The Battle of Yongle

They used 6 military supervisors' forces, for fear that they would not be enough, and they reached the level of 9 out of ten points during the recruitment of the people! They collected 00,000 troops and brought enough food for 100 days to gather at Jingyuan Road of the Song Dynasty. As a result, they waited for more than a month, but Li Xian had no movement at all, but Yongle City was built there! The people of Xixia were angry and anxious, and they really pressed down the gourd and could no longer delay. The whole army drove towards Fuyan Road and pulled out the nail of Yongle City!

At this time, the defending troops sent people to Mizhi City for emergency help. The first person to receive the message was General Gao Yongheng. His brother was Gao Yongneng, who ranked second only to Qu Zhen in the Fuyan army. Both brothers played a decisive role in the Wuding River Valley battle not long ago. Such people should be respected in the army. Gao Yongheng immediately went to see Xu Xi and put his opinion that "there are few soldiers in the city, and there is no water source, so it is difficult to stick to it." To be fair, this is an objective fact. But Xu Xi's reaction was furious and put this coward and coward in prison! Then he smiled and said a very awesome sentence, "The people of Xixia are coming to die. This is a good time for me to make achievements and achieve fame." He gave two orders: 1. The nominal highest commander of the Northwest, Shen Kuo, was asked to take charge of Mizhi, the reason was that the commander should not be moved lightly. I led the troops to Yongle City to fight the enemy!

The entire Song army trembled together, and the coldest one was Shen Kuo. He regretted it. As the highest commander in the northwest, the Yongle City plan could not be implemented without his support. From this we can judge: he was distorted! With his knowledge of astronomy and geography, would he not even understand the huge defect of Yongle City's lack of water? Obviously, Shen Kuo regarded this city as a government project rather than a war preparation project. The test suddenly came! Shen Kuo thought about it and then reminded Xu Xi: The difference in military strength is too great. The enemy's army is 00,000, and our army does not exceed 40,000, so this battle cannot be fought. It is better to use Yongle City as bait and let the Xixia people occupy it. After that, we recruit all the troops in the northwest to win the battle... But Xu Xi smiled at Shen Kuo: The emperor has given me full power to the matter of Yongle City. You are the commander, and I will leave you 10,000 troops, so stay in Mizhi City to listen to my good news...

Xu Xi brought more than 10,000 people on the road, and there were more than 5,000 people in Yongle City, and the Song army was about 10,000. The Xixia army was 00,000. Is this number very familiar? Yes! Just like the battles such as Sanchuankou and Haoshuichuan during the Li Yuanhao period, they were all 1:10!

On the 8th, Xu Xi and Li Shunju came to Yongle City, and the general Qu Zhen was greeted by him. For the sake of the war, Qu Zhen really didn't want Xu Xi to enter the city: I'll dispatch the troops, so you can go back to Mizhicheng, the rear to supervise the battle!

Xu Xi smiled, "Vei Marquis Qu, so timid." He entered the city with a smile. He had many thoughts and felt so uncomfortable! After entering the city, his first order knocked down the entire army - everyone should pay attention: the reward regulations for this battle should be changed! In the past, everyone used the enemy's heads to judge merit, which was not good. Everyone often delayed the situation of the battle to steal people's heads, and it also affected unity! Now, in order to concentrate on killing the enemy, I announce: Military merits are equal, everyone is the same!

This was just Xu Xi's first idea. When the 9th, when 00,000 Xixia troops were led to Yongle City by Ye Binma and Meeba, the rest of his ideas were revealed one by one. We must admit that these ideas not only caused great torture to the Song army, but also caused extraordinary destruction to the Xixia army!

Ye Fengma and Meelebum have fought for many years, and it is the first time that this happened to happen? The strength comparison between the two armies reached 1:10. One side did not hide in the city, waiting for the enemy to climb the city wall and throw stones down, but walked out and formed a formation under the city! The two were immediately scared and sweated. Before, the Song army often lined up outside the city, killing the Xixia people with one enemy and ten. This time it would not be staged again, right? They regretted that if this happened, they had a big problem in the distribution of troops!

