This was the case when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty built Shuofang City south of Yinshan Mountain, and the cost was too high.

The reason why later generations want to develop urban agglomerations is to use the cluster effect to greatly reduce urban operating costs, make the cooperation of various industries more convenient, and produce higher efficiency.

This is actually the reason why the Song Dynasty centered on Gyeonggi Road and opened up a dense river network to the surrounding areas.

Xixia's geographical location is special, they cannot lose Hengshan.

Everyone seems to have found a way to check and balance the Song Army.

Shu Wang Li Renli said: "Your Majesty has deployed heavy troops in Hengshan. It is absolutely impossible for the Song army to break through the defense line of Hengshan! As long as Hengshan is in our hands, the Song army will not be able to threaten us."

It's nothing more than the original plan to go south to attack the Song Dynasty, why not go south!

I don't believe that your Song army can keep the army stationed at the border?

Can your food consumption afford that?

Li Qianshun hurriedly wrote a letter to An Hui, the Wei name who presided over the military administration in Youzhou, asking him not to move around for the time being.

At this critical moment, the Shizhou Xia Army, a hundred miles west of Yinzhou, received the Yinzhou beacon and marched eastward to support Yinzhou, but was attacked by the Song Army who had ambushed in advance in the valley and retreated.

Yinzhou is firmly in the hands of Song Jun.

This is why Liu Kai's attack on Yinzhou was a storm.

The news of the sudden war in Yinzhou was urgently sent to Youzhou.

How important is Yinzhou?

It is the east gate of the Xixia Hengshan defense line. Once Yinzhou is broken, the Song army can build a city wall in Yinzhou and connect Suide with Yinzhou through Mizhi Village.

Such a situation is like stabbing a knife in the most important position of Xixia. If the knife is cut horizontally, half of Xixia's body can be cut away, and he can only become a disabled person in the future.

On March 23, Anhui, who was named Wei in Youzhou, received an urgent order from Li Qianshun of Xingqing Prefecture to stop his southward travel first.

And the news of Li Liangfu's defeat was also secretly passed on to the Wei name An Hui.

After reading it, the face of Wei Anhui was drawn like a bitter melon that had been soaked in bitter water for three days and three nights.

Li Liangfu's army was defeated so quickly, he never expected it.

As early as a few days ago, Wei Ming Anhui had sent all the troops to Hongzhou. At this time, Xixia had 20 troops stationed in Hongzhou, only a mountain away from the border between Song and Xia, and could enter the territory of Song and Shaanxi at any time.

Just at this time, it was reported that Li Liangfu was defeated, and Li Qianshun called to stop going south.

Li Qianshun said that he would give Anhui a hundred courage, and he would not dare to continue going south.

In the early morning of March 24th, the Hongzhou army, which was only tens of miles away from Youzhou, received the latest instruction from Wei Ming Anhui to temporarily station in Hongzhou, pending follow-up arrangements.

This feeling is very uncomfortable: I am about to get out, but you say to stop first?

Weiming Anhui, who was tossing and turning in Yuzhou, couldn't figure it out. She was on the string, but stuck in her neck.

Naturally, he didn't have any worries when he was named An Hui. After Xi Xia was abolished, he could still go to the Kingdom of Jin to be an official.

But Li Qianshun was different. Li Qianshun had no way out. At the most critical moment, he had to weigh the pros and cons. If his teeth were broken, he had to swallow it.

Wei Ming An Hui hurriedly wrote a letter to Jin Guo.

Wei's name is An Hui: With the current situation of Song Xia, Song Qi's three-party check and balance, as long as Jin Guo immediately sends troops to the south, and puts another army into the whole game, at this time Liu Yu will fight Hebei, and I will fight in Shaanxi. All you need to do is to send troops from Taiyuan to Hedong and attack Luoyang, and the Song Dynasty will collapse across the board in a short period of time!

He even had a triumphant smile on his face when he finished writing the letter.

What a fucking genius I am!quack quack!

"Report! Prime Minister, something is wrong! Something is wrong!"

The Wei name An Hui who had just finished writing the letter was still immersed in the imagination of destroying the Song Dynasty, when a voice came from outside.

He said impatiently, "What's all the fuss about?"

