Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Zhang Heng sailed into the moat and searched for more than a hundred feet before he found Zhang Shun floating on the river, but Zhang Shun was unconscious.  [This article comes from] Fortunately, after Zhang Shun lit the explosive barrel, he was afraid of being hurt by gravel and dived to the bottom of the water.  Although he floated up after being unconscious, the falling speed of the gravel was much faster than his rising speed, so he was not hit by the gravel.

    Zhang Heng rescued his brother, but after seeing that he couldn't wake him up, he hurriedly hugged Zhang Shun and ran to the palace.

    Chao Yong was directing his soldiers to search the palace in the palace hall. When he saw Zhang Shun being brought in unconsciously, he hurriedly said to Shi Yong who was guarding him: "Go and call the army doctor to put brother Zhang Shun here."

    Chao Yong casually tore off the white tiger skin on the throne and spread it on the ground.

    The people of Xixia are white and fierce by nature. After Li Yuanhao got a white tiger skin, he kept it covered on the throne.

    Zhang Heng was worried about his brother and was not polite, so he put Zhang Shun on the tiger skin.

    Chao Yong saw that there were no obvious injuries on Zhang Shun¡¯s body and asked, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with brother Zhang Shun?¡±

    Zhang Hengdao: "He sailed a boat to blow up the city. He might have been knocked unconscious."

    Chao Yong glared and said, "Didn't I tell you to spend a lot of money to hire suicide warriors to blow up the city? You are all generals now. The safety of your soldiers and horses is at stake, so you cannot take risks lightly. Who asked him to go?"

    In order to prevent the Xixia people from sinking the ship that was building the wall, the gunpowder fuse was kept very short. Otherwise, considering Zhang Shun's underwater skills, this would not be considered a dangerous job.

    Zhang Hengdao: "He is going by himself. He is afraid that the ship will be sunk by the Xixia people and waste the gunpowder on the ship. If he can't get close to the city wall, the second ship will be Ruan Xiaoqi."

    Chao Yongnai said: "How much gunpowder was put on the ship?"

    "Two thousand catties."

    Chao Yong had discussed with everyone before that if the quantity was small, he might not be able to blow through the city wall. If he used it all at once, he would be afraid of being intercepted by the Xixia people.  I had to use a compromise method, using half the gunpowder at a time to have two chances.

    The amount of gunpowder was used in accordance with Chao Yong's instructions.  But this servant did not follow Chao Yong's instructions.

    However, Zhang Shun and Ruan Xiaoqi also thought about the army. Once they failed to get close to the city wall twice, the five thousand army would face the pursuit and interception of Xixia soldiers and horses. It was better for two people to fall into danger than the whole army.

    Chao Yong also knew this, but he was not willing to let the Liangshan brothers take risks when he was about to unify the country.  If we fight for success together, we will naturally enjoy wealth and honor together.

    Even if it is impossible to blow through the city wall, with the divine arm crossbow and fire thunder, Chao Yong is confident that he can lead 5,000 people to kill again.  In the future, the troops and horses were reorganized.  It would be easy to destroy Xixia again.

    Unexpectedly, Zhang Shun was as brave as ever and went to blow up the city wall himself.

    "I'm going to see the prince."

    Chao Yong saw that the imperial doctor from the personal army had arrived, and hurriedly said: "Let's see how brother Zhang Shun is doing?"

    "yes"

    Liu Zheng was an imperial doctor in the Imperial Medical Bureau. When Chao Yong went on an expedition, Chao Gai transferred him to Chao Yong's personal army.  in case.

    Liu Zheng saw that the prince paid so much attention to the people on the ground, so he hurriedly sat down on the spot and felt Zhang Shun's pulse.

    Chao Yong didn¡¯t dare to disturb Liu Zheng. Seeing Liu Zheng put down Zhang Shun¡¯s wrist, he said: ¡°How is it?¡±

    Liu Zheng smiled and said: "No, it must have been a huge impact, and the internal organs were injured. General Zhang has strong muscles and bones. He will recover after some rest."

    Chao Yong also breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

    Zhang Heng said, "Then why isn't he awake yet?"

