Under the night, the Lingzhou River is dark on both sides. Occasionally, burning fireballs cross the sky, falling into the empty wilderness and shattering into sparks. After burning for a while, they return to peace.

This was the Xixia Paoxi Army fired incendiary bombs with their whirlwind cannons on the east bank of Lingzhou River to harass the Song army's camp.

The so-called Poxi Army actually has only more than 200 people. It is a "camel artillery", a "cannon", not a "cannon". This is an army that may be unique in the world. It cleverly combines small cannons and camels. Although the small cannons that can be transported by camels are not powerful enough, they can only throw some fist-sized stones and incendiary bombs, and they are not too far away. However, their mobility is very good and can be used on field battlefields.

However, because these guns are too small and have too close range, they cannot hit the brightly lit Song army camp on the west bank of Lingzhou River. The incendiary bombs mixed with gunpowder and grease only fall into the wheat fields east of the Song army camp, and at most they can only burn some winter wheat that can be harvested immediately.

This level of harassment will not be of any use to the group of elite soldiers of the Song Dynasty who followed Zhao Kai. At most, it can only strengthen the courage of the Xixia people.

It's just after Yin hour, and it's still dark. Zhao Kai had already woken up and was dressed neatly. After washing up, he began to review the combat strategy formulated by the Imperial Camp Army Office last night while having breakfast. The Imperial Camp Army Office is almost the prototype of a general, composed of some young officers and the best among the "Hanlin Warriors". When Zhao Kai and the generals held military discussions, these young officers and "Hanlin Warriors" would record on the side. Then they would formulate the strategy based on the results of the military discussions. Generals who led troops, Yue Fei, Dong Jingang, and Li Fuchen would participate in the formulation of the strategy. Zhao Kai was the last one to make a decision!

After reading the strategy, he nodded and said to the two leaders of the military department, Wu Lin and Lu Xiucai: "It's very good... use seals!"

Wu Lin and Lu Xiucai agreed and would take a seal engraved with the word "Da Song Tian" from Guo Tiannu and stamp it at the end of the strategy text. In addition to this "Da Song Tian" seal, the strategy text will also be stamped with the "Imperial Camp Joining the Army" seal, and there will also be the official seal of the generals leading the army who participated in the strategy formulation... After Lingzhou was drawn, these generals who stamped the stamp on the strategy will be remembered for their merits!

As for defeating... that's impossible!

Seeing that Guo Tiannu had already collected the "Great Song Tian" seal that had just been used, Zhao Kai stood up to patrol the camp - this was his last training camp before the war began, and it was also a pre-war mobilization!

The official patrols the camp personally and announces reward plans in person... Is there any better way to motivate you?

Zhao Kai and Guo Tiannu left the adobe house together. A team of Yulin cavalry and several female troupes on duty had been waiting outside. They set up lanterns for patrolling the night of the imperial camp (with an imperial mark) and headed to the nearest camp of the first general of the Tiance Imperial Tent Army.

The camp of more than 25,000 people under Zhao Kai's army was laid out with a village on the west bank of Lingzhou River as the core. Because he was worried about being flooded, the camp of more than 20,000 people was squeezed into a group, and a circular wall of soil with straw bags was filled with straw bags on the outside.

In the wall of the earthen bunker, several areas were separated by vehicles and assigned to Yulin, imperial tent, selection of the front, artillery and other troops.

The order of patrol patrols was also prepared in advance - Zhao Kai would patrol the camp according to the order in which each department sets up the camp.

The first general of the Front-Selecting Army will be the first to drive out of the camp - they will bring a 25-jin mortar cannon and three chariots. Under the leadership of Yue Fei, Zhang Xian (the first general) and Xu Qing (the chief general in charge of commanding the mortar cannon), they will climb the Yellow River embankment and launch an attack on the hamlet on the embankment.

This is the main attack mission!

When Zhao Kai arrived, all the officers and soldiers of the general had already used an extremely sumptuous breakfast - corned beef and mutton burrito. Everyone also drank a little soju (not white wine). This was the "last meal"! Of course, it had to be more sumptuous!

After the meal, each person received three days of food. Three days later, the big guy either became a kin or had a celebration banquet in Lingzhou City!

After breakfast and after receiving the rations, more than 2,000 soldiers finished their clothes, lined up their teams, and waited for Zhao Kai to come to inspect and give a lecture.

Yue Fei, Zhang Xian and the others have long mentioned the standard of rewards this time!

In addition to normal promotions, there will be additional rewards... The Xixia treasury in Lingzhou City, the nobles' property, and half of the land outside the city are all meritorious soldiers!

This is not just killing the enemy? This is simply going to make a fortune!

I won’t talk about those rich people, how many noble people can there be in Xixia? But the fertile soil outside Lingzhou City is so greedy... Almost all of these soldiers in the palace have begged for their wives, most of them have sons, and some have second children!

Their property cannot be divided into two military families. If they can earn 100 acres of permanent land in Lingzhou this time, then the second child will have a future, at least they can be a utility student - this will be considered to have entered the system!

