Chapter 23: The Iron Rider and the Golden Drum (2)
[Second update, ask for red tickets, collect]
Wang Sunchen clenched his teeth, the muscles on his cheeks stiffened, and the sound of his molars shattering could almost be heard in his ears. The soldiers watched from the sidelines and were shocked to see blood pouring from the corners of his mouth.
Wang Sunchen knew that this was revenge for discounting his right arm when he released the captive, but the fracture can be healed, and if the limbs are cut off, how can a person still have a life? only hated him for his kindness, and he didn't make a ruthless move. Knowing that the thieves who released Lu Dao would come up with such an idea, he directly ordered them to chop up the sacrificial flag!
The defenders at the head of the city looked at the Tibetan people triumphantly slaughtering the captured robes, and they all felt the same way, and none of them could bear it, and they all looked at Wang Sunchen.
"Waiting! Joe Dutou is ready. A pro-soldier came over and reminded.
Wang Sunsin raised his hand and ordered the cavalry who were ready at the gate of the city to go out of the city to rescue. But he didn't know why, he always felt that in the enemy's array, there were some subtle movements that were imperceptible, so that his hand was raised in mid-air, and the word "out of the city" was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't wave it or say it.
Wang Sunsin stared at the enemy's strength and looked fiercely, during which another prisoner of war had his limbs cut off, and the screams spread throughout the battlefield.
Many people anxiously waited for Wang Sunsin's order, but he finally took back his raised right hand. He can't take risks, obvious traps he can't step into. However, Wang Sunchen now understands very well that if he continues to let the Tibetan people perform on the battlefield, the morale of the soldiers under his command will be too great, and his own prestige will also plummet.
He clenched his fists tightly and shouted, "Where is the Divine Arm Bow?!" ”
The distance of sixty steps is the place where the divine arm bow shows its might. A year ago, the Divine Arm Bow began to be distributed in Kansai, and began to change the outfits of various armies. After a year, this magic weapon has gradually become popular. Wang Sunsin had in his hands a whole crossbowman equipped with a divine arm bow.
Soon, a team of crossbowmen came up, and they all carried a heavy crossbow more than four feet long - in the Great Song Dynasty, which was unique in military technology, it was also regarded as a military weapon, and the divine arm bow named by the Son of Heaven himself - the iron pedal at the front end of the crossbow body was the biggest feature of the divine arm bow that was different from the previous crossbow bows.
And during this time, one by one, the prisoners of war were cut off their limbs, and neither they pleaded nor cursed, but their fate did not change. The Phantoms, who had become more and more skilled in their means, were even able to tie their wounds with ropes when they cut off their limbs. Looking at the prisoners of war who had their limbs cut off, they used their most strength like a piece of meat. Worms wriggled on the ground, and the onlookers all clapped their hands and laughed.
"Give them a treat!" Pointing to the center of the battlefield sixty paces away, Wang Sunsin's voice was indescribably tired. He couldn't step into the trap of the enemy, but he couldn't watch the captured robes being humiliated. If you want to die, you have to get a whole corpse happily, and it is cut into pieces piecely, and you can't be reincarnated as a ghost. And there are those who are proud, even if he can't save his brothers, Wang Sunchen wants them to accompany him on the road.
The people who led the Divine Arm Bow Team all had their hair furrowed, moved their lips, and stopped talking. One of Wang Sunchen's personal soldiers whispered to remind him, "Guarding is not to save ......."
"Save! Can you get it back?! Wang Sunchen turned around like a whirlwind, pointed to the robe that was still being tortured, his eyes were red, and the spirit like a ghost and god pressed everyone to persuade him again, and he shouted again: "Quick! ”
If it weren't for the fact that Wang Sunsin had already demonstrated his unrivaled divine marksmanship in front of the soldiers before, and had confirmed the majesty of being the commander-in-chief with his clear strength, his current order would definitely be persuaded to be withdrawn by a group of people.
But at the moment, no one dared to discount Wang Sunsin's orders. A group of god-armed archers lined up at the head of the city, measured the crossbow strings with the strength of their waists and legs, listened to the order, buckled their teeth together, and shot the short arrows placed in the groove out of the slot.
Unlike the longbow that always has the sound of a bowstring that lingers after a shot, the Divine Arm Bow is extremely powerful, and after the tooth hair is opened, it is a short, dull chirp. Dozens or hundreds of voices were connected together, like the roar of a giant beast. Sixty paces away, whether it was a Fan or a Han, were all nailed to the ground.
No matter how good or bad, all of them were killed, and Wang Sunsin's decision made the battlefield where the golden drum horn did not stop for a moment turn into a dead silence in an instant. But in the next moment, the triumphant horn of the Western Xia side sounded again, as if victorious, and played happily. However, perhaps due to the power of the Divine Arm Bow, the Tibetan people did not come to attack the city again with the sound of the horn.
On the battlefield where the corpses were everywhere, there was suddenly a rare blank, except for the Tubo people who fell to the ground and fortunately did not die when they came to attack the city a few times ago, there were no other living creatures. However, after the Tibetan people made the action of killing prisoners of war, every body that could still move would be pierced by several long arrows from different angles, and the wounded Tubo who had a chance to escape back were killed in a blink of an eye.
