Chapter 145: Battle in the Empty City (4)

Xixia wall-climbing armor: "Why don't you go through the door, but climb the wall?" ”

Xixia Wall Climbing Army B: "...... I didn't think about it. I'm thinking now, why isn't there any movement on the wall? As they spoke, the five hundred horsemen led by Kim Shou began to enter the city. It is undeniable that Li Huan is still a bit level, and understands that the army must be deployed in order to have combat effectiveness. And use multiple offensive means to disrupt the enemy. Although all the means are right, it is just ......

The Western Xia army was the first to climb the city wall, only to see that the southern city was brilliantly lit, while the north street was lifeless, and there was not even a spark. The Western Xia army B looked around, and there was not even a single guard on the city wall. Even if he was stupid, he felt weird. You must know that even an ordinary small county has village soldiers stationed on the city wall, not to mention a military town. If it's winter, there is a possibility of desertion. But now it's almost summer, and the most suspicious thing is that there is not even a basic lighting.

Xixia Junyi asked, "Why is there no fire brother?" ”

The Xixia military armor raised his torch and said, "Yes!" ”

Xixia Junyi only felt a light in his eyes, but this was not the credit of Xixia Junjia, but a fire dragon suddenly appeared on North Street. The fire was at the junction of North and South Streets, but almost in the blink of an eye, it spread directly to the entire North Street. Looking at it again, Jun Yi was shocked, looking down from the city wall, the north street was empty, full of wolves, and he didn't even find anything that looked like the skeleton of a house. And at this time, after entering the city, the phantom jade who was ready to light the fire was stupid on the spot with a torch in his hand, there were no buildings, where to set the fire?

And Li Huan, the commander of the main army that entered the city, had one word in his head: Zhongji. At this time, the fire source in the north and south streets suddenly ignited, and the sound of arrows breaking through the air was endless. When I looked up, I saw that the vanguard of Jin Shou fell down with men and horses as if they had been cut grass.

Almost at the same time, under the light of several fire dragons, the North Street was very bright. Li Huan spat blood after seeing the situation clearly, and the Song army actually demolished almost all the buildings on North Street. Then dig a trench and pour in fierce fire oil as a lighting tool. What a loser's way of playing, you must know that fierce fire oil is very valuable, and the daily output is very low. But the loser's style of play made him fully understand the current situation.

More than 200 black-painted rocket vehicles lined up to separate the southern and northern cities. Look at the rocket car is all made of pig iron, four feet high, two feet wide, and the estimated weight is more than 100 catties. Needless to say, the killing rockets in it, even if they are used as obstacles, the more horses will not be able to pass.

Remove? The withdrawal means that the vanguard of Jin Shou has been completely cut off. The most important thing is that the troops behind do not know about it at all. I am in the same state as them, let alone turning the horse's head, as soon as I stop, the cavalry behind will knock me into pulp. In the midst of danger, Li Huan didn't have time to say hello, gritted his teeth and turned to the left. The large army behind naturally followed his main general and turned to the open space on the left.

After going around in half a circle, Li Huan finally ordered: "Withdraw!" "Half a circle, and you'll be back at the gates. But...... Suddenly, the artillery rang out in the southern city. Countless incendiary bombs roared towards the north gate, and almost instantly, the north gate turned into a hell's furnace, and the temperature was so high that people didn't dare to approach it.

"General, what should I do?" A general asked as he turned his horse's head to stop the horses' commotion.

What to do? Rush, definitely can't rush. He had already seen clearly the strength of Nancheng, what 600 people, at least 5,000 people. There were cavalry on the left and right, and the pikemen in the middle three rows of pikemen were quietly watching everything on their side. What's even worse is that there are rocket cars behind the rocket cars, three in a row. No brave horse can cross it. There is still a chance to retreat, you can go up the city wall and go down from the city. But...... In this way, you would be abandoning your horse. Abandoning his horse and being pursued by cavalry on the plains is better than committing suicide. Li Huan has always had a word swirling in his head, that is: the whole army is annihilated!

