1396. Pioneer general
The disadvantaged Xixia defenders actually took the initiative to attack, which naturally exceeded the expectations of the Daxia army.
When countless Xixia defenders reached the outer periphery of Dongcheng, the Daxia army that was raging in the city was not yet prepared.
They were in groups of three or five, each immersed in the madness of burning, killing, looting and looting.
It was not until the sound of gunfire was in chaos that the Great Xia army was awakened.
But when each of them is in charge, it is unlikely that the generals in the military want to organize defense.
I don’t know how many generals were shouting, but there were very few soldiers gathered around me.
Many Daxia soldiers died under the guns of the Xixia defenders and fled in panic.
Most of the outer periphery of Dongcheng became chaotic at an extremely fast speed.
On the streets, Daxia soldiers fleeing outside the city were everywhere. The incident happened in a hurry, and they had no time to resist and had no courage to resist.
In fact, there were not a few Daxia soldiers in Dongcheng, but seeing the soldiers in front ran out in panic, most of the people outside were blindly fleeing.
It was not until about two quarters of an hour that the Daxia generals who led their troops to station in the city finally organized their soldiers to initially block the Xixia defenders who had emerged.
The two armies were fighting in the darkness.
That night, the gunshots gradually dissipated until the night was very dark.
The Daxia army finally captured half of the East City, but was taken back by the Xixia defenders. Haoxuan was not driven out of the city again.
The night was filled with cheers.
This night attack greatly increased the morale of the exhausted Xixia defenders.
Wei Fengmao, who was the first to lead the army to rush to the Daxia army, also made people admire him.
It turned out that the tepid deputy commander of Wei Feng Maowei, who was always lukewarm, was so bloody.
After finally seizing his position, the Daxia army did not dare to ravage the people in the city at will. They were afraid that such a thing would happen again.
Due to this incident, several generals in the army were even beheaded.
The beheading was an order issued by Wu Shangyun and other generals of the Daxia army.
This is also a matter of no choice. If you don’t kill the chicken to scare the monkey, you will not be able to prevent the soldiers who are extremely nervous from doing such a ridiculous thing again.
Although the soldiers who entered the city to rage were actually their default, it was impossible for them and the masters to bear this responsibility.
In the Xixia Palace, Li Xiushu, who fainted due to excessive fatigue, woke up quietly.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a palace maid standing next to me with a smile.
Li Xiushu couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked, "Why are you laughing at?"
If the palace maid hadn't had a pure smile, she would have thought that the palace maid would have any intentions for her.
The palace maid's eyes were crescent and replied sweetly: "Back to the emperor, General Wei and others have just fought with the thieves and won a great victory."
Li Xiushu frowned slightly and couldn't help but sit up, "General Wei? Which general Wei? What's going on fighting with the thief army?"
The palace maid said, "When you are unconscious, the thief army slaughtered the people in the city. The deputy commander of Wei Feng Maowei of Yiwei Department could not bear the trouble of the people and led the soldiers in the army to rush out. I just heard that our soldiers had killed thousands of thief troops and almost drove the thief troops out of the city."
Speaking of this, a look of regret appeared on his pretty face, "It's a pity that the thieves gathered later, General Wei and others led their troops to retreat."
"Wei Fengmao?"
Li Xiushu's beautiful eyes widened slightly, and then she showed an extremely comfortable smile, "I didn't expect that he had such courage and blood."
After saying that, she got up and got out of bed, "Change me..."
The thin shirt she was wearing slowly slipped down.
Soon, Li Xiushu, who had put on her armor, walked out of the room.
Chen Yidao stood at the door with a knife.
Seeing Li Xiushu coming out, he nodded to Li Xiushu and followed Li Xiushu.
The group walked out of the palace again.
The Empress is on the front line again.
In the temporary requisition of the house, there were about a dozen Xixia garrison generals talking and laughing inside.
He Liandong is also among them.
Most of the rest are the main generals of the cities around Zhongxing Prefecture, as well as the generals of the Imperial Guards of Zhongxing Prefecture and the Imperial Guards of Yiwei.
The moment Li Xiushu walked into the house, He Liandong and others kowtowed to her, "I'm going to kowtow to the emperor."
