Chapter 618

Naturally, he scolded the Han general Li Bing for being despicable and shameless. As expected, his intentions must be different. He took the salary of our Xixia, but licked Song Ting.

He even scolded Ye Cibo, as one of the eight Dangxiang clans, who was a noble person in the Ye Ci family, and also served as the governor of Yanzhou. However, he was so timid and cowardly that his army's retreat was cut off and he became a rootless water and a wandering duckweed.

Although the news was strictly guarded by Sa Chen and his generals, they were not allowed to spread it without any rumor. In addition, there were more than 50,000 soldiers stationed here, along with the disabled soldiers. Even if there were 50,000 quails, it would be difficult for the Song Dynasty to kill them.

What's more, these are more than 50,000 brave and fearless Western Xia warriors, not to mention that there are 20,000 elite Western Xia imperial guards who are fearless: the garrison is here.

Therefore, the soldiers were in a very peaceful mood, but the generals around Sa Chen were already very uneasy.

Liang Yibu in Hongzhou will definitely not let himself come so gently, leaving without taking away a trace of clouds. And Yuzhou, further north, has also been controlled by Liang Yibu's capable general Li Mao.

The entire Jianing Army Division's fortresses also fell under the hands of the Han army under Liang Yibi. Behind them, Yanzhou was occupied by the Song army. Now, these tens of thousands of troops and wounded soldiers can be said to be trapped in this broken military camp.

Some generals also raised it. If they gave up the nearly 10,000 disabled soldiers and defended them on the spot, they would be able to easily follow the light horse, escape north and advance along the edge of the sand sea, whether facing east or west, it would be a road of life.

"No, this is related to the honor of my garrison army, and also to the safety of my Daxia and the face of my Daxia. The Empress Dowager has become a prisoner of the Song State. We must never let Liang Yip's old dog surrender to the Song Dynasty easily." A garrison commander stood up and opposed loudly.

"General Fei Ting, Sa knows your mood, but now, our army is surrounded by enemies on all sides, and there is only a way to live in the north. If you don't go, would you still have to stay here and wait for us to be surrounded by the rebels of Song Mi and Liang Yibi?"

Sa Chen really wanted to agree with the general who made the Northern Expiration. Unfortunately, General Fei Ting was not only the commander of the garrison army, but also a strong competitor to the leader of the Fei Ting clan.

Although Fei Ting's family suffered heavy troops in the south, the problem is that the Ba family of Dangxiang, no matter which family of Dangxiang, is deeply rooted in Dangxiang, and they are also connected with each other.

Just like this time he led his army south, although Sa Chen was the head coach, he would ask Fei Tingdarong, who had been in the garrison for nearly twenty years, for advice. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to command the 20,000 garrison troops.

Now, Fei Tingdarong's strong opposition really made Sa Chen, who was interested in evading the north, so angry that his face turned blue, but he was helpless, because not only Fei Tingdarong, but also many arrogant soldiers and generals have made similar reasons.

"Importantly, there are nearly 10,000 wounded soldiers here. Do we have the heart to leave these robes? They are all heroes who were injured for my Daxia, and they are also the elite troops of my Daxia. If we dare to leave these nearly 10,000 wounded soldiers here, General Sa, have you ever thought that you can withstand the anger of Your Majesty? And the anger of the Dangxiang Ba clan..."

Sa Chen glared at the general who dared to threaten him in anger. "Damn it, aren't this general considering everyone's safety? That's why you gathered in the tent to discuss countermeasures."

"Yes, instead of staying here and sleeping, it is better for the army to slowly move north. Although the wounded soldiers are difficult to move, there is always a way to let them retreat north with the army." A general from Yanzhou said.

"How to go? They were all injured on their legs, and the wounds had just scabbed. Once they moved a little, the wounds would likely crack again. At that time, more than half of these ten thousand brothers would become lame. At that time, who would bear the consequences?" Another general jumped out and shouted.

"Everyone, but we stay here, it is very likely that in a few days, a large number of Song troops will arrive. If we wait for them to encircle Liang Yi, wouldn't we betray the army and humiliate the country in vain?"

"What's more, we retreat northward and reach the edge of the Shahai Sea, and go east to the four prefectures of Yinxia, ​​west to the Xingqing Prefecture, but it is much better than staying in this place where we are attacked from both sides."

"This general, although what you said makes sense, if you just withdraw your troops like this, after seeing Yanzhou fall into Songting, Liang Yibu, who is under the Jianing Military Department, betrayed my Daxia, then, how can you tell the general of the army to Your Majesty?" Fei Tingdarong groaned and asked at the generals who supported the retreating north.

This made the generals unable to speak for a long time. They all looked at Sa Chen, who was stroking his short beards in a deep voice. After all, he was the main general. It would be fine if he lost the Youzhou and Hongzhou, which were originally occupied by Liang Yip, but now, who could have imagined that Yanzhou had fallen into the hands of Song Ting.

So the first thought that Sa Chen was to fly north quickly, but now, Fei Ting Darong's words also alerted Sa Chen, which was an extremely realistic problem.

The failure of Yanzhou is not as good as the Jianing Military Office. It is very likely that the action of sending troops to Hongzhou itself and drawing a large number of troops from Yanzhou became the reason for those court officials to criticize themselves and impose the charges of the failure of Yanzhou on themselves.

At that time, I was afraid that I would not even cry, and I thought that Sa's family could become a major family member of Dangxiang. As a result, this crime was absent. Even if I was not arrested and imprisoned, I would be inevitably demoted and removed from office.

At this time, Sa Chen suddenly realized that the burden on his shoulders was really terrible, and he felt that his shoulders and backs were about to be crushed by such heavy pressure.

No matter what decision you make, as the main general, you have to bear the consequences. This is the most troublesome thing. Sa Chen raised his head and glanced at the generals with different thoughts in front of him.

North escape is a good strategy, but the blame is definitely on his own, and he will not retreat northward, and stand firm on the spot for help? Haha... Daxia lost 60,000 elite troops just before the battle of Song Xia Hongde Village.

Now, because of Liang Yifu's rebellion, Daxia not only lost 30,000 elite troops, but more importantly, there were 70,000 elite troops and some wandering soldiers and scattered brave soldiers who also became Liang Yifu's accomplices.
