The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 617 The Battle of Chongqing ([-])

The Song Dynasty gave them the method of making thunder and hot air balloons, which can be said to have helped them a lot.

If it weren't for these two sharp weapons, it would be impossible for the Xixia Army to defeat the White Horse Army in this way.

But if you want to say that these Xixia nobles are grateful to Song Dynasty at this time, it's just nonsense.They can't say that they are still scolding the Emperor Song in their hearts, what a fool.

In matters between countries, where is there any human affection to speak of?

They also only thought that the manufacturing method of these two sharp weapons given to them by Emperor Song was also harboring evil intentions, and wanted them to be inseparable from the White Horse Army.In the end, Da Song sat back and enjoyed his success.

No matter how bad it is, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty also wanted them to take Kuizhou, and then easily replace it with a mere Princess Xiushu.

But the little emperor of Song Dynasty might not have imagined that the emperor would change in a short period of time, and no longer regard Princess Xiushu as more important than the whole country, right?
Zhongsun Qifu turned his head to look at Li Wangyuan, and said softly: "Your Majesty, if we take down the Chongqing Mansion, the entire Kuizhou will belong to us in Xixia. In terms of national boundaries, we can far surpass Dali and be compared with the Song Dynasty."

Even in his city mansion, he couldn't help but feel his heart agitated at this moment.

In this era, the territory of a country is a symbol of national strength.

For example, the Yuan Dynasty was able to overlook the world because it had a land that far surpassed that of the Song Dynasty, Xixia, and Dali.

Where there is land, there are people.There are people, which means that there can be a steady stream of soldiers who can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

Taking Kuizhou will add tens of thousands of Xixia troops.

Li Wangyuan nodded lightly, "Lord Zhongsun deserves the most credit. By the way, what happened to Tuoba Sen?"

Zhongsun Qifu said: "Tuobasen sacrificed his life for the country, the emperor's edict has been sent to Tuoba's family, and he should be able to go to Heishan Weifu Military Division in a few days."

He has a plan in mind.

A prominent family like the Tuoba family doesn't care about gold and silver, but more about honor and favor.

He killed Tuoba Sen, and deliberately publicized that Tuoba Sen died for the country's bloody war with great fanfare, just to create an excuse to promote the honor and favor of the Tuoba family.

The Tuoba family had no choice but to accept this honor.

This is Zhaoming chess, and it is also a wonderful chess that can force the Tuoba family to rely on the royal family.

Li Wangyuan nodded slightly again, "I asked Tuoba Xiong to enter the court as an official, teacher, do you think he will agree?"

Zhongsun Qifu smiled softly, "The position of Taiwei is the ultimate honor and favor. If Tuoba Xiong dares not accept it, his Tuoba family's life will not be too easy."

"Then Tuoba Xiong will accept it?"

"Tuoba Xiong is not enough to develop, but more than enough to defend the city. He should have some brains. He doesn't have the guts to put the entire Tuoba family on the opposite side of the dynasty."

Li Wangyuan sighed softly, "When I can subdue all the prominent families in the territory, I can really feel at ease."

Zhongsun Qifu stroked his long beard lightly, "If this battle is won, the emperor will just wait for the patriarchs to show their favor to the court."

bang.

During the short time the two talked, the majestic city gate of Chongqing Mansion collapsed.

This can be said to be a very unfortunate city. In just a few decades, it has suffered countless wars.

If the bones under the city were to face each other, they might already be as high as the city wall.

Li Wangyuan waved again, and another [-] troops rushed towards the city.

dusty.

The yellow dust rolled up, making the sky blurred.

The remaining [-] vanguard troops who were hundreds of meters away from the city wall burst into loud shouts and rushed into the city at the same time.

The already mottled city walls of Chongqing Prefecture became even more dilapidated under repeated bombings.

There are no more white horse soldiers running back and forth on the city wall.

However, as soon as the pioneer army who broke the city rushed into the city gate corridor, they encountered unexpected resistance.

They thought that even if the White Horse Army, who had fled the battle one after another, defended Chongqing Mansion, they would not stick to it when they knew it was impossible.However, in the city, it is precisely the defensive posture put on.

Before the Xixia vanguard army rushed out of the corridor, the city was full of arrows.

Arrows were like rain, shooting into the tunnel with a bang.

The sound of bows and crossbows resounded non-stop.

At the end of the tunnel, soldiers on white horses wearing white silk lay densely on the ground, with bows drawn by their legs, and they shot in unison under the shouts of the generals.

Behind is the longbowman.

