>"This is the modern version of the river boat unit!" "Zhao Ta understood, the Hun Detachment Army is the Xia Army's water army, but it is only out of auxiliary status, and its status in the Xia Army is not high, so it is not famous, but as a surprise soldier, it can often play an unexpected role. CaIHonGWeNXue.

"Zhao Zhong, how many troops are guarding the gates of the irrigation area along the river?" Zhao Ta understood the situation clearly and asked.

"Lord Wang, there is a team of soldiers on duty at each gate!" Zhao Zhong replied, "Lord Wang, won't the Xia Jun's target be there?" "He is also his 'wise and foolish' guy, he looks dumbfounded, but he has a lot of eyes, and he immediately thought of something from the prince's question.

"I have to guard against it, the number of Xia Jun's sailors that can be seen now is about two thousand, maybe this is also the vanguard force, we have fought with the Xia army many times, they must know that Lu Dao will not be able to conquer Dongguan Town with such a few people, so I judge that their target is the Qinqu Gate, and they want to repeat the old tricks, and when the rain is abundant and the water level is rising, release water to irrigate the camp!" Zhao Ta bowed slightly, "You immediately increase troops to each outpost, you must reach the strength of a capital, and each point must not be less than two machine guns, Qin Qu's strength must be strengthened!" ”

"Yes, Lord Wang, but in this way, we will have to transfer two battalions of troops, and the troops in the city will inevitably be empty, if the goal of the Xia army is Dongguan Town, then..." Zhao Zhong said, but he quickly thought that the city was still the camp of the prince, and it would not be a sin to put the prince in danger.

"I know your little abacus, don't worry, I immediately ordered two battalions of archers to come to help, now you are at ease!" Zhao Ta smiled, patted Zhao Zhong on the shoulder and said.

"Hehe, are your subordinates still worried about the safety of the prince!" Zhao Zhong was told by the prince that he was embarrassed, smiled embarrassedly, and hurriedly arranged for his troops to go out of the city.

"Lord Wang, why did you only send two battalions of archers, and didn't send a large army to help, and annihilated the Xia army in one fell swoop?" Zhe Meiluan was puzzled by the prince's arrangement and asked curiously.

"It's not as simple as it seems. The assassination of this king, the changing lights on the other side, and the sneak attack of the Hun De army, these seemingly isolated things, in fact, you just need to think about them together. will understand that these are premeditated by the Xia army, and in Lingzhou City, the Xia army has 50,000 Chen soldiers, plus the strength of the dots. The number of soldiers in battle will not be less than 80,000, so there is still a battle force, and we are only busy dealing with various emergencies so far, and the key targets to be attacked by the Xia army are unknown. Xia Jun will take the opportunity to send troops to achieve his goal! Zhao said with a smile.

"Oh, so the prince only divides his troops to defend key targets and wait and see what happens!" Zhi Meiluan said suddenly.

"Almost!" Zhao Ta nodded with a smile and said, and then he ordered someone to send an order to all the troops, and each battalion was on strict alert, and no one was allowed to move without an order, but Wangfu was very nervous at this time, and the assassins in the city had not been cleared up at this time. The prince stood at the head of the city, and the goal was too obvious. It will not be safe to fight later, thinking that he will definitely not agree to let him go back to the city, so he coaxed the prince to the city tower and occupied the entire second floor. Guards were arranged at each window to wait, and he was not far from the prince's side. Li Shuo led the guards to surround the city tower, and no one was allowed to enter and leave at will.

The Xia army, which was going down the river, also entered the range of the artillery of the Loyal Army at this time. The artillery that had been waiting for the battle began to fire, and Zhao Ta leaned on the window and looked out. Wangfu and Xiangfu were holding a shield and nervously guarding the prince's side. The artillery fire was very fierce, but the effect made Zhao Ta shake his head and fire a solid bullet, unless he hit the target, he would not even jump for a moment, he could only stir up a column of water and sink to the bottom of the river; Launching flowering shells, the ignition fuses they use are not waterproof, and they fall into the water and are annihilated after a slight delay, and the effect is not as good as solid bullets, which is really a bit of a cannon to hit mosquitoes! …,

"Let Zhao Zhong stop the artillery fire, this is purely a waste of gunpowder, and wait for the enemy to dock before fighting!" It's really not a good family to know the price of firewood and rice, this cannon is a string of copper coins thrown into the water for nothing, but fortunately, it can still be heard, so it is better to let them rest if they rely on the character of the desperate hit rate, Zhao Ta frowned and said.

The tenacious Xia army sailors paddled hard and approached the river bank, but they dodged the cannons and machine guns. After the battle to defend Xiazhou City, the loyal brave army summed up a set of tactics, built a sheep and horse wall in front of the city, and established a ring fortification composed of individual bunkers and machine gun fortresses as the first line of defense of the city. When the Xia army entered the effective range of the muskets, 10,000 guns were fired in unison, and a rainstorm of bullets was sprinkled on the Xia army's sailors in the river.

The person who was shot kicked his legs and went with the current, unfortunately, those who pouted and blew for a long time to blow up the 'muddy' were drilled out of the eye by the bullet, and were beaten into the original shape and turned into a secondary stinky skin, the people on it did not want to be washed away by the water, they could only swim to the shore as much as possible, and they finally touched the river bank and successfully touched the line, but they found that they still couldn't get rid of the bad luck, and there was no way to go ashore, so they could only pick the river bank with their hands, and hide under the embankment, trying not to let themselves be hit by the bullets, and were taken away by the rapid water of the river...

