Chapter 293 Under Luoyang City

There is a saying that he was bitten by a snake and was afraid of the well rope for ten years.

It can be said that this sentence saved the slow-moving people.

Feng Zhen first sent someone to search the nearby mountain, and then arranged 10,000 horses in Guanguan to ensure that he had no worries about his back, and then commanded the rest of the people and began to advance to Luoyang.

The real army was a kind of cavalry, so although there were some delays on the way, it still bit the tail of the people and chased them to Luoyang City.

Seeing a swarm of bees of people from afar, the vanguard of the Wei army suddenly came to his senses and rushed up with a strange scream.

However, when the dust of the people ran away, the Wei cavalry rushing to the front was stunned to find that after the people, 5,000 armored cavalry were ready to go.

The gray armor in the sun, like the light of death, is guiding them on the road to death.

The cavalry is galloping. If you want to slow down, you have to need a certain distance, which is enough for heavy cavalry to attack.

With the order of the general of the Jin army, 5,000 armored cavalry killed the roaring Wei army.

At this time, the Wei cavalry running in the front saw that the situation was not good and had turned the horse's head and ran to the side, but the cavalry who had not yet seen the situation behind still rushed forward foolishly, and when they saw the heavy armored cavalry of the Jin army, it was too late.

"Boom..."

The two cavalry finally collided together. In this case, how can ordinary war horses defeat the heavy armored cavalry like steel monsters? After the collision, a bloody opening was soon dug by the heavy armored cavalry in the Wei army, and then the opening became bigger and bloody.

At this time, 20,000 ordinary cavalry behind the heavily armored cavalry also launched a counterattack against the Wei army.

Wing Wei Jun, who came with longing, thought that he would encounter this situation? The killed cried father and mother, and for a moment, the army was defeated like a mountain. The 20,000 forward army was killed by the Jin army in a blink of an eye and began to run back for their lives.

Fengzhen, who was not far behind, had learned from the scouts about the encounter in front of him. In shock, he immediately ordered the army to deploy on the spot and at the same time, he opened several channels in the army to prevent the defeated soldiers from dispersing his camp.

Since the last defeat at the Yanmen Pass, the experienced generals in the Wei army have summed up the way to fight against the heavy armored cavalry, so Feng Zhen is not afraid of the heavy armored army that has been killed, and even a little happy.

Emperor Tuoba Gyu was defeated under the heavy armored army. If he could defeat him in one fell swoop, wouldn't he be able to surpass the emperor?

Some smart people are often killed by smart. He never seems to have thought about what will happen to those who have the ability to overshadow the emperor?

Feng Zhen soon found that he was wrong again. Let alone the heavy armored cavalry, just looking at the ordinary cavalry of the Jin army who chased his army, he took a breath of cold air.

"The iron horse of the Jin army is so elite?"

He didn't think that it could be a garbage army guarding the imperial capital of the empire? And now Feng Zhen has not seen the most elite panther army.

At this moment, Feng Zhen suddenly felt that he should follow Yao Shuode's advice?

At this moment, the head of Luoyang City suddenly remembered the crisp sound of gold. Then he saw the Jin army slowly strangled the war horse and retreated in an orderly manner.

Feng Zhenyuan wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to chase and kill, but then he gave up the idea. Not to mention that the Jin army retreated without chaos, far away, he had seen that the catapling machine on the wall had raised its head. It can be imagined that once he led the army to chase and kill, the stone rain on the top of the city It will fall.

Seeing the powerful catapult of the Jin army, Feng Zhen's heart was even heavier. He ordered the army to retreat ten miles to camp, and then go nearby to find the common people.

He has already figured out that if he wants to break through the strong city of Luoyang, he has to use the method of fighting the customs.

At this time, Luoyang City is already overcrowded, and it is winter. If the people sleep on the streets, they will definitely have problems.

In view of this situation, Lu Qiang ordered the army to dispatch a large number of military tents to build on the army's school grounds for temporary residence. At the same time, he ordered the rich gentry officials in the city to supply water for the people.

Now on the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, you can't fool the people by applying porridge. Lu Qiang strictly ordered that there must be meat in every meal provided to the people.

After several years of accumulation, it can be said that there is nothing lacking in Luoyang City. Rich businessmen and gentry are everywhere. At the same time, with the strength of the Wei army, there is no long-term siege at all.

In addition, Zhang Changzhi, the general stationed in Jiankang, has led 50,000 troops and is rushing here day and night. If nothing unexpected happens, these 100,000 horses will be destined to be destroyed under Luoyang City.

Under the supervision of Lu Qiang Junchen, the people who fled to the vicinity of the city were not only not wronged at all, but also ate better than at home.

In this way, the uneasiness of the people was immediately stabilized, and with the strict inspection of the army, there was no chaos in the city.

On the other hand, Fengzhen is not so good. The grassland people do not pay as much attention to logistics supplies as the Central Plains army, because they rely on eating and grabbing there, and once they can't grab anything, they will immediately fall into the dilemma of food and food.

