The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1309
In the commander's tent of the military camp outside the city.

He Liancheng sat on the main seat.On the left and right sides of it, there are more than ten generals, and several Tingchao Mansions with swords on their backs.

On the desk in front of Helian City, there is a map with a yellow background.The ravines and ravines on the map are the detailed map of the military commander of Baimaqiang Town in Xixia territory.

Hengshandu is like a giant beast, guarding the checkpoint.

Helian City had already marked a large black circle on the city pattern representing Hengshandu.At this moment, he was staring at the circle in a daze.

Although he has enough powerful firearms in the imperial army at the moment, as a general, he often demands a simpler, faster, and effortless method to win.

The same is true for Helian City.

It would be the best thing if there were mountain roads around Hengshan Ferry that could be used for traveling together, so that the army could go to the back of Hengshan Ferry to encircle them.

It's a pity that there are no such trails on the left and right sides of Hengshan Ferry.

Helian City not only studied the map, but also asked the local people.To go to the military division of Baimaqiang Town, the only way is to cross the city of Hengshandu.

Gradually, a look of struggle emerged in Heliancheng's eyes.

He is probably making the final decision.Since there is no other shortcut available, the only option is to forcefully attack Hengshandu.

And at this moment, outside the handsome tent, several generals in armor were jingling and about to come in.

The leader is Zhongsun Zhouting.

He and He Liancheng each commanded [-] forbidden troops. Although He Liancheng was the commander and he was the deputy commander, in fact, they each commanded their own troops.

This can make the army more flexible and changeable, which is also a common thing in this era.

As soon as he entered the tent, Zhongsun Zhouting said to He Liancheng: "General He Lian, there is still no movement from the Daxia bandits in the city, do you think we..."

He Liancheng frowned slightly, nodded and said: "I also have the same intention. Only the Daxia bandits can't hold out, I'm afraid they are quite well prepared in the city!"

"Ha ha!"

Zhongsun Zhouting chuckled, "It doesn't matter if they are fully prepared, can they still stop the projectile?"

Immediately afterwards, he said quietly: "And I have a different opinion from General Helian."

"Oh?"

He Liancheng was slightly surprised, "I would like to hear the details."

Zhongsun Zhouting glanced at the people in the commander's tent, and said: "Our army came with great fanfare. I thought that the enemy should have known that our army had borrowed projectiles, Shenlong blunderbuss and other things from the Song Dynasty. I dare not go out of the city to fight."

He Liancheng was slightly moved when he heard the words, and couldn't help showing joy, "General Zhongsun is right, this possibility is really great."

Then he no longer hesitated, and shouted in a deep voice: "All generals listen to orders!"

All the generals under He Liancheng's command in the handsome account handed over, "The last general is here!"

However, He Liancheng looked at Zhongsun Zhouting with a smile, and said, "General Zhongsun, then tomorrow I will take the lead in attacking, and you will support me, how about it?"

He also suddenly remembered that he had to take into account Zhongsun Zhouting's thoughts.

If he directly ordered the generals to prepare to attack the city like this, Zhongsun Zhouting still thought that he wanted to grab credit.

Immediately afterwards, he said again: "If General Zhongsun wants to attack, it is also possible. I will lead the army to support it."

"Ha ha!"

Zhongsun Zhouting chuckled again when he heard the words, "General Helian, you should lead the army to attack first! I, Zhongsun Zhouting, am not such a petite person."

He obviously understood what Helian Cheng meant.The latter sentence also made He Liancheng not have any scruples.

This battle is of crucial significance to Xixia, and at this juncture, he has no intention of taking credit for it.

As long as you can win in the end.No matter how great or small the achievements are, in fact, with his and He Liancheng's status in Xixia, it is already very difficult to climb up.

The two of them are already the two most powerful and famous generals in the Xixia Army.At the same time, it is also the highest status.

He Liancheng nodded vigorously after hearing what Zhongsun Zhouting said, "Then let's work together to wipe out all these rebels!"

"It's natural!"

Zhongsun Zhouting nodded with a smile, then bowed his hands to Helian City, and then left with all the generals.

He came here just to communicate with Helian Cheng.He felt that there was no need to delay the attack on Hengshandu any longer.

The army camped in the wild, and consumed countless food and grass every day.

