(Second update.) The 70th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. ）

The battle came much faster than expected, almost catching Li Congjing, who had not been in Xijing for a long time, off guard.

When the news reached Xijing, whether it was Li Congjing, who was the commander of the coalition forces, or Mo Li, the first division of the Youzhou Army, who was known as Mo Shenji, or the generals of the Bohai Navy, Daming Xing and Dayoutong, they were all shocked. The sudden outbreak of war was unexpected by everyone, and the situation that followed by the war was also terrifying.

Military report: The Khitan army attacked Bo Shan City.

Bo Fan City, located on the Yalu Riverside, is located at the junction of the Bohai Sea and Liaodong, and is the most important center of Xijing connecting Liaodong and Youzhou Military Traffic Lulong. In the second year of Tongguang, when Daming'an led the Bohai Navy to conquer Liaodong, the first battle was carried out in Bo Shan City, and at that time, it was also relying on the strategy of Mo Li, and the Bo Navy took Bo Shan City with lightning speed, so that the Bo Navy was able to capture half of Liaodong later.

After that, the Khitan army counterattacked, and the Bohai Navy was forced to withdraw from Liaodong. In the winter of the third year of Tongguang, the Youzhou Army was led by Lu Longjun and Peng Zushan after Lian Yannan and Yingzhou, and at that time it was still 10,000 soldiers of the new army and captured the entire Liaodong. Since then, the city has been regained the control of the Tang army.

And now, the 60,000 coalition troops led by Li Congjing, not long after they arrived in Xijing, the battle broke out again in Bo Fan City, and the situation was critical.

After receiving the military report, Li Congjing immediately beat the drum to gather the generals and convened the generals to meet.

"Our army successfully transferred from Hezhou to Xijing, resulting in Yelu Abaoji mobilizing the Khitan Middle Route Army and the South Route Army to encircle our army, and the plan to gather and annihilate our army in Hezhou failed, which is a big loss for Yelu Abaoji, and before that, Yelu Abaoji waved his division north, and had intended to restrict our army from Shuangtong, Yitai, and Jiuyang, but we jumped out of the encirclement, and our army entered the Bohai Sea, and fought with the Khitan army several times, Yelu Abaoji did not take advantage of half a point, I had already expected him to counterattack, but I never thought that this counterattack came so quickly, The angle is also so tricky. In the military tent, after the generals arrived, Mo Li, as a military advisor, took the lead in getting up and walked to the map to explain the situation to the generals.

"According to the report, the vanguard of the attack on Bo Fan City was the Khitan light cavalry that had caught up with us in front of the Yalu River before. Three days after we waited for the ship, the light cavalry was on the verge of besieging the city. After that, only two days later, the Khitan army reinforced this group of light cavalry reinforcements and rushed to Boshan City, so far, the Khitan army began to launch an attack on Boshan City. Mo Li's folding fan crossed the marching lines on the map, speaking of which, he looked at the generals in the tent with sharp eyes, and the next sentence made many people fall into an ice cellar, "The Khitan army's attack on Bo Fan City was too fast, too decisive, and decisive to an incredible degree. To explain this unreasonableness, I have only one answer at present, that is, the attack on Bo Fan City was definitely not a temporary initiative of Yelu Abaoji, but a pre-planned thing! ”

The Bohai generals in the tent changed color one after another when they heard the words, and immediately exchanged their heads and ears, and there were many discussions, and some generals even showed fear.

Mo Li did not stop his explanation, and continued: "At present, what is stationed in Bo Fan City is the new Anbei Battalion of Youzhou - Anbei Battalion, with more than 10,000 soldiers in the whole system, and the main general Peng Zushan. And its main force, led by Peng Zushan, was stationed in Jian'an City. After the battle broke out in Bo Shan City, Peng Zushan had already led the soldiers of the Anbei Battalion of Jian'an City to go to support in the starry night, and he should have arrived in Bo Shan City by now. But this is not to be thankful, because I have just received information that there are Khitan reinforcements in Changling Mansion and are rushing to Boshan City. Based on the number of Khitan troops, it is conservatively estimated that the army attacking Bo Shan City will reach 30,000 in a short period of time! ”

"Thirty thousand?!" This time, not only the generals of the Bohai Navy, but even some of the generals of the Youzhou Army began to be moved.

The Anbei battalion has a total of no more than 10,000 people, and it has been divided into two parts, one inside the city and the other outside the city, and the Anbei battalion is still the weakest group in the Youzhou army, and it has just broken away from the identity of the new army.

"That's all there is going on in the current battle in Bo Shing." Mo Li motioned to Li Congjing, "The next thing to be agreed on is whether to save Bo Yancheng and how to save it." ”

The generals of the Bohai Navy talked endlessly, and the big tent, which was enough to accommodate a hundred people, suddenly seemed noisy.

Dayou Tong is also among them, although he has no talent, he can also see the tension of the situation. He turned his head to look at Da Ming Xing beside him, hoping to find some relief from the other party, but Da Ming Xing's expression made him even more uneasy, because the other party also had a solemn face. In the noisy crowd, Dayou was restless, looking left and right, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Li Congjing sat behind the handsome case and has not said a word so far. The discussion in the tent became louder and louder, and the voices of the people were boiling, and the uneasiness and anxiety on the faces of the Bohai admiral were like forming a vicious wind, blowing everyone's heads dizzy.