Despite the fact that the number of arrows was already in serious danger, Wang Sunsin allowed his soldiers to waste a little bit on this matter, and their anger must be vented, otherwise it would affect their morale and make the morale of the army unstable.
And Wang Sunchen himself also has a ball of anger in his heart to come out: "Let Qiao Si go to rest first, I can use him at night!" ”
………………………………
Ye Lizheng sat in the main tent of the blind medicine of the brother of the patriarch of the Qingtang tribe.
is different from the colleague sent by Yu Zang Huama who ate a soft nail in Mu Zheng, as an important figure in the party's wealthy Ye Li family, and Ye Li Zheng, who has a regimental training envoy position in the court, has won the greatest respect here in the blind medicine. Not only did he sit in the most honorable position in the tent, but he could also see the singing and dancing of the Han women, which was bought by a merchant who asked for blind medicine at a great price.
Ye Lizheng was very comfortable with this, but he was ordered by the king to come here. Compared to his status and identity, even in the small Qingtang Clan, he was not even a blind medicine as a patriarch, and he was not even qualified to stand in front of him. It is because of his generosity that he can sit down and talk because he wants to complete his task as soon as possible and return to Shanbei.
Ye Li Zheng didn't want to come out to run errands, he wanted to lead the army to fight the battle, not to come out to be a lobbyist. But he unfortunately fell under Yu Zang Huama, and served as an officer in Zhuo Luo and the Southern Military Division. Yu Zang Huama, a Tibetan man, married a sect daughter, was named a concubine, and sat on the 100,000 household registration of Yu Zang's family, even if he went to Xingqing Mansion, the queen mother and the minister of state had to greet him with courtesy, not that he could afford to offend him.
The helpless Yeli Zheng could only cheer up, deal with the blind medicine, and seal the official to make a wish. According to the bottom limit set by Yu Zang Huama when he came out, no matter what, it is necessary to ensure that the army of blind medicine cannot be allowed to appear in Weiyuan City - even if the blind medicine is effective, he cannot be allowed to send troops - for Yu Zang Huama's worries, Ye Lizheng can understand, blind medicine stabbed Dong Yu to death from behind, and Yu Zang Huama no longer warns of him, that is too stupid.
Luckily, he's interested. While enjoying the singing and dancing, Ye Lizheng glanced at the blind medicine out of the corner of his eye. He came to see the blind medicine this time, and without saying a few words, the younger brother of the patriarch of the Qingtang tribe accepted the official petition without hesitation and became a ruler of the Great Xia Kingdom. Although he said that he wanted to help send troops, he refused to mention it.
At this point, Ye Li Zheng has completed his task, and he can sit down and watch the song and dance with peace of mind. He had heard of an official named Wang Shao who was sent by the Eastern Dynasty in Qinzhou to recruit Tibetans. recruited the brother of the patriarch of the Qingtang tribe as his greatest merit. Now Ye Li Zheng really wants Wang Shao to see what kind of virtue this Tubo man he has recruited, this groveling flattery is rarely seen compared to Wang Shao.
Blind medicine didn't think there was anything wrong with his behavior, as a Tubo person sandwiched between the two powerhouses of Song and Xia, it was normal to eat both sides. He doesn't mind bending over his parents. And in his heart, he was actually faintly dissatisfied with Wang Shao's attempt to maintain the balance between him and his brother.
And if the blind medicine wants a bigger territory and more people, these Han people will not give it to him. Seven remnants, Wang Shao would rather add that waste to Zhang Xiang'er than let the Qingtang tribe get a piece of the pie.
A cronie hurriedly walked in and said something to the blind medicine in the Tibetan dialect. Blind Yao's face changed suddenly, and he looked at Yeli Zheng nervously, and saw that Yeli Zhengli had been drinking, so he also replied in Tubo dialect.
Ye Lizheng pricked up his ears and sneered secretly. Blind medicine should not have imagined that he can speak Tibetan.
It turned out that the famous Han Gang is here! ’
…………
He was respectfully welcomed into the village. Han Gang saw it at first glance, and the clothes on his body were completely different from those of Tubo and the group of people in the Great Song Dynasty.
"It's a Tangut person!" One of Han Gang's guards let out a low snort.
Zhiyuan's footsteps stopped, looked over in surprise, looked at the group of people, and then looked back at Han Gang.
"It's indeed a Tangut person." Han Gang grimaced and nodded in confirmation.
Judging from the gaze cast by the group, they were also surprised. This is also because Han Gang has a very high reputation in the Qingtang Department, and no one will stop him, and as soon as he sees him, he will invite him to the main account, so he will bump into him.
Zhiyuan's face changed in an instant, but after years of practice, he recited two sentences of the Prajna Heart Sutra, and his mood gradually calmed down. Turning his head to look at Han Gang, he found that he was smiling and calm.
Seeing Han Gang's expression, Zhiyuan secretly relieved himself, but he didn't know that the more angry Han Gang was, the brighter he smiled. But Han Gang's current expression is a confident expression.
