Chapter 386: Divine Thunder is born

Early the next morning, Han Shizhong climbed to the top of the city, encouraged the soldiers, and prepared for another day of war. But after waiting for a long time, there were no Western Xia soldiers and horses attacking the city, and there was no movement in other directions.

One of the soldiers suddenly shouted: "General, there is wolf smoke in the southeast direction. ”

Han Shizhong turned his head to look, and there were indeed a few wolf smoke in the sky, and the numbers were changing, one for a while, three for a while, back and forth.

"It should be that the Weizhou reinforcements are about to arrive, otherwise the Western Xia people will not come to attack the city."

The wolf smoke was agreed between the seed master Dao and Liu Zhongwu, and it was impossible for the Xixia people to light the wolf smoke to trick the army out of the city, because the change in the number of wolf smoke was only known to the seed master Dao and Liu Zhongwu.

It's simple, but it's also very practical.

The Seed Master Dao did not need to send people to break through the siege of the Tangut people to deliver the news, and it was impossible for the Tangut people to crack the change of wolf smoke and deceive the defenders out of the city.

To crack this method, you can only constantly change the wolf smoke every day, so that it is difficult for the defenders to distinguish the real from the fake. But no one knows if the other party has an agreement, and after no one sends troops, they will always let out wolf smoke to disturb the enemy.

Sure enough, a cavalry army soon ran from the city and shouted under the city: "The commander of the capital invites General Han to discuss the matter." ”

Han Shizhong instructed the deputy general to inspect carefully, and then went down to the city and rode to the palace.

When I arrived at the mansion, I saw Liu Qi, Liu Xi, and Yang Keshi all rushing over, and Liu Zhongwu's remaining two sons were also standing behind him.

Liu Qi and Liu Xi are two of Liu Zhongwu's nine sons, so they can be on their own. Don't worry about being said to be nepotistic, the generals of the Western Army have always been like this. Nor would they put their mediocre sons in high positions, because that would kill not only their soldiers, but also their sons.

The battlefield is fair to everyone, and you don't become gentle just because you're a general.

There may be favoritism and irregularities in the rear, but the front line is absolutely elite, and those who have made achievements in the DPRK and China will never come to the front line in person.

Liu Zhongwu saw that everyone had arrived, and said: "The reinforcements of the old breed will arrive tomorrow, how many people are there under your command." ”

Yang Keshi was the oldest, and he took the lead in saying: "There are two thousand people under the command of the last general. ”

"Eighteen hundred."

"Two thousand one hundred."

"Fifteen hundred."

Han Shizhong had the least soldiers and horses, and he had the most soldiers and horses at the beginning, but the main direction of attack in Western Xia was there.

Liu Zhongwu nodded and said, "I still have two thousand people here, adding up to less than ten thousand people." Stick to the aid or should the inside and outside join forces to fight the Tanguts? Tell me what you think. ”

Liu Xi was not yet twenty years old at this time, and when he heard this, he rushed to say: "Of course, we should cooperate with the outside, we still have 10,000 people, and we can fight with the Western Xia people." ”

Yang Keshi nodded and said, "The casualties of the Western Xia people should be more than half, and it is a good time for us to make contributions." ”

Han Shizhong and Liu Qi also echoed their words.

Liu Zhongwu nodded and said: "Okay, then we will go out of the city to kill the Xixia people tomorrow, and go back to let the soldiers take turns to rest, and now the Xixia people should not come to attack the city." ”

The four of them received the order to go back, and immediately prepared to put up their war horses and armor.

The Song Dynasty had few horses, but the Western Army was not very short, and after laying the Huangshui Valley a few years ago, the Western Army could exchange a lot of war horses from the hands of the Tubo people every year.

Although a lot of war horses were also lost in the battle array, there was no shortage of horse troops in the Western Army in recent years. In particular, the breeder army that has a good relationship with the Fan people is enough to have thousands of horse troops.

That night, the Great Liang army went down to the village twenty miles outside the Zhenrong army, and there were more than 100 leaders with the army, who came to see the gods to fight.

Chao Yong asked people to send a war letter to Chage, and the two sides agreed to meet ten miles south of the Zhenrong army.

Chao Yong wants to play the name of his god, and Brother Cha wants to let the Liangshan thief Kou know the power of Western Xia, and both sides feel that they have the chance to win, and it is best to win or lose in a battle.

"Woo woo woo ......"

The dull sound of the horn kept sounding, and 50,000 Western Xia soldiers and horses lined up in a phalanx.

Brother Cha felt that 50,000 soldiers and horses were enough to deal with Liangshan Caokou, and the remaining 20,000 soldiers and horses were watching the western army of the Zhenrong army behind, lest they come out to make trouble.

The soldiers and horses of the Great Liang were all dispatched, and the prince's four-clawed golden dragon flag was at the forefront.

On a small mountain peak in the distance, the Seed Master Dao took more than a hundred leaders to watch the birth of the gods.

Seed Master Dao was convinced of this, and after Lu Zhishen showed him the power of fire and thunder in Weizhou, he knew that it was very simple to save the two cities. Even without the arrival of the prince's reinforcements, with fire and thunder and Lu Zhishen's 50,000 troops, he could repel the Western Xia soldiers and horses.

But in that case, the fire and thunder are just a firearm, and the fan people will be afraid, but they will not be in awe. Unless the fire and thunder are mythical, but the mythical person can only be the prince, otherwise there will be chaos, so he can only watch the front-line soldiers bleed and wait for Chao Yong to arrive.

Everything is for today, and after today, the situation in the Northwest will be completely reversed.

The jade lion on the night saw countless war horses on the opposite side, and the horses' hooves were constantly digging the soil, eager to try.

