Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Daliang did not close the city gate, but Xixia did not continue to attack, but slowly retreated.

    Yao Pingzhong asked in confusion: "Why did the Xixia troops retreat?"

    Han Shizhong said: "These soldiers and horses must have gotten the news last night and came in a hurry today. They can't attack the city without siege equipment. This time they should be here to show off their power. If we can't hold on, we will retreat. Unexpectedly  But we went out to fight, and this gave us some military exploits. Now it¡¯s time to set up camp and make siege equipment.¡±

    Liu Qi said eagerly: "Why don't we chase them for a while."

    Hearing this, Yao Pingzhong immediately echoed: "What General Liu said is that we should also learn from Li Yuanhao. When they come with heavy troops, we will withdraw. If they are not prepared, we will attack."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "When the enemy advances, I retreat; when the enemy is stationed, I harass; when the enemy is tired, I attack; when the enemy retreats, I pursue."

    This is the sixteen-character policy of guerrillas in later generations, and there are different opinions as to who summarized it.

    After hearing this, Sun Li couldn't help but praise: "The prince has fully explained the harassment war in these four sentences."

    Liu Qi smiled and said: "We will follow the prince's instructions, and we will definitely harass the Xixia soldiers and horses to exhaustion."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "The soldiers and horses in the city must guard the city day and night, and it is not suitable to go out to fight. If you guys want to go out to fight, go together, there will be someone to take care of you."

    Sun Li shook his head and said, "I'm not going."

    Zhang Qing thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I'm not good at bows and arrows, so I won't go."

    Liu Qi looked at Han Shizhong and Yao Pingzhong.

    Han Shizhong was also very good at riding and archery. Although Yao Pingzhong was not known for his archery skills, he was also good at shooting a strong bow.

    The three of them were young and energetic and wanted to make contributions. They immediately handed over their hands and said, "We are willing to leave the city."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "That's good, the original plan to spread the news to other countries is cancelled. I'll give you another chance to make a name for yourself. You can hunt Xixia people to your heart's content. If you kill a hundred, I will make you a baron."

    Hearing this, Liu Qi couldn't help but excitedly asked: "How many are viscounts?"

    He is good at shooting. As long as the Xixia people send patrols out, he can hunt them down.  Unless the Xixia people all huddled in the camp, of course that was impossible.  Only by releasing the patrolmen a few miles away will there be enough time to gather troops when the enemy attacks the camp.  If you are only on alert in the camp and discover that the enemy is attacking the camp.  It was too late to gather troops unless the entire army was on alert.  Of course this is impossible.

    For a person with strong archery skills, it is indeed not difficult to kill a hundred people.  The difficulty is that there is no such opportunity in normal times. Although Xixia and Northern Song Dynasty were enemies in the past, they were always at war and sometimes at peace.  Peacetime.  It is undoubtedly a serious crime to provoke someone lightly.  During the war, it was almost impossible for them to fight alone.  The two sides almost always fought around some steep terrain and border fortresses, and accidentally fell into an ambush.

    ?????????????????????????????????? Xingqing Mansion is located in the Yinchuan Plain, with a vast expanse of plains outside the city. No matter how they are surrounded, there will be enough space for the three of them to escape.

    There is no problem with safety. It is only a matter of time before we hunt down a hundred people.

    "Of course you can't be granted the title of Viscount easily."

    Liu Qizheng was a little disappointed.  Chao Yong added: "If you can hunt five hundred people, I can give you a viscount."

    Although it is easy for generals to hunt down soldiers, they cannot use unlimited bows, especially when they use strong bows.  At most, he fired more than a hundred bows a day.

    However, Liu Qi and the others are not hopeless. Zhong Shidao's army has just entered Huaide's army from Zhenrong Army and has not yet entered Xixia territory.  It will take four or five days to reach Xingqing Mansion, as long as Renli does not withdraw his troops.  There is hope for them.

    Liu Qi and the other two gathered together and went to prepare arrows and war horses.

    Zhang Qing heard that he could be knighted.  He was also a little excited and said: "I have also arranged the city defense, let's go out of the city with them to have fun."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "You are at least the founding uncle now. It is useless to hunt down soldiers if you want to upgrade your title. Besides, you, a general, go out to hunt down soldiers, which is not doing your job properly."

    Zhang Qing smiled awkwardly and said: "The prince said yes, then forget it."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "This city gate is open for them to come in and out. The people in the city have to go out to cut firewood and so on these days. Designate some people to do these tasks, so that the soldiers can get to know the people who come out of the city, so as to prevent the Xixia people from mixing up.  Come in the spies."

    Zhang Qing nodded and said: "Prince, don't worry, just find some Han people to do it, they can also take advantage of the opportunity to make a lot of money."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "You can't let them drive up prices, but it's okay to let them earn some hard-earned money."

