Xia Jun camp! There was dead silence.

Everyone looked at Pingxia City in shock. Tens of thousands of Xixia soldiers participated in the attack, but less than 7,000 were able to return safely.

"Is this a firearm?"

Liang Yibu said in disbelief that it was no secret that the Song Army had firearms. All along, the Song Army's firearms only produced some poisonous smoke or some noise, but were of no use at all.

But this time, Pingxia City's firearms refreshed their understanding of firearms. With the huge sound and powerful lethality, even the iron kite wearing heavy armor was still vulnerable to the firearms.

Empress Dowager Liang bit her silver teeth secretly and angrily said: "Five thousand people, in just two days, my Xixia man has already killed and injured five thousand people!"

Since Pingxia City is located in the hinterland of Xixia, it is impossible to capture Song people as strong men and die as usual. Those who carry the earth and fill the trenches are Xixia soldiers. In addition, due to the damage caused by several consecutive battles on the city, especially the first appearance of Zhentian Lei, The unsuspecting Xixia soldiers suffered heavy casualties. The war had just begun, and the Xia army had already lost five thousand people, which made them extremely sad.

What made Empress Dowager Xiaoliang even more heartbroken was that the most elite iron kite in the Xixia army also suffered heavy casualties.

"Queen Mother, calm down! I won't let the Song army succeed until I don't investigate for a while." Liang Yibu said in denial.

"First there were divine arm crossbows, and then there were firearms. This time the Song Army built Pingxia City, everything is weird." Nendo Baozhong said bitterly with his arm bandaged.

The reforms of the Song Dynasty doctors naturally spread to Xixia, and concepts such as disinfection were also popular in Xixia. After Renduo Baozhong was bandaged, he was no longer seriously injured.

"Replace defense with attack!" Weiming Awu said solemnly.

The generals of Xixia couldn't help but nod. Whether it was the location of Pingxia City, or the divine arm crossbows and thunder-like firearms, they were all extremely lethal. The Xia army suffered heavy casualties, much higher than those in previous sieges. The changes in the Song army were obvious. It came from one person, the evil doctor Fan Zheng, the supervisor of Pingxia City.

"Evil doctor Fan Zheng!"

Empress Dowager Xiaoliang gritted her teeth and said that she once admired Fan Zheng's medical skills and poetry very much, and thought that after breaking the city, she would leave Fan Zheng alive and let him work for her.

Now this idea has long since disappeared, replaced by the overwhelming hatred for Fan Zheng.

"The city of Pingxia is no longer accessible. I ask the Queen Mother to withdraw her troops for the time being and plan for it slowly." Weiming Awu solemnly requested.

Liang Yibu angrily scolded Weiming Awu: "How dare you shake the morale of the army!"

Weiming Awu smiled bitterly and said: "Does the Prime Minister know how many thunderous firearms and how many divine arm crossbows are still in Pingxia City? Our army has only attacked for two days and has lost five thousand people. If this continues, I Xixia How many casualties will it take for the man to capture Pingxia City?"

Empress Dowager Xiaoliang suddenly looked embarrassed. Five thousand people were attacked in two days. If the attack lasted for ten or twenty days, wouldn't it mean that Xia's army would lose forty to fifty thousand people, and there was no guarantee that it could break through.

Liang Yibu angrily said: "So what if we retreat? Once we retreat, the Song army will invade the Jingsai Army Division, and the fertile fields at the foot of Tiandu Mountain will be under the threat of the Song army and will be completely deserted."

The generals of Xixia were silent. Xixia was a nomadic people who were born in Dangxiang. Their food depended entirely on the Jingsai Military Division in the south and the fertile fields of the Hetao Plain. Once Pingxia City is established, half of Xixia's grain production will be threatened. This is a pain that Xixia cannot bear.

"We can't retreat!" Nidoho Chuichi gritted his teeth.

"Ah!" Weiming Awu looked at Renduo Baozhong in disbelief. Didn't he know how many Xixia men had to die to capture Pingxia City? "

Renduo Baozhong looked at the wound on his arm and reluctantly said: "Once we retreat, the Song Dynasty will build countless Pingxia cities on the border of Xixia. Do we have to retreat next time?"

