There are also people who are not busy, such as Di Qing, Wen Yanbo, Chong Er and others.Even Wang Anshi doesn't need to be busy.

Several veterans are still staring at the sand table...~

"Officials, the veteran thought that the attack point of the Northern Liao Dynasty would definitely be the palace tent. The veteran suggested that the palace tent should be retreated a hundred miles..."

Several veteran ministers muttered for a long time, and both civil and military officials unanimously approved the official analysis.

This means that officials will be at risk.

Recovering Yanyun was indeed the obsession of the Song Dynasty, but even if the army attacked the Shangjing Road in Beiliao and wiped out hundreds of thousands of troops in Beiliao, as long as the officials made any mistakes, it would be equivalent to defeat.

In other words, as long as Beiliao really attacks the palace tent and penetrates the Song Dynasty's defense line, causing the palace tent to be in danger, it will definitely affect the entire battle situation, and there may even be a possibility of overall defeat.

Therefore, there must be no signs of success in Beiliao's strategy of attacking the palace accounts.

"Back off?"

Zhao Xi was taken aback by Wang Anshi's suggestion.How could it be possible to retreat at this time?

"Everyone, I know that you are worried that once Beiliao really breaks through the defense line of the palace tent, it may lead to a loss of morale on the entire battlefield, leading to a rout, or the possibility of repeating the battle of Gaoliang River."

"But think about it again, everyone. Since I personally marched to boost morale, but now I retreat early. When the Northern Liao attack begins, what will happen to the morale of the soldiers?"

"I thought that by then, if one point was hit, it would lead to chaos across the board."

"So, I think that at this time, the palace tent should not be retreated, but should be advanced fifty li to give Beiliao hope."

In Zhao Xi's view, since Beiliao had released the bait to send Yan Yun unconditionally, the side should cooperate to urge Beiliao to fight according to the tactics envisioned by the imperial court.

The so-called know yourself, know your enemy, and win a hundred battles~... Nothing fits this sentence better than knowing that the opponent has a next-step battle plan.

"But……"

The officials may be right, but the risk is too great.

"It's nothing. If we can wipe out all the vital forces in Beiliao, what if I use myself as bait?"

"Official family, absolutely!"

"The official family, even if it is a few years later after Yan Yun's recovery, the official family must not make any mistakes!"

"Officials, the old minister is a general who was born as a soldier, and he knows the general's mind. Once the Chinese army is under heavy siege, the entire army's morale will be shattered! Don't do it, officials!"

"Once the Chinese army falls into a tight siege, it means that it will lose its soul, and the entire army will be at a loss, and the whole line will collapse! Officials must not."

Everything was in chaos, even the busy officials and workers stopped, and they all gathered around, with an expression of admonishing the officials...

have to!It seems that it is really impossible for me to do things that use my body as bait.

In other words, Zhao Xi said, is it possible to make such a hasty decision?

In the Song Dynasty, it was really impossible for the king to go directly to the battlefield like Beiliao.

"Everyone, what I mean is that the palace tent is fifty miles forward, and the king's flag is used as bait... How is it possible?"

"As for the question of the morale of the army... before the plan is implemented, the entire plan must be communicated to the soldiers above the ranks."

"Of course, this military order must be conveyed step by step and timed."

"Before the Beiliao attack on the palace tent, inform the commanders of the various armies that the Beiliao attack has begun. It will be conveyed to the first level. When the various armies are preparing to encircle and suppress, or when the defense line of the palace tent may be penetrated, it will be conveyed to the team. Even every soldier..."

Chapter 944 Unexpected Judgment

The Hedong army sent troops, whether to go north from Yunzhou or from Niangziguan to the east, there is a question of order, which is related to whether the expected battle can be successful...

"Officials, how do we prevent the news of Yunzhou sending troops from spreading to the battlefield? Once the news of Yunzhou sending troops comes, even if Beiliao intends to attack, it will give up, and even send Yanyun respectfully, and retreat three hundred miles from Yanshan."

If the vital force of Beiliao cannot be effectively killed, even if Beiliao retreats three hundred miles to the north of Yanshan Mountain, it will be a hidden danger.

The original plan of the imperial court was to gradually include the grasslands into the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, instead of retaining the vitality of the Northern Liao Dynasty and giving the Northern Liao Dynasty a chance to make a comeback.

Moreover, the retreat of Yanshan Mountain by the Northern Liao Dynasty for three hundred miles would only make the border of the Great Song Dynasty unstable, and the battles continued year after year.

The national policy of the Song Dynasty is to strengthen the inside and weaken the outside. If there are constant battles in the Yanshan area and Bianliang is too far away from the border, it is necessary to retain the combat power to guard the Yanshan area.

Originally, the Western Army was the strongest in the Guochao, and formed the Western Army forces in the Guochao.

After the defeat of the Northern Liao Dynasty, the borders of the Guochao will be further lengthened. Even if the army of the Guochao is rotated, it will be difficult to avoid the result of the frontier army eventually becoming powerful.

This is what the entire Song Dynasty did not want to see.

Therefore, this battle must really effectively annihilate the vital forces of the Northern Liao Dynasty, and then use economic means to allow the grassland to survive under the Song Dynasty.

If the dispatch of troops in Hedong will lead to the leakage of news, and eventually Beiliao will give up resistance, or even retreat to the north of Yanshan in advance, it will definitely become a future trouble.

If that's the case, it's better to advance step by step like this, and use the method of cannibalization to wipe out the Beiliao's combat power as much as possible.

Although the Fanqi team of Guochao now has the ability to fight deep into the grassland.However, people who are not of our race must have different intentions. The imperial court still dare not let the cavalry team go to the grassland... It may become a kite with a broken string.

Wang Anshi still couldn't change his mind, and was still wary of generals, let alone the Fanqi team.

Zhao Xi looked at Wang Anshi, but couldn't say anything, and couldn't say anything.

"Officials, at the beginning of the war, in order to level the entire front and ensure the supply of supplies, Yunzhou sent [-] troops to break through Weizhou Lingzhou."

"If the Weizhou army is ordered to go north, first cut off the information communication between the Northern Liao Xijing and the Nanjing Road...Of course, the old minister also knows that it is impossible to completely cut off, as long as the commonly used, timely and fast channels in the Northern Liao Dynasty are cut off and the information transmission is delayed, You can make a time difference."

"As long as Beiliao really sends troops, as long as the battle starts and they become entangled with each other, even if Beiliao knows the information, it will be difficult to leave the battlefield. At that time, the retreat of Beiliao will only make the battlefield defeat faster."

Di Qing expressed his opinion, just talking about tactics, without any other meaning like Wang Anshi.

Regardless of whether they are guarding generals or not, the purpose of the court is the same, which is to wipe out the vital forces of the Northern Liao Dynasty as much as possible.

In fact, Zhao Xi never thought about the complete annihilation of Beiliao.

The Khitan people grew up on war horses, and Guochao's fan cavalry team has a certain combat power, but the number is too small.

As for the auxiliary cavalry and the cavalry recruited later, Zhao Xi was really worried.

They are all things that have milk and are mothers, and they are obsessed with the grassland, so there are too many uncertain factors to release.

If they really want to be released, it is only when Beiliao is completely impossible to become a force that they can prevent them from turning around and attacking Song Dynasty.

"According to Di Shuai's tactics, let's issue an edict together!"

What Di Qing said is indeed a good solution.

The Guochao arranged more cavalry than chariot soldiers in Hedong. Almost [-]% of the cavalry recruited in the later period were sent to Hedong. The purpose was to quickly pass through the east of the river in the event of an encirclement and suppression fighter...
