Chapter 376: Ready

The Xia people attacked the west gate and the south gate at the same time, and the siege equipment was used together.

Even if Song Jun had been prepared and very sufficient, he still immediately felt the huge pressure.

Yao Xiong, Yao Gu, two brothers, shouted loudly at the city gate and kept scheduling.

The firearms on the top of the city were like sand, and they were falling down.

In a short period of time, countless corpses appeared under the two city heads, and they were still increasing rapidly.

This is a meat grinder, constantly harvesting the lives of the Song and Xia armies.

Wei Ming Ah Bury stood behind the Xia army, looking at Pingxia City, which was actually not big, with a calm and calm face.

Not far away, a partial general came up and said: "Marshal, the Song people are still old tactics, the walls are clear, the five villages we captured, there is nothing, there is not a grain of grain within a radius of 100 miles!" ”

Wei Ming'a looked at Pingxia City and said, "It's not unexpected, take Pingxia City, Pingchuan, are the cavalry ready?" ”

The general said: "Ready!" ”

Wei Ming's face was full of ambition, and said: "The Song people will only defend the city, as long as we break through this small city, we can take Pingchuan, Jingyuan Road, and Huanqing Road directly!" ”

The general looked excited and said, "What the marshal said is true!" ”

The general stood behind Wei Ming'a, looked at the fierce offensive and defensive battles of Pingxia City, and saw that he was still stuck, and said flatteringly: "Marshal, Niangniang and Your Majesty will arrive in three days at most, if the eldest lady sees you conquering Pingxia City, she will be very happy." ”

Wei Ming A Bury is the commander of the six armies, and the Empress Dowager Liang's restraint method is very simple, and she will bring all the family members of Wei Ming Ah Bury with her. The army of the back road arrived, and so did the family members of Wei Ming's burial.

Wei Ming's burial did not react to the flattery of his subordinates.

The general didn't say anything more, and looked at the battlefield seriously.

Speaking of which, is Pingxia City really not big? It's just in a fortress? In addition, the Xia army is too bad at attacking cities, so it seems unattainable.

The two sides are strangled at the head of the city? The shouts of killing shook the sky.

Guo Cheng personally went to the city? Boost morale.

The offensive of the Xia army, from early to noon? Half a moment without stopping, the army has changed three waves? A posture of not giving up if he does not take Pingxia City.

The Song army's defense is no longer single? All kinds of means, stones, oil, and even tunnels that have been dug a long time ago? Attack on the flank of the Xia army.

For Song Jun to dare to take the initiative to fight back? Wei Ming's burial was furious, and he urged the army to attack more and more, and the casualties under Pingxia City expanded rapidly.

Guo Cheng stood at the head of the West Gate City, looking at the Xia army who was like a tide and didn't want to die? He knew in his heart that Xia Jun who came this time? Seems more determined than ever to achieve some purpose? I will never give up!

His face sank like water, and he looked back at the city? Reserve 10,000 troops? Confident in your heart? Not in a hurry, he summoned the two brothers Yao Gu and Yao Xiong, and said in a deep voice: "The grain and grass of the Xia army will be supported for a month at most, and our reinforcements will arrive in five days at the latest, but we must insist on twenty years!" ”

Yao Xiong and Yao Gu are really unclear, so the time relationship between them is very confused.

Guo Cheng's eyes were cold, and he said: "The cardinal minister once told me something about this battle, the reinforcements may not come so quickly, but fifteen days is the limit, what we have to do now is to drag the Xia army to the maximum extent and consume them!" ”

The word 'consumption' contains too many things, time, food and grass, sharpness, strength, confidence and so on!

Guo Cheng was full of confidence, held Pingxia City majestically, and let the 100,000 army attack continuously.

Xia Jun didn't listen, surrounded Pingxia City, and continued to attack the surrounding Great Song Walled City, but there were not many that could be blocked.

