The most powerful fool system

　After listening to the messenger's report, Li Qianshun was a little surprised and puzzled.

　In fact, Li Qianshun secretly felt that most of Xu Feng's remarks were false.

　"Yes, Your Majesty, that's what the Song Emperor said.

　He said that after seven days, the army would be rewarded and leave. "

　"Seven days? It will pass soon, so wait and see."

　"However, an order was sent to Zhuo Luo and Nan and Xishou Baotai, the two major military commanders, to make him take strict precautions."

　Afterwards, Li Qianshun still gave orders to the two Xixia military commanders closest to Fengxiang Mansion to strengthen their defenses.

　"Your Majesty, are you worried that the Song Emperor deliberately lied to us?"

　A courtier of Xixia asked.

　"I don't know, it's possible.

　The emperor of Song had never been here before, and this time something was wrong. In short, there is nothing wrong with being careful. "

　Li Qianshun said in a deep voice.

Chapter 324

　324 Attacking Summer Begins

　[Please bookmark and subscribe. 】

　A week passed quickly.

　In the past week, Li Gang has mobilized a large amount of food and grass from the Northern Song Dynasty and transported it to Fengxiang Mansion.

　At the same time, the entire Song army on the northwest side also received orders to maintain a state of combat readiness.

　At this time, the Song army on the entire Northwest Third Road added up to more than 30.

　But this time, the army that Xu Feng was counting on to attack Xixia was his new 30 new army, and the [-] Song army was just auxiliary.

　During these seven days, Xu Feng, as the emperor of the Song Dynasty, officially implemented the military merit system among the Song army, imitating the military merit system of the Great Qin Dynasty.

　Xu Feng used this to elevate the status of generals and soldiers in the Northern Song Dynasty, and intensified the courage of the Song army to fight.

　The core of the military merit system, for soldiers, killing the enemy on the battlefield, in addition to harvesting fields, gold and silver rewards after the war, they can also get honor.

　For example, veterans don't have to pay homage to officials, and they can even enjoy tax relief and other privileges.

　Even, Xu Feng also stipulated that after the soldiers and horses in battle defeated the enemy, half of the property seized could be kept for themselves and the other half would be handed over.

　This is tantamount to another reward for these Song Army soldiers.

　As long as you can win the battle, you can make a fortune, and you can also add glory to your body, whether you are tempted or not.

　However, if a general makes great achievements, he can be named a marquis and a general.

　Improving the status of generals and intensifying the courage of the soldiers of the Song Army does not mean that they will be freed from the control of the court.

　They still need to be under the jurisdiction of the local officials. Xu Feng does not want to let the situation of warlord separatism in the late Tang Dynasty reappear.

　Even so, the military merit system promoted by Xu Feng immediately caused an uproar after it was spread among the Song army.

　Countless soldiers of the Song Army were overjoyed and shouted "Long Live the Holy Spirit".

　Before the start of the war, Xu Feng promoted the military merit value in order to boost the morale of the Song army.

　Then, at the end of December in the second year of Jingkang, Xu Feng formally swore an oath in Fengxiang Mansion, and immediately led [-] new troops to the north.

　At the same time, Cheng Yao and Li Gang each led a Song army to attack Xixia from other directions.

　Among them, Xu Feng's attack route was Gyeongju and the Huanzhou area. This was the place where the Xixia army captured and wreaked havoc last time.

　Li Gang is going to Fushi City in the east, mobilizing the Suide Army and Security Army there, attacking 10 horses, and launching an attack on Xixia from the Fushi City area.

　Cheng Yao gathered [-] Song troops in Longxi area on the west line, preparing to attack Xixia northward from Xizhou.

　Seven days later, when Xu Feng led the new army to go north along the Baimachuan River and captured the Qingyuan Military City on the Xixia side, it meant that the Song Army's attack on Xixia began again.

　Qingyuan Military City is a military fort of the Xixia Army on the Baimachuan side, with [-] soldiers stationed there.

