Chapter 927: Bombardment of Dingzhou City

Transporting grain and grass into Western Xia, those who have the courage and ability cannot win it.

He won't go in person, and neither can Zhi Jimin, he is in charge of the entire Western Army, and he can't leave casually. However, Lu Zheng is holding the post of a general, but in fact, there are only 100,000 western troops in his hands under his jurisdiction, and it is really good to leave this matter to him.

Lu Zheng, who was named by name, originally didn't want to go, but as soon as he heard that he could understand the reality of Western Xia, it was also good, and after thinking about it, he nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll go."

Seeing that Lu Zheng agreed, Chen Zhizhong was very happy, and added: "Remember, this time the food delivery is confidential, and you must not let others know about it, otherwise I am afraid that too many people will not understand."

......

Long Yin's money is sufficient, and Meng Youde, as the person in charge, is laid out everywhere.

Zhao Song Xijun also has his eyeliner here, concentrating grain and grass, and sending it to Western Xia is a big project, and it is impossible to hide it from everyone.

The first time he learned the news, Meng Youde was very angry, how can you say that Western Xia is also the enemy of Zhao and Song, you can't clean them up, the Dragon Army took the initiative to attack, but you want to help the enemy, what are you in your mind, what do you think?

Angry, Meng Youde sent the news to Su Shi's hands. After seeing this news, Su Shi only sneered twice.

"That's it, let them go, since we want to fund the enemy, then we don't have so many worries about Zhao Song next."

Su Shi really didn't take this matter seriously.

In his eyes, Western Xia was destroyed, Mo said that Zhao Song wanted to send grain and grass, even if he sent equipment, he was not afraid of even directly sending troops to reinforce him.

The power of the dragon bullet and the dragon thunder is so great that no enemy can resist it.

This time to march into Western Xia, Su Shi was fully prepared, and all the dragon cannons and dragon bullets that had just been produced in the rear were pulled over, in order to achieve the effect of destroying the enemy with one blow.

What's wrong with Western Xia, they dare to fight at most, but in the face of dragon bullets and dragon thunder, how long can they resist?

What about food, grass, equipment, or even reinforcements? In the face of absolute strength, this is just a vulnerable existence.

As for Zhao Song's willingness to send it, then send it, in this way, it gives Su Shi a better chance.

Propaganda warfare, this is one of the most important means for Su Shi to deal with Zhao Song next.

Zhao Song is no different, this is the land of Han people, all the people here are Han people, and it is also the group of people that Su Shi wants to take them to the top of the world.

For them, naturally, they can't be like dealing with other alien races, killing if they don't accept it, and robbing if they don't accept it. For them, whether they can win over or mainly to win over, especially the people at the bottom, think about it, how innocent are they?

There are also those soldiers who sold their lives, they are also Han people, they just want to protect their families and defend the country, what's wrong?

Su Shi can hold a butcher's knife high and do it to those magnates and gentry who exploit and oppress the Han people, but for the people at the bottom, he will not do this, otherwise it will go against his original intention, which is not the result he wants to see.

It's just a pity that most of the time the people are fooled, and they will know what the people above want them to know, and they can't make the right judgment when they can't know the details of specific things.

Even Su Shi can think that in the current land of Zhao and Song, I am afraid that he has already demonized himself, and I don't know how many Han people who don't know the situation are scolding themselves?

And if you want to change this practice, it's very simple, and that is to let them know the truth.

Only when a person knows what is really happening can they make a more correct understanding and judgment.

Propaganda warfare and public opinion warfare are naturally the time to play an absolute role at this time.

"Come on, invite Chief Zhang Ao." Su Shi did it when he thought of it, and said to Lou Yang who was following him.

......

Dingzhou Mansion.

allow

Desu arrived here with 200,000 elite Mongolian troops.

Then there is a non-stop preparation of various weapons to defend the city. Like some boulders, wooden sleepers, golden soup, arrows, etc., were continuously transported towards the castle tower.

The Poxi Army, also known as the Western Xia Flying Artillery Army, also began to assemble catapults one by one and put them in the city, as long as the Dragon Army dared to attack, they would teach them how to be human beings and let them know how powerful they were.

After a full five days, the large army of the dragon army appeared under the city of Dingzhou, and at this time, a lot of various materials for defending the city on the city tower were also prepared, and they were placed there, piled up like a hill.

From this point of view, the obedience rate and execution ability of the Western Xia army are very strong.

With such adequate preparations, if you are fighting a war like before, I am afraid that the people who come will really not be able to take advantage of it.

Ren Desu stood on top of the tower of Dingzhou City, squinting at the dragon army from afar to spread out the formation there, with a sneer on his face.

