Yang Yingqi and Ouyang Shiyuan were in Tanggu, but the intelligence system built by them was widespread in all departments of the Han army, and of course there were very capable intelligence officers in the Mobei Expeditionary Army, who cooperated with the victory of the Han army and gradually infiltrated various regions and tribes in Mobei, especially in the regions close to Western Xia and Yunzhong, and carried out intelligence interference before achieving a comprehensive victory. Most of the spies sent by Qianshun and Zonghan were unable to enter the core area of Mobei smoothly due to the interference of the Han army's intelligence work, or could not transmit the news back after entering.

Of course, Mobei is 5,000 miles wide, and the intelligence officers of the Han army cannot achieve a complete information blockade, so they used the old methods that have been tried and tested in the Central Plains since a few years ago: distributing fake news, fake news mixed with real news, true news mixed with fake news, true and false, false and true, so that Qianshun and Zong Han could not distinguish between truth and falsehood after receiving information.

Despite this, as long as the news from Mobei included that Zhi Yanchong had won a complete victory, it already made Qianshun worried, and he immediately issued an order after hearing this "inaccurate" rumor, asking Brother Wei Mingcha to shrink the front and be ready to deal with the unforeseen situation in the direction of Mobei at any time. But after the order was issued, the fighting on the Hanxia front became more and more intense! The Western Xia army even invaded near Weishui again, and the monarch of Zhongxing Mansion was secretly annoyed when he saw that the front-line soldiers were greedy for merit and reckless, regardless of the overall situation, but they didn't know that Brother Wei Mingcha was actually suffering and couldn't say it!

Since the Great Song Dynasty officially withdrew from the encirclement of the Han Dynasty, Weinan not only quickly restored stability, but also expanded border trade again. Benefiting from the trade of the Song Bianchang, the military expenditure in the northwest increased a lot compared with the early stage of the war, coupled with the Zhongwu army as a backup, Liu Qi became more bold when he started the war, and the famous Chage became more and more tightly entangled, the Hanxia army fought in the tug of war on the border, and the famous Chage could not enter, and Liu Qi was unwilling to stop the war, and when Yang Yingqi sent the good news of Mobei, Liu Qi was even more confident, convened the most core generals and border ministers, and issued an order to drag the main force of the Western Xia Army in the territory at all costs, so as to cooperate with the attack of Mobei!

In August 1684, Huma began to appear on Yinshan North Road - Huma holding the flag of the Han army!

Pedal, pedal, kick - the day after Jin Xia's joint defense forces near Yinshan found out the news, 60,000 Hu cavalry appeared in front of them!

There was almost no contact with the outpost scouts, and the Han army seemed to have broken in without finding out the military deployment of Jin Xia in this area! How bold that is! How fast!

Who developed this seemingly reckless strategy? It's Xiao Tienu! He didn't seem to be afraid that the Han army would be fiercely resisted, and his order was only one word: Hurry!

At this moment, the strength of the Han army from the north and south of the desert is terrifyingly strong, whether it is the elite of the Hu people who have invaded the Han land for thousands of years, or the Xiao Ziqi that gathers the strengths of both the Hu and the Han, it can be called one of the most powerful military forces in the world! What's more, behind these two legions, there is also the Orihiko Chong lineage legion who is excellent in infantry and cavalry and has unparalleled comprehensive strength, which is responsible for the overall dispatch and support from all directions! Although Zhi Yanchong left part of his forces in Mobei, the 300,000 troops mobilized south at this time, not to mention the combined forces of Qianshun and Zong Han, even if Cao Guangbi, Yang Kaiyuan, Quduan, Liu Qi and other Han armies were united, they might not be able to win, not to mention that the main force of Western Xia was still being dragged by Liu Qi in Weibei, and Zong Han's main force was contained by Yang Kaiyuan and Quduan respectively in Yanmen Pass and Juyong Pass.

Xiao Tienu saw that Jin Xia transferred the main force to the southern front and did not have enough strength to resist the Han army's single blow, so he formulated this general strategy of winning quickly!

The first Jinxia joint defense force stronghold to discover this situation was only 3,000 people, how could it dare to resist with an army of 60,000? Seeing the overwhelming dust, he withdrew overnight.

