Chapter 1635
These boxes were covered with dark grenade launchers and artillery shells.
The soldiers of Daxia carried these grenade launchers on their shoulders almost like scrambling. Someone opened his mouth wide, "Haha, I can finally use this thing again!"
Obviously, they should have been trained with grenade launchers before.
Soon, the soldiers carrying grenade launchers all ran back to the battlements. The grenade launchers were also assembled at the top of the city.
And under the city, soldiers were carrying large wooden boxes.
After these rows of boxes were opened, they were either sky-rushing cannons, sky-burning thunder and other objects, or dragon guns and bullets.
Wu Shangyun looked up at the sky and murmured, "You are about to rebel, and you have to rebel... I, Wu Shangyun, have no choice..."
"fire!"
Such loud roars sounded almost at the same time at the top of the city and under the city.
The sound of cannons was shocked.
In an instant, shells fell on the city wall of Hengshan Du. The ash smoke exploded and the stone bricks cracked.
Only shells also landed in the front row of the Western Xia imperial guards.
Some Xixia soldiers were destroyed in artillery fire. Even grenade launchers were affected by artillery shells.
Heliancheng changed his face in an instant and exclaimed, "Why do they have grenade launchers!"
This was too unexpected to him.
The Daxia thief army actually owned firearms such as grenade launchers, which he had never even thought about before.
Could it be...
At this moment, Heliancheng couldn't help but wonder whether the Song State was able to get along with others, and at the same time, he also secretly provided grenade launchers and other objects to Daxia?
What benefits does this have for the Song State?
Could it be that the Dafa war will not be able to make money while taking advantage of the civil strife in Xixia?
This is unlikely.
If the State of Song wanted to continue with such an opportunity to exploit Xixia and Daxia, then they could sell these firearms to both countries at a sky-high price. I think both countries would grit their teeth and accept it.
So is it because the State of Song or wants to watch Xixia, and both Daxia suffer from losses?
This seems unreasonable.
If we want to see both countries suffer losses, Song State can never provide any arms to both countries. Because of this, both countries will still suffer losses.
Then why...
Heliancheng seemed to be able to hear the sound of his heart beating violently.
At this moment, he was undoubtedly a little panicked.
The enemy troops of Daxia also have firearms such as grenade launchers, and rely on the convenience of the city. If they want to take down Hengshan Du, their chances of winning are very small.
In just less than two minutes, Heliancheng couldn't help but shout: "Retreat! Retreat!"
He was a little furious.
But there is no way to retreat.
Before he figured out where the arms of Daxia came from, he really didn't have the confidence to fight the Daxia army to a desperate battle.
Don’t win, but someone else picked the fruits of victory...
The sound of golden sounds in the Western Xia imperial guards immediately resounded.
The soldiers in the army all looked at the city with extremely surprised eyes, and then slowly retreated to the back.
Behind the scenes, Zhongsun Zhouting also heard the sound of gold on the front line.
This made him frown immediately, "Why are you withdrawing your troops now?"
Then he didn't care about it and said, "The whole army, follow me to pick me up!"
He knew that something unexpected must have happened when Helian City suddenly retreated.
The movements of Zhongsun Zhouting's army could not be hidden from the eyes of the Daxia scouts on the head of Hengshandu City.
Wu Shangyun soon learned that the Western Xia imperial guards were coming again, but he just chuckled.
He had no intention of letting the army leave the city and take the initiative to attack.
Perhaps, he felt that this was also a thankless thing. Both sides had grenade launchers and other objects. If he really wanted to lead his army to the outside of the city, he might not be able to gain any advantage.
In this battle, the Western Xia imperial guards took the initiative to attack. They just had to defend Hengshan Ferry and prevent the Western Xia imperial guards from advancing north, and they were already victorious.
At that time, if the Western Xia imperial guards are frustrated and return, the prestige of Empress Li Xiushu among the people will inevitably be greatly reduced.
And their Daxia Kingdom can be completely divided and ruled with the Empress. At that time, with the help of the Yuan Dynasty firearms, they may not be able to gradually erode the Empress's territory.
Cheers were heard at the top of the city wall.
The soldiers in the army were quite excited to see the Western Xia imperial guards retreating like this.