At this time, there was another whistling sound, and the incendiary bombs were reinforced. The two rocket vans on South Street were moved away by four soldiers with great difficulty, and then a voice shouted: "Lay down your arms, come from here with your bare hands, and avoid death." ”

Then the whole Song army shouted together: "Those who lay down their arms will not die." ”

"Bastard." Li Huan roared angrily: "Xiao Yin, isn't it you?" ”

The voice appeared again, Xiao Yin took off his cloth hat and rode on a horse to appear in the small passage and shouted: "It's useless, General Li, there are still 20,000 cavalry behind the people." ”

A horse slowly walked to Xiao Yin's side: "In the lower Song Dynasty, I promise everyone that as long as you put down your weapons, eat and drink well." I want rice and hot fish soup. To greasy braised pork, there is. Do you want a beautiful girl?,There are too.。 Just lay down your arms, and everything is there. By the way, Ben will be patient, but the brothers of the tube rocket car and the incendiary cannon will not be patient. ”

"Young man, be patient." Several horses appeared, shields on all sides to cover the people who spoke behind them: "My name is Ouyang, one of the Yangping Zhixian and Qinfeng Road Supervisors, but I only take one of the Yulu." All the heroes of Western Xia are happy. Brother Li, we are acquaintances, and we don't say hello when we meet. ”

Li Huan sneered: "I didn't see your face." ”

"This ...... I'm sorry, there is a beautiful and glamorous wife in this county, who has no eyes for a stray arrow, and I don't want to die so soon. Besides, if I die, how will the bonus of one or two silver per brother be paid? ”

“hoho！” All the Song soldiers were in high spirits, and it was better to choose a rich general than to choose a wise general, a fierce general, and a Confucian general in this war.

Ouyang raised his hand to make everyone quiet and said, "Brother Li, I believe you have seen the current situation very clearly, but I still want to remind you that this is no longer a war." It's called ***! You are not afraid of death, can you bear to have your subordinates killed in front of you like chickens? Here I can assure you that all of you don't have to be slaves, you don't have to work. Eat enough and drink enough. In fact, my purpose is also very simple, Brother Li, you also know that I am a businessman, and no matter what I have, it is valuable in my eyes. Don't be careful, if you don't kill you, it's just for a few ransom money, your family is very rich, and you won't care about these two little money. Other than that...... You'd better persuade your brothers on the walls that the horses have been scared away. If they want to run, my side can only kill you quickly. Don't doubt my words, rocket car, seven seven forty-nine arrows at a time, ignore your cold forging armor. Eighty artillery pieces, countless hand-throwing guns. So to tell you, the equipment reserves in the county can hit 100,000 of you head-on. ”

"We fought with them." A gauntlet gritted his teeth.

"How to spell? Where to fight? Li Huan sighed deeply, he believed Ouyang's words, he was not afraid of death, but he couldn't let his brothers innocently give their lives. Even if he wants to take everyone to death, everyone has to agree, seeing that everyone is languishing and their morale is extremely low. Don't say that there is no place to work hard, even if there is a place to fight hard, it will not be an opponent. Li Huan closed his eyes and said, "Dismount and abandon your weapon." ”

With the sound of gold and iron, Ouyang said to the people around him: "You clean up, I'll sleep." Wang 5 and Zhao 6, each of whom divided two taels of silver. ”

"Yes!"

The next morning, Li Huan was invited to have breakfast with Ouyang. The location of the city gate is being completely renovated. After yesterday's artillery bombardment, the city gates were burned. Then the work of rebuilding North Street had to be done. If there are many people, they are not afraid of too many things, and if the forbidden army is not mobilized, they can also draw 10,000 people from the logistics box army to do it.

"You may be seated." There was breakfast in front of Ouyang, which was very simple fritters, buns and soy milk. More than ten meters away, Li Huan was almost the same in front of him, but there was an extra plate of meat. Ouyang said: "If you don't eat this breakfast, it's easy to get gallstones, so in order to take care of your taste, I specially added meat." ”

Li Huan looked very haggard, obviously didn't close his eyes all night, and sat down unceremoniously and asked, "What do you want?" ”

"What do I want, you ask? Your wife was caught by me, and I didn't do anything to her. So not how I want to. Ouyang paused: "It's what we want to do." ”

"We?"

"That's right! We've investigated, you're royalty. If you want, the Great Song Dynasty can crown you the king of Western Xia. Ouyang stopped Li Huan and said, "Listen to me first, when you look at this battle, do you think that Xixia has suffered this time?" I've heard that the army besieging the city already has deserters. Think about it, no one wants to do it with a firearm when they are hungry...... Let me tell you about my personal purpose, which is to build the Western Xia...... Let me ask you first, do you know what the salary of an ordinary worker in my Yangping is? ”

"......" Li Huan didn't speak.

