Outside Xingqing Mansion, on the second day of the encampment of Renli's army, on this day, Renli did not attack Xingqing Mansion, but sent people to cut down trees and make siege equipment.

Han Shizhong, Liu Qi, and Yao Pingzhong naturally would not let go of this opportunity, and after a whole day of attack, all three of them successfully obtained the baron, but Liu Qi was still fighting for the viscount, Han Shizhong and Yao Pingzhong had nothing to do, so they also accompanied Liu Qi to continue to harass the Western Xia soldiers and horses.

That night, 20,000 soldiers and horses in Lingzhou and 10,000 soldiers and horses in Dingzhou rushed to King Qin.

The number of soldiers and horses under Renli's command increased to 50,000, and only Lingzhou left 10,000 soldiers and horses to resist possible attacks from the south, but Dingzhou, Huaizhou, and Jingzhou all fell out of the city.

On the same day, the seed master Dao led Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Dong Ping, Yang Zhi, and Mu Hong 50,000 soldiers and horses into the territory of Western Xia. After the reward moved, cut the village, and came to Lingzhou by means of Mingsha.

Early in the morning of the third day, the south gate of Xingqing Mansion was opened at the urging of Han Shizhong, Liu Qi, and Yao Pingzhong, and the three of them went out of the city to start their attack and harassment plan.

"Dead"

Han Shizhong let out a loud shout and shot off his horse a Western Xia soldier who was about to flee into the camp in front.

It was too late to shoot the others with bows, and a few Western Xia soldiers who were rushing into the camp in embarrassment heard the sound of the horse's hooves chasing behind them stop, and only then did they dare to rein in their horses and turn back.

Although Liu Qi's archery skills are better, his strong bow power is not as strong as Han Shizhong's, and the range is naturally not as far as Han Shizhong's, so the last arrow was shot by Han Shizhong.

The patrol of 100 men was scattered by three people, but the three pursued the direction with the largest number of people and went straight to the outside of the camp.

Han Shizhong glanced at the Western Xia soldiers behind the camp wall, but the one he had just shot was within the range of the archers behind the camp wall, and shook his head and said, "I can't get this waist card again." ”

Yao Pingzhong said with a smile: "Otherwise, we will block here and see how the Xixia people send people out of the camp to patrol." ”

When Liu Qi heard this, he smiled and said: "It's okay, the people of Xixia will definitely not be willing to be blocked by us." Once they were out of the camp, we shot a few arrows and left. Lead them outside and shoot them slowly. ”

Han Shizhong also felt that waiting for the Xixia people to send them to the door was better than chasing them everywhere, so he nodded and said, "Okay." ”

The Xixia people in the camp originally thought that the three of them would retreat after chasing and killing outside the camp gate as they did yesterday, but they didn't expect to wait for a while, but found that the three had no intention of retreating.

Han Shizhong relied on the strength of his bow and shot an arrow at the guards in the camp from time to time. Although they were separated by dozens of steps, if the guards were not careful, they would also be shot by Han Shizhong.

After being shot and killed by Han Shizhong one after another, the guards in the camp no longer dared to be distracted and were engrossed on guard.

Han Shizhong was also afraid of being shot by the guards, so he did not dare to enter the range of the defenders. The two sides are separated by dozens of steps. Once the guards are fully guarded, they will be able to dodge Han Shizhong's arrows.

Han Shizhong shot a few more arrows, although they were all dodged by the people in the camp, but they didn't stop, walking back and forth in front of the camp, so that the heads of the guards in the camp moved with Han Shizhong.

Yao Pingzhong saw that there was an opportunity, and he also shot a few arrows in succession, killing two people.

Only Liu Qi is fighting for the viscount, in order to open more bows. No strong bow was used.

The general guarding the gate saw the two men shooting their men outside the camp, and hurriedly shouted for the patrolling soldiers to leave the camp to drive the three away.

The general in charge of the patrol saw that the soldiers sent out were driven back, so he sent another hundred people out of the camp.

