Chapter 758: Your Wife, I Raise It
"What a tiger!"
Receiving the news of the old fox's defeat, Wang Ningan was really a little surprised, after all, the old guy has led the army for decades, and he once competed with Di Qing, he is not an ordinary person, is he defeated too quickly?
"It's not strange that tigers don't bite when they're old." Wang Ningze sneered: "In order to expand his strength, Yeli Yuqi has recruited all his subordinates, and it seems that there are tens of thousands of people, but in fact, it is not as stable as the thousands of people who came at the beginning." Wei Minglang is going all out and fighting to the death, it is strange that he is undefeated. ”
Wang Ningan knew that what his brother said was reasonable, and he smiled: "Yeli Yu has been defeated, are you sure to defeat Wei Minglangyu?" ”
"Of course there is, and I think it's the best time to do it!"
Wang Ningze was full of fighting spirit, he came to the front of the sand table and pointed out the country...... Wei Minglang defeated the old fox, of course, it was a big threat, but he had to face a problem, that is, tens of thousands of people under the old fox.
Wei Minglangyu, who is thirsty for strength, will not let go of these people, especially the party soldiers among them, who will definitely be absorbed and reorganized into an army to deal with the Great Song Dynasty.
After all, after the foreign aid is cut off, this is almost the only way for Wei Minglang to replenish his people.
But the problem is that after the increase in troops, his grain and grass did not increase, and it turned out that Wei Minglang wanted to drag it until the snow fell and forced the Song army to retreat, but there were tens of thousands of more mouths, and the grain could only last until the beginning of August, or even shorter.
Therefore, Wei Minglang must choose the main decisive battle, defeat the Great Song Dynasty as soon as possible, and obtain foreign aid supplements.
"Yes, the analysis makes sense." Wang Ningan smiled and said: "Looking at it this way, it's a good thing that the old fox lost the battle." ”
"Do blessings and misfortunes depend on each other!" Wang Ningze continued: "Wei Minglang should have more than 60,000 people, but he doesn't have time to integrate, and it may not be a good thing if there are too many people. I thought that we should march immediately, don't hesitate, and take Ganzhou in the shortest possible time! ”
"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Wang Ningan asked casually.
Wang Ningze scratched his head, "Brother, don't you want to meet Prince Zhao?" ”
"That second goods!"
Wang Ning'an's old face turned red, but no, Zhao Zongjing has been going to the Western Regions for more than a year, and it was originally scheduled to be at the end of last year, and he was going to open up the Hexi Corridor, but because of strategic disputes, the army was affected, and as a result, Shengsheng threw a group of people in Western Xia for more than a year, leaving them alone to face the army of the Karakhanid.
There are friends, brothers, and disciples...... Thinking of them, Wang Ningan's old face flushed, and he felt sorry for people.
"So what are you waiting for, hurry up!"
In order to open up the trade route in the Western Regions, Wen Yanbo issued 10 million bonds and purchased sufficient military supplies.
Even ordinary soldiers had horses to walk around, and they marched along the Shandan River, with clear water at hand, and on both sides of the river, there were abundant water and grass, and many wild horses were infested.
When you see Song Jun, of course, you will flee from a distance, and you can only see the figures of these creatures through telescopes.
It's far from being as barren and desolate as many people imagine.
Wang Ningan casually pointed to a grassland next to the Shandan River and loudly announced that this would become his private horse farm!
The terrain is high, the water is clear and the grass is beautiful, open and flat, and it is an excellent horse farm!
As soon as he said this, others also shouted, as if it was not a war, but a spring outing.
"Lord Wang, I just received a secret report that the people and horses that Wei Minglang met were 50 miles away." Chen Shunzhi said in a low voice.
Wang Ningan's face changed, and he turned to smile, "He really went out, how many people came?" ”
"It should be no less than 50,000, it looks like it's pouring out."
"Well, we don't have to go any further, let's camp here, prepare the battlefield, and come to the duel!"
Although Wang Ningan was anxious to win, it was only his wish, in fact, the Song army was well supplied, and he could delay, so it seemed that he was in good time.
The Song army chose the best position, and they leaned one side towards the Shandan River.
In summer, the Shandan River flows violently and has a large amount of water, so there is no need to worry about someone crossing the river and sneaking up on the Song army, so the Song army only needs to guard against three aspects.
In the proof, Wang Ningan deployed 500 bed crossbows, and ordered the soldiers to dig three deep ditches one zhang wide and one hundred and fifty zhang long, and the distance between each deep ditch was one zhang and a half.
This arrangement has a profound meaning.
If the people of Western Xia come to attack, they must cross the deep ditch, and there are not many super war horses that can jump continuously and break through the three trenches, so they must pause, recharge, and jump again. The width of one zhang and five zhang does not give the war horse time to run at all, all the men and horses facing the trench, the Western Xia people and horses will definitely slow down, and lose their speed, and the cavalry is a huge target, waiting for the meat pieces of the bed crossbow to shoot!
The front was like this, with ditches on the sides and behind, and carriages were arranged, which were connected to each other to form a long wall, and the Song army hid in the protection and shot them with bows and crossbows.
In addition, Wang Ningan also reserved 5,000 iron cavalry as a mobile force, and 800 grenadiers to support at any time.
He set up a formation and waited for Wei Minglang to attack.
