What can I do?

The big Liao ministers who were called up to "have nightmares" at night, you look at me, I look at you, all of them are at a loss.

Song Jun must be powerful!

There is a consensus on this.

Not to mention the Song Army on Hebei East Road, those guys are not as strong as the Song Army, but like the elite soldiers of the Heavenly Khan Li Shimin. Well, the armored cavalry assault, and it is like a wall, and the wheels are fighting! What's even more hateful is that there will be a very "scared horse" gunpowder weapon, which scares the war horses of the Daliao knights everywhere...... Needless to say.

is the "weak soldiers" led by the general of the Song State named Zhong Fu, who are less than 20,000, and they are also very powerful, and it is very difficult to deal with after building a hard village!

Although the Great Liao Heavenly Soldiers in the Battle of Anyang Koupu wiped out their entire army, it was more than 80,000 to 10,000, a five-fold advantage in troops, or a north-south attack, and in the end they were killed and seriously wounded in the early 5,000s - this is not including the losses of the Jingzhou soldiers!

Five thousand is not much, but it can't stand that the Khitans are an ethnic minority! Moreover, he is superstitious about Buddhism, and now he can fight only three or four hundred thousand, and he lost one-sixty or seventy-tenth of a battle, and he still fought with the weak brigade of the Song army. How can this be endured?

Zhong Fu's weak soldiers built a hard village and fought out 5,000 Yelu Yanxi people (mainly Khitans, but also a small number of Han troops), and the strong soldiers of Wu Haogu built a fortress outside the city of Xijin Mansion, I am afraid that 500,000 dead and wounded may not be able to be flattened......

Can the Khitans die for 500,000? If you die 150,000, you will have to destroy the country and the species!

Therefore, the hard village built by Wu Haogu outside the city of Xijin Mansion will definitely not be able to be defeated, which is not to be thought of.

As for using the Han army to fight...... The eyes of the Khitans were all on the loyal horseman. No one suspected that Ma Renwang was disloyal to Da Liao.

Because Ma Renwang was recognized as a good man, he was very popular when he was the magistrate of the county, and he could always find a reason to exempt the following from tax exemption and forced labor. Later, he became a big official, and he didn't know how much money he found for the big guy in Nanjing Dao, and he was unwilling to collect more taxes. Later, Yelu Yanxi wanted to avenge his parents and let the horse people look forward to "rebellion", and the old brother Ma always excused everyone, and he did not charge a benefit fee.

How can such a good person not be Da Liao Zhongliang?

Moreover, Ma Renwang's hometown is not in Yanjing, but in Yiwu Lushan in Zhongjing Road, if he wants to rebel against the Great Liao Kingdom, then the whole family will suffer.

So everyone looked at him and wanted him to come up with an idea, after all, among the ministers who followed Yelu Yanxi's personal expedition, Ma Renwang knew the most about the internal situation of Nanjing Dao and the Song Kingdom.

Ma Renwang actually didn't want to speak, he knew his identity, he was not a Khitan hinterland, but just a Han man, but everyone looked at him, he had to say a few words.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there are two priorities, one is to transfer troops into Yanjing as soon as possible, there are more than 200,000 Han people in Yanjing City, and there are only more than 10,000 Khitan soldiers and horses, and they are not the elite who can endure hard battles, in case there are changes inside and outside, Yanjing will be lost!

The second is to negotiate peace with Song Guo as soon as possible, and hurry up to negotiate peace while we still have some chips in our hands...... As long as the tie is completed, Wu Haogu's army outside Yanjing City will naturally retreat. ”

The idea is still good!

Inspired by him, Xiao Fengxian, who was originally blank in his mind, also had an idea, and said: "Your Majesty, we can negotiate peace while transferring troops to Yanjing." As long as Yanjing City is well guarded, we are not afraid to fight the Song people to the end. ”

"Where are the troops from?" Yelu Yanxi asked.

"You can mobilize Xi Minister's elite troops from the Xi Wangfu in Zhongjing Province to settle in Yanjing."

