At the end of October of the second year of Jianwu in the Song Dynasty, Chuzhou City on the East Road of Huainan, Song Dynasty.

The weather is clear on this day, and the light blue sky is like a picture of clean velvet, inlaid with yellow gold edges. The sky is clear and green, spotless, and the distant mountains are covered with darkness, and the gentle wind brings warmth.

The scenery is extremely beautiful and quiet, but the Chuzhou style will soon be replaced by bloody and cruelty.

"Bang...bang...bang...bang..."

"Woo...woo...woo...woo..."

"Kill! Kill!"

"The military supervisor has an order, and we will definitely conquer Chuzhou today!"

"Those who retreat will be killed without mercy!"

At this moment, the drums and whistles were loudly heard, and countless Jin soldiers were carrying fire ladders, cloud ladders, hitting rods, and pushing the side bridges, goose cars, caves, tower cars, opposite buildings and other countless siege weapons, shouting loudly, and killing towards the towering Chuzhou city.

In addition to the city of Chuzhou, the Jin army also had more than forty stone cannons, or catapults, and kept throwing stones at the city of Chuzhou.

Chuzhou has Lianshui in the north, Baoying in the south, Huaiyin in the west, Yancheng in the east, and is also connected to Hongze Lake. It is a place of entry and exit in the lower reaches of the Huai River. In addition, there are many river and lakes such as Qinghe, Laoguanhe, Xinhe, and Sheyang Lake in Chuzhou, so Chuzhou is densely populated with rivers and rivers. The innate river canal advantages make Chuzhou's water transportation quite developed, and serves as a hub connecting the Bianhe River and the Huaiyang Canal.

Chuzhou is connected to Haizhou in the north, Huaiyang army in the south, Taizhou in the south, Gaoyou army in the west, Sizhou in the west, Zhaoxin army in the east, and Dahai in the east, which is far away from Yangzhou on Huainan East Road.

Chuzhou is a place that must be fought for by military strategists, and there must be no mistakes. Once Chuzhou is captured by the Jin army, the Song Dynasty will not only be cut off from the north and south transportation, but the Jin army will also go south without any worries and bribe the left and right, and strive to attack the Emperor of the Song Dynasty in Jiankang Prefecture.

Although Li Sanjian once ordered that there was no need to care about the gains and losses of a city and a place, it did not mean that he wanted to give up Chuzhou. Not only that, Li Sanjian also issued a strict order to Yue Fei, and he would do whatever it takes to defend the city of Chuzhou at all costs.

Li Sanjian would rather give up Yangzhou than Chuzhou.

If Chuzhou is present, it will make the Jin army look like a ray of light on its back and a thorn in its throat, and Chuzhou is back against the sea, so it will be easier to get reinforcements from the Wuwei Zhoushi of the Song Dynasty. In addition, Chuzhou is like the right arm of the Song Dynasty. If the right arm is broken, then a big deal will be gone.

The commander of the Jin army's Eastern Route Army and the marshal supervisor Wanyan Zongbi also understood the key point. Therefore, after capturing Sizhou, he quickly led his troops eastward to capture the city of Chuzhou.

However, although Chuzhou was flat, the rivers were crisscrossing, which was not conducive to the development of cavalry, making the Jin army extremely slow. Moreover, Yue Fei's Shenwu Left Army and Hua Rong's Wushe Army used the terrain, terrain and waterways of Chuzhou to continuously attack and harass the Jin army, causing the Jin army to be anxious and suffer heavy losses.

Wanyan Zongbi led his army to capture Sizhou in September, and finally attacked the city of Chuzhou in October. However, the Jin army besieged the city and attacked the city for more than a month, and the city of Chuzhou was still in the hands of the Song army and was still as solid as a god.

At this moment, Wanyan Zonghan's troops had marched towards Jiankang and Zhenjiang, but Wanyan Zongbi's troops were trapped in Chuzhou. They could not capture Chuzhou, and they did not dare to rashly continue to march southward.

At this time, Wanyan Zongbi was really like a ray of light on his back and a thorn in his throat. He was so angry that he was as angry as thunder, but he was helpless.

Therefore, today's Wanyan Zong

Bi issued a strict order and must conquer the city of Chuzhou.

More than forty stone catapults erected outside Chuzhou City were constantly throwing stones near the Chuzhou City Wall.

Countless large stones flew in the air, making a "whirr" sound, and with huge kinetic energy, they smashed hard near the city wall, smashing the city wall one by one; hitting the ground, forming one deep pit after another, and dust spreading overwhelming; huge rocks hit people around them, and the Song army was smashed to fly backwards.

But you have Zhang Liang's plan, I have a wall ladder! Chuzhou defense envoy, Shenwu Left Army of the Song Dynasty Black Flag Army, and Yue Fei, the chief general of Chuzhou, have already asked someone to set up a virtual fence in advance, and a chaff bag is placed on the trough below. Even if it is broken, it can be repaired immediately. In this way, most of the Song army guarding the city can be protected from the damage of throwing stones.

The Jin army had scattering machines, and of course the Song army in Chuzhou also had them. Moreover, the scattering machines of the Song army were farther than the Jin army's throwing distance, and the stones were thrown larger and heavier, and the throwing accuracy was far better than the scattering machines of the Jin army. The Song army's scattering machines not only shot stones, but also shot fireballs.

In terms of craftsman production craftsmanship, no craftsman in this world can compare to Song.

The huge stones and fireballs thrown by the Song army's catapult flew into the air, like meteors, and then fell down "huh" and smashed the Jin army into a dense crowd of attacks, smashing the Jin army into blood and howling.

