Chapter 630: Life Is Better Than Death's Written Communication (Second Update)
Chapter 630
It took several years to succeed, with a total of more than 5,000 characters, with a square shape, redundant strokes, and a structure that imitates Chinese characters, and has its characteristics. It was prevalent for about two centuries in the vast geographical zone of present-day Ningxia, Gansu, northern Shaanxi, and southern Inner Mongolia under the rule of the Western Xia Dynasty.
The Yuan and Ming dynasties were still circulating in some areas for about three centuries. Li Fanwen, an expert on Tangut script, believes that all Tangut characters total more than 5,900 characters, while in fact there are more than 5,800 meaningful characters.
Its basic strokes also have the same dots, horizontal, vertical, apostrophe, squeeze, left turn, and right mention as Chinese characters, but there is no common vertical hook in Chinese characters, and oblique strokes such as apostrophes are used more. Due to the large number of strokes, the complex structure, and the fact that many numbers are more than ten strokes, it is difficult to recognize and write, and even the simplest numbers in Chinese characters are quite complicated in the Tangut language.
The ancient calligraphy is written with a brush, if you write the traditional Chinese characters of the Great Song Dynasty, it is already very troublesome, but if it is used to write the Xixia characters, hehe......
Fei Tingdarong is a rough person, and his mastery of the Tangut script is at most that kind of rough writing and ink, and he really has a sense that life is worse than death when he writes this kind of Tangut script with complicated strokes.
But he finally wrote what he wanted to say and handed it to Na Sachen, because he was the main general, and even if he was precious, if there was no nod from the main general, if he, the deputy general, mobilized troops and horses without authorization, it would be a big taboo.
Because of this, and Sachen's goods are deafening again, and the other party can't read lips, so he can only communicate in the most hated way of being coarse and semi-literate.
After glancing at what the old general Fei had written with great difficulty, Sa Chen nodded heavily. "Okay, no problem, let General Renduo and General Mi Bao lead 5,000 troops to attack, entangle the Song army outside the city, and listen to the old general, you immediately lead 5,000 cavalry to attack head-on, and you must try to destroy the weapons of the Song people." Please. ”
"Did you hear it, why are you still stunned, why don't you go to give the order quickly, the old man will go out of the city, and ask the general to guard it...... Damn, don't talk about it, hurry up. "I can't hear it, so why should I waste saliva with this deaf master.
Soon, the elite Xixia people gathered 15,000 men and horses, and soon, the three gates were wide open and went straight in three directions.
Liang Yiqi, who had long been wearing his armor and standing behind the walled wall, saw the city gate opened under the firelight, and the Western Xia soldiers and horses pouring out of the city gate were lined up outside the city gate.
He turned to look at the brothers beside him, and shouted loudly.
"Prepare for battle, brothers, don't forget, you are the elite brought up by my old man, and it is because of those Xixia dog barbarians that we have to be separated from our families and leave our homeland."
"Now cheer me up, kill a few more Xixia dog thieves, and make more military exploits, when the time comes, maybe we can exchange those Western Xia prisoners of war for your wives and children who are far away in Western Xia......"
"Remember, we are the sons of the Han family, as long as we can make contributions to the Great Song Dynasty, then we can become the real people of the Great Song Dynasty!"
With the incessant encouragement of Liang Yiqi and other generals, the hearts of those soldiers wearing iron armor and leather armor couldn't help but surge.
And at this time, Zhi Keshi had also noticed the strangeness of the east gate and the south gate. "Brother, take the 3,000 Yuan Youjia to the north gate to have a look, and you, lead the 3,000 Yuan Youjia to the south gate to guard, waiting for the opportunity to attack."
"As for the rest of the brothers, the three thousand iron harriers are divided into two teams, one thousand yuan and five hundred cavalry on one side, and the soldiers are divided into two roads, and the general himself will lead a team to the south side of the camp, and you will approach the north side of the camp."
"Remember, if no enemy comes to the camp, then don't attack, if any Western Xia cavalry dares to go around, give me a damn ......"
With Zhi Keshi's order, the cavalry around him began to scatter in all directions, and the two thousand heavily armed iron harriers left behind slowly attacked the south side of the East Gate camp with Zhi Keshi and carefully copied the past.
To tell the truth, Zhe Keshi's heart was quite excited, this was really the first field battle of the Iron Harriers of the Great Song Dynasty, or it should be said that this was the first heavy cavalry unit of the Great Song Dynasty formed by himself after the Great Song Dynasty captured the 3,000 Iron Harriers of the Western Xia.
Fortunately, the Western Xia people were so extravagant, and at that time, the Great Song Dynasty obtained tens of thousands of good horses, which was enough to equip the 9,000 excellent war horses of these 3,000 iron harriers.
If it was daytime, I am afraid that those Tangut people would definitely close their doors after seeing this iron harrier, after all, the iron harrier can almost be said to have no opponent in terms of short-distance impact.
Whether it is the Great Song Dynasty or the Northern Liao, they have suffered a lot of losses on the body of these three thousand iron harriers. And now, this thing has become an important military combat force of the Northwest Frontier Army of the Great Song Dynasty.
It's a pity that it has never been tested in actual combat, and before, the reason why Liang Yiqi's army was brought was to provoke the fighting spirit of those Western Xia barbarians and let them come out in a wave.
It's just that those Western Xia barbarians are so cowardly that they actually saw the traitors who defected to the enemy, and they didn't even let out a fart, just like that, I was watching you in the city, and you were looking at me affectionately under the city.
This rhythm is neither bloody nor violent, which is not good, but Lord Xiao Wang is very prescient, and he believes that the Western Xia people will not be able to stand it and send troops.
Now it looks like he'd expected it, huh...... The main thing is that Lord Xiao Wang has made up this bed crossbow version of the long-range firearm, which is really disgusting.
If he was squatting in the city, I believe that now, he would definitely be unable to help but come out and face a wave, otherwise let him continue to harass him like this, and let people not live.
Muma, just throw the fire, it also has its own sound and light effects, making the chickens and dogs restless, so three or five days of hard work, people have to be mentally weak.
"It is worthy of Wang Wushan, in Bianliang, Tokyo, there is a lot of trouble, and now this Western Xia, I am afraid that it is its reputation, and it can stop children crying at night." When Zhi Keshi thought of Wang Yang's past achievements, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
At this time, it was already less than a mile away from the suitable impact position, Zhi Keshi took a deep breath, shook his head, and his expression became serious, with the wave of his big hand, two thousand heavily armed iron horses were slowly entering the impact position.
At this moment, Fei Ting Darong had already finished the battle under the city, and with the mace in his hand swinging, a thousand brave Western Xia elite horsemen waved the weapons in their hands, roared, and rushed towards the Song army camp outside the east gate.