"Tsk, these water thieves are drenched in light rain and are in the water, will they catch a cold when they go back!" Zhao Ta looked at the Xia army struggling in the water, and said with deep sympathy.

At this time, the archers of the Tibetan army who rushed to reinforce also arrived, and immediately joined the battle, the muskets could only shoot directly, but the bows and arrows could be thrown, and the Xia troops who were hiding under the embankment had nowhere to hide, and after a few rounds of volleys, there were one hundred and ten more floating corpses in the Yellow River. Xia Jun was not a fool, he quickly changed his tactics, and after entering the range of the Song army's firearms, he jumped off Hun Tuo one after another, only exposing his head and pushing Hun Tu to swim forward, and at the same time widening the distance between each other, reducing the chance of hitting.

Several of the Xia army's huge rafts finally landed, and they finally went ashore with the corpses of their companions and the muddy rafts that came ashore, built bunkers, established beachheads, and gradually advanced forward. But at this time, the artillery of the Song army began to shoot again, and the bunkers they built were like paper paste in front of the artillery, and they were blown to pieces after a few rounds of artillery fire, which reminded Zhao Ta of the American troops who landed in Normandy in the movie of his previous life, suppressed by the fierce artillery fire of the German army on the beachhead, like a lamb to be slaughtered in the dense rain of bullets with nowhere to hide, waiting for a bullet from nowhere to take his life...

"Lord Yu, the Xia army of Lingzhou City launched a night attack at the south gate, and was repelled by the dragon general and the defenders of Zelu Road!"

"Lord Yu, the Xia army of Lingzhou City launched a night attack at the north gate, and was repelled by the defenders of Huanqing Road!"

"Lord Yu, the scout battalion found that the Xia army of Jingzhou and Yongzhou had set up a pontoon bridge over the Yellow River, and it seemed that there was a trend of reinforcement to Lingzhou!"

"Lord Yu, a Xia army and navy took advantage of our interception and attack on the water army of Dongguan Town, secretly crossed the river, attacked Qin Canal and other sluices, and tried to dig the canal to release water!"

"Lord Yu, the guards have searched the city, and have hunted down the assassins in the camp, and found someone in the city who tried to attack the granary, which has now been annihilated, and is searching for the spies lurking in the city!" ．．．

"This is definitely a planned and premeditated action, but who planned such a big action, and what is the ultimate goal of his dispatch of so much force?" As the information reached Zhao Ta, his attention also shifted from Dongguan Town to the entire Lingzhou battlefield, and the person who planned the operation could be called thoughtful and well-planned, he looked at the red and blue arrows on the map and thought.

"The assassins were sent to assassinate themselves in order to leave the entire besieging force leaderless and thrown into chaos; The defenders of Lingzhou City launched night attacks everywhere in order to contain our army and unable to support each other; The Xia army attacking Dongguan Town wanted to take advantage of the chaos to burn down the granary and cause chaos, but they knew that Dongguan Town was heavily defended, and they were unable to attack it without siege equipment and heavy weapons support, but they still launched moth-like attacks again and again, so they had only one purpose! Zhao Ta quickly analyzed the information coming from everywhere, and his thoughts became clear. …,

"Qin Qu, the enemy is repeating his old tricks, the attacks everywhere are feints, Qin Qu is their ultimate goal, desperately attacking Dongguan Town is not allowing us to divide our troops to support the defenders guarding the gate!" Zhao Tan's finger fell on the gate of Qinqu, this plan can be described as flawless, but the assassin who assassinated him has not yet succeeded, or the assassin is too confident and believes that he will definitely die, so he preemptively set fire to the Shuaifu.

And this firelight was the signal for attacks everywhere, so Lingzhou City and the Xingqing Mansion reinforcements on the other bank launched an attack at the same time. Unexpectedly, Zhao Ta accidentally discovered the abnormal light of the Xingzhou reinforcements, escaped the assassination, and made arrangements with his keen sense, while the Xia troops everywhere were at a loss and launched their own attacks according to the plan.

"Order, order the three battalions of the lion general and the three battalions of the leopard general to quickly reinforce the gates of the irrigation areas along the coast to ensure that they are not lost, if they are lost, the military law will be engaged!" Zhao Ta ordered, "The rest of the departments only need to be strictly guarded, and they are not allowed to fight!" ”

"Lord Wang, what about the Xia army over there in Jingzhou, do you send troops to intercept and monitor?" Seeing that the prince had issued several orders in a row, Zhe Meiluan left it over there, and hurriedly reminded him.

"Don't worry about them, their task is to pick up cheap ones, as long as the gate is not lost here, we will be safe and sound, and they will naturally be fine!" Zhao Tan explained with a smile.

"The prince is not good, Captain Zhao is injured!" Zhao Ta had just relaxed a little, and an internal guard suddenly ran in in panic and said.

"Captain Zhao, which Captain Zhao, say it quickly!" Zhao Ta dragged the internal guard and grabbed him by the collar and asked.

"It's Captain Zhao Xin!" The guard was taken aback and hurriedly said.

"Zhao Xin! Is he seriously injured..."Zhao Ta's face changed, and he asked nervously. (To be continued......)
