Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Empress Dowager Cao was in her early thirties, a woman of Han nationality. She was as beautiful as a flower when she was young, and she was more mature in her early thirties.

She began to undress.

The man's joyful voice and the woman's weeping voice came from the hall.

Liu Kai was waiting outside the city, and Liu Rui came over and said, "Brother, will the Xi thief keep his promise?"

"Wait and see, don't worry, if there is a change, retreat immediately."

"Okay, I'll send someone to keep an eye on the thieves in the back, and nothing will happen."

The two were discussing, and the gate of Xingzhou was opened.

Wei Ming Anhui led a group of officials out of the city in person, and carried out Li Renxiao who was in a coma. Naturally, he also brought a large number of heads of the main combat faction.

"My name is Anhui, see angel."

Wei's name, An Hui, knew Liu Qi. When he was negotiating conditions with Zhao Guan's family some time ago, Liu Qi was present.

"these are?"

Wei Ming Anhui pointed to Li Renxiao and said, "This is my lord. My lord is weak and has recently contracted a cold. The angel forgives me."

Pointing to those heads again, he said: "These are diehards, and they intend to exchange the lives of the people in my city for their lingering days. I have killed them all, and all the anti-Song people in the city have been arrested and killed by me. Lord of Great Xia, Yuxi, please accept the angel's smile."

Liu Kai nodded, and with the support of Wei Ming Anhui and others, he entered the city.

Li Que, who led the Xixia cavalry behind, learned that the Song army had entered the city, and it was too late.

"How did the Song army enter the city?" Li Que was furious.

The scout said: "It is the city gate that opened actively in the city!"

"It must be Wei's name, An Hui!" Li Que yelled, "Send the news back to Shunzhou."

"Yes!"

Li Que sent a group of scouts to deliver the letter quickly, and then returned with the cavalry himself.

It is meaningless to pursue Song Jun now.

In the evening of that day, the city of Xingzhou was in chaos.

Wei Ming Anhui took the opportunity to fight against her former political opponents. Countless people's homes were ransacked, the men were dragged to the street and chopped into rotten meat, and the women were dragged to the corner.

Even swaddled babies were thrown to the ground.

The streets were full of dead bodies, and some people said that the snow that fell that day was red.

Xingzhou City turned into hell on this day.

On the morning of the fifth day of November, Zhao Ning received a reply from Liu Qi.

Xingzhou City is under control.

This means that Brother Li Cha has lost the orthodox jurisprudence, and the next step is just to resist.

At this time, the news was also sent to Brother Li Cha.

Chapter 1100 Brother Richard's decision (first update)

"What did you say!" Brother Li Cha turned pale with shock.

The scout said: "The Song Army has already entered Xingzhou City, and all the officials in the city opened the gates to welcome the Song Army into the city."

"It's impossible!" Brother Li Cha's mind went blank for a moment. He remembered that most of the people in Xingzhou City were governed by party members.

The most powerful person named An Hui has been a staunch pro-gold and anti-Song faction for ten years.

Wang Chang is the father-in-law of the new king Li Renxiao. He has military power in his hands, so how could he betray Daxia?

It's not that Li Cha didn't think that these people might secretly communicate with the people of Song Dynasty, but even if they had private contacts, they definitely wouldn't want to surrender.

At most, they would send people to negotiate a peace and pay compensation in private, so as to delay and give the Jin people time.

Directly opening the city and putting the Song army into the capital like now is tantamount to directly destroying the country.

Brother Li Cha looked miserable, looking in the direction of the north, feeling a little out of control, he looked up to the sky and sighed: "I have been greedy for Song people's money all these years, and I have missed the country! I have missed the country!"

"Your Highness, you also want to enrich the country and strengthen the army for the Great Xia." Zhang Chunming looked moved and said comfortingly, "If you hadn't enriched the treasury, how could the Great Xia have hundreds of thousands of soldiers."

"Hand down the king's order to summon the entire army, and the king will fight the Song people to the death."

"You must not!" Zhang Chunming stopped immediately, "His Royal Highness is now surrendering in Xingzhou. Jingzhou and Dingzhou will soon receive orders to surrender. You need to go there in person. There are still troops there, so you can't surrender. Lingzhou has been besieged for many days without reinforcements, and I am afraid that it will surrender. Once Lingzhou surrenders, Zhang Jun can mobilize more main forces to fill the buffer between Jingzhou and Shunzhou with sufficient troops, and win the opportunity for his main force to advance and station. Time, then our army will be sealed in Shunzhou!"

