Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Page 432

With a muffled bang, Zhang Qian's helmet was smashed and dented.

His whole body shook, he staggered two steps, and in a trance, he fell to the ground, on one of his subordinates, and stopped moving.

Liu Xi, on the other hand, roared angrily, like a wounded tiger, slashed fiercely on the neck of the Xixia soldier who killed Zhang Qian with an ax full of gaps.

When the ax went down, the head was cut off directly, and a large amount of blood was splashed on the surrounding people.

But everyone has no expression, because this scene is happening all the time today.

Liu Xi rushed into the Xixia people, and was drowned in a fight.

The snow field stretching ten miles to the north of Weirong Village has been completely dyed red.

The cold wind rolled up layers of red snow fog.

The wind and snow whistled in the mountains and forests, as if the souls of the dead soldiers were reciting ancient songs.

The good news quickly spread to the commander's camp in the west of the city. Li Renli couldn't believe it when he received the good news.

"The Song army was wiped out!" Li Renli suddenly stood up.

"Your Highness, this is the head of the chief general of the Song Army."

When Ye Cirong saw Liu Xi's head, he said, "This is indeed the head of the chief general of the Song Army!"

"Good!" Li Renli was overjoyed.

He was still unwilling to fight with Song Jun at first, he only wanted to put pressure, negotiate, and get Yinzhou back.

Li Liangfu laughed loudly and said, "Your Highness, we can take advantage of the victory and pursue our troops to the city of Yinzhou!"

"Yinzhou City is as solid as gold, so it's not so easy to capture!" Li Renli took a deep breath.

Since the Song army took Yinzhou back, it has continuously strengthened Yinzhou City, and later opened up the appeasement grain road and built Mizhi Village.

Otherwise, Li Qianshun wouldn't use probing tactics.

Li Renli said with a smile: "However, when our army defeats the Song army, the morale of the Song army in Yinzhou must be damaged. You can send people to talk while fighting, and keep putting pressure on the Song army. Let's see how long the Song State can last in the east to Goryeo! "

The night was frozen by the cold wind like splashed ink.

A team starting from Yinzhou, crossing the mountains, arrived in the west of Weirong Village in the snow and ice.

The Xixia people who were indulging in the joy of victory did not know that their end was coming.

Chapter 624 Tianwu Iron Cavalry ([-]rd update)

A thick ink-like night enveloped the whole world.

On the trail between the mountains, a group of people held torches and were moving forward.

The wind and snow hit them in the face, and they didn't care.

After just resting for more than two hours, Liu Rui's people started on their way again.

For Liu Rui, time is very precious.

Liu Kai asked Liu Xi to go to Weirong Village to fight a defensive battle to attract the attention of the Xixia people, while Liu Rui's purpose was to send out surprise soldiers.

Since it is a surprise soldier, it must be fast.

The flames in those mountains and forests were so weak in the wind and snow that they seemed to be extinguished at any time.

"Report! Twenty miles ahead is Weirong Village. After passing that mountain pass, there is flat land."

The scouts brought back the news.

"No Xixia guards have been found yet."

Liu Rui said: "Explore again, don't take it lightly."

"Yes!"

The wind and snow in the mountains are getting bigger and bigger, and there seems to be only the sound of the wind and snow in the world, but neither the mountains nor the cold wind and snow can stop them.

After some time, they finally arrived at the mountain pass.

There are indeed no Xixia sentry posts around.

Liu Rui said: "It's strange, the Xixia people didn't send any sentries here?"

"We have searched carefully, and there is indeed no sentry post."

The sky was bright.

The outlines of those mountains and rivers are also revealed, like giant beasts crawling between the sky and the earth, hideous and terrifying.

Liu Ruizai checked everyone's condition carefully, and then ordered everyone to have breakfast quickly.

Seeing those faces flushed from the cold, and even some people's faces and hands were cracked from the cold, Liu Rui said: "Boys, if we pass through this mountain pass, we will be able to defeat the western bandits! It's time for us to make a contribution! Okay!" Boys should fight the enemy!"

After finishing speaking, he asked the whole army to open their wine pots, and only the last ones were left.

"Come on! Let's drink it together! After drinking it, life and death will be ignored!" Liu Rui said, "Each of us has a famous brand, we will not be forgotten, and we will not be alone!"

After speaking, he was the first to drink the wine.

The rest of the people also gulped down their drinks.

Liu Rui walked to the front and got on his horse.

At this time, the sky slowly brightened.

The iron cavalry of the Tianwu Army was like a quiet torrent. After flowing through the mountain pass, it began to stretch out.

The Song Army at the head of the Weirong Walled City was still stationed. It was quiet in the early morning, and the whole Weirong Village was filled with a sense of despair and gloom.

Every household in the city could not sleep, and everyone was silent.

The old mother wept for her son who died in battle, and the child dreamed in his sleep that his father had returned.

