Chapter 529: Western Xia, the Candle in the Wind

Li Ruolan's guess was not at all wrong. At the same time that she and Bai Qin were planning a counteroffensive against the Great Song Dynasty and killing Bai Sheng, this Liaoxia War had entered the final stage.

The Western Xia Kingdom is already a candle in the wind.

The fall of Hengshan, the fall of Yinzhou, the fall of Qingtang, the fall of Liangzhou, the fall of Ganzhou, the fall of Lingzhou, and the entire territory of Western Xia, there is only one Xingqing Mansion left that is still struggling to support, but it is already under the city, and it is in danger.

600,000 Song troops surrounded Xingqing Mansion, almost even wrapped up Helan Mountain, there were few soldiers in the Western Xia capital, and it was only a matter of time before the city was broken and people died.

Where did the elite soldiers and strong generals of Western Xia go? Of course, they were transferred away by "Li Ruolan."

Li Ruolan, dressed as Xiao Feng, appeared in front of Lingxing and Songba with Bai Sheng and others from Qingfeng Pavilion, claiming that she put them to death and survived, completed a big reversal in Qingfeng Pavilion, and defeated Bai Sheng and others, just waiting for the last time to try if they can be collected as wings, if Bai Sheng and others are stubborn, then what awaits them is a thousand cuts.

Under the strong pressure of "Li Ruolan", Bai Sheng and others finally knew that the current affairs were Junjie, the good birds chose the trees to perch, and the good ministers chose the master to do things, and knelt in front of "Li Ruolan" in front of Sumba and Lingxing.

For this reason, Songba and Lingxing couldn't help but admire, in terms of martial arts, maybe Li Ruolan is not the strongest in the world, but this ability to dominate is simply unmatched, even a murderer like Bai Sheng can be submitted, who else in this world she can't accept?

They only saw Bai Sheng kneeling down for Li Ruolan, but they didn't know that this Bai Sheng was pretending to be Hu Sanniang, with Xiao Feng here, it was no problem for anyone to pretend to be, as long as he was tall, short, fat and thin.

In fact, even if the height is far apart, it is nothing, the internal height increase technology is not a high-tech invented in later generations, fat people become thin, thin people become fat have a camouflage method, but it takes a certain amount of time to make temporary props.

Now that Princess Pingnan has turned the corner and controlled the overall situation, Songba and Lingxing have relieved their hearts and went to Emperor Li Qianshun with Li Ruolan to discuss the battle situation.

Li Ruolan put forward a plan that made everyone applaud.

Now that Bai Sheng has surrendered, he can let Bai Sheng, a traitor of the Great Song Dynasty, take the elite soldiers and strong generals to recover Hengshan, but how can he just recover Hengshan? Li Ruolan put forward a bolder idea, on the basis of recovering Hengshan, directly wielding Yanzhou City!

Take Yanzhou, Huanzhou, Gyeongju and Weizhou together, and completely abolish the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty!

This is only the first step of the plan, and the second step of the plan is to use Yan, Huan, Qing, Wei, and other places as bases to destroy the Great Song Dynasty in one fell swoop in the coming year!

If it is according to Li Qianshun's original intention, he will make a small fight to defeat one or two of the five armies of the Great Song Dynasty, let them take advantage of the excitement and return from defeat, and then extort some annual coins and war reparations.

Does Western Xia have the strength to destroy the Great Song Dynasty?

"Yes!" The fake Li Ruolan firmly told the imperial brother and the civil and military officials that as long as there was Bai Sheng in his hands, it would be easy for the Western Xia to destroy the Great Song Dynasty!

Immediately she made an introduction to the Western Xia monarchs, who is Bai Sheng? Bai Sheng is the vanguard officer of the front of the Western Expedition, the commander of the 100,000 army of the Fifth Road, and he is also the Tongjin Shi given by the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, promoted by the Taiyi Bureau, and the personal health doctor of the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty!

Wouldn't it be easy to take the Western Xia army to earn the border village of the Western Army with these identities?

In fact, Xiao Feng's rhetoric all came from Bai Sheng's face-to-face teaching, and the "big plan" that Bai Sheng conceived to tempt the Western Xia monarchs and ministers was exactly the same as the strategy proposed by Li Ruolan when he was taking a bath in the Vulture Palace later.

Indeed, as long as Bai Sheng was really willing to surrender to Western Xia, the success rate of this strategy was very high.

Therefore, after discussion, the Western Xia monarchs and ministers finally adopted the proposal of "Li Ruolan" and put all the elite soldiers of the whole country into this plan to destroy the Song Dynasty.

Of course, some people have raised questions, saying that if you threw all the elite soldiers to Hengshan, how to deal with the advance of the rest of the four-way army of the Great Song Dynasty?

The answer given by Li Ruolan was that as long as Hengshan and the four prefectures of Yan, Huan, Qing, and Wei were taken, the army of the Great Song Dynasty would immediately retreat to Bianjing without a fight.

The previous five expeditions have confirmed a truth, the forbidden army from the Great Song Dynasty was in a dilemma on the loess slopes and deserts of Western Xia, not only could not keep up with the grain and grass, but also could not eat the enemy, because the area they passed through was not the production area of grain, and because the Western Xia monarchs and ministers would also engage in strong walls and clear fields.

So even if they wanted to use the strategy of besieging Wei to save Zhao, they couldn't use it, because they didn't have the ability to besiege for a long time.

So Li Qianshun made a decision and handed over 300,000 elite soldiers to Li Liangfu, the generalissimo of the expedition to the east, and asked Li Liangfu to follow Bai Shengdong into Hengshan.

"Bai Sheng" really lived up to expectations, first sent his men and women to infiltrate Hengshan, and when the Western Xia army arrived, all the border villages opened their doors and surrendered.

Li Liangfu was overjoyed, he had never fought such an easy battle in his life, this was simply self-defeating, self-surrendering! So he let these miscellaneous troops who had surrendered continue to guard the fortress, and he and Bai Sheng passed through Hengshan with an army of 300,000 and directly surrounded Yanzhou City.

Of course, before besieging Yanzhou City, Xiao Feng had already sent Tang Long, the money leopard, to inform the Seed Master Dao of Yanzhou City in advance, although the Seed Master Dao did not believe that the news brought by Tang Long received by "Di Lie" was true, but in line with the principle of preferring to believe it, he still made some defensive preparations.

As a result, the 300,000-strong army of Western Xia fell into the quagmire of war that could not be attacked for a long time.

By the time they found out that Bai Sheng had suddenly evaporated, it was too late, not only could the grain and grass not be transported from Hengshan, but even the scouts they sent to contact Xingqing Mansion were like mud cattle entering the sea, and they couldn't retreat to Hengshan, and the fortresses that surrendered in Hengshan formed an extremely strong defense line to prevent them from returning to their homes.

Li Ruolan, disguised as Xiao Feng, did not follow the 300,000 army to attack Yanzhou, she rode the night jade lion to run between the various cities in Western Xia under the pretext of presiding over the overall situation, gathered the backbone of the defense in each city, and had an encounter with the middle road army led by Tong Guan.

Due to deliberate command errors, this encounter ended in the defeat of the entire Western Xia side, so there was a tragic situation in which all the cities of the Western Xia were lost, and the 600,000 troops of the Great Song Dynasty surrounded Helan Mountain.

At the moment when the real Bai Sheng left the ethereal peak of the Tianshan Mountains, the people in Xingqing Mansion and the children of dignitaries and dignitaries had already taken up their weapons and walked up to the city, fighting day and night on the city wall, hoping to support the success of the mediation of the Liao State.
