If you are hot, you will be thirsty, thirsty... It's a major fighter! There was a flaw in the frontier of the Great Song Dynasty, Li Jiqian had caught it twice back then, and he was only a little bit close to breaking through the defense line of the Song army and entering the hinterland of the Great Song Dynasty. The people of the Song Dynasty relied on the famous general Cao Wei and the help of God to tide over the difficulties - Linzhou City.

Linzhou City is on Hedong Road, strictly speaking, it is not within the scope of Shaanxi. Flip back to the history books, first familiarize yourself with the terrain here: the top, and the northernmost part of the Great Song Dynasty, is Fengzhou City on Hedong Road. To the right of Fengzhou City is the volcanic military city where the legendary Yang family general started, and then to Lu, Fuzhou City and Baode Army are in turn. To the west of Toyosu Castle is the most important castle of Inshu. Between Fengzhou, Linzhou, and Fuzhou, there is a series of military villages, which are the lifeblood of their survival relying on each other.

Linzhou City is the legendary Yang Men female general Mu Guiying's maiden family Shenmu Village. It should be particularly pointed out that the western route of Fengzhou, Linzhou and Shenmuzhai is actually the national border, and they border with Xixia.

Therefore, the territory that can be attacked in the Great Song Dynasty is not only more than 2,000 miles in the Hengshan area of Shaanxi Fourth Road, the national border is too long, Li Yuanhao can choose any target and attack at will...

There was no water source in Linzhou City, and it was a sudden rainstorm and Zhang Jin, who sent troops to rescue Zhang Jin without authorization, that made Li Jiqian retreat in despair. However, the Song Dynasty has now abandoned the northern front for more than 30 years, and one of the conditions of the alliance is that neither Song nor Liao is allowed to increase troops or repair cities on the border. The Northern Army of the Great Song Dynasty can be said to have done nothing from the beginning of the Lanyuan Alliance to the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty...

At this time, Li Yuanhao suddenly came in. His progress was very rapid, thanks above all to Kant, the military director of the East Song River Road. Kang Daren usually has too high political consciousness and hates the party members to the core, and as a result, even the party acquaintances in the Song Dynasty are hated by him. Some people couldn't bear it anymore and became a guide for Li Yuanhao.

As a result, the city of Linzhou was besieged, and the city was at a loss. Not to mention preparing some strategic water in advance, it is too late to even send a messenger for help! Forced to do so, Zhizhou Miao Ji announced a heavy reward. A soldier who was not afraid of death slipped down the city wall in the middle of the night, changed into the Xixia costume prescribed by Li Yuanhao, spoke fluent party language, swayed and wandered, and mixed up all the way to say hello...

On August 1, he ordered Xu Huaide to lead 10,000 troops to the rescue, but he was too far away. Before this, Gao Jixuan, the son of Gao Qiong, a famous general stationed in the prefecture, rushed to help as soon as possible. Linzhou is in danger, and the state goes to help, this is already a fixed formula.

This time, the Song army was probably more unlucky. As soon as Gao Jixuan set off, it actually rained heavily, but the location was a little off, not in Linzhou, but near the Tianmen Pass where Gao Jixuan's march must pass. A big river blocked the way, and Gao Jixuan resorted to the ultimate trick: ordered to kill pigs and sheep by the river, and set up an incense case: God is above, the river god is below, such as the Great Song Dynasty can still keep Linzhou City. Just let the rain stop...

In the early hours of the next morning, the rain gradually stopped. Hurry up now! At dusk the next day, they rushed to the outskirts of Linzhou City. Thank God! The flag of the Great Song Dynasty is still fluttering at the head of Linzhou City! Can't afford to delay any longer! Gao Jixuan ordered the whole army to rest, and the warriors all stood up!

After dark, General Gao personally led the team. Night attack on the Western Xia military camp! Li Yuanhao was sleeping soundly, and suddenly there was a sound of killing... There was a scuffle in the night, but it didn't take long for the battle to end. The Song army retreated. It can't be helped. Li Yuanhao's battalion wants to crush him at once, and General Gao's warriors are too few. And the fineness is not too high.

General Gao led the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty. This is a glorious and powerful name, but it has already passed too far away. In the hands of Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin, they fought in the south and the north without any defeat. But it was completely ruined at the hands of the big slut! The Battle of Yanyun, the Northern Expedition of Yongxi... These two super battles made the glory of the Great Song Forbidden Army go forever! In the current era of Renzong, the forbidden army is synonymous with old soldiers and semi-paralyzed...

But Gao Jixuan remembered where this was, this is Linzhou, Fuzhou, Fengzhou! Countless legendary stories of the Great Song Dynasty originated here, and the people's combat effectiveness here is high enough to be proud of Song Liaoxia Jin!

General Gao immediately recruited the border people on the spot, on the condition that the identity of the box army and the treatment of the forbidden army were the conditions, especially at this time the defense of the country is to protect the family, and the party members have been killed at the doorstep, what to do, you know for yourselves!