In the past, even though Li Xiushu often implemented new policies and reforms, the situation in Xixia improved greatly. However, her prestige in the hearts of everyone was far less strong than that now.
In the past few days, Li Xiushu often led the army to fight, and the men were as good as men, which made the soldiers in the Xixia army convinced her.
Even if she is a woman, she is still ashamed of men and can make countless men in the world ashamed. Such a woman is not a shame for the emperor of Xixia, but a lucky one.
Long live the sounds, quite low, but loud.
Li Xiushu's eyes fell on Wei Fengmao behind He Liandong, and a beautiful smile appeared on his face, "Everyone should get up!"
After being in a coma for about two hours, her spirit improved a little. Her face was no longer as dull as before.
People feel happy when they are happy!
After the generals got up, Li Xiushu had already walked to the main seat of the room and sat down.
Her eyes fell on Wei Fengmao again and said, "General Wei listened to the seal!"
Wei Fengmao quickly stood up and knelt on the ground, "The last one is here!"
The other generals showed no surprise.
Although the gains tonight are actually limited, Wei Fengmao's performance is enough to reward him with the emperor.
Li Xiushu said again: "You have made great contributions to leading the army to repel the bandits. I now give you the commander of the Yiwei Department, and the entire army of the Yiwei Department and the imperial guards in the city. I will also give you the title of the Marquis of the Yiwei Department. I hope you can lead the soldiers to advance bravely, fight bravely, defend the imperial city, defend the people, and defend the dignity of our Western Xia!"
When all the generals heard this, they looked at Wei Fengmao with quite excited eyes.
At this moment, no one felt jealous.
General Wei’s glory is what he deserves.
However, at this moment, Wei Fengmao, who should have become the most powerful general in the center of the Western Xia army, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the last general dare not accept the order."
Li Xiushu couldn't help but be surprised and was slightly stunned, "Why?"
Wei Fengmao said: "How many pounds are the last generals? The last generals have a clear idea. It is better to lead the army to kill thieves. In terms of commanding the soldiers, it is actually not as good as many generals here. The emperor wants to choose someone to command the imperial guards of the Yiwei Department and the imperial guards in the city. It is better to choose another capable person from all the generals! The last generals only want to volunteer as the vanguard general and be the emperor's front pawn!"
Li Xiushu was stunned for a long time when she heard this.
She actually knew that Wei Fengmao's military talent was not outstanding. But she never thought that Wei Fengmao would refuse her appointment and reward because of this.
Then she glanced at the generals in the hall and said, "All the generals should learn from the generals of the Wei. If my Xixia soldiers were like General Wei, why worry about the failure of the thief army? Why worry about the undying of Xixia?"
After saying that, she suddenly stood up and said to Wei Fengmao: "I will allow you to be the vanguard general! In addition, the title of this brave man is the one who is the one who is the heroic man. Don't refuse again."
Wei Fengmao looked up at Li Xiushu and shouted loudly: "Last general, thank the emperor for his kindness."
In the next few hours of that night, the East City of Zhongxing Mansion was relatively calm, but the atmosphere was extremely solemn, as if it was the tranquility before the storm.
Anyone can imagine that the Daxia army will be more violent tomorrow.
really.
The next day, it was still light when the sky was light, and drums were heard outside the east side of the city.
The Xixia defenders who were sleeping on the streets were suddenly surprised.
The empress opened her eyes in the command post, and did not care about washing up, and hurried outside with some masters.
The Xixia defenders in the city were moving.
Less than two quarters of an hour had passed, and the sound of gunfire spreading in the city again.
The hot air balloon in the air covers the sun.
The Daxia army launched the most fierce attack on Zhongxing Prefecture since the siege.
They had about thirteen or forty thousand soldiers left, and all of them joined the siege sequence. Taking the East City as a breakthrough, they launched an attack along the streets and attacked the depths of the city.
The two armies are everywhere in the East City of Zhongxing Prefecture.
The sound of artillery fire continued.
The smell of gunpowder quickly spread throughout the city.
Under the leadership of the pioneer general Wei Fengmao, the Western Xia defenders launched a tug-of-war with the Daxia army and fought to the death without retreating.
The change of ownership in every street means the death of countless soldiers.
The fight lasted until almost noon before the end of the day.
Chapter completed!
