Hohhot was a large transit city near the border between Mongolia and Western Xia, so the city was often stocked with food, clothing, ammunition and other military equipment, which were to be provided to all the imperial border guard camps within a radius of several hundred miles.

This time, in order to annihilate the plundering army of the Western Xia army along the way, Shi En, the defender of the city, was also ruthless, and directly ordered to move out a large number of explosives stored in the city and bury them around the city.

The mission of the Third Division is to retain and annihilate these Western Xia beasts, so Shi En has been holding back, waiting for the best time to come.

Not long ago, Shi En found that the battle between the two armies had entered a white heat, and it was the time to attack, so he ordered someone to ignite these explosives.

A large amount of gunpowder exploded on all sides of the city, and after the explosion of the huge amount of gunpowder, it was not the crumbling dirt and grass that were used to hurt people, but the invisible but powerful shock wave that spread outward.

In this open area without any shelter, the damage and scope brought by the shock wave are exceptionally huge, and the number of Western Xia soldiers who were directly killed by gunpowder is very small, but the shock wave is too harmful to the human body.

When the overpressure of the shock wave is 0.5 atmospheres, the eardrum of the person is ruptured and the internal organs are injured; when the overpressure is 1 atmosphere, the force acting on the entire torso of the human body can reach 4-5 thousand kilograms, under the pressure of such a large impact force. Severe damage to the internal organs of the human body, especially the rupture of the lungs, liver, spleen, and even death.

The Imperial troops hiding on the city walls were also affected by the shock wave, but fortunately they had all been trained beforehand, so at this moment they put down their hands covering their ears, closed their open mouths, and quickly picked up the weapons around them and started shooting.

At this time, the surviving Western Xia soldiers under the city were all shaking and sluggish because their brains were affected, and they were completely a group of living targets with no ability to resist.

The battle that was originally evenly matched, because of this earth-shattering explosion, suddenly changed the situation and became a one-sided massacre.

The Tangut people, who couldn't even dodge, were killed by the imperial soldiers with muskets one by one, and the four gates of Hohhot City were opened, and all the imperial defenders rushed out of the city to kill the enemy.

Because the guard company and reconnaissance company directly under the division had horses, they all rushed to the city with the division commander Shi En, and directly killed Li Zhizhong, who was on the periphery of the battlefield and was not affected.

The musket bayonets equipped by the soldiers of the Imperial Army were actually not practical compared to other cold weapons, and were used as daggers by ordinary soldiers, but they came in handy at this time.

The imperial soldiers who came to the battlefield outside the city found that the Western Xia soldiers were powerless to resist after their brains were damaged, so they immediately stopped shooting, and directly brandished muskets and stabbed them to death with bayonets.

As the imperial army in the city poured out, a bloody storm immediately set off in the place where they passed, leaving only the corpses of the Tangut people all over the land.

As the so-called soldier against soldier, general against general, Shi En, who was holding the family heirloom wind splitting knife, stared at Li Zhizhong, the general of Western Xia, not far away, in his heart, only by killing the main general of Western Xia, this war could be considered a successful end.

When this unexpected explosion just happened, Li Zhizhong, who was on the periphery of the battlefield, was also shocked, and when he recovered from the aftermath of the sound and shock wave, what he saw was the scene of his soldiers being arbitrarily slaughtered by the imperial army.

Li Zhizhong glanced at the battlefield and found that in addition to his own personal guards, the soldiers who attacked the four walls of Hohhot City had no combat effectiveness, and he was completely defeated this time.

All the 50,000 elite soldiers he brought from Western Xia were buried here, and he didn't grab any food and supplies, even if Li Zhizhong could go back alive, it was estimated that he would be killed by the angry lord Li Qianshun, so he had no idea of escaping.

Just when Li Zhizhong, the chief general of Western Xia, was discouraged and pondered whether he should apologize for his crimes, he suddenly saw a general wearing the uniform of a high-ranking imperial officer, riding a horse and killing him.

Li Zhizhong had learned about the uniform style and rank of the imperial army, so he quickly recognized it, this person was the Hohhot city guard who stood at the head of the city just now, if he could capture the main general of the other party, then if he used it to blackmail the imperial army, maybe he still had a chance of life.

Shi En is now Li Zhizhong's life-saving straw, and after seeing him, he immediately lifted his spirits, and hurriedly regrouped his own soldiers around him to urge the horse to meet him.

When the two sides were still dozens of meters apart, Li Zhizhong instructed his own soldiers: "Don't kill him, we will catch him alive!" ”

"Whoosh ......"

These Li Zhizhong's personal soldiers also knew the importance of Shi En, the enemy general, so after bending their bows and arrows, they deliberately avoided him, and shot arrows at Shi En's crotch and the guards behind him.

"Humph! Want to catch me? You are dreaming! Shi En, who was galloping, also heard Li Zhizhong's words, and immediately shouted, pulled out the revolver on his waist with his left hand, and fired continuously at the opposite side.

Compared with the bows and arrows of the Tanguts, the Imperial Army was equipped with revolvers, which can shoot six rounds in a row, although the range is shorter, but the rate ......of fire is extremely fast.

The arrows on both sides bounced back and forth, the bows and arrows of the Tanguts had a long range, but the rate of fire was slow, and the imperial army shot a rain of bullets in an instant, and it was obvious that in the end, the Tanguts suffered a big loss.

Li Zhizhong's war horse and the guards around him were shot one after another, and Shi En's war horse was also hit by an arrow, and the main generals of the two armies fell to the ground almost at the same time.

When the soldiers on both sides were fighting each other, Li Zhizhong and Shi En ran quickly after landing on the ground, and soon the two ran together.

Shi En swung his knife and slashed, scolding in his mouth: "You Western Xia man-eating beasts, Lao Tzu will slaughter you all today!" ”

"What about cannibalism? As long as you live, that's the right thing to do! When Li Zhizhong resisted with a horizontal knife, he did not speak out angrily.

"Fuck you!" Shi En scolded angrily: "When my imperial army attacks your Western Xia, I will definitely lead my troops to kill all of you beasts!" ”

"Do you still want to attack Western Xia? Foolish dreams! Li Zhizhong waved his knife and fought back, and said: "Wait until I kill you first, lest you dream!" ”

Li Zhizhong can become the general of Western Xia, his own ability is not bad, and his martial arts are also superb, but his opponent Shi En is also a family student, so the two of them are half a catty and eight taels, and they really can't tell the winner for a while.

The soldiers on both sides believed in their commanders very much, so they fought each other, but they did not bother the two of them in the battle.

Because the strength is evenly matched, normally this battle of the main generals will continue for a long time, but an accident happened.

The weapons on both sides are long knives, and the smelting technology of Western Xia is also very famous, and Li Zhizhong's hand is also a treasure knife, but what makes him die is that the knife in his hand was actually cut off!
