Eight hundred and ninety-first chapter battle (3)

A controversy started against the Xixia army.

When we arrived in Huangzhou, we should not expect that there were many tribes that would be more friendly to the Song Dynasty. But everyone had their own ideas. If Tubo was bound to perish, they would rather choose the Song Dynasty than choose the Western Xia. Although the Song Dynasty threatened that the Fanhou was, many people did not believe that there were such sweet fruits in the world to eat, but at least they were better than those in the hands of the Western Xia people.

In particular, the Western Xia sent troops to the Wusheng Army and the ancient Weicheng caused many Tubo nobles to have doubts.

Speaking of tactical command, there is really no one who can take action except Guizhang, but the simple military principles can still be understood. If Xixia truly helped Tubo, it would gather 150,000 troops, sent troops from Lanzhou, and directly conquered Miaochuan City. Wang Shao saw the opportunity quickly and evacuated in time, but otherwise, he would have allowed these tens of thousands of Song troops to make dumplings. Wang Shao evacuated, and the two armies combined, and the power could be used to recover Xihe.

The Xixia people did not do this, but instead sent an envoy to inform Tubo, dispatching 200,000 troops to attack Wusheng Army and Guweicheng, and cutting off the Song army's retreat and supply. This was undoubtedly an excuse. Although Xixia stopped the military operations in Shazhou, it still had the idea of ​​attacking Xihe.

This made some tribes who did not want to fight the Song Dynasty feel even more heart-warming.

Dong Wen was a little confused at this time, and he also learned a message. After his unscrupulous nephew was captured by Wang Shao, he went to the capital of the Song Dynasty. The Emperor of the Song Dynasty did not blame him. He named Zhao Sizhong and was appointed as the governor of Rongzhou. His mother gave him the wife of Suining County and gave him 30,000 yuan in powder money per month. Although his wife Bao was incompatible with Mu Zheng, he still gave him the title of Xianning County. Yu Longke's sister Mu Zheng's second wife Yu Longqi was the title of Anding County. This is for

Yu Longke's brothers were worthy of their face. His third wife became the lord of Renhe County, and his fourth wife was blind and Sanmu did not mention it. This reward was already very generous. The county monarch was a fourth-rank woman in the Tang Dynasty. He was even more noble than the talented people in the palace. In the Song Dynasty, only Zhongsan doctors, generals, gangs and scholars were more than the masters, and the mothers or wife of ministers who were particularly meritorious of the country could be granted as a county monarch. The entire Song Dynasty had less than fifty people. Mu Zheng's family won three.

Mu Zheng's five younger brothers were named Zhao Jizhong, Zhao Jizhong, Zhao Shaozhong, Zhao Chunzhong and Zhao Cunzhong respectively. They were rewarded with officials and titles.

Originally, as Wang Shao and Zheng Lang wanted to go to the capital, Mu Zheng quickly returned to Hezhou, and asked Mu Zheng to surrender the five prefectures of Hemin on behalf of the court. The army of Hemin and the army had not yet surrendered to the Song Dynasty. However, Wang Gui wrote a letter saying: The leader of Xifan was not as clever as Mo Zheng. Since Shao Jing controlled one side, he captured and killed Wuwen tens of thousands of times, and his reputation was established. Now one or two types of fallen fallen, how can they be equal to Mo Zheng return and then settle down? Observing Zheng's decline, the momentum is not obtained, and it is not sincere to have the heart toward the Han. If I live in Xizhou, my movements and stillness, the virtual and real ones will be obtained, and the people of all kinds are heartless and blame the deep Han. Once Xia State and Dong Jian took the opportunity to send troops to the distance, they will be able to cover the conflict of Tongyuan. The foreign tribes on all sides worked together to attack Xizhou, Tao, Min, Die, Danglian Heng and thorn the knots. At this time, I am afraid that Xihe will not have it anymore.

The Song Dynasty planned to leave Mu Zheng in the capital of the Song Dynasty, giving Mu Zheng 50 hectares of land in Xihe River, and Bao's Yulong family ten hectares each. However, when Zheng Lang opposed it, Mu Zheng could not leave Hezhou, but had to be transferred to Qinzhou as the governor of Qinzhou, and his sons Piwudingwa (Zhao Huaiyi) and Gaiwa (Zhao Bingyi) attended the Fanhou Conference to safeguard the hearts of the people of Hehuang.

