As Ningyuan's army sent troops to prepare for war, all the forces in China were staring at Ningyuan's army. Seeing that the Song army on the opposite side acted like a dead dog so obediently, the man who had just ascended the throne last year
The Khitan Emperor Yelu Hongji simply transferred all the Khitan troops to the Bohai Bay area, and immediately surrounded Liaoyang Prefecture in Tokyo and Xijin Prefecture in Nanjing. You must know that this area was the most elite place of the Liao Dynasty.
Ningyuan's army and the 300,000 temporarily recruited infantry took iron fishing boats and wooden ships from the Song Dynasty, entered the waters of the East China Sea directly from the estuary of the Yangtze River, and then headed north along the route. The mighty army was shocked.
Attracting everyone, the people in the south of the Yangtze River rushed out to watch this rare scene in a hundred years.
"Xianggong Shen, isn't this right? These are all temporarily recruited soldiers, and Prince Ning's elite troops don't seem to have appeared." Xianggong Han also came to Jiangning Mansion with Xianggong Shen, and looked at the mighty army marching in front of him.
It felt strange.
"Hmph! Prince Ning must have been guarding the court and was not prepared to use all his strength in this Northern Expedition." After all, Mr. Shen had been dealing with Suning for more than two years. He had long been aware of Suning's depth and treachery, but he just kept doing it.
It’s unclear whether Suning is Cao Cao or Wang Mang.
"Yes! I heard that these 300,000 infantry were all surrendered by Dali and Jiaozhi. King Ning must have noticed the resistance in the southwest, so he took the opportunity to send troops to Khitan to consume the resistance in the southwest." At this time, Mr. Han Daxiangong
I couldn't help but think of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty's strategy for Goryeo, and guessed that Suning just wanted to kill two birds with one stone.
"Hey! Our young Prince Ning is the real thousand-year-old fox. No matter whether he wins or loses in this northern expedition, it will make Ning Yuan's army more stable in the south of the Yangtze River."
"Xiangong Shen, I heard that you intend to betroth your eldest granddaughter to Prince Ning?" Then Xianggong Han suddenly looked meaningfully at Xianggong Shen aside and asked.
"Eh? I'm hesitating." Mr. Shen knew that many nobles knew his intentions, but he still couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Oh? Prince Ning has already formed a booming situation. Why do you still have worries, Mr. Shen?" At this time, Mr. Han felt a little stunned, because no matter whether Suning succeeded or failed in the end, anyway, the king of the county was
You can definitely not lose your title.
"Xiangong Han, we have been ministers in the same palace for so many years, I will not lie to you. Now the entire Ningyuan army is tied to one person, King Ning, and the three heirs are all so young. What if?
If something unexpected happens to King Ning, the entire Jiangnan land and the Ningyuan army will collapse." Grand Prime Minister Shen did not have any need to hide anything, and then carefully stated his biggest worry.
"Yes! Prince Ning has completely severed ties with the Gu family. It is indeed a puzzling move. If the Gu family is the foundation of Prince Ning's palace, then he is a real top power in the Song Dynasty." At this time,
Mr. Han also shook his head with some regret. His young children and declining family status were Suning's biggest shortcomings.
"So, whether Jiangnan will be a flash in the pan or a rising star will depend on Prince Ning's personal fortune."
“Prime Minister Shen’s words are right!”
Looking at the mighty Ningyuan Army fleet heading through the Yangtze River towards the seaport, the two Grand Masters at this time had an extremely complicated mentality. They both hoped that Ningyuan Army could successfully inflict serious injuries on the Song Dynasty.
The Khitan wanted the ferocious Khitan soldiers to directly wipe out the powerful Ningyuan Army. Perhaps their biggest hope was that the Ningyuan Army and the Khitan would defeat both sides, so that the Song Dynasty would have the upper hand against the Khitan, and at the same time it could
Take Suning to Bianjing City and lock him up tightly.
…
At this time, all the coasts near the Bohai Bay were on alert. Naturally, not only the Khitan soldiers were nervously watching the coastline in front of them, but the Song army here was not much better. The British had already visited the Bohai Bay line early.
I want to see with my own eyes the specific battle situation between the Ningyuan Army and the Khitan Army, so that I can make plans on how to defend against the Ningyuan Army in the next step.
"My lord, there was a heavy fog suddenly this morning. I think Ningyuan's army will not march." The deputy general looked at the sea level where the fog suddenly appeared, and he couldn't help but look at the British prince with a relaxed tone and smile.
