The second sixty-ninth chapter that public
"Report, Duke Lu, there is a big, big, big, big, big, big victory in Dashun City," said the scout excitedly.
"Speak slowly." Lu Sheng said.
"At the third update yesterday, Mr. Cai sent a group of tyrant cavalry to attack the enemy camp, and thousands of troops were sent to attack from the inside. I heard that the battle was very bad, and only a dozen tyrant cavalry survived. At about half past four, Mr. Cai sent people to circumnavigate behind the enemy, and worked with a group of tyrants on the other side of the mountain to burn all the food and grass of the enemy camp in the Western Xia. After that, after two hours of fighting, several cavalry forces suddenly fought to kill the little emperor of the Western Xia. He heard that he had killed and cut off one hand, so the three armies of the Western Xia were defeated, and the Wuchuan corpses on the east and west sides of the Dashun City were everywhere, and blood flowed into a river."
The last sentence is nonsense. In a major battle like this, no matter which side loses, the outcome will be like that. For example, at the defeat of Qigou Pass, the outcome of the Song army is even worse than that of the Xixia army outside Dashun City.
But Lu Shen didn't believe it and asked: "Can reinforcements from other roads arrive?"
Don’t blame him for being suspicious. There are only a total of more than 40 battalions of officers and soldiers on Huanqing Road. In fact, he has lost two battalions and two new battalions of foreign cavalry in Huachi County. But if you count these two battalions, there are only 500 infantry soldiers, 400 cavalrymen, and some places occupied by empty salary. How many troops can you actually have?
So Lu Shi did not believe that Cai Ting defeated so many troops in Xixia with his troops. Since Cai Ting could ask for troops from him, he could also move troops to other routes, such as Jingyuan route and Yongxing army. If the two routes secretly sent 30th and 40th battalions of officers and soldiers, perhaps Cai Ting would have the power to fight.
"I haven't heard of it, but Mr. Cai seems to have sent many strong men to fight."
"Go down and find out again."
"Here." The scout went down excitedly. How could he know the intrigues of the upper class. They were all officials of the Song Dynasty and soldiers of the Song Dynasty. How could he be unhappy if he wins? Moreover, the officers and soldiers are defeated repeatedly, and they do not have much dignity when they serve in the army.
"Wang Wenliang, don't you say that the Song army is in danger?"
"Mr. Lu, no, is this little emperor unable to use troops?"
"This is almost the same," Lu Shi said, otherwise how could so many people lose so badly?
But now the problem is coming. Cai Ting once deliberately wrote to himself, asking to send troops to provide assistance at that time. The young magistrate moved his troops twice, but he did not send any troops.
Of course, if several battalions of officers and soldiers were urgently dispatched this morning, no matter whether they were late or not, at least this was done. But if the troops were sent now, it would be even more ridiculous.
The victory is coming to the capital soon, the more you win, the less glorious you are. What should I do?
He walked around and suddenly came up with a good idea. A very beautiful one.
The news also reached Zhong Yan's ears, and the scout said, "Where can the second general make great contributions there?"
The second general refers to the treatment of the disease.
This is even more sad. His second brother is happy to make contributions, but can he be as good as his second brother? Not to mention martial arts, just talking about his proficiency in military tactics, the second brother is not as good as his own. The second brother has made great contributions to paddling there, so what if he changes himself?
I don’t want this Qingjian City Lord, okay?
Therefore, Zhong Yan's personality is not very good. This person can indeed fight. At one time, the people of Xixia fled when they look at the flag. However, Zhong Yan is relatively selfish, lacks team cooperation, and is also greedy for merit. Perhaps later generations could also list Zhong Yan as a famous general in the Song Dynasty, but Wang Ju didn't like it very much. If Wang Ju came to choose, he would rather have to go to Zhong Yan than ask for Zhong Yan.
…………
"You," Cai Ting knocked Wang Ju's forehead with his hand and said, "You have also been replaced by me and others' hands. I have already written a letter to impeach you."
"Mr. Cai is right, but it is because of Mr. Cai's subordinates that the subordinates dare to do this."
"Forget it, just take it. Anyway, this battle will make the Xixia people unable to recover their vitality in a few years." Cai Ting said. But he also underestimated the resilience of the Xixia people. Why did Li Zicheng say that he was a descendant of Li Jiqian? One was a Han Chinese and the other was a Dangxiang people, and it seemed that he could not get involved. But it was indeed very similar, cruel, cunning, treacherous, unfaithful, and unyielding, and dared to lose and fight.
Under the leadership of Li Jiqian, the Xixia people also had this characteristic. Unless they were pitted like Zhang Qi and lost 200,000 to 300,000 troops at once, then Xixia people would be in danger. If they pitted tens of thousands of people like this, the Xixia people would soon relapse.
Of course, in the past or two years, Xixia did not dare to do anything to the Song Dynasty.
"But since you have captured the Xinjiang Ball Fort, you have to rebuilt it. Winter is coming soon, so you have to hurry up." Cai Ting said again.
This is another issue that Wang Ju didn't pay much attention to in his previous life. For example, Dashun City, its predecessor was Xixia Mapu Village, but the current address of Dashun City is not on the original address of Mapu Village. It turned out that Mapu Village was located east of the West Mountain, with its back on the West Mountain, facing the Song Dynasty. Therefore, after Fan Zhongyan sent his son and Zhao Ming to take down Mapu Village, he immediately brought a large number of civilians to repair it. Because if he wanted to defend this place, he had to place the fortress on the west mountain, otherwise the enemy would not have to defend the city anymore and escape obediently.
