When the defeated and retreating rout came into contact with the rangers, and then used the rangers to pass the news to Yuan Hao, Yuan Hao was also surprised, he knew Xiao Hui's combat effectiveness, otherwise he would not have taken out the same number of cavalry, and a large number of foot soldiers as a backing.

Yeli Rongxing is also an outstanding young talent, and it is impossible for his grandfather alone to hand over such an important matter to him, but he was defeated so completely.

30,000 people, not even a chance, just like that, almost all the army was wiped out.

Yeli Rongxing made a mistake, he paid the price of his life, this can be put aside, Yuan Hao is a genius commander, he keenly felt the difference in the cavalry unit led by him, in a short period of time, defeated 3 3000 foot soldiers, this is not an ordinary attack force, it is this kind of attack that completely disintegrates the resistance of the foot soldiers.

If you think about it from another perspective, even if it is Yuan Hao, with the most elite iron harrier, it needs at least 3,000 people to be able to achieve all this, and among the tens of thousands of iron harriers, there may only be two or three teams that can do all this.

What kind of person is this, why is it so strong, especially the commander, according to the rhetoric of some of the cavalry who fled back, which of the thousand cavalry who was the first to put the right one with this thousand people, when they faced this heavy cavalry, at most they only resisted a cup of tea.

Cavalry against cavalry, thousands against thousands, but the defeat was so fast, some of them saw with their own eyes that on the route of the charge, the general led by the head of the general, with his sword in his hand, slashed ten levels in a row, which is not something that ordinary fierce generals can do.

In the era of cold weapons, fierce generals are very important, a soldier is a bear, a nest of bears, the same troops, under the leadership of different generals, the combat effectiveness is completely different, the army with personal characteristics, will obey this general, burst out of super combat effectiveness, this one general is like this.

What made Yuan Hao feel most depressed was that in Yuan Hao's intelligence, there was not any news about this person.

It is true that Yuan Hao is a genius general, but many victories rely on the collection of intelligence, as a lord with great ambitions, but in the gap between the Northern Song Dynasty and the Liao State, he must pay 120,000 points of attention, and spare no effort to search for the intelligence of the Liao State and the Northern Song Dynasty is the focus.

This information, including the origins, personalities, and past experiences of all outstanding personnel, in the middle of these, to find out the weaknesses, and to arrange them in a targeted manner.

The same is true for dispatching Yeli Rongxing, his arrangement also takes into account Xiao Hui's character, and makes some adjustments, even if he will lose, he will not lose so quickly and so badly.

The appearance of a young invincible general changed all this, which made him unexpected, the key is that there is no intelligence, this person is like a crack in a stone, directly popping out, which makes Yuan Hao even more upset.

Yuan Hao was silently angry in his heart, and even moved his anger to the intelligence director in charge of Liao, but in this way, he was really wronged.

It's not that the intelligence director is ineffective, but Zhou Wenxiu's experience is too legendary and too fast.

Zhou Wenxiu only rose half a year ago, and after the rise, he entered Xiao Hui's account, except for performing in front of Xiao Hui, he was rarely exposed outside, which became a natural umbrella.

Before that, although he had already entered the eyes of the aristocracy, many people extended an olive branch to him, but in a sense, he was just a petty official of eight or nine grades, or a civil official.

The Northern Song Dynasty emphasized literature over military force, and the seven-grade civil officials were already able to take charge of themselves in the local area, but in the Liao State, it was just the opposite.

For example, in the Northern Song Dynasty, a seven-rank military attaché, even if he was brave and invincible and talented, as long as he had not fought in a frontal battlefield, could the Western Xia inquire about him?

Zhou Wenxiu is like this, he came to the fore too quickly, and it was under Xiao Hui's command, Xiao Hui's deliberate protection, coupled with the obvious differences between the two countries, finally caused such a result.

Yuan Hao was angry, the loss of 30,000 people, 20,000 foot soldiers can be ignored, even in the calculation of combat power, it is not the focus, 10,000 cavalry, only half of the loss, a little big, but it will not hurt the muscles and bones, as long as the next fight is good.

I can't find the information, so I just don't look for it, this Zhou Wenxiu, just showed bravery, maybe the new young general of the Liao State, at most it is just a team of 1,000 people, this can be put aside, what he pays more attention to is that Xiao Hui's changes, this is related to the overall situation.

According to the investigation of Western Xia, Xiao Hui has 3,000 heavy cavalry, which is also the fundamental reason why he sent 3,000 iron harriers, but now, the performance on the battlefield, Xiao Hui has 5,000 people, of which the extra 2,000 people have become the key to determining this battle, which of the young generals is the commander of one of the thousand teams.

The heavy cavalry, which is the absolute main force of the Western Xia and the Liao State, has unimaginable combat effectiveness, and it is this more than the 2,000 people who exceed the strength of the general heavy cavalry that has become the force that decides the outcome on the battlefield, and it is also the root of such a big loss this time.

