Chapter 716: The Last Defender

When Gao Fangping approached the Pule City Governance Office with his personal guards, the Western Xia officers and soldiers were gone, only a stubborn little girl with a knife was guarding the gate of the governance office and not allowed to enter. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Just like during the Battle of Song and Xia, some county lords would rather die than surrender. There were also such people in Western Xia.

Therefore, this little girl formed a lone army, which can be regarded as the strongest resistance encountered by Gao Fangping's troops since they marched in.

The little girl and Liang Hongyu were about the same age, so Liang Hongyu took out a knife in a cavalry posture, rode a big yellow dog, and said: "You see, the battle of Pule City will be fought by my Xiaoyu."

But Liang Hongying confiscated the knife, slapped the back of the head, and handed it to Ju Jing to hold in his arms.

Then at the gate of the Pule City Mansion, the only defender, the little girl from Xixia, watched Gao Fangping walk over wearing stainless steel chain mail with tears in her eyes.

This time it is Gao Fang's charge that is the first to take the lead, and everyone will always give him a chance to pretend to be forced. During the battle of Shilong Pass and Hezhong Mansion, the Great Demon King shrank behind very obscenely, and it was too insulting to the Son of Heaven Sword hanging on his waist.

Sudden –

When Gao Fangping passed, the little girl from Xixia slashed at Gao Fangping's waist with a knife, but the quality of her weapons was so poor that the blades were rolled.

In addition, her knife bounced off and fell to the ground. When she bent down to pick up the knife, she was stepped on by Gao Fangping.

The little girl blushed and tried hard to pick up the knife.

After that, Gao Fangping touched her skull and gave her a piece of compressed military ration in her hand.

The little girl stopped holding a knife and began to eat military rations. She thought it was so delicious.

After eating, Gao Fangping gave her another piece.

The little girl took another bite and said, "Five days ago, I found out that the leader of our Western Xia garrison was drunk, and he didn't wake up after being drunk for two days, general, do you also drink?" ”

Gao Fangping shook his head and said, "I don't drink." ”

The little girl said, "If you don't drink, you're not a general." ”

Gao Fangping said: "You still tell me what happened after your general got drunk, right?" ”

The little girl took another bite of military food and said: "I came to Pule City to report with the news of your Song army, but the day before yesterday, the general woke up from wine, and then met me, and after listening to my news, he gave me a knife and asked me to fight a decisive battle with the Song army, and then he evacuated here with people, and I heard that he went to Yaode City." ”

Gao Fangping said: "So I declare that you have been defeated, and the Pule City you are guarding has fallen. ”

Tick-tock, her tears flowed.

Gao Fangping said again: "Girl, you have done your best, you are a respectable little soldier, you have already stood on your last shift, don't be stubborn." I officially declare that you are a prisoner of my Great Song People's Liberation Army. ”

The little girl snorted and shook her head, indicating that she would not be a prisoner.

"Well, it's not a prisoner, but you're already de facto defeated, and as a warrior you have to submit defeat and abide by the results of the war. That's all right. Saying that, Gao Fangping gave her another lollipop.

"Okay. Little girl, I didn't surrender, I was just defeated, I couldn't beat the Song army, and if the Western Xia Emperor summoned me in the future, I would be relieved. The little girl took the lollipop as she said that.

After a large group of ruthless people followed, their faces turned green, because this was the result of the offensive and defensive battle of Pule City, which was captured by the Great Demon King himself......

Hearing that Gao Fangping personally attacked Pule City, Liu Yanqing was also surprised, he always felt that Gao Fangping was more obscene than brave enough, which was very unscientific.

But the commander of the Northern Expedition was still like this, Lao Liu was a very political person, so he immediately raised troops and began to advance towards Xiazhou. But Lao Liu is anxious at the same time, he is not a person who is happy with his achievements, and now in the strategic place of Xiazhou, there are the main forces of the Jianing Military Division and the Xiangyou Military Division, with more than 50,000 defenders, and the defense of Xiazhou is not weak, so this will be a real hard battle.

Not all people have good luck.

As a commander who is not usually mighty, Liu Yanqing can only smile wryly. The Xixia people were frightened by Gao Fangping, so the Jianing Military Division, who was originally defending Youzhou, did not dare to block Gao Fangping in the direction of Xiping Mansion.

Lao Liu is bitter, although Shizhou is considered to be the king of the world and wins very beautifully, but to put it bluntly, there are no hard bones. But Xiazhou is a strategic place, and the two small military divisions are currently defending, even if Tao Jiefu commanded an army of more than 100,000 four years ago, he did not easily say that Xiazhou is not, and Lao Tao is mainly opposed, because as a commander, Tao Jiefu knows the difference between siege warfare and field warfare better than anyone else.

Xiazhou's defense is strong, and as the defender of the city, they have tens of thousands of elite main battle defenses, which is no joke. If you want to forcibly gnaw such a bone, even if Liu Yanqing is now an elite of 70,000 new equipment, the price will be so painful that it will be heart-pounding.

It is said that the offensive and defensive battles of Hezhong Mansion at that time were classics, and the 20,000 elites of Gao Fangping dragged nearly 300,000 people for four months.

So as a commander who is responsible for the soldiers, Liu Yanqing really didn't dare to fight Xiazhou so easily, damn it, this is aggression, not "defending the homeland". Therefore, the battle losses that the troops can accept in the two situations are completely different.

However, politically, Gao Fangping, as the commander of the Northern Expedition, marched so smoothly in the northwest that his troops had already arrived in Pule City by the date of the report.

