Chapter 871 In fact, I also made the same mistake (second more)

Chapter 880

For example, this time when the Liaoxia army marched southward, what Yelu Hongji would most like to see was a turbulent assault by the Daliao army, turning the entire North Shaanxi Road of Song Ting into a mess.

The Song army was so killed that they threw away their helmets and armor, and the Song Emperor had to bow his knees and beg Daliao for peace.

It's a pity that the ideal is full, but the reality is very skinny.After the army arrived here, it was like a starving dog that had fainted from hunger, and it was dragging and tearing around Youzhou, a hard bone that was mostly buried in the soil.

He didn't even notice that not far away, there were bones of all sizes, and even fat.Therefore, Xiao Shen, as the military supervisor, naturally began to make up his own mind.

He frequently used his responsibility as an envoy to supervise the army, and wrote letters to the court frequently, reporting the situation of the Liaoxia coalition forces without any achievements.

Of course, from time to time, some of my own subtext and private goods will be mixed in.

Gradually, as the army continued to attack Youzhou for a long time, many civil and military officials in the court became restless, especially those who had previously firmly supported Yelu and Lu Wei as commanders.

In addition, his colleagues in the court also began to exert their strength.Even at the beginning, His Majesty Yelu Hongji stood firmly on the side of his own brother.

But as time progresses slowly, the balance of trust gradually begins to tilt.

Seeing Xiao Shen's expression returned to normal, a counselor cleared his throat and analyzed in a low voice. "This time, although the envoys sent by His Majesty only brought verbal orders, maybe when the next time, what they bring is not just verbal orders, but the return of Yelu and Luwo to the capital and the appointment of the new commander-in-chief. decree."

"In my view, the only one who can be worthy of this position is Xiao Jianjun. Otherwise, I will wait for the coalition army to write a letter to report to Your Majesty that the commander is incompetent, but Master Xiao is extremely intelligent and capable of commanding the army. There was a military chaos in Ximen before, but after Master Xiao came, the army discipline was rectified, and the advance and retreat were controlled..."

Looking at these confidantes and subordinates showing their loyalty here and there, Xiao Shen's mind became more and more active.

Now that my colleagues in the capital have sent me the news that His Majesty is very dissatisfied with the achievements of Yelu and Luwo, then, instead of choosing a coach from the capital, it is really better to let myself, who is currently in the army, The military supervisor came to take on this important task.

Having made up his mind, Xiao Shen returned to the back tent and began to write letters with inkstones and pens to those colleagues who were familiar with him in Beijing. Naturally, he also talked about his thoughts on the current situation of the Liao-Xia coalition forces trapped in the city of sorrow. The disadvantages were analyzed in detail.

Of course, it is also indispensable. I wrote down my own combat thoughts and ideas, continued to contain a small number of soldiers and horses, and then sent a large army to attack the hinterland of the three states...

Thousands of eloquent words flowed out from the pen, as if a patient with severe constipation had taken laxatives, extremely happy.

Soon, a few fast horses left the Liao Army West Camp outside the city of Youzhou, and galloped towards the north, aiming directly at Shangjing of Daliao.

After Xiao Shen saw that the messengers who delivered the letter had already left, he breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a while, and summoned another confidant. "Go and look for the envoy. He must have just arrived at the camp last night, so he should still be resting and hasn't left yet."

"Then, please ask the envoy to come to our west camp before returning home. Xiao will definitely entertain you well, and there are some things that you need to discuss with the envoy."

"My lord, don't worry, the last general will go back as soon as he goes, my lord, just wait for the good news about the last general..." After the confidant nodded knowingly, he jumped on his horse and headed towards the East Day Camp where the commander was. hurried away.

Everything has been settled, and Xiao Shen breathed a sigh of relief. He must seize this opportunity tightly. Maybe, the time will come and he will have the opportunity to become a powerful minister of the Liao Dynasty, right now, right in front of him.

"They finally agreed?" Ren Duo Zongbao stood up a little overjoyed, and asked Pochao Xinde.

"That's right, Mr. Xiao finally persuaded His Highness the Prince, but tomorrow, His Excellency needs to explain to His Highness the Prince in person at the military meeting, and he can leave only after His Highness issues the military order." Po Chao Xinde nodded with relief, Showed a relaxed smile.

"Then I'm much more at ease, as long as I can, the old man just happened to go to see how the situation in the east is?" Ren Duo Zongbao clapped his fists and took a deep breath.

"I have already lost Yinzhou. If I lose Shizhou again, the situation in the southeast of Great Xia will be too dangerous."

"Originally, I thought that when the soldiers and horses of Daliao arrived in the three states, they would be as powerful as a broken bamboo, but who would have imagined that after nearly a month, the state of Youzhou controlled by the people of Song Dynasty is still as safe as Mount Tai, but it is my big brother. Not only did Xia's offensive suffer setbacks one after another, but they also lost Yinzhou, and even more..." Having said this, Pochao Xinde glanced at Renduo Zongbao, unable to continue.

Ren Duo Zongbao's complexion is not looking good, yes, no one thought that it would turn into such an embarrassing situation. The Liao-Xia coalition army, which has a stable advantage in military strength, has not been able to open up the situation in the past few months. .

On the contrary, the Song army, which was weak in strength, frequently won one victory after another. Even if these victories were despicable sneak attacks, it was the Song State that took the initiative in the war after all.

"Now, the supply of supplies in the court has become somewhat insufficient. If the war situation continues to be delayed like this, it will not be a good thing for me, Daxia."

"But now, how can we break the deadlock?" Ren Duo Zongbao raised his hands and rubbed his face, and said with a very depressed wry smile.

It's not that I haven't thought of a way, but the problem is that I led an army of [-] to take back Yanzhou, but I was blocked at the new city built in front of Yanzhou.

That fortified new city made it difficult for Daxia's last elite to advance. Coupled with a series of actions by the Song Army's partial divisions in the hinterland of Xingqing Prefecture, they had to withdraw their troops and return to the division.

The only result is to accept an empty Baishi City without even a dog.For Ren Duo Zongbao, who claims to be a famous general of the Great Xia, this is definitely the biggest shame he has been in the army for decades.

Now, relying on Youzhou's tenacity, Song Guo has brought reinforcements from all walks of life, and even captured Yinzhou.It is so fucking depressing to watch helplessly that the superiority of troops formed in the early stage has turned into a stalemate.

"I'm afraid it has a lot to do with the fact that His Highness from the Liao Kingdom is too good-looking. He always feels that he commands hundreds of thousands of troops. How can a small city like Youzhou be able to block the direction of the soldiers? ."

"But the result is that the army is blocked here, and it can't attack for a long time. The more resentment you have in your heart, the harder it is to give up."

After analyzing this, Ren Duo Zongbao smiled to himself. "Actually, I have made the same mistake. If I can't stop attacking the new city and return to the Xingqing Mansion immediately, how can that little Song army's partial division find a loophole and burn, kill and loot in the hinterland of my Great Xia?" .”

"It should have been wiped out on both sides of the Yellow River by this official."

Hearing this, Po Chao Xinde couldn't help but rolled his eyes, isn't this just an afterthought?Since you know this is the result, why the hell did you go there so early.
