The Guards Battalion concentrated the elite of the Loyal Army, but after the outbreak of the war, most of them only stood in the rear as a reserve to cheer, and the only time they went into battle was only to block the Chago Brigade at the Turquoise River, and the big battle was not caught once. There is no pop-up window on the net and is updated quickly// Although everyone said it well, you are the treasure of our army, the most embarrassing trump card in the hands of the prince, but watching people play lively in front, and the stars on the military flag are filled up one by one, everyone is not a taste in their hearts, and it is inevitable that there will be whispers on their mouths.

These words reached Zhao Xin's ears, as if the guard battalion he led was just a vase beside the prince, and it had become a useless ornament in the silver-like wax gun head, of course, he couldn't be angry, today the prince was determined to use them, and naturally he didn't want to let go of this opportunity to show his combat strength and block everyone's mouth, so she tried her best to promote this matter. And after Zhe Meiluan learned Zhao Xin's true identity, she had a sense of crisis even more, and she didn't want the prince to underestimate herself, which was related to her status in his heart in the future, so she didn't want to let it go.

Although the two had different intentions, they finally helped Zhao Ta. When the people up and down of the guard battalion heard that the prince was going to use their trump card, they were also eager to try it and prepared to try it. And Zhao Ta is thinking more long-term, in addition to preventing the famous Anhui dog from jumping over the wall to burn the grain and grass, there is also a huge hidden worry buried in his heart, the reason for choosing to launch a siege campaign at noon is to take advantage of the Xingzhou Xia army's late response, and the time difference between crossing the river at night to reinforce will make raw rice into mature rice.

Now all the reinforcements are pressed except for the Hedong Army defending Dongguan Town, and there are no mobile troops in their hands. Once Lingzhou City cannot be attacked for a long time. The Western Xia sent reinforcements after dawn, and they would face the situation of being attacked on their backs, so they had to abandon the Lingzhou City that was about to be handed over to deal with the reinforced Xia army. Now the only way to do this is to quickly capture the inner city and capture or kill the OSS of Asui Asumi. in order to disintegrate the Xia army in the city, destroy their confidence in resistance, and control the whole city.

In addition, the Guards Battalion is its own basic force, and the proportion of people who have been awarded the highest number of officers is also the highest, which means that even if the Loyal Army is disbanded, as long as this guard is still there, he can reorganize a unit on the basis of it in a short time. No more starting from scratch. And if a unit does not experience the flames of war for a long time, it will inevitably degenerate, just like those forbidden armies in the early Song Dynasty, they were all strong troops at the beginning. Later, the garrison division and peace enjoyed peace, but they all became a wreck and became a laughing stock in history.

Zhao Ren thought about what the prince said, so he had no choice but to agree. Following Zhao Xin's suggestion, he strengthened a machine gun battalion and his own personal guard to them, thinking that with the addition of several battalions of archers of the Fan Army guarding the Chinese army, the strength of the troops was about the same as the number of Xia troops guarding the inner city, so he was relieved to go to command the generals to rescue the Shaanxi army. Destroy the remnants of the enemy in the city...

Zhao Ta approached the inner city to inspect it, and saw that all the trees within 200 steps outside the inner city had been cut down. Houses and bridges were demolished, clearing the shooting boundary. You can see the cornices of the palace and the spire of the pagoda in the city. Although the city wall was much shorter than the outer city, there were not many defensive measures, and in order to prevent the Song army from setting fire, the city was not only covered with wet felt, but also painted with mud. There is not only a moat outside the city, but also a trench dug up, it seems that the name of the Ming Hui has a premonition, knowing that the outer city of the road can not be defended, so he has also put a lot of effort into the inner city.

Look at the city wall again, there are many sheds, the female wall is added a grate, and a watchtower is erected in the middle of the city, and various lanterns are hung. Every ten steps on the city wall, a pine torch is inserted, and a lantern is tied to the belly of the wall, which illuminates the city above and below the city. One step on the city, put a soldier, ten steps to increase five people, five steps have five long, ten steps have ten long, a hundred steps have generals, all over the soldiers, at this time to see the Song army forced to the city, the people are still strengthening the city wall, carrying the city defense equipment. The circumference of the inner city is only more than 1,000 steps, thinking that it was also not rich at the beginning of the founding of the Western Xia, and it was not a long time to establish the capital here. …,

Zhao Tan turned around, quickly formulated a battle plan, and chose Xicheng as the main direction of attack, because this side is close to Lin Yuan, the terrain is flat, the place is large enough, there are no dwellings around, and the city is close to the cang, which is easy to control. The city wall is the old city left when Lingzhou City was built, although it has been repaired, but after thousands of years of wind and rain, it is much weaker than other places. In this projectile land, it is heavily defended, and it is almost impossible to sneak attack, only a strong attack. While arranging battle plans, Zhao Tan also arranged for people to cut down trees, collect door panels, large logs to make simple pontoon bridges, long ladders and other siege equipment.

