Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

"Stupid! Ridiculous!" Fei Ting Yeshen scolded, "The Song army is sieging the city to break our morale, and put pressure on Xingzhou, forcing Xingzhou to send troops to besiege the city and fight for aid. The biggest victory!"

"Tongjun, he is shaking our army's morale. If the Song army could attack the city, they would have attacked it long ago. Now that the weather is severe and the difficulty of attacking the city has increased, the Song army dare not act rashly."

"Idiots! The Song army has a powerful siege weapon, why don't they use it all the time? Reckless people like you who are eager to kill everywhere because of a little bit of force, how can the main battlefield be ups and downs?"

"Vice Commander, you might as well make your words clearer." Shang Zhui said coldly.

"If the Song army captured the city wall a few days ago, and our army resisted desperately in the city, the Song army would have to pay a huge price, but if it was surrounded but not attacked, it would be an attack on the heart. You go and see the mentality of the soldiers now. Today, the soldiers completely gave up their ideas, how can they still fight? Then the Song army will attack the city again, and it is only a matter of time before Lingzhou is captured. Song people have a saying, those who know the current affairs are the best!"

Shang Zhui said: "Tongjun, if we surrender, the imperial army will suddenly attack and drive back the Song army, and we will all die without a place to die!"

"I don't know how the Yuzhou battlefield is going, and what attitude Xingzhou has." Lingbu Zhongshan said distressedly.

Lingbu Zhongshan's troubles are exactly Brother Li Cha's troubles.

Lingzhou was besieged by [-] Song troops, and Brother Li Cha was worried that Lingzhou would surrender.

As soon as Lingzhou surrendered and Shunzhou was in the hands of the Song army, the short-term unity within Xingzhou would immediately be divided.

"Persist for a few more days and see the situation!" Lingbu Zhongshan finished his drink, got up and went out.

Fei Ting and Ye Shen followed immediately, and said in a low voice, "I heard from the gossip that Yuzhou has already been defeated. Li Yu and others surrendered and received courtesy. As long as they are willing to surrender, they can have a good future."

In the next few days, multiple scouts of the Song Army appeared in the vicinity of Jingzhou.

Every scout of the Song army was telling Zhao Ning and Zhang Jun that Jingzhou was in a state of silence, and even the defenders at the top of the city seemed listless.

Seeing this information, combined with the previous series of operations of the Xixia Army, any normal commander would immediately send troops to Jingzhou.

But in this world, there are really not many people who can fight dumbly.

Zeng Guofan also experienced countless defeats before he made up his mind to fight step by step. Even if a huge opportunity is in front of him, he can't shake his step-by-step rhythm.

During this period, news of the defeat of the Song army that supported Shunzhou on three routes reached Zhang Jun, which aroused heated discussions among government officials and staff.

Some people couldn't sit still, such as Liu Ziyu. He said: "Whether the Xixia people really lured us to Jingzhou on purpose is unknown. It is all our speculation. Now that the reinforcements have been raided midway, the Xixia people have turned around. We have to get it back!"

Even Lu Zhi was a little shaken.

Zhang Jun hesitated again and again, and said: "Those who achieve great things, please calm down, this is the reason why I dare not let you lead troops alone!"

But Zhang Jun's heart was swaying from side to side.

Zhang Jun wrote to Zhao Ning several times, revealing between the lines that attacking Jingzhou at this time was a chance to deal a fatal blow to the remnants of Xixia.

Zhang Jun has repeatedly emphasized that Jingzhou is located between Shunzhou and Xingqing Prefecture. As long as Jingzhou is taken down, the main force of Xixia in Shunzhou will be cut off from retreat.

This strategy is indeed very tempting. Every time Zhao Ning reads Zhang Jun's letter, he will be shaken.

They were even ready to let Zhang Bofen lead the elite to attack Jingzhou, and even gave Fan Zhixu the order to transfer troops, even Fan Zhixu walked out of the camp, but was called back in a blink of an eye.

Zhao Ning kept admonishing himself not to change the rhythm easily, not to move around, Wei Ming An Hui must have already started to act.

Take it easy!

Now the advantage is really on me!

On October [-]th, the two Song armies supporting Shunzhou fought against the Xixia army in Shunzhou respectively.

On the contrary, Brother Li Cha fell into confusion and inner anxiety.

