Chapter 1075 It would be a disgrace if you captured the city and couldn't defend it (first update)
Chapter 1084

"Marshal, why don't we temporarily withdraw our troops and return to Xiazhou?" A Liao general stood up and suggested to Yelu Dadun, whose face was sinking like water, with some hesitation.

"Inappropriate!" As soon as he finished speaking, someone stood up and objected. "Now that our army is in a hurry to attack, if we withdraw our troops hastily, wouldn't it give the Song army at Sanchakou a chance to breathe?"

"The last general thought that a messenger should be sent immediately to order General Xiao, who was rushing to the mouth of Wanjing, to march eastward and rush to Xiazhou for reinforcements. In addition, the Amitabha Cave should have received the news. In this way, Under what circumstances are the two armies, how can the solitary army's deep-rooted cultivation way be able to please."

"Well, it makes sense, let's do it like this, come here, immediately go after General Xiao Zhongwen, tell him, immediately turn to the east, rush to Xiazhou for reinforcements, within three days, you must reach Xiazhou City, otherwise, the military will deal with it." "Yeludedun nodded in agreement, and immediately ordered.

"Also, I don't know if troops have been dispatched to Amitabha Cave. Amitabha Cave is only two hundred miles away from Xiazhou, so it should have received the military information earlier than us."

"Don't worry, Commander. General Guangxian will definitely send troops to rescue Xiazhou as soon as possible. As long as General Guangxian's army can cooperate with the Xiazhou defenders to entangle Master Zhongdao, in this way, when General Xiao's army arrives, it will be surrounded on three sides. Come on, hey, maybe we can make those Song dogs drink a lot."

#####
The south gate of Xiazhou City was unlucky, and it collapsed together with the city tower.Of course it was the Song Army who did it, but now that Xiazhou City has been occupied by the Song Army, it is natural that this section of the collapsed city wall, which is more than ten feet long, must be erected again in the shortest possible time.

Right now, there are more than a thousand soldiers, sweating profusely, digging and moving those mud, sand, bricks and stones.

"Brothers, work harder, hurry up, no matter what, before midnight tonight, this place must be cleaned up and the wall must be rebuilt." Someone kept encouraging the soldiers loudly,

"Hey, what's this called? It's easy to destroy, but hard to build. Damn, it's really hard to clean up so much silt." A battalion commander wiped the stinky sweat from his forehead and watched it being cleaned up. But a little more than a third of the ruins.

"Then what should we do? Who made Yuanyou's trebuchet battalion so powerful, and destroyed such a section of the city wall in just half an hour." The buddy next to him also had a complicated expression.

"But having said that, I've been Qiu Ba for half my fucking life, and this is the first time I've seen the siege battle turn out to be so simple."

"Who knows, if you want me to say, our Wang Jinglue is really a god among gods, a pile of broken wood, let him tinker with such a sharp weapon, the ancient city of Wuyan was smashed by this thing back then. The 5 people in Xixia were in a panic, and tens of thousands were captured by my Song Dynasty.

In Nayouzhou City, relying on this thing, all the siege equipment of the Liao army were smashed into pieces.Let the hundreds of thousands of troops can only honestly climb the ladder to attack the city..."

"You guys, don't brag about me. Don't hurry up. If you can't clear the ruins and rebuild the city wall before midnight, you can wait for the military law to deal with it."

Just when they were full of emotions, they annoyed the boss who was in charge of rebuilding the city wall and reprimanded them with a black face. Finally, this group of bragging bastards cheered up and joined the clean-up work.

There was still half an hour before midnight, and the cleaning was almost done. Wooden boxes loaded with stones or soil were filled in one after another, and then buckets of cement that had been mixed began to be poured into them. , and the surrounding area naturally needs to be reinforced with wooden boards to prevent the undried cement mortar from flowing everywhere.

The cleaning work took a lot of time, but the rebuilding seemed much simpler.The only worrying thing is that such a large cement building will take at least three or four days to dry completely.

However, the Liao army would not wait for such a long time. For this reason, Zhong Shidao simply ordered to build a three-foot-thick brick wall on the periphery of the cement wall, and then used the demolished bricks. More than [-] heavy crossbows were also placed on the nearby city wall to give the city wall, which is not so strong yet, the greatest degree of protection.

The whole night seemed so quiet, and the news from the scattered scouts was that they had not encountered any enemy troops. It was not until the next day near noon that Zhong Shidao received the scouts from Dongze, Xiazhou. incoming news.

At least 3 horses are coming towards Xiazhou from the direction of Amitabha Cave.After hearing the news, Zhong Shidao immediately rushed to the south wall of Xiazhou City, and inspected the rebuilt city wall.

Well, compared to the majestic and tall city gate building before, the appearance of the south city gate today is really horrible.

There are no city gates, and there are no city gate towers. What is there is just a brand new city wall, and the outer protective wall protrudes a few feet away.

In addition, they were all built by non-professionals, and they needed to be rushed, so the appearance of the outer wall looks a bit horrible, but it is solid.

"My lord, the sun has stopped today, so as long as the temperature can be maintained, this section of the city wall will become the strongest section of the city wall in the entire Xiazhou." The person in charge of cleaning and rebuilding The general confidently reported to Zhongshidao.

"Thank you for your hard work. However, within two hours at most, [-] Liao troops will reach Xiazhou city. General Wang, how is your Yuanyou catapult battalion doing?"

"Don't worry, general, enough blank space has been cleared 25 feet away from this section of the city wall. All Yuanyou stone throwing machines have been reassembled. In addition, after entering the city yesterday, [-] catapults have been produced. Stone bullets can come in handy at night at the latest. And now, we still have nearly a hundred stone bullets available for use.”

"Well, very good, by the way, go to the navy again and tell that old man Zhe Keshi about the situation on our side. Also, tell the brothers to cheer up, the city has been captured, but If you can't keep it, it will be disgraceful to our Great Song Xijun, and to our North Shaanxi Road Economic Strategy Conciliator Mr. Wang, understand?!"

"No!!!" Hearing Wang Jinglue's name and thinking of the violent temper of this famous immediate boss, everyone's heart shuddered, and they sternly agreed.

At this moment, Mituo Cave Commander Guangxian has commanded [-] elite troops and has rushed to a place only eighty miles away from Xiazhou. But at this moment, he suddenly ordered the whole army to stop advancing, and asked to camp on the spot and have a good night's rest. , set off again tomorrow morning.

This kind of military order directly made all the generals in the army feel dissatisfied. After all, asking for soldiers is like putting out fire. If you don’t rush over at this time, you will miss the important military plan. Let alone people like yourself, even you, the commander, will suffer rise.

But soon, when they left their respective soldiers and rushed to the tent of the Chinese army that was hastily built, they no longer thought about it that way.
