Chapter 718 The Terrifying Xia Jun

"Governor General, if the Xia army is too much, the last general will immediately lead the troops out and kill them without leaving any armor." Orel angrily asked Sevic for his order.

"No need." Sevic ordered; "It is a good thing that the Xia army will place the army outside our camp!"

"Sir, why has this become a good thing?" Orel said in confusion.

"Of course this is a good thing, which means that the Xia army is attacking Yulongjie Chicheng." Sevic said with a smile; "The army is ordered to guard the camp tightly. Without this Governor's order, no one is allowed to leave the city without authorization."

"Yes, the last general takes the order..."

This time, the Xia army did not use the Qinzhan people to attack the city, but the Xia army took action. At the beginning of the siege, the Xia army first used artillery, Huihuan and bed crossbow to launch a fully saturated strike at the head of Yulong Jiechi's city. The density was several times that of the previous ones, especially the heavy explosive packs of Huihuans dropped. The power was amazing, and the entire city of Yulong Jiechi could feel the earth shaking.

Faced with the fierce artillery fire attack of the Xia army, the Khwarezm army guarding the city blocked its body under the female wall, but even though the Khwarezm army paid a huge price for casualties. Before the Xia army entered the city, the Khwarezm army's defense troops had changed. Now the Western Expedition Army has been systematically trained to achieve coordinated infantry and artillery operations. Under the cover of dense firepower, the Xia army carried a ladder, pushed a cart, and rushed to Yulongjie Chicheng with explosives.

Needless to say, the explosive pack is the one that explodes the city gate. This is the simplest and most effective way of attack. As long as the city gate is blown open, the Xia cavalry can immediately rush into the city; but this time the Xia army's city gate explosion operation was not so smooth. Although the city gate was blown open, the Khwarezmian army guarding the city gate had completely blocked the city gate hole. The Xia army showed a pile of sealed soil in front of the Xia army. The city gate was blocked, and the Xia army had no choice but to climb the city.

"Prince, the city gate has been completely blocked." A general came to Li Bingchang to report.

"The message was ordered by Liang Yongneng to lead the entire army to force the city, and he won the Yulongjie Chicheng at the lowest price before sunset, otherwise he would come to see him." Li Bingchang gave a death order.

"Yes, I will send the order."

Under the leadership of Liang Yongneng, the Xia army launched the battle to climb the city. All the weapons used by the Xia army were specially reinforced, especially the arrow towers were extremely strong, and there were hundreds of them. All the 100,000 Xia army troops were put into the siege. The momentum was huge. With the cover of the artillery and rocket rain, the defending Khwarezm army could not raise their heads at all.

"Ba,ba,ba..."

The ladder was placed on the top of the city, and the Xia army's artillery fire began to extend, focusing on attacking the city; the Xia army infantry began to assault the city, and the first ones to climb the city were the soldiers hiding in the cart. They were not wearing armor, each of them just held a sword in their hands and were very flexible. They climbed to the city under the cover of the archers on the top of the cart, and a fierce hand-to-hand combat began to enter the city. Although the Xia army was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, they still suppressed the Khwarezm army guarding the city and fought again.

The Xia army at the city gate on the other side was cleaning the mound; the Xia army's cleaning method was very rough, which was to use explosive packs to explode; a large hole was dug under the mound, and hundreds of explosive packs weighing more than ten pounds were placed and ignite them together; a "boom" sounded. If it couldn't be blown up once, it would be twice, and if it didn't work twice, it would be three times anyway, there would always be times that it could be blown up.

However, after two explosions, a huge gap was blown up at the gate of the city. Before the dust had dissipated, the Xia cavalry rushed into the city. The city defense of Yulongjie Chicheng had been completely broken. The defending troops retreated to the city to carry out stubborn street fighting. However, these old, weak, sick and disabled were no match for the elite Xia army after all, and were soon beaten to pieces. The urban area of ​​Yulongjie Chicheng fell into the hands of the Xia army at a very fast speed. The Xia army launched a tragic massacre on Yulongjie Chicheng.

Some unwilling to die opened the southern city gate and fled south, including Khwarezm King Galega and Prince Oslahei; but the Xia army did not let them go, and the Xia cavalry chased them reluctantly, and as long as they did not surrender, they would be killed. Faced with the pursuit of the Xia cavalry, the Khwarezm people were powerless to resist.

Inside the Seljuk Army camp in the south of the city.

Orel immediately ran into the tent and reported to Sevic: "Governor, go and have a look!"

"What's wrong except for something, so panic." Sevic asked Orel.

Seeing Oryol's panic, Sevic frowned and came outside the tent. With Oryol's support, Sevic climbed the watchtower in the camp. What appeared before Sevic was a cruel massacre scene. The Khwarezmians who escaped from the south of the city were being massacred by Xia cavalry. Some of the Xia cavalry chased from the rear and some were intercepting them in the front.

Orel said to Sevic: "The Xia army is too cruel, and we don't even let go of women or children; do we want to attack by adults?"

Sevic did not answer Orol's words, Sevic just said, "No! If the Xia army had not broken the city, why would the people in the city suddenly leave the city? Could it be that the Xia army really broke the city? This Yulongjie Chi City is the most powerful city in the Western Regions. Can't it stop the Xia army's attack?"

"Sir, what are you talking about?" Orel asked Sevic.

"Nothing." Sevic said: "Send someone to inquire immediately to see if the Xia army has captured Yulongjie Chicheng."

"Yes, let's make arrangements for this." Orel immediately took the order and left.

Sevic would not care about Orol's life or death! Sevic was concerned about whether the Xia army broke the city. The Xia army's attack on Yulongjie Chi City was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Seljuk Empire's army, because this was the weakest time for the Xia army, because most of the Xia army's troops were scattered in Chengzong to eliminate the remaining enemies. If the Sevic army directly sent troops to attack the Xia army's camp at this time, the Xia army would lose all its food, grass and supplies, which would lead to unstable morale.

Outside the camp of the Siege army, King Li Hao of Yue personally led 20,000 troops to monitor the movements of the Siege army. Another 10,000 troops had already headed north to strangle the Khwarezm people who were strangling out of the city.

"Prince, the Serbian army suddenly sent a sentry cavalry to the rear of our army." A general reported to King Li Hao of Yue.

King Li Hao of Yue frowned and said, "I ordered the entire army to prepare to defend the enemy. If the Serbian army dares to break out of the camp, I will kill him without leaving any armor."

"Yes, I will send the order here..."

King Li Hao of Yue was still restraining himself. Now is the weakest time for the Xia army. If the 100,000 Seljuk army intervened, it is unknown who will win and lose in the end. Therefore, it is best to delay as long as Li Hao can. When the Xia army completely eliminates the large remaining troops in the city, the Seljuk army will not be worrying.

Thanks to book friends for their support...
