Chapter 20 Eating Pot Pulp?

Compared with Pingxia City, the fighting in Lingping Village is much more cruel.

Liu Xi ordered the soldiers to attack from all sides. The artillery bombardment continued, and one by one the explosives were transported up, and with the earth-shattering explosion, the four gates were blown apart in turn, opening their arms to the Song army.

Under the cover of artillery, Liu Xi's troops quickly attacked the city wall and entered the Lingping Village, but who knew that they immediately fell into a bitter battle in the streets and alleys.

Compared with Pingxia City, Lingping Village does not have an inner city, and there are only six or seven thousand sergeants in it, but it is these six or seven thousand people that have brought huge casualties to Liu Xi's subordinates.

With a "whoosh", a feather arrow broke the wall and shot out, and the Song army who ran forward was caught off guard, his neck was shot through, blood gushed like a spring, and he fell to the ground.

A group of Song soldiers was moving forward along the street, and suddenly the doors on both sides of the street behind them opened, and a group of party soldiers flashed out, arrows flew together, and the Song soldiers fell to the ground one after another, and there were almost no survivors.

The grenadiers of the Song army who followed behind threw out several earth-shattering thunderbolts, and after a violent explosion, the sneak attack of the Xia army suffered countless casualties, and the earth-shattering screams also sounded in the house.

A woman hides in horror in the corner of a ruined wall, her face hidden behind her knees, shivering. As soon as Song Jun, who entered the house, turned his head, the woman took out the short knife in her arms, quickly stood up, and stabbed Song Jun in the back of the heart.

"You ......"

The young Song Bing's face was full of surprise, as if he didn't believe the scene in front of him. The woman stabbed a few times, and Song Bing's chest was red.

By the way, the app I've been using recently is supported by Android and Apple phones!

"Third brother!"

Before the woman's knife could be drawn, several Song soldiers came in, and one of them screamed, and then several spears stabbed her, and the woman had a few more blood holes on her body, and she fell to the ground in a daze.

Lingping Village is not like Pingxia City, Pingxia City is a complete military village, except for the soldiers guarding the city and the families of a few people, there is no one else. There are still thousands of Xia people in Lingping Village, seeing that the artillery and earth-shaking thunder of the Song army have destroyed the entire dwelling, these people also launched a madness.

"Straight sissy thief!"

As a veteran of the Western Army, Lao Wangtou fought a lifelong battle, but he didn't expect to be coming, but he was attacked by the people.

"You guy, it seems that you are also Han, how can you help the party members and harm us Han?"

The old king stood in a dirt chamber with a collapsed wall, clutching the wound on his waist, blood pouring down.

"It doesn't matter what kind of Han people you are, party members, you can't harm Lao Tzu's house!"

The young man was full of words, the knife in his hand was dripping with blood, and he blurted out and scolded: "Lao Tzu finally bought some family business, and let you ruin it all." Lao Tzu doesn't kill you, who will you kill!"

The young man pointed a knife at the old king's head and protected the woman behind him. The woman has a fair complexion and a bit of beauty, thinking that she is a young man's Hun.

"You shit, a broken house, you want Lao Tzu's life!"

The old king gasped and scolded: "The party people robbed your house, why don't you go desperately?" Lao Tzu didn't harm you, but you attacked Lao Tzu, you pig and dog who are not as good as animals!"

The young man's face turned red, and he was just about to go up to deal with the old king's head, when two Song soldiers with spears in their hands rushed in.

"Old Wangtou, what's wrong with you?"

After the Song soldier who took the lead finished asking, he noticed the bloody short knife in the young man's hand, and his eyes immediately became cold.

"Heizi, sixth brother, don't mention it, my heart softened a little and I got this way."

The old king shook his head, his face full of embarrassment.

"You it! You are looking for death!"

The two Song soldiers had gloomy faces, stepped forward with spears in their hands, and fought around the young man.

The three of them were all powerful, but the Song soldiers were well-trained and had armor to protect themselves, and the young man was soon shot several times, drenched in blood, and fell down screaming.

"This little lady looks good!"

A Song soldier rolled his eyes and said to another companion: "Sixth brother, you first help the old king's head out to heal." Brother, I have some things to do. ”

The sixth brother shook his head and helped the old king out. Song Bing put his arms around the woman, carried it on his shoulders, and walked towards the inner room.

"You... This fowl... Beast No... As ......"

The young man was covered in blood, lying on the ground, and his mouth wanted to speak, but he was already weak.

Song Bing ignored the woman's crying and struggle, and while taking off the woman's clothes, he said coldly: "Beasts are not as good? Lao Tzu will let you see today, what kind of beast method Lao Tzu has!"

Although the Western Army was strong in combat, its military discipline was also poor. These people have just been brought under the rule of the Loyal and Righteous Army, and they have not yet been trained by military discipline, so they are naturally wild and difficult to change.

Liu Rui had just entered the front street with a group of soldiers, and in several earthen houses facing the street, countless feather arrows shot out, and the Song soldiers in front of them fell in an instant, and many people howled in pain.

"Straight sissy thief!"

Liu Rui was furious and shouted loudly: "Artillery, blow up these dogs for me!"

Several guns were aimed at the thatched-roof mud huts, and the gunners loaded their ammunition and lit the wires.

"Pong! Disheveled! Ponto!"

The earthen house was shattered and collapsed, and the party soldiers hidden inside screamed loudly. The soldiers quickly went up, spears stabbed, and the party soldiers and civilians in the room were covered with blood holes, and no one was spared.

"Set up the artillery and flatten the stockade!"

The first battle in Pingxia was so difficult, which really surprised Liu Xi's expectations. Looking at the wounded soldiers who were constantly being carried out of the city, he frowned and gave the order.

