Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Chapter 244 Breaking through Hongzhou

The night is getting darker and darker, and the officials and gentry in the government office of Hongzhou have gradually dispersed!

At this moment, there are only Ren Dejing and Li Siyi left here, Ren Dejing said: "General Li, you are living in the government office today! I have already ordered someone to prepare a room for you!"

Not only did he prepare the room, but he also prepared several beautiful concubines, of course these don't need to be shown on the surface!

"I want to go to the city wall to have a look!" Li Siyi said.

"Ah! It's so late!" Ren Dejing was taken aback.

"I just came to Hongzhou today, and I was about to take a look at the deployment of Hongzhou City! Besides, it was too boring to stay here just now, and now I want to go out and relax!" Li Siyi said.

"So, I will accompany the general to have a look on the city wall!" Ren Dejing said helplessly.

"Okay!" Li Siyi nodded.

At present, Ren Dejing and Li Siyi led dozens of guards towards the outside of the government office. At this moment, the city has become very quiet, and most of the people are already fast asleep! It was still snowing heavily in the sky, and not long after walking, the two of them already had "white hair" on one head!

When they came to the city wall, Ren Dejing couldn't help shrinking his neck when the cold wind howled, while Li Siyi took off his outer robe suddenly, as if he was enjoying the cold wind!

The two of them came to the city wall, and many Xixia soldiers had to come to the city wall too! These Xixia soldiers were originally guarding the city wall, but they were afraid of the cold, so they hid in their houses early at night! Now that the Lord is coming, they have to come out!

"General Li, there's information coming from ahead, saying that an army of Song people has appeared in the Helanyuan area!" Ren Dejing said.

"Song people's army? He Lanyuan? How is this possible?" Li Siyi shook his head!

"My lord! You still have to be careful!" Ren Dejing said.

"Now the little emperor in Guanshan is facing threats from two sides, and he can't take care of himself! Do you think he should send a large army north at this time?" Li Siyi sneered.

"This... probably not!" Ren Dejing said.

Although Ren Dejing is a famous treacherous official in history, his wisdom is extraordinary! After thinking about it this way, he also felt that it was impossible, so he felt relieved now!

"This is really a picturesque country!" Li Siyi looked into the distance, and there was a vast snowfield in the distance, surrounded by an empty space, he suddenly sighed!

"That's right! The country is picturesque! People in Song Dynasty have words, and the country is picturesque, so many heroes at that time! In today's world, I don't know who is a hero!" Ren Dejing said.

"Jurchen Wanyan Zonghan, this is a hero! He fought with the Jurchen Taizu Wanyan Aguda for ten years and wiped out Daliao! Afterwards, he led an army of 100,000 to the south, occupied the Central Plains, captured two Han emperors, and established a world as big as the sky. If such a person is not a hero, there will be no heroes in the world! Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Loushi and others are also heroes among the Jurchens! As for the Han people, I can’t see a single hero now! Han people, after all They are the most cowardly race in the world! They have hundreds of millions of people, they have countless gold and silver, and they have powerful weapons like the god arm bow, but they are vulnerable! The Han people are like a big piece of fat, Khitan People can bite their bodies, Jurchens can bite their bodies, and our party members can naturally bite them too!" Li Siyi laughed loudly.

"The general is right!" Ren Dejing nodded.

"Hmph! It's a pity that I, Xixia, am not the same Xixia as before! When I first rose to power, Xixia was so brave and unparalleled in the world! Afterwards, your majesty implemented the Han system and Han Confucian culture, and Xixia was not as good as the previous generation! But no matter what , are much stronger than the Han people! This general has a grand ambition in his heart!" Li Siyi said fiercely.

"I don't know what kind of volunteer it is?" Ren Dejing asked.

"I want to lead the Xixia army to occupy the entire Guanshan, Hanzhong, Sichuan and Shu, and make great achievements! Even, our Xixia can occupy the entire world! In the future, this world will be the world of our party members! The Khitan population is only a few million. But it can dominate the north for more than a hundred years, and it is the largest country in the world! The Jurchens have a population of only a few hundred thousand, but they have occupied the Central Plains and forced the Han people to retreat to the south of the Yangtze River! The population of our party is not lower than that of Khitan, so why can’t we oppress the Han people? Can't they occupy the world?" Li Siyi said.

"What the general said is true! If our party is united as one, it is not impossible to occupy the world!" Ren Dejing said.

"I look forward to that day in my heart! I hope His Majesty will let us send troops soon!" Li Siyi said excitedly because he might have been drinking today!

They stayed here for a long time before leaving the city wall!

*** ***

At this moment, more than ten miles to the south of Hongzhou City, one hundred thousand Northern Shaanxi Forbidden Army has already arrived!

It was midnight, and Li Xianzhong had summoned all the commanders of the armies!

