Chapter 272: So That's the Way
"Isn't Li Yuanhao's relationship with us good?" Wei Yan clenched her fists and said with some doubts. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "How could he suddenly make a move on us? ”
"I don't think it's that simple." Shi Zong walked around twice, and then said. "If Li Yuanhao sends troops to us, from Yanzhou Daolongyou, there will be a large part of our control area. They passed so blatantly, don't these places know? If they are here to attack us, anyway, the people from these places should be able to come over in advance and send us a message! ”
The more Shi Zong spoke, the more he felt justified. He came to the chair and sat down. "Think about it again, what kind of person is our prince, can he watch us ignore it, and can watch Li Yuanhao send troops to attack us? Li Yuanhao sent troops here, I think it is very likely that the prince did something to force him to do this! ”
"Brother Zong's meaning......" After listening to Shi Zong's words, Shi Lance also came to the spirit. This Western Xia army is here to help us break the siege? ”
"It's hard to say!" Shi Zong pondered for a moment and looked at the soldier who had come to report. "How many people are there in the Western Xia army?"
"It's dusty, I don't know how many soldiers and horses there are, but they're all cavalry, and they're menacing." The soldier replied.
"Menacing?" Shi Zong frowned. "What do you mean?"
"They don't seem to have any intention of stopping, and are rushing towards the east gate." The soldier replied.
"What?" Shi Zong frowned slightly, although the inference just now was very reasonable, but helping to break the siege, just rushing over directly, still surprised him. He was now beginning to wonder if his justified inference was really right.
"Brother Lance, I'll go to the east gate now, if it's to break the siege, I'll cooperate with him and defeat the enemy army at the north gate, if it's to attack the city, I'll guard the city gate, and then send someone to inform you." Shi Zong got up and said.
"Let Wei Yan go with you, he can also help you in times of crisis!" The stone lance spoke.
"Good!"
After finishing speaking, Shi Zong took Wei Yan and followed the soldier to the east gate, while Shi Lance was taken to the Shuaifu and was responsible for the central command.
………………………………………………………………………
At the east gate, Shi Zong stared into the distance, and in the distance, Xia Jun shouted to kill the heavens, menacing, and he really couldn't see any signs of rescue.
"Captain, is this Xia Jun really here to rescue?" Dusty, unable to see how many Xia Jun there were, Wei Yan's face was gloomy at the moment, and he had a feeling that a catastrophe was coming, and he couldn't help but ask Shi Zongdao.
"The prince will never sit back and watch the Xia army come to attack us!" Shi Zong reluctantly strengthened his thoughts, he knew that at this time, no matter whether Xia Jun came to rescue him or not, he had to show that Xia Jun was here to rescue. Because, if he doesn't believe it, no one will believe it anymore.
What's even more terrifying is that the Xia army, unlike the nomadic peoples such as the Yellow Uighurs, is a completely regular army. The nomadic peoples such as the Yellow Head Uighurs, all of whom were soldiers, although they were strong in combat, but their discipline was very poor, and if all the soldiers of the Longyou Protectorate concentrated their efforts, they would have a chance to win. But the Xia army is different, this is not only a strong fighting force, but also extremely disciplined army.
Of course, if the Longyou Protectorate has a secret weapon like a small cannonball, he is not afraid, but unfortunately, the Longyou Protectorate does not have it. Now if you want to win and defend Longyou, you can only fight it out with a knife and a gun.
Although the soldiers of the Longyou Protectorate have experienced some wars, in most cases they are chasing the fleeing Song army, and they have not really been on the battlefield. Only a few thousand people brought to Chang'an had combat experience, but these people, and the besieged enemy army, must have been too few.
"Look, Lord Wang, the yellow-headed Uighurs seem to have sent someone over to negotiate!" Wei Yan pointed into the distance and spoke.
Shi Zong looked in the direction of Wei Yan's finger, and several war horses were leaving the Yellow Head Uighur camp besieging the east gate and rushing towards the menacing Xia army.
The Xia army did not pause at all, and the leader directly killed the messenger who greeted him with a knife in his hand. Then move on.
In this way, Shi Zong breathed a sigh of relief, but the yellow-headed Uighurs panicked all of a sudden.
The Yellow-headed Uighurs sent the most troops this time, and there were Yellow-headed Uighur soldiers and horses at all four gates, and the general guarding the eastern gate was Suyang Po Nada, the leader of the Subi tribe.
For the bravery of the Xia army, Su Yangpo had heard of it. He sent an envoy to ask about the purpose of Xia Jun's visit this time, and then talk about it, even if he divided Longyou equally, he would not hesitate to do so.
But the news that came back was that all the messengers had been killed, and the Xia army rushed straight without stopping. Su Yangpo was terrified, and on the one hand, he asked the soldiers of the yellow-headed Uighurs to meet the Xia army, and on the other hand, he sent people to inform the leader of the Qiangtang tribe, Qiang Hu'er, the leader of the Duomi tribe, Mimu, and the commander of the yellow-headed Uighurs, Baye Gu Siqi.
As for himself, he gathered all the soldiers of the Subi tribe and quietly moved towards the garrison of Mimu, the leader of the Duo Supplement who had the best relationship with him in the direction of the south gate.
The soldiers of the yellow-headed Uighurs are not stupid, they are under the command of Su Yangpo on the surface, but that is only limited to daily life, this kind of life and death moment, without Baye Gu Siqi in charge, they don't want to sell their lives.
In addition, Su Yangpo's fight did not appear to resist the enemy, which greatly damaged their morale.
The Xia army was getting closer and closer, and they were thinking about whether to fight, when the news of Su Yangpo's escape came, and the yellow-headed Uighur soldiers were immediately furious, and then they began to flee for their lives.
This result greatly surprised Shi Zong and Wei Yan on the city wall, and also surprised Li Qianyuan and others who pretended to attack the Longyou Protectorate.
The development of events was beyond everyone's expectations, but at this time, it was not enough to think about it.
Li Qianyuan rushed to the city with his soldiers and horses, and did not open his bow and arrows, and the stone sect on the city wall was also extremely restrained, and did not order arrows to block.
"Listen, the people on the city wall, I am Li Qianyuan, the commander of Yanzhou in Great Xia, and now I am informing you of the Protectorate of Longyou on behalf of the King of Xiping in Great Xia." Li Qianyuan said, stretched his bow and arrows, and shot Zhao Shuo's letter on the city wall. "Give you three days, if you don't hand over the Longyou Protectorate, we will attack the city on a large scale, and on the day the city is broken, there will be no chickens and dogs."
After finishing speaking, Li Qianyuan didn't give everyone time to react, and turned away with the people.
Come quickly, go faster.
In a flash, Li Qianyuan's soldiers and horses disappeared from everyone's sight.
Under the puzzled eyes of everyone, Shi Zong opened the letter, then the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, nodded, and muttered to himself. "So that's what happened!" (To be continued.) )
