Zhang Qi looked at the location where Zhao Xu was tapping, which was where the Xia army's camp was located.

Zhang Qi's expression was heavy.

According to custom, since the enemy has withdrawn, then they have won, there is no need to chase after them, go deep into the enemy's hinterland, and if you are not careful, the tide of battle may be reversed and the good situation will be lost.

Zhao Xu glanced at him and said, "I have already sent a secret letter to him, and I have ordered him to choose an opportunity to fight, and I can't let the Xia army retreat." The other armies, except for the existing goals, everything that can be reached will be defeated by me! ”

Zhang Qi still groaned.

Originally, Zhao Xu's plot was big enough, if he took away all the good places of the Xia people and drove them into the desert, the Xia people would definitely go crazy!

Zhao Xu's expression was calm, and seeing that Zhang Qi didn't speak, he waved his hand directly, and said in a deep voice: "That's it." In addition, the combat thinking of our Great Song Dynasty must be changed, we must not be trapped, we must take the initiative to attack, and the battlefield should not be within the territory of our Great Song Dynasty, which is written in the training manual, and all soldiers must keep it in mind! ”

Zhang Ji was actually calculating the battle situation in his heart, thinking that he was not a reckless person, so he was somewhat relieved, and raised his hand and said: "Minister, follow Your Majesty's holy teachings." ”

Zhao Xu nodded slightly, looked at Chen Pi, and said, "Spread the word, Hedong Road has entered the first-level combat readiness, Qingtianwei, and the Imperial City Division are keeping an eye on the Liao." Spread the word to the armies? What am I referring to by Song Bingfeng? I am the homeland of the Great Song Dynasty, and I must not give in easily! ”

"The villain leads the way." Chen Pi said? Hurry out.

Zhang Qi stopped talking.

This battle has been fought until now? The victory of the Great Song Dynasty has been decided, now? It depends on the final result.

But the war is not difficult to decide everything, after the fight? Is it the point of the wrestling between the two sides? The final result will also be determined after the wrestling!

Zhao Xu stared at the map, and also knew in his heart that the war was for politics, even if it was to fight the Western Xia back? Negotiations later? Find the right balance to secure the biggest results!

Zhao Xu thought in his heart that the negotiations after the war would depend on how painful it would be for Zhe Keshi and others to beat Xixia.

The Great Song side had already begun to calculate that after the war, the withdrawal of Western Xia troops would proceed as usual.

Midnight? Seeing that the Song army did not move, he did not attack the camp? Still disappointed in his heart, he sighed lightly: "It's a pity." ”

The same is true for Mei Le Du Kui? Said: "If the Song army attacks the camp and falls into our trap? The battle is not so ugly. Song people? It's too cunning. ”

The Song people didn't attack the camp? The only chance for Western Xia to regain any face was gone, so he could only withdraw his troops in such a gloomy manner.

"Let's go."

Wei Ming's burial is very decisive, he is worried that if it continues, it will change later.

Mei Le Du nodded and ordered the ambushed soldiers to be withdrawn, and after the arrangement was broken, the army retreated in an orderly manner.

Walking in the forefront, of course, is the Empress Dowager Liang, Li Qianshun, and a cadre of party nobles and family members.

Empress Dowager Liang sat in the carriage, holding her forehead with one hand, her face was calm, and she was thinking about the aftermath.

Two defeats undermined his prestige, and he had to take further control of the court and stabilize her power.

Raising his eyes to look at Li Qianshun beside him, he was slightly relieved to see him nodding and dozing off.

Ashan was riding a horse, guarding the side, and his expression was very silent.

Such a fiasco, they really have never had it in Great Xia.

And in the middle, there were the wounded soldiers of Western Xia, and the wounded soldiers, ranging in severity and severity, were as high as 60,000 people!

Many people shouted, and from time to time someone shouted, and someone carried it and it was gone.

They could not take the body away, so they had to find a place to bury it nearby.

Dozens of people died in just a few miles.

The atmosphere of Xia Jun, in the middle of the night, was cold and sad.

