Chapter 502 Surprise
"Zichun, how did Wang Zhizhou know about Qu Zhen?" Liu Wenrun asked in wonder.
"I don't know anything," Wang Shao was puzzled.
Wang Ju wrote a letter to Wang Shao, and quickly delivered the letter to Wang Shao with a fast horse. The letter mainly borrowed Miao Shu from Wang Shao.
This requirement is easy to understand. When Miao Su was able to go to Sanyuan, it was Wang Ju's suggestion. The two were very familiar with the two, and Miao Su was also very familiar with Zheng Baiqu's Poche Army. Now the Huanqing Road is fighting, and it is normal for Wang Ju to borrow Miao Su to increase the strength of the Song army.
However, Wang Ju borrowed several more people in the letter, such as Zhang Shouyou. Zhang Shouyou became famous very early and could fight, but Zhang Shouyou was the chief magistrate of Qinzhou. Can he borrow it? Moreover, Wang Shao did not make the decision alone in Qinzhou. Although his "word" has the right to act cheaply, he was actually constrained by the governor of Qinzhou.
But now it's better. Wang Anshi was afraid that another Li Shizhong would appear in Qinzhou, so he transferred Han Zhen to Qinzhou. Everyone is his own people, so don't make trouble again.
But even Han Zhen would not agree to borrow Zhang Shouyou to Qingzhou.
Therefore, Wang Shao omitted the loan from himself and did not consider it. However, Wang Ju borrowed two more generals, one of which was Zhao Long, a native of Qinzhou. At this time, he served as the commander of the archer on the edge and was very brave. However, because he had not participated in the battle, his reputation was not obvious.
I don’t know where Wang Ju heard about it.
Then borrow it.
However, the other person puzzled him, that was Qu Zhen. He sent someone to inquire for a while before he found out that Qu Zhen. After Liu Wenrun came to Qinzhou, he selected generals, so he gathered the heroes of the countryside together, and then hung a copper coin a hundred steps away. He also held a sword. It is said that it was the best Taoxi sword worth more than 300 s.
OK. Wang Shao also has a Taoxi sword, and that one doesn't matter.
Then Liu Wenrun said, "Everyone, whoever can shoot this copper coin will give this sword to whom." At this time, Qu Zhen stood up and hit the arrow. This archery technique is too clever. You have to know how big a copper coin can be a hundred steps away?"
This difficulty is undoubtedly the real one.
At this time, Liu Wenrun was guarding Guwei Village. Liu Wenrun was very grateful for Qu Zhen's archery skills, so he brought Qu Zhen to his side as a personal guard and deliberately trained him. The man was in Guwei Village, but Wang Shao and Liu Wenrun were puzzled, how did Wang Ju know Qu Zhen?
Miao Shu said on the side: "I heard that Qu Zhen has been fond of practicing martial arts since he was a child. Once he went to the border with his uncle to hunt, but suddenly he was surrounded by a group of Xia people. Qu Zhen broke out of the siege, but when he turned around, he saw that his uncle did not break through, so he went back again. He rescued his uncle from more than 100 Xia people. This incident became a popular topic in the local area. Perhaps Ming Gong also heard about this. Therefore, he borrowed it."
This is possible. After all, the soju shop is equivalent to Wang Ju's. Many managers often go to Qinzhou to trade with foreigners. Perhaps these managers heard about it, and then they reached Wang Ju's ears.
"So what about this person?" Wang Shao asked.
It is not about martial arts, but about military affairs. Since Wang Ju deliberately borrows it, he will at least make Qu Zhen a minor general. Without military talent, it is still not possible to have martial arts alone.
"Zhong." Liu Wenrun said.
Qu Zhen is someone he appreciates. Of course, Liu Wenrun also hopes that Qu Zhen will make a name for himself, but if he wants to make a name for himself, he has to fight on the battlefield. So what battlefield is easier to make military achievements than this battle in Qingzhou? Therefore, Liu Wenrun asked again: "Will Qingzhou defeat the enemy this time?"
"Breaking back? You underestimated Wang Zi'an." Wang Shao said happily.
Whether it was Wang Shao, Zhang Feng, or Miao Shu and Liu Changzuo, they all overestimated Wang Ju. Although Wang Shao was full of confidence, even Wang Shao did not dare to overtake his military talents above Wang Ju.
