Chapter 213: Counter-Ambush

Wuding River originates in Baiyu Mountain, Shaanxi, flows through the southern edge of the Mu Us Desert, the north bank is the desert, the south bank is the loess gully, the most luster, and then flows into the Yellow River, because of the dry area, especially in the desert and the edge of the desert, the vegetation is scarce, the evaporation is very strong, the sediment content is very high, the river water gradually decreases, can not continue to carry, the river sand slowly accumulates down, gradually blocks the riverbed, forcing the river to be diverted again and again, the river body is constantly swinging around on the sand, forming the Wuding River without a fixed flow direction

During the Qin and Han dynasties, there was also a green forest belt planted in the Qin Dynasty and widened in the Han Dynasty, known as the 'Yuxi Old Stop', which reflected the Great Wall of China, winding and coiling together, which was breathtaking, but due to the continuous wars of the past dynasties, the vegetation was constantly destroyed, and in the Tang Dynasty, the Wuding River has changed from a 'clear stream' to a 'turbid stream'

The Song Dynasty is even more Wuding, the river basin is called the border between the Song and Xia countries, so the two countries often break out in this war, the Song and Xia sides in the manufacture of siege and defense tools are inevitably destroy the local vegetation, on the other hand, the two sides have to station a large number of troops in the local area, garrison soldiers, reclaim and destroy the forest, destroy the vegetation, the local ecological environment is further deteriorated, the two countries have fought for nearly a hundred years, the war between the two armies often in the Wuding River Basin, the destruction of the local ecological environment has caused irreversible damage

Swear to sweep the Huns, regardless of the body, five thousand mink brocade mourning, Hu Chen, pitiful and uncertain, the bones by the river are still in the spring boudoir dream, Zhao Ta sent Tong Guan to lead the troops to continue to go westward to relieve the siege of Xiazhou City, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses on the wide river road continue forward, looking at the rolling turbid water flowing eastward, the yellow sand and the red sun shine high, only a few sparse dead trees swaying with the wind, a few white bones exposed in the sand layer next to the road, he can't help but give birth to a tragedy in his heart, can't help but stop the horse and groan

How to chant this poem when the second master's army goes out is it a little unlucky zhao xin untied the kettle and handed it to the prince and said with a frown

War is a murderous thing, how can the auspicious father die in the battle, the former son was injured in the fight, the woman took the pavilion to the orphan, the old mother and the widow cried in the alley, and set up a false sacrifice to think that the soul was thousands of miles away, Zhao Ta said bitterly, the war died are the people, we don't know how many orphans and widows in the world after this war, and how many bones are added to this uncertain river

Since the prince is so disgusted with fighting, why do he want to lead an expedition to the army, and Zhi Meiluan, who was following him, suddenly interjected and asked, his face was full of disdain, as if he was laughing, Zhao Ta wanted to be a bitch and set up an archway

Ending the war with war, the two countries of Song and Xia are entangled for a hundred years, and there has never been a real peace, how can the common people have cultivated and rested, that is, you have broken your family in the border pass, and how many sons and daughters have died in the territory, and you will not know it, only by winning a big victory and completely surrendering can they know that the Great Song Dynasty cannot be bullied, the Han land cannot be invaded, and the heart of the soldiers will be extinguished forever, Zhao Ta said with a smile

Wouldn't it be against the will of the sages to stop the war with war, the prince's book seems to have been read in vain, and it has been a few days since she was in the army, but the prince always ignores her, neither sends her into battle nor lets her go, only lets her follow the actions of the guard battalion and treats her as a guard, which makes the little girl feel angry, and at this time she can't care about humility and scatters the evil fire

If the sage book works, then find a scholar to come and say to Xia Junzi, okay, why bother us to eat sand for thousands of miles, Zhao Ta sneered and said, Power is justice, as long as your fist is big, Lima is fast, you can speak is the sage's reason

That's not necessarily, could it be that the words of the prince can also become the reason of the sages, and the beauty of the words can not be said by the prince, but the prince is 'crooked', pouting and arguing strongly

That maybe, maybe one day the Zi Yue on the market will become Zhao Zi Zhao said, Zhao Ta pouted and said

Folded girl, don t argue anymore, the prince is teasing you, he doesn t want to be a sage, besides, is there such an unobtrusive sage as him, Zhao Xin looked at Zhe Meiluan, and wanted to say, so he hurriedly pulled her and said

I can't get used to his appearance, as if I owe him 800 hanging money and was sent to pay the debt, I knew that I wouldn't come so I just wouldn't come, and I just said angrily, in fact, she also understood that although she was not in debt, she was sent in exchange

I got Sister Zhe now, I'm afraid I can't let you go, who always secretly looks at my prince, smirks, and I can't sit back and relax if I don't see it for a while, Zhao Xin stuffed the kettle to Zhe Meiluan and whispered...,

You don't talk nonsense, be careful, I'm annoying you... Zhi Meiluan glanced at the prince, saw that his attention was not here, and then twisted Zhao Xin and scolded with a smile, at this time, she didn't know what was wrong with Lu Dao, and the days of getting along with the prince were long, and I didn't know when I was reluctant...

