Chapter 1361 Xilu and the Southern Army Division are about to change hands
Chapter 1361
Noritsuda took a deep breath. "You mean the civil strife of the Qinsheng Army? Where is Narendo Xianzong?"
"I really don't know about this last general. Now there are strife in the city of Gai Zhu, and there are battlefields everywhere. There are both the Captaining Army killing each other, and the Captaining Army attacking our Ula and the Southern Army. The entire City of Gai Zhu is already filled with blood, and the corpses are everywhere...
Moreover, there were also rebels from the Capture Army who opened the east gate and attracted a Song army that came out of nowhere, with a number of at least ten thousand. After learning that the Song army had entered the city, the general wanted to find Shangguan. Only then did he realize that all the lords had died in the chaos. In desperation, he was..."
The deputy sergeant looked at the smoke-filled Gaizhu City in horror, as if he could still hear the desperate wailing of the soldiers who were on the verge of death...
Noriyuta looked at that direction in a daze, and finally gritted his teeth. "You lead the way, take your book to take a look..."
"General, do you really want to go back?" The deputy general looked at the hundreds of cavalry brought by Norihoda, and looked back at the way he came, and couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
"Why, do you want to disobey?" Nori Yuda's expression couldn't help but sank and asked coldly.
In desperation, the deputy general could only turn his horse's head with resentment, lead the way first, and slowly head towards the direction of Gai Zhucheng.
It took more than ten miles but it didn't take much time. But when it was a few miles away from Gaizhu City, Yelixiongda could already see the bright red flag of Song State that had risen above the city wall, floating high above the city wall.
Yelixiongda closed his eyes in despair and turned his horse's head resolutely. In the Southern Army's commander Gaizhu City, Liu Xiao, the commander of the Lanzhou defense of the Great Song Dynasty, was standing on the east gate of Gaizhu City, stroking his long beards, looking at Gaizhu City, which was still fighting and shaking the sky, and the face was as solemn as iron.
"General, the South Gate and the North Gate have been captured. Now how can the Ximen still remain? It is controlled by the remaining Xixia soldiers? Should our army take down the Ximen and trap these Xixia people in the city?"
"No need to do this, Ximen will be held by those Xixia. However, General Xu, you lead two thousand cavalry to cruis outside the Ximen, strangle the remaining enemies who dare to gather together, so that they will not have the chance to reorganize their troops."
As military orders were issued one by one, more and more Song troops rushed into the city. At this time, Liu Xiao finally saw Renduo, the commander of the Xixia Capture Army, wearing a helmet and armor, wrapped in a blood-red cloth strip, on his left arm.
"Submitted General Renduo Xianzong, pay homage to General Liu of the Supreme Kingdom." Renduo Xianzong, who was covered in armor and war robe, rushed to Liu Xiao and bowed.
Liu Xiao quickly helped him up. "General Renduo doesn't have to be like this. Liu has been famous for a long time. He is indeed a hero like your father. What's the situation now?"
"The commander of the Southern Army and Wei Mingdun, deputy commander of the Southern Army Fang Dangnuo, and the commander of the Military Supervisor Wei Mingyanchang have all been awarded the title. Now, most of the troops of the Southern Army and the Southern Army in Zhucheng have surrendered and are still fighting stubbornly."
Liu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "It is all due to the achievements of your father and son..."
The Urala and Gaizhu City of the Southern Army Office blocked the Song Dynasty to the south side of the Hexi Corridor, and was only 120 miles away from Lanzhou, a strategic location connecting the northwest states of the Song Kingdom, forcing the Song Dynasty to station heavily in Lanzhou to guard against the Western Xia.
If Lanzhou is in a loss, then the northwest states will inevitably become isolated islands. The Song Dynasty had thought about seizing the city of Gai Zhu. Unfortunately, for so many years, the Song Dynasty has been using a defensive move against the Western Xia.
Defence is difficult, not to mention the attack. Now, Renduo Zongbao, a famous general who was famous in the Western Xia, has surrendered to the Song Dynasty, and even asked his son to present such a gift to the Song Dynasty. This really surprised Liu Xiao, who had been stalemate with Huilu and the Southern Army for nearly ten years, was very happy.
Taking down the Gaizhu City of the Southern Army Division was equivalent to pulling out a nail that was deeply rooted in the south of the Hexi Corridor. Not only did the Song Dynasty finally reach into this land for the first time after Xixia controlled most of the Hexi Corridor.

In the north, Xi Fengkun, the commander of the Shangwei City, who belonged to the Shun Army of the Right Chamber, received the military order from Weiming Awu, personally led the 1,500 cavalry of Shangwei City to cross the Tutu River and galloped towards the south.
However, what he did not expect was that when he came to the grazing place that originally belonged to the Renduo tribe, there was only a messy and messy place.
Xi Fengkun stood aside with a blue face and rode his horse. It was obvious that the Renduo clan had received some news that he would give up this plump pasture and migrate away in panic.
Soon, he received a report from his subordinates, pointing out the direction of Renduo's departure, Xi Fengkun once again led more than a thousand cavalry and ran towards the southeast direction...
However, less than two quarters of an hour after they left, a figure came out from the hole hidden in the messy land with admiration, and then knocked down a obviously dry tree.
A quarter of an hour later, a scout cavalry disguised as a Western Xia herd of horses led an empty horse and rushed to the lurker. The two of them joined together and headed towards the southwest.
Not long after, a partial division composed of two thousand cavalrymen was adorned with the Western Xia cavalry from Shengwei City. Xi Fengkun, who was running all the way, never thought that there would be a Song army behind his butt.
#####
After running wildly for nearly half a day, Xi Fengkun finally led 1,500 elite cavalry to catch up with the slow-moving team, but the number seemed to be a little small.
Perhaps it should be the last group that left. Xi Fengkun had no time to think about it, so he immediately ordered to start the attack. Since he had seen it, he had to take action. Even if he couldn't stop all the Renduo clans, he had to explain to the king and Wei Ming Awu.
Just as the Western Xia cavalry were waving their swords and roaring and galloping towards the scattered team, suddenly, the herdsmen who were originally wrapped in thick leather robes and looked very bloated and afraid of the cold all lifted off their leather robes, revealing the shiny iron armor below...
"It's the Song army, not the herdsman!" The sharp-eyed Western Xia cavalry exclaimed immediately, and the original assault formation suddenly stopped.
Seeing at least nearly 3,000 iron-armored Song cavalry in front of him gathering in a formation, and looking at the Xixia warriors who were tired of horses around him, Xi Fengkun finally made a decision that he thought was wise: retreat.
The thousand five hundred cavalry under Xifeng Kun are not the elite Western Xia dynasty. There are less than five hundred people wearing iron armor. Using these thousand five hundred cavalry to attack the opponent's 3,000 armored cavalry is simply a way to die.
