Chapter 452 (1/2)
Although no troops were stationed outside the city, the Houjin army set up many defensive barriers such as resisting horses, pits and iron nails in the area outside the south of the Yangtze River.
It's no harm to resist horses and sink, but these iron nails are sprinkled under the soft snow, which is hard to detect with the naked eye. As they approach the moat, half a dozen of them have been stabbed.
Even on Jude Chuan's hand, there was a blood hole.
The pain is still the second, but the blood can't stop turning outward. In such a terrain, the bright red blood color is easy to be detected by the Houjin garrison overhead.
Fortunately, it was the north wind, and the smell of blood could not be transmitted to the city.
The city was in front of him, and he had no time to think about it. He wiped the blood on his side of his thigh and said in a low voice, ”boys, come one by one. Watch out for nails. Don't panic. Even if you get stuck, don't make a sound. ”
Xing Ergou took the lead and replied in a low voice: ”don't worry, Mr. Qiu. Even if you lose your head, the children will never say anything.”
Soon, a group of people in front of the city, behind the eyes of the Jin army, approached the gate.
There are more nails under the city gate, but the explosive bags are ready-made. The children also have a long memory. They slowly sweep out a path with their hands, and pile the explosive bags under the gate in turn, and lead out the lead carefully.
In such weather, the work of the lead wire can not be careless.
Fine, it is easy to be put out by the wind and snow, rough, but it is also easy to be detected by the Houjin garrison on the head of the city.
Fortunately, judechuan had been prepared. All the wires were wrapped in white cloth, almost as thick as a thumb, leading to the east side of the city head.
In such a weather, if you don't stare directly, even if you have a telescope, it's hard to detect.
At the other side of the city gate, the child Lang made a sign that everything was ready, and Jude Chuan himself checked the lead wire again. Then he waved his hand and ordered the children to retreat to the East.
At this time, there is about a quarter of an hour from Yin Shi.
A quarter of an hour at this time is equivalent to half an hour in later generations.
However, judechuan and his wife had long been experienced. They huddled together and held each other tightly. Relying on each other's temperature to keep warm, they were waiting for the signal from the main force in the south.
……
By this time, the two main forces of Changsheng camp and Chen Zhong department had been exhausted, and hundreds of close relatives of Mao Wenlong's troops and two thousand troops of Zhang pan were all ready.
In view of the visibility obscured by wind and snow, Li Yuanqing simply opened his courage and the whole army opened up to approach.
In the hazy atmosphere, the Ming army's battle line with more than 20000 people quietly approached the direction of Zhenjiang city.
Mao Wenlong and Li Yuanqing are located in the central army. Like the children, they are approaching at a fast pace and on foot.
However, the closer he was to Zhenjiang City, the more uneasy Mao Wenlong felt. In such a cold weather, a cold sweat oozed from his forehead.
Li Yuanqing felt Mao Wenlong's tension.
As the saying goes, ”once bitten by a snake, I fear the well rope for ten years.”
Although Mao Wenlong is a hero, he has a natural disadvantage. His experience in winning against the post Jin army is really too little. He is far from the same as the children of Changsheng camp. He has established a psychological advantage over the latter Jin army.
Especially at this time such a risky action.
As a coach, Mao Wenlong has been standing up to now, which is very valuable.
Most importantly, he also understood that he directly handed over the command of the campaign to Li Yuanqing.
Although the number of his headquarters is not large, only a few hundred people, but this makes Li Yuanqing feel more at ease, and can effectively twist the power of the various ministries into a rope.
Soon, the Ming army had approached the distance of 400 steps, vaguely saw the wall of Zhenjiang city.
If it approached further, the main force of the Ming army would be exposed to the vision of the later Jin army.
”Yuanqing, how long will it be in Yinshi?” Even Mao Wenlong couldn't help asking about the time of Li Yuanqing.
Li Yuanqing smiles, ”marshal, it should be soon. I can't wait. ”
Mao Wenlong nodded with a smile, ”Yuanqing, your spirit, I really can't compare.”
Li Yuanqing said with a smile: ”commander-in-chief, this time, my humble position is also a little anxious. It's up to you, commander-in-chief, to stabilize your position. This time, we have to hit it
Mao Wenlong nodded emphatically, ”not bad. Before dawn, we must control the situation in the city! ”
There was silence for about seven or eight minutes. At this time, Xu sunspot came forward quickly and said in a low voice, ”general, it's time.”
Li Yuanqing nodded, and his face was ferocious for a moment, ”send the signal!”
”Yes
The soldiers took out the flint, and a dozen people gathered together to form a wall to block the wind and ignite the fire clasp.
For a moment, ”whoosh, whoosh”, three firecrackers burst into the night sky, burst into the air of 60 or 70 meters, and burst out a brilliant fireworks.
How dare Jude Chuan ignore the signal from the main battle line? He called on the children and lit the wire.After a while, I only heard a continuous loud noise, which seemed to break the whole world apart. In the direction of the South Gate of Zhenjiang City, flames were splashing everywhere, and the huge gate was directly blown away, and the wall was afraid to be blown apart.