Although the nephew could not be the King of Hezhou anymore, and the Song Dynasty could not do such a foolish thing, and gave his nephew a chance to turn over, compared to his nephew's repeated resistance and the tragic death of the Song general Jing Sili, the Song Dynasty was very kind and righteous, so Dong Wen sometimes couldn't avoid thinking about what he would get if he took the initiative to admit defeat to the Song Dynasty?

Xixia's bad intentions made Dong Wen sway inside.

However, there are some hardliners in Tubo, including his adopted son Aligu and brave general Guizhang.

Gui Zhang said: "Zanpu, and you all, can we restore the Hetao Minwu Victory Army?"

Everyone said nothing together. This is a cold joke. Until now, no one dared to underestimate the Song army. Dragging Wang Shao's army in front of Zongge City was because the Song army was insufficient, and the other was because the front line was too long and the supply was difficult. When it came to Wusheng Army, Qinzhou was convenient later, with sufficient troops and no supply was difficult. If Tubo forced troops to send troops, it would be impossible. It would be a good thing to be able to protect the north and south of Henan.

"Anyway, it's because of the loss. Why can't we lose in Xixia? Let Xixia make a solid city wall for us in front?"

"Ghost Chapter, what if Xixia has come to the rescue and learn from the Song Dynasty?" Xibawen said.

Compared with the Song Dynasty, Xixia was more hostile to Tubo.

"Xibawen, do you think the Song Dynasty is willing to let the Western Xia get the Wusheng Army? Zanpu, by my plan, it is better to annihilate the Song army under Zongge City first, and take Hezhou when the Song Dynasty fought against the Western Xia, and then send troops to Taozhou to expand its strength. Then watch the battle between the Song Dynasty and the people of Xixia. If the Song Dynasty urged the people of Xixia again, our country could immediately seek peace with the Song Dynasty. I believe that the Song Dynasty would not fight the two countries hard, and then peace would be beneficial to our country. If the Song army could not even deal with the Western Xia, our country could act according to the opportunity."

"Ghost Chapter, what ability do you have to defeat Wang Shao, a Song man?" Xibawen sneered.

Gui Zhang is still uneasy and wants to send troops to Taozhou. He must give up Xige City. If he loses Xige City, can he still stay in Henan?

"It's not difficult," Gui Zhang said his plan again.

At least it seems very reasonable. Wang Shao's army was exhausted at the city of Zongge. The Song Dynasty happened to send Jing Siyi to lead two thousand soldiers and four thousand civilians to escort a large amount of supplies from ancient Weicheng and came to Zonggecheng. If this baggage was robbed and then taken down Bajin Fort, there was no need to fight, the Song army would be trapped to death on the line between Bajin Fort and Zonggecheng.

Then, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Xixia people fighting with the Song army, the Tubo people could completely turn into fishermen.

After a pause, Gui Zhang said again: "Everyone, the Song army started from Qinzhou and arrived in Zongge City, with less than 80,000 troops. Now the Song army is killed at Zongge City, and the Xia Kingdom sends 200,000 troops. Even if we seek peace, we must see if the Song army can survive this difficulty. Should we ask for peace now? Moreover, the Song general Wei Qi guarding Bajin City!"

Not to mention the 200,000 or 150,000 troops in Xixia are facing each other, Jing Siyi and Wei Qi are both defeated generals under Gui Zhang.

It can also be understood that during this Western Expedition of the Song Dynasty, there were many powerful generals, but most of them were under Wang Shao's tent, and some famous generals. The Western Xia army arrived. Zheng Lang did not dare to call them as the official who escorted the food and grass. At least Jing Siyi and Wei Qi performed remarkably in the battle between Baicheng.

However, the long and thin roads are hundreds of miles long. The ghost seal is well prepared, and with superior forces, the chance of attacking the food and grass team and taking the Bajin Fort is undoubtedly more than 90%. If successful, it may not be able to eliminate Wang Shao's army. However, the crisis in Huangzhou is at least resolved.

Dong Jin thought for a while and said, "Everyone, let's follow the meaning of the ghost seal."

His prestige is far less than his father, but he is always the second generation of Zampo, the nominal Zanpu of Tsongkha Kingdom, and the boss of Hehuang. He spoke to give it a try. Xibawen retreated helplessly with the leaders.

Guizhang returned to his clan land and summoned the army of various clans in Dayu Valley to prepare to attack Jing Siyi and Bajin Fort.

Xibawen did not object under pressure, but did not agree. He was not interested in the Song Dynasty, but was disgusted with Gui Zhang, so he did not send troops to help.

