the mountain road he was talking about was not far away, he suddenly heard the sound of war horses galloping in front of him.
"Where to go?" Yeligujie rode a horse and flashed out. Because of the last time the achievements of Dashun City, he became the instructor of a Fanluo cavalry in the Song Dynasty.
"Not good." Brother Ru Ding thought with a miserable expression.
This is simply because there is no way to heaven and no way to enter the earth. Of course, Yeligujie has not many troops, only nearly a thousand cavalry. However, Ru Ding Ge is even more miserable. When he fled here, his subordinates are less than three hundred cavalry. And there are still many Song people who are going to catch up with him.
"Surrender and not kill, dismount immediately." Yeligujie shouted.
"Road over." Brother Ru Ding shouted, "Try your life."
