Xiao Yi sent generals to sweep the Ningxia Plain, not only to find Li Qianshun and his son, but also to quickly establish a defense system to deal with possible military counterattacks.
The significance of finding Li Qianshun and his son is needless to say, but it is also necessary to defend against the counterattack of the peripheral military forces of Xixia.
The previous several vanguard battles, coupled with the Battle of Chungju, and then a life-and-death battle outside Xinggyingfu City, it seems that Xixia has almost perished, but its military strength has not completely lost resistance. the point.
The birthplace of Xixia is the Hengduan Mountains, and the main ones are mainly Dangxiang people.
The reason why Li Qianshun chose to flee after a wild battle was for this reason.
Judging from the previous battle losses, almost 40,000 Xixia people died in the battle, and more than 60,000 surrendered or were captured.
However, according to pre-war intelligence, Xixia had a total of more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, which was similar to the soldiers and horses of Daqian's expedition, or even more, because Daqian included militiamen and auxiliaries. soldiers.
Xixia's West Route Army coach Wei Ming Anhui, East Route Army coach Richard Brother, plus Li Qianshun's emperor's personal army, the total number is almost more than 200,000.
Therefore, it now seems that more than 100,000 people fled to Helan Mountain with Li Qianshun.
That night, Xiao Yi and Yue Hongling did have time to keep an eye on Xingqing Mansion, and they did notice Li Qianshun's escape.
After all, hundreds of thousands of people fled the city, how could there be no news at all.
However, the Dangxiang people in Xingqing Mansion City chose to live and die with the city. Many people still did not escape. Instead, they climbed up the city wall to protect the capital.
The scouts also failed to find Li Qianshun. It seemed that many Xixia people fled in a hurry because they knew that Xingqing Mansion could not be saved.
After discussing with Yue Hongling, Xiao Yi chose to occupy Xingqing Mansion and announced to the world that Xixia was destroyed.
As for Li Qianshun, pursue him if he can and try his best to catch Li Qianshun.
In the next two days, the four states around Xingqing Mansion were quickly swept away and three states were quickly swept away. But so far, the defense system of Xingqing Mansion on the west bank of the Yellow River by the Daqian Forbidden Army had basically been rebuilt.
At the same time, there was still no sign of Chage's army returning, and there was no trace of the Xixia Li Qianshun's pro-army troops who had escaped from Xingqing Mansion.
As a result, Li Qianshun's whereabouts are unknown.
The leader of the Xixia Kingdom was obviously worried about the long journey to Hengshan, the Yellow River and the desert, and the lack of supplies. Or he was worried that it would be too obvious to go directly to the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, and he would be intercepted by the Dagan Imperial Army who blocked the Mongolian Yuan reinforcements in the Yinshan Mountains. I wanted to live there, so I chose to go north along the river.
Of course, after heading north, where will this person go?
Probably going to Houtao, which is a strategic location and one of the four core ruling areas of Xixia.
It is also possible that he took a detour to Mongolia and took refuge with Temujin.
But no matter what, it seems a little too late.
Xixia has basically been recovered. How to appease the people of Xixia and how to govern this place has become a new problem.
What Xiao Yi has to do is to immediately control the Yinchuan Plain, the political, economic, cultural, and geographical heart of Xixia, and then use it to control the entire Xixia.
On December 16th, Brother Richard, who had already broken through the barrier set by Yue Hongling, received dozens of intensive military reports within one day. While feeling dizzy, he fell into extreme panic.
Because on this day, he not only received the emergency document behind him, but also finally met the officials who had fled from Xingqing Mansion, saw Li Qianshun's latest request for help, learned the reality of the loss of Xingqing Mansion, and even learned about the state leader. and the news that the prince's whereabouts are unknown.
For a time, Xixia's current military god, Brother Richard, was in a dilemma!
It's really a dilemma. He is not an emperor, but a general who leads troops and has no power at all. The other is the request for help from Li Qianshun, the leader of the Xixia Kingdom who abandoned Xingqing Mansion and fled in panic, asking him to abandon the entire area of Xixia East Road and Party items. Helan Mountain, the ancestral land of human beings, went to attach itself to Meng Yuan and then take revenge.
The other one is himself. As a person who grew up in Xingqing Mansion, he is regarded as the general of Xixia Military God. He also has 40,000 elites in his hands. He really wants to unite with Li Qianshun's emperor's army and hold back the generals. Fuck the prince.
He was really fooled by Yue Hongling this time. Otherwise, he would have arrived at Xingqing Mansion long ago, so he could unite with Weiming Anhui and unite the three armies to resist Prince Daqian.
Until now, Brother Richard still feels that he can stop it.
Actually.
Can it really be stopped?
If it was really possible, how could he be held back by Yue Hongling's not-so-smart methods?
to be honest.
People still have selfish motives.
It doesn’t matter whether they are Han Chinese or Dangxiang people.
They are all people.
It’s not like Han people will develop selfishness or become party-fighting after they study.
Party members will too.
Brother Richard just wants Weiming Anhui to die in battle.
Unexpectedly.
The other party died too easily and too quickly.
Unexpectedly, when did Daqian's imperial army become so powerful, and when did Prince Daqian have such strong confidence and confidence?
In the past, Daqian had at most arrived outside Xingqing Mansion and accepted Xixia's initiative to make peace!
Why isn't it like this this time?
Throughout the afternoon, Brother Richard kept telling himself that no matter what, he must make a decision quickly, because the fate of the country is in his hands.
However, the more this happened, the more panicked and indescribable he became, and the more difficult it was to make a decision.
In a word, Brother Cha was also shocked by the news.
In other words, they still don’t realize the seriousness of the problem, and they don’t realize that the current Dagan is no longer the same Dagan, and the current Xixia is no longer the same Xixia.
The warm wind makes people feel haggard, and they call Hangzhou Bianzhou.
What goes up must come down.
The senior Xixia officials and the Xixia nobles who had enjoyed themselves for more than ten years were naturally blinded by the drunken life, also known as being blinded by lard.
This kind of thing happened in the Central Plains in history.
It is also happening in Xixia today.
In the evening, Brother Cha, who was almost suffering from a splitting headache, was "invited" out by his close subordinates, but he was immediately furious because at some point, no less than a hundred officers had gathered in the front yard of his residence.
"What do you want to do? Do you want to rebel?"
"Commander, no one wants to rebel!" An older general who was obviously elected directly led everyone to kneel down together. Then this man walked forward on his knees, hugging Cha Ge's legs and facing each other sincerely.
"Commander, we just want to ask, since Xingqing Mansion is occupied by the Imperial Guards, why do we have to stop here?"
"Shouldn't we go back to save him?! Our tribe, sons, savings, and property are all in our hometown! Even the king and the prince, if they are not here, shouldn't they be in the west?"
After he finished speaking, he hugged Brother Richard's thigh and cried bitterly. As he cried, the other generals also sobbed. Their families were also in Xingqing Mansion!
Now that Xingqing Mansion has been captured by Daqian's imperial army, what happened to their families?
Brother Richard lowered his head and stared at this person blankly. His heart was churning for a moment, but he suddenly woke up.
