Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

If the enemy can master the terrain proficiently, it basically occupies two-thirds of the active position.

"What about Fan Qing, tell me."

"I think so too."

Zhao Ning's eyes fell on the map, he thought for a while, and then said: "If it is true as you said, we just need to set off camp now as Sun Fu said, and use a large number of scouts to scout around during the day With the strength of Xixia troops, our main force quickly advances to Jingzhou, and the encirclement of Jingzhou can solve the problem.”

When everyone heard this, if this was the case, the next step was to go in the direction of Sun Futi.

Sun Fu mentioned it?

That must be problematic.

Zhao Ning continued: "What we can think of now, brother Li Cha can't think of it?"

After Zhao Guanjia said this, everyone realized it.

After all, Brother Li Cha is also a famous general of Xixia. He has presided over Xixia's military affairs for decades, and some battles are not so simple.

"Brother Li Cha thinks that we will think so. If we want to move quickly to Jingzhou, once we move, Brother Li Cha will also move."

This is another game in which whoever moves first will be passive.

Because the two sides are too close, and each has a huge legion.

The movement of a huge army is completely different from the movement of a small army that is lightly equipped.

Just think about it, if an army that stretches for several miles, or even ten miles, is found to be moving by an enemy who is very close, what will the enemy do?

Chen Gui said: "Then we don't move, continue to besiege Lingzhou, and send a cavalry to harass the Xixia people."

"This proposal is very reasonable. I was wondering, did brother Li Cha think of it too?"

Liu Kai said: "There is a possibility, we try not to underestimate the enemy."

Zhao Ning continued to ask: "Then what countermeasures will he have?"

Now everyone was silent again.

Zhao Guanjia can always ask the most tricky questions, leaving people speechless.

"What countermeasures will he have? Let's try it. Liu Qi, you send an elite cavalry out to explore the way."

"Yes!"

After breakfast, Liu Rui left the camp with two thousand cavalry.

According to the current news from various scouts, no trace of the Xixia army has been found near Lingzhou City.

At noon, Brother Li Cha's scouts returned to Jingzhou and informed Brother Li Cha of the dispatch of the Song Army's cavalry.

Brother Li Cha said: "Very well, the main force of Zhao Guan's family and Zhang Jun are stationed in Lingzhou steadily, trying to put Lingzhou to death, to put psychological pressure on the king, so that I can take the lead first."

Li Renyi said: "The general, please take an elite group to learn from this Song army!"

"No, don't worry, now is not the time to send out iron kites." Brother Li Cha said, "Mu Rong, take two thousand cavalry to meet the Song army. Remember, don't fight. If the Song army increases troops, you will retreat!"

"Yes!"

Mu Rong led the cavalry and left Jingzhou City.

The two sides met in the snowy field in the afternoon, and after a brief exchange of hands, the Xixia people retreated, and the Song army did not continue to chase.

In the evening, the news reached Zhao Ning.

"Brother Li Cha's cavalry has been dispatched, but his main force has not moved. There may be another attack on the battalion tonight."

Sure enough, as Zhao Ning expected, the Xixia people came again tonight, just like yesterday's routine, they left after a few waves.

And tonight not only the North City Gate, but also Xixia cavalry appeared at the West City Gate.

It didn't hurt much, but at night, Song Jun had to raise his spirits to deal with it.

Like yesterday, the Xixia cavalry withdrew quickly.

"Withdrawing again?" Zhao Ning smiled, "Brother Li Cha really wants to tire us out in this way?"

After being silent for a moment, Sun Fu suddenly said: "Your Majesty, is it possible? Brother Li Cha deliberately let us see that he has sent troops to Shunzhou overnight. The Xixia army will appear in Shunzhou early tomorrow morning and start to besiege Shunzhou." .”

"The army is dispatched to Shunzhou at night?" Fan Zhixu asked suspiciously, "This is not easy, and the possibility is not great!"

"No! It's really possible!" Zhao Ning suddenly looked at Sun Fu with bright eyes.

Chapter 1093 The battlefield is in Shunzhou? (Second more)

On October 24th, at three o'clock in the morning, Xiaoxue, it was dawn.