The name is buried, and the sister is riding the road, speechless all the way.

On the Song Army's side, the spies who had been staring at the Xia Army's camp came to report from time to time.

Zhi Keshi listened, stood up violently, and immediately made a decision, saying: "Chongpu, you lead 5,000 people to the west, converge Xihe Road, and take Zhuo Luo City!" Wang En, you are stationed in the Great Wall Ridge to support Zong Ze and Chu You. Then he ordered the construction of the plant, accelerated the activities near Youzhou, and responded to Chu You and others. Among the planters, your cavalry, prepare for me and attack with me. ”

"The last general commands!"

The crowd couldn't wait for a long time, and immediately responded in a deep voice.

With the order of Zhi Keshi, the 60,000 army quickly divided into three routes and crossed the Song-Xia border, each with its own goal.

Zhe Keshi took the seed division, Guo Cheng, who converged with Pingxia City, and followed the Western Xia army directly.

The retreating army of Western Xia was not in a hurry, and until dawn, the speed was still not in a hurry.

Empress Dowager Liang sat in the carriage, as if tired, and asked the army to stop and rest.

Wei Ming's name is buried, and her sister Le Duqi stands in front of the Empress Dowager Liang, watching the Empress Dowager Liang and Li Qianshun have dinner.

Even at this time, Empress Dowager Liang's meal was still exquisite, with eighteen dishes, fragrant and fragrant.

Wei Ming's name is buried, and my sister is not the slightest bit unusual, and she has no appetite.

Empress Dowager Liang lost her appetite after eating a few bites, glanced at the two of them, and said without being salty or light: "I heard that the palace is still disturbing the Song army?" ”

"The Song people have been carrying out the so-called 'shallow attack and disturbance farming' since last year, and seeing that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, they will soon withdraw their troops. ”

Wei Ming Ah Bury, Wei Ming Ah Shan and others did not speak, Li Qianshun looked indifferent, as if he didn't hear, and sat still.

Empress Dowager Liang nodded, and then said with a smile: "Okay, another hundred miles, it will not be far from Xiping Mansion, you can pause and rest, and hold a ...... Post-Hunt Banquet. ”

The so-called 'post-hunt banquet' is usually held after a big victory, and Empress Dowager Liang is a swollen face and a fat man.

Li Qianshun glanced at her and didn't say much, knowing that Empress Dowager Liang wanted to take the opportunity to heal the impact of defeat and rebuild his authority.

Wei Ming is buried, and Mei Le Du has no opinion, it is good to be able to appease the army, the two of them thought so in their hearts.

So, after a short stop, the Western Xia army continued to return north.

Xiping Mansion is the gateway to Xingqing Mansion, and when they arrive near Xiping Mansion, they are equivalent to going home and safe.

Xia Jun's movements were all under the surveillance of the Song army.

Zhe Keshi led the army to follow, trying his best to hide.

At noon the next day, Zhi Keda came back from the front and whispered in Zhi Keshi's ear: "The movements of the Xia army are very slow, and it seems that they are not afraid of our pursuit, and even the men and horses after the break have withdrawn." ”

Zhe Keshi was not surprised at all, and glanced at the seed master, and his eldest brother Zhi Ke Dao: "Keep staring, they have just withdrawn their troops, and they will not be too relaxed." ”

"Yes." Fold it and walk away quickly.

Zhi Keshi looked pensive, and then said to the seed master: "Your cavalry must be ready. ”

"Yes!" Compared with the wood in the planting, the planting master is more calm and powerful.

Zhi Keshi looked up and said, "Continue to lurk and sneak." ”

As a result, the 20,000 Song troops led by Zhe Keshi continued to sneak in a low-key manner, without revealing anything.

The Western Xia was unaware of this, and after another day, the Empress Dowager Liang seemed to feel that she had arrived in a good place, and directly ordered the army to be stopped and prepare for the 'post-hunt banquet'.

The civil and military ministers who came with the army in Western Xia plus their family members were full of 3,000 people, and at this moment, the family members all smiled, and the civil and military ministers were also relieved.

Far from the war, it is their stage.
