On June 25 of the second year of Baoyuan, in the hall of the Yan'an Mansion, Zhao Lei was negotiating with Fan Zhongyan and others about the garrison near Yan'an Mansion, and nearly 200,000 troops gathered in Yan'an City, which was much poorer than the Yongxing Military Road in the Central Plains and the south, the logistical pressure was particularly heavy, although there was a steady stream of supplies from Bianjing and other places, but the consumption of 200,000 people was not a small number, and a bowl of water was not so easy. Every day, army generals quarrel with Zhao Lei and Fan Zhongyan over trivial matters. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info. qΒ5、\\

Just when Zhao Lei and Fan Zhongyan were dealing with the problem, the huge voice of the herald outside the door had already shouted, and the meaning of the words was even more exciting.

"My lord! White Panther City victory! White Panther City victory! A huge voice surrounded outside the courtyard, and it drifted into the house and entered the ears of Zhao Lei and Fan Zhongyan.

The news of the victory in White Leopard City immediately attracted the attention of Zhao Lei and Fan Zhongyan, and the two of them put down their affairs at the same time and looked towards the door in surprise.

A tall and big-mouthed herald rushed into the conference hall with a happy face, and when he saw Zhao Lei and Fan Zhongyan, he bowed down and said, "Lord Zhao! Fan-sama! News came from White Leopard City that General Ren had taken White Leopard City. ”

Zhao Lei, the official position of the Yongxing Military Road Jiedu Envoy, is one level greater than Fan Zhongyan's official position on the Yongxing Military Road, and after the herald reported to him, he immediately handed over the military letter in his hand to Zhao Lei.

Zhao Lei, who received the military love letter from the herald, read it carefully, and after handing over the military love letter in his hand to Fan Zhongyan, he said with a happy face: "Okay! The White Panther City is lost. Jintang, Yecheng and more than a hundred large and small fortresses are exposed to the front of our army, Yuan Hao has not yet come out of Jinming Village, we will break through those strongholds in Western Xia one by one, and see how long Yuan Hao can endure it! ”

"Good! Unexpectedly, at the cost of ten people killed and hundreds injured, he won the White Leopard City guarded by 3,000 people, Ren Fu is worthy of the name of a fierce general! Fan Zhongyan looked at the military situation in his hand. He also looked up and said to Zhao Lei with great joy.

"General Ren is not only a fierce general, but also a wise general, look at the battle report, he not only killed more than 700 people of the Xixia army, captured more than 1,000 people alive, but also set fire to the entire White Leopard City, this is not counting, he actually swept all the gathering places of the Xixia people near the White Leopard City, conquered more than 40 places of the Xixia people's tents, and captured more than 10,000 horses, cattle, sheep and camels. He also burned all the crops of all the Tangut people within more than forty miles of the White Leopard City, General Ren's trick is poisonous enough, and the Xixia is now short of grain and grass! Grain and grass are now Yuan Hao's lifeblood, and Yuan Hao is not angry when he hears the news! Zhao Lei took the military intelligence letter that Fan Zhongyan had read again. Look at it again and say to Fan Zhongyan with a smile.

"What now! Wait for Yuan Hao to come out according to the original plan? After the excitement, Fan Zhongyan remembered the hundreds of thousands of troops in Jinmingzhai Xixia, and asked Zhao Lei with some concern.

"That's right! Wait, Yuan Hao, who is shrinking in Jinmingzhai, we have no ability to move him at all, Jinmingzhai is too close to Xixia. Yuan Hao, who cannot be completely surrounded and has the support of Xingqing Mansion, is invincible in Jinmingzhai. However, the snake out of the hole is always easy to deal with, so now wait for Yuan Hao's snake to come out of Jinming Village! Zhao Lei smiled slightly, came to the side of the sand table in the conference hall, looked at Jin Mingzhai above and said indifferently to Fan Zhongyan.

……

On June 26, the second year of Baoyuan, Jin Mingzhai got the news of the loss of White Leopard City, and Yuan Hao, the emperor of Western Xia, angrily dropped a large Song celadon teacup in his hand.

"Bastard! Zhang Ping, that waste, actually lost the White Leopard City like this, and actually escaped alive, someone came. Spreading the will of the land, Zhang Ping carelessly lost the white leopard, and even left the soldiers who defended the city to flee alone, the crime was unforgivable, and he was beheaded immediately! Yuan Hao walked back and forth anxiously, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and said loudly to the guards outside the room.

"The emperor is angry! Although Zhang Ping lost the White Leopard City, the crime was extremely evil, but the crime was not to death, the Song army's attack on the White Leopard City could obviously be a premeditated action, Ren Fu secretly arrived at Rouyuan Village in the name of patrolling the border, and attacked at night, and used a powerful gunpowder weapon, the city gate was blown up in the White Leopard City, which could not stop the enemy four times his own at all, Zhang Ping was able to escape and report the news, and the news of the Song Army's mysterious weapons ** came, which was already a great blessing in the sky. Therefore, the minister thinks that Zhang Ping's crime does not lead to death!

In addition, the minister thought that Ren Fu's attack on the white leopard was Zhao Lei's plan to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, and he was helpless against Jinmingzhai, so he wanted to transfer my Xixia army out of Jinmingzhai, and now the White Leopard City has fallen, Jintang and Yecheng are exposed to the soldiers of the Song army, and now the top priority is how to recapture the White Leopard City, as for Zhang Ping, let him atone for his crimes, and take his soldiers to guard Jintang! A soft and calm voice came out of the mouth of a thin and tall middle-aged man dressed as a party item, this person turned out to be Yeli Renrong, who was supposed to stay in Xingqing Mansion, and for some reason appeared in Jinmingzhai.

