Chapter 487: Soldiers are coming to the city

After crossing the Yellow River, they arrived at the hinterland of Western Xia, and along the way, the Western Xia cavalry tried many times, but under the bravery of the heroic battalion and the calculation of the military division, the counterattack of Western Xia was in vain!

"Your Majesty, the Song army is already less than thirty miles away from Xingqing Mansion!" A herald hurriedly came to report, which shocked the Xixia Palace!

The ministers of Western Xia couldn't help but panic, Lingzhou was more than 100 miles away from Xingqing Mansion, and the Song army attacked 30 miles away from Xingqing Mansion in two days, which was enough to show the Song army's determination to destroy Western Xia.

"The Song State is too deceitful, and it offends my Great Xia for no reason, and the ministers implore you to lead the Iron Harrier and the Song army to fight to the death! To protect the Xingqing Mansion! Li Liangfu, the general of Western Xia, said angrily.

Li Liangfu is a famous general in Western Xia and a member of the royal family, and now that the Song army is about to enter the city, Li Liangfu naturally can't bear it and wants to fight with the Song army!

"No! The Song army has an army of 100,000 troops, and there is a thunderstorm to help, our army is afraid that this battle will be more auspicious and less, it is better to wait for work, use the city wall of Xingqing Mansion, and beat the Song army with ease and labor! In this way, the odds of success will be greatly increased. A civil servant suggested.

The Western Xia army was not without fighting with the Song army, and the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang carried 300,000 troops to fight in the field with the Song army, but under the attack of the Song army's Tiefutu and Shocking Thunder, they were defeated and retreated! ”

The 100,000 army led by the evil doctor Fan Zheng in this battle is the elite of the Song army, and there are a large number of Iron Floating Tu and Heaven-shaking Thunder.

"Could it be that we just sit back and watch the Song army's iron cavalry wreak havoc in my Western Xia, and we can only be shrunken turtles within the city walls." Li Liangfu roared angrily.

"Therefore, Your Majesty sent General Li out of the city to fight, in order to further consume the Song army's earth-shattering thunder." Yelu Nanxian's heart moved.

………………

Yelu Nanxian nodded, the evil doctor Fan Zheng is not Zhao Kuo who talks on paper, his own evil recipe is invincible has been verified countless times, and this person is a healer, who values life the most, and it is impossible to joke with the lives of 100,000 troops.

The moats of Xingqing Mansion all come from the main canals of the Yellow River, and when Fan Zheng ordered the main stream of the Yellow River to be cut off, the water level of the moat suddenly dropped sharply.

In the Western Xia Palace, the news of the Song army's arrival in the city had already spread, casting a shadow on the former lively palace.

They have already attacked the city of Xingqing Mansion, and the 100,000-strong army has won successive battles, and they have not lost their troops, so it is naturally impossible to retreat easily.

However, to Li Qianshun's surprise, after Fan Zheng cut off the main canal of the Yellow River, there was no next move, and even the siege of the city was only a feint for a while, so that the Song army was covered with earth and filled in a part of the moat, and there was no action!

"The others will take precautions to prevent Western Xia from sneaking out of the city. Prepare to attack Xingqing Mansion! Fan Zheng ordered the generals.

"The last general will live up to His Majesty's expectations, and ask His Majesty to punish the crime!"

However, in fact, it surprised him, Fan Zheng did not take any action at all except for cutting off the main canal of the Yellow River and filling the negative soil, and only besieged Xingqing Mansion without attacking.

Li Qianshun continued to analyze: "The weapons and tactics used in today's wars have been verified by the past dynasties, and it is impossible to have the weapons and tactics of a city in a battle, only the earth-shaking thunder is a new thing, and the evil doctor Fan Zheng is the creator of the earth-shaking thunder, and he may know the unknowable use of it. ”

"Boom!"

