"No, you definitely can't underestimate Xia Jun, they are definitely not a rabble, I'm sure Xia Jun is more elite than before.
"Your Excellency, why are you so sure?"
Orel asked Sevic in confusion.
Sevich said to Orel: "Although the Xia army has given up the heavy cavalry, but their mobility has also been greatly enhanced, you see the armor their soldiers wear, all of them are chain mail, this kind of armor is light in weight, strong in defense, ordinary swords and arrows are impenetrable."
"Then Governor, what are we going to do next," Orel asked Sevic for his life.
"Order the army to camp on the spot and wait for the arrival of subsequent reinforcements."
Sevich gave the military order.
"But Lord Governor, the military order given to us by His Majesty is to rescue Jade Dragon Jie Chicheng, so I am afraid that it will violate Your Majesty's military order."
Orel reminded Sevic.
"If Your Majesty were here, he would agree with my choice."
Sevich said to Orel: "We formed an alliance with Khorezm to jointly deal with the Great Xia Empire, and now that Khorezm has been wiped out by the Xia army, the relationship between us and Khorezm has also changed, and we are here to prevent the Xia army from swallowing Khorezm alone, do you understand, wait until the Xia army and the Khorezm army are both defeated, and then we will do it." ” The last general understands, thank you for your teachings."
On the other side, Galgar, who was holding on to the city, also got the news of the arrival of the Seljuk Empire's army, as early as when the Xia army attacked Khorezm, Galgar sent a messenger to the Seljuk Empire for help, originally Galgar was the Seljuk reinforcements would soon arrive, but what he didn't expect was that the wait was three months, and the Cypriot army did not arrive until Khorezm was about to fall.
"Father, are the Seljuk Empire's troops really here to rescue us?"
asked Silakhei to Galgar.
Galega thought for a while and said: "The current battle situation is very complicated, and the Serbian army may not come to rescue us sincerely, it is very likely that the Serbian army will finally sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, let us fight to the death with the Xia army, and finally come to pick up the bargain." ” "What are we going to do, Father," Silakhe asked Galgar.
Galga said to the types: "Now among the three kingdoms, our strength is the weakest, but we are also the most advantageous, because we have the fortified city of Jade Dragon Jiechi, as long as we can hold this city, neither the Xia army nor the Serbian army can transport our grain and grass from the rear, and hunting alone cannot solve the problem of food and grass for hundreds of thousands of troops, as long as we can keep holding the city, they will eventually retreat because of the exhaustion of ammunition and food." ” "It's still my father's wisdom" "The order to strengthen the city defenses, and mobilize all the people in the city to defend the city, it means that our reinforcements have arrived, and as long as we hold the city, there is hope for victory."
"Yes, the retainers are commanded" After the arrival of the Seljuk Empire, the Xia army was divided into two parts, the main army was still in the original camp led by Li Bingchang, the king of Jin, and Li Hao, the king of Yue, led an army of 30,000 to set up a large camp in the south of Yulongjie Chicheng to prevent the Seljuk Empire army from suddenly going north, and the arrival of the Serbian army made the Xia army have to divide its troops to resist.
In the camp of the Xia army, Li Bingchang, Li Hao, and Liang Yongneng sat on the side, as the supreme commander of the Xia army, the three of them will decide the life and death of these more than 100,000 Xia troops.
Li Bingchang asked the two: "What do you two think about this matter?"
Li Hao said to Li Bingchang: "Big brother, although the Serbian army has arrived, it has not launched an attack on us, if the judgment of the younger brother is not wrong, the Serbian army is likely to want to watch us and Khorezm fight to lose, and then come to pick up the cheap." ” "His Royal Highness King Yue's analysis is right, it's not that there is no such possibility."
Liang Yongneng also said.
"Then do you think we should continue to attack the city, or deal with the Cypriot army outside the city first."
Li Bingchang asked the two again.
"Big brother, I think it's better to make a temporary truce, find out the situation first, and it's not too late to do it."
Li Hao proposed.
Li Bingchang got up and walked to the map, looked at the map and said: "Now we are fighting alone, this battle will be related to the life and death of our more than 100,000 troops, both of you go down and let this king think about it." ” After the two left, Li Bingchang murmured: "Father, what would happen if you encountered this situation?"
Li Bingchang did not sleep all night, and after a night of ideological struggle, Li Bingchang made an important decision to continue the siege; However, the Cypriot army was not unprepared at all, and Li Bingchang sent ten artillery pieces, 3,000 bird-gunners and thirty return cannons from the besieging army to support Li Hao's army.
This time, Li Bingchang personally sat in the siege, and the attacker was also replaced by the Xia army, and Li Bingchang planned to take Yulongjie Chicheng in a battle; Li Bingchang understands that this is likely to be the last chance, and if he doesn't do it now, I'm afraid it'll be over; For this reason, Li Bingchang pressed everything he had.
Liang Yongneng came to Li Bingchang's side and asked, "Lord Wang, everything is ready. ” "Let's start attacking," Li Bingchang ordered.
"Artillery, return artillery fire" The explosion of "boom, boom, boom" sounded in the Jade Dragon Jie Chicheng, this time the Xia army used all its firepower output, three to four times stronger than before, and suddenly the Khwarazm army defending the city was blinded, and the bombs dropped by the Xia army kept exploding in the city and on the city wall, causing great casualties to the defenders' Khorezm army.
In the camp of the Cypriot army in the south of the city.
The loud explosion alarmed Sevic, who walked out of the tent and asked, "What is the sound, where is the thunder?"
” "The Governor doesn't seem to be thundering."
A general reported to Sevic: "It seems to have come from Yulongjie Chicheng, you see there is still a fire over there."
Sevic looked to the north and saw bursts of firelight, Sevic frowned and said, "What siege weapons did the Xia army use, how could there be such a big movement." ” Orel came to Sevich's side and said, "Your Excellency, according to what we have learned, the Xia army used a new weapon this time, it is said that they made a deal with the devil and learned witchcraft, and the total annihilation of the Kirti war against the Khorezm army is related to this new style. ” Sevic frowned and said, "Do you know what this weapon looks like?"
"It is said to be a very long iron pipe, some very thick and some very thin; They will emit fire.
Orel reported to Sevic.
"Newspaper, newspaper, newspaper" At this time, a spy came in and reported: "Your Excellency, the Xia army suddenly sent a large army two miles outside our camp and blocked the gates of our camp. ” Sevic frowned and said, "Let's go out and have a look." ” When Sevic came to the gate of the camp, he saw that the Xia army had placed ten artillery pieces and three thousand bird guns in front of his large array, and all of them were ready to attack; The Serbian army was firmly blocked in the camp by the Xia army, but if the cavalry of the Sai army rushed out of the camp at this time, it was not known who would win and who would lose in the end, after all, the Serbian army had 100,000 elites, and there was a veteran Sevic command.
The second more is presented, and there are votes:
