In the next few days, the Western Xia army continued to call for battle, but the Qi army only occasionally went out to fight for a while, and more often than not, the artillery retreated from the enemy.

The Western Xia army also became agitated, on the one hand, the enemy should not fight, and on the other hand, more and more soldiers on their side fell ill.

The Western Xia generals were very puzzled, the soldiers under their command were all strong of all ethnic groups, how could they get sick in large numbers.

The plague Xixia people are no strangers, this thing is the Dark Lord, and the place where it passes is full of bones, and it is a more terrifying existence than war.

The Tangut people avoided the plague, and although they had speculations in their hearts, they didn't even dare to mention it.

Li Heda was anxious when he saw it, and if he dragged it on like this, his soldiers would also be infected with the plague.

"I'm going to do it tonight!"

Li Heda made up his mind in his heart.

That night, Li Heda personally guarded the city, and he lit three bonfires in the city, which was the signal agreed between him and Lu Zhishen.

Qi State Camp.

With Li Heda as the internal response, the defense on the city wall was useless, and the city gate was easily opened.

Lu Zhishen nodded, he had already ordered that after the army entered the city, it would fight along the outer city, and would not go to the inner city first.

The Western Xia army in the city quickly reacted, and after knowing that the enemy had broken the city, they all rushed to the city wall.

The crowd who had already rubbed their palms shouted in unison.

"Wait for the army to enter the city and start shelling the inner city!"

As the sound of artillery broke the silence of the night, the Qi army began to attack the city.

"Master rest assured!"

Liu Fa was the first to lead his troops and rushed directly into the city.

Liu Fa immediately ordered.

Deng Yuanjue frowned and said, the attack went far better than he imagined.

"Boom, boom!"

"Get ready to do it!"

"Don't worry about it so much, capture the city walls and kill the enemy slowly according to the plan!"

This is Lu Zhishen's distrust of Li Heda, maybe the city is a trap.

Hu Cheng opened his mouth and said that the task of their artillery was to smash the inner city to smithereens and crush the enemy's ambush.

"Kill!"

"Master Lu, the artillery is ready!"

"It's really defenseless!"

Lu Zhishen looked at everyone and said.

In the dark night, the army of Qi quietly left the camp, and the army of the divided road headed towards Hongzhou.

Hu Cheng looked at Lu Zhishen and said, this period of weakness has made the Western Xia people relax their vigilance, and there are many fewer scouts outside the city at night, which allows their artillery to be easily pushed to the front of the formation.

"Boom, boom!"

Bursts of artillery rang out blocked the pace of the Western Xia army.

"What about King Jin? Why haven't you come yet? ”

At this time, the Western Xia generals were like ants on a hot pot, looking around for the traces of Brother Richard.

"King Jin is not in the Chinese army"

One man ran to say.

"What? The enemy has come in, why is he not there? ”

"Leave it alone, let's kill the enemy!"

……

Everyone talked nonsense, and soon organized a large army and began to charge and kill.

In the dark.

Richard had already arrived outside the city with the Iron Harrier.

"As expected, Li Heda is a traitor!"

Brother Richard looked coldly at the war-torn Hongzhou City, and the enemy was already fighting with the army in the city at this moment.

"Iron Harrier, kill with me!"

Richard drew the sword at his waist, he was waiting for this moment, the advantage of the Iron Harrier was to rush through the enemy's weakness with swift speed and strong defense.

But the army of Qi is well-trained, and the army is tightly organized, not only with horses, strong bows and crossbows, but also with artillery, and the iron harriers can't attack at all.

So Brother Richard thought of using Li Heda, a traitor, to lead the enemy to attack the city, and when the enemy was halfway through, he would lead his troops to kill from the rear.

The Iron Harrier was like a black arrow from the oblique stab, and the target was the Qi army that had not yet entered the city.

The charge of 10,000 iron harriers was so loud that the ground even shook, and the momentum of the fighting army in the city was even suppressed.

"Ignition!"

Lu Zhishen roared, countless fires outside the city were lit, and the entire night was illuminated, and the charging iron harriers were unobstructed.

"I knew you had a conspiracy!"

Lu Zhishen sneered and looked at the iron harrier who rushed over, for the sake of safety, he personally led the troops to delay, just let the enemy sneak attack, but he didn't expect to be really bumped into.

"It's just armored cavalry, don't think it's only you, kill with me!"

Lu Zhishen gave an order, and rushed up with the cavalry, his team was also armored cavalry, and their iron armor was no worse than that of the Western Xia.

Brother Richard was squinted by the sudden firelight, and when he saw Lu Zhishen leading his troops to kill, he also realized that his plan had failed again, but now he had to send an arrow.

"Whirlwind cannon, fight!"

In order to break the formation, Brother Richard directly asked Po Xijun to step forward.

The whirlwind cannon on the back of the war horse fired stone bullets, and a row of stone bullets only slightly blocked the charging Qi army.

"Kill!"

Lu Zhishen roared, he had already rushed in front of the enemy, and with a wave of the water mill Zen staff in his hand, he knocked the enemy in front of him away.

The two armies scuffled together, the sound of swords hitting the iron armor continued, and sparks were scattered.

"Lu Zhishen!"

Brother Richard held a sword and killed Lu Zhishen.

Lu Zhishen blocked the sword with a wave of the water mill Zen staff in his hand.

"Hmph, don't you think that you can deceive the Sprinkle family with this little skill of carving insects?"

Lu Zhishen looked at Brother Richard with contempt.

"Enough to kill you!"

Brother Richard pulled out a sword from his waist with his other hand and stabbed at Lu Zhishen again.

"Twin swords?"

Lu Zhishen was a little surprised.

However, even with the use of dual swords, Brother Richard is still not Lu Zhishen's opponent.

It only took a few moves to make Richard retreat again and again.

However, Brother Richard was entangled with Lu Zhishen, and he couldn't let Lu Zhishen take a break to command the battle.

"There's a plague in your army!"

Lu Zhishen looked at Brother Richard and said.

"Hmph, aren't you the same, no matter who wins this battle, they will die in the end! It's not bad to have you with you for the funeral! ”

Brother Richard laughed maniacally, his plague tactics were successful, they were all infected with the plague downstream, and the army of Qi would only get worse upstream.

"Haha, all together? It's a bit bold. But why do you think that there is a plague in our army? ”

"You threw a lot of war horse carcasses in the valley, it's a good idea, but in such a hot weather, the smell can't be covered at all, you think I didn't find it?"

Lu Zhishen laughed.

"So what? I send people to throw it every day, can you hide! ”

Brother Richard did not panic when he saw that the plan had already been discovered, and he even threw the dead war horse upstream.

"You may be the same as the Sprinkler family, you don't know what hygiene is! Let me tell you, not a single one in our army is sick, even the war horses are fine! ”

Lu Zhishen continued, he is actually an informal person, but Sun Lei loves cleanliness very much, which leads to the entire Qi country loving cleanliness, and the same is true for the army, and there are even health regulations in the army.

"Impossible! No way! ”

Richard yelled.
