Chapter 461: This Siege Must Be Resolved

Huizhou New Town, the war is scorching, and the party is attacking the city, as before, still fearless of death. Even children in their early teens struggle to climb wooden ladders.

The party and the Song have had a grudge for nearly a hundred years, and almost every household of the party has been killed or wounded in battle, and this kind of hatred is already difficult to resolve.

Like the ten-year-old boy who braved the rain of arrows and rocks to climb the city with a sword in his hand, because his father had died in battle here a few years earlier.

The sorrow of war! It is nothing more than the hostility and hatred of each other for generations, until one side is completely defeated, and the family and country are empty, that is, the end of hatred.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the party has been inseparable from the Great Song Dynasty, but I don't know why the party is such a national strategy. The party members do not go west or north, but only go south to fight with the Song Dynasty, and the truth is really difficult to understand.

If the Western Xia opened up its territory to the west, it would definitely be much better than fighting with the Song Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, and it would also have a lot of gains. The Uighurs and other places were naturally not party opponents. Xing Dang Xiang clan was too influenced by the Han civilization, and Li Tang was even more subservient to the Central Plains Dynasty, that is, the text is the structure and penmanship of Chinese characters, and there is such a concept of China in his heart, and the wild land is probably not in his eyes.

Or perhaps, the party is also fighting to relieve internal pressure, although the party is the Tuoba tribe alone, but there are also seven other tribes, only war can unite the internal and effectively control the remaining seven tribes. Dang Xiang Tuoba royal family, surnamed Tang Li, is also the current name. It's just that these still can't explain why the party members have to fight to the death with the Northern Song Dynasty, there are many goals of the war, the Northern Song Dynasty is naturally the most strategically unvaluable target for the party, and it is also the most powerful target. The reason for this is a mystery.

The Dangxiang clan is not really a clan, most of them are Qiang people from various tribes, and the Dangxiang Tuoba clan should be the descendants of the Xianbei and Qiang people, and now these eight ethnic groups are collectively referred to as Dangxiang, but in the territory of Western Xia, there are also Han people, Uighurs, Tubo people, Uighurs and other ethnic minorities.

Liu Fa did not go up to the city, but only sat down at the base of the wall, and when he was old, he could no longer go up and down the city wall.

The fighting and wailing were all in his ears, but he couldn't make this veteran frown, and ordered the soldiers to run back and forth all over the city, and Liu Fa only nodded slightly in response.

The 100,000 party members attacked head-on, then besieged on all sides on the second day, and attacked on all sides for the next few days. The party casualties were also heavy, but the offensive became more and more fierce.

Liu Fa is as stable as Mount Tai, even if there are only more than 20,000 people within the high wall, but this high wall is the moat, there are still a lot of arrows in the city, and there are more than wooden rolling stones on the wall, everything is still under control.

When these things are slowly exhausted, it is the beginning of hand-to-hand combat, and the party members will eventually climb to the top of the city.

Liu Fa knows the rhythm of all this, and he also has a lot of trust in the soldiers under his command.

Zheng Zhi led his troops across Luoshui, and a stone in his heart was finally put down, and if he crossed the Yellow River and Luoshui, there was only the official road to gallop, and he lived Yongxing, which was Qin Feng.

When the soldiers and horses were regrouped, Zheng Zhizheng wanted to give the order to be pulled.

The two scouts galloped over with the other two horsemen, and stepped forward to report: "Xianggong, General Yang Keshi has crossed the river from Huayin and is heading north, these two people are the scouts under General Yang." ”

When Zheng Zhi heard this, he hurriedly asked, "How many men did General Yang bring?" ”

"Back to the prime minister, the general has brought seven hundred soldiers, and he can get here in one day." Yang Keshi's subordinate scout replied.

Yang Keshi finished suppressing the rest of Fangla in Xuanzhou and other places in the south of the Yangtze River, and soon after returning to the north, he heard the party item Koubian in Tokyo, and asked to bring troops back to help, and the family was all in Huangzhou, and he was anxious all the way, and his movements were not slow.