This time, Ren Desu did not plan to go out of the city to fight with the Dragon Army, in his opinion, the field combat ability of the Dragon Army is not weaker than their Western Xia, so rushing out, the troops are not as good as others, they will not take any advantage. literature

Then he directly chose to defend the city, in his eyes, even if he gave the dragon army time to unfold, so what?

The dragon army will eventually attack the city, at that time, it is good to hit the other party hard, as long as it can hold Dingzhou City and not let the dragon army take a step forward, after a long time, the other party's supply is not timely, and it can only choose to retreat.

At that time, he was leading his troops out of the city to cover up, and he may not have a chance to win.

What about the Dragon Army? Wasn't this how the original million Liao army was defeated? It's not a big deal.

Ren Desu imagined the war very beautifully, and he also wanted to see how the dragon army would break the situation in the face of this situation.

Five miles outside Dingzhou City, the artillery was deploying at this time, and the dragon cannons that were being dragged all the way were looking for the best advantageous position, and boxes of dragon shells were also carried out by the artillerymen.

Behind the artillerymen were 300,000 peasant soldiers of different races, and they were gearing up one by one.

They have already received the order, after the dragon cannon bombarded the gate of Dingzhou City, they can kill it, at that time, the good things in the city are at their disposal, and they will leave two achievements after the war.

That is, they can make meritorious contributions and get wealth, which makes the soldiers of different races excited one by one, and their eyes become hungry and thirsty when they look at Dingzhou City.

It's like a beautiful woman standing not far away without any clothes, letting them pick it, who can not be excited.

The dragon cannon is still in the process of installation and commissioning, and after running such a long way, the muzzle of the cannon is dusty, and it also needs to be wiped clean, and this takes a lot of time.

The most abundant thing for the dragon army now is time, they are the attacking side, and it will be up to them to decide when to start the big war.

"Tell Long Xingyun, don't be in a hurry, we won't attack today, when they're ready, we're attacking." Su Shi didn't put too much pressure on the artillery, in his opinion, it was not good to be unprepared for such a big battle.

"Your Majesty, Commander Long just sent someone over to report, saying that all preparations will be made tonight, and the city can be attacked early tomorrow morning, and the time of the army will not be delayed." Lou Yang opened his mouth and said with a smile.

"Oh, it seems that Long Xingyun is doing a good job as a military commander." Su Shi also laughed out loud when he heard this.

When Long Xingyun was appointed as the commander of the artillery regiment before, Su Shi told him to train qualified artillery talents while fighting as much as possible. When the number of people in his hands reaches a brigade, he can be a brigade commander; When he reaches a division, he can be a division commander.

Long Xingyun lived up to his trust and has now become the commander of the army, but he still seems to be not satisfied, and is preparing to keep up with the position of commander of the group army.

The people under him have such ambitions, Su Shi will not suppress them, on the contrary, he will encourage them and give them whatever they want. Facts have proven that the importance of artillery is far more powerful than that of any army, and even if this is the case, of course, Han Xin ordered troops, and the more the merrier.

On the first day that the dragon army came to Dingzhou City, they did not choose to attack the city, but made various preparations.

The Western Xia army didn't have binoculars, they couldn't see the specific things happening five miles away, they only knew that the dragon army was making preparations. But Ren Desu didn't care about all this. In the past, this kind of big war, which involved hundreds of thousands of people, was normal for ten and a half days to prepare.

It's only the first day, and it's normal that there is no fighting. After looking at the castle tower for a while, he turned around and went down the castle tower, and then returned to his own mansion in the city to rest.

This sleep was very sweet, and two girls warmed his bed at night, and he tossed until midnight before he fell asleep. Early the next morning, the sky was just dark, and Ren Desu, who was still snoring with a woman in his arms, was suddenly awakened by a loud rumbling sound.

The noise was so loud that even the bed vibrate, and Ren Desu jumped out of bed and shouted loudly.

The soldiers outside the door were also in a panic at this time. The explosion was so exciting and dense that many artillery pieces hit the city directly. Unbeknownst to them, these dragon cannons were being guided by drones and blasting towards the city.

Many of these shells landed on the Western Xia catapults, blowing up the assembled carts there.

And the place where the catapult was placed was not too far from the courtyard where Ren Desu lived.

The earth shook, like the earth dragon turned over, many people in the city have been frightened to hide under their beds and dare not come out, the military camp in the city has become a hard-hit area, a dragon bullet fell, the Western Xia soldiers who were still sleeping there were killed and injured, most of the people who ran out were just wearing a piece of clothing, not even a weapon.
