Since the founding of the Western Xia, the worst thing to do as an emperor is Xia Chongzong Li Qianshun's father Xia Huizong Li Bingchang, because because the Empress Dowager Liang (Liang Hou) controlled the government, Li Bingchang was set up, and Li Qianshun succeeded to the throne after Li Bingchang's death, but Li Qianshun became a puppet under his mother Xiaoliang to control the government, no different from his father. et

During the period of grasping the Western Xia Dynasty, the Great Liang and Xiao Liang attacked the Song Dynasty several times, and the Song Dynasty almost lost all their blood by beating them several times, and also made the Liao State dissatisfied with the Xiao Liang Hou, and after the poisonous wine killed Xiao Liang, Li Qianshun officially became pro-government. After Li Qianshun came to power, he was faced with a rag tossed by his grandmother and mother, and Western Xia was on the verge of collapse.

At this time, the Great Song Dynasty was not the early period of the Empress Dowager Gao's regent, the Great Song Dynasty adopted a policy of establishing itself in Jingsui for the Western Xia, and Zhezong's determination to forge ahead had to admit that Huizong also inherited the enterprising spirit of his father and brother in the early days of the succession, so that the Western Xia continued to be subjected to high pressure from the Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty built castles in Hengshan and Tiandu Mountain to the doorstep of the Western Xia, and the Hengshan Heavy Land was lost, and the hinterland of the Western Xia faced the threat of the Song army.

In the past 20 years, Li Qianshun can be said to have spent most of his time in worry and anxiety, but this time the crisis encountered was greater, compared to his father's reign, the Song army's five-way expedition to Xia only hit Lingzhou City and returned in vain, but this time it was attacked under Xingqing Mansion, and Daxia faced the disaster of losing the country.

Although the Song army's grain and grass were burned, Li Qianshun breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't dare to be careless, and he had very little time to sleep every day.

Late at night, Li Qianshun was still dealing with political affairs, suddenly heard an explosion like thunder and thunder in the city, accompanied by the waiter beside him, he got up and went to the outside of the hall to watch, and saw that the sky of the city, there were countless lights floating, there were red and white, and these red and white lamps in the air turned into flames from time to time and fell from the sky, falling on the city's houses and official offices, and even the inner palace ban was not spared, so that the city was full of fire, and there were explosions.

The fires that fell from the sky were made from civilians, officials, and forbidden palaces, and in this era when civil engineering was used to build houses, as soon as they were touched by the wool oil that fell from the sky, the flames would ignite immediately.

Seeing such a scene, Li Qianshun was panicked and hurriedly ordered: "What's going on?" Send someone to inspect it quickly, and report it to me ...... quickly."

At this moment, the entire Xingqing Mansion was in chaos, from the Great Inner Palace to the official yamen, to the barracks, officials' houses and people's residences, fires were lit everywhere, but there were still countless lanterns floating from the northwest in the sky, dense and terrifying.

……

Outside the city, you can faintly hear all kinds of panicked sounds coming from the city of Xingqing Mansion, the cries of adults, the cries of children, and the shouts of soldiers running to fight fires...... In short, Xingqing Mansion has become a pot of porridge.

The firelight brightened up the entire Xingqing Mansion, and it also made the Song soldiers gathered outside the city begin to rub their hands one by one, and their eyes were full of excitement.

Although the eyes of these Song soldiers were full of fighting intent, everyone knew very well that before these lanterns fell, they must not attack Xingqing Mansion, although these lanterns were made by their own side, but as murder weapons, they did not distinguish between the enemy and me.

While the Song army was waiting outside the city, there were countless squads wandering and shuttling through the Song army's camp, keeping their eyes on the sky to prevent lanterns from the northwest from drifting through Xingqing Mansion and falling into their own camp, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties to their own side.

Although the amount of pine resin for the prayer lamp was calculated in advance, the wind speed was fast and slow, and how far the sky lantern could float was determined not only by the pine resin in the lamp, but also by the wind speed, so Song Jun could not be careless.

At the beginning of making the lanterns, Lotte clearly stipulated that the red prayer lamps were filled with fire oil and cotton wool, and the white lanterns were filled with gunpowder with a long flame, and they were also very wary of the Song army.

Although Liu Yanqing's Yan Yan Road was not under the command of Lotte, Liu Yanqing's army was stationed in the east of Xingqing Mansion, and Lotte was afraid of revealing the news, so he took the right time and reported the news to Liu Yanqingjun at the same time as releasing the cage, so that Liu Yanqing's army could be prepared, so as not to cause heavy casualties due to the lanterns falling from the sky.

"Father, Xingqing Mansion City is on fire!"

As a young man, Liu Guangshi was sleepy, but his subordinates saw the fire in Xingqing Mansion, and hurriedly woke him up, and after getting up, Liu Guangshi hurriedly came to his father's side, looked at the direction of Xingqing Mansion and said.

At this moment, beside Liu Yanqing, most of the generals of Yan Yanlu also gathered, and their eyes were all turned to Xingqing Mansion.

"Lantern ......" Looking at the lantern floating in the sky of Xingqing Mansion, Liu Yanqing narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself: "Why didn't I expect that this Le Xiao'er would repeat his old tricks......"

Liu Guangshi was puzzled: "Father means ......"

Liu Yanqing said: "There were rumors before that the soldiers and horses of the two roads of Seed Master Dao and Liu Zhongwu burned down two Xia army barracks outside Shunzhou City, using lanterns falling from the sky, and my father only regarded them as the eyes and ears of misjudgment, but I didn't expect it to be ......true."