The Xixia army had to cross the river first. In order to facilitate the attack, Ye Fengma and Meeba first sent infantry to cross the river, and Tie Yaozi and other heavy cavalry were left on the other side of the river. At this time, the Song army left the city, and if they attacked first, the consequences would be unimaginable! The Song army also discovered this on the city. Originally, when Xu Xi sent troops out of the city, all the generals opposed it. It was not that the Fuyan army could not fight tough battles, but they had never been so loyal and simple. We were very accustomed to fighting insidiously...

But Xu Xi denied it. He sat upright on the top of the city and said the ancient text, "You know that the king's army will not be in line without drums." As soon as this statement came out, the Fu Yanjun was confused: Brother, we are all rough people who use swords to chop people. You are very knowledgeable and don't understand it!

Here is a brief introduction to the saying "The king's army will not be in line without drums" comes from a god in the Spring and Autumn Period. This person is famous and Chinese people basically know that his name is Duke Xiang of Song. When he said this, he was fighting with the barbarian Chu army recognized by the Spring and Autumn Period. The Chu army crossed the river and attacked him. Someone in the Song army advised him to take the Chu army to cross the river and launch an attack immediately. He could win more than less. Duke Xiang of Song said this with righteousness. As a result, he was defeated by the Chu army after the entire army crossed the river. He was shot in a halt and died of serious injuries... For thousands of years, he was a big joke, a typical negative example. At this time, he was mentioned by Xu Xi, as if he was still shining! Xu Xi, you are just a worker who gets a salary and fights for others. What kind of elephant are you pretending to be an elephant? Think you are Duke Xiang of Song and want to fight for the hegemony?

Xu Xi didn't care. In the unprecedentedly relaxed political environment of the Song Dynasty, he wanted to show his own style! So, Ye Fengma and Mee's heavy cavalry buried in the Iron Harrier also crossed the river, and the Xixia army launched an attack! Before they could move, the Song army attacked first! Thousands of Fuyan's cavalry holding snow-lit silver spears and wearing strange brocade battle robes rushed towards more than 50,000 heavy armored Iron Harrier Scouts...

This is an incredible move, unless it is the Han Hu Ben Army or the Tang Xuan Jia Cavalry, it is tantamount to seeking death. But the Fuyan Army rushed over and took Xu Xi's death order - it must be attacked again! After that, the infantry behind can take the battle! This means: no matter what the fate of these thousands of silver spear cavalry are, the rest of the friendly forces can only sit still!

What happened afterwards was speechless. The military discipline of the Fuyan army was so strong. Every requirement of Xu Xi was strictly implemented. The Silver Spear Army faced more than 10 times the heavy armored cavalry and attacked them continuously. After that, the Western Xia Iron Harrier counterattacked! No matter how they resisted, the disadvantages of quantity and equipment made the Silver Spear Cavalry defeated!

When they were defeated, they were facing the infantry rushing up from behind... After the attack, the infantry was about to go into battle! The cavalry turned back into the infantry phalanx, and there was chaos. In the situation where more than 60,000 people were involved, no one could turn the tide. When the Fuyan army was defeated, they retreated to the walls of Yongle City in chaos...

At this time, the opportunity appeared again. As long as you seize it, the Song army could still win! On the top of the city, Qu Zhen, the general of the Fuyan army, discovered the fighter opportunity in the chaos. He urgently suggested to Xu Xi: More than 50,000 elite iron kites in the Xixia people were all out. The Fuyan army should immediately send all the remaining cavalry around the Wuding River. The remaining ones were the old and weak of the Xixia army, attacking the weak with strong force and being caught off guard. The Xixia people would definitely be in chaos! At that time, the Iron kites were rescued, and the Fuyan army took advantage of the opportunity to cover up the killing, and the defeat could be reversed immediately! But Xu Xi stopped. The meaning of stopping was that he was in a state of static momentum, neither saying agreed nor refusal, no order was issued, and the city gate was closed tightly...

