A simple sentence, a fact, in exchange for the imperial censor Dr. Bari Zuren burst into tears.
Bari Zuren, who no longer needed to be tied up, kept kowtowing in the direction outside the river, shouting that he was sorry for His Majesty and for Daxia.
"It's all my fault that a certain family believed the Liao people's trick and turned the reinforcements into wolves that invaded the house. It's all my fault!
If a certain family hadn't urged them to speed up their advance, they would have fought to the death with the Mongols at this time. How could they have caused His Majesty to suffer such a shame and humiliation?
The humble minister owes a debt to the ancestors of Great Xia, and bears the great trust of His Majesty! "
The wailing Bari Zuren made Yue Fei and others frown. If someone hadn't pulled this guy, he would have hit his head somewhere and killed himself.
It can be seen that this guy seems to be really sad.
Yue Fei shook his head helplessly and asked someone to take him away. He originally wanted to use Bali Zuren to appease the people of Xixia, unlike Xiao Cha Ci'a.
Then stabilize your rear.
But now seeing his appearance, Yue Fei knew that whatever he wanted him to do, he couldn't do it now.
"Go and check if this guy has any relatives. He is the imperial censor of Xixia, and he is also a member of the Xixia family. He has great prestige here.
If we had his help, it would be much easier for us in the future.
Go and inquire about it, and then ask someone to persuade you. Don’t really die in our hands. "
In the end, Yue Fei was still worried and continued to give the order. The Paris family was considered a noble of the party, and it was also a rare family of civil servants among the party.
Whether it is on missions to various parties or in governing local areas, this Barri family has extremely good methods, and naturally its prestige is also extremely high.
That's why Yue Fei and Xiao Chaqi Abu were so concerned.
However, after more than ten days passed and the soldiers who went to inquire about the news came back, Yue Fei knew the true face of this guy, and the scene was completely different...
At this time, Yue Fei put aside the matter of Bali Zuren and put all his thoughts on the last headache for him in southern Xixia.
Guazhou!
In fact, the area occupied by the Liao people at this time was still quite large, including Guazhou, Shazhou and the last Xiping Military Division!
But there is really only one Guazhou that is most important here, because Guazhou not only contains the Naxiping Military Division, but also directly blocks the roads with the Tubo tribes.
Although the Song Dynasty has been really good at cleaning up the Tubo tribes in recent years, it has made them have a long memory.
But no one can guarantee whether these guys will come to interfere with them at this critical moment.
Just in case, this battle still needs to be fought quickly.
For this reason, he specially transferred Han Zhi, who was responsible for stabilizing the situation in the rear, to his command.
Of course, thousands of Song army elites also came together.
These people are all brave people from the land of Yongliang. As one of Liu Qi's confidants, Han Zhi's abilities are naturally incomparable.
Yue Fei launched a large-scale attack on Guazhou.
With Han Zhi as the main force, he stormed the front of Guazhou, while Yue Fei took Dong Xian as the vanguard and Beiwei's army as the main force, bypassing the rear to attack the junction of Guazhou and Tubo.
But between Guazhou and Suzhou is not just a road, it is a grassland.
On this grassland, Yue Fei's plan was interrupted.
Guazhou was not originally a place of the Central Plains Dynasty. It was the land of Xirong in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the land of Yueshi and Wusun in Qin.
Later, during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it was integrated into the territory of the Han Dynasty, and then became Jiuquan County. Later, a part of it was split from Jiuquan and became Dunhuang.
Guazhou was included in Dunhuang.
After the Tang Dynasty reached its peak, it became Guazhou today. Of course, the Western Regions also became part of the Tang Dynasty.
Between Guazhou and Suzhou is the grassland where the Qiang rebellion occurred for a hundred years, together with the large grassland outside the river.
Not long after Yue Fei and Han Zhi separated their troops and set out, Yue Fei received a battle report from Han Zhi. He was defeated by a sudden appearance of the Mongolian cavalry.
Even when Han Zhi suffered heavy losses and had no choice but to retreat to Suzhou, he did not understand how this sudden appearance of the Mongolian army came in front of him.
