Chapter 905

"But sir, you should be very clear about Your Majesty's temper. After I suffered such a big loss, Your Majesty will definitely not be willing to negotiate peace. There is even a high possibility that you will even think about winning back a city." The subordinates around you couldn't help but persuade.

"Sir, you may have handed this memorial to Your Majesty. Not only will it be useless, but it will also affect Your Majesty's treatment of you..."

"So what if it affects?" Xiao Wuna shook his head helplessly. "If we don't withdraw our troops, the losses of our Great Liao will only get bigger and bigger. At least, I will remind Your Majesty first. It's better to watch my Great Liao Tiger Ben continue to die for nothing for the sake of His Majesty's face."

Seeing Xiao Wuna insisting on doing this, the subordinates had nothing to say, so they could only let Xiao Wuna, the stubborn old man, continue to write quickly there.

However, what Xiao Wuna, who was far away in the left wing, did not expect that at this moment, the Sanchakou, which was originally guarded by three thousand soldiers, had already risen in the sky.

Three thousand soldiers and horses had already been killed so much that they scattered, and the civilians also scattered around. The supplies in the Sanchakou were taken away if they could be taken away, and those who could not be pulled away were all unreasonably poured on tincture oil and piled on flammable materials and burned them.

Even the simple pier at Sanchakou was burned into ruins on the Wuding River by the cavalry led by Zhong Shidao.

Zhong Shidao looked at the sky with a burning face, while urging his troops to move faster and faster, and put all the ignitable materials into the ignition ignition piles that were burning more and more vigorously.

When his personal soldiers reported to Zhong Shidao that it had passed noon, Zhong Shidao resolutely ordered the entire army to evacuate Sanchakou. Regardless of the large amount of scattered supplies, the 20,000 elite cavalry went straight to Wanjingkou in the northwest.

At this moment, Zhe Keshi was still urging the soldiers to continue their journey. They were still more than 30 miles away from Wanjingkou, and they were afraid that they would be able to arrive at night.

Xiao Shen did not expect that the Song army, who had been on the defensive before, would take the initiative to attack his camp today, just like a chicken blood.

Such a sudden action did catch the Liaoxia coalition off guard, but fortunately, after reacting, it stabilized the defense line, and the Song army's attack lasted almost for a morning before slowly retreating.

The sudden actions of the Song army also made Xiao Shen realize that although his army was far greater than that of the Song army opposite, there was still a powerful Song army behind him who was eyeing him.

With Yelu Jinping's defeat at the city of Youzhou, it seemed to indicate that if he was not careful, this powerful army would likely become a turtle in the jar.

To this end, Xiao Shen decided to send more reinforcements again. After joining the troops under Yelu Jinping, the Liaoxia coalition, with a total of 100,000, once again advanced step by step towards Youzhou City.

As for him, the main force of the commander army continued to stalemate with the Song army led by Su Dongpo. At this time, he sent two memorials to the Emperor Yelu Hongji of the Liao Dynasty.

One letter was naturally impeached Yelu Jinping for losing his troops, while the other letter was a memorial for help...

"Now, after Yelu Jinping was defeated, our troops no longer have the advantage. If we want to win, we can only ask Your Majesty to strongly support the troops and horses and supplies." Xiao Shen was in a bad mood and explained his views with the generals in the central army's tent.

All the generals nodded repeatedly with deep understanding. Originally, they thought that the combat effectiveness of the army on the Shaanxi Road of the Song Dynasty would inevitably be as cowardly as everyone remembered. In addition to being good at defending the city, they would definitely lose in field battles.

Therefore, this is the reason why Xiao Shen decided to go south in large numbers, but he never expected that Su Dongpo, a literati prime minister who had no military strategy, led tens of thousands of Song troops to block the Great Liao Hu Ben on the front line of the ancient city of Wuyan.

Unexpectedly, the Song army took the initiative to attack today. Xiao Shen was the leader of the army after all, and soon realized that the current hidden crisis of the Liaoxia coalition was imminent.

The generals had no other choice except to agree with Xiao Shen's strategy. After all, even if Xixia helps us now, the problem is that Xixia is so weak now.

Now, the reinforcements from Qin Fenglu of the Song Dynasty are advancing towards the Xishoubaotai Army and the Jingsai Army. Even the defeated Xixia was insufficient in its own troops and even the garrison was not enough, so they did not dare to draw soldiers and soldiers from the west to reinforce.

As for the east, Yinzhou was lost and Longzhou was trapped behind the Song army and was almost wrapped in meat filling. Renduo Zongbao wanted to rescue him, but most of the Xia army in the east were already in the coalition forces, so where could there be any extra troops for him?

Before, the Liaoxia coalition, which seemed to be strong, seemed to have loopholes everywhere and problems everywhere in a blink of an eye...

"After all the time, your highness is unaware of it. Youzhou is obviously unable to take it, so he trapped Youzhou with a side guard. The army went south directly. I am afraid that it had taken Wuyan Ancient City and Hongzhou long ago. How could it be like today, and it would make us lose our throne."

The words of a general really expressed the thoughts of everyone present. As for why no one made this suggestion at that time, it was already a thing of the past, and who would still pay attention to it?

Another official stood up to tell the matter, and there was not much food and grass left in the army, and at most it could only support eight days.

"What's going on?" Xiao Shen couldn't help but close his eyebrows and his eyes fell on Pochao Xinde next to him. "Logically speaking, when there are still ten days of food and grass, the next batch of food and supplies should arrive, why is it so slow this time?"

Seeing Xiao Shen’s questioning with a proud face, Pochao Xinde felt quite uncomfortable, but he had no choice but to answer in a low voice. "The officials have sent someone to urge me before. I think it's a little delayed because it rained a lot in the past few days."

"No matter what, I will give you another three days. Within three days, I will see the food and supplies arrive at the camp. The time is so elegant, so I will not feel embarrassed, right?" Xiao Shen stroked his eyebrows and said with a majestic attitude.

When he heard that there were still three days of situation, Pochao Xinde relaxed and quickly said to Xiao Shen. "Master, don't worry, the subordinates will pick up capable men and rush to Xiazhou to urge him. Within three days, the food, grass and supplies will definitely be transported to the ancient city of Wuyan."

"Well, okay, generals, I, the Great Liao, cannot let the State of Song take the initiative. I will launch an attack on the Song army's positions at the second hour of tomorrow and catch them off guard."

The civil and military officials agreed loudly, looking forward to the battle tomorrow morning.

In the capital of the Great Liao Dynasty, in the palace of the Song Dynasty, Yelu and Luwu were using supper, and the wine was pouring into his throat with cups of fine wine, as if he was unaware of it.
