Wei Ge Ningling's plan was successful. Guo En's five pieces of broken body were still hung at the entrance of the military camp, frozen to death in the cold air of early winter. As the heavy snow fell, the five pieces of Guo En's body were covered with white snow again.
It looks very much like the frozen meat that farmers in northwest China hang on their doorsteps waiting for the Chinese New Year.
After receiving 6,000 tons of grain and a large number of weapons from the Song people, the Chaoshun Army Division in the right wing finally looked like a military camp.
Even so, after the heavy snow fell, it still brought a very serious disaster to this army. Because of the lack of winter clothes, Wei Ge Ningling could only lead the army to huddle in the military camp and tremble.
Xiao Dahu invited the Shun Army Division in the right wing to attack Hequ City in the Song Dynasty, and promised to give the city to Wei Ge Ning Ling as a foothold.
This promise made Wei Ge Ning Ling ecstatic for a time. If Hequ City could really be captured, the Junjun Division of the Youxiang Dynasty would have a real way to survive, unlike the dead Song man who seemed to have given
A way to survive is actually a way to die and never die again.
There were only 6,000 people in the city opposite. After Wei Ge Ning Ling learned this information, he knelt down and worshiped in front of his ancestor's soul for a whole night, sincerely thanking his ancestor for having a spirit and giving future generations a way to live.
Ge Ningling, the rich councilor of Hequ City, has long heard that the city stores 700,000 dans of grain alone. Did you even hear that all the ordnance needed for Yunzheng's Northern Expedition is stored here. As long as this city is conquered
City, he can revive the prestige of Chaoshun Army Division in the right wing in the shortest time, and one day he will have the fundamental strength to compete with Wu Zangyu Pang.
Six thousand Song troops were nothing in his eyes. Back in the days of Haoshuichuan, facing a hundred thousand Song troops, he and his eldest brother Li Yuanhao were able to rush north and south in the midst of thousands of troops, crossing the east and west. Han Qi, Fu
Bi Jie was a talent chosen by the Song Dynasty, and he was inevitably defeated in the battle of Haoshuichuan. Therefore, he did not pay attention to the 6,000 Song troops in Hequ City. Instead, he believed that this was Yun Zheng's military arrangement.
A huge mistake.
Song people are always so self-righteous. Do they really think that they can join Xixia's mortal enemy in order to survive?
The heavy snow has cleared, the sun is shining on the snow, the biting cold wind is biting, and the Yellow River has been frozen beneath our feet. We have sent people to test it last night. The cold wind in the past few days has completely frozen the river. Looking around
, the Song army on the other side of the river actually formed a formation there, instead of hiding behind the tall city wall and trembling.
Wei Ge Ning Ling only felt that his blood was boiling all over and he could not feel the slightest chill. In order to fight today, he took off his fox fur. There was only a thin layer of linen under the armor. Even so, he still felt hot all over.
It would take another five days for Xiao Dahu's army to arrive from Xijing, but Wei Ge Ningling could not wait a day longer. The increasingly cold weather forced him to capture Hequ City as soon as possible.
What's more, Wei Ge Ningling didn't think that the Liao people would sincerely help him. Yun Zheng was a fierce tiger, so Xiao Dahu was a man-eating wolf to him. If the Liao people could reach Hequ City before the Liao people arrived,
By capturing the city before, Wei Ge Ning Ling's reputation will spread far and wide.
Tan Wei stood on the opposite side of the Yellow River and looked at the Xixia people across the Yellow River in confusion. He could not understand why more than 10,000 Xixia remnants dared to attack Hequ City. Such a challenge already made him feel very strange.
.
At its peak, Hequ City's army only had 16,000 men. It was by relying on these 16,000 men that the army regained Shenwu City and Shuozhou.
The encroachment of the Song people could only be defeated step by step.
Over the past few days, Tan Wei has made it very clear about the origin and combat power of the army opposite him. This is an army that has been forgotten by the Xixia people. Whether it is morale, equipment, or combat power, it has been completely destroyed.
lost.
After he knew that Wei Ge Ning had killed Guo En, he was ready to accept the commander's order to cross the river and crush the army. Unexpectedly, before he could cross the river, they had already come to his door.
Looking at the new boots on his feet, Tan Wei was not going to run to the ice to fight with the Xixia people today. The 340 eight-oxen crossbows guarding the river were enough to stop these Xixia people on the ice of the Yellow River.
The soldiers quickly set up a tent by the river. Tan Wei asked the soldiers to remove the side of the tent facing the Yellow River so that he could observe the enemy's situation more easily.
Taking one last look at Hai Dongqing, who was flying in circles in the sky in boredom, Tan Wei got into the small tent, warming himself by the fire and listening to the heart-rending roars of Wei Ge Ning Ling on the other side of the Yellow River.
"We have been imprisoned at Gunzhongkou for more than eight years, and our relatives have been enslaved at the foot of Black Mountain. They should have been the most noble people in our country, but now they have to take whips to fight for their lives.
Tibetan Pang is grazing cattle and sheep!