His confidant Yeli Songren ran in quickly: "The latest news from Hebei!"

"Oh?" Wei Ming An Hui was slightly taken aback, and news finally came from Hebei.

"Liu Yu's entire army was wiped out in Hebei!"

"What!" Wei Ming An Hui's jaw almost fell to the ground, he lifted the collar of Yeli Songren, his eyes widened and he said angrily, "Say it again!"

"Here, the military newspaper is here!"

Yeli Songren quickly presented it to him. After reading it, he was shocked: "This is impossible! How could Liu Yu lose so quickly!"

Wei Ming Anhui took a deep breath, and said angrily: "Go! Send the letter out quickly, give Shangjing a chance, and make sure the Kingdom of Jin sends troops! Definitely send troops!"

As long as the Kingdom of Jin sends troops in person, the situation will definitely crush the Song Dynasty!

Wei Ming Anhui gritted her teeth in anger.

right!Sure!

He had just finished speaking when another urgent voice came from outside: "Report! Prime Minister! Something is wrong! Something is wrong!"

What the hell is going on!

You feel that my heart is not beating fast enough every day, right?

A messenger quickly came in, knelt down and said: "Prime Minister, there is an urgent military report from Shizhou!"

Wei Ming Anhui took it impatiently, and quickly glanced at it.

With this sweep, the whole person jumped up: Song Jun conquered Yinzhou!

If it is said that Liu Yu's failure enabled the Song Dynasty to concentrate on dealing with the situation in the northwest and relieved the pressure on the Song Dynasty, then the fall of Yinzhou completely reversed the situation in the Song and Xia Dynasties.

From attacking one side, Xixia became immobile for a short time.

but now?

Xixia is no longer a matter of standing still.

It's self-protection!

In the battle of Yongle City back then, why did Xixia go away with all its strength?

It is because the Song army built a city near Yinzhou.

Yinzhou is the defense line of Hengshan. Once the defense line of Hengshan is broken, the battle line will be pushed directly to the hinterland of Hengshan.

If Hengshan is lost, Xixia will be in danger!

Chapter 381 Urgent Reinforcement of Yinzhou! (first update)

Even a pig named Anhui would know how important Yinzhou is.

The main force of Xixia is now concentrated in Hongzhou. The goal is to kill the security forces of the Song Dynasty and directly attack the Yan'an Mansion on Yanyan Road.

A small number of troops are stationed in Youzhou, Longzhou and Shizhou on the Hengshan defense line.

This is embarrassing, as long as his Wei name An Hui dares to go south, he will immediately and completely expose the movements of the Xixia army.

The Hongshan defense line is empty, what will happen to the Song Army in Yinzhou?

It's nothing to do, just beat all the state capitals lying prone in the hinterland of Hengshan, such as Shizhou, Longzhou, Youzhou, Hongzhou, and Yanzhou.

Even if the Song Dynasty can't get a large number of soldiers and civilians to effectively occupy these places in a short period of time, at least it can cut off the back of the main Xixia army that has penetrated into the Song Dynasty, right?

What would be the consequences of a Xixia army hanging alone surrounded by the Song Dynasty Western Army?

Such a battle situation, any coach of Xixia would not dare to imagine.

There is a high probability that the entire army may be wiped out.

Once the entire elite army assembled in Hengshan was wiped out, Hengshan's military force was almost exhausted, and Song Dynasty would be sorry for the good intentions of the Xixia people if they didn't take Hengshan over.

Wei Ming Anhui would never dare to do that.

Don't say that Li Qianshun will cut him alive and hand over Hengshan to Song Dynasty, so that Song Dynasty can completely eliminate the threat of Xixia. I am afraid that the Jin people will hang him up and beat him a hundred times.

Wei Ming Anhui could only feel cold sweat on the back of his palms.

The strangeness of this situation made him shudder.

Fortunately, the army was still in Hongzhou and did not start a war with the Song army.

"Quick! Quick! Call back the Hongzhou army! Quick!" Wei Ming Anhui almost roared out.

For this decision, he didn't even ask Li Ganshun for instructions first.

Because judging from the current situation, there is no need to ask for instructions.

The result of asking for instructions was exactly the same, and it would even delay time, but Li Qianshun scolded him severely.

