The vanguard of the front army was the five thousand archers led by Pang Wanchun, and the prairie hordes of Yishui.

People in the northwestern world like tall horses, and people don’t like these horses.

What's even more annoying is that the local people are not enthusiastic about the government and even resist.

"General, these people are so annoying. When we passed by the village, we used their wells to drink horses, and they were so scared that they closed the door."

Pang Wanchun persuaded: "There are chaos and chaos. The people are afraid of normal things. Do their own things well, do not rob or take them, and do fairly. No one is allowed to disturb the people."

As Pang Wanchun thought, the people in the northwest suffered from war. The Western Xia soldiers came to rob them, and the officers and soldiers came to rob them.

Therefore, the people have no good feelings for the officers and soldiers, and it would be good if they didn't take any action.

The vanguard army was only fifty or sixty miles away from the headquarters. A team of fifty people spread out more than a dozen to prevent the enemy from attacking.

However, it was still very stable until I entered Huayin County, and I had never seen the Mao of the Western Xia army.

That morning, Pang Wanchun had just traveled for more than ten miles, and all the provoys in front had retracted.

"Report, General. The Western Xia soldiers ahead are fighting against the Western Army, and the Western Army can no longer support it."

"What, how many Western Xia soldiers are there?"

"How many people are not clear, but they have the flag of their ten thousand men. The cavalry should be around four or five thousand, and the infantry more. The Western Army has less than two thousand people, and they are about to be eaten."

Pang Wanchun bends his bow and takes the arrow: "Brothers, rush up, the opportunity to kill the enemy has come."

This was the first time Pang Wanchun met the Western Xia army, which was different from what he imagined. The armored robe of these group of Western Xia soldiers was patched with patches. They were low in figure and even had some skewers.

Pang Wanchun issued an order, and he still had the same way of riding and shooting, without having to pounce on him and shoot arrows from the side.

If you come, I will run away, if you retreat, I will chase you.

This is the feature of riding a bow, which makes it convenient for shooting archery immediately.

The Western Xia cavalry had long discovered Pang Wanchun, after all, there were 5,000 people coming, and they were in a vast and powerful way.

Three thousand cavalry went up to him, thinking about defeating them.

"Hahaha, are these soldiers riding donkeys?"

The laughter of the Western Xia cavalry did not last long, and the arrows of these cavalrymen were too accurate.

Especially the generals who were ahead of the line, seven arrows shot over seven Xixia generals.

The soldiers behind fought for the first place, with many good players in the team and strong players.

As soon as they came into contact, the Western Xia light cavalry suffered heavy losses.

Pang Wanchun led the team around an arc and ran away from a distance.

The general led by Xixia was named Xiang Lin, who was the general of Xixia. He was so angry that he planned to eat the Western Army that had come out to collect grain today, but he didn't expect that five thousand Song troops would come out halfway.

Five thousand cavalrymen are considered an otaku. Xiang Lin didn't care, but he never thought that these people were not moral, and they greeted them hard with bows and arrows, then turned around and ran away without any fight.

The Xixia soldiers followed closely behind and chased them reluctantly.

It was unexpected that the Song army's return arrow was also excellent, which made the Western Xia soldiers suffer.

This group of soldiers is mainly scimitars, and not many are equipped with bows and arrows.

Because the Western Army has few cavalry and many infantry, the Western Xia cavalry’s skillful combat method is to rush forward and fight by scimitar.

Pang Wanchun had discovered the Xixia General, who was also quite powerful, and shot several elite soldiers overturned several arrows one after another.

Pang Wanchun slowed down his horse and gradually fell behind. He suddenly turned back the horse arrow and shot Xiang Lin's neck with an arrow. Why did he shoot the neck? Because the general's armor is specially made and it is difficult to shoot through.

Xiang Lin had a sixth sense. Although he didn't see where the danger came from, he suddenly felt the danger and lay on the horse's back. The feather arrow wiped Xiang Lin's helmet and rushed over.

Immediately afterwards, Pang Wanchun hit the horse's head with an arrow. He was soft-hearted and never shot a war horse. But if he didn't shoot a war horse today, it would be difficult to take this guy off.

The war horse rushed forward and threw Xiang Lin off the horse's back.

The personal soldiers immediately came to rescue Xiang Lin, and the team of the Western Xia soldiers and light cavalry suddenly became chaotic.

After a few breaths, thousands of cavalry and archers had two more rounds of feather arrows.

The Western Xia cavalry lost more than half of the losses, and Xiang Lin got on the horse again. When he saw it, he felt a little disappointed and suffered heavy losses.

"Get out, don't chase after you. Retreat, gather, and suppress it with infantry crossbows."

As soon as the Western Xia soldiers retreated, the remaining soldiers of the Western army also retreated.

Pang Wanchun did not pursue him, he led the light cavalry as the main force. A thousand heavy cavalry were still following a large group of troops.

The remnants of the Western Army gathered alone, and a general passed by. He bowed and bowed and bowed: "Which part of you are?"

"We are reinforcements sent by the court. Pang Wanchun, the vanguard general, may I ask?"

The imperial court document arrived a few days ago, but the Western Army did not take it seriously. Normally, the imperial court said that it would take you three months to send reinforcements.

Sending troops has always been a very difficult situation. It has been dozens of miles a day, but it has not left even after it is cloudy and rainy.

"The last general, Zhong Ying, has met General Pang. Thank you for your help."

Pang Wanchun waved his hand: "Brother, you are polite. The Xixia soldiers retreated. Please treat the wounded soldiers as soon as possible."

Zhong Ying was surprised to find that Pang Wanchun, a cavalry team of thousands of people, actually had dozens of doctors.

In fact, these are not doctors, but medical soldiers, only Dong's simple wound bandage.

In this battle, Pang Wanchun's army suffered great losses, with dozens of people killed and five or six hundred injured.

The Western Army was so miserable. More than 4,000 people came out to collect grain, and more than 2,000 were killed in battle. Now the remaining more than 2,000 are still brought with them.

Zhong Ying was a little helpless and came over to ask Pang Wanchun: "General Pang, do you have any food in your army? Brothers have not eaten for a day and are a little hungry."

Pang Wanchun waved his hand without saying a word: "Each person takes a bag of jerky beef and distributes it to the brothers of the Western Army."

"yes."

Soon, thousands of bags of jerky were brought, which was a compressed ration.

Ruan Xiaoer's ocean-going fleet arrived in North America and discovered tens of millions of bisons in the local area. Using bison as raw materials, a beef jerky factory was established.

This thing will make you full by eating a little bit of it, and Zhongying can also eat it.

"Brother Tian, ​​how is your battle situation?"

"It's so miserable. Since the main force lost in Jiangnan, the Western Army has been unable to do so. After losing one after another, the imperial court's food and salary have not been received in recent months, and the local government cannot collect it. Now the Western Xia army is besieging around Weicheng and is constantly harassing the Western Army. I wonder how many imperial army has come this time?"

"Fifty thousand, brother Zhong, don't worry, we will fight to Xixia this time to relieve the disaster."

Zhong Ying was a little disappointed. You should know that the Western Xia army had more than 100,000. Moreover, during years of battle, the Western Xia army had a very strong combat power, which was suppressive to the Song army.

The Western Xia army retreated, and Zhong Ying did not rush back, but chose to stay and accompany Pang Wanchun and others.

In the evening, Chao Gai's army came up and the Central Army received Zong Ying.

"Physician, how many troops are there in your unit? Do you need supplies?"

"Return to the general, our cavalry has 300 and our infantry has 1,66. The feather arrows have been used up, and there is no food."