The next day.

Even when the sky was slightly bright, the camp outside Hengshan Ferry was already filled with smoke.Of course, it was the same for the first two days.

Only this time, after the army had breakfast, they did not practice again.Instead, under the leadership of He Liancheng, they headed towards Hengshan Crossing Pass.

The cold wind was bleak, and the flags in the army were fluttering.

The soldiers of the Xixia Forbidden Army under the command of Helian City all held Shenlong guns, and some soldiers carried grenades and sky cannons on their backs, which seemed quite high-spirited.

Many of them have seen the power of these Song Dynasty firearms before, and now there are such firearms in the army, of course they feel that it is inevitable to break through Hengshan.

Zhongsun Zhouting also led more than ten thousand soldiers out of his camp.

Only about two miles in front of the camp, they stopped moving forward.

Although there were [-] Great Xia soldiers in Hengshandu, everyone felt that with Helian City's [-] imperial troops, it should be more than enough to break through Hengshandu.

And no one knew that at this time, a certain Great Xia general standing on the top of Hengshandu City looked at the imperial army winding up from Helian City, but there was a smirk on the corner of his mouth.

There are only dozens of cannon throwing vehicles at the top of the city, but judging by his appearance, he is not worried at all.This is certainly not normal.

Gradually, He Liancheng led the Xixia Forbidden Army to the city.

Facing the towering Hengshan crossing city wall, all the lieutenant soldiers stood up slowly.

He Liancheng raised his head to look at the top of the wall, and shouted at the top of the wall: "Where is Wu Shangyun!"

The general at the top of the wall who just showed a smirk took two steps forward, "Wu Shangyun is here! I don't know what General Helian wants to say!"

He is the cousin of Wu Deng, the head of the Wu family, and also the former deputy commander of the military division of Baimaqiang Town.In the entire Xixia country, he can be regarded as a general with real power and reputation.

Although He Liancheng is the commander of the imperial army, but in front of Wu Shangyun, he is really just a junior.

Seeing Wu Shangyun's answer, He Liancheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "General Wu, our Xixia families are all of the same spirit. In the past, the emperors of all dynasties have treated my family well. I am grateful to Dade, okay? It is easy to restore the country, and it should be loyal to assist His Majesty. He Liancheng heard that General Wu is a loyal man, and he has made great contributions to the restoration of the country, but now, why are you with the bandits?"

Wu Shangyun, the head of the city, snorted coldly, "The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackey is cooking! The empress doesn't think about our hard work, and wants to destroy our family. How can we just sit and wait for death?"

In fact, he is really a loyal general as He Liancheng said.Before that, he had indeed worked hard for the restoration of Xixia, and he had made a lot of contributions.

But now, Wu Shangyun undoubtedly has deep resentment towards Li Xiushu.

In his opinion, the treason of the four major armies was all forced by Li Xiushu.I just didn't think that Li Xiushu was like this, but it was also because Wu Deng and others had different intentions.

These people, Fuguo, in the final analysis, are only seeking benefits for the family.

Wu Shangyunyuan is in the military division of Baimaqiang Town, and he is also a member of the Wu family. Even if he has a heart of loyalty, he will inevitably be deceived and assimilated.

He Liancheng sighed softly when he heard what Wu Shangyun said.He knew that it was pointless to continue talking.

Ever since the four army divisions and the Forbidden Army were killed on Lintao Road, there was actually no room for change between the two forces.

He cupped his hands against the top of the wall, and shouted in a cold voice: "Since that's the case, the junior will only be offended!"

Wu Shangyun snorted coldly again, "Just let the horse come over!"

Both of them are people who have cultivated internal energy, so they are quite proud of their conversation.

"The grenadier!"

He Liancheng raised the spear in his hand and shouted loudly.

On the side, there are commanding flag soldiers on the women's cart waving the commanding flag.

In an instant, hundreds of soldiers ran to the front of the army.

Many soldiers carried grenadiers on their backs, and when they arrived in front of the army, they hurriedly drove the grenadiers to the ground.

But at the top of the city, Wu Shangyun also waved to the back.

Soldiers brought up many boxes from the bottom of the city.

Along the line of the city, a general ran over with his soldiers, opened the box, and his face was full of excitement.