"One thousand warriors were drawn from each army, and a total of 10,000 warriors were drawn to form a death-defying army! This general will personally lead the army to attack from the south, and General Yanxian will lead the death-defying army to attack from the north when necessary! Within one night, I want to conquer Hongzhou and dedicate Hongzhou City to Your Majesty!" Li Xianzhong said.

During the daytime, countless spies had scouted the situation in Hongzhou City. At this moment, Li Xianzhong made a specific battle plan according to the situation in Hongzhou City! There is also a staff department in the military department. These are the most effective battle plans formulated by the military staff department in the shortest time, and Li Xianzhong has also approved it! Now he communicated these plans of attack!

"When fighting, everyone should move forward, and everyone must not retreat! This time is a national war, and it is related to the fate of our Song Dynasty! Whoever lags behind is a sinner of the country. I, Li Xianzhong, will never let go of those who lag behind. If you die for your country, you will be honored forever, but if you are greedy for life and afraid of death, you are a sinner of the nation, and you will be cast aside forever! Do you understand this truth?" Li Xianzhong shouted.

"The last general will naturally understand!" All the generals stood up one after another and said in unison.

"Very good! Prepare to attack the city!" Li Xianzhong said immediately.

The 100,000 Northern Shaanxi Forbidden Army began to move slowly!

In the snowy weather, under the reflection of the snow light, countless figures can be seen heading towards Hongzhou City! Above the snow field, this is an extremely terrifying scene!

Although the combat power of the Xixia people is mediocre, they are still much stronger than the Song army in the late Northern Song Dynasty. They still have some soldiers and horses guarding the four directions on the city wall! Immediately someone noticed this extremely horrifying scene!

A Xixia soldier yelled frantically: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Get up! Get up!"

Several other Xixia soldiers had already found the war drum, and started beating it frantically!

"what's going on?"

"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack!"

"What kind of enemy attack will there be at this time?"

The 30,000 Xixia soldiers in Hongzhou City got up one after another. They couldn't believe it. Who would dare to attack them at this time?

"What happened?" Li Siyi was already asleep, but was awakened by the sound of war drums, put on his clothes, put on his sword, and went outside!

"General, something is wrong! The enemy attacked!" A soldier shouted loudly.

"What? Enemy attack? Where is the enemy?" Li Siyi asked hastily.

"I don't know!" said the soldier.

Li Siyi was taken aback, he hurriedly led a group of guards towards the city wall!

When he reached the city wall, the Forbidden Army of Northern Shaanxi had already begun to attack the city!

The soldiers of the First Army have already set up the ladder and climbed towards it! Then the second army and the third army arrived one after another!

"It's from the Song Dynasty! My God! There are so many Song people! How is this possible? Hurry up and resist immediately!" Li Siyi said in shock.

"It's the Han people, don't be afraid! They are extremely weak! When the Western Army was there, they could still fight us! But now that the Western Army no longer exists, don't be afraid of them!" A Xixia general next to him said loudly.

"Yes! Don't be afraid of them! They are only Han Chinese!" More and more Xixia generals shouted!

More than 100,000 soldiers of the Imperial Army in northern Shaanxi frantically climbed towards the city wall ahead! Their comrade-in-arms fell to the ground, and they stepped forward on the corpse of their comrade-in-arms! All soldiers march forward bravely, no one lags behind! Many people are still struggling to climb up even though they are scarred!

After a while, the Xixia soldiers on the city wall finally brought in the defensive weapons such as boulders and Leimu, and Li Siyi was a little relieved!

This Hongzhou City is an important town on the southern border of Xixia. The city wall is extremely high and thick, and there are also a lot of supplies for defending the city! The barracks were also very close to the city wall, and in a short period of time almost all Xixia soldiers came to the city wall! If there is no accident, you should be able to defend this city!

The Song army had already climbed to the city wall, and the soldiers of Xixia immediately resisted. They wanted to kill these Song soldiers or push them down the city wall!

It's just that the fighting power of the Song Army is beyond their imagination. In their impression, the fighting power of the Song Army is not as good as them! But today, a Song army climbed onto the city wall and could almost fight three or more Xixia soldiers! Moreover, even though Song Jun was about to die and his intestines were leaking out, he was still trying his best to resist, and there was still a frightening and crazy fighting spirit in their eyes!

Li Siyi was more and more shocked, he couldn't believe it!

"Is this really a Song person? When the Jurchens invaded Xixia, the Jurchens were only so brave! Could it be that they were Han Chinese dressed up as Jurchens? But their costumes are too different from the Jurchens!" Li Siyi secretly said.

Li Xianzhong is standing on a high ground in the distance at the moment, he is judging the form of the battlefield, but his face also showed a surprised expression: "Why are the Xixia people so weak? They are too far from our Song army! I originally We have also prepared 10,000 death-death troops, ready to break through from the north, but now it seems that even without 10,000 death-death troops, we can take down Hongzhou City! Of course, the casualties will be a bit heavy in that case!"
