Chapter 381: Howling and Crying
Chapter 381
The atmosphere in the big tent was cold, Empress Dowager Liang was furious, and no one dared to squeak.
Li Qianshun sat and made himself as transparent as possible, at this time, he would not come out.
It's just that, as the Emperor of Great Xia, he is very heartbroken.
Seventy or eighty thousand people were lost in Xiaoxiao Pingxia City, almost half of the troops they sent this time, how could they not feel distressed!
With so many troops lost, it will be difficult to fight with the Song State in the future, and with his land and population in Great Xia, it will take an unknown number of years to recover!
Li Qianshun quietly glanced at the Empress Dowager Liang in front of him, his eyes were vague, and he bowed his head and said nothing.
Seeing that these people didn't speak, Empress Dowager Liang became more and more angry, and suddenly walked in front of Wei Ming's burial, and roared angrily: "This palace asks you, how long will it take to take Pingxia City, my soldiers of Great Xia, can't die in vain!" ”
This is indeed a big talk, who doesn't know that this time the Song Dynasty was the intention of the Empress Dowager Liang, and no one in the entire Great Xia could persuade him.
Retreating now, in fact, is already a good result, with their current morale and food and grass, continue to attack, not to mention that they can't be attacked, even if they are broken, they can only save a little face, it is impossible to continue to march, there is no benefit at all, and there will be a loss of I don't know how many troops!
What's more, the Song people have been standing still, maybe they are waiting for the opportunity!
Seeing that Empress Dowager Liang was pressed for the second time, Wei Ming Ah Bury had to bite the bullet and said: "Niangniang, I have been attacking for more than ten days, and Pingxia City is strong and strong, I'm afraid it's useless to continue, it's better to ...... Withdraw your troops. ”
"No way!"
Empress Dowager Liang roared in a sharp voice, "Pingxia City must be conquered, otherwise how can we explain to the subjects of Great Xia!" ”
Wei Ming Ah Bury didn't dare to speak, and Empress Dowager Liang refused to withdraw from the army? He didn't dare to persuade anymore.
Inside the big tent? are all subservient to the obscenity of the Empress Dowager Liang, and even Li Qianshun is silent? Who would dare to put a beak?
At this moment? A soldier hurriedly ran over, knelt on the ground and said, "Empress Dowager Qi? Song Junfan's general Li Zhongjie suddenly attacked Yanzi Mountain, and Zhuo Luo's military division was defeated? The whereabouts of the commander of the army, Rindo Hozhong, are unknown. ”
Yesterday was Zhuo Luo City? Today is Zhuo Luojun.
"Bastard!"
Empress Dowager Liang was furious, shouting at the entire big tent, and said, "Since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, this kind of thing has never happened!" ”
Wei Ming's scalp is numb? Does he feel a chill in his neck? Dying.
Li Qianshun couldn't calm down this time, and his face was gloomy.
The Song army's attack was very rhythmic, obviously premeditated, Zhuo Luocheng bordered Xihe Road, although it could not threaten Xingqing Mansion yet? Or are they now, but the Song army is attacking on all fronts? From the Left Chamber's Military Division, to Zhuo Luo's Military Division? At the junction of Song and Xia, the Song army is on the offensive in an all-out way!
What is their purpose? Li Qianshun was uneasy.
The Song people lured them to war early in the morning? Even used Pingxia City to block their 200,000 army? Attacks were made from other places.
'Are you going to destroy my Great Xia?' ’
Li Qianshun hurriedly shook his head in his heart? The Song people can't do it yet.
Just when the Empress Dowager Liang roared like thunder and Li Qianshun was shocked, suddenly, another soldier ran in and said urgently: "Empress Dowager Qiqi, there is news from the prison army that they have been ambushed by the Song people, losing 3,000 people, and have retreated. ”
Empress Dowager Liang's angry chest was about to explode, her eyes widened angrily, her breath was short, she stared at Wei Ming Ah Bury viciously, the killing intent was like substance, and she gritted her teeth and said: "You have heard it, the Song people are so arrogant, do you still want to withdraw the army?" ”
Wei Ming'a buried his brows tightened, he didn't expect that his sister Le Duqi would be ambushed!
Now, if they want to leave, they have to see the right time, and they can't just leave.
Wei Ming's burial carefully calculated, and said in a deep voice: "Niangniang, then continue to attack the city." First, wait for my sister to return to the army. Second, to contain the Song army, so that they did not dare to move. ”
Pingxia City is located at a critical point, if Pingxia City is breached, the entire plan of the Song army will be affected!
Empress Dowager Liang doesn't care about anything else, as long as Wei Ming's burial continues to attack the city, take Pingxia City, and let out the evil anger in her chest.
"Then continue the siege!" Empress Dowager Liang roared with all her might.
