Cha Ge, who was originally a famous general of the Xia Kingdom and had held military power for a long time, could not help but have a few ridges on his face now, and his eyebrows also showed an old look, which seemed to be caused by these days of hard work.
Since Li Renxiao succeeded to the throne, the Xia Kingdom's court policy has also begun to evolve towards a trend of emphasizing civility over military affairs. Cha Ge, who has long been the top military and political leader of the Xia Kingdom, seems to have returned most of his military power out of consideration to avoid suspicion.
However, now the Qi Dynasty invaded brazenly, and used domestic rebel forces to quickly cross the natural dangers of Hengshan and march straight in. It has already arrived in front of the capital of Xingqingfu. Cha Ge, a famous clan general who has made countless contributions to the Xia Kingdom, has no choice but to come out again and do everything possible.
Ability to turn the world upside down.
However, it is also somewhat similar to the situation of Cha Ge's lifelong enemy. Liu Fa, the commander-in-chief of the Western Army of the Song Dynasty and a natural god general, was coerced by Tong Guan's order and had no choice but to step into the ambush set by Cha Ge.
Even if he tries to adapt to the situation, he will inevitably suffer a huge defeat and almost lose his life; and now that Cha Ge has taken over the Qi Dynasty's army, it is already in a mess under the capital city. No matter how he can make good decisions and manage the army well, how can he turn things around?
, defeated the enemy armies of the Qi Dynasty that had invaded deep into the country's territory and were now at the peak of their momentum?
We can only do our best and obey fate...
Because of Ren Dejing and Li Shifu, the two rebels with military power and the Qi Dynasty's invasion of territory, they coordinated and coordinated with each other, and the timing was just right. The Buba Zijun, who was originally stationed in the Hengshan area, could go up and down hillsides, and went in and out of streams, and was good at mountain warfare, was completely confused.
It was of no use and suffered heavy losses due to being attacked from both sides and rebels taking the retreat. The southern defense line fell into chaos, and the Qi Dynasty invaded and attacked too quickly, leaving no time for Cha Ge to regroup.
The leader of the Xia Kingdom, Li Renxiao, also evacuated from Xingqing Mansion with many important officials under the escort of Tie Yaozi and other sharp cavalry troops a few days ago because of Cha Ge's advice. Since most of the Xia Kingdom's state capitals were located in the original and
The area bordering the Song Dynasty was almost entirely covered with vast grasslands and deserts to the north and northeast. Li Renxiao, the leader of the Xia Kingdom, wanted to escape to the key areas of the state capital that were still under his own rule, so he had no choice but to retreat all the way west to Xiliang Prefecture.
Xuanhua Prefecture, Suzhou and other state capitals belong to the Yongliang territory, but if they want to retreat, only Shazhou will be left in the extreme west of Xia State. Guazhou and the ancient Yumen Pass, the key pass connecting the Western Regions to the Central Plains, can be defended...
After passing the ancient Yumen Pass, we can see the Gaochang Uighurs who are now willing to become vassals of the Liao Empire established by Yelu Dashi. According to Chage's opinion, even if he asks for surrender and tribute, he has always wanted to regain the territory of his old homeland of the Liao Dynasty.
Troops were sent for rescue, but the distance between the Liao Dynasty in the west and Xingqing, the capital of the Xia Dynasty, was still very far away. Water far away could not save the fire nearby. Now we can only advise the leader Li Renxiao to keep the Xia Dynasty regime as much as possible.
By moving to the west and shortening the distance to the sphere of influence controlled by the Liao Dynasty in the west, only then can we use external forces to expel foreign enemies and regain territory.
As for Xingqing Mansion, the capital of the country, which is now in danger, it is still the foundation for the Xia State to control Gansu, Longshan, and northern Shaanxi, as well as the Saibei grassland. Brother Cha knew that it would be difficult to defend Xingqing Mansion from being breached by the Qi army, but in order to
By containing the Qi army and coordinating his own clan nephew, Li Renxiao, the leader of the Xia Kingdom, and the central court officials of the Xia Kingdom were able to successfully retreat to the land of Yongliang. At the same time, they tried their best to resist the Qi army's invasion at the front line. Unknown to Brother Cha
How long can he hold on, but he is still thinking hard and is determined to die...
"...The stone-throwing cannons made by the Qi Dynasty shook the heaven and the earth when they were fired, and they destroyed everything they hit. They were very effective in the war to destroy the Jin Dynasty and annex the Song Dynasty. I have also heard about it...Xingqing Mansion Although all kinds of defensive equipment are available, the range of fire is limited. After all, they cannot destroy the enemy's powerful siege weapons. I am afraid that the Qi army will have to repeat their old tricks. They will first use catapults to fire huge stone firearms and bombard the city walls until they are destroyed. If the city wall collapses and we raise a large number of troops to attack, Xingqing Mansion will eventually be unable to defend itself if it is so controlled by others and passively beaten. Now it has no choice but to take risks..."