In order to deter the Song people in Wei Rongzhai, Li Liangfu ordered people to chop off the heads of the Song soldiers who died overnight and pile them up outside the city.

It piled up into a bloody hill.

When the soldiers and civilians in the walled city saw it, they all cried and scolded the Xixia people.

The Xixia people continued to stimulate the Song people with words outside the city, trying to drive them out of the city.

Just after dawn, Li Renli woke up.

He was so excited that he couldn't sleep, so he called Li Liangfu and asked, "Did Jiebao send someone back to Xingqing Mansion?"

"Your Highness, you have already asked the question for the fifth time, and sent several groups of people to send it back."

"What shall we do next?"

Li Renli felt that Li Liangfu's reckless approach was not bad.

"Why don't you go directly to Yinzhou?" Li Liangfu said, "The morale of our army has just been raised. The news of the Song army's defeat will soon be sent back to Yinzhou, which will definitely affect the morale of the Song army."

Li Renli did not speak.

Li Liangfu continued: "Your Highness, you have to fight first, and then talk after the fight. If you don't hurt them, they won't talk."

"What if they increase their troops from Shaanxi and continue to expand the war situation?"

"You said it all, how could the Song Dynasty increase its troops so easily when it conquered Koryo!" Li Liangfu was quite excited, "The Song army will never continue to expand the war situation, we just want to send troops to Yinzhou."

Li Renli said: "But Yinzhou City is really strong, we can't conquer it."

"Besiege and not attack, besiege the city and fight for aid!" Li Liangfu said, "Anyway, this place is not far from Shizhou, and our army's supplies are not a problem."

"What about Weirong Village?"

"The Song army in Weirongzhai was basically killed in battle. We only need to keep a few thousand people here to guard."

Li Renli thought about it, he just experienced a huge victory yesterday, and now he is still excited.

"Okay! Just follow what you said!" Li Renli made a decisive decision immediately.

Li Renli took a sip of his wine and said proudly: "Send the order! The whole army breaks out and advances to Yinzhou!"

He added: "Oh, keep 2000 men here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard some faint sounds.

Li Renli glanced outside, thinking he had heard wrong.

"go quickly."

After speaking, Li Renli seemed to hear it again, and he asked Li Liangfu, "Did you hear any sound?"

"No."

"Oh, that's what I heard wrong..."

After Li Renli finished speaking, he frowned again: "Didn't you hear?"

Li Liangfu pricked up his ears and was taken aback for a moment: "This seems to be..."

At this time, the cavalry of the Tianwu Army were not far from the barracks of the Xixia people.

They began to approach the Xixia barracks at a normal speed.

Three thousand armored cavalry and nine thousand war horses quickly spread out on the snow field after leaving the mountain pass.

The red tassel fluttering in the wind and snow was particularly eye-catching.

Getting closer and closer.

Just woke up, the Xixia people who were eating breakfast also heard the sound of horseshoes trampling the ground.

Someone looked curiously in the direction of the sound.

Found nothing on the ramp ahead.

However, the dense sound of horseshoes is telling everyone that there is a huge cavalry army behind the ramp!

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked in that direction in horror.

The white snow there rose up and formed a white mist.

The ground was also trembling faintly, as if some terrifying giant beast was about to roll up on the ground.

Soon, a black mark appeared on the top of the long slope.

After the first row of Tianwu cavalry appeared, they began to descend.

This slope is very gentle.

"kill!"

Liu Rui pulled out his knife and spoke concisely.

The first row of cavalry began to trot and speed up, and the rear followed closely after coming up, row after row, and began to shake the snow field.

As they approached, the speed of the first row of cavalry was accelerating.

At this time, Xi Xia finally reacted from the shock.

"The enemy is coming!"

"Attack camp!"

"quick……"

In their haste, the Xixia people were in a mess with their gongs and drums shaking the sky.

Li Renli rushed out from the tent and shouted loudly, "What happened..."

But his voice was drowned out by the gradually rising iron hooves.

He saw a large cloud of snow and mist rolling up ahead, and felt that the ground under his feet seemed to be sinking.

I saw the cavalry of the Song Army turned into a torrent of steel, rushed into the tents of the Xixia people, tore apart all obstacles, hammered the heads of the unsuspecting Xixia people, and cut off their heads.

And, push forward quickly, all the way like a broken bamboo.

Chapter 625: Shocking the Earth (Part [-])

The Xixia people, who had just experienced a great battle and were still indulging in the joy of victory, were in a state of bewilderment at this time.

The biggest problem is that a lot of Xixia people died yesterday, if not tens of thousands, there may be several thousand, and the losses are all garrison troops in the north of the city.

The Xixia people were cleaning up the venue overnight, and many people from the west of the city were dispatched.

This led to a completely different order in the camp than before, and the defense became lax.
