Chapter 869 Although Xiao Chong had strengthened Ningding's city defenses, he never dreamed that the spearhead of the three-way local army and the directly subordinate army of the Wind Country was pointed at Ningding, where he was.
On the second day after the Zhen army occupied Ningding, Tang Yin ordered Tianyan and Diwang to send orders to the three local armies respectively, all of which converged in the direction of Ningding, and at the same time, the directly subordinate army also went north from Jinyang to cooperate with the three local armies to besiege Ningding.
The eyeliner of the Chuanzhen coalition army has long been densely spread around Jinyang, and the slightest disturbance in Jinyang can't hide the ears and eyes of the Chuanzhen coalition army, not to mention that at this time, it is still a direct army with a force of 100,000 troops.
The spies of the Chuanzhen coalition army saw that a large group of men and horses were leaving the city in Jinyang, and they did not dare to delay, and hurriedly transmitted the news back to the camp.
Hearing this, Ren was shocked, the total number of wind troops in Jinyang City did not exceed 200,000, and 100,000 people went out of the city at once, so now there are at most 100,000 wind troops left in Jinyang City, this is a good opportunity for their own side to attack on a large scale Ren Fang immediately summoned the generals of the two armies to explain the situation.
After hearing this, everyone looked up and laughed and said, "This must be because the Feng army heard that the three cities of Songqiu, Ningding, and Taifeng were occupied by our army, so they hurried to the rescue.
"That's right, but our army has 50,000 soldiers stationed in each of the three cities, and the Feng army only has 100,000 people, even if they all go to attack one city, there is no possibility of defeating."
The generals of the two armies of Chuanzhen were full of confidence, of course, it was indeed difficult to succeed in attacking a city of 50,000 people with 100,000 men, but what they didn't know was that there were three local armies of tens of thousands of people on the Feng army.
Ren Fang was also unaware of the existence of these three local armies, and the spies did not send back the corresponding information, no matter how shrewd he was, it was impossible for him to be unpredictable.
He smiled slightly and said, "Since the Wind Army has divided its troops to rescue, then let them rescue it, for us, this is a great opportunity to break through Jinyang."
I have decided to attack the city tomorrow, and I don't know what the generals think."
None of the generals objected, and they said in unison: "Just do it according to the general's will, and our army will attack the city tomorrow."
Without further discussion, Ren Fang and his generals decided to attack Jinyang.
There was nothing to say that day, and the next morning, the Chuanzhen coalition army sounded the horn of attack.
The armies of the two countries walked out of the camp in a neat phalanx and pressed straight towards Jinyang in front.
This time, Ren Fang has been ruthless, he must take this opportunity to take Jinyang in one go, and when he sent troops, he also had no reservations, and used all the troops he could use, and the total strength of the siege reached 500,000 people.
Since the outer city of Jinyang has been destroyed a lot by heavy stone throwers, the Sichuan Zhen coalition army is also very smooth, and it is less than two miles away from the inner city of Jinyang in one breath.
At this point, the heavy stone throwers no longer advanced, and the soldiers of the two armies fixed the stone throwers one by one, aimed them at the Jinyang city wall, and prepared to throw stone bullets.
The tactics of the Chuanzhen coalition army, the wind army had already understood it as early as when it was overpowering, and when they saw the other party attacking in a big way, before they could make a move, the soldiers of the wind army had already run down the city wall and hid under the base of the wall.
Sure enough, not long after the wind army got off the city wall, the heavy stone throwers of the Sichuan country began to start in unison, and huge stone bullets fell from the sky with a whistling sound of breaking wind, smashing on the city wall, rumbling, the wall trembled, and even the ground was shocked by it, and kept shaking.
However, the Wind Army is no longer as fearful as it was when they were in the Hegemony, and the stone bullets are insignificant compared to the corpses that carry the plague at them.
People squatted under the walls, listening to the occasional roar above their heads, and although they did not look calm, there was no fear on their faces.
What made the soldiers of the Wind Army feel even more reassuring was that now the Wind King Tang Yin was among them.
Tang Yin did not wear a royal robe, but changed into a military uniform, a simple silver helmet and silver armor, although not gorgeous, but very light, will not hinder his agile skills.
Now the soldiers who stayed in Jinyang are basically the new army, and Tang Yin is also worried that the new army's fighting spirit is not strong, and its combat strength is weak, and it will be defeated by the enemy at one blow, so at this time he must personally go into battle and fight side by side with the soldiers of the new army, and only in this way can the morale of the new army be boosted to the greatest extent.
Around Tang Yin, there were Shangguan Yuanwu, Yuan Biao, Ah San, Ah Si, these guards, in addition, Jiang Fan, Cheng Jin, and Nanye generals were also near him, and they didn't dare to stay away from half a step.
Listening to the sound of stone bullets smashing against the city wall gradually weakened, replaced by the continuous sound of heavy footsteps, Tang Yin didn't have to go up to the city to watch Tang Yin knew that it was the enemy's siege troops coming up.
He cheered up, straightened his body, looked around at the soldiers around him, and shouted in a deep voice: "The enemy army has begun to attack the city, brothers, follow me to the city wall to meet the battle" "It's the King" The officers and men of the new army shouted in unison.
Rolling logs, stones, and other objects piled up under the city walls were carried to the top of the city, and then the archers took their positions, twisted their bows and arrows, and aimed their edges at the enemy phalanx outside the city.