This principle...is nothing to say.
But Wang Ju really values Wang Shao very much and is full of kindness. He even mentioned one thing in this important letter, that is, many residing generals died of cervix, such as Di Qing, later famous generals Xu Da, and Wang Shao.
But what is this back cervix? It is a poisonous sore. Why does this fatal poisonous sore cause? First, it is the result of the heat of the weather. Especially for soldiers, they still wear armor when the weather is hot and march in some places with heavy humidity, which is easy to produce fatal poisonous sores. Another situation is that if they are hit by a sword, the rust will infect the wound, causing severe inflammation of the wound and causing fatal poisonous sores.
Therefore, Wang Ju was very upset in his letter and explained in detail the cause of cervical cervical sausage. He also said that after the war, he had to use special soy wine to clean the wound immediately and apply ointment, which would reduce the chance of wound inflammation and would not be prone to cervical sausage.
In history, Wang Shao's back cervix was very miserable. It is said that he would rot his flesh so hard that his bones were seen, and he died of illness. This reason is mostly nothing to do with dampness and heat, because Wang Shao's main battlefield is in Xihe. But Wang Shao likes to charge and get motivated. Although doing so will inspire morale, it may be because of this reason that his body is injured and his wounds become inflamed, and that kind of malignant back cervix appears.
This is a pity.
If Wang Shao had not died as early as in history, Zhang Feng was growing rapidly, and the generals were growing rapidly under Wang Ju. A few years later, the Song Dynasty would no longer have to worry about the generals.
However, Wang Shao found it a bit funny and didn't care too much.
"oh."
"Liu Dujian, the victory or defeat is not in Qingzhou, but in Huangzhou."
"What do you mean?" Liu Wenrun was stunned.
"The information I just received said that Dong Wen began to assemble the three armies. Why did he assemble the three armies? Lanzhou, Liangzhou."
"I understand. At this time, the troops in Hexi in Xixia are empty, so Dong Wen gathered the three armies and took the opportunity to plunder. In that case, Xixia would inevitably withdraw the Qingzhou army. Once it is withdrawn, Wang Zi'an will defeat the Xia army."
"That's right." However, Wang Shao was not sure how Wang Ju defeated the 300,000 troops of Xixia. However, when Wang Ju borrowed his generals and soldiers, he could guess that Wang Ju was having a lot of fun this time. He also said: "Dong Wen has no good intentions. Xixia has transferred troops from Hexi very early. He has not gathered until now. This is intentional to let Xixia fight with our dynasty's army, so as to plunder more wealth at the lowest cost."
This must be explained clearly, otherwise, if the Bianxi River is opened by itself in the future, the court will not allow anyone to use this to make a fuss. It depends on how loyal the Tubo is. But how did our Song Dynasty repay it? At this point, his ideas are surprisingly consistent with Wang Ju.
However, Wang Shao was not angry. Just like the battle between Tubo and Xixia, the Song Dynasty's practice was also to watch the tiger fight. When Western Xia came to the Song Dynasty, Yusilu was also happy to watch the excitement. This is the truth of the alliance between Tubo and Song Dynasty.
It turns out that he regarded Lao Ye as Jin Da and Hu Zhihu. However, although this understanding is a bit biased, Tubo's attitude towards the Song Dynasty was indeed worse than that of each generation.
"I wonder if the prince expected it?"
"I expected it, and I asked about this in the letter." Wang Shao said. Before the war, Wang Ju and Zhang Feng guessed it, but Wang Shao also guessed it, so he sent a scout to sneak into Qingtang. Otherwise, there would have been no information so soon, after all, there was a big Hezhou in the middle.
Since Wang Ju is so capable, no matter how high the chance of winning a complete victory in this battle is, Liu Wenrun will not stop him. He immediately sent someone to call Qu Zhen.
But this time Wang Shao also brought Wang Ju a small surprise, that is, the long-trained Five Hundred Families.
The number of people cannot be too many. At this time, the most important thing is to win time, so the group will set off soon, rush to Qinzhou to rest in the evening, and set off again tomorrow morning. If the road is good, find a way to rush to Jingzhou to rest. If the road is not good, you can only rest in Longzhou. However, no matter what, you must rush to Ningzhou the day after tomorrow. However, with more troops, rest at night is a big problem. Whether it is Longzhou or Jingzhou, there are no more inns, so you have to prepare tents, dry food, and other supplies, and the speed will automatically slow down.