"Xingqing Mansion is in chaos, Liu Fa, Chongshi Dao, and Liu Zhongwu's three-way soldiers are bound to attack the city, and Xingqing Mansion is about to be breached!" Liu Guangshi said, and then his eyes fell on Liu Yanqing's body: "Father, how should we deal with today's plan?" ”

Son Liu Guangshi asked like this, it really made Liu Yanqing embarrassed, before he was unwilling to let Lotte command, and now Lotte is influencing the general trend with his own strategy, this night after this night Xingqing Mansion will break the Xixia Destiny, although this Ling is not the last to destroy the Xia, but the significance can not be ignored, Xingqing Mansion broke in the eyes of the Xixia people means that the Xixia died in the country, since the future there is no longer the existence of the Great Gao Bai Kingdom, and the Great Xia is again in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty.

"What should I do?" Liu Yanqing narrowed his eyes, looked at his son Liu Guangshi, and his face flashed with a smile: "Attacking the city, do you want Li Qianshun to fall into the hands of the Seed Master Dao and a few others?" ”

"That's what my father said!" Liu Guangshi hurriedly replied.

"Pass my order, quickly gather your men, and be ready to attack the city at any time!" Liu Yanqing commanded.

……

The official road north of Xingqing Mansion was full of horses' hooves, and a light horse galloped north at night.

"I don't know what the head thinks, the general attack on Xingqing Mansion is imminent, don't let me wait to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, what do you mean by sending us to guard here?" In the night, someone whispered a complaint.

"Don't speak!" Hearing someone complaining, a general in front of him immediately reprimanded in a low voice.

The grumbling soldier turned his head, glanced at the burning Xingqing Mansion behind him, shook his head and sighed: "The empty lantern of Xingqing Mansion is about to fall, and when it falls, it is when our army captures Xingqing Mansion......"

"Stop whining!" A soldier next to him hurriedly whispered, "Don't say it's us, aren't the three young generals of the handsome family like us who didn't attack Xingqing Mansion?" ”

"He's a big talker!" At this time, the general in front of him scolded viciously, and the light reflected in Xingqing Mansion glared at the soldier fiercely, "Wang Shunzi, Zhang Qimao, when this task is completed, Lao Tzu will whip you two rabbit cubs dozens of whips, and let you two rabbit cubs be ...... of his mouth."

Wang Shunzi, who complained a lot, hurriedly closed his mouth, and Zhang Qimao's expression showed that he was very innocent.

……

The seventh day of the eleventh month of the Great Song Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty is destined to be a recordable day in this time and space.

When the soldiers, people, officials, and palace miscellaneous servants of Xingqing Mansion were busy fighting fires everywhere, in the dark night, outside the south, west, and north gates of Xingqing Mansion, there was a small group of Song soldiers dressed in black carrying black sandbags, and quietly came to the gate to stand up, until the base was more than one person high and blocked the three city gates, and then retreated slightly.

After completing the task, someone immediately came to the handsome tent to report: "Report to all the handsome masters and scholars, and I have blocked the city gate of Xingqing Mansion according to the instructions!" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, all the 20,000 Kong Ming lanterns released fell, most of them fell into Xingqing Mansion, and some of them were attached to our army camp and other places, our army was well prepared, only burned a few tents and tents, and did not cause any casualties!" At this time, another soldier came to report.

After receiving the report, Seed Master Dao, Liu Fa and others set their sights on Lotte.

Lotte nodded: "Attack!" ”

Sou! Sou! Sou......

Not long after Lotte's words fell, three fireworks of different colors pierced the night sky with a loud whistle, and then three fireworks of different colors pierced the night sky with a loud whistle a few miles away......

The fire in Xingqing Mansion is most suitable for using fireworks to convey the siege order.

The fireworks sounded in the south, west and north of Xingqing Mansion in a semi-encircled form, and when they saw the order to attack, the soldiers of Jingyuan, Xihe, and Huanqing, who had already been impatient, immediately rushed to the head of Xingqing Mansion......

The night was dark, and the Xingqing Mansion was blazing, the Xia army could not see the Song army flocking to the city, but the Song army under the city could clearly see the Xia army of the city by the firelight, and the stones, gunpowder, and arrows thrown by the catapult beckoned to the head of the city of Xingqing Mansion......

There was a fire inside, and there were fires everywhere, so that the Xia army in the city had to come to the city head to avoid the fire, and the firearms and arrows of the Song army caused more damage to the Xia army at the head of the city, and the Western Xia soldiers at the head of the city suffered a large number of casualties......

There are strong enemies outside, Xingqing Mansion is already in a state of no panic, the king can't find officials, officials can't find generals, generals can't find soldiers, and Western Xia is dying......

The Song army attacked the city wall of Xingqing Mansion along the ladder, and immediately after gaining a foothold, more Song troops attacked the city wall, and with the increase of Song soldiers, some of the panicked and discouraged Western Xia troops retreated to the city, and some threw down their weapons and surrendered.

Although the city wall was attacked, the Song army could only occupy the city wall, but could not rush to the city again, at this moment the Xingqing Mansion City was full of fire, and the Song army was afraid that it would be difficult to move an inch when entering the city.

The fire in the palace was also chaotic, and what made Li Qianshun even more annoyed was that the palace fire was due to the lack of firefighting manpower, so many soldiers were summoned, and these soldiers poured into the palace forbidden.

"Your Majesty, the Song army has attacked the head of the city......" In Li Qianshun's annoyance, a general came to report.

"Ah......" Hearing this, Li Qianshun spun around for a while, and almost fainted.

"Your Majesty!" The eunuchs who served beside him hurriedly supported him.

"Your Majesty, Xingqing Mansion is already unprotected, the minister will bring the iron harrier to open the way for Your Majesty, protect Your Majesty and the prince from the Song military camp, and ensure that Your Majesty is thoughtful in order to make a comeback!"
