Gao Fangping said again, "Secondly, Xiazhou and Youzhou are important grain producing places in Western Xia, at this time, when the Western Xia court set the tone to fight to the end, Xiao Heda has no other way to go, and he, the commander of Western Xia, must implement the political decisions of Western Xia." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info So he had to relieve the siege of Xiazhou, but also to hold Youzhou, without the food in these two places, soon a large number of people in Xingqing Mansion would starve to death and then there would be civil strife, Li Qianshun only gave Xiao Heda the White Horse Military Division to go out of battle, in fact, it was to prevent the people from rioting and preventing those powerful people from fishing in troubled waters. ”

"Oh, I see, I thought that when the time came, it would always rain, and there would be food on the ground, and the subjects would naturally be loyal to the emperor." Ruda said embarrassedly.

Gao Fangping's face was green with anger, feeling this fat-headed and big-eared drunkard, he has been following my big demon king so heartlessly for a few years?

The others were amused by Ruda.

However, Ruda is so virtuous, there are very few people under the command of the Great Demon King who don't know how to build, but Ruda is drunk, drunk all day long, and he is stupid. And the main general determines the temperament of the troops, and the bear soldiers under his command are basically this virtue. That's why Ruda's team is a step in the armor.

In addition to the military regulations of the big frame, each general will have his own style to influence his subordinates, Ruda is a person who uplifts the weeping willow when he disagrees, and the weeping willow is used to leave a Xiucai to chant poetry, so he is a mallet that is attacked the most by Xiucai.

Because of these, his troops have long been a team with strength and muscle values, and they usually like to practice weightlifting or something when they have nothing to do. Naturally, after the new step armor was equipped, these large and simple-minded bear soldiers were the best candidates for the step armor.

Lin Chong was born as a spear and stick teacher, and his housekeeping skills are also guns, so in Lin Chong's team culture, they are the best at besieging and killing cavalry with pikemen.

Yang Zhi is usually gentle, in fact, there is a reason why he is called the green-faced beast, it is really a biting dog that does not bark, his team is called the beast army, Yang Zhi's housekeeping skills are actually knife skills, and Yang Zhi's team in melee hand-to-hand combat is the wildest and most distinctive.

And so on and so forth, each general has its own characteristics, and these are all small cultures that coexist under a big culture.

Shi Wengong This guy is the most terrifying shooter of this era, there is no one. So don't look at the heavy cavalry he brings, in fact, he has been studying the technical textbooks of cavalry and archery all these years, and there were not so many cavalry before, but now Gao Fangping has 37,000 people, which is a full cavalry unit, which is very important. The entire army was influenced by Shi Wengong.

Because of the existence of equestrian science and technology workers such as Shi Wengong, Ma Jun and Duan Jinzhu, Gao Fangping's current cavalry, except for the traditional heavy cavalry Yongle Army, the rest have barely become usable crossbow light cavalry after several months of running-in.

Archers are a very obscene existence, and almost all the big hooligans in this era will eventually be planted in the Mongolian archery tactics, which is called "kite flying tactics".

In principle, a long-range strike group with powerful mobility is, of course, obscene. However, the archery tactics did not have a national cultural heritage from a young age, and it was impossible to have the skills of Mongolian archers, because it was impossible for all of them to be Shi Wengong. If the average person can't shoot well with a bow, it will be even more difficult to shoot on a horse with a bumpy ride at high speed.

Fortunately, the promotion of the Divine Arm Crossbow after several modifications has solved the technical difficulty of mounted archery to a certain extent, although the upper arrow is still a problem, and it is not as fast and frequent as the real nomadic archer, but it is better in range and lethality.

If the average archer encounters a truly elite group such as the English longbow, it is easy to suffer a big loss, because the range of the cavalry bow is not as good as that of the foot archer, but the divine arm crossbow can overcome such difficulties, so after winning the distance, it is actually equivalent to winning the time to get the arrow.

It's called free time exchange.

Therefore, the current crossbow cavalry cluster is the confidence for the decisive battle between Gao Fangping and the last ace of Western Xia, the White Horse Military Division.

Of course, at present, Xiao Heda is really not a mediocre talent, but unfortunately, he was just born in Liao and Western Xia by mistake, and he is destined to go out as a general to fight a battle that will never be won.

Therefore, Gao Fangping was prepared in his heart, and the battle of maneuvering to the northeast and blocking the last ace of Western Xia would be a protracted super-mobile cavalry roundabout battle in the no-man's land in the southwest of the Mu Us Desert.

There will be no reappearance of Shilongguan, Shilongguan cannot be copied, and it is destined to become history, only once.

Under the condition that Xiao Heda is not a mediocre talent, and the war has lasted to this extent, he understands the quality, morale, equipment, and characteristics of Gao Fangping, and so on, no one can reproduce the glory of the Shilongguan Battle.

And the White Horse Military Division is not comparable to you in the West Shining United, that is really their last trump card, the number is slightly inferior to the right wing of the Military Division, but they also have heavy cavalry, that is, the famous Western Xia cold forging armored cavalry in this era, the breeder said that they had suffered a big loss of this kind of heavy cavalry.

The serious thing is that at present, Gao Fangping has no really effective means to break the cold forging armor and heavy cavalry, so he can only rely on tactical detours, or use the Yongle Army to hard top.

Because even if it is a divine arm crossbow, the armor-breaking distance of this kind of cold-forged armor heavy riding is only about a hundred steps. It was already a very close distance, and it was very dangerous to bring the light cavalry to this situation. It can't be thrown, and then the opponent is also a cavalry, and the horsemanship is much higher than that of the Song army.

