Chapter 73: Drafting a letter for help

"What does the Father mean?!" Gao Hongyi asked calmly, and Li Zhong also looked at Li Xian suspiciously at the moment.

Li Xian said solemnly, "I still don't know the intentions of the cavalry of the Western Xia Kingdom, and it is too hasty to send troops easily." ”

Gao Hongyi was puzzled, "The cavalry of the Western Xia Kingdom is about to arrive at the head of my White Horse City, and we still don't send troops?" Could it be that they let them run rampant in the north like this! ”

Li Xian explained, "It's not that serious, we have been in the city for a few days, and now the people are in the cities, and there are few people in the countryside, so there will be no losses." ”

Gao Hongyi said angrily, "What should I do according to Father Ya's will?" ”

Li Xian said calmly: "From the old man's point of view, the most important thing at present is to find out the real purpose of the Western Xia cavalry suddenly coming here, and then make plans. Now we have to defend the city, not fight! ”

"Guo Shi, tell me what you think?" Gao Hongyi asked.

Guo Shi pondered for a while and replied, "General, my subordinates think that what the military advisor said is reasonable. ”

"Oh, why!"

Guo Shi replied, "My subordinates think that judging from the previous war in which the Western Xia invaded us, the Western Xia cavalry suddenly attacked at this time, obviously they came prepared, and they must have something to gain before they give up." Then in this way, they are desperate for a quick victory, and if we fight, wouldn't it be right in the middle!

But if we can't hold on, the goal of the Western Xia cavalry to fight quickly will be frustrated, and when they run out of food and grass, they will leave on their own, and we can win without a fight! ”

Li Zhong sneered, "What a good one wins without a fight, Guo Shi, have you ever been on the battlefield?" Dare to speak nonsense! Now that the cavalry of the Western Xia Kingdom has arrived at our territory, do we have to sit back and wait to be killed, and let people laugh at it, what will the people of the Northern Protector say, you know? will scold us for being a wreck, shrunken turtle! ”

"General, if you don't fight at this time, when will you wait! The Western Xia cavalry is not to be feared, I only need to take the cavalry of the city defense battalion to slaughter them all! ”

Guo Shi said loudly on the side, "Although my subordinates have never been on the battlefield, they also know how to avoid the enemy's edge, and General Li will not know it." He turned to Gao Hongyi and said, "General! After all, the cavalry of the city defense battalion has just been established, not to mention that there are few people, the combat power is not strong, and the army marched to White Horse City in a hurry, and it was too reluctant to fight! It's really unwise! ”

Li Zhong retorted, "Grow up others to destroy their own prestige, what are you with!" The cavalry of the city defense battalion was trained by me personally, and it is not your turn to talk about their combat strength! ”

Guo Shi stood aside helplessly and didn't speak, Li Zhong pleaded, "General, give the order!" ”

Gao Hongyi pondered for a moment and said, "Guo Shi took the White Horse Battalion to reinforce White Horse City, but it can only be defended, not attacked!" Li Zhong sent someone to investigate the intentions of the cavalry of the Western Xia Kingdom, and if there is any news, report it to me at any time! ”

"Yes, General!" Guo Shi immediately went down to do it.

Li Zhong didn't expect Gao Hongyi to agree not to send troops, and he was a little anxious, "Brother Yi, no!" ”

Gao Hongyi said coldly, "Let's go down!" ”。

After Li Zhong left, Gao Hongyi turned around and smiled bitterly, "Let Yafu be right, the Western Xia Kingdom really brought troops to invade in the first month. Before the fifteenth was over, they came, isn't it a little too anxious? ”

Li Xian patiently listened to Gao Hongyi's words, thought about it carefully, and said with a dumb smile, "It seems that you have been prepared!" ”

Gao Hongyi didn't sell it, and said: The child is prepared, but he hasn't thought about whether it will come in handy. ”

"How?" Li Xian asked.

Gao Hongyi replied, "Don't hide it from my father, when my father said this before, the child had a careful eye, and he had already asked Mei Rou to secretly integrate the cavalry battalion, and most of them were active near Black Flag City. One is to prevent the enemy, and the other is also for the future. ”

Li Xian's expression was full of surprise, but he was still a little uneasy, and said, "You did a good job of integrating the cavalry battalion, but now is not the time to come in handy." ”

"Then from the point of view of the Father, when will it come in handy?"

"It's too early to talk about it, at least it's not available to deal with the Western Xia Kingdom!"

"Why?" Gao Hongyi asked.