"Hmph! Yesterday, the Imperial City Department reported that the Ningyuan Army's fleet had entered the Bohai Bay. We have to wait cautiously." At this time, the British Duke said cautiously.
"Master Guo, there is no need for our Song Army to be so nervous, right? You must know that the Ningyuan Army also belongs to our Song Army, and they will definitely not attack our side of the Song Dynasty." Seeing the British Duke in front of him, he was so nervous and nervous.
Cautious, the lieutenant smiled disapprovingly.
"Well, it is unlikely that the Ningyuan Army will directly attack our Song Dynasty. Otherwise, there is no need to go around such a large bay to attack from the sea. But I still have to see the strength of the Ningyuan Army with my own eyes. You must know that the Ningyuan Army is ours.
The inner thorn in the side of the Song Dynasty court."
"Ah? Mr. Guo, is it possible that the Ning Yuan Army will rebel against the imperial court?" Hearing that the British Duke was so guarded against the Ning Yuan Army who was also an ally, the deputy general showed a shocked expression at this time. After all, Wang with a different surname is already one of them.
It’s beyond our reach.
"Hmph! General Yang, haven't you noticed that the supply of supplies has become more and more difficult recently?" Seeing that his lieutenant could be so stupid, the British Duke asked angrily.
"Ah? What do you mean, Lord?" the lieutenant asked, still looking blankly at the British Duke in front of him.
"The taxes in the south of the Yangtze River account for 60% of the Song Dynasty's court. Without these 60% of taxes, there is no way to fight against the Khitan and Xixia, so our Song Dynasty and the Ningyuan Army will have a battle next." Although my lieutenant is indeed a bit stupid,
After all, he is considered an outstanding disciple of the Song Dynasty Xungui lineage, so he is naturally willing to spend more words and patience to teach by words and deeds.
"ah?"
Near Tianjin in later generations, the Khitan soldiers were also on guard with nervous faces. When they saw heavy fog suddenly appeared on the sea, they couldn't help but feel relieved. They all thought that Ningyuan's army would not attack today. The Khitan soldiers would not attack today.
The naval forces nearby also slowly relaxed and docked at the temporarily built dock nearby. After all, the Khitan soldiers were not specialized in water warfare.
"General, what do you think that is?" At this moment, a Khitan soldier suddenly pointed at the sea in the distance and shouted, as if he had seen some incredible ancient beast.
The Khitan general followed the soldier's direction and looked at the sea in the distance in surprise. He saw a huge iron ship slowly appearing from the heavy fog, like a giant beast from ancient mythology.
The huge cannon muzzles were all aimed at them, the Khitan soldiers. Just as they stared at everything in front of them with their mouths wide open in horror, the six extremely thick cannon barrels were mercilessly fired at them.
Fired at them.
As countless cannonballs fell across the sky and exploded, the Khitan's defense line was easily torn apart. Naturally, this battleship was a modern battleship that Suning took out from the space world. He waited until the six battleships
After the main guns roared fiercely for a quarter of an hour, the mighty Ningyuan Army finally vented its anger, and then several tank landing ships appeared from behind the battleship and rushed up quickly, followed by the tanks inside the landing ship.
They rushed directly to the shore through the springboard, but there was no resistance at all on the shore, because at this time the remaining Khitan soldiers hated their parents for giving them fewer legs and ran away.
After all the tanks rushed to the shore and took up their positions, the cavalry of the Ningyuan Army rushed ashore through the landing ship. It only took a long time to form an attack formation again, and then with a sound from Suning
Under the command, they rushed directly towards the Khitan's Nanjing Xijin Mansion. The Khitan cavalry troops encountered along the way were directly eliminated by the tank soldiers. The Ningyuan Army cavalry behind them also followed the tanks and advanced quickly.
The tank cavalry combination of the Ning Yuan Army had already arrived at the city of Xijin Prefecture in Nanjing, Khitan. Finally, the 300,000 infantry of the Ning Yuan Army also boarded the shore one after another through fishing boats and wooden boats, and swept the fallen leaves directly behind the tank cavalry combination with the autumn wind.
In this way, they controlled the city captured by the assault troops.
In later generations, there was also such a Ningyuan army combination near Dalian, which had successfully advanced to the Khitan Liaoyang Prefecture in Tokyo. Such a novel and fast combat method directly stunned the Khitan army. The Khitan side had no ability to block it.
