Chapter 173 Bai Zongzheng Arrives

Jurchen also launched an attack on Zaoyang and Suixian on the same day and at the same time, but the results were similar.

The Zhongshun Army used the newly researched magic arm crossbow, gunpowder cans and other weapons to severely injure the enemy.

In this battle, tens of thousands of Jurchen soldiers will die, countless people will be seriously injured, and their strength will be seriously damaged.

Seeing this situation, the Jurchen commander pulled out his camp overnight and retreated fifty miles to avoid the attacking range of the Zhongshun Army, so he could rest up and make further plans.

Among the generals in the Zhongshun Army, some people really proposed to take advantage of the victory to beat the dog in the water, but Bai Dalang vetoed it.

The victory this time was mainly due to taking advantage of the new weapons, not because the combat effectiveness of Da Zhao's soldiers had increased.

Da Zhao lacked horses, and there were too few cavalry. Once an attack was launched, the cavalry was too small to confront the Jurchen cavalry head-on. Could it be that the infantry could use their two legs to chase the Jurchen cavalry?
Without strong cavalry, you can't take the initiative on the battlefield, so how can you attack rashly?
At the current stage, as long as the city can be defended and the Jurchen army held back, the battle will be considered a victory, so Bai Dalang refuses to let his subordinates take risks.

"As the order continues, everyone must not slack off to prevent the enemy from sneaking in.

In addition, posting notices to recruit craftsmen, we must rush to make more crossbows and catapults as soon as possible, and make more gunpowder cans. With these, unnecessary casualties can be reduced. "

During this battle, the entire Zhongshun Army saw the power of those weapons. Whenever they thought of the miserable conditions of the Jurchen soldiers when they were cleaning the battlefield, all the soldiers would twitch in their hearts.

It's too powerful, that gunpowder pot is simply an invincible magic weapon. It is very useful no matter whether it is attacking or defending the city. It should be made more.

"Thanks to Princess Huai'an and Lord Jingguo this time, if it wasn't for the two of you who created these magical weapons, even if we defended the city together, it would be a hard battle. How could we easily repel the enemy like we are now?
Thank you both, please accept my worship. "All the generals saluted Bai Mengjin and Song Yucheng together.

Dazhao and Jurchen have fought for nearly a hundred years, with fewer victories and more losses. Which victory did not pay a huge and painful price?This time, Bai Mengjin and Song Yucheng were able to defeat the enemy so easily.

Bai Mengjin and Song Yucheng hurriedly returned the salute, "You generals, this time we won the victory. Although we have the advantage of weapons, what's more important is that the Zhongshun Army is united as one, united against the enemy, and fearless.

Without the generals leading the army, without tens of thousands of soldiers killing the enemy, what can we do with only those gunpowder cans?
No matter how powerful the gunpowder can is, someone has to throw it into it, so the victory in this battle should be due to the credit of all the soldiers of the Zhongshun Army. "

Song Yucheng bowed to the generals with full of reverence. This salute is to all the soldiers guarding the border. It is because of their perseverance that half of the country in Dazhao is peaceful.

"Today's first victory in the battle should have been celebrated, but although the Jurchen army was defeated, it did not damage its foundation. After a few days of recuperation, it will definitely make a comeback.

We must not be negligent, the celebration banquet will not be held for the time being, after defeating the Jurchen, I will definitely hold a three-day and three-night banquet to celebrate with everyone. "

After winning the battle, you must say words of encouragement. Bai Dalang has led the army for many years, and there are still ways to appease the soldiers under his command.

The generals laughed loudly when they heard the words, "Yes, this time I will definitely defeat the Jurchens, so I feel proud."

Everyone was laughing, and the messenger ran in outside, "Report, Marshal, the boss has arrived." The boss, of course, was talking about Yongguo Gong Bai Zongzheng.

"What, Master Father has arrived? No way, the court didn't send someone to send a message. Where is the old commander now?"