Li Renyi also said: "Your Highness, there is no need to be discouraged. In addition to Jingzhou and Huaizhou, we still have [-] troops. The Yan Army Division, as well as the Xiliang Mansion in Hexi, Gansu Army Division, Suzhou, and Guazhou Xiping Army Division are still in hand, and we can still stabilize the situation."

Zhang Chunming continued: "That's right, Your Highness, I still have soldiers who can fight in Great Xia. As long as Your Highness doesn't give up, we will immediately move to the desert or Hexi. As long as the Song army can't defeat our main force within a few months, the Kingdom of Jin will be defeated." You can put pressure on Song Guo."

Brother Li Cha pondered for a moment, calmed down his emotions, and said: "Your lords are willing to share joys and sorrows with this king, and this king is very relieved. This time Song people occupy my ancestral land, but I can do nothing. I am extremely ashamed, and I will never give up."

Everyone said: "Will go through fire and water for His Highness!"

Brother Li Cha said: "I thought that the Zhao Guan family would send troops to Jingzhou. I have been waiting for a long time with elite cavalry, but what I was waiting for was the fall of Xingzhou. From this point of view, the Zhao Guan family has already laid out the overall situation, but they are far better than this king."

Sometimes people have to give in, and if they refuse, they can continue to be stubborn, and in the end they will be killed.

If you don’t know how to be a human being, reality will teach you how to be a human being!

Reality can't teach you, so what kind of people are you?

Brother Li Cha was obviously convinced, but he did not surrender.

"After dark, pull out the camp and retreat. Both Jingzhou and Huaizhou are the king's confidantes. We will retreat to Dingzhou first, and then retreat to the military commander of Baimaqiang Town, staying away from Xingqing Mansion and delaying time."

"Yes!"

Brother Li Cha knew that it was impossible for him to return to Xingzhou now. The end of returning to Xingzhou would be to be locked outside the city gate, and the rear would be exposed to the soldiers of the Song army. That would be a dead end.

Xixia State owns the desert as the depth, and Hexi as the depth.

In the end, like Yelu Dashi, he went away to Mobei.

Dangxiang people are nomads. It is not impossible to go back to nomadic habits, recharge your energy, and then develop, and come back when the time is right in the future.

Just after lunch, Zhao Ning couldn't wait to come out to inspect the troops.

"Your Majesty, the army is being mobilized, are we planning to send troops?" Sun Fu asked.

"Sun Qing seems to be very interested in fighting?"

"The ministers are all concerned for His Majesty."

Chen Gui hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, the First Army has dispatched troops."

Zhao Ning nodded, but Sun Fu said, "Does Your Majesty want to take Jingzhou?"

Zhao Ning ignored him, and Sun Fu continued: "Didn't you say before that you can't take Jingzhou?"

Chen Gui on the one side thought to himself that Sun Fu insisted on sending troops to Jingzhou before, but was denied many times. It seems that he has resentment in his heart and remembers the grudge.

But Zhao Ning rode on the horse and walked forward.

"Your Majesty! Wait for me! Your Majesty!" Sun Fu followed, "Is Your Majesty going to send troops to Jingzhou? Didn't Your Majesty say that you can't send troops to Jingzhou? Isn't Your Majesty afraid of being attacked by the Xixia people? Think you were wrong before?"

Chen Gui couldn't help laughing. For some reason, Zhao Guan's tolerance for Sun Fu was extremely high. Maybe Zhao Guan's intention was to establish an image of direct advice, to spread the word, or for other purposes.

Chen Gui couldn't figure it out for a while.

On the other hand, Sun Fu is extremely vindictive and serious.

Chen Gui followed quickly, he was still very worried about Sun Fu, if Sun Fu disturbed Zhao Guan's family and got angry, it would be bad if he chopped off his head with a knife.

Chen Gui said: "Sun Guanren, Brother Li Cha already knows that Xingzhou has fallen, and he has lost the determination to continue fighting with us, so now our army has to act."

"Why?" Sun Fu said, "He knows that Xingzhou has fallen, so he should put all his eggs in one basket with us!"

"The fall of Xingzhou means that Jingzhou, Huaizhou, and Dingzhou will soon receive orders to surrender. Even if some people are unwilling to surrender, there are still some who are definitely willing to surrender. This is fatal to Brother Richard. of."

Chen Gui explained patiently: "In the north, Brother Li Cha still has a military front that can be retreated. For Brother Li Cha, now quickly go back to Jingzhou to gather Jingzhou soldiers and horses, and go north to bring all Huaizhou soldiers and Dingzhou soldiers and horses. Let’s go, it’s best to retreat to the Chaoshun Military Division on the right side, and finally transfer to the Heishan Weifu Military Division.”