A new army was born in half a day. It was very good for General Gao to give them the name "Qingbian Army", although the number was not large, only more than 2,000 people. But Li Yuanhao will immediately know that the combat strength of more than 2,000 people is terrifying!

Gao Jixuan successfully led out Li Yuanhao's besieging troops, which numbered tens of thousands. They followed Gao Jixuan and pursued them all the way to Sansongling. Here, Lee Won-ho's nightmare began. This is a mountainous area, and the heavy cavalry and iron harriers of the party are all waste. In this way, they lost the most advantageous condition for defeating the Song army in the first two battles - the terrain. Whether it is Sanchuankou or Haoshuichuan, it is the ambush location chosen by Li Yuanhao, because there is a flat river...

So in Sansongling, tens of thousands of regular troops of Western Xia were defeated by more than 2,000 people, and more than 1,000 people were beheaded! Then something even more terrifying happened: the escape of the heavily armored cavalry!

Not that it's shameful to escape, but it's too difficult. In mountainous conditions, several horses in iron armor and still connected together have to turn around and run away, how many times do you have to practice this technique to become proficient? I don't know if Li Yuanhao has any tricks, anyway, there are not a few who fell into the valley that day, plus they were trampled to death by their own people...

Return to the city of Linzhou. The general of Shoulin Prefecture is called Wang Kai, who is the descendant of Wang Quanbin, the commander of the Shu eradication of the year, and the real descendant of the general. At this time, Wang Kai personally supervised the battle, so that another weakness of the Western Xia army was also exposed-it would not attack the city!

Before this, only Li Jiqian had captured Lingzhou City, but that was a siege for nearly two years! At this time, Li Yuanhao's troops had not broken through any of the Song Dynasty's state-level cities. Siege is not a hard work, thinking that you can succeed if you don't want to climb up? It takes equipment, knowledge, experience, and patience... None of these Li Yuanhao!

Next, Li Yuanhao made a decision that could be called death - he turned around and pounced on Fuzhou! Everyone knows Lu Dao, the three cities of Hedong, Lin, Fu and Feng are the strongest, and Fuzhou is the strongest! Could it be that Li Yuanhao doesn't know what to do?

The momentum of the Western Xia army along the way was not bad, and first broke through the important military village Ningyuan Village between Lin and Fu, and the owner of the village, Wang Shigan, and the supervisor Wang Xian were killed. After that, the city of Fuzhou was surrounded on all sides, and he was ready to storm it...

This is in the heart of Fuzhou City. The last thing Fuzhou City is afraid of is a tough battle! Fuzhou is built on the mountain, strong and steep, it is simply a huge eagle's nest, and there are water gates in both directions in the east and south, and outside is the greatest river in Chinese history - the Yellow River. Whether it is taking water or moating the city, there are innate advantages... To put it plainly, Fuzhou is actually a feudal town! Since the Five Dynasties, it has monopolized this place, raising its own taxes, and acting as a monarch. Even Zhou Shizong Chai Rong and Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin in the world of Weizhen can't help but recognize its independence! It is equivalent to Li Yuanhao's ancestor Li Yixing's status, and there is basically no difference between a "fixed and difficult military festival envoy" and a "quiet and difficult military festival envoy" except for the size of the territory.

And the most important point: the vassal king of Fuzhou City, Zheshi, is also a member of the party. This party item is different from the other party item, Fuzhou Zheshi is a beautiful and fierce legend! folded, the Northwest people read it as she. Over time, it evolved into "She", that is, She Saihua's She! The legendary Yang family general, the highest ranking and most respected She Lao Taijun, is the original form of the girl of the Fuzhou Fold family! There are famous generals in the Zhe family, proud of Song Liaoxia Jin! "History of the Song Dynasty Volume 253: The Biography of the Zhe Family" "The Zhe clan has Fugu, which is no different from Li Yixing's residence at the beginning of Xiazhou. Taizu Jiaqi resounded, Xu to hereditary, although not without the suspicion of Shiqing, since Ruan down, the birth of a famous general, the world is loyal, enough to defend the northwest. It can be said that it is not inferior to the Song Dynasty."

At this time, the Zhejia army had passed its heyday, with only 6,100 people. But the quality will make Li Yuanhao cry out in pain.

The battle begins on a path under a mountain cliff. Fuzhou City has been in operation for nearly 100 years and has no flaws, and it is a relatively weak place. The Western Xia soldiers quietly climbed up. As a result, he rolled down in an earth-shattering manner. The city was covered with wood and thunder stones, arrows rained down, and the Western Xia army suddenly lay down in a large area.

In the transition, Li Yuanhao ordered to attack Beicheng again. The contest of strength begins. Zhe Jimin, the head of the generation of the Zhe family, personally went into battle and fought bloodily, and the corpses under the city of Fuzhou accumulated higher and higher. With more than 1,000 bodies, Li Yuanhao finally saw the soft underbelly of Fuzhou City - the southwest city wall. It was really a bit short there, Li Yuanhao ordered the northern city to continue the attack, drag the main force of the Zhe army, and at the same time storm the southwest city wall, as long as it rushes up, the iron-walled Fuzhou City will fall! At the critical moment, the strongest general on the Northwest Battlefield and Li Yuanhao's biggest nightmare in his life appeared!

