Chapter 6 Daxia Dragonrider
Blackwater Town
Heishui Town is an important border town of Xixia, and the city wall has fifty cannons. The peaceful development of Xixia in recent years is inseparable from the soldiers who fought bloody battles here.
Li Ming led 3,000 dragonriders at a fast pace, but they arrived at Blackwater City in just a few days. Looking at the blood-stained city walls, he sighed.
"The general will finally meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince"
The lord of Blackwater City, Weiming Linggong, led several generals and soldiers out of the city to greet him.
"General, there is no need to be polite. I heard that the Mongolian cavalry made some changes, and my father ordered me to bring troops to help."
Li Ming dismounted from his horse and helped up the Duke Weiming who was saluting him. After looking at him, he saw that he was tall and mighty, not angry and powerful, but a fierce general.
Lord Weiming was also looking at Li Ming and others, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed. He only brought 3,000 men and horses. Although they looked very elite, they could not hide the gap in numbers.
"Your Highness, the general has already held a banquet in the city, why not go into the city first."
"Okay, let's enter the city first and then talk"
After saying that, he got on his horse and led the dragon cavalry into the city
The disappointed look in Weiming Linggong's eyes naturally did not escape Li Ming's eyes. After thinking about it carefully, he understood what the other party was thinking, but he did not say it out loud. He would just see Zhenzhang under his command in the future.
Li Ming was a little tired after a few days of travel, so he had a good time and refreshed himself.
The second day
Li Ming, who had just woken up, took a shower and came to the City Lord's Mansion
"General Weiming, who is leading the Mongolian troops this time? How many troops and horses are there? How many troops and horses do our troops have?"
"Your Highness, the person leading the Mongolian troops this time is Mu Huali. This man is a brave general under Temujin. He conquered east and west for Temujin, but he rarely suffered defeat."
"There are about 60,000 Mongolian cavalry soldiers and horses. We currently have 20,000 defenders"
After listening, Li Ming recalled the information carefully before remembering the information about Mu Huali.
Muhuali, Zhalaer clan, also known as Muheli, Mohelai, Muhuli, etc., was a heroic general under Genghis Khan Temujin of the Great Mongol Kingdom, a founding hero, and the fifth son of Kongwen Kuwa. Muhuali was named in his early years.
His father gave Temujin as a "slave of Tiji". He was famous for his determination, wisdom, bravery and good fighting skills. He was the most highly regarded for his skills in Boring. Temujin praised him as "like a chariot with a shaft and a body with arms."
." He followed Temujin for forty years and followed him in every battle. He assisted Temujin in unifying all the Mongolian tribes. He had outstanding military exploits and was known as the "Four Heroes" together with Borshu, Borhu and Chi Laowen.
But he is a troublesome person
After understanding the current situation, Li Ming also had some fighting spirit. He had long wanted to see the famous Mongolian cavalry.

Blackwater City
Li Ming stood on the city wall and looked into the distance
A black line surges toward Heishui City like a tide
The earth began to tremble, and thousands of horses galloped, like a huge wave crashing into Blackwater City
"Light the fire!"
With an order, the artillery that had been ready to fire flashed with a red flame, and the shells rushed straight into the Mongolian cavalry under the city. The battlefield was filled with smoke and blood and flesh flew everywhere.
The Mongolian cavalry is indeed a world-famous cavalry, charging as if they are not afraid of death.
After several rounds of shelling, the cannon body began to turn red and hot, but it needed to cool down for a period of time before it could continue to be used.
Li Ming, who was at the top of the city, waved his hand and the archers drew their bows and fired arrows. Thousands of arrows flew together, killing many people and horses.
The Mongolian army also fired back with arrows. Arrows rained down from the sky over the entire battlefield. Both sides suffered casualties. However, because the Xia army was condescending, the casualties were not large.
You came and I fought several times, and after seeing that I didn't get any advantage, a loud horn sounded.
The Mongolian army began to withdraw in an orderly manner from the entire battlefield, leaving only a devastated battlefield and thousands of troops sleeping here.
When Li Ming saw the Mongolian army withdrawing, he did not go out of the city to pursue it. He just let the archers shoot a wave and then retreated.
In the distance, he could vaguely see the Mongolian army setting up camp. Li Ming couldn't help but sigh that the Mongolian cavalry was indeed well-deserved, fearless of death and well-disciplined.
In the next few days, the Mongolian army sent small groups of troops to tentatively attack the city every day, but each time they withdrew after leaving more than a dozen corpses.
On the city wall, Li Ming was thinking about the actions of the Mongolian army.
"Your Highness, the scouts have come to report that the Mongolian army is cutting down trees for some reason"
"Well, keep sending people to keep an eye on them"
Li Ming looked towards the Mongolian military camp
Logging? Is it to make a catapult?
