Li Qing rushed to Tongwei Fort angrily, looked at the broken walls, and his eyes showed fierce light.

Wang Yuan's heroic sacrifice not only fought against more than a thousand of his subordinates, but also attacked Jichuan Village and defeated the Song army at night. The morale he had finally accumulated was also defeated.

Li Qing angrily asked the soldiers to clean the battlefield, clean up the broken tiles, and support the Gangu City. However, this time he was not easy to succeed. Zhang Feng also happened to arrive in Gangu City. After hearing the news of Tongwei Fort, he repeatedly told Zhang Shouyi not to go to war, and the military law department would be responsible for the violation.

Moreover, at this time, Gangu City gradually reached its position. Yang Wenguang attached great importance to the geographical location of Gangu City at that time, so Gangu City was built very strongly. Li Qing could not attack several times, so he started to make a fool of himself again, attacking Gangu City while splitting his troops to attack Liugou Fort.

But once again, I hit a nail.

He arrived in front of Liugou Castle and met another Song general, Liu Changzuo, behind him.

At this time, there were two or half of the commanders in the Song Dynasty, one was Wang Shao, the other was Zhang Shi, and half of the commanders was Guo Kui. However, a group of brave generals also emerged in the army, such as Zong Yan, Zong Yi, Miao Su, Guo Cheng, Wang Junwan, Wang Guangzu, Zhang Yu, Yan Da, and Zhe Jimin's son Zhe Kexing. The most capable son of Zhe Kexing is not counted. He and Wang Hou, Zong Pu, and Yao Xiong, the son of Yao Yi, have not yet grown up, and there is Liu Changzuo.

These ten powerful generals are no less than Gui Zhang and Li Qing. Even Yang Wenguang, Zong Gu, Zhang Shouyi, Yang Sui, and Hebin are slightly inferior. Even among these ten generals, Liu Changzuo is the best, and even Li Qing cannot compare with him.

Li Qing's army arrived at Liugou Fort and met Liu Changzuo's army. Although Liu Changzuo had few troops, Li Qing was beaten up by Liu Changzuo, leaving nearly a thousand corpses, and fled back in a dizzy way. This battle finally made Li Qing clearly position it. The Song army should not be underestimated. Moreover, he was not interested in the Liang family. He was indifferent. So he stationed the army outside Gangu City to watch the other two routes.

Liang Yongneng also came to the city of Xizhou.

Jiehebao did not encounter the difficulties of Wang Yuan. Mu Zheng's two sons Zhao Huaiyi, Zhao Bingyi returned to Xihe, Zhao Huaiyi went to Hezhou, and Zhao Bingyi came to Xizhou. Although Liang Yongneng had as many as 40,000 troops under his command, nearly half of them came from the Agan City, Kangu and Maxian Mountain. If Mu Zheng and his son went to the capital of the Song Dynasty and Zhao Xu issued an order to block Mu Zheng's family, then the foreigners in Kangu would be anxious.

The Song Dynasty did not do this, on the contrary, treated Muzheng very well. Most of the tribes in Kangu were blind and old subordinates of Muzheng. In the past, Zheng Lang went to Kangu to hold a large alliance meeting and treated these tribes very well. The time has not been very long. Except for a few young people, most middle-aged people still remember it freshly. Therefore, although there are many troops, their morale has always been low. The most fatal thing is Liang Yongneng's military command ability.

After Liu Shaoneng easily resisted the attack for ten days, he calmly retreated his subordinates. Liang Yongneng then sent troops to chase after him, but he was beaten up by Liu Shaoneng in Jiehechuan. After killing nearly a thousand Xixia people, he retreated to Beiguan Fort in a swagger.

Liang Yongneng was furious. After killing more than a dozen Tubo generals in a row, his morale was slightly boosted and he led his army to cross the rivers and arrived at Beiguan Fort. However, the Tubo people in the army became even more resentful.

After a few days of attack, Liu Shao was able to retreat to Xizhou City. In fact, if it were not for strategic needs, Liang Yongneng might not be able to conquer Beiguan Fort.

But at least, the Song army looked shaky and dying on all sides.

The Eastern Route Army of the Song Dynasty was in a tight position, but the Western Route Army continued to maintain a great victory.

When he arrived at Wachu Village, all the powerful bows, crossbows, artillery and catapults in General Wang Shao gathered together and fired into the village without any chance to attack a small Wachu Village. This kind of fighting seemed too wasteful. However, Wang Shao mainly wanted to establish his authority and could not attack every time he arrived in a city. After arriving in Guzhou, the Song army could not withstand the consumption of casualties. Therefore, he used Wachu Village to kill the chicken and monkey.

After a long bombing, some people in the city wanted to surrender and some wanted to resist, but the defenders on the top of the city were scared and even all the people at the north gate fled to the south of the village. The Song army easily attacked the city and seized the gate. However, Wang Shao did not order the Song army to rush to the south gate immediately, but asked these heavy firepower to continue to be transferred to the camp and bomb the south gate. Some people wanted to surrender, but Wang Shao did not agree, because there were still people to resist, so Wang Shao could not believe it. In the evening, under the pressure of the Song army's firepower, the people and some soldiers in the village actually took up weapons and took the initiative to kill the soldiers who were still resisting for the Song army. Until no one in the south resisted, Wang Shao ordered the stop of the bombing.

