Chapter 640: Waiting for the Rabbit

readx;

When Zheng Xia was busy contacting Lu Huiqing, Xu Rong came to a secret mansion, walked up to the attic, bowed down and said, "Di Gong, it's done!" ”

"Well, that's good!" Di Qing nodded and said: "Lu Huiqing is very restless, he not only has bad intentions towards Wang Anshi, but also has bad intentions towards His Royal Highness, so you must be careful." It is not easy to put someone next to him www.biquge.info, Zheng Xia is a good candidate. ”

"Yes, Zheng Xia and Lu Huiqing have the same friendship after all, and now they are also grasshoppers on a rope!" Xu Rong said: "Lu Huiqing is also employing people, so she should be able to hit it off." ”

"Well, you don't have to do anything, just concentrate on Zheng Xia!" Di Qing said in a low voice: "If you can dig out any important news from Lu Huiqing, you will be a great achievement." ”

"Yes, the subordinates will definitely live up to expectations!"

Xu Rong was originally a very peripheral person, and he didn't even know about the existence of Zhao Zhao and Di Qing before. Later, because the Zheng Xia he dated was very important, and his own performance was also good, he was absorbed by Di Qing and became the core member of the Mingyue Sect.

Di Qing has been very careful recently, he is paying attention to the people who may pose a threat to Zhao Zhao, and Lu Huiqing is the first to bear the brunt. Now arrange a chess piece by his side, and it may come in handy in the future.

When it comes to the biggest trouble, it is naturally Zhao Ji. Wang Zhongzheng and Liu Renliang went to Linzhou, and the purpose was obvious.

How much power can they gain in the Northwest, and how much influence will they have? Di Qing didn't think so. What he was afraid of was that these two people disrupted King Qin's deployment. As a commander who has led troops for many years, he knows too well that a general who does not listen to dispatches and an army that commands chaos. What a bad consequence on the battlefield.

All the previous efforts are considered light. In the worst case, it can lead to a big defeat. Annihilated. This battle is very important to King Qin, if there is any mistake, the consequences are unimaginable!

Zhao Ji is really yin, in order to fight political enemies, he even disregarded the national safety of the Great Song Dynasty, which is really despicable. The situation has been determined, and Wang Zhongzheng is afraid that he has already crossed the Yellow River, and he is beyond the reach of the whip. It can only be dealt with by King Qin himself. I hope there won't be any trouble......

Di Qing could only pray silently, for the sake of today's plan, all he could do was to let him worry about the future. I heard that King Qin married another concubine in Chang'an, and she is still Su Shi's sister-in-law, and her background is not bad, and she is worthy of His Royal Highness King Qin. That's fine, if you can give birth to a prince, it would be the best.

The wives and children of the King of Qin were all in Bianjing, although he made his own guarantees, he was able to guarantee their safety and freedom. But after all, there are still risks, and it is best to be foolproof.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Liupan Mountain. It is located in the southwest of the Ning/Xia Plain and the east of Longyou. The southern section is Longshan, which extends to the vicinity of Dasanguan in the western part of Guanzhong. It also happens to be a watershed, although it belongs to the Yellow River Basin, but the Jing River flows to the south, and then enters the Yellow River after being injected into the Wei River.

The Hulu River also originates here, flows north through Lingzhou, and eventually joins the Yellow River. Obviously, Liupan Mountain also happens to be the natural dividing line between Hexi, Longyou and Guanzhong. To be precise, it is the barrier in the gate. Especially now, the north of Liupan Mountain is the Western Xia, and the south is the Great Song Dynasty, and the significance is even more important.

The palace of the king of Qin on the shore of the Qujiang Pond created a slight illusion, so much so that many people thought that Zhao Zhao, the king of Qin, was planning in Chang'an. In fact, Zhao Zhao is now in Liupan Mountain.

The headquarters of Liu Changzuo of the Middle Route Army advanced north through the nearby Hulu River and attacked Lingzhou. The Western Route Army's division is not very far away.

Zhao Zhao came here to supervise the war?

There are considerations in this regard, but in addition, Zhao Zhao is more concerned about another place - Xiao Guan!

Guanzhong has always been known as the land of four stops, and there are portals in the southeast and northwest, known as the four keys in Guanzhong! There is Tongguan in the east, Wuguan in the south, Dasanguan in the west, and Xiaoguan in the north.

The continuous mountain range of Liupan Mountain separates Hexi, Ning/Xia Plain, Helan Mountain and Guanzhong. Coming and going directly, you either climb over the mountains or walk along the river valleys between the mountains, and the most convenient road is Xiaoguan.

Xiao Pass is the north gate of Guanzhong, which was heavily garrisoned in the Han and Tang dynasties, and now it is also necessary to be careful. The army was all mobilized to the front line, and the hinterland of Guanzhong was relatively empty, so it was necessary to be careful of the sneak attack of Western Xia.

In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di fought in the battle of Jingjing, Emperor Jianwen had so many large armies fighting in the front, and as a result, Nan/Beijing was empty, and Zhu Di seized the opportunity. Ran thousands of miles, took the south/capital, and achieved the great cause of the emperor.

Zhao Zhao knew very well that he was the uncle of the Great Song Emperor and the nominal uncle of Zhao Ji. In the history of the time and space in the previous life, the only successful precedent for the uncle to seize the throne of his nephew was Zhu Di's Battle of Jingjing, which was also his own teaching material. How can we not guard against "lessons from the past"? After all, Liang Yibury is not a simple person.