Ren Dejing led the vanguard of 10,000 people in hot pursuit, and 2,000 of the retreating 3,000 people were caught up and eaten all of them halfway, and the remaining 1,000 fled without rest to a stronghold 200 miles away, which had 5,000 men. But the next day Ren Dejing arrived, and as soon as he arrived, he launched a fierce attack. The Han army was pursuing the victory, but the Jinxia joint defense army was not well prepared, and the number, combat effectiveness and morale of the soldiers were all down, and Ren Dejing broke through the camp that night. The next day, reinforcements arrived, and Ren continued to chase westward despite his weariness.

After eating this stronghold, further west it will not be the area of the Jinxia joint defense, but the territory of the Xia army. Eilechuan is the place where Xiao Ziqi has been active for several years, and the familiarity of the generals in the army with this area is even higher than that of the new master, Xia Jun! There is a guide group who knows the geography of the Hetao well, and Ren Dejing is not afraid of being ambushed by the Xia people.

Advance! Advance! Attack! Attack! Victory! Victory!

In this way, the Han army ate the large and small strongholds of the Xia people one by one, and it took only five days to arrive at the largest garrison of the Xia army in the Eilechuan - Yunnei Battalion, which had a total of 30,000 soldiers and horses at this time, but these 30,000 people were not all elite who could fight against Ren Dejing's 10,000 cavalry. Therefore, when Ren Dejing led 8,000 Hu Han cavalry to rush to the vicinity of the Yunnei camp, Xia Jiang did his best to attack the whole battalion but did not take any advantage! The first battle was unfavorable, and General Xia did not dare to make a mistake, so while sticking to the camp, he urgently sent people to Zhongxing Mansion and Weibei to ask for help. But the next day, he discovered a terrifying fact: Ren Dejing's thousands of powerful cavalry were not the main force of the Han army, but only the vanguard!

On the third day, there were 30,000 Han troops who arrived outside the Yunnei camp! On the fourth day, 40,000! On the fifth day, 60,000! The army in front of them has only gained a firm foothold, and smoke and dust are rolling in behind! Xia Ren realized that he was very wrong!

"Could it be that the Han army that tied with us on the first day is just the vanguard of the vanguard?"

Eilechuan was originally a place where Xiao Tienu was stationed, and the Xia people had very shallow roots here. At this moment, the disparity in strength of the Han Xia was obvious, and the local tribes and merchants saw the wind and the rudder, and they all fell to the Han army, providing grain and grass for the Han army on the one hand, and inquiring about the military situation for the Han army on the other. Under the advantages of the other, the strength of the Han and Xia sides in the clouds showed a world of difference in just a few days. The Xia people saw several layers of encirclement inside and outside the camp, and they were all bold.

Xiao Tienu arrived when the Han army had gathered 60,000 men outside the Yunnei camp, and the day after he arrived, he announced a general attack. Seeing that it was difficult to hold on, the commander of the Yunnei battalion led the crowd to break through. Xiao Tienu surrounded three and one and intercepted four adult horses. Ren Dejing led the 10,000 cavalry with full horsepower to chase the north again, breaking through the camps of the Xia people in Yunnei and Tiande one by one, and crossing Muna Mountain and Wuliang Suhai. In the city of Wurahai on the edge of the Yellow River, the Xia people once again gathered 35,000 people to meet them, but they were defeated by Ren Dejing.

After this battle, there was no longer a stronghold with more than 20,000 troops from Munashan to Zhongxingfu, the capital of Western Xia. Xiao Tienu sat in the town of Eilechuan, transferred about 20,000 Han soldiers from the three roads to collect Heqing and Jinsu, and the target was northern Shaanxi, intending to contact Liu Qi, and transferred the five Hu cavalry to attack and harass all the way, chasing the retreating military horses of Western Xia, and the target was Zhongxingfu, the capital of Western Xia!

The fierceness of the Han army, the speed of Xiao Tienu's march, and the frequency of the Xia army's routs were still unexpected! Starting from the alarm in Yinshan, it was shocked three times a day, and when the Wurahai City was defeated, the entire Zhongxing Mansion seemed to explode! Whether it was Liao, Song, or Jin, no major power had ever used such a powerful military force to attack Western Xia from this route! What's even worse is that Western Xia's defense on this road has never been as weak as it is today! There was still some distance between the vanguard of the Han army and Zhongxing Mansion, but both Qianshun and Wei Ming Renzhong understood that there was no army between the Han army and the capital that was strong enough to resist Xiao Tienu! It was inevitable that the capital would be attacked, and the only thing in doubt now was the time of the arrival of the Han army - the Han army was going down the Yellow River, and this section of the road was not easy to walk, and there were no supplies along the way, so the Xia people still had a little time.

