Chapter 342

At this time, outside the south gate, facing the soft and mild sunshine in the morning, on the west side of Houjin camp, there were thousands of horses, mules, cattle, sheep and livestock gathering towards Houjin camp.

Originally lonely on the empty snow, but at this time it became like a vegetable market.

Even if the Ming army town is two and a half miles away, you can still hear the loud shouts of people and the roaring and wailing of livestock.

On the head of the city, the generals also rushed to watch the situation on the opposite side.

Shu LUOHUAN was very familiar with the tribal forces here. After looking at it for a while, he counted the flags. He was busy reporting to Li yuanqinghui: "master, this should be the tribal reinforcements of the later Jin Dynasty. There are more than 2000 people in Yehe tribe, more than 1000 Mongolians, and more than 1000 people in the western part of the sea, and there should be less than 1000 savages and Beishan. It's about 5000 people. "

Next to him, Duan Xiliang couldn't help sneering, "dog tartar, good to come! After more than a month's leisure, the children are worried that they have no place to move around. "

Kong Youde was also very excited. He laughed, "dog Tartars still don't have a long memory! This is looking for someone to be a meat shield

"What about looking for meat shield? Are we afraid of these Tartars? Kill one Laozi, kill two Laozi! Ha ha

"You are right! More than 20000 dog Tartars are looking for reinforcements. They are guilty

“……”

The weather is too early for them to endure the storm.

However, Xu Heizi was extremely calm. He was old and had more considerations. He reported to Li yuanqinghui in a low voice: "general, it must be a great benefit for Tartars to recruit these tribes here. They must be well prepared. We must be on guard

Li Yuanqing nodded lightly.

After fighting with Houjin for so long, he was already very familiar with the fighting style of Houjin.

They were born in the mountains and rivers. They also had a strong characteristic of slavery. In other words, they had the same character as wild animals.

Encounter weaker than them, they will like a hungry wolf, rushed forward, will tear the prey to pieces, would like to swallow the bone dregs.

But it's a completely different scene to encounter someone stronger than them, or to say, they can't take a bite, and can make them feel pain and stab their claws and teeth.

A battle with the wind.

According to the strength of the later Jin Dynasty at this time, it may be really invincible.

However, once the wind blows against them, these Tartars will disperse like mad dogs. They are not a dog at all.

However, at this time, the two sides have been deadlocked for more than a month. As the main force of the later Jin Dynasty came in a hurry, the consumption of food and rates must have been very high. In addition, due to the bad weather, their logistics supply lines must not be smooth. Those influential people in the Late Jin Dynasty certainly did not want to let the war drag on any longer.

"Strengthen the sentry and guard and consolidate the fortifications. This day has begun to warm up signs, you must not be half careless, we must firmly monitor the main trend of the later Jin Dynasty

Li Yuanqing glanced around and ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes The generals did not dare to neglect and kowtowed to each other.

However, although the slaves of the tribe have arrived, the establishment of these tribes is chaotic. It will take a few more days to integrate them.

Li Yuanqing also had enough time to continue to improve the fortifications in the city.

……

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed, and the time has come to the fifth day of February in the fourth year of Daming weather.

Early in the morning, there was movement in the direction of Houjin camp.

Several gates of the camp were opened, and tens of thousands of troops poured out of the camp and gathered in the distance, like a dark cloud blocking the sky and the sun.

Ahead, nearly a hundred cowhide chariots have been pushed forward.

It's only temporary for them to make hunting carts under the cold wind. It seems that they are only temporary in the cold wind.

At this time, the city of the Ming army was reinforced.

Although there are many inconveniences in the ice and snow days, it is very simple to perfect the fortifications because of the foundation of the city.

The simplest way is to add a layer of snow on the wall, sprinkle some sand, and pour cold water on it. In less than half an hour, the wall can be raised and thickened by more than half a meter. Moreover, it is extremely strong. With sand and soil, it can also prevent slipping and prevent children from slipping on it.

The walls of the Ming army are very wide and thick, and the foundation is very solid. Now the longitudinal width has been expanded to nearly 30 steps, and the height has reached more than 15 meters.

Of course, such an ice city is after all a steal, far from comparable to the large cities in the Liao and Guannei.

The most direct point is that the ice is too brittle, and I am very afraid of the deterrence of gunpowder. In particular, once this kind of siege explosive bag of Changsheng camp is exploded, it is easy to cause collapse and trigger a chain reaction.

However, in this field, Houjin is still a blank paper, which is not enough to pose a fatal threat to the children of Changsheng camp.Li Yuanqing still firmly holds the initiative of guarding the city.

Soon, the Houjin army began to move. Almost two or three thousand clansmen, with their cowhide chariots, began to push towards the city under the cover of swordsmen and archers.

After them, there are about six or seven elite Niulu soldiers waiting in line. Looking at the flag, there are red flag, blue flag, white flag, red flag and blue flag. Among them, there are two Niulu with red flag and half with yellow flag. The number is nearly 3000.

