Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1107

There was not a single soldier to be seen in the city, and most of the soldiers who were supposed to be on their posts hid in the caves and lit fires to keep warm, and there was nothing else to be seen in the empty city except for the flickering wind lanterns.

Wei Ziyong, who was walking above the city, frowned. Usually, the city guards have poor military discipline. Now that there are many events, although Xiangfu Kingdom is busy helping the more than 200 million disaster victims in its own country, it will not attack in a large scale, and in Liangping County There were still two military strongholds in the direction of Xiangfu country before, but they still need to be vigilant in a county like them that is not far from the border defense.He just held a meeting during the day to emphasize military discipline, but so far, it seems that the effect is basically ineffective, not to mention the soldiers, even the officers have not seen the shadow.

Walking to the main tower, there was still nothing left, Wei Ziyong's anger was completely uncontrollable, he turned his head and said to the soldiers around him: "Beat the drum for me."

The soldiers rushed to the side of the city tower, picked up the drumsticks, and raised their hands, the sound of thumping rang through the whole city.

With the sound of drums, the top of the city suddenly exploded, and soldiers rushed out from all the caves for hiding soldiers, some forgot to wear their helmets, and some ran out with bare hands, looking at these city guards in a mess Soldiers, Wei Zi was so courageous that he didn't even have the desire to get angry. He shouted loudly, "Look, these are our soldiers. Tell me, if there are enemies coming, can we count on them?"

While speaking, there were bursts of neat footsteps under the top of the city, and 1000 people from the Northwest Frontier Army under the two command drove up to the top of the city.

The two commanders ran up to the tower, clasped their fists at Wei Ziyong and said, "General Li, the last general is waiting to be ordered to arrive!"

Wei Ziyong nodded, "Well, it was just an exercise just now. You performed well. You can rush from the barracks to the top of the city with half a stick of kung fu. I would be very satisfied." The Xiangfu national army spread it out, because it is very appropriate, so it is imitated in both Song and Liao countries, and Wei Ziqi is also learning and using it.

When he heard that a military exercise was being held, the commander of the battalion was a little dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say anything. He bowed and retreated.But Wei Ziyong looked at the other side. The city guards heard that it was a drill, but it was more chaotic. Several officers were yelling at the soldiers to line up, but it seemed that the effect was not good.

Wei Ziyong looked at this side with strict eyes, and with a wave of his hand, a thousand elite soldiers from the northwest frontier let out a cry, raised their spears in their hands, and took a step forward in unison.

This shout was much more effective than those officers' scolding, and the chaotic crowd immediately fell silent.

"Anyone who dares to make noise again, beheaded!" Wei Ziyong said coldly.The soldiers around him took a step forward and loudly repeated Wei Ziyong's order.At this moment, those chaotic grassroots soldiers finally showed their fear.

"You guys still look like soldiers?" Wei Ziyong shouted, "You're just a bunch of mobs."

"Patrolling the city, guarding the city, where are your posts? Are you guarding the stove in the cave, drinking, eating meat, snoring and sleeping? If an enemy attacks, what will happen? Do you know what will happen? The enemy chopped off his head, and he is still a fool when he dies."

There was a commotion below, and a soldier whispered: "What about patrolling the city? A dozen or so family members from my hometown have been driven to Xiangfu Kingdom by the government, and their lives and deaths are unknown now. How can I be in the mood to do this?"

A soldier next to him said in a low voice: "Don't worry! As long as you go to Xiangfu Country, you will be fine. My elder brother and his family have received a letter of safety from the caravan a few days ago, and now they are settling down in Liangzhou City Well, the government of Xiangfu State gave them ten acres of land. Think about it, when my eldest brother was in Qinzhou, his family only had five or six acres of land."

"Shut up, be careful that General Li cuts off your head!" an officer shouted in a low voice.

"Come on, drag out those with disheveled armor and unarmed hands!" Wei Ziyong waved his hand, and a group of northwest frontier troops rushed out, rushed into the crowd on the opposite side, and threw about dozens of soldiers horizontally. Pull it out vertically.

"Your heads should be beheaded, but for the first offender, each person will receive [-] army sticks, and those who dare to call out will receive an additional [-] army sticks." Wei Ziyong said calmly, "From today onwards, whenever I notice someone leaving his post, we will force him to Cut without pardon."

Wei Ziyong walked away, and below, a group of law enforcement officers from the Northwest Frontier Army stripped off the trousers of these people, knocked them down, and beat them vigorously.

"One, two, three, four, five..." As the stick fell, a northwest frontier soldier began to count ten to five. Wei Ziyong spoke first. But no one dared to call out, they gritted their teeth and resisted, and after a while, several people passed out.