"Two! Literacy at least four times. It only took me three years, and this year's Yangping tax profit is 4 million! This is also a county in Yangping, do you know how many counties there are in the Great Song Dynasty? How could the Western Xia consume more energy than the Great Song Dynasty, all the gunpowder used yesterday could be made in less than two hours from a factory under me. If you want to keep a spark for the Tangut party, I'm sure you'll know how to choose. Our emperor is saying, take back the spirit and eternal happiness. But I can tell you, only take these two places, I have no interest in tossing, I get tens of thousands of dollars a day, why bother to come to this place where birds don't lay eggs. The north of Hengshan belongs to you, and the west of Liang to Guazhou belongs to me. When the time comes, I can invest 10 million yuan to help you restore your livelihood. ”

Li Huan sneered: "What did you do? ”

"I have already submitted my report to the court, and it is hard to say whether it will be successful or not. If the court doesn't agree, and you do, I can let you go. If you agree and the court promises you to go back on it, don't blame me for being black. Ouyang said again: "Don't fantasize anymore, maybe you don't know yet, I have already placed a heavy reward, and the ears of a party person are always money." In another half a month, news will spread in Xingqing Mansion, but all the Western Xia people who are willing to migrate to the Great Song Dynasty will receive five yuan per person. When the soldiers came to our army, they disarmed their horses and walked away with their families, and then sent one acre of fertile land. Kill a vice-chancellor, a hundred runs. Kill the Lord and cast it in the future, five hundred. Think about it, in the past few years, the poverty in Western Xia has been very great, how many people can resist this temptation. Now I want you to come forward and gather the rebellious army, but in another three months, I'm afraid you won't have that value. ”

"You're so shameless to use such means." Li Huan suppressed his anger, which is a naked challenge to morality and human nature with money. No matter how united the disciplined forces are, there will always be black sheep. Or that there are always some people who need money, such as family illness, such as marrying a wife and having children, such as honoring their parents. What's more, how many people will not bow their heads in the face of temptation?

"I am also ready to buy 20,000 Iron Harrier troops for 1 million guan, and I am ready to buy 25,000 garrison troops for 1 million guan." Ouyang took a sip of soy milk and said: "Once a person is too rich, the money will be meaningless, and it will be uncomfortable not to spend." ”

"......" Li Huan wiped his cold sweat, not to mention others, it was the first time that he, the royal family, had heard of the business of taking millions of yuan.

"I've sent someone to lobby the Iron Harrier coming this way. You guess it or not. Ouyang grinned: "I'm sorry, you raise the army, I choose the ready-made, to be honest, I do feel a little unhappy in my heart." ”

The iron harrier is to lengthen the cold-forged armor to wrap the war horse, so that the man and horse are one, and the total weight can reach up to 400 kilograms. Its greatest advantage is the impact of the infantry phalanx. Even if the cavalry died, the horses still rushed to the enemy line with their weights, trampling the enemy army. The Iron Harrier of Western Xia, the Tielin Army of Liao, and the Tiefutu of Jin were the three strongest cavalry units at that time.

"I am the envoy of the Song Army, and I want to see your general." There was a cavalry in the march of the procession, and Zhang Liang faced more than 100 iron spears, and he was fearless in his fists on the horse. Ouyang originally wanted to send someone else, but Zhang Liang insisted on asking for help, and he said that others would probably pee when they saw the enemy, and there was no important position, so people might not be willing to pay attention to you. Ouyang thought about it for a long time, and finally agreed. And gave him a life-saving tip.

The main general of the Iron Harrier is called Wei Ming Shouquan, a veteran general who participated in the Western Xia and Song wars during the Zhenghe period. The seniority is old, but the person is not old, about forty. When the rear army heard that there was a Song envoy, he waved his hand and said, "Bring him to see him." ”

Zhang Liang was neither humble nor arrogant, and hugged his fists and said: "I have seen a famous general." ”

Wei Mingshou waved his hand and said, "Don't make this set of empty things, let go of the fart quickly." Lao Tzu still has to hurry. ”

Zhang Lan smiled and said, "The general is going to rendezvous with the Proton Army to take the county?" ”

"What do you mean?"

"Back to the general's words, except for more than 100 people killed in the proton army led by Li Huan, the rest of the people have all surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty."

Wei Mingshou shot the whole case: "Demons and tricks, come to someone, pull it down and cut it." ”

"Slow!" Zhang Liang took out a bag of things: "This is the proton army's talisman, military flag, and a general's small belongings." The general might as well take a look first. ”

Wei Ming Shouquan snatched it up, put it in his hand and unfolded it to see, there was no fake, it was all true. Wei Ming Shouquan was in a cold sweat: "No...... Impossible, how could the Proton Army betray? "He'd rather believe in the annihilation of the army than in the rebellion of the Proton Army.

