Chapter 799: Into the Han Sea

"Lord Shoufu has pity on a beggar and wants to summon him into the mansion, and it is understandable!" Yuan Fang knocked on the table and said slowly: "Aren't you a housekeeper, then exercise your authority, didn't that man say that he is from Pingzhou, look at him from Pingzhou, who is his surname, who lives in that village and that tun, who is in the neighborhood, check it clearly, everything is correct, then it doesn't matter!" ”

"Yes, the next official will do it immediately. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info The butler saluted and turned to leave.

Weizhou, the edge of the Hanhai Sea.

The weather is extremely cold, the wind rolls up the wind and sand, hitting the armor, equipment, making a rustling sound, people can't open their eyes at all, the 20,000 troops have been here for three days, but the wind still hasn't stopped, Hanhai is completely shrouded in yellow sand fog, and the eye can see out, the visual distance is extremely short, such weather, it is impossible to step into the Hanhai at all, even if you force it in, you will get lost in the wind and sand.

Li Qing's team can be said to be armed to the teeth, wearing cotton jackets inside, iron armor on the outside, and cotton sleeves on the inside of the helmet, only the remaining two eyes are exposed, with cotton gloves on their hands, 20,000 people, in addition to the more than 10,000 cavalry of the Changsheng Battalion, one horse and two horses, one horse, one carrying water and dry food, even the infantry, they are also equipped with camels and horses for transportation, in addition, thousands of camels carry all kinds of baggage. Everything was ready, but bad natural weather held the army back.

"Lord, what should I do? I just asked the guide, in previous years, there were also strong winds and sand, and it was ten days and half a month at a time, if this has not stopped, what should we do, we are here to consume? Looking at the wind and sand in the sky, Wang Yan opened his eyes angrily and asked Li Qing beside him. Because of the condom on his face, his voice sounded a little muffled.

Li Qing shook his head, "I can only wait, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, maybe the wind and sand will stop, as soon as the wind and sand stop, we will set off immediately." ”

Listening to the howling of the wind and looking at the wind and sand rolling in the sky, Wang Yan shook his head worriedly, I hope God blesses, if once you enter the Hanhai, such a strong wind and sand will come again, it will cause great trouble to the troops. Looking at Li Qing's figure striding back, Wang Yan hurriedly followed.

In addition to Wang Yan's cavalry battalion, Li Qing's army transferred 10,000 foot soldiers from Lu Dalin's group, in order to ensure Li Qing's safety, Lu Dalin took out all the things at the bottom of the box, and these 10,000 foot soldiers were the elite of Lu Dalin's group.

Sitting in the tent, hearing the sound of wind and sand outside, Li Qing was also worried, outside, he was full of confidence, but when he returned to the tent, his heart was heavy.

There was a fire in the tent, but the temperature in the tent was a little higher than outside, sitting there, the cold was still coming, Li Wen and Tie Leopard saw that Li Qing was in a heavy mood, and they didn't dare to disturb, so they could only sit silently on the side, listening to the sound of the wind and sand outside hitting the tent.

It wasn't until dawn that Li Qing fell asleep in a daze.

Li Qing was awakened by the huge cheers outside, jumped up suddenly, and saw Li Wenfeng jumping in from the outside, "Lord, the wind and sand have stopped, the wind and sand have stopped!" ”

Li Qing, who was overjoyed, jumped up and rushed straight outside, the long-lost sunlight actually poured down from the sky, the golden Hanhai appeared in front of him, the sand dunes were undulating, like golden waves, wave after wave extended into the distance, the sun shone on the sand, shining.

Wang Yan laughed and rushed over, "Lord, you said yesterday that the wind and sand would stop today, and it really stopped today, and you are really a god." Wang Yan's voice was very loud, and all the soldiers around him heard this shout, and they all turned to look at Li Qing, raised the weapon in his hand, and cheered loudly, "Long live, long live!" ”

Li Qing smiled and raised his hand, "Dingzhou Army, Wan Sheng!" ”

"Dingzhou Army, Wansheng!" A loud whistling sound sounded in the middle of the sea.

"Pass my order, the whole army will pull out the camp and set off!" Li Qing roared.

Li Wen had already brought the war horse, Li Qing turned over and got on the horse, clamped his legs, the war horse galloped, and was the first to step into the vast Hanhai, and behind him, tens of thousands of troops were like a long black dragon, followed into the Hanhai.

Xiabaoping, He Ping's attack on the fortress has lasted for more than ten days, from the beginning of the tentative attack, to the fierce attack in recent days, the Xiabaoping fortress began to enter a brutal offensive and defensive battle.

The entire fortress was surrounded by several siege roads, the long roads that stretched to the head of the city, along which the attacking soldiers rushed upward, and in other places, ladders were erected, and the soldiers climbed up by the ladders.

Outside the city, He Ping dragged all the trebuchets and eight-bull crossbows to a very close distance to start a confrontation with the city, in his opinion, the opponent's trebuchets are indeed accurate, far away, but they are trapped in the city, even if the reserves are rich, the number is limited, and they are outside, they can get a steady stream of replenishment, even if these long-range weapons can't be replenished, they can also cut wood to make some simple trebuchets, as long as the number is enough, the defenders in the fortress can still form a threat, so, He was not afraid that his trebuchet would be destroyed one after another by the precise strikes in the city, and He Ping believed that even if he lost five planes for one of the other party, this account would be a good deal.

