Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 974

Just when Xia Junchen was arguing and Li Renxiao was hesitant, it was suddenly reported that the Song army occupying Liangzhou launched a large-scale offensive against Suzhou. The news, at least for nearly a month, and now I don't know what the situation is.

It was a major blow to Li Renxiao. Not long after the Song army occupied Liangzhou, they formed a powerful horse army. This did not surprise him, because the Song army had too few horse troops. Even though there were many, there were quite a few cavalry soldiers to choose from. As long as they got horses, these people would be the real cavalry soldiers.

What surprised him was that the Song Army was capable of attacking the Gansu Army Division, which was a bad sign!Xiliang war vests all over the world, the Song army advanced rapidly, Xia Jun did not expect that the entire Xiliang was completely captured, and most of the horse resources were lost.

what does this mean?As long as the Song army is given enough time, they can use their horses to form a horse army of tens of thousands.Xingqing was really in danger.

Among other things, the [-]-plus cavalry alone could pose a great threat to Hexi, and he could not count on reinforcements.

Before the wave of surprise had passed, another wave came. The fifth battalion of the Song Army rushed to Shendui Station, and the Song Army horse army with three thousand riders suddenly appeared. The Xia Army troops from Yinzhou were caught off guard, and before the battle started The formation was broken up by the wolf-like Song army.

At that time, the advantage of the party members was in the horse army, and it is still the case now, but it is difficult to continue raising 50 soldiers. The Xia army's infantry accounted for the majority, but they still used the horse army as the main force. Every battle must be galloping, making it difficult for the Song army to support .

This time, Feng Shui took turns, and more than 7000 Yinzhou soldiers suffered a devastating blow.In the first wave of the Song army's attack, five hundred heavy cavalry rushed into the ranks of the Xia army, and the two wings continued to fight and kill with cavalry and shooting. In less than two hours, their burden soldiers were the first to retreat.Although Xia's army of more than [-] horses made a heroic resistance, the whole army collapsed helplessly.

It was definitely a massacre, 3000 people killed 600 people, the battlefield was red, corpses littered the field, Xia Jun’s generals were frightened, Xiao Heda was even more silent, and they closed their doors one after another, and some people surrendered directly never mind.

The main force of the Song army is advancing steadily, and the troops of the Xia army in the north are moving south. Xiazhou waits and sees the changes. Yinzhou, Shizhou and other places are in chaos. The vanguard of the Army Division arrived.

There was a lot of quarrel in Xia's country. The civil officials headed by Qian Daochong believed that the east of Jingzhou was corrupt, and Xiliang was occupied by the Song army. Xia army lost half of its good horses to replenish. There was not much room for maneuver. If you have the capital to bargain, hurry up to make peace with the Great Song Xingchao, even if you are a vassal on the table.

Dangxiang used to be a vassal of the Great Song Dynasty, and the hereditary envoy of the Dingnan Army Jiedu, even if Yuan Hao proclaimed himself emperor, he still pursued being a minister to Khitan and the Great Song Dynasty.

However, part of the party clan headed by Jin Wang Chage believed that the defeat in the first battle was not terrible. Back then, the Song army ate away most of Hengshan, so they survived. As long as everyone is united, there is no obstacle that cannot be overcome.

Now, there are still tens of thousands of soldiers in the left wing of the Xia army, and the Sima army of the three armies in the north is going south continuously. They still have a chance to make a comeback.

They were sticking to their own opinions and arguing endlessly. The two sides almost rolled up their sleeves and started a gang fight. If Li Renxiao hadn't suppressed it in time, it would have been a big joke.

Li Renxiao was initially in control of the situation. After all, his foundation was not stable when he first came to the throne. His modesty in front of everyone in the past made some people think that he was weak and did not take him seriously.

Thinking about those high-spirited patriarchs, he would be furious. The deep-seated reason for Ren Dejing to gain his trust was also because of these big clan forces.

why?Ren Dejing was formerly known in the Song Dynasty to know Xi'an Prefecture's military and state affairs. He surrendered to the party and dedicated his daughter to become the governor of Jingzhou. It can be said that he has no foundation and is squeezed out by the party's powerful clan. This kind of person is most suitable for great use.

He ordered Ren Dejing to be stationed in Xingqing, and Wei Liluo temporarily presided over the affairs of Yanzhou's defense line.However, Li Renzhong is also considered a hero, trying his best to win over Ren Dejing.

For several days in a row, Li Renzhong and Ren Dejing kept meeting each other and had a drink or two with each other, but they got along very well.

Nowadays, some things about Li Renxiao and the Queen Mother are rumored in the palace, and the folks spread quickly.

Naturally, Li Renzhong also knew that if he wanted to find out Ren Dejing's attitude, it wouldn't be fun if the rumors were true. Thinking about the empress dowager and today's emperor makes people imagine.

However, Ren Dejing was not interested in the secret affairs of the palace, and did not express any anger or doubts. He mostly talked about romance, and Li Renzhong was not sure.

The Xia regime had internal and external troubles, and Ren Dejing summoned his clan brothers Ren Deren, brothers Ren Decong and Ren Degong, and nephew Ren Chuncong to discuss matters in the mansion.

"Brother, the current situation is aggressive, and the summer is full of wind and rain. Our family's survival depends on you alone, and we need to make a quick decision." Ren Decong frowned worriedly, and he was not very optimistic about the future of Xia's domestic and foreign troubles. .

Back then, when Ren Dejing offered the city to descend into the summer, he was not willing to agree. He thought that if he could persist until reinforcements arrived, Ren Dejing would be a lone minister and would be reused by the imperial court. Jiuqing is better than dedicating her daughter to be a second minister.

This time it was all right, the Ren family had just improved a little bit, and the brothers gradually took control of the power, but the Great Song Xingchao started to conquer the party members, and the aggressive offensive made him very worried.

Without it, even if the Dangxiang people are subjugated, in order to appease the Dangxiang tribes and maintain the rule of the occupied areas, the Great Song Xing Dynasty will give the patriarchs a lifetime of wealth, and even let them lead the tribes, and they will still be superior.

The fate of these second ministers is not easy to grasp. All dynasties have shown no mercy to second ministers, and the Song Dynasty was no exception. The worry became more and more intense, so I had to remind Ren Dejing to leave a note for the Ren family. Road, so that when the time comes, jade and stone will be destroyed.

How could Ren Dejing not understand what his brother meant, he knew there was no turning back, for the Great Song Xingchao, he was a rebellious minister and the murderer who wiped out the entire army of the 46th Brigade and Town.He has been in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty for more than ten years, and he has a clear understanding of the likes and dislikes of official style. The literati and bureaucrats can tolerate corruption, and even admire political opponents themselves, and take pleasure in it, but they can never tolerate dissident officials. He has no physiology. We can only fight to the end.

Ren Deren glared at Ren Decong, and said sharply: "It's just a temporary defeat. Great Xia still has hundreds of thousands of troops. According to the steep mountains and rivers, the victory or defeat is still unknown."
