The black hole of the Mingsha City Gate is like a fierce beast opening its mouth, hideous and terrifying.

At this time, the defeated army of Western Xia did not care about anything, and they swarmed in, noisy and noisy.

Just when the city gate was crowded, suddenly a loud "boom" sounded, and the jack gate fell to the ground violently.

"Ouch!"

"Wow!"

"Forehead mother!"

The gate is a huge whole piece of bluestone, although it is not as heavy as the iron gate, but it is wide and tall, and I don't know how many people were crushed and injured for a while.

At this moment, there are always five or six thousand people entering the city, there are generals and soldiers, and the stone does not know how to crush the geometry, and the outer door hole is full of stuff, all of them are shocked, their faces are sluggish, and they look at the bluestone gate standing in front of them, and their hearts are palpitating, and they are trembling.

In that city, next to the urn, under the city wall, and on the passage into the city, suddenly a few "hula" pierced sounds, and then a few sparks burst brightly, just in the blink of an eye, the raging fire actually rose to the sky.

The fire was fast and fierce, burning next to the five or six thousand Western Xia soldiers who had just entered the city, but were blocked by the stone gates, and these Western Xia soldiers immediately cried wolf.

They tried to hide from the flames, but the fire rose from the walls, the stepping stones, the ground, the hooves of the horses, their shoes and boots, and they did not know what oil-stained objects they had stepped on, and the fire burned directly along the surface, and immediately burned, and there was nowhere to hide, and the more they ran, the bigger the fire burned.

At this time, rows of cold bows and crossbows leaned out of the city wall above, the cold light flickered, and they shot down indiscriminately, and the sound of "whooshing" was like a night owl flying, terrifying and fast, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of the Western Xia soldiers.

Li Yanxian stood on the head of the wall at this moment, and sighed: "Alas, if it weren't for the small number of soldiers in his hands, how could he put in such a few people, as long as he could have five thousand more soldiers, he would definitely be ordered to enter the city in Western Xia, and kill him without leaving a piece of armor, clean and clean!" ”

He patted his thigh, looking annoyed, it was really too good at the moment, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but because there were too few soldiers in his hands, he didn't dare to let too many people in, and he couldn't directly kill the other party.

He had been on the border of the Jingsai Military Division to the north, and met a group of Western Xia men from the south, led by a female general.

This female general is sassy, Li Yanxian is excited, the northwest has always acted rudely, and has never been twisted, especially at the moment, after more than a hundred years of war, it has become more and more direct.

Whether it is in the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty, or on the Western Xia side, or even the residents on both sides of the border, they all go straight to the front, drink wine, eat meat, and rob their mother-in-law, without thinking about it like that, they have many worries, as long as they have hard fists and courage, they will run to do it if they think about it.

Of course, this mother-in-law is not robbing her own domestic side, her own side is married by the Ming media, covered with a red hijab, and the donkey is carrying home, and the robbers are all women from enemy countries.

The heroes of the Great Song Dynasty secretly crossed the border to rob the Western Xia women, and the Western Xia also came to rob the Great Song Dynasty, and the two have intermarried indiscriminately for I don't know how many years, even the Western Xia queen has Han women, and the famous Liang queens are all Han people.

Among them, Empress Daliang controlled the Western Xia Dynasty for more than ten years, eliminated 600,000 Song troops, and implemented the Sinicization policy during the period, but abolished the Han rites and restored the party's Fan Rites.

Moreover, Tubo and the party have long had the custom of robbing marriages, in the northwest, several parties robbed each other, and the bloodlines have long been mixed, even Li Qianshun himself has half of the Han blood, and even if you really have to calculate it carefully, half of it will be more.

Therefore, robbing a party woman to be an aunt is a normal thing for the Western Army or Northwest people, whether it is robbing on the battlefield, or touching the border to go to the pasture or the battlefield to rob, it is not a matter of looking ahead and backward for the men in the Northwest.

Li Yanxian took a fancy to the female general, chased and killed all the way, and finally captured it halfway, and then broke up and destroyed the cavalry, captured some people, and was about to go back, he suddenly thought, can he take this opportunity to go directly to Mingsha City, and take Brother Richard's rear lair?

So he interrogated the female general, and the female general was called Ye Li Mingying, with a very hard mouth, treating death as home, and refusing to say anything, even the names and surnames were confessed by others.

Li Yanxian interrogated the other cavalrymen one by one, and finally found out that there were only a thousand people guarding this Mingsha City at this moment!

He was immediately overjoyed, Mingsha is not a particularly small city, it still has a certain area, and it is not a military city, there are residents and people in it, but there are only a thousand people guarding it, isn't it nothing?

If a thousand people are divided into two shifts to defend the city, then there will only be 500 people left at each moment, and when they are divided into four sides of the city and go to the city gates, there will only be more than 100 people on each side, is it not the same as the empty city?

