- The scorching sun is in the sky, smoke is curling up in the city, and the food is fragrant, but the war continues at the south gate. (Baidu search Xixia soldiers and horses continuously recruited people from afar and then drove them to fill the moat.
The party members are brave, and the people who have been recruited have had several conflicts with the Renli army.
In recent years, the party's population has increased, and the system of all people being soldiers has been abolished. Dangxiang people are also accustomed to farming and receiving food, and serving as soldiers to receive pay. They paid for the food, and it was up to the soldiers to do the fighting.
Now it is time to rest and pay for food. Naturally, the tough party members do not want to suffer such a disadvantage. Especially when they are forced to use bows and arrows to suppress the archers at the top of the city and the strong men climbing the archery tower, they are even more unruly. They have been killed several times. Being suppressed by the city walls and suffering numerous casualties, the people behind them were unwilling to die. After getting their weapons, they rushed towards the supervising soldiers.
At first, Renli only needed to send out a single army to suppress the commotion of the strong men, but later, more and more corpses piled up under the city, and the smell of blood in the air became stronger and stronger, and the wildness of the party members was aroused.
The strong men ignored the troops waiting behind them and began to shoot the supervising soldiers. Compared with the people on the top of the city, the people on the ground were naturally much easier to shoot.
Many soldiers were caught off guard and were shot to the ground. The strong men nearby picked up their weapons and began to fight with the supervising soldiers.
Renli sent a group of soldiers to suppress it, but unexpectedly some of the soldiers from the same tribe stood on the side of the strong men and helped to fight.
The party members below the city began to kill each other, and those on top of the city were able to rest for a while.
Chao Yong opened the lid of the bucket, grabbed the water ladle from the bucket, and scooped out a ladle of water. The ice cubes in it had already completely melted, and the barrel was a little warm under the sun. The water in the bucket has long since lost its coolness.
"Gudong"
"Gudong"
"Gudong"
Chao Yong drank a ladle of water, and then he felt that the heat had subsided a little. He handed the ladle to Sun Li aside and said, "Everyone, let's drink water and watch the fun."
When the soldiers heard what the prince said, their tense nerves relaxed.
While drinking water, Sun Li looked at the melee crowd below the city and said, "Dangxiang's folk customs are indeed strong. If Xixia is destroyed, there will probably be many bandits, and it will be difficult to control them."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "Just wipe out the remaining bandits slowly. After destroying Xixia, move in more Han people to separate the Dangxiang tribes and save them from fighting."
Han Shizhong said: "The party members are aggressive, but those households lack swords and guns. They will suffer losses if they fight. Next time they come to fill the river, we will throw some swords and guns at them to keep them fighting among themselves."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "This is a good idea. Anyway, Xixia soldiers and horses are not short of swords and guns. It doesn't hurt if we send them some more. Shi Yong, Xue Yong, you take your troops back to the palace and replace them with three other teams of soldiers and horses. Let them transport some weapons. Come."
"yes"
At the same time as the rotation of soldiers, Chao Yong also asked Ma Lin and Zhang Qing to exchange city defenses in units of hundreds.
A team of 100 people passed through the city and headed for the west gate. Even if the Xixia people came to attack at this time, the soldiers and horses at the city head were enough to repel the Xixia people.
soon. Zhang Qing led a hundred-man team from the west gate, and another hundred-man team from Ma Lin went to the west gate again.
Renli has sent 10,000 people to suppress the riot, but all the more than 10,000 strong men on the front line have joined the battle group, plus some generals and soldiers from the same tribe. The battle was in doubt for a moment.
Seeing the constant casualties among the 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command, the Jingzhou garrison couldn't help but said: "Keep fighting like this. Even if we can kill all those strong men, I'm afraid more than half of my soldiers and horses will be killed or injured."
When the Lingzhou garrison saw him, he said: "If we send more troops and horses forward, I'm afraid there will be more mutinous soldiers, and we have to be wary of the Han people, so it's not appropriate to send more troops and horses."
The general of Dingzhou was also afraid of joining the battle group and damaging his troops. He echoed: "There are already some soldiers under my command who are unstable. Once they join the battle group, I am afraid they will defect."
Renli also said: "The current situation really makes it impossible to retreat."
The guard general of Jingzhou said: "It is better to withdraw the troops and horses and let the people retreat."
The guards of Lingzhou and Jingzhou were at odds. Hearing this, he immediately said, "Let them all leave. Who will fill in the moat?"
The Jingzhou guard saw that the Lingzhou guard was adding insult to injury, and simply said: "The war is a matter for those of us who are paid, but now we are forcing the people to do our work, no wonder they resist. In my opinion, it is time to let go now If we kill the people, each tribe will take turns to fill the river. Otherwise, if we kill all the people, the people who come later will still resist, and our troops and horses will be exhausted. Even if we fill the river, there will not be many troops to attack the city. "
The guard general of Lingzhou retorted: "If we use our soldiers and horses to fill the river, the river will be filled."There will be no soldiers and horses in the moat. "
"Then the people will fill in the river, and the soldiers will be responsible for covering it," said the Jingzhou guard.
Previously, Dingzhou soldiers and horses were responsible for the cover. After thousands of casualties, the Dingzhou defender proposed to dispatch strong men to cover. At this time, when he heard that the Jingzhou defender was about to overturn his proposal, he couldn't help but said: "When the archers arrived at the city, they were completely suppressed by the city. The soldiers also complained a lot. If the soldiers are responsible for covering, unless they are allowed to pile up mountains of earth, change Now it¡¯s a case of death.¡±
Renli frowned and said: "There is no time to pile up mountains of dirt now. These untouchables are rebelling now when the country is using them. Kill them all."
