Come to Song Dynasty with the system

From the morning to the dark, Wang Xin's troops were exhausted.

The most important thing is that all the rations brought have been eaten up, and now the soldiers are fighting hungry.

The strength was unable to display [-]% of the usual strength, and the army suffered heavy losses after breaking through the siege in one day.

There were still 2 people in the morning, but now, there are only 5000 left.

Those who followed Wang Xin out of the city were all the elite of the Northern Army.

Every time a person dies, Wang Xin feels distressed.Now a full 5000 people have been killed in the battle, but looking back at the Liao people they killed, there are only more than 1000 and less than 2000 people.

Such a result made Wang Xin unable to be reconciled even if he died.

After dark, Wang Xin still wanted to use the cover of night to disperse and break through.But the Liao army seemed to have been prepared for a long time. Originally, only 3 people surrounded them. At night, the remaining [-] Liao troops also appeared on the periphery to strengthen the defense line.

The Liao people seemed to know that Wang Xin had no food in their hands. At this moment, they could only besiege but not attack, so they let Wang Xin and the others to toss about.

Every time Wang Xin issued an order to break out of the siege, he had to face the archers of the Liao army.After finally breaking through, when they rushed to the front of the Liao army, they had to retreat again because of insufficient troops and too much physical exertion, so they couldn't kill many enemies at all.

Every attack will lose a lot of troops.In the end, it won't hurt much of the Liao army. Such a style of play made Wang's confidence bleed.

These are all good sons from the northern border, many of them are elites in all battles, and many of them Wang Xin can even call out their names.

In normal times, for these sons and daughters, killing two or three Liao soldiers on the battlefield by one person is just a matter of leisure.But now, they died one by one on the way to the charge, without even seeing the enemy's shadow, and just died on the battlefield like this.

When soldiers go to the battlefield, those who really stand out are often those who are not afraid of death.

Because you are not afraid of death, it is possible to keep killing enemies in order to survive.On the contrary, those who are afraid of death dare not fight, but just want to run away and hide. In the end, you will be killed if you don't even have a chance to draw a knife.

It's one thing not to be afraid of death, but quite another to die under such a useless style of play.

Like this, not even giving yourself the chance to fight, just dying under the bow and arrow, dying under the exhaustion of strength, that is the result that every warrior who dares to fight does not want.

But now, they have no choice.

In the middle of the night, Wang Xin's army, which had charged four times, not only failed to find a direction to break through, but also killed more than 1000 people. At this moment, everyone's fighting spirit seemed to be exhausted.

After breaking through the siege several times, the military tent supplies did not know where they were lost, so he found a random mound, and Wang Xin sat down.

On the left and right of him are two deputies, General Xia Yuan and General Fang Jiugui.

The three of them sat back to back, looked up at the starry sky, and remained silent for a long time.

Some people say that after death, people will become stars in the sky, and become one of them to continue to shine on the earth.

The three of them don't know whether there will be many more stars in the sky tomorrow night, and whether they will be among them.

"General, are we abandoned?"

After an unknown amount of time, Fang Jiugui suddenly said something that seemed to have no beginning or end.

Are they abandoned?

Since the three clans invaded the border, they have been fighting alone almost all the time.

This is not to say that the reinforcements did not come, such as the Su Family Army led by Su Shi, or the Western Army led by Di Qing.

It's just that these reinforcements did not join them in the end.

After that, the imperial court had no reinforcements.

Fang Jiugui's sentence, whether we have been abandoned, refers to whether the imperial court will no longer send reinforcements.

"No, the imperial court still needs us to defend the northern border, and will not abandon us. As long as we persevere, reinforcements will definitely come." Wang Xin knew what Fang Jiugui meant, although he didn't think it would happen in a short time. , The imperial court will send new reinforcements, but at this time, he still has to speak out to comfort the generals.

Not for anything else, just because he is Wang Xin, he is the commander of the Hebei Route Army personally appointed by the officials and the court.

He was the highest military general in the Northern Territory of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Will it be?" Fang Jiugui chuckled.

This smile, I don't know if I'm laughing at those short-sighted court gentlemen.

Still laughing at my wishful thinking.

Some people in later generations juxtaposed Tang Zong and Song Zu's habits, and put the old Zhao family in the powerful column.

But is this really the case?

It was not the Zhao family that ended the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Rebellion, but Chai Jin.Zhao Kuangyin just picked up a bargain.

In fact, at that time, the Great Song Dynasty was established at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, and there were still military strengths, and there were also some generals with hundreds of battles.

But with the release of military power with a glass of wine, Song's military status has been in a weak position, and he never really raised his head.

Among other things, the Sixteen States of Yanyun have never taken back, which is enough to show the weakness of the Song Dynasty army.

Soldiers, living in the Song Dynasty, was originally a kind of sadness.