Xihe Lanhuang is the collective name of the four states, Xizhou, Hezhou, Lanzhou, and Huangzhou. In fact, there are also Xining Prefecture, Jishi Army, Langzhou and other places. Further west of Qin Feng is the Xihe Lanhuang.

When Zheng Zhi heard this, he ordered: "You go back quickly to report, so you will not wait for General Yang here, and order him to meet me in Weizhou as soon as possible." ”

"The little one will definitely pass the military order to it." When the scout had answered, he got up and mounted his horse, and hurried south again.

Zheng Zhi is also a quick starter. After two days, he entered Gyeongju, and he had already reached the original sphere of influence of the Seed Master, and Zheng Zhi also had many Qingzhou veterans under his command.

Among Gyeongju, there are more than 2,000 Gyeongju veterans and 3,000 Yan'an veterans. As soon as Zheng Zhi arrived, he naturally took him on the road.

Transit through Yuanzhou, and gather two thousand.

Weizhou is in front of him, Zheng Zhi rushed all the way to the 20th, suffering his sons, and even more suffering the healthy horses.

Weizhou is still the same Weizhou, but Weizhou no longer has a family.

Before getting closer, Zheng Zhi pulled the horses and ordered his subordinates to repair the military camp outside the city, and he took his own soldiers straight to the city.

A person at the gate of the city recognized Zheng Zhi from a distance and rushed forward to greet him.

Zheng Zhi saw a person running over, stared at it for a moment, and recognized it, and when he got closer, Zheng Zhi opened his mouth and smiled: "Radar, you are so sharp-eyed, you can recognize me from such a distance." ”

Radar also had a smiling face, and arched his hand and said: "I heard early that Zheng Xianggong is coming, the little one has been guarding this city gate for more than 20 days, and finally Xianggong is here, Xianggong went to Tokyo, and the north is in a big war again, and the people in the city are panicking, and they are looking forward to Zheng Xianggong being able to arrive in Weizhou as soon as possible." ”

When Zheng Zhi saw the ancients, his heart was not bad, and he asked: "You are busy catching heads, you were just cleaning the sheep dung in the city, but now you have begun to guard the city gate." ”

"Alas... The soldiers and soldiers in the city have all been transferred, and now the city gates are guarded by the yacha, I heard that the war in the north is becoming more and more anxious, and the little ones are also restless every day, if the prince is still in the northwest, we will not be so worried. "Naturally, there is a complaint in the words of the radar, when the Planter Dao is here, no matter what the Northland looks like, it will not be Weizhou City's turn to worry.

When Zheng Zhi heard this, his brows also furrowed, and Zheng Zhi also knew the strategy of cultivating the Dao to strengthen the wall and clear the wilderness, and Zheng Zhi also knew it in Tong Guan's handwriting. The strategy is naturally no problem, if Zheng Zhi is to plan, this plan is also the best, there is no better way than this. However, this strategy of clearing the wilderness will inevitably give up a large amount of territory, and this matter will be the bane when it comes to Tokyo.

Zheng Zhi looked back and thought, if this strategy had been played directly in Tokyo at the beginning, would it have been a different result? Regardless of whether there is time or not, do it first and then do it, will the Dao of the Planter be less of this calamity?

The answer is probably no, everything is imminent, and it will take thirty or forty days to go back and forth across Malaysia, not to mention that it will not be too late to retreat. Even if it was time, Zhao Ji in Tokyo probably wouldn't agree to this plan, just because those ministers and Zhao Ji in Tokyo thought in their hearts that there were still tens of thousands of troops in the northwest, and the party was just the end of the crossbow. Where is Zhao Ji willing to give up this large piece of land that he has only obtained with great difficulty, and where will he give up this great achievement of expanding the territory that can be written about in the history books.

Even Tong Guan probably thought the same way, the party items were driven to the west of the desert, and the elite was lost, so there was no need to worry. If you are not on the ground, it is difficult to know the whole picture. Too many victories will always give people the illusion of contempt for the enemy.

If this plan fails in Tokyo, the Planter Dao will have to be stationed in one city and one pond, and the northwest will probably fall into a complete loss. At that time, the planter did not return to Beijing to report on his work, and Tong Guan at that time was afraid that he would also end up miserable. If the plan is not passed, and the Planter Dao does it again, the consequences will be the same, and there will be another major crime of disrespecting the will.

