"General Yue, has he made up his mind?"
"There was some hesitation before. After all, our primary goal is to occupy a good horse breeding land, and outside the river is actually the best choice.
But now that the Mongolian army has appeared on the other side of the river, whether it is their bluff or not, there is no need for us to cross the river to fight with them at this time.
Set your sights on the southwest first, then enter beyond the river! "
"The general has the power to make arbitrary decisions when the opportunity arises. Since he has made a decision, we naturally respect it." Zhao Kai first expressed his agreement, and then continued to ask, "I'm really not worried that the Mongolian tribe is bluffing..."
"It doesn't matter." At this time, Yue Fei shook his head gently.
And in a large tent hundreds of miles away, there was also a person shaking his head slightly and saying the same words as Yue Fei.
"It doesn't matter whether we are bluffing or not. There are not that many cities on this land. This is the place where Xixia's horses are raised, and it is also the place where we have control.
A certain family had soldiers and horses appear outside the river just to tell Yue Fei that if I wait and think, I can rush over immediately, and it doesn't matter whether the rear is calm or not.
Now I, Mongolia, and the Song Dynasty under Yue Fei's command are both snipe and clam at odds with each other. If we don't want a certain fisherman to benefit, we must first get rid of all the fishermen. "
As Hebule said these words, many of the heirs around him were also silent, as if they still didn't quite understand the meaning of their father's words.
"Father said that Xixia is a fisherman..."
"Fart!" A wine cup was thrown directly on the head of Hu Tuqi who had just spoken, almost beating him to a bloody head.
"What qualifications does this little Xixia have to say they are fishermen?" Hebule snorted coldly, and then stopped playing riddles with them, "Then Xixia is just a piece of meat on the chopping board now, waiting for us to kill them carve up.
Where is the qualification to compete?
It was lucky to be able to protect himself. If he dared to show up at this time, I'm afraid they would be the first to be cleared out.
The fisherman I am talking about is the remnant of the Liao Kingdom who has not yet appeared, and the Jin man who planned all this! "
After hearing these words, Hebule's sons looked at each other in shock.
"Is it possible that the Jin man wants to frame us?"
"If you say that, it would be an injustice to them, but these Jin people know what we and the Song Dynasty need.
They just know what they want!
In order to conquer Xixia, the Song army cut off their Qingbaiyan trade routes, causing the people's livelihood in Xixia to almost collapse.
The Liao and Jin sides also followed suit and directly cut off the Song people's source of war horses, and they had no suitable land to raise horses.
Even if they worked hard to get some war horses, in the end they could only use one less horse.
In this case, if he wants to counterattack, they must have suitable land to raise horses. Compared with the Sixteenth State of Yanyun, the northern border of Xixia is the most suitable.
We also need what Xixia has in hand.
We need stronger armor, sharper weapons, large siege equipment, heavier land, and slaves.
He needs all the good things that Xixia has in his hands now, but he doesn't need war horses and horse breeding land. "
"In this case, it's better if we each get what we need, and let all the Jin man's ideas come to nothing!" Hebule's third son, Mongolia, suddenly bald and black, laughed and said.
As a result, he smiled and found that the brothers and his father around him looked at him like a fool.
Slowly, he realized that he had just said something stupid.
"You idiot, how can this thing be so simple? If we attack Xixia, we must enter from the north. The Song people can only enter from the south when entering Xixia.
In this way, the Song people occupy the southwest, and we occupy the northeast.
Although it seemed that the land of Xixia was divided up for a while, everything we wanted was in the southwest, and what the Song people wanted was at our feet.
This would be interesting.
Let’s not talk about whether we can continue to cooperate with them. Even if we can, who can rest assured that we will be surrounded by the other party?
I heard that this time the Song army came with the first general of the Song Dynasty, Yue Fei, who was Zhao Huan'er's confidant general.
If this is the case, then he must be able to understand what I mean.
If we don’t want us to get nothing in the end, it’s better to consolidate the place we already have and clear out the people who are disrupting the situation, and then we will fight to the death. "
"The Song people are really capable... My father is the most powerful warrior and wisest man in Mongolia. How can he, Yue Fei, be as good as his father!"
Although the suddenly bald and black-bald Mongolian is not very smart, his mouth is very good at coaxing people.
But at this time, Hebule really didn't have time to listen to his nonsense, so he threw a wine bottle out again to shut him up.
"Starting from today, tell everyone that we will slaughter the city and wipe out every household. Before our army starts the war, we must ensure the safety of the rear. We would rather kill everyone than leave any trouble for ourselves!
You can understand! "
"I'll understand later!" With a loud roar, everyone immediately filed out.
A new round of purges began in the north, and this time their purges became more orderly. Many tribesmen and people in Xixia had completely lost their way to survive under this purge.
On the other side of the river, south of the river, Yue Fei also started his own arrangements.
At this time, Yue Fei had led the Tabai Army and Beiwei Army directly in a certain direction, and his army was now completely dispersed.
All the news can only be gathered and delivered by Dong Xian's Tabai Army.
"General Niu Gao has bypassed the land of Xingqing and raided the defense line of the river. The defender was killed by General Niu Gao. The Xixia army was defeated and entered Xingqing Mansion. However, the Mongolian army only had a few roving horses and has not been seen yet. A real army.”
