Chivalrous Song Dynasty

There are many people with tracking experience who know how to search along the ruts and horse manure, but they found that these ruts and horse tracks disappeared near Mizhi Village, and they seemed to be all hidden.

After hearing these reports, Zhong Shidao became depressed. Let alone [-] soldiers, even [-] mice wouldn't be able to hide so cleverly, right?Can I have none?

Unless they crossed the Wuding River and reached the border of Hexi, but no one saw the army crossing the river.

So he ordered: "Go, go to the west of the Wuding River to investigate!"

All the scouts were shocked, if they didn't bring some goods to pretend to be business travelers, what's the difference between crossing the river to explore and sending them to death?But the orders of Mr. Zhong are so strict that they can only be obeyed.

Zhong Shidao was very surprised because he couldn't find anyone, but he didn't know that Zhao Kai, who was in Bai Sheng's army, was ten thousand times more surprised than him.

Was this how the war was fought?He felt that all the military books and strategies he had read in the past were in vain, and Bai Sheng's style of play was beyond his imagination.

In the early morning, the dark clouds dissipated, and the sun filled the gullies and forests of Hengshan Mountain. The three thousand elites marching in the mountain were covered with fresh green branches or dead grass on their heads. Looking around, there was a piece of green and yellow, which was different from the high slopes of the loess. landscape merged into one.

Even if you observe from close at hand, as long as the soldiers stay still, it will be difficult to pick them out from the green and yellow natural scenery.

Bai Sheng's army is still advancing, he doesn't plan to lie down at night, there are no less than [-] camps and castles to be conquered, if they only fight at night, wouldn't it take seven or eight days?

The artillery team could no longer keep up with his advancing speed. The artillery team had just crossed the river before dawn and still needed maintenance and maintenance.

Now he relies on the spells of Fan Rui and Ma Ling, Xiang Chong and Li Yanqiongying plus his own long-range precision strikes, and the coverage of a thousand archers, a thousand javeliners and a thousand flying swordsmen. kill.

His tactic was not to provide the enemy with a field of fire beyond two hundred paces, that is to say, when one's own troops were exposed to the view of the attacked fort, the distance between each other was at most one hundred paces.

At this distance, the Xixia people's ultra-long-range god-arm bow could not exert any advantage, and was wiped out by their own precise strikes before the enemy's attack was detected.

There is no artillery, and there is Ma Ling's steamer that can be set on fire. Bai Sheng also invented a wonderful way to make explosives.

Send the death squads to deliver the explosives to the enemy's fortress, then evacuate, and let Ma Ling sacrifice the steamer to light the cannon!

The power of this explosive package is of course not as powerful as that of the later generations during World War II. To put it bluntly, it can basically only play the role of arson, but the way of firing this gun is beyond the reach of the army of later generations, and it can still blow up the Xixia people. funeral.

There are no iron kites in the Xixia camp in Hengshan, the god arm bow is restrained, and Bubazi is blocked by long-range weapons and cannot get out. If he comes out, he will die. No matter what kind of fortress is facing the same fate, then It is either surrender or be killed.

If the fight continues like this, isn't it just around the corner that Xixia will be wiped out?Three thousand soldiers and horses destroy Xixia?Zhao Kai felt like he was dreaming, unable to accept the reality of this illusion.

This Bai Sheng is too strong, with his style of play, not to mention the Xixia Kingdom, what Fang La, Tian Hu and Wang Qing, what Liao Kingdom and Great Song Dynasty, doesn't he just destroy whoever he wants?

However, just when he adored Bai Sheng, Bai Sheng's soldiers encountered the most tenacious resistance in this battle.

Resistance emerged in Tongwan City.

Strictly speaking, Tongwan City is actually a ruin, a ruin in the desert.

This is the city built by Shanyu Helianbo, the Hun under the leadership of [-] people during the Five Husbands of China. Helianbobo himself named it "Tongwan" to show his intention of "unifying the world and ruling all nations" based on this city. Ambitious.

The layout of Tongwan City is divided into East City, West City and Outer City. The population in the city is more than 4. The construction projects in the city are huge and magnificent, and the city walls are white and strong.

Afterwards, the Huns were defeated, and Tongwancheng changed hands several times.

Until the fifth year of Chunhua in the Great Song Dynasty, when Li Yuanhao’s great-grandfather Li Guangyan, a party member, occupied the place, for political and military purposes, Zhao Kuangyin ordered the city to be demolished and emigrated under the pretext of being deep in the desert. Lost in the sea of ​​sand.

It was precisely because of Zhao Kuangyin's forced demolition that Li Guangyan's son, Li Yuanhao's grandfather Li Jiqian, rebelled against the Song Dynasty, because the party members discovered through this forced demolition that simply submitting to a powerful country cannot lead to a happy life.