At this time, countless people and soldiers in the village were killed and injured, and rubble was everywhere.

The Song army stopped for a while, leaving some soldiers to garrison, and the army rushed to Qiudang City again. Because of its fast speed, Qiudang City had not heard about what happened in Wachu Village, so the same trick repeated, blasting Qiudang City into rubble again, and the army crossed the Yellow River and rushed towards Dangbiao City.

Faced with the fierceness of the Song army, the Biaocheng tribes surrendered the city. The army continued to go west and along the Yellow River to reach Nancheng. Danancheng once again surrendered the city. According to the original plan, Wang Shao was going to attack Yegongcheng from Danancheng, but Zheng Lang revised the plan. Wang Shao gave up Yegongcheng and the Dong tribe, crossed the Yellow River again, took down Michuan City, and came to Guzhou.

Wang Shao met Xibawen outside Guzhou City.

Originally, Wang Shao sent an envoy to persuade Xibawen. Gu Miaochuan's victory. Xibawen went from watching to being moved, but he still wanted to take it. Then Zheng Lang's order came to Wang Shao's hands. Wang Shao asked the envoy to return, and the Song army launched an attack on Henan at the same time. The momentum was unstoppable, and Xibawen was stunned.

Therefore, he came to the city of Guzhou in person.

Wang Shao said lightly: "Chi Head, before the Battle of Gu Miaochuan started, you surrender to our dynasty is the icing on the cake. Now you surrender to nothing."

An understatement.

If it were before the Gu Miaochuan Battle, Xibawen might think that he would help him in time, but after the trump card was revealed, it would be barely considered icing on the cake. Or if the original Wang Shao military plan was maintained, Xibawen could still be considered icing on the cake. However, after the military plan was revised, it would be true that whether Xibawen surrendered or not.

Xibawen couldn't answer in embarrassment.

"What is the difference between your Xi tribe and the Mubo tribe now (the Mubo tribe is located south of the Dong family, and the Jishi Army is connected to Taozhou, which is also a famous tribe in Henan)? On the contrary, at this point, I value the Mubo tribe more (referring to the Mubo tribe and the Han people living in a mixed place, and it is highly Chinese and easy to manage)." Wang Shao said this and said, "But the big leader came to surrender to the court. I still welcome it."

Xibawen didn’t need this answer, Wang Shao said lightly, but there were not too many tribes who surrendered to the Song Dynasty. Since Wachuzhai and Qiudang City blasted into rubble, the tribes on both sides of the river surrendered. What is the significance of this surrender? Xibawen wants the right to speak!

He looked at Wang Shao pitifully regardless of his face.

Wang Shao didn't speak, looked at the map with his eyes, staring at the location of the Dong tribe on the map without blinking.

Don't you understand yet?

After the Song army captured Da Nancheng, he did not even attack Ye Gongcheng, and then attacked Henan. Why did he stare at the Dong tribe?

Moreover, with the current power of the Xi tribe, if the Song army receives some cooperation, the Xi tribe will have the ability to fight with the Dong family. After fighting with the Dong family, Xibawen will have no room for maneuver with Dong Wen, and can only follow the Song Dynasty obediently, and the Song Dynasty will also be assured to grant the Xi tribe the right to speak.

Wang Shao said again: "Big leader, don't worry, there is still time to consider."

Then I made a gesture to send guests off.

Xibawen could only leave the camp with grief and anger. It was either the Song people who were unreasonable, but they sent troops to Dong. It was the Song Dynasty who helped each other and fought with each other. What strength do they have? Without the strength, even if they return to Xige City, they still have any dominance.

At this time, he felt extremely emotional about a Han saying that the time should not be missed, and that one should not be missed again.

In fact, he missed another opportunity. If he really sent troops to Dong immediately, Wang Shao would not only send troops to help, but also provide heavy troops to help. After all, he could still use 30,000 troops under his tent at this time. Before he could go deep into Henan, he could withdraw some of his troops in time. After Wang Shao defeated Qingzhuang's troops and took down Xige City, even if Xibawen sent troops, it would not be so popular. Of course, Xibawen still had concerns, whether the Song Dynasty could survive the difficulties of Xixia.

Wang Shao's army was under the city of Guzhou, which was far away from Hezhou.

This allowed Liang Yong to see an opportunity.

The Song Dynasty gave up Jiehe Fort, Beiguan Fort, Yaerxia Village and Tongwei Fort, and even watched Li Qing invade Jichuan Village, but the limited troops finally concentrated at several points. Xizhou's troops were not large, but they were all concentrated. In addition, the walls of Xizhou were tall, and Liang Yongneng failed to attack several times. On the contrary, Yang Sui and Liu Shaoneng took the initiative to lead the army to attack, causing a large amount of damage to the Xixia army. So Liang Yongneng stared at Hezhou City.

