Chapter 258 - Precious women
Kill!
Li Xianzhong roared. With a wave of the sword in his hand, a Sword Qi flashed and a Western Xia soldier in front of him fell into a pool of blood.
"As for the national destiny, everyone is fighting for it! If you use me in this battle, I will definitely win! "
Under Li Xianzhong's lead, the rest of the soldiers fought to be the first to rush forward.
There were thousands and thousands of Western Xia citizens in front of them, all of them wielding weapons, but Li Xianzhong and the others did not have any fear, they wanted to use their own flesh and blood to block these Western Xia citizens! They wanted more of their comrades to rush to the wall and defeat the Western Xia together.
They rushed to the front, continuously killing the enemy!
One of the soldiers moved forward with all his might. A Western Xia soldier waved his machete and the soldier's body flashed backward. However, he was still unable to dodge! Blood splattered everywhere. The soldier's face was covered in blood, and both of his eyes had been blinded! Waves of intense pain came!
However, even in such a situation, he still did not retreat. He bellowed as he charged forward, the sword in his hand constantly swinging.
"Come! Come on! "Come at me!" The soldier roared again and again. He moved forward recklessly. Several pikes had pierced his body. He turned into a man made of blood, but he did not retreat.
Seeing how brave he was, the Western Xia people cried out in alarm and scattered away.
"You cowards! If you have the ability, continue to come! " He continued to roar, but his body eventually lost too much blood and he gradually stopped moving. His body started to shake violently.
The people of the Western Xia seemed to have noticed the advantage and rushed forward once again.
Moments later, more than ten scimitars landed on the body of this Song soldier, and he finally collapsed on the ground.
However, even though this soldier fell, more soldiers still advanced forward. Each of them were not afraid of their own life or death, they only wanted to push back the thousands of Western Xia people and let their comrades come to the top of the city wall.
An hour had passed, and almost all of the previous five hundred personal guards had died, but at this moment, even more Song soldiers had arrived on the city wall. Right now, the number of soldiers from the Song Army exceeded a thousand.
When these one thousand people arrived, their combat strength was even greater than before.
The sky was already starting to brighten. From the northwest side of the city wall, more and more Western Xia citizens were being killed. More and more Western Xia citizens didn't have the courage to continue staying here.
The soldiers of the Song Army continued to die, and so did the soldiers of the Song Army. However, Song Bing's reckless fighting spirit had deeply shocked them, and they didn't dare to continue fighting.
Countless people from the Western Xia were trembling, and people began to retreat from the city walls.
Just as the northwest wall was about to be conquered, Li Xianzhong couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.
However, at this moment, a voice came from below the city walls.
The song was produced by someone from the same language, Li Xianzhong did not know what the song meant.
However, the song was filled with sorrow, as if it was the voice of a nation on the verge of destruction. After hearing this voice, the expressions of the Western Xia people, who had already exposed a timid look, changed greatly. They actually rushed forward one after the other, disregarding life and death, and started to fight the Song Army once again.
After a while, a few hundred females appeared on top of the city walls. These females actually wielded swords and sabers in their hands as well.
Many women also headed towards the Song Army.
The leading girl was a young lady who was seventeen or eighteen years old. She was extremely beautiful, who else could she be other than Ren Yuqin?
She didn't have any martial arts skills, but she stubbornly charged forward with her weapon raised.
"Imperial Concubine!" It's actually the imperial concubine! " The Western Xia people beside him all shouted.
Countless people from Western Xia rushed to her side and stopped her. There were also countless people who took the swords from her hands and rushed forward.
It turned out that the song from before had come from her.
Those hundreds of women were actually palace maids from the Western Xia Imperial Palace. Right now, she was bringing these palace maids to the battlefield.
That song was a traditional song of the Party member. Back then, the Party member was also split into countless of tribes, and that song was transmitted when a tribe was about to be annihilated, passed down from generation to generation until now. The song described the tragic treatment experienced by the men, women, and children of the tribe after their tribe was destroyed. Among them, there was the complaint made by the women towards the men, and they believed that the men of the tribe could not be considered to be men!