And the armor-piercing distance of one hundred paces, that is the strongest divine arm crossbow with the traditional craftsmanship of the military department. And Gao Fangping's pork crossbow will further shorten the armor-piercing distance.

Therefore, in the decisive battle with the White Horse Military Division, the equipment advantage will be partially offset, and you have to start from the specific tactics, as a strong side, Gao Fangping doesn't want to make the elite in his hand bloody.

Therefore, Gao Fangping's obscene place is here, and he does not underestimate the enemy, even now, he is ready to fight a protracted and roundabout war with the White Horse Military Division. Because strategically, it is they who are in a hurry, not Gao Fangping......

The 31,000 elite men of the main battle of Gao Fangping have already mobilized and are rapidly maneuvering to the northeast. Only this number of people is because they have given up everything that can be given up, such as the logistics support team, the battlefield Red Cross team, etc., have been approaching the border of the Song State in a light cavalry posture, and at a certain time they will have a kind of mentorship to respond and protect.

People are emotional animals, and Gao Fangping's "love for the people like sons" left a deep impression on the commoners of Western Xia.

As a result, when Gao Fangping's troops were fully evacuated from Yaode City and Pule City, there were many Western Xia civilians sending the Red Army...... No, send Song Jun.

There are even many herdsmen who gave their precious sheep to Gao Fangping, saying that they were taking them to eat on the road.

Gao Fangping didn't like mutton, but he also accepted some, which was regarded as carrying some in the army, and appropriately changing the taste of the expeditionary force. Of course, at the same time, Gao Fangping also gave these herdsmen gifts in return, which was actually bought, but compared with the price of mutton in Bianjing, it was basically free. Hey.

When the army left the occupied area, there were also many Western Xia children who watched them leave with tears in their eyes, all because of the arrival of Gao Fangping, who was cured of the coughing child. In the previous spring, which was characterized by dryness, it was the period when children coughed frequently, and in previous years, many children died of this situation due to this situation, but this time there were very few deaths.

It's all because of the pork flat in Western Xia.

The only bad thing is that the Tangut people who came to see them off must also pay attention to the influence, and they can't blatantly hope for the "return of Gao Fangping", because in this era they are Tangut people, and they can only hope that the kings of Tangut will regain their lost territory, which is politically correct.

But there is also a group that is not small, they don't understand the big truth, they are looking forward to the return of pork in their hearts, and they are in a posture of "seeking liberation".

Before leaving, Gao Fangping made a public speech and promised them: "Although you are not the real people of the Great Song Dynasty, you are still concerned by the Great Song People's Liberation Army. After the end of the war, the government will pay serious attention to the 'human rights' situation in Western Xia, and if there is a large-scale injustice and inhumanity, the Song army will still send troops to intervene in the name of 'humanitarian rescue'. There is no banquet in the world, and my gathering with you has come to an end for the time being, and the green mountains will not ...... Well, I mean, I won't forget you, and we can get back together. ”

Yes!

At that time, the large-headed civilians of Western Xia saw off the expeditionary force with such cheers......

Xiao Heda Shuai's 50,000 main battle elites of the White Horse Army Division came out of Huaizhou and marched southeast towards Baichi City.

The 30,000 elites of the Gao Fang Ping Department came out of Yaode City and headed northeast towards Baichi City.

In terms of distance, Gao Fangping's department is slightly closer, and Gao Fangping's department is famous for marching, so there is a high probability that it will block Xiao Heda's department in the Baichi area one to two days in advance. Gao Fangping's best idea is that if he can wait for work two days in advance, then no matter what the tactics of the first battle are, he will have a great advantage, and it will be a good start for this cavalry tug-of-war......

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Xiao Heda, he was like a traffic commander waving a whip, urging the Xixia cavalry to gallop forward for several miles, "Give up everything that can be brought or not with baggage, there is already news from the spies, Gao Fangping's army is coming out of Yaode City, and the meeting place this time is likely to be the Baichi area, and Gao Fangping's department is known as the Divine Marching Army, so we must march with him at any cost, and we can't let his troops wait for work, we must rush to Baichi City before he deploys." ”

So in addition to the necessary materials, they were all thrown away and abandoned, and those could only be handed over to the logistics and transportation lines in the direction of Jingzhou, Huaizhou, and Xiping to further clean up.

On one side was the galloping posture of the military division of Baima Qiangzhen, and a Western Xia general beside him said: "Li Xiang, why are you sure that Gao Fangping's troops will fight with us in Baichi City?" The most difficult part of cavalry warfare is maneuvering, and the military report of the fast horse scout may not really be much faster than the cavalry army, so we are likely to be misled by the military report that 'Gao Fangping has left Yaode City to move to Baichi City'? ”

Xiao Heda sighed while riding his horse: "It won't be misleading. The battle situation has been dragged to the point where it is now, whether it is our side or Gao Fangping, there is only one tactic. At this time, it was useless for him to maneuver to other places, but he knew that once the White Horse Army Division entered Xiazhou, Liu Yanqing's troops would be in danger, which would be enough to reverse the situation in Xiazhou. Therefore, it is not in Gao Fangping's interests to move to other places, his purpose is not to attack the fortified positions in Xiping Mansion, and he wants to weaken the morale and national strength of our Xixia again in the form of field warfare. And after my Western Xia national policy has set the direction of the bloody battle to the end, our glimmer of life is in Xiazhou, and only by defeating Gao Fangping can we protect Xiazhou. ”

After a pause, Xiao Heda frantically urged the war horse to gallop and said, "This is the last battle!" It's about the national fortune of Western Xia! It's all up to us! ”
