Gangneung Fortress.

The military situation is like fire, and the urgent report is coming. The battle report was sent to Ezhou by boat, then changed to a fast horse, and galloped in the starry night.

A small red flag was planted behind the fast horse, and he entered from the west gate of Gangneung City, and galloped on the avenue without the slightest hint of ease, and went straight to the Privy Council.

All the way down the street, people were stirred upside down, chickens flew and dogs jumped, and cursing sounded one after another. But there are also some people who look at the back of the fast ride, revealing a worried look. There are many powerful children in Gangneung City, these people may be incompetent, but they are psychic, and they should have a lot of knowledge. They all know what it means to be in a military emergency.

That's a lot of accidents!

Since I didn't hear the dew along the way, the chances of a big victory were slim. Then there will be only big defeats and sudden crises.

"The privy council was in a hurry, and the brothers of the Tongling family rebelled and led the army to the north--" He also intercepted a transport team docked in Tongling, and transported all the military rations and military supplies in his hands across the Yangtze River.

Yu Cavalry rushed directly into the lobby of the Privy Council in a hurry, and a sentence shocked everyone in the hall.

"What a fold, what a fold......" Zheng Juzhong's face was full of blood, and his eyes were only black.

The land of Tongling is of course not very important, because in the middle of March, the Manichaeans had retreated from Jinling City, and Jinling City had fallen into the hands of the Western Army, which was a great joy for the imperial court.

Fang La was also helpless. The small species all broke Shezhou from Chizhou to the south, and the latter was Fang La's hometown. The mountains and ravines are crisscrossed, rugged and difficult to walk, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Manichaean general Shi Bao led troops to garrison here. Logically infallible. But after all, the Manichaeans underestimated the Western army, which also fought in the Hengshan area all the year round, and was also accustomed to fighting in the mountains, especially the feudal soldiers under their command. Shi Bao suffers a loss here.

As soon as Shezhou is broken, the small kind of soldiers can be directed at Hangzhou, how can Fang La still be willing to make a hard top in Jinling City?

Jinling City is very important, but Hangzhou is even more important. As soon as it was lost, Fang La's territory was cut off. Besides, Fang Lawu was thinking about defeating the Western Army, as long as Lu Qian could win in the northwest as soon as possible, and the Western Army was in turmoil, there would still be hope for Manichaeism!

With such a plan in mind, he is not willing to lose too many troops. At the moment, from the north of Jinling City, he retreated by waterway and moved to the area east of Taihu Lake with Suzhou as the core, and fought with the Western Army.

The victory of Jinling City can be said to be a shot in the arm for the panicked Jiangling Imperial Court, sweeping away the panic caused by Lu Qian's flying troops arriving in Yan'an Mansion.

But now, when the situation in these two battlefields is very good, the brothers of the Zhe family fiercely led the Tongling defenders to surrender to the Liangshan army, which really gave the Jiangling court a blow.

"Nafu Prefecture has been lost, and the family has surrendered to thieves, and it can be begged and saved, that is, it is not credible." At the beginning, Zhao Ji asked Guo Zhongxun to lead troops to build a new army in the imperial camp, and selected Yao Pingzhong, Liu Qi, Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan and others as the commanders of the imperial camp, but he forgot about the fold at the same young age, and the actual intention has been revealed.

"The old man had already deliberately dismantled the military power, and chose to elect high-ranking officials to be honored, but there were shameless and greedy people, who spoke flatteringly, deceived the saints, and the instructor's family showed tolerance, leaving two scourges, so that today's calamity." There are three or four thousand western troops under the command of Fold Ke Ke and Fold Ke Save, as well as thousands of new troops recruited from Jiangnan, which is also a force.

Zheng Juzhong was dealing with the official documents, and when he heard the changes in Tongling, he sat down on the chair dejectedly. In this good situation, he was suddenly stabbed, which made people extremely painful.

Deng Xunwu, who also knew the Privy Council, took the letter, and as soon as he read the "snap ......" halfway, he threw the report on the table.

This is bad luck.

But now is not the time to be angry, the Tongling defenders rebelled, which seemed to give great courage to the Liangshan army on the opposite side, and a small fleet was immediately used in Chaohu Lake, out of the mouth of the water, and the Yangtze River waterway was blocked.

At present, the main force of the Song Army's naval division is still Liu Menglong's department, and although the naval division in Jinghu South Road, that is, Dongting Lake, is already under construction, the results are obviously unknown due to lack of money and food. In this way, the main force of the Song Army's naval division is in Jiangning Mansion, and the small naval fleet killed by the mouth of the river is not the king without tigers and monkeys in the mountains.

The privy envoys, the same knowledge of the Privy Council, and the important ministers such as the secretary of the military department entered the palace in a swarm, which was already eye-catching. Then the bell rang in front of the palace, and there was a loud bang, and the officials in the political hall also rushed to the palace in a hurry.

In Tokyo and Xijing, although the government hall was set up in the forbidden city, the conditions in Gangneung Castle were poor, so they were separated.

The bell rang in front of the palace, which frightened the civil and military people all over the city, and for a while I don't know how many pairs of eyes stared at the palace.

"Quick, get someone to the Privy Council to investigate!" Wang Dingliu, Yan Qing and others lurking in the city also jumped up suddenly, and hurriedly ordered people to go down.

At this time, in the land of Guanxi, at the border of the northern frontier, countless Western Xia troops outside Yinzhou City have poured in.