The prince of Qiqi scouted sixty miles southwest and found that the Xia army brigade was about 7,000 people in Lingzhou, and now it has arrived in the Qiantangyu area, if the current marching speed can meet the advance of our army tomorrow, then Jiang Fei came over and reported

Dry Tangyu... Zhao Ta quickly found this point on the map, there is a loess gully area, in addition to the river valley road, there are countless branch roads connected, wide can be a narrow single ride is sad, the terrain is complex, the cliff is high, the ditch is deep, and it is convenient to set up ambushes

Order: Camp in Wuliyuan, ten miles away from Qiantangyu, Jiang Fei, you send a few more scouts, search the valley roads along the way, and find out the exact strength number of the Xia army nearby, I am worried that Xia Zhou will be tight, otherwise the Lingzhou army will not come out here, Zhao Qi said

Due to the discovery of the Xia army brigade, but it was difficult to capture their whereabouts, Zhao Ta ordered to slow down the march, the forward sent sharp soldiers to control the commanding heights along the way, and set up observation posts, and the dangerous passes along the way were repeatedly searched, and after the division of troops to confirm safety, the brigade passed in turn to prevent the enemy from setting up ambushes, so that although the marching speed was slower, it could be safe

It was night, the army stayed overnight in Wuliyuan, arranged an ambush against the enemy at night by the river, but the enemy did not come all night, the next day the whole army still reconnoitred and rode out, sent strong alert troops to the two wings, and the armies rolled forward in turn, passing through Qiantangyu smoothly, while the Xia army was nowhere to be seen at this time, as if it had never appeared...

For two days in a row, the whole army was on guard, up and down, it was difficult to sleep peacefully, every day to prevent thieves, everyone was very tired, after camping that day, everyone gathered in the handsome tent to discuss countermeasures, the form of the meeting was also everyone's favorite, everyone sat around a large table, and in the middle of the table was a roasted fat sheep that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside

What do you say about the intentions of this Xia Jun, the former army general Gao Zhong said

This Xia army should be the purpose of breaking through the defense line of Xiazhou City, I think there are two things: first, they came to look for Brother Cha; The second is to prevent our army from joining forces with Xiazhou to gain time for the recapture of Xiazhou, now look at the second purpose, Zhao Lian tore off a piece of mutton that had just been roasted from the plate, tore it into strips, and put it in his mouth

Well, Zhao Lian is reasonable, we have now found out that this time the leader of the army is the new Xiazhou Governor Xiao Heda, this person was originally from the Liao State, from the princess of Cheng'an to the Xia Kingdom, because of Wu Yong's good shooting, Li Qianshun stayed in Western Xia, followed the Xia army many times, made great contributions, was given the surname of the country, participated in the battle of Tong'an City, did not follow the Cha Ge Xi expedition after the war, but just became the commander of Xiazhou, has not yet arrived, but let us occupy it, from the time point of view, he has already fought with Zhao Ren, deputy marshal, and knows that our firearms are powerful, so we dare not confront us head-on, but use the strategy of harassment to slow down our march, Jiang Fei threw the eaten bones on the table and said

What can he do if he tosses again, we are less than two days away from Xiazhou City, this tactic does not work for us, besides, this is all our leftovers, and we are afraid of him, Zhao Yan said with a smile, but his hand was not idle, rummaging around on the plate, trying to find a piece of good meat

It's always annoying to have a tail behind you, you may be bitten by him if you're not careful, especially with such a force left on the ground in Shizhou, our defenders are not strong enough to expel and eliminate, then make trouble in our rear, use their usual tactics to intercept and kill our baggage troops, cut off our grain road, several expeditions in the previous dynasty in Xixia were all because the grain road was robbed, there was no grain and grass in front of us and failed, so we can't wait to ignore it, Zhao Zhi said with some concern, after all, the logistics are in his charge, and if there is a problem, he has to find him

This Xia army must be annihilated, stay here and threaten the rear to follow us to Xiazhou, the enemy army has many strange soldiers, and it is a disaster for us, I think we should find an opportunity to annihilate on the way, Zhao Xin snatched a sheep's hind leg for the prince, and said while cutting it with a knife

I have long wanted to destroy him, but we are in a hurry to relieve the siege of Xiazhou, and we can't free up our hands to carry out a large-scale outflanking, and want to annihilate them all, how easy it is to talk about it, and now everyone knows that this Zhao Xin can be said to be the spokesperson of the prince, and what he means is what the prince means

Lord Wang, do you have an idea, just tell everyone, Zhao Lian looked at the prince who had been eating for a long time and said silently

Oh, I'm still worried now, you don t just eat a sheep and have bones left, and you have to think of a way, if Xia Jun goes deeper, what will you do to deal with this situation Zhao Ta didn't raise his head and said with the marrow in the sheep's bones

To win more with less, you must use surprise soldiers and surprise soldiers, and when you don't occupy the sky, you will occupy an advantage... Zhao Yan listened to the words of the prince, put down the bones in his hand, and began to chatter in his mouth, the wind and the sun were beautiful in the past two days, and there was neither strong wind nor heavy rain, so he could only use the terrain to engage in an ambush... Jiang Fei lend me your map to see

That's right, if they ambush us, we will counter-ambush, dig a pit and let them jump, everyone is a clever person, Zhao Yan thought of the others, and immediately thought of the bones that a few people threw into their hands, spread the map on the table, squeezed together, and began to mumble, leaving the prince sitting on the handsome seat still fighting with the bones...