This is also his initiative to modify the original plan.

Before sending troops, the Xixia's combat policy was not to alarm the Song army that attacked the west, and Wang Shao's reputation also scared the people of Xixia. He watched Wang Shao's army fight with the Tubo people, and Xixia was determined to attack Xizhou and ancient Weicheng, and reap the benefits of the fisherman.

However, Xizhou was too difficult to attack. Seeing the heavy sacrifice, Liang Yongneng looked at Hezhou. The Song army was trapped in Guzhou, and Hezhou did not have many troops. He also sent people to inquire about almost all the sharp weapons in Hezhou City, including artillery, and Wang Shao was brought to the front line. He had another favorable condition, and he went straight to Baicheng or Hezhou from Jiehebao.

The purpose of attacking Hezhou was to surround the points and attack aid. Wang Shao's army could not return. Once it returned, it would inevitably be counterattacked by the Tubo people. In order to save Hezhou, the Song Dynasty could only divide troops from Xizhou or Xiangzi City. That was, the surrounding point and attack aid failed, and the troops in Xizhou were divided into Xizhou. The east could attack Tonggu Fort, and his own army could join with the main force. This convergence was of great significance. After the entire Longxi Road was opened, the Xixia people could go south at any time, and even joined forces with various tribes that were disgusted with the Song Dynasty entering, forcing the main force of the Song army to go out of the city to fight.

As long as the Song army loses the advantage of the city wall, facing the huge military force of Xixia, the entire army will be destroyed. It turns out that he thinks very well, even if the Song army takes the initiative to go out of the city to fight, the people of Xixia may not be able to win. However, the Song army will suffer a heavy sacrifice, and Zheng Lang doesn't want to.

Liang Yong could not help but feel great when he thought of the wonderful things.

Anyway, he has enough troops in his hands, and it has no use to slap Xizhou with more troops, but it is more than enough to divide the troops.

He called his clan brother Liang Gewei and asked him to lead 10,000 troops out of Jiehebao and rushed towards Hezhou with great fanfare.

In fact, there was another general in Hezhou. In the face of the attack of the Xixia people, Wang Shao was not relieved, so he asked the veteran He Bin to return to Hezhou and personally take charge of the safety of Hezhou. Miaochuan argued with the Wen people, and many people didn't care. Most of them believed that He Bin deliberately caused the morale of the Wen army to be depressed, so he won. Moreover, there were also brave generals in the city, Guo Cheng and Miao Zuo went to fight to join. Even now, because of He Bin's steady and low-keyness, the Wen people were not convinced. It can only be said that this was an honest and good Song general, but he did not recognize his military talent.

This is even more true for Liang Yongneng.

More than just!

Hebin is a steady person and trusts the people, but he is not a weak general. Hebin performed the same iron-blooded performance in the Kunlun Pass victory.

Hearing the arrival of the Xixia people, Hebin just sneered, then made some arrangements, prepared some special equipment, and secretly asked the soldiers garrisoned in the fortresses such as Tabai City, Nanchuan Village and Anxiangguan to take out some of them, disguised as civilians and sneaked into Hezhou City. Liang Gewei didn't know how to investigate, and thought that Hezhou had few troops, so he burned, killed, plundered and set off towards Hezhou. Just when he was about to arrive in Hezhou, Hebin asked the soldiers to destroy the wooden bridge of Daxia River.

This doesn't matter, there are rafts and Huntuo (after slaughtering cattle, horses and sheep, take out all the meat, bones, livers and food, then seal them, blow them when crossing the river, and the simple river crossing tools unique to Xixia). Ten thousand Xixia people had a lot of troops in Hezhou City at this time, and they were full of pressure from Hebin, but they could only squeeze out two thousand Song troops.

The Xixia people began to cross the river.

Some soldiers in Xixia crossed the Daxia River later.

At this time, He Bin led the ambush out and fiercely repelled the Xixia people to the riverside. Then all the soldiers raised their bows and arrows and fired rockets. They even prepared some of the turbulent oil used to defend in the city and threw it on Huntuo or rafts. The turbulent oil was not in trouble, but there were rockets behind them, and even Song Bing used the divine arm bow to shoot rockets.

After a while, a bunch of fire rose on the river surface. Before it was finished, someone lifted the disguise from the upstream, revealing giant ships. It was not too big. The largest was only a dozen tons, and the smallest was only a few tons, but it was enough to deal with the rafts of the Xixia people. Moreover, the Xixia burned, killed and plundered all the way, which made many local people disgusted, and many fishermen spontaneously cooperated with the Song army.

During this rush, all the Xixia soldiers in the river and those who crossed the other shore were either shot dead or rushed into the Daxia River by giant ships. The morale was not high, and the rest surrendered. But it was not over yet. The ships were bent on the shore, and Hebin left a few soldiers to guard the prisoners of war, and the rest stepped onto the ship and sailed towards the other shore.
Chapter completed!
