Chapter 18 The Purpose of Xixia
Chapter 18 The Purpose of Xixia
The battle lasted for more than an hour. Although many Xixia soldiers climbed up the city wall at the beginning, they were all killed by the defenders at the top of the city.
As more and more ladders were destroyed by the Xixia Army, the offensive of the Xixia Army, which lacked ladders, weakened a lot.
Zate's face turned pale when he saw soldiers dying in battle. These were all his men. If the losses were too great, even if Minshan Fort was breached, his strength would be greatly reduced.
"Mingjin retreats!" Zat said coldly.
Now that more than half of the ladder is damaged, continuing to attack will be in vain.
"Woo~"
The melodious horn sounded, and the Xixia soldiers began to retreat in an orderly manner.
Yuan Wenshao put away his gun and stood, watching the Xixia army retreat, heaving a sigh of relief.
Even though he had divine power, he still felt a little tired, let alone those ordinary soldiers.
If the Xixia army continued to attack regardless of casualties, his soldiers would not be able to hold on anymore.
"Qin Li immediately treated the wounded soldiers and counted down the number of soldiers."
"Yes!" Qin Li responded and left in a hurry without taking a rest.
"Liu Quan!"
"Subordinates are here!"
Liu Quan ran over clutching his arms.
When Yuan Wenshao saw it, he quickly asked with concern: "Are you injured? How is the injury?"
"Colonel Lieutenant, my subordinate was bitten by a Xixia bastard. It's not serious. The Colonel just gives orders."
There were a lot of bloodstains all over Liu's body. Apart from being a little tired, his voice was full of energy when he spoke.
"Take everyone to count the supplies!" Yuan Wenshao ordered.
Although Liu Quan was injured, but now there is no one available, so he can only bear it.
"Yes." Liu Quan responded and retreated.
After Yuan Wenshao made arrangements, he went to look for Sun Qi.
The war was stalemate just now, and he didn't have time to pay attention to Sun Qi.
"Mr. Dingguo, are you injured?"
Seeing that Sun Qi was covered in blood, Yuan Wenshao asked nervously.
"Haha~, how can these Xixia bastards hurt the old man? The blood of those Xixia bastards is all over my body!" Sun Qi said with a laugh.
Yuan Wenshao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, but he still said, "Duke, you should take command from behind, and you must not take any risks."
Sun Qi waved his hand and said, "We'll talk about this later, look at the Xixia army, there is no sign of withdrawing, it's very abnormal."
Yuan Wenshao was taken aback, and said, "Dingguo Gong, the Xixia Army has thousands of people, and the casualties just now were only a few hundred. Naturally, they will not retreat so easily."
Sun Qi said with a serious expression: "Whether the Xixia army wants to plunder or sneak attack on Wuning City, after this battle, there is no chance. In this case, why didn't the Xixia army retreat?"
Yuan Wenshao was startled. He really hadn't considered this issue before. Now that Sun Qi said this, he felt something was wrong.
Logically speaking, whether the Xixia army was plundering or attacking Wuning City, if they failed to quickly break through Minshan Fort, Wuning City would definitely get the news.
In this way, even if they break through Minshan Fort, the reinforcements from Wuning City will soon arrive.
Although the Xixia Army has thousands of people, Wuning City also has thousands of defenders. In addition, the Xixia Army came over the mountains and mountains, and they must not carry much supplies and food. They are not the opponents of the Wuning City defenders at all.
It stands to reason that Minshan Fort cannot be conquered in one fell swoop, so retreating is the best option.
"The Duke means that Xixia has another purpose here?" Yuan Wenshao asked doubtfully.
Sun Qi shook his head and said: "I can't figure it out at the moment, but no matter what their purpose is, as long as we can hold Minshan Fort and wait until reinforcements arrive, their plans will naturally come to nothing."