"Your Majesty! Let's move the capital! ”

There are already ministers in the Western Xia court who have handed over the recital! And the folk already have the grass on the wall and fled first. Helan Mountain is in the northwest, and although the Yellow River is wide, it is not enough to resist Xiao Tienu!

But where is the capital moving? There is no better capital city than Zhongxing Mansion on the Ningxia Plain, and if you move out of the Ningxia Plain, it is equivalent to giving up the foundation of the Western Xia! Today's Western Xia is no longer the Western Xia of Li Yuanhao's era, the proportion of agricultural economy has far exceeded the nomadic economy, and the importance of peasant soldiers is no longer under the nomadic tribe soldiers! What's more, Qianshun is already a monarch in a city and a palace, not a leader in the desert and on horseback! If the Ningxia Plain is abandoned, then Qianshun's position as the lord of the Xia people will also be shaken! The Qianshun era, which admired Buddhism and Confucianism, could no longer return to the era of Li Yuanhao.

"Guard!"

Qianshun gritted his teeth, while sending Wei Mingrenli to Hanying to sue for peace with a groveling letter of state, and at the same time urgently transferred the Xiping Military Division in the northwest, the Gansu Military Division and various tribes to rush into the aid of Zhongxing Mansion, and Qianshun even sent people to the southwest to borrow troops from the Tubo tribes! Of course, what is more important is the main force of Western Xia led by Brother Mingcha! If Brother Wei Ming Chage can reach it smoothly and fight against the city with his local advantage, then Western Xia may still have a chance. At this time, Qianshun no longer wanted to get benefits from Shaanxi and Qin Feng of the Han Dynasty, and he didn't even care that the southeast border would be encroached upon.

After the envoys sent by Zhongxingfu arrived in Ganzhou, they successfully recruited the soldiers and horses of the Gansu Military Division to march eastward. This envoy continued to march west, and wanted to give orders to the Xiping Military Division, but there was an accident halfway through!

That night, when he came to Jiayuguan, it was late, and he didn't pay attention to the banner on the pass, so he showed the envoy token to open the city. When the soldiers at the head of the city heard the news, they hurried to report it, and the messenger waited impatiently, so he looked up and looked closely, and suddenly felt that the flag at the head of the city seemed to be a little strange in the dim yellow firelight, and before he could figure out what was going on, there was a cannon fire at the head of the city, the city gate was opened, and two teams of cavalry rushed out, followed by two teams of camel soldiers, followed by two teams of elite infantry. 1,200 torches fluttered in the dark night, shining brightly under Jiayu Pass! Only then did the messenger see that the infantry was fighting the banner of the Han army, but the camel soldiers were dressed in Uighur clothes, and they were so frightened that they rolled off their horses.

After the envoy of Western Xia was surrounded, there was a sound in the pass, and immediately a general with an iron hook in his right hand rode out of the pass, which was a kind of disease. The envoy of Western Xia had already been subdued by the Han army, and a guard handed the collected documents to Chong to go sick. He quickly glanced at it under the torch and said with a smile: "Zhongxing Mansion is in a hurry, hehe, I didn't expect Xiao Shuai to take the lead." ”

Tuoshu, who came with the army as a staff officer, stepped forward and said, "Then let's hurry up and meet the division." ”

He glanced at the Xixia envoy and said: "It seems that the Xia people are in chaos, this envoy actually knocked on the door in front of the pass, and most of the people in front of him didn't know that the Xiping Military Division had been wiped out." We also waved the banner of the Xiping Military Division, put on their clothes, took the edict of Qianshun, pretended to be reinforcements, and walked slowly all the way, waiting for the troops from the military divisions to set off to receive the city. First take Ganzhou Xuanhua Mansion, and then take Liangzhou Xiliang Mansion. As long as the Longyou Silk Road is broken, the Xia people will not be able to turn over once they are defeated in Zhongxing Mansion. As for the great achievement of reaching the city of Zhongxingfu first, we are afraid that we will not be able to rob the brothers on the east road. ”
