There were tanks in the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 410 Shooting yourself in the foot
The meaning of Wang Delin's words seems to be that he also has opinions on the battle of Hua Shi Gang.

Wang Delin left.

Li Chu didn't make things difficult for him.

This is a smart man, but Li Chu is too worried.

Since he is a smart person, he will naturally not tell anything about it, and he can also naturally understand what Li Chu means by it.

It has been six or seven days here now, and I don't know where Li Jun's sailors are.

From Xiangyang to this side, the boat is sailing along the water. In later generations, Li Chu once took a boat from Hanwu to Shanghai. It took five days. This time, more than 2 people walked together. Even if the speed is a little slower, it is estimated to be fast. arrive.

The navy was probably almost there, and Li Chu was not in a hurry. The only thing that puzzled him was the imperial court.

It has been less than half a month since the Fangla incident broke out, but there has been no movement from the imperial court.

This was beyond Li Chu's expectations.

What does the imperial court mean? Is it possible that they still want to continue to dispatch the Western Army to the south of the Yangtze River to destroy Fang La as in history?

Now Song Huizong is secretly negotiating an alliance with the Jin Kingdom at sea. Historically, it was because the Western Army went south to annihilate Fang La that the Song Dynasty did not send troops in time during the war with the Liao Dynasty. When it was time to send troops, the Western Army killed many people because of the annihilation of Fang La. , lost their spirit, and the result was that the attack on the Liao Kingdom did not have a good result, and they did not earn a single benefit. Instead, the Jin Kingdom used this as an excuse not to return the sixteen states of Yanyun mentioned in the covenant.

Suddenly, Li Chu realized something.

Perhaps, the reason why this prompted the Song Dynasty to send the Western Army to destroy Fang La may be himself.

In the original history, the Fangla Uprising took place in October!
And now, it is May.

The key point is here!
Time difference, time difference!

In the original history, at this time, the Song Dynasty was still negotiating an alliance with the Jin Kingdom on the sea. Maybe it was concluded, or maybe it was still in the process of talking.The Jin Kingdom is still attacking the northeastern part of the Liao Kingdom and has not completely launched an offensive to destroy the Liao Kingdom. Even if the agreement is reached, the agreed time to send troops is not now.

So in history, the kind of thing that dragged down the Western Army due to the alliance with the Jin Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty has not happened yet.

Today's Liao Kingdom itself is extremely corrupt in the country. In addition, the Jin Kingdom is fighting against the Northeast, and all the attention is on the Northeast Jin Dynasty. Only those with a sick mind will come to war with the Song Dynasty at this time, and Xixia From March to April, the Western Army had just fought a small-scale battle with Xixia. With the help of the satellite map presented by Li Chu, Zhong Shidao fought a beautiful battle of annihilation. The Xixia general was killed again in Yan'an Mansion, and now Xixia's arrogance has been poured a lot of cold water by these few battles.

The domestic politics of Xixia is also not stable because of the war with Zhong Shidao, and there will be no war with the Song Dynasty at this time.

Today's northwest frontier region is very stable.

On the second day, after the court meeting in Tokyo City ended, Su Wang Zhao Shu immediately alerted Li Chu to the latest situation in the court.

The fact is just as Li Chu guessed. At this morning's court meeting, the imperial court has determined that Tong Guan will be appointed as the envoy of Jiang, Huai, Jing, and Zhejiang roads, and Tan Zhen will be appointed as the envoy of the two Zhejiang roads to mobilize the Imperial Army and the Imperial Guard. 15 soldiers from the Liubo and Han Dynasties in Shaanxi went south to suppress the uprising.

"Fuck."

At this time, after hearing the news, Li Chu couldn't help scolding.

What the hell is shooting himself in the foot.

If it weren't for the northwest map, the Western Army would probably still be at war with Xixia at this time, and they wouldn't be able to use their whole body to deal with this side.

He didn't know what to say at this time.

At first, I just thought about the achievements of the Western Army in foreign wars in history, and then I made the move of sending maps and telescopes, but now.

Hey.

Now he really has no one to blame!
He immediately picked up the satellite phone and told Shi Tianyi the latest news about the court's developments.

After hearing this, Shi Tianyi immediately said to Li Chu: "My lord, this matter cannot wait any longer. Although the imperial court has ordered the Western Army to go south, Ren Ling is still in Tokyo City and has not dispersed across the world, and the Western Army has also We haven't received the news yet, and if we wait any longer, the troops will be out of nowhere. The lord should immediately send out troops and raise slogans to let everyone in the world know that it is the lord who leads the benevolent and righteous troops to rescue Jiangnan, and not the imperial court's Western Army."

After ending the call with Shi Tianyi, Li Chu called Lu Junyi again and asked him to send troops immediately with his troops and proceed as originally discussed, except that he changed the appointment of the imperial court to Qilin Army. Seeing that Fang La was causing trouble to Jiangnan, he was afraid The Jiangnan Incident took the initiative to send troops to eliminate the thieves.

Finally, I called Hunjianglong Li Jun again and asked him where he was now.

Li Jun replied that he had already arrived in Jiangning.

At this time, Fang La was leading people to attack Jiangning. His people were trapped in Jiangning. Zhu Meng and his people did not allow him to cross the river from Jiangning, requiring them to go ashore as the vanguard to resist Fang La.

"Hold!"

Li Chu almost dropped the phone.

Nima's Zhu Xi.

Damn it, you have made Jiangnan like this. Before the Qilin Army came to settle the score, you came to mess with my Qilin Army first.

Still detaining the fleet of ships of my Qilin Army?

Codes.

"Save people!"

What the heck, the navy fleet is short of these sailors now, how dare you detain my people.

Li Chu immediately summoned Yang Zhi, Ding Wu, Shi Xiu, Chen Zu, Feng Yu, Li Qun and others to discuss the matter, and told them the situation in Jiangning.

"What is Chu going to do?" Yang Zhi asked Li Chu.

"Rescue!"

Yang Zhi said without saying a word: "Okay, I will listen to you."

Of the five thousand Qilin troops, Li Chu left 1000 people in the hands of Shi Xiu and Feng Yu, and asked the two of them to garrison in Haicheng County to defend the safety of the naval base.Because Wang Delin said that there will be harassment by Japanese pirates from time to time along the coast. Now that there are so many warships here, someone must take care of them.

The remaining 4000 people have all been prepared to go to Jiangning with Li Chu.

"Brother Chu, how will we fight this battle?" Ding Wu asked Li Chu.

Since you want to fight, you have to show the prestige and reputation of the Qilin Army.

Shi Tianyi just said on the phone that now the imperial court has ordered the dispatch of the Western Army to go south, and it is necessary to take advantage of the imperial court's decree to fight the actions of the Qilin Army, and the fight will be known to the world.Now also happens to be an opportunity, so I will take you, Jiang Ning.

"Go and invite Wang Zhizhi."

Li Chu said to the wind.

With the continuous construction of the naval base, Wang Delin has been running to Haicheng County for a while, and now he is in the county.The news that the Qilin army gathered suddenly could not be concealed from Wang Delin, and he rushed over immediately after getting the news.

"General, what is this?"

Li Chu said: "The imperial court's secret decree has been issued."

Wang Delin's eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise, "Could it be?"

Li Chu nodded and said: "That's it. Now our Qilin Army is on its way over. As the advance force, I still need some help from Master Zhizhi."

"Where Wang is needed, just give orders to the general."
