Chapter 546

In comparison, under the wall, which stretched to three hundred steps, were scattered with the corpses of Western Xia soldiers, all of whom died under the sharpest long-range weapon of the Great Song Dynasty, the Yuan You crossbow.

Although the battle was not long, and at most it lasted less than two quarters of an hour, but more than fifteen rounds of crossbow bolts had been fired, that is, more than the 150,000 crossbow bolts stored here, and in just two quarters of an hour, a full fifth of them had been consumed.

"My lord, if you continue to use it like this, it will be too expensive, otherwise, let's defend according to the conventional tactics, otherwise, I'm afraid that by tomorrow, the Yuanyou crossbow in our hands will become a useless ornament." The battalion general, who had calculated the consumption, leaned into Wang Yang's ear and whispered.

"It's okay, they rushed here, just such a crazy attack, what does this mean, it means that they are in a hurry, because their back road should have been completely blocked." Wang Yang took the water bladder handed by his companion next to him, poured a big mouthful, threw it back, and walked towards the camp.

"Anyway, the next two defenses, continue to do this, and then talk about the rest of the matter."

Seeing that Wang Yang insisted on insisting, this battalion general didn't have much to say, anyway, there were indeed quite a lot of crossbow bolts in reserve now, and there was indeed no need to save too much for the time being.

Wait, wait, wait, since dawn, I saw that the fallen trees outside the land of Li Xu that were placed on the road to block the road had been emptied, and in that direction, at least nearly three thousand Xixia soldiers had gathered, but they had no intention of attacking.

And he was actually burying the pot to cook, it was really a dog, and the Wang Eunuch Army, who had been hungry for an early morning, was furious. "Someone, give the order, hurry up and cook, why are you stunned, I didn't see that the other party was eating, do we still need to stand here stupidly and watch each other eat and drink spicy food?"

"No!" The battalion is rolling his eyes with a dirty face, you are the main general, who knows what you want to do if you don't speak?

#####

"Did you really see that?" Ling Zong, who was squatting in a fight against the landlord, heard the words of the sentry who rushed over to report the news, and couldn't help jumping up, and hurriedly threw down the bamboo card in his hand.

"Yes, at least dozens of well-armored Western Xia soldiers have just arrived about three miles away from us, and then retreated." The whistle whistled.

"I must have come here to explore the way, it seems that we are really waiting for the sale." Xu Zhao finally showed a rare look of excitement on his face, threw down the bamboo card in his hand, stood up and stretched his waist.

"Damn, how many days have we been here, except for those birds and beasts, we haven't met anyone, today is finally a good sign, but I don't know if it will be a group of miscellaneous soldiers or big shots." Ling Zong yawned in boredom.

"Since we sent someone over to step on the plate first, it will definitely be a big shot, and now, maybe we can make a big contribution. I don't know if that unlucky ghost is a general of Western Xia or what kind of patriarch he is......" Several other Imperial Bandows also rubbed their hands excitedly.

"Hurry up, why are you still stunned, carefully check our traps, and by the way, check your respective weapons, you can't watch the big fish run away when the time comes."

Soon, nearly 100 people were haunting the rugged mountain road, inspecting the traps they had dug and buried.

There is no way, there are enough people, and they are idle all day long, so there is really no shortage of traps, not only to deal with possible enemies, but also to deal with those wild beasts in the mountains, which can not only fight tooth sacrifices, but also prevent the invasion of fierce beasts.

After carefully checking to make sure that everything was safe, he retreated back to the position where they had been ambushed.

The position where they were lying in ambush was on one side of the high slope, and in front of this rugged path, they had a very bad sense of raising a tall stone wall, and on the other side of the path, there was a very steep slope, and if they fell down this path more than ten feet high, if not to die, they would be crippled.

As long as an enemy arrives, when the time comes, they can safely shoot at the enemy on the trail from the ambush.

The enemy wants to climb up, but ...... It's definitely not easy, and if you want to move forward, the obstacles that are completely rocked by rocks will make them feel hopeless and not want to give up hope.

And on this path, which is less than two people walking side by side, as long as one is out of balance, it is easy to fall down and become a standard crippled soldier.

And just when Wu Qilang and the others were looking forward to the trace of the enemy with great interest, here, Wei Mingdang still politely refused Xiao Lianghou's request.

"The soldiers here can't be without a backbone, and Weichen can continue to encourage the soldiers to keep pressure on that line of defense. In this way, Niangniang, you will have the opportunity to leave ......" and sit in a secluded place, where there is no one else except for Xiao Lianghou's cronies.

"Qing family...... It's the mourning family who has lost you, and the 60,000 Great Summer Tigers......" The corners of Xiao Lianghou's eyes couldn't help but flicker with mist and crystal, and his tone seemed a little choked.

Wei Mingdang fell to the ground and said to the queen mother who looked like a girl. "Mother must not be like this...... Wei Ming is just a distant relative of the royal family, it is the mother's discernment, and the name of Wei is promoted, and today, at this time of critical survival, the minister should be loyal to the mother......"

"Your loyalty, the mourning family, will definitely not fail you, your son, your daughter, the mourning family will not treat them lightly." In the end, Xiao Lianghou slowly helped Wei Mingdang up and made a promise.

And Wei Mingdang was excited and fell to the ground again, and then began to secretly plan how to leave.

Not every Western Xia general and soldier has a heart that swears to the death, if they know that the Empress Dowager actually escaped, I believe that these guys who still seem to be killing at the moment will become the devil who can even swing a knife at the robe for their own lives in the next moment.

"Weichen will give the order to carry out another attack, and at that time, please ask General Liang to lead a small number of elites and escort Niang Niangluan away...... Be careful not to attract attention. Wei Mingdang turned his head and commanded Liang Zuo.

"The general can rest assured, the last general will definitely protect the safety of the mother." Liang Zuo nodded in understanding and replied.

After a short period of effort, Wei Mingdang took his leave and prepared to organize soldiers and horses to prepare for the next wave of attacks.

As for the queen of Xiao Liang, she took the opportunity of entering the account to change her clothes and replace her armor with the armor worn by the guards, while a personal maid put on the eye-catching bright silver armor behind Xiao Liang, put on the face protection, and slowly walked out of the military tent.