The so-called Xi Wangfu is actually not a princely mansion, but a yamen that manages the tribe, and it governs the six departments of King Xi. is also a group of Khitan people surnamed Xiao who originally belonged to the Xi people. The six tribes of King Xi and the Khitan tribes under the jurisdiction of the King of the Southern Courtyard and the King of the Northern Courtyard are combined, which is the elite of the Great Liao State second only to the palace army.

In fact, the palace division army that is really pulled into the battlefield, well-equipped, and pampered (relatively speaking) is not comparable to the tribal army of bitter haha.

However, out of the need to strengthen the centralization of power, the Khitan court has been using the establishment of palace guards to weaken the tribes for more than a hundred years, and has continuously cut off the elite soldiers and land of the Khitan and Xi tribes and filled them into the newly established palace guards.

Therefore, there was an embarrassing situation in the Khitan country in which the tribal army that could fight was weakened from generation to generation, and the warriors who were transferred from the tribe to the palace tent were gradually retired.

This time, Yelu Yanxi didn't want to really fight, he just wanted to scare people and spend some more money, so he didn't mobilize the tribal army, but took his palace division army out of the horse, and the result was tragic.

Therefore, the troops who want to be transferred to Yanjing City to fight tough battles can no longer be drawn from the palace army, but must be mobilized from the tribal army.

"Okay, just drop the soldiers and horses of King Xi's mansion!" Yelu Yanxi said, "Let Xiao Yaomai, the governor of the palace of Zhixi, lead the troops into Yanjing." In addition, where is the departure of the new army that suggested that it should be imitated by the Song Dynasty? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Xiao Hui is now the Northern Female Zhenxiang and knows the affairs of the Xianzhou Road." Xiao Feng replied first.

"Let him take over the affairs of the Zhixi Palace, and order him to train 5,000 Xi troops in Tiele Prefecture for mobilization!"

Yelu Yanxi paused, "As for the peace talks...... Nor should you show weakness on your own initiative. It's better to wave the army to attack Baozhou, Ansu Army, and Guangxin Army first! Centaur Look! ”

"The minister is here."

"I ordered Er to command the eight battalions of the Han army and the Jingzhou soldiers of Nanjing Dao, and attack Baozhou City first."

"Commandment." The centaur received the decree respectfully. No, he is like a mirror in his heart, Da Liao Tianzi wants to hand over a letter of nomination from his own family!

……

Zhao Ji, who changed into the regular clothes of the Son of Heaven, walked into the side hall of the Chongzheng Palace, which was the palace where the map table was placed. Zhang Shuye and Wang Yu were already waiting there, their faces were not very good-looking, and they didn't know if they didn't sleep well or got some bad news.

Seeing Zhao Ji walk in, the two first bowed and saluted, and then Uncle Zhang said: "Your Majesty, Hebei East Road is a great victory!" ”

"A big victory?" Zhao Ji was stunned, "How big?" ”

"A very big victory!" Wang Yu said in a loud voice, "Hebei Xuanfu Division reported that from July 21 to 22, Zhao Zhongge and Murong Parrot commanded an army of 30,000 people, and fought a fierce battle with about 30,000 or 40,000 Khitan soldiers and horses between the Sanggan River and the Gaoliang River under Yanjing City, and won a complete victory, beheading 5,451 armor, capturing more than 4,000 war horses, more than 5,000 armor and leather armor, and capturing more than 800 people...... Your Majesty, this is a great victory! ”

"Yanjing City...... Where is it? Zhao Ji hurriedly walked to the map table.