There are similar situations in the Xinjiang Basin Fort. There are two large streams on both sides, which are actually two small rivers. However, the water level difference is large and the water flows are turbulent, so it is called a stream. It is then located on the top of a dirt mountain, so it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Now Wang Ju used a clever trick to take it down easily, but this fort is located on the east side of Tushan, which means that if the Xixia people counterattack, as long as they grab the Tushan, their condescending momentum will be controlled by the Xixia people. Therefore, if you want to defend this fort, you must rebuild the fort and build it on the west side of Tushan. In addition, the Tushan River veins are developed, and it will become the Iron Gate of Qingzhou in the future.
"Duke Cai, the lower officials know that they are also preparing to send people to escort prisoners of war to build this fort, and are about to report to Mr. Cai."
"That's good, but Wang Ju, your personality really needs to be changed."
"Haha, Mr. Cai, don't worry. If you do things under Mr. Cai, your subordinates will naturally dare to let go. But if you change to other officials, your subordinates would rather not act than let go."
Cai Ting was speechless by Wang Ju. He didn't know whether he was praising him or despising him. He said laughably: "Then go and arrange it."
In short, he still admires Wang Ju very much. First, the age gap. Wang Ju wants to grow up for a long time and has little conflict with him. Second, on the eve of the past, Wang Ju temporarily commanded and under his dispatch, several cavalrymen rushed towards Li Liangzuo in time, which made a great victory, which made Cai Ting very grateful. Otherwise, if he dragged on, he would not think about it if he lost a crushing defeat.
Wang Ju went down to make arrangements.
The sun had already risen, but most of the people from all over the army were sleeping soundly.
From the day before yesterday, everyone was mobilizing their way, and the officers and soldiers of Huachi County were even more miserable. The day before yesterday was mobilized and fought again at night. Then the bloody battle the night before yesterday, the pursuit and arrest of the day yesterday did not stop until the third hour.
At that time, everyone was very motivated and didn’t feel sleepy. As soon as they fell down, they couldn’t get up. Wang Ju, including him, had just woken up.
Zhang Feng walked over and said, "Zi'an, what else can you do?"
His current shallow attack tactics have not yet been formed, including Wang Ju.
However, the two of them have similar ideas. Once they have soldiers, at least they cannot use generals like Ge Huaimin. The soldiers must be able to take advantage of them. They are just shallow attacks, and they still cannot play without generals or soldiers.
The second is a developed intelligence system, especially the scouts should be paid attention to, so that the enemy can advance and we retreat, and the enemy can retreat.
The third is to have a safe rear, so that it will be safe when you return. For example, if you want a safe rear, you must seize the Xinjiang Basin Fort.
But the soil for the shallow attack is still insufficient, and the overall soldiers of the Song Dynasty are still cowardly and overwhelmed. Even if Wang Ju doesn't open his golden finger, no one knows who will be generals. However, the scouts can be trained slowly. Although the requirements are strict, they are not as strict as the requirements for the main generals. The safety rear of the back is even more difficult. If you don't need to compare other roads, just use Huanqing Road to take the Xinjiang Ball Fort. In the future, the enemy will not be able to harass the northern part of Qingzhou. However, from above Huai'an Town, there are loopholes to be exploited. If you want to have a safe rear of Huanqing Road, you must take down Qinggang Gorge and other villages one by one. Even if Xixia occupied Hengshan, it would not be able to cause serious harm to Huanqing Road.
The goal was too far, so he could only take it step by step. Anyway, the capture of the Xinjiang Ball Fort was in line with Zhang Feng's idea and he also liked it very much.
"Brother, it's a pity that it's Mr. Cai. If the two grandsons are here, I wouldn't dare to do this."
"If those two grandsons are here, Zi'an, do you still want to achieve such a great victory?"
"Hahaha, but I finally fell to the ground with a stone." Wang Ju said with relief.
Since he came to Huachi last summer, he has been planning this battle. It was finally time to find out the truth and did not disappoint him.
"If you achieve such two or three great victories, Xixia may be completely defeated."
"Brother Zhifu, you are wrong to think of you like this. Xixia is resilient. Unless you continue to achieve such great victories within more than ten years, then Xixia will end. Otherwise, even if you can achieve such great victories two or three times, give them time to recover, and if your scars heal in a few years, they will forget the pain, and they will continue to come. Zhifu still remembers how Li Jiqian died? Tubo beat Xixia so badly, but what is the result now? Where is the Tubo tribe of Liugu tribe? On the contrary, the Xixia power extended to Xijun City, where is the old nest of Tubo."
“What a strange country.”
"It's not surprising. First, it's good luck, and second, the surrounding countries are not good at helping them, so they can give them time to recover, including our Song Dynasty. If we don't do it well, there will be ministers agreeing to continue giving Xixia's gifts to them quickly recover."
The victor continued to spend money on the invaders to buy peace, which was strange, but it did have a market in the Song Dynasty.
"Not this year, Zi'an has written that memorial and brought it to the capital by Eunuch Huang."
"God knows, maybe, maybe not," Wang Ju said. It's really hard to say.
"Zi'an, don't know which guild continues to be weak?"
This duke does not refer to ordinary ministers, but to the bosses of the two governments. Even ordinary masters of the two governments cannot be counted. There are only four people, Han Qi, Zeng Gongliang, Ouyang Xiu, and Wen Yanbo.
"Brother Zhifu, guess which man it will be?" (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
