Chapter 1438 1114. The Battle to Suppress the Rebellion (Central)

It's not that they can't get hot air balloons.

They really belong to Duan Qilin, and Duan Qilin has the technology of hot air balloons. If they want this technology, Duan Qilin will definitely not give it to them.

It's just that they can't.

Pang Hongguang and others clearly belonged to the Xixia. Li Xiushu must have visited Lizhou, Fengxiang and other roads under their rule.

Li Xiushu's hot air balloons are only provided among the Qitian Army and the Imperial Army. If they find that they also have hot air balloons, what should they explain?

At that time, their identity as the New Song Detective will be exposed.

Therefore, since he defected to Xixia, Pang Hongguang and others were honest and did not expand their strength in their defenders.

Pang Hongguang, Jia Fenghua, Fengxiang, and Lintao Jiedushi were under the command of the two military governors, and there was no hot air balloon army in their territory.

Listening to the sound of killing behind, the Lintao general felt that the chill in his heart was constantly intensifying.

Just now, his chances of winning are no longer great. Just waiting for Qu Rujian's Qitian Army to take off, his Lintao Army will inevitably fall into a doomed place.

unless……

After rushing outside the camp gate, the main general of Lintao did not continue to rush inside, but just hid himself in the army. At this moment, he suddenly looked at the personal guards next to him.

He said: "You will immediately lead your army to break through and report to Tongchuan Prefecture. Please send troops to help me! I will deal with you here, maybe I can hold on for a while!"

After all, he still has more than 20,000 soldiers, plus more than 20,000 troops on Fengxiang Road. If he commanded properly, it would not be easy for Heliancheng, Qu Rujian and Li Zhengqin to eliminate them in a short time.

"yes!"

The general of the personal guard had long realized the seriousness of the matter, so he immediately took the order and led his subordinates back.

The fight continues.

The Lintao Army continued to launch an attack on the barracks.

The imperial guards under Qu Rujian firmly blocked the gate of the camp and the fences on both sides.

The fighting between the two armies gradually became smooth.

After about ten minutes, several miles west of the camp, the chief general Fengxiang led his subordinates to the outside of the imperial guard camp under Heliancheng.

They also launched a direct attack on the camp.

There are countless torches in the army.

There were archers who were still more than a hundred meters away from the camp and shot arrows into the camp.

At the same time, countless fires suddenly appeared in the camp. Many artillery chariots appeared in the fire.

Heliancheng also used artillery formation to face the enemy.

The sound of cannons resounded throughout the Xixia Military Region.

This is probably a shock to the Song Dynasty imperial guards of Zheng Yihang and Du Hu, who are not far from here.

The Fengxiang Army was blocked by fierce artillery fire in the military camp.

They were also a little confused by the continuous artillery fire.

The chief general Fengxiang realized that something was wrong at this moment. At this moment, it could not be said that the arrow was on the string, but that the arrows had been fired.

He has no way out.

Now that the troops are withdrawing, the Western Xia imperial guards in the barracks will definitely take advantage of the situation to pursue them. At that time, he will only be defeated faster.

So he could only raise his gun and shout: "Kill! Kill!"

And such shouts really couldn't be heard far amid the sound of artillery fire.

The situation where the Fengxiang Army's offensive was blocked was difficult to change.

At this moment, several miles eastward, countless hot air balloons slowly took off. I am afraid there will be nearly 2,000.

The Qitian Army under Qu Rujian's command should have been dispatched.

Li Zhengqin rushes toward the Lintao Army at the battle, giving them enough time and room to lift the hot air balloons into the air.

So many hot air balloons are like stars in the night sky. In an instant, I don’t know how many people’s attention is attracted.

Fengxiang and the soldiers from Lintao were afraid that they all felt cold in their hearts.

Even if they have never seen hot air balloons, they must have known that hot air balloons are powerful. Looking at the battles of various countries, hot air balloons are indispensable weapons.

This has long made the hot air balloon famous all over the world.

In the military camp of Heliancheng, Heliancheng couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw the hot air balloon slowly lifting off the air.

They are sure to win.

He shouted: "Soldiers! Our hot air balloons have taken off! Victory is imminent, keep these rebels out for me!"

A neat response sounded in the army.