One artillery cannon after another was pulled into the city by the soldiers from the various gates, and the gunners loaded their ammunition and began to bombard the houses indiscriminately.

One earthen wall after another was destroyed, houses were smashed down, and Song soldiers put smoke behind them, forcing the recalcitrant party soldiers and people to flee from the houses.

Everywhere there was dust, everywhere there were party soldiers and civilians running out of the dilapidated houses, countless people panicked, even crying and screaming, and some people even knelt down and kowtowed.

"Kowtow and beg for mercy, what were you doing just now?"

Liu Xi waved his hand, and the spear in Song Jun's hand stabbed down rapidly, and the beggers for mercy were drenched in blood and cried.

Song Junyu flew arrows and artillery roared, shooting desperately at all movable objects.

Large swaths of corpses were planted on the ground, blood and water were pooled on the dilapidated streets, corpses were piled up on top of each other, and Lingping Village had become a slaughtering ruin.

There was a lot of noise on the field of Lingpingzhai University, and a large number of party soldiers and their families gathered. These party soldiers wanted to flee on war horses, but they were constantly forced back by the Song army at the gate of each village.

At the north gate of Lingping Village, a team of six or seven hundred party knights rode on horseback, wanting to escape from the north gate, but they caught up with a team of Song saber shieldmen and pikemen who had just entered the village.

"Brothers, follow me and kill it!"

The party officer sat on his war horse and roared loudly: "If you want the whole family to die, you will hide behind." If you want to live, follow me to kill this group of Song dogs in front of you!"

"Kill Song Dog! Kill Song Dog!"

The party knights brandished their weapons, each shouted indiscriminately, and followed behind the party officers, and killed together.

When the two armies met, the Song saber shieldmen and pikemen, and the cavalry of the Dang Xiang people were about to collide head-on.

The two sides have not yet looked at each other, and they are already whistling with feather arrows, "swishing" endlessly, and earth-shaking thunder "all through", one after another. Soldiers on both sides are constantly falling.

"Shoot!"

The party knights rained down arrows, quickly shot down more than 100 Song soldiers in front of them, and followed the battle

The horses galloped, and the party knights broke into the large array of the Song army.

Long spears were like a forest, many party knights were stabbed off their horses, and countless Song soldiers were knocked over by horses and cut to the ground by long knives. The Song army behind saw that the situation was not good, and flashed to both sides of the street, making way for a smooth road in the middle.

The party knights were ecstatic, and they galloped wildly, trying to escape from the gate.

On the line of life and death, when they were about to arrive in front of the gate of the village, they saw countless small cannons densely packed, the black muzzles of the guns were facing them, and the torches in the hands of the gunners had been placed on the body of the artillery.

"Shoot these Song dogs!"

The party knights' eyes were blood-red, and they opened their bows and arrows, desperately shooting at the artillery positions in front, but the distance was not enough, and the feathered arrows they shot reached the gunners, and they were already weak and fell to the ground.

"Pong! Disheveled! Ponto!"

Countless iron bullets shot out, endlessly. The party knights were beaten down one by one, some of them were completely broken, human organs were scattered all over the ground, blood turned the dust on the ground into plasma, the ground was full of screaming and groaning wounded, and the corpses of men and horses were piled up in the streets.

A gust of wind blew, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the air, mixed with the smell of blood, which made people sick and sick.

In the Song army, many soldiers were pale. Although some people participated in the Great Battle of Yaozhou, Shaanxi, it was the first time they had experienced such a large-scale firearm killing.

"Bring all the small cannons, surround the big school field, and fight quickly!"

Liu Xi looked at the sky, his face extremely impatient. Even he himself felt that the time for this battle was too long.

Under the artillery bombardment of the Song army, the party soldiers on the colonel's field fell in large areas like a wind sweeping away leaves. With the large-scale influx of the Song army, the party soldiers on the teaching field were soon annihilated by the torrent of the Song army.

When everything was quiet, another hour passed. While Liu Xi asked people to report the victory to the army, he ordered to search the city and clean up the battlefield.

"Big brother, beheaded 4,912 levels, captured 624 war horses, captured 768 party soldiers, and 1,569 civilians......"

Liu Xi nodded, he looked at the corpses piled up on the school field, and said with relief: "The Song and Xia wars have been fought for decades, and such a big gain is rare, and the brothers have worked hard."

He turned his head and continued to ask, "What are the casualties of our army?"

This is his first battle in the Loyal and Righteous Army, and he has to explain to his younger brother Liu Qi, and even more to himself.

To his gratification, the city was successfully broken and won a complete victory. As for the casualties of the soldiers, they were expected.

"Big brother, our army lost 4,213 people, 631 seriously wounded, and 1,324 lightly wounded, all of them were foot soldiers."

A small Lingping village actually lost 5,000 soldiers!

Liu Xi's face became gloomy, he nodded lightly, and his voice trembled slightly.

"Pass the order and tell the brothers that they have done a good job today, and I will ask for credit for them in front of the marshal when I turn back!"

A large number of captives were brought over, basically all of them were Western Xia soldiers in military uniforms, and a small number of ordinary people in various costumes. These people have different complexions, and many of them are looking left and right, and their hearts are uneasy.

"Big brother, these are the surrendered party soldiers, as well as the people in the village, how to deal with them?"

Liu Rui said in a low voice: "Among these captives, there are a lot of Han people!"

"When they killed my brothers in the Western Army, they didn't think they were Han!"

Liu Xi's gaze was instantly cold: "The captives are all killed, the people are screened, and those who oppose our army will be killed!"

In the land of the border fortress, the Han and Tibetan are mixed, the people are fierce, there are Han people under the rule of Western Xia, and there are party members in the Great Song Dynasty, but when the war comes, if the fighting is tragic and abnormal, and you want to be safe and sound, it is stupid and naïve.
