Chapter 616: Hexi (7)
The cavalry units of the victorious army, which swept across the battlefield like a storm, swept away the rabble in an instant. After the army, only stumps and broken arms were left everywhere, and there were red blood stains. The corpses of the Western Xia soldiers who were knocked away by the galloping horses were scattered all over the battlefield.
It only took one charge to end the battle, which made Han Shizhong very excited. He has been in the Western Army for many years, and he knows very well in his heart that if these elite sergeants under his command are left in the Western Army, they will definitely not be used until the last moment!
However, a strong sergeant like this is only standard in the victorious army, and it is found in every legion! That's the gap.
"The general." The sergeants gathered around Han Shizhong were all waiting for his orders. Han Shizhong led the army to successfully complete the task of raiding Yongle Military City, and personally led the army to Yinzhou City overnight to control the battlefield. His performance has already won the initial recognition of the sergeants.
"It won't be the only one." Han Shizhong fought against the Tangut people all year round. I knew in my heart that those Western Xia troops were shrinking their forces and strengthening the garrison of Yinzhou City. After wiping the blood stains on the war knife casually, he said in a deep voice, "Go around Yinzhou City, and rush when you see a summer thief approaching, and you must not let a single soldier enter Yinzhou City!" ”
"Command!" Several generals immediately replied loudly.
"And." Han Shizhong waved his hand, and then said, "Send someone back to urge, it is enough to leave a garrison in Yongle Military City." Hurry up and get all the other people and equipment! The exploits of capturing Yinzhou City are ours! ”
The name of Yinzhou City is quite nice, but in fact, the city is not big at all. An unknown tributary was brought under the city to form a living water around the city and used as a moat. Outside the city, there were salt and silver mines, which were very important for Western Xia. It was extremely important for the resource-poor Western Xia.
In the course of one day, more than a dozen Western Xia armies of different sizes and assembled towards Yinzhou City were defeated one after another, and in the end, no one was able to enter Yinzhou City smoothly. Han Shizhong led the cavalry troops to successfully complete the siege of Yinzhou City.
Li Youhao stood on the wall of Yinzhou City with a pale expression and watched all this in front of him. He wasn't without his struggles. Western Xia occupied the horse-producing land in Hexi, with plenty of horses and a lot of cavalry.
There were hundreds of cavalry in Yinzhou City that he sent out to drive out those victorious troops. But they were all defeated in just one confrontation, and in the end, only more than 20 horsemen escaped. In this case, where does he, Li Youhao, still have the courage to continue to attack?
"What can I do about this?" Li Youhao was anxious, and the strength of the Chang Shengjun was completely beyond his imagination. If all the victorious armies were in this kind of combat power, then he wouldn't have to fight anymore, and Yinzhou City wouldn't be able to resist for long at all. At this time, the total number of horse infantry troops in the city was only more than 3,000 people, and some of them were reinforcements from Xingqing City before.
"My lord, the messenger has been dispatched. I believe that it will not be long before the imperial court will send a large army to reinforce it. The adjutant general on the side comforted. They did not understand how terrible the march of the victorious army was. Just think that those cavalry outside the city can't threaten Yinzhou City.
"I hope so." Li Youhao, who has no bottom in his heart, can only say this. It's really just comforting. Xingqing Mansion is not close, wait for the army to assemble and then rush over, who knows when?
Reinforcements from Xingqing Province did not come. But the siege force of the victorious army arrived first. Two days later, a large number of infantry of the Seventh Legion came to Yinzhou City with a large number of equipment and supplies.
Li Youhao looked at the dense army outside the city, as well as those siege equipment that were extremely terrifying just by looking at it, and he was dumbfounded on the spot. The victorious army was so strong, so strong that even the auxiliaries wore well-made armor. This is something that the poor and widowed people of small countries cannot envy.
It's a nice day today. Li Youhao, who was reflected in the armor of the victorious army outside the city, almost had his eyes!
The battle-hardened victorious army just lined up the formation, and did the preparation work before the battle, bringing with it endless formidable power. Just standing from a distance and watching it can be terrifying. The ordinary sergeants of the Left Wing Divine Brave Division, who had no experience in the Great War all year round, began to weaken their legs.
"Your Excellency." The deputy general came to Li Youhao's side and said with a panicked expression, "You can't do this thing." The enemy army is strong, and I ask the adults to go back to Xingqing Mansion to ask for reinforcements. ”
The lieutenant also had no choice. Li Youhao is a member of the Western Xia royal family, if he is trapped in this Yinzhou city. Then he definitely didn't end well. In desperation, he could only let him escape first. If Li Youhao can escape, then even if this deputy general dies, his family will not be affected. As for the crime of abandoning the city and fleeing, it is not a big deal for the royal family.
