Chapter 500: Artillery Fire Superiority


The arrogance that Song Jun has cultivated in the past ten years has made them unwilling to retreat at a moment.Even if it is death, it is not enough to kill one, and it is necessary to bite off the ear of the second person.The Song army, which was close to the Japanese people, did not collapse with one touch as imagined, but became more and more courageous the more they fought.The courage to fight to the death made them overwhelm the momentum of the Japanese people for a while.There was a gap between the Japanese and the Song people in stature, but now they were counterattacked by the Song army like this, and they were a little unable to resist.The smile on the face of Fujiwara Sato slowly disappeared, and he watched as the Japanese who had climbed the castle wall were forced back step by step.Fujiwara Ichishin, who was on the side, saw that Fujiwara's face began to become ugly, and immediately said, "General, let me take my headquarters with you." ”After pondering for a while, Fujiwara said: "Aomori Castle must be taken as soon as possible, Fujiwara Isshin, you go." ”"Yes, General."

After receiving the order, Fujiwara Isshin rode his pony and led his close samurai to rush out, and in a short time they came to the position of the Overseer, and then blew the horn.On the city wall, the Japanese soldiers who had already retreated a little heard this voice, looked back in fear one by one, and then charged forward.This horn sound is the horn of the Fujiwara family, and when I think of this voice, it means that the Fujiwara family is going to fight to the death, and now, the people who lead them are the people of the Fujiwara family, and they are the same, take a step back, and anyone around him can behead him and treat his head as a military achievement.With no way out, the widows rushed forward like crazy.Now, they have only one way to kill all the Song troops.For the Song army, it is also necessary to kill all these Japanese people, otherwise if Aomori is lost, the Japanese army will face the harbor.For a time, neither side took a step back.A Song soldier fell, leaving his life in this strange land.There were more and more Japanese people who climbed the city wall, and the Song army gradually could not support it, and several sections of the city wall were occupied by the Japanese people.In Aomori City, Liu Shiji has changed his official uniform into armor, and at this time there is no distinction between civilian and military generals, everyone is a soldier defending the city, with their own personal soldiers, ready to support the city wall at any time.A steady stream of Japanese soldiers climbed the city wall, and the Song army lost the initiative on the city wall.Wu Donglai gasped for breath, he and his sergeants were brave enough, but they still couldn't stop the Japanese from coming up one by one.The walls are slowly falling.The city gate was also breached by the Japanese army, and the Song army below also dropped their muskets and fought in close quarters, but the Japanese people were outnumbered and desperate, and after the battle, they finally occupied the city gate and poured into Aomori Castle.Fujiwara Satoto's eyes showed the joy of victory and ordered the army to enter the castle.Tens of thousands of Japanese entered Aomori Castle through the gates.Wu Donglai on the city wall brandished his broadsword, while constantly directing his own soldiers to send orders, so that the Song army in the city was prepared.At the gate of the city, the Song army, which had already been prepared, charged against the Japanese people without fear of death after all the bullets were exhausted.Although the Song army fought with their lives, they could not resist the Japanese army after all.Countless widows poured into the city.Liu Shiji led his own soldiers and some soldiers to continue to block the advance of the Japanese through houses and alleys.Many Japanese died in the alleys, but many Song soldiers died at the corners of the streets.Blood stained the earth red, and shouts of killing were everywhere.Although the Japanese people had already occupied an absolute advantage, the Song army still alive in the city did not give up, and the battle was always ongoing, and Fujiwara Sato knew in his heart that he could not waste time here.He ordered Fujiwara Isshin to lead some of Fujiwara's samurai to sweep Aomori Castle, while he himself led his army to continue to the harbor.His troops were in danger, there was no way to retreat, and he had to use the fastest speed to drive the Song army in the harbor into the sea.Fujiwara Sato led an army of 70,000 people quickly left Aomori and rushed to the harbor.As he got closer to the harbor, the light in his eyes grew.Wu Donglai saw Fujiwara Sato leave, almost crazy, he didn't complete the order given to him by Hao Yunjie to hold on for two days, but in one day, Aomori was lost.Just as he was about to use this life to die with the Japanese people, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the distance, and it was getting closer and closer, and the cavalry led by Lang Ping arrived.Seeing the situation in Aomori Castle, he did not hesitate and immediately ordered the Song army to attack.The Song army rushed into the city, looking at the corpses of countless compatriots, their glasses were all red, they had not experienced such a loss for a long time.Fujiwara saw that the Song army had reinforcements, and he did not panic, and immediately arranged for his subordinates to stop the Song army, he knew very well that these Song troops came out of Matsusaka City, and there were not many people.He could easily destroy them.The sergeants on both sides rushed together again.No one flinched, let alone fled.This kind of battlefield, fear and flight will only die faster.Fujiwara led a large army towards the harbor, but within four hours the temporary defensive walls of the harbor could be seen.This is the land of their Japanese people, and it is also the largest entrance and exit for them to plunder to the south.When the Japanese army arrived at Aomori Castle, the harbor was already ready for defense, and the commander was Hao Yunjie.Hao Yunjie issued the order early.After the white-knuckle battle starts, one head can be exchanged for money, and three heads can be promoted.At this moment, the whole harbor is ready for a desperate battle, just waiting for the arrival of the Japanese army.Hao Yunjie knew very well that as long as he could completely annihilate this Japanese army, the entire Japanese island would belong to the Great Song Dynasty.When the Japanese army arrived at the harbor, his retainers advised Fujiwara to rest first, but Fujiwara did not listen to his advice, he just let the army rest for a while, and began to arrange the siege.The scouts kept watching the city's defenses from all directions.After receiving the news, Fujiwara Sato made arrangements as quickly as possible.Attack the North Gate first.The north gate is the main gate of the harbor, and it is also the most densely defended place of the Song army, it can be said that there are sixty percent of the Song army's strength, as long as the breakthrough here, this war is equal to victory.The keeper of the north gate is Gu Ping.Gu Ping is also an old man who followed Zhu Qiming around the sea, if he wins this battle, his merits will be enough to make him go further, and when he comes to the fourth grade, he will also be qualified to send all his family members to Tokyo City.This battle must be won.Gu Ping stood at the head of the city, looking at the Japanese army in the distance, his heart was beating very violently, these Japanese people were not strong enemies in his opinion, but trophies that could be exchanged for silver money and merits.The Japanese people looked at the Song army in the harbor, and their expressions were also fanatical.They didn't care about the emperor, the general, or anything, but they knew that as long as they could rush in and kill all the Song troops inside, the huge warships on the sea, and those powerful muskets would become their things, and these things represented beauty and wealth.Several Japanese cavalry surveyed the surroundings.Gu Ping sneered, picked up the musket, and aimed at a scout.Seeing this scene, the Japanese scouts were not worried, they had fought with the Song army so many times, and he also knew very well that the advantage of muskets was that the rate of fire was fast and powerful, but the problem was that the rate of fire was too fast, so that it was difficult for them to hit fast-moving people.Gu Ping sneered and pulled the trigger suddenly.The scout heard a loud bang, and the next second, he felt his body become cold, followed by a sharp pain.The scout fell to the ground and died, and a burst of cheers and cheers from the Song army suddenly sounded at the city gate."