Song Jun never left for Jingzhou?

This shouldn't be!

With such a good opportunity, Song Jun has no idea?

Can you bear a beautiful girl standing in front of you without wearing anything?

If this continues, the situation will get worse and worse!

As Brother Richard said, the situation in Xingzhou is changing.

Early in the morning on the first day of November, please drink morning tea and have breakfast.

"Master Wang, how about this tea?"

"This tea is Mengding tea. It is said that it is an extremely rare tea in the Song Dynasty. It is produced in Mengding Mountain in the Shu region. After being picked by various ministries there, it is transported out through mountains and rivers." Wang Chang said.

"Wang Xianggong actually knows about this tea?"

"King Jin gave me some before."

"Prince Jin is really willing."

"King Jin has been doing business with Song State these years, but he got a lot of good things." Wang Chang said with emotion.

"Song Guo was beaten to the gate of the capital by Jin Guo and begged us for an alliance, but now he is beaten to the gate of our capital." Wei Ming An Hui said, "Why do you think?"

Wang Chang shook his head: "Why?"

"If we didn't form an alliance with Song, Song would have been wiped out by Jin at least half a long time ago. Will today's situation still happen?"

Wang Chang said: "You mean, the responsibility lies with King Jin?"

Chapter 1097 Xingzhou Surrenders (Part [-])

Wei Ming Anhui didn't speak, but it seemed that she had already said everything.

The two drank tea for a while, Wang Chang was obviously touched by Wei Ming Anhui's words, and fell into deep thought.

Wei Ming Anhui suddenly said: "Mr. Wang, how is King Jin doing at the front these few days?"

"Huh?" Wang Chang came back to his senses, "Prince Jin?"

"Yes, the King of Jin led the elite to the front line. You are the deputy envoy of the Privy Council. Didn't the situation on the front line be reported to you?"

"This……"

"No report?"

"No……"

Wei Ming An Hui couldn't help but solemnly said: "The relationship between the King of Jin and the State of Song is very..."

"Very what?"

"The King of Jin has had close dealings with the State of Song in recent years. Many officials of the State of Song have a very good relationship with the King of Jin. The King of Jin will not lead the army to surrender to the State of Song!"

Wei Ming An Hui pretended to be surprised.

At present, people in Xingzhou City were already fluctuating, and Wei Ming An Hui's words suddenly made Wang Chang feel uneasy.

"Is that impossible?"

"I also don't think it's possible." Wei Ming Anhui said, "However, King Jin's subordinates are also involved in business with Song State. These people are also related to Song State. If they persuade Jin King to surrender, they will Something is wrong!"

"What's wrong?"

"Haven't you figured out the benefits?"

Wang Chang was horrified in his heart, and looked at Wei Ming An Hui in confusion.

"If King Jin surrenders, what shall we do?" Wei Ming Anhui said.

"We...we can only follow..." Wang Chang didn't know how to answer this for a while.

"Shall we surrender?" Wei Ming Anhui asked.

"Do you have a good idea?"

"Can we surrender behind King Jin?" Wei Ming Anhui asked.

"Why not?"

"If King Jin surrendered, he must be rewarded by the Zhao official family first, and he had a lot of transactions with Song people before. After occupying most of the positions, if we surrender again, there will still be our position?"

Asked by Wei Ming An Hui, Wang Chang immediately reacted, he stood up and exclaimed: "Jin Wang, he can't be so shameless!"

"Now that the Song army has reached Lingzhou, everyone is in danger. Who will talk about etiquette, justice, and shame?"

"Then what should we do?" Wang Chang seemed to understand the seriousness of the problem.

For aristocrats like them who are accustomed to living in luxury, let alone death, even if they lose their wealth, they cannot bear to live the lives of ordinary people.

Wei Ming Anhui sighed, and said, "King Jin doesn't send you a battle report, which means that the front line is not good. The best way for us now is to express our position in advance."

"This is not good, the situation of the battle is unknown."

"When the battle situation is clear, we will be finished." Wei Ming Anhui said, "At that time, we will have no chance. You should think about it clearly. What is your relationship with King Jin? If he gains power, will he spare you?"

Wang Chang's forehead was sweating, and he stopped drinking tea, and said: "The Prime Minister's words make sense, what should we do specifically?"

