Jing Xun lit the big firecrackers he made again and again, and stuffed linen lumps into the ears of the war horses again and again. In the end, after the firecrackers went off, the knights could still control the war horses with ease.
This time, everyone was finally reassured. Even the Xixia warriors, who were full of doubts, felt at ease after seeing this situation... A group of idiots just made their voices louder, and they actually let the Song army fight like this!
The morale of the military has been gathered together, and then there will be arguments again.
Where to hit?
The army is now around Weizhou, where the Jingsai Military Division is stationed.
Two to three hundred thousand troops, that's what Weizhou can put down... Fortunately, Xixia people don't choose where to live, they can live anywhere.
This place is the most suitable place for the Xixia army to garrison.
Going east, over the Hengshan Mountains, you will reach Huanzhou in the Song Dynasty. Going west, over the Shaniu Ridge, you can drive straight to Huichuan.
To the south, there are almost no passes and dangerous places, and you can fight all the way to Qinzhou.
Whether it was the original battle of Dingchuan Village or Haoshui River, they were all on this line.
Nowadays, such a large number of string-controlling warriors have been gathered, and most of them are cavalry... Except for the Han army, it should be said that all of Daxia are cavalry.
Originally, they were planning to attack Qinzhou directly, but the loss of Gaolan and the capture of both sides of the Jialu River by Zhonge made Xixia's camp a lot more noisy.
"The Jinning Army, the Suide Army, the Security Army, there are at least 70,000 to 80,000 Song troops in the entire east. Judging from the coverage and capture of the Jialu River Basin, the main attack of the Song Kingdom should be on the Zhong family in Huanqing..."
This is the traditional sphere of influence of the Shenyong Army Division in the left wing. Many of the Erlangs of my family were destroyed, and the territory was also harmed by the Song Army... I never thought that I would not be able to come back, it was just temporarily occupied by the Song Kingdom for a while.
"Longzhou, Yinzhou, Shizhou, Yanzhou, the entire Huanqing area is closely connected to the four states. Once the border villages are all lost, it indicates that the four states may all become border towns..."
When had Daxia ever had such worries? But this time, this kind of family was like crazy. They didn’t spare any mercy and pulled out almost the entire camp of Shenyong Army Division and Xiangyou Army Division in the left wing.
.
What exactly are you going to do?
But regardless of whether it will eventually come back, the current pasture is gone, and the sheep have no pasture, which will indicate that next year's production will definitely decrease.
Therefore, I wanted to mobilize the entire army to press to the east, push back the Suide Army and Jinning, and even attack Yanzhou directly...
"Your Majesty, Yuzang Huama and Mu Zheng in Lanzhou have never given any accurate information. The messengers have been coming and going many times this year, and they have always been vague."
"Now that the Song army has captured Gaolan, although it will not threaten Zhuo and Nanjunsi, it will definitely have a bad impact on the king's major event of recruiting Yu Zanghuama and Mu Zheng."
"Besides, I know about the feud between Lanzhou and Qingtang Siluo, but is it possible that the Song Dynasty doesn't understand it?"
"Guo Kui of Huichuan has many contacts with various forces in Lanzhou. Now that Gaolan is captured, if he takes advantage of the situation and goes south, I am afraid that Yu Zanghuama and Muzheng will turn around and submit to the Song Dynasty."
"From this point of view, the west side must be suppressed with heavy troops. Only by recovering Gaolan can the king's efforts in planning Lanzhou be in vain."
This seems to make some sense.
At this time, it is true that the father-in-law is right and the mother-in-law is right.
Everyone has their own position, and they can naturally find words that suit their own position and interests.
This is the case with many things. Different problems can be seen from different angles, and different conclusions can be drawn.
"Your Majesty, generals, why don't we think about the problem from another angle?"
"As we all know, the commander who is currently fighting against me in Daxia is the Crown Prince of the Song Kingdom, the future emperor of the Song Kingdom, and the only heir..."
Although Jing Xun was in Xixia, he was still unwilling to abandon his scholarly ways. For example, he felt that it was inappropriate to address the king, so he should formally address him as Your Majesty.
This is the only way Li Liang can cheat. Jing Xun prefers to show off, manipulate and show off.
At this time, he paused, waiting for someone to continue...
"What's wrong?"
Sure enough, someone took over. Jing Xun had a very superior feeling in the entire Xixia court.
"How many years have the Song Dynasty been at war with me in Daxia, but have we ever turned Ceyin into a main battle?"
"What is the purpose of Zhong E and Guo Kui being so crazy and not caring about going deep into our territory to fight in Daxia? Have you ever thought about it?"
"Their purpose is to cover up the fact that Qinzhou of the Song Dynasty has insufficient troops and commanders, and guide our Daxia cavalry to divide our troops to attack Gaolan and Jialuhe, thereby reducing the pressure on the Qinzhou area of the Song Dynasty!"
This time, Jing Xun asked and answered his own questions, not wanting to pause at all... He was worried that someone might have thought of it, leaving him unable to express the profound thoughts he was holding back.
Because he saw that Liang Yimi, the internal minister of the Daxia Emperor, seemed to be willing to speak, so he quickly finished his words.
really……
"Your Majesty, I agree with what Xianggong Jing said. His Highness Zhao Xi from the Song Dynasty led the war against us in Daxia this time because he has the precedent of conquering Annan southward."
"As for his so-called experience in the Southern Expedition, to put it bluntly, it was the Song Dynasty's civil servants who were afraid of Di Qing's great achievements and put the credit for the Southern Expedition on his head."
"Now that Di Qing is out of office due to illness, the Western Army of the Song Dynasty has lost its family, and Guo Kui is still considered a general capable of fighting with me in Daxia."
"But when I, the Great Xia, insulted the envoys and brutalized my warriors in the Song State, I launched a war with them across the entire border with the Song State. Such an approach made the Song State unable to transfer generals to the court for a while, and every time
We need to be on guard everywhere. That’s why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Song is the head coach.”
Liang Yimi couldn't hold it in any longer, and had some of the same ideas as Jing Xun. They didn't have a specific power base, so when considering it, they could completely ignore the current losses.
Unfortunately, Jing Xun still took the lead, so he said everything Jing Xun wanted to say sentence after sentence.
Shouldn't we say something at this time: It is really only one of us who understands our own people? At least Jing Xun and Liang Yimi think about the problem purely with Han people's thinking.
"Your Majesty, as the internal minister said, I have seen the prince of Song Dynasty, he is just a reckless and impulsive person."
"When I went on a mission to the Song Dynasty with Brother Ning Ling, the crown prince of Song Dynasty didn't know what he was doing and put himself in danger because of Brother Ning Ling's words of encouragement. He is not a calm character."
"With the current situation, no matter how rampant the Song army is on the east and west routes, I, Daxia, only need to concentrate our forces, go straight to Qinzhou, and capture the Song crown prince... let alone Gaolan Jialuhe, we will discuss extending the situation by then.
What about the state?”
When it comes to words, even in the imperial dynasty, these scribes are invincible, let alone in the Xixia court where they only know how to bend their waists and swords?
Jing Xun and Liang Yimi sang in harmony, and Xixia Xungui, who was still arguing about going east to west, was stunned.
It seems like that's really what happened.
Not to mention that there is a prince of the Song Dynasty in Qinzhou, the key is that this road is suitable for galloping horses, and there are dense military forts along the way...~ In other words, when the Daxia warriors go on an expedition, their rations depend entirely on plunder.
