These boxes are full of swarthy grenadiers and shells.

One by one, the soldiers of Great Xia almost scrambled to carry these grenadiers on their shoulders, and some grinned, "Haha, I can finally use this thing again!" ”

Apparently, they should have been trained with grenadiers before.

Soon, the soldiers carrying grenadiers ran back to the battlements. A grenadier was also assembled at the head of the city.

And under the city, there was an endless stream of soldiers carrying large wooden boxes.

After the rows of boxes were opened, they were either cannons, thunderbolts, etc., or dragon guns and bullets.

Wu Shangyun looked up at the sky and muttered, "Jun will be reversed, and he will have to rebel...... I Wu Shangyun, I didn't choose ......"

"Fire!"

At the head of the city and under the city, such a loud roar sounded almost at the same time.

The cannon roared in unison.

Suddenly, cannonballs fell on the walls of Hengshandu. Gray smoke exploded, and stone bricks cracked.

Only artillery shells also landed in the front row of the Western Xia Forbidden Army's large array.

Some Western Xia soldiers were annihilated in the artillery fire. Even, there were grenadiers who were affected by the shells.

Helian Cheng's face changed in an instant, and he exclaimed, "Why do they have grenadiers too!" ”

It was too much of a surprise to him.

The Great Xia Thieves also possessed firearms such as grenadiers, which he had never even thought about before.

Don't......

At this moment, Helian Cheng couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that the Song Kingdom was left and right, and at the same time, he secretly provided grenadiers and other things to Great Xia?

But what good is this for the Song Kingdom?

Could it be that he took advantage of the civil strife in Western Xia to make money from the war?

This is unlikely.

If the Song State wanted to take such an opportunity to exploit Western Xia and Great Xia, it would be completely possible to sell these firearms to the two countries at sky-high prices. Come to think of it, both countries will grit their teeth and accept it.

Could it be that Song Guo still wants to watch Western Xia and Great Xia lose both?

That doesn't seem to make sense.

If you want to see both countries lose, Song can completely avoid providing any arms to the two countries. Because of this, the two countries will still lose both.

Why is that......

Helian seemed to be able to hear the sound of his heart beating violently.

At such a moment, he was undoubtedly a little flustered.

The enemy army in Great Xia also had firearms such as grenadiers, and they could rely on the convenience of the city, and they wanted to take Hengshandu, but the chances of victory could only be said to be very small.

Less than two minutes later, Helian Cheng couldn't help but shout, "Withdraw!" Remove! ”

He was a little angry.

But there is no way to retreat.

Before he figured out where these weapons in Great Xia came from, he really didn't have the confidence to fight to the death with the Great Xia army.

Don't be victorious, but the fruits of victory have been picked by others......

The sound of gold in the Western Xia Forbidden Army immediately resounded.

The generals and men of the army all looked at the city with great surprise, and then slowly retreated to the back.

In the back, Zhongsun Xuan Ting also heard the sound of gold on the front line.

This made him immediately frown, "Why did you withdraw the army?" ”

Then he didn't think much about it, so he just said: "The whole army, go with this commander to respond!" ”

He knew that the sudden retreat of Helian City must have happened unexpectedly.

And the movements of Zhongsun Xuanting's army could not be hidden from the eyes of those Great Xia scouts at the head of Hengshan City.

Wu Shangyun soon learned that another Western Xia forbidden army was coming, but he only chuckled.

He had no intention of letting the army out of the city and actively attacking.

Perhaps, he felt that this was also a thankless task. Both sides have grenadiers and other things, and if he really wants to lead his army to kill outside the city, he may not be able to take advantage of anything.

This battle was the initiative of the Western Xia Forbidden Army, and they only needed to hold the Hengshan Crossing so that the Western Xia Forbidden Army could not advance north, and it was already a victory.

At that time, the Western Xia forbidden army was frustrated and returned, and the prestige of the empress Li Xiushu among the people was inevitably greatly reduced.

And their Great Xia Kingdom can completely divide and rule with the empress. At that time, with the help of the firearms of the Yuan Dynasty, they may not be able to gradually encroach on the empress's territory.

At the head of the city, there were cheers.

The officers and men in the army were quite excited when they saw the Western Xia Forbidden Army retreating like this.

A general said: "These forbidden troops are claimed to be the elite of Western Xia, but it turns out that they are nothing more than that, how strong can they be compared to me?" ”

"The general is absolutely right!"

