Two Song Dynasty cavalry were entering a deserted land in the densely packed army of Western Xia.

However, Wang Yuan had to order a retreat.

The Xixia army had too many people and could not escape. If there were only 20,000 to 30,000 people, after this fire, another attack would cause the Xixia army to be defeated and fled. However, although more than 100,000 people killed many people, the number of people was still large. Seeing that the Song army did not destroy them, some generals calmed down and began to command the chaotic army to gather again.

At this time, you can still make some cheaper things. The key is not exchange. In the end, you will have fewer and fewer subordinates, and you cannot defeat the Xixia people. Who will defend the city?

I stopped when I saw it was good and retreated.

Zhang Fangping personally welcomed the city gate and was very pleased.

More than 200 soldiers were sacrificed in this battle, and three or four hundred people were injured in varying degrees of injury. But compared to the enemy's losses, this casualty was really nothing. I don't know how many Xixia people were killed, and I don't know how many Xixia people died or were burned to death due to trampling on each other. On this chaotic night, there was no ten thousand people, and at least three or four thousand Xixia soldiers were killed. The key is supplies. I don't know how many supplies were burned by a fire, but it would cause heavy losses to the Xixia materials.

After the war, Zheng Lang was still a little heartbroken. A fire achieved results, but it made more than fifty mountains and more than seventy forests affected. It was not until dawn that the wind calmed down and the fire gradually diminished. Otherwise, more forests would burn.

Yuan Hao was so angry that he was angry, but the fire also made him judge that Zheng Lang was not in this city.

If there were so many dangers in this city just now, I still don’t know how many Song troops would rush over, and then I would be defeated and returned.

But there are "experts" in the city.

It was really miserable to gather the terrified army. At least one-third of the food and grass were burned, and tents, clothes and other supplies were all lost.

It was dawn and the fire was already burning to the wind. This time, I was absolutely safe to stay on those mountains. But Yuan Hao looked at the desolate look and was so angry that his whole body trembled. He said angrily: "Siege."

Siege equipment was also burned a lot.

He gathered 20,000 people and forcibly attacked Pengyang City. He dared to think of Pengyang City as Fengzhou to vent his anger.

However, Zheng Lang deliberately stayed in Pengyang. How could Pengyang suffer the fate of Fengzhou? There are so many people, not many, but there are other arrangements...

The dense army roared and there were many people, so Zhang Fangping ordered on the top of the city to throw gunpowder bags or stones together. But this time, the Xixia people were more or less prepared and saw something falling in the sky. They hurriedly dodged.

They rushed to the city one after another, and then welcomed the bows and arrows and rolling wooden stones on the top of the city. But the victory was due to the large number of people, and the same was true for the capture of Fengzhou City. Although Fengzhou was very prepared and there were too few soldiers guarding the city, the Xixia people finally attacked the city and took down Fengzhou City.

This time, the same trick happened again.

They put up ladders one after another and were shot to death by the Song army one after another. But more ladders were put up.

Zhang Fangping held the drum with his hands and thumped three times.

The pole that Yuan Hao saw officially appeared.

It's not a pole, but a pole-especial spear.

Zheng Lang used a fake version of the Chrono Formation in Sanchuankou, which was used for some use. Later, when he arranged the Pengyang City, he thought of the Chrono Formation. So he used the principles of the Chrono Formation and the pendulum to make this arrangement. He made more holes above the city wall, and there were spears hidden in the holes. However, because it was long and the force was not strong enough to sprint out, it often allowed the enemy soldiers to cut off the spear. Therefore, he came up with a way to lay many fences on the walls in the original old wall. Then build a soil wall more than one meter high to increase the thickness of the city wall. This is one of the functions and another function.

A horizontal tree is tied above the fence, and it is close to the outer city wall. Yuan Hao cannot see it on the top of the mountain. The rope is hung with a spear, so that the spear can be suspended in the air and reduce the resistance to impact. There is no need for soldiers during the battle, as long as ordinary people, even women can. Use the protection of the outer city wall to hit the inner end of the spear with an iron hammer. The spear can be shot out quickly. The principle of pendulum. Even if the enemy is stabbed, it can swing back quickly unless it is clamped into the armor. One person catches the spear, so that the spear tip is protected in the hole and prevents the enemy from grasping it. Then hit with a hammer.

