Chapter 69 leaning on the river (continued)

On April 8th, the Song army marched along the river for more than 60 miles before calmly stopping. At this time, the straight-line distance between them and Xingqing Mansion was actually only about 40 miles, even if they followed the turn of going down the river and then turning around. The distance is only more than fifty miles... In any case, no matter how you calculate it, the Song army can rest for the night tomorrow night and officially launch the attack on Xingqing Mansion the day after tomorrow, which is the tenth day of April.

This is a full two days ahead of schedule, and under the current situation, two days may very well be the time difference that determines the life or death of a country.

At the same time, the main force of the Song army, both foot and cavalry, and all the baggage and equipment were still present, so there was no loss at all.

To be fair, on this day, Weiming Anhui, the king of Liang in Western Xia, did his best. He let a small group of tribal light cavalry continue to harass, and let sheepskin rafts carry soldiers to attack from the river. However, the two were defeated by the more powerful crossbows of the Song army. It's all for nothing... The Jurchens, who are famous for their heavy armor, are afraid of the Song army's crossbows, let alone the hastily summoned tribal soldiers who lack armor at this time?

Of course, Anhui himself had expected this. After yesterday's on-the-battle observation, this Xixia veteran with rich war experience had no expectation that such an action would have any practical effect. Those people were simply forced to use it. Life is just to do as much harassment as possible. And this clan veteran, who currently has the most military experience in the Xixia Kingdom and is second only to the king, put his mind on two things from the beginning... One is to do everything possible Recruit and gather people from various tribes, the more the better; the other is to cross the Song army in advance and come to Jingzhou, which is almost next to the Yellow River, and then forcibly take away the Tibetan army and civilians here to relieve the defense of the place. , and threw the wealth and silk in the treasury and the gold goods in the temple onto the road east of Jingzhou City.

But it is a pity that the Song army did not go to Jingzhou at all. In the evening, the main force of 20,000 to 30,000 Song troops came to Jingzhou City on foot. Facing the open city gate, there was no golden silk shining in the sunset. If any military formation breaks out of the formation, the whole army will pass through the city without entering and continue to move forward.

This made the fear in Weiming Anhui's heart reach its peak.

After all, Dangxiang has never been a pure nomadic nation, and Xixia was not in a situation where the country was governed wherever the ruler was when Li Yuanhao was alive. In the past hundred years, the country established by the Dangxiang people was still unable to withstand Han culture. Strongly influenced by the Song Dynasty, the official system basically began to imitate the Song Dynasty. Han rites gradually overcame the Tibetan rites that were forcibly established at the founding of the country. Confucianism became a prominent school. Although the language, customs and military system with considerable national characteristics were still retained, the main culture still gradually gradually Favored the Chinese system.

Nurtured by various cultures, coupled with the richness of the Yinchuan Plain, the country has gradually formed its own core agricultural area, so it has finally formed a solid concept of a capital - Li Qianshun has not left Xingqing Mansion for many years.

Of course, Wei Ming Anhui couldn't explain these truths, and the Song army who abandoned Jingzhou and refused to enter might not be able to explain them either, but they all understood it on another level!

They know very well that the foundation of Xixia is in the Xitao area between Helan Mountain and the Yellow River, which is the Xingling land, and the heart of this place is Xingqing Mansion... Taking this city, no one can Dare to say that Xixia will perish, but this country will definitely go into shock immediately!

In a word, the gains and losses of Xingqing Mansion already have enough meaning.

For this reason, Weiming Anhui did not hesitate to use Jingzhou, one of his close cities, as bait in an attempt to slightly block the Song army's progress. The senior officers of the Song army did not hesitate to kill many soldiers and low-level officers who went to pick up the leaks. , and also want to go all the way north in order to ensure that we can launch an attack on Xingqing Mansion in the future.

In any case, in this delayed action, the Xixia people failed again.

"What King Liang did was right."

In a field ten miles northwest of Jingzhou City, against the backdrop of a bonfire, surrounded by several golden-armored warriors and tribal leaders, accompanied by the rumbling of drums in the distance, a man sat beside the bonfire, wearing a golden After listening to the report, the high-ranking party official raised his wrinkled face and sighed, but it was Li Qianshun, the leader of the Xixia Kingdom who was nearly fifty years old. "If I were here, I would use Jingzhou as bait."

