Chapter 632 Overall strategy
Long Yuan.

Liu Yuanzhen had been guarding the dangerous road for six days, and the blisters on the corners of his mouth had started to rot.

There were blood-stained corpses all over the mountains and plains.

He knew that he had to withdraw to Fengxiang Mansion, if he didn't withdraw, even if he was not defeated, the whole army would be wiped out.

But there is no pass near Fengxiang Mansion, I'm afraid it can't stop Alan Da'er from sending some troops into the pass to plunder and search for food and grass.

The advantage of keeping the enemy out of the door is gone, and he will be the first sinner in this battle.

Feeling resentful in his heart, Liu Yuanzhen vomited a mouthful of blood with a sweet mouth...

Suddenly, the sound of Ming Jin sounded.

Liu Yuanzhen was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were torn apart, he thought that his soldiers and horses had collapsed, so he retreated without waiting for his order.

However, upon closer inspection, the sound of the ringing gold came from the front of the Mongolian army.

Looking around, I saw that Alanda'er's banner was heading west, towards the Jieting pass.

"The Mongolian army has withdrawn! The Mongolian army has withdrawn!"

The Han army shouted.

But no cheers.

They knew that they didn't win, they just didn't stop Alan Da'er, letting him go wherever he wanted.

Liu Yuanzhen looked around at his defeated soldiers on the battlefield, and finally sat powerlessly on the ground full of corpses, wanting to cry.

In order to keep Fengxiang Mansion, he mobilized the defenders at Jieting Pass.

Unexpectedly, Alan Da'er went to support Hunduhai, including Li Xia's surprise soldiers.

In the decisive battle in Longxi, Hunduhai already had the upper hand.

"Wang Liangchen, I tried my best, but I can't stop..." Liu Yuanzhen murmured.

~~
Yangping Pass.

Li Xia looked at the map, marked it, and looked at Gao Nianfeng in surprise.

"Is it bad to renege on the alliance? You have to look at the map first to find out that it was Hun Duhai who first reneged on the alliance, or in other words, he only planned to use me from the beginning."

Gao Nianfeng originally came to ask cautiously, but now he couldn't help being very puzzled, and said: "Marshal, I don't understand..."

"Hunduhai has already advanced to Lintao, but Liu Taiping said that Liu Heima is at Jieting Pass. Is this possible?"

Gao Nianfeng scratched his head.

Li Xia said: "Forgot? I told Hunduhai that he was going to ambush Liu Heima, so he had to seize the Jieting pass, so he dared to advance to Lintao. But why is it so simple? It means that Liu Heima has divided his troops, what to do with them?" ?”

"Master Du?"

"That's right, Liu Hei's horsemen are divided into two groups, one is along the Qianhe River and the other is blocking the Longshan Road. The other is going up the Weihe River to reach the Tianshui, and going westward, it can block the Qishan Road. They are ambushing me."

At this point, Li Xia made another assertion.

"Liu Heima must not be in Jieting, he must have crossed Tianshui to Qishan."

Looking at the map, Gao Nianfeng understood, and asked: "Liu Taiping knew, but he didn't tell the commander in chief. Instead, he lied to the commander in chief that Liu Heima was in the street pavilion?"

"Yeah." Li Xia responded casually.

Both he and Hun Duhai are just generals, they have neither signed a letter of credence nor are they qualified to cooperate, but it is just that Hun Duhai thinks that their interests coincide.

According to Hun Duhai's thinking, as long as Li Xia can get out of Qishan Road, even if he can't attack Wang Liangchen, at least he can restrain Liu Heima.To give, only a verbal promise.

The art of war is deceitful, who really has integrity?

The knife counts.

Li Yong said countless times about seeking skins from tigers and seeking skins from tigers.

When listening to it, people feel that they know this truth, but in fact, before anyone can react, the tiger's bloody mouth has already opened, and it is about to swallow the weak beast in one gulp.

As soon as this thought flashed by, Li Xia asked, "Have the things been delivered?"

"Yes, it came with the food and grass from County Magistrate Lu."

"Let's go and have a look."

He got up, put away the map first, and was still thinking about it in his mind.

"Even if Hunduhai won, he would still be very angry with me...E Xiute..."

~~
Lintao battlefield.

In a battle of tens of thousands of main forces, the key to victory is not to finish killing the opponent.

It can't be killed.

The battlefield is too large, and even from the beginning to the end of the decisive battle, some soldiers failed to see the enemy.

The key to victory or defeat is that when one party's soldiers feel that they have lost, they are defeated in their hearts.

When the cannon stone smashes people into mud, the machete cuts people's limbs, and the arrow takes people's lives...the blood is all over the ground, and all the cruel scenes are designed to bring fear to the other party.

See which side is overcome by fear first.

The greater the casualties, the greater the fear.

Therefore, both sides in the decisive battle at this time are doing their best to cause casualties to each other.

