The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 277
The siege battle was still going on. The Xixia army and Ma Teng army were fighting hand-to-hand on the city wall, and there were screams and heavy objects falling from time to time.

And Li Yuanhao was not idle either. When he saw that the battle had begun on the city wall, he waved his hand and attacked the city in person with four men: King Zantian, Ji Lasiyi, Yeli Wangrong, and Renduo Baozhong, leaving only Yeli Yuqi. Have troops around you.

At this time, Zhang Pu was no longer around Li Yuanhao. The latter knew that he was not involved in the siege battle when he saw the hand-to-hand battle, and began to check the preparations, that is, the tunnel.

Not to mention that Zhang Pu went to survey the tunnel. Zantian Wang, Ji Lasiyi, Yeli Wangrong, and Renduo Baozhong each chose a Lugong chariot. Among them, Zantian Wang was tall and tall, standing out from the crowd.

When Xixia soldiers saw Zan Tianwang, the number one fierce general in Xixia, they stepped aside one after another. Zan Tianwang rushed up the city wall in three or two steps, waving the huge gold-plated bull horns in his hands, and a dozen Xiliang soldiers were killed instantly. The soldiers who ordered them were stabbed twice.

In this way, there was a huge gap in Lu's bus on the side of the city wall. Xixia soldiers poured in one after another. Zan Tianwang jumped forward and entered the city wall.

The one closest to here is Ma Tie, the third son of Ma Teng, Ma Tie is only 18 years old this year, and he is blood gushing. Seeing King Zan slaying on the city wall, he waved his elephant trunk knife without hesitation.

When Zan Tianwang saw Ma Tie's elephant trunk knife, he caught it with a gilded bull horn. He weighed it and the strength was too weak, so he knocked Ma Tie's weapon away with his backhand. A soldier becomes two segments.

After Ma Tie's elephant trunk knife was blown away, he realized the difference in martial arts between himself and Zan Tianwang. Before he could react, several personal guards physically stood in front of Ma Tie, and they were cut in two with one knife, blood splashing all over Ma Tie's body. .

Seeing a few guards getting in the way, Zan Tianwang let out a snort, and stepped forward to kill this young general!

"Dang" a loud noise came from Ma Tie's side, and it was a bright silver spear that Ma Chao saved his third brother dangerously and dangerously.

"Third brother, Zan Tianwang is not something you can deal with, go help father!"

Only then did Ma Tie come back to his senses, he picked up the spear beside him and looked for the direction where Ma Teng was fighting.

"Brother, be careful with this monster, it's very strong!"

In fact, Ma Chao noticed Zan Tianwang when he was getting into the Lu public car.

Seeing that Ma Tie was near the Lv bus, Ma Chao became anxious and asked his personal guards to block the guard's gap and rushed to this side, only to save Ma Tie dangerously.

The appearance of Zan Tianwang made Ma Chao entangle Zan Tianwang tightly. The two fought on the city wall. The wall stacks were leveled like a human bulldozer.

After several days of fighting, Xiliang soldiers knew how terrifying this one-foot-two giant was. There were Ma Chao who was entangled with him, and there were a few who wanted to sneak up on him.

The battle between Ma Chao and Zan Tianwang on the city wall has become an independent area. Ji Lasiyi and Ren Duo Baozhong are also killing all directions, and they are entangled by Pang De and Ma Dai. The last Yeli Wangrong is Ma Teng Take action personally.

Ma Teng is in his prime this year. He was famous for his martial arts in Xiliang in his early years. Although he was surpassed by rising stars like Pang De, Yan Xing and his son Ma Chao one after another, his martial arts skills are also top-notch, just equal to Yeli Wangrong.

There were already three wreckages in the door opening, and they blocked the entrance of the door tightly. Ma Teng asked Pang Rou to keep a close eye on the Chong cars. Burned!
No matter how Ma Teng can't defend the city, he also knows that if the city gate is opened wide, then Pingxiang City will be over!

The siege battle lasted from morning to dusk, and such a long period of fierce battle exhausted everyone's minds and minds. Even top generals like Zan Tianwang and Ma Chao were defeated, which shows how fierce the battle is.

The vigorous Xixia soldiers almost managed to take down Pingxiang this time. If Ma Teng hadn't fought to the death as a monarch and forced the Xixia army to the city, the city would have been destroyed.

When Li Yuanhao ordered Jin to withdraw his troops, the Xiliang soldiers on the Pingxiang city wall, including Ma Chao, lay directly on the city wall. When the Xixia soldiers retreated, they didn't care about these Lugong vehicles. This made Ma Teng very worried. This shows that Xixia soldiers Siege engines will keep coming.

They ordered to burn these Lu public vehicles, and sent a reserve team to guard the city. After everyone counted the number of people, there were [-] casualties in a big battle!
In addition to the previous continuous battle losses, the total force has been reduced by half. This is still the first day of such a siege battle, but it is more gratifying that the Xixia people suffered more battle losses than themselves.

With Ma Teng's worried mood, the next day Li Yuanhao really launched dozens of Lv Gong vehicles. Fortunately, this time because the wreckage of the previous siege vehicle blocked the way, no rushing vehicles were seen.

It was another day of fierce battle. Li Yuanhao's siege of the city was not as good as the casualties, which caused the strength of Ma Teng's army to drop sharply. Leaving aside those who were killed on the spot, those who were slightly injured continued to defend the city, and they were likely to die in battle the next day. getting bigger.

Fortunately, Li Yuanhao's strong attack regardless of the cost, only three days after Ma Teng paid a huge loss, the siege in the next few days was much weaker, compared to the previous two days, it seemed like a play.

Until five days later at night, there was a loud "Boom!"

A large area of ​​Ximen's city wall collapsed, forming a huge loophole. This loophole was so huge that if the Xixia people spared no effort, they could directly charge into Pingxiang with cavalry!

Moreover, in the middle of the night, when the collapse caused hundreds of Xiliang soldiers to fall or smash to death, Li Yuanhao had already planned to send people to attack, and Ma Teng's defenders were directly beaten. When Ma Chao was still desperate, Ma Teng knew that Ping Xiang I can't keep it.

Ma Teng personally led the people to retreat to the south, leaving Ma Chao and Pang De behind. A night attack made the rapid consumption of Ma Teng's army even worse. The number of people who escaped from the city exceeded [-]. An army of [-] went north!This battle can be described as traumatic!
After fighting for one night, Ma Chao and Pang De fought with Ma Teng, and the integrated army retreated to the south of Ji County, the prefecture of Hanyang County. The loss of Pingxiang meant that all the large tracts of land north of the Wei River in Hanyang County were lost, and only a small piece of land south of the Wei River was lost. Still under control.

Han Sui in Jincheng summoned Ma Xiu in a pretentious manner to lead troops to attack when Ma Teng suffered heavy losses in Pingxiang and retreated to Weishui River.

Han Sui's behavior made Ma Xiu's teeth itch with hatred, but there was nothing he could do. If there were no reinforcements, how could Ji County be defended with only 5000 troops!
