Chapter 244 Siege Battle

The reason why Jiang Erya wanted to end the battle with Xirong within two months was because King Guangping planned to attack Emperor Yongshou in three months.

Originally, she planned to directly drag Xiao Xinghe into Beijing to deal with King Guangping.

But the dog system predicts that King Zhenbei will take He Jiajun to Qingyang County this time, and he will never return.When Duke Ding and his wife heard the bad news, they would not be able to bear the blow and both passed away.

Ding Guogong and his wife supported her and her father many times, with a heart of love without any purpose.

Her heart is not made of stone, and she has long regarded Ding Guogong and his wife as important elders.

Now that she knew that tragedy was about to happen, she couldn't sit idly by.

Xi Rong will be settled within two months, and the remaining month will be used to travel to Kyoto to stop King Guangping from forcing the palace.

Jiang Erya donated [-] shi of grain to He Jiajun, and also presented a detailed map of Xirong Kingdom.

Then, she and her 56 soldiers showed their abilities respectively.

In this way, King Zhenbei agreed to make an exception and take them to Qingyang County to serve the country together.

King Zhenbei was originally afraid that Jiang Erya and the others would not be able to keep up with the marching speed and would hold back the He family's army.

As a result, he worried too much.

Even if Jiang Erya's men were pushing heavy grain carts, they could move faster than the infantry who only carried ordnance.

That's fine too.

The 50 army of Xirong is attacking Qingyang County, and the defenders led by General Cao are waiting for their support.

They cannot afford to delay.

Zhenbei Wang He Zhenzhong shouted: "Full speed ahead!"

He Jiajun responded at the same time: "Yes!"

The sound is so loud that it fills the ears like thunder.

Jiang Erniu rode the war horse that Jiang Erya had prepared for him, and when he heard the uniform voice of He Jiajun, an indescribable pride and ambition arose in his chest.

Originally, he would follow, but because Erya insisted on going to the battlefield, he was worried about Erya's safety, and wanted to stay by Erya's side all the time.

But at this moment, looking at the back of his uncle He Zhenzhong, he couldn't regain his senses for a long time.

After a while, he finally figured out why he was in a daze.

He drove his horse up to Jiang Erya, and said, "Erya, Dad wants to join the army."

Although he has the name of Yong'an Hou Shizi, even though he can live comfortably for the rest of his life as long as he follows Erya.

However, he still wanted to try it out, what it would be like to make contributions through his own efforts.

It is said that when you go to the battlefield, every time you cut off the heads of [-] enemies, you can be promoted to a noble level.

Jiang Erya was stunned for a moment when he heard what Jiang Erniu said, then smiled, nodded and replied, "Well, Dad can do whatever he wants..."

……

Half a month later, the Xirong army attacked Qingyang County again.

The coach of the Xirong Army is Hua Bu Tu Tuo's cousin Hua Bu Tuo Tuo.

At this moment, he is standing in the formation and directing the battle.

Waves of arrows rained towards Qingyang County, and nearly one-tenth of the soldiers on the tower were killed or injured.

The catapults threw artillery one by one to Qingyang County, and within a short while, the houses in the city were ablaze, and the green smoke drifted away with the wind.

Several bridge-building vehicles crossed the ditch outside the city gate of Qingyang County, and the soldiers of the West crossed the trench from the bridge-building vehicles with their swords and guns, and came outside the city wall of Qingyang County.

The ladder was erected towards the city wall, and the soldiers of the Western Army climbed the ladder while avoiding the arrows shot down from the tower.

The unfortunate person who was hit by the arrow screamed, fell from the ladder, and fell into a pulp.

Fortunately, while climbing and hiding, he also shot an arrow on the tower, counterattacked, and approached the top of the tower step by step.

A huge stone fell down the ladder, and these people also fell off the ladder.

Hua Bubu shouted: "Up, up, up! The first person to climb the tower will be promoted three times in a row!"

Under the reward, there must be a brave man.

Under the temptation of being promoted to three levels in a row, the Xibing soldiers were brave enough to climb up the ladder one after another without fear of death.

Seeing that the top and bottom of the city tower were piled up with the corpses of soldiers from both sides, Hua Bu Lian gave an order, and the chariots attacking the city gate entered the field.

The hard rushing car slowly moved towards the city gate.

On the top of the tower, General Cao shot arrows towards the bottom of the tower while asking the soldiers around him for supplies.

Deputy General Mu said with a pale face, "General, we don't have many arrows..."

Not only are there not many arrows, but other ordnance are also almost worn out.

What's more unfortunate is that one of their grain and hay stacks was hit by the artillery thrown by the catapult. The rescue was not timely, and hundreds of grains were burned.

If reinforcements don't come, Qingyang County will be in danger...

Hua Bu Lian looked at the situation on the battlefield and nodded in satisfaction.

This is the fifth time he has launched an attack on Qingyang County.

The previous few times he had underestimated the enemy, thinking that Daqing's defenders were only [-] to [-], and if he sent a [-] army to besiege the city, he could easily capture Qingyang County.

Unexpectedly, the city wall of Qingyang County was so thick and hard that their rammed cars couldn't hit it at all.

Last time, they gave up rushing against the city wall and slammed into the city gate alone.

As a result, their soldiers were exhausted from the collision, and only a little bit loosened the city gate.

It turned out that the coach of Daqing had already ordered someone to pour copper juice on the city gate and weld the gate to death.

Fortunately, after the previous times of attrition, the defenders of Daqing did not have much ordnance left, and there were not many soldiers capable of combat.

This time, they mobilized their entire army, and they were bound to capture Qingyang County before Daqing's reinforcements arrived.

The spies quietly bypassed the city, sneaked into Daqing, and found out the news of Daqing's reinforcements.

There are more than 20 reinforcements in Daqing, and they are the Hejia army who originally guarded the northern border.

The prestige of the He family army has never been heard before.

The Moro Kingdom in the north is famous for its toughness, but no matter how tough the Moro Kingdom is, it will still be suppressed and beaten by the He family army in Daqing.

The spies came to report that the He family's army had dispatched a fast marching army, traveling light and simple, day and night, which had already reached hundreds of miles away.

Their main force and logistical force were only three days behind in the haste march with their military supplies.

If they can't attack Qingyang County today, the He family army will reach Qingyang County tomorrow.

At that time, the battle situation will fall into a stalemate.

The Xirong Kingdom was short of food, and the 50 troops would consume several thousand shi of grain every day. The Xirong Kingdom simply couldn't afford a protracted war.

The first batch of soldiers on the rush car were tired, so they knocked the city gate loose a little.

Immediately arrange for a second wave of soldiers to step forward and replace them.

The second wave of soldiers was exhausted, and a third batch was replaced.

The city gate was about to fall.

On the other side, someone finally climbed the tower from the ladder.

The remaining defenders were too busy killing the Xibing soldiers who had climbed the tower, so they didn't care about attacking those who were climbing the ladder.

The defenders lost sight of this and let more soldiers from the West climb up the tower.

Deputy General Mu was injured in many places and was nailed to the city wall with a single shot.

General Cao was so red-eyed that the big knife in his hand was blunted.

Other generals are also struggling to kill the enemy.

However, there are too many enemies...

At this moment, in the clear sky, a loud thunder suddenly sounded.

After the thunder, a big hole was blown out of the formation lined up by Xirong's 50 troops, causing a large number of casualties...