Li Xian replied, "The Western Xia Kingdom is two-faced, today I call you brothers, tomorrow I may be able to overwhelm the border, what they care about is interests and honor." If there is no profit, no honor to be gained, he will leave. But if you use strong soldiers to kill them on a large scale, not only will their interests be defeated, but their honor will be damaged. At that time, they will definitely send a large army to come, and our northern protector will be in danger. ”

Gao Hongyi suddenly thought at this time that Tu Su had told him that Ma Tangfeng intended to collude with the Western Xia Kingdom to attack him, and he thought it was just a rumor at that time. Now that I think about Li Xian's words, they have far-reaching intentions! This gentleman really admires Gao Hongyi a little now, I really don't know how many ideas he has in his heart, and how many secrets he has!

Gao Hongyi asked with a smile, "Then Mr. thinks, who is the brother of the Western Xia Kingdom today?" ”

"It's not you anyway!" Li Xian said mysteriously.

Gao Hongyi sneered, "Then I really want to see who his brother is, and whether the relationship with him is really true." ”

Gao Hongyi walked out as he spoke, called Tu Su to bring the cavalry of the Tiger Killing Battalion, and rushed to White Horse City with him.

Before going, Gao Hongyi asked Li Xian to write a letter asking for help and send it to Xihu Mansion!

The north and west are both under the rule of the Jin State, although they fight openly and secretly in private. But on the surface, they are courteous, like brothers.

Now, the cavalry of the Western Xia Kingdom suddenly attacked, although they would not hurt the Northern Protector, Gao Hongyi could also deal with it. But he deliberately wanted to write a letter asking for help to Ma Tangfeng, just to see how he would deal with it!

Moreover, Gao Hongyi has another intention, that is, to deliberately show weakness to Ma Tangfeng! Didn't he always want to attack himself? Seeing that he has the strength to ask for help when he is besieged by 5,000 cavalry, will he take the opportunity to make some articles! Gao Hongyi is very curious, and at the same time very much looking forward to it!

......

West Guard Horse Sima Tang Feng Mansion

Ma Tangfeng's son Ma Chuang ran over with an excited face, "Father, guess what the child received just now?" ”

Ma Tangfeng saw that his son was so happy, and asked, "I think it's the secret letter of the princess of the Western Xia Kingdom that you have been looking forward to." ”

"That kid does smile, but it's not, father guess!"

"As a father, I can't guess that there will be something in this world that will make you happier to get the secret letter of the princess of the Xixia Kingdom!"

"Absolutely!" Ma Chuang excitedly handed the letter in his hand to Ma Tangfeng, "Father, Gao Hongyi's letter for help!" ”

Ma Tangfeng took it over and took a closer look, and Ma Chuang said proudly, "I didn't expect Gao Hongyi's Northern Protector to be so poor and weak, and he couldn't even cope with five thousand cavalry!" Father, let's also send troops, and take the opportunity to destroy Gao Hongyi with the cavalry of the Western Xia Kingdom! Dominate the northwest and protect the two! ”

After Ma Tangfeng read the letter, he was also a lot happy, and at this time his brother Ma Yuan came, Ma Tangfeng hurriedly called him in and handed him the letter.

"Second brother, our plan has worked. It's just that I didn't expect that Gao Hongyi to show weakness and ask for help, do you say that we should send troops or not! Ma Tangfeng said playfully.

Ma Yuan pondered for a moment and replied, "Since Gao Hongyi came to ask for help, we should send troops." It's just that what we originally discussed was to wait for the Western Xia cavalry to test their reality and consume them for a while, and then in the name of fake attack on the Western Xia cavalry, the allied Western Xia attacked the north and destroyed Gao Hongyi! Now, before they are fighting, Gao Hongyi suddenly asked for help, which is a little strange! ”

Ma Chuang disagreed, and said, "What's wrong with this, he asked for help before he fought, doesn't it mean that Gao Hongyi has no soldiers and no generals, and he can't fight?" ”

"Definitely!" Ma Tangfeng said calmly, "Gao Hongyi is very cunning, let's be cautious, don't rush to send troops!" ”

Ma Chuang said angrily, "Father is too careful. So what about this letter of help, whether we can send troops or not? ”

"Out! Of course it has to be out! Ma Tangfeng sneered, "It's just that the old man has to be angry with him!" ”

"What does Father mean?"

Ma Tangfeng whispered a few words to his son, and Ma Chuang immediately laughed happily, "In this way, Gao Hongyi must be angry and bleeding!" Son, do it! ”