For a person like Sun Fu who only knows how to fight hard, the idea of ​​withdrawing troops and delaying time is indeed difficult for him.

"What are you doing to retreat? You said before that Brother Li Cha still has elites who can raid the main force of our army. Since Brother Li Cha still has enough troops, why do you want to retreat? He will never retreat. I am him, and I will definitely continue to fight. !"

Chen Gui finally understood that in Sun Fu's mind, wars are usually won or lost in one battle.

But in fact, there will be many battles, the time is prolonged, and the outcome is different.

Brother Li Cha, who lost the support of Xingzhou, is equivalent to losing the material support of the entire Xitao Plain. After all, Xingzhou is the head of the Xitao Plain.

Without follow-up material support, Brother Li Cha has no confidence to come out and fight now.

Chen Gui still said patiently: "If the battle goes wrong, Brother Li Cha will lose the opportunity to retreat. It is in the best interest of Brother Li Cha to retreat to the north, delay time, and wait for the action of Jin Kingdom."

"How is this possible? It's because you have the most words!" Sun Fu said on the spot.

But Zhao Ning had already walked to the front, and Sun Fu's voice was no longer heard.

But Sun Fu didn't seem to give up and chased after him.

Chen Gui also followed.

The Praetorian barracks basically went into action.

Chapter 1101 Entering Xingqing Mansion (Second Change)

On the fifth day of November, the imperial guards who had been recharging their batteries thirty miles southeast of Lingzhou started to travel.

This action caused a commotion.

In the afternoon, Brother Li Cha's scouts reported the movements of the Emperor's Guards Brigade.

If it was before the fall of Xingzhou, brother Li Cha must have been very happy to hear the news, because he had hidden a large number of elite cavalry in Shunzhou, and even iron kites. With his familiarity with the terrain, he was very likely to take the initiative.

But it's different now.

The situation is different, and the mentality is completely different.

Brother Li Cha could only start packing up, preparing to retreat overnight.

In the afternoon, the city gate of Lingzhou opened suddenly.

Surrounded by some people, Fei Tingye Shen walked towards the Song Army barracks.

After Song Jun reported layer by layer, Zhang Jun soon met Fei Tingye Shen.

After a short negotiation, the two sides reached a consensus: the Song army accepted Lingzhou's unconditional surrender.

The Xixia army in Lingzhou handed over all their weapons, and the commander of the unified army ordered Chongshan to enter the Song camp, waiting for a summons.

Liu Ziyu arranged for the Song Army to enter Lingzhou and take over Lingzhou City.

In the evening, Song Junbing took Lingzhou without bloodshed.

The surrender of Lingzhou, as Zhang Chunming said, meant that Zhang Jun had sufficient troops to place between Jingzhou and Shunzhou, forming a large depth and locking Brother Li Cha's retreat.

But obviously it was too late for Zhang Jun to arrange a large depth.

As soon as it was dark that day, brother Li Cha broke out of camp and set off, quickly marching in the direction of Jingzhou.

It is very difficult to withdraw troops, not to mention that the enemy is within a hundred miles, and a frontal conflict may occur at any time.

Once this happens, Brother Li Cha may be dragged in this area.

The maneuverable space left for Brother Li Cha is not enough.

In the morning of the next day, thirty miles to the north of Lingzhou City, the Imperial Guard Brigade and Brother Li Cha's army met, and the two sides fought head-on.

After fighting for a full hour and a half, the Xixia army was completely defeated.

In the afternoon, the news reached Zhao Ning.

"Didn't you find Brother Li Cha?"

"Report to Your Majesty, no."

"It seems that Brother Li Cha just stayed behind. The main force may have arrived in Jingzhou now." Zhao Ning said, "Brother Li Cha moved faster than I imagined."

"Didn't we send cavalry to Jingzhou?" Sun Fu said, "Brother Li Cha went to Jingzhou to cast himself in a trap."

"It can only consume Brother Li Cha. Simple cavalry can't take advantage of Brother Li Cha's cavalry." Chen Gui said.

Sure enough, in the evening, the cavalry corps dispatched to Jingzhou sent back information that they encountered Brother Li Cha's main force in Jingzhou.

The two sides fought, but then the Song cavalry was forced to retreat.

Once the maneuvering space of the cavalry is locked by the opponent's cavalry and the infantry pushes up, the cavalry basically has no way to fight.