"Ren Dejing told me when he came back that the Zhao official family promised us that as long as we open the city and surrender, we will all be given officials, the glory will never end, and we will be rich and honored for a lifetime."

"Is it believable?"

"Yeluyu saw that Xiao Heda had all defected to the Great Song Dynasty. Those who gave officials were given officials, those who were given fields were given fields, and those who were captured by the Jin army generals were not killed. Song revealed the situation of the court of the Kingdom of Jin, and was personally received by the Zhao official family and praised."

"Everything is at the discretion of the prime minister. I will act according to the prime minister's orders. I just hope that the prime minister will not forget to step down from office. In the future, the wealth and honor of my clan will depend on the prime minister."

"I wrote a letter with the people of the Song Dynasty, explaining the ins and outs. This matter is top secret. You can't talk about it at will. Our only chance to survive is here. When the Song army comes, we will surrender and join the king's division. Don't talk about this kind of tea in the future, everyone. Song's treasure, just enjoy it as you like."

Yes!

He was even more excited when he was told by Wei Ming An Hui.

As an official of the Song Dynasty, if you want to buy tea, silk, and treasures from the Song Dynasty in the future, you don't need to be sneaky.

Hearing that the beauties in Song Dynasty are as beautiful as flowers, I have long wanted to try it.

"The next official depends on the prime minister's arrangement!"

On the evening of November [-], Songying in Lingzhou, which was only a hundred miles away from Xingzhou, received a secret letter from Xixia people. It was sent by a person named Anhui, and it was delivered to Zhao Ning's desk.

"Wei Ming An Hui convinced Wang Chang. This Wang Chang is the deputy envoy of the Privy Council. He is currently in charge of the city defense of Xingzhou together with Wei Ming An Hui. Both of them are willing to surrender to our Song Dynasty." Zhao Ning's tone was flat, but he was happy in his heart flower.

"Is there a conspiracy?" Fan Zhixu asked.

"Your Majesty, if you send an army to Xingzhou to take over now, it will be easy to be raided by Brother Li Cha's cavalry halfway." It was Sun Fu who spoke, and this guy was obviously still angry about not sending troops to Jingzhou.

Sun Fu continued: "If you can go to Xingzhou to take over Xingzhou, why can't you send troops to Jingzhou?"

"It's different." Chen Gui said, "Jingzhou is very close to Shunzhou. As long as we act, we can't avoid the eyes of Brother Li Cha's scouts. Brother Li Cha can quickly kill the carbine, and Xingzhou is nearly eight kilometers away from Shunzhou. Ten miles, Brother Li Cha is not so easy to kill the carbine."

Chen Gui continued: "Furthermore, if we want to attack Jingzhou, we must send infantry to attack the city, but now to take over Xingzhou, we only need to send an elite cavalry there. If the Xixia people cheat, the cavalry can be quickly withdrawn at any time, Richard Brother wants to raid the cavalry, it is impossible."

Sun Fu wanted to say something, but found that he could not refute.

"Liu Kai, you command five thousand cavalry and go to Xingzhou yourself."

"Yes!"

"Remember, select a group of cavalry who can dismount and fight on foot, and they will be more flexible in the process of taking over Xingzhou!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will handle this matter properly."

On November [-], early in the morning, Liu Kai led a cavalry and rushed towards Xingzhou.

At noon, Brother Li Cha received the news, he asked in confusion: "The Song army sent out a cavalry?"

"Yes."

"Only cavalry?"

"Only cavalry!"

Zhang Chunming said: "The Song army must be preparing to attack Jingzhou. First dispatch the cavalry to cover the infantry."

"Hahaha……"

"Why is King Jin laughing?"

"Song people thought that a single cavalry could cover the siege infantry. Don't you know that our Great Xia cavalry far outnumbers the Song army's cavalry." Brother Li Cha immediately said seriously, "Li Que!"

Li Que came out: "The end is here!"

"You command [-] elite cavalry to entangle this Song army cavalry."

"Order!"

Li Renyi suddenly came out and said, "Your Highness, let the last general go, and the last general will definitely wipe out the entire Song army!"

"No, the iron kite should be reserved for attacking the main infantry of the Song people. You don't have to worry, there is a time for you to show!"

Li Que led five thousand cavalry, and headed north like the wind.

But in the afternoon, Li Que, who was chasing Liu Kai all the way, realized that something was wrong.
