This time, Workshop City emptied its inventory and shipped all of them to the war zone.

After so many years, the daily training of soldiers really doesn't take much, and the new army can't be selected, too much inventory has accumulated in the workshop city...~

Even though it was a plain, the chariots couldn't move forward anymore. There were corpses everywhere, and the pits blasted by gunpowder bombs were everywhere, which was no longer suitable for chariots to advance.

However, even so, the cavalry of the Liaoxia coalition army still couldn't resist the battle formation of the three teams of tiger squatting cannons, portable crossbows, and muskets.

After a row of tiger squatting guns were fired, the portable crossbow followed up, quickly fired gunpowder shells, and then the musketeers made up for it...~

In this way, the space of the Liaoxia coalition forces was gradually compressed.

In the end, nearly 10,000+ Liaoxia Allied Forces squeezed into Xin County, encircled by three sides...~

Dingxiang has been captured and has become the pre-war headquarters.

Who would have thought that the open duel between Da Song and Liao Xia would end in Da Song's victory.

On the contrary, it was the offensive and defensive battle, in which the most sacrifices were made.

"Seventeen thousand casualties, all of them are soldiers of the new army..."

Zhao Xi was really distressed.Every soldier of the new army, placed in the barracks of the old forbidden army, is a hero like ten enemies...

"Your Majesty, the loss of more than [-]% is already the smallest battle loss ratio in the history of the Great War!"

Wen Yanbo felt that the officials were hypocritical.

He didn't check the records of the officials leading the battle. When did the battle damage exceed [-]%?

At the beginning of the Western Expedition, it was still a major battle dominated by the Western Army, and the battle damage was also controlled within [-]%.

It is human nature to win Long and look forward to Shu, and it is the embodiment of ambition.Not to mention that Guochao has no ambitions, it's just that their strength limits their delusions, and the reality forces them to muddle through time and time again... There is no courtier who does not want to make a contribution that will last forever during his tenure.

Just like now, to win such a large-scale battle, the ministers of the Zhengshitang will inevitably have ambitions!

"Your Majesty, I thought that I should take the power of a great victory and take Yunzhou directly! Just like your Majesty's poem said: It is better to chase the poor with the remaining courage!"

Han Qi was really a little excited.This battle should be regarded as a real victory planned by the imperial court. It truly reflects the great victory of civil servants strategizing, generals fighting at the front, and a reasonable combination of civil and military.

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal. The imperial court should immediately issue an order to order the four armies on the front line to join forces and cross Yanmen to take Yunzhou directly."

"Your Majesty, the fall of Yanmen and the entry of the Liaoxia coalition forces into the pass will inevitably lead to the emptiness of Yunzhou City's defenses. Time is running out, and the opportunity is fleeting. The army should quickly take Yunzhou before the Liaoxia court responds...~"

Seeing Wen Yanbo being so excited... finally inspired the ambitions of the husbands.

"Your Majesty, this matter is feasible!"

Even Fu Bi, who is mature and prudent, thinks he should do this.

Zhao Xi regretted that he had plagiarized. If he had known that a big victory would make the princes like this, he didn't have to pretend to be drunk and become a half-poem emperor.

Originally, Zhao Xi was worried that his husbands would object, so he plagiarized poems during the banquet, hoping to show his heart and let them experience it.Today, it seems that I think too much.

At this time in Dingxiang City, the frontline headquarters...

"Guo Shuai, your East Route Army took Dingxiang, and you suffered serious damage. Di Shuai's main force faced the enemy head-on. Only our West Route Army did not have much success in this battle. The siege of Xinxian County was carried out by our West Route Army. received!"

It's not that they are warlike and not good at fighting. In this war, their West Route Army did not make as much contribution as the Central and East Route Army.

Needless to say, the middle road was facing the Liaoxia Allied Forces head-on, but the Eastern Route Army also captured Dingxiang City.

Although the West Route Army also participated in the recovery of Yanmen Pass, after all, there were Yanmen defenders mixed in, and they won the victory with the foreshadowing reserved by the Yanmen defenders when they retreated from Yanmen Pass, which made Chong E feel very uncomfortable.

