In the early morning of the next day, inside the summer army camp outside Chengdu.
The war drums of "knock, knock, knock, knock" sounded, and the 200,000 troops in the battalion gathered at the fastest speed, although the speed of these Song troops was still far behind the Xia army, but after this half a month of training, it was much better than before, and the combat power has also been greatly improved.
Li Yue stood on the school platform and shouted to all the soldiers: "Brothers, in front of you is the richest Chengdu Mansion in the land of Sichuan and Shu, this marshal once said that if the people in the city refuse to surrender, after the city is broken, there will be no chickens and dogs, brothers take Chengdu Mansion, the women, gold, silver and jewelry and all the wealth in the city belong to you; Expedition" As the so-called heavy reward must have a brave man, how much wealth in the entire Chengdu Mansion who can say clearly, to know that Chengdu Mansion is a large city with a population of nearly one million, where the entire Sichuan and Shu region is concentrated at least one-third of the wealth, as long as the city is captured, every soldier will have no worries about food and clothing in this life in the future, under the encouragement of such a heavy reward, the Xia army soldiers began to march to Chengdu Mansion.
Under the leadership of Li Yue, 200,000 Xia troops came to Chengdu Mansion to set up a formation, a posture of attacking the city, at this time in Chengdu Mansion Assassin Mansion are in chaos into a pot of porridge, everyone is arguing, in addition to the officials of Chengdu Mansion, most of them are a gentry and businessmen, they are the top people in Chengdu Mansion, more than ninety percent of the wealth in Chengdu Mansion is concentrated in their hands, if the Xia Army really carries out a massacre after breaking the city, they not only can't keep their wealth, but even their lives are estimated to be unsaved.
At this moment, a Song military captain hurriedly ran in and said: "Lord Assassin Shi, Lord Assassin Shi is not good, the big thing is not good, the Xia army is going to attack the city." ” Cui Gan grabbed the lieutenant's collar and asked in disbelief: "What are you saying that the Xia army is going to attack the city, this is impossible, how can the Xia army attack the city after how long has it been?"
The captain said with some fear: "My lord, it's true, the Xia army has already set up a posture, and it looks like it will attack soon." ” Everyone was also panicked when they heard the captain's words, everyone didn't expect that Xia Jun would attack the city so soon, everyone's eyes focused on Fang Kui, and Fang Kui was still drinking tea very comfortably; Cui Gan walked to Fang Kui's side and said, "Virtuous nephew, why don't you go out of the city first and talk to Li Dashuai, give us two days to give us a grace period, and let us discuss." ” Fang Kui directly refused: "I won't go, you have been arguing since last night, you have been arguing all night, and you have not discussed a result, let alone giving you two days, even if you are given two years, it is estimated that there will be no result, in my opinion, you had better go to the city to have a look, only after you really realize the strength of the Xia army can you make up your mind." ” "Just look at it, I don't believe that Xia Jun can really grow three heads and six arms."
An obese old man said.
"Go, go, go, go" A large group of people walked to the gate of the city tower in the north city, there is still some distance from the gate tower of the Thorn Shifu Road, they are not generals on horseback, a group of officials and men are fat like pigs, sitting on the carriage and walking slowly towards the city gate, when they finally climbed the city tower, Xia Jun's has made all the preliminary preparations.
Li Yue took the telescope to observe the Song army's city defense, and couldn't help but shake his head, this is no different from no defense; When Li Yue's telescope saw the city gate tower, Li Yue sneered and ordered: "Order all the artillery and return artillery to Ben Shuai to aim at the city gate building, and give me a bang."
"Yes, I will obey the orders of the commander" After Li Yue's military order was issued, five artillery pieces and 30 return guns began to adjust their positions to aim at the city gate tower, the artillery used flowering shells, and the return guns also threw heavy explosive packs, after everything was prepared, Li Yue gave an order: "Let go" "Boom, boom, boom" Cannonballs and explosives flew up the gate; It didn't take long for a violent explosion to occur on the city gate tower, "boom, boom", the gunpowder burning smoke shrouded the entire city gate tower, more than a dozen people were killed on the spot, even those who survived, they were frightened by the sharp artillery of the Xia army and peed their pants, these people even rolled and climbed out of the city gate tower, at this time Fang Kui and Fang Yuan were waiting under the city gate After these people went down, the Song soldiers who were defending the city also began to tremble constantly, I don't know who took the lead, and the Song soldiers who were originally hidden behind the battlements began to throw away their weapons and flee without permission; Li Yue, who was outside the city, used a telescope to see everything in the city clearly, and even Li Yue couldn't help but laugh at this battle.
Li Yue ordered again: "Order, all the heavy siege weapons attack, the maximum firepower output, the spirit of the Song army to Ben Shuai down." ” Li Yue gave an order, and the Xia army's long-range attack weapons artillery, return cannons, catapults, projectiles, and bed crossbows were all used, and the explosions began to sound around the north city wall of Chengdu Mansion, and the shouts of the Song army were even more constant; Most of the soldiers of the Song army were peasants who had just put down their hoes, and when had they seen such a scene, as soon as the heavy weapons of the Xia army smashed down, the Song army, which did not have to attack and defend the city, began to scatter and flee.
In the Chengdu Mansion under the city, Cui Gan grabbed a general who took the lead and said: "Don't run, don't run, give Lao Tzu back to the city wall." ” The generals of the Song army didn't care about him, pushed Cui Gan away, turned his head and ran, at this time, all the officials and foreign masters were praying to Fang Kui: "General Fang, you go out of the city and talk to Li Shuai and let him stop fighting, we are willing to surrender, we can surrender now." ” Fang Kui looked at everyone with a smile and said, "Your Excellency has made up your mind. ” "It's decided, it's decided, everything will be done according to General Fang's requirements."
Everyone said in unison.
"Okay, since that's the case, Ben Shuai will go out of the city to report to Li Dashuai."
After Fang Kui got on his war horse, he said, "Quickly open the city gate." ” Li Yue, who was in the distance, saw the city gate of Chengdu Mansion open, and immediately ordered: "Order to stop the attack." ” Fang Kui rode a war horse to Li Yue and reported: "Commander, they are definitely going to surrender." ” Li Yue sneered and said: "Don't cry if you don't see the coffin, Fang Kui, you go and tell them that Ben Shuai will give them an hour to prepare, and if they don't go out of the city and surrender after an hour, Ben Shuai will lead troops into the city." ” "Yes, the last general commands" As soon as Fang Kui returned to the city, the officials and foreign masters in Chengdu were ready, starting from the city gate, a red carpet was spread out to two or three miles outside the city, everyone went out of the city to greet Li Yue, and the people in the city were also forced to return to both sides of the street, except for Chengdu Thorn Shi Cui Gan, everyone came; After the city gate was opened, Li Yue led the 200,000 troops to the city, along the way the Xia army was disciplined, and directly took over the entire city defense and strategic places in the city after entering the city, such as granaries, arsenals, military camps, and official yamen were all under the control of the Xia army, and the entire Chengdu Mansion completely fell into the hands of the Xia army.