Renli was born in the royal family and was successful at a young age. In his opinion, these commoners did come from lowly backgrounds, and some generals who came from noble families did not think there was anything wrong. However, there are some generals who are brave men from various tribes and have been promoted through their military exploits. The strong men fighting in front are their relatives and friends. When Renli called them untouchables, their expressions changed.
The guard of Jingzhou was still arguing, but he heard the sound of rapid horse hooves from behind. He turned around and saw two patrolling cavalry running towards him with one person in charge.
Everyone looked anxious and knew that there was another military emergency.
"Yesterday night, Liang's soldiers and horses raided Mingsha, and Mingsha has fallen."
Hearing this, Renli hurriedly asked: "How many soldiers and horses are there in the Liang Kingdom?"
"No less than fifty thousand."
When the generals heard that the Liang army had captured Mingsha, they immediately panicked.
The guard general of Lingzhou said: "Liang's soldiers and horses captured Mingsha, and the next step must be to attack Lingzhou. There are only 10,000 soldiers and horses left in Lingzhou. I am afraid that we cannot defend the city. Our troops must return to Lingzhou to aid."
Renli frowned and said, "Ten thousand people can't defend Lingzhou, but 20,000 people can defend it?"
The guard of Lingzhou looked at the gap in the wall of Xingqing Mansion and lost confidence.
Renli said: "Liang's soldiers and horses have gunpowder to break the city, and the city wall is almost useless. The prince of Liang previously led 90,000 soldiers and horses, and defeated the armies of the King of Jin and the late emperor. Now that 50,000 soldiers and horses are coming to attack, who has the confidence to lead the army? Block them?"
The generals looked at each other and shook their heads in silence.
Brother Cha is the God of War in Xixia, and Li Qianshun has a large number of elite men under his command. Both of them were defeated. They didn't have Cha Ge's strategy, and most of their subordinates were defeated soldiers who had returned from Shaanxi. No one dared to say that they could turn decay into magic.
The Dingzhou garrison asked: "Where have King Pu's two hundred thousand troops retreated to now?"
Hearing this, Renli said: "According to the schedule, we should have passed Hengshan."
The guard of Jingzhou asked: "Don't King Pu and King Shu have any contact?"
Renli said: "Two days ago, he sent back the news and he has already retreated back the same way. But there is no news in the past two days."
The guard general of Jingzhou asked: "Is there any accident? Otherwise, there should be news coming back from King Pu, right?"
In fact, Renli already knew that Huanqing Road had cut off the grain road and Renzhong's army was trapped in Huanzhou, but he believed that his brother would definitely be able to break through and come back. Now it seems that everyone still doesn't know and is unwilling to tell them, so he asked: "My brother We have 200,000 soldiers and horses under our command. The prince of Liang and the elite soldiers and horses have entered our country. Is there anyone in Shaanxi who can threaten my brother? "
When everyone heard the words, they felt that it was reasonable, but they also felt that it was wrong. If there were no accidents, Renzhong's soldiers and horses should return home. Once the army returns home, it is impossible for everyone not to know the news.
The Jingzhou garrison saw that everyone could not come up with anything after a while, but his own soldiers and horses in front were suffering constant casualties, so he couldn't help but said to the messenger behind him: "Retreat the troops."
"Woo woo woo"
A loud horn sound sounded, and the Jingzhou soldiers and horses in the melee heard the order and withdrew from the battle group and retreated, but the red-eyed strong men chased them and killed them.
Seeing this, Renli hurriedly shouted: "Don't let the rebels rush into the position. All the troops will shoot at the position."
Hearing this, many generals hurriedly gave orders.
The dense rain of arrows flew from the front of the formation like locusts, shooting at the retreating Jingzhou soldiers and horses in front.
Some soldiers who retreated quickly were immediately shot to the ground. The soldiers behind saw that there was no way forward and could only go around.
After chasing for a while, the strong men became discouraged and fled in all directions. Some even fled under the city wall.
Chao Yong saw several Xixia people running away screaming, and asked Han Shizhong aside: "What did they say?"
Han Shizhong has been fighting in the northwest for more than ten years, but he can understand simple words, especially when the people below still shout common words on the battlefield, laughing: "They want to surrender to us. These people killed the Xixia officers and soldiers, and the rebels Likewise, Xixia soldiers and horses will definitely take revenge."
Chao Yongxiao?: "Move the wooden fence and let them in."
When the Xixia people saw the Han people opening the wooden fence, they couldn't help but rushed over with great joy, and some even called for friends.
Many strong men heard the commotion here and ran here one after another, fearing that they would not be able to escape the pursuit of officers and soldiers outside the city.
Chao Yong immediately asked Li Kui¡¯s troops to isolate all the strong men who had just entered the city.
In order to prevent misunderstanding, the Xixia people threw away their weapons outside the city. When they entered the city, they were surrounded by Li Kui and his group of card players, and they all regretted it.
Li Kui, who had been holding back for a long time after watching everyone fighting in the past few days, led his troops to surround the Xixia people, and immediately excitedly shouted to the city: "Kill all these Xixia people?"
Chao Yong shouted: "Shave their heads and let them go."
Those who could understand Chinese among the Xixia people below the city were relieved when they heard what the general on the city said. Hair is nothing compared to life. - Didn't finish reading?
