Chapter 907: Before the War
Xingqing Mansion in Western Xia, the capital of Western Xia, has inadvertently become the focus, which affects everyone's hearts, and the Xixia people are a little blind for a while, the two emperors of the Great Song and Liao Dynasty are going to marry their own queen mothers, what is so good about this queen mother?
There is never a shortage of smart people among the people, and soon a news spread among the Tangut people, the reason why the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty competed to marry the empress dowager of the Tangut Dynasty was because whoever married her could include the Tangut in the country!
Yes! The Western Xia people were not stupid, they guessed some truths from the urgency of the Liao Dynasty, but they didn't know that the Liao Dynasty brought them not only support, but also war.
There was a different voice in the court of Western Xia, some people thought that this was the last chance of Western Xia, if it could join forces with the Liao Dynasty, Western Xia was likely to defeat the Great Song Dynasty, and the 100,000 Liao soldiers outside the city were the last straw for Western Xia.
The Wenchens who originally had the same caliber also split, some supported the surrender of the Song Dynasty, and some supported the surrender of the Liao, but in the view of Wuzang Heiyun, these people were the same regardless of the surrender of the Song Dynasty and the Liao, and they all hoped that when they entered the Great Song Dynasty or the Liao Dynasty in the future, they would prove to their emperor that they supported the surrender, and they wanted to benefit from it.
The buzzing court was a little chaotic, making people irritated and wanting to leave, the black cloud behind the bead curtain frowned, and the son sitting on the throne in front of him had begun to cry as if he couldn't stand the faces of these courtiers, and these courtiers didn't mean to stop, constantly arguing about who to surrender.
In these arguments, Heiyun felt a kind of humiliation, she was like a commodity, whichever side gave her more generous conditions, she should marry whichever side she had never felt before, but now it was like a steel needle constantly stimulating her.
Whether it is the Liao Dynasty or the Great Song Dynasty, they have to go to a country, but don't these courtiers consider their own ideas? How can he marry the emperor of the Liao Dynasty, this Yelu Hongji is just a teenager, even if he is the emperor of the Liao Dynasty, he is far from himself in terms of generation and name.
If you marry the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, then everything is reasonable, but if you marry the Liao Emperor, you will not be laughed at by the whole world? Thinking of the helplessness of being poked in the backbone, I didn't hide the black cloud and was depressed.
In terms of strength, it is much better to choose the Great Song Dynasty than to choose the Liao Dynasty, at least her reputation is not bad in the Great Song Dynasty, Chen Tong told her that even in the court of the Great Song Dynasty, many courtiers are very appreciative of their attachment to the Great Song Dynasty, and some people have already called her the female Zhong Yao Shun, which is a very high evaluation for women.
Although she did not hide the black cloud and had made up her mind to lead the Western Xia to join the Great Song Dynasty, she had no way to directly refuse the Liao Dynasty at this time, although the Liao Dynasty was not as strong as the Great Song Dynasty, but the anger was still not something that the Western Xia could bear, and she was worried that once the Liao Dynasty became hostile, the Song people were likely to stand by and watch, watching the Liao people attack Xingqing Mansion, and the situation in front of them could be described as a wrong step.
Since this is the case, then don't take a step, there is no hidden black cloud to let the Liao Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty attack each other, at this time the Western Xia can not fall to either side, just obey the last strong man, of course, she hopes that Zhao Zhen will win the final victory.
What are you doing this yourself? It's not for a better life yet! Only by marrying the Great Song Dynasty can she get the life she wants......
Got up from behind the bead curtain, didn't hide the black cloud and picked up the crying son, such a young child sat on this high throne is happy: "You don't have to argue, I just need to wait and see what happens, if the Liao people win, what is the point of belonging to the Song people?" If the Song people win, it is impossible to join the Liao people! Passing on the will of the palace, my Great Xia soldiers can only stick to the capital city, and must not provoke and attack. ”
With the words of not hiding the black clouds, the quarrel in the hall stopped, it is true, if you choose it now, it will be disadvantageous to Daxia, and it will also be unfavorable to yourself, if you stand on the wrong team, the future will not be easy, right?
