"Woo woo"

The majestic sound of the horn resounded throughout the battlefield, and the battle spirit rushed into the sky.

A team of soldiers and horses went to the place where the moat and the Tanglai Canal were connected, and a team of soldiers and horses went straight to the city gate.

Chao Yong had also arrived at the south gate city wall, looked at the dense surging steps under the city, and said: "It seems that the Western Xia people are really going to attack the city this time." ”

Zhang Qing also said worriedly: "Do you want to put away the suspension bridge?" ”

Chao Yong looked at the fire and thunder that the soldiers behind him kept transporting, and said with a smile: "No need, just blow up the suspension bridge when the situation is tense." ”

Two thousand catties of gunpowder were used to bomb the city, and there were still two thousand catties of gunpowder left.

Soon the foot was within range of the Divine Arm Crossbow, and the archers in the city began to shoot non-stop, and the dense crowd was immediately cleared.

The commanding general shouted, "Go both sides." ”

The Western Xia soldiers immediately flashed to both sides, no one charged from the middle, and the archers inside the city gate were immediately useless.

Zhang Qing saw that the Western Xia soldiers were about to rush to the moat, and immediately shouted: "Bomb." ”

At the sound of an order, dozens of fire thunders drew a parabola and fell into the Xixia team.

In the explosion, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the screams continued, and the offensive of the Tangut people was blocked.

In just one round of attacks, hundreds of people were killed and wounded.

When the Western Xia people, who had been moving forward bravely, saw such a tragic situation, they immediately retreated in fright.

The commander originally wanted his soldiers to rush to the moat and then use the archers to suppress the people at the head of the city, but he didn't expect the power of the fire and thunder to be so great.

The Lingzhou guard also frowned when he looked at it from behind, but his intention was to consume the opponent's fire and thunder, and if he retreated after only a few hundred casualties, he also felt shameless.

"Kill those who retreat."

The soldiers who fled back in embarrassment saw that the Lord would be so tough. I had to stop.

The commanding general thought for a while and said, "There are not many Han people in the city, as long as you rush to the moat, you can suppress them with bows and arrows." Everyone dispersed, the Han people must not have many firearms, I don't believe they are willing to blow up a person. ”

After thinking about it, the group felt reasonable, so they lined up in a loose formation and pressed towards the moat.

Seeing this, Chao Yong shook his head and said, "I didn't expect the Xixia people to see the flaws in the firearms so quickly, use bows and arrows." ”

Zhang Qingdao said: "There are not many arrows in the Divine Arm Crossbow. ”

Chao Yong said: "Then use a bow and arrow." ”

After laying down the Xingqing Mansion. The soldiers and horses of the Great Liang captured many weapons in Western Xia, but the ordinary swords, guns and arrows were innumerable.

Although the head of the city had some advantages, and the range was longer than that of the upward fire, the Tangut people were bold when they saw that the Han people no longer used firearms. Although people were shot down from time to time, the people behind continued to advance, and soon there were people who reached the moat, squatting on the ground and shooting the people at the head of the city.

Although Sun Li, Han Shizhong, Liu Qi, Yao Pingzhong and others were constantly shooting and killing people under the city, they were not able to defeat the many people of Western Xia, and more and more arrows were shot from under the city, and people were hit by arrows one after another on the city.

Chao Yong watched the city gradually be suppressed. Shi Yong said to the side: "Transfer three hundred personal soldiers to defend the city." ”

When Zhang Qing heard this, he hurriedly said: "I still have five hundred people under my command to rest, let them go to the city." ”

Chao Yong shook his head and said, "They still have to defend the city at night, and my own soldiers have rested for many days." It's time for them to help. ”

The archers on the head of the Lingzhou guard were suppressed, and they immediately sent a team of soldiers and horses to seize the city.

The archers behind the gate were blocked by towers, but they were not fired by bows and arrows, and kept the queue intact.

Although this group of soldiers brought leather shields. But under the shot of the Divine Arm Crossbow, the leather shield was useless. Just showing up. He was shot.

The people who rushed up couldn't help but hesitate, and they slowed down when they ran to both sides of the suspension bridge.

Zhang Qing saw that there were many people crowded on both sides of the bridge, and immediately ordered a fire and thunder attack.

The people who threw the fire and thunder were selected to have strong arms, and they didn't have to stand on the outer wall, and a team of players was transferred in front of them to cover them, and they threw them forward with all their might.

All the fire and thunder were thrown across the moat, and some of them were more than a few feet beyond the moat, but the shattered pieces of iron were enough to kill and injure people within a few kilometers.

After an explosion, there was no one standing at the bridge, and the archers near the river were killed.

Chao Yong did not let people close the city gates, and once there were more archers under the city, they attacked with fire and thunder.

After the 300 soldiers entered the city, they all concentrated on both sides of the city gate, and soon suppressed the archers under the city.

The Lingzhou guard general couldn't help but feel a little painful when he saw that the two thousand men and horses sent before and after were completely damaged.

The Jingzhou guard said on the side: "The use of firearms by the Han people has decreased a lot, and only those who use the divine arm crossbow are those under the city gate. Send some more people, and you will definitely be able to exhaust the Han people's firearms and crossbow arrows. ”

Renli nodded and said: "If you recapture Xingqing Mansion, the first credit should be to push the soldiers and horses of Lingzhou." ”

The Lingzhou guard also felt that there did not seem to be many Han firearms, and it was still very likely to recapture Xingqing Mansion, so he gritted his teeth and sent another 2,000 people.

Zhang Qing commanded 100 people to guard the city gate, 100 people to guard the gap blown up, and the remaining 300 people were at the head of the city, plus Chao Yong's 300 personal soldiers. Six hundred people are distributed on both sides of the city gate, dozens of feet of the city, and the guards can be described as tight. On the contrary, once the Tangut people under the city are dense, they will be attacked by firearms, and they can only squat under the city in a sparse formation and shoot back at the city.

The soldiers and horses of the Great Liang completely suppressed the Tangut people.

The bowstring in Liu Qi's hand turned into an afterimage, constantly shooting sharp arrows, nailing the Xixia people to the city.

Chao Yong also shot more than a hundred arrows, he did not use iron arrows, but captured Western Xia's white feather arrows, the divine arm crossbow can only use special arrows because of the mechanism restrictions, Chao Yong's overlord bow has removed all the mechanisms, and any arrow can be used. Within a hundred steps, both iron and leather armor will be easily shot through.

More than 100 arrows were shot, Chao Yong's arm was also sore, and he turned his head to see that there were more than ten empty quivers under Liu Qi's feet, and he couldn't help but say: "How many people have you shot?" ”

Liu Qi said: "More than 90 people have been shot down, all of them are the key points of shooting, but it is difficult to count how many people have been shot." ”

Chao Yong said with a smile: "With your archery skills, there will definitely be no problem with nine out of ten arrows, two days ago you shot more than 180 people, and now you have 90 people." As long as you shoot three hundred arrows out, you will be a viscount. ”

Han Shizhong and the others next to him heard the prince say this, and they didn't have any opinions in their hearts. Although the Western Xia people under the city will dodge, Liu Qi's shooting of nine out of ten is also a conservative estimate.

The 2,000 men sent by Lingzhou were quickly destroyed again, leaving behind the corpses and retreating in a hurry.