For the future of the second child, these soldiers were all ready to go, and their morale was so high that they were almost rising!

"The official's driver is here!"

With a shout, more than 2,000 soldiers with high morale immediately shouted: "Long live my emperor! Long live! Long live!"

Zhao Kai was naturally very satisfied with the shouting that shook his ears. So, accompanied by Yue Fei, Zhang Xian and Xu Qing, he arrived in front of more than 2,000 soldiers who had already arranged the team and started to speak.

"Three days!" Zhao Kai shouted, "In three days, we will enter Lingzhou together... I will drink and celebrate the celebration wine with you in Lingzhou City... Let's drink together, eat meat, and divide the fields!"

"Drink! Eat meat! Divide the fields..."

The soldiers shouted wildly!

Zhao Kai was also infected by the atmosphere and shouted loudly: "Eat him N, drink him N, divide him N... Let's go!"

The soldiers of the palace responded loudly: "Eat him N, drink him N, divide him N... and set off!"

Zhao Kaize turned his head and nodded to Yue Fei.

Yue Fei also shouted: "Follow me, set off, kill all the Western thieves... and then eat him N, drink him N, and divide him N!"

"Kill all the thieves! Eat him N, drink him N, and divide him N!"

"Kill, kill, kill... Kill him N, eat him N, drink him N, divide him N!"

Amid this cheers, more than 2,000 soldiers lined up to set off, left the camp, and disappeared into the vast dark night!

Zhao Kai looked at the powerful soldiers leaving and said to himself: "It seems that it will take less than three days, and you will be able to enter Lingzhou City in two days!" He turned around and asked Guo Tiannu, "Tiannu, where are you going now?"

"Go to the first general of the imperial tent personally collected by Dong Jingang!" Guo Tiannu said, "They will attack the Diba City from the seventh-level canal!"

"Okay!" Zhao Kai smiled, "Let's go and see how King Kong's soldiers are?"

Guo Tiannu smiled and said, "It must be no worse than the selection army!"

......

Zhao Kai is here!

Wei Ming Cha Ge, Wei Ming Renzhong and Li Liangfu, and all the Xixia soldiers and generals who climbed the Lingzhou city wall or dike wall knew that Zhao Kai had arrived!

They saw the Song army on the west bank of Lingzhou River from afar, rushing out of the camp with torches, and heard the slogans that they were about to yell the sky... If they didn't understand what was going on, they would be so stupid that they would be helpless!

"What are they shouting?" Although Brother Wei Mingcha could understand Chinese, the sound coming from afar was too noisy, so he couldn't quite understand.

"Big, king..." Cao Mian, the official of Xiping Prefecture in Xixia, was a Han native. He had already understood, so he replied tremblingly, "They are shouting: I want to kill us, drink our blood, eat our meat, and finally divide our property and women..."

"Eat...eat human flesh? Do we have to divide our property and women?" Wei Mingcha Ge suddenly felt a creepy feeling. Zhao Kai was too savage, right? He actually wanted to eat human flesh!

And after eating, you have to separate the property from the woman... You Zhao Kai are even more ferocious than monsters! Monsters only eat people, not divide the property.

He hurriedly shouted loudly: "Come here, go and give Li Liangfu the order, and ask him to dig the Yellow River Dam immediately! Immediately..."

"King," Wei Mingrenzhong, who was beside him, whispered, "The Song army only has more than 20,000 people..."

Brother Wei Mingcha glared at him, "What do you know? Those are 20,000 people-eating monsters! You have to pay for it after you finish eating!"

Not only cannibalism, but also has to share property! Why did the officials in the Song Dynasty become so vicious? Isn’t this too unreasonable?

He paused and shouted again, "Where is Master Darba?"

"I'm here..." A monk... tall and thin, a little older, and whose skin was sunburned red and black, responded loudly.

"Master, please go to the dike and castle immediately!" Wei Mingcha Ge said, "The demons are about to attack, and they are also very powerful thunder magic... The master's Vajra Demon Suppression Curse is still effective, right?"

"Of course it works!" The monk clasped his hands together, with a solemn appearance on his face, "As long as the thunder technique is a real demon, I will definitely be able to break it!"

The old monk's meaning is very clear - as long as it is a magic attack, he will not be afraid!

He has been practicing Buddhism since he was a child and has practiced Buddhism for more than 50 years. His magic power is so great. How powerful can a little demon girl in the Central Plains have? She is definitely not his opponent.

Of course, if the enemy uses physical and chemical attacks, then he has no choice... What's the point of chanting a spell at a cannon and a bomb?

However, if this old monk was knocked to death by the cannon, it can prove that Zhao Kai did not use magic... so the master would not sacrifice in vain.

"That's good!" Wei Mingcha brother waved his hand, "Renzhong, send the master and his disciples to the Diba City!"

"Get orders!" Wei Mingrenzhong gave a Buddhist ritual to the monk, then made a gesture of Suke, and then personally received it from the front, taking a group of monks to deal with the "hot pot cannon" and "copper pot bombs"...
