The raging fire was accompanied by thick black smoke that emitted a scorching stench.

Rao is a soldier of Dashun City for many years, and he has experienced a lot of battlefields large and small, but when he approached at this time, he still couldn't help but retch.

There were still terrible screams from the Xixia soldiers in the flames, but more of them were mutilated limbs, and a few feet away from the flames, in the dried bloodstains, told the pain of its owner from the depths of his soul. The closer you go, the stronger the smell of the burnt meat. But no one whetted their appetite.

Even Liu Fu and the others couldn't help muttering to themselves at this time: "It's miserable, it's really miserable." ”

It was hard for them to imagine what the outcome would be like if they and others encountered an enemy like Shen Yun. At this time, they were also afraid. They also passed through this sawdust field when they came, if Shen Yun sprinkled some flour at that time, and then came with such a few rockets, then they ......

I don't dare to think about it, and I don't want to think about it.

Anyway, as long as they win now, it's enough.

Shen Yun's order was to first extinguish the growing fire, and then besiege and kill the Western Xia soldiers who had not yet died. Originally, they also thought that there were some resurrected Tangut people, so that they could take advantage of this to invite merit and reward to make up for the fact of their previous defeat in the village.

But now, even if the people in the fire are not burned to death, they are not human at all. Even if their hatred with the Tangut people is endless, they are not willing to take a bunch of charcoal sticks as a merit.

After retching, Liu Fu and Chong Yong looked at each other and began to dig a trench in the flames. Although this is not an easy thing to do, it can't stand the number of people. In just one hour, the fire was confined to a circle.

The fire burned for three hours, and even the city of Dashun was filled with a scorching stench. When the fire was extinguished, there was no longer a living Western Xia soldier in this area.

Just when Liu Fu and Chong Yong were in a daze, Shen Yun also brought someone over.

It wasn't until Jiang Ji entered the city that he found that the back of the others had been burned by the air waves, and when he returned to Shen Yun, he couldn't support it and fainted. Shen Yun could only order a few of them to be sent to the military doctor in a hurry to recuperate.

The rest of the soldiers from Anhua County naturally heard Shen Yun's order, leaving hundreds of people to guard the city gate, and the others all followed. Then, the ugliness of these forbidden troops under Liu Fu before became a lesson for them.

"Shen Duguan, all the Xixia soldiers here have been burned to death, I don't know what to do next?" Although Liu Fu had a plan in his heart, he had to obey Shen Yun at this moment. Who let Shen Yun be the real Dashun City guard.

"Gather the people of the city, dig three feet into the ground, and transport it with the scorched earth to the wasteland ten miles to the north to bury it. When buried, a deep pit was also dug, a layer of lime was buried, and after all the burials were buried, all the lime was sprinkled around it, and then a stone tablet was erected to inform the two countries that this was the place where the Western Xia soldiers died, and that they should not dig without authorization to cause the plague. ”

Shen Yun's instructions were not omitted at all, which made Liu Fu and the others admire in surprise and panic.

After giving these orders, Shen Yun hurried back to the city. At this time, in the public hall in the city, Li Xin, who had passed out before, finally opened his eyes.

Feeling the pain all over his body, Rao is experienced in a hundred battles, and he couldn't help but let out a moan. The doctors and soldiers waiting outside the public hall immediately rushed in, and when they saw Li Xin's appearance, they hurriedly urged the doctors to diagnose and treat the medicine again. After some panic, Li Xin finally felt that he could hold back the pain all over his body.

Looking at the worried soldiers in front of him, Li Xinden shed tears of remorse: "It's all me, I deserve to die." If it weren't for my greed for merit and forcibly guarding the village, I would not have let so many brothers die. Now that the village has not been taken, even Dashun City will be surrounded, and I Li Xin will not be able to escape the blame. ”

At this time, he also suddenly remembered the letter that Shen Yun wrote to him that day, if he could listen to Shen Yun's words that day, even if the village was besieged, the loss would only be more than 2,000 people. Even if he dies, he can make a name for sacrificing his life for the country. Now, it's all over.

"Don't be like this, you don't have to. Our revenge, then Shen Duguan avenged us. ”

A personal guard said to Li Xin with a bit of pain, looking at Li Xin's incredulous gaze, and hurriedly explained: "Not long after we entered the city, those Western Xia people chased after us. Shen Duguan just sent his soldiers to shoot a few rockets, but he didn't know the truth, and with a bang, all those Western Xia people were buried in the fire. ”

"What did you say?" Li Xin forgot the pain all over his body and grabbed the guards.

But what he got was a response from more people around him.

Convinced that this was not the time for his subordinates to comfort him, Li Xin finally burst into tears. After crying bitterly, Li Xin suddenly asked everyone to go out: "You are all waiting outside the door, I want to rest for a while." ”

Driving everyone out of the door was not that Li Xin was physically exhausted. But in his heart, at this time, he began to think about how to share the work with Shen Yun, so as to cover up his fault for losing the deceitful village. For a while, countless methods flashed in Li Xin's mind, and because of these methods, Li Xin suddenly had the courage to live again.

Shen Yun, who returned to the public house, heard the news that Li Xin had woken up, Shen Yun groaned for a long time, but decided to visit Li Xin. After all, the two of them are now considered robes, and Li Xin is also the main general of the attack on the deceitful village, if they don't go to visit, they can't be reasonable.

