Chapter 104 The First Mistake After Time Traveling (Favorites)
Soon those Jin soldiers knew why the Song army below who were preparing to attack the city were so leisurely.
Because in the row behind those pawns, nearly two hundred catapults have been installed. The strange thing is that the catapults are not stones, but clay pots.
Before they could see clearly, they saw that after the Song army had finished preparing, someone took a torch and lit the thin hemp rope-like things on the clay pots.
Then, the earthenware pots with a trace of flames all over the sky flew towards the top of the city. These golden soldiers were still the same as before, keeping their bodies down, thinking that hiding under the crenels would be all right.
It turned out that they were wrong this time.
After countless drills at home, and those who have practiced in some small cities before, these "Great Song Vulcan Army" now have a very accurate grasp of the burning time of the clay pot fuze.
Most of those clay pots were flying over the city wall, and exploded when they reached the heads of the golden soldiers crouching under the crenels of the city wall!
Xiao Qi put a lot of iron nails and pieces of broken iron in the clay pot according to a certain proportion.
For a while, fragments of pottery pots were mixed with iron nails and pieces of iron, and the golden soldiers on the city wall were killed and injured countless times.
Even the generals of the Golden Army who had been clamoring at the beginning were killed by the blast, and the rest were seriously injured.
The golden soldiers on the city walls were stunned by this wave of soil bombs!
Before they came back to their senses, another cloud of earthen pots flew over, and now those golden soldiers were blown away, jumping up one after another and running down the city.
This thing is too terrifying, like countless bombs exploding on his head, and those fragments of pottery pots and iron nails flying around are flying in pieces.
As long as none of the soldiers under the clay pot is intact, even those within ten feet of the pot will either die or be injured!
It's so frightening, does anyone in this Song army know magic tricks?
But these golden men on the top of the city are destined to be unable to run away. It's too late for you to think of running after those clay pots have already flown over.
There was another burst of "boom", "boom", and "boom". Those golden soldiers who stood up and ran for their lives were the most miserable, because they were closer to those clay pots after standing up!
Even half of the face of the unlucky guy was bloody and bloody.
The Song army below already knew when the Jin people who encountered this soil bomb for the first time would collapse.
The infantry in front who were about to attack the city shouted immediately after seeing the third wave of clay pots flying towards the city wall, and ran towards the city wall carrying the ladder.
The siege was unusually smooth.
Because the golden men on the top of the city had run away long ago, the Song soldiers who climbed up the top of the city only had to run down the top of the city and open the gate.
Of course, the cavalry of the brave army did not enter the city from here, but ran around the city wall to the opposite city gate, blocking the fleeing golden soldiers.
Blocking these Jin soldiers and killing them, these Jin people organized several charges in order to escape for their lives, but when the Song Army infantry came from the city, they collapsed.
As the very few who were unwilling to surrender were killed, all the other Jin troops threw away their weapons and knelt down to surrender.
This Northern Expedition, Xiao Qi specifically told these generals that those golden soldiers who surrendered could no longer be killed casually.
Because killing the prisoners again will make the other golden soldiers fight to the death and not surrender, and it will be very difficult to capture the city at that time, so this time as long as the surrendered soldiers no longer resist, they are not allowed to kill the prisoners casually.
Of course, in order that they will not pose a threat to the soldiers who stayed behind to guard them, it is necessary to tie them all in a string.
How to arrange these prisoners of war Xiao Qi has long been decided, the Song Dynasty currently has three important large mines to be mined.
These prisoners of war are hard workers. At that time, they only need to set how long they will mine for Da Song, or how much ore they will dig out to be free.
Xiao Qi didn't worry that they would continue to join the Jin army after returning, and would continue to fight against the Song people instead.
Not to mention whether they can still fight after they come out of the mine, whether the Kingdom of Jin will continue to exist at that time is still unclear.
He felt that maybe because of his Northern Expedition, he changed the direction of the wheel of history, and the Golden State Council would soon disappear in the long river of history.
This time the Northern Expedition was divided into two groups, and the right army led by Lin Zheng and Ma Shoucheng was progressing very smoothly. They captured the city and moved north quickly.
However, the left army led by Xiao Qi through the Tongji Canal was unable to do so, and the advance was very slow.