In Yuan Haodi's eyes, Yeli Renrong was the most trusted and valued minister among the many courtiers in Western Xia, so Yeli Renrong's proposal immediately made Yuan Hao calm down and seriously think about the changes in the situation after the fall of White Leopard City.

Yuan Hao sat in the only seat that belonged to him, stirred the sandalwood Buddha beads in his hand, pondered for a while, looked at Yeli Renrong, who had come from Xingqing Mansion, and asked in a deep voice: "White Leopard City missed, Xiping Mansion is empty, save or not?" ”

"Zhao Lei will not continue to advance northward, he and we both understand that although this war is fierce, neither my Xia State nor the Song State have done their best, in the case of the Liao State peeping on the sidelines, if Zhao Lei sends troops to continue to go north, he is not afraid of leading out the 150,000 troops left behind in Xingqing Mansion and dragging the Song State into the quagmire of the battle of the country, so whether the White Leopard City is saved or not, it is not the point, and the most important thing now is what to do after Zhao Lei is ready to lead our army out? And is our army going to Zhao Lei to see the move, or do they go their own way? Yeli Renrong spoke slowly and logically, but he not only pointed out Zhao Lei's plan to attack White Leopard City, but also put forward two options for Yuan Hao.

"See the moves, each does its own thing!" Yuan Hao frowned and repeated Yeli Renrong's words, carefully pondering which of these two paths could make Western Xia gain greater benefits.

"See the move? To each his own? What do you mean? The Xixia fierce general Ye Li Yu stared at his leopard eyes, and asked Yang Shousu beside him in a confused whisper.

"Seeing that the move is to confront Zhao Lei, he will save the white leopard when he sneaks up on the white leopard, and then find an opportunity to defeat the main force of the Song army, and then attack Yan'an and other places; And each way of doing it is to no matter where Zhao Lei hits, no matter where Zhao Lei hits, he fights him, and we fight ours, they still stick to the original plan and sneak attack Weizhou. Yang Shousu looked at Yeli Yuqi, a reckless general who didn't know a few big words, and explained to him helplessly.

"Of course, they are going their own way, and against the Song army, when will they be able to defeat the more than 200,000 troops of the Great Song Dynasty! Besides, even if it is defeated, the Great Song Dynasty has a population of 100 million! Mu soldiers are not a trivial matter, defeat 200,000, I am afraid that 400,000 will come, when will they be able to capture Yan'an and negotiate with the Great Song Dynasty! When Yeli Yuqi heard Yang Shousu's explanation, he immediately became anxious and shouted loudly.

Yeli Yuqi's words made Yuan Hao stop turning the Buddha beads, and he made up his mind and resolutely said: "Yuqi said it well!" Why do you want to fight with Zhao Lei, it is the best policy to lead Song Jun by the nose, White Leopard City doesn't care about him, continue the original plan, and attack Weizhou! ”

"Zhao Lei is not so easy to deal with, although the minister does not know this Zhao Lei very well, but the minister knows that he is an unruly person, and the minister's only opinion of him is unfathomable, otherwise the minister would not have heard the news that Zhao Lei came to Yan'an Mansion and immediately followed the grain and grass to Jinming Village! Although the plan to attack Weizhou is good, it is too risky, and the probability of being seen through by Zhao Lei is greater than fifty percent, and Weizhou is deep in the Song realm, once the war is unfavorable, it is not as easy to break through as Yan'an Mansion, so the minister thinks that we should fight the Song army near Yan'an Mansion, completely defeat the Song army and then occupy Yan'an City! Yeli Renrong's thoughts are different from Yuan Hao's, he has a deep taboo against Zhao Lei, Zhao Lei, the big Song Sanjue Mr., is an impenetrable existence for him, so Yeli Renrong faced Zhao Lei, changed his previous adventurous style, and proposed a steady plan.

"Renrong doesn't need to say much, even if Zhao Lei sees it through, I have 100,000 iron cavalry, enough to level the entire Yongxing military road, even if I can't defeat Weizhou, if I want to go, who can stop it, now that the grain and grass have arrived, what are you waiting for, pass on my military order, the army will rest for a day, and the day after tomorrow will start to attack Weizhou!" Yuan Hao stood up suddenly, resolutely ordered, and after finishing speaking, he immediately turned around and left, not giving others a chance to dissuade him.

Although Yuan Hao also values Zhao Lei very much, he is not as cautious as Yeli Renrong, in his opinion, no matter how powerful Zhao Lei is, he can't conjure up a war horse to block the Western Xia army under his command, and the Great Song army, which has only a few cavalry, can't keep the departure of the Western Xia army at all.

Yeli Renrong also has the blood of the brave warriors of the party in his bones, Yuan Hao's words made him proud, and he immediately did not think about a cautious and calm strategy, and immediately began to obey Yuan Hao's orders, pondering how to confuse Zhao Lei and Song Jun's exploration horses, secretly sneaked to Weizhou, and took Weizhou as quickly as possible.

……

On July 1 of the second year of the Great Song Dynasty Baoyuan, the 130,000 Western Xia army of Jinmingzhai immediately sent troops to start sweeping the Quartet after receiving the support of the Xingqing Mansion in the rear.

This situation quickly spread to the ears of Zhao Lei and Fan Zhongyan and others in Yan'an City, and how would the Song army, who learned of this situation, deal with the poisonous snake of Yuan Hao, who had already come out of the nest!
