Chapter 33: The Battle of Xixia (3)
Chapter 33: The Battle to Destroy Western Xia (3)
This was a bloody massacre, and the bloody smell in the air became stronger and stronger. In the end, every breath was like drinking blood, which made people disgusted.
The coalition forces of Xixia and Tubo were old and weak on both wings and elites on the middle. The Song army launched an attack on both wings, but they could not resist it. They had no power to fight back, and they could only give the massacre.
These old, old, young, old, old, old, and old, all have white hair and beard. They are old men of the level of the old man, and the young are still yellow-mouthed children. At the age of fourteen or five, they can only drive bows and ride horses. These are the "Master Army" and "Boy Scouts". Not to mention their equipment, they are similar to being unarmed, some of them are just hunting bows, hunting forks, and even wooden sticks.
Xixia and Tubo were originally lacking in excellent weapons. Although they could convene hundreds of thousands of troops, not many could truly have excellent equipment. Limited equipment was even more impossible to equip these cannon fodder. Facing the Song army armed to the teeth, they had no way out except to die.
When these old and weak men saw the Song army rushing towards them like a storm, they were full of murderous aura. They all lost their souls and courage, and they laid a few arrows randomly, shouted, and applied oil on their feet, and began to run away.
Even if they escaped, they could not escape. The Song army chased them from behind and had no place to escape at all, and there was only one way to die.
In this way, in the face of the Song army's tide of offensive, the coalition forces of the two countries were harvested in unison, with countless casualties.
At first, the splashing blood just dyed the ground red. Later, the blood became more and more, and it was too late to soak in the soil to form a pool of blood lakes. Later, the blood lakes gathered together and formed streams, and the sound of blood flowing was particularly loud.
These streams gathered again to form a large blood lake. The two armies rushed into the blood lake, and corpses fell into the blood lake continued to splash large patches of blood flowers. Under the sunlight, they were particularly charming and indescribable.
Less than half an hour after the massacre broke out, nearly 100,000 people were killed or injured by the coalition forces of the two countries. Of course, this was not entirely the result of the massacre of the Song army, but also the casualties caused by their stampedeship.
The Song army had amazing combat power. The tigers scrambled into the flock of sheep from the mountain and rushed around, as if they had entered a land of no one. Wherever they went, there must be minced meat on the ground and endless blood surged. How could these old and weak not be frightened and had to escape in the end.
The elderly and weak allied forces were snatched by it, wishing that their parents would have two more legs, and they would escape as quickly as they could. They would squeeze and step on them, and countless casualties were injured.
Looking at the messy battlefield and the fallen coalition forces in groups, Wu Ji was also frightened. Although he had been on the battlefield many times, the first thing he encountered was the massacre like this.
"It's not that I'm cruel, but that I have to kill you!" Wu Ji understood very well: "If we are defeated, these old and weak will turn into devils in a blink of an eye, chasing us from behind, and taking pride in killing us! This is called repaid and repaid!"
This is true. Although the old and weak coalition forces are now looking like they are waiting to be slaughtered, if the Song army is defeated, they will definitely be as brave as tigers and will never show mercy after chasing the Song army from behind.
"Woooooo!"
Li Bingchang, on the top of the city, saw the situation on the battlefield, and couldn't help but shed tears, wiped his tears, and started to cry: "It's all me who harmed you! It's all me who harmed you! I've been hit by Wu Ji's poisonous plan!"
"Your Majesty, don't be sad. It is their honor to be loyal to Daxia!" The ministers never expected that Li Bingchang would cry in public.
"Woooo!" Li Bingchang cried even more sadly: "I was incompetent and hurt them! I finally understood why Wu Ji stayed in Xiazhou and did not move westward. That was his poisonous plan. He wanted me to spare no effort to transfer the warriors of Daxia from the mountains and forests so that he could decide for him! Isn't that what Cao Cao did when he conquers Xiliang? Isn't I stupid, I was stupid, I actually fell into his poisonous plan without knowing it! Hundreds of thousands of old and weak, they shouldn't die here!"
Li Bingchang is also a smart person. Seeing the old and weak falling down in pieces, he finally understood Wu Ji’s intention. It was a bit late, so why regret it?
After he reminded him, Dong Wu also understood and his heart sank. Not only Li Bingchang, the only one who fell into Wu Ji's plan, was also Dong Wu.
“…”
The ministers of Xixia and Tubo understood that they were all petrified directly. Wu Ji's move was so cruel, especially ruthless. This was to kill all the Xixia people and Tubo people!
It can be imagined that after this battle, Tubo in Hexi could not have any storms!
It was not only Li Bingchang and Dong Wen who came here, but also Li Zongbao, Liang Xi and Dong Zhao. The three of them were shocked to see the old and weak falling in pieces. Although they had experienced many battles and had long been accustomed to dead people and blood, seeing such a large-scale massacre with their own eyes was the first time in their lives, and they would not be shocked.
"I understand! I understand!"
Suddenly, Li Zongbao screamed, his face full of shock. When he brushed it, his face turned pale as paper, without any blood, as if it had been buried in the soil.
"What do you understand?" Liang Xi was surprised and asked hurriedly. He knew Li Zongbao. He was a brave man who had experienced many battles and was extremely brave. It would be a big deal to scare him into such a state of mind.
