Chapter 659: Ximen's Song Army Begins to Move Forward in Formation (First Update)

Chapter 659

"Let them pay attention to vigilance, and never let the Song army have a chance to sneak attack us." Fei Tingdarong's face was extremely ugly, the ancient city of Wuyan was too small, less than five miles long, and the city wall did not use a stone, it was completely made of mud.

A general next to him came to Fei Tingdarong's side and whispered a report. "My lord, now we don't need to worry too much about the Song army's sneak attack, if the Song army wants to attack the city, it has to cross those obstacles that make people have nowhere to stay, in fact, what the last general is most worried about now is in case the Song army moves its position forward......"

"What do you mean?" Fei Ting Darong's pupils couldn't help but shrink when he heard this, and his expression was ugly and fearful to look at this general.

"If the Song army put those weapons with a long range on the original city wall...... At that time, tens of thousands of soldiers in the city, as well as nearly 50,000 war horses, will become the targets of the Song army's terrible weapons. The general's expression was a little desperate.

Fei Ting Darong took a deep breath of cold air, and when he thought that those flying boulders would fall on his head and roll in all directions, and the Western Xia warriors could only wail in despair, Fei Ting Darong felt that his heart was tightly grabbed and painful.

"Are you...... Are you the Mi Bao Shengyong of the Mi Capture Family? Fei Ting Darong turned his head and looked at him carefully a few times, and finally remembered.

"It's the last general." Mi Bao Shengyong hurriedly replied.

"If those Song people move the front forward, how many men do you think we can keep?" Fei Ting Darong was already a little flustered in his heart at the moment, the fighting method adopted by Song Jun was too unreasonable, making him even a little helpless now.

"If the Song army really moves forward and sets up a formation under the city wall, with those long-range siege weapons, they can calmly enter the city, and then use the unique divine arm crossbow of the Song State to throw it to the east of the city......"

"The sons and daughters in the city either cross the river and go, or they have to pick up Yu Yong and fight to the death with the Song army in the city, there are only two ways." Mi Baosheng said in a slumber voice.

Of course, there is a third way, and it is still a way to live, that is, when you see that things cannot be violated, disarm and surrender, and maybe you can exchange for a glimmer of life.

It's just that he doesn't dare and can't say it. Otherwise, it is very likely that the general Fei Ting, who is already extremely angry, will be punished for disturbing the morale of the army.

After Fei Ting Darong gave a series of orders one after another, he turned and left, and hurried straight to the dock located on the east side of the ancient city of Wuyan.

The ancient city of Wuyan happened to occupy a wharf with excellent terrain, and now, the wharf and the open space around the wharf were crowded with soldiers who were about to evacuate, and in a clearing not far from the wharf, only hundreds of craftsmen were busy.

Seeing this scene, after listening to Darong's inquiry, he learned that although the crossing of the river was accelerated day and night, the ice was still intermittent, so the speed was still not fast, but from yesterday to now, more than 5,000 garrisons had been sent to the end of the Wuding River.

It's just that one of the double-decker rafts was overloaded because it was overloaded, causing it to overturn when it approached the east bank of the Wuding River, drowning more than 30 people, and nearly 70 people whose whereabouts are unknown, and there are only about 20 people who struggled to reach the east bank.

"Just casualties, what's the matter, it's better than letting them die like this under the boulder thrown by the Song army." Fei listened to Darong pat the shoulder of the general in charge of crossing the river and admonished. "Don't stop for a moment, and try to get all the remaining garrisons to the other side of the river by early tomorrow morning."

"Your Excellency, don't worry, the last general will do his best."

After the order, Fei Tingda Rong rushed to the place where the raft was made, surrounded by the generals, and the general who was in charge of making the double-decker raft was called inquired carefully, and learned that the speed of making the raft was not optimistic.

This is mainly due to the shortage of timber and manpower, and the difficulty of making double-decker rafts, the lack of skilled craftsmen, and the lack of many tools.

“…… If there is not enough wood, let me demolish the house, there are not enough people, the old man will personally send you manpower, no matter what, every day I have to see at least two new double-decker rafts launched, if you can't do it, the old man wants your head. ”

The general in charge of shipbuilding heard this, saw the gloomy faces of the generals who accompanied him, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and nodded heavily. "The adults have a life, and the small ones will definitely be built as much as possible, but the manpower needs at least 800 people, and if you need to be in such a hurry, I'm afraid that there will be problems with the firmness."

"No matter what, if you do it, you're doing it, understand?"

#####

After all the affairs were taken care of, dragging his tired body, Fei Tingdarong returned to his residence, and left behind several major generals, as well as the Mi Bao Shengyong, who had just caught his attention.

"Now, the Song army can really be said to be overwhelming with power, but our army has experienced several days of suffering, and now it can be said to be exhausted and demoralized, even if you want to fight, it is impossible to fight with the Song army."

"The only thing that is fortunate is that by this time, we have crossed the river with 3,000 wounded and 15,000 garrisons. And there are still more than 30,000 people in the city, before, the old man felt that if the Song people wanted to launch an offensive, they would at least wait for our army to retreat more than halfway before ......."

"But right now, it seems that the Song people shouldn't make it so easy for us, you are all the elite of my Great Xia, the ministers of the pillar stone, now, I don't know if you have a good plan?"

Hearing Fei Ting Darong's words, a group of generals looked at each other one by one, and there was no way to come up with a better plan.

"The last general thinks that in this situation, the only way to do this is to let the soldiers hide among those ruins and broken walls, delay the pace of the Song army's attack as much as possible, and buy time for us to cross the river."

"Yes, I'm afraid that's the only way, but the last general thinks that now, this ancient city of Wuyan is too dangerous, and I ask the adults to quickly move to the east bank of the Wuding River." Mi Shengyong spoke loudly.

Hearing this, those generals all set their eyes on Fei Ting Darong. An ugly bitter smile appeared on Fei Ting's face. "Tens of thousands of sons are still in the city, and if the old man leaves at this time, it will be a fugitive."

The generals persuaded for a long time, but Fei Tingda Rong was stubbornly unwilling to leave. "Okay, your intentions, the old man understands it, this matter, must not be mentioned again, if there is a re-mention, the old man should be dealt with for the crime of disturbing the morale of the army."

And at this moment, a soldier knocked on the door with a hint of panic. "The Song army at the West Gate began to line up and move forward......"