There is no outside situation behind the city wall, but some of it can be seen in the hole, and there are also soldiers on the top of the city commanding.

It is not without flaws. It is only suitable for earthen walls. It has long been a long time, which is not conducive to the solidity of the city walls. There are still many strategies to crack them. But strictly speaking, this is the first time in history that someone has used this tactic, and it is also a way to bully the Xixia people and not good at siegeing the city. If the Song army came, there were at least five ways to resolve it.

But dealing with the people of Xixia is enough.

Under the command of the soldiers on the top of the city, sharp spears were hit by iron hammers. The end was powerful, and some people were powerful, and they could actually make the spears penetrate the bodies of soldiers who climbed the ladders in Xixia. The consequences were not great. The spears could not be removed, and the dead were abandoned. Some Xixia people were penetrated by spears and were still alive. They were both painful and afraid and stood on the city wall and shouted desperately. In the blink of an eye, Pengyang City became a hedgehog covered with thorns.

With just one wave of attacks, Xixia threw away nearly a thousand corpses and was defeated in a panic.

It will definitely be able to break through, but if you continue to attack like this, you will not be able to take down this city without a pile of ten thousand people.

The subordinates retreated, and there were still people. Those people hung on the spear, and the Song army ignored them and let them shout. Yuan Hao was so angry that he was trembling and prepared to order an attack again.

Xu Minzong advised: "Your Majesty, don't act loyally."

You can't play like this. Needless to say, Zheng Lang is not in this city. There are still tens of thousands of troops on Jingyuan Road. If it is delayed, Huanqing Road and Qinfeng Road can send at least 30,000 troops to help. This is not a big deal. No matter how you send, the three routes of people can only use *10,000, most of them are infantry. Even if you can barely fight with yourself, Xixia has other arrangements.

It is mainly Xiazhou. Where is the old nest of the Xixia people? Pang Ji is conservative in military policies, but the longer he fights, he is not allowed to learn from Zheng Lang. He will come to the Xiayin state to add icing on the cake to his achievements, or to add the biggest peony flowers.

A tactful advice was made.

Yuan Hao asked, "Yang Qing, what do you think you should do?"

"The Tucheng was destroyed, and Ge Huaimin's army was the main force."

"According to your advice."

I started camping again, and the fire burned to confirm that there would be no terrible gunpowder under the ground. I rest assured to set up a camp in front of Pengyang City. There were still too many people, and some were forced to bury on the south mountain behind again.

Yuan Hao ordered the soldiers to start picking soil to make mountains. At this time, the soil was not frozen and there were many people, so it was easy to pick soil. After a fire, Yuan Hao discovered a benefit. Without the protection of the mountains and forests, the scouts of the Song Dynasty would no longer dare to approach his camp. He also divided half of the troops to wander around.

The attack was Pengyang City to the east of Zhenrong Village, but Yuan Hao stared at Dibei City to the west.

As for the more than 2,000 Song troops in Pengyang City, Yuan Hao had long regarded them as dead people.

There is also no worries in Pengyang City.

The method of picking a mountain of earth is clumsy, but it is more effective. Press the mountain of earth into the city of Pengyang step by step, connect it with Pengyang City, and climb directly to the top of the city from the mountain of earth. Pengyang City will be completely lost. Yuanhao also sent people to shout outside the city from time to time, surrender and not kill, which made some ordinary people in the city panic. Don’t completely believe these people, they were originally living in the cracks of several countries. Survival is the most important thing for them. As for what the country is, there may not be many people concerned.

Although Zhang Fangping told the story of Yuanhao Yak City, many people believed or doubted.

Standing at Zhang Fangping's height, naturally, they will not be angry with the short-sightedness of these ordinary people. What else can they ask for when they live just to survive? Yak City is too far away for them.

There is no way. Call Brother Wang Zhi again.