    Liu Zhengdao: "General Zhang was just knocked unconscious. He should be able to wake up tonight."

    Hearing this, Zhang Heng felt relieved.

    Chao Yong picked up Zhang Shun.  He smiled and said: "Let's go and find a place in the back to settle Brother Zhang Shun."

    Zhang Heng hurriedly stretched out his hand and said: "The end will come."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "No problem."

    Although most of the buildings in Xingqing Mansion are earthen houses, the palace is magnificently built.  Although the Xixia people also admired Han culture, the founding emperor Li Yuanhao was afraid that the Dangxiang people would be assimilated by the Han people.  He strongly advocated maintaining the national style, so the palace buildings were built with the characteristics of the Dangxiang ethnic group.

    Chao Yong¡¯s five hundred soldiers are searching for the remaining palace guards and members of the royal family in the palace.

    Chao Yong placed Zhang Shun in a side hall and asked a few soldiers to take care of him. Then he and Zhang Heng came to the front hall.

    Zhang Heng cupped his fists and said: "When I came here, I saw the navy patrolling the streets. Zhang Shun has already settled down. I will lead my troops to patrol the streets."

    Chao Yong nodded and said: "Okay, I will replace you when Li Kui leads his troops back to the city."

    At this time, the sky has darkened, and the stars are already blinking mischievously in the sky.

    The previous noise in the city has disappeared, those who saw the opportunity had already fled when Daliang soldiers and horses seized the city gate. Those who could not escape had no choice but to go home obediently under the driving force of the navy, while those who did not cooperate were put to rest forever.

    "Tap-ta-ta"

    When Chao Yong heard that there were many good horses in the palace and that the palace guards' war horses were also in the palace, he led a hundred soldiers to ride on the streets to check.  Before they had gone far, they saw a group of people coming from the south. One of them was screaming in pain.

    Li Kui had also seen Chao Yong and his party. He walked up to him with a big smile, carrying a head and said: "Prince, this is Xiao Heda's head. All the people outside the city were killed, and only a few dozen people escaped."  personal."

    Jiao Ting said: "Xiao Heda is said to be the general in charge of the Xingqing Mansion."

    Chao Yong nodded and said, "Where are those war horses?"

    Li Kui shook his head and said: "Those beasts couldn't help but be frightened. Many of them had injured horseshoes, and some had diarrhea and bubbling. They probably won't be able to go to the battlefield. I drove a group back, but I can't remember how many of them."

    Jiao Ting said with a smile: "We have brought more than 2,500 war horses back to the city. I'm afraid the rest can only eat meat."

    Chao Yong nodded and said: "Yes, the navy must be tired after sailing all the way. You patrol the streets on their behalf, collect the weapons of the big families in the city, and invite them to the palace. Anyone who resists will be killed and pardoned."

    Hearing this, Li Kui smiled and said, "Okay, I just like killing big people."

    Chao Yong warned: "There are many Han people in the city, so don't kill them indiscriminately. Xiang Chong and Li Gun also lead your people to work separately. Only search the big households. Finish the work early and rest early."

    Jiao Ting also knew that he was asked to look at Li Kui, nodded, and followed Li Kui.

    Chao Yong went to the south gate again. Zhang Qing had already had people block the gap opened by the explosion, and all the big ships outside had been withdrawn.  If the Xixia people wanted to attack, the first thing they would face was the ten-foot-wide moat.

    Chao Yong told Zhang Qing to guard carefully and wait until Li Kui's troops wiped out the big households in the city before taking turns to rest, lest any big households in the city gather their men to kill them.

    People in Dangxiang are good at martial arts, and their homes are equipped with weapons. Large households have many servants, and they can raise a team of horses at any time.  If the earth-shattering noise hadn't frightened the Dangxiang people, when Liang Guo's troops entered the city, the Dangxiang nobles would have gathered men to resist.

    Li Kui confiscated the weapons of the big families, and they became lambs to be slaughtered, and had to prevent them from resisting.

    Chao Yong sent someone to inform the other three gate guards, and then rode horses to the palace.
