1310.The Battle of Yokoyama (I)
Outside the city, in the marshal's tent.
Helian sat on the throne. On its left and right sides, there are more than ten generals, as well as a few swords-bearing Tingchao Mansion enshrined.
On the bookcase in front of Helian Cheng, there was a map with a yellow background. The ravines on the map are vertical and horizontal, and it is a detailed map of the military division of Baimaqiang Town in the Western Xia.
Hengshan is like a giant beast, guarding the level.
Helian City had already marked a large black circle on the pattern of the city representing Hengshandu. At this time, he was looking at the circle in a daze.
Although he now has enough powerful firearms in his forbidden army, generals tend to demand simpler, faster, and less effortless ways to achieve victory.
The same is true of Helian City.
If there is a mountain road around Hengshandu that can be used to accompany you, so that the army can make bread after crossing Hengshandu, it is naturally the best thing.
It's a pity that there is no such trail on the left and right sides of Hengshandu.
Helian City not only studied the map, but also consulted the local people. If you want to go to the territory of the military division of Baimaqiang Town, you can only cross through the city from Hengshandu.
Gradually, there was some struggle in Helian Cheng's eyes.
He was probably making the final decision. Since there is no other shortcut, the only way to do this is to storm this crossing.
And at this time, several generals wearing armor and jingling were about to come in outside the tent.
The leader is none other than Zhongsun Xuanting.
He and Helian Cheng each led 40,000 forbidden troops, although Helian Cheng was the commander and he was the deputy commander, but in fact, they each commanded the military horses under their respective commands.
This allows the military to be more flexible, which is also a common thing in this era.
As soon as he entered the tent, Zhongsun Xuanting said to Helian City: "General Helian, there is still no movement in the city of the Great Xia Thieves, do you see if we are ......?"
Helian Cheng frowned slightly, nodded and said, "I also have this intention." Only the Great Xia thieves can't hold out, and I'm afraid that the preparations in the city are quite perfect! ”
"Huh!"
Zhongsun Xuanting chuckled, "Even if they are fully prepared, can they still stop the grenadiers?" ”
Then he said quietly: "And I have a different opinion from General Helian. ”
"Oh?"
Helian Cheng was slightly surprised, "I would like to hear about it." ”
Zhongsun Xuanting's eyes swept over the people in the tent, and said: "Our army came with great fanfare, I thought that the enemy army should have known that our army had borrowed grenadiers, dragon guns and other things from the Great Song Dynasty, so they did not dare to go out of the city to meet the battle. ”
Helian Cheng was slightly moved when he heard this, and he couldn't help but show joy, "General Zhongsun is right, this possibility is really great. ”
Then he no longer hesitated, and shouted in a deep voice: "The people will obey the order! ”
The generals under the command of Helian City in the tent were all handed over, "The last general!" ”
Helian Cheng looked at Zhongsun Xuan Ting with a smile and said, "General Zhongsun, then I will attack first tomorrow, and you will be on the side, how about it?" ”
He also suddenly remembered that he still had to take care of Zhongsun Xuanting's thoughts.
If he directly ordered the generals to prepare for the siege of the city like this, then it is impossible to say that Zhongsun Xuanting still thought that he wanted to steal the credit.
Immediately afterwards, he said: "If General Zhongsun wants to attack, it is okay." I'll lead a large army to respond. ”
"Huh!"
Zhongsun Xuan Tingwen chuckled again, "General Helian, you will lead the army to attack first!" My middle grandson is not such a small-bellied person. ”
He apparently understood what Helian meant. The latter sentence also made Helian City have no scruples.
This battle was of vital significance to the Western Xia, and at this juncture, he had no intention of caring about the merits.
All you need to do is win at the end. No matter how big or small the merit is, in fact, with the status of him and Helian City in Western Xia, it is already difficult to climb up.
The two of them were already the two most powerful and prestigious generals in the Western Xia army. At the same time, it is also the highest status.
Helian Cheng heard Zhongsun Xuan Ting say this, and nodded vigorously, "Then let's work together to destroy all these rebels!" ”
"It's nature!"
Zhongsun Xuanting nodded with a smile, bowed his hand to Helian City again, and then left with the generals.
He came here just to communicate with Helian City. He felt that there was no need to delay the attack on Yokoyama any longer.