"Not only the Proton Army, but also the Rili tribe and the Yueli tribe all surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty. I don't have evidence for this for the time being. ”

The generals in the "......" tent began to talk to each other

The Guardian glanced at them, and the tent fell silent. Wei Ming Shouquan said: "Say, what do you mean? ”

"Holy decree: Canonize General Wei Mingshouquan as the general of the Great Song Dynasty, and his son as the captain of the Great Song Dynasty. All officers and officers in the army are promoted to one rank. Zhang Liang put the holy decree on the table and said: "In addition, as long as the generals are willing to return to the Song, no matter which line they are, my Great Song will give the funds, and the total amount is one million guan for the generals to distribute." This is a token of Yangping Money, and it is written that there are one million guan to redeem and take at any time. ”

"Presumptuous! looks down on the general so much, comes to someone, blasts out. ”

"Wait." Zhang Liang said: "The last sentence, my lord asked me to bring you the last sentence, as long as the casualties of the iron kiln do not exceed thirty percent, the agreement is still valid." If it exceeds 30%, the adults will be wiped out. ”

"Haha...... If you hear that, you're going to kill us all. Wei Ming Shouquan sneered: "Just rely on your Song army cavalry, a group of infantry who can only ride horses? ”

“…… Hehe! The generals laughed casually. It's not stupid to be able to get to this position, this chapter column has such a big breath, even if it's discounted, it's a bit real. The equipment of the two thousand proton army will not be worse than theirs, and if you say betrayal, you will betray, and there must be ghosts among them.

One of the generals asked, "Who are you?" ”

"Ouyang!"

"Ouyang?" All the generals are the same line, which may not know who the Great Song Emperor is, but they know Ouyang do. The big boss of the International Jockey Club, the founder of Yangping Zhixian, the founder of the Yangping Chamber of Commerce, and the editor-in-chief of the Royal Newspaper. The fact that this person threw millions of dollars for a woman has long been spread all over the country. They may not believe it when someone else spends a million yuan to buy this army, but this person says one million without any ambiguity. Rich people and beauties are always the talk of everyone after dinner. What's more, it's such a young person, and it's a bit legendary. There are already many people in the folk who are writing commentaries with Ouyang as the version. Ouyang ransom Liang Hongyu is the Song version of the story of the daughter buying horse bones.

Zhang Liang said: "Lord Ou said that he knows the loyalty of the generals. But he asked the last general to tell everyone that he had bought off many *** members of the Western Xia court. He knows every move of the Western Xia army and the names of the generals. ”

Wei Ming Shouquan said angrily: "Nonsense! ”

"If it's nonsense, how can this proton army all surrender?"

"This ......," Wei Mingshou took a step back.

That's it. The general will kill if he wants to. ”

"Someone ...... coming"

A general hurriedly said: "General, the two armies are fighting, don't kill the envoys." ”

Wei Ming Shouquan felt the vague surrender of the generals, these people were not powerful disciples, most of them were promoted by brave and good fighters. A small general can have a few dollars, and a million guan is an amount they can't even think of. As soon as I spoke, I had five children to raise, and my parents were elderly. Usually it's just to fool the accounts and get a few bucks. There are also good friends outside, there are those who are already greedy for money, and there are those who have been demoted before...... What made him a little relieved was that half of the generals were unmoved, and there was a look of courage in their eyes. But most of these were young people who had just entered the ranks of leading soldiers, so they didn't even say a word.

"Grab your stuff and get out!" Wei Mingshou shouted loudly, and two personal soldiers came in.

Zhang Lan clasped his fists and nodded: "General Xie is not killed." "If you don't kill yourself, it means that Wei Mingshou has been shaken, if you are really stupid and loyal, you should cut yourself off and cut off the road to uprising. As Ouyang said, he didn't ask Zhang Column to convince them, he only asked Zhang Column to plant a seed. This fight must be fought, and just playing lip service will not convince people.

After leaving, the chapter column reads on the bag: Take Li Huan for it! Immediately moved. Whether Li Huan rebels or surrenders or dies, Li Huan's value is very great. And if Ouyang handed over Li Huan to the imperial court, it would be a great achievement, and if Li Huan was released privately, not only might he break the proton army, but he might also be questioned. Who else can have the courage to do this, besides Ouyang?