Bai Dalang was almost dumbfounded when he heard that, why did his father come all the way to the border?Could it be that something happened in the capital?

"Old Marshal has arrived at the South City Gate." The messenger soldier hurriedly replied.

Bai Dalang and the others got up and walked out, "Quick, follow me out of the city immediately, and welcome my father into the city."

A group of people hurried to the south city gate, put down the suspension bridge and opened the city gate, and saw a group of about a thousand people outside the south city gate.

In the middle of the front, on a bay red horse, sat a middle-aged man wearing a silver helmet and holding a spear in his hand. He was Bai Zongzheng, Duke Yongguo of Great Zhao, Second Prime Minister, and Deputy Privy Envoy.

"Father, why are you here? You didn't send anyone to deliver a letter in advance, so you can bring your younger siblings to welcome you."

Bai Dalang led Sanlang, Liulang, Bai Mengjin, and Song Yucheng to urge the horses forward, and when they got close, they got off their horses and saluted.

Bai Zongzheng looked at his sons and daughters and nodded, "Your Majesty made a temporary decision to come here this time. A certain person rushed here without sending a message."

Bai Zongzheng looked at Bai Mengjin and Song Yucheng who were standing opposite him. He was angry and helpless. Why did he come in such a hurry? Isn't it for these two ancestors?

The Jurchen army is attacking, and the border soldiers are in danger of fighting. If these two people don't hurry back to Beijing, they still stay here to join in the fun. Isn't this a shame?
The emperor and Bai Zongzheng received a letter from Bai Dalang, and learned that Song Yucheng was planning to go on a tour to the west, and almost killed the emperor.

After the two old fathers discussed, it was decided that it was better for Bai Zongzheng to personally go out and arrest these two people. The border is too dangerous and they cannot be allowed to mess around.

Bai Zongzheng galloped fast all the way on the starry night. He had already heard about the situation here when he was approaching Xiangfan, and he was really anxious.

When they arrived at Xiangyang City, they found that the city gate was closed tightly, and the soldiers guarding the city were waiting in full force. Even if they didn't open the city gate when they saw Bai Zongzheng, Bai Zongzheng knew that something was wrong.

Upon inquiry, he found out that the Jurchen army's attack on Fancheng was repulsed in the morning, and Bai Zongzheng became even more anxious, fearing that the war would be critical and his sons and daughters might make mistakes.

Seeing that the children are all safe now, Bai Zongzheng also heaved a sigh of relief, "How is the war going? Can Fancheng be held if the Jurchen army is attacking the city?"

"Father Commander, let's advance into the city and tell you in detail. Father Commander can rest assured that the Jurchen army failed to attack the city this time." How can anyone chat outside the city gate?

Bai Dalang hurriedly welcomed Bai Zongzheng and his party into the city, returned to the Baifu, invited Bai Zongzheng to sit down, and ordered someone to serve tea and snacks.

Only then did he feel safe and sound, and told Bai Zongzheng what had happened in the army in the past few days.

"Father commander, this time it's all about Little Seventh Sister and Lord Yasukuni, if it weren't for the weapons they developed, it would be impossible to defeat the enemy so easily.

Mr. Yasukuni has outstanding talents and learning, and he is young and promising. It is really the luck of Zhao. "After Bai Dalang finished speaking, he even praised him for sending him to the bathing place.

The implication of that is nothing more than expressing his opinion to his father, this young man is good, he is worthy of our little sister, father, you can consider the marriage of these two people.

Bai Zongzheng was dumbfounded. He knew that his daughter was smart and capable, but he never imagined that Bai Mengjin could make a powerful crossbow and what gunpowder cans.

"Is this all true? Little Qi and Lord Jingguo stayed at the border and did such a big thing? God bless me, Big Zhao."

Bai Zongzheng remembered what the old monk said, could it be that their Xiaoqi is really a person with great fortune and fortune?