The army of all tribes gathered quickly. Although the Song army carried the food and grass slowly, Jing Siyi could not let the food and grass be entrusted to Huangzhou City. In that way, Wang Shao could withdraw his troops to support at any time, and no one dared to fight directly with Wang Shao head-on. Therefore, the speed was very fast.

Guizhang started to go north with his army. Xibawen didn't care, but he didn't expect Guizhang to use Xibawen's excuse that Xibawen did not send troops to help. He said that Xibawen colluded with the Song people, and the real main force remained in Yugu. He heard that Guizhang's army was heading north. While Xibawen was watching, Guizhang's son Yong led tens of thousands of troops to suddenly pounced on Xige City.

Xibawen was caught off guard and asked his eldest son Piaoji to lead his army to fight. The two armies fought with Xige City for a while. Piaoji was defeated and killed. The remaining troops surrendered under the pursuit of Asu. Asu took the opportunity to attack Xige City. Forced by Asu's fierce flames, Xibawen fled eastward along the foothills of Dajishi Mountain.

Dong Wen was very unhappy with this, but he had very weak control over the land of Henan and had no choice but to rely on Guizhang's force, so he sent someone to blame him lightly, and the matter was left unresolved.

Wang Shao didn't know what happened in Tubo for the time being, but he knew that Xixia had sent troops.

In late July, Xixia sent troops to Hengshan, worship Yikou, Tiandu Mountain, and Huining Pass, mainly to threaten and restrain the Song army of Huanqing Road and Jingyuan Road. Then Liang Yichi led a 150,000 army to divide into two groups. Liang Yinan went from the west to Kangu, Maxian Mountain, and Donggu, attacked Jiehebao, and went straight to Xizhou City. Liang Yichi sent troops from Ruzhe Valley to the west to envoy the city, and from the west to envoy the city, he personally led the central army to attack Guweicheng, and general Li Qing led the left army to attack Tongweizhai.

Originally, Li Kaitai was remarkable in several battles, and the chiefs of all races recommended Li Kaitai to accompany him, but Liang Yi was afraid of his achievements, so Li Kaitai followed the situation and refused. So he asked another Han general Li Qing Dynasty, who performed well in several battles.

Hearing this news made Wang Shao feel embarrassed.

Even if all previous efforts are abandoned, and if they are abandoned, they will not be allowed to abandon Miaochuan City in Huangzhou. After returning to Hezhou, they will face two attacks from Xixia and Tubo. This battle is still a rare disaster. Therefore, Guocheng will first occupy a strategic location twenty miles west of Huangzhou, and build Suiyuan Pass. The army retreated from Zongge City to Suiyuan Pass and Zhuiluling.

In the battle of Zong Gechuan, Aligu made the Song army kill miserably. Seeing the Song army slowly retreating, he did not dare to pursue it. He just asked someone to quickly send the news to Gui Zhang.

Ghost Chapter couldn't help but speed up the itinerary.

But he received a good news. Because the terrain of Bajin Fort was dangerous, the Song army sent only Wei Qi to lead 500 troops to guard Bajin Fort. Hearing that Gui Zhang was about to send troops to come, some indigenous people in the city responded and cooperated. There was also a caravan from the Longbu tribe who pretended to surrender to the Song Dynasty and brought Yang, Baling and other tribes into Bajin Fort. As soon as Gui Zhang's scouts sneaked into Bajin Fort. After learning the news, they immediately contacted them. The tribe has been active between Qinzhou and Jiezhou. Because of the uncertain migration, they were not favored by the Song people. Therefore, in June, they colluded with the Daluo Sumu Jia tribe in Jiezhou to attack Fenfeng Taixiao Village and killed countless soldiers and civilians of the Song Dynasty. After the two sides came on the line, the caravan quickly gathered hundreds of people in the name of a merchant and secretly gathered at Bajin Fort.

Gui Zhang was not careless, and asked his other son, Jiewuzhu, to lead three thousand powerful troops to sneak into Bajin Castle.

Just at this time, Jing Siyi led the grain bribe team to the eastern part of Gu Miaochuan.

Gui Zhang personally led 10,000 troops to attack Gu Miaochuan. Not only him, but also an army. The tribe also sent out 5,000 strong soldiers to attack Gu Miaochuan from the northeast.

The Xixia army had not yet arrived at the city, and the Gu Miaochuan Battle began.