On the other side of the bonfire, several local Jingzhou officials and tribal leaders became visibly sad and disappeared directly into the dusk. The gray-haired Weiming Anhui sat aside, feeling uneasy after hearing this. reduce.

After hesitating for a while, he directly skipped the Jingzhou question and asked the key:

"Your Majesty, if there is no obstruction tomorrow, the Song army can camp on the bank of the Zhengdong River in Xingqing Mansion, which is only more than twenty miles away from Xingqing Mansion and only more than ten miles away from the palace outside the city..."

"That's why I came to see Prince Liang in person." Li Qianshun's brows still didn't open. "Prince Liang, I haven't been able to sleep or eat well these past three days. I've been thinking about it over and over again. Do you think the Qingqi we have can defend the city? A large group of light cavalry does not go out to fight in the field, but instead defends the city. Isn't this just bringing its own shortcomings?"

"I think so too..." Prince Liang sighed, and then responded with a serious expression, but he was obviously about to say something but hesitated.

"Today's situation is all due to my incompetence and stupidity. It has nothing to do with you. As long as I can survive it, I will give you any words of advice." Li Qianshun didn't even look at Weiming Anhui. He just listened to the voice and knew what the other party intended to express, but It was a direct urging. "If King Liang has anything useful to say, please tell me quickly."

"Your Majesty," Weiming Anhui said with difficulty. "The Xingqing Mansion has been renovated and expanded many times, but it is not as much as when I was the Grand Master more than ten years ago... At that time, the country was rarely stable, and Your Majesty Xingqing Confucianism and Han rites started, and I expanded Xingqing Mansion and built water conservancy... I am not showing my merits, but I want to say that I built Xingqing Mansion with my own hands, but I already knew that the city had too many flaws. !”

"How come I don't know?" Li Qianshun nodded slightly. "I personally ordered you to build a large temple in the north of the city and a spacious palace in the east of the city. These two places can only serve as siege stairs for the Song army in vain... But at that time, who could have thought that the Song army would arrive here? Since the founding of the country, Xingqing Mansion has probably not been touched by anyone, and it is not a false statement that it will be peaceful for a hundred years."

At this point, two bad old men, one in their late fifties and the other in their sixties, who were also the two highest-ranking monarchs and ministers in the heart of Xixia at the moment, had a rare moment of silence together by the campfire.

Let's say that Weiming Anhui is slightly older and Li Qianshun is slightly younger. There is a difference of more than ten years, and Anhui is one generation higher than Li Qianshun, but their political and military experiences basically overlap... In other words, these monarchs and ministers have experienced together too many things.

Starting from the attack on Song Dynasty from behind Xiaoliang, Weiming Anhui rose to prominence and gained certain military power. Then, after the Khitans poisoned Xiaoliang, Li Qianshun trembled and cried for the Khitan princess to become his queen. However, he could only regard Anhui as his father-in-law and grand master. He led the Privy Council, and Anhui, as a clan minister, became the chief of hundreds of officials and a powerful minister in the early days of Li Qianshun's reign.

Later, Li Qianshun asked for the Khitan princess, defeated the Song people militarily, and negotiated peace with the Song Dynasty, stabilizing the country, and his status became increasingly stable from a low position. This Shangfu, who was only ten years older than the king, naturally His power was gradually reduced. Many years ago, Li Qianshun succeeded in replacing the opponent with his adult brother Weimingcha Ge to control the army. This person was completely idle... In the so-called East Asian monarch drama, the two of them are actually not missing... except Today, the Song army suddenly stabbed a knife into its belly. There was no known general available, so they hastily used such an old minister.

However, these old grudges will not affect the sincere cooperation and silent understanding between the two at this time, because both of them understand that Dabai Gaoguo has really reached its most dangerous moment.

After thinking for a while, Weiming Anhui finally broke the silence: "Your Majesty, what I mean is that defending the city is not as good as fighting in the field. After all, we still have to try it in the field."