On the defensive line, the Khitan cavalry troops that usually defeated the Song soldiers also became lambs to be slaughtered.
"Mr. British, what are the siege weapons used by Ningyuan's army?" The Song army witnessed the Ningyuan army's devastating annihilation of the Khitan cavalry. The lieutenant general looked at Mr. British with his eyes widened in horror and asked.
"Hey! I don't know! I only know that our Song Dynasty is completely over." The British Duke shook his head blankly at first, and then bitterly predicted that their Song army had no ability to resist at all.
"ah?"
In fact, there is nothing wrong with what the British public said. It only took Ningyuan's army a month to besiege the Khitan's Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, and the other four capitals of the Khitan in the east, west, south, and south have been conquered by Ningyuan's army. Therefore, the Khitan army
All the elites in the territory were lost, and the last army holding on to Linhuang Mansion in Beijing also lost any will to resist.
…
It only took Ningyuan's army a month to wipe out all the elites of the Khitan, which directly shocked the Bianjing City, which was still singing and dancing. However, the old emperor and the great ministers who were in Bianjing City were all ashen-faced, and once again believed that Ningyuan
The army really looked down upon them in Bianjing City, otherwise they would have been turned into prisoners long ago.
"Your Majesty, please tell me about the specific battle situation?" The old emperor looked at the British Duke in the audience with a bitter look on his face and asked.
"Yes! Your Majesty." The British Duke quickly bowed in response, and then explained the specific battle situation in a concise and concise manner, "On April 1, Ningyuan's army marched from Haijin Town (Tianjin) and Tokyo Daohua City (Dalian) in the Liao Kingdom.
Attacking in two directions, using super-large ships and artillery carts that had never appeared before, they directly destroyed all the Khitan's defense lines. On May 1st, they had occupied the four capitals of the Khitan in the east, west, south, and south, and had already defeated the Khitan.
They went to Beijing and were surrounded by Linhuang Prefecture."
"Oh? Why didn't King Ning and Ning Yuan's army directly attack the Khitan and go to Beijing? Logically speaking, the remaining soldiers of the Khitan should not be able to resist it?" The old emperor was shocked and stunned at the same time. He couldn't help but look at the British Duke in confusion.
"Your Majesty, I guess that Prince Ning wants to go fishing." Before the British Duke could answer the old emperor's question, the thoughtful Prime Minister Shen suddenly came out and said to him.
"What? Fishing? The elites in the Khitan territory have been exhausted, so where will the reinforcements come from to go to Beijing to support them?" The old emperor couldn't help but feel confused again.
"Your Majesty, what Prince Ning must be waiting for is Xixia Yipintang."
"Oh? What do you mean by Mr. Shen's words? Could it be that Xixia will go to support Daliao?"
"Yes! You must know that after Daliao was wiped out by King Ning and Ningyuan's army, the only remaining Xixia was definitely no match for Ningyuan's army. Naturally, they would not let go of this opportunity to support Daliao in going to Beijing."
"Well, that makes sense! So does Prime Minister Shen think that Prince Ning can resist and live in the Xixia Yipin Hall?" The old emperor nodded with approval at first, and soon became a little worried. Their court knew very well that Xixia
The strength of Yipintang.
"Your Majesty, since King Ning destroyed Dali two years ago, he has been secretly contacting martial arts people all over the world. It is said that he forcibly conquered Murong Longcheng and Murong Bo and his son from Yanziwu in Gusu City, and also befriended Xiaoyao from Piaomiao Peak in Tianshan Mountain.
Sect, and have become close friends with Wu Yazi, the new head of the Xiaoyao Sect, and I believe there should be no problem in fighting against the Xixia Yipintang."
"Haha, it seems that our Prince Ning really made a decision before taking action!" At this time, the old emperor smiled bitterly, realizing that he was no match for Suning and Ning Yuan's army.
"Your Majesty, this is a great event for our Song Dynasty court. When King Ning and Ning Yuan's army capture the Khitan royal family, Your Majesty, you can go to the Ancestral Temple to present the prisoners."
"Ah? Offer prisoners?" At this time, the old emperor couldn't help but feel his breathing becoming short of breath.
At this time, both King Yong and King Yan attended the court meeting because of the matter of adopting a clan son, so the aggrieved King Yong immediately looked at the old emperor and suggested, "Your Majesty, the matter of offering prisoners does not need to be considered immediately.
The top priority should be to send a large army to take over the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun as soon as possible."
"What?" At this time, all the ministers in the court looked at King Yong like a fool.