"Let's go?" Li Youhao smiled miserably. Stretching out his hand and pointing to the dense army below, he said with sadness, "So many elite cavalry are watching below, how can I go?!" And where can we go! ”
"Your Excellency!" The lieutenant general was anxious and shouted, "If you go now, you still have a chance to escape." If they are taken by surprise, they may not be able to catch up. If you don't leave, you're really going to be stuck here! How can an adult's status be precious, how can he fall into the hands of these thieves? ”
"Alas~~~" Li Youhao sighed and glanced at the Chang Shengjun who was nervously preparing for the siege. Stamped his foot hard. Turn and walk under the walls. When he couldn't do anything, Li Youhao chose to save himself. He is a royal family with a noble status, and he cannot accompany Yinzhou City to fall into the hands of the Changsheng army.
All the remaining cavalry in Yinzhou City were gathered, escorting Li Youhao to suddenly break through the West Gate and flee in the direction of Xiazhou.
Li Youhao was chased and killed by the cavalry troops of the Changsheng Army who followed him for a long time along the way, and the cavalry guarding him were almost dead. Li Youhao finally got rid of the pursuit by changing three war horses in a row. By the time he fled into Xiazhou, there were only a few guards left by his side.
The city was besieged, with no reserves inside and no reinforcements outside. And in such a fateful time, the Lord will flee from the city. In such a form, how could Yinzhou City still be defended?
It didn't take long after Lee Woo-ho left. When the victorious army began the siege battle, the defenders, whose morale had fallen to its lowest point, quickly gave up resistance. It didn't take much effort for the victorious army to capture this extremely important city. In this way, the gates of Western Xia were opened.
And Han Shizhong also became famous in a fight this time. At least the sergeants under his command admired him. He also deserves a reputation for being brave and good at fighting.
Western Xia, who was still making pre-war preparations, was attacked unexpectedly. In just a few days, the important city of Yinzhou was lost. This shocked the whole country of Western Xia, and at the same time was extremely angry. They were angry that Song Guo actually played a raid! It's their patent!
Enraged, Li Qianshun sent an envoy to denounce the victorious army's undeclared war. At the same time, the raising of materials and the gathering of military horses were accelerated. He's ready to go on a personal expedition. As for the autumn harvest or something, he couldn't care about it anymore. Anyway, as long as you win, you can go directly to Song Guo to grab it. If you lose, what will you receive? Do you help the Song people collect it?
Yue Fei, who had come to Yinzhou with a large army, met with the angry Western Xia envoy, after listening to a long list of stinking and long nonsense that the envoy said with spit Xingzi. Yue Fei half-squinted his eyes and said coldly, "What is the undeclared war?" Didn't His Royal Highness King Yan already send you a credential? What else is there to say about this? Either surrender or lead your troops to battle! Don't talk about anything else! ”
The envoy went back in disgrace, and the Changsheng army of nearly 200,000 set up a position near Yinzhou City. All kinds of materials were transferred from the rear, waiting for the arrival of the main force of Western Xia.
......
Modern time and space, Indian Ocean, Diego Garcia Island.
Just when a large-scale decisive battle in the target time and space was about to explode, Gao Yang came here. He didn't come by plane, but by a space battleship that had just been activated from the point of origin.
This is a large warship that can do interstellar travel. It can't drive in the light itself, and can only reach 90 percent sublight at most. However, this kind of warship can travel long distances through the stargate, and it is very powerful in both attack and defense!
The length of the battleship was more than two kilometers, and the height was at least dozens of stories high. The overall image resembles a somewhat flattened cylinder. Painted in silver-gray throughout, all weapon systems are built-in. This is also to facilitate the protection of the energy shield when performing the Stargate shuttle.
The battleship was originally numbered, but it was canceled by Gaoyang. He renamed the ship 'Moonlight' and made it his own.
When this warship, which has a modern level of technology and can directly use anti-gravity devices to stay in mid-air, appeared over the island's military base. Everyone's eyes were deeply attracted.
"Everyone is coming?" After stepping off the battleship, Gao Yang greeted casually, and asked Zhao Chengze, who was greeting him on the side, slightly sideways.
"Those who have the strength and qualifications to know about this matter have sent representatives." Without waiting for Zhao Cheng to answer, Du Qixi on the other side said out loud.
"Hmm." Gao Yang nodded. I looked around at the many people who looked surprised, ecstatic, confused, excited, and so on. He raised his eyebrows, chuckled, and followed the person who greeted him towards a white base building not far away.
In the large conference room on the second floor of the building, representatives from many powerful countries gathered around the window, looking inexplicably at the huge warship outside that almost blocked half of the sky!
"Really." An American general took off his glasses, wiped them gently, and whispered, "Unthinkable!" ”
All the people in this room are generals! The lowest rank is also a lieutenant general! They come from all the great powers, and they represent the most powerful military on the planet. Today, these former competitors are gathered here at the same time to deal with a possible alien invasion! (To be continued!)
