Chapter 24: Heaven Collapses (28)

The news of the 100,000 Liao army Chen Bing Jingshi City spread like the wind all over Jingshi City.

Jingshi City has fallen into the biggest panic in the past hundred years, Jingshi City has been under martial law, and now Jingshi City has only allowed entry and not exit.

The gates of the gates of the Jingshi City are closed, except that when the Qinwang army arrives in the Jingshi City, the gate will be opened to let the Qinwang army enter the Jingshi City, and after the Qinwang army enters the Jingshi City, the city gate will be closed immediately.

The nerves of the nearly one million people of Jingshi City were tense to the extreme.

The war became more and more tense, and after the Liao army arrived at the city of Jingshi, the morale reached its peak, and the barbarians who entered the pass, whether it was the Liao army or the Menggu tribe, or the barbarians of the rest of the tribes, were full of self-confidence.

Wanyan Haiya arrived at the Jingshi City one step ahead of Wanyan Shengcong, and then, after many days of strong attack, Wanyan Shengcong's troops finally adopted Chen Yankai's suggestion to dig tunnels to the foundation of the city wall of Sanhe City. After digging through the foundation of the walls of Mikawa Castle, he stuffed it with gunpowder and blasted it.

With a shocking bang, the ground of Sanhe City shook, and after the loud noise, the city wall of Sanhe City was blown down, and the Liao army took advantage of the situation to attack Sanhe City, and Sanhe City was lost.

After Yan Shengcong captured Sanhe City, he immediately marched into Tongzhou, and the capture of Tongzhou City was surprisingly smooth, and it only took half a day to take the last barrier to Jingshi City. After capturing Tongzhou City, Wanyan Shengcong continued to march, and finally garrisoned Zhengcunba, and Wanyan Haiya formed a two-way attack on Jingshi City, and Jingshi City was in danger.

――――――

In the cold winter, even if it is a sunny day, the cold wind blows in the face, and the face is uncomfortable with other knives.

He Tengxiao stood on the tower of the Acropolis of Jinmen and looked out to the northwest, his eyes were full of pale yellow desolation.

The north is empty, with no pedestrians in sight, and few refugees have fled south since yesterday. This shows that the war in the north is getting more and more intense, and the city of Jingshi has been put under martial law.

In the three hundred years since the founding of the Great Zhao Dynasty, Jingshi City has only been under martial law once, and only when the Meng ancients surrounded Jingshi City during the Muzong period, the whole city of Jingshi City was under martial law. This time the martial law in Jingshi City is the second martial law in the history of Jingshi City.

As the Liao army entered the vicinity of Jingshi City, the Liao army released sentry cavalry on a large scale to the surroundings to spy on the situation around Jingshi City and find out the details of the army of King Qin of Great Zhao.

"It seems that the Liao army has arrived in Jingshi City." Zhang Yuyang said, "The martial law in Jingshi City shows the tension of this war. ”

"It has only been how long the Liao army has entered the territory of Beizhili, and it has directly hit the city of Jingshi, what is the town army of Beizhili doing!" Chang Qing was powerless to complain about the performance of the town army of Beizhili, except for the town army of Huairou City and Sanhe City, the town army of the rest of the cities was purely the same as nothing!

"When does General He plan to go north to King Qin, the capital division? Which general stayed behind to guard the Jinmen? The cold wind was blowing in his face, Liu Shu's body was blown by the cold wind, he tightened the cloak on his body to keep out the cold, and asked He Tengxiao.

When will He Tengxiao go north to King Qin, and who will stay in the Acropolis of Jinmen is the question he is most concerned about.

"When the scouts who are released bring back the news from the north, they will go north to King Qin." He Tengxiao gave the answer.

He Tengxiao was not familiar with Beizhili, and he was not very sure, and He Tengxiao did not dare to enter rashly.

It has been two days since the sentry was released, and no one has returned to report the situation. He Tengxiao couldn't help but feel a little worried about these sentry horses.

Most of these sentry horses are veterans of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, all of them are one in a hundred, or even one in a thousand elites, they are He Tengxiao's baby bumps, and the loss of any of them is enough to make He Tengxiao's heart ache for a while.

The new soldiers are easy to practice, but these veterans with rich combat experience in the Liao army are rare. If you want to train a sentry that can be used so easily, you can't do it in a year and a half.

He Tengxiao didn't want any accidents to happen to these veterans.

Suddenly, a group of men and horses appeared in the northern part of the grass and fled south.

He Tengxiao raised the telescope in his hand to observe the situation in the distance, it was a group of fleeing refugees, the number was only about a hundred, to He Tengxiao's surprise, among these refugees, He Tengxiao saw the figure of the sentry of the Xiao cavalry camp.

After the sentry riders broke off, they fired arrows behind them from time to time. He Tengxiao suddenly understood that the sentry cavalry of the Xiao cavalry camp and this group of refugees were entangled by the Liao army.

"The thief (his) mother, was bitten by the Liao army, went out of the city to save them?" Zhang Yuyang asked.

Being bitten by the Liao army in the field is not a joke, the field ability of the Liao army Zhang Yuyang has seen it, basically the Zhao army that was entangled by the Liao army in the field did not have reinforcements to help, and the final fate was to be annihilated by the Liao army with dumplings.

"The number of Liao troops will not be large, it may be the sentinel of the Liao army." He Tengxiao judged and said, "Now the main target of the Liao army is Jingshi City, except for Jingshi City, the Liao army will not use troops on a large scale in the surrounding areas, and the Liao army will only send sentry cavalry as eyes to observe the situation around Jingshi City." The collision between our sentry and the Liao army sentry was also an accident. ”

Soon, the figure of the Liao army appeared above the horizon, and it was indeed the Liao army! Looking at the knights wearing plain white robes, He Tengxiao was 100% sure that this group of knights was the Liao army.

"The Liao army is dressed really weirdly." This is the first time Liu Shu has witnessed the true face of the Liao army, and the dress of the Liao army surprised Liu Shu, in fact, Liu Shu was also surprised when he saw the black military robe of He Tengxiao's cavalry camp when he saw it just now, and even suspected that He Tengxiao was a foreign army, but the Liao army's dress in front of him made Liu Shu even more surprised.

"Why did the Liao army wear white all over his body, and he was involved in the death of the family, and they died in sweat?" Kong Xiangtao said bluntly, he really couldn't imagine that there would be an army wearing a white uniform.

"The military uniform of the Liao army is yellow, and the number of soldiers of the Manshu tribe in the victory of Liaoyang is as high as 30,000, and the Liao army wears white to avenge the shame." Zhang Yuyang explained.

The Liao army sentinel rode a lot of horses, at least no one had two horses, or even no one had three horses. Moreover, the Liao army has good foot strength and superb riding skills, and almost everyone is a natural knight among the people who started on the back of the Manshu tribe. Those who can do sentry riding are naturally the best of the best.

Through the monoculars, He Tengxiao roughly observed the number of Liao troops. The number of this group of Liao troops was about 70 people, almost half of the recorded men.

The courage of the Liao army is really fat, and only more than 70 people dare to pursue the Jinmen guards alone, as if they were in a no-man's land.

The vast majority of the soldiers in He Tengxiao's hands were foot soldiers. The Tengbao battalion had 800 soldiers, and He Tengxiao also brought 500 troops to King Qin this time. It's just that the troops of the Tengbao battalion are the elite in the Zhao army, but they are really powerless to deal with these sentry cavalry of the Liao army, and the level of the two is not at the same level at all.

Moreover, the Liao army is one person, two horses to three horses, He Tengxiao's troops only do one person and one horse, and they cannot change horses. (To be continued.) )
