Chapter 217: Snow Full Bow and Knife (12)

After Tong Guan admonished him slightly, he held Zhao Liangsi tightly with both hands, "Shenzhi, Shenzhi, you are the ovary of a certain person, the front-line battle situation, that is, you must supervise and urge all matters together, act as soon as possible, and rely on you to completely resist this situation with the momentum of plowing the court and sweeping the holes!" ”

When Zhao Liangsi heard the front, his face couldn't help but change suddenly, and then looked at Tong Guan with the respect of Xuan Shuai, and turned it over so much, Zhao Liangsi also replied with emotion: "A certain person who returned to the south, thanks to Xuan Shuai's refusal to give up, only today, Xuan Shuai entrusted a certain An Neng not to keep in mind, the situation in Yandi will be reversed, and then a certain and Xuan Shuai will climb the Yanjing City Tower together, warm wine and enjoy the snow!" ”

At this time, the two laughed after looking at each other, and strode outside.

……

In the early years of the Song Dynasty, Wang Shao opened the Xihe River, expanded the border for more than 2,000 miles, and recovered the six prefectures of Xi, He, Tao, Min, Die, and Tang, and the Song Dynasty then placed the newly opened territory as the Xihe Road. The Great Song Dynasty has five roads along the border with Xixia in Shaanxi, from west to east are Xihe Road, Qinfeng Road, Jingyuan Road, Huanqing Road, Yanyan Road, plus Yongxing Military Road in the interior of Guanzhong, collectively known as Shaanxi Sixth Road.

In addition, Hedong Road still has Linfu Feng Sanzhou in Hexi, and also borders Xixia, the actual power of the three states is in the hands of hereditary local lords, the famous generals, and all roads in Shaanxi have the military and political power to manage the road by the Jingluo Pacification Division.

It can be said that the Western Army can not only be called a four-way strong army, to be exact, there are six roads, plus a folded army, but this Northern Expedition can not send all the Western Army to the northern battlefield, you need to know that there is a Western Xia in the west, at this time the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty After a short period of ceasefire, it is time for the sword soldiers to meet.

There is no other reason, Western Xia at this time. When the Great Liao Kingdom was about to fall and the situation was complicated, a strategy contrary to that of the Song Dynasty was adopted.

The wife of Emperor Chongzong of Western Xia, Li Qianshun, was the princess of Cheng'an of Liao, and with this layer of in-law relationship, Western Xia decided to aid Liao to resist Jin, but the military efforts of Western Xia to rescue Liao were broken in front of the Jurchen Iron Cavalry. The 30,000 reinforcements were defeated and the Jin army was 10,000 households to complete the Yan Lou Office.

The fiasco on the battlefield forced Li Qianshun to bow his head to the Jin Dynasty, and he was called a minister, abandoning the Liao Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi, and Princess Cheng'an died of hunger strike. It took half a year to quell the Fangla uprising, and there was a northward march to recover Youyun.

At this moment, if the Western Xia side does not leave the remaining two soldiers and horses and the Zhejia army to sit in the town, I am afraid that the Western Xia will take the opportunity to advance eastward, once it invades Guanxi, plunders a large number of people and property, and various resources have been replenished, I am afraid that it will not be a three-point situation in the future.

Although the princes of the Great Song Dynasty and the Princesses of the Great Song Dynasty thought of Youyun in their bones. However, we can't sit back and watch the loss of the western road and fight on two fronts. Only the Great Song Dynasty, which has undergone Wang Anshi's reforms, has this national strength that can withstand consumption.

At this moment, to say that the strongest force is the Xihe Army, which has been at the forefront of Western Xia for many years, has the strongest combat effectiveness, but when the Northern Expedition started again, Yang Ling fought well on the back road, and the Xihe Army was beaten by Xiao Gan head-on. can be regarded as breaking his teeth, and he can't vent his resentment in his heart, so he finally arrived at the bank of the Gaoliang River, and he has not rested for a few days before ushering in Zhao Lianghe.

On the way of the Xihe Army of the Huanqing Army. At the forefront is still not Liu Yanqing, but Yao Gu's military camp.

The Great Song Dynasty military horses, the first few camps, almost on the side of the Gaoliang River, the bow and arrow crossbow machine in the plug, has almost been able to control the surface of the Gaoliang River, only the Liao people want to cross the river to fight, with dense bows and crossbows, the Liao people are the situation of nine deaths, not to mention the ability of the Xihe army to fight, it is the foundation of this camping and defense, it is not to be underestimated.

The Song military camp along the Gaoliang River stretches for more than ten miles from east to west, and the north and south are deep, and there is almost this distance, in the south of the Gaoliang River, it is a huge tiger, with fierce fangs.

At this time, if you look down from the sky, you can see it in the night. In the camp of the Song army, the banner is like the Milky Way in the sky, falling in the south of the Gaoliang River, flickering and connecting into one breath, reflecting people's eyes, and the aura of slaughter goes straight into the sky. Even the sorghum river water flowed before the Song army, and it seemed that he didn't dare to whimper!

The Liao army camp on the north bank is still deep and high, and it is extremely strict, but I don't know how many people there are inside, but occasionally there are distant barricades sliding through the night, and under the Song army, revealing a vague figure, immediately on the north bank, quietly staring at the situation in the south.

The Liao army did not react to the Song army's large-scale approach to the Gaoliang River, and in such a war, they were all waiting for work anyway, which made the Dexi River army all geared up.

The camp in the middle of the Xihe Army, the gossip from the soldiers in the middle, I am afraid that it will not take a few days to pull out the camp and cross the river.

The camp here is magnificent, but compared with the camp established by Liu Yanqing on the back road at that time, after all, there is not much less luxury and bearing.

Liu Yanqing's father and son are notoriously greedy and luxurious, at this time, in his military tent, there was a sound of laughter, several of Liu Yanqing's henchmen and generals took off their armor and accompanied Liu Yanqing to talk in the tent.

Zhao Liangsi was in the dust at this time, and in the tent where he was sitting in danger, Liu Yanqing raised his glass to Zhao Liangsi from afar, "You can't drink alcohol in the army, but you can only use this tea soup to introduce it, and treat Xuanzan lightly, please don't be surprised!" ”

Zhao Liangsi stood up, above the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, even if it was a seven-grade sesame official, he could make a general grovel at the edge of the town, but Zhao Liangsi did not dare to be so presumptuous, although Tong Guan valued him a lot, but Liu Yanqing was also in Tong Guan's camp, and his own family was a person who returned to the south, and his foundation was not solid, how could he put up the shelf, so that he could have his own foothold, not to mention that Zhao Liangsi came with a mission, and he didn't want to lose a big one because of a small one, so he saluted, "Why is the Taiwei like this, all the generals present are serving the commander and serving the official, This time, Xuan Shuai's order is conveyed here, not to hide it from the captain, the official family has been so prolonged about the war, a little impatient, the captain still needs to act quickly, don't let Xuan Shuai wait for a long time, and later after the banquet, you have to explain to Guo Yaoshi, it is not appropriate to drink, and the captain should not take these little things to heart. ”

Liu Yanqing laughed, "Zhao Xuanzan take a good look, how can a certain Huanqing army under his command not be able to fight, this battle does not require the labor of Jurchen soldiers and horses, a certain can conquer Yanjing, and Xuanzan will lead Jurchen soldiers and horses to come here in the coming day, and a certain will be in Yanjing City to sweep the couch and wait, and then drink with Xuanzan ......"