Under the uplifting song, those Western Xia people unexpectedly once again mustered up their courage.
They numbered far more than the Song Army, and when the sun rose, the number of Song Army on the city wall became fewer and fewer. Only Li Xianzhong was still immersed in his blood.
"General!" Our soldiers are all dead and wounded! Let's go! If we stay here, we will die. " A janissary beside him, who was also covered in wounds, said while gritting his teeth.
"But we have already paid such a heavy price, and we have yet to take this place down! My heart is unwilling! Even if I die today, I will die here! I want to kill more of the Western Xia people! " Li Xianzhong said in grief.
He struck again with his sword, and another Western Xia person fell into a pool of blood.
However, just at this moment, the janissary who was talking to him previously rushed forward crazily. This janissary seemed to have gone crazy at this moment. The saber in his hand danced together, forcing the people of the Western Xia to retreat one after another.
"Liu Yu, have you gone mad?" Li Xianzhong said loudly.
"General, quickly retreat!" I'll stop them for you! You are different from us ordinary soldiers, you are the ruler of the Shanbei Forbidden Army! We can all die here. You can't die here! If you die, what will the hundred thousand brothers do? " The janissary had been stabbed, but he continued to speak crazily.
"General!" His Majesty already has great hopes for you. Not because he wants you to die here, but because he wants you to lead an army and destroy Western Xia! " Seeing that Li Xianzhong had not pushed him down, the janissary roared again.
"This... "This..." Li Xianzhong was furious and in pain at the same time!
Li Xianzhong had already killed one of them, and just at this time, the other personal guard at the side also rushed forward without a care for anything else.
"General!" Hurry up and leave! You can't die here! " Another person said.
"Good!" I know! I'm leaving now! Rest assured, I will definitely exterminate the Western Xia! " Li Xianzhong said with tears in her eyes.
He finally retreated from the city walls! Not a single one of his janissaries survived!
The day had come, and the siege had not stopped.
Song Army repeatedly rushed to the top of the city walls, but she was always chased down.
From morning onwards, Western Xia women came to the city wall one after another.
By noon, the number of women had increased.
By dusk, the number of women was almost the same as the number of men.
These women also participated in the defense of the city. Their strength was limited, but their courage actually surpassed that of the Western Xia men.
Many times, there were places that were about to be conquered, and those Western Xia men had already retreated one after another. Thousands of Western Xia women rushed over and replaced those Western Xia men. They used their bodies to resist the Song Army, who knows how many women fell in pools of blood.
As the sun set in the west, Zhao Chen stood atop a tall platform, his face also carrying a shocked expression.
In the final moments of national destruction, any people can show a valuable side. Just like that day in Taiyuan City, almost all the citizens of the city died in battle. Just like in the history of the Jinguo, at that time, the female true qi had already declined, and her fighting strength was extremely low. She was far from being a match for the Mongols, but at the last moment, all the Nvzhen were trying their best to resist, the emperor would rather commit suicide than surrender to the Mongols. At this moment, Zhao Chen had also seen the most valuable side of the Party member.
At this moment, Zhao Chen was extremely appreciative of these Western Xia women!
But even so, Zhao Chen still wanted to take down Xingqing Mansion! For the future of their nation, they must step on the shoulders of outsiders! Destroying the Western Xia was inevitable, it was impossible to stop!
"Continue the siege!" If a woman's strength is limited, we can fight for days and nights, but can they do the same? Sooner or later, their strength will be exhausted! " Zhao Chen said.
Curved End and Yu Yunwen nodded their heads.
On the night of the sixth of April, the siege did not stop.
However, on the morning of the seventh day of the fourth month, those women still persisted.
The Song Army was still attacking the city. Even until the tenth day of April, and after four days and three nights, the Xingqing Mansion still had not fought yet.
Zhao Chen frowned, in the afternoon, Ming Jin's voice finally rang out! Song Army retreated like the tide!
Zhao Chen summoned all of the generals together in his own army camp to discuss the siege once more.