The army camped in the wilderness, and the amount of food and grass consumed every day was incalculable.
Following.
It was still a slight light when the sky was slightly bright, and the camp outside Hengshandu was already full of smoke. Of course, the same was true for the first two days.
Only this time, after the army had breakfast, they did not practice again. Instead, under the leadership of Helian City, he headed towards the Hengshan Pass.
The cold wind is bleak, and the flag flutters in the army.
The soldiers of the Western Xia Forbidden Army under the command of Helian City were all armed with divine dragon guns, and some of the soldiers were carrying grenadiers and cannons, which seemed quite high-spirited.
Many of them have seen the power of these Great Song firearms before, and now there are such firearms in the army, of course, they feel that it is inevitable to break through the mountains.
Zhongsun Xuan Ting also immediately led more than 10,000 soldiers out of his big camp.
When they reached about two miles before the camp, they did not go any further.
Although there are 50,000 Great Xia soldiers and horses in Hengshandu, everyone thinks that with the 40,000 forbidden troops under Helian City, it should be more than enough to break through Hengshandu.
And no one knew that at this time, a certain Great Xia general standing at the head of Hengshandu City, looked at the forbidden army that was winding in Helian City, but the corners of his mouth were hooked with a cruel smile.
There were only dozens of artillery carts in the city, but looking at his appearance, he didn't have the slightest worry. This is undoubtedly not normal.
Gradually, Helian Cheng led the Western Xia forbidden army to the city.
Facing the towering Hengshan crossing city wall, the officers and men in the army were all slowly impressed.
Helian Cheng raised his head to look at the head of the city and shouted at the head of the city: "Where is Wu Shangyun!" ”
The main general at the head of the city, who had just shown a cruel smile, stepped forward and took two steps, "Wu Shangyun is here!" I don't know what General Helian thinks! ”
He is the cousin of Wu Deng, the head of the martial arts family, and he is also the former deputy military director of the military department of this white horse strong town. In the entire Western Xia country, he can be regarded as a general with real power and fame.
Although Helian City is the commander of the forbidden army, in front of Wu Shangyun, he is really just a junior.
Seeing Wu Shangyun's answer, Helian Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and said: "General Wu, our major families in Western Xia are originally in the same spirit, and the previous emperors have treated our families well. We are grateful to Dade, and I finally returned to the country, and I should have faithfully assisted Your Majesty. Helian Cheng heard that General Wu was a loyal and righteous man, and he had also made great contributions to the restoration of the country, but now, why is he in the company of thieves? ”
Wu Shangyun at the head of the city snorted coldly, "The cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooking!" The empress does not think of our hard work, and intends to destroy our family, how can we sit idly by? ”
In fact, he is really as Helian Cheng said, he is a quite loyal general. Previously, he had indeed worked hard for the restoration of the Western Xia, and he had a lot of credit.
But now, Wu Shangyun undoubtedly has a deep grudge against Li Xiushu.
In his opinion, the treason of their four major military divisions was all forced by Li Xiushu. I just didn't think that Li Xiushu was like this, but it was also because Wu Deng and others had different intentions.
These people, in the final analysis, are just seeking benefits for their families.
Wu Shangyun is far away in the military division of Baimaqiang Town, and he is a member of the martial family, even if he has a loyal heart, he will inevitably be deceived and assimilated.
Helian Cheng sighed lightly in his heart when he heard Wu Shangyun say this. He knew there was no point in going on.
Since the four major military divisions and the forbidden army were defeated in Lintao Road, there is actually no room for turning around between the two forces.
He arched his hand at the head of the city and shouted coldly: "In this case, the junior can only offend!" ”
Wu Shangyun snorted coldly again, "Just let the horse come!" ”
Both of them are people with internal qi, and such a conversation is quite proud.
"Grenadier!"
Helian raised his spear and shouted.
On the side, there is a flag soldier on the women's car waving the flag.
In the middle of the army, hundreds of soldiers ran to the front of the army.
Many of the soldiers carried grenadiers on their backs, and when they arrived at the army, they hurriedly drove the grenadiers to the ground.
At the head of the city, Wu Shangyun also waved his hand at the back.
Soldiers brought up chests from under the city.
Along the city, a general ran over with his soldiers, opened the box, and his face was full of excitement.