"Although the battle in Bo Fan City is tense, the military advisor did not tell the really terrible things, and he was afraid that after he said it, some people would not be able to bear it and faint on the spot." Li Congjing smiled faintly, with some inexplicable meaning, his words made the discussion in the field stop immediately, but the next moment, a bigger noise sounded.

"What could be more terrible and serious?" Someone asked loudly.

"Of course." Li Congjing stood up, walked to the map, pulled out a horizontal knife, pointed at Bo Cheng Cheng, faced the generals, and smiled with a hint of evil charm and coldness, "Whether you here want to admit it or not, the Youzhou army is the backbone of this war, once Bo Cheng is conquered by the Khitan army, then our connection with Lu Long will be cut off, and the Youzhou army will definitely be unstable, and more importantly, our army will lose Lu Long's supplies, so that there is almost no suspense in this war of disparity in strength." And what I want to tell you is that I am almost certain that the city will be conquered by the Khitan army. ”

The generals were shocked, and the only ones who could maintain their composure were the generals of the Youzhou Army, and the only ones who were really in a stable state of mind were the generals of the Hundred Battles Army.

Li Congjing looked at the Bohai Admiral who had spoken out earlier and asked, "Do you know why?" ”

"I don't know." The Bohai Admiral had already been occupied by fear, and shook his head.

The corner of Li Congjing's mouth was full of smiles, "Because Yelu Abaoji has been preparing for this for too long and too well, and his determination is too great." As you all know, the Khitan has an army of 200,000, an army of 200,000, and it is determined to conquer a small city, which is really something that no one can stop. ”

Speaking of this, Li Congjing looked at Da Ming Xing, "Old general, our army was able to successfully withdraw from the Yalu River when it was caught up by the Khitan light cavalry before, does the old general feel lucky?" ”

Daming Xing was stunned, felt that Li Congjing had something to say, and said puzzledly: "What does General Li mean by this?" ”

"But what if I tell the old general that this is a deliberate act by Yelu Abaoji, and he deliberately let me wait until Xijing?" Li Congjing's words were not shocking, and his tone suddenly rose a few points, "Because only by driving us to Xijing, can Yelu Abaoji capture Bo Fan City and close the gateway to Lu Long." In this way, Yelu Abaoji only needs to cut off the connection between us and Xiande Mansion, and it can form a situation of closing the door and fighting dogs, and our army's so-called reliance on Yalu Mansion has also become trapped in Xijing, and there is no room for turnaround, and Yelu Abaoji, who has already suffered losses in Shuangtong, Yitai, and Jiuyang, will definitely not make the same mistake again, so that I can still break through. At that time, our army will become fish on the chopping board, and it will be slaughtered at will for Yelu Abaoji! ”

Da Ming Xing's face turned pale.

Without waiting for Da Ming Xing to speak, Li Congjing struck a heavy blow in his heart again, "In the days when I arrived in Xijing, reports from all parties showed that Yelu Abaoji integrated all the Khitan armies and formed a three-way army again. The west road attacked Bo Shan City, the east road isolated Xiande Mansion, and the middle road went straight to Xijing! He smiled, his eyes drifting over the faces of the generals, "This also shows that what I said is not to threaten you, but to do it!" ”

This time, the tent exploded.

Li Congjing returned to Shuaitai, his face suddenly turned cold, he inserted a knife into the case, and looked at the generals in the tent coldly, "Since I arrived in Xijing, this commander has not yet given an order." Now, the commander has issued the first military order: Those who make wanton noise in the military discussion will be killed! ”

After a while, the generals dispersed, and in addition to Li Congjing's descendant scribes in the military tent, they worked in their respective posts, leaving only Mo Li and Wang Pu.

Mo Li, who was sitting on the side, shook the folding fan lightly and said with a smile: "You intimidate these Bohai generals so much, aren't you afraid that they won't be able to withstand the pressure and defect to the Khitan?" "The smile is relaxed, where is there still half of the previous solemn state?

Li Congjing rubbed his eyebrows and smiled helplessly: "Bohai Country, originally a country of dying, Xijing, is in the land of rouge, how many soldiers can fight, how many generals dare to fight?" If you are not so intimidated, how can you see people's hearts? The battle is imminent, and the uncertain must be made visible so that they can be eliminated. ”

"Removing the scum will indeed help Liwei, and it can also help the next war, but will it be a little inappropriate for me to wait for the guest army to the end, so declare the army to seize the master?" Wang Pu asked out loud.

Li Congjing waved his hand, signaling that it was okay, "Li Siping, who returned to Beijing with Daming'an, has already set off, and he will come to Xijing with a group of people in the near future. ”

Mo Li bowed slightly, and joked with a smile: "But your statement that the Khitan light cavalry deliberately let us arrive in Xijing really doesn't make sense, they can drag us halfway and defeat us in the wild, why should Yelu Abaoji let us go to Xijing, and then make such a big effort and set up such a big game?" ”

"Improvised, how can you think too carefully, besides, isn't Da Ming Xing also bluffed by me?" Li Congjing smiled slightly.

"But the battle in Bo Cheng is indeed urgent, how to rescue?" Wang Pu asked.

Li Congjing turned his head and asked Tao Yaoyao, who was holding a wooden cup and drinking water on the side, "Where have all the gentlemen gone?" ”

"Not out yet." Tao Yao didn't raise his head and said, "How can it be so easy to escape from the encirclement and interception of the near division?" ”