No one sang the battle song anymore, they were all roaring crazily.

Blood was splashed on the stone tablet in the center of the battlefield.

Another corpse fell in front of it, a Mongol.

The wounded steed trampled mercilessly over his corpse, neighing away.Immediately, another Han soldier also fell down.

He was unable to get up, and was trampled on by others. Before he died, he saw the stone tablet.

He was illiterate, but he knew that this was the stele of Goshuhan's achievements.

I remembered, the song my grandfather sang when I was young...the song that has been sung in Lintao.

"The Seven Stars of the Big Dipper are high, and Ge Shuye is carrying a knife. So far, he has seen the herding horses, but he dare not pass Lintao..."

The Wang family allowed them to sing.

The descendants of the Wang family have always claimed to be Ge Shuhan in this Longxi land.

The wounded Han soldier finally looked back at Gong Chang behind him.

Then Meng Zu, who was riding the horse, rushed up, and the horse's hoof crushed his heart.

"Kill!"

"..."

In the distance, Alanda'er's flag appeared in the east, and the Mongolian elite knights were greatly boosted.

Afterwards, Liu Heima led the troops to the south and came...

Wang Liangchen glanced back to the south, a trace of doubt floated in his heart.

"Didn't Song Jun come to sneak attack?"

But now is not the time to think about that.

It is a good thing that Liu Heima came to support after all.

He drew out his knife and shouted: "Boys! Your family is right behind you, follow me to defeat the enemy!"

"Kill!"

The decisive battle lasted from early morning to evening.

When Liu Heima's reinforcements made up for it, Wang Liangchen suddenly led the cavalry around to the flank of Huntuhai, and rushed up.

Like a ferocious beast viciously biting the back of another ferocious beast...

~~
Li Xia was walking with Lu Xiufu on Qishan Road, watching the terrain.

"Dare to ask, who does Li Jieshuai think will win?" Lu Xiufu cupped his hands and asked.

"The two tigers are fighting each other, and their strengths are equal. I actually can't guess for sure." Li Xia said, "I can only say that the Guanlong Army is more strategic, occupies a favorable location, and has a better chance of winning."

He doesn't really care about that.

Lu Xiufu pointed to the mountain road again, and asked, "Can Li Jieshuai tell me why you did this?"

After he finished speaking, he added another sentence.

"I'm really curious."

Li Xia looked directly into Lu Xiufu's eyes and thought about it.

He knew that if he talked too much, Lu Xiufu would be aware of his ambition.

However, the deployment was properly arranged, and it was impossible to hide from such a smart person.

On the contrary, by speaking directly, it can appear more loyal to the Song court.

"Okay." Li Xia said.

Lu Xiufu nodded attentively, and said, "Don't worry, Li Jieshuai, he will never let anyone get any information from me."

"I'm not worried."

Li Xia waved his hand, walked along the path to the top of the mountain, talking casually about his arrangement.

"I did this to take advantage of the war between the two sides to regain Guanzhong."

"Recapturing Guanzhong? I'm afraid it will be difficult."

"What do you find difficult?"

Lu Xiufu said: "Our army does not have the strength to fight in the field."

Li Xia said: "That's right, all problems, in the final analysis, are that we don't have the strength to fight in the field. And no matter how powerful the strategy and skills are, it is impossible to solve this problem within three to five years. This is a deadlock."

Lu Xiufu is very smart.

He turned his head to look at the baggage in the distance, thought, and smiled.

"Then... let's bypass this knot?"

~~
Long Yuan.

Liu Yuanzhen was biting his nails.

His eye sockets were deeply sunken, his heart was extremely nervous, he didn't know how far the decisive battle in Lintao would go.

He wanted to go to help, but Alan Da'er was blocked at the Jieting pass, and his defeated soldiers were unable to break through.

I can't think of a way to break out... I have to break out...

"I have to find a way...Longxi can't lose it...Damn it..."

In the distance, there are horses running towards the southeast.

Liu Yuanzhen looked up, feeling more and more uneasy.

"Is it the result of the battlefield? Is it... No, no, it came from the direction of Guanzhong..."

"Report! Report!"

Liu Yuanzhen bit his hand hard, already feeling more and more uneasy.

When he got up, his eyes went dark, and there was a buzzing in his ears.

In sight, the messenger was speaking, and it took him a while to hear clearly.

"Urgent report from Jingzhao Mansion! Song Junbing came out of Ziwu Road..."

Something hit his head, and Liu Yuanzhen almost fainted.

guessed wrong!
Li Xia guessed wrong.

Li Xia didn't send troops out of Qishan at all, but only told Hundu Hailai to ambush in Longyuan, restraining Liu's troops, but they sent out to Meridian Road...

How would he attack Chang'an City?

He has a way...but he can't think of it...

Liu Yuanzhen shook his body, a mouthful of blood spurted from his throat.

"Da Lang! Da Lang!"

