Chapter 895

Such a person actually served as the pacification envoy of Shaanxi Road, which made Xiao Shen very stunned at that time, but soon, Xiao Shen, who was well versed in conspiracy theories and conspiracy theories, understood Song Ting's thoughts.

Scholar Su's mouth cannon is so powerful that it makes the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty unhappy, and he often fights with him in the court. However, he won the favor of the Empress Dowager, the actual ruler of the Song Court.

In order to protect this Su scholar, therefore, because of the war between Shaanxi Road and Western Xia, Su Dongpo was thrown to Shaanxi Road as a pacification envoy for Jingluo, and sent Han Zhongyan, who was proficient in military strategy, to accompany him.

As a result, the shit luck happened to win a big battle, and after that, the stupid Western Xia lord actually regarded the Liang army, which was still in military power, as an enemy to be overthrown.

The result is naturally self-evident, that Liang Yikui, who had been in charge of the power of Western Xia for so many years with his sister Xiaoliang Hou, for his own life, immediately turned against the water, led more than 100,000 soldiers and horses to surrender to the Song court, and offered the land of the two states, and also attacked with the Song army, and took Yanzhou.

And all of this is just the right time, as the commander-in-chief, Su Dongpo didn't do anything, and even made impressive achievements.

But in fact, these efforts have nothing to do with Su Dongpo's half of the copper plate. According to the intelligence obtained by the Liao State from the Song State, this Su Xiangye listened more to the ideas of the generals under his command.

If you say that it sounds good, you are good at admonishment, and if you say it is unpleasant, you have soft ears, and you don't have the slightest ability.

At least in the eyes of Xiao Shen and many ministers of the Liao State and the Xia State, Su Dongpo is just the one who has contributed to the profession.

Therefore, Xiao Shen was not surprised when he heard that Su Dongpo personally led the army to help.

#####

"It's actually a world-famous scholar of Su University, good, very good, if it is Han Zhongyan, Ben Shuai will hesitate for a while, since it is a Su University scholar, then, Ben Shuai must be on for a while......"

Not only did Xiao Shen's tone become relaxed, but many of the generals present also showed disdain and smiled.

Disdain, naturally for Su Dongpo, smiling, naturally smiling for the upcoming victory.

Compared with the Liao army whose morale was very full, the Song army was also very strong. Su Dongpo, who had already arrived in the ancient city of Wuyan with the ship, was standing on the wall of the ancient city of Wuyan at this moment, overlooking the more than 200,000 soldiers and horses of the Liao Kingdom.

Looking at the tents that stretched to the horizon, as well as the smoke and dust churning in the sun, Rao was Su Dongpo, who had already seen a lot of big battles, and was still a little uneasy in his heart at the moment.

After all, in the previous wars, he was in the rear, and there was almost no time to be in front. But now, after receiving the news that the commander of the Liao State is moving south, Su Dongpo, who is stationed on the east bank of the Wuding River, understands that he should make a move.

Finally, before the Liaoxia coalition army gathered in the ancient city of Wuyan, all the 80,000 reinforcements crossed the Wuding River, converged the defenders inside and outside the city, and relied on the ancient city of Wuyan to set up a formation.

Zong Ze, who had been following Su Dongpo's side, naturally noticed the gloom on Su Dongpo's face, and couldn't help but smile and point to the camp of the Liaoxia coalition army. "My lord, in the eyes of the lower officials, this Liaoxia coalition army is really not to worry about."

"Oh? What does Ru Lin mean by this? Su Dongpo's eyes swept around, and saw that the generals were scattered around the city, and he didn't notice this, so he asked in a low voice.

"There is a sentence in "Cao Di's Polemic" in "Zuo Chuan: Ten Years of Zhuang Gong", which Su Xiang must have heard. Husband war, courage also. One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion. He is doing his best, so he ...... it'" Zong Ze looked at the more than 200,000 Liaoxia coalition troops, and his expression was like a butcher looking at a lamb to be slaughtered.

"When the Liaoxia coalition army first came, the army was menacing, swallowing mountains and rivers, but who would have thought that hundreds of thousands of troops were in the small Youzhou, and Lord Xiao Wang stopped this tiger and wolf division for more than a month with the power of a city?"

"The message from Lord Xiao Wang clearly shows that this Liaoxia coalition army, after more than a month of fierce battles, has lost its sharpness, and the internal contradictions are quite heavy, if it wasn't for the strict pressure of the prince of Liao, I am afraid it would have been a mess a long time ago."

"Now that they are changing commanders, as the new commanders, they will definitely promote their trusted generals again, and in this way, there will be a gap between the new ......"

"On the other hand, my great Song Huben, since last year, the Western Xia, the three states, invincible, invincible. Even if the Liaoxia coalition army is raging, Lord Xiao Wang will block the enemy for more than a month with the power of a city, and Su Xiang in the east will take Yinzhou lightly, and in the west, the general will ride lightly and follow Jian, go deep into the hinterland of Xixia, smash its royal tomb, and destroy its cangcheng. ”

On the other hand, the Liaoxia coalition army has many internal contradictions, and the goals of the Western Xia and Liao are not the same, and all tribes have selfish intentions. If there is a strong commander, it would be fine, and the commander would be changed on the spot...... In this way, the army is stronger than the rabble in front of my Great Song Huben. ”

Zong Ze's words quickly attracted the generals scattered around, and this analysis really made the generals think it was true, and they couldn't stop admiring this middle-aged civil official more and more.

It is really impossible to see the situation of both the enemy and us so thoroughly. It is said that although this Zong Ze is a civilian official, he has very insightful views on military strategy.

Even the generals present were convinced, and Su Dongpo listened to it like drinking old wine.

Seeing the generals grinding their fists around him, as well as the soldiers not far away who were still able to talk and laugh in the face of so many enemy troops, Su Dongpo also felt that there should be no big problem in this battle.

"As the saying goes, the water comes to cover the earth, and the soldiers come to block it, since the Liao State cares about morality and cooperates with the Xixia people to invade my Song realm, then I am a big Song Huben, and I should return the color."

"I hope that all the kings will poke their strength and stop the strong enemy under the ancient city of Wuyan."

"No!" A cadre of generals, all generously received orders.

Hundreds of thousands of troops will be centered on the ancient city of Wuyan to launch the largest battle since the Battle of Tanyuan, known in history: the Battle of the Ancient City of Wuyan.

Beginning the next day, the Liaoxia coalition army began to launch a tentative attack on the ancient city of Wuyan, while the Great Song army relied on the ancient city of Wuyan and launched a stubborn counterattack.

The two sides began a fierce battle in the area of the ancient city of Wuyan, and the battle was very intense. Fifty miles west of Youzhou City, 50,000 elite Song troops had quietly arrived here, eyeing the Liaoxia coalition army outside Youzhou City.

Tens of thousands of Great Song Huben in Youzhou City, while resisting the offensive of the enemy army outside the city, are secretly accumulating strength, waiting for the opportunity to strike a fatal blow.