"The Western Xia Forbidden Army is just helping the gallant mice!"

"The forbidden army used to be known as the elite, but Lao Tzu refused to accept it! Haha, now it seems that it's really just a façade! No, not even a fucking watch! ”

I don't know how many people agreed.

In the past, they were all soldiers of the military division of Baima Qiangzhen or other military divisions, and their status in Western Xia was really inferior to the forbidden army. In my heart, I am undoubtedly a little unhappy.

Only these voices, of course, could not reach Helian Cheng's ears and leave.

He retreated with the army, and from time to time he looked back at the head of the city, but worried.

The grenadier that the Great Xia Army suddenly took out made him feel like he had no master of the six gods.

After a short time, Helian City's army joined the army led by Zhongsun Xuanting.

Zhongsun Xuanting hurriedly galloped to Helian City and asked, "General Helian, why did you withdraw your troops like this?" ”

He hadn't been able to see the grenadiers on the city.

Helian Cheng's face was extremely ugly, even a little pale, and he gritted his teeth and said: "The enemy army also has a firearm like a grenadier!" ”

"What?"

Zhongsun Xuan Ting was also shocked for a moment, "This, how is this possible?" General Helian, are you serious? ”

Helian said: "I saw it with my own eyes, and they have already used grenadiers!" How can there be a fake! ”

"That ......"

Zhongsun Xuan Ting said in a panic: "Where did they get the grenadiers?" ”

Immediately, as if thinking of something, he suddenly closed his mouth.

After that, the two men led the army back to the camp.

This attack was a complete failure.

This was almost a blow to the ambitious Western Xia Forbidden Army.

The generals in the army all looked bad.

Zhongsun Xuanting took a few generals and followed Helian Cheng directly to Helian Cheng's tent.

As soon as he entered the tent, before he sat down, he couldn't help but say, "Could it be that Song Guo also leased firearms to them?" ”

Now among the countries of the Central Plains, only the Song State has firearms such as grenadiers, and he really can't think of any other country other than the Song State that can provide firearms to Great Xia.

"I don't know."

Helian Cheng shook his head lightly and sighed: "But if their firearms are really given to them by the Song Kingdom, then this battle, whether we win or lose, I am afraid that the result will not be much better." ”

Zhongsun Xuan Ting frowned deeply.

He couldn't help but wonder what Song Guo's purpose was in doing this.

But obviously, he had a hard time coming up with a result. Because, the Song State had no reasonable motive for providing firearms to Great Xia at all.

After a while, Zhongsun Xuan Ting said again: "Do we want to withdraw the army and report this matter back to the imperial court before making a decision?" ”

Helian looked at him and nodded.

On this day, Helian Cheng and Zhongsun Xuanting led the retreat towards the Great Wall.

There were 800 li in the army and the urgent battle report was transmitted to the Zhongxing Mansion of Western Xia first.

Western Xia and Great Xia made a big show of fanfare, and they had the posture of killing a fish and breaking the net, but as a result, they only had a little contact in this Hengshandu, and it ended hastily.

Only two days later.

Helian Cheng and Zhongsun Xuanting were still on the way to withdraw their troops, and the report of the 800-mile urgent battle had already reached the Zhongxing Mansion in Western Xia.

For the time being, Zhongsun Qifu, who is in charge of the government, is on duty in the central yamen, and there are Helian Dong and other famous ministers of Western Xia in the room, and I don't know what they are discussing.

While they were talking, they heard a eunuch outside shouting at a sharp voice: "Eight hundred miles from the front line is rushing to ......."

Then a dusty soldier hurriedly "barged" into the room.

The soldier knelt down and said, "Taishi, the two commanders of Helian and Zhongsun are in a hurry for eight hundred miles!" ”

Zhongsun Qifu was moved, didn't care about it anymore, and quickly got up and took the battle report from the soldier.

After only a few seconds of opening it, his face turned a little pale, and his hands trembled slightly.

When Helian Dong and the others looked at him like this, their eyes were full of worry and doubt.

Helian Dong asked, "Taishi...... Could it be ...... Is the front line defeated? ”

Although he asked, there was a deep suspicion in his eyes.

He knows what kind of firearms ratio there is in the Western Xia Forbidden Army now, and it stands to reason that there is no reason to defeat the Great Xia army when he goes to conquer it. And it was defeated so quickly.

But Zhongsun Qifu's expression told him that this battle report was definitely not good news.

I want to talk about "The Reborn Lao Tzu is the Emperor" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