Especially in the past two years, I heard that his temperament has become more and more calm, and he is no longer the frizzy Wuxia Amon of the past. In the face of his own aggressive attack, doesn't he have any countermeasures?

For so many days, Western Xia has not launched a decent counterattack. suffered such a big loss in Suizhou, but can you remain quiet? Lingzhou has been holding on, but it also has the meaning of hard fighting.

Abnormal! What exactly is Liang Yi buried? What do you want to do?

Zhao Zhao carefully inspected all the places and found that Xiao Guan was a loophole. If you have nothing to do, you will come to Liupan Mountain to enjoy the autumn scenery. It is said that Genghis Khan was stationed here in the past, which shows that it is a good place.

Not to mention, this made Zhao Zhao guess correctly, and Liang Yibu also noticed Xiao Guan!

The war has developed to the current state, and the Western Xia is in a disadvantageous position, and blindly passive resistance will only be led by the nose by the Song Dynasty. And the morale of Western Xia is getting worse and worse, how to resist the sharp-edged Song army? The defense line had been torn apart, and the Western Xia army had to hold on to some of the more important cities.

The pressure on Liang Yi's burial is not small, and he is unwilling to continue this situation!

He wanted a phrase - offense is the best defense. In extraordinary times, we can only use extraordinary methods to surprise and defeat the enemy.

The western army of the Song Dynasty was powerful, but now their border defense line is too long, and the troops are inevitably scattered. This time, he mobilized an army of 170,000 to attack Western Xia. Then the defense of Longyou and the hinterland of Guanzhong will definitely be very empty, if at this time, the Western Xia soldiers and horses suddenly appear, what will be the result?

And among them, there is a convenient passage - Xiao Guan!

Liang Yizhu acted quickly and deliberately resisted passively, focusing all the attention of the Song army on Lingzhou and Xiazhou. Then he secretly deployed, gathered a cavalry of 8,000 people, and took advantage of the darkness to launch an attack on Xiao Pass. Prepare to pass through Liupan Mountain and attack Guanzhong directly.

The initial operation was successful, and the Song army had defenders at Xiao Pass, but after all, the guards were not strong enough. Both the number of defenders and the equipment were very poor, and the attack of the Tanguts was very sudden, so that the Song army was caught off guard, and the gate of Xiaoguan was lost.

The tense nerves of the Tangut people relaxed slightly, and the Song Dynasty people still ignored it after all. After opening the Xiaoguan pass, the Tanguts immediately moved and the cavalry moved south along the bottom of the Jing River valley.

At dawn, they will be able to appear in Guanzhong, and they may be able to march to Chang'an in the near future. No matter how many troops there are, no matter what the result is, as long as they appear in Guanzhong, it will be a huge victory.

The soldiers in front are fighting, but the enemy army appears in the hinterland, and the northwest of the Song Dynasty will definitely be in chaos, and the soldiers are also unstable and have no intention of fighting. For them, the elders of the family are also the most important, and the crusade is the second after all.

The commander of this Western Xia cavalry is Liang He, a member of Liang Yiburi's clan, loyal and capable. Liang He was very aware of the importance of this mission, and he also knew that it was likely that there would be no return, and this was likely to be an expedition with no way back.

But as long as you can get to the city of Chang'an, it will be a huge victory. The most serious crisis in the history of Western Xia may be resolved, and this matter is also related to the life and death of the Liang family.

Breaking through the Xiao Pass is the first step, and the next step is to drive straight in. At this pace, the odds of success are high.

Liang He was full of confidence, if the speed was fast enough, with the mobility of the Western Xia cavalry, he would move as planned before the Song army could react. Maybe in the raging pass, you can still retreat calmly. Even if they all die in the end, the purpose of attacking Guanzhong can be achieved, and this is enough.

Chang'an seemed to be in front of him, and Liang He urged the cavalry to speed up!

This section of the terrain is undulating, the Jing River is fast, and the sound is very loud. In the distance, there is also the roar of a waterfall falling into a deep pool, which just muffs out the sound of horses' hooves, and can calmly speed up.

But after walking for a long time, the forward who had opened the road suddenly stopped, and found that a rock had fallen in the middle of the valley, blocking the way. How can it be so unfortunate?

Liang He thought to himself, and heard that the southern foot of Liupan Mountain was rainier than the north, and now it was the autumn rainy season. It could be rain or flash floods that washed the stones and blocked the road!

Without saying a word, Liang He immediately ordered the soldiers to clear the road. Time is important to them, and there is no room for delay.

In order to facilitate the cleanup, the Western Xia soldiers lit torches!

When they walked towards the rock, they were surprised to find that there were words engraved on it!

Got a word? Liang He's heart tightened, and a sense of foreboding appeared in his heart. But he still subconsciously walked forward, and looked at the handwriting on the mountain rock by the light of the torch.

He is a member of the Liang clan, has a good family education, and knows Chinese characters. Under the firelight, he clearly saw that the mountain stone read: Wait for the rabbit for a long time, waiting for the Xixia soldiers!

Yes! Liang He exclaimed in surprise and understood that this was not an accident, but a deliberate act by the Song army, and they had fallen into the ambush of the Song army.

"Quick, go back the way you came, retreat!" Liang He still wants to make a final struggle, hoping that there is still a chance to escape.

It's a pity that it was too late, and at the moment when the Western Xia soldiers turned around, the rain of arrows in the sky was coming! (To be continued......)