Li Qianshun perked up. This was what he was waiting for... At this time, it was one thing to bring all the troops into Xingqing Mansion, but it was another thing to fight desperately outside the city... This military plus political account, Li Qianshun In fact, I have already calculated it very clearly, otherwise he would not come here personally, and the words just hinted enough, but he needs someone to stand up and give him courage, and tell him and the surrounding tribal leaders that this is the right thing to do. of.

"I have three reasons." Weiming Anhui steeled himself under the watchful eyes of the surrounding golden-armored warriors and the remaining leaders of some tribes, and spoke hard by the campfire. "One is what your Majesty said before, we are mostly light cavalry, and we have always been I have never heard of cavalry abandoning their horses to defend the city. The other one is what I just said. The Buddhist temples and imperial mausoleums are all outside the city. The imperial palace is simply on the march of the Song people. The large Buddhist temple in the north of the city is also next to the city wall, and the imperial mausoleum is at the foot of Helan Mountain in the west... When the Song army attacks, should we burn the palace ourselves, or should we burn down the palace ourselves? Let the Song people burn it? Once it is burned, how can the morale of the troops in the city be maintained? What is most scary is that instead of burning it, the Song people will take advantage of the terrain and materials of the palace and temple to attack the city. What will happen then?"

The tribal leaders finally began to speak out.

After a while, Li Qianshun suddenly stood up, drew his sword in front of everyone, and chopped down the wooden table in front of him that contained food and water by the campfire... With one strike, he was old and weak, but he couldn't cut it in two. Just cutting the knife into a few cases got stuck...but it was enough.

After all, Li Qianshun had been the leader of the Dabai Gao Kingdom for forty or fifty years and did not need these things to boost morale. His words and orders were enough.

This knife is just an expression of determination.

"I have made up my mind." After the sword went down, Li Qianshun let go and held the scabbard by the campfire and looked around. "According to what King Liang said, tomorrow we will unite an army of 100,000 people and fight to the death with the Song people by the river. Don’t let the Song Dynasty people enter the Xingqing Mansion! If any tribe disobeys military orders, I will let them be exterminated. If there is such a case!"

As soon as these words came out, Liang Wang Weiming Anhui knelt down and kowtowed, saying that he had received the order. The other tribal leaders also kowtowed on the ground, and then stood up and shouted strangely, echoing the strange screams under the drums in the distance.

The morale of the army was suddenly boosted as the emperor of the Dabai Gao Kingdom, who had been in power for almost fifty years, came in person and made a decision.

After the decision was made, everyone dispersed to prepare for the battle tomorrow.

However, during this period, Liang Wang Weiming Anhui walked a few steps, but was grabbed by Li Qianshun in the dark. The former turned around and saw the latter whispering to him: "Liang Wang!"

"I'm here."

"You built Xingqing Mansion." Although the monsters around him kept shouting, Li Qianshun lowered his voice again. "You are the most suitable person to defend the city. Although Xue Yuanli and the Han officials are loyal, they are useless. Prince Both the King of Yue and the King of Yue have returned to the capital... If the Song army cannot be stopped tomorrow and there is no time to speak on the battlefield, you should leave me alone and go directly back to Xingqing Mansion to take charge of the defense. If I cannot arrive in time, you can arrange various arrangements in the name of the prince. Regardless of whether it is a palace or a Buddhist temple, you can demolish it if you want, burn it if you want, and use the treasures if you want to use them, and reward them if you want to reward them, no need to worry!"

An Hui was silent for a long time in the dusk, and then he nodded heavily. However, it was too dark here, but all he could see was the golden crown on his head shaking up and down, causing a flash of light.

Not to mention what Weiming Anhui was thinking, on this side, after Li Qianshun delivered the last important order, he turned to a tall tent behind him and finally put down the serious and fierce expression on his face, looking a little depressed. .

It is true that as the oldest and most experienced king among all countries, Li Qianshun has experienced too many things, which are even legendary. Not to mention him and his mother, his father-in-law, and his wife and children. From the current military perspective, Xixia's military victories against the Song Dynasty are enough to make him proud.

However, if others don’t know, how can Li Qianshun himself not know?

