Under the pressure of the Great Xia Empire, Dali finally sent troops, Dali sent 150,000 troops to the north, and within half a month, the southern states of the Great Song Dynasty were connected, it can be said that the army of Dali Kingdom took the Great Song Dynasty by surprise, and the Great Song Dynasty court never thought that Dali, a small frontier country located in the middle of nowhere, dared to launch an attack on itself, and the attack of Dali State contained a considerable part of the Song army's strength, but these restrictions were also very limited. \ The surrounding area of Weicheng has now been surrounded by the 200,000 troops of the Sichuan and Shu army, and the 50,000 Yizhou army led by Li Yue has been completely surrounded, and the Song army is still increasing its troops.
During this time, although the Xia army has been repairing, it has not been idle, and Li Yue paid for a large amount of wine and meat from the people of Shuzhong in the surrounding villages and towns to work the army.
In the big tent of the Xia Army, Xu Da hurriedly walked in and said to Li Yue, who was drinking and eating meat: "My commander, don't drink, now the camp is surrounded by water, and the grain and grass have been eaten up, and we will be starved to death if we continue like this." ” Li Yue smiled drunkenly: "Don't worry, starvation, how much grain and grass do we have now?"
"There is still a day's food, if we don't send troops tomorrow, this 50,000 army will be completely finished."
Xu Da said with a sad face.
"Isn't there still a day's food, come and sit down, drink wine and eat meat with Ben Shuai."
Li Yue said to Xu Da.
Xu Da had no choice but to sit down and drink sullen wine on the side, while Li Yue was still eating and drinking, and he didn't take these things to heart at all; The next morning, just after dawn, there was a sudden rush of war drums in the camp of the Xia army, and the soldiers of the Xia army who were sleeping immediately put on their armor and picked up their weapons and went to the colonel's field to assemble, but at this time, Li Yue, who was still drunk last night, was standing on the colonel's platform like no one else The assembly speed of the Xia army was still very fast, and after the assembly of the army, Xu Da was late; Li Yue glanced at Xu Da and then said to the whole army: "Brothers, now you should already know our situation, there are 200,000 Song troops around us, and our army now only has a day's food; Come and eat. ” It didn't take long for all the wine and meat to be put on the table, and Li Yue continued to say to everyone: "Brothers, you are all warriors of the Great Xia Empire, in the past we were invincible and invincible, and today we can do the same, although the strength of the Song army is several times that of us, but they are all recruits who have not been on the battlefield, and they can't compare with us at all, brothers who want to leave here alive, after eating the last meal, they will follow Ben Shuai and kill them all."
"Kill them all, kill them all," all the Xia soldiers roared with thunder.
It wasn't until this moment that Xu Da understood what Li Yue meant, this is the so-called desire to survive in the place of death can bring unprecedented courage to the soldiers of the Xia Army, and can make the soldiers of the Xia Army burst out with super combat effectiveness, which is exactly what Li Yue needs now.
"What's going on, what's the sound," Wu Jie asked the generals beside him.
"Marshal, it seems to be the voice of the Xia army camp" As soon as the general's words were spoken, an officer guarding the camp came in and said, "Marshal, the Xia army has sent a letter of challenge, and if you want to fight with our army, you will have to fight with our army." ” "Marshal, do we want to fight," the general said to Wu Jie.
"What do you mean?"
Wu Jie asked the general instead.
The general said to Wu Jie: "According to the last generals, we are not good at facing the battle, and now that the Xia army has run out of ammunition and food, as long as our army continues to besiege, we can take this Xia army without much effort." ” "Makes sense."
Wu Jie said to the general: "But you haven't thought about it comprehensively, if our army doesn't accept the challenge of the Xia army, what do you think the next move of the Xia army will be?"
"Then what else can I do to stick to the camp."
The general said to Wu Jie.
Wu Jie shook his head and said: "No, the Xia army will not stick to the big camp, they will break through, once the Xia army breaks through and encircles them, it will be difficult to annihilate them, the combat power of the Xia army You should know that if they really let them enter the hinterland of Sichuan and Shu, the people behind us will suffer; In this marshal has received the news, the Xia army's reinforcements have come, the Xia army sent reinforcements from the west road and the north road respectively, and also encouraged Dali to attack our army from the south.
Therefore, if you want to resist the follow-up Xia army, you must completely wipe out this Xia army, order the army to assemble immediately, and send someone to Li Yue to send a message, saying that the marshal accepts his war letter. ” "Yes, the Admiral understands."
The general immediately received the order.
After the war book was sent to Wu Jie's hands, the 50,000 Xia army left the camp under the leadership of Li Yue, after the Xia army left, Li Yue burned his own camp, that is to say, from now on all the retreats of the Xia army have been broken, this battle will be related to the life and death of 50,000 Xia army soldiers, if defeated, I am afraid there is only a dead end, if it is a tragic victory, it is in vain, for the Xia army must win a big victory, only a big victory can take the necessities of life from the Song army.
The war drums of "knock, knock, knock" sounded from the battlefield, Li Yue looked at the dense Song army array opposite him, today's Song army is not only 200,000 troops, but 300,000 troops, and this number is still rising as time goes by, although the Song army has a large number of troops, the training for major events is extremely limited, especially the soldiers and horses who arrived later have not received much training at all, the main force of the Song army is the 200,000 elite troops of the Song army that have been rigorously trained.
Looking at the large array of the Song army, Li Yue ordered: "Xu Da obeys the order, with the sound of artillery as the signal, you lead all the cavalry to attack the Song army's large array, and the target is directly aimed at the Song army's large formation, and you want to cut off the head of Wu Jie's to see Ben Shuai." ” "Yes, the last general commands" "Artillery, return guns, bed crossbows ready to be placed" Wu Jie's order, five artillery pieces and dozens of return artillery began to launch a fierce attack on the Song army's large array, the fierce fire oil and flowering shells caused great casualties to the Song army, at the same time Xu Da led the more than 30,000 cavalry under the cover of artillery fire to the Song army's large array.
After being attacked by the artillery of the Xia army, Wu Jie also ordered: "Order the whole army to press the attack" The two armies clashed fiercely outside the city of Wei, the Sichuan and Shu armies were mainly foot soldiers, and the losses were not small under the blows of the Xia army's artillery and cavalry, but these losses were a drop in the bucket for the Song army, as the Song army got closer and closer to the Chinese army of the Xia army, the Chinese army under the personal command of Li Yue also began to launch a pass on the Song army; The Bird Gun used the method of three strikes, and used a dense rain of bullets to put the attacking Song army within the range of the Xia Army's Bird Gun