Looking at the city wall that is comparable to Kaifeng City, all the Song soldiers couldn't help but gasp, such a strong city may be extremely difficult to attack, if you are not careful, the Song army will repeat the mistakes of the Tang army in Longshou Pass.

The seed master said loudly: "Qi Qi Fan Shuai, I am afraid that the remaining earth-shaking thunder in our army is less than two or three out of ten, I am afraid it will be difficult to follow the battle of Lingzhou and conquer Xingqing Mansion!" ”

Other generals also listened attentively, after all, surrender is just a one-sentence thing, it doesn't matter if it fails, if it succeeds, then the Song army will make a lot of money.

He originally thought that it was Fan Zheng's evil recipe to bombard indiscriminately with earth-shattering thunder, but he didn't expect that Fan Zheng still didn't use the evil recipe that came down from the first battle.

In the Song army, the Song army once again used a large number of earth-shaking thunders, and the Western Xia cavalry suffered heavy losses, and Li Liangfu had to lead the remnants of the army to retreat.

"Besides, Xingqing Mansion is about to break the city, why should Fan bother to persuade him to surrender!" Fan Zheng said surprisingly again.

"Fight down!"

Chong Pu and the others shook their heads, Li Qianshun is a generation of heroes, and there is the help of the Liao State, although the city of Lingzhou is broken, Li Qianshun was defeated not long ago, the overall strength of the Western Xia has not been damaged, and according to the intelligence, the Western Xia has received the assistance of the Liao State, with a large number of earth-shaking thunder! The strongest combat power in Western Xia is still in Xingqing Mansion, and it is impossible for Li Qianshun to surrender.

On the city wall, Li Liangfu, who was covered in blood, knelt in front of Li Qianshun in shame and said.

When Fan Zheng heard this, he waved his hand and said, "It's okay, the official said it!" As long as the Song army attacks under the Xingqing Mansion, it can be defeated in one battle! ”

At that moment, with a wave of his hand, Yang Bangyi of the rear army led the cavalry forward and attacked the Xia army with a large number of gunpowder weapons!

"Evil Doctor Fan Zheng, what does this mean! Do you have to emulate the battle of that year, or attack Xingqing Mansion with water! ”

"Surrender?" Fan Zheng raised his eyebrows.

……………………

The other generals are also gearing up to deal with the upcoming battle of Xingqingfu.

Looking at the sharply falling moat water, Li Qianshun frowned.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, General Li is brave and good at fighting, and he will definitely be able to repel the Song army! To solve the plight of Xingqing Mansion! Yelu Nanxian complimented.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Li Liangfu bowed to Li Qianshun and said: "Your Majesty, the evil doctor Fan Zheng dares to say that civil officials don't love money, and military generals don't hesitate to die, is it not possible for my Xixia man to be afraid of death?" The minister is willing to lead the troops to the battle, but he is not defeated by the Song army, and would rather be shrouded in horse leather! ”

So far, they can only believe in Fan Zheng, and believe that Fan Zheng can realize his bold words and lead them to destroy Western Xia!

……………………

According to the tradition of the Song people, the army has come to the city, the Western Xia has reached the end of the road, the people in the city are panicked, if the Song army surrenders at this moment, wouldn't it be effortless to destroy the Western Xia.

Beating the water dogs, the Song army pursued all the way, until the pursuit reached the city of Xingqing Mansion, Li Liangfu retreated to Xingqing Mansion in embarrassment with the help of the defenders of the city wall.

Fan Zheng snorted coldly: "Yongwu, that's because the Western Xia weapons were superior before, and now the Cold Forging Armor Great Song also has it, the Heaven-shaking Thunder Great Song is more sophisticated, and the Great Song Dynasty's national strength is more than ten times that of the Western Xia, how can the courage of the horseman resist the power of gunpowder weapons." ”

"What kind of medicine is the evil doctor Fan Zheng selling in the gourd?"