Weiming Awu suddenly fell silent.

obviously! If Xixia cannot find a way to crack Pingxia City, I am afraid that the Song army will use Pingxia cities one by one to completely besiege Xixia.

"Have you ever discovered any reinforcements from the Song Army?" Empress Dowager Xiaoliang frowned.

Liang Yibu shook his head and said: "No reinforcements from the Song Army have been found yet."

Empress Dowager Xiao Liang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Send the order, no matter the cost, Pingxia City must be captured before the reinforcements of the Song Army arrive." Empress Dowager Xiao Liang said firmly.

"Yes!"

The Xixia generals looked at each other and nodded heavily.

Everyone knows that Pingxia City is related to the national destiny of Xixia. If Pingxia City cannot be removed, Xixia will not only be unable to make the Song Dynasty surrender, but the offensive and defensive momentum will change, and it will be Xixia's turn to be beaten passively.

Weiming Ah Wu nodded helplessly and said, "I have a plan to defeat Pingxia City."

"Sir Weiming, please speak!" Empress Dowager Xiaoliang followed the good advice.

"Pingxia City was built with rammed earth and took twenty days to complete. Its walls are definitely not thick. If our soldiers burst into the city wearing heavy armor and holding giant axes, with the support of the Poxi Army and the Divine Arm Crossbow, we will definitely be able to defeat it. Cut through the city wall and invade Pingxia City." Weiming Ah Wuyi gritted his teeth.

"Can you give it a try?" Xixia generals' eyes lit up.

At this moment, the war drums were beating, and the Xixia army once again attacked the city regardless of casualties.

The Song army had previous experience, and the divine arm crossbow once again exerted great power, causing huge casualties to the Xixia army.

Suddenly, a small group of Western Xia iron kites, armed with giant axes and shields, rushed straight to the Pingxia City wall and dug directly into the Pingxia City wall.

"not good!"

Yang Weizhong was shocked when he saw this. He personally participated in the construction of Pingxia City. Naturally, he knew that the walls of Pingxia City were not protected by city bricks and were all made of rammed earth. Once a hole was dug out that could accommodate it, it would be a thousand-mile embankment. Destroyed in an anthill.

"Use it quickly, Sky-shattering Thunder!"

At that moment, the thunder was ignited and thrown on the head of the iron kite that was cutting the city wall.

However, Tie Yaozi was already prepared. The huge shield formed a sharp angle, and the thunderbolt landed on the shield and was bounced far away.

"Boom! Boom!"

Although the thunder is extremely powerful, it is far away from the wall-cutting iron kite and blocked by the giant shield, so its lethality is extremely limited.

"blocked!"

Weiming Awu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. As long as they were given a short time to carve out a hole in the earth wall to accommodate the body, he would be sure to expand the hole until it was drilled through. Pingxia City, rushed into the city.

"Hurry up and ask the supervisor!" Zhong Pu was shocked when he saw this. The thundering thunder was created by the supervisor. Now that the thunder has been restrained, he naturally asked the supervisor Fan Zheng for help.

The messenger immediately rushed to the city and returned soon, holding a roll of iron wire with a strange expression.

"What does the supervisor mean?" Zhong Pu frowned. At such a critical moment, Fan Zheng, as the supervisor, not only remained indifferent, but instead sent a roll of iron wire.

The messenger said truthfully: "General, all you need to do is tie the Thunderbolt to the iron wire and hang it above the head of the iron kite that is cutting the wall, and the crisis will be resolved immediately."

"Wonderful!" Zhong Pu exclaimed as he slapped the table.

The Thunder is not weak in power. Tie Yaozi uses his shield to deflect the Thunder away, greatly reducing the power of the Thunder. However, Xixia wants to penetrate the city wall and rush under the city wall. Hanging the Thunder from the iron wire can make the Thunder The sky thunder exploded above Tie Yaozi's head. At such a close distance, whether it was the thunderous sound or the shrapnel flying with the impact, it was fatal.

Then, sparks appeared one by one, and Zhentianlei hung down from the city wall along the iron wire.

The iron kite under the shield looked at the thunder above his head, and suddenly the soul of the dead came out.

Accompanied by a huge roar, groups of iron kites digging into the earth walls suffered heavy casualties, and the danger of Pingxia City was immediately resolved.
