Chapter 295 The Xixia Kingdom Falls!
Both Ma Shoucheng and Zhang Jiangong were terrified. The target of the attack this time turned out to be Zhenbei Wang Xiaoqi!
Although their son-in-law did not suffer any harm, the two learned that the hundred assassins had never seen the king of Zhenbei, and they were wiped out.
But this still made the two of them terrified, and it made them more terrified than being surrounded by enemy troops several times their own on the battlefield.
No one could understand better than the four of them what Xiao Qi meant to the entire Great Song Dynasty, especially to the Changsheng Camp of the Great Song Dynasty.
From the very beginning, they followed Xiao Qi in the battle, and witnessed Xiao Qi bring out this invincible ever-victorious battalion from the originally vulnerable Song army.
Ma Shoucheng and Zhang Jiangong couldn't imagine that if something happened to Xiao Qi, who else could lead this ever-victorious battalion that was invincible all over the world!
Although the four of them are quite prestigious in the Changsheng Battalion now, they can mobilize troops from anywhere at will.
But it was because they got the military order from King Zhenbei that these soldiers obeyed their orders without blinking.
If King Zhenbei is really gone, although the four of them still have some prestige in the army, dispatching soldiers will definitely not be as smooth as before.
Moreover, although the four of them have a good relationship, it is also because of the presence of King Zhenbei Xiao Qi. If something happens to the King of Zhenbei, the four of them will soon cause troubles due to military power and other issues.
More importantly, because of Xiao Qi's existence, the Song Dynasty's style of emphasizing literature over martial arts has not spread to Changshengying.
If Xiao Qi, the big tree that sheltered all the generals of the Changsheng Battalion, was gone, none of the entire Changsheng Battalion, including the four of them, would be able to withstand the black hands of those civil officials in the court.
It is precisely because they understand these things that Ma Shoucheng and Qin Tu are so afraid, and then feel extremely angry in their hearts!
No matter who is behind the attack on the son-in-law, they will lead their troops to rush to kill him!
Ma Shoucheng and Zhang Jiangong, while following the analysis of Zhenbei King Xiao Qi, sent people to find people who understand nomadic writing to identify the writing on these weapons.
While mobilizing a [-] Changsheng Battalion soldiers equipped with new guns, once they find out where those weapons come from, they will immediately be led by Ma Shoucheng to wipe out that nomad!
Because Ma Shoucheng has been back for a long time and is more familiar with the use of new guns, the pamphlet given by the son-in-law to use these new weapons for combat has also been studied for a period of time. In any case, Ma Shoucheng is suitable for leading the army.
Zhang Jiangong provided logistical supplies for Ma Shoucheng in the rear, and by the way, studied the pamphlet that the son-in-law had just handed him, and was familiar with the characteristics of the new guns.
At this time, news of Xiao Qi's attack also spread to Lin'an, the capital city, and immediately shocked the government and the public.
Although those civil servants always wanted to knock Xiao Qi into the dust, they just didn't want Xiao Qi to be much higher than them.
They also knew that everyone in the Song Dynasty could die, but the King of Zhenbei could not die.
Otherwise, the Great Song hegemony that has just been established with great difficulty will surely fall apart and fall apart.
Emperor Zhao Shen was also very frightened by the news, and after learning that Xiao Qi was safe, he gave orders to the two generals Changshengying Ma Shoucheng and Zhang Jiangong who had just returned.
Order the two of them to quickly organize the army, and when they can find out who the main envoy is, they will immediately start a crusade without asking for orders.
Yongjia was terrified when he heard the news of Xiao Qi's assassination, so he hurried to Zhang Xiu's room to ask his sister Zhang Xiu for advice.
As the eldest princess of the palace, Zhang Xiu got the news earlier than Yongjia. Although she was also surprised, she followed Xiao Qi all the way to kill him in the sea of corpses and blood.
After learning that there were only 100 assassins, and they were all wiped out before reaching King Zhenbei's temporary residence, I felt more at ease.
From Zhang Xiu's point of view, just 100 people, not to mention not seeing Xiao Qi, even if they saw Xiao Qi, it would not be enough for Xiao Qi to kill alone!
Zhang Xiu is very confident about his man's force value, not to mention that his master gave him such a magical set of soft armor.
Zhang Xiu also had a set of that kind of armor. It was because of the protection of this set of soft armor that Zhang Xiu was able to lead the army unscathed and gained a great reputation.
Seeing Yongjia who ran to her in a panic, worried and crying, Zhang Xiu felt that this little girl was very pitiful. She had just survived enough to consummate the house, and her man went out to fight in a few days.
I just came back and heard that my man was attacked, any woman would be as flustered as Yong Jia when this happened to her.
I have Xiao Qin to take care of this little guy here, just let Yong Jia go to Xiao Qi's place to stay with the excuse of being worried. It is best to conceive a child. This family has not had a child for many years, and if there are rumors in a few days, it will be Oh no.