How much grain and fodder do more than 100,000 troops have to spend every day? On the night under the camp, the quartermaster found Feng Zhen and told him that the grain and grass in the camp was only enough for three days, that is to say, if they could not get Luoyang within three days, they would have to be hungry.

In other words, if they can't get Luoyang in a day and a half, they must retreat while there is still grain and grass. Otherwise, they can think of any consequences they will face.

What made Fengzhen depressed was that he had arrested some people nearby, but only two or three hundred people could not achieve his ideal goal at all.

And those places with villages and towns were even more amazing. Before the people fled, they burned everything that could be eaten by fire, which made Wei Jun, who aimed at looting, even more disappointed.

At this time, Feng Zhen couldn't help thinking of what Yao Shuode told him not to underestimate the enemy, so as not to keep up with the logistical supplies. But at that time, he just wanted to take Luoyang quickly. What else can he think of? It's useless to regret now. I can only strive for a quick decision.

The next day, at dawn, Feng Zhen urged people to push the hundreds of civilians captured to the front, and then began to advance towards Luoyang City.

Han Yanzhi had already told Lu Qiang about the rogue method of Fengzhen when he returned to Luoyang.

I'm afraid no one dares to give such an order easily, but everyone understands that if the lives of these hundreds of people are hurt, I'm afraid that hundreds of people will not be lost in the end.

So this problem will eventually be decided by the emperor Lu Qiang.

Lu Qiang was dressed in armor and his hair was tied behind. The white cloth on his head had not been removed. He stood at the head of the city with a gloomy face and looked at the Wei army, who were getting closer and closer to the black pressure, and hundreds of trembling people in front of him, but did not say anything for a long time.

Lu Qiang knew that everyone was waiting for his order, and he also knew that he must not lose a lot because of a woman's kindness. But after all, he is a Han emperor. Isn't it so easy to order his compatriots to wave a butcher knife?

"Your Majesty..."

Wang Zhenji, Han Yanzhi and others on the side said almost in the same voice.

The Wei army has arrived at the moat, and the moat has frozen in this season and has no effect at all.

Fengzhen, who was behind the army, saw that there was no movement in the city. He couldn't help but be overjoyed. The Han people really had these useless false reputations, and strong as Sima Dezong was no exception!

"Come on, beat the drum..."

Before Feng Zhen's words fell, he suddenly widened his eyes and looked ahead with a frightened face.

However, it turned out that the defenders of Luoyang finally began to fight back. After a sound, nearly a hundred loaded catapults were launched at the same time. For a moment, stones of different sizes flew down from the head of the city like raindrops.

The bow and crossbow of the defenders at the head of the city were also powerful at the same time, and the arrows all over the sky covered the sky and closed the sun, frantically harvesting the lives of the Wei soldiers.

The defenders and Lu Qiang and others on the city dare not look at the people who have been submerged in the rain of arrows. Although they have shot the arrows as far away as possible, it is impossible for these people to escape under this indiscriminate shooting.

In the shortest time, those people, together with thousands of Wei troops, were shot and killed under the city. The Wei army behind saw that the situation was not good and retreated like a tide without waiting for Feng Zhen's order.

Seeing this, Feng Zhen couldn't help cursing angrily: "Sima Dezong, you hypocrite, don't you claim to love the people like a son? Why did you do it to your own people?..."

Although he scolded loudly, it could not be transmitted to the city at all. After scolding for a moment, he organized the army to attack the city again. He didn't have much time. If he didn't attack, it would be too late.

The generals couldn't help persuading: "General, the defenders are too tight to defend, and the brothers can't rely on it at all..."

Before he finished speaking, he was cut down by Feng Zhen with a knife and shouted angrily: "This is the end that disturbs the heart of the army. Immediately attack me. Your Majesty said that those who enter the city first, the king, there are countless treasures and women in the city waiting for you. Our humble heroes can't be scared by the sheep-like Han people and kill..."

Not to mention, Feng Zhen's words did have a role. After the retreating soldiers reorganized the team, they carried a huge shield and killed the wall crazily again.

This time, the catapult in the city changed its ammunition and put huge cloth bags full of the most primitive gunpowder in the pocket. With the order of the officer, it hit the Wei soldiers again.

Seeing the dark fall, the Wei soldiers instinctively hid behind the shield and secretly prayed not to be hit by the stones. However, they soon found that after these special stones fell, they did not hurt anyone, but cracked in the sound of poof, and then something like dust inside splashed the soldiers. Many soldiers inhaled too much and began to cough violently.

With more and more original gunpowder flying to the city, Lu Qiang personally took a ignited rocket from the soldier's hand, put it on the overlord's bow, struggled to pull the bow string, and then loosened his hand and saw the rocket shot into the Wei soldiers like a meteor.

"Boom..."

Nearly 10,000 soldiers charged in the front, and their bodies were covered with gunpowder. When they didn't understand what was going on, their bodies were already on fire...