However, there were too many walled cities in the Song and Xia border of the Great Song Dynasty, and many of them were easy to defend and difficult to attack, plus Pingxia City held strategic points, and if they were not taken, it would be difficult for the Xia army to go south with all their might.

And the Song army, the strong walls and clear the wilderness, avoided the edge, and Pingxia City became a lonely city.

As a result, the Xia people besieged Pingxia City more and more, and at the same time prepared and waited for reinforcements from the Song army.

The Song army was indeed transferring troops from everywhere, but the strange thing was that Jingyuan Road, which was closest to Pingxia City, didn't make any moves!

Qinzhou.

Temporary Staff Room.

On the wall, there is a huge map of Shaanxi Sixth Road, and there is a large sand table in the house.

The staff officer took the small codex, glanced at Zhao Xu, Zhang Qi and everyone in the room, and said: "Officials, all officials, judging from the current situation, the goal of the thieves is gradually clear, Xihe Road, Huanqing Road, Jingyuan Road, Pingxia City is the breakthrough point, once Pingxia City is lost, then the front line of Jingyuan Road will be withdrawn for seventy miles, and the follow-up Huanqing Road and Xihe Road will be affected......"

Zhao Xu and Zhang Qi were sitting, and the room was full of officials from the capital, Qinzhou, and Shaanxi Sixth Road.

Many people listened to it, and their expressions gradually became solemn.

Although Pingxia City was built by the Song Dynasty, it is really not a big city, a strong city, if it is not rescued as soon as possible, it is only a matter of time before it is lost!

Zhao Xu's face did not move, and he sat upright as usual.

Zhang Qi is taller than Zhao Xu, and he is even more calm when he sits, and his face does not change.

The staff officer looked up at Zhao Xu again, and continued: "Xihe Road passes through Luo Zhongfu, and the chief manager Miao Lu has a letter, and the Xia army has appeared twenty miles outside Xihe Road, and the number is estimated to be about 20,000. The general manager of Jingyuan Road sent a letter, and the Xia army was divided into front and back, and the meeting was a matter of two or three days. The Jingyuan Road has a total of 40,000 troops, and it is advisable to take the initiative to attack, and the General Staff Office believes that it is possible, and it will be beneficial to our strategic objectives by showing strength in the early stage. ”

The staff officer said smoothly, and continued: "Judging from the current battle situation, the staff room deduces that the place where the two armies will fight a decisive battle should be in the area of Pingxia City. ”

This set of staff rooms is actually Zhang Kai's tactical thinking.

Last time, Zhang Kai defeated the Xia army like this.

After listening to this, Zhao Xu smiled and said, "Very good." Zhang Qing, you can say a few words. ”

Zhang Qi looked at the staff officer, his tone was flat, and said: "Soldiers are impermanent, don't copy rigidly." First, the Jingyuan Road will not move, and the reinforcements will not be allowed to approach Pingxia City for five days, waiting for my orders. Second, Xihe Road can attack, and it can be a little bolder. The cavalry under construction, the Zongze Tiger Fear Army is directly dispatched by me, you don't need to think about it. Third, the armies in other places should launch counterattacks, confuse the Xia people's sight, relieve the pressure on Jingyuan Road, and buy time for reinforcements. ”

With the Xia army suddenly encircling Pingxia City, the Song and Xia sides have lost their strategic choice, and the main decisive battle place is on Jingyuan Road, or Pingxia City!

The crowd in the staff room was stunned, glanced at Zhao Xu, and saw that Zhao Xu didn't speak, so they had to say, "Yes." ”

Zhang Kai's words compressed the strategy of the staff room by half, and the Tiger Fear Army, the Tiger and Leopard Army, and the cavalry under construction were not in the plan of the staff room!

Zhao Xu's expression did not move, he was also thinking about the strategy and the battle situation in his heart.

He agrees with Zhang Qi's arrangement, but Pingxia City has become an isolated city, which conflicts with his 'cautious' character.