Today's Tongwan City only has a complete city wall left. There are no houses or facilities in the city that can support human survival, but thousands of Xixia soldiers and civilians who escaped from the surrounding military villages have gathered.

The soldiers and civilians in these military villages chose to flee when Bai Sheng's army launched an attack. They fled in the same direction as Bai Sheng's attack. When Bai Sheng attacked from the south, they fled from the north. Attacking from the east, they fled from the west.

In short, Ma Ling, who was on the periphery of the attack target, did not have time to kill these people one by one, and these people fled into this ruined city of Tongwan.

Today's Tongwan City has only one characteristic, that is, it is strong, strong and not afraid of fire.

The city wall that Zhao Kuangyin assigned Yang Ye to set off a big fire failed to burn down, and today Bai Sheng can't burn it down either.

As early as when discussing the plan in the capital, Di Lie once mentioned this Tongwan city to Bai Sheng, saying that the tamping technology of this Tongwan city is unprecedented, and the Tongwan city wall is extremely strong.

How strong is it?Di Lie said that his grandfather Di Qing once threw a sharp steel point gun at close range with all his strength, and the steel point gun only penetrated two inches into the city wall, and then fell, and could not penetrate at all!

For this reason, Bai Sheng also verified it, and shot an arrow on the city wall with the horned dragon bow and Wujin arrow. Although the Wujin arrow did not fall off from the wall, the Wujin arrow was only inserted two inches by visual inspection.

You can know without thinking about it, even if Ling Zhen's artillery is brought over to bombard it, the rammed earth city wall can't do anything.

The reason why it is said that Bai Sheng encountered the most tenacious resistance since the beginning of the war is because in this tough battle, if one wants to break through Tongwan City, one can only attack through the gaps in the original city gates.

The enemy didn't have a magic arm bow, iron kite, or stepper, but they were able to defend the gap in the city wall. No matter who it was, as long as they approached it, they would be blown away by the enemies in the city.

Yes, it was knocked into the air, regardless of life or death, anyone who went up would be knocked into the air, regardless of the generals, and among these generals who were knocked into the air, at least two of Qiongying's men were included.

Bai Sheng immediately stopped attacking, because he saw that the enemy's strength was too strong, no matter judging from the flying height or distance of the beaten person, it proved that there was at least one peerless master in the city!

And it surpassed a peerless master like Li Biyun!

Can't you use Fire Attack?The answer is yes, firstly the city walls are not afraid of burning, secondly there are no flammable objects in the city, and thirdly, what worries Bai Sheng the most is that Fan Rui and Ma Ling's spells are not working.

Chapter 412 Om Mani Padme Hum

How did Fan Rui and Ma Ling's spells fail?Bai Sheng found the reason.

Whenever Fan Rui and Ma Ling cast spells, there would be a burst of Zen singing in Tongwan City: "Om Mani Padme Hum!"

This is the Zen singing of hundreds of people, and the sound spreads everywhere.In the dark, there seems to be a Buddha who came to the world, with a solemn treasure appearance, subduing demons and eliminating demons, and purifying all heresy spells in the world.

Bai Sheng remembered that Jigong in the TV series "Jigong" seemed to have chanted this mantra, and thought that this sentence still has this kind of use!If this is the case, then what's the use of Fan Rui and Ma Ling practicing Taoism?

When you meet an enemy who knows the way, you only need to say "Om Mani Padme Huo" and you're done.

But he didn't know that this mantra was not effective for anyone who recited it, only those monks with profound Buddhist teachings could cast this mantra.This is the same reason as if it is also a magic weapon in later generations, and it can only be effective after being consecrated by eminent monks.

This is how to do?There is no way to fight this battle!All the generals turned their eyes to Bai Sheng.

Hit and no hit.

The enemy did not go to the top of the city at all, and the long-range attack methods of one's own side lost the target.

And his army did not prepare siege equipment such as ladders and chariots, so they could not climb over the city wall and enter the city to attack.

He had already circled Tongwan City, and found that the lowest part of this ancient white earthen city was more than seven feet high, and ordinary soldiers would not be able to climb up to such a height.

There are only five people in our lineup who can cross the wall with lightness kung fu, and these five people are himself, Shi Qian, Lolida, Shui Ningzhu and Hu Sanniang.

But he didn't dare to take the four of them over the wall. If he was trapped inside, he wouldn't be able to escape even if he wanted to.

There is no need to think about rushing in from this gap.

I've tried it before, and the gap can't accommodate too many people charging side by side. On the other hand, ten or eight people are not worth it at all, and they are all beaten up. I don't know what kind of expert is hiding in the city. , in short, he thinks he has no ability to play this effect.

He didn't expect "mortar arrows". The archers did shoot one round, and only made the enemies in the city cry, but the second round had no effect. It can be imagined that the enemies were all sticking to the inner wall of the city wall to defend.