Wu Zangying Pang wants to let Song Guo kill us, bah! He is dreaming! Song Gou wants us to surrender, bah! How can my dignified descendants of Canglang be humiliated by Song Gou.
Yun Zheng is just a kid with a yellow mouth. He thought we would surrender obediently, but he didn't know that the name of "Shunjunjunsi" on the right side of me was given by the late emperor. We would rather die than surrender to Song Gou!
Now, the city in front of us has everything we need, and it is guarded by only six thousand Song dogs.
Descendants of Canglang, as long as we capture this city, Chaoshun Army Division in the right wing will once again become our strongest army in Great Xia, and we will personally take back our robbed glory.
Now, rush!"
The totem of the Xixia people is an image of a ferocious mother, with a pair of huge breasts occupying half of the totem, which represents that the mother god nurtures everyone on this earth.
The mother's back is slightly curved, as if she is lifting something, her big fat feet are stepping on the solid ground, and her hands seem to be guarding something. This reminds people of a mother who stands upright, endures hardships, and endures humiliation and burden.
The mother's face on the totem is extremely ferocious, with a green face and fangs, and she seems to be fighting. Therefore, when the Xixia warriors fought, they thought that they were fighting bravely with their mother. Even if they died, they would just return to their mother's arms.
The dead Guo En brought food, swords and guns to Wei Ge Ningling, but did not bring him the winter clothes and siege equipment they urgently needed. This was the only thing Guo En did against him in this incident.
Therefore, Zhang He, the deputy general of the Chaoshun Army Division in the right wing who led the army on the expedition, could only lead the soldiers onto the ice with bundles of wheat straw. Not only did they have to charge, but they also had to pave a way for the soldiers who followed.
Come out, otherwise, the leather boots will step on the slippery ice, and you will not be able to march quickly at all.
It's not that they didn't see the Eight Ox Crossbows on the other side of the river, they just tried not to think about it. Everyone walked steadily on the ice, hoping to overwhelm the Song Dynasty's Yellow River defense line, and then the Song Dynasty's Hequ city defense, and finally
To achieve a simple victory, everyone hopes that the thick arrows of the Eight Ox Crossbow will not hit themselves.
The Shun Army Division on the right side has no way out.
Tan Wei had not seen such a swarm of charges for a long time. At least in the past two years, he had never seen that army dare to charge at his own army with a simple shield.
Those armies that did this in the past were either completely wiped out or completely disabled by the intensive crossbows and gunpowder shells. After seeing the Song army's intensive long-distance attacks, no army would use such a charging method again.
nothing.
Seeing such a charging method, Tan Wei remembered that this was an army that had been imprisoned for nearly ten years, and the outside world was extremely strange to him.
Groups of scouts kept reporting back. Within a radius of fifty miles, only the right side of the Chaoshun Army Division was on the opposite side. Hai Dongqing in the sky did not see other troops on the vast snow. Therefore, Tan Wei looked at
When those Hai Dongqing began to swoop down to catch the rabbits in the snow, they were completely relieved. They just ordered the three thousand subordinates in the city to take the people in the city to guard the city firmly and ignore the Yellow River.
The battle on the shore.
There are ninety-nine bends in the Yellow River in the world, and it naturally turns a bend in the meander. The water flow here is gentle, so it will freeze as soon as winter comes. The river will not open until the peach blossoms in the lower reaches of the Yellow River are in full bloom. Those huge ice blocks will sometimes block it.
The river turned into a terrifying peach blossom flood.
Sometimes, in order to prevent the lower reaches of the Yellow River from being harmed by Taohuaxun, the imperial court would ask Hequ City to completely explode the river surface here and turn the large ice surfaces into small pieces of crushed ice. Tan Wei has done this kind of work three times.
It's been a year.
The main reason why Lang Tanzhi confidently and boldly led most of the soldiers in the city to leave this important city gate was that the city was almost invincible in winter. Those seemingly flat ice surfaces were
Under the bombardment of gunpowder bombs, it will soon turn into a huge man-eating mouth.
Tan Wei naturally knew the principle of attacking halfway across the river. Just when those Xixia people thought they had frightened the Song army on the opposite side, there was a sound of cracking silk, and more than 300 eight-oxen crossbows were fired at the same time. The long crossbows
Like a flying wall, it rushed towards the ice from this side of the Yellow River.
The Eight Ox Crossbow is the long-range weapon that the Jingxi Army is best at. After the soldiers shot the first set of arrows, they began to load the second set of arrows without even looking at where the arrows were going.
The simple wooden shields in the hands of the Liao people shattered as soon as they came into contact with the arrows. The thick crossbow shot through the shield and the soldier's body, and then passed out of the soldier's body, and then hit other soldiers.
The pawn's body consumes its own kinetic energy.
The lying soldier was lucky. Hearing the strange scream of the crossbow passing over his head, and watching his comrade turn from a living person into a pile of minced meat, he could only scream wildly.
With a cry, I wish I could dig a hole in the ice and bury myself in it. (To be continued)