And even if in wartime, the soldiers do not take off their armor and do not return to the camp, all of them are in the city defense, and the 1,000 people are divided into the upper gates of the four sides of the city, but there are only 250 people on each side, how can this be protected?

Li Yanxian got the news and acted immediately, he knew very well that the soldiers were fast, except for sending a personal soldier back to the rear to send a letter to Zhao Ta, the other soldiers were all brought, and those who did not surrender were all killed except for Ye Li Mingying, and then quickly went straight to Mingsha City.

Brother Richard only left a thousand people in Mingsha, in fact, it was not a mistake, even if there was an omission, it was a wise man's thousand thoughts, and it was difficult to make a mistake, because the Song army on the opposite side had few soldiers, how could it be possible to divide a group of soldiers and horses, and come and go all the way to the rear to sneak attack the city?

What's more, he sent two cavalry on the left side of the army to advance secretly, if there was really a Song army's bad intentions, these two cavalry would definitely encounter it.

How many people can the Song army send? One or two thousand at most, three thousand at the end, will definitely not exceed this number.

The two cavalry he sent had about 2,000 people each, both of which were elite, and they were led by generals with strong martial arts, especially Ye Li Mingying, who took the Jingsai line.

Although Ye Li Mingying is a woman, she is extraordinary, especially immediately with excellent skills, born in Zizaimen, she is the younger sister of Princess Feng Miaoyin, Feng Miaoyin is the personal disciple of Li Huangzhu, the head of Zizaimen, ranking fourth, and Ye Li Mingying is the youngest.

Brother Richard didn't feel that his arrangement was wrong, even if the two teams didn't protect the left side thoroughly, and there was really a sneak attack by the Song army, there was nothing to worry too much about.

Although there are only 1,000 people in the rear to defend the city, if you want to attack hard, you can't go down to the city right away. How many people can dare to attack!

He led the Iron Harrier and Bubazi to run and crush, and the army went directly to the south, rushing to kill and tear apart the main force of the Song army, so the rear can be left alone, as long as the main force of the Song army is broken in front, then everything doesn't matter, and it doesn't pose any threat, which is also the third reason why he didn't leave more troops to guard Mingsha.

However, he ignored the other party's combat strength, thinking that his own elite, but he didn't expect that the opposite side was stronger, Xu Ning and Li Yanxian's two troops were extremely strong, especially the main general's martial arts were higher, and the two cavalry he sent were all defeated and almost annihilated.

As for what he thought that even if someone sneaked in, he would not be able to storm it, but it was actually true, after all, the siege of the city had to have equipment, and fortifications had to be dug, and the cavalry who came would inevitably not be able to carry out it for a while, or they could not afford to attack it.

But the problem is that Li Yanxian never thought of storming Mingsha City at all!

He followed Zhao Ta all the way from the Xihe River into the Xia Realm, and he saw all kinds of tricky strategies, but there were not a few times when he really attacked and killed, especially the broken city, because there were few soldiers, so Zhao Ta almost didn't have to attack, and used the city more!

As for the deception! Li Yanxian has learned!

He had the Western Xia cavalry prisoners in his hands, as well as Yeli Mingying, and it was not difficult to deceive a city guarded by only a thousand people.

Properly planned, quickly rushed to Mingsha City, by then the sky had fallen, just in the evening when it was dark, stepped forward to cheat the door.

Sure enough, there was no suspicion of him in the city, just three or five words, and then put Yeli Mingying in front, and the gate was immediately opened in the city, and Li Yanxian led people to rush in.

Then it took more than an hour to cleanse the Western Xia soldiers in the city, most of them surrendered, a few resisted and killed, and those who fled and hid were searched and arrested, and there were only a thousand people in total, even if a few were missed, it was difficult to destroy the big thing.

Then Li Yanxian began to arrange an ambush, looking for fire oil, painting the walls and floors, and planning how not to be discovered by the other party that Mingsha had been lost, and he went down to Mingsha City in order to copy Brother Richard's back road, and he definitely couldn't let the other party find the flaws!

This is just the opposite of Richard's plan, Richard wants the army to crush forward and win directly, even if the rear is lost, as long as the front wins, it doesn't matter, then turn back a little, and send some soldiers to clear the back.

But Li Yanxian calculated that Brother Richard was defeated and led the remnants of the army back to Mingsha City, so it was just right to lure him into the city, close the door and beat the dogs, catch turtles in the urn, and attack and kill.

The only fly in the ointment is that Li Yanxian didn't dare to let too many people in.

He had less than 2,000 men and horses, some of them had to guard the prisoners, some of them had to guard the other three gates, and some of them had to suppress the city and sit in the city, so that there would not be more than a thousand people in ambush in this southern city.

