There are few people in the Western Xia Kingdom, and basically all the people are soldiers!

In the Western Xia, where the people are fierce, the elite troops can fight against the Jin army, and even the most elite Tiefutu in the Jin Kingdom also learned the iron harriers of the Western Xia people, so you can imagine how strong the combat effectiveness of the Western Xia people is.

And this time Chen Yan has to face the encirclement and suppression of the 100,000-strong army of Western Xia, and it is impossible to say that he is not nervous.

Chen Yan ordered the army to start repairing, and after the army entered the city, it occupied the original military camp of the Tanguts, and the logistics department began to quickly organize the Huotou army to bury the pot and cook.

The medical battalion is also running at full speed, treating the wounded who were wounded in the battle just now!

After Zhou Lide handed over the statistical results of the treasury to Chen Yan, Chen Yan was also shocked.

"More than 100,000 weapons of all kinds, more than 30,000 armors, including 1,000 iron armor, 30,000 leather armor, 300 siege crossbows, and 50 catapults."

"Millions of stones of grain, countless pieces of cloth, money and goods!"

So many supplies are enough to fight a national war.

Even the beggar army changed its guns, and Chen Yan fully opened the treasury of Zhehe City.

The grassroots officers in the begging army took people to register and receive weapons, and all the weapons of the begging army became the Western Xia standard.

While the quality may not be as good as the Swinger's standard ring-headed sword, it is certainly better than their original weapon.

Coupled with the more than 30,000 pieces of armor, the combat effectiveness of the beggar army has increased a lot!

Chen Yan stood at the head of the city, looking at the end of the sky in the distance, and in a trance, he seemed to see rolling black clouds pressing down, trying to crush him to death and crush him.

"Pass the order down, rectify the defense of the city, and be sure to drain the last drop of blood in Western Xia in Zhehe City."

With Chen Yan's order, the Dang Capture Army and the Beggar Army entered a state of readiness, and pieces of stone and rolling logs were carried to the city, and a cauldron of boiling gold juice was carried up the city wall.

Siege crossbows, catapults were also ready, artillery muskets were loaded, ready to fire at any time, and boxes of sky-shaking thunder were placed at the head of the city.

The defenders of Zhehe City were quickly routed, and the preparations they had made to defend the city were cheaper than the army that invaded the city.

Chen Yan is preparing to play an offensive and defensive battle and street fighting with the Tangut people, preparing to kill and injure a large number of the Tangut people's living force.

Field battles are impossible!

There are more than 20,000 cavalry in the Western Xia army, not to mention that there are 1,000 Poxi troops and 2,000 iron harriers.

With 20,000 cavalry in the field, it is easy to teach infantry how to behave!

If the tens of thousands of troops under Chen Yan's command were all elite divisions like the Danglu Army, it was really possible for Chen Yan to go to the field to face the Western Xia army.

But the problem is that he is not!

Most of his subordinates are just beggars who fight with a brave spirit, and they have not experienced much intense training at all, how can they go to fight a large number of cavalry in the field, he is not tired of life.

And if you fight offensive and defensive battles or street battles, Chen Yan's chances of winning will be much greater!

At the very least, the Poxi Army, the Iron Harrier, and the 20,000 cavalry of the Western Xia Army, the infantry used for mountain warfare was abolished, and could only be used as ordinary foot soldiers.

The captives can beat them out of the, and the bravery of the beggar army also has a place to play!

Moreover, there is no shortage of food and materials in Zhehe City now, and if Chen Yan wants to defend it, it is no problem to defend it in Zhehe City for a year and a half.

……

Thirty miles outside the city, the three Western Xia armies joined forces.

They're camping here, putting things in order!

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Yeli Rongde, who had just escaped from Zhehe City, had black and gray stains on his face, and the armor on his body was also very tattered and embarrassed.

He knelt in front of Richard Goha, his body trembling with fear.

"Handsome! The subordinates are guilty, the subordinates should not abandon the city and flee, and ask the marshal to punish him, but the subordinates really can't hold it. ”

"Yeli Rongde, you are really so bold, you are ordered by the king to guard one side, you dare to abandon the city and leave, how can I serve the people if I don't kill you?"

Richard Geha said in a cold voice, he also had a headache, and even the city of Zhehe was breached, and Li Qianshun didn't know how angry he would be.

"The handsome man spares his life, the handsome man spares his life, his subordinates are willing to atone for their crimes, and please give his subordinates a chance!"

Yeli Rongde's head slammed on the ground with a muffled thud.

"Dashuai, I didn't mean to come to Rongde, give him a chance to atone for his sins."

Brother Yeli Rong on the side spoke.

"Yes, Dashuai, who hasn't made a mistake yet, let him atone for his sins."

Ren Dejing also echoed that he was a Han and didn't mind buying a good one for the Yeli family.

Richard snorted heavily, acquiescing to the plea of his two lieutenants.

"Let's talk about it, how did you lose it, the tens of thousands of defenders of Zhehe City didn't hold it for even a day?!"

Richard looked at Yeli Rongde and asked.

"Great Marshal, the enemy army has a weapon capable of blowing down the city wall, which can make a thunderous sound, and a tubular weapon that can shoot lead balls, which is more powerful than a trebuchet......"

Wild Glory recounted to Richard how he lost the castle.

Richard frowned slightly, and his heart was full of thoughts.

What kind of weapons are these?

After the iron harriers who had been robbed of their coins returned to the Xixia Royal City, they also said that the enemy had a weapon that could make a loud noise, and the power was extremely powerful, and the war horses were terrified......

"Report! Marshal, the Song army has been deployed in Zhehe City, as if they are waiting for us to attack. ”

A sergeant dressed as a sentry came in from outside the tent, knelt in front of Richard and said.

"What is the banner of the Song army?"

Richard Geha asked, the Western Xia people have always thought that the Dang Capture Army was the army of the Great Song Dynasty, and the last time their New Year's coin was robbed, the King of Western Xia also sent an envoy to the Great Song Dynasty to ask for the guilt.

The angry Zhao Ji blew his beard and stared at him!

"Report to the marshal, it is the governor of the Dang Capture Army, and the Governor Chen of the begging army!"

The Sentinel said.

"Pass the order, the army will be pulled out, I want to see what kind of character this is, he dares to provoke my Great Xia Kingdom repeatedly, is it really easy for my Great Xia Kingdom to bully?!"

Richard said with a cold voice in his voice.

The Western Xia was opened, and the mighty army of more than 100,000 people rushed to the direction of Zhehe City.

The original Western Xia army had 100,000 people, plus the tens of thousands of people who fled from Zhehe City, the number of the Western Xia army swelled to 130,000 again.

The 130,000 army, including more than 20,000 cavalry, was placed on the ground, and from a distance, you could see a large puff of smoke and dust rising up.

Only then did Chen Yan realize that "black clouds crushing the city and wanting to destroy the city" is not an exaggeration, but a realistic description!

The momentum of hundreds of thousands of people is really terrifying!