"Hurry up! Report to father... emergency aid to Guanzhong... Jingzhao..."

"Da Lang, Da Lang, Lord Lian said that only a small group of cavalry from the Song Army was found, and the commander should focus on the battle in Longxi. It's okay to return to help after defeating Hunduhai..."

"no no!"

Liu Yuanzhen was even more anxious.

"Mr. Lian underestimated Li Xia, he underestimated Li Xia...don't underestimate Li Xia..."

~~
On Qishan Road.

Lu Xiufu had heard Li Xia finish his general plan, and after that, he became excited.

"Understood, we are not conducive to field warfare, so we will not fight in the field! Attract enemy soldiers to fight in the dangerous mountains, irritate them, confuse them, lead them to Qishan Road, and then fight mountain warfare, which Li Jieshuai is best at. Ambush?!"

Li Xia nodded and said, "Now, do you know why I killed Liu Taiping?"

"To annoy Hunduhai!" Lu Xiufu understood immediately after thinking about it.

He saluted and said: "Even if Hunduhai wins, Jieshuai hopes that he can divide his troops to attack Hanzhong, so that he can ambush him here. Xiufu admires the painstaking efforts to protect the people in Guanzhong."

"But Hai Ruosheng, the capital of Hundu, will at most send a partial division to attack Hanzhong, and the main force will still go to slaughter Guanzhong. Even if I follow his wishes and help him, he will still kill Guanzhong because he doesn't know how to manage it. , It is also impossible to believe that we can resist Kublai Khan in Guanzhong, and we must slaughter until no one is left..."

Li Xia knew that relying on an alliance with someone like Hun Duhai who might draw his sword at any time, he was destined to be unable to win Guanzhong.

The truth that has been recalled countless times in my mind is still the same, that fighting for the world depends on strength.

Where is Shu Shuai's strength?
——Eight thousand elite infantry who are good at mountain warfare have been drawn out.

These elite infantry are setting up an ambush on Qishan Road at this time.

"Actually, even if Jieshuai doesn't kill Liu Taiping." Lu Xiufu said, "As long as our strength is damaged, Hunduhai may loot Hanzhong."

"Yeah, two tigers fought, and the calf rushed up and was injured and fell to the ground. Can we still expect the victorious tiger not to come and bite?" Li Xia said, "So we can't be injured, and we can't give our lives to the tiger. We can only rely on killing Liu Taiping came to anger Hunduhai."

He admired Lu Xiufu more and more.

"Hunduhai must be defeated." Lu Xiufu looked worried.

He thinks that Li Xia has gone too far, and privately negotiated an alliance with Hu Lu, which helped the other party a little... But this is also a way out of nowhere.

"We can't control this matter." Li Xia said, "I was making a fuss, and I wanted to consume more strength of the Guanlong Army, so I helped Hun Duhai a little, and I was afraid that he would really win... This fire is extremely difficult to grasp. If you are not careful, you will burn everything."

Lu Xiufu nodded and sighed: "In that case, I hope that the Guan Long Army will win."

Li Xia let out a "hmm".

This was his first worry. He was afraid that if Hunduhai would win, he would wipe out his population in Guanzhong.

As for the second worry, what would happen if the Guan Long army won?
All of Li Xia's strategies were aimed at attracting the Guanlong army to attack Hanzhong.

He has sent the signal.

"Li Xia has the ambition to conquer the world, Li Xia is bound to take Guanzhong, and Li Xia has already sent troops out of Ziwu Road, then the Song army on Qishan Road must be empty soldiers, and Hanzhong must be empty... To break the siege of Guanzhong, the best way It was Wei Wei who rescued Zhao and marched into Hanzhong."

——The other party probably thinks so.

This is the information gap, and it is the strategy Li Xia is best at using.

Of course he couldn't predict the outcome of the decisive battle, nor could he predict what the Liu family would guess.

For him, it doesn't matter.

There is no need to guess what the Liu family thinks.

When Liu Yuanzhen was thinking hard, he didn't think about it at all.

Because, the important thing is to let the Liu family follow his train of thought.

Everything is to attract the Guanlong Army to attack Hanzhong.

Then the decisive battle was fought on Qishan Road.

This is the same as the strategy of taking Guanzhong from Hunduhai, that is, destroy the main force of the enemy first.

But, no way.

Li Xia gave a rare sigh, and said, "The Guan Long army won, but they may not come... So I said, the strategy this time is very simple, there is not much that can be changed, and the possibility of success is not high."

Lu Xiufu frowned and pondered, and murmured: "Li Jieshuai forgives the crime, but I think they probably won't enter Hanzhong. This plan... has no reason for them to come."

Li Xia didn't answer.

The plan he told Lu Xiufu was incomplete, and a very crucial part was hidden.

Of course, even if it counts, he himself is not fully sure...

In the end, I could only murmur a sentence.

"Who wins? Will he come if he wins?"
