Chapter 766: The Fear of Disobeying Orders Remains (First Update)
Chapter 766
Damn, the typical cheap and obedient, Wang Yang was very disdainful in his heart towards the sanctimonious planter Dao in his heart and gestured his middle finger, on the surface of course, he looked grateful, and expressed a high degree of praise for the spirit of the planter's family, country and world.
"The lower officials are here, in addition to the above two things, there is still one thing to ask for. Wang is ready to leave for Youzhou. ”
"Youzhou are you going? No, no, no. By all means, Lord Xiao Wang, if the Liao State invades the border on a large scale, the land of Youzhou will definitely become a must-fight place. The planter shook his head without thinking about it.
"Wang, as a pacification envoy of the Sanzhou Economic Strategy, can not ignore the soldiers in danger at such a time. The important thing is that after nearly half a year of maintenance and reinforcement, Youzhou has already become an insurmountable and solid fortress, and with the help of the two adults, it can be described as impregnable. ”
"This time, Wang is going to transfer 5,000 border troops from Yanzhou to advance, and among the 10,000 border troops originally stationed in Yanzhou, the other 5,000 border troops will rush to the new Yanzhou to station......" Wang Yang smiled calmly, standing in front of the map and pointing out the country.
"Isn't the land of Yanzhou unguarded?!" Master Su stood up directly, looking a little anxious.
"Of course not, Wang left 15,000 troops to garrison Yanzhou, not to mention, with the promise of a general, when the time comes, General will lead 5,000 soldiers to enter Yanzhou, and Yanzhou, which was originally in the rear of the new Yanzhou, should be worry-free......"
"You mean, Xinyanzhou and Baishicheng are two places to resist the Western Xia, while Youzhou and Hongzhou are mainly responsible for fighting against the Liao army?" Seed Master Dao looked at the map in front of him, and soon understood Wang Yang's intentions.
"Yes, now, nearly 30,000 pairs of paper armor have been made, all of which have been shipped to Youzhou, if there are two more sets of Yuanyou armor promised by the two adults, and 5,000 Yuanyou crossbows, Wang is confident that this rock-solid Youzhou will be guarded for more than a month."
For Wang Yang's insistence, the two persuaded for a long time to no avail, so they had to give up, but then again, if everything develops according to Wang's inference, Youzhou is indeed the most important military town and stronghold.
If Youzhou is not broken, the Liao army will not dare to go south easily. As for the Western Xia army in Xingqing Prefecture, as well as the Western Xia army in the Yinxia Prefectures. All of them were defeated by the Great Song Dynasty's subordinates, and their morale was greatly reduced under the successive losses of the generals, as long as they could adhere to the city defense and block Baishi City and Xinyanzhou.
As far as the Western Xia army in Xingqing Mansion is concerned, there is nothing to worry about. In the east, as long as they can stick to Youzhou, and the ancient city of Wuyan and Hongzhou after the repair and reinforcement, whether it is the Liao army or the soldiers and horses of the Western Xia Yinxia, they will never dare to go south easily, and it will easily become deep behind the enemy and enter the urn.
In the early summer of April in the tenth year of Yuanyou, Yelu and Lu Wei were the commanders, Xiao Shen was the supervising envoy, with 60,000 Liao cavalry as the central army, and 150,000 soldiers and horses of various tribes as the vanguard, the Liao army finally passed through the southwest side of the Xijing Road of the Liao State, crossed the river through the Tiande Army, and set foot on the west bank of the Yellow River, and from here to the southeast, it will arrive at the Heqing army garrison located in the Yellow River loop of the Liao State.
"It will take at least three days to reach the Heqing army from here, and it will take five days to reach the Xiangyou Military Division in Western Xia, and it will take ten days to reach Youzhou." Yelu and Lu Wei looked at the map spread out in front of them, looking at Youzhou, which was located due south and had been occupied by the Song people, and couldn't help frowning.
"Finally, there are only ten days left...... Xiao Shen stroked the three strands of long beard under his chin, and he also breathed a sigh of relief. These northern barbarians are just too much of a headache. Along the way, I don't know how many incidents have been stirred up, and when we get out of the border of our Daliao, let them go wild. ”
"Lord Xiao, having said that, don't forget, we are now in alliance with Western Xia, if those tribal armies make too much trouble, it will not look good on Your Majesty's face. You are the military envoy of the prison, this burden, I am afraid that you still need Lord Xiao to bear a good burden. ”
"What about the small summer supper? If it weren't for the Song people who drove the dog into the poor alley, there would be no power to resist, how could he lose his sincerity to my Daliao like this? The corners of Xiao Shen's mouth raised disdainfully.
"Your Highness, don't forget, this territory, the lord of Western Xia personally promised to cede to my Great Liao, since it is my Great Liao territory, naturally my Liao people have the final say, does he still think of Western Xia to make a big fuss?"
#####
Looking at the figure that broke up and left because of the argument, Yelu and Lu Wei rubbed their eyebrows, and their eyes fell on the map again, what Xiao Shen said was not unreasonable.
But the problem is that the army came here and swallowed this land ceded by Western Xia is only one of the purposes, and the main purpose is how to deal with the Song army entrenched in the land of the three states.
The Great Liao raised more than 200,000 troops, and claimed to be 300,000 to the outside world, just to play the prestige of the Great Liao State, and to ruthlessly scare the morale of the Song State, which had won a great victory in the war with the Western Xia in the past few days.
It's just that the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses cobbled together by these northern tribes are really too special and a headache. There were thirty-two tribes, the largest, such as the Bahebu tribe, sent 14,000 soldiers and horses, and the youngest was the Ninghe tribe, which only sent a thousand tribal warriors.
The composition of the team is complex, and each tribe has its own grievances, and there are constant frictions along the way. Even if they are afraid of the strength of the Liao State, they can only pretend to be honest and obedient children, but in private, they still keep making small moves.
In order to suppress and control the conflict between the various tribes, the 60,000 elites of the Liao State led by Yelu and Lu Wei had to disperse nearly the centaurs, hoping to play a role in strict military discipline and military law.
Even after Yelu and Lu Wei personally took action and slaughtered the leader of a small tribe in the north and more than 300 criminals, they finally shocked the soldiers and horses of the tribes who did not obey the order, and honestly followed the march of the army.
But even so, the hidden worry of disobeying orders still exists, but fortunately, the powerful tribes such as the Bahei Department, the Wanyan Department, the Huan Yu Department, the Sanda Department, and the Wuchun Department are very aware of the strength of the Liao State, and the Bahei Department, the Wanyan Department, the Sanda Department and the Wuchun Department are the eagle dogs cultivated by the Liao State.
With their help, Da Liao was able to make these tribal armies bow down. This march is not only on the march, but also in the integration of this chaotic army.
These northern tribes are not afraid of death, but the biggest drawback is that the tribe is very serious and wary of other tribes, and it is difficult to twist them into a rope.
This also made Yelu and Lu Wei feel a layer of dark clouds in their hearts, if it was a good fight, if it met stubborn resistance, whether this army could work together, Yelu and Lu Hu did not dare to be too optimistic.