After Cha Gehu spoke in a long voice, a Dangxiang ethnic general standing next to him, covered in military uniforms and strong armor, with a strong back and strong waist, immediately replied: "Now the Southern Dogs are rampant, the country's affairs are critical, and they have invaded... I, the capital of the Xia Dynasty, have a deep hatred for the last general. No matter how dangerous the situation is, as long as there is hope of killing the Qiu outside the city, I would rather just give the order!"
This general of the Dangxiang tribe was also an effective general who was led by Cha Ge and united with Xiao Tang to defeat the Jin army. However, after the war, he faced Renduo Wuhu, a provocative demonstration by Xiaotang. Hu recommended himself to ask for orders. Brother Cha hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Now we can't defend the city. We have to rob the camp at night and attack secretly. This is the only method available because there is no other good method. How can the enemy of the Qi Dynasty not know this? Because Ren De Jing, the traitor, defected and surrendered, and successfully occupied the military states south of Xingqing Prefecture... Even if I follow my deployment a few days ago, I will send people and horses to travel quickly, and urgently order Dingzhou, Huaizhou, and Jingzhou to the north. Chu's troops evacuated their base and detoured to the rear of the Qi army that invaded Xingqing Prefecture to act in accordance with our orders... However, the enemy's company camp was well organized and there were sentries and scouts looking around, so it would be difficult to act as a surprise force. ...
Renduo Wuhu, you summoned elite elite troops to attack the city at night. Not only did you want to burn and destroy all the slingshots and artillery that were not fully arranged outside the city, but also Han Shizhong, the Shaanxi economic envoy who was in charge of the various invading armies of our Xia Kingdom... It is necessary to attack the camp at night to kill him. However, since the Qi army has been prepared for this trip, it is bound to be a narrow escape. Even if you are lucky enough to succeed, I am afraid it will be difficult for you to return alive... "
On a strategic level, the only countermeasure that Brother Cha could come up with was to ask the country's leader Li Renxiao to take advantage of the fact that the Qi army had not yet reached the city, to protect the Xia Kingdom's imperial court team and evacuate to a more sparsely populated area in the west, and try to survive for as long as possible. During that time, the Liao Empire, which was established using the Yelu Dashi, made long-distance raids and rushed for reinforcements at starry night, and saved the Xia regime from being destroyed, and fought against the Qi Dynasty together; at the tactical level, Chage once again took over the command to resist the Qi Dynasty army, and defended the Xia Dynasty. The military power in the Xia Kingdom territory is already in a desperate situation. The new sling artillery invented by Ling Zhen after being prompted by Xiao Tang is also an epoch-making siege weapon in this season... It is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw, and Brother Cha is also exhausted. It is possible to make arrangements, but in the end the only tactic available is a night attack on the camp.
But now Renduo Wuhu is required to fill his life and die, serving as cannon fodder just to win the slim chance of victory. Brother Cha misses this Xia army warrior who was cultivated and promoted by himself, as well as Renduo Yili, the father of Renduo Wuhu. The two generations of father and son have served as his loyal confidants. Brother Cha felt this in his heart, and immediately told Renduo Wuhu that I want you to take orders in times of danger, but whether this mission is successful or not, together with being a Those who dare to kill the soldiers who go out of the city to attack at night will inevitably die in battle.
However, Renduo Wuhu grinned after hearing this, and then he clenched his fists and beat his chest hard until it made a banging sound. Then he said loudly: "The last general's family has been serving the country through life and death for the Xia Dynasty army for generations, and I I have been serving under Ning Ling's account with my father, and the kindness of promotion and reward has always been engraved in my heart! I can only regret that Xiao Tang did not come with his own chariot, and the final general will be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts, and he will avenge the murder of his father. Chou! As long as Ning Ling can be dispatched now, he can kill more pigs and dogs from the Southern Dynasty who are loyal to Xiao Tang!
Han Shizhong, the commander of the Shaanxi Economic Strategy, will fight to the death and cut off his dog's head! After all, the enemy's slinging artillery in the Southern Dynasties are displayed in front of the formation. With the blessing of the White Stone God, the general will do his best to fight with everyone. Erlang attacked the camp at night and destroyed and burned all the siege weapons of the Southern Dynasty. Even if he could not save his life and returned, for the sake of the safety of our Xia country, to repay Ning Ling for his great kindness, and to avenge the deep hatred of Xiao Tang's thieves... The final general I am willing to die!"