Hurriedly came to Li Xin's resting place, and Shen Yun saw the figure of a cadre of guards and doctors. Seeing this, Shen Yun opened his mouth and asked, "I heard that Li Chan has woken up, why are you waiting outside?" ”

"Back to Shen Duguan, Li Cha Zhi just woke up, and after I waited for the medicine, Cha Zhi said that his spirit was a little poor and he wanted to sleep peacefully. That's why we're waiting here. It was Li Xin's personal guard who replied, and Shen Yun did not doubt him, nodded and said, "Since Li Qian is asleep, then Shen will come to visit later." ”

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Li Xin's voice came from the room: "It turns out that Shen Duguan is back, please come in quickly." Although Li was not in good spirits, he was in pain all over his body, but he couldn't sleep. I heard that Shen Duguan led people to defeat the Western Xia people, and it happened that Li wanted to hear about the battle. ”

In his words, he regarded himself as Shen Yun's superior. According to his thoughts, Shen Yun's defeat of the Western Xia people must be a little strange. The biggest possibility is that there is a huge amount of gunpowder buried in that sawdust road. Just like an iron cannon, it instantly caused an explosion and then annihilated the Tanguts.

Therefore, Shen Yun is a little clever at most, and he doesn't understand the unspoken rules in the ranks.

This kind of civil official is the easiest to fool, coupled with the fact that this move killed a full 5,000 Xixia people, and a little intimidation in the name of murder and immorality, presumably Shen Yun will give up this great credit to himself.

This is the most effective method that Li Xin has determined to be the most effective way to strive for merit.

Shen Yun frowned, but still walked into the room. Seeing that Li Xin was wrapped in plain cloth, he asked, "Does Li Zhan feel better?" The Western Xia soldiers and horses have retreated, and the ruler can concentrate on recuperating from his injuries. After the injury is healed, he will ask Li Zhizhou to send troops and horses to fight a decisive battle with Western Xia. When the time comes, the revenge of the deceitful village will be returned. ”

Li Xin wanted to know the situation of the battle to annihilate the Western Xia people from Shen Yun's mouth, but Shen Yun didn't say anything. On the contrary, he brought up Li Xin's sore spot and took out the matter of the deceitful village as a shield.

Li Xin suddenly realized that the young magistrate in front of him didn't seem to be so easy to fool: "I don't know how Shen Duguan will write this battle report?" ”

"Naturally, the Western Xia soldiers and horses are coming, and the county wants to block its road with fire. Unexpectedly, a thunderbolt suddenly fell from the sky, stirring up the earth's fire, causing all these Western Xia people to be burned to death here. Although the county doesn't know the situation, it is expected that God will bless me in the Great Song Dynasty. Dashun City is the territory of the Heavenly Family, and no one is allowed to offend, so it rains down thunder to show punishment. ”

What Shen Yun said was not leaky, and all the words that Li Xin was originally going to persuade Shen Yun were blocked back into his throat.

"With such a big credit, isn't Shen Duguan not tempted at all?" Li Xin was anxious and wanted to pull Shen Yun into the water first. However, he was disappointed again: "Li Xuanzhi, do you know that it is better to be a man." Compete with the heavens, and there will be retribution in the dark. The county is afraid that one day, the thunder will slash on the head of the county. ”

After Shen Yun finished speaking, he nodded at Li Xin, who still wanted to say something: "Li Xuan, you can take care of your injuries." Today, the county will tell the Western Xia soldiers and horses to attack the matter of Qingzhou and Shaanxi Road Shuaisi, thinking that there will be soldiers and horses to defend Dashun City in the near future, and you and I can also get out of the situation. Hey, this city is really not a place where civil officials such as us can stay for a long time. ”

Shen Yun's frightened look made Li Xin angry. But he had no way to stop Shen Yun from leaving.

Walking out of the courtyard where Li Xin was resting, Shen Yun smiled contemptuously, and then ordered someone to take him to the place where Jiang Ji and the other ten people were resting. is not as good as Li Xin's treatment, Jiang Ji and the others left only two soldiers to take care of them after the doctor applied the wound medicine.

Seeing Shen Yun coming in, several people were about to struggle to get up and salute, but they were stopped by Shen Yun: "Don't be like this, you are the hero of this battle." Let me tell you, all the 5,000 Xixia people who came to attack were burned to death, and our Dashun City will be safe in a short time. However, I'm afraid that the Tangut people won't give up, so you have to recuperate as soon as possible. ”

Shen Yun's concern made these soldiers grateful, but then the words that came out of Shen Yun's mouth made them instantly happy: "Since Li Xin, the ruler of Huanqing Road, broke through the siege of the Western Xia people and led the remnants of the army to Dashun City, more than 5,000 Western Xia soldiers and horses came immediately. ”

"He wanted to cushion the road with charcoal and other materials, but Jiang Ji, the captain of Anhua County, and ten other people shot rockets to block his road, and suddenly thunder fell from the sky, killing thousands of Xixia soldiers. There was also a thunder fire that triggered charcoal and burned all the Western Xia soldiers to death. The fire lasted for three hours, and after the fire was extinguished, tens of thousands of people were investigated, and there was no one who lived. ”