Although Xixia had several remarkable military victories and repeatedly sent the Song army into disaster situations, in fact, the occurrence of these wars meant that Xixia was strategically pushed to the brink of national subjugation by the Song Dynasty... Let Li Qianshun made the choice himself. He would rather be the Emperor of Peace than go through the political and military crises that made him the leader of the country. Otherwise, how could he ask for peace from the Song Dynasty after winning battles? Kowtow to the Liao Dynasty for marriage?

Of course, he was somewhat lucky. From the time he was in power, he had been in trouble because of the Song Dynasty's construction of Pingxia City. But suddenly, Jingkang came, and the noose hanging around his neck was suddenly untied. .

Although he lost tens of thousands of field elites in Yinshan, he defeated Pingxia City and the Dingbian Army without delay, and even took a small part of Xi'an Prefecture... Moreover, the ruler of Dajin also At one time, he was willing to donate the land inside the shape of the Yellow River to Xixia.

What kind of future is this?

At that time, he really felt that Xixia could come back for another hundred years!

However, now the Song people are fighting back and taking Pingxia City back again, and then there is another serious crisis that will be experienced every ten or eight years.

Frankly speaking, until now, it was not the Song Army's surprise attack that had plunged Li Qianshun into a state of panic... The Song Army's surprise attack was certainly fatal, but the problem was that this fatality came from a purely military surprise attack, from what he himself had done. A tactical misjudgment was made and a hole was exposed. In this case, a Song Army coach who was good at fighting took advantage of the opportunity. It can only be said that his skills were inferior to others.

What really shocked Li Qianshun was the news of the Khitan's violent march along Hexi a few days ago!

At that time, like many ministers, he spent a lot of effort to accept the reality that the Dangxiang people were being attacked by the Han and Khitan people.

At that time, Li Qianshun had a certain degree of consciousness... This time, Dabai Gaoguo really fell into an unprecedented crisis... However, the subsequent crisis developed so quickly and so fatally that it really frightened him.

On the tenth day of April, as soon as the sky dawned, Li Qian got up directly. The Song army, which had been harassed all night, still got up properly. After eating, they continued to move down the river without moving.

Last night the Xixia people changed it to a noise attack, but the Song army responded well. They still wore armor on the outer layer and slept with their ears plugged in the inner layer, and then took turns... and they also took the initiative to launch a surprise attack in the early morning and gained a lot. .

After starting the march, everything went smoothly, but the generals such as Yue Fei, Qu Duan, Liu Qi, etc. were already ready... Without the clear message brought back by Li Shifu's scouts in the bloody scout fight, only the unobstructed view of the plains , even these generals could notice on the small slopes they happened to pass by on the road that the Xixia people had begun to gather large-scale gatherings of Tibetan cavalry and civilians.

The chaos of the scene, the coexistence of young crops and smoke, made it impossible to verify the specific number of cavalry, but there was no doubt that the other party was gathering as many troops as possible in preparation to block the Song army.

Of course, considering the distance, this is a matter of course.

"As long as we can walk forty miles today, we can claim victory in this battle." Qu Duan set up a pavilion with his hands. After taking a look, he turned back and said to Yue Fei. "But if we can do a little damage, then we can attack Xingqing Mansion." It's a lot better...Jiedu, if the party members still attack with light cavalry today, they should allow the cavalry to counterattack farther away!"

Under the early summer wind, Yue Fei's expression did not change, he just nodded slightly and cherished his words like gold: "Okay."

After saying this, the former military commander of the imperial camp came down from the small slope and led his generals to continue moving forward with the army.

At this time, Hu Hongxiu, the Minister of War, who was about to leave, suddenly changed his expression, then reined in his horse and shouted: "Jiedu!"

"What's the matter?" Yue Fei turned around and asked.

"It's the White Bull Banner!" Hu Hongxiu pointed his finger at the Xixia army that was beginning to purge in the distance, and provided a crucial message. "The Xixia King is here!"