The originally loose city defense of Xingqing Mansion began to become tighter, and a large number of soldiers appeared on the city wall again, and the open city gate was closed again, ready for defense, because at this time the atmosphere outside the city was already on the verge of breaking out.
The emperors of the Song and Liao countries drove the expedition in person, and the soldiers and horses of both sides had already set up their positions, and the war was about to break out!
Zhao Zhen stood in the tent of the military array, constantly listening to the scout's report, but compared to his nervousness and seriousness, Di Qing seemed very calm, Zhao Zhen had asked him several times about the grasp of the battle of Song Liao, but Di Qing didn't say anything, but from his expression, it could be seen that the victory of the Great Song Dynasty was in sight.
"Report ...... Qi Di Shuai, Qianniu Wei parade Hu Tieyuan has an urgent military situation to present to His Majesty! ”
Although Zhao Zhen is the king of a country, he is not the boss in this White Tiger Festival, this is a rule he set early on, in order for the emperor not to interfere with the boss's decision, all the reports are concentrated on the boss alone.
Di Qing's eyes lit up and he nodded, "Come in!" Official, this Qianniuwei came in time, and His Majesty was impressed by the enemy's ability to take the lead! ”
Zhao Zhen's old face flushed, where is this his own opportunity to anticipate the enemy, it is simply clever, let Qianniuwei follow the Liao army, just let Zhao Li find the right time, when the Liao people and the Western Xia people are in full swing, take a cold breath to the Liao people, who knows that it can come in handy at this time.
Outside the White Tiger Festival Hall, a knight broke in, his armor was full of dust, and his eyes were bloodshot, Hu Tieyuan didn't have time to tidy up his appearance, so he stepped forward and knelt down on one knee and said: "Qi Guanjia, I Qianniuwei and the Liao Army are camped six miles northeast, just waiting for the official to call!" ”
Zhao Zhen smiled and took out half of the bull-shaped tiger talisman from his arms, stretched out his hand and handed it to Di Qing and said: "At this moment, Di Qing is the commander-in-chief, and you will be transferred according to the order to cooperate with the army to attack the Liao." ”
Hu Tieyuan hugged his fists and said: "Only! He turned to Di Qing and said, "Qianniuwei can listen to Di Shuai's dispatch at any time!" ”
Di Qing nodded and turned to Yutu, reached out and took a pole and pointed to Yutu and explained to Zhao Zhen: "Official, please look, at this time, the Liao army crossed the Dingzhou City of Western Xia and went straight to Xingqing Mansion, in order to prevent the marriage between Western Xia and my Great Song Dynasty, the main force of the Liao army is stationed in the north of Xingqing Mansion, the south of Dingzhou City is Laishuiyuan, and the side is the Tanglai River, and Qianniuwei is the closest to Dingzhou City at this time, if they can take Dingzhou City, as a basis, cut off the retreat of the Liao people, the Liao army will be in turmoil!" ”
Zhao Zhen looked at the map and turned his head to confirm to Hu Tieyuan: "How far is Qianniuwei from Dingzhou City?" Can I arrive in half a day? ”
"Back to the official's house, Qianniuwei only needs three minutes to arrive outside Dingzhou City, but the army is flexible and changeable, and does not come with the needs of the siege, but the gunpowder bullet is enough, if necessary, Qianniuwei can take Dingzhou City within three days!"
The siege battle is already difficult, and Qianniuwei has no artillery assistance, so he can only rely on hard fighting, three days is already a considerable result, Di Qing high-fived and said: "Okay, if we can take Dingzhou City within three days, our army can go straight to the Liao army and defeat the Liao people!" ”
Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "Then according to this, three days later, no matter what the battle situation in Dingzhou is, the army will fight with the Liao people outside the city of Xingqing Mansion!" ”
The generals replied, "Only! ”
