Chapter 519 The arrival of reinforcements from the Song Dynasty

Chapter 519

"So, I hope you can rest for a day or two before heading north. With the cavalry, you can deal with the Xixia miscellaneous soldiers and auxiliary soldiers who are also lacking in cavalry. I believe you can deal with it calmly."

After hearing this, the generals couldn't help but feel disgusted. They felt like a group of dogs in their hearts, lying in one trough after another, and this was not the end.

"Wang Jianjun, do you want us, more than 2,500 cavalrymen to deal with tens of thousands of troops on the other side?" A general stood up with a painful face and said.

Zhe Keshi's brows were deeply frowned. "Wang Jianjun, what you mean, Zhe understands, what you mean is to let our Song Dynasty cavalry try their best to harass the Western Xia soldiers, making it difficult for them to gather into a group, and they can either be trapped in place to wait for reinforcements. If they have the chance, they can also annihilate one or two Western Xia troops besieging the city..."

Wang Yang stretched out his thumb to Zhe Keshi and said, "Those who know me are General Zhe. Wang did have such a plan, but I don't know what you think of General Zhe?"

"We now have more than 2,500 cavalry and captured more than 600 war horses. If we get together, we will pull out a cavalry of 3,000 people." Zhe Keshi said, squinting his eyes, and narrowing his eyes.

"Although Xiaoliang left at least three times the number of troops between the villages and forts, although he could gain an advantage in military strength, the defenders of the various forts and villages of our Song Dynasty could only be trapped in the forts."

"If our elite cavalry is on the side, it will indeed make the Western Xia soldiers and horses stand up and stand up. If you want to go south to assist Xiaoliang and attack forward and backward, you must carefully consider whether they can withstand the raid of our great Song cavalry during the march."

"Yes, we might be able to work with some defenders from the fortresses, fight hard, defeat and disperse one or two Western Xia soldiers. In that case, they will be frightened if they protect themselves, even if they have the intention of going south to cooperate with the outside world?"

After a long discussion among the generals, they felt that this plan was feasible. After all, the elites of Xixia are now concentrated in the city of Huanzhou.

However, their three thousand elite cavalry were not enterprising enough, but it was still possible to make the Xixia army scattered in various villages and forts in Huanzhou frightened and panicked, and maybe even gain a ruthless vote.

However, after discussing with the generals, it was finally confirmed that General Huang, who led the army to support, would bear this heavy responsibility. He did not ask the cavalry to annihilate many Western Xia soldiers. He just needed to continue to harass the Western Xia army, so that they could only stay in place and could not move forward.

Zhe Keshi would stay and preside over the defense of the village wall. General Huang did not expect Zhe Keshi to hand over this important task of arduous but absolutely great merit to him.

"Don't worry, General, the last general will not let down the general's high expectations, nor will he let down the high expectations of the two generals." General Huang was so excited that he looked like he could not do anything, and he wanted to lead the army to rush out of the forts in the north to cause trouble now.

Wang Yang patted the iron armor on General Huang. "Since it has been assigned, then please General Huang, please go back to the camp and have some rest and wait until tomorrow afternoon before departure."

After seeing the guys leaving, Wang Yang smiled with relief. At this time, he saw Zhe Keshi standing in front of the map, frowned, and looked at the somewhat abstract map.

"General Zhe, is it our plan, is there any mistakes or misses?" Wang Yang approached and asked. Ma Shang, who was not in military affairs, also came to the map with a curious look on his face.

"Two sirs, although we have blocked this main road, if the Xixia army really cannot attack, they will definitely find another way, and here..." Zhe Keshi looked at the map, gently stroked his fingers on it, and then landed on one of them.

"This is a mountain road behind Maling. Before, General Huang and his friends passed by this mountain road and appeared behind Wei Mingji. They cooperated with our army inside and outside and caught Wei Mingji off guard."

Hearing this, Wang Yang couldn't help but pat his head. "It's a secret. If General Zhe hadn't been clear, we would have really had a big problem. The lives of nearly 20,000 soldiers and civilians would be in danger."

"What should we do now?" Ma Shang's face changed drastically when he heard this. "If the Xixia army went to a side division and walked around the village wall, then we would be in real danger."

"How wide is this mountain road?" Wang Yang's brows couldn't help but lock them deep and asked to Zhe Keshi.

"The entrance to this mountain road is quite hidden, and the narrowest part is less than half the width here. The only good news is that the road is a bit rugged and difficult to walk, and there are strange rocks there, so it is impossible for the main force of Xixia to pass there, but no one can predict that if they are anxious to jump from there..."

Wang Yang couldn't help but frown. It's true that if the Xixia army was blocked, they would definitely think of ways to find other ways out. If that were the case, they might be trapped by the Xixia army.

Wang Yang took a deep breath and his eyes fell on Zhe Keshi's body. "Then I will just have to worry about General Zhe, you, General Zhe."

"Why did you say this, Wang Jianjun?"

"Wang will lead the young and strong men and some rural warriors to rush over to build a line of defense as soon as possible, and strive to block the whereabouts of the Xixia people. We have already built such a line of defense here. We can't watch those Xixia thieves slip past there and all their previous efforts are wasted."

"What's more, compared to commanding marching and fighting, Wang is not as good as General Zhe, who has experienced many battles, so it's better for Wang to go."

When Zhe Keshi saw Wang Yang insisting on going, he had to admit that Wang Yang's approach was the best choice now. After discussing for a long time, it was finally confirmed that Wang Yang led 500 Yuan of Youjia soldiers and 1,000 Township Warriors, 1,000 border troops and 2,000 civilians to the west of Maling.

In addition, those side vans should not be thrown under the built wall, but will be pushed all over, and it will be helpful when building defense lines there at that time.

In the early morning of the next day, Wang Yang said goodbye to Zhe Keshi and led the soldiers and the civilians to the north. Similarly, General Huang also led the three thousand elite cavalry to the north.

They all have tasks with different purposes but same responsibilities. One is to harass the enemy, and the other is to block the other road.

Wang Yang had just set off to the west side of Maling. He was stationed at Huanzhou City and was attacking Huanzhou madly. However, the Xixia army, which was attacking Huanzhou in a crazy manner, received a heartbreaking news. At least 50,000 or 60,000 troops were coming from Qingzhou. The vanguard of the army had already crossed the Fucheng Village and was advancing step by step towards the Maling Village.

Xiao Liang was stunned for half a cup of tea when he received the news. Liang Yibi's face next to him was so blue that he was afraid of others, and he was walking in the tent with his hands.

"A 50,000 or 60,000 troops, are you really sure there are so many?" A general from the Nori family shouted loudly at the scout leader.

"General, how dare the young man use this to deceive the empress? The young man has seen it himself. Most of the soldiers and horses are wearing armor. They are definitely not the kind of local heroes or young men who are pieced together in the next time to make up for the numbers."

"It's because I want to find out whether this army is really powerful and generals. The ten young subordinates have only come back, and I and two brothers..." The scout leader replied with tears in his eyes.

"Why has the Ai family never heard of this Su Dongpo when did this Su Dongpo know how to march and fight?"

"Empress, there is also Master Zhong and the Zhe family's Zhe Kexing beside Su Dongpo..." The leader of the scout cavalry raised his head carefully and replied.