"I understand Wu Ji's intention. Wu Ji's vicious plan is so cruel! He wants to beat our Xiang people to abstain from their descendants, and not even have a seed left!" Li Zongbao's voice was sharp and harsh, extremely loud.
"ah!"
Liang Xi was also a smart person. When he reminded Li Zongbao, he immediately understood and stepped back, his face pale as paper. He couldn't even open his mouth, but he couldn't speak.
“…”
Dong Wen also understood and petrified directly.
Wu Ji's plan was very successful. He set up such a large pocket for them to drill, and they really got into it. Is there such a stupid person in the world?
"What should we do now? Should we rescue them?" Li Zongbao was frightened, looked at the battlefield where countless casualties and injured, and inquired.
"If we don't save it, we feel uncomfortable. That's our elders. We just died like this, it's heartbreaking!" Liang Xi thought for a long time: "But how can we save it?"
"There is only one way to save them and defeat Wu Ji's central army!" Dong Zhao's eyes rolled and he immediately became scheming.
He was right. If the old and weak are no longer massacred, he would have to defeat Wu Ji's central army. This proposal is very good. The problem is that it is destined to be impossible.
"Defeat Wu Ji's central army? Don't expect it. It would be great if we can defeat him!" Li Zongbao looked at the battlefield situation and said, "Even if our elite troops are more than Wu Ji's central army, Wu Ji is good at using troops and will not let us succeed. Besides, look at it, there are 50,000 Song troops on standby. They will rush to wherever they are tight. We cannot defeat Wu Ji."
"You can't watch the elders be massacred, right?" Liang Xi knew that Li Zongbao was telling the truth, but he was unwilling to accept it.
"We won't watch it, Wu Ji has come here!" Dong Zhao pointed ahead and saw Wu Ji leading the central army to the coalition central army and launching a scattered offensive.
"Wu Ji, you are competing with our central army with only 50,000 people. You are too disgusted with our warriors!" Li Zongbao, Liang Xi, and Dong Zhao looked down upon him, and he felt very unhappy.
In their opinion, the central army of the coalition forces is all elite, and its combat power is no worse than that of the Song army, not to mention the Iron Yaozi and Tubo personal guards. Even if they have the advantage of military strength, Wu Ji will be uncomfortable no matter what.
However, the progress of the war was far beyond their imagination, and the central army of the coalition forces could not stop Wu Ji's central army.
Under Wu Ji's command, the Song army rushed in like a tide. First, strong crossbows shot from a long distance, and the raindrop-like crossbow arrows covered the coalition's central army. There were many coalition forces that were caught in the arrow.
Although these elite coalition forces have excellent weapons and armor, they still cannot resist the attack of powerful crossbows. Strong crossbows are known for their long range and strong penetration, but they cannot resist the attack of powerful crossbows.
Speaking of powerful crossbows, there were also many Xixia and Tubo troops, which immediately took effect and attacked the Song army. Speaking of powerful crossbows, the coalition's powerful crossbows were more powerful, had a longer range, and had stronger penetration because they were large powerful crossbows that required many people to use.
It is precisely because of this that the arrows were not dense enough. Although it caused a lot of trouble for the Song army, it could not hurt the Song army's muscles and bones.
The Song army used the Breaking Bow, which was not as flexible as the coalition forces in terms of range and penetration. It was flexible and had dense arrows, which could cover the coalition forces in pieces, which poses great threat to the coalition forces.
Soon, the Song army rushed closer. The powerful crossbow had lost its function and could no longer be used, so it had to rely on hand-to-hand combat.
For the coalition forces, at this time, they had no other tactics besides fighting. For the Song army, there were several tactics that could be used. The first was the thunderbolt bombs were used. The overwhelming thunderbolt bombs were thrown. The coalition forces could not resist it. They fell in pieces, and countless casualties were injured.
After the thunderbolt, there was a bright Mo Dao. Under the cover of the knife hand, Mo Dao came with the Mo Dao. It was a wall of swords. Whenever the Mo Dao was raised, it was full of murderous intent, indicating that many Western Xia soldiers were going to die. Whenever the Mo Dao slashed down, the Western Xia soldiers turned into minced meat.
"Oh my God! This can't stop it!"
Li Zongbao, Liang Xi and Dong Zhao saw it, were shocked in his heart, and exclaimed in surprise.
The three of them participated in a large and small battle, and they would not be too far apart, and they had never seen such a fierce offensive. In front of the Song army, the elite of the coalition forces were like children, without the slightest power to fight back, and only the only thing to be beaten.
"The previous army was just like this!"
The three people who had a deep memory of Tang Jun sighed at the same time.
"Only the only way to do this is to dispatch Iron Harrier!" Li Zongbao and Liang Xi said at the same time. Iron Harrier is their last ace and will not be used until the critical moment. These elite soldiers are no match for the Song army at all, and their only hope is Iron Harrier.
"It's time for our Tubo guard to move!" Dong Zhao knew it was time to use the last trump card.
Before the three of them could send orders, they heard a shout: "Iron Harrier, help me! Help me!"
"Hurry up, flee to the central army, Iron Harrier will save us!"
"The guards of the Great Tubo will save us!"
The three of them looked around and saw the old and weak on the left and right wings driving the Song army like ducks. At first glance, there were countless people, and there were only a sea of people, which was even more spectacular than the surging tide.