The battlefield was not waiting for people. More than 50,000 iron kite troops were like giant shields made of iron armor, which pushed the Fuyan army into the city wall. In order to escape, they climbed up the cliff and jumped into Yongle City. A total of more than 800 people died in battle and more than 15,000 people came back, including silver spear cavalry and infantry, but there was no difference. Because war horses could not climb cliffs, jumped over the city wall, more than 8,000 war horses remained outside the city, becoming the spoils of the Xixia people!

Xu Xi's stopping watch continued. Ye Fengma and Meebeb stared at the second target, which was the fatal hole of Yongle City - the water source! There was no water in the city. A total of 14 wells were built outside the city, and the general army officer Li Ji was responsible for it. The bad things were broken by Li Ji! This man was born with a good financial management man, and he was born with a love for money as his life. The water camp not only had water sources, but also had a large number of food and grass. The civilians who built Yongle City sometimes came to ask for it, but he refused! The Xiang army had their own solutions, and they secretly dug a secret passage and opened it in...

This secret passage was discovered by the people of Xixia! The heavy water source was suddenly broken, and in just a moment, the fatal injury in Yongle City was revealed! The news came, and all the generals and officers of the Fuyan army were stunned. Everyone knew what this meant. They could not hold on, they could only ask for help!

Song Shenzong quickly received news, and he ordered the northwest troops to approach Yongle City immediately and rescue the siege at all costs! The military order was conveyed, but there were only three hopes: 1 Tian Yan, Shen Kuo, Li Xian…

Zhong Yan, if he could quickly penetrate the siege and enter Yongle City and re-control the Fuyan army, the effect would undoubtedly be the most ideal! But after the military order was passed, Zhong Yan refused to implement it! He did not say how depressed, angry, or wronged he was. He emphasized the objective facts. There were only a few thousand old and weak soldiers at hand. What did you ask me to use to penetrate the siege of the 00,000 Xixia army? Emperor, are you in a brain?

After receiving the order, Shen Kuo immediately pulled all the troops out of Mizhi City to rescue Xu Xi. But before he went far, he suddenly received news from an inside line. It was said that the Song army had done nothing about the intelligence work before. The inside line was the younger brother of the Xixia general Ayole! This younger brother reported to Shen Kuo: His brother was leading troops to attack Suide City, and there were 00 Qiang people in the city as internal responses! Shen Kuo panicked when he heard this. Yongle City was in crisis, and if Suide City was lost again, the west of the Song Dynasty's Fuyan Road

The northern defense line is over! After a simple weighing, Shen Kuo led his troops to Suide and must first protect the rear defense line! When he arrived, the battle that should have happened did not appear, and Ayole retreated as soon as he showed up. This is not to say that the information was false, but that Suide City was well prepared. When Ayole arrived, he saw the Qiang corpses hanging on the city walls, and all the insides were killed by the Song army! After such trouble, Shen Kuo's reinforcements were also delayed...

The last hope is placed on Li Xian. This eunuch who has maintained a record of winning since his birth, including helping Wang Shao pacify Xihe and the five-way expedition to Xixia, sent troops on the 17th, broke through blockades and traveled thousands of miles. When he approached the war zone, the food and grass were almost eaten up. Looking up, the Xixia military camp outside Yongle City was nearly 10 miles thick! What is powerlessness? Li Xian is a rational eunuch. He retreated a little, stationed not far away, while restoring his military strength while watching the situation...

In this way, Yongle City was alone, rising and falling in the vast ocean of 00,000 enemy soldiers... Time passed day by day, and the rain fell for 10 days, and the Fuyan army in the city could only use the juice of horse manure to quench their thirst. In the desperate situation, Qu Zhen and Gao Yongneng jointly suggested: take out all the coins to reward soldiers, and concentrate their forces to break through while there is still some combat power! If there is no accident, at least six or seventy percent of people can escape... The outcome of the war is never about the gains and losses of a city and one place. The vitality is the most valuable, especially the elite soldiers of the Fuyan army, who are themselves the most rare wealth of the country!