Looking out from the city, the momentum of the Chuanzhen coalition army is also terrifying enough.
The first batch of troops to attack the city was enough to have as many as ten corps, and the 100,000-strong phalanx was divided into two rows in front and back, and they moved forward in unison.
Looking back again, it is the main army of the Sichuan-Zhen coalition army, they stand on the edge of the outer city of Jinyang, as far as the eye can see, the crowds are surging, overwhelming, countless counts, and there is no edge in sight.
There is no need to do anything, the strength of the Chuanzhen Coalition Army alone is enough to make any opponent frightened.
Even if Tang Yin personally went into battle, seeing the posture of the Chuanzhen coalition army, the morale of the Feng army was still half a head shorter.
Tang Yin understood the psychology of the soldiers of the new army, watching the enemy army get closer and closer to the city wall, he shouted loudly: "Brothers of the new army, listen, this is the battle, you are not fighting for me, you are fighting for yourself, only by holding the city, everyone can save their lives, once the city is broken, none of you can escape, all of you will die at the hands of the enemy, this battle, our army only has the enemy, must not take half a step back, if you still want to go home alive and reunite with your relatives, then give me the momentum to come out, kill all the enemies who come to attack, let the enemy understand, There is no weak brigade in our wind army" Tang Yin's words inspired the soldiers of the New Army to survive, and at the same time, it also made people feel a kind of warmth, the king did not regard his Ning people as outsiders, but as part of the Feng Army, which made the soldiers of the New Army regain their sense of belonging.
"Wind, Wind, Wind" The morale of the officers and men of the new army was raised, and they shouted in unison, this was the first time they shouted the name of the country of wind.
Seeing this, Tang Yin took a deep breath, turned around, stared at the enemy troops outside the city, and silently calculated the distance in his heart.
When the Sichuan Zhen coalition army was less than 100 steps away from the city wall, Tang Yin drew a single knife, waved it outward, and shouted: "Release the arrow" "Arrows and arrows" His orders were conveyed by the generals of the new army one by one, after a pause, and then with a buzz, ten thousand arrows were fired at the head of Jinyang City, as if a cloud of black smoke rose in the sky, flew into the air, and then drew an arc, roaring to the ground in the camp of the Sichuan Zhen coalition army.
The soldiers of the Kawazhen coalition were advancing forward, and before many of them could react, they were shot in the head and chest by arrows continuously, and they fell to the ground on their backs.
I saw that the camp of the Chuanzhen coalition army was originally neat and uniform, but after a round of arrow rain, the camp in front had become a sieve, full of holes, and there were vacancies left by casualties everywhere.
The new army may not be good at hand-to-hand combat, but the arrow shooting is absolutely first-class, at this time on the city wall, condescending and powerful, the power is doubled, even if the Sichuan Zhen coalition army can not fully parry even if the shield is raised, and when moving forward, there are still people who fall to the ground from time to time.
The corps at the front suffered heavy casualties, but the overall formation of the Kawazhen coalition army was still forward.
When the enemy army was fifty paces away from the city wall, Tang Yin ordered to use the city-breaking crossbow and the army-breaking crossbow, without aiming, just shooting at the enemy's formation.
The range of the city-breaking crossbow and the army-breaking crossbow was originally much farther than the bow and arrow, but now that the enemy army is less than fifty steps away from the city wall, the crossbow arrow penetrates the crowd, and the power is naturally greater.
A crossbow bolt shot into the camp of the Kawazhen coalition could pierce a column of people until the bolt was nailed to the ground.

Fortunately, most of the city-breaking crossbows and army-breaking crossbows in the Wind Army were damaged during the Battle of Baguan, otherwise the lethality brought to the Chuanzhen coalition army would be immeasurable.
The Chuanzhen coalition army of ten corps, despite the rain of arrows and crossbow arrows flying down from their heads, rushed to the bottom of Jinyang City.
This is only a distance of 100 paces, but it cost the Chuanzhen coalition army more than 10,000 casualties.
When the Sichuan Zhen coalition army reached the city wall, the morale also rose to the peak, people set up cloud ladders, and climbed to the city with all their might.
At this point in the battle, the Zhen army took on the main task of attacking the city.
First, the Zhenjun has a fierce fighting style and is good at attacking the city, and second, the armor of the Zhenjun is light and suitable for quickly climbing the ladder.
The Zhen army was in front, the Sichuan army was in the back, and the people were lined up in several rows to shoot at the wind army in the city.
The red-eyed Zhen army was very ferocious, regardless of rushing up to kill, plus Jinyang is a small city, and the city wall is not high, even if Tang Yin personally commands the battle at the head of the city on the side of the wind army, it is still difficult to resist.
Soon, there were several places in the city that were broken through by the Zhen army, Tang Yin saw this, and immediately sent the generals around him out, and where the enemy broke through, he went to the top.
As the fighting between the two sides intensified, Tang Yin had fewer and fewer generals around him, and in the end, even Shangguan Yuanwu, Shangguan Yuanbiao, Ah San, Ah Si, these personal escorts were sent out by him.
Even so, the form of the Wind Army is still precarious, there are dangers everywhere, and there are emergencies everywhere.
This is only the vanguard siege force of the enemy's 100,000 people, if the enemy's brigade is also killed, can Jinyang still be able to keep it Thinking of this, Tang Yin was in a hurry, it was not a way to go on like this.
While he was pondering what to do, an arrow suddenly flew from under the city, from the bottom up, straight to his eyebrows