In terms of equipment, firearms, and morale, the two armies of Song and Xia were comparable, but the Song army did not pay attention to martial virtues, and even directly used earth-shaking thunder to cause them huge damage.

"Pass the order to cut off the water source of the moat in Xingqing Mansion, let its water level drop, and at the same time use the carriage to cover the soil and fill it!" Fan Zheng ordered.

"There is such an elite in Western Xia!" In the Song army, Fan Zheng looked at the Xixia Iron Harrier who was not afraid of death, and couldn't help but look pale.

………………

At the same time, the two cavalry were fighting fiercely, the Iron Harrier led by Li Liangfu and the Iron Floating Tu led by Chong Pu collided fiercely, and the impact of the most powerful heavy cavalry in the world was no less powerful than the thunder.

Li Qianshun shook his head and said: "It's okay, although you were defeated, you also played out the morale of my Western Xia, and even consumed a lot of earth-shaking thunder of the Song army!" Now that the Song Army's earth-shattering thunder is probably not much left, I want to see how the evil doctor Fan Zheng defeated my Xingqing Mansion. ”

"The Great Song Dynasty is not martial!"

Li Qianshun thought about it, the evil formula in the mouth of the evil doctor Fan Zheng was most likely related to gunpowder weapons, whether Li Qianshun gave up Lingzhou or let Li Liangfu take the initiative to attack, it was to consume the gunpowder weapons of the Song army as much as possible.

"The last general obeys!"

They naturally knew that Xixia was now at a critical juncture of life and death, and if they were not careful, they would be in danger of destroying the country, so they naturally did not dare to be careless.

Seed Master Dao couldn't help but raise his head and look at Fan Zheng incredulously.

Outside Xingqing Mansion, the sound of thunder was endless.

A group of Song generals can't help but feel cold in their necks, not to mention the feud between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, the Great Song Dynasty is now attacking the city of Xingqingfu, and the enmity between the two countries is as deep as the sea.

The planter bowed and saluted.

Yelu Nanxian looked at Li Qianshun and asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty, why did you allow General Li to take the initiative to fight when he knew that General Li would win fewer and lose more here!" ”

Seed Master Dao didn't understand that there was any way in the world to make a strong city fall in a battle, but it didn't prevent him from having full confidence in Fan Zheng.

"Obey orders!"

Li Qianshun nodded and said, "Yes, the more battles the Western Xia and the Song army have, the less gunpowder and weapons the Song army will consume, and the greater the chance of protecting Xingqing Mansion!"

"Besides, the 100,000 horses of the Great Song Dynasty are all under the city of Xingqing Mansion, once the embankment breaks, even they can't run."

"What, Xingqing Mansion is about to break the city!"

Thinking about how majestic the Western Xia was, he defeated the Song State again and again, and won the Song State to cede land and pay compensation, and even the Liao State respected the Western Xia for three points.

"Boom! Rumble! ”

The other generals also nodded approvingly.

Li Qianshun was shocked, and looked at the Song army under the city in disbelief!

"That's not right! There must be a conspiracy in this! Li Qianshun was terrified, and at this moment he remembered that something was wrong.

"Obey your orders!"

Seeing Li Liangfu's resolute eyes, Li Qianshun couldn't help but be greatly moved.

A group of Western Xia officials were silent, although this battle was humiliating, but they understood that now the Song army was strong and strong, and the Western Xia was weak, and it was the safest way to defeat the Song army.

Yelu Nanxian admired that Li Qianshun at this moment was completely a generation of heroes, and she believed that as long as Xixia survived this catastrophe, Li Qianshun would definitely lead Xixia to revival.

However, Fan Zheng did not send people to contact Xingqing Mansion at all, neither attacking nor surrendering, which was simply contrary to common sense.

The ministers of Western Xia shook their heads and said. The Yellow River next to Xingqing Mansion is not an above-ground river, and the water flow is rapid, so it is impossible to use the method of attacking Xingqing Mansion with water.

