Chapter 918

Soon, the messenger rushed to report that the city wall near the East Gate was blown up by the Song army with gunpowder and collapsed several feet, and a large number of Song army were pouring into the city from the gap.

After hearing this news, the first thought in Jie Eyu's mind was over. Bai Chicheng would definitely not be able to defend it. Because the voices of the Great Song Wansheng loudly and the sound of hooves like thunder rolling, it indicates that the main force of the Song army he was afraid of had already been killed...

The defenders near the bombed city wall in the East Gate would be directly bombed into the sky, or they would be injured, deaf, and stupid.

A considerable number of Xixia soldiers who were slightly far away threw down their weapons and ran away with their heads. As the three thousand iron armored Yuanyou soldiers rushed in, they directly stopped the Xixia reinforcements who were just coming here.

"Give it to me! Hurry up! Take the east gate, open the city gate, and welcome the army into the city!" Zhe Keshi lifted the facial guard, wiped the sweat from his face, and raised the bloody long sword and shouted fiercely.

Hundreds of Yuanyou soldiers followed the direction he pointed, like red-hot knife cutting into butter, piercing the Xixia soldiers' front that was intended to block the gap, and then headed towards the city gate without stopping.

The Yuanyou armored soldiers in the rear rushed in frantically, filling the vacant space and continuing to expand the battlefield...

When Jie Euyu led his personal soldiers to the vicinity of the East Gate, he heard a burst of excited shouts from the Song Dynasty Wansheng. He looked up suddenly and saw that the blood-colored battle flag of the Song Dynasty had already been inserted into the city tower on the east gate, and at this moment, the east gate was slowly being pushed open.

Looking at the figures of the Song army cavalry riding on mounts, wearing heavy armor and holding spears outside the east gate that had been stretched out nearly a few feet wide.

Yuuyu stopped hesitating and immediately turned his horse's head. "Tell me to order me to open the west gate, and the entire army retreated, retreat!"

The Song army broke into Baichi City like a wolf or a tiger, while the Western Xia soldiers and horses had no intention of fighting and had no morale. The resistance encountered by more than 50,000 Song troops in Baichi City were almost slim.

In just less than an hour and a half, Baichi City had changed its ownership, and all four sects were under the control of the Song army.

However, when Jie Eiyu saw that the old slip-on was not good, he ordered the retreat westward. In addition, the dark night was dark, and the goal of Zhong Shidao and Zhe Keshi was to capture Baichi City, which allowed Jie Eiyu to lead the remaining troops to go safely.

Even so, more than a thousand corpses were left inside and outside Baichi City. When the day was bright, all the remaining enemies inside and outside Baichi City had been wiped out, and Baichi City once again returned to the warm and hot embrace of the Song Dynasty.

"Baichicheng, Zhe is back..." Standing on the head of Baichicheng, his face was full of fatigue, and he still couldn't hide his excitement. Zhe Keshi was in a very comfortable mood. This battle was really exciting and clean enough.

"It's a pity that Na Jie Eyu and the defenders of Bai Chicheng got out..." Compared to Zhe Keshi, Zhong Shidao seemed to be a little impressed.

The 55,000 army captured Baichi City and captured the city, but killed few enemies, which was a small regret.

"If you leave, just leave. Anyway, Baichicheng, the iron gate has fallen into my Song Dynasty's hands." Zhe Keshi smiled and felt that a man who is easy to satisfy is better.

However, after only a long time of happiness, Zhe Keshi's expression became helpless again. He patted the walls of Baichi City with some annoyance. This castle made of earth was not of the same level as that of Yuzhou.

"I took down Baichi City, but this is only half the goal. Once the reinforcements from the Liao Kingdom arrive, we will still have to return to Youzhou. At that time, this place may be occupied by the Western Xia bandits again."

When Zhong Shidao heard this, he couldn't help but smile. "Take it back? Then they must have the courage to do so. Didn't we receive the military newspaper before? There was a large army threatening the south of Xingqing Prefecture on Qinfeng Road in the south."

"At this time, they dare to divide their troops unless the Xixia king Li Ganshunzhen thought that the troops in his hands were still the elite Xixia who had experienced many battles and had a strong fighting spirit last year."

This is true. Most of the elite soldiers of the Western Xia were squatting in the prisoner-of-war camps of the Song Dynasty and eating candy and swallowing vegetables every day. They also had to pick up hoes to spread their youth and sweat for the Song Dynasty's infrastructure cause.

There are not many elite troops left now. I am afraid that the only one that is still intact is the only army that guards Xingqing Prefecture, the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom.

Nowadays, many of the soldiers in Xixia are temporarily recruited, and many of them are retired veterans. Although they are experienced, they are too old.

There is a saying that the older the world, the less courageous it is. The veterans who have long retired and are forced to join the army again because of the current crisis in Xixia, think more about it. I am afraid that it is not like this to win, but how can we survive and go home to enjoy our grandchildren and raise our youth.

As for those young people in Xixia who were summoned to the army at a young age, the typical new melon seeds can support themselves to become mature and experienced elites on the battlefield. I am afraid that it will take more than ten wars and bloody lessons to mature.

"The thing that we should be most troubled now is not that the Xixia people will come to seize Baichi City, but that we should consider how to restore the wall of Baichi City to its original state. Don't forget that there is a wall in the east city that you have blown up."

"What's the point? Use Yuanyou Cement. That thing is the most useful thing for Ganggang."

"Well... it's right, but Zhong Mou wanted to ask you, where did we get Yuanyou Cement?" Zhong Shidao looked at Zhe Keshi in front of him with an admiring and mentally retarded look.

Zhe Keshi was stunned for a long time before gently thrusting himself into the ear. "Damn, his grandma, when he came here, he even brought a lot of gunpowder, why did he forget this thing..."

Seeing this guy's appearance, Zhong Shidao shook his head helplessly. "Forget it, General Xu, you lead your troops to Xinyanzhou and go there to ask them to transport some food and supplies, especially Yuanyou Cement, to get at least a thousand bags, do you understand?"

"The last general will obey the order." General Xu took the order very happily and led a thousand elite cavalry in his headquarters to gallop south.

On the third day, just as the people were following the road, carrying a large amount of supplies towards Baichi City, the 200,000 reinforcements from the Liao Kingdom finally arrived at Xiazhou, located in the middle and lower reaches of Wuding River at a speed that surpassed Britain and the United States.

At this time, the 70,000 reinforcements from Shaanxi Road in the Song Dynasty had already arrived in Hongzhou. At this moment, Longzhou, which was surrounded by the Song army, was already under the fierce attack of tens of thousands of Song troops.