But the sky and the earth were pure white, empty and silent, with several days of snow engulfing everything.

Looking around, there is only endless snowfields.

There is nothing outside Shunzhou city.

Since the last time Li Yanxian defeated the Xixia soldiers and horses in a row, the Shunzhou area has temporarily stopped.

In order to cooperate with Zhang Jun's large army, Li Yanxian did not go north immediately, but recharged his batteries in Shunzhou City.

There must be enough food. Xixia people hoarded food for half a year in Shunzhou, and the eight thousand Song soldiers could eat three meals a day, throwing three meals, and they could eat for more than half a year.

On the top of the city, Song Jun, who had just finished his breakfast and came to change his guard, suddenly saw a black mark appearing on the white snow field ahead.

The sky and the earth were silent, amidst the faint sound of wind and snow, some dense sounds could be vaguely heard.

It seemed to be the crunching sound of human feet stepping on the snow.

These sounds are like the sound of waves slowly sweeping over, gradually becoming clearer, echoing over the snow field.

Soon, a black silhouette could be seen moving slowly on the white snow field.

It looks very obvious.

The drums in Shunzhou City sounded, it was the sound of enemy attack.

"Li Shuai, the enemy is coming." Guan Shigu ran to the door of Li Yanxian's room and shouted.

Li Yanxian opened the door and said, "I heard a voice."

"There are tens of thousands of people here!" Guan Shigu said.

"It seems that the gold thief knows that we have the least troops." Li Yanxian still had a smile on his face, and he didn't seem nervous.

After speaking, he put on a cloak and walked towards the corridor.

Guan Shigu followed him and said: "Mr. Zhang has an army of [-] in Lingzhou. I heard that His Majesty also led an army of [-] from Youzhou to Lingzhou. The western thieves were able to march to Shunzhou under the eyes of the army. I will figure it out in the end."

"The thieves are much more familiar with the terrain of Pingxi Mansion than we are. The dark night can also walk through the outline of the surrounding forests, but our army can't. Our army can't march in the dark night. At this critical moment, the guides of the party members can't do it." Okay, it's not surprising that the western thief came to Shunzhou."

"Aren't the western thieves afraid that today's news has reached Lingzhou, Zhang Xianggong sent a large army to attack them, and cooperate with us inside and outside the city?"

Li Yanxian stopped, looked at Guan Shigu and said: "The western thieves dare to come to Shunzhou for two reasons. One is that they think that Shunzhou can be taken within one day, so that Mr. Zhang's reinforcements will be too late to rescue us. We have already lost. The second is to do this on purpose, and gather around to fight for aid!"

"Then what shall we do?"

"What should I do?" Li Yanxian continued to walk forward, "Of course we open the city gates and directly fight against the western thieves. Our army is so powerful, how can there be any reason to avoid the western thieves?"

After about four quarters of the century, the first batch of Xixia troops had arrived in Shunzhou City.

The main force behind followed closely behind.

Brother Li Cha looked at Shunzhou City and asked, "Who is General Song who attacked Shunzhou?"

"According to what was said before when the soldiers were defeated and fled back, it might be Li Yanxian, the envoy of Xihe Road."

"It's him!" Brother Li Cha was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "That would be even better, let's use him as a test, and hope that Zhang Jun can send reinforcements as soon as possible. I can't wait any longer."

Shunzhou is only fifty or sixty miles northwest of Lingzhou, and the army can walk there in a day.

Brother Li Cha was obviously planning to besiege the city and fight for aid.

The Xixia army also seemed to have made sufficient preparations, relying on the large number of people, they began to line up as soon as they arrived.

After walking all night, at dawn, the Xixia people were exhausted after eating breakfast, and instead became excited in the snowstorm.

"Report, His Royal Highness King Jin, the Song army has left the city!"

"Oh?"

Brother Li Cha climbed to the handsome platform built for him, looked over, and saw that the top of the city was full of Song troops, the east gate was opened, and teams of Song troops were coming out in an orderly manner.

"Li Yanxian actually went out of the city to fight this king, he is very confident in himself!" Brother Li Cha said, "In that case, this king will send someone to fight you!"