Emphasis on literature and restraint on martial arts made those who are truly capable not choose the path of military service.A few outstanding military figures, such as Di Qing, were frightened to death in history.

Yue Fei was even more murdered by an adulterer, and the twelve gold medals were recalled and killed in the storm pavilion.

In the Song Dynasty, civil servants could not see the strength of military generals and the rise of generals.

But whenever such a person appears, they will do everything possible to find a way to get rid of him, and even kill him at pain.

Tang, it is about relying on strong force, all nations come to worship.

In the Ming Dynasty, the king died in the country, and the emperor guarded the gate of the country.

Song, not to mention the smallest territory, won the battle with great difficulty, and would still lose money to the enemy.

The military generals born in the Song Dynasty are nothing but sorrow.

Fang Jiugui didn't know what he thought of, so he asked about the reinforcements out of emotion.

Wang Xin comforted him, but the other general Xia Yuan didn't say anything, maybe he didn't think that there would be reinforcements to rescue him.But he has been used to being suppressed by civil servants for a long time, and he will no longer resist, and will only obey the imperial court's orders.

Even though they knew it was a wrong decision, they would still obey.

Speaking of which, Xia Yuancai is more representative of the thoughts of most generals in Song Dynasty.They are used to obeying orders and being foolish and loyal.

I always think that the gentlemen in the court are the smartest, and they will definitely not see the Song Dynasty defeat.

But they don't know at all that those gentlemen only have their own interests in their eyes, and other people, including the national fortune of the Song Dynasty, will never be placed in their eyes.

It seems that during the reign of Renzong, some historians said that there were many famous officials in this era, that is, many famous civil servants.

But in fact, it's just that Renzong didn't have any decent opponents in his dynasty.

Once a powerful hero really appears, hehe, I am afraid that the Song Dynasty is just the Song Dynasty, and there will be no such thing as the Southern Song Dynasty.

The three generals were back to back. Although they were close together, they each had their own concerns in their hearts.

As time passed, Wang Xin seemed to have given up his plan to continue to break through, thinking about waiting until after dawn to look for opportunities.Or in the end, he was besieged by Liao soldiers and died.

Just when they had basically given up the idea of ​​breaking out, suddenly there were waves of commotion in their ears.

"There is movement."

Relying on his youth, Fang Jiugui was the first to stand up and looked towards the east.

Wang Xin and Xia Yuan also got up and looked towards the east together, and then Wang Xin's eyes gradually became angry.

"It's reinforcements, someone came to save us."

This time, Wang Xin spoke with incomparable certainty.

He said before that there would be reinforcements coming, but that was just words of comfort, in fact, even he himself would not believe it.

But this time, he believed it.Because he saw the chaotic Liao soldiers barracks in the distance.

"Assemble the army and fight to the east, hurry up!"

Although they don't know who is coming, since reinforcements are coming, they must seize this opportunity.

For those who have run out of food, this may be their last and only chance.

Liao army camp.

The besieged Wang Xin's troops seemed to have given up breaking out, which made the Liao army breathe a sigh of relief.

Finally, they can rest for a few hours. After dawn, they will tentatively attack Wang Xin's troops.

If it was normal, they might still be able to surround without fighting like this, but now, Su Shi appeared, which made Xiao Xiaoyou feel unconfident, and he decided to solve Wang Xin's troops first, so that they would have More to spare.

At that time, we can unite with the Xixia Army and fight Su Shi wholeheartedly.

For the war after dawn, the Liao army had just rested, and suddenly there was a news from a scout outside their camp, saying that a cavalry force with a number of over [-] suddenly came to their camp.

The east guard of the Liao army is Han Anbai, a member of the Han family among the seven surnames of the Liao army.

Han Anbai, who also just fell asleep, was woken up by his own soldiers and learned that an unknown enemy army was coming.

After getting up, putting on the armor, and picking up the hammer in his hand, Han Anbai left the camp and began to assemble the army.

"kill!"

On the outskirts of the camp, Ji Zhu led eight hundred black horses and rode in the lead, forming an arrow formation, coming like a broken bamboo.

This time, Ji Zhu didn't hold back his hands. He leaned on the horse, turned his speed to the maximum, held eight rounds in his hand, and shot fiercely at the Liao soldiers he could see from time to time.

This battle is all about speed.

Otherwise, the Liao army reacted. Once the army is overwhelmed and the troops are not superior, it will become a joke to quickly rescue Wang Xin's troops. , will become dangerous.

Taking the lead, Jiju, who became the vanguard, came first.On both sides of them are the second brigade and the temporary third brigade, guarding the safety of the two wings of the black cavalry.

After Ji Zhu, it was Di Qing's 7000 troops of the Western Army.

Di Qing has always been confident in his horse skills.
