Time: February 28, the second year of Maode's reign, which was the third day after Hu Biao and others entered Yanjing City, at around ten o'clock in the morning.
Location: Taihe Hall, the largest hall in the Imperial Palace of Yanjing City.
(I haven’t found any relevant information. I don’t know if this place exists. Guys, don’t take it too seriously.)
It is also known as the "Jinluan Palace" in the mouth of the people. This is the place where the emperor of the Liao Dynasty used to go to court after visiting Yanjing City in the past.
Under the warm sunshine, Hu Biao, Xu Feng, Warehouse Guan, Lang Qing, Lao She, Er Pang, Windmill, Gust of Wind, Zhan Xiang, Fengrui, etc.
Ten netizens who were on the Yanjing battlefield can be considered as the final survivors.
At this moment, the whole person seemed to have no bones, regardless of his noble status as the Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty, or the national master.
Some were sitting or leaning on the white marble railings, lazily basking in the sun.
All of them looked extremely lazy, like a group of idlers with nothing to do.
Good guy! Counting the missions at the beginning of this "Jingkang Shame", this is the fifth system mission that Hu Biao and the others have experienced.
But after completing the mission to such an extent, there are actually so many netizens left, and they even live so leisurely. Isn’t this the first time we’ve met each other?
The reason why such a situation occurred was that they were in Kaifeng City before the Northern Expedition, and those who almost vomited blood from exhaustion made careful preparations.
Finally, in the decisive battle a few days ago, a crushing result was achieved against the Jin side, which is considered a relatively important aspect.
On the other hand, there are several requirements for the third phase of the mission, and there is one last one.
That is to say, before the early morning of the first day of March, the three prefectures of Lin, Feng, and Fu in Hedong have been controlled. It has not been achieved yet.
Therefore, unless those three states were lost in advance, the mission would not be officially completed until the early morning of two days later.
In the remaining time, they led the army and continued to attack Huanglong Mansion.
It seems that it is too late to kill all the remaining Jurchens in one go.
All other matters of appeasing the people in the city, screening and handling prisoners, were all left to Yue Fei and a group of military officers.
It's not that they are lazy, but that they used the excuse of needing to recover from their injuries to let Yue Fei and others take over all the work of the Northern Expedition army in advance.
In case they suddenly leave two days later, there will be big trouble.
In short, due to various chances and coincidences, the current products appeared. When the mission deadline is approaching, they actually seem to be doing nothing.
But then again, this unprecedented feeling of lying flat is really a feeling of lying flat for a while and feeling good all the time.
To put it mildly, even if Lao Hei and the others failed in their mission, their Xuange Camp team would not be wiped out. Therefore, the pressure in their hearts was relieved all of a sudden.
But such a consequence is something they absolutely don't want to see...
After a big yawn, Hu Biao suddenly thought of something and finally spoke.
He first asked everyone: "It's less than forty hours before we go back. Have you got everything you planned to leave behind?"
Upon hearing this, Lang Qing said angrily:
"Of course it's done. I didn't know Wanyan Wu was so good at buying this grandson, so I thought the final battle would be so dangerous.
I was determined to die, so I stayed up late every day writing materials.
Not to mention taking out trains, railways, and steam locomotives.
Even the relatively simple machine structures and principles of generators, internal combustion engines, and transmitters, which are very important for future industrial progress, are written down.
The result? I didn’t even warm up, and the battle was over. If I had known I could win so easily, why would I have stayed up so many nights?
I’m as tired as a dog every day, and even my hairline seems to be in danger now.”
Amidst the curses from Lang Qing's mouth, many netizens also complained one after another.
However, after excluding the part of their mouths that had no practical meaning, Hu Biao found out after a little statistics:
Good guys! These guys are actually holding back some big moves without making a sound.
With their secret preparations, a lot of content was left behind at that time involving military, economy, industry, culture, ideology, propaganda and many other aspects.
Even Gust of Wind is still in the content left behind.
The electromagnetic gun, hypersonic missile, aerospace fighter, laser, etc., which are the most cutting-edge weapons in the modern plane, and even only exist in concept, are written out one by one.
Don't look at these things. At first glance, these things are a bit outrageous and too advanced for the current situation.
However, in the modern dimension, many Guo Jia took many detours before finally exploring the correct development trend; the time, energy, materials and money involved are quite terrifying.
Anyway, these things left behind by everyone, as long as they are not leaked.
At least it can make such a nation, in the next thousands of years, so powerful that it will make foreign races despair.
After settling his worries, Hu Biao asked the warehouse manager another question, which was related to the vital interests of all of them:
"Warehouse manager, how are you preparing the trophies you brought back this time?"
Upon hearing this, the warehouse manager immediately became excited and said, "Brothers, after we go back this time, we won't have to worry about finances for the next ten lives.
Originally, when we were in the Song Dynasty, the imperial concubine collected a large number of treasures and antiques.
I brought them all over during this Northern Expedition so that they could be easily brought back.
After capturing the city of Yanjing, we almost wiped out the top brass of the Great Jin Kingdom. Although a large part of the treasures they plundered from Kaifeng back then were left in the old nest of Huanglong Mansion, they were not taken with them.
