Chapter 7 Drumming Down
Chapter 7: One drum
The Zuoxiang Shenyong Army Division is the easternmost city in Xixia, with 20,000 elite troops stationed. It is a city that Wu Ji must remove. Therefore, as soon as Wu Ji entered Xixia, he led a large army to attack the city.
Unexpectedly, when they arrived, they caused a huge commotion. Nothing else, it was just that the arrival of the Song army had a huge psychological impact on the Xixia people.
"It's really Song Jun!"
"It's really Song Jun!"
"Since the demise of the previous dynasty, no Han army has appeared here, and the Han army has come again!"
"When the former army appeared here, the earth was shaking, and they rushed in an orderly formation. It was invincible, and even the mountains could not stop them!"
The shock of the Western Xia soldiers revealed the whole story very well, because the Chinese army appeared here again after the Tang army.
Since the fall of the Tang Dynasty, China has been divided into various parts and the world has been in chaos. Each of them has occupied one place and fought for the world. From then on, there has never been a large army of China in the northwest and the Xixia lands. The arrival of Wu Ji and others has had a great psychological impact on the soldiers of the Xixia.
Until now, they still rumored the bravery of the Tang army, and there are still many stories about the invincible Tang army being circulated. The Tang army swept the world and swept across the country. Tuyuhun, Tubo and Uighurs entrenched in the northwest are all defeated generals of the Tang Dynasty. In the northwest, the Tang army has killed countless alien races, and the bones can be seen so far.
The Tang army's bravery is still feared by these foreign races. When the Song army arrived, they couldn't help but think of the Tang army. How can they not be disturbed?
"Rumor!" The Song army was in an orderly manner, and they drove one after another without any chaos.
The Song army was moving very fast under the city. In just a short while, a huge and stunning military formation appeared, with murderous aura and making people feel palpitations.
"This..." The Xixia soldiers were speechless and were extremely shocked: "The army of the previous dynasty is nothing more than that!"
Seeing the mighty and majestic formation of the Song army, the Western Xia army used the Tang army to compare it with it, and was shocked to find that the momentum of the Song army was not inferior to that of the Tang army.
For these Xixia people, the Tang army was a myth! It was a legend! It was an existence that made them look up to!
The Tang army is well-equipped, well-trained, strict military discipline, extremely brave, flexible and changeable tactics, and shocking momentum. Once it is rushed, it has the power of the sky falling and the earth breaking. It has the power of these aliens looking up to it with its invincible legend.
Although Xixia suppressed the Song Dynasty for decades, she would never forget the Tang army.
Can they not be shocked when they see an army comparable to the Tang army again?
Li Zhong is the garrison here. After he received the report, he heard that the Song army was coming and was extremely disdainful and said, "The Song army is just a mob. He has been suppressing Daxia for decades. When he sees the shadow of Daxia people, he will run away! The Song army is just good luck and defeats the Khitans in one fell swoop! If they dare to come, they will definitely let them go without a return!"
He hurried to the city, preparing to teach the Song army a severe lesson. But he could not have thought that what he saw was such a mighty and indestructible army, no less than the legendary Tang army. He was stunned at once, and his arrogance and disdain disappeared in an instant, and what he had replaced was fear.
The Tang army was an existence that made countless alien races have nightmares. The glory of the Tang army was mainly in the north, in the northwest and in the Western Regions. After the Tang Dynasty unified China, it launched a large-scale military force against the north, northwest and western regions, and countless alien races were killed. Their bones created the glory of the Tang army.
Although the Tang Dynasty was destroyed and the Tang army became a legendary army, their horror still shocked these alien races. When Li Zhong first saw it, he seemed to see the Tang army, not the Song army.
He knew that he had made a huge mistake, and he underestimated the Song army: "No wonder he could defeat the Khitans in such a short time and almost captured Yelu Hongji alive!"
Just when he was frightened, he saw a young man jumping out of the Song army formation. The young man had a firm face and his eyes were red. He looked at the Xixia people on the top of the city as if he was looking at his father's enemy, with endless hatred.
Not only him, but who is not as good as the Song army? At this time, the Song army's eyes were red and the flames of hatred were sprayed, and they wanted to cut off the Xixia people immediately.
This young man was Wu Ji. He came to the city by horse and shouted at the top of the city: "Speaker of the Western Xia soldiers: The army of the Song Dynasty is here to avenge! Dangxiang people, pigs and dogs are worse than that of pigs and dogs. They slaughtered the five cities of Anding in Shanzhou, and the five cities of Anding were turned into ruins. This is atrocity! Countless Chinese children died in life! This hatred is irreconcilable! This hatred must be avenged!"
The incident of the Five Cities has spread. When the Western Xia soldiers heard it, they were very happy and scolded the Song people for being useless and deserved to be slaughtered. However, now they heard it, they were frightened.
They looked at the Song army under the city, and their backs were numb. If there was no such elite Song army here, they would not be afraid. However, such elite Song army was just under their noses and said that they would definitely take revenge. Who can not be afraid?
Whenever strength is the best right to speak, Wu Ji has this right to speak!