The surrounding generals were all shocked, and then rushed to look around. They couldn't hold it back, and straightened up on the iron elephant that was specially put on today... It turned out that the so-called white bull banner was not embroidered with white bulls. The 纛, rather, is a large 纛 decorated with white yak hair on the outer edge. The middle is still embroidered with the word Daxia in Dangxiang Wen. It has always been the symbol of the Xixia Kingdom. Only Li Qianshun, the leader of the Xixia Kingdom, has been suffering from tuberculosis and seven tuberculosis twice since he was young. After the wounded expedition, I don't know if he had a psychological stress reaction, but he rarely went out in person again. Therefore, even those who came from the Western Army of the Song Dynasty had not seen this big banner for many years.

Back in front of me, the white yak hair was really dazzling. When the generals looked at it, there was indeed such a big banner that appeared and disappeared in the distance. It seemed that the Xixia King had arrived in person, but he suddenly became noisy.

Only Yue Fei was slightly startled, and then continued to turn around and head north: "Don't worry about him. Today's vital points are still marching forward."

The personal guards behind him also hurriedly held up the banner of loyalty to the country and headed north.

Under the curve, everyone was in good spirits, and they all moved forward, but they still couldn't help but look at the white bull scroll...

In this way, at noon, the attack finally began. Several groups of unarmored cavalry still arrived first, but it was obviously a test, and with previous experience, these cavalry were simply trying to stop it, while Yue Fei still kept the entire army in the same state as the previous two days.

, still just let the outermost soldiers wear armor, and then replace them in turn, and the whole army continues to move forward steadily.

However, after two rounds of testing, in the afternoon, when the sun set slightly in the west, the Song army could see with the naked eye that countless Xixia cavalry and infantry began to swarm in and appeared in the fields within sight.

Many of the cavalry were obviously wearing some ill-fitting leather armor, and some even had dazzling armored cavalry that appeared in and out of the formation. The so-called infantry were still so-called single bows and spears, no different from ordinary civilians. This was a typical Xixia collision.

The princes (non-Dangxiang cannon fodder troops, mostly Han, but military merit is allowed to be counted) are dressed up, but it is obvious that the majority are from their own Dangxiang... And when the three of them are added together, the number is a bit excessive, and the geography is almost instantly

The young shoots were trampled flat.

Relatively speaking, the Song army's array was obviously somewhat compressed by the air and was slightly deformed, forcing the marching commanders of each unit to give orders for adjustments.

"Jiedu..." Hu Hongxiu was a little panicked. "Should we let the whole army wear armor first?"

"There's no rush." ​​Yue Fei glanced at it and ordered grandly. "Wait for them to come first... The key is not to stop... Once the army stops, they will succeed."

Of course the generals knew this truth, but few responded, and the tension was already very obvious.

At the same time, Liang Wang Weming Anhui, who was wearing a golden crown under the white oxen, also turned to look at the king with a slightly taller golden crown beside him: "There are more than 40 tribes and about 20,000 Qingqi.

Two to three thousand Xingqing armored cavalry, more than a thousand foot soldiers, forty to fifty thousand... forty to fifty thousand bumping into the young master...Does the Lord have any other orders?"

"Yes." Li Qianshun said in a low voice. "These armored cavalry are mostly private soldiers of various noble families in Xingqing Mansion, so they have the money to buy good horses. Their family residence is in Xingqing Mansion City, and they can even dismount to defend the city.

They will definitely work hard, and even if they are defeated, they will go home to Xingqing Mansion. But those more than a thousand steps are mostly armored warriors from the tribe at the foot of Helan Mountain... Once they lose, they will definitely disperse in a hurry.

"

"I understand!" Wei Ming Anhui did not mean to hide it at all. "This battle will naturally require everyone to fight hard, but they must also be prioritized. If Young Master Chuang can succeed slightly, then Ba Zi can follow Young Master Chuang and jump in first.

fighting!"

Li Qianshun nodded slightly, and the next moment, Weiming Anhui jumped out of the horse and waved his hands. The flags everywhere were waving, and the drums were rumbling. However, there were armored cavalry who came out first to supervise the battle.

The difference between the previous two days is that this time, an astonishing number of young men came out first!

These young men were shouting and shouting strangely. Some were bare-headed, some barely wore a tattered felt hat, and most of them only had an out-of-place tattered coat. However, they swarmed forward with bows in hand, launching a tidal wave towards the Song army.

