Chapter 624

"Don't worry, General Zhe, Wang will set off with General Zhe and rush to Hongzhou." Hearing General Zhe's words, Wang Yang nodded in agreement and answered loudly.

"It seems that we have to go on a night trip again." Zhe Keshi also accepted the order happily, and walked out of the hall with Wang Yang, before the whole army set off, he couldn't help but said with emotion.

"As long as you can get to Hongzhou and have a good rest, it's fine. After all, General Zhong's situation is not good at the moment." Wang Yang nodded.

"My dear brother, you don't have to worry too much. If it's other frontier generals, even my uncle, I'd be a little bit worried, but if it's the one who is kind of a teacher, then you don't have to." Zhe Keshi said confidently.

It's not so much his self-confidence, but his trust in Zhong Shidao, the No. 1 general of the Northwest Frontier Army.

"Although this is the case, it's better for us to rush there as soon as possible. After all, if the tens of thousands of Xixia troops who passed through Yanzhou make trouble, it will definitely cause General Zhong a big headache."

#####
In the early morning of the next day, [-] great Song cavalry had already appeared in the west of Hongzhou. Knowing the arrival of this elite cavalry, Zhong Shidao couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

In this way, the strength in his hands is at least not as dwarfed as it was before.And with the arrival of this nearly [-] Song cavalry.

Originally, some Xixia descendants who were eager to move in the camp outside Hongzhou city immediately put their minds to rest.

At dusk on the day Wang Yang and others arrived, Han Zhongyan, Mr. Han, finally led an army of [-] people and arrived at the foot of Hongzhou City.

After Han Zhongyan arrived in Hongzhou, he immediately met with Liang Yibu and other surrendered generals, and comforted them.

Nearly [-] more soldiers and horses have been stationed, and the strength of the Song Dynasty has become much more sufficient. At this moment, news has also come from Yuzhou in the north that Li Mao has surrendered the control of Yuzhou.

According to the military order before Zhong Shi Dao, the generals who were dispatched in the past dispatched two thousand soldiers and horses to accompany the tens of thousands of soldiers to Hongzhou.

In order to prevent further accidents among the soldiers, it is naturally the safest way to send these tens of thousands of soldiers to Hongzhou to join the soldiers in Hongzhou.

However, even though the Han army and the Fan army had always been the trump cards in Liang Yibu's hands and were loyal to him, his surrender to the Song Dynasty also caused many people in the army who were unwilling to vote for the Song Dynasty.

On the way to Hongzhou, the army led by Li Mao escaped 6000 to [-] people even if he restrained him more.This made the faces of the surrendered generals quite ugly.

In addition, nearly a thousand soldiers stationed in the camp outside Hongzhou also quietly dispersed. For this reason, Liang Yibu went in person to plead guilty to Han Zhongyan and Prime Minister Han.

Han Zhongyan comforted Liang Yibu. "Mr. Liang, there is no need to be like this. Those who surrendered may have had their own reasons. Let them go, as long as they no longer go against me, the Song Dynasty, not to mention that most of them are from the Han family."

"Han Xiangzhen is a man of high magnanimity, Liang is really ashamed."

"However, Prime Minister Han, it doesn't seem appropriate to let those soldiers go away like this..." Zhong Shidao narrowed his eyes and thought carefully.

"That's true, not to mention that since they have already handed over their weapons and equipment, even those who have made contributions to our Great Song Dynasty, we can't let them go away empty-handed. At that time, they will easily cause trouble."

After thinking about it for a while, Han Xiang nodded in agreement. "How about this, send someone to post a notice to the surrender camp, and let someone read it clearly, the surrender is in progress. But anyone who is willing to leave will be paid a bolt of silk, thirty catties of grain, ten catties of dried meat, and ten pounds of money." Consistently, it is enough for them to leave their lives for a period of time without any problem."

"Mr. Han is right. As long as the publicity is in place, it will not only calm the hearts of the soldiers, but also let them know the sincerity of my Song Dynasty." Wang Yang couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he gave the old driver a thumbs up. .

"Thank you, Prime Minister Han. In this way, even the surrendered soldiers who have scattered away will definitely be grateful for Prime Minister Han's merits and the benevolence of the Song Dynasty..." Liang Yibu couldn't help but stand up and sing a hymn.

With the army gathered in Hongzhou City, it was natural to think about how to deal with the [-] Xixia soldiers and horses already entrenched in the ancient city of Wuyan.

Master Zhong stroked his long beard and analyzed. "These [-] Xixia troops will definitely not be able to let them leave safely. However, although the ancient city of Wuyan is dilapidated, it is still a city after all. Even if the Xixia people are guarding against danger, we are afraid that it will be difficult to break through. When the time comes, the Xia army will come to help, and the inside should cooperate with the outside, or if there is any change in the Beiliao..."

#####
"Even if we can't take it down, we must send troops to surround it in the ancient city of Wuyan. We can't let them have a chance to make trouble. This Jianing Army Commander is already the territory of my Great Song Dynasty." Zhe Keshi also Nodded, a very natural look.

Many generals in the hall also agreed loudly, it is impossible for Da Song to spit out the meat that reaches his mouth.Therefore, a group of generals all enthusiastically challenged the battle.

And Wang Yang squatted beside Zhe Keshi and muttered for a long time, his ghostly appearance was particularly eye-catching.

Han Zhongyan's eyes subconsciously fell on these two guys, and he couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth. "General Zhe, Lord Xiao Wang, I don't know what the two of you are discussing. Could it be that the two of you already have some method to break the Xixia garrison in the ancient city of Wuyan?"

"There is no way to break the city, but there is a way to make the ancient city of Wuyan uneasy." Wang Yang stood up confidently and saluted Mr. Han Zhongyan.

"Oh? Then ask Mr. Xiao Wang to speak quickly, what kind of solution?" Han Zhongyan felt a little toothache and restless when he heard these words, as if these four words were especially destined for Mr. Xiao Wang.

Wherever this product arrives, there will be turmoil.In the past when he was in Bianliang, the capital, he went to study, which made the whole Guozijian school very disturbed.Afterwards, after he became an official, the court of the Song Dynasty also made him restless.

Well, after being thrown here, I have to say that once this guy makes a move, the whole Xixia is really in a state of restlessness.

Han Zhongyan stared blankly at Wang Yang, his expression and eyes were very strange, and he was baffled by Wang Yang who always felt very good about himself.

But Wang Yang didn't care about this, but started to raise his head triumphantly. "Everyone must know that before, His Majesty sent a batch of firearms to our Song frontier army, right?"

"This batch of firearms was originally used to defend against the enemies who invaded Huanzhou in the Great Song Dynasty. Unfortunately..." Speaking of this, Wang Yang couldn't help but shook his head regretfully.

"...So, when the army was concentrated in the Dingbian army, Wang brought the batch of firearms with him. Later, when he attacked Yanzhou, he wanted to use them, but unfortunately, he still couldn't use them. use..."

Speaking of this, Zhe Keshi added. "When we rushed over this time, those firearms had already been escorted over. With the help of these firearms, the Xixia soldiers and horses in the ancient city of Wuyan could drink a pot."
