Chapter 983 Siege(1/2)

The Liao Kingdom incorporated many foreigners in the process of expansion, which can be seen from their military organization.

In terms of official system, the Liao Kingdom was divided into north and south, and each was different.

Needless to say, the official in the north is the system and people of the Liao Kingdom.

The officials in the south refer to Yanyun and other places.

The population of these places is mainly Han people. Because the rule of the Liao Kingdom was too brutal, many uprisings broke out in the past.

Later, the Liao people found that this was not a problem, so they changed their toughness to a gentle and established a southern official system.

The so-called southern officials continued the official system of the former Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, such as the Secretariat, the subordinate province...the political affairs and the governor...there are all kinds of things.

The north was ruled by the Liao Kingdom itself, while the south was mostly farmed for a living, so they ruled by the Han Dynasty's previous system. This is the Great Liao version of one country and two.

However, the status of the Han people is still lower. For example, the Liao people can be officials in the south, while the Han people cannot be officials in the north, so they can only stay in the south.

Moreover, the officials in the south are naturally shorter than those in the north, and it is probably a bit like the warriors in the Song Dynasty are naturally shorter than those in the literati.

This kind of discrimination is more obvious. In order to appease the Han people, the Liao people stipulated that when the Liao people were officials in the south, they must also wear Han fu. As long as they were officials in the south, whether they were Han or Liao people, they were called Han officials.

This Han official is the southern official, and looks very energetic.

"I have never seen a messenger set fire in history books... Shen An, don't you care if your ancestors are shamed? If they know about it underground, they will definitely dig open the coffin and roar to the sky, regretting giving birth to you, an unworthy descendant..."

The Han official spoke so happily, and Cao Qi looked at Shen An worriedly, "Anbei, just think he is farting!"

This Han official scolded him so badly. Even after Yelu Hongji got the message from behind, he stroked his beard and praised: "This eloquence... is he a Han official?"

"Yes Your Majesty." Someone had envy in his eyes, knowing that the Han official was about to be promoted.

Yelu Hongji said, "Let him come to me."

Tsk tsk!

This is a step to reach the sky!

The Han people could not be officials in the north, but Yelu Hongji was very eloquent because of the Han people's eloquence. He was very scolding and promoted them to his own side.

The future is promising!

Everyone exchanged glances and planned to get close to the Han official later, so as to make a good relationship early.

Yelu Hongji smiled and said, "Shen An was scolded so much that he was speechless. I feel very relieved, hahahaha!"

The Han official there was screaming, and Shen An suddenly leaned out and asked, "Where is your ancestor?"

"...If someone has such an unworthy descendant...what?" The Han official was stunned.

There was a quiet surroundings, and Shen An's voice was loud: "I asked who is your ancestor?"

The Han official subconsciously said: "Someone's ancestor is from Handan..."

Shen An asked again: "Your ancestor is from Handan, but where are you now?"

The Han official's face turned red suddenly.

"Where is Handan?"

Shen An asked step by step: "Where is your ancestor buried?"

Han Guan's lips squirmed, "Some...some..."

Shen An sighed, "Have you brought the ancestral tablets? Can you sacrifice?"

The Han official nodded, which shows that his family still maintained some of the living habits of the Han people, such as worshiping ancestors.

"But your ancestors are in Handan and in the Central Plains..."

The Han official suddenly collapsed and shouted, "I'm from the Great Liao!"

Countless soldiers waved their weapons and shouted: "Kill the enemy! Kill the enemy!"

The shouts resounded throughout the sky, and Yelu Hongji looked as if he was ashen and said, "What is this?"

He likes poetry, songs, and naturally understands this simple military song. He asked who wrote this song.

A civil servant next to him said, "It was made by Chen An."

"Chen An!"

Yelu Hongji looked around and saw someone's face pale, obviously shocked by the momentum of the Song army.

Just a song, is it like this?

"Kill the enemy! Kill the enemy!"

The shouts kept coming, and the morale of the Liao army plummeted.

Yelu Hongji said in a deep voice: "Then Chen An actually used a song to reverse the morale of the army, which shows that he is brilliant. This person is worthy of the name of Emperor Wenzong, but what is the name of a famous general? Let me give you a try."

He drew out his long sword, pointed the knife at the top of the city, and shouted: "Siege the city! Siege the city!"

Tens of thousands of Liao troops shouted in unison, "Siege the city! Siege the city!"

The momentum suddenly tightened, and someone shouted: "Cater comes forward..."

To attack such a dangerous city, there is no catapult, you can only fill it with your lives without a catapult.

The Liao people had this courage, but the Liao army worked hard to get a catapult and was not a spectator.

"The enemy has a catapult!"

An enemy thief was already found on the top of the city wall, and Chen An smiled and said, "We have it, and there are still many."

The catapult is a good thing to attack large-scale enemy targets and morale of the enemy. There are many Yanmen Pass.

"Get ready!"

Chen An is like a child with a toy, so excited.

"Use sulphur bombs!"

The catapult was equipped with a turbulent bomb and ignited...

Bang!

The first ignition bomb flew out of the city and headed towards the Liao army.

"Song Army's catapult..."

Someone in the Liao army was screaming, and everyone looked up at the small black dot in the air.

"This stone is too small, right?"

Several turbulent bombs were tied together and burned, which looked small, but when the height was lowered, the flame became very obvious.

"It's the Song people's sulphur bomb!"

A general shouted with a dark face: "Be careful! Let the catapult be careful!"

Damn it!

If you get hit by a thief, you won't be able to see it anymore.

"Prepare to put out the fire!"

The turbulent bomb fell quickly and hit the edge of a catapult and started to burn.

This shot was avoided, but what about the ones behind?

"Put the stone..."

Military orders were like mountains. Under the threat of the Song army's grease bombs, the operators of the Liao army stepped forward one after another, and later prepared, they shouted and projected them out.

"Notice……"

On the top of the city, Chen An looked at the flying stones, feeling a little ridiculous as he was in the Three Kingdoms period.

Bang!

Two of the stones hit the city wall. Chen An felt a little shocked. At this time, the catapult behind him began to fire a volley.

The burning sulphur bomb rushed out, Chen An raised his telescope and saw a catapult hit by the sulphur bomb and caught fire. The Liao army beside him rushed to put out the fire...

But the fire is not that easy to save, and the main structure of the catapult is wood, that's really...

"This is really a fire!"

But the Liao army was not afraid of death, and stones were still flying over.

Bang!

A stone was hit by a city wall, and more than ten people were blown over by the splashing stone chips, and several bricks were smashed away.

The Song soldiers screamed, and Chen An ordered: "Change the gunpowder jar!"

"Fuck them! Kill them!"

When the canned gunpowder flew over, the Liao army, who were preparing to put out the fire, encountered a disaster.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"

Amid the dense explosions, the Liao army was bombed in a mess, and those who survived by chance ran away in a panic, and the scene was in chaos.
To be continued...