Zhang Shuye pointed to a wooden sign placed on the south side of Yanjing City on the map with a thin wooden pole, "Your Majesty, it's here." ”

"So close to Yanjing City?" Zhao Ji took a breath, "Wouldn't that be able to attack the city?" ”

"There will be no siege for the time being," Uncle Zhang said at night, "Hebei Xuanfu Division has insufficient troops, and it is difficult to capture Yanjing City." Therefore, Wu Haogu planned to build a large camp between the rivers under Yanjing City. Other than that...... He also wanted to ask for the position of Yanshan Road pacification envoy from His Majesty, and obtain the authority to appease Yandi Haoqiang. ”

Zhao Ji was stunned when he heard this, "What?" Can he take the land of swallows? Now, the Northern Expedition is now begins? ”

"Your Majesty," Uncle Zhang said at night, "now that the arrow is on the bow, I have to send it!" ”

Wang Yu also said: "Now is the time of life and death......

"Survive or die!?" Zhao Ji seemed to hear the voiceover, "What's going on?" Isn't it Zhong Fu ......?"

Zhang Shuye and Wang Yu looked at each other, and Zhang Shuye said, "There is no news from Zhong Fu's department yet...... However, the machine room of the General Army of the Xuanfu Division of Hebei reported that through the interrogation of prisoners of war, it was learned that the Liao people had invested as many as 80,000 troops on Dingzhou Road! ”

"Zhong Fu also has 40,000 people!" Zhao Ji shook his head, "As long as he can act in accordance with the "Step by Step Camp Map", there should be no big problem." What we have to worry about now is that Zhong Fu's department is running out of food! ”

If Zhong Fu really has 40,000 people, even if they are all waste-like Hebei troops, then Yelu Yanxi may not be able to clean him up.

Fighting a war is not a simple math, Yelu Yanxi can use 5,000 people to spell Zhong Fu 20,000 and 10,000 people to spell Zhong Fu 40,000.

Because the terrain of Anyangkoupu is narrow, and there are too many troops, if Zhong Fu has 40,000 people, he can let them take turns to rest and take turns to fight. Moreover, the hard fortress built by 40,000 people must be harder than that built by 20,000 people, and the casualties of the Liao army that attacked it will be too large for Yelu Yanxi to bear.

Hearing Zhao Ji's analysis, Zhang Shuye and Wang Yu had nothing to say.

In fact, the report of the general army engine room of the Xuanfu Division in Hebei has already determined that Zhong Fu's army has been annihilated - according to the analysis of Wu Haogu's military machine group, even if Zhong Fu's army has a hard village and occupies a relatively favorable terrain, it can only resist for two to three days. Unless you can enter the castle, there is absolutely no chance of survival.

So now you don't have to think about the problem of rescuing Zhong Fu's department! Instead, it is necessary to lay out a new defensive line on Hebei West Road as soon as possible......

According to the suggestion of the general army engine room of the Xuanfu Division of Hebei, the remnants of the officers and troops on the Hebei West Road should retreat to the line of Nanyishui and Hutuo River. Focus on defending Xiongzhou, Gaoyang Pass, the eastern part of the Yongning Army, Shenzhou, the southern part of Qizhou and the first line of Zhendingfu.

At the same time, speed up the formation of Hebei group training!

"What? To give up the Guangxin Army, the Ansu Army, Baozhou, half of the Yongning Army and half of Qizhou? ”

After listening to the suggestion of Hebei Xuanfu Division, Zhao Ji was suddenly a little annoyed. How can you give up so many states and counties? And Zhong Fu's 40,000 army can still be saved! If you give up now, you're losing your teacher!

"This Wu Haogu is getting more and more stupid!" Zhao Ji said, "Liang Zimei, Wang Yang and Han Xiaoxuan are all participating in him, what do you think?" ”

Zhang Shuye and Wang Yu were taken aback by Zhao Ji's question.

It's so ancient that you can't use force now! Hebei West Road has been eroded, and only the Hebei East Road under the personal command of Wu Haogu is in a good situation. If Wu Haogu is moved, and the situation on Hebei East Road is defeated again, then this battle will really be lost.

"Your Majesty, the minister is a martial artist," Wang Yu said busily, "such things must not be heard. ”

Uncle Zhang is not a martial artist, but he didn't dare to discuss this matter, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this matter should be discussed by the prime minister, not by the military aircraft." ”