But the ones I brought with me were all the best.
Let’s put it this way, when I went back this time, I was not worried about not having any loot, but I was worried about not being able to bring so much back; and gold and silver are all low-value materials, so I didn’t care enough to bring them back.”
After hearing such a scene, everyone burst into laughter.
Before participating in system tasks, these guys who were not even second-generation people would dislike having too much money.
For a moment, I thought that when I went back, I would be able to live a life without any shortage of money.
On the faces of these people, they couldn't help but smile like silly sons of landlords.
So after all the above preparations have been made, we will wait for Lao Hei and the others in the northwest region to persist until the early morning of two days later.
"Old Hei, Big Fish, and Wu Zu, you three guys can't show off your diarrhea at this critical moment."
Hu Biao yawned and was about to squint again when he muttered something like this...
****
At the same time, at the foot of Xinqin City, which was almost 1,300 miles away from Hu Biao and the others, in the Shenmu area of Yulin in the modern plane.
Without any warning, Lao Hei sneezed loudly with the words "Aqiu~" in his mouth.
If it had been in the past, he would have complained no matter what, which grandson was talking about him behind his back.
But now, Lao Hei wiped a handful of snot bubbles spurting out of his nostrils with his palm, and then wiped it on the armor of the big fish next to him, and made no more moves.
Even if Big Fish saw such a scene with the corner of his eye, apart from frowning more tightly, he didn't seem to have much reaction.
The reason why the two of them are like this is not so much that they are quite open-minded.
What's more, the two of them are now facing some more important situations and have no time to worry about such trivial matters.
Since they did not have any cavalry troops, they experienced the first battle with the Xixia people.
In the following time, under the harassment of Xixia cavalry every day, the forward speed became extremely slow, with stops and starts.
It was only a hundred miles away, but it was not until the afternoon of the day before yesterday that we advanced to a position twenty miles outside Xinqin City.
After arriving here, because the surrounding terrain is relatively flat, we can already see Xinqin City, which is not a very tall city wall.
Of course, the Zhejia soldiers and civilians on the city wall could also see their arrival.
Unfortunately, their original plan to enter the city turned out to be very difficult.
Because when Lao Hei and others stood on the high command vehicle, they could clearly see that outside the small Xinqin City, they were surrounded by an astonishing number of Xixia people.
After observing the Xixia army using the method of observing the army.
Immediately, they came up with a quite frightening figure. There were probably 250,000 or even more Xixia troops under Xinqin City.
Perhaps to prevent them from entering the city, an astonishing number of trenches were dug in front of the Third Army.
Under such a situation, the Third Army, which was almost purely infantry, seemed to have to abandon their astonishing number of new large vehicles in order to pass through these trenches.
Just under the watchful eye of a large number of Xixia cavalry, if you throw away the cart used to defend against cavalry attacks, isn't that looking for death?
Finally, the night before yesterday, Ma Kuo, Lao Hei, Da Yu, Wu soldiers, and officers from the army regiment and above were added.
After some deliberation, everyone simply made a decision: since they couldn't enter the city, they simply wouldn't enter the city.
Directly form a formation and hold on in place, echoing the Zhejia army in Xinqin City from a distance.
Once the Xixia people attacked the city, they sent some troops to take the initiative to share the pressure on the city and strengthen the city's confidence.
Then it was just a matter of waiting, waiting for the results of the Battle of Yanjing to be announced.
If Hu Biao and his Northern Expedition army were defeated, of course everything would stop and everyone would just finish the job together.
But if the Northern Expedition army wins, then these Xixia people in front of them, if they don't want to all die under the city, will return to their hometowns honestly.
Anyway, they have enough food, medicine, and fixed ammunition on the cart to last at least half a month.
Based on such a decision, starting from yesterday, every time the Xixia people attacked the city.
The Third Army will dispatch one or two regiments of troops to launch a diversionary attack from behind the Xixia people.
The effect of this response was actually quite good, which made the Xixia people a little concerned about one thing and the other. The morale of the soldiers and civilians in the city also increased greatly. After a bloody battle, the Xixia people did not even climb the city wall twice.
But starting from this morning, the tactics of these Xixia people changed.
The main force of the attack was turned to their third army, with the intention of annihilating this supporting army first and then turning back to attack the city again.
It has to be said that after the Xixia people changed their tactics, Lao Hei's situation became difficult.
Because they were worried about being knocked open by the Xixia people, all the gates of Xinqin City had long been completely blocked. Even if the Zhejia Army wanted to go out of the city to provide support, they couldn't do it for a while.
Suddenly, the pressure on Lao Hei and the others seemed a bit huge. How could they have the time and energy to take care of some small things that would not kill people...
"These have forgotten their ancestors and are serving as your servants. They will eat an arrow from your grandfather~"
At the moment when he cursed such a sentence, Zhang Dabang, the former well-known hero on Funiu Mountain, was now the volunteer division of the New Army of the Song Dynasty and the acting company commander at Dutou level.
After pulling out the step bow with one stone in his hand, he shot a Xixia man into the mouth of a Xixia man with just one arrow, which made him feel heartbroken on the spot.