If you want to select the bravest generals in the Song and Xia battles, whether it is Wang Qi, Guo Zun, or Di Qing, who has been famous for centuries, they will automatically take a step back. That person's surname is Zhang, and his name is Qi. A native of Fuzhou City!

At this time, Zhang Qi rushed to the southwest city wall of Fuzhou City. With a rain of guns and arrows in the city, how can you turn the situation around with one person? Zhang Qi "shouted" on the top of the city, and used his own flesh and blood to rebuild a line of defense! The price was an arrow under the right eye and three stab wounds on the body...

The city walls were unharmed, and finally the Western Xia army was repulsed. After that, he guarded the city day and night, and the southwest city wall was his post! The situation has stabilized a little, and new problems have arisen ...

Outside Fuzhou is the Yellow River, but the city is the same lack of water, and the location here is the junction of present-day Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces, which has been drought since ancient times. And the difference between Fuzhou City and Linzhou City is also revealed. Linzhou City needs foreign aid, and Fuzhou City can handle everything by itself! Zhang Yu ordered the city to be opened, and the people in the city paid attention, but they could go out to fetch water at will, and the Xixia people would never hurt you! As he said, Zhang Qi led the army to fight and drove the Xixia people across the other bank, and the people of Fuzhou freely carried water home. In this regard, Li Yuanhao is helpless... That's what a cow!

What to do? Remove! Li Yuanhao killed Fengzhou this time. To be honest, it's not a matter of strategic choice anymore. Because of the three cities east of the river, only Fengzhou is left, and he hasn't tried it yet...

On August 18, the castle of Toyosu fell. Zhizhou Wang Yuqing, Sun Ji, Hou Xiu and others died in battle... Li Yuanhao's spirit has fully returned, and for the first time in his life, he has captured the state-level cities of the Great Song Dynasty with his strength!

So he plundered the troops and razed the three military villages around Fengzhou, such as Yong'an, Laiyuan, and Baoning, to the ground, and on the other hand, he built a glazed fort to store a large number of materials, which was used as a fulcrum to deliver supplies to the Western Xia troops in various places on the Hedong Road, preparing for a protracted war. Li Yuanhao wants to starve to death the people of the Song Dynasty!

He built Jianning Village on the border between Lin and Fu Prefectures, and the village was very simple and had only one use, cutting off the connection between Lin and Fu Prefectures, and cutting off the connection between Kaifeng and Lin and Fu Prefectures, so that they were completely isolated. You can get water, but I have strangled all the roads except the city, where will the supplies and food come from? Jincheng soup pool, if you don't keep it, you will starve to death if you are hungry!

Li Yuanhao hit the key point of the Song Dynasty! This is a weakness that the Song army has not been able to remedy - field warfare! If the field war cannot be won, such a siege is doomed to death...

The materials and water resources of the two prefectures of Lin and Fu are being rapidly depleted. The time has entered August and September of the lunar calendar, and the hottest season of the year has arrived, and both soldiers and civilians in the city have to eat, drink, and wear, but there is a shortage of everything, and the most terrible thing is that even the war supplies are about to run out...

Paradoxical? The dignified three cities of Hedong are so prominent and prestigious, but they don't even have enough combat reserves? But that's just the way it is! In the past three years, the Song Dynasty has supported the war on the four roads of Shaanxi with the strength of the whole country, and there is really no money to invest in other border lines. You can only hit where you want, and then add to it. At this time, the problem arose, the soldiers and food of the Song Dynasty were actually on the way, but they couldn't be transported...

At the critical moment, Lord Kang Deyu, the military director of Hedong Road, was very wise: Zhang Qi, I now appoint you as the road inspector of Lin and Fu! The task is to open the road between Lin and Fu and send the materials transported by the imperial court! In order to ensure the smooth success of the mission, I will allocate you people... 50 rides! So generous! I don't know what Lord Kang's intentions are, Zhang Qi rushed out of Fuzhou City like this...

Fortunately, this grain protection was a joint operation of the Song Dynasty military, in addition to Zhang Qi, there were also 6,000 soldiers of Wang Kai, the defender of Linzhou City, who guarded a large number of supplies and a eunuch named Song Yongcheng on the road together.

When I walked to Qingmeilang, I encountered the Xixia army in ambush! The first charge of the party people separated Zhang Qi and Wang Kai. The battle takes place in the wasteland, there are no cities, no chariots, it is 100% field battle! What the Song army has is incredible combat power! In the chaos, a cold arrow suddenly hit Zhang Qi's head, so that everyone thought he was dead - the whole long arrow pierced both of his cheeks! But he stretched out his hand and pulled out the arrow, and the blood flowed profusely, and then he rushed at the enemy even more bravely...

The Western Xia ambush was repulsed and was beheaded by level 65. Zhang Qi and Wang Kai reintegrated their troops and moved forward again! Everyone knows that the road ahead is even more difficult, because Li Yuanhao will pounce like crazy... (To be continued......)