They came and went like the wind, constantly roaming and shooting, and finally trampled his army with heavy armored cavalry horses, and then they were defeated.
As Liu Qi's confidant, Han Zhi was considered a semi-famous general. It was really embarrassing for him to get this result under such a surprise attack.
But Han Zhi still told Yue Fei what was going on here as quickly as possible, asking him to deal with it extremely carefully.
It was precisely because of this that Yue Fei changed his marching route and made a large circle, once again bypassing the possible battlefield from the northwest.
We made a circle at the border of Guazhou and then circled back to Suzhou.
When he was about to enter Suzhou, the Mongolian cavalry who went to intercept him finally revealed his appearance.
They are no different from the Jin cavalry back then, maybe more majestic, but they lack the sufficient armor and carry arrow baskets and long bows on their waists.
There are quite some rules and regulations between actions, and this kind of rules and regulations are more powerful than the Jin people in Yue Fei's eyes.
Because he does not rely on the extraordinary command of a certain general, but the effect can only be achieved through continuous training.
Looking at the menacing Mongolian army, Yue Fei decisively chose to march into the city and refused to fight with him.
When the Mongolian army arrived at the edge of Suzhou and pressed against the countless Song troops on the city wall, the leader, An Bahai, suddenly yelled and laughed crazily.
"Little Song Jun, you are as timid as a mouse, why don't you dare to come and fight me!"
Following I Bahai's words, more and more Mongolian cavalry began to taunt, making noise and endless sarcasm, as if they wanted to force Yue Fei to send troops.
Liu Qi's general Han Zhi's cheeks turned red, feeling as if he had been humiliated.
"General, the last general invites you to fight!"
"The last general invites you to fight!"
"The last general also invites you to fight!"
Han Zhi, Dong Xian, Yue Yun, and even the captains and generals behind him also stood up one by one, wanting to invite the troops to leave the city.
In the face of this passionate group of people, Yue Fei just said a word calmly.
"wait!"
He did not allow anyone to ask for a fight. He just stood on the city wall and calmly watched the Mongolian cavalry below as they continued to roam and show off their power.
This situation has not happened for a long time since Zhao Huan started to counterattack. In the past, even the Jin people dared to confront Yue Fei head-on. Now, looking at the Mongolian troops below, he couldn't even retreat.
The crowd was excited at this moment, but he didn't give any explanation. He just asked Han Zhi to stand by his side again.
"Tell me how you were defeated. Tell me everything. You have thousands of soldiers and horses under your command. They are all elites from the northwest. How could you lose in one battle?"
Han Zhi heard Yue Fei's words and the dirty words of the boy below, with an ugly expression on his face, but he still did not dare to disrespect the general's order.
"Before, we were proceeding cautiously, and scouts were sent for an additional thirty miles. There were beacon fires as we rode back and forth. But halfway through, we heard the roar of horse hooves.
The beacon fire did not appear, and the rangers did not give warning. When the enemy suddenly attacked, our army immediately turned into a defensive circle, with large shields outside and crossbowmen inside. We fought and retreated.
But after our army fought with them, they no longer fought head-on with us after they were repelled by us in the initial charge.
Let go of the war horses and constantly surround our army, using the cavalry projectile method to consume us.
We were not afraid at the beginning, and no one on either side took advantage.
But as we fought and walked away, under the rain of arrows, our powerful crossbows were useless except as the best marksmen in the army.
I had no choice but to speed up again.
As a result, the camp was immediately in chaos. At this time, the Mongolian cavalry accelerated its attack again. At the same time, an elite cavalry of more than 2,000 people appeared directly and charged towards us.
By forcefully charging into the formation, we killed hundreds of them, but the formation was completely broken, and we suffered heavy losses from the cavalry fire.
In this battle, the general lost the opportunity. He did not expect that there was a heavy armored knight, so he gave the wrong order. He also asked the general to give the general a chance to atone for his sins. "
After Han Zhi finished talking about the process, he asked for orders again to fight for the first time, but this time he still shook his head slightly and said the same thing.
"wait!"
