Chapter 540 Array in front of the city

Walking out of the Laoshui River Valley and looking at the continuous low hills ahead, Wanyan Qingying said: "It's so strange. None of the raids in the past two days have returned to the military camp. What's so strange about this Shenshan County?"

The deputy general said: "Does of raids are enough to capture the county town. The husband stepped forward, maybe the raids are waiting for us in Shenshan County."

Wanyan Yanying shook her head and said, "Don't think of the war so smoothly. This Shenshan County is said to be the soldiers sent by Wang Xiaoli, which is very different from other Song troops. Back in Jingmen, my uncle and I returned to the north from there and were blocked by Wang Xiaoli, and the ranger disappeared. Perhaps this is Wang Xiaoli's habit of fighting. Many cavalry in the army cleared the ranger before the war started. - Give them instructions and let everyone move forward carefully!"

On the hillside three miles away next to him, Jiang Min used a telescope to observe the Jin army. His seventy or eighty cavalry under him continued to move forward with the Jin army.

In the evening, seeing the Jin army start camping, Jiang Min said, "It's fifteen miles away from the three forts ahead. The Jin army camped here, and it seems that they want to attack the fortress tomorrow. We have less than a hundred people, so we will definitely not be able to stop the ranger reconnaissance of the three thousand Jin army. From now on, just follow the Jin army, don't get close. Even if the Jin army sends the ranger out, don't worry about them."

The subordinate said that he promised.

It was not until dark that Wanyan Qiying was in his handsome tent, using wine and meat while listening to his subordinates' reports.

The deputy general returned home and said, "There is no household within ten miles of the surrounding area. The guard here is Jiang Min. After hearing that, he built a new fortress and all the people were taken to the fortress. Fifteen miles ahead was Shenshan County. There was no city at first, but now three forts are consolidated. The three forts are not far apart, and they are in a horn-like manner."

Wanyan Qiying said: "This Jiang Min is very careful in doing things."

He said back: "Mr. Lang, look at Shenshan County, there is no flaw. This Jiang Min is the opponent."

Wan Yiying smiled and said, "If you are careful, what if there are no soldiers? Inquire from multiple sources, there are only about a thousand defenders in the Shenshan Mountain. What should a thousand do in front of our army? Tomorrow is the ninth day of the year, set off in the ugly day, and attack the Shenshan County in the Chenshan Mountain! See if these three forts built by the Song army can stop me!"

I don't call it right.

When the generals went out, Wanyan Qiying cut the meat with a knife and drank a sip of wine from time to time, not taking the war that will come seriously. After decades of being in the army, he was defeated by Wang Xiaowei in Jingmen once. What kind of person is Jiang Min? He wants to defeat himself with more than a thousand Song troops!

Back then, in Jingmen, my soldiers were fewer than Wang Xiaohun, and Wang Xiaohun had a better place. This time, my soldiers were two or three times that of Jiang Min, so how could there be any reason for failure? Since Jingkang, three thousand gold soldiers have been able to rampant in half of China. It is a joke to be blocked by the small county of Shenshan.

The next day before dawn, the Jin army had already set off their camp and headed straight towards the Shenshan County town ahead.

The moon had already set. In the dark night, there were only stars in the sky, looking curiously at the winding Jin army. The Jin army did not ignite the torch, and the army marched quietly along the avenue towards the county town. The evening breeze in spring brought dew and hung the soldiers' clothes.

In Shenshan County, the commander Yao Su received the news of the departure of the Jin army and hurriedly recruited the generals. He said to his personal soldiers: "The Jin army is still several miles away and can only arrive here in the county town in the morning. Go to the other two forts to call Qin and Zhao and we will discuss it."

The three forts are very close to each other. Shenshan County is located in the south, with two castles on the north side, one on the left and one on the right, just a distance that ensures that their artillery can hit the front of Shenshan County.

After receiving the news, Qin Dutou of the Left Fort and Zhao Dutou of the Right Fort quickly arrived at the county town.

In the village hall, the commander Yao Su sat in the middle. On the left were Qin Dutou and Zhao Dutou, and on the right were Meng Dutou and Yan Dutou who were guarding the county town. The command and rear army of the camp were led by Lu Jianye, and hid in the mountains with Jiang Min, and there were only four capitals guarding the city.

Looking at everyone, Yao Su said, "The news ahead is that the Jin army has set out, and it is estimated that they can reach the city at the time of Mao. The Jin army is so anxious that they want to quickly capture us. Remember the arrangements before the war and use artillery well. The Jin army should concentrate their efforts to attack my fort, and do not miss the opportunity. Remember what Zhao Fu said, use artillery to kill the enemy to the greatest extent!"

All the generals said yes.

Yao Su said: "To be honest, I am very nervous now. The three thousand gold soldiers could have been everywhere before, but no one could do anything to them. Now we only have 400 people to defend the city, which one is right. You must remember that no matter what happens, the left and right forts should not leave the city. Unless the Jin army abandons me and attacks the left or right forts with all their strength, I will send reinforcements! Before the war, I had nothing to say, we can only say that we will fight to the death together!"

Qin Du said, "The revenge has been arranged clearly, and the Jin army is just going to die!"

Yao Su smiled and said, "It's right, the arrangement of tutoring is very good. But there are many things that cannot be explained clearly above the battle formation, so I can only ask you."

After saying that, he arranged some chores such as how to cooperate and support the three forts, so he ordered Qin Dutou and Zhao Dutou to return to his fort.

After ordering Meng Dutou and Yan Dutou to prepare for the war, Yao Su walked to the city alone.

The long river gradually fell, and the skylight appeared to the east. Everything around was quiet, quiet and quiet. In the slightly lit skylight, the brigade of Jin troops slowly appeared. They had a neat formation and were close to Shenshan County in an orderly manner.

Looking at the approaching Jin army, Yao Su took a long breath and then whispered: "Zhi Mom, I'm going to see the real chapter today!"

After saying that, he punched the fist violently and suddenly felt excited for no reason.

Wanyan Qiying looked at the castle in front of him and said sternly: "Camp two hundred steps in front of the city! Don't wait for dawn to attack the city directly! Those who climb first will receive a hundred taels of silver!"

The generals expressed their promise. The quiet army suddenly became boiling.

Yao Su on the top of the city saw that the Jin army did not stop, but kept forcing two hundred steps into the city before starting to make a formation. Worried that he had read it wrong, Yao Su rubbed his eyes hard and said, "The Jin army is crazy! If you don't set up camp in front of the city, do you want to break the city in one day?"

After saying that, he turned around suddenly and sternly said: "Article ready!"

The artillery soldiers on the top of the city said together. They quickly loaded gunpowder into the cannon and prepared shells.

According to normal circumstances, the Jin army should camp one mile away, two miles away, or even five miles away, and organize attacks every day. When they are close, not to mention the artillery of the Song army, even if the defenders in the city suddenly open the door and rushed out, it is easy to disperse the Jin army. Wanyan Qiying did this and was indeed too confident.
Chapter completed!
