Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 1009 The curtain of the three-party competition
The most terrible thing is that it was self-defeating to let the Song army arrive at Xiping Mansion. Once the general situation is over, Li Renxiao no longer has any hesitation. Turning into a regular soldier, Wang Cunli also rushed to Shengwei City immediately to prepare for the battle.

Of course, he did not forget the most important thing, and in a very humble tone, he presented himself as a minister to Da Jin and asked the Jin army to go south for support.

"I still need to make peace with Nanchao. I think hot Gongji is the most suitable." Ren Dejing said leisurely.

Li Renxiao agrees very much, even though the Song army's offensive is fierce, he is not without strength, and what needs to be done to make peace still needs to be done.

In the end, Gan Dao Chong said worriedly, "Your Majesty, the general was terrified by King Pu's troubles, so Xi Yuli must be calmed down!"

At this time, Wang Xiu had already left Salmonella Island and was heading leisurely all the way to Kaifeng, and the battle report from the northwest was sent naturally.

"Sir, the situation is very good, I still urge Taiwei Qu to speed up his troops." Zong Liang's mood improved a lot, and seeing the situation in Guantang, he couldn't help thinking about it.

"Hey, it's not that easy. Xingqing, oh, Xingzhou is the old den of the party members. It is backed by Helan Mountain and bordered by a big river in the east. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack!" Wang Xiu shook her head and said, not advocating a quick attack on the strong city.

"I will take three routes simultaneously. The west route cuts off their left and right flanks, the middle route reaches the hinterland, the east route annihilates the main force of the left flank, and then goes north to save Weicheng. The big thing can be decided, and we must not hesitate." Zong Liang said extremely excitedly, as if victory means victory in sight.

But Wang Xiu didn't take it seriously, and said lightly: "The captives are in the Tiande army, but there are [-] to [-] soldiers and horses!"

What Zongliang said made Zongliang speechless. The Jin army stationed heavy troops in Tiande, Heqing, and Jinsu military prefectures. They could attack the Song army directly from Fuzhou Road, or they could take advantage of the Song army's fierce battle in Shengwei City to draw their salaries from the bottom of the pot. The initiative in war is in the hands of others.

Although Wang Xiu's so-called 7 to [-] people is not very accurate, but it is almost the same. At least according to the estimate of the West Army Division, the Jin Army's horse army reached [-]. This is not a joke. With the strength of the opponent, Once involved in the war, it is tantamount to a real test for the Song army.

"Wu Shu and Zhang Qiyuan are very scheming. We fight back and forth to see that we have a chance to win, but in fact the initiative is still in their hands." Wang Xiu sighed softly. Sometimes, the situation of war does not depend on personal will. The battlefield has been planned.

Qu Duan's stay was obviously consistent with him. In order to prevent the possible intervention of the Jin army, the entire east army was used as a barrier to ensure a breakthrough in the middle.

Zong Liang was very unwilling, and said in a deep voice: "Even if the captives are rampant, as long as our army takes down Shengwei City, they will have nothing to do."

"The key is that when you take it down, people are going to make a move." Wang Xiu glanced at Zongliang. He was very worried about the intervention of the Jin army. Now is the critical moment for the destruction of Xia. It's hard to calculate, even if he and Qu Duan are fully prepared, they don't know what will happen to others.

"Alright, I believe that Qu Zhengfu knows well that the left side still has considerable strength, and the key is to keep the law and reason. What we have to do is to delay time and create opportunities for them."

Zong Liang was unwilling, but he had to admit that Wang Xiu was right. To delay the possible attack of the Jin army, he could only increase his troops to the northwest or go north. There was no other way.The Jurchens can accept the failure of the party members, but they cannot accept the party's destruction of the country. This is a bottom line issue, and it cannot be settled with gold, silver or land.

"I want to give Qu Duan a bottom line. Lingzhou must be won. Only by winning Lingzhou can the outcome of the battle be completely settled and the captives will be wary."

Wang Xiu is not interfering in the military affairs ahead, let alone making rash remarks, he is judging based on military theory.Today, Shaoxing actually controls Liangzhou, basically cutting off the east aid roads in Ganzhou, Shazhou and other places. The Song army defeated the main force of the left wing and occupied the five eastern states. The party members were struggling inside.

Xiping Mansion should be the prominent strategic position of Lingzhou, and it has become the most important support point for the party members to defend the south inwardly. Once it is breached, the importance of Shengwei City will decline.The main force of the Song army can cross the sea buckthorn from Yanzhou to Jingzhou, and use Xiping Mansion as an offensive base to launch an attack on Xingqing without worrying about being attacked by the Jin army.

"Immediately draw up a letter from Guantang, calling on the capital of the Northern Servant Army, asking the four battalions to prepare for war. The higher the profile, the better, so that all newspapers, big and small, will spread the word."

Zong Liang curled his lips, that was bluffing, putting the greatest pressure on Hebei and Dongdong, and making the captives afraid to make any big moves.

However, Xiao Heda surrendered, Xie Qian mobilized the army to advance westward, and dispatched Wang Zeren to lead the 63 brigades and towns, with the cooperation of eight thousand township troops, to launch a full-scale attack on Dijinze.

The Song army marched northward from Xiazhou, captured Anqingze in one fell swoop, and defeated the resistance of the remnants of the Xia army. Wang Zeren was also a brave general. He followed Xia army northward and drove directly to Huangyangping. .

In the meantime, several small-scale encounters occurred, and he defeated them one by one. The strategic space of the remnants of the Xia army was constantly compressed, and they could only retreat step by step to Dijinze.

It has to be said that Dijinze is very unique. At that time, Li Jiqian was panicked like a bereaved dog. He had to abandon his family and lead his elite to escape into this oasis.After recuperating and recuperating, he regrouped and went out to capture Lingzhou, gradually achieving his great cause.

Winning Dijinze not only has important military value, but also has considerable political significance. It can not only deter the Jurchen Heqing army and Tiande army, but also end the myth of the party members and completely stabilize the situation in Eastern Xia.

Otherwise, Di Jinze was in Xia Jun's hands, and it would be an uncomfortable edge to the entire Song Army's east line of defense.

However, Qu Duan did not ask Xie Qian to launch a large-scale offensive. On the contrary, he announced that he would call back some of the horse troops that made a surprise attack, and dispatched [-] township troops from the East Road to strengthen the offensive against Xiping Mansion.

With the defense of the Sixth Battalion of the Western Guards, the Tianwu Army was liberated and stationed directly outside the Tiemen Pass to deter Xi Yulili.

The sky did not go his way, and there were several large-scale land cows in northern Xia. Due to wars and disputes, a large number of young and middle-aged people collected signatures, and grain production in Dingzhou, Huaizhou and other fertile places decreased. There was a lot of famine, and many people gathered to rebel. In the government, there were already signs of riots breaking out, leaving Li Renxiao in a state of distress. The Song army was still raging, and internal disturbances were about to erupt. No one could live overnight.

This time, the iron gate is a bit strangely quiet, the city is heavily guarded, Xi Yuli Li Xingyuan is surrounded by sharp-armored officials, and my brother is full of murderous looks.

Xi Yuli sat upright with a dark face, another general, Hao Zheng, had an even more ugly face, and Wei Liluo also sat on the side, his face was so calm, but his eyes were very disaffected and full of gloom.