Han Shizhong and Yao Pingzhong saw that someone had just come out of the camp and had just entered their range. Then he opened his bow and shot hard. After shooting two arrows, he turned his horse and left.

Liu Qi waited until the first few riders began to draw their bows, and then shot several arrows in a row, shooting the front people off their horses. Then he dodged the arrows sideways, and followed Han Shizhong and Yao Pingzhong to turn their horses away.

Then the three of them began to fly kites, and began to shoot with patrolmen. After staying away from the Western Xia camp. Han Shizhong and Yao Pingzhong then turned their horses and rushed to the patrol, while Liu Qi followed behind and shot Fan people with arrows.

Han Shizhong and Yao Pingzhong both have the courage of ten thousand people, and thousands of troops and horses dare to break through, not to mention the hundred-person team. All the arrows shot were pushed away by the two of them, and once they rushed to the front, they were like tigers entering the flock.

Soon, the patrol was killed and returned to the camp.

Once he escaped, he sold his huge back to the other party, Liu Qi's bowstring turned into an afterimage, and sharp arrows continued to fly out, and the fleeing Xixia people also continued to fall off their horses, and less than half of them could escape back to the camp.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Renli had just convened the generals of several states to discuss the attack on Xingqing Mansion, and he heard that someone outside the tent asked to see him, so he had to stop discussing.

The general in charge of the patrol came in and reported: "The three Han people who attacked and killed the patrol soldiers two days ago are here again, and now they are blocking the camp gate and shooting the gatekeepers." ”

When the Jingzhou guard heard this, he couldn't help frowning and said: "You sent troops to drive them away, what are you doing in the big tent of the Chinese army?" ”

"The last general sent men to drive them away several times, but the patrol soldiers were a little far away from the battalion, and they would be attacked. Now the last general's headquarters has been disabled and can no longer go out of the camp to patrol. ”

The Lingzhou guards and Jingzhou guards were a little festive, and said with a smile: "It seems that the Jingzhou soldiers and horses have been too comfortable over the years, and they have forgotten to ride and shoot, and they were actually blocked by three Han people. ”

The Jingzhou guard general was also not polite, and sneered: "The soldiers and horses under my command are incompetent, and I ask the general to send people to kill them, and let my soldiers and horses know what my soldiers and horses should look like in Great Xia." ”

The Lingzhou guard didn't know that the Jingzhou guard was digging a pit for him, so he turned his head to a general behind him and said: "You go and transfer a group of people to take over the Jingzhou soldiers and horses patrol, kill three more people, and send their heads to the big tent of the Chinese army." Let the Jingzhou soldiers and horses see the bravery of our Great Xia warriors. ”

"Yes"

General Lingzhou didn't care, got up and walked out.

The Jingzhou guard saw that Lingzhou took over the patrol errand and was also relieved.

Han Shizhong is a master of martial arts, his archery skills are also exquisite, and he plays rogue tactics, he runs when there are many people, kills when there are few people, and cannot ambush on the plains, so he is simply an insoluble opponent.

The people who were killed two days ago were helpless, but Renli handed over the patrol to Jingzhou on the grounds that Shunzhou and Huaizhou suffered heavy casualties, and he couldn't shirk it. Now that the soldiers and horses of Lingzhou have taken over this drudgery, he is desperate.

Renli didn't say anything to remind, now he has 12,000 people in Huaizhou and Shunzhou, but there are 20,000 people in the hands of the Lingzhou guards, and he is also happy to weaken the Lingzhou soldiers and horses.