The stones smashed the Jin army to pieces, and the flesh was blurred, while the fireballs thrown by the Song army were even more powerful and scattered.

The fireball thrown by the Song army was called "poisonous fireworks ball". It was to pound all the raw materials into a ball, use a hemp rope that was 1,2 feet long and half of half of weight to pass through the medicine ball into a string, and then 12 taels of thick waste paper, 10 taels of hemp skin, 2 taels of asphalt, 2 taels of yellow worm kudzu, 1 taels of yellow dan, 1 taels of charcoal powder, and 3 blocked charcoal, and pounded and passed on outside the ball.

Poisonous fireballs can be thrown with a catapult or fired with a crossbow. They are extremely powerful, but the defense battle in Chuzhou did not use the sharpest Ye Lei of the Black Flag Army.

In addition to shooting stones, the Jin army's catapults also kept shooting fireballs, causing considerable damage to the Song army and a lot of damage, but compared with Song, it was far from that of Song.

The poisonous fireballs shot from the city walls of Chuzhou smashed into the crowd attacked by the Jin army, and flames suddenly ignited everywhere, and at the same time, yellow smoke rose. Looking down at the wilderness before the city of Chuzhou, it was like a yellow tornado rising from the wilderness, sweeping the Jin army and harvesting lives.

The poisonous fireball fell to the ground and spread out, burning to death, and burning many Jin soldiers. What's even more terrifying is the yellow poisonous smoke. As long as the Jin army inhales poisonous smoke, it will bleeding from the mouth and nose, foam in the mouth, and fall to the ground. Even if it doesn't die for a while, it will foam in the mouth and stutter on the ground, and the rest will be to survive.

The poisonous fireball has great lethality. In the dense attack crowd of Jin army, one gap after another was torn apart, and the gaps were bleeding from the mouth and nose, black-faced corpses or struggling human bodies, countless corpses and wriggling human bodies, which made people's scalp numb.

The Jin army suffered heavy losses, but even so, the Jin army still shouted loudly and gradually approached the city of Chuzhou without regard to the casualties. However, the rivers of Chuzhou were crisscrossed. Although the city of Chuzhou was a flat ground before, there were many ponds, streams, etc., and the roads were extremely muddy, and the water was shallow and there was no big problem for people to pass by. Some heavy sieges were siege.

Arsads, such as side bridges, goose cars, caves, tower cars, and other heavy siege weapons. If you pass some ponds, streams, etc., you may need to take a detour or lay wooden boards. In this way, the propulsion speed will be slow. If you advance slowly, you will be hit harder by the Song army in Chuzhou. Not to mention the loss of personnel, some heavy siege weapons were destroyed halfway before they could be pushed to the city.

In desperation, the Jin army had no choice but to fight back with a catapult, desperately suppressing the Song army's catapult, while causing countless cavalry to rush to the moat of Chuzhou and shoot arrowheads into the city to cover the Jin army's large group of troops to attack the city.

Stones, fireballs, arrowheads, etc. are flying all over the sky, densely packed, blocking the sunlight, as if a cloud suddenly appeared in the sky. In the clouds, there are killing sounds, bloody corpses, broken weapons, arrowheads inserted on the walls, etc.

After countless casualties, the Jin army finally pushed the cave into the Chuzhou moat.

The so-called cave, also known as the cave house, is a siege armour that is equipped with wheels, giant trees on top, cowhides wrapped around the outside, and a whole house-shaped siege armour. Inside the cave house is firewood and firewood used to fill the trenches, and the Jin soldiers can also hide in the cave house to avoid attacks such as Song army bows and stones.

The purpose of the cave house was to fill the moat moat, which caused the Song army to attack stones, poisonous fireballs, and arrowheads, but the effect was not great. After destroying several cave houses, the Jin army filled the moat moat moat moat moat.

With a loud "bang", after the Jin army filled the moat, countless cloud ladders with iron hooks at the top were mounted on the city wall. The sharp iron hooks tightly hooked the city wall. Some cloud ladders even hooked the Song army fighting on the city, and tightly fixed the people and the ladders on the city wall. The cloud ladders were extremely strong and generally swords could not be cut off. They needed to be chopped with heavy axes, but the premise was not to be shot to death by the Jin army's rainy arrowheads.

"Kill! Kill!"

"The first person to climb the city will be given a thousand households and a thousand taels of gold!"

The so-called heavy rewards must be followed by brave men. Countless brave Jin army dead soldiers have already held sharp swords on their mouths and climbed the ladders with their hands. They have already begun to climb the city. Some Jin army has even jumped onto the city wall. If the Song army does not kill or drive down the Jin army that climbed the city of Chuzhou, then the Jin army will rush forward and the city of Chuzhou will be broken.

When the Jin army saw someone climbing the city wall, the drums were getting louder and faster, urging the Jin army to climb the city.

The situation has reached a critical situation.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Yue Fei, the chief general of Chuzhou, took off his helmet and put it on the ground. Then he took off his armor, exposed his left arm, stabbed his left arm with a short blade, and shouted at the Song army in Chuzhou: "We should serve the country with loyalty and righteousness, establish fame, write bamboo and silk, and die for immortality! The barbarians invaded the territory, killed my children, plundered my property, and destroyed my homeland. We should refuse it with death! Today's affairs are just death!"

After Yue Fei said that, he carried a long-handled sharp blade and rushed towards the Jin army that had climbed the city wall.

"Swear to kill the enemy to death and never surrender!"

"We are willing to follow Yue Pengju to kill the enemy!"

"Swear to kill the enemy to death, why fear death?"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Chapter completed!