"Tell Niu Gao, don't take it lightly. No matter on the other side or above the river, our enemies may not be only Mongolia."
"Zhang Xian used encirclement points to call for reinforcements. He and Wang Jun led the front army to directly surround the Xingqing Prefecture's administrative center and besiege it.
Fu Xuan and Fu Qing fought along the east and west sides of the river. They broke into the city and attacked the stronghold along the way, and also defeated the reinforcements along the way.
Yao Zheng, on the other hand, held on to the danger and fought hard to hold back the Xixia cavalry coming from the southeast. He also allowed the two generals Kou Cheng and Yang Zaixing to bypass them and enter the rear.
Now the two generals have defeated several troops and are about to complete the encirclement. "
"Yao Zheng defended and Kou Cheng retreated. There was no problem for these two people. They separated Yang Zaixing and let him continue to go deeper. He used war to support the war and recruited troops on the spot. He attacked the edge of Dasheng Prefecture as soon as possible to prevent the Jin people from taking direct action. Occupy the land of the Loop!"
It is said that the Yellow River has only one set of disadvantages, and this set is the Loop. But in fact, there are many Loops, the most famous of which are the Yellow River Loop and the Liaohe Loop.
What Zhao Huan is interested in is the Yellow River Loop that flows east of Neihelan Mountain and south of Langshan and Daqing Mountains.
That is to say, the two counties of Yunzhong and Jiuyuan back then were transferred to Bingzhou by Zhao Huan with a wave of his hand.
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty placed the surrendered Turks here to raise horses for the Tang Dynasty.
After that, this place had nothing to do with Song anymore.
As for the Liao River Hetao, it is the Xilamulun River and Laoha River basins, as well as the confluence of the East Liao River and West Liao River behind the Jin people's army.
That place was the Great Wall of Yan during the Warring States Period, as well as the Raole Dudufu and Songmo Dudufu during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It has always been an important place for horse herding.
But it has nothing to do with them here.
In fact, in terms of war horses alone, the Liao River Loop is far better than the Yellow River Loop, but the biggest advantage of the Yellow River Loop is that even though the river water is often violent now, it is still a high-quality farming land.
It is also the most fertile grain-producing land in Xixia today.
But this place is close to Youzhou, or to the Sixteenth State of Yanyun in the hands of the Jin State. If you are not careful, it is easy for the Jin people to take advantage of it.
Whether it was destruction or occupation, it was not the result that Yue Fei wanted.
Yang Zaixing doesn't have many soldiers under his command, but he is extremely mobile. Coupled with his increasingly abnormal strength, he can completely mess up this place and then take precautions for a while.
You can join Kou Cheng after he takes care of the rear.
At this time, the Tabai Army scout continued to speak.
"General Liang Xing has defeated the enemy. He divided his subordinates into pieces and let the Xixia reinforcements enter the Xingqing Mansion.
Later, on the eve of the battle between the reinforcements and General Zhang Xian, they cut off the grain roads, burned the grain, grass and baggage, and then continued to harass.
Finally, after the opponent's morale declined, he and Wang Jun attacked him from front to back and completely defeated him, killing thousands of enemies and surrendering thousands of troops. "
"Liang Xing's soldiers and horses are newly recruited rebels from the Taihang Mountains. They have not yet completed their training, but this style of play is indeed good.
Zhang Xianji made the first contribution, followed by Liang Xing. He didn't have the brains to think of this method. "
"General Xu Qing has already invaded the territory of the Xiangqing Army. The vanguard Meng Bangjie fought with the retreating Xixia reinforcements without a clear outcome. However, after the Xiangqing Army joined, Meng Bangjie was unable to catch the enemy. He was already fighting and began to retreat."
"Xu Qing is leading an army for the first time. He is not such a fool. Meng Bangjie does not have the ability to be a vanguard, and the relationship with him is not good.
Xu Qing would not leave Pang Rong and Li Dao unused and use Meng Bangjie.
He is luring the enemy deeper, so there is no need to worry about him. "
"General Wang Gui has now captured the Great Wall of Xiping Prefecture. After our army entered through the gap, he took over the battlefield and continued to struggle with the Xixia army in the Great Wall area. There has been no victory or defeat between the two sides."
"Well..." Yue Fei nodded slightly, looked at Zhao Kai and explained, "Wang Gui is cautious by nature, and he is continuing to buy time for our army by doing this.
Moreover, the military order given to him is to look around and supervise the battle and provide support. He does not need to capture any cities, and I will do the rest. "
Zhao Kai nodded when he heard this, but he was still a little worried.
"It goes without saying that General Wang Gui's ability is great, but now General Wang Gui's heart...does the general need to send someone from the court to appease him?"
Zhao Kai was very careful in what he said, but he still meant that he was a little worried about him. After all, what happened to Wang Gui made everyone in the Song Dynasty not know what to say.
"No need!" Yue Fei said categorically, "He is Wang Gui, the deputy commander of my Yue Family Army, he knows what he should do!
Saying nothing at this time is the best arrangement for him. He is Wang Gui, and he was able to persevere as usual when we were fighting to the death between the Song Dynasty and the Jin people.
Not to mention now! "