"Yes!"
Wei Ming's burial gritted his teeth in response.
Li Qianshun glanced at him, his expression couldn't be concealed, and he became more and more bad.
There are already dead and wounded under the city of Pingxia and I don't know their Great Xia soldiers, continue to attack, command losses will be more, and it will take longer to recover!
But he couldn't say it, and he couldn't stop the Empress Dowager Liang.
Yes.
Western Xia continued to attack Pingxia City, directly to noon on the thirteenth day.
Compared with the reckless pursuit and fierce attack of Western Xia, Pingxia City is very calm.
By this time, although there were huge casualties in Pingxia City, the confidence to hold on was basically stabilized.
The head of the South Gate.
Yao Gu and Yao Xiong, the two brothers, looked at the Xia army's offensive with a sneer, Yao Xiong said: "Deputy Commander, the Xia army is no good, this offensive is too weak, if it were me, I would rather not attack and lose soldiers in vain." ”
The Xia army attacked for more than ten days in a row, and its morale was low, no matter how much Wei Ming buried it, it was no longer as sharp as before.
Yao Gu said suspiciously: "According to the time, the Xia army's grain and grass should have bottomed out, shouldn't they withdraw the army?" ”
The Xia army has few poor people, and it is difficult to gather the grain and grass of hundreds of thousands of troops, and every time the war starts, the soldiers have a maximum of half a month's rations, plus the time to come and go, the food and grass of the Xia army has bottomed out.
Yao Xiong said: "Xia Jun has too many casualties, and he can save a lot." ”
Yao Gu was stunned, opened his mouth, and was speechless. It makes sense.
Guo Cheng, who had been silent, suddenly spoke and said, "That's about the same." Reinforcements from all walks of life have almost arrived, Yao Gu, you get ready. ”
Yao Gu was even more stunned and said, "What are you going to prepare?" ”
Guo Cheng looked at the direction of the Western Xia camp and said, "I received a secret order from the official family, and I can't just let the Xia army withdraw." ”
Yao Xiong looked at Guo Cheng and said, "Does the official family have a secret purpose?" ”
Guo Cheng glanced at the two of them and said, "You don't have to doubt it. The official decree said, the Xia people are rampant, we have been beaten for so long, they have withdrawn their troops, there is no such cheap thing in the world, the whole army, ready to attack. ”
The two brothers Yao Xiong and Yao Gu glanced at each other, their eyes were shocked, they didn't expect that Guo Cheng would have the secret decree of the official family in his hands!
"The last general is clear!" The two didn't think much about it, and immediately knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice.
Guo Cheng stood at the head of the city, his eyes gradually showing a fierce color.
At the same time, Zong Ze had conquered Hongzhou and targeted the Jianing Military Division from afar.
Chu You did it faster than him, directly surrounded the Xishou Baotai Military Division, and was strengthening the attack.
The cavalry in the construction of the plant took advantage of the speed of maneuver to directly surround Hongzhou, and the army walked around the city without attacking.
However, the Yinzhou guard general actually submitted 'Vote for Integrity' to Chong Jianzhong, and was willing to surrender to the Great Song Dynasty!
The actions of the Song army were grander than in history, and they advanced more deeply.
On the evening of the thirteenth day of the siege of Pingxia City in Western Xia.
The morale of the Western Xia army was low, and no one still had the intention of fighting.
Empress Dowager Liang's big tent.
Sister Le Du came back, and knelt on the ground with Wei Ming's bury with an embarrassed face.
Wei Ming Ashan has some credit, not so embarrassed, standing aside, and said with a solemn expression: "Niangniang, at present, more than half of my army has been killed and wounded, and the grain and grass have lasted for three days at most......"
Empress Dowager Liang sat on the chair with an expressionless face, looked around at the crowd in the big tent, suddenly burst into tears, and muttered: "Is there really so many dead and wounded?" ”
Li Qianshun saw it on the side, his eyes glowing with coldness.
However, the famous Ah Shan suddenly understood, knelt on the ground with a puff, and said loudly: "Niangniang, my Daxia soldier sacrificed his life for the country, and died without regrets." It's just that the Song people are cunning, and it is not appropriate to continue fighting, so please withdraw your troops temporarily, and get ready for the next year, and then come to avenge them! ”
Empress Dowager Liang cried heartbreakingly, and gradually cried loudly, crying silently.
It was the first time that the people in the big tent had encountered this situation, and they were at a loss for a while and could not react.
I don't know how long it took, Sister Le Du suddenly woke up, kowtowed violently, and said: "Niangniang, please withdraw the troops, this battle is all ineffective, not Niangniang's fault, please don't be overly sad." ”
Empress Dowager Liang raised her face and said in a trembling voice: "What the Qing family said is true?" ”
