Close the Door and Beat the Dog (GMDTG)
Chapter 960:Close the Door and Beat the Dog (GMDTG)
Seeing the opening of the East Gate of Jizhou, Shi Qingyan was first a stay, and even a feeling of some shame in his heart.Because he knew very well that this important military town was completely lost because of his persuasion, and once the city fell, the people and sergeants in the city were ultimately a result.
If they are killed in the city and slaughtered, they will become true sinners.But soon, he adjusted his mentality, firmly telling himself that he was also forced to help, and he did not know whether the Tatar would keep his promise.
Compared with the thornyness of Shi Qingyan, those people's reactions are much faster.At that time, one by one they showed the color of ecstasy, and the people behind them were even more under the command of Tulagu, and they rushed towards the city gate, looking as if they were afraid that the other party would suddenly regret and close the city gate again.
Only in the blink of an eye, there are hundreds of people you squeezed me into the city gate, but instead rushed to the side of the stone.At this time, he suddenly remembered that it was not time to feel, there were still a few concubines in his own family, and if the Tartars were really plundered and killed in the city, they had to protect them by themselves.At once, he also immediately plucked up the courage and rushed into the east gate with all his strength with those who were Mongolian.
And when he passed through the city gate hole, he suddenly remembered something, he remembered that there was actually a heavy gate at the entrance to the city, if the garrison suddenly put down the gate, I am afraid that it would not be good to die.But this was only a re-thought, because soon he had also rushed out of the city gate with the Mongolians and came to the urn city between the inner city and the city gate.
As one of the northern towns, in just in case, this Jizhou city is naturally heavily defensive, and the urn city outside the inner city is its last line of defense.If the outer city can not be supported and broken by the enemy, the defenders can also retreat to the rear, relying on the inner city walls and the enemy to carry out the next round of attack.
Although the inner city wall looks much lower than the outer city, it is also five or six feet high, but whether the city wall is strong or tilted outward angle is still the same as the outer city.Without all kinds of siege equipment, these three thousand horses can not be killed from here with their bare hands.
At this time, the inner city gate in front of them was closed, so that the three thousand Mongol armies could only stay in the city, but they could not go further.This made the Mongolians feel a little strange, and Tulagu immediately looked at the slightly confused stone man: "What's the matter?"
“I... I asked them.”Although there was a little doubt in his heart, Shi Qingyan still rushed above and shouted: "Du Zhong, why didn't you open the inner city gate together?"
Soon, Du Zhong's voice came from above: "General Stone, the last moment will be forgotten, please wait a moment, I will let them open the city gate."Then there was no sound.
Listening to him so, whether it is Shi Qingyan or Tulagu's heart is a little looser, because after he said so, the east door was really opened, and I thought that soon the inner door that went straight to the city would also be opened.
But then there was a period of silence, and the city gate was still closed, and there was no meaning that half of it would be opened.This called Tulagu finally a little doubtful: "What are they doing on it, opening a gate, it takes so long?"
As he spoke, he suddenly heard a rattle of the rattle, which made the masked people happy, thinking that this was a precursor to the inner door being about to be opened.Only Shi Qingyan's face suddenly changed, no, he also guarded the east gate, it is very clear that the inner door does not need to open, driven by noose, only ... the city gate there is a pound of the gate!
“Quick, get out of here!”Shi Qingyan woke up and immediately shouted a word, and at the same time he had quickly turned around and strode to the city gate.
His act made the people feel strange and did not understand what he was afraid of, but Tulagu subconsciously followed the command: "Leave the city first."Whether you can enter the city smoothly or second, no big mistake is the first.
But this time, they were slow.When the noose began to move, the jackstick had fallen quickly, but it was not the stone blueyan they could run.Just a few steps before he snatched the door of the city, he saw a heavy iron cast gate with a whirling sound, and finally hit the ground heavily, shaking the ground.At this time, the inner and outer gates of communication in front of him had completely disappeared from the front.
The other blindfolds were still there, and the other blindfolders were still there.Subsequently, everyone's face changed greatly, and while quickly turning back, he had pulled out his weapon and made a defensive posture.These people, even if their minds are simple, it is not good to know that the other party has introduced themselves into the city behind the scenes.
