There were tanks in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 512 Using Points to Help ([-])

Night is deep.

After all, the news of the attack on Guiyi leaked out. The messenger did not go to Yizhou to deliver the letter. Instead, he left the west gate and went north to Zhuozhou. He went to Fanyang to deliver the news. Fanyang is the state capital of Zhuozhou. It is said that the Song Dynasty army was shocked immediately after crossing the border and attacking Guiyi County.

There is a long time of friction at the border, but most of them are on the northwest side. Although there are frictions on the Hebei side, they are all frictions. This is the first time that a large army of 5000 people has crossed the border to attack a county. The magistrate of Zhuozhou immediately felt that something big was happening here, and immediately sent several letters and passed them around.

The surrounding Imperial Army, Xiang Army, and Township Army were dispatched one after another.

Coupled with the 7000 forbidden troops in Fan Yang City, by the time it got dark, Fan Yang had assembled [-] soldiers.

Most of these 7000 soldiers were Han Chinese troops, the Liao National Army, and the Fanzhen Army.

The magistrates of Zhuozhou do not have the right to dispatch troops, but now is a special period. In the event of war, they can temporarily dispatch Han troops from around them to help. But that's it, they only have the right to dispatch reinforcements. This right to command Han troops belongs to the Liao people. People of the Khitan clan served as commanders, capital commanders, and military commanders, and the magistrates had no command authority.

Ten miles away from Fanyang County, Guan Sheng was stationed in a small mountain den with [-] Qilin troops.

There were spies outside who kept reporting Fan Yang's situation to Guan Sheng.

7000 people!
Guan Sheng looked at the watch in his hand, it was already three o'clock in the morning.

This watch was given to him by Li Chu as a reward. All the generals at the command level who went to Yanyun this time had a watch, and two hours was an hour. It took them a long time to get used to the current watch time.

At 1 o'clock, Qin Ming had quietly led 1000 people to the east.

The time from three to five in the morning is the most drowsy time for anyone.

The 5000 soldiers in Fanyang, Zhuozhou were not all gathered in the city, but were divided into two parts. One part was mainly cavalry, with a number of about [-] cavalry. These people were distributed outside the city, while the remaining [-] were inside the city. Fan Yang City was brightly lit, and soldiers could be seen patrolling the city wall.

From the time Fan Yang received the news at noon to the evening till now, there were ten waves of messengers sent out by Fan Yang.

These ten waves of people are mainly going to Yizhou.

Yizhou has a relatively large territory, so there is no special county seat.

"Niugao, tell the brothers to prepare, especially the brothers in the tank, ask them if they have rested, and are ready to attack the city."

"Yes!" Niu Gao took people to prepare.

In the standard equipment of the Qilin Army, every soldier wears night vision goggles.

With this thing, the so-called night blindness at night is useless, and the whole army does not need to light torches to attract the attention of the enemy.

Coupled with the fact that the Qilin Army was covered by a red robe, it was also very inconspicuous in this dark night. Five loli leopards started their engines, and the drivers stepped on the accelerator and moved forward slowly. The soldiers of the two thousand Qilin Army rushed forward. Follow closely behind Loli Leopard Tank.

The lights of the tank were not turned on, because there were soldiers from the Qilin Army in front of them to clear the way for them.

Both Guan Sheng and Niu Gao jumped onto the body of a loli leopard tank.

Outside, there was silence.

The location where the Qilin Army was stationed deliberately avoided many gathering places of the common people. On the way to Fanyang this time, there were many turns around villages where the common people could be avoided. Everything here was quiet, and it was so late at night. What kind of people would run out to look at the stars if they didn't sleep well at home?
Today's winter is not sunny and there are no stars to see.

On Loli Leopard, Guan Sheng kept talking to Qin Ming on the walkie-talkie.

Ten miles away soon.

On the top of the city, although the fire is bright, what they can see is only the position where the fire is shining, and if they are farther away, because of the fire, they can't see it as far as the light. Of course, the so-called distance is based on the The front is also in a state of darkness, if there is a fire in the distance, it will naturally be found here.

Everything is quiet, except for the sound of the gasoline engine of the tank.

Fan Yang's south gate was already within the shooting range of Loli Leopard.

"Hurry up, get out of the car, get out of the car, everyone is ready."

Both Guan Sheng and Niu Gao jumped off the tanks, and ordered the generals and captains of each team to command and control the soldiers of each team, and the muzzles of five loli leopards were also aimed at the city gate.

"Don't fire, hit me directly, and break open the gate of Fan Yang's city!"

Guan Sheng was afraid that the sound of the guns would surprise the sleeping Liao and Han troops, and it might backfire. It would be better to let the tank use his steel body to directly smash into Fan Yang's city gate, and the army would directly attack him in the city. One was caught off guard.

Soon, according to Guan Sheng's order, the tank rushed directly to Fan Yang's city gate.

At this time, the headlights of the tank were also turned on.

On Fan Yang's city wall, the defenders immediately spotted the five steel monsters below the city.

"Look, what is that, what the hell is that?"

On a big night, the ten car lights are very strange at night. The defenders on the city wall only saw ten light clusters moving forward. Still coming to the city wall, many people whose psychological quality is not up to standard are so frightened that their legs shake and they kneel down to pray and bow down. Before they can recover, they feel the city wall shake slightly.

City gate, open!
Tanks drove straight into it.

Knowing this moment, the defenders on the city wall discovered the true face of the light group in front of them, which was a huge steel monster. In the human realm, some defenders tried to intercept them, but they were all crushed by this steel monster.

Soon, all five Lolita tanks re-entered the city wall.

At this time, no one paid attention to the outside of the city any more, and all their attention was on the five steel monsters inside the city.

A large number of Qilin troops rushed into Fanyang City following the five loli leopards.

"Niugao, you take people to the county government office, and I'll find the military camp."

As soon as they entered the city, Guan Sheng and Niu Gao divided the Qilin Army into three groups according to the pre-war deployment. One group was led by Niu Gao, and he led people into the city to control the county government. The group was led by Guan Sheng. , responsible for finding the camp where the five thousand Han troops were stationed in the city, and controlling these Han troops.

The other road is responsible for the defense of the city walls and gates.

Outside the city, there were two thousand Liao cavalry.

Most of these cavalry are mainly composed of Liao people and supplemented by Han people. There is no way to deal with the cavalry Guan Sheng for the time being. After all, no one has the Qilin Army. If they chase, they will definitely not be able to catch up, so they can only wait for them to take the initiative to attack, so this is First occupy Fan Yang, and then use Fan Yang as a defender to deal with these cavalry.

The Qilin Army of the third route formed an formation outside the city, and the composite crossbow was already wound up, ready to be called at any time.

Just now, after the Qilin army rushed into Fan Yang's city, several rockets were fired into the air from the city. These rockets should be a signal to the two thousand Liao cavalry outside the city.The Liao people's cavalry was stationed not far from Fan Yang. They would definitely organize troops to come to support them immediately after seeing the signal arrows shot from the city.

What the third road needs to do is to wait for the arrival of the Liao cavalry at the city gate, and use the composite crossbow in their hands to ruthlessly pour them down.
