Chapter 667: When did our Great Song Army become so awesome? (1st Update)

Chapter 667

Let those Western Xia defenders feel the earth-shattering sound all the time, so that those Western Xia people can't rest at all, and then they drummed up this kind of stone throwing machine that was once again shamelessly named after His Majesty the Emperor.

And this kind of ammunition with a very long range, the ammunition used is actually a boulder weighing more than 100 catties, such a picture, even if Han Zhongyan has not seen it with his own eyes, he can imagine how much shock and horror it will bring to people when pieces of stones that are almost half a door panel fall from mid-air.

After reading the military newspaper and taking off his glasses, Han Zhongyan's face was full of relief and expectation.

"The old man is really a little curious, it has only been less than half a year, and the disadvantage of my Great Song Dynasty against Western Xia has suddenly reversed. If you let Wang Wushan, this kid, continue to stay on the edge of the road in Shaanxi for a year and a half. It doesn't seem too surprising if Western Xia is pacified......"

"Sir, you're not kidding, are you? Although Lord Xiao Wang can be regarded as a rare talent in my Great Song Dynasty, in the past six months, the Great Song Dynasty has been able to win consecutive battles, but it is not all the work of his Wang Wushan. The henchman next to him couldn't help but look at his master in surprise.

"Although it is not all his credit, have you noticed that behind every victory, you can find the shadow of his king Wushan, which seems to be everywhere."

"Before, when Huanzhou City was besieged by nearly 200,000 Western Xia men and horses, if it weren't for the addition of a large number of Yuanyou crossbows with excellent durability and durability, as well as the kind of Yuanyou cement that only takes one night to repair the cracks in the city wall as before, and is as solid as a rock, do you think Zhang Qi would be able to defend it so easily?"

"If it weren't for his Wang Wushan trying his best to persuade Zhe Keshi in Hongdezhai, there would be no battle of Hongdezhai, and if he hadn't volunteered to build a defense line in the inner gorge of Maling, it is very likely that the victory of the battle of Hongdezhai would be greatly inferior."

"The reason for this battle of the Jianing Military Division is not because this guy proposed a whimsical attempt to persuade Liang Yikui to surrender, and then let Mi Shunde know the news."

"As a result, the lord of the Western Xia sent a large army south, which gave me a good opportunity for the Great Song Dynasty to seize Yanzhou, and in the end, Liang Yikui led 100,000 soldiers to return to the Song Dynasty, and sacrificed Youzhou and Hongzhou, so that my Great Song Dynasty could restore the old ......."

"All of this, there is the shadow of this kid mixed in it, it is either the old man, it is Master Su, I am afraid I have to admit that if there is no such kid, how can he win a great victory like destroying the Western Xia this time when he comes to the north to fight against Western Xia."

"After listening to what you said, it seems that it is really like that." The henchman slammed his tongue. "Before, I thought that this little Wang was just a little smart, but now it seems that he is watching people through the cracks in the small door."

"Don't bully the young man, the ancients don't deceive me." Han Zhongyan stroked his long beard and said with emotion.

On the day of the end of the battle in the ancient city of Wuyan, the Yuanyou trebuchet, which had been destroyed, was burned by Wang Yang's order. The other three Yuanyou stone throwers were closely guarded by a battalion of elite soldiers assigned by Zhe Keshi, and after being loaded, they were transported directly to Hongzhou.

As for the ancient city of Wuyan, which has become a ruined camp, 2,000 soldiers were left to guard it. As for the more than 6,000 prisoners of war with wounded legs, they were also escorted, limping with the support of their comrades, and headed towards Hongzhou.

Three days later, the news that the ancient city of Wuyan had killed 5,000 enemies, captured more than 20,000 enemies, and captured more than 41,800 war horses once again shook Bianliang, Tokyo.

Zhao Xu looked at the good news in his hand again and again, and seemed to be a little lacking in self-confidence, what the hell, when did the army of the Great Song Dynasty become so awesome?

Think about when his father was alive, being able to fight with the Western Xia and kill more than 1,000 enemies was a big victory, and if he could win a few small camps, that was the work of expanding the land.

However, when it comes to oneself, it seems that fighting a battle cannot be called a victory without killing three or five thousand enemies, and if one does not capture more than ten thousand prisoners of war, it cannot be called a great victory, and if one does not expand the territory for three or five hundred miles, it is as if he is embarrassed to meet people.

"It seems that Your Majesty is very happy, but why do you still sigh for a long time?" The queen Meng beside her had long noticed the strangeness of the Son of Heaven, and finally asked at this time.

"Zitong, you don't know, in the past, my Great Song Dynasty fought with the enemy, and those who killed more than a thousand enemies were a great victory. Now, in less than half a year, the Shaanxi border army has expanded more than 1,500 miles of territory, gained the land of three states, killed thousands of enemies in each battle, captured more than 10,000 enemies, and obtained countless horses, cattle and sheep......"

"How can such credit be described? How do I get a reward? You can't let those heroes be wronged. That's what worries me the most. After Zhao Xu said a lot, he sighed helplessly.

Sometimes the degree of happiness will even make you feel helpless, which is something that you never felt when your father was alive, right? Zhao Xu's heart couldn't help but think of it.

"Your Majesty's words are wrong, and the headaches should be those civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty." Meng Shi couldn't help but smile gently. She also saw that His Majesty had a headache, and it was clear that he didn't want to walk at night in brocade clothes, and wanted to show off a few more times at herself.

"Having said that, but I am the son of the Great Song Dynasty after all, and those ministers, let them do this errand, I am afraid that they have wronged the heroes."

"Your Majesty is worried that you have wronged Mr. Wushan." Meng Shi's eyes rolled and blinked slyly.

"It is worthy of being my pillow person, the one who knows me, and Zitong is also." Zhao Xu laughed and said again and again.

"These days, I am waiting by His Majesty's side, and the concubines also know a little about Mr. Wushan's merits. If there is no Mr. Wushan, if there is no victory of Hong Dezhai, if there is no Mr. Wushan, I am afraid that few people can think of persuading the power of a country, and now, if there is no Mr. Wushan to develop this Yuanyou stone throwing machine, I am afraid that the battle of this ancient city of Wuyan will not win so heartily......"

"Zitong is right, but there are still many credits you haven't mentioned, whether it is Yuanyou cement, or Yuanyou crossbow, Yuanyou armor, all of them have made contributions in this series of wars. And these are all from the hands of Wang Wushan. ”

"It's a pity that among the civil and military forces of this Manchu Dynasty, most of them are for those who have sought personal gain, and Wang Wushan is extremely talented, and he has made meritorious contributions at a young age, these people are afraid that they will inevitably be secretly jealous......"

"So, Your Majesty, you are worried that the ministers of the court and the central government will deliberately suppress ...... because of this" Meng naturally understood what his husband meant.

"Not bad." Zhao Xu stroked his brows, and said with some embarrassment.

"The imperial grandmother wept for the sake of my Great Song Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji. Now, the imperial grandmother has just withdrawn from the curtain and no longer listens to politics. If this is the case, there will be a conflict between me and the minister, although I am not afraid, but after all, I do not want the imperial grandmother to worry. ”
