In the Wasion Army, Tian Hu had just rewarded the three armies.

The night before, Tian Hu learned that the soldiers and horses of Daliang had reached thirty miles away, so he wanted to go out as soon as possible to repel the soldiers and horses of Daliang. But the soldiers and horses he relied on were thousands of bandits who had been crisscrossing the east of the river for more than ten years, and these bandits helped him repel countless encirclements and suppressions by the Song army, and his combat effectiveness was very strong. But before these bandits set out on the expedition, they must be served with wine and meat, because they are all outlaws, and no one knows if it will be the last expedition, so they must be served with good wine and meat before they go out.

The military situation was urgent, and Tian Hu had no choice but to ask Tian Biao to urge Bian Xiang to lead the front army on the road, wanting to block the soldiers and horses of Daliang outside the city.

After rewarding the three armies, Tian Hu had just ordered his troops and horses and was ready to pull out, and the news of the attack on the front army came back.

I heard that there were no more than 10,000 people in front of Daliang, and there were 30,000 people under Bian Xiang, so Tian Hu did not send reinforcements.

But the army had not traveled more than two miles before Pegasus reported and the front army was defeated.

Tian Hu hurriedly sent Ma Ling with a group of soldiers and horses to rescue the front army, and at the same time discussed with the group how to advance and retreat.

When the officials of the Jin State heard that the 30,000 former army was actually defeated by the 10,000 former army of Daliang, they also looked at each other.

The defeat of 30,000 soldiers and horses to 10,000 soldiers and horses was a big defeat, and it was even more unexpected to retreat so quickly.

Tian Hu saw that everyone didn't answer, and his face became darker and darker.

Shangshu Li Tianxi saw that Tian Hu's expression was not good, and he hurriedly said: "The soldiers and horses of the Liang State came so quickly, the minister thought that it was better to retreat to Weisheng first, and after finding out the news of the former army, he would discuss how to resist the soldiers and horses of the Liang State after all. ”，

Privy Council Xue Shi also echoed: "The soldiers and horses of the Liang State are menacing, and it is better to avoid the edge for the time being. ”

Tian Hu frowned and said: "The soldiers and horses of the Liang State have gunpowder to break the city, even if we enter the city, we will also engage them, why not fight them outside the city." ”

Li Tianxi said: "They can blow up the city wall." The left and right sides are just blowing up a gap to come out. We only need to send troops to plug the gap, and if we are outside the city, we will have to engage in a full-scale battle, and then our soldiers and horses will only be afraid that they will not be able to stop the soldiers and horses of the Liang State. ”

Previously, many people thought that the soldiers and horses of the Jin State were twice as many as the soldiers and horses of the Liang State, and they could win with more, but the defeat of the 30,000 soldiers and horses of the former army to the 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Great Liang made them have to face up to the combat power of the soldiers and horses of the Jin State.

Xue Shi also said: "The soldiers and horses of Daliang are coming quickly, and we want to camp outside the city, but it's too late." It is better to retreat into the city. If you want to play, it doesn't matter. ”

Tian Hu also had to nod and said, "What Shangshu said is, then withdraw Weisheng." ”

As soon as the king gave the order, the army stopped advancing, and the front team became the rear team. The rear team changed to the front team and withdrew to the city.

The soldiers of Hedong couldn't help but talk about it.

Besides, Ma Ling led the troops to rescue Bian Xiang, and after walking for several miles, he saw that the troops in front of him were full of routs, and more of them fled to the east and west.

Ma Ling hurriedly asked people to gather the soldiers and horses, and was about to step forward to block the soldiers and horses of the beam. But he saw that the soldiers and horses of the Great Liang had already gathered the soldiers and horses.

He only brought 10,000 people under his command, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he had to restrain the soldiers and horses, and Tian Biao, who was investigating, had died under the fire and thunder. Hurriedly let people fly to report Tian Hu.

Tian Hu heard that Tian Biao had died in battle, and most of the former army had been dispersed, and he didn't want to lose Ma Ling's troops anymore, so he hurriedly asked Ma Ling to lead his troops to retreat.