"Dangxiang people, no matter their high or low, no matter their age, will be killed!" Wu Ji said his decision word by word: "It's not that we are cruel, but that Dangxiang people do in Shanzhou, and they are angry with each other!"
Wu Ji's words contained endless hatred. When he thought of the Five Cities of Anding, he was furious. Deaths in war were inevitable, but it was too amazing to turn the five cities into ruins like the Dangxiang people.
Since the Dangxiang people are so cruel, there is no need to keep them! It is natural to pay for blood and pay for blood debts and blood!
"Hiss!" There was a sound of cooling air on the top of the city.
"I am also a Dangxiang member! I will die without a doubt?" Li Zhong heard that Wu Ji was really angry and was about to start a murderous act. He did not dare to have any doubts about Wu Ji's determination, and his scalp exploded.
"Whoever is an enemy of the king's army, kill his family!"
Just when the Western Xia soldiers were frightened, Wu Ji was so murderous that he said two more words "kill".
This campaign against Xixia, avenging revenge for the stability of the five cities is one aspect, and the other aspect is to establish authority. The Song Dynasty has been weak for a hundred years, and the foreign races looked down on the Song Dynasty at all. The reputation is not obvious and the power is not obvious, so it must establish authority!
Only when a foreign race is established like the Tang Dynasty can foreign races be afraid. They must let foreign races have nightmares and must make foreign races sweat when they mention the Song Dynasty!
Only in this way can we ensure that these alien races dare not have another intention!
Therefore, establishing authority is imperative!
The best way to establish authority is to kill!
Not only will he die when he is an enemy of the Song army, but his family will be killed. This is a death talisman for the soldiers of the Western Xia. The population of Xixia is extremely complex, and the Dangxiang people are the royal family of Xixia and are the noblest. In addition to this, there are Qiang, Han people, and a few Uighurs and *** people.
Among these races, the Dangxiang people must be eliminated. As for other races, it depends on the situation. If they want to be enemies of the Song army, there is no need to be ruthless and kill them all. In order to shock them, Wu Ji threatened to kill his family.
This hand is well used. The soldiers who are not Dangxiang people among the Western Xia soldiers were immediately furious and they talked about it, "Can we beat it?"
"The Song army is no less than the Tang army, we can't defeat it!"
"If you can't beat it, then don't fight it anymore. This is to kill our family!"
"The Song army is really angry! These party members don't do good things and do evil things! No matter how they do, they can't massacre the city. Isn't this angering the Song army?"
"I heard that less than a hundred people survived in Anding Five Cities, both men, women, young and old, and even babies are not spared. It's so miserable! Although we are not Song people, we were also shocked after hearing about this!"
"No wonder the Song army wants to take revenge. It's so miserable! Daxia fought with the Song people for decades, but he had never done such a massacre of the city. Even the Khitans had never done it!"
"We cannot be enemies of the Song army!"
Just as the soldiers were talking, Wu Ji said, "If you open the door and accept the king's army, the army will treat you as brothers as they did in the previous dynasty!"
The Tang army killed countless alien races in the northwest, but the Tang army was quite friendly to those who did not make enemies with them. What the Tang army did in the northwest was to be ruthless to the enemy, kill all the enemies, and treat friends and brothers.
With the help of the Tang Dynasty, the foreign races in the northwest were both afraid and admired the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty did what it said in this regard. As long as you did not become enemies of the Tang Dynasty, there would be no problem. If you serve the Tang Dynasty, make contributions, you will be promoted and rewarded. Geshuhan and Gao Xianzhi are not Han people, Geshuhan are Turkic people, Gao Xianzhi is a famous general, a high-ranking official, and a great general. This is a beautiful story.
Moreover, Geshuhan once guarded the northwest and left many stories in the northwest. "Geshu's Night Bringing a Knife" is still praised today.
Wu Ji's words were endlessly tempting. Those Western Xia soldiers who were not Dangxiang people were full of energy and their eyes shone. Who knew about the Tang Dynasty's treatment of ethnic minorities such as Geshuhan? Anyone who knew about it, as long as they were from the Northwest people, they knew about it.
If the Song Dynasty treated them like this, they would have a bright future, which would be much better than following the Dangxiang people to die.
"General Wu, what you said is worthwhile?" Some Xixia soldiers began to inquire.
"I, Wu Ji, have made a vow here. Except for the Dangxiang people, no matter what tribe you are, as long as you do not become enemies of the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty will not add any sins to you! If you are willing to serve the Song Dynasty and make merits and rewards, it is equivalent to me!" Wu Ji swears loudly and said, "I know that you have heard of my reputation and know my character, and I keep my word!"
Wu Ji's reputation is quite famous, and he has sweared, how dare these soldiers not believe it? They are more scrupulous.
Li Zhong saw it in his eyes and was shocked in his heart. He knew that even if he could not stop this, the Western Xia soldiers would probably turn back. He turned his eyes and immediately had an idea. He looked up at the sky and laughed: "Haha! Wu Ji, Wu Ji, you are not afraid of the wind and flashing your tongue! The left-wing Divine Army Division is a famous city with a high city and thick walls. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Even if you have great skills, you can't do anything! Don't say that you are leading the Song army, even if you are leading the Tang army, you can't defeat it!"