Soon, the war drums of the Song Army sounded, and the majestic horns on the top of the city also lingered in the sky.

The former army of the Xixia people also dispatched, combining infantry and cavalry.

The two sides lined up opposite each other outside the East City.

The cavalry on the two wings of the Song Army began to take the initiative to attack. Holding long spears, they quickly rushed towards the two wings of the Xixia people's front army.

The fighting between the two sides soon began, and the two sides fought with cavalry.

The cavalry of the Xixia people did not simply charge, but assisted with bows and arrows.

But the cavalry of the Song Army were much rougher and charged directly.

Occasionally, some cavalry horses fell to the ground with arrows, but when most of the cavalry charged, they quickly formed a huge wave of cavalry, which bows and arrows could not resist.

The Xixia people saw that the Song Army cavalry was fighting so wildly, and they didn't dare to play bows and arrows anymore, so they hurriedly started to hedge, otherwise, when the Song Army came over, they would probably be overthrown.

In this way, the two sides rushed together quickly.

The advantage was quickly divided, and the two cavalry of the Song Army could kill the three cavalry of Xixia.

Brother Li Cha was a little surprised when he saw how rough the Song Army cavalry was fighting, and he said, "Did Li Yanxian fight so brutally before?"

This question has to be asked to Li Liangfu, because the [-] troops commanded by Li Liangfu at that time were defeated by Li Yanxian outside Lanzhou City, and he was most impressed.

Brother Li Cha said indifferently: "Increasing troops! This king wants to see how many troops he has to consume with this king!"

The infantry on both sides had not yet moved. When the cavalry was fighting so fiercely, the Xixia cavalry began to reinforce.

"Li Shuai, the Xixia people have increased their troops!"

"We will also increase our troops and send out all the cavalry!" Li Yanxian said simply and clearly.

"The western bandits are obviously relying on their superiority in strength to consume our army."

"It depends on whether he has the ability! Increase troops!"

One after another cavalry rushed out from Shunzhou, joined the battlefield, and fought with the Xixia cavalry.

The battlefield quickly became intense, and the infantry still did not move.

Everyone is waiting for their cavalry to defeat the opponent's cavalry, and then quickly attack the opponent's infantry flank.

But now the cavalry fought most fiercely.

It wasn't until noon that Brother Li Cha felt that the battle had hurt him so much that he called for money to withdraw.

It's not that he can't afford to consume his troops, but if he continues to consume like this, how can he fight the reinforcements sent by Zhang Jun?

"His Royal Highness King Jin, let the last general go to meet the Song Army!" Li Renyi said.

"Don't worry, Li Yanxian is not easy to deal with in a frontal battle. Let's siege Shunzhou first. His troops are limited. Our goal is not to fight him."

The highlight is not in Shunzhou, but in the back.

This is also the purpose of Brother Li Cha who has been sending people to harass the Song army in Lingzhou these days. The smoke is released a little more, so as to lure the Song army in Lingzhou out instead of hiding in the camp.

As long as the Song Army can come out, as long as the Song Army moves, Brother Li Cha thinks that there is still a way to deal with the Song Army.

Chapter 1094 The Supreme Realm of Fighting Silly Wars (Part [-])

Information from Shunzhou reached Lingzhou in half a day.

"The main force of Xixia is in Shunzhou?"

This question not only surprised Zhang Jun's number one aide, Lu Zhi, but also Zhang Jun himself.

What are the Xixia people doing here?

"How many troops do the Xixia people have?" Zhang Jun couldn't help asking.

Everyone was taken aback by Zhang Jun's question, and Liu Ziyu couldn't help but said, "The combined Xingqing Mansion and Xiping Mansion can cost up to [-], and it can't be more."

Zhang Jun asked again: "As far as Xixia's military strength is concerned, what is Li Cha's purpose in attacking Shunzhou?"

After a while of silence, Lu Zhi suddenly said: "In recent nights, Xixia people have frequently raided our barracks, which shows that Brother Li Cha does not intend to only fight defensively. According to His Majesty, the core area of ​​Xixia Kingdom has no military depth. If you want to It’s impossible to fight a protracted war.”