Chao Yong led 40,000 soldiers and horses of Shi Wengong, Hua Rong, Qin Ming, and Wu Song ten miles away from the front army. Hearing that the front army and the soldiers and horses in Hedong were fighting, they also sent a cavalry reinforcement.

But the army did not hurry. Ten miles is not a long journey, but if you hurry, it will be enough to exhaust the strength of the army.

Later, when he heard that Guan Sheng had broken through the soldiers and horses in Hedong and covered up the killing less than ten miles to Weisheng City, Chao Yong ordered Guan Sheng to find a place to camp.

When Chao Yong's army arrived at the place where Guan Sheng camped, it was close to noon, and July was the hottest time.

When Tian Hu entered the city, he assigned 40,000 horses to guard the four gates, and at the same time hurriedly gathered all the officials in the city to discuss countermeasures.

As soon as the hundred officials gathered, Ma Ling sent the news that Tian Biao was killed by fire and thunder.

Tian Hu's face changed, but he didn't say anything.

Taiwei Fang Xuedu observed the words and said: "Liang Guo's firearms are powerful, the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, and it only took 10,000 soldiers and horses to defeat the 30,000 soldiers and horses of the Taishi. The minister thought that he could not fight any longer. ”

The second king, Tian Bao, waited for Fang Xuedu and said: "If we don't fight, will it be difficult for us to surrender?" ”

Fang Xuedu cautiously looked at Tian Hu sitting on the dragon chair, and saw that Tian Hu had no expression, so he said: "The Great Liang has even destroyed the Western Xia, and has gained a lot of elites of the Western Army, and its strength has far surpassed our Jin State and Wang Qing's Chu State, even if the Song Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River is added, the three of us can't beat the Liang State." ”

When Tian Bao heard this, he couldn't help but wait for Fang Xuedu and said: "You guy, full of nonsense, shaking the hearts of the army." There are only 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Liang State, if my Jin State can form an alliance with the Chu State and the Song State, how can I still be afraid of the Liang State? ”

Fang Xuedu shook his head and said: "Even if the three kingdoms unite and can resist the beam, we don't have time to do this kind of thing." What's more, Wang Qing had already been frightened by Liang Guo, and when Liang ordered troops in Tokyo, we sent someone to contact Wang Qing in Huaixi, but we have not seen Wang Qing reply until now. It can be seen that his people did not dare to send troops to threaten the hinterland of Daliang. As for Jiangnan Tongguan, I am afraid that when he heard that Daliang destroyed Western Xia, he was even more frightened and couldn't sleep at night. ”

Guozhang Fan Quan said: "The soldiers and horses of the Liang State have already come to the city, even if they dare to send troops against the Liang State, it is far from quenching the thirst, we still discuss how to deal with the soldiers and horses of the Liang State at the moment." ”

Fang Xuedu said: "The prince of Liang has been invincible since he led the army, and there are elite soldiers and horses under his command to destroy Western Xia, I am afraid it will be difficult to keep Weisheng." Even if it is saved this time, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with the attack behind the girder. Everyone knows the news of Shaanxi, and now the people of Shaanxi regard the prince of Liang as a god and are willing to serve Liang. Some time ago, there were 50,000 soldiers and horses in the Western Xia who surrounded and suppressed Huanqing Road. It's just that they didn't expect Renzhong to escape first, and they went one step later. After Na Renzhong led his troops back to Western Xia, he also lowered the Liang. The combat power of these soldiers and Western Xia soldiers and horses far exceeded that of the Song army, and they could all be used by the Liang State. We just blocked this, and the next time maybe it will be these soldiers and party soldiers. In a few times, I will be able to fight out the soldiers and horses in Hedong. According to my intentions, it is better to take advantage of the fact that the king still has the city and soldiers and horses in his hands, and negotiate peace with the Great Liang. ”

When Fang Xuedu said this, the people in the hall also nodded secretly, and they all peeked at Tian Hu on the dragon chair.

