King of Song

Chapter 356

"Brother Jing!" Lin Zhao and Jing Sili are very familiar now, and they are already brothers.

"Dongyang, how is the situation over there?"

"A wave of attacks has just been repulsed, and the Xixia people have withdrawn their troops!" Lin Zhao heaved a sigh of relief.

Jing Sili over there also wiped off the bloody sweat on his face, nodded and said with a smile: "That's good, I didn't expect the Xixia dog to come so fiercely again, it's like going crazy!"

The two were in charge of guarding Dashun City, and encountered a fierce attack from the Xixia army, and they were under a lot of pressure at the moment.

"Speaking of which, I've hurt everyone again, and Liang Yibu is targeting me again!" Lin Zhao's face was a little embarrassed.

Jing Sili frowned and understood what he meant.He was naturally aware of the relationship between Liang Yibu and Lin Zhao. At the same time, as a smart person, he could probably think of some abnormalities in Lin Zhao's appearance in Dashun City.

As a soldier, you cannot disobey orders, you have to obey them.On the battlefield, it is very common to encounter enemy troops. The battle situation is bad, and there is no complaint even in a life-and-death crisis.But they don't want to be the victims of the upper class fighting for power or other struggles.

The soldiers of the Western Army are already pitiful, why bother to embarrass them?The more than 1000 soldiers died in vain last time, what about these now?Jing Sili really didn't want them to have the slightest surprise.Don't make any more fools, Jing Sili is really scared!

"It's okay, it has nothing to do with you!" Jing Sili is a sensible person, although he really doesn't want to see certain situations happen.But he also knew that it was not Lin Zhao's decision. Maybe it was because of him, but it was definitely not his fault.

"It seems that the Xixia people are attacking day and night, taking turns!" Jing Sili changed the subject casually, he can't control some things, and now he can only do his job well and direct the battle in Dashun City most important.

"That's right, Liang Yi's burial is really nothing! There's also that traitor Li Fugui, who aided the evildoers and came to harm Dashun City again."

Mentioning Li Fugui, Jing Sili also gritted his teeth in hatred.The last time those who were burned to death in Dashun City were all his subordinate soldiers, as a general, Jing Sili naturally hated the big enemy.

"How about our food, grass and weapon reserves? How long can we last?" Lin Zhao asked in a deep voice. This is a crucial matter for them.

"There is no problem with the grain and grass. It can be used for at least two months. It's just that the arrowheads and fire oil are consumed too quickly, so it can only last for more than half a month." Jing Sili asked a rather urgent question.

Food and grass are important, but they are not critical right now.In terms of weapons, kerosene and arrowheads are crucial weapons for them. Without these two things, it would be difficult to suppress the Xixia people.Especially when Xixia soldiers climbed the city, without long-range suppression, hand-to-hand combat was inevitable.Casualties will inevitably be greater, and that is the real war of attrition, if there is no timely rescue and supplies.

The cruelty of the war and the casualties of the defenders of Dashun City will increase greatly.Obviously, this is a situation that no one wants to see.

Why is there enough food and grass and only so many weapons?This point made Lin Zhao and Jing Sili somewhat puzzled.Was it intentional, or was it just an oversight?
Prior to this, Wang Shao had always been in control of Gyeongju, and he had arranged the defense and supply of Dashun City by himself. How could such a thing happen?When such a situation occurs, it is inevitable to make people suspicious.

"Let's do this, let out the smoke to inform Qingzhou of the situation, and see how Qingzhou responds!" Jing Sili thought for a while and said.Although it is impossible for Gyeongju not to know the current situation of Dashun City, Naihe has not responded.That being the case, then take the initiative to tell me again, which can be regarded as persecution.After all, he, Jing Sili, is the guard of Dashun City, he can express his opinion on some matters, this is his responsibility and obligation.

Lin Zhao pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly.Wang Shao, who presided over the Battle of Xihe, was a famous general in the Northern Song Dynasty who opened up territories. Let this wolf smoke find out what kind of character he is!
Immediately, a puff of wolf smoke rose into the sky from the city of Gyeongju. There was no strong wind at this time, so it could be seen very clearly from a distance.At the same time, the Xixia army launched another fierce attack...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Under the city, Liang Yibu couldn't help but sneered when he saw the situation, "What? Could it be that they couldn't hold on? So fast? Humph!"

Liang Yibu was very proud, which shows that the defensive situation of Dashun City is not optimistic.It also showed that his onslaught worked, so he was naturally very excited.

"Liang Guoxiang, this is a signal from Dashun City to ask for help from Gyeongju!" Li Fugui hurriedly explained.The sooner Dashun City fails, the sooner Lin Zhao will die. He is very happy to see such a situation.

"Okay!" Liang Yibu snorted coldly, and said: "Send the order, speed up the onslaught, the warrior who climbs the city first will be rewarded! Also, mobilize the ambushes of Liyuan Castle, wait for the reinforcements from Qingzhou, and give them a head-on blow. Make them dare not come out again!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The smoke is set off, is the situation critical?" Li Cheng looked at the smoke rising into the sky, feeling a little worried.

Jiang Leiting stared at it for a moment, and said: "There is only a puff of smoke, which should be used to report the news. The situation is not that serious. It must be a way for the young master and the others to report to Qingzhou and put pressure on it!"

The two of them were ordered to rush to the outskirts of Dashun City to support the rescue.In case of any major problems, I will find a way to rescue the young master.

"That's good, by the way, Brother Lei Ting, who do you think my people found in the Xixia camp?" Li Cheng was a little relieved, but another thing made him very excited.

"Who?"

"Li Fugui!"

How easy is it to save people among thousands of troops?Li Cheng had many ideas, and even thought of sending people to sneak into the Xixia camp, kidnap Liang Yibu or other high-ranking generals, and exchange sons when necessary.Or take advantage of it unprepared and create some chaos or something.However, Xixia's defense was more cautious, and they never succeeded, but they accidentally discovered Li Fugui's trace.

"how do you want to do it?"

Li Cheng sneered and said: "Li Fugui is the son's great enemy. I heard that the son also vowed to kill Li Fugui to avenge the soldiers who died in vain in Dashun City. Should we do our best to help?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In Gyeongju, Wang Shao also saw the smoke rising into the sky in the distance.

Looking at the lonely smoke in the desert in the distance, Wang Shao pondered for a long time, and said in a low voice: "It's almost time!"

Immediately ordered: "Dispatch five thousand soldiers and horses to rescue Dashun City, be careful of ambush, if you lose after the battle, retreat, stick to Liyuan Castle and come out."

"Yes!" A general led the order to leave.

That night, when the moon was dark and the wind was high, Wang Shao quietly left the city.In a valley dozens of miles southeast of Gyeongju, an army of 2 people waited quietly.

When Wang Shao arrived, the army set out.But their direction is not to the northwest, but to the southwest!
