Chapter 263 Jinshan City is broken
"This, this..." Zhang Tong, the prefect of the Detachment, stood there in a daze, as if he had lost his soul, and there were sounds of killing around him. The soldiers of the Jin army were obviously prepared for it, and after taking action, it was done in one go, like cutting melons and vegetables to kill all the Silla people.
Just a moment ago, when both sides cheered together for peace, all this made him, the prefect, feel like a dream. But in a blink of an eye, there were already corpses everywhere. King Xi Ruli of Silla lived a long life, and he had not yet died, and his eyes were very big and staring at Sima Ji.
"Hey, do you want to speak without trust or go back on your word? Soldiers are tricky, you can't blame me for this." Sima Ji looked at King Silla who had already curled up together and might die at any time.
He could not say that Xi Ruli had no courage, but it was not contradictory to admire this thing, and it was necessary to do it. He reached out and pulled Xi Ruli, who had already collapsed on the ground, then pushed the other party off the platform with a dull bang, and a piece of dust rose up on the ground. Sima Ji walked down the platform step by step. When he passed by Zhang Tong, he snatched the copywriting and simply tore it into pieces, and shouted, "Sima He is in the army, what's going on today?"
"Here!" The Sima of the follower took a step forward and bowed to the silence of wailing, and then looked up and turned a deaf ear to the silence of wailing, and said loudly, "The King of Silla is unpredictable. He surrendered to the Great Jin on the surface, but in fact he had already secretly prepared to steal the camp. Fortunately, His Highness of Yan was prepared and had to see through the evil plan before the other party took action, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. The Silla man's ambitions are unchanged and he must use extraordinary means to eliminate future troubles."
"This matter is not just done by the former Ruli. The three royal families of Silla and the six nobles are all killed." Sima Ji raised his head slightly, without any concealing his intention to expand the implication, "Go back to the camp immediately, attack the army, and conquer Jinshan City."
"Yes!" A soldier knelt on the ground, hoeing the ground with his sword. The red blood slowly flowed down the blade. Then everyone stood up and escorted Sima Ji back to the camp by sheathing.
Zhang Tong was still a little dizzy at this time. He was a military general, but he was not afraid of donating blood. But everything today was too impactful. King Silla was planning to be ill? Does anyone believe this when he said this? He wanted to speak but stopped on the way back, and finally couldn't help asking, "Your Highness, once this matter spreads?"
"Will it spread?" Sima Ji asked with a smile, "Who is going to spread this matter? If the prefect only asks about the cause and effect of the matter, Sima, who just followed the army, said that that's it."
"I'm afraid that no one will win the trust of others, who will believe it?" Zhang Tong lowered his head and sighed heavily.
"Will I believe others? Do you believe it or not!" Sima Ji snorted lightly, his face full of gloom, "Will those who believe it survive, as for those who don't believe it, they will kill them."
The Jin army camp had no longer had the appearance of going up to the south mountain. When he approached the military camp, he could see some of the bodies of Silla people along the way. When he saw that the wound was killed by the cavalry, Sima Jimu did not look sideways and pretended that he had not seen it. Zhang Tong, who followed, secretly formed an association. If he couldn't see it at this time, it would be stupid.
The flags were waving in the Jin army camp, and more than 10,000 soldiers stood side by side, with murderous auras soaring, without any laziness at all.
"The whole army will be dispatched to flatten Jinshan City!" Sima Ji waved his hand and asked He Long to lead the infantry out of the camp. Although the cavalry went first and increased the suddenness, the walls of Jinshan City were far from indestructible, but the cavalry did not do such things, and they should be prepared to keep a backup plan. What if the cavalry really couldn't capture it.
At this time, there were still ten miles of Jinshan City. Thousands of cavalry were ready to go, flags were flying, and swords and guns reflected a little cold light under the sunlight. The cavalry held their breath and stared at the direction of Jinshan City. The weapons in their hands were unconsciously clamped, and the war horses under them seemed to be affected by the atmosphere. There was nothing else except for accelerating and running.
The cavalry, led by Zhang Dalishan, ran towards the city wall. The rumbling sound of horse hooves shook the eardrums, and the sharpness of the weapons reflected the morning sunlight, which shocked the mind. Thousands of cavalry approached quickly, and there were already strange sounds heard by those with clever ears and eyes. Some Silla people outside the city were unclear, so they looked around with confusion, not knowing where this sound came from.
"This is the sound of horse hooves, and many horse hooves are combined together. What direction is it coming?" Some experienced Silla soldiers first came to their senses and quickly climbed up to the walls. Finally, dark figures appeared from the front of the horizon, and thousands of cavalry came chasing stars and stepping on the moon.