The attack is usually one shot, then the spear is raised, and the enemy charges and fights hand-to-hand.

Correspondingly speaking, as early as when the Young Masters were shooting arrows, crossbow arrows were already flying in the Song Army formation, causing countless casualties to the Young Masters. However, with the blessing of numbers, these unarmored party members still went forward one after another.

They swarmed in front of the Song Army's formation and connected with the Song Army's infantry formation... I have to admit that this was the first time that the Song Army's infantry had come into contact with the opponent on a large scale since entering the hinterland of Xingling.

"The entire army is wearing armor!"

Looking at the dense crowd of soldiers, Yue Fei, who kept marching under the banner, finally gave the order, but at the same time he did not forget to continue to emphasize. "Slow down the civilians, slow down the armored cavalry, and the whole army must continue to move forward no matter how slow it is!"

On one side, Hu Hongxiu was silent. Even the whole army was shocked by the momentum of Dang Xiang's attack on the princes, but none of the senior officers raised any objections.

This is because anyone with some military experience, especially those with military experience in the Western Army, understands that the so-called "King Gongzi" army, whether it is made by Han people or Party members, is essentially cannon fodder and consumables.

Generally speaking, there are only three functions. One is to bet that this wave of charge can shake the formation and force the opponent to mobilize, forming a flaw; the other is to actively find the flaw in the opponent's formation through this large-scale contact; and finally

Needless to say, everyone knows that it is used to waste arrows and dull swords.

No matter how sharp the knife is, it can't cut a person's bones a few times, and if the arrow penetrates the flesh, don't even think about using it again.

In the face of this kind of offensive from this kind of army, the first thing is to stabilize the formation and not be mobilized by them. Once they stabilize and persist, these people themselves will suddenly collapse due to casualties.

However, I don’t know if it’s because the Xixia ruler is behind, or if there are too many of them, but this wave of young masters seems to be particularly resistant to fighting.

Although the Song army's well-proportioned array formed concave formations in various places, and relied on military discipline, armor, equipment, and formations to cause a lot of damage, these party members still bumped into the crossbow array.

Fortunately, even the peripheral crossbowmen were wearing armor, so the crossbow array did not suffer too many casualties. However, there is no doubt that this greatly reduced the killing efficiency of the Song army, and seriously hindered the Song army in the rear from wearing armor.

The speed directly affected the advance of the military formation.

Looking at this situation, I don't know if I felt that I had glimpsed a possibility. Within my field of vision, there were already a small number of Xixia warriors preparing to break into the military formation under the cover of these young masters.

"Let the sword and shield holders hold the armor and retreat from the gun formation to attack." Yue Fei looked at the densely packed party cannon fodder soldiers and finally frowned. "But you are not allowed to go out to pursue! You can only clear the surrounding area for the crossbowmen to prevent the Xixia people from entering the formation!

The big banner follows me. No matter how slow we go, we must move forward step by step."

When the military order was passed, some of the sword and shield men who had already responded to the current situation immediately attacked... These soldiers with armor and sharp blades faced these unarmored and spear-wielding but chaotic Xixia infantry in a dense formation.

It's massacre.

It is conceivable that as more and more armored sword and shield men attack, the offensive of the Princes will eventually collapse, and the Song army's marching speed will quickly recover, but before that, the bloody massacre will not stop... In fact,

Even the gangsters of the Dangxiang tribe were blinded by the killing and lost their minds for a moment... While the sword and shield fighters were attacking, small groups of Dangxiang infantrymen everywhere seized the gaps in the formation and successfully crossed over.

The defense line poured into the military formation, but what greeted them inside were dense Song armored cavalry, Fan cavalry, as well as lances and cavalry bows.

If they rush in, their hope of survival is almost zero, but they still swarm in.

However, in the melee, anything can happen, especially if the base is large, miracles are bound to come.

It must have been that the armored cavalry had been ordered to huddle in the formation for several days. At this time, they couldn't help but feel a little excited. Therefore, facing an influx of party members, the armored cavalry actually asked a tall and tall man to wear a felt hat.