The Jingzhou guard threw out a hot potato, and his speech became active, saying: "The soldiers and horses of the Liang State in the city are entrenched, I am afraid that there is still a large army behind us, and we must attack the city as soon as possible." ”

Renli said: "The soldiers and horses of Lingzhou and Dingzhou rushed more than a hundred miles yesterday, so let them rest for a day before attacking the city." ”

When the Lingzhou guard general heard this, he immediately said: "I have walked more than 100 miles in two days, why do I need to rest, our army can fight today." ”

Dingzhou is closer than Lingzhou, and when he heard this, he also said: "Our army can also fight." ”

When Renli heard this, he smiled and said, "Since soldiers and horses can fight everywhere, then we will attack the city today." In the past two days, a lot of siege equipment has been made in the camp, which is enough to use. ”

The Lingzhou guard got up and said, "Since there are siege equipment, what else is there to discuss." Everyone went to order troops, and they went to attack the city. ”

Renli saw that the Lingzhou guards made their own opinions, and couldn't help but be a little angry, but there was no difference on his face, and he got up and said: "Okay, 2,000 people in Shunzhou will stay in the camp, and all the other soldiers and horses will go to attack the city." ”

When everyone came out of the big tent, they were just about to divide up and order their troops, when they saw a cavalry coming from the direction of the camp gate.

The Lingzhou guard who arrived suddenly reined in his horse, flew off his horse, knelt on the ground and said, "The general went out of the camp to pursue those three people and was shot." ”

When the Lingzhou guard heard this, he couldn't help but blush, turned his head to the deputy general beside him and said, "You take a thousand people to be the vanguard, and you must shoot three people." ”

"Yes"

The adjutant general received the order and ordered a thousand people to leave the camp.

After that, the soldiers and horses of all states were gathered, and they came to Xingqing Mansion in a mighty way.

The Lingzhou guards traveled all the way, and from time to time they saw a soldier of their own family dying on the road. It wasn't until two miles outside Xingqing Mansion that I saw the deputy general chasing the three with soldiers and horses. Look at it, he was about to surround the three of them, but he was rushed out by the three of them.

Han Shizhong and the three of them saw that the army behind them was already approaching, so they threw off the rounded up soldiers and horses and ran towards the city.

The deputy general of Lingzhou saw that there were not many people in the city, and the suspension bridge could not be raised for a while, so he thought it was an opportunity, and immediately chased after him with soldiers and horses.

The soldiers guarding the city gate saw that there were still people coming to die, and immediately a burst of bows, arrows, fire and thunder waited.

After an explosion, the body of the deputy general of Lingzhou was gone, and the remaining soldiers and horses also collapsed back.

The Lingzhou guards could also hear the explosion in the distance, and they couldn't help but be afraid when they saw the soldiers and men and horses being torn apart.

The army lined up inside and outside, and the Lingzhou guard said: "The firearms of the Liang State are so powerful, even if the moat is filled, the siege equipment may not be reliable." ”

Renli said with a smile: "Although the firearms of the Liang Kingdom are powerful, the number must not be many, as long as their firearms are exhausted, we will be able to recapture Xingqing Mansion." The crossbow arrows they use are also specially made, and they cannot be replenished in the city, and after their arrows are exhausted, it will be difficult for ordinary bows and arrows to block the city gates. ”

The Lingzhou guard said: "If this is the case, we might as well storm the city gate and consume their firearms, so as not to damage the siege equipment." ”

The Jingzhou guard nodded: "What the general said is very true, then our department will fill the moat, and the soldiers and horses of Lingzhou will grab the city gate." ”

When the Lingzhou guard heard this, he couldn't help frowning.

The moat is protected by trench trucks, and the security is much higher, but the siege of the city gate requires human lives to fill.

Renli didn't wait for the Lingzhou guard to speak, so he said: "Then there are two generals Lao, and when the lord of the country is rescued, I will ask for credit for the two generals." ”

Although the Lingzhou guard general was unwilling, he did not dare to blatantly oppose it, lest some people say in the future that he saved his troops and had bad intentions.

The Jingzhou guard said with schadenfreude: "War horses are easily frightened, it's better for you to use infantry to grab the city." ”

The Lingzhou guard said angrily: "Everyone can see it, you should be careful to fill the moat, don't be blown up by people and cars." (To be continued......)