The three of them found ways to resolve the earthen mountain, and Wang Zhi asked: "What are the stories that have the most successful offensive and defensive battles since ancient times?"

Zhang Fangping still understood history, so he talked about many examples of war. Especially Guo Ziyi fought in Taiyuan. Wang Yuan said: "We also dig tunnels."

"Dig a tunnel?" Zhang Fangping asked suspiciously. Suddenly, a light appeared in his eyes.

After the inspiration was obtained, the three of them discussed the specific implementation for more than a long time.

At this time, Pengyang City lacked soldiers, but there was no shortage of supplies. Not only were there sufficient food, but there were also sufficient weapons, including gunpowder. He quietly sent people to dig tunnels, and the Ming Dynasty set up a high tower in the city. Several high towers were built and soldiers were sent to stand on it and shoot arrows on the earthen mountain from a high place.

The effect was not great. The Xixia people used shields to protect the earthen mountain. The soldiers kept picking up the soil. They poured to the top of the mountain and poured north. The earthen mountain became higher and higher and closer to the city wall. After three days, Xixia sacrificed hundreds of soldiers under the shooting of various weapons of the Song Dynasty. However, the earthen mountain began to rise above the top of the Pengyang city. The Xixia people stood on the top of the mountain and shot against the Song army. They did not get any benefits for the time being, but the speed of the construction of the earthen mountain was faster.

The situation in Pengyang City was critical, so Yuanhao sent people to the mountain to shout, "Surrender quickly." The day when those who do not surrender break the city is the time to massacre the city.

The city was even more panicked, and Zhang Fangping said: "Let it end tonight."

Wang Zhi was a little hesitant. If he wanted to have a good effect, it would be better to have two days later. After Tushan and Pengyang City were connected one after another, the Xixia people launched a general attack on Pengyang City and could kill more enemies. From the overall strategy, the longer the delay, the more beneficial it would be to the arrangements in other places. But considering the morale of the people in the city, he was afraid of accidents, so he nodded.

The plan is not complicated. Only one tunnel is dug directly to the bottom of the earth mountain. The project volume is not large. Then some wooden frames are built at the bottom of the earth mountain. There are many enemies who pick the earth, and if they don’t build the wooden frame, they will be trampled soon. Then they dig into a hollow, concentrate the gunpowder and bury it below. Then the enemy’s plan will be declared failure. Without the force of the earth mountain, will the people of Xixia dare to attack Pengyang City?

It can be conquered, but the price is that Yuan Hao can afford it?

After nightfall, Wang Yuan personally led more than 300 people into the tunnel and quietly transported the soil out. There was no way, the people of Xixia were building Tushan day and night. The top of the mountain was almost higher than the top of the city. Standing on the top of the mountain, you could see some of the situation inside the city.

Taking advantage of the dark night at the end of the month, we moved the mud along the corner of the wall to the inner wall, and when we raised the inner wall, gradually we took out a hole under the earth mountain, built a frame with wood, and transported the gunpowder bag in. When Shimenchuan was arranged, Wang Yuan stood beside Zheng Lang and watched.

There was no such condition, but they bought their animal skins from the people, prepared some oil paper, sealed them layer by layer, and then introduced them into the city with tubes. The tunnel was blocked to death, and a group of mermaids came out one after another.

What made Yuanhao feel the most was the next day.

Zhang Fangping gathered the army in the city, and there was a mountain outside the city to see it. The scout reported the news to Yuan Hao. Yuan Hao's first reaction was to break through the encirclement, and the theory worked. Although the city had few troops, they were all cavalry. As long as they broke through the encirclement, their speed would not be at a disadvantage. What should the rest of the people do? Even the city walls could not be protected, let alone the people?

The order was prepared to prevent a soldier from breaking out in the city. A fire from Longshan burned him torture.

Zhang Fangping in the city is doing mobilization work.

He is also an important minister on Jingyuan Road, and seems to have a good relationship with Zheng Lang. His words are authoritative. After some support, his morale is slightly boosted. Leave the rest to the brothers Wang Zhi. Do you still have to fight in person? It is impossible. If he gets on horseback, he will scare Wang Zhi to death. When he comes to the front line in person, he has already played a role in boosting morale.