Less than two miles away from Liangping City, Sun Lixing, the commander of the First Assassin Battalion of the Special Forces Brigade, led five hundred soldiers of the First Assassin Battalion wearing white cloaks, lying motionless on the snow that just fell last night, far away. Looking at them, they looked like lumps of uplifted snow, and it was extremely difficult to tell. They were ordered to seize the city gate, and held on until the white tiger cavalry led by Han Tao arrived behind them. The sudden sound of drums in the city made Sun Lixing and others Everyone was shocked, thinking that the whereabouts of their group had been exposed, and when they were complaining secretly, they found out that the opponent was actually rectifying military discipline. Sun Lixing was suddenly very angry. Isn't this making trouble for yourself?

Wei Ziyong's ups and downs dragged the time until two o'clock. Five hundred soldiers from the Assassin Battalion fell into the snow. Their body temperature melted the snow, and the snow soaked their clothes.If they hadn't experienced this similar training, they would have been unable to hold on to the normal morale.

Deputy Battalion Commander Ma Tao slowly climbed up to Sun Lixing, "Battalion Commander, the time agreed by General Han is only one hour away, we must act now."

Sun Lixing nodded and said, "Deputy Battalion Commander, I will lead fifty masters to climb up and take down the city gate first, and you will lead the others to arrive later."

……

……

Wei Ziyong returned to his residence in the city full of anger, his anger still lingering, seeing the seductive sleeping posture of the sleeping girl on the bed, he quickly took off his armor and clothes, and was about to vent his anger on the maid, when suddenly outside Wei Ziyong was so startled that he jumped up from the sky-shattering shout.

"What's going on?" With the help of the soldiers who ran in, he hurriedly put on his clothes and armor, grabbed his waist knife in one hand, and rushed out of the house.

Sun Lixing took the lead to climb up the city first, and then dropped the hook, pulling dozens of expert players to the top of the city. Immediately afterwards, teams of hundreds of people climbed up silently one by one.

The city gate was taken down in a short while. When the city gate was wide open, the soldiers of Liangping City guarding the city reacted. Someone beat the war drum. Drive out this group of unknown people who controlled the city gate.But there were also some people who hesitated for a while, and rushed forward slowly, and even a small number went directly to a place where no one was around, took off their military uniforms, changed into civilian clothes, and waited for the army of Xiangfu Kingdom to enter the city .

Although there were more than 2000 city guards who charged first, they were unorganized, their combat power was pitifully low, and their morale was low. One side retreated every step of the way, did not seize the city gate, but was driven back backwards, and for a while, no one rushed forward.

Sun Lixing led hundreds of soldiers from the special brigade, in the midst of two or three thousand city guards fighting without fighting spirit, they managed to easily hold the time for a stick of incense at the city gate. The time for this stick of incense is fatal. When Wei Ziyong led the two elite commanders of the Northwest Frontier Army to the gate of the city, a large number of Liangping city guards blocked their counterattack, and outside the city, the sound of horseshoes was heard clearly.Under the firelight, it can be seen that a large number of cavalry wearing the steel plate armor unique to Xiangfu Kingdom have appeared not far away.

When the first cavalryman shouted through the wide-open city gate and split the head of a soldier with a shiny saber in his hand, Wei Ziyong knew that the situation was over.Xiangfu Kingdom sneaked into the city at night with a small group of experts from the special brigade, and seized the city gate, and then a brigade of cavalry roared in, defeated the defense, and seized the city. example, but so what?

Under the flames, cavalry from the two brigades of the White Tiger Legion poured in, and scattered a large number of Song Army troops at the gate of the city in an instant. The guards, even the elite of the Northwest Frontier Army, could not block them.

There was a sad smile on Wei Ziyong's face. The only thing he didn't understand was why Song Weifu, who claimed to have been watching every move of Xiangfu's army, hadn't sent him any information before.

"General, let's go, retreat, if you don't go, it will be too late!" An officer beside him saw Wei Ziyong who was in a daze.

"Go, where are you going?" Wei Ziyong muttered to himself.

"General, hurry up and flee to Longguan. The army of Xiangfu Kingdom will definitely attack Longguan by surprise. Let's go to Longguan quickly and get General Li Chenghao ready!" the officer said urgently.

Wei Ziyong woke up in horror, yes, if the Long Pass is lost, the army of the Xiangfu Kingdom can enter the pass directly, as if there is no one in the land.

"Go, go, retreat!" Wei Ziyong turned his horse's head and left.

The general fled, and a thousand elite soldiers from the Northwest Frontier followed Wei Ziyong. Thousands of Liangping county guards in the city dropped their weapons in an instant, put their hands on their heads, and shouted to surrender.Looking at their expressions, they didn't have the decadent look that many defeated soldiers should have. On the contrary, they looked excited, and the expressions on their faces were "Why did you come here!"Waiting for you is so hard. 'the meaning of.

The battle to capture Liangping City was unexpectedly quick, and even Sun Lixing and Wen Zitao, the deputy commander of the White Tiger Army who led two cavalry brigades into the city, were a little surprised. Looking at the surrendered soldiers all over the street, Wen Zitao thought of the reasons for this, and felt more and more His Majesty's far-sightedness and unfathomable depth.
