"In any case, we must hold Xiping Mansion, let the whole army of Guli Black go south, and counterattack the Southern Dynasty." Brother Cha couldn't sit still, if he continued to fight like this, Great Xia would definitely be divided and fall into a situation where he couldn't support each other, so he put forward his own requirements.

It was difficult for Li Renxiao to come up with an opinion, the main force of the left wing of the Xia army hid in the east of Yanzhou to fight, and even the most effective troops in the right wing also went to Yanzhou to fight, and the other main forces of the right wing either could not be transferred, or were pinned down by Shao Xing in Xiliang.

According to the news from Hexi, even Renduoquan City was also occupied, which was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there was only one gate to close the city, which was actually taken down by the Song army, that is, the Song army could pass through the Guò Longyou capital to protect the jurisdiction, directly cross the Qilian Mountain pass, and provide close support to Liangzhou, without the need to advance westward from Lanzhou.

In addition to the tens of thousands of regular soldiers around Xingqing, looking at the entire family and country, they fell into the embarrassing situation of having no soldiers to adjust.

"Your Majesty, if the Southern Dynasty wants to gain a firm foothold in Xiping, they are likely to counterattack Yanzhou." Brother Cha made another judgment, which was not accurate but very different.

"They don't have this ability yet, and there are not many horses in this army, so they can't pose a threat to Yanzhou." Ren Dejing raised objections, the Song army used a considerable number of horse troops on the baggage transfer road, but the main force did not show the strength of the horse army, so he thought that it was not a matter of concern, relying on a small number of horse troops and infantry troops to attack, it was a joke.

"Let's stop resting first, hurry south to support, and have Lao Renqing's family to share their worries, quickly transfer troops south to meet the battle, and turn 20,000 burdens into regular soldiers." Li Renxiao didn't want to think too far, Xiping Mansion was lost, and everything was in vain.

Brother Cha nodded, and did not refute Li Renxiao, the Song army arrived in Xiping Mansion, and it was only right that the black-skinned Ma army went south.

In fact, when the Song army arrived in Xipingfu, that is, one army entered the city for more than 20 miles, and other troops were still stationed on the periphery. Fighting a war is not that you say you will fight, and if you see a city, you will besiege it, without a five-fold manpower advantage, you don't want to storm a big city, and if you don't have a tenfold advantage, don't talk about ant-attached sieges.

Besides, most of the so-called important strongholds on the periphery of Xiping Mansion have not been taken, and if you concentrate the whole army on the city to attack, it will be simply looking for death. The Song army is an expert in attacking and defending the city, so it is natural not to make low-level mistakes, not to mention that the will is not here.

More than 150 miles east of Yaode City, which is already regarded as the western boundary of Yanzhou, the edge of Hanhai, a horse team of thousands of people galloped through, divided into a team of several hundred people to attack the town, and other horse armies fanned out, forming a situation of encirclement.

It was a small town in the western part of Yanzhou, and the arrival of some fleeing residents due to the war in the east made the town even more chaotic. Today, it is the trade day of the market, and the herdsmen in the desert have gathered, and they need to buy firewood, rice, oil, and salt from the town.

The only street in the town was potholed, crowded with bustling crowds, shouting and haggling, and occasional shouts and curses rising and falling from each other, it was already spring, and the weather was still cold.

While the people were busy, the horse army of thousands of people completed the siege of the town, and the hundreds of horses slowly galloped into the town.

This unit did not have a flag with a special national name, nor did it wear the costume that showed the Xia army, and slowly reached the streets of the town under the surprised eyes of the people.

Before the people could react, hundreds of cavalrymen suddenly burst out to kill, and then there was a burst of indiscriminate killing, and then people realized that it was not good, and they all shouted and ran for their lives.

The town, which was still bustling and very lively just now, suddenly fell into a bloody storm, and hundreds of cavalry killed and cut down every person they saw, as long as no one was spared by their blades.

Chen Gao, Suo Shen, and Yang Huiping had red eyes, and their faces were fierce and rushed to the front of the team, they didn't know how many people they had killed, and their only thought now was to kill them all.

Although they did not want to kill the living people on a large scale, they knew that it was necessary, and that every tribe they passed, every shepherd they met, they would be exterminated, even children.

Soon, the whole town was full of blood and corpses, and when the herdsmen who survived were scattered in panic, they thought they could escape, but they did not think that there was still a fierce horse army outside, and what was waiting for them was cold arrows.

Women and children are not left, and the land is cruel and unkind.

When the whole town fell into the silence after the killing, the main force of the team set out on the journey again, stirring up the dust and dust to leave, leaving the hundreds of people who had entered the town to rest by a small spring next to the town.

A small number of people dispersed their guards, and the rest dismounted and rushed to the spring, drinking water in silence, washing themselves and their horses from the dust, and some took out dry food and munched on the water.

Chen Gao, Suo Shen, and Yang Huiping came to a general with a dusty face and a leather armor, they didn't speak, just waited quietly.

The general turned around and looked at the three of them with sharp eyes, and treated them the same way. If Feng Yuan was here, he would definitely recognize that this person was Qiu Yun.

With a cold face, eyes that exude endless murderous intent, and a face full of whiskers, revealing a thick tiredness, this is Qiu Yun at this time.

He was sent to the Western Army to join the Guangrui Army and served as the deputy commander of the Ma Military Battalion, but he was only responsible for some miscellaneous duties, and did not actually take charge.

Because the Song army was preparing for a secret surprise attack on Yanzhou, Zhang Sheng organized the criminals and trained a prison horse barracks, and he also entered the field of vision.

After a short period of contact, he decided to take part in this decisive counterattack, became the battalion commander of this army, and controlled 400 prisoners of all colors. Unexpectedly, Chen Gao also came to the West Servant Army and was trained into this army.

It turned out that Chen Gao, Suo Shen, and Yang Huiping did not die, but were sent to the front line, and their identities were reduced to utility, and even the killing rod was raised high, and it fell gently without even shedding a drop of blood.

The way they were dealt with was open, and Wang Xiu also showed a very strong attitude, openly stating to Zhang Tonggu that since he did not kill the other party, it was an attempted murder, and he should not be beheaded immediately, but sent to the border army to serve and die.

Zhang Tonggu was furious, but he had no way, and he was helpless in the face of Wang Xiu's strong sophistry.

The scholars praised the punishment results, for no other reason, Wang Xiu punished several young people with appropriate benefits, that is, to retain the face of ****, and to severely suppress the arrogance of the generals, which played a role in killing chickens and monkeys.

The literati are not angry, but they are fighting for face, they also have no good impression of the generals, if they were in normal times, they would have beheaded three red guys a long time ago, they don't care about your palace handsome nephew, Wang Xianggong's doorman.
