Chapter 258: A Precious Woman
Kill!
Li Xianzhong roared angrily, the sword in his hand waved, a sword qi flashed, and a Western Xia soldier in front of him had fallen in a pool of blood.
"It's a matter of national fortune, everyone is vying to be the first! Use me in this battle, use me to win! ”
Under the leadership of Li Xianzhong, the rest of the soldiers all rushed to the front.
There are thousands of Tangut people in front, and those Tangut people have bright weapons in their hands, but Li Xianzhong and the others have no fear, they want to use their flesh and blood to block these Tangut people! They wanted more of their companions to rush to the city walls and defeat the Tanguts together.
They rushed to the front and kept killing the enemy!
A soldier struggled forward, and with a wave of the scimitar in the hand of a Western Xia soldier in front of him, the soldier's body flashed back, but he still didn't dodge! Blood burst out, the soldier's face was covered in blood, and his eyes were blinded! Bursts of pain came!
However, even in this situation, he did not back down, he roared and charged forward, the sword in his hand constantly swinging.
"Come on! Come on! Come at me! The soldier roared in anger, and he went forward desperately, and several spears were already pierced into his body, and his whole body became bloody, and he still did not retreat.
"Kill!" He shouted angrily, and another Tangut man fell in a pool of blood in front of him.
Seeing that he was so brave, the Xixia people next to him exclaimed in surprise and scattered in all directions.
"You bastards! Have the ability to keep coming! He yelled and continued to move forward, but his body lost too much blood after all, and gradually he couldn't walk, and his body began to shake violently.
The Tangut people next to him seemed to see the bargain and rushed up again.
A moment later, more than a dozen scimitars slashed at the body of this Song soldier, and the Song soldier finally fell there.
It's just that this Song soldier fell, but more Song soldiers still moved forward one after another. Each of them did not care about their personal life and death, but only wanted to repel these thousands of Tangut people and let their comrades come to the city wall.
Half an hour passed, and the previous five hundred soldiers were almost dead and wounded, but at this moment, more Song soldiers had come to the city wall. Now the number of Song soldiers has exceeded 1,000.
When these thousand people arrived, their combat effectiveness was even stronger than just now.
The sky was already dark, and in the northwest of the city wall, more and more Tanguts were killed, and more and more Tanguts did not have the courage to continue to stay here.
The Song soldiers kept dying, and they kept dying. However, Song Bing's will to fight regardless of life and death deeply shocked them, and they did not dare to continue fighting.
Countless Tangut people were trembling in their bodies, and people were constantly retreating from the city walls.
The northwest city wall was about to be conquered, and Li Xianzhong's face couldn't help but show a smile.
******
But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of singing from under the city wall.
This song was made by the party's language, and Li Xianzhong didn't know what this song meant.
However, this song is full of sadness and poignant, as if it is the voice of the country when it is about to perish and the nation is facing extinction. After hearing this voice, the expressions of the Tangut people, who had already shown a timid expression, changed greatly, and they rushed up one by one, regardless of life and death, and fought the Song army again.
After a while, hundreds of women came to the city wall, and these women also carried swords in their hands.
Many women even came towards the Song army.
The leading woman is seventeen or eighteen years old, with a beautiful face, who is not Ren Yuqin?
She didn't have any martial arts, but she stubbornly rushed forward with her weapon.
"Concubine Niangniang! It turned out to be a concubine! The Tangut people next to him shouted one after another.
Countless Tangut people rushed to her side and stopped her, and countless others took the sword in her hand and rushed forward.
It turned out that the previous singing voice was actually made by her.
Those hundreds of women turned out to be palace maids in the Western Xia Palace, and at this moment, she actually brought these palace maids to the battlefield.
That song is the traditional song of the Dangxiang people, and the Dangxiang people were also divided into countless tribes, and it was a song passed down when the tribe was about to be destroyed, and it has been passed down from generation to generation until now. The song describes the miserable treatment of the men, women and children of the tribe after the demise of the tribe, and there are women who complain about the men, believing that the men in the tribe are not men!
