In the rear formation of the Song army, Zhao Ji, who was supervising the battle, gave Liu Guangshi a telescope, and then asked the Imperial City Secretary to take the telescope, put it in front of his eyes, and look at the enemy city.

This made Liu Guangshi envious. The Zhao Guan family had so many "clairvoyance" treasures!

Zhao Ji saw that when the thirty cavalry gunners of the Imperial City Division Musketeers he sent, riding fast horses and carrying long spears, rushed to the bank of the moat below the enemy city, the Xixia Pu King Li Renzhong on the enemy city was not too surprised.

Although he didn't care, he still stood at the crenellation of the tower.

At that time, Zhao Ji secretly thought: "This is about to happen!"

In fact, it is not surprising that Li Renzhong did not take precautions in advance to avoid the gunfire.

The key is that in this kind of war in the cold weapon era, if the second batch of thirty cavalrymen coming from the city think with consistent thinking, even if they shoot arrows with crossbows, they will never be able to hit Li Renzhong.

On my body.

Therefore, Pu Wang Li Renzhong thought that these two groups of thirty cavalrymen sent by the Song Army were just like the first group of cavalry, and they were here to persuade him and the Xia army guarding the city to surrender or scold him!

While he stood majestically at the crenellation of the city tower, he directed his Xia army archers to wait for the enemy cavalry to get closer, and then fire several arrows...

Li Renzhong finally saw that the second batch of Song Army cavalry was approaching the moat below the city. He just ordered the archers to try to see if they could shoot the Song Army cavalry under the city from such a distance.

Suddenly, he saw the second group of Song Army cavalry on the other side of the moat below the city. Thirty people were riding on horses. Together they raised unknown weapons that they had just carried with one hand, similar to "fire sticks".

"Bang, bang, bang..."

"Bang, bang, bang..."

Before Li Renzhong lost consciousness, he saw the small round holes at the front ends of thirty "fire sticks" emitting dazzling firelight and terrifying wisps of gunpowder smoke...

"ah?!"

Before Li Renzhong could make any evasive reaction, he felt multiple severe pains coming from his face and upper body...

He wanted to grit his teeth and insist on commanding, but the multiple gunshot wounds to his face and upper body caused him to lose excessive blood in an instant. The severe pain caused his body to convulse, and his mind went blank.

With a "plop", Li Renzhong's vision went dark and he fell onto the tower.

Several generals around him, as well as several party guards behind him, were also hit to varying degrees by the shotguns ejected from the Song Army's gunfire, and fell to the ground.

Suddenly, a thick layer of blood flowed on the ground of the tower.

At this time, there was a huge chaos upstairs in the east city of Xijing...

The archers of the Xia army on the city fired their bows and arrows at the Song army on the other side of the moat below the city. However, the distance was too far. In addition, they had obtained the order of Zhao Guan's family and fired at the man wearing a four-clawed python robe on the city tower.

Withdraw, don't be wary.

Therefore, the Xia army in Dongcheng counterattacked the arrows of Zhao Ji's imperial musket squad, but did not harm them at all...

Zhao Ji, who was in the rear position of the Song army, used binoculars to watch the whole process of this cold shooting.

After he watched the wonderful moment of Xixia Pu King Li Renzhong being shot and falling to the ground, he smiled slightly, put down the monocular and sighed:

"I gave you Li Renzhong the opportunity to abandon the secret and surrender to the light, but you didn't seize it. You also asked the Xia army's archers to shoot cold arrows at my cavalry squad who shouted to persuade me to surrender. Now, Li Renzhong, you have been shot in many places. Even if you don't die, you will be seriously injured.

What a tragedy! The morale of the troops in the enemy city will be shaken even more, and their morale will also be even lower."

Liu Guangshi, who also put down his telescope, was so impressed that he flattered:

"What the official sage said is absolutely true!"

"In response to the official report, Wei Chen Guangshi suggested that when the enemy city's commander was shot and fell to the ground, the defenders on the east city of Xia Xijing were in chaos. At this time, we mobilized several armies from the Song Dynasty to attack the enemy city in one go.

And destroy the city."

Yue Fei on the side had a different opinion and said hurriedly:

"After reporting to the officials, Chen Fei did not agree with General Liu's words. Chen Fei believed that we should still follow the policy decided by the officials when discussing matters in the tent. After our army's ammunition supplies are delivered, we can bombard the enemy's Xijing City. If we can

Comprehensively crushing the Xixia defenders will further reduce the casualties suffered by our army during the siege."

Zhao Ji nodded in agreement and said: "Peng Ju's words are exactly what I want."

Liu Guangshi had a look of shame on his face. He felt that he had not figured out the thoughts of Zhao Guanjia, which was why he was frustrated just now.

This was because he had never really seen the huge power of artillery bombardment mentioned by Zhao Guanjia and Yue Fei so far, so he mistakenly thought that this was a good opportunity to attack the city.

Zhao Ji ordered Yue Fei and Liu Guangshi to lead their troops and continue to escort Brother Richard to the Xia Kingdom's North City Gate for a demonstration in order to undermine the morale of the Xia enemy defenders...

He ordered: "Pengju, Uncle Ping, before our army launches a general attack on the enemy's Xijing City, you two will lead your troops to escort Brother Richard and parade outside the enemy's city every day during the day."

"At night, I will send troops to pretend to attack and harass the enemy defending the city, so as to tire out the enemy. When you show the captured brother Richard to the enemy, you can also whip him, just don't beat him to death, so as to disintegrate him.