"Why didn't Fan Shuai recruit Xingqing Mansion!" Seed Master Dao couldn't help but propose to Fan Zheng.

At that moment, Li Qianshun led the troops and led the elite of Western Xia to attack the Song army!

At the same time, the Song army finally arrived at the city of Xingqingfu,

Now it has only been more than ten years, and the dignified Western Xia has fallen to the point of imminent annihilation, and the Song army has already reached Xingqing Mansion, which makes the once invincible Western Xia royal family embarrassed.

Li Qianshun was a little relieved in his heart, but he knew that the evil doctor Fan Zheng would not do useless things, so he could only think that Fan Zheng was doing a precaution in order to avoid the defeat of Lingzhou!

"Evil Doctor Fan Zheng is acting strangely, and he must not miss any action, so as not to be taken advantage of by him!" Li Qianshun arranged.

Li Qianshun shook his head and said: "The queen should not be too optimistic, the 100,000 army of the evil doctor Fan Zheng has not been damaged, and he himself has carried the coffin to the battle, and the morale of the Song army has greatly increased. ”

"Do you think Li Qianshun will surrender?" Fan Zheng asked rhetorically.

"The Song army didn't even surrender!"

"Besides, who is willing to persuade him to surrender?" Fan Zheng looked around at the Song generals and asked.

Not only Li Qianshun, but even Song Junzhong was puzzled by Fan Zheng's bewildering actions!

Li Liangfu was slightly stunned, although he didn't understand what Li Qianshun meant, but as long as he could go out of the city to fight, it would be enough for him.

Li Qianshun was like an ant in a hot pot, in his opinion, Fan Zhengbing was in a hurry to make a contribution when he came to the city, and immediately launched an attack on Xingqing Mansion.

"Qi Yu Fan Shuai, the main general of Western Xia is the famous general Li Liangfu, this person is quite famous for bravery!" The seed master Dao stepped forward to explain to Fan Zheng the origin of Li Liangfu, the main general of Western Xia.

……………………

He nodded and said, "Okay, I will allow you to leave the city to attack, but I am not not not going to let you die in battle, but I want you to consume the Song army's earth-shattering thunder as much as possible!" If nothing can be done, immediately return to the city and retreat. ”

Fan Zheng's move to cut off the moat made them very puzzled, and they didn't know if Fan Zheng wanted to flood Xingqing Mansion with water in order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past!

"Your Majesty, it is simply wishful thinking to attack Xingqing Mansion by water, the water source of Xingqing Mansion comes from the Yellow River, the Yellow River is rushing, and it is impossible to block the river in a short period of time, let alone break the Yellow River."

Li Qianshun said with a solemn look in his eyes: "I think about it, the evil doctor Fan Zheng dares to claim that he went down to Xingqing Mansion in a battle, it is definitely not empty mouth and white teeth, there must be an evil recipe that we don't know?" Otherwise, he would not have dared to let the 100,000 army of the Great Song Dynasty take such a risk. ”

Along the way, the cultivator Dao had already seen the bravery of the heroic battalion recruited by Fan Zheng, coupled with the IOU of the evil party not long ago, and the determination to carry the coffin to the expedition, he was a little more convinced of Fan Zheng's evil party at the moment.

A group of Western Xia ministers surrendered their hands one after another.

Li Liangfu gritted his teeth with hatred.

The Song generals couldn't help but look at Fan Zheng dumbfounded, they had besieged Xingqing Mansion for several days, except for cutting off the main canal of the Yellow River, they filled in the trench and did not take any action, so they couldn't see the meaning of Xingqing Mansion to be broken.

"Could it be that Fan Shuai has an internal response in Xingqing Mansion! The inside and outside will open the door of Xingqing Mansion! Seed Master Dao was shocked in his heart and thought of the only possibility!

Fan Zheng didn't explain, but smiled confidently: "It's okay, we'll see tomorrow!" ”