In order to be able to hit the opponent's trebuchet, He Ping dragged his own trebuchet very close to the city, and the captain in charge of the trebuchet was ordered by him to stand at the forefront, and in the past few days of the war, three captains have died in front of the trebuchet, two were directly hit by stone bullets, and the other was killed by the collapsed trebuchet.

He Ping's calculation was good, under his madness, the trebuchet in the city could not hit the enemy soldiers swarming in the enemy force above the siege road, so he could only launch a confrontation with the enemy, trying to destroy or suppress the opponent first, otherwise at this distance, the stone projectile thrown by the trebuchet hit the soldier's head, and the threat was great.

"What a master in the Central Plains!" Wei Xin sighed, He Ping's move was undoubtedly correct, and he was also under the soft threat of the defenders, even if all the trebuchets outside the city were destroyed, the enemy army besieging the city would be replenished in a short period of time.

"What if you can't suppress it from a distance?" Tian Xinyu on the side sneered, "In the past few days, there have been dozens of trebuchets destroyed by us, and in the past few days, those simple guys they got have become less and less threatening." ”

Wei Xin frowned and said, "But in this confrontation, our trebuchets are not much left." Even if we put it together, there are less than ten units, and it doesn't matter to them, but for us, it's a big loss. ”

"It's hand-to-hand combat, and they're no match for us." Tian Xinyu said.

"Who knows how many days it will take?" Wei Xin sighed, the secret agent of the Supervision Yuan who came from Yangquan brought Tian Feng's password, Wei Xin knew that the war was far more severe than he imagined, and the difficulties were many times more. And during this period of time, there will never be reinforcements. Of course, Wei Xin will never tell anyone about this news.

"General Wei, let me go up and kill you!" Tian Xinyu was eager to try.

"No, your wound has just healed, and there will be more places to use you in the future, and now you still honestly heal my wounds and recuperate enough strength, don't use you properly, you can't do it." Wei Xin smiled, "During this time, you let me stay here honestly." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked down.

Looking at the enemy army under the city tower and above the siege road, Tian Xinyu's hands were itchy, but the military order was a military order, not a joke, he had followed Tian Feng for a long time, and he had soaked the army's obedience to the bones, and turned around in the city tower a few times, saw the iron bow on the side, his eyes lit up, picked up the iron bow, and dragged a bag of feather arrows, "Good guy, practice archery!" ”

With a whoosh, a feather arrow flew out, shooting an enemy who had just stepped on the battlements and fell on his back, Tian Xinyu laughed, and took out another one from the bag, wound it to aim, and shot five in a row, and when it reached the sixth, there was a sudden pain on the shoulder, and he couldn't help grinning, and the arrow flew there, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that the wound on his shoulder was actually split again, and he couldn't help but stick out his tongue and immediately threw the iron bow aside. I don't dare to be strong anymore, if I get hurt again, I really let myself go into battle when I don't have to be that big book.

Under the city, Li Shengzhi danced with a spear, and led a team of men and horses to fight back along the siege road, driving the enemy off the siege road, and then turned back and retreated, on the armor of the whole body, blood was dripping, but looking at the tiger and tiger appearance when he walked, it was obvious that the blood stains were left by the enemy.

Wei Xin divided the troops in the city into three parts, and rotated one to go into battle every day, according to the past tradition of the Dingzhou army, the light wound did not go out of the line of fire, but this time, Wei Xin gave a death order, as long as it was a wounded soldier, before the wound was not healed, it was absolutely not allowed to go to the front line to fight, these lightly injured soldiers, it was a matter of ten days to heal the wound, and this battle was far from being solved in ten days, and the wounded soldiers went to the front line again, whether it was reaction or strength, it was definitely not as good as before, If this makes a minor injury a serious injury or hangs up, Wei Xin feels that it is too much to do, and after ten days, there will be another living dragon, and then it will be very useful.

Ordinary soldiers regarded this as General Wei's care and love for them, but Li Shengzhi and Tian Xinyu and other generals heard an unusual meaning from this order, and it seemed that this battle would take much longer than they expected!

When night fell under the city, the day's bloody battle also came to an end, He Ping collected his troops and returned to the camp, while Zeng Yifan came to his camp every day to watch the battle.

"He Ping, the tenacity of the opponent's defense is unexpected!" Zeng Yifan said, "How many casualties have we suffered in the past few days?" ”

"Not much, more than a thousand people, in front of this kind of opponent, before this kind of strong city, this loss is nothing, young marshal, you don't have to be in a hurry, to fight this kind of battle, you have to grind slowly, a bite is absolutely not gnawed, not to mention that the opponent is Dingzhou soldiers, it is the defense marshal Wei Xin, even if you change to an ordinary general, it is not easy to win."

Zeng Yifan smiled, "I'm not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry, you fight slowly!" ”

This time, it was He Ping's turn to be a little confused.