　The Xixia people did not expect that the Song army would dare to take the initiative to attack them, and they were attacked by the new army and captured the Qingyuan military city.

　On the Xixia side, the Jingsai Army Commander deployed a line of defense from Leshan behind Qingyuan Military City all the way to Weizhou.

　Going north from here is also the closest route to Xingqing Mansion, the capital of Xixia.

　Similarly, the deployment of the Xixia army here is also the strictest, and the Xixia army here is also the most elite.

　The national standing army of the Xixia Army is about 10, which is divided into three parts, the guard army, the capture army, and the local army.

　Among them, the guards are also the personal guards of the Xixia Emperor, usually stationed near Xingqing Mansion, with a strength of about 2, and they are also the most elite troops of Xixia.

　The capture army, that is, Xixia's field army, has a total of about 4 people.

　However, at this time, among the [-] captured soldiers, more than [-] were on the Uighur tribe in Ganzhou to the west.

　The remaining [-] troops were distributed in the hands of the five major military commanders at the border with the Song Army in the east.

　The last is the local army, that is, the troops of the leaders of the Xixia tribes. They still participate in productive labor on weekdays. Once a war breaks out, they will gather for training.

　However, Xixia's mobilization ability is very strong. Once the battle is tense, they will recruit young and strong people from all over the country to directly join the army.

　On Xu Feng's side, Li Qing'an, a Xixia general who was in Weizhou a day later, received the news after he suddenly captured the Qingyuan military fort, and was immediately furious.

　Losing the Qingyuan military fort is tantamount to letting the Song army tear a hole directly from their defense line.

　Immediately, General Li Qing'an of Xixia sent someone to report the situation to Emperor Li Qianshun of Xixia, and at the same time mobilized Xixia troops from Weizhou to prepare to face Xu Feng's new army.

　Although the Xixia people at this time had a small number of troops, they had never confessed to the repeated attacks of the Song army in the past.

　This time, they are the same.

　Those who can take the initiative to attack, they will never fight the war of retreat.

　After all, they also have a large number of cavalry on their side, and their field combat capabilities will attack their siege and defense capabilities.

　On the contrary, it is the Song Army's side that has relatively weak field combat capabilities, and strong defense capabilities while occupying the city.

　Therefore, what the Xixia army likes most is to fight field battles with the Song army, not offensive and defensive battles.

　Just when Li Qing'an, the general of Xixia, led [-] Xixia troops, rushed over.

　Xu Feng led the new army to cross the Qingyuan Military Fort, arrived at Leshan, and once again captured a large village on the Xixia side, Jingwa Village.

　"Well, the terrain here is good. It's quite suitable to fight the Xixia army here."

　Xu Feng nodded slightly after observing the terrain on Jingwa village.

　Immediately, Xu Feng decided to fight the Xixia army here, because he counted the time, it has been three days, and the Xixia army should have arrived.

　"Xiang Yu, you led [-] cavalry to lurk in the western mountain forest, which is full of mountains and forests, and it is not suitable for the Xixia army to discover.

　When you see our side giving way, lead the army out from this mountain pass in the west.

　At that time, we should be in a decisive battle with the Xixia Army.

　The cavalry you lead is our strange army, and when the time comes, we will catch the Xixia army by surprise. "

　Xu Feng dispatched Xiang Yu and the [-] cavalry of the new army ahead of time. What he wanted to do this time was not to defeat the Xixia army, but to eat all the Xixia army that came.

　However, because the Xixia Army is also mostly cavalry, it is too easy for them to escape.

　Therefore, Xu Feng had to arrange Xiang Yu in advance to cut off their retreat.

　"Lu An, you lead [-] infantry and set off at night to guard the road to the north.

　After our side defeats the Xixia Army, most of them will flee north here.

　When the time comes, you will ambush here and try to keep all the fleeing Xixia troops behind. "

　Immediately, Xu Feng gave another order to a general of the Song Army beside him.