Zhang Xiu comforted Yongjia a few words, telling her that she had to take care of Xiao Qin and the family business, and asked Yongjia to take some people to take care of Zhenbei Wang's life.
Soon, half of the maids and servants in the palace were selected with high force values, and they were ordered to follow Yongjia to take care of King Zhenbei.
The news that Princess Yongjia, the second concubine of Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, brought a large number of servants and maidservants to leave the capital to visit the Prince of Zhenbei, spread to the palace, and Zhao Shen was very depressed.
It is said that the son can't help it, this girl is so worried about the safety of her husband and son-in-law, she even forgot to say hello to her father!
At this time, a servant came in to report that the eldest princess Zhang Xiu was leading the eldest son of Zhenbei Prince Xiao Qin to ask for an audience.
Zhao Shen quickly ordered someone to let the two nominal daughters and grandson in.
Zhang Xiu led Xiao Qin into the side hall, led Xiao Qin to bow to the emperor, and pleaded guilty to Zhao Shen, saying that because he heard that her husband had been attacked, he was worried about Xiao Qi's safety, and the two discussed that Yong Jia would bring someone to visit.
Because he was in a hurry and didn't have time to ask for instructions first, he led Xiao Qin to confess to his father.
Xiao Qin, who was like a little adult, fell to his knees and kowtowed to the emperor's grandfather, muttering in his mouth to ask his grandfather to forgive his mother Yongjia for leaving in a hurry.
When Zhao Shen saw Xiao Qin, the little guy who was loved by everyone in the palace, he immediately smiled and said to Zhang Xiu:
"It's okay! Knowing that the King of Zhenbei was attacked, I was quite worried as a father. Fortunately, the personal guards of the Changsheng Battalion were very powerful, and all the assassins were killed.
Yongjia was in a hurry to leave Wang Anwei in Zhenbei, and he understood it as a father.Qin'er, get up quickly and come to grandpa's place! "
Knowing that Xiao Qin, the happy fruit of the palace, had arrived, Zhao Gou and the concubines in the palace went to the side hall with delicious and fun food, which made the palace very lively.
The news of Zhenbei King's attack caused a huge commotion in the capital and the entire Song Dynasty. Suddenly, countless young and strong men in the entire Song Dynasty rushed to join the Changsheng Camp, vowing to crush the bandits who offended the God of War in their eyes.
Just talking about Ma Shoucheng and Zhang Jiangong, they quickly found people who could read the writing on the weapons.
When this old man was young, he used to be the guard of a caravan for a period of time. That large caravan mainly did business with various Mongolian tribes, selling tea, grain and daily necessities in the south, and trading back cattle and sheep skins, etc.
Because the old man was young and bright at that time, he knew a lot of Mongolian in those years.
He recognized the Mongolian characters on these weapons, and recognized the logo and some names of the Qiyan tribe on them.
Ma Shoucheng and Zhang Jiangong found several people who knew the Mongolian language again, and the answer they got was the same as that of the old man. They rewarded several people who recognized the source of these weapons.
Both Zhang Jiangong and Ma Shoucheng knew that the Mongols and Song Dynasty were separated by Xixia and Dajin, and there was no conflict of interest with Song Dynasty at all. There must be something hidden in this.
Immediately wrote letters to Xiao Qi and the imperial court, revealing the identity of the assassin, and reporting their suspicions.
After the letter was sent away, the two sent a large number of scouts from the Changsheng Battalion to carefully find out how these people entered the Song Dynasty, and began to prepare for the battle.
Now the entire Great Song Dynasty knows that Xiao Qi, King of Zhenbei, was attacked by assassins from the northern nomads, and the Changsheng Camp is tracking down where the assassins entered the Great Song Dynasty.
People across the northern border of the Song Dynasty gathered together to discuss who had seen a stranger a few days ago.
These people gathered together to chat about the suspicious situation they encountered. If other people also saw the same suspicious stranger at the same time, these people would go to Changsheng Camp to report together.
There were a lot of useful and useless news reported from various places. Ma Shoucheng and Zhang Jiangong did not dare to be careless, and immediately sent half of the Changsheng Battalion scouts to investigate and confirm with the local Changsheng Battalion soldiers who had received the news.
Now the entire northern part of the Great Song Dynasty is bustling. Although there are many suspicious situations that have nothing to do with the attack on King Zhenbei this time, it is a surprise that many details of the Xixia Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom have been uncovered.
Following the Changsheng Camp's thorough investigation of the suspicious points reported by the people everywhere, the scout camp finally found several traces of people sneaking in from several places bordering the Xixia Kingdom and the Great Song Dynasty based on the information provided by the people.
These traces entered from the border of the Song Dynasty all the way to the interior of the Song Dynasty, and all of them were in places where people were extremely rare. It was obvious that these people deliberately avoided people's sight.