Yuan Hao's sensitivity on the battlefield is beyond ordinary people, and he immediately found that although they occupy a favorable position, if they resist the enemy outside the country, then they will pay an unbearable price, that is to say, a head-on confrontation with Xiao Hui, even if it will be victorious, he will not be able to resist the main force of Liao Xingzong, especially the 20,000 Tielin army.

The strength of the Tielin Army is famous, not to mention the personal leadership of the Liao Lord, which is the elite of the elite.

At the beginning of the war, Yuan Hao put himself in the position of a weak man, and the key to considering the problem was how to mobilize the enemy, how to defeat the strong with the weak, and how to exchange the smallest loss for the greatest result.

This is the essence of the weak, Yuan Hao also sensitively grasped this, he was not easy to transfer troops, retreated in advance, and began to prepare for some actions, while he led tens of thousands of rangers and began to choose a roundabout attack, looking for opportunities to fight in a wide range of interspersed and transferred.

Not every road has Xiao Hui's strength, and not every road has Xiao Hui's vision.

Xiao Hui's battle has actually spread to the three roads, and Liao Xingzong's appreciation and joy have further increased the pressure on the other two roads.

After Xiao Hui cleaned up the battlefield, because of the terrain, there was a desert of more than a few hundred miles in front of him, and more than 10,000 captives needed to be dealt with, so he shrank a little and prepared to deal with these captives, at least interrogate them and see Yuan Hao's arrangement.

When the shrinking camp on this side was stagnant, the other two roads were a little greedy and reckless, especially the Yelu Chongyuan 7000 Southern Route Army.

As the emperor's younger brother, he has always regarded the throne as the highest goal, and the 7,000 men and horses under his command are all from the elite heavy cavalry of the Tielin Army, Yelu Chongyuan is quite confident in his strength.

An unknown general can defeat 10,000 people with 1,000 people, and he can do it too.

When he knew that the 5,000 cavalry of Western Xia was ahead, he did not choose to take the initiative to attack.

This is Yuan Hao's trap, the 5,000 cavalry placed in front of it, only a part of it, and at least 15,000 cavalry, ambushed on the side.

Yelu Chongyuan, who was greedy for merit, was tricked, and was attacked by Yuan Hao in the battle with 5,000 cavalry.

The strength of the Tielin Army was outstanding, in the midst of the heavy siege, and the battle and retreat, in the end, it was able to escape, but the losses were huge, the defeat was 300 miles, and the loss of almost 4,000 people, it can be said that the cavalry under his command was almost disabled.

Yelu Chongyuan retreated to the border pass where he went out to fight, waiting for follow-up rescue, and Liao Xingzong also sent 5,000 Tielin troops to increase their troops.

Everyone thought that this battle would break out completely in the south, but Yuan Hao disappeared.

Yuan Hao's intention to use troops is very obvious, that is, continuous accumulation, with the help of small victories, to seek the greatest victory.

After the victory in this battle, Yuan Hao did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but quickly retreated, without giving the Liao army any chance.

At this moment, his focus is on internal, more on propaganda, this is not a retreat, but a strategic shift, and the situation on the battlefield is to avoid the enemy's edge.

If, after the battle with Xiao Hui, he retreated, then it would be easy to be fanned by the flames, but now, with victory, and then take the initiative to retreat, it is much easier to do, more than 500 miles of Hanhan Desert, has become the best place, all the oases, villages, and everything that can be used for supplies on the road of the Liao army have been used, and no one is left.

These plans have been prepared for a long time, and even as early as last year, when the Liao State attacked the party clan in the territory and Yuan Hao supported it, it was already prepared.

If a few herdsmen of the Dangxiang clan in the territory of Liao can be introduced into Western Xia, this can increase the population of Western Xia by hundreds of thousands, and this temptation is not small.

Therefore, Yuan Hao did not hesitate to intervene, and finally let the Liao State's solicitation make him die.

At that time, Yuan Hao considered that the Liao State would expand the war, and even sent a large army to attack his homeland.

Yuan Hao was a little proud, but he also knew that there was a huge difference between Western Xia and Liao in terms of national strength, and if he didn't deal with it carelessly, it would be a catastrophe for Western Xia.

The easiest to use is this sea of sand, thousands of miles of sand sea, has become a natural barrier in Western Xia, some necessary arrangements are still necessary, when the time comes, while introducing the party herdsmen, while the wall is cleared, and when the Liao State can no longer hold on, it will naturally retreat.

It is not easy to build, maybe a few years, more than ten years, I can't see much results, but when I destroy it, it is simply very convenient, arson and burn the oasis, poison and pollute the water source, maybe a day or two, an oasis that may be formed for thousands of years, and it has become a story.

Billowing smoke, permeating the sky above the desert, after the wind blowing, scattered everywhere, layers of black smoke, just like the heads of demon kings, showing a hideous smile, Yuan Hao spent a year to prepare the killer plan, finally came out.
