At the banquet, singing, dancing and laughing, as if he didn't remember the embarrassment of the troops not long ago, countless soldiers outside the big tent were screaming and screaming.

Empress Dowager Liang cordially talked with the noble ministers such as the party and the Han, made wishes to various officials, and was even more cordial to the female dependents, pulling many people to talk.

I don't know how many people were flattered and surprised.

When the 'post-hunt banquet' was held in Western Xia, the Song army's offensive footsteps did not stop at all.

Zong Ze's Tiger Fear Army has broken through Hongzhou, attacked Youzhou, attacked the city all the way, and went straight to the Jianing Military Division.

And Chu You was relatively flat, and he barely encountered a big city along the way, and at this moment he was confronting the Xishou Baotai Military Division of Western Xia in Rouwolf Mountain.

His cavalry surrounded the Xiangyou Division, while the other part swept across the surrounding cities and isolated the Xiangyou Division.

When they were progressing well, the reinforcements of the Great Song Dynasty crossed the Song-Xia border one after another, and there was hardly much resistance along the way, but there were many people who surrendered.

Gyeongju.

This is the new intelligence center, where intelligence from all walks of life gathers every day.

Zhao Xu sat in charge in person, looking at the good news from all walks of life, and the smile on his face never decreased.

Zhang Ji's expression has always been calm, but he is a little uneasy in his heart.

They were going so well that he was worried that some of the generals would capsize in the gutter and turn the good things around him.

He looked at Zhao Xu, who was excited, and didn't say anything.

Zhao Xu looked at Zong Ze, the good news in the construction, nodded secretly, and said to Zhang Ji with a smile: "Zhang Xianggong, from Xiangyou to Jianing, and then to Yanzhou, if you can take it all the way, then everything is worry-free, and you can look forward to big things......"

Zhang Qi smiled and nodded.

In fact, Zhang Ji didn't know that this way was actually the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty!

Zhao Xu knew, looking at the map? Judging the situation? Thoughts swirled in my mind.

He didn't have the idea of building a new Great Wall, this kind of seeming resistance? In fact, the self-trapped behavior of drawing the ground as a prison? Zhao Xu hated it.

Zhao Xu continued to look at the map, Yanzhou to the northwest? It's Xingqing Mansion, and there are many cities around Xingqing Mansion? It is the most prosperous place in Western Xia.

Speaking of which? The reason why the Song army was so smooth was that in addition to the Western Xia's rampant conquest and reckless military force, was the Empress Dowager Liang who took most of the troops? It makes these places empty.

But one or two million people? With the rapid requisition and mobilization of 350,000 troops, the words 'reckless and reckless' are no longer enough to describe.

Zhao Xu looked at the map seriously, stared at the place where Xixia retreated and stayed, and said to himself: "I don't know if Zhe Keshi can make a contribution......

What was his idea? Frustrate as much as possible and consume the Western Xia troops? National strength, for peace time? so that he can complete the domestic reform.

But if the enemy is reckless, it is possible to take advantage of the strategic advantage that the Song Dynasty has achieved so far? Destroy them all!

Zhang Qi is also worried about this? said calmly: "The official family is relieved? Zhe Keshi has always been steady, not greedy for merit, and will not underestimate the enemy too much. ”

Zhao Xu glanced at him and hummed softly, unable to dispel the uneasiness in his heart, naturally, there was still a faint expectation in his heart.

The 'post-hunt banquet' of Western Xia was being held, and as the atmosphere spread, it seemed that everyone had forgotten about the defeat and began to drink and eat meat with joy, singing and dancing.

Less than fifty miles away, Zhi Keshi has been quietly following.

Zhe Keda took the scout cavalry and kept a close watch, and he was very unhappy when he saw the Western Xia army stopping, happily drinking and eating meat.

'It's obviously a defeated army, how can you be more comfortable and happy than them?' ’

Zhe Keda only brought a few hundred people, but if there were a little more, he couldn't help but rush in.

Zhi Keda did not act rashly, and hurriedly ordered someone to send it back to Zhi Keshi.

Waiting for the fold to receive the letter, and the middle of the seed master, face to face, this has just been defeated and retreated, and this is busy holding a banquet?

Mingrui in the seed master sensed something, leaned closer, and said in a low voice: "Zhe Shuai, this may be an opportunity." ”

Zhe Keshi pondered for a while and said, "You are ready, you big forward, I will be there later!" ”

The seed division brought 3,000 light cavalry, which was fast, and Zhi Keshi was an infantry, and he had to sneak.

"Yes." There was some excitement among the planters.

In the evening, Empress Dowager Liang drank a little too much, but she still pulled some people to talk, in addition to sealing the official and making wishes, but also to make practical arrangements to ensure that his power was guaranteed.

Li Qianshun is a complete outsider, and no one cares about him.

He hid in his big tent and couldn't even go out.

From time to time, military reports were sent from all over the country, all of which were in an emergency and asked for help.

However, the Empress Dowager Liang and the party leaders did not think so, they did not think that the Song army would occupy these places for a long time, this was the traditional territory of their Xia State, and the Song army was just a 'shallow attack and disturbing farming', or taking the opportunity to plunder, and would soon retreat.

Of course, they are also powerless to rescue, there are a total of 100,000 people left, and it is impossible to send them out to fight fires everywhere, and they have to defend Xingqing Mansion.

At this time, Empress Dowager Liang will never allow the military power in her hands to be in danger of getting out of control!

On the second day, the banquet continued.

If you want to calm the emotions of defeat, you can't do it in a day or two, but if you can appease these people outside the city and return to Xingqing Mansion, you can save a lot of effort.

Staggered and talkative.

Above the banquet, it was peaceful.

As the 'culprit' of the defeat in this battle, although the Empress Dowager Liang did not speak, after returning to Beijing, the two of them could not escape. Because of this, the two of them only appeared at the banquet occasionally, and most of the time, they were locked in a big tent, and they could not come and go at will.

Wei Ming's burial was silently drinking, sighing for a long time.

He is actually a capable general, but his ability is firmly bound, this battle, in his opinion, is not his fault at all, if it were not for the Empress Dowager Liang's insistence, it would not have become what it is now.

"That's it......," sighed. He was more than alone in the hands of the Empress Dowager Liang, and his family was locked up in another place, so he had no chance to struggle at all.

On the other side, the sister is not much better, as a prison army, he is also 'deeply responsible', and many people are already impeaching him, but now he is only beginning to try, according to the convention, once he returns to Beijing, he will be thrown into prison.

"I can't escape the ...... death"

Sister Le Du took a long breath, he knew very well that with such a big loss, if a few people didn't die, it would not be able to smooth out the Xingqing Mansion, and it would not be enough to take out the Empress Dowager Liang.

He and Wei Ming's burial must die!

Compared with them, Wei Ming Ahshan was a little 'flattered', because he won a battle, and the Empress Dowager Liang grabbed him, and almost everyone said that it covered up the fact of the rout.

The banquet after the hunt was held very successfully, and the Empress Dowager Liang calmed down the unstable force, plus she was a little drunk, and in the evening, she was helped into the big tent by two little eunuchs.

The other party items and Han nobles were even happier, and continued to drink in twos and threes, talking freely about their ambitions after returning to Beijing.

No one knew that at this time, the three thousand light horsemen in the seed division were not far away, and they were approaching rapidly in the night.