This also made Xiao Qi, who was belatedly aware of it, very embarrassed.
It's not that the half of the people he led encountered strong resistance from the Jin people, those Jin troops were still on the verge of collapsing with his Changsheng Battalion, and couldn't stop Xiao Qi's advance at all.
It was the Tongji Canal he chose that stood in the way of his rapid advancement.
Just when Xiao Qi led the [-] cavalry army and was driving the Jinren army into the big city to take refuge, a scout from behind caught up with him and reported a piece of news that made him depressed.
It turns out that the Tongji Canal is now seriously blocked by silt in the river. Many times the people or goods on the boat need to disembark, and the people on the shore will pull the empty boat over.
Those goods also have to be pulled from the shore through the blocked river, and then reloaded in the river that can travel together, and the progress is very slow.
Only at this time did Xiao Qi sporadically recall some historical knowledge he had seen in his previous life.
It turned out that when Song Gaozu Zhao Gou's old calf fled to the south, he wanted to prevent the Jin soldiers from continuing to invade the south.
Du Chong, the left-behind envoy in Tokyo, was ordered to dig the embankment of the Yellow River, allowing the water of the Yellow River to rush southeast along the Bian River.
However, this man-made breach did not stop the Jin people from advancing southward, but made the Bian River flow with the Yellow River water for a long time, and the sediment was deposited year by year, and the river bed became higher and higher.
In addition, this place has become the territory of the Jin soldiers, and the people of the Jin country did not need to use the Bian River to transport water from the south, so they did not manage it.
This has turned into the current embarrassing situation. Thinking of this, Xiao Qi couldn't help but want to give himself a bad mouth.
Still these days I feel that I have the memory advantage of my previous life, so proud!
If I wasn't too arrogant, why didn't I send scouts to find out the route of my army first, so I just patted my head and decided!
What happened this time also reminded Xiao Qi that he must be cautious no matter what in the future. The head of the traverser is not made of titanium alloy, and it can be chopped off.
No way, Xiao Qi had no choice but to send 1 infantry to escort the more than [-] gold soldiers captured before and move forward while dredging the river.
Xiao Qi, who couldn't get angry after thinking left and right, even wrote a special memorial for Zhao Shen, in which he made a special statement that the Bian River was seriously blocked.
Not only did it hinder my pace of going north to recover the imperial mausoleum of the Great Song Dynasty, but also the north-south water transportation after the recovery of Tokyo will be very difficult.
Let Zhao Shen quickly send craftsmen to dredge the river, otherwise he will have a good time fighting in front, and what will happen if the luggage behind cannot keep up.
Although Xiao Qi just scolded Zhao Gou that old brat in his heart, but there was no mention of it in the playbook.
Although Zhao Shen didn't want to let Zhao Gou read it, but this timid but ecstatic old guy always likes to read those good news recently, so he took it to read by himself.
Although Xiao Qi didn't mention a single word in the memorandum, the old guy Zhao Gou was still embarrassed and lamented: I was wrong!Made big trouble for my precious grandson-in-law!
Zhao Shen stayed silent for fear of saying the wrong thing, and Zhao Gou was unhappy again: "Hurry up and call the craftsmen to dredge the Bian River, and don't delay the food and grass ahead!"
Zhao Shen quickly said: "Father, please rest assured, my son has already issued an order to send craftsmen."
Only then did Zhao Gou return to the harem in resentment, no longer running forward to flirt.
Although Xiao Qi couldn't move north quickly because of the silting of the Bian River, he also had his own way.
With [-] cavalry and [-] infantry, he began to sweep wildly on both sides of the Tongji Canal. The big and small cities with a radius of three to five hundred miles were all pushed across by him like a sieve.
This made him move northward at a slow pace, but as long as he passed by, it had become the real territory of Song Dynasty, and there were no cities occupied by Jin people anymore.
And because he fought steadily, the transportation troops behind were hardly harassed by any Jin army.
On the contrary, it made the Song army lose the least along the way.
As for the 5000 people led by Lin Zheng and Ma Shoucheng on the right side, because the speed of advancing northward was too fast, although those golden troops who slipped through the net could not cut off their rear supplies.
However, the supply ships in the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal were often harassed by small groups of Jin troops, causing them to suffer considerable losses.
