"Zhengchen, tell me, what is the current battle situation?"

Seeing Lin Chong asking, Wang Yu didn't hide too much, and directly introduced the battle situation of the Songxia Battle immediately.

Speaking of the Song Dynasty's war of annihilation against the Western Xia, for the two sides involved in the war, it has indeed reached the most critical time, when it is time to compete for endurance and perseverance and luck.

To put it simply, the Song Dynasty relied on its vast land and wealth, and almost did its best to support the Western Army, and a steady stream of materials and people were transported to the Song-Xia border.

Relying on these manpower and material resources, in addition to the defenders stationed in various places, the remaining 100,000 Western troops under the command of Tong Guan adopted the tactics of hardening the village and fighting in a daze, and a few miles of a village, all the way from the Hengshan area and the Hehuang area to Xingqingfu, the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom.

First of all, at the beginning of November last year, the Western Army entered the Shuofang land of Western Xia (that is, Lingzhou, Xiping Mansion of Western Xia), and defeated more than 10,000 Western Xia elites led by Li Chage, the king of Western Xia Jin, and severely damaged the Western thief Iron Harrier, and then successfully occupied the land of Shuofang and gained a firm foothold.

In this way, the front of the Western Army was less than a hundred miles away from Xingqingfu, the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom, and the Western Xia naturally fought back frantically, but the Western Army also relied on strong fortifications many times, as well as the thunderbolt and chariot formations that Lin Chong asked Huan Yi to dedicate to the Song Dynasty to repel the fierce offensive of the Western Xia.

After tugging with each other, after the New Year, in late March this year, the Western Army repaired the stockade all the way to the edge of the Xingqing Mansion city wall, and began to build permanent fortifications, dig trenches, build stone walls, and surround Xingqing Mansion, it has been seven months.

Speaking of which, this is exactly the same as the tactics of the original historical time and space, when the Jurchen army besieged Taiyuan City, the Qing army besieged the Daling River, and the Hunan army of Zeng Guofan besieged the Taiping army.

As a result, Wang Yu held on to Taiyuan City for more than eight months with a very small number of troops; The Ming army was relatively weak, holding out for less than four months; The Second Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Hunan army fought for two years, and finally Tianjing City (Nanjing) was broken by the Hunan army.

Although all three examples are the result of the fall of the city at the end, it is really difficult to say whether the winner or loser is really discussed, otherwise it would not be so difficult to fight every time.

In this case, it is basically impossible for the encircled side to break through the trench wall outside the city and the enemy's superior forces and break through alone, and the most important thing to win is to rely on reinforcements.

And if the encircling side wants to achieve victory, the most important thing is to see if it can repel reinforcements.

As Wang Yu introduced to Lin Chong, the Western Army dug trenches outside Xingqing Mansion, built walled walls, and built one hard village after another to surround Xingqing Mansion.

But on the other hand, the Western Army besieging Xingqing Mansion was also surrounded by a larger army of Western thieves at the same time, and Western Xia also had a cavalry advantage, which could rely on the mobility of cavalry to harass the supply lines of the Western Army along the way.

Although the Western Army repaired the stockade all the way to the foot of Xingqing Mansion, and temporarily built a semi-permanent city with a masonry structure at intervals, after all, there was no way to build a stockade next to each other, and it was impossible for so many soldiers to guard these villages.

Therefore, if the Western Army wants to transport soldiers, horses and supplies all the way to the village at the foot of Xingqing Mansion, it will cost a considerable price, and it will need to send troops to escort it every time.

Thanks to the design of thunderbolts and chariot arrays for the Song Dynasty at the beginning, most of the harassment of the Western thieves was in vain, or when the chariots were about to be broken at great cost, the reinforcements of the Western Army arrived in time.

Otherwise, the Western Army would have been unable to hold on to the huge price paid for this transportation alone.

In addition to harassing supply lines, the western thieves never stopped attacking the stockades and semi-permanent cities along the way.

And as Xingqing Mansion was besieged for longer and longer, the offensive of these western thieves became more and more fierce every time.

According to Wang Yu, during this time, I heard that the 30,000 cavalry of the Liangshan Army was about to arrive, and these western thieves probably also felt that the death of the country was imminent, and they became more and more desperate and fearless to death when they started fighting.

After listening to Wang Yu's introduction, especially when talking about the tragic image of the village after it was breached, Yang Zaixing, who came over to listen to it, was suddenly angry: "The western thief who entered the mother dared to do this, and he would insult the corpse if he killed someone!" Brother Command, let's go kill all these bitches now! ”

Lin Chong's heart was also uncomfortable, and his chest was also burning with anger, but as the lord of an army, the city government and concentration were naturally much stronger than Yang Zaixing.

It was Lin Chong who suppressed his anger and roared: "It's just the madness before death, the country of robbers in Western Xia is dead this time, the more crazy they are now, the more they will regret it in the future!" Don't worry about Zaixing, and let them live a few more days, and then you will kill some of the thieves! ”

Wang Yu heard Lin Chong's words, looked at Lin Chong's firm eyes, and roughly guessed that Lin Chong had already had a countermeasure, so he asked: "Lin Jiedu, I don't know if there is a strategy to break the enemy, let the last general listen to it first?" ”

Lin Chong's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he became more and more determined in his strategy for Pingxia this time, but he didn't immediately tell Wang Yu, but looked ahead and said, "Weizhou City is about to be fought, let's talk about it in front of Xuan Shuai." ”

Wang Yu found that Weizhou City was in front of him, and he didn't say much at the moment, and accompanied Lin Chong to the front of the city, after some formalities, Lin Chong returned to the next more than 700 knights and was arranged to rest in a barracks, and Lin Chong was directly invited by Wang Yu to the Weizhou Bureau.

After introducing everyone's identities, Tong Guan didn't ask the same question anymore, and asked how the 30,000 cavalry of the Liangshan Army came to Kansai this time and prepared to fight.

This time, Lin Chong did not refuse, and directly went straight to the point and said the combat strategy of the Liangshan Army: "Shuai Xuan, everyone!" This time, 30,000 Liangshan cavalry came to Guanxi, and I was going to leave 10,000 cavalry, commanded by General Wang Huan and General Wang Wende, to help the Western Army protect the military villages along the way.

The general led the remaining 20,000 Liangshan iron cavalry, using the tactics of Huo Qubing in the Western Han Dynasty to defeat the Xiongnu, without bringing grain and grass baggage, lightly armed, going deep into the hinterland of Western Xia, attacking the tribes of the Western thieves and plundering the Quartet, every time we broke through a city and a tribe of the Western Thieves, we robbed their horses, cattle and sheep, plundered their population, and burned their grain......"

As soon as Lin Chong's words came out, everyone in the government office was shocked, and then looked at Lin Chong's gaze, which was already murderous and aggressive, and everyone only felt that ......