　"Yes, Your Majesty!"

　"Zhen will lead the rest of the troops and wait for the Xixia army to arrive in this village."

　This time, Xu Feng led a new army of [-] to attack. It can be said that the army is strong and strong, which can let him do a big job.

　It is no longer necessary to deal with the cavalry of the Jin army like the Zhending Mansion last time. The troops are stretched.

　And on Xu Feng's side, after entering the Xixia territory from Baimachuan, Li Gang and Cheng Yao also led the attack on the Xixia army on the east and west lines.

　In January of the third year of Jingkang, Emperor Li Ganshun of Xixia received urgent reports from the three major army divisions in Xingqing Mansion one after another.

　It was all news that Song Jun had launched an attack on them.

　Fortunately, because Li Qianshun had already issued an order to prepare for war to the five major military commanders.

　Therefore, when the Song Army's offensive began, the Xixia people quickly discovered and responded.

　Rumble!

　Three thousand Xixia cavalry came galloping, and Xixia general Li Qing'an led [-] Xixia troops from Weizhou to Leshan.

　Soon, the scout of the Xixia people called Li Qing'an about the location of the Song army.

　Then, Li Qing'an rushed over non-stop, bringing only three thousand cavalry.

　The other more than 7000 Western Xia army infantry could not keep up with the speed of the cavalry and were still marching behind.

　Among them, the [-] Xixia soldiers led by Li Qing'an were stroked, and the [-] cavalry were their field army, which was extremely powerful.

　The remaining [-] infantry were summoned by their local army.

　That's right, Li Qing'an, the general of Xixia, was so crazy that he dared to fight with only [-] Xixia troops.

　At this time, he didn't even know how many soldiers and horses the Song Army had attacked this time.

　According to the reports from their scouts, it is only said that the Song army has a large number of troops, at least more than 5.

　However, Li Qing'an really didn't care about the [-] Song army.

　You know, Li Qing'an led the Xixia Army and the Song Army to fight for more than ten years, and he lost count of the Song Army who was defeated by him.

　At his peak, he once led [-] Xixia troops to defeat [-] Song troops, turning the tide of the battle.

　Therefore, in Li Qing'an's memory, he never paid much attention to Song Jun.

　Because of this, he dared to lead the [-] Xixia army to kill without knowing the details of the Song army.

　Because, Li Qing'an felt that if he led [-] Xixia troops, even if the [-] Song troops came from the opposite side, he would still be able to fight.

　"My lord, Jingwa village is ahead, and it has been captured by the Song army now."

　When Li Qing'an was about to reach Jingwa Village, their scouts rushed over to show them the way.

　"It's a pity that after the Song Army captured Jingwa Village, they sent a large number of cavalry to drive us away.

　We only had a dozen or so cavalry, and retreated after helplessness, unable to find out the specific size of the Song Army. "

　The scout leader of the Xixia army sighed and said to Li Qing'an.

　"It doesn't matter, no matter how many Song Jun come this time.

　Since they dared to break the agreement and take the initiative to attack us, I would have let them come and stay as many as possible, and none of them would even try to escape. "

　Li Qingan said in a deep voice with cold eyes.

　Rumble!

　Li Qing'an led three thousand Xixia cavalry, and soon appeared outside Jingwa village, galloping outside the village.

　On the other side of the village, behind the low earthen wall, teams of Song army archers could be seen standing by.

　Even the Song army built a temporary wooden tower with archers stationed on it.

　"Song Dog, come out to fight, dare to attack us, court death!"

　Li Qing'an shouted outside the village.

　Although Li Qing'an was very arrogant, he did not dare to easily lead the Xixia cavalry into such a village.

　In such a village terrain, their cavalry can only be reduced to being killed.

　At this time, Xu Feng was standing in the village, looking at the Xixia army outside, showing a sneer.

　"Why are there so many Xixia troops here?"

　Soon, Xu Feng's face darkened.