So, this is the problem faced by Liu Yanqing's department, whether to bite Xiazhou or not?

Perhaps this was also the problem of Tao Jiefu four years ago.

Now it almost reproduces the scene of more than four years ago, when Gao Fangping had not yet debuted, but was a flower Tai Sui in Bianjing. At that time, Tao Jiefu's soldiers besieged Xiazhou, but it was not triggered. And the seed master Dao is also about to come to Xiping Mansion.

Now the same way, Gao Fangping is approaching Xipingfu, an important town in Western Xia, while Liu Yanqing is blocked in Xiazhou in the east, and he cannot advance or retreat. The difference is that the combination of the breeder Dao Tao Jiefu at that time has now been replaced by two "Gao Fangping and Liu Yanqing Combination" that is insufficient in iron and blood and is too obscene.

Upgrade!

"See the big handsome!"

In the Xiazhou camp of the Yongxing Military Expeditionary Force, the generals knelt down to see Liu Jieshuai!

Yes, Lao Liu has also officially established the festival, the court commendation document has arrived, in view of the correct strategy of the Song and Xia battles presided over by Gao Fangping, the brave battles of the various departments, and the loyalty to the Great Song Dynasty, Gao Fangping is now a scholar of the Chinese book, the court said, Liu Yanqing's performance is particularly good, so Liu Yanqing added the title of envoy of the Jingzhao Festival, from the second grade.

In the former Great Song Dynasty, this was the title of the highest military attachΓ©. Of course, it has been innovated now, and the highest is the rank of captain. Lao Liu is a lieutenant when he is promoted to one level. As Lao Liu's wish, as long as the Northern Expedition does not produce a moth and the court is happy, I am afraid that there will be the title of Tai Lieutenant after the end of the Northern Expedition.

As for the war, leave it to the young people. Lao Liu also really felt tired.

Of course, the premise is that this Northern Expedition will not have a moth, otherwise it will be brought back to life by Gao Fangping. The current problem of Xiazhou is Lao Liu's moth. It is wrong to fight or not, and the sacrifice is too great, that is, the command is lost, and the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty are ruined, and if they don't fight, it is easier for Gao Fangping to say that it is a strategy to delay the fighter plane and delay his entry into Xiping Mansion.

At that time, the seed master couldn't bite Tao Jiefu, but now Lao Liu is not Tao Jiefu, and Gao Fangping, who is about to be sent to Xiping Mansion, is not a seed master.

"Why is Old Liu Shuai sad?" The generals under his command asked one after another.

Liu Yanqing smiled bitterly and said: "Now that the little Gao Xianggong is advancing fast, he is marching so fast, and he has now arrived in Pule City, this is really a talisman for us." Now that the Xiazhou offensive is perfect, the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, should we fight or not? ”

Liu Guangshi said: "Yes, my father's worries are not unreasonable, and military theory cannot be bitten hard, otherwise the casualties will be too great to do." Originally, we thought we could have a long time to go on a roundabout tug-of-war. It's all because we sent troops from Yinzhou, and the distance is very close. But who would have thought that Xiao Gao Xianggong's god-fast march, he could send troops from Hezhong Mansion in such a short time, and now he has arrived in Pule City, it is too perverted! It's just roasting our Yongxing military system on the fire. ”

Yes, after the affairs of Guangxi were settled, Gao Fangping maneuvered, Liu Guangshi was transferred from Zong Ze to Yongxing Military Road, and Zong Ze and Gao Fangping were promoted, Xiao Liu was also promoted, and now the official worships the defense envoy and is the chief general of the security army. Worked as an errand under his father Liu Yanqing.

"Newspaperβ€”"

At this time, the military report came again, and the messenger said: "Report to the commander, Xiao Gao Xianggong has sent troops from Pule City and laid down Yaode City, and it is less than seven days' feet away from Xiping Mansion!" ”

"What! What the! ”

Including Lao Liu, all the generals smiled bitterly, now it is not a defense but an offense, they are really afraid to hear about Gao Fangping's good news, the more good news, the more it represents the incompetence of the Yongxing military system.

Liu Guangshi said with a sweaty look: "The Great Demon King has always been obscene, it is really his eyes that can't rub the sand, since he is about to come to the important town of Xiping Mansion, then we must also fight in Xiazhou, father, we can't delay." ”

Liu Yanqing sighed, he really didn't dare to delay any longer, and planned to start deploying the Battle of Xiazhou.

However, the herald said: "There is also a military order from the Minister of the Junior High. ”

Earlier, it was a military report, but now it is a military order, so everyone, including Lao Liu, got up and waited.

"The Yongxing military department doesn't need to rush to fight Xiazhou." The herald said, "Your department is in a different situation, you have not carried out any propaganda offensive and foreshadowing, rashly besieging the city, relying on the powerful defensive offensive of tens of thousands of Western Xia elites, will cause serious battle damage, and in the end it will not benefit the results of the Northern Expedition of our expeditionary force." ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other.

The herald continued: "Combat order 1, the Yongxing army is located in the surrounding areas of Xiazhou: Qiliping, Dashadui, Wangting Town, Wanjingkou generation dispatched troops, pretending to prepare for a bloody battle in Xiazhou, but in fact, it frightened the Western Xia army, so that after misunderstanding, the army quickly contracted to concentrate on defending Xiazhou City. At that time, your troops led but did not launch, strategically besieged Xiazhou, cut off its logistics line, and forcefully trapped the 50,000 troops of the Xiangyou Military Division and the Jianing Military Division in Xiazhou and could not move. ”