Enemy morale."

"I obey the decree!" After Liu Guangshi heard the edict, he was more excited than Yue Fei because he had not whipped Brother Richard like Yue Fei and Han Shizhong.

For Liu Guangshi, if he could be like Generals Yue and Han, whipping Brother Richard, the first god of war in Great Xia and the head coach of the Iron Kites Army, it would be enough for him to brag about for the rest of his life.

Zhao Jiqi drove back to the camp...

Yue Fei and Liu Guangshi also led the troops to escort Brother Richard, who was tied to the carriage, to the outside of the North City of Xiping Prefecture in Xijing, Daxia, preparing to continue the parade in order to undermine the morale of the Xia troops defending the city...

…

"Song's enemies have retreated!"

"The enemies of the Song Dynasty have retreated..." Cheers rang out from the east city of Xijing in Daxia.

Just now, they had experienced the pain of seeing their commander, King Pu, being shot and fell by the soldiers, and they were still frightened at this time.

In a panic, they were preparing to fight desperately against the Song army's next attack on the city. However, what they didn't expect was that the Song army outside the east city actually retreated.

Upstairs in the East City, the still-living guards urgently called for the military doctors accompanying the army to quickly come and treat Pu Wang Li Renzhong...

After the four military doctors climbed up the tower panting, they saw a tragic and bloody scene they had never seen before, which was unforgettable for them and would never be forgotten.

Their two military doctors with the best traditional Chinese medicine skills immediately carried medicine boxes and squatted next to the unconscious Li Renzhong, checking the injuries and trying to stop the bleeding...

The other two military doctors hurriedly went to treat more than a dozen people on the tower who were still breathing after being shot...

The enemy of the Song Dynasty launched a cold attack at the bottom of the city, killing four generals standing next to Li Renzhong on the Xijing tower and eight guards behind him.

Li Renzhong was shot in multiple places on his body. His left eye was hit by a large amount of gunshot sand, and his left eyeball was blown out. The frame of his left eye has become a blur of flesh and blood.

There were also many grains of gun sand left on Li Renzhong's face and upper body.

"Prince Pu! Prince Pu, please don't die!" The captain of the guard, who was shot in the right arm, ignored the pain on his body and rushed to the side of Li Renzhong, who was unconscious, and cried and shouted.

The two military doctors sighed one after another:

"We have been practicing medicine for decades, but we have never seen such a serious injury as King Pu suffered today! It was not a knife wound or an arrow wound."

"Alas! I have bandaged King Pu's wound and temporarily stopped the heavy bleeding. However, King Pu's left eye cannot be saved!"

"Alas! Not only that, we can't even remove the iron sand that is too deep in many places on King Pu's face and upper body!"

The captain of the guard regretted that he could not immediately fly to protect King Pu. He vented his anger on the two military doctors who treated King Pu.

His eyes were about to burst, and he roared angrily: "If we can't save King Pu, I will kill you and other quack doctors!"

The four military doctors were so frightened that they trembled all over. They said tremblingly:

"We have tried our best..."

"The injury suffered by King Pu is even strange, and we don't have any better way to treat it at the moment!"

"King Pu is so injured that he will survive a narrow escape!"

"We have bandaged the injuries on King Pu and stopped the bleeding. Whether King Pu survives or not depends entirely on God's will!"

…

During this period, the Song Dynasty sent troops to attack Xixia, captured Zhejianghui, blitzed Pule City and Yaode City, and won consecutive victories. The Xixia Iron Harrier Army was almost completely wiped out by the Song Army outside Xijing City. Jin King Richard

Brother was captured by the Song army;

The Emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Guanju, actually led his imperial expedition westward to the outside of the Xijing City of Xia Kingdom.

And Xijing of Xia Kingdom was besieged by nearly 200,000 Song troops.

This series of important military information and battle reports were also taken out with the defeated Tie Yaozi and the remnants of the Jingzhou soldiers and horses, and spread to Xingqing Mansion in Tokyo City, Daxia...

The battle report was like a wildfire setting off a prairie fire. In the past ten days, in the temples of Song, Xia, Liao and Jin, everyone knew that the Song army conquered Xia and actually achieved so many incredible heavyweight victories in a short period of time.

!

Above the temples of the Four Kingdoms, the situation is changing, and everyone is shocked by it!

When the latest battle report came to the Xia Kingdom's palace, the entire court was shrouded in frost.

Emperor Li Qianshun, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked as pale as a sheet of paper. When the latest battle report came to his ears, his eyes suddenly widened in disbelief.

The Iron Harriers and the Jingzhou troops were defeated miserably. Chage, the king of Jin who was good at conquering and fighting, was actually captured by the Song army?!

In the court hall of Daxia Kingdom, the faces of the civil servants and generals were as frosty as frost. Some courtiers bowed their heads and remained silent, some were trembling, and some had deep fear in their eyes...

Li Qianshun was worthy of being the king of Xixia's renaissance. At this time, after hearing the military report of the disastrous defeat of Richard's brother and the siege of Xijing, he was burning with anxiety, but on the surface he pretended to be calm, and he even forced out He smiled and said leisurely:

"My dear friends, please do not panic! It has been thirty-six years since I succeeded to the throne at the age of three."

"I ask you all to think about this: How many times have Daxia and Song been at war in the past thirty-six years?"

"Haha... I would like to ask you to think about it again from Aiqing: What will be the final outcome of the war between Xia and Song Dynasty?"
To be continued...