Tian Bao said: "Liangshan thief Kou just killed my third brother, how can I negotiate peace with them." Moreover, a while ago, we asked Wang Qing and Wang Qing to demarcate the national borders of the Liang State, and the people sent by the Liang State were all expelled by the Liang State. You want to vote for Liangguo, but you come to harm our brother. ”

As he spoke, he pulled out the sword at his waist and was about to stab at Fang Xuedu.

"Stop."

Tian Hu drank Tian Leopard, sighed, and said: "The hero doesn't eat the loss in front of him, and he doesn't have to worry about the lack of firewood in the green mountains." Taiwei, how can we negotiate peace with Liang Guo? ”

Fang Xuedu thought for a while and said: "Daliang has already come to the city, if you want to negotiate peace, I am afraid that the throne of the king will not be able to be kept, and the lost city will definitely not be able to come back, and I am afraid that the existing city will have to give up some of it." ”

Tian Hu frowned and said: "How can you raise troops without the city, and if you don't have soldiers and horses, you won't be at the disposal of Liang Guo in the future?" ”

Tian Bao still resented Liang Guo's soldiers and horses for killing Tian Biao, and said: "In my opinion, we will fight to the death with Liang." Our brothers have been crisscrossing the east of the river for more than ten years, and who have we been afraid of. Even if we are defeated, we can go north and vote for Liao, which is better than taking refuge in Liangshan thieves. ”

Fang Xuedu said: "The Liao State is already in the waning mountains, I heard that the Jin State has been defeated and retreated, I am afraid that it will soon be the same as the Western Xia, we go to vote for them, but we will only live a few more days." ”

Tian Bao said: "If the Liao State is destroyed, we will vote for the Jin State." If the Jin State can destroy the Liao State, it must be stronger. At that time, we will be able to follow Jin Guo back again. ”

When everyone heard that Tian Bao was ready to switch to the two countries for a while, they were also ashamed.

Lu Bu only changed his master three times, and he was scolded for nearly a thousand years as a house slave, and as long as the Han people did not die, they would always be scolded. If they voted for the Khitan tribe first, and then the Jurchen tribe, their reputation would definitely overshadow Lu Bu, because they voted for foreign races.

Tian Hu felt that what Tian Biao said was a bit outrageous.

Fang Xuedu said: "The Liao State has just been defeated by the Liang State, and it is busy dealing with the Jurchens. Even if we go to them, they may not dare to take the risk of offending Liang Guo and accept us. Perhaps, we have just gone north, and they will hand it over to Liang Guo. ”

Tian Bao said: "They want to resist the Liang State, and we have soldiers and horses in our hands, how can they not accept it?" ”

Shangshu Li Tianxi said: "After the Liao people occupied the sixteen states of Yanyun, my Han people have always wanted to take it back. The Song Dynasty had a northern expedition, and the Liang soldiers were strong and strong, and they had just destroyed the Western Xia. It is impossible for the Liao State not to worry that Da Liang will send troops to recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, how dare they give Da Liang a reason to send troops at this time. ”

Tian Bao said: "It is because Da Liang will go to seize the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun sooner or later that they want to take us in, so that we can resist the Liang State." ”

Fang Xuedu said: "I said a disrespectful word, whether the Liao State takes us in or not depends on whether we have any use value." As soon as Daliang sent troops, except for Xiangyuan, we resisted Daliang's soldiers and horses for more than ten days. Other places are all about to collapse at the touch of a button, does the Liao State look at us in the eyes? ”

Tian Bao was ready to be stubborn to the end, and asked rhetorically: "Since we can't stop the soldiers and horses of the Liang State, how can the Liang State negotiate peace with us?" ”

Fang Xuedu said: "The soldiers and horses of the Liang State can defeat us, but if they want to defeat more than 100,000 soldiers and horses of our country, they will also have to pay a lot of price." If they don't want to pay this price, they will naturally make peace with us. ”

Tian Bao wanted to say more, Tian Hu had already taken the case, and said: "Then I will bother the captain to go to the camp of Liang Guo to see if the prince of Liang Guo is willing to negotiate peace." (To be continued)