"Dog Tartars are coming at last

On one side, Kong Youde spat fiercely, staring at the battle line of the later Jin Dynasty not far away, and his eyes showed a grim light.

Shunzi also rubbed his hands, and said with a smile: "good come! It's just to test the children's mode of bird shot these days. It's not so easy to think about it like last time

Before setting out from Changsheng Island, Li Yuanqing took ten craftsmen from the blacksmith's shop along with him, so that he could have a buffer space under such harsh terrain.

Last time, with Dudu's lesson, shunzi has not been idle these days. He has been drilling for a long time. How to keep the bird's blunderbuss powerful in this weather.

Looking at the shadow of Houjin, like a mole ant, from far to near, Li Yuanqing's heart relaxed instead.

It's like the darkness before dawn.

It is not terrible to attack the city in the later Jin Dynasty. Both Li Yuanqing and his children have already adapted to the intensity of the battle against the latter Jin Dynasty.

Both sides have been consuming as before. After all, this is not the native place of the long life camp, which will make the children suffer and even be unbearable.

"Let's follow the process! Don't let them push it so easily Li Yuanqing issued the order with a smile.

He also wanted to see what new tricks they would play this time.

With the order of Li Yuanqing, the leaders of the Changsheng camp will quickly return to their respective units for preparation.

Soon, the blunderbuss were in place, the long spearmen were in place, and the swordsmen and shields were in place.

Shuluohuan and the slaves of the tribe also went to the inner wall to stand by at any time, waiting for the arrival of the war.

Not far away, with the sun rising to a fraction of the eastern sky, about early nine o'clock, the vanguard slaves of Houjin had already pushed their cattle chariots to the bottom of the city 100 steps away.

Relying on the snow wall built by Dudu slaves, they strengthened and raised one after another, built new fortifications, and moved slowly towards the city.

Obviously, they were very familiar with the blunderbuss of the Ming army. The more they moved forward, the slower they were. They were always wandering outside the shooting range of the soldiers.

An hour later, around 11 o'clock, the fortifications in Houjin had reached 70 steps, dense and steady.

One by one, the cowhide chariots were pushed to the front to block them. The slaves piled snow behind the chariots and continued to move forward.

"General, do you want to open a gun?"

The bird and blunderbuss are the front line. Shunzi is by Li Yuanqing's side. He asks carefully.

Li Yuanqing shook his head slowly.

He has already seen that instead of being good, he wants to play steadily and gradually encroach on his own space. If you don't give him some good, I'm afraid it will be difficult to attract his main force.

"No hurry. Let's go to fifty steps. "

"Yes." Shunzi nodded quickly.

Soon, the Tartar's army of slaves had pushed the line fifty steps below the city.

Although the Ming army did not open fire on the top of the city, they were more cautious and almost never dared to appear behind the cowhide chariot.

Behind them, the elite main force of six or seven cattle records in the later Jin Dynasty also pushed to the back of the 100 step snow wall and stood by at any time.

The snow wall of Houjin was pushed closer and closer, and it was already within 50 steps.

Shunzi has been a little anxious, frequently looking at Li Yuanqing, waiting for Li Yuanqing's orders.

Li Yuanqing, however, did not slow down. He moved his neck slightly and made a "click" sound.

Daishan fought steadily, and the power of the blunderbuss was pushed to the extreme.

Although the city's reserve of bird's blunderbusses and bullets is still adequate, the firing now only consumes ammunition for no reason. It is very difficult to really strike these tartar slaves and slaves.

Li Yuanqing thought about it for a moment. He simply gave up the attack of the blunderbuss. He waved his hand to shunzi and said, "the blunderbuss retreated and the swords and shields came up. Let them come here

"Eh?"

Shunzi was stunned, but Li Yuanqing's order was in the war again. How dare he violate it? Busy Gong respectfully said that he was unwilling to order his soldiers to retreat.

Soon, the sword and shield soldiers came up to guard against the arrow rain attack of the Jin army, and the long spear soldiers were standing behind them.

The speed of the birdsong is a little faster, but the Tartars don't feel a little bit brave.

Relying on the steps that had been piled up in the Dudu department, they quickly stabilized and reinforced them and re connected the stairs.However, the city of the Ming army was raised again, and at the top of the ladder, someone had to come up and pile it up.

Shunzi couldn't help it, "general, let the soldiers of the bird's blunderbuss fight.". That's the distance to kill these dogs. "

The stairs were very slippery, just like a simple large slope, but these tartar slaves were not stupid. They broke the sand bags that had been prepared, covered them with snow and scattered sand.

In this way, soon, about a few minutes, the sand will be frozen on the snow layer, will not slip.

Dozens of Tartars pushed several cowhide chariots to the slope, and the slaves behind them continued to make snow, trying to connect the top of the stairs with the head of the city.

It was about 12:00 p.m., and the cowhide chariot had been pushed under the eyes of the Ming army. However, Li Yuanqing's mouth showed a light smile. He turned to shunzi and said, "the blunderbuss stand behind the long spearmen and wait for them to come up and fight again!"