At this time, the defenders in the city were also under a cold command in Du Zhong, suddenly exposed from the city, and a row of arrows flew away with a whistling wind to the enemy below.
When Lu Wei had a clear understanding of the urban defense structure of this city, there was such an idea of closing the door and beating the dog.Just because the inner city wall is far less tall than the outer city, it is not easy to put forward this strategy.
But just now, when he was hiding in the city, he saw that most of the Mongolians who came with the stone Qingyan were stepping, and all of them were not equipped with corresponding siege equipment, he decided to lure the enemy into the city and then this trick to close the door and hit the dog.In fact, it is no wonder that people did not prepare accordingly, originally they just tried to make Shi Qingyan call the city gate, if not open, there is no meaning of attacking the West Gate.But in this way, the Mongolians trapped in the eastern gate urn city were killed.
In such a small area, there are Ming Army on both sides of the front is constantly projecting arrows and wood stones and other objects, so that they can not find out where they can even hide, can only be passively beaten, only for a while, there have been hundreds of Meng soldiers buried here, and this number is still rising.
You know, this army that came to the city with Shi Qingyan is the elite of the people, and such a continuous killing is unacceptable to anyone, which makes Tulagu really angry and can not tear down the walls.
No matter which wall before and after, they can't destroy it with their bare hands.And the wall that is mixed with glutinous rice juice with rammed soil can't even leave any traces of knife and gun, and it is impossible for them to destroy it at will.
At this time, seeing that some of the Mongolians were shooting arrows to the city, Lu Wei immediately commanded: "Quick, smash the fire oil tank that had just been concentrated for me, let's attack with fire!"
It turned out that the previous silence was because the defenders were still carrying various weapons to the inner city wall.Now after Lu Wei's command, the generals immediately put up a jar and smashed it against the enemy under the city, and even if the other party could flash in time, there would be a lot of fire oil on the body.
After smashing the hundreds of tanks of fire oil prepared, someone immediately projected the fire rocket down the city.At the end of the time, the fire below was big, and the people were screaming and running around.But in this small area of the city, they simply can not hide where, panicked people can only trample on themselves, and constantly ignite their own people, so that the fire will burn more and more.And because there is no water here, they can't even take the way to save themselves.
Seeing the companions around him constantly screaming and falling down, his family could not even kill a Ming army, and the anger in Tulagu's heart was not to mention, and in the end, he could only grab the same as dead ash: "... said, this is not your early design, deliberately let you lead us into this trap!"When he said this, he had raised his knife in his hand, and it seemed that he could cut off the other party at any time.
I had no idea how to feel the threat, so I quickly called back to God: "I... I don't know, someone must have guessed that I would help you open the city gate, so I will set this game."It must be so...”
How he could argue, the other party could no longer believe what he said.Tulagu was furious, the knife was swung suddenly, and now only by killing this suspicious fellow could offset his hatred.
"No," the threat of life so that the courage of stone Qingyan was suddenly strong, and he pushed Tulagu back and forth.At the same time, a sharp arrow came from behind, and although the unstable Tulagu tried to dodge, he was still slow for half a shot, and the arrow passed through his neck at once, so that he could not even utter a scream, and fell down.
Seeing this result, Shi Qingyan's face changed greatly, subconsciously called out: "No wonder I..." and hurried to the side.
Fortunately, at this time, the Mongolian people did not have enough time to protect themselves, and no one actually came to kill him for revenge, so that Shi Qingyan could escape his life for a while.
However, the attack above continued, and as time went on, fewer and fewer people could stand in the city.In this area, it has been covered with the bodies of the Mongolian people, a killing, three thousand Mongolians and 80 Chengdu people have died here, less than two or three hundred people stand by the wall, temporarily let the Ming army attack them, but one by one have lost the courage to resist.
Du Zhong in the city saw this, his face was full of smiles.This battle has destroyed thousands of enemies, and its own casualties are almost negligible, which is really a rare disaster in the past few years.And he saw that the morale of the soldiers had reached its peak, and immediately ordered: "Open the inner city gate, kill out and take all these Tatars!"
