How did a street urchin from the film crew end up in a Northern Song Dynasty drama called "The

At this moment, before the formal commencement of war, Commander Jin had ample troops and ammunition. After careful consideration, he decided to temporarily utilize their current location to weaken the Western Xia forces. After all, General Di's 20-strong army was nearby, providing a solid backup. With this powerful force present, Western Xia would certainly not dare to be careless and would definitely dispatch some elite troops to counter them. Only in this way could Commander Jin's strategic plan be realized.

Before the elite forces of the Western Xia were completely exhausted, it was clearly not the best time to launch a long-range attack. Commander Jin knew that only by patiently waiting and seizing the right opportunity could he defeat the enemy in one fell swoop and achieve final victory.

After finalizing the plan, Jin Shuai returned to the camp and allowed the troops to rest for two days before commencing operations.

As dawn broke, the border passes of the Western Xia were shrouded in tranquility. Suddenly, a rapid and muffled drumbeat shattered the peace, its deafening sound echoing throughout the entire pass.

Upon hearing the drumbeats, the Western Xia soldiers did not rush up the city walls as usual, but instead proceeded slowly and unhurriedly. Some soldiers muttered curses and grumbled, "The Song army is endless! They come to cause trouble every few days." They seemed to have become accustomed to this situation, and began their pre-battle preparations in a sluggish manner.

At this moment, the general defending the city was too lazy to even leave his tent, merely ordering his deputy to go and check. This general knew perfectly well that the Song army's harassment had been going on for months, each time more bark than bite, posing no real threat. Therefore, he remained in his tent, leisurely resting.

However, not far from the pass, the Jin army commander-in-chief was leading his large army in a state of high alert. He rode a tall and majestic warhorse, his sharp eyes fixed on the movements at the pass. When he saw the Western Xia soldiers so lax, a sly smile crept onto his lips.

Jin Shuai gripped the hilt of his sword tightly with his right hand, then slowly drew it from its sheath. With a flash of cold light, he swung his arm sharply, slashing down at the pass. In an instant, the Western Xia soldiers on the city wall, still bewildered as to what was happening, suddenly saw countless black objects raining down from behind the Jin army.

Faced with this sudden attack, the Western Xia soldiers initially did not panic. After all, they were experienced and immediately recognized that the flying objects were no ordinary arrows. However, as the black objects drew closer, they finally saw their true nature—they were huge catapults!

Their guess was correct; it was indeed not an ordinary bow and arrow. Just as everyone was astonished, a stone-like object whizzed past their heads at an incredible speed. Upon closer inspection, a wisp of smoke trailed behind the stone, like a long, thin tail.

Just as they were about to see what was going on, a series of deafening roars suddenly rang out: "Boom boom boom..." The enormous sound was like a thunderbolt, instantly plunging many soldiers into a state of bewilderment and astonishment. Before they could recover, an unbelievable scene unfolded before their eyes—those seemingly ordinary "stones" exploded one after another, bursting forth with powerful impact and scorching flames.

In an instant, smoke and dust filled the pass. The soldiers were stunned and bewildered by the sudden explosion. Their eyes widened in terror as they looked around, their hearts filled with doubt and fear: "How is this possible? These stones can explode!" However, reality gave them no time to dwell on it, for a series of piercing screams echoed through the sky.