The short party members miraculously crossed the defense line.

This man's body was covered in someone's blood, and he kept waving his spear as he fought hard towards the moving four-character flag. He bared his teeth and claws, and screamed strangely, as if he was crazy.

However, considering this person's equipment and figure, it is more funny than scary.

Yue Fei didn't need to say anything. Yue Fei didn't even look at this person at all. He didn't need Qu Duan to say anything. A prepared general with several cavalry came up to him, ready to kill him with one shot.

Then a miracle happened again. When the highly skilled and battle-hardened imperial cavalryman was about to approach him and stab him with a spear, his instinct froze, and then he allowed the short party member to escape from his gun, and continued

He rushed directly under Yue Fei's commander-in-chief's flag.

He was about to wake up and catch up immediately, but Qu Duan was already furious. He actually pulled down his mask and rode the Iron Elephant himself... Moreover, the Iron Elephant is a famous horseman in the world, and Qu Duan has been in the army for twenty years.

Although even Wu Jie couldn't defeat him, he couldn't stand up to the fact that he was strong enough. Therefore, he was condescending with his heavy armor and spear, and the iron-faced mythical beast, majestic. Facing the short party leader, he was like a ghost or an ant... In fact, that

The man came towards me and was completely panicked when he saw it, but he finally regained his consciousness, then turned around and ran away hastily.

But how could there still be a chance?

The general was going to shoot him in front of him and stab him to death easily, then dismount his horse and behead him, throw down his ragged felt hat and bow before the iron elephant, confessing his guilt.

However, Qu Duan looked at the head and was stunned for a moment, but he did not pursue the subordinate's mistake at all, but turned the horse's head without saying a word and returned to the Chinese army's banner, which was still moving slowly.

"Why not enforce military discipline?"

Yue Fei frowned and said, "It's just a warning."

"It's excusable." Qu Duan put down his mask and looked solemn. "She is a Party woman, an old woman, her hair is all white..."

Yue Fei was finally stunned, then reined in his horse and took a serious look at the white-haired head. At the same time, the banner behind him that served the country with loyalty finally stopped.

This is the first time that the Song Army coach's banner has stopped since he saw the white-haired banner today.

However, there was a pause, and after a while, Dahu continued to head north.

Not only that, as the Song army stabilized its formation, the infantry was deployed across a large area, and killings continued everywhere. After tens of thousands of party members left thousands of corpses behind, it was still as everyone who knew the army imagined.

, suddenly dispersed.

Xiang Fanqi, the peripheral party member, could only barely hold half of the people in front of him, and the rest didn't bother to stop them at all.

Of course, the Song army, which strictly observed military discipline, did not chase them out. Under the supervision of their respective marching commanders, they immediately adjusted their formations, restored their previous marching formation, and continued northward.

"Uncle Emperor." Seeing that the Song army not only did not chase them out, but continued to move forward. After the rogue soldiers were routed all over the mountains and plains, Li Qianshun was obviously so angry that he changed his title on the spot. "Have you ever seen any flaws in the Song army?"

?Make sure to make them stop!"

"I don't know if there is a flaw, but it must be the weakest point of the Song Army!" Weiming Anhui grasped the reins of the horse and turned to face each other seriously. "Put it away, Young Master, and go all in this time. I will lead it myself." Let’s go to that place.”

"I will lend the white cow paper to Shangfu!" Li Qianshun heard this without any hesitation. "I will leave it to Shangfu for today's affairs!"

The white-haired Weiming Anhui nodded, and without saying a word, he reined in his horse and moved forward. The armored cavalry officers and tribal leaders who could hear clearly all around followed him one after another, and dozens of golden armored warriors also guarded the white ox scarf. Then go.

Looking at King Liang who was leaving in the distance, Li Qianshun, who was standing on his horse in the green fields, gradually felt hot... At the same time, the Song army also saw the Xixia army and horses readjusting, but it was not surprising, because yesterday the soldiers who accompanied the army replaced the officers. They have conveyed this to every soldier, and everyone knows that the Xixia people will definitely try their best to stop them, but at the moment, they are just smashing out to hit the prince.

Therefore, today's war, in a sense, has just begun.