When everything was arranged, the troops entered the attack position. The assault began with the most characteristic artillery attack of the Braves, while the selected shooters quickly extinguished the lights hanging at the head and belly of the city. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the three field squadrons of the Guards Battalion, which were the main attackers, went out to the edge of the trench, and then immediately fired at the head of the city to suppress the enemy's counterattack, and the assault team began to erect a simple bridge through the outer trench.

At this time, the firepower was tight again, the artillery fired one in a short time, the machine gun team that served as close fire support also fired fiercely, and the various units also concentrated their fire on the head of the city, and the assault team cast smoke to block the enemy's sight, taking advantage of the opportunity for the enemy to be stunned, the operation team erected a pontoon bridge as quickly as possible, and the assault team immediately crossed the river with siege equipment to break under the city and clear the wooden fence at the foot corner.

"Stop shelling, machine gun cover!" Seeing a red signal flare rising from the city, Zhao Ta hurriedly ordered, the signal flare is a signal that the assault team is in position, and also indicates their position, the artillery immediately stopped shelling, and the machine gun quickly shifted the direction of fire, leaving room for the commando to operate.

"Take the ladder, go to town!" Lin Shuo, the captain of the first squadron of the guards, ordered to lean against the wall and set up a long ladder at the moment when the artillery fire stopped, at this time, the Xia army had not yet reacted from the fierce firepower, the height of the inner city was no more than five zhang, and the height of the wall of the Xiangyi Palace, it was nothing to these guards, and the people who couldn't wait had already set up a human ladder to go to the city. Lin Shuo held a gun in one hand and a knife in the other, and he didn't need to hold on to the ladder at all, so he went to the city first in three steps.

Most of the city's defenses have been destroyed by artillery fire, but there are inevitably shooting dead ends, and the remaining Xia soldiers have just woken up and found that the Song army has gone to the city, but before they can grab their weapons, the knife has been cut to the neck... The soldiers of the Guards Battalion, who went to the city in various ways, did not have to wait for orders, and immediately formed battle groups to form a strong combat collective that protected each other.

Rigorous, brutal training turns a combat squad into a crazy, powerful weapon of killing. They don't have to worry about their backs at all, they just need to kill the enemies in front of them, or even the enemies that appear in their sight, because enough training and long-term running-in have allowed them to form a subconscious tacit understanding, and they can understand each other's meaning with a look and a simple action.

The assault team quickly consolidated the breakthrough, established a support position, and after the supporting troops went to the city, they immediately joined the battle and repelled the counterattacking Xia army, and then used machine guns and explosives packs to crush the Xia army under the city, and a group of people immediately went down the city. Instead of attacking the heavily fortified gates, they blew up a section of the city wall with more than a dozen large explosive packs. Before the smoke and dust cleared, the other two squadrons of the guards battalion lying outside the city had already rushed into the city, the second squadron under the command of Li Quan set up a blocking line to block the rushing Xia army, and the third squadron under the leadership of Ma Wei launched an attack on the cangli located in the corner of the city...

As the commanders of the Tibetan army entered the battle, the breach became bigger and bigger, and the battle shifted from the battle for the city wall to the battle on the ground. Zhao Ta entered the inner city under the escort of the inner guard squadron, and at this time, the troops entering the city had established a blocking line with a width of 100 paces and a length of 200 paces against the city wall, blocking the swarming Xia army counterattack troops, and the two armies temporarily fell into a standoff. He ordered Zhao Ren's personal guards and a command of the archers of the Fan tribe to join the battle, occupy the warehouse as soon as possible, extinguish the embers, and save everyone's jobs first. …,

"Second Master, now that Xicheng is basically controlled by us, as long as there is a burst of artillery bombardment, we can occupy the entire inner city!" Zhao Xin said.

"It's a pity that these palaces are ruined!" Zhao Ta looked at the towering and splendid palace in front of him and smacked his teeth and said, It has always been easy to destroy and difficult to build, these are all money!

"Second master, but if you want to fight house by house, it will inevitably cause large casualties, and I'm afraid the palace won't be able to keep it!" Zhao Xin knew that the prince's wealth was crazy again, and he was a little reluctant.

"Well, this is really a problem, why didn't the rabbit cub surrender?" Zhao Ta touched his chin and said.

"Second master, haven't you heard of Wenchen's Death Festival, this old rabbit cub has read too many books, how can he not know this, he is thinking about his own name and carrying it to the end!" Zhao Xin said.

"Yes, he's a nerd, and of course he knows some great truths about sacrificing himself for the people, so you can talk to him!" Zhao Ta is not in a hurry at this time, the inner city has been opened, the grain and grass have arrived, there is still a period of time before dawn, if he can say that he can move the name of Anhui, not only can he keep this palace, but also reduce casualties, if he is stubborn, he only needs to push the artillery to kill him, it is really not possible to burn it.

"Stop shooting, shout!" Zhao Ta thought about it, and this transaction did not lose money, so he ordered, "Tell Wei Ming Anhui, now that Lingzhou City has been captured by our army, if he doesn't surrender again, I will slaughter the entire city..."