But Xu Xi opposes again: The terrain of Yongle City is dangerous, so how can you give up easily? Moreover, the general flees and the morale of the army is shaken. It is right or wrong, and I really don’t have the mood to care about it. This is a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, and only works with his own nature. Of course, such a person also has his own benefits. In a desperate situation, Xu Xi climbed the top of the city and defended with the soldiers. He ate pancakes when he was hungry, and lie on the soldiers’ legs when he was sleepy. At least in terms of personal ethics, Xu Xi is worthy of the battlefield and the soldiers!

Xu Xi worked so hard that temporarily suppressed the fatigue and resentment of the Junyan army. Everyone defended the city together! Faced with 00,000 enemies, Yongle City was never broken! But this also attracted a bad star - Dangxiang War God Renduoling Ding Ding! After the attack of the five routes of attacking Xia, Xixia had already been exhausted. Yongle City really forced them to go to Daoshan, and they had to win it quickly no matter what! For this reason, they once again sent this last trump card!

Renduolingding's cruelty is rare. After this man was in office, the attack of the Xixia army suddenly escalated. He ignored casualties and sent more than 10,000 troops to climb up the city like ants every day. Accordingly, thousands of corpses were piled up under the city every day. At the beginning, the Xixia people still respected their bodies very much, and they wrapped them up with blankets to drag them back. Later, Renduolingding's strong attack order made people crazy and ignored everything! Thousands of corpses were piled under the city walls, and those who were still alive would step on them to climb up the city. This attack strength, looking at all the wars in the founding of the Song Dynasty, even if Emperor Taizong of Song went on an expedition to Yanyun, the Chanyuan War that determined the fate of the Song Dynasty did not reach the level...

Faced with these, Xu Xi, who had only seen it for thousands of years, also hesitated. Fighting hard is not a solution, reinforcements have not been delayed, and he thought of negotiations. No matter what, even if it is delayed for a while... He sent Lu Wenhui first, and Renduolingding wanted Qu Zhen to come before the negotiations could be negotiated. Then he sent Jing Siyi, and the other party finally offered the price. Negotiation is possible, unless the city of Lanzhou, Mizhi and other cities seized by the Song army in the Xia Dynasty were returned to Xixia! Xu Xi smiled bitterly, this was impossible! Even if he wanted to agree, it would be beyond his authority. At this time, Renduolingding appeared under Yongle City, and shouted to the city with some sarcasm, "Is the Han people no water?" Why don't you surrender?"

Xu Xi immediately picked up a kettle and poured the whole kettle of water. "No water? What is this?" Ren Duolingding laughed loudly. "It's only that." Turning back to the camp and attacked immediately! The army of Fu Yan on the city was cold. This Xixia people were really ghosts, even more ghosts than Li Yuanhao back then! He was right. There was only a pot of water left in the entire Yongle City at that time. One pot was in Xu Xi's hands and the other pot was in the hands of eunuch Li Shun. Xu Xi wanted to use the old method of cheating Li Yuanhao in Linzhou City back then to deceive Ren Duolingding, but unfortunately the other party was not fooled!

The drought continues, and the strong attack continues until September 0. This day is the fate of the Fuyan army. The sky is dark clouds, lightning and thunder are roaring. It is about to fall! The fatal thirst of the Fuyan army is about to be solved! The God of War of Dangxiang is crazy! His life is going to be killed at all costs, even if it is dead, he will attack the city! The heavy rain finally fell. It was late at night. There was no light except lightning. The torch could not be ignited. Hundreds of thousands of people inside and outside the city were fighting to the death in the dark. They could not see who they killed or who killed themselves. The darkness will eventually swallow everything. This moment finally came... Late on the night of the 0th, Yongle City fell and was immediately demolished by the Xixia people...