Screams, the sound of arrows breaking through the air, the sound of swords and swords, and the sound of cannonballs, the sound of continuous sound.

The soldiers on both sides may not know what happened. Why did Fengxiang and Lintao suddenly turn against each other? All they could do was to fight with the generals.

This is their ethics as soldiers.

Time passes slowly.

This night, the Jialing River was destined to be a river of blood.

If Fengxiang and Lintao army win, it would never give Heliancheng the people's way.

As for Heliancheng, Qu Rujian's Western Xia imperial guards will surely wipe out Fengxiang and Lintao armies.

Only in this way can Xixia be stable.

After Qu Rujian's Qitian Army completely took off, it did not bomb the Lintao Army. Instead, it flew through the sky and headed straight towards the barracks of Heliancheng.

But this did not make the Lintao chief general's face improve at all.

Of course he knew what the Qitian Army was trying to go to the military camp of Helian City.

Here, his army has been suppressed by the Imperial Army and Li Zhengqin's Western Lizhou Army, and there is no need to let the Qitian Army take action.

On the other side of Helian City, it can only be said that it is evenly matched with Fengxiang Army. The Qitian Army rushed over and was going to lay the foundation for the victory.

But what can he do?

On the ground, he could only watch the hot air balloons fly towards the military camp of Heliancheng.

All hope is placed in the hands of the personal guard who went to Tongchuan Mansion to ask for help.

A little further to the west.

Inside the military camps of Zheng Yihang and Du Hu.

Zheng Yihang hurried to Du Hu's tent and found Du Hu.

As soon as we met, we smiled and said, "Captain Du, it seems that the fight has started over there."

"hehe."

Du Hu also chuckled, "I think the rebels in Xixia can't hold back. Heliancheng and the others should have a great advantage after hearing the cannon sound."

Although the cannons are dense, they still have rules. I think it is impossible for the artillery troops from Fengxiang, Lintao and other routes.

Because the large army usually has some concerns during the attack. Moreover, it is not convenient to take the cannon chariot to go there with it.

Zheng Yihang said again: "Then are we preparing for this?"

Du Hu pondered slightly, then nodded: "It's time. If the Lizhou West Route Army receives the news, they run away, and they will have to chase them out."

After saying that, I couldn't help laughing.

Then Zheng Yihang left Du Hu's military camp and went into his own military camp.

Both of them woke up the soldiers overnight, hurriedly prepared to head to the West Lizhou Road Army Camp, which was about ten miles north of them.

This is nothing to the soldiers of the Song Dynasty.

In their usual training, it is common for them to be awakened by the generals at night. This is specially used to deal with emergencies.

The two military camps were in an instant and the soldiers moved.

The soldiers of the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty put on their armor as fast as possible, and then hurried to the open space in the military camp to gather.

There are no heavy firearms in the entire army. The heaviest ones are grenade launchers and hot air balloons, and these two things are not particularly heavy.

The grenade can be regarded as a single combat weapon, and it is more than enough to carry the hot air balloon with five soldiers.

Zheng Yihang and Du Hu stood on the high platform in front of the army wearing armor.

They didn't say much, just shouted out two words, "Go to the expedition!"

In about less than a quarter of an hour, the Song Dynasty imperial guards in the two camps left the camp and headed north side by side.

The military's food, grass and heavy equipment were left in the military camp.

The chief guard of Lintao Road led his personal guards to rush out of the battlefield at this time.

The imperial guards under Qu Rujian did not break out of the camp, and no one stopped them at all.

It is naturally unknown whether they can successfully invite reinforcements in Tongchuan Prefecture and whether reinforcements can come in time.

The wars in the entire Tongchuan Prefecture and the Xixia border are still far from being known.

Qu Rujian's Qitian Army had already launched bombing outside the military camp in Helian City.

This made the Fengxiang Army, who had not been able to break the camp, exploded so much that it was lost.

They rushed in and couldn't rush in, and the main general was slow to issue a retreat order. They were covered by nearly two thousand hot air balloons, and the situation can be imagined.

In just such a short time, the soldiers of Fengxiang Army had lost countless losses.

In this case, the morale of the army will naturally be dispersed.

Many soldiers did not care about executing military orders anymore, and fled in all directions to survive.
