Chapter 892

"Since the commander of the supervision line has been changed because of the unfavorable war, will the next commander who holds military power repeat the mistakes of the previous commander?"

Wang Yang's words did make all the generals present have to admit that they are very reasonable. Come to think of it, the reason why the prince of Liao was replaced must have a lot to do with the fierce battle for more than a month and the lack of success.

As the saying goes, there are three fires when a new official takes office. However, the commander of the Liaoxia Coalition Army, who took office, did not set fire to Youzhou City, so it can only show that the object he is going to set fire to should be other targets......

"It's unlikely, right? Could it be that this new coach is ready to ignore our Youzhou and raise a large army to go south to the hinterland of Sanzhou? Gao Shi's face couldn't help but change, and his expression looked a little difficult to look at.

"The last general thinks what the lord said is quite reasonable, otherwise, why after Yi Shuai, why didn't the Liaoxia coalition army continue to storm our state city, but stop and reorganize the army." The seed master and he quite agreed with Wang Yang's point of view.

"Let the brothers of the city walls be on strict alert and pay attention to the movements of the camps under the city, Wang really wants to see what the new commander of the Liaoxia coalition army wants to do, in addition, try to send messengers, go out by night, and try to inform the guards in Hongzhou and other places, so that they can spread the news of the Liaoxia coalition army Yi Shuai to the ears of Su Bachelor."

"No!" A civil and military officer, neatly and uniformly obey orders.

#####

That night, the Liaoxia coalition army still did not attack, and at night, several warriors wearing Western Xia clothes and armor quietly sneaked out of the encirclement through the empty space between the camps, and went straight to the south.

When Su Dongpo received the news, it was already three days later, and Su Dongpo was also very confused. The first thought was that Yelu Hongji, the son of heaven of the Liao State, was crazy, after all, changing the commander in battle was a taboo for soldiers.

But this Liao Emperor really did it, and replaced him with a surname Xiao, after many inquiries and clarifications, Su Dongpo finally determined the commander of the Liaoxia Coalition Army, who was the young and powerful military envoy Xiao Shen.

As for the respected deputy envoy of the prison army, Xiao Wuna, hehe, he led 20,000 soldiers and horses to the left wing of the Divine Brave Army.

"Needless to say, that scheming Xiao Wuna must have failed in his fight for the position of commander, and since Xiao Shen has become the leader of the army, how can he let this bad old man continue to hinder him." Su Dongpo stroked his long beard and said with a smile.

Zong Ze next to him couldn't help but glance at Su Dongpo, who had gray hair, and ...... Forget it, he is a humble gentleman, so he won't complain about his boss.

"In that case, it's best for us to stay put." A general stood up and spoke towards Su Dongpo. "The Liaoxia coalition army is handsome, the movement of the army will be obscure for a while and a half, we might as well brake quietly."

"Hmm...... This is also a countermeasure, all my lords, if anyone else has other ideas, let's talk about it......" After Su Dongpo bowed slightly, his eyes swept over the civil and military forces present.

"Su Xiang, Xia Guan thinks that we shouldn't brake quietly, so it's easy to fall into passivity." At this time, a voice rang out.

Su Dongpo followed the prestige and happened to see Zong Ze standing up.

"It turned out to be Ru Lin, come on, come on, tell me your reasons." Su Dongpo smiled and said with a slight bow towards Zong Ze.

Su Dongpo likes this atmosphere very much, brainstorming, and finally making a decision, which can minimize the probability of mistakes.

"The Liaoxia coalition forces are almost all gathered in the land of Youzhou, although my Great Song reinforcements are numerous, but the troops are scattered in the lands of the states, if it is static braking, it is very likely that it will be caught off guard by the Liaoxia coalition army in the early stage, and then come to mobilize troops and horses, I am afraid it will be too ......late."

"Why is it late, Master Zong, don't you believe in my Great Song Dynasty's tiger power?" One of the generals stood up and shouted with a look of disgruntle.

Zong Ze smiled, saluted the general, and explained reasonably.

The general was angry, Zong's words were not meant by that. Nowadays, the reinforcements of my Great Song Dynasty are mainly divided into four routes, one is in the west of Yanzhou, the area of Xi'an Prefecture on Qinfeng North Road, and the Xishou Baotai Military Division and Jingsai Military Division of Western Xia are contained, one is under the command of Su Xiangqin, and now it is rooted in Yinzhou, and the other is near Linzhou, which is responsible for containing the Shenyong Army Division of the Left Wing......"

"And the target of the Liaoxia coalition army, among the three states of Yan, Youzhou, and Hongzhou, Youzhou is the most solid, easy to defend and difficult to attack, while the city defenses of Hongzhou and Yanzhou are inferior."

"There are about 50,000 soldiers and horses in the Yanzhou area, and now, the two armies of General Zongshi Dao and General Zhe Keshi have been merged together, and after the assembly, there are now about 50,000 horses, originally stationed in Wuchi, after Renduozong Baohui Division Youzhou, they have moved closer to Youzhou in the area of Liuboling. On the Hongzhou side, in the ancient city of Wuyan, there are 10,000 defenders, 40,000 soldiers and horses outside the city, and there are still 30,000 defenders in Hongzhou. ”

“…… If we brake quietly, if the Liaoxia coalition army abandons Youzhou and goes straight south, the ancient city of Wuyan will fall, and Hongzhou will inevitably be in danger. And the many walled forts in the hinterland of Sanzhou are mostly hastily set up, and in the face of hundreds of thousands of Liaoxia coalition troops, how long can they hold on? ”

"How is this possible, in this way, the Liaoxia Alliance's achievements in the past month are not equivalent to the abandonment of the previous achievements?" Several generals couldn't help frowning, feeling that Zong Ze's idea was really a little too advanced.

"Aren't you generals still unable to see why Yelu Hongji, the son of heaven of Liao, is willing to take risks this time and change his commander in battle?" Seeing the expressions of these generals, Zong Ze naturally knew very well what they were thinking, cleared his throat and asked patiently.

"Because His Royal Highness the prince fought unfavorably, he stormed Youzhou for more than a month, and he didn't build an inch." Su Dongpo had already answered this question for the generals present.

"According to this, the new coach really wants to make achievements, and Youzhou, a hard bone, they really can't gnaw on it, but it is really possible to raise a large army to the south......"

Su Dongpo, a smart old driver, has also been on Shaanxi Road for more than half a year, and has been humbly learning military strategy and tactics.

"This ...... He also asked Su Xiang to immediately give an order, so that General Dao and General Zhi immediately marched eastward, joined forces with General Huang, and guarded the area of Hongzhou. A general who deeply felt that the land of Sanzhou was afraid that the war would soon be raging, and he got up and suggested with some urgency.

Su Dongpo stroked his long beard, but did not agree immediately, but looked at Zong Ze's body. "Ru Lin, since you have considered this situation, I wonder if you have thought of a countermeasure, and speak up and listen."