……
"Alas, Wang Ningan is not a generation of heroes after all, he took the initiative to attack, and he also chose a conservative combat method, which is really disgraceful! If it was Li Yuanhao at the beginning, he would definitely take the initiative to attack, strike first, beat the enemy to the ground, be embarrassed, and surrender on his knees! Then look at their heads, rob them of their wealth, and take possession of their women and pastures...... That's what a big hero does! ”
Ye Liyu looked at the formation of the Song army, shook his head slightly, and kept thinking in his heart.
He was defeated in the hands of Wei Minglang and vomited a mouthful of blood...... It turns out that after a few years of hard work, the old fox has also suffered a lot of dark injuries, and it has been holding on, and it has reached the verge of collapse, if it continues like this for another two or three years, it is estimated that it will hang.
But after spitting out a mouthful of blood, my heart was relaxed.
It is said that when he is old, he is willing to be nostalgic, he constantly remembers how heroic and chic he was when he fought the world with Li Yuanhao, it was the best time in his life.
Thinking about it a lot, even Li Yuanhao is not so resentful about destroying his clan.
Which hero is not covered with blood on his hands, not to mention the heroes of the grassland, even if he is a benevolent Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, what can he do?
Isn't it still necessary to depose the descendants and send troops to the army?
Especially when he saw Wei Minglangyu, the old fox seemed to see Li Yuanhao's shadow, if Li Yuanhao was still alive, with his talent and ability, he might be able to compete with Wang Ningan, as for Li Liangzuo, he was too young...... Ye Li Yu begged to shake his head, he looked very lonely.
This old guy has always been cautious and cunning, but he was betrayed by his own men and almost lost his life, why? Is it the old fox who has a false appearance?
Not really.
In Yeli Yuqi's heart, there has always been a Xixia dream, he took refuge in the Great Song Dynasty, in fact, he wanted to use the power of the Great Song Dynasty to be Li Yuanhao's second.
Because of this, he deliberately retained the soul of the party, and also acquiesced to his subordinates to publicize Li Yuanhao's achievements, which were used to inspire people and gather morale.
He calculated very far-reachingly, but he didn't expect it, and before he could take his place, he swallowed the bitter fruit first. How could those soldiers who were still thinking of Western Xia obey his orders and go against the Wei Ming clan!
The old fox is lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot.
Ye Li Yuqi was also in a very conflicted mood at the moment, and he couldn't figure out whether he hated Wang Ning'an more, or hated Wei Minglang more...... Perhaps this is the fate of all those who betray the Lord!
The two ends are not pleased, and the two ends are not people!
That's it!
Anyway, he was defeated this time, and there were not many people in his hands, Yeli Yuqi felt that with his previous merits, he could at least change to a hereditary martial arts, he still had a son, and there was hope, and Yeli was not dead, and that was enough.
From now on, I will return to the field, be safe and steady, and be an ordinary person, I think of it, I was imprisoned by the Great Song Dynasty for more than ten years, and it was also a very good day, I planted and ate myself, stable and comfortable, if no one stared at it, and then there were descendants around my knees, enjoying the family, it would be a fairy-like day......
Ye Li Yu beggar shook his head, turned around to go back to the tent, and suddenly found that there was one more person in front of him, a very strong person, Ye Li Yu Qi was a little surprised.
"You, who are you?"
"Hahaha, Yeli senior, you may not know me, after all, I was a child at that time, let me introduce myself, my name is Wuzang Hongyang, and I am a person from Wuzang!"
"Oh!"
The old fox immediately became alert, he looked up and down, and suddenly laughed, "The old man has long known that Wang Ning'an has a lot of people under him, otherwise he wouldn't dare to let me lead the troops." ”
Wuzang nodded and nodded, "What the predecessor said is that the Wuzang clan was gone, and I fled to the Great Song Dynasty alone, but fortunately, I was able to survive thanks to the King of Xiliang." Over the years, the kid has admired his predecessors very much, you have conquered everything, and you have made great achievements, which is really immortal and admirable. ”
The old fox waved his hand, "Don't praise me, no matter how many battles you have won before, it will be useless, and if you lose one, there will be nothing." Ye Li Yuqi's face suddenly changed, and he sneered: "Boy, didn't you just come over to talk to the old man about this, right?" ”
"The seniors are wise, I am asking the seniors to hand over the military power."
"What?"
Ye Liyu was unwilling to roar: "Although the old man does not have many soldiers and horses, there are still thousands of people, and the iron harrier is still brave and invincible, why should I give it to you?" ”
"Hahaha, senior, if you don't still have use value, how can I waste time!" As he spoke, he pounced on him, his iron-like arm locked the old fox's neck, and a dagger pierced into the lower abdomen of Yeli Yuqi.
Before, he had no chance of success, who made the old fox vomit blood, was injured, couldn't lift up the slightest strength, couldn't resist at all. He could only stare weakly, his angry flames erupted, and his throat kept gurgling. Wuzang turned the dagger, the wound was torn even more, the vitality was rapidly lost with the blood, and the brilliance in the old fox's eyes was dim, and it would be extinguished at any time.
"Senior, don't worry, your wife, I'll raise you."
At the mention of his wife, Yeli Yuqi seemed to have a little spirit, and at this time, he leaned into his ear and said with a smile: "I won't hurt them, because I am his real father, thank you!" ”
