Before we knew it, seven days had passed. Li De had basically not slept a few times during these seven days. A large amount of supplies in Bianliang City were continuously transported to Mangdang Mountain through canal ships. At the same time, the Xia army used the people to build a solid camp in Mangdang Mountain. In just seven days, the Xia army transported millions of stones of food and grass to Mangdang Mountain, and immediately a large number of weapons, armor, arrows and the captured thunder.

"Report, report, report... Report to the prince, the Song army vanguard from the west has arrived in Zhengzhou." An officer hurriedly ran in and reported to Li De.

"Discover again and report..." Li De frowned and said.

After the officer left, Li De said to himself: "According to the speed of the Song army, the vanguard of Zhong Shidao's army should arrive in three days, but now less than one-third of the food, grass and weapons in the city have been transported. It's just impossible to take them all away. It's better to burn them completely! To eliminate future troubles..."

In fact, Li De was in a very dangerous situation at this time. In order to transport more supplies, Li De sent out most of his troops. Now there are only 10,000 Xia troops in Bianliang City, and they are also guarding various strategic locations. In addition to the Song army on the west route, the Song army led by Zhang Dunli on the south route has arrived in Chicang Town. The 30,000 elite Song army soldiers from the north have just crossed the Yellow River and arrived in Huazhou. From the map, the roads on the west, north and south of the Song army have been blocked, so they can only turn east and head south along the canal.

However, Li De was really unwilling to let Li De give up Bianliang like this. He exhausted his scheming in order to get Li De in Bianliang City. Although he knew that he would give up sooner or later, when he really gave up, Li De was a little reluctant. Even if he wanted to leave Li De, he was unwilling to throw it to the Song army for nothing. In order to stop the Song army's attack, Li De made some arrangements in Bianliang City. Of course, the first thing he had to do was to burn all the food and grass that he could not leave.

Three days later, the last Xia army's canal fleet at the Bianhe Wharf had been loaded. At this time, the Song army had already entered the city from the west of Bianliang City. At the same time, thick smoke rose in the east city. All the supplies originally stored in the Song army in the west city had been burned by the Xia army. At the same time, this was also the beginning of the competition for Bianliang.

"Prince, you see, the Song army should be from the west of the city like a city." A general said, pointing to the thick smoke in the west.

Li De patted the general's shoulder and said, "Protect the fleet and go!"

"Prince, why don't you leave the general behind to block the Song army!" the general said to Li De.

"If you want to leave, that's that much nonsense." Li De said with an unhappy face; "Get out of here quickly, I will tell you that the important things are that the little Mao I can't spare you, get out."

"Yes, the last general takes the order..." The general bowed Li De and said.

After the fleet slowly sailed away from the Bianhe Wharf, Li De led his own soldiers back to Bianliang City. At this time, the battle in Bianliang City had begun. In the past few days, the Xia army was already very familiar with Bianliang City. Relying on the advantage of the terrain, the Xia army used crossbows, bed crossbows and firearms to stubbornly block the Song army's troops entering the city. After entering the city, the Song army advanced forward without much distance and could not attack. The Xia army completely suppressed the Song army with its advantage of firepower.

"How is the situation?" Li De asked the guard officer after coming to the front line.

"Prince, the Song army's offensive was very fierce at the beginning, but it can be seen that the Song army had not entered the city, and at most it was more than 3,000 people." The officer reported to Li De.

Li De sneered: "There are only more than 3,000 people who dare to launch a large-scale attack and kill them without saying anything."

"But Prince, we are short of troops now, and we have more than 800 people in our hands. If we don't let the brothers from other places support us!" the officer suggested to Li De.

"There is no need for eight hundred people." Li De said confidently; "Didn't I remember that I had stored some gunpowder in the West City? I brought it all out for me."

"Yes, I'm not going to take the order..."

Soon five barrels of gunpowder were moved in. All of these gunpowder were arranged in Bianliang City. There was a gunpowder factory in the Song Dynasty in Bianliang City. However, due to the war, almost all the workers in the gunpowder factory ran away. After occupying Bianliang, Li De once resumed the work of the gunpowder factory. In just a few days, he also configured a lot of gunpowder. However, most of the gunpowder and firearms transported by the Xia army were reserves in the Song army warehouses seized before. Before the Xia army's large troops evacuated, most of the gunpowder and firearms had been moved away. At the same time, there were a large amount of raw materials. The remaining Li De planned to use it for the defense of Bianliang City, but not many.

After the five barrels of gunpowder were brought in, under Li De's command, the Xia army made all the five barrels of gunpowder into explosives and hid them in the houses on both sides of the road. After all the ambushings were ready, Li De commanded the eight hundred Xia army to gradually retreat, and led the Song army to the predetermined ambushing site bit by bit.

"Prince, most of the Song army have come in." The officer reminded Li De.

Li De, who was hiding in the dark, immediately ordered: "Then let's start! After the gunpowder explosion, the troops immediately attacked and wiped out all the Song army before they could react."

"Yes, I understand..."

"Boom, boom, boom..." A tragic explosion sounded, and most of the people who were bombed were overturned, and all the houses on both sides of the street collapsed. The splashed bricks, stones and smoke covered them within a radius of hundreds of meters. After the explosion, the Xia army immediately attacked and killed them from all around before the Song army could react. This time, the Xia army was a dismounted in the field battle. In this city, Xiner's street battle was much more flexible than the cavalry, and the defending troops had great advantages.

The explosion caught the Song army off guard. Now more than 800 Xia army suddenly came out again. The Song army was killed without much resistance. Of course, Li De would not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The 800 Xia army chased and drove the Song army, which had just entered the city, out of the city. This battle was just a small battle in Bianliang City and would not change the situation on the entire Bianliang battlefield. Although the Song army lost more than 2,000 people, this was a drop in the bucket for the Song army and was completely harmless.

After the Song army entered the city, the main force of the Song army led by Zhong Shidao did not attack rashly before arriving. Due to the lack of intelligence, the Song army had no idea about the situation of the Xia army in Bianliang City. As the commander of the Song army, Zhong Shidao had no idea how many soldiers and horses the Xia army had in Bianliang City and how defensive the defense was. However, there was one thing that Zhong Shidao knew, that was that the Song army was swaggeringly transporting food, grass and supplies to Mangdang Mountain.

In the evening, outside the city of Bianliang, inside the large camp of the Song army.

Zhong Shidao summoned the generals and said, "I have received the news that a Xia army has gone south to Mangdang Mountain. It seems that Li De intends to rely on the terrain of Mangdang Mountain to deal with our army..."

"Master General, at the end of today, he sent 3,000 people into Bianliang. He was violently blocked by the Xia army and was forced to withdraw from the city. However, when our army entered the city, the Xia army burned both granaries in the west city, and the fire had not been completely extinguished yet." A general said to Zhong Shidao.