However, the soldiers in the city have considerable combat power, and most of them are composed of foreign soldiers and generals.

After the support was completed, people were plugged in earplugs, and Masai Marseille.

It is different from the Shimenchuan layout. It is not sealed enough, but nearly 10,000 kilograms of gunpowder are buried under it. It should be powerful. This is another arrangement that Shihu had previously expected. However, after this explosion, there was no more gunpowder in the city to be available. Take it out and put it under the earthen mountain.

But it was not Fengzhou City. After four or five months of hard fighting on Fulin Road, I couldn't see how many reinforcements the court sent to arrive. I didn't have to hold on for so many days, which was also a place where Zhang Fangping was at peace.

The sun is rising slowly, and the red sun spreads a layer of warmth to the earth.

The people of Xixia calmly ate breakfast and started to come out to pick up the earthen mountains again. They were still a distance from the city wall. But according to this progress, it was only two or three days. Some soldiers threatened the city with their might.

Zhang Fangping climbed to the top of the city, looked at it, and gave an order, and began to shoot arrows from the tower.

Thousands of arrows were fired at the tower and the city. As the earth mountain grew higher and higher and did not gain an advantage, many Xixia people also started to fight back when they stood on the mountain. In the rain of arrows, both sides suffered casualties. Zhang Fangping pressed down the flag in his hand. Wang Yuan carefully ignited the gunpowder fuse.

This is the first time Zhang Fangping has seen the power of a large number of gunpowder gathering together. Although he has stuffed his ears with his cloth balls, he has heard about it. He clasped his hands tightly against the wall, regardless of whether there were arrows outside.

A loud noise came out.

The soil in Tushan exploded the chicken coop and threw it up like chicken feathers. Many soldiers standing on Tushan were thrown to a height of several meters. Some actually landed in Pengyang Village. Yuan Hao stood behind to watch, making the sound of thunderous sound that made his ears faintly, and he couldn't hear the left and right speeches clearly for a long time.

With just one sound, the earthen mountain disappeared, leaving only a deep pit on the ground. At least two or three hundred soldiers were blown to death, and no one was killed. They also lay on the ground and dared not move. The loud noise caused continuous consequences. Many war horses were frightened, broke free from the ropes, and rushed wildly in the camp.

Zhang Fangping did not fall well either. Two pieces of mud fell down in a row, which hit his body. Fortunately, it was wet mud, not big, and was not seriously injured. He struggled to stand up with his head covered with mud, waved the red flag in his hand again, and the village gate opened. Wang Zhi and Wang Yuan led their troops out, and there were still hundreds of steps to the camp in Xixia, but there were many Xixia soldiers picking earth in the middle area, almost unarmed. Some of them covered their heads and saw the Song army coming out, but they didn't know what to do, and they stood there blankly. Some were clever and saw that it was not good, so they ran to the back camp.

This is the function of closing the book on military books.

His own people retreated and stormed his camp, which instead gave the enemy a chance to rush.

Moreover, this explosion also shocked many Xixia people, which just gave Wang Zhi the biggest fighter.

He rode his horse and chased him all the way until the Xixia camp. He attacked and almost reached the central camp. Seeing that the enemy soldiers in the rear became thicker and thicker, Wang Yuan said with a group of horses: "Retreat."

Retreat calmly, and took out the opportunity to recover from hundreds of people halfway, fleeing back to the Xixia people, and then calmly entered the city.

Yuan Hao lost his soul.

The 120,000 army was in high spirits and attacked a Pengyang village. The enemy soldiers faced only more than 2,000 enemy soldiers. The city walls remained unmoved until now. They sacrificed five or six thousand soldiers and lost one-third of their supplies. Yuan Hao looked at Pengyang City in tears, and said in frustration: "Retreat."

I don't want this village anymore.

It’s not that I’m afraid of fighting, but there are some factors, but mainly because a bigger battle is about to begin, Xiangjiaxia! Is it true that we won’t play with you?
