This was another one-sided massacre, as Li Bingchang led the reinforcements to arrive, the Xia army's attack became more fierce and more frenzied, and Xu Xi, who saw that the momentum was not good, changed into a set of ordinary soldiers' clothes under the protection of his henchmen generals, and slipped away from the rear camp gate without organizing any resistance under the protection of thousands of cavalry.
Even the commander has taken the lead in running, don't expect the officers below to be desperate, without the command of the leading generals, the Song army is even more about to collapse, more than 100,000 Song troops fled from the camp, those who can run will run, and those who can't run will raise their hands to surrender, the Xia army is like a wolf in the flock of sheep attacking everywhere and unable to stop; Within two hours, Li Bingchang led the Xia army to take the eastern camp of the Song army.
Just when Li Liangzuo led the army to pursue the Song army, a Song army came down from the north, which was the Song army that attacked the north gate of Xiping Mansion, and was commanded by the veteran general of the Song army.
The purpose of this army was to capture all the Xia troops in Xiping Province when they fled north, and then wave their troops north.
However, this day the Song army could not wait, but the 150,000 army led by the seed master Dao happened to save the life of the Song army that fled eastward, when the army led by the seed master dao to the south, Li Bingchang was leading 30,000 Xia army knights to chase and kill the fleeing Song army, Li Bingchang glanced to the north and tightened his mount and said: "Huh, huh, call the order of the army, stop the pursuit, and prepare to meet the enemy." ” "Lord Wang, where is there an enemy here?"
"What's the matter, hurry up and give the order" "Woo, woo, woo, woo" After a horn sounded, the pursuing Xia army stopped attacking and began to line up around Li Bingchang's side.
Sure enough, not long after, a huge Song army from the north came straight to the Xia army, although this Song army is also mainly infantry, but there are cavalry troops on both sides of the army to protect, looking at the neat formation of the Song army, Li Bingchang knows that this Song army is not easy to mess with, and the generals who lead the army are not incompetent like Zhang Dunli and Xu Xi.
"Lord Wang, is this still the Song Army?"
the adjutant general asked Li Bingchang.
"Command all the tribes, and no one shall act rashly without the order of the king."
"Obedience" Li Bingchang stared at the Song army troops that were slowly approaching him, and on the banner erected by the Song army, Li Bingchang saw the word "seed", and Li Bingchang said with some resentment: "It turned out to be this guy who is a seed teacher." ” "Marshal, whether to launch an attack on the Xia army."
The lieutenant asked the planter.
"Don't rush, wait first; He sent someone to spread the word, and said that he would lead them.
Seed Master Dao said to the deputy general.
"Yes, Marshal."
Soon from the battle of the Song army, a general rode a horse to the Xia army formation, and the general said: "My marshal wants to see the Xia army general, I don't know if the Xia general will have the courage to take a moment before the formation." ” "Go back and tell the planter that this king is waiting for him in the center of the two armies."
After Li Bingchang finished speaking, he rode to the middle of the two armies.
"It turned out to be His Royal Highness the Acting King, personally leading the troops, and the commander was polite."
The seed master said very politely.
"I don't know what Zhong Shuai saw this king do," Li Bingchang asked the seed master.
"His Royal Highness the Acting King dared to block the 150,000 army of Ben Shuai with only tens of thousands of Xia army cavalry, which really made Ben Shuai admire, His Royal Highness the Acting King should know that as long as Ben Shuai gave an order, the 150,000 army attacked, and it could crush you and your army into powder in an instant."
The seed master said viciously.
"If you really have this ability, you won't meet this king, the 150,000 army under your command, more than half of them should be the western army, how is the combat effectiveness of your country's western army, I think this king should know better than you, whether my 30,000 iron cavalry can defeat your 150,000 army, I forgot to tell you; The 170,000 troops behind this king will soon arrive, and then this king can leave all of you under the city of Xipingfu. ” The reason why the seed master Dao asked to see the commander of the Xia army was actually to test the reality of the Xia army, when the seed master saw Li Bingchang, the heart of the seed master road chuckled, after all, before the Song army attacked, the seed master dao collected a lot of information about the Xia army's western expedition, knowing that the acting king Li Bingchang was the main general of the Xia army's western expedition, and now Li Bingchang led the army back, which means that the main force of the Xia army has returned to the dynasty, maybe the main force of the Xia army is not far from here.
"His Royal Highness the Acting King, if you have the ability, you can come and try it."
After finishing speaking, the seed master said that he rode back to the Song army's array.
After Li Bingchang returned to the military formation, all the lieutenant generals thought to Li Bingchang and asked, "Lord Wang, do you want to launch an attack on the Song army?"
” "The Song army's army is well defended, and it is five times that of our army, and a rash attack will not have any good results; The king was ordered to lead 10,000 troops to monitor, and the Song army, and the rest of the 20,000 soldiers and horses captured the prisoners of war of the Song army, and killed those who resisted. ” "Yes, follow the orders of the prince."
Under the eyes of the army of the Seed Master, the Xia army carried out a brutal massacre of the Song army, and the Song army wanted to save it but couldn't save it, so they could only watch the fleeing Song army being captured or killed by the Xia army; This was tantamount to a fatal blow to the morale of the Song army, and what Li Bingchang wanted was such a result.
"Dashuai, give the order to attack" Song Jiang asked the seed master for his life.
"Order the cavalry troops on both flanks to entangle the Xia army, and the main army to cover the rout and retreat to the east."
"Obedience" The cavalry of the Song army was the opponent of the cavalry of the Xia army, and the two armies caused great casualties to the cavalry of the Song army as soon as they fought, but fortunately the Xia army only had 30,000 cavalry, although the cavalry of the Song army paid huge casualties, but in the end the Xia army was dragged down, and the large army of the Song army was successfully covered to protect the rout and evacuate.
At noon, the rest of the 70,000 cavalry led by Fuyuan's general Li Yanzong finally arrived at Xiping Mansion, but it was too late, and the long-distance march of the Xia army was already at the end of the crossbow, and there was no strength to pursue the Song army; However, despite this, the harvest of the Xia army is still very large, the Song army alone captured nearly 100,000 people in the Xia army, in addition to weapons, armor, crossbow arrows, camp tents, countless horses, and the most important thing is that the grain and grass of the Song army captured by the Xia army, in order to supply the consumption of the 400,000 troops on the front line, the Song army stored a total of 3 million stone of grain and grass in the southern and eastern camps, which is enough for the 400,000 army for three months.
And now this batch of grain and grass is a life-saving grain and grass for the Great Xia Empire, and now there is a large area of famine in the territory of the Great Xia Empire, with this batch of grain and grass The Great Xia Empire can always last for some time, in order to maintain the war, now the entire Great Xia Empire has implemented a grain and grass rationing system, due to the lack of meat in this era, people's food is very large, after all, to be satisfied with daily consumption, in order to be able to continue the war of resistance, even the Xia soldiers on the front line can only be maintained in a half-full state.
After the Song army stayed away, Li Bingchang led the army into Xiping Mansion, where Li Bingchang and the Xia soldiers were unprecedentedly welcomed, at this time the Song army in the city has been cleaned up, but these Xia soldiers who entered the city are all a virtue, and they have fallen asleep on their horses before entering the city gate.
