Chapter 840: The True Purpose of the Despicable Song People (First Update)
Chapter 840
Li Mao nodded, his gaze fell on the moonlit night, and the firelight was like a riverside scattered with stars. "General Liang, when can we cross the river?"
"Everything is ready, I'll send you, two generals, if you are not tired, then cross the river as soon as possible, let's burn the Xingqing warehouse, and toss the tomb of the Xixia king, I'm afraid that this time, Li Qianshun will definitely want to find us at all costs."
"Well, without further ado, immediately cross the river with the whole army, and tell the brethren that after crossing the river and joining the army, we will have a good rest, and eat and drink with great fish and meat." Luo Ping also nodded thoughtfully, turned his head and instructed the lieutenant general beside him.
"Okay, tell the brethren to light the torches and light the ferry for the troops of Generals Lee and Luo."
Soon, torches were lit one after another near the ferry, illuminating the entire riverbank as bright as day.
They had been marching for several days, and the exhausted soldiers knew very well that the things they had done had annoyed the entire Western Xia, and now if they did not cross the Yellow River as soon as possible, they would probably be trapped and killed in the hinterland of Western Xia, to be slaughtered.
At this moment, whether it is in the direction of Xingqing Mansion or along the river, there are a large number of Western Xia soldiers and horses, searching for those Song troops who dare to burn down Xingqing Cang and damage the tombs of Western Xia kings.
And the closest unit to them was less than a hundred miles away.
#####
In the early morning, the sound of fighting inside and outside the entire city of Xinyanzhou resounded all over the world, and countless Western Xia soldiers attacked frantically as if they had been pricked with chicken blood needles and eaten gunpowder, regardless of their own casualties.
This kind of intensity of the offensive has made the pressure on the Song army in the city more and more intense, and there have even been several consecutive cases of being broken up on the city wall by Western Xia soldiers.
"General, the Xixia people are going crazy, our people are about to be unable to resist, especially those van troops, there are already signs of collapse, and please send troops to the city to reinforce as soon as ......possible."
A general hurried to the Seed Master Dao, who was commanding the battle at the West Gate, and pleaded loudly.
The seed master wiped the sweat on his face, and the bloody waist knife stood on the ground, and at this time, he also felt a little unable to support it. "That's it, beat the drum and give the order, let all the eight thousand sons go to the city for reinforcements, and the enemy army will definitely be killed!"
"No! Why are you still stunned, why don't you hurry up and beat the drums! The general was overjoyed, and hurriedly rushed to the drum array, shouting loudly.
One by one, the thick drumsticks hit the huge war drum surface sewn from thick cowhide, and the earth-shattering war drums suddenly resounded throughout Xinyanzhou.
After hearing the rhythm of the drums, the Great Song Iron Horsemen, who had been waiting under the four gates for a long time, all showed overjoyed expressions, grabbed their respective weapons, roared the sound of the Great Song Dynasty's victory, and rushed towards the city wall along the ladders made of red bricks.
Originally, the Song army in the city, which was already gradually tired, and the box army that began to disperse, after the appearance of eight thousand ironclad warriors, suddenly became full of morale and attacked the city wall.
When they saw a large number of fresh troops of the Song Kingdom rushing to the city, waving the weapons in their hands to harvest the lives of the robes, they couldn't help but reveal a feeling called despair at this moment.
Rinda Soppo threw his horsewhip to the ground under the castle and let out a wail like a desperate beast. "The way of the planter, despicable and shameless, you must not die well!!"
Naturally, the roar of Nita's Soho could not reach the ears of the cultivator who was directing the battle on the city wall outside of Rixu. On the contrary, it was the Western Xia soldiers around him who heard the despair of the Western Xia Zhongshu Ling from this desperate cry.
The 8,000 ironclad new force that suddenly appeared simply and neatly annihilated or expelled all the Western Xia warriors who attacked the city, and took the initiative on the city wall back into the hands of the Song army.
The regained morale and courage followed, using long-range weapons such as spears and crossbows in their hands, and resolutely threw themselves into battle once again.
By the time the Tanguts withdrew from the battle, the sky was already bright, and the scorching sun suddenly jumped out of the horizon, reflecting the surface of the big river on the bank of Xinyanzhou City.
The soldiers took off the iron helmets on their heads, wiped the sweat or blood stains on their faces, raised the weapons in their hands with relief, and shouted to the sky, and the voice of the Great Song Dynasty Wansheng once again resounded on the banks of the river.
"My lord, I didn't expect this person to endure for so long, it turns out that there are so many soldiers and horses in the city who have never been used......" A general beside Renduo Zongbao couldn't help but sit on the grass with a butt, and said in frustration.
In the past few days of attacking Yanzhou, the casualties of the Western Xia elite have not been small, and before, the increasingly weak and weak resistance of the Song army made the Western Xia people seem to see the hope of victory.
And just last night, Nita Soho suddenly ordered the generals to be summoned, vowing to break the city today, and the whole army attacked the new city in a big way.
When they saw that they would be able to win, the nearly 10,000 elites of the Song army suddenly appeared, which directly made the ambition of the Western Xia warriors to win directly cold.
In the end, it failed again. Renduozong Bao Tie blushed, staring at the battle flag of the Song State on the city, and was silent for a long time.
He was entrusted by the lord of the country, led the last bit of the Western Xia Kingdom, and was ambitious, insisting on taking advantage of the Liaoxia coalition army to besiege Youzhou, raid Yanzhou, and strive to recapture this extremely important financial and tax land for the Western Xia.
But as a result, a fortified city suddenly appeared and stopped the progress of the 100,000 army. Let the Western Xia's dream of seizing Yanzhou with lightning speed come to naught.
So much time has passed now, and the 100,000 division is still squatting here counting ants. Seeing that the strategy that was previously formulated is about to come to naught.
And before, a Song army division was left with the hinterland of Western Xia empty, and ran into the territory of Western Xia to burn, kill and loot. Renduo Zongbao knew that the other party wanted to besiege Wei and save Zhao, so he just sent a reinforcement, and then continued to storm the fortress.
But as a result, he still couldn't take it, just yesterday, after receiving an urgent letter from Wei Ming Ah Wu, Renduozong kept the truth hairy.
I never thought that the Song army was so bold and reckless, and actually went deep into the suburbs of the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom, not only burned the very important Xingqing Cang, but also destroyed the tombs of the Western Xia kings.
The lord of the country, Li Qianshun, fainted on the spot after hearing the news, and Renduo Zongbao ordered the siege of the city at all costs.
However, the Song army did not collapse as expected, but only forced the Song army's hole cards out, and it turned out that there were more than 10,000 elite Song troops in the city who never showed up.
From this point of view, the Song army must have done it on purpose, I am afraid that this new city is just a bait, and their real purpose is to burn down the Xingqing warehouse and destroy the tombs of the Western Xia kings.