"Close the city gate quickly!" Just for a moment, the soldiers guarding the city wall couldn't help but hold the weapons in their hands, staring at the city with a nervous expression, and many soldiers even showed panic expressions.
It was the Jin army that attacked. If so, what about their king? Will it have been given to them by the Jin army...
Some quick-witted officers first thought of this and immediately wanted to send someone to notify the prince. If the king had already suffered an accident, only the prince could unite people's hearts at this time. When the city gate was closed, he believed that the cavalry would not fly to the top of the city.
Thinking of this, they were commanding to close the city gate and preparing to send people to the palace to report the news. But at this moment, the shouts of killing suddenly sounded, and in this direction there were nearly ten teams in the city gathered towards the Xicheng Gate from different directions. In fact, the Xicheng Gate was not the direction where the Jin army attacked, and the Jin army's cavalry actually came from the south.
This is what it means to attack the west. The position of the Jin army camp and the route of the cavalry rushing to the south. However, as long as the Silla people are not stupid, as long as they see the Jin army cavalry rushing to the west, they will immediately close the south gate, and the soldiers lurking in the city attack the west gate, because this is not an important defensive position. For the cavalry, it is not a difficult task to circle the city.
However, the Silla soldiers at the South City Gate didn't know this. Anyway, the cavalry could not attack the city, so this was what everyone thought. When the cavalry attacked, the city gate of the South City Gate was finally closed. After the city gate was closed, many Silla soldiers had a feeling of surviving the disaster.
The archers had already pulled the strings, waiting for the cavalry to approach the city wall. With excessive nerves, an archer loosened the tight bowstring towards the whistling cavalry, and the arrows rushed towards the city. Seeing this, the rest of the archers in the city shot without hesitation. Thousands of arrows pierced the open space under the city with dense arrows. Looking around, it was spectacular, and the cavalry was still a distance away from the attack range. After firing the arrows, the Silla soldiers on the city reacted and buzzed.
"Follow me to shoot three times and go straight to the west gate!" Li Shan, who was standing on the horse, shouted with his neck. Although he couldn't go far, because he was rushing in the front, as long as he led the hundreds of cavalrymen in the front to act, the cavalry behind him would naturally follow the example. The Central Plains bows used by the Jin army occupied the range and rate of fire, and the bows and arrows used by the Silla people were similar to those of the Jurchens. As long as the distance was right, even the cavalry would not suffer any loss.
The galloping cavalry had already taken the longbow from one side of the war horse, put the bow on the arrow, and pulled the strings. The arrows were like meteors, heading towards the city wall. The dense arrows were like dark clouds, instantly covering the city wall. The cavalry's equipment was full of strong bows. With the help of the war horses, only a small number of arrows did not have a wall.
Infantry and cavalry shooting themselves have the advantage, especially when archers have sufficient protection. If the Jin army is against the Jin army and the Silla army against the Silla army, this calculation is all true. However, the Jin army is not like this when facing the Silla army, because the bows and arrows used by the two armies pursue different performances.
In this situation of mental calculation and unintentionality, the Silla archers who thought they were possessed by their barriers did not even hide, and paid a heavy price for their empirical idea of killing people. Hundreds of people were immediately caught in the arrow and were killed.
Only three rounds of arrow rain took away the lives of five or six hundred Silla soldiers, greatly weakening the momentum of the defenders in the city, while none of the Jin cavalry lost. At this time, they were affected by the sound of killing in the south city gate, and everyone's attention was here, and the West City Gate had been fighting for a long time.
More than a dozen teams disguised themselves as people stayed not far from the Xicheng Gate, hiding their weapons aside, and kept paying close attention to the surrounding situation. When news came from the South City Gate, these people knew that it was time to reveal their true colors and launched an assault on the Xicheng Gate. The unprepared Silla soldiers almost immediately became dead souls under the sword.
Everyone showed their hideous side without hesitation. If they could not take down the city gate in the city, the Silla people realized that they could not survive and would become successful if they failed. The fact is so cruel.
In a hurry, the Silla soldiers guarding the gate showed a defeat and struggled to support them. But no one knew how long they could last. This was a time of hard work. The lurking Jin soldiers had never been so powerful. Almost all of them were like wolves and tigers. A team did not entangle with the Silla soldiers. They headed straight to the city gate, killed several Silla soldiers, and wanted to open the city gate.
Zhang Dalishan outside the city led the Jin cavalry without any nostalgia and launched the fourth round of arrow rain, and then went straight to the Xicheng Gate around the city wall. At this time, the Silla defenders felt something was wrong, and the Silla defenders at the Xicheng Gate had already turned into corpses and were too late. When the cavalry army arrived at the Xicheng Gate, the fall of Jinshan City was already destined.