Chao Yong, who was dressed in golden armor, did not choose to command in the center like Brother Cha on the other side, but was ready to take the lead in the charge.

However, the place where he usually hung the eight-sided purple gold hammer was a point steel gun on one side, and a bag of divine thunder on the other side. Today's important task is to make the god thunder come out and show the people the wrath of the gods.

When Brother Cha saw that Prince Daliang appeared in front of the battle, he also hit his horse and shouted, "Why did Prince Daliang come?" ”

Chao Yong didn't want to waste his tongue, but when he heard Brother Cha shouting, he had no choice but to say: "Naturally, I came for my Han land." ”

Brother Cha frowned and said, "Where does Prince Daliang think is the land of the Han people?" ”

Chao Yong said shamelessly: "The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." ”

Brother Cha saw that a grass coward dared to be so arrogant, and he couldn't help laughing: "I'll talk about it after the fight." ”

After saying that, he turned his horse and went back to the formation.

"Don't move, see me wave before you attack."

Chao Yong watched Brother Cha walk unhurriedly into the formation, and couldn't help but move in his heart, and with an order, he rushed forward with a horse.

Brother Cha heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and when he turned his head and saw Prince Liang in golden armor chasing after him, he was also stunned.

The arrogant Central Plains grass coward actually wants to ride alone to rush into battle.

"Don't let him shoot his arrows, let him rush over and capture him alive."

While commanding the generals in front of the battle, Cha Ge turned the horse's head and looked at Chao Yong with a smile.

There are dozens of Western Xia soldiers in front, and he is also quite confident in his martial arts, Brother Cha doesn't believe that so many people can't catch a grass coward.

Chao Yong was also overjoyed to see that Brother Cha did not escape, and when he picked up the fire fold with his left hand and shook it, a flame came out, and with his right hand he picked up a fist-sized divine thunder, lit the fuse, and looked at Brother Cha and threw it.

The divine thunder is actually an iron ball filled with black powder, similar to the grenades of later generations, but it needs to ignite the fuse to explode.

The Gun Bureau did a lot to use when the front-line soldiers were defending the city.

It's hard to use the battle formation, the enemy won't let you throw it obediently, and even if you use a pikeman for protection, the enemy can shoot with a bow and arrow. Moreover, the throw distance is not as long as that of the archer, and the fire thunder that needs to be lit is really not as good as the bow and arrow.

However, Chao Yong is not among them, Chao Yong has tried, and his throwing fire thunder is definitely beyond the range of ordinary bows and arrows, of course, the divine arm bow can't be surpassed.

Brother Cha was also stunned when he saw Chao Yong throwing something, and when he got closer, he saw that it was an iron ball, out of caution, he didn't pick it up, and flashed sideways.

Chao Yong threw out a divine thunder, immediately grabbed another one, lit it and threw it at Brother Cha.

"Boom"

As soon as Cha Ge dodged one, he saw another one flying, and was about to dodge, but he heard a loud bang behind him, and a strong force lifted him off his horse, causing severe pain in his back.

Brother Cha's position was full of five, and after five loud bangs, there was no one standing in a radius of three feet, only screams.

At close range, the blasted pieces of iron are enough to pierce any piece of hard armor.

After throwing five to Cha Ge, Chao Yong turned his horse and ran sideways a hundred steps in front of the Western Xia army, and the divine thunder in the bag quickly decreased.

"Boom"

"Boom"

"Boom"

Wherever Chao Yong passed, loud noises and screams immediately rang out.

A single thunderbolt can't kill many people, but a broken piece of iron can stab many people and horses.

Many of the people outside the explosion circle were not seriously injured, and they could continue to fight with a few arrow wounds, but the unknown injuries caused them to fall off their horses one by one.

Some of the divine thunders exploded when they were thrown in front of the Tangut people, and the whole person was instantly blown to pieces, and flesh and blood were splashed all over the sky.

"Tenjin"

"Tenjin"

The soldiers and horses of Daliang shouted at the right time, so that the dazed Xixia people suddenly lost their fighting spirit, and they fled one after another, and those who could not control the war horses also abandoned their horses and fled.

Before the divine thunder in Chao Yong's bag was thrown, the Western Xia people collapsed.

"Kill"

Chao Yong shouted violently, turned his horse's head to catch up, and stubbornly threw the remaining divine thunder.

The loud noise behind the buttocks, like the roar of the gods, made the Xixia people desperately flee, and the comrades in front of them ran slowly to block the way, and slashed over.

As soon as Chao Yong gave the order, the soldiers and horses of Daliang rushed towards the fleeing Western Xia soldiers and horses like a flood that broke the embankment.

The people on the hill were already kneeling on the ground, praying in awe for the gods' forgiveness.

The seed master shouted for a while before letting the fan people get up.

A fan who had been friends with the breeder for decades trembled and said: "Xianggong, we didn't send troops to help Daliang, the gods must be angry, how can we calm the anger of the gods." ”

The seed master Dao had already discussed with Chao Yong, and said, "You go back and gather the soldiers and horses to Weizhou, and prepare to wait for the dispatch of the gods." ”

Fan people saw that there was a chance to make up for their mistakes, although they didn't know what the gods needed them mortals to do, but they still said happily: "Let's go back, Xianggong pointed out what we should use to worship the gods?" ”

The seed master shook his head and said, "No need for anything, the gods don't need your money." ”

When the fan heard this, he said: "How can this be, the gods of the tribe need to be worshipped, and the gods of the mortal world must also be worshipped, otherwise the gods will not bless us." ”

Another person also said: "If the gods are angry, it will be too late, please save us." ”

"yes"

The seed master Dao saw that the people had to give it, thought about it, and said helplessly: "Then you can send a hundred sheep from each tribe to reward the three armies." ”