There was a small thunder on the arrow that imitated the Thunderbolt Cannon of the Song Dynasty, and it exploded after being shot into the corridor, making a rumbling sound.

The sound echoed back and forth in the corridor, making the Xixia soldiers inside dizzy.

Soldiers fell in rows like straw.

But there were still people pouring in from behind.

The tunnel becomes a slaughterhouse.

Fortunately, the Qi Tian Army in the air had a hot air balloon descending slowly. After seeing the situation outside the corridor, they all threw thunder into the White Horse Army formation.

The white horse bow and crossbow army quickly collapsed.

The Xixia army paid nearly two thousand damages and was able to enter the city.

But when they arrived in the city, they encountered stubborn resistance from the White Horse Army.

The White Horse Army's layout in the city was tight, and it caught all the Xixia soldiers with high morale by surprise.

This fierce battle lasted for several hours.

Li Wangyuan led a large army into Chongqing Mansion, and the fighting stopped for a while.The Xixia army actually only occupied two streets in the lower district.

The soldiers of the White Horse Army were unexpectedly tenacious. When it was difficult for the Qitian Army in the air to make achievements, it made the soldiers of Xixia Army pay a great price.

These two streets were truly paved with flesh and blood.

The streets were littered with corpses and blood flowed like rivers.

In the next few days, the fighting in Chongqing Mansion didn't stop much.When the two sides did not fight with great fanfare, small groups of soldiers continued to test each other.

Li Wangyuan and others knew that the White Horse Army was going to defend Chongqing Mansion to the death, although they were annoyed, they had no choice.The only thing to do is to win Chongqing first regardless of the cost.

They have already reached here, and they can't quit just because the loss is too great.

Without occupying Chongqing Mansion, an important place for military strategists, Xixia would not be able to sit back and relax in Kuizhou.At any time, the soldiers of central Shu may continuously attack Kuizhou from here.

Both sides you come and go with me.

The Xixia army may have just paid a heavy price to take a certain street, and then they will be counterattacked by the White Horse Army in a short time.

But in general terms, the Xixia army, which has an absolute advantage in strength, is undoubtedly still gradually deepening into the city.

As for the White Horse Army, Shi Zhenghao and Wan Fuxin were both anxious.In a few days, more than ten letters of appeal for help were sent to Sichuan, but they all just disappeared like stones and seas.

They could only watch helplessly as more and more soldiers under their command died.

But the most pitiful people are undoubtedly the people in the Chongqing government.

They were either affected by the flames of war, or were forcibly recruited by the White Horse Army as soldiers, filling in temporarily.The entire Chongqing government has only more than [-] people. In just a few days, thousands of people died, and it was even more desolate.

In a blink of an eye, it was cold dew.

It rained heavily.

The rain was so ferocious that it rattled the roof from late at night, and continued until the next evening.

There are mountains and rivers spreading out of the mountains in the city.

It's just that the heavy rain finally washed away the bloody smell in the city.

As a result, the soldiers of the Xixia Army and the White Horse Army were able to have a brief truce.

By this time, the outer city of Chongqing Mansion had all been captured by the Xixia Army.There are only [-] white horse troops left, and they are defending the inner city.

But outside the city, there were hundreds of people in black hats rushing towards the confluence of Fujiang and Minjiang rivers in the pouring rain.

Arrive at the riverside and watch the turbulent turbulent water in the river.More than a dozen of the hundreds of people scattered and ran to various parts of the embankment to watch and taste the soil.

These ten or so people are undoubtedly Captain Mojin who knows how to find Longwang Cave.

They can be said to be the most mysterious people in the North Korean army.

But in this age of belief in luck, they are obviously indispensable.

But soon, more than a dozen people found the easiest place to explode and gathered together in a hurry.

The leader of the men in black gave an order, and the hundreds of men in black dispersed separately.

Boom.

Thunderbolts exploded one by one.

The river embankment, which was not even considered strong, was blasted into more than ten large gaps in a short period of time.

The flood surged out from the gap, and even the surrounding embankments were washed away.

One can imagine what it must have been like for the flood water that was about to reach the level of the embankment to encounter such a gap.

Even though the hundreds of people in black were all of extraordinary skill, they ran away in a hurry the moment the gap was blown open, but some were still washed away by the flood, and soon drowned in the dim river water.

The river water spreads to the fields and rice fields below at an extremely fast speed.

It's cloudy as far as the eye can see.

The original green onions are constantly being ruthlessly swallowed by the flood.

A group of men in black who were not washed away by the flood ran to the top of the mountain not far away, and some people looked in the direction of Chongqing Mansion.
