The large-scale construction of fortresses on the Song-Xia border in the Great Song Dynasty inevitably alarmed the Jingsai Military Division of the Western Xia Wei Prefecture on the opposite side.

"The Great Song Dynasty is building a city again?" The chief general of the Jingsai Army, Wei Ming Ah Wu, couldn't help but be shocked when he received a report from the front.

He didn't expect the Song people to be so bold, the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was leading a large army to attack the Great Song Dynasty on the Yanyan Road, and the Song people were still building a city on Jingyuan Road.

"Song people, this is a good scar, forget the pain, forget about Yongle City!" Nito Baozhong sneered.

The battle of Yongle City was the most proud battle of Western Xia, and the first battle destroyed Yongle City, which was the greatest threat to Western Xia, and killed and sent 200,000 people, which can be described as a great result.

Wei Ming Ah Wu shook his head and said: "The battle of Yongle City, although my Great Xia was victorious, but it was also extremely lucky, one is that Xu Xi was stubborn at that time, and the generals were not in harmony, the second is that Yongle City lacks water sources, and the third is that we don't count the casualties, so we captured Yongle City, and now the Song people are not willing to accept the defeat of Yongle City while the main force of Great Xia is not building the city!" ”

Renduo Baozhong said solemnly: "In this way, it will be even more impossible for the Song people to succeed in building the city!" It's hateful that the main forces of our others have been transferred away by the Queen Mother, otherwise how can the Song people be arrogant. ”

After Renduo Baozhong got the Song people to build a castle, he immediately formed cavalry to harass, but unfortunately Chongpu had already prepared and attacked head-on, coupled with the emptiness of the main force of the Jingsai Military Division, once the troops in his hands were damaged, the Jingsai Military Division would no longer have the strength to resist the Song army, and Renduo Baozhong did not dare to entangle too much, so he could only retreat to protect himself.

"Since that's the case, then report to the Queen Mother for decision!" Wei Ming Ah Wu said helplessly.

Renduo Baozhong frowned and said: "It's a pity that the Queen Mother has never liked us, at this moment the Queen Mother is attacking Yanyan Road, in case the construction of the city is the Song people's strategy to surround Wei and save Zhao?" I'm afraid we won't be able to escape responsibility. ”

Now that the mother party is dictatorship in the DPRK and China, the Liang family is more wary of party members like them who are loyal to the Li family.

Wei Ming Ah Wu sighed and said: "The emperor is already ten years old, and the pro-government is not far away, so we can't act rashly and wait for the opportunity." ”

Renduo Baozhong nodded solemnly, and the two immediately sent their own soldiers to send the movements of the Song people to the front line Empress Dowager Xiaoliang.

When Empress Dowager Xiaoliang received the battle report from the Jingsai Military Division, it was when the Song and Xia battles were at their most intense, and the Xia army had already penetrated into the hinterland of Dunyan Road when the Song army deliberately lured the enemy deeper.

"The Song army is building a fortress in the Jingsai Military Division." Empress Dowager Xiao Liang's face changed and exclaimed.

"No wonder the Song army is wrong for a period of time, and it actually took the initiative to engage our army and lure our army deep into the hinterland of Dunyan Road, which turned out to be to cover Jingyuan Road." Liang Yiqi, the prime minister of Western Xia, changed his face.

"Empress Dowager Qi, Jingsai Military Division is my Western Xia granary, once the fortress is completed, it will definitely repeat the disaster of Yongle City, and please ask the Queen Mother to order the return of the army and destroy this city to destroy my Western Xia." The faces of many party generals changed, and they immediately understood the seriousness of the situation.

"No! What if this is a plan for the Song people to surround Wei and save Zhao? Liang Yiqi hurriedly stopped.

Empress Dowager Xiaoliang frowned suddenly, she led the Western Xia army to conquer the Great Song Dynasty, and now she has only captured a Jinming Village, far from reaching the point of making the Great Song Dynasty succumb, if she retreats at this moment, I am afraid that it is the plan of the Song army.

"What's more, now that we are deep into the hinterland of the Great Song Dynasty, the Song army is watching from the sidelines, if we retreat rashly and shake the morale of the army, I am afraid that the Song army will take advantage of it." Liang Yiqi persuaded again.

"But the Jingsai military division is empty, if the Great Song Dynasty succeeds in building the city, my Great Xia granary will also be in danger." The party generals also argued that once the Great Song Dynasty succeeded in building the city, the threat was too great.