    After chatting with Zhang Qing for a few words, Chao Yong took Sun Li to visit the other three gates.

    Soon, Han Shizhong and three others left the city, one person and three horses, each with a strong force on them.?, three pots of arrows.

    The Xixia scouts began to suffer. The Xixia soldiers and horses had seen the martial arts of three people, but they had not yet seen the shooting skills of three people.  Some spies who thought they were good at riding and shooting even took the initiative to find the three of them, but soon no one dared to find the three of them alone. Instead, dozens of people gathered to surround and kill the three of them.

    Dozens of people surrounded and killed three people, but the three of them refused to retreat. Yao Pingzhong liked to fight hand to hand, while Han Shizhong always shot and rushed, but Liu Qi rarely let people get close, and almost all used bows and arrows to kill Xixia people.

    However, the Xixia army retreated ten miles away to set up camp and build siege equipment.

    The three of them did not attack the army, but just patrolled and shot around the camp.

    When there were too many people, the three would retreat. When there were few, the three would approach the camp and shoot them. A patrol of dozens of people would be attacked by the three.

    Renli heard that the three men were hunting patrol soldiers, so he sent a few sharpshooters out of the camp to challenge the three men, but they were shot dead by Liu Qi and Han Shizhong.

    Renli could only grit his teeth and continue to send soldiers to patrol, but each patrol team had a hundred soldiers and horses.

    Even so, the three men continued to attack the patrol.  The three of them rode fine horses raised in the palace. They came and went like the wind. From time to time they would approach and shoot a few people before leaving.

    The patrol officers reacted, and if they wanted to pursue them, they could only be disappointed.

    After several attempts, the three people could not be surrounded.

    Within half a day, the reputation of the harassing trio spread throughout the Xixia camp. The soldiers assigned to patrol would pray not to run into the trio before leaving the camp.

    It wasn¡¯t until night fell that the three of them rushed back.

    Zhang Qing personally guarded the city gate. When he saw the three people returning, he ordered the suspension bridge to be put away and the city gate to be closed to prevent Xixia people from sneak attacks at night.

    Zhang Qing looked at the bulging bags that the three of them were hanging and said with a smile: "It looks like the goods have been received well."

    Han Shizhong shook his head and said: "Many of the people shot and killed were taken back by other Xixia people, and it was too late to take away their badges."

    Zhang Qing smiled and said: "How? Are you enough to be a baron?"

    Han Shizhong shrugged and said: "Yao Pingzhong and I should be able to get enough tomorrow. Liu Qi shot more than 80 people today."

    It was almost noon when the three of them left the city, and they returned to the city several times to change horses and rest.  Zhang Qing heard that Liu Qi had killed more than 80 people, and he couldn't help but praise: "Liu Xiaowei's shooting skills are comparable to General Li Guanghua."

    Liu Qi said modestly: "I have heard the name of General Hua many times. How can the light of a firefly dare to compete with the bright moon?"

    Zhang Qing smiled and said: "You two are both rare marksmen. I'm afraid there won't be many marksmen like you on the grassland."

    Liu Qi said with a smile: "The general's arrows without feathers are the best. We will be inferior if we have feathered arrows."

    "Haha, let's not flatter each other. Let's go to the palace together. I heard that the dinner in the palace was extremely rich last night, so I want to go and enjoy the autumn breeze."

    Besides, Renzhong had 200,000 troops along the way. Renzhong said that after surrendering to Xue Sichang, he led his troops through Hengshan. After entering Huanqing Road, the road was smooth, so he quickly entered Qingzhou and prepared to attack Yuanzhou on Jingyuan Road.  Then they encircled Weizhou.

    Unexpectedly, when Renzhong was about to use troops against Yuanzhou, he heard Yipintang reporting that Chage's army was defeated and Chage also died in the battle.

    Brother Cha¡¯s status is much higher than that of Renzhong, and Brother Cha¡¯s military use is much higher than that of Renzhong.  Cha Ge can be said to be the God of War in Xixia for nearly twenty years.

    Hearing the news of Brother Cha's death, although Renzhong had an army of 200,000, he did not dare to use any more troops and could only ask Yipintang to ask Li Qianshun for instructions.  Unexpectedly, a few days later, news came from Yipintang that Li Qianshun also died in the battle.

    The leader of the country and the God of War were killed in the battle, leaving only one of the three armies. Moreover, he heard that Daliang's firearms were extremely powerful, so Renzhong immediately decided to retreat.

    But when he returned the same way, he found that Xue Sichang, who had just surrendered, had rebelled. Soldiers and horses on the Huanqing Road passed through the forts along the way to snipe them.

    If Renzhong wanted to return to Xixia, he would have to fight all the way back.