As long as any state capital on the Hengshan line of defense is breached by the Song army, Xixia will go away with all its strength.

Just like if any of the three towns in the north of the Great Song Dynasty was captured by Khitan or the Kingdom of Jin, the Great Song Dynasty would go away with all its strength.

Because that is the lifeblood of national defense.

Once the battle situation reaches that point, it is no longer a question of the two sides fighting a war of attrition, but that one side may be wiped out.

On the evening of the day when Wei Ming Anhui received the news, the news that Li Yanxian overturned his reasoning and chased and killed Xia Jun to the desert reached Xingqing Mansion.

Li Qianshun's reaction was this: "The three thousand elites transferred from the Jingsai Army Commander took back Lanzhou, which would block the Song Army's way back!"

Ren Dejing's reaction was this: "Your Majesty is wise and mighty. Song Jun is just a clown. In front of my Daxia soldiers, he tried to pretend to be a chariot, dying and struggling, beyond his control!"

Shu Wang Li Renli also said: "The Song army became proud and complacent after winning a battle. The Song general thought he was Liu Fa!"

At this time, a voice came from outside: "Report! Emergency military report from Shizhou!"

"Come in!"

When Li Qianshun received the Shizhou military report, he petrified on the spot.

Brother Li Cha asked: "Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

"Quick! Quick! Quick! Let the prime minister call back all the troops, and the whole army will go east to Yinzhou! Quick!"

Everyone looked at each other in disbelief.

Li Qianshun is a gentle person, but at this moment he is like an angry lion, roaring: "Quick!"

The fall of Yinzhou undoubtedly caused a mountain torrent and tsunami in the Xixia Dynasty.

On the evening of March 24, that is, the day when Weiming Anhui and Li Qianshun received the fall of Yinzhou respectively, Jingzhao Chang'an's General System Department also received urgent news from Liu Qi.

Zhang Jun was so excited that his hands were shaking, he hurriedly ordered someone to send the news back to Tokyo to inform His Majesty the Emperor.

However, at this time, the General System Department was once again caught in controversy.

Looking at the overall situation, the army led by Wang Shu is currently stationed in Huanzhou, Dingbian Army and Security Army, and is preparing to arrive at the Xixia army heading south from Hongzhou.

But the situation has changed, and the Xixia people will inevitably move their entire army to Yinzhou.

So what to do with Wang Shu's soldiers and horses?

Should we continue to stay in the Dingbian army and wait for the Xixia army to withdraw from Hongzhou, and take the opportunity to attack Hongzhou?

Or go east immediately to support Liu Kai and defend Yinzhou?

If you take the opportunity to attack Hongzhou and Yanzhou, can you win?

The mountains to the south of Hongzhou are criss-crossed, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If they can't be defeated, the great troops will be wasted here. What should we do if Xixia concentrates its forces to take back Yinzhou?

However, if the army goes to support Yinzhou, it needs to mobilize an army of 10,000+ to move eastward, and it needs to increase a lot of food.

Food is money, which means increased military spending.

Shaanxi is currently filling the vacancy of the previous pension, and military expenditure is in the red.

This is the point of contention.

This is often the reason why decisions are difficult to make.

In the end, Zhang Jun fought against the crowd and gave Wang Shu an order to move eastward quickly to support Liu Kai.

As the envoy of Yanyan Road, Liu Kai can naturally mobilize soldiers and civilians directly to Yanyan Road, but the current number of soldiers and civilians on Yanyan Road obviously cannot meet the needs of Yinzhou.

So this matter can only be ordered by Zhang Jun himself to go to Jingyuan Road.

On the night of the same day, the General System Department issued the highest mobilization order, urgently mobilizing 20 soldiers and civilians to advance eastward to Yanyan Road, immediately enter Mizhizhai from Suide, and then enter Yinzhou, Hengshan. Everything is under Liu Qi's dispatch.

These are precedents.

After Shenzong Chao Zhonger took down the Hengshan defense line, Xu Xi built Yongle City, and Xixia came here with all its strength.

Before the arrival of Xixia, many scouts of the Song army frequently reported to Xu Xi that the Xixia army was coming, but Xu Xi did not believe it.