Li Ming instantly understood that the Mongolian siege in the past few days was just to confuse and divert his attention.
Watching the sky gradually darken, the camp began to light a bonfire, and after some thought, I called in Lord Wei Ming.
"Your Highness, you are so valuable that I cannot allow you to take such a risk."
"I have made up my mind. You just need to cooperate with me. Don't worry, nothing will happen to me and my dragon rider."
That night
Li Ming quietly led the dragon knight out of the city, wearing black armor in the dark as the best cover.
In the following days, the Mongolian army's offensive became more and more powerful, and the newly produced catapults began to be put on the battlefield.
It’s a new day
In the early morning, the fog filled the air, and Mu Huali looked at Heishui City with sharp eyes.
"Send an order to the entire army to capture Blackwater City today and massacre it for three days."
"Yes"
The subordinates went down to deliver the order with a fanatical look.
It seemed that a war was about to come, and the sky began to gather dark clouds.
As the war drums beat and a loud horn sounded, the entire Mongolian army stared at this delicacy in Blackwater City like a blood-killing wolf.
The stones thrown by the catapults hit the thick city wall, creating a big crater. The counterattack artillery fire also tilted towards the Mongolian army below the city, and arrows flew on the battlefield.
Gun smoke fills the air, blood and fire fly.
Just when the two sides were fighting fiercely, Li Ming watched the battlefield quietly on a hill in the distance. As time passed and the defenders of Blackwater City were exhausted, Li Ming instantly locked onto a chariot behind the battlefield.<
/p>
"Everyone, let the reputation of the Great Xia Dragon Rider start to shock the world today. Charge with me."
After giving the order, the three thousand dragon knights clenched their swords and looked at Li Ming who was leading the charge with feverish eyes.
Three thousand dragon cavalry broke into the battlefield. Although the number was small, Mu Huali noticed the sudden appearance of the enemy and hurriedly sent an order to intercept it. At this moment, the gates of Heishui City opened wide, and Weiming Linggong led 10,000 dragon riders.
The five iron cavalry left the city.
Being surrounded by enemies from both sides, Mu Huali did not panic, and continued to direct 10,000 cavalry to intercept Li Ming, while the remaining 40,000 horses continued to attack the frontal battlefield.

Looking at the Mongolian army who reacted in a short time, Li Ming couldn't help but sigh at the toughness of the Mongolian cavalry.
"The Great Xia Dragon Riders, I am invincible"
While shouting, he rushed into the enemy's formation, a large Xia dragon bird flew up and down, and the sword energy spread across both men and horses.
Like an arrow, Li Ming led three thousand dragon riders to form an arrow and thrust it towards the center of the Mongolian army.
The Mongolian cavalry was unable to move even after a round of charge. The heavy armor blocked the attack and arrows shot at it were bounced away. The men and horses were cut into pieces with a single blow.
"How is that possible!"
Mu Huali looked at the men and horses charging towards him in shock. The elite Mongolian cavalry collapsed at the first blow. Seeing that the opponent was about to break through the surrounding ten thousand cavalry, he hurriedly commanded again to separate the ten thousand cavalry on the frontal battlefield.
Iron cavalry
And this division of troops also made Duke Weiming breathe a sigh of relief.
The pressure of dividing the troops also came to Longqi's side
The Great Xia Dragon Bird in Li Ming's hand didn't pause for a moment, and it was cut in half when it hit a person or a horse.
The pace of the Daxia Dragon Cavalry's charge did not stop because of the extra men and horses. They charged all the way and crushed them, looking feverishly at the figure at the front who was crisscrossing the enemy formation.
Seeing that he was about to break through to the Chinese army, Mu Huali hurriedly summoned the frontline troops to turn around and suppress them, leaving only 10,000 cavalry on the main battlefield.
Unfortunately, it took time for the Mongolian army to turn around. Just before the order was given to the front line, Li Ming had already penetrated the 20,000 encircled and suppressed cavalry.
He broke into the Chinese army and came to Muhuali's chariot. He jumped up high and slashed at Muhuali with his sword
Mu Huali hurriedly raised the scimitar in his hand, trying to block the blow. Suddenly, his hand was light, and the scimitar in his hand broke into two sections, and the man also became two halves.
As Li Ming chopped down the flag again, the flag of the Chinese army fell, and with no one to command, the Mongolian army began to collapse.
Li Ming led the troops to continue the charge, crushing the still resisting Mongolian army
When they returned to the city, everyone felt as if they had been soaked in blood. Their armor and horses were covered with flesh, flesh and internal organs, and they were full of evil spirits, like evil ghosts returning from hell