Under the excitement of the song, those Tangut people actually mustered up their courage again.
There were many more of them than the Song army, and by the time the sun rose, the Song army on the city wall was getting smaller and fewer, and only Li Xianzhong was still fighting bloodily.
"General! Our soldiers are dead and wounded! Let's go! Staying here is a dead end. A pro-soldier next to him was also covered with wounds at the moment, he gritted his teeth and said.
"But we've paid such a big price, we haven't taken it yet! I'm unwilling! Even if I die today, I will die here! I'm going to kill more Tanguts! Li Xianzhong said sadly.
He was another sword, and another Tangut fell in a pool of blood.
However, at this time, the pro-soldier who had spoken to him before had already rushed towards the front frantically, and the pro-soldier seemed to be crazy at the moment, and the knife in his hand danced into a ball, forcing the Tangut people in front of him to retreat, and then he continued to move forward.
"Liu Yu, are you crazy?" Li Xianzhong said loudly.
"General, you quickly retreat! I'll block them for you! You are different from us ordinary soldiers, you are the commander of the Northern Shaanxi Forbidden Army! We can all die here, you can't die here! If you die, what will happen to the 100,000 brothers? The soldier had been stabbed, but he was still crazy.
"General! Your Majesty already has high hopes for you, not for you to die here, but for you to lead the army to destroy Western Xia! Seeing that Li Xianzhong hadn't pushed down yet, the pro-soldier roared again.
"This ...... This ......" Li Xianzhong is angry and painful at the moment!
There were still Xixia people rushing in front, Li Xianzhong had already hacked one person to death, and at this time, another personal soldier next to him also rushed forward desperately.
"General! Hurry back! You can't die here! "It's humane again.
"Good! I know! I'm going to retreat! Don't worry, I will definitely destroy Western Xia! Li Xianzhong said with tears in his eyes.
He finally retreated from the walls! And none of his own soldiers survived!
******
Daylight has come, and the siege has not stopped.
The Song army repeatedly rushed to the city wall, but was repeatedly driven down.
From the morning, Western Xia women came to the city wall one after another.
By noon, the number of women was increasing.
By dusk, the number of women was not far from that of men.
These women also participated in the defense of the city, their strength was limited, but their courage was even better than that of the Western Xia men.
Many times, some places were about to be conquered, and those Tangut men had retreated one after another, and thousands of Tangut women rushed over to replace them. They used their bodies to resist the Song army, and I don't know how many women fell in a pool of blood.
As the sun set, Zhao Chen stood on a high platform, his face also with a shocked expression.
In the last moments of the imminent collapse of the country and the collapse of the family, any nation can show its valuable side. Just like Taiyuan City that day, almost all the people in the city died in battle. Just like in the last years of the Jin Kingdom in history, when the Jurchens had already declined, the Jurchens had extremely low combat power, and they were far from being the opponents of the Mongols, but at the last moment all the Jurchens tried their best to resist, and the emperor would rather commit suicide than surrender to the Mongols. At this moment, Zhao Chen also saw the valuable side of the party.
At this moment, Zhao Chen is very appreciative of these Western Xia women!
However, even so, Zhao Chen still wants to conquer Xingqing Mansion! For the sake of the destiny and future of our nation, we must step on the body of a foreigner! The destruction of Western Xia is inevitable, and it is impossible to stop!
"Keep the siege! Women's strength is limited, we can fight day and night, can they do the same? Sooner or later, their strength will run out! Zhao Chen said.
Qu Duan and Yu Yunwen next to him nodded one after another.
On the night of the sixth day of the fourth month, the siege did not stop.
However, until the morning of the seventh day of the fourth month, the women persevered.
The Song army still attacked the city until the tenth day of the first month of April, and another four days and three nights passed, and at this moment Xingqing Mansion still did not fight.
Zhao Chen frowned, and in the afternoon, Mingjin's voice finally sounded! The Song army receded like a tide!
Zhao Chen summoned the commanders of all armies to his military camp to discuss the siege of the city again.