In the end, these traces shuttled back and forth between several state capitals in the Song Dynasty. According to the route, it was the route that King Zhenbei traveled a few days ago.
Zhang Jiangong and Zhang Jiangong, who dismounted and defended the city, have confirmed that the hundred assassins entered the Great Song Dynasty via the Xixia Kingdom.
The two reported their findings to the imperial court and Xiao Qi again.
After being informed that they would launch troops to conquer Xixia immediately, and continue to attack the old nest of the Mongolian Qiyan tribe, Ma Shoucheng and Zhang Jiangong directly raised troops to attack Xixia.
The emperor had given an imperial decree before, as long as they found out where the murderer came from, the two of them could attack freely.
How could these two people just sit and wait for the court to reply!
Ma Shoucheng brought the [-] soldiers of Changsheng Battalion who had already prepared ammunition and food, and gathered on standby to enter the territory of Xixia, and swept all the way to Xingqing Mansion, the capital of Xixia.
Zhang Jiangong took tens of thousands of Changsheng Battalion, and quickly entered Xixia from Ma Shoucheng, and established logistics supply channels all the way behind, and ensured the smooth flow and safety of the supply channels.
As the Xixia people colluded with the Mongolian Qiyan tribe in an attempt to assassinate the king of Zhenbei, the Changsheng camp had already raised troops to fight Xixia, and news spread in the Song Dynasty that they wanted to bloodbath the Mongolian Qiyan tribe's lair.
More young people are scrambling to join the Changsheng Camp, and they must join the army to kill those alien races who blaspheme the God of War in their hearts.
It's a pity that the recruitment threshold of the Changsheng Battalion is getting higher and higher. Even if one is selected to become a sergeant of the Changsheng Battalion, a series of drills are required before going to the battlefield.
However, even though Changsheng Battalion now has stricter selection of soldiers, the Changsheng Battalion had nearly [-] more recruits in less than ten days!
To say that the person who least expects things to turn out like this is Li Renxiao, the ruler of Xixia.
Originally, he thought that forming an alliance would ensure that he would not be attacked by the Song people, but who knew that raising a tiger would be a threat, and raised a fierce tiger that would stare at him.
Finally, the tiger set its sights on the mighty Da Song, thinking that whether it was the ungrateful tiger of the Qiyan Tribe defeating Da Song, or Da Song's defeat of the Qiyan Tribe, it would be a good thing for Xixia.
As for the fact that the Begging Yan Department sent assassins to attack Xiao Qi, the Northern King of the Great Song Dynasty, Li Renxiao had already thought up an excuse. As long as the people of Song Dynasty came to ask him to be held accountable, he would just say that he didn't know about it.
Whether it is the Song people attacking the Qiyan tribe, or the Qiyan tribe attacking the Song Dynasty, if they want to borrow a way, just lend it to them and let them fight.
Who would have thought that people from the Song Dynasty would ignore this at all, and would not even ask if they were accomplices, and just start fighting!
When Li Renxiao heard that the [-] Great Song Changsheng Battalion was in full swing, and the Xixia army was in front of them, even if they blocked them to slow down their attack speed, they couldn't do it.
He knew that his Xixia Kingdom was over!
Li Renxiao, who had been thinking about sitting on the mountain and watching tigers fight, sadly discovered at this time that his little calculation in front of his real strength was a joke at all!
Ignoring the persuasion of his ministers, Xixia still has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in various places. If they are gathered together, they will definitely be able to fight the Song people.
Li Renxiao handed all the general and political power to the ministers of the DPRK and asked them to summon all the armies of Xixia to stop the Song army. He took his [-] forbidden troops and fled to the Kingdom of Jin with all the property he could take away.
Those Xixia ministers who got the important military and political power that they thought about day and night thought they could take this opportunity to monopolize the power.
Even if he is defeated after this battle, he can establish his own prestige among the army and the people. Even if Li Renxiao returns to Xixia in the future, his climate is already done, and Li Renxiao can only obediently be a puppet emperor.
But they had a good idea, when these guys were mobilizing Xixia's army around, and at the same time they were stumbling each other to grab power.
The Great Song Changsheng Battalion, which has always been adhering to the fact that soldiers are precious and fast, and that the start of the war is a blitzkrieg, took only three days to fight outside the capital of Xixia.
At this time, the ministers came back to their senses and finally understood why Li Renxiao handed over all the rights to them as soon as he heard that the Song people were calling, and ran away without looking back.
It turns out that people have long known that the Great Song Changsheng Camp is not something a weak country like Xixia can compete with.
I blame myself and others for being deluded by power!
Several people gathered together and muttered, "Let's go ball!"
This emperor does not belong to our family, Li Renxiao has run away, and we are still tossing wool!
So these people opened the city gate and asked Ma Shoucheng to surrender.
At this point, less than three days after the war started, the Xixia Kingdom fell!