The general is good marksmanship, and you have caught up with a sniper at this level."

The adjutant said with a laugh.Gu Ping sneered twice, "A group of Japanese people also dare to show off their might in front of my Song army, is it really that I have no one in the Song Dynasty?"

”"General, I don't know what General Hao's arrangements will be after that, the last general feels that the Japanese are tired at the moment, and they should be bombarded with artillery fire to cause them chaos."

Said the adjutant general.After the adjutant general's words were finished, a herald ran over with Hao Yunjie's token."

General!"

When the adjutant general heard this, he was stunned, and said casually, could it be that General Hao also planned to do this?"

Where is Gu Ping?""

Gu Ping is here.""

General Hao ordered, order 3,000 soldiers and horses, go out of the city to meet the attack, and defeat the Japanese front army, the artillery of the north gate and the west gate has been pushed over, all to support the general."

The herald spoke very quickly.Gu Ping took the order flag, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was about to tear down the root of his ear.Before the Japanese arrived at the harbor, Hao Yunjie had already made arrangements, all the guns equipped with wheels and could be moved were near the north gate, and they were not sent to the wall, on the one hand, because the north gate was the main gate, and on the other hand, it was also to quickly support other places, but I didn't expect it to be used so quickly.There were more than 400 guns in the harbor, of which 300 were placed on the north gate.Hao Yunjie's arrangement was that although we had few people, we had enough artillery tubes, so we would use artillery fire to defeat all the Japanese people.In Songban City, Zhu Qiming didn't dare to do this because their artillery was not enough, but it was different here in the harbor, eighty percent of the artillery transported by the Great Song Dynasty warships was here, so the problem was very simple, just need to bombard it with artillery.Hao Yunjie thought that at this time, the Japanese army was already at the end of its strength, and the army came to the harbor so quickly, their physical strength and spirit were already on the verge of limit, and at this time, as long as they were given a little shock, they would collapse themselves.After Gu Ping received the military order, he took the deputy general who was already very excited, and his own soldiers down the city wall.Three thousand cavalry were ready at the gates of the city."

Colleagues, don't say more, today, there are no Japanese people, and there are Japanese people without me."

The adjutant general shouted: "The Song army is mighty. ”"The Song army is mighty!"

The north gate was wide open.Gu Ping took the lead and led three thousand Song troops to rush out.The partial generals constantly placed artillery on the city walls, ready to fire.While the Fujiwara people were in their tent thinking about how to attack the castle next, a Japanese man ran in."

General, the Song army is out of the city."

Fujiwara was stunned: "What did you say, they went out of the city?"

”"Yes, General, the cavalry of the Song Army has already left the city, just outside the city."