"What about building the city, the Yongle City back then was not captured by us in one fell swoop! Song Jun learned smart this time, and even built a city by the river, but he lost the natural danger, so why be afraid. Liang Yiqi sneered.

Empress Dowager Xiaoliang's heart moved slightly, and her heart was biased towards her brother Liang Yikui,

She is now alone, and it is indeed extremely risky to retreat rashly, not to mention that the purpose of their trip has not been achieved, if they fall into the Song people's plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao, I am afraid that they will completely lose their prestige.

However, she understood that if she wanted to gain a foothold in Western Xia, she had to win over the party nobles, and the position of the Jingsai Military Department was too important, once the Great Song Dynasty successfully built the city, it would definitely threaten the granary of Western Xia. ”

"Order the Weizhou Jingsai Military Division to obstruct the Song people from building the city at any cost." Empress Dowager Xiao Liang immediately ordered.

"Yes!" Immediately a herald hurried away.

"The Xia army attacked and immediately tested the true intentions of the Song army." Empress Dowager Xiao Liang ordered again.

Soon, the Western Xia army dispatched one after another and took the initiative to find the main force of the Great Song Dynasty for a decisive battle, but the main force of the Great Song Dynasty left as soon as it was a battle, and it did not fight the decisive battle of the Western Xia, but also maintained a threat to the Western Xia army.

"The Song army avoided but did not fight!"

"There is news that the newly built city of the Song army is called Pingxia City!"

"Nei Ying came to report that the Song Army's forbidden army carried a large number of divine arm crossbows to support Xincheng."

"The Liao State sent a secret report that the prison army of Pingxia City was Fan Zheng, the most trusted evil doctor of the Great Song Dynasty, and carried a secret weapon."

…………………………

As more and more news comes, it is enough to prove how much the Great Song Dynasty attaches great importance to Pingxia City.

"Hit the mark!"

Empress Dowager Xiaoliang's face was embarrassed, and at this moment she finally figured out the strategy of the Song people, which was to drag down the Western Xia army and cover for the Jingyuan Road.

"Withdraw!" Xiao Liang Tai said that since the capture of Jin Ming Village, the Great Song Dynasty has concentrated its forces, and the walls are clear, and it is impossible to break through the military village again, and the only way at the moment is to thwart the newly built city of the Great Song Dynasty, just like the Yongle City of the year, and defeat the Great Song Dynasty in a war.

"Empress Dowager Qi, the cavalry of the Song Army followed our army, intending to delay our army!"

"There are Song troops who destroy roads and bridges, and our army is blocked."

Really! As soon as the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang withdrew the army, the Song army tried her best to obstruct it, which further proved the truth of the Xia army's intelligence, and it was obvious that the Song army also attached great importance to Pingxia City.

"Pass the order down, send Hengshan Bubazi to open the way ahead, and the Iron Harrier snipe the Song army in pursuit." Empress Dowager Xiaoliang said fiercely.

Hengshan Bubazi is the infantry of Western Xia is extremely strong, and Iron Harrier is the elite cavalry of Western Xia, and its second army was dispatched, and immediately accelerated the steps of Western Xia withdrawal.

Rao is like this, hundreds of thousands of troops, involving the whole body, coupled with the Song army's efforts to obstruct, when the Western Xia withdrew from the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, more than half a month had passed.

In addition, it took two or three days for the Jingsai Military Division to find out that the Song army had built the city and then sent it to the hands of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, so it had been nearly 20 days.

Empress Dowager Xiaoliang left a part of her troops to prevent the Song army from retaliating, and led an army of 300,000 to Pingxia City.

"The Queen Mother can rest assured, it is impossible for the Song army to build the city on the 20th, the Song army of Yongle City took 40 days to build, and when we rush to Pingxia City, the guards will be wiped out, and the Great Song Dynasty will definitely give in again." Liang Yikui said with confidence.

Empress Dowager Xiaoliang couldn't help nodding slightly.

Although it is not impossible to build a city in twenty days, the less time there is, the smaller the city to build, and it will not be able to stop the Xia army at all, and if it is a large city, it may be difficult to complete it in twenty days.

"Empress Dowager Qi, the Jingsai Military Division is here to report! The Great Song Pingxia City is about to be built. ”

A herald hurriedly came to report, which immediately made the faces of Liang Yikui and Empress Dowager Xiao Liang freeze.