At the beginning of Tong Guan's recommendation of the seed master, this matter seemed to be doomed.

If you really want to find out where the joints are, maybe there is no Xu Shida from Tokyo, and all this probably won't be the case.

Zheng Zhi entered Weizhou, and the Jinglue Mansion also opened its doors to work, raise food and salaries, and organize soldiers, everything was run in an orderly manner, and it was obviously arranged very properly when the planter left.

It's just that this Jingluo Mansion no longer has a Jingluo Gong.

Without Weizhou, which is a strategic match, there is no meaning for Zheng Zhi's war.

Zheng Zhi entered the Jingluo Mansion and sent several documents to various places, urging the gathering of soldiers. Then he took his horse out of the city and returned to the barracks to repair.

Yang Keshi finally arrived, and he commanded more than 700 Huangzhou soldiers. Go straight to the camp and see you.

Early in the morning of the second day, Zheng Zhi led his troops to Pingxia City, and on the way, he collected 2,000 veterans from Zhenrong Military Prefecture and Shunde Military Prefecture.

In Pingxia City, Liu Zhengyan was anxious every day and couldn't sleep all night, his father was fighting in Huizhou New Town, Zheng Zhi couldn't wait for the left and right.

Now that the new city is besieged, even the military intelligence report can't come out, and the only news that Liu Zhengyan can receive is the words brought back by the scout: The city is not broken.

The restless Liu Zhengyan was pacing left and right in the lobby, and the soldiers rushed to report: "Little Liu Xianggong, Zheng Xianggong's army has arrived, and there are still twenty miles away from the city." ”

Liu Zhengyan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said in his mouth: "Hurry, hurry, hurry up and follow me to greet you." ”

After saying that, Liu Zhengyan galloped out of the house, hit the horse and left, and a dozen or so personal soldiers on the left and right followed out.

"Liu Zhengyan, the son of Liu Fa, visited Zheng Xianggong. He also asked Zheng Xianggong to quickly lead his troops to Huizhou New Town to relieve the siege of his father. Liu Zhengyan almost flew down from his horse, and after getting down, he knelt on one knee on the ground, thinking that he only wanted the Zheng Xianggong in front of him to go to Huizhou quickly and save his father as soon as possible.

When Zheng Zhi heard this, he felt a little relieved, that is, from Liu Zhengyan's words, he knew that the new city had not yet fallen. He only said: "You get on the horse first, and quickly enter the city to talk in detail." ”

Liu Zhengyan hurriedly got on the horse, Zheng Zhi saw the eagerness on Liu Zhengyan's face, and the horse step was a lot faster.

Sitting at the yamen in the city, Zheng Zhi opened his mouth and asked, "How many days has Old Xianggong Liu been in Huizhou?" ”

"My father has been in Huizhou for 20 days, and the war has been going on for more than 10 days, and the fierce battle is not stopped, and the party is attacking day by day, even a letter cannot come out, and the soldiers in the city will inevitably fall into a bitter battle at this time, and the city is about to be destroyed, and I ask Zheng Xianggong to support quickly." Liu Zhengyan unconsciously added a sentence in his words, "The city is about to be broken", which is also the worry in Liu Zhengyan's heart, worrying day and night that the new city will be broken.

Hearing this, Zheng Zhi nodded, and said: "You can rest assured that Old Minister Liu is the best at guarding the city, and the new city will be worry-free at this time. ”

Zheng Zhi was also comforting Liu Zhengyan in his words, but he also knew in his heart that after ten days of high-intensity siege, the city defense had probably reached a critical point.

However, these soldiers under his command were really tired from rushing all the way, and they must take more rest before the battle, and they should not rush into battle.

The new city is at the junction of Huizhou and Xi'an Prefecture, from Pingxia to Pingxia, the fast horse will arrive in two days, as long as it arrives, the war will start.

In Pingxia City, there is also someone who is waiting anxiously, it is Xu Shida, but it is naturally not Zheng Zhi who is waiting.