In fact, there are only seven or eight hundred, so he dares to put in five or six thousand people at most, seven or eight hundred fire attacks and ambushes, and he is quite sure of dealing with five or six thousand, but no more.

As for whether Brother Richard will be among these five or six thousand people, it depends on luck and Brother Richard's life.

If Li Yanxian had 5,000 people in his hands, then he would definitely dare to let in all the Western Xia troops outside the city, but without these people, he could only sigh.

At this time, his eyes were staring at the Western Xia army that was ambushed below, and at this moment, the fire was burning, and it was bright, and he could see it clearly, but the more he looked at it, the more disappointed he became, and he didn't see Brother Richard's figure.

Although he doesn't know Brother Richard, what is Brother Richard's identity? is not only the commander of this Western Xia army, but also the king of Jin in Western Xia, all of whom are in charge of the army, the head of the town, no matter how brave they wear, armor and war horses, they must be different and very easy to identify.

If Brother Richard was among the five or six thousand people who entered the city, he would naturally recognize it at a glance, but unfortunately he didn't.

There were cavalry and infantry among the people who entered the city, but in fact, the infantry army was originally also a cavalry army, but in front of the city gate, or after entering the city, they dismounted directly.

It's nothing else, a whole day and a lot of the night back and forth, the waist and legs really can't stand it, and if you don't come down, I'm afraid it will be scrapped and can't be used.

This is no more galloping than a normal march, even the messengers who are in a hurry for eight hundred miles are not so tired.

This is a defeat and escape, a rout and an escape, not only physical pressure, but also mental pressure, which can be said to be physically and mentally exhausted, and a long time to collapse.

didn't find Brother Richard, Li Yanxian sighed, and continued to command the soldiers around him to shoot arrows, none of these people who entered the city could stay, even if they wanted to surrender, they didn't accept it, because almost all of them had flame burns on their bodies at this moment.

Burns are white wounds, which are more difficult to treat than red wounds caused by swords, and extensive burns are not curable in this era.

Li Yanxian gritted his teeth and said: "Shoot them all, leave no mouths alive, and then go to the city to meet the enemy!" ”

The soldier shouted "Order", and the arrows and crossbows in their hands began to shoot at an accelerated pace......

Although Richard did not enter the city at the moment, he was not outside the city, but was in the doorway of the south gate.

He had entered the city gate surrounded by the generals behind him, and when he had just walked less than half the distance inside, he heard a loud "boom", and the boulder in front of him fell.

This stone gate is wide, and many soldiers and horses were killed at once, and the flesh and blood were splashed all around, and all the outside were contaminated, and the tragic situation could not bear to look at directly.

Brother Richard immediately broke out in a cold sweat, he was very close to the thousand-pound stone gate, if he was about to take a breath or two, he would definitely be smashed underneath, and he would die with a whimper.

At that time, what kind of king wants to dominate the industry, the country and the society will be just a good dream.

Brother Richard was sweating and his armor was wet, Zhou's body trembled slightly, and everyone around him was so frightened that they couldn't speak, secretly screaming that it was dangerous to pick up a life and come back.

Brother Richard took a deep breath, grabbed the reins with one hand, and looked ahead, there were some gaps around the huge bluestone, and he could vaguely see that the opposite side was red and bright, and there was a dazzling light through, which was clearly firelight.

Then the sound of archery and crossbow strikes came, and the screams were incessant.

Richard looked sad and shouted violently: "Mingsha City is lost!" ”

As he spoke, he opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood, and lay motionless on the horse's neck.

He is the god of the Western Xia army, half of his life has experienced countless battles, many victories and defeats, but not to mention victory or defeat, where has he encountered this kind of grievance, the iron harrier was destroyed, the foot was defeated, the army was shaken, and he was chased by the enemy for hundreds of miles, and as a result, the base camp in the rear was ended, and he was ambushed, and he was calculated by the enemy every step of the way, and he was pressed to fight.

Even if Brother Richard has martial arts, how can he withstand such a blow at this moment, and his expression is extremely depressed for a while.

"King Jin?"

"Dashuai!"

"Lord Wang!"

The generals around him came back to their senses and came forward to call out.

I just saw that Brother Richard was as angry as a gossamer, his face was like white paper, and he raised a hand slightly: "Go, retreat, leave Mingsha......"

Just before he finished speaking, there was a deafening shouting and killing sound in the distance outside, from far and near, I don't know how many soldiers and horses are coming here.

The Western Xia soldiers who stayed outside were already a little chaotic, and the school soldiers rushed over to report that a large number of Song troops had chased them.

At this time, Brother Richard had already figured out why the Song army had been chasing after him, and he had already decided that Mingsha City would be taken, and he planned to wipe them all out here.

"Go, go, remove the gorge pass!" Richard screamed on his horse, and then spat out a mouthful of blood......