A general said: "These imperial guards are known as the elite of the Western Xia, but they are just like this. How strong can they be than us?"
"The general said it very well!"
"The Western Xia imperial guards are just helping the timid mice!"
"The imperial guards used to be called elite, but I didn't accept it! Haha, now it seems that it's just a false example! No, I don't even have a fucking example!"
I don't know how many people agree.
In the past, they were all soldiers of the Baimaqiang Town Military Office or other military offices. Their status in Xixia was really inferior to that of the imperial guards. They were undoubtedly a little unhappy.
Of course, these sounds could not be reached in Heliancheng's ears and left.
He retreated among the army, and looked back at the top of Hengshan Cross from time to time, just worried.
The grenade launcher that the Daxia Army suddenly took out made him feel as if he was in powerless.
Soon after, the army of Heliancheng met with the army led by Zhongsun Zhouting.
Zhongsun Zhouting hurriedly rushed to Helian City and asked, "General Helian, why did you withdraw your troops like this?"
He hadn't seen the grenade launcher on the top of the city before.
Heliancheng's face looked extremely ugly, even a little pale, and gritted his teeth and said, "The enemy also has firearms like grenade launchers!"
"What?"
Zhongsun Zhouting was also shocked in an instant, "How is this possible? General Helian, do you take this seriously?"
Heliancheng said: "I said with my own eyes, and they have all used grenade launchers! How could there be any fakes!"
"That……"
Zhongsun Zhouting said in panic: "Where did they come from the grenade launcher?"
Then he seemed to think of something, and suddenly kept silent.
Afterwards, the two led the army back to the camp.
This time the attack was completely failed.
This almost gave the ambitious Xixia imperial guards a blow.
All the generals in the army looked bad.
Zhongsun Zhouting took several generals directly to Heliancheng's tent.
As soon as he entered the coach's tent and had not yet sat down, he couldn't help but say, "Is it because Song State also rented firearms for them?"
Now, only Song State among the Central Plains countries has firearms such as grenade launchers. He really couldn't imagine that there would be any other country besides Song State that could provide firearms to Daxia.
"I don't know either."
Heliancheng shook his head gently and sighed: "But if their firearms are really given to them by the State of Song, then in this battle, no matter whether we win or lose, we will probably not be much better."
Zhongsun Zhouting frowned deeply.
He couldn't help but wonder what the purpose of Song State doing this was.
But it was obvious that it was difficult for him to come up with a result. Because the Song State had no reasonable motivation to provide Daxia with firearms.
After a while, Zhongsun Zhouting said again: "Do we want to withdraw our troops in the current situation and pass this matter back to the court before making a decision?"
Heliancheng looked at him and nodded.
On this day, Heliancheng, Zhongsun Zhouting and the others led their way to the Great Wall.
Eight hundred miles of the army rushed to Zhongxing Prefecture, Xixia.
The Xixia and Daxia made great efforts to kill a fish to death. As a result, they just came into contact with the Hengshan Ferry and ended in a hurry.
Only two days have passed.
Heliancheng and Zhongsun Zhouting were still on the way to withdraw their troops, and the 800-mile war report had already reached Zhongxing Prefecture, Xixia.
Zhongsun Qifu, who is currently in charge of the government affairs, is on duty in the central government office. There are famous officials such as He Liandong in the room, and I don’t know what they are discussing.
While talking, I heard a eunuch outside shouting in a sharp voice: "The front line is 800 miles away..."
Then a dusty soldier hurriedly "broken" into the room.
The soldier knelt down and reported, "Tai Shi, Helian and Zhongsun, the two commanders, were 800 miles away!"
Zhongsun was moved by the way, and he didn't care about anything else, so he quickly got up and took the battle report from the soldier.
After only a few seconds of opening, his face turned pale and his hands were shaking slightly.
Seeing his appearance, He Liandong and others showed concern and doubt in their eyes.
He Liandong asked, "Master... Could it be... that the front line was defeated?"
Although he asked this, he had a strong sense of suspicion in his eyes.
He knew what kind of firearms are in the Western Xia imperial guards now. Logically speaking, there is no reason to lose when conquering the Daxia army. And he was defeated so quickly.
