Chapter 621: Can't Let the 50,000 Western Xia Soldiers and Horses Cross the River Safely (First Update)

Chapter 621

And here, under the arch guard of more than 100 personal riders, the seed master road slowly moved forward, and came to a distance of about 20 steps from Liang Yikui, and then turned over and dismounted.

"Sinner Liang, I've seen the ...... general" Liang Yiqi took a deep breath and bowed deeply towards the fast-walking seed master.

The seed master walked a few steps quickly, helped Liang Yiqi who had fallen down, and looked at this person who was eager to eat his flesh and sleep his skin in the past, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Mr. doesn't have to be like this, although you and I used to be our own masters, Ran Chong still admires Mr.'s talent and military strategy. I hope that in the future, you and I will be ministers of the same palace and do our best to serve my lord. ”

"Thinking of me Liang, for decades, I have been loyal to Xixia, and I have cried blood, but in the end I was victimized by traitors, and now I also regard my Liang family as an enemy, and I am determined to kill the Liang family, and Liang is already disheartened......"

Speaking of this, he turned his head and looked at the large number of henchmen and generals behind him, Liang Yikui cleared his throat, and then said with emotion. "Liang is old, even if he dies, what's the matter? It's just that the old man doesn't want these brothers behind him who have followed Liang for many years to also suffer bad luck because of Liang's mistakes......"

The seed master smiled, bowed his head slightly from time to time, and even expressed his praise for Liang Yikui's dedication to the brothers around him.

He also took out a handwritten letter from Su Dongpo, the pacification envoy of Shaanxi Road, the privy envoy, and the scholar of Longtu Pavilion, and read it out, telling Liang Yikui and the brave soldiers who were willing to abandon the darkness and surrender to the Ming and rebel against the Xia and Song Dynasty expressed their affirmation and praise.

And tell them that the will of the Son of Heaven of the Great Song Dynasty will soon be able to reach Shaanxi Road, and when the time comes, they will definitely be able to give them a certain amount of treatment, so that they can feel the strong warmth of the Great Song Dynasty.

Of course, the Great Song Dynasty will definitely select some loyal and willing talents who are willing to shed their blood for the Great Song Dynasty from among these outstanding talents who have surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty, join the Great Song Dynasty, and contribute their due strength and responsibility to the Great Song Dynasty.

In addition, there is also Han Zhongchan, the second-in-command of the Privy Council, and the content of the handwritten letter of the deputy envoy of Shaanxi Road Jinglu is also similar.

With these two world-famous and important ministers as guarantors, and seeing the harmony of the generals such as the Seed Master Dao, it finally made Liang Yiqi and other Western Xia generals breathe a long sigh of relief in their hearts.

After that, the work of surrendering and surrendering began to be carried out, but to the relief of the seed master, most of them were Han Chinese, so there was no barrier to language communication, and more importantly, both sides were Han Chinese, and many of them were descendants of Han people who were taken captive to Western Xia when their parents or grandparents were born.

Coupled with the repeated explanations before the return of the master Dao, the handover work seemed to be very smooth, and after the soldiers and horses under the command of Liang Yiqi handed over their weapons and equipment, they took the initiative to withdraw from Hongzhou City to show their sincerity.

However, like Liang Yiqi and other cadres who surrendered to the upper echelons of the army, except for some officers who were left with the Song army to appease those soldiers, most of them stayed in the city, as for Liang Yiqi and several generals such as Hu Yu and General Wen Qi around him, they were invited by the Seed Master Dao to participate in the military meeting, in order to show the mercy of the Great Song Dynasty towards them.

And Liang Yikui took the initiative to report to the seed master Daoyu about what happened inside and outside Hongzhou after the previous mutiny, as well as the current situation of the entire Jianing Military Division.

"Sachen...... I have never heard of this person, but since he can be appointed as the commander by the chairman of the Western Xia Kingdom, and he designs to seize Hongzhou, this shows that this person also has some skills, but it is not as good as Mr. Liang......" The seed master said with a smile as he stroked his long beard and chin his head.

The reason why Liang Yikui is called Mr. is naturally because they have now surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty, and the official positions of the Western Xia in the past naturally cannot be used anymore, but the appointment of the Son of Heaven of the Great Song Dynasty has not yet come down, so they can only be called so for the time being.

The information provided by Liang Yikui also made the seed master Dao vigilant, after all, although the Great Song Dynasty was like a bamboo, he took Yanzhou, and Liang Yikui presented the Jianing Military Division to the Great Song Dynasty, which was definitely a rare good news for the Great Song Dynasty.

It's just that even if Western Xia is now unable to compete with the Great Song Dynasty, and may not be able to recapture Yanzhou and Jianing Military Division, no one dares to guarantee it.

In particular, the Northern Liao has been secretly manipulating the struggle between the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty in the past few decades, making the Great Song Dynasty have no spare strength for the Northern Expedition. Now, the Western Xia has lost troops and lost a large area of territory, and it will continue like this.

It is very likely that Western Xia will no longer be brave in the past and become a weak country, and at that time, the Great Song Dynasty, which has no one to contain, will inevitably take action against Northern Liao.

Therefore, Beiliao will definitely react to deal with the situation that has formed in front of him.

The Great Song Dynasty seized the Jianing Military Division composed of Youzhou and Hongzhou, which was equivalent to cutting off the connection between the Xia and Long Prefectures of the Xiangyou Military Division in the southeast of Western Xia, and the Yin and Shi Prefectures of the Shenyong Military Division in the left chamber and Xingqing Mansion.

Moreover, to the east of these four states is the Jinning Army, Linzhou, and Fuzhou of the Great Song Dynasty, to the south, there are Suide Army and Yan'an Mansion, and to the west, it is naturally Youzhou, Hongzhou, and Yanzhou, which have become the soil of the Song Dynasty.

The two military divisions now have about 80,000 soldiers and horses, and if these 50,000 troops are allowed to cross the river safely through the ancient city of Nawuyan, it will inevitably make the strength of the Western Xia people in the land of the four states greatly increase.

It has increased the difficulty of the Great Song Dynasty to take the land of these four states in the future, not to mention, under the situation of the concentration of the opponent's troops, it will make the Great Song Dynasty in a dilemma.

“…… Therefore, Liang thought that the 50,000 troops in the ancient city of Wuyan would better not let them easily cross the Wuding River and enter the land of the four states. ”

Liang Yikui's exhaustive analysis also made the master deeply agree, but now, there are almost 40,000 soldiers here, and although there are 40,000 soldiers and horses under his command, they must not be all taken away.

After all, I still have to rush to Youzhou, and then bring the territory in the north under the rule of the Great Song Army, as well as the land of the walled forts, and the 40,000 soldiers and horses under my command are not enough.

At this moment, it was really the turn of the Seed Master Dao to make a difficulty, he didn't want the 50,000 Western Xia soldiers and horses to cross the Wuding River so easily, but he really didn't dare to use the 40,000 troops under his command as the main force to attack the other party.

Even if Liang Yikui has already made a guarantee, among the other party's army, in addition to the 20,000 garrisons who are the elite of the forbidden army from Xingfu Prefecture, the remaining 20,000 are soldiers and horses from Yanzhou, and as for the more than 10,000, nearly 10,000 are cripples with wounded legs, and two or three thousand defeated troops who fled to Yanzhou after being defeated.