"The seed is right, stop talking nonsense! Less than [-]% of the casualties, you say this is serious damage? Besides, it was our East Route Army that took Dingxiang, which shows that our East Route Army has experience in firearms siege warfare For the sake of the soldiers, the Eastern Route Army's attack on Xin County is justified!"

Guo Kui did not show weakness, who would have too much credit?The Liaoxia coalition forces have been besieged in the isolated city of Xin County, and everyone knows that it will not be difficult to take it down.

Your Majesty should have expected this to happen, right?Di Qing watched the generals already arguing over who should be the main force to attack the city, and then thought about the secret decree given by His Majesty when he was leaving...~

"We will not attack Xin County!"

"Di Shuai, what does this mean? Are all 10,000+ troops besieging the city here?"

Zhong E is very surprised what Di Qing said, Di Qing is not a conservative general, how could...

You, Di Hanchen, have reached the pinnacle of military generals, and you have also retired. You no longer need credit, and you no longer need rewards from the court, and you have nothing to reward, but the soldiers need it!

Seeing E Na's expression, Di Qing knew he was misunderstood.

"Your Highness, arrange a battle?"

"Let Di Shuai decide!"

Di Qing and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were so humble that they stunned all the generals... Isn't it just a siege battle, what kind of battle is they planning?

"Listen to orders from Zhong'e: lead the West Route Army to cross Yanmen Pass and head east, the combat mission... Yingzhou City, and strengthen the defense line to prevent the Liao Army from counterattacking! Go north while ensuring a strong defense line, and join forces with the Central Route Army in Yunzhou... "

"Guo Kui listened to the order: Lead the East Route Army to cross the Yanmen Pass and go westward, attack Shuozhou in the north, conquer Wuzhou in the south, and join forces with the reinforcements of Linfu all the way westward, and establish a defensive line on the west to prevent Xixia from counterattacking!"

"Listen to orders: lead the troops out of Yanmen to the west, under the restraint of Guo Kui, and complete the combat mission with the East Route Army."

"Di Qing listened to the order: Set up a line of defense with chariots and landmines, trap the Liaoxia coalition forces in Xin County, leave a certain amount of troops to garrison Dingxiang, besiege the Liao Xia coalition forces in Xin County, and lead most of the Central Route Army out of Yanmen to the north. Combat missions: Take Yunzhou!"

I thought the court would quarrel for a few days before deciding whether to attack Yunzhou.This is also the reason why everyone is scrambling to attack Xin County.

The Liaoxia coalition army entered Yanmen, everyone knew that Yunzhou was empty, but no one was sure whether the imperial court would issue a combat order. Unexpectedly, His Majesty had a secret order!

"Everyone, when the situation of encirclement and suppression was formed, a secret decree had arrived at the Lin Mansion, and General Zhe Jimin led his army eastward..."

Chapter 540 Big Difference

It is difficult for chariots to get out of Yanmen Pass, and the track is broken at Xin County. As a new army that relies heavily on armaments, going out to fight is the real test.

It can be seen from this two-way advance from east to west that there is a big difference between the new army with chariots and the new army without chariots in the battle with the cavalry of the Liaoxia coalition army.

Most of the casualties of the soldiers came from the east and the west.

Zhao Xi also explained in the secret decree with Di Qing that once the damage on the east and west routes exceeds [-]%, the battle to regain Yunzhou will be postponed indefinitely...

As for the current battle damage, I hope that the original encirclement and suppression was not a battle of trapped beasts by the Liaoxia coalition forces, and the intensity of the combat power is the real combat power...~Zhao Xi is not sure.

Therefore, he was more worried about the battle of the army going out of customs than the battle of Dingxiang and Xinxian in the previous period...

Another point, Mr. Zhengshitang also took into consideration, that is, the rewards before the army left the customs... I was worried about repeating Taizong's mistakes.

The carriage transporting the military supplies in Workshop City also brought the rewards for the victory of this encirclement and suppression battle.

"Minister Wen, the Privy Council ordered the transfer of new troops from Jiangnan and Chengdu to go north. Chengdu will assist in the defense of Qinzhou and Huanqing, and Jiangnan Road will assist in the defense of Hebei Road..."
