Chapter 247: The Battle of Dashun City

Dashun City and Wolf Prefecture have started wars, Dashun City is half a month early, but the news that has reached the court is different, all kinds of transactions in Wolf Prefecture are still going on, local residents should farm the land, and those who should marry their relatives and daughters are still marrying their daughters, and all the civil and military ministers still think that the people of Western Xia have not come, and the war has not yet begun.

"The child thinks that the information will not be wrong, it is the imperial uncle who has reopened a battlefield, and the most likely place is the prairie of Wolf State, and all the people do not know from beginning to end, and the imperial uncle does not plan to say, it is estimated that the news will change tomorrow", Zhao Xuan opened his mouth to Song Yingzong, and sure enough, the news that came the next day was that all the eighteen entrances to Wolf Prefecture were closed, and a notice was posted, the main content was,

"Due to the invasion of the Tangut people in Wolf State, all seventeen cities are closed, and the opening date is not known for the time being, please inform each other."

And the news from Dashun City is,

"No one pays attention to the entire Dashun City, no matter how he calls the battle in Xixia, he just can't hold on, and he doesn't see the shadow of the handsome Gongsun Shu,

"The child finally understood why Marshal Gongsun sneaked into Dashun City in a low-key manner, and brought half a year's grain and grass, because he wanted to confuse the Western Xia people, and wait until the day when the other party underestimated the enemy, that is, when Marshal Gongsun attacked the enemy with all his might, a good generalissimo, let me admire", as soon as Zhao Xuan's words landed, Song Yingzong opened his mouth,

"He's just under three years older than you, and now you know why it's so hard to ask him out of the mountains?". The barracks of Dashun City, Gongsun Shu sat in the big tent, listening to the battle report in front at any time, he only sent the original 100,000 garrisons to defend the city normally, and the 500,000 reinforcements he brought were just recuperating, and the 100,000 garrisons were indispensable to secretly shout injustice, but Gongsun Shu also pretended to be deaf and dumb like the Xixia people, and the private heroes did not pay attention to it, until the ninth day when the Xixia people began to attack the city, Gongsun Shu changed all the 100,000 garrisons to the city and 100,000 reinforcements began to fight, only to have a flash in his heart, it turned out that this was the marshal protecting them, and he did not rest, nor did he obey the order, and all became warriors who rescued the wounded soldiers from the city wall to the city wall, and also dealt with a few Western Xia soldiers who attacked the city wall from time to time.

Every two hours, Gongsun Shu would replace all the soldiers defending the city with new reinforcements to rest, and always took turns to ensure the physical fitness and combat effectiveness of the soldiers, but the 100,000 garrisons were not sent out to fight once, and were forcibly divided into five brigades, taking turns to rescue the wounded soldiers on the city wall, and throwing the corpses of the Tangut people who attacked the city wall out of the city, so as not to affect the battle of the soldiers defending the city.

The Western Xia army attacked the city for five days and four nights, and the corpses of the soldiers under the city walls were piled up, so they had no choice but to stop the siege and retreat to the garrison with all the corpses, except for the wounded soldiers, 57,000 people were killed in the battle, and more than 120,000 people were directly reduced.

And what makes Xia Yizong Li Liangzuo even more puzzled is that the people defending the city seem to have not been reduced, it stands to reason that they have not eaten or drunk for five days and four nights, and they should be so hungry that no one can fight, but they are full of physical strength from beginning to end, as if they have just entered the battlefield, thinking of this, a bad thought flies straight to their minds,

"By the way, Da Song has been secretly replacing combat soldiers, but he didn't find out, this is a big deal", he couldn't help but look up to the sky and smiled bitterly,

"I'm going to have a good meeting with this mysterious Marshal of the Great Song for a while!". Gongsun Shu's losses were also a lot, even if there was a garrison to rescue the wounded, more than 7,000 people died, and nearly 40,000 people were seriously wounded, until all the Tangut people withdrew and disappeared, and then handed over the work of defending the city to the original garrison, and he took all the living soldiers to rest in the barracks.