Yuan Wenshao smiled wryly when he heard the words. If he wanted to defend until the arrival of reinforcements, he would have to survive until tomorrow anyway. How could it be so easy.
If the Xixia army continued to attack in batches, let alone tomorrow, it might not be able to support it even after dark.
After all, they were short of troops and the soldiers didn't even have time to rest.
Sun Qi naturally knew what Yuan Wenshao was thinking and said with a smile: "Don't worry, if I can't hold on anymore, I won't stick to it."
The purpose of the existence of Minshan Fort is to temporarily delay the enemy. Sun Qi naturally has no idea of coexisting with Minshan Fort.
But as long as the last step is not reached, he will not give up easily.
When Yuan Wenshao heard this, he relaxed, as long as Sun Qi didn't hold on to his thoughts.
……
Zat learned that more than 300 people were killed in the battle in just over an hour, and his face was very ugly.
At this moment, the soldiers came to report, and Xie Luo rushed over with the army, and Zat rushed to meet him.
"Subordinates see the general!" Zat saluted.
"Hmph!" Xie Luo said with a grim expression, "How did you promise me? Someone, arrest Zat for me!"
A few soldiers rushed out from behind Xie Luo, and stepped forward to hold Zat down.
Zate didn't dare to resist at all, and said loudly: "General, it's not that the subordinates are not doing their best, but the number of people in Minshan Fort is simply wrong. The spies found out that there were only 200 people in Minshan Fort, including those scouts, but the subordinates attacked When I found out that there were nearly 300 defenders in Minshan Fort."
"Is that true?" Shiro asked.
"How dare the subordinates expire as a general? If there is a lie, the general will execute the subordinates, and the subordinates will have no complaints." Zat said quickly.
"General, it seems that Zat is shirking responsibility. Why don't you let your subordinate lead the attack? This subordinate promises to take Minshan Fort within half an hour," Nuershan said.
The reason why Nuershan is so confident is because he has his own plans.
Even if there were 300 people in Minshan Fort, there would be many casualties after Zat's attack, and he was very confident that he could break through.
Xie Luo waved his hand and said, "Minshan Fort has been on guard for a long time, which means that our plan may be exposed, so what if we break Minshan Fort?"
"General, is it possible for us to retreat like this?" Nuershan said unwillingly.
Xie Luo was also a little unwilling to hear the words. The current emperor in Xixia is fighting for power with the queen mother.
And he is the emperor's man.
However, the Queen Mother has been in power for many years and is deeply rooted. There are very few people in the court who support the emperor.
The war was launched this time to establish prestige for the emperor.
Wuning City is not their goal at all, their real goal is Dingzhou City.
Dingzhou City is an important city in the northwest. Once it is conquered, it can greatly enhance the prestige of the Xixia Emperor.
It's just that the most elite [-] Yong'an Army in the northwest of the Great Zhou was stationed in Dingzhou City, plus some other troops, Dingzhou City had a total of [-] defenders.
The Xixia Emperor was weak, and there were only more than [-] soldiers who could be relegated. It was too difficult to break through Dingzhou City, which was stationed by [-] troops.
Xixia An Guogong, who was in charge of this matter, after careful planning, sent several armies to attack several cities on the border of Dazhou that were far away from Dingzhou City, hoping to divert the tiger away from the mountain.
No matter whether their sneak attack was successful or not, Dazhou would definitely mobilize troops and horses to support them after receiving the news. There were insufficient troops in other cities, so they could only mobilize troops from Dingzhou City.
The number of soldiers and horses in Dingzhou City has decreased, and Xixia's 10,000+ army has a great chance to break through Dingzhou City.
"Retreating is definitely not possible. Follow me to see the defense of Minshan Fort." Xie Luo said.
He didn't even breach Minshan Fort, so he couldn't put any pressure on the defenders of Wuning City. Naturally, Wuning City wouldn't ask for help.
If it was because he delayed An Guogong's important affairs, he would be punished by then.