Although there are few people, they are all tigers.
Five hundred and eight people rode eastward, and Wang Shao watched them go away, but he was also thinking about a "little abacus" in his heart. He wanted to drive the border Hehuang, but he needed effective generals to help, but he didn't know very well that those generals could fight and those generals could not fight. Then this battle in Qingzhou was the best place to verify.
If Wang Ju can borrow, he can also "borrow".
…………
Liang Yiming still didn't think of a good idea. He used a bump into the city gate with a bump in the wood, but on the tower, he could see that the Song people had already blocked the city gate with sandbags. We didn't have to leave the city and just stayed in the village.
Either hit the city wall, not to mention the impact of the Xixia wood, or lifting the carefully built car of the Song Dynasty, it would not be possible to threaten the city wall of Rouyuan Village.
If you want to attack the city, you might as well climb to the city.
Liang Yiming also had a tiger-received cannon in his hand, but the problem is that the stone bomb is smaller and has little lethality. The stone bomb is larger and the ejection speed is slow and the range is not far. The only ones that really play a role are those large tiger-received cannons.
On the contrary, more than 30 large and small tiger cannons in Rouyuan Village, combined with thunderbolt bullets, killed a large number of Western Xia soldiers.
If there are a hundred large tiger cannons in your hand, that would be great. Liang Yi thought to himself. It is impossible to say that this is wrong.
However, the parts of the Huju gun nowadays are complex and the manufacturing difficulty has also increased. The technology has long exceeded the level of Xixia. If Xixia wants to imitate it, God knows that it will take to achieve it in one year?
So Liang Yi buried an order early in the morning, and no matter who was standing on the city wall, everyone would be lenient.
Thousands of prisoners of war stood on the top of the city, which really made morale fall.
Therefore, the most urgent task is not to attack the city, but to kill these prisoners of war with the fastest speed so that the three armies will not be scruples. Then they immediately ordered to cover the shield with their shield hands, and the three armies dug up and down again to increase the earth mountain.
Anyway, the city gates of the Song people were blocked, so there was no need to worry about them leaving the city to attack.
So from the second half of the night, the three Western Xia armies raised the earth mountains in a mighty manner. It cannot be said that Liang Yi was burying and struggling, and there were many troops. Just like Ming Hao attacked Beizhou City, he could play whatever he wanted.
But Liang Yimeng didn't know about this. Minghao had a good time, but in the end, he still failed to capture Beizhou City.
But a few hours later, the two earthen mountains did rise by nearly one meter, almost equal to the city head of Rouyuan Village.
"If this continues, Rouyuan Village is a bit dangerous." An instructor said worriedly.
If the height of Tushan definitely exceeded the height of Rouyuan Village, then the Song army would lose this condescending advantage in an instant.
"Don't worry," Li Sangou said happily.
If Liang Yibu was really playing like this, he would be more than happy. Although there were Xixia crossbows in Xixia, the excellent Xixia crossbows were really small, and most of them were earth bows prepared by soldiers themselves. Therefore, these two earthen mountains must be very close to the city wall. Xixia carried soil and raised the earthen mountains, which was so close. Can the Song army not fight back? Just like in the middle of yesterday night, in order to raise this meter, at least three or four Xia soldiers were shot by Song soldiers and fell down.
Although the enemy has a large number of troops, he can continue to increase the earth mountain, but the speed is very slow under the harassment of the Song army's bows and arrows. Moreover, the soil is frozen now, and it is difficult to get mud. When they increase the height to the absolute height, it is still unknown that six days and seven days have passed. Can Liang Yimang be so arrogant after six or seven days?
Liang Yimang also saw that it was too slow to continue like this. He did not think that hundreds of thousands of Xia troops would be in danger six or seven days later, but he couldn't wait, so after it dawned, he ordered the construction of the mountain to stop and let the archers climb the earthen mountain under the cover of the shield soldiers.
Groups of Xia army carried the siege ladders and moved closer to the city wall.
If you don’t build mountains, you will attack the city instead.
That's easy to do, Li Sangou happened to prepare a big surprise for the people of Xixia. (To be continued...)