Without the need for a clairvoyant mirror, standing on a high city wall and looking at the boundless sea of people in the north with just the naked eye is enough to make people shake. It's really boundless and overwhelming.

Black figures obscured the view, dust obliterated the sun, and the earth groaned under the horse's hooves.

"It's spectacular!" Forty or fifty years have passed, and he has been fighting the same, but he has never seen so many people.

The 300,000 army of Western Xia had its own water, but at least half of it was still real. Such a scene is really huge! It makes people have a goosebump-giving shiver.

It's a big deal, and it's not the slightest timidity. Yes, there were a lot of Western Xia soldiers. But he wasn't empty. What's more, King Lu is now in Mizhi Village, although there are not many troops gathered there, Lu Qian can lead the horse army all the way to northern Shaanxi, but the army in the Heluo region can't do this. But what is the identity of the people?

King Lu dares to gamble, he can be a big life and a ball?

Brother Richard beat the city of Yinchuan, looked at the folded flag at the head of the city, looked at the dozen heads hanging on the head of the city, and snorted angrily. "Old horseman, presumptuous!" How dare you insult him like this? Hang the heads of the dead Western Xia nobles......

It's just that the hatred on both sides is as deep as the sea, and when he saw the word 'fold', Brother Richard didn't even have the leisure to ask someone to scold the battle. With a wave of his hand, he called the sergeants to attack and kill.

This time, he came to Yinzhou and brought a lot of troops. It is the absolute main force of the Western Xia lord - the guards and pro-army, he has brought tens of thousands of foot cavalry, as well as more than 30,000 captive troops and 100,000 tribal troops. Although the latter has not yet been fully assembled, and has sent a group of soldiers and horses to kill Yongle City, he also has fifty or sixty thousand horsemen under his command at this moment.

In Richard's eyes, this Liangshan army was at an absolute disadvantage, because they still had Zhao Song, an ally in the south.

In Yan'an City, some soldiers and horses have been gathered recently. Taken together, that's more than 200,000.

But how many Liangshan troops are there? The cavalry that followed the land thieves to northern Shaanxi, no matter how many they were, they were 10,000 horsemen. Even if it is the infantry army recently transferred from Hedong, the total strength may only be 40,000 or 50,000.

How could this be their opponent?

Richard knew what that meant.

As long as they can completely defeat the Liangshan army, which is far less numerous than themselves, and even kill Lu Qian, the influence of this battle will directly change the trend of the situation in the Central Plains before the follow-up army of the Liangshan army arrives.

As soon as Lu Qian died, as far as the children he left behind, he couldn't speak, how could he sit firmly? The scene of Zhao Kuangyin's Chen Qiao mutiny will not be repeated in Yidu. It is more likely that the Liangshan army will fall apart, and the huge Central Plains will once again fall into a state of hegemony.

At that time, Western Xia may not be able to take advantage of the chaos to get a piece of the pie. Although he knew that if he wanted to kill Lu Qian, the possibility was far more difficult than defeating the Liangshan army here.

Man is not a stone, but has legs.

Not to mention the tumbling thoughts in Richard's heart, just see the black and oppressive Western Xia soldiers camped outside the city, and a series of camps directly surrounded Yinzhou City to the front and rear regiments.

This Yinzhou is located at the confluence of the Mingtang River and the Wuding River, but it is not at its intersection, but south of the Wuding River. Because the intersection is high, the loess wall of the two rivers is as straight as a knife, forming a high platform as high as a hundred feet. The terrain is like the dense mulberry plain of Hangu Pass and the Lintoe plain of Tongguan, and there are more than three or four hundred vast flat land on it.

It stands to reason that this should be an excellent place to build a fortified city, but unfortunately, there is a shortage of water, and there is a serious shortage of water.

Therefore, Yinzhou, the former military village, was set at the southern end of the Wuding River, with the purpose of blocking the Wuding River from the Hengshan Mountains. Later, when the river evolved, the southeast of the old city was flooded, and the west was a high mountain and deep ravine, so the Tanguts moved the city to the northwest.

Now this place is surrounded by the Western Xia Corps, but as long as it is not conquered by the Western Xia Army, the transportation and passage of the Western Xia Army will always be under the bow and crossbow of Yinzhou City.

Unless they can march from the north bank of the Wuding River, where the Mingtang River converges, but there are deep ravines and ravines, it is also extremely difficult to travel. At least the baggage can't be done.

If it weren't for such benefits, why did the original Song army set up a village here?

Brother Cha slept as usual at night, and only ordered to go down, and told people to be on duty at night, and they must be cautious and not careless. In this way, at the time of the fourth watch, the Xixia soldiers on duty at night saw a small noise at the head of Yinzhou City, a few torches were shining, and a group of soldiers appeared at the head of the city, and about more than 100 soldiers dressed in black were hung by them to hang ropes down the city, as if they were going to take advantage of the night to sneak attack the army of the Tanguts.

The Western Xia soldiers on duty at night couldn't believe their eyes, this Han man was not afraid of death. Just this kind of person dared to come to the camp.

Seeing that more than a hundred black shadows had reached the middle of the city wall and were about to land, he hurriedly sent out a warning signal to remind the enemy of the imminent attack.

"Enemy attack on the city?" Li Heda, the former commander of the army, hurriedly ran out of the big tent, climbed the high platform in the camp, and looked from a distance, the expression on his face was cloudy and uncertain, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Commander, the enemy has been shot." A moment later, a Western Xia general rushed to the road.

found that Li Heda's face was full of seriousness.