Suddenly, a second ago, he was still wearing a piece of tattered armor and holding a rusty long knife in his hand, rushing forward with all his strength to hit the young man.
There was a complex expression on his face of pain, despair, relief, etc. It can be said that there was some conflict. He fell to the ground and lost his life.
Because this so-called bumping son was originally a Han captured by the Xixia people at the border.
After being captured by the Xixia bandits, he moved to Guazhou in the rear and lived for a few years. After he lost some of his longing for his homeland, he was drafted into the army and became such a son-in-law.
That is to say, in every battle, the cannon fodder is driven down to the front.
Therefore, there is an essential difference between these young masters and the hardcore traitors under Yanjing City.
It is a pity that Zhang Dabang and other inner warriors no longer care about this; because today is already noon on the 29th.
From the start of the battle yesterday to now, even he couldn't remember how many times these Xixia people had launched attacks on the car formation.
All he could remember was the almost unchanged fighting style of these Xixia people.
As long as a certain gap is opened by these young men, the main force of the Xixia infantry behind them, the "Qisheng Army", and even the more elite "Hengshan Buzi" will rush in one after another.
Often without losing a hundred or even more brothers, they would not be able to repel these Xixia people.
Is this why? Zhang Dabang, who originally only had to fight hand-to-hand, is now holding a walking bow and constantly firing it.
I didn't want to supplement the long-range firepower in the car array, otherwise facing the Xixia people who rushed up like crazy, relying solely on the musketry firepower of the musketeers was already somewhat insufficient.
After shooting thirteen or four arrows in succession, Zhang Dabang ignored the soreness and numbness in his arm and quickly took out a fine steel arrow in his hand.
Before he even had time to put on the bow string and start shooting, he suddenly heard an exclamation in his ear: "No! Open your head, there are several places on the right, those Xixia people are coming in again."
After hearing such a sentence, Zhang Dabang did not dare to delay at all.
He threw down the bow and arrow in his hand, drew out his usual ghost-headed sword with his backhand, and at the same time shouted: "Brothers from the fourth company, come with me and kill these Western Xia dogs."
After saying that, he took the ghost-headed sword with two or three rice grain-sized gaps on the blade and killed towards the left.
It was also at this time that he discovered that the Xixia people who came in this time were actually the elite infantry soldiers of the Xixia people like Hengshan Bubazi.
These Hengshan Bubazi are all composed of Qiang people in the Hengshan area, and their number is actually not large in the Xixia army.
Under normal circumstances, the Xixia people are usually thrown into mountain battles, but this does not mean that these people are not strong enough to fight in plain areas.
Even though they are wearing heavy armor, their flexibility is quite amazing.
Especially in close combat, when three musketeers with bayonets and muskets form a formation, they are no match for one of them.
But even so, Zhang Dabang, who has the nickname "Black King Kong", rushed forward.
He slashed in front of him with a knife, and with the brute strength of his arm, he knocked the iron whip out of the hand of a Hengshan Buzi.
Then with a single stroke of his knife, he chopped off a head that was covered in weather and oil, causing Lao Gao to fly into the air.
A stream of hot blood spurted out from his head-less neck, turning half of Zhang Dabang's face red on the spot.
Instinctively, Zhang Dabang stuck out his tongue and licked it. He was surprised to find that the blood of these Hengshan Qiang people seemed to have a sheep smell...
About a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Dabang skillfully used a roll of clean gauze to wrap up the wound on his left shoulder that had just been covered with white medicine.
Hengshan Bubazi and these elite Xixia people are really powerful. In order to kill the 134 people who just rushed into the car formation.
These heroes, who came from three mountains and five mountains, had to pay more than a dozen casualties. Even he was slashed on the shoulder by one of the leaders.
Just when Zhang Dabang was treating the wound by himself because the hygienist was too busy, suddenly a messenger rushed over.
The one that came out of his mouth was, I don't know whether it was good or bad news: "Deputy Company Commander Zhang, the division headquarters has ordered that from now on, you will act as the acting battalion commander of the second battalion."
In less than two days, Zhang Dabang heard such an order for the second time.
The last time was yesterday afternoon. After the commander of their fourth company was killed in battle, he, the deputy company commander, received a similar order and was immediately promoted to a higher rank.
So after hearing this, Zhang Dabang, out of concern for the old battalion commander, just said: "What's wrong with battalion commander Zhu?"
"He died. He was hit on the head by a Xixia man with a meteor hammer. The Tianling Cap was smashed to pieces at that time." After hearing this, the messenger told the news with bitterness in his mouth.
Even when he asked this question, Zhang Dabang was already mentally prepared.
But after hearing such an answer, my heart was still full of pain, and there was no trace of joy that I had been promoted to another level.
What the heck! What's so happy about that?
Because until now, the Xixia cavalry, especially those "iron kites", have basically not been dispatched.
Under the infantry attack alone, the Third Army suffered heavy casualties, with the number of casualties reaching 10,000.
If we really have to wait until the Xixia people send out cavalry, the situation will only become more difficult.
Therefore, how could Zhang Dabang be happy when he was not even sure whether he could survive to the end...
