Good commanders and military staff can smell changes in the situation with their noses.

Hu Hongxiu further completed the investigation mission and made sure that the Khitans had turned around and started and did not turn back. He vaguely felt that without national mobilization, the Xixia people would definitely reveal certain flaws after the war broke out. Then he was wise. He chose the key location of the Yellow River Xiakou for observation, and finally found a fatal flaw that the Xixia people might pass by in a flash.

It is conceivable that as long as this window period is missed, with Xixia’s state-building posture, from three to five days to as many as ten days, there will inevitably be military scheduling and supplements at all costs to complete the rejuvenation of the capital. The defense of the boundary (Yinchuan Plain).

In the same way, after Yue Fei withdrew to Haoshuichuan, he was ordered to find an opportunity to fight. Although he followed rationality and chose to go to Zhuoluo City in the direction of Lanzhou, he attempted to strike through the Hexi Corridor with the Khitan people, but still maintained his opposition to Xingqing. The government’s attention, so I chose to go from Qu Wu Mountain to Huizhou and then make a decision. Only then can we meet Hu Hongxiu successfully.

And just as the entire Xixia was attacked from three sides and had completely entered a state of full-scale war, at the easternmost line, on the other side of Pujin, Wanyanwushu and Wanyanba Lisu also vaguely smelled something wrong.

But they don't know where the error came from.

Did Li Yanxian's outstanding performance behind Zhongtiao Mountain free up the Song Jun's leeway, or was it because the rebels in the Taihang Mountains caused the slow march of reinforcements because of the rebel attack, which gave the opposing Song Army the courage to stop the reinforcement plan?

Or was it in Hengshan and Yan'an where the Zhao Song officials finally made up their minds to achieve some results regardless of everything? After all, the slogan is sounding, if you can't get the results, how can you prevaricate the country?

However, at this moment, Wanyanwushu and Wanyanba Lisu never thought about the other side of Xixia, and did not even express this doubt a little...until the fifth day of April, they sat down. In the north, Xijing (Datong), who has direct communication channels with Xixia, left-behind Wanyan Luguan at Xijing left behind, with a slightly slower speed, a slightly skeptical mentality, and a slightly contemptuous attitude, but in the end he told his brother through military channels. The message that came from Yinshan and caused the turmoil of Xixia people.

"it is true!"

Wu Shu made a judgment right away. "It's absolutely true! Yeluyan Mountain and the Mengwu people are not bluffing, Yelu Dashi is definitely coming from further west! Song army must have left a large force to fight him right and left! This is where the bluffing is! opposite!"

The stork upstairs, which had long been the commanding platform of the Golden Army, looked at each other. Among them, another commander, Pull Lisu, was silent for a while, and then went to the barracks across the river with the bright sunshine in the morning. After a glance, he nodded directly.

Obviously, Pulling Speed ​​also recognized Wushu's judgment.

"So what should we do now?" Wanhu Sa Liyi woke up and asked immediately.

Hundreds of thousands of households, Meng'an, and a small amount of conspiracy at the scene looked at Wei Wang and Taiyuan staying behind... Although the former has the highest authority, the latter is also a front-line commander and has considerable authority on military issues.

Sure enough, the pale-faced Wei Wang Wushu heard the words and looked directly at the commander-in-chief of the West Route Army beside him: "My heart is already in chaos. What should I do now?"

"Then it depends on what His Royal Highness Wang wants to do." With an iron complexion, he thought about it for a while, and frankly faced each other. "Do you want to preserve the overall situation, or save the overall situation? Or do you want to refuse to give up and let the Song people's plans fail?"

"Now can the Song people's plan fail?!" Wu Shu's spirit was lifted.

"How can't it?" Pulling Lisu directly drew the knife from his waist, pointing to the other side of the river. "If the Song people left their army on the western front to join forces with the Khitan people, they wanted to seize Hengshan, Yan'an, and also withstand Zhongtiao Mountain... Then dare to ask His Royal Highness King Wei, how many soldiers are there on the other side at this time? How credible is the statement made by the Korean mallet that Yue Fei is behind Pujin as a backup?"

Wu Shu's breathing became heavy.

Pulling the speed on deaf ears, he just raised the knife to the other side, and said impassionedly: "The water in Pujin is slow. Although the Hexinzhou is submerged, it is roughly visible. Now the summer flood season has not come, put some manpower to strengthen Set up multiple pontoon bridges, enough to pass the army, and then imitate the story of Han Xin back then, send a small division from the Longmen crossing, flanking the enemy's rear... Now the king of Wei has ordered that only one ten thousand households be kept to guard the Hezhong Mansion, and then the rest of the army will be sent to the full. , Regardless of deaths and injuries, storm the enemy's position! As long as you rush to defeat the so-called elite army directly under the Zhao Song official family before Li Yanxian and Han Shizhong assist you, you can ensure that the Song army will definitely abandon some **** Xixia and return to defense with all your strength!"

Wu Shu's breathing became heavier, but he still said nothing.

But Pull Lisu finally turned around, but he directly inserted the white blade in his hand on the desktop map in front of Wu Shu's body, with a hideous face: "Send your troops, King Wei! There are fifty to sixty thousand troops in the West Route Army, as long as King Wei says a word. , Then waded across the Yellow River for the Wanyan family! A shame before the snow!"

Wu Shu stared firmly at Ba Lisu, and Ba Lisu was not afraid at all, and stared at the opponent coldly.

The two of them looked at each other for a long time, separated by a table, a map, and a knife. In the end, their breathing gradually eased together. At this time, the surrounding West Road Army officers, a few of them were really mind-blowing. , And gradually understood the meaning of Pulling Speed.

"Are you so afraid that I will take the West Route Army to go desperately?" Wu Shu asked with a grinning grin, and his white face finally became a bit rosy, showing a bit of vitality. "Do you think that if I send two more 10,000 households in Pujin, the West Route Army will be devastated?"

At this moment, everyone understood the position of Pulling Speed.

"I'm not only afraid that the West Route Army will send two more 10,000 households, and will never recover, but also that Wei Wang will be defeated here and that he will not even have a place to speak when he returns to Yanjing." Pulling Lisu took a few deep breaths, and solemnly confronted each other. "Four princes, we have fought together since Nanyang. At that time, I seemed to disagree with you, but that was because at that time, my boss was Nian Han, the same column was the Lou's family, and the elder brother was a silversmith, and the contender was a living. Female, and you have a second prince who has passed away only two years but the first in the military strategy for comparison. How can you make me look at you?"

Wu Shu snorted coldly.

"In the past few years, I have gradually understood that where the world can only go to war? When a war is started, how can it be like the ten years of the Taizu time, and it will be victorious? The generals are gradually withered, the soldiers gradually become dull, and the food and goods. It’s also getting hotter, there are military problems everywhere, this is the complicated thing that a normal country should have... And at this time, the Dajin country not only needs people who can fight, but also has people who understand the country’s political affairs. There are people who know how to coordinate the various ethnic groups and armies, and they must dare to frighten those who are not dead in the center... In the past, those who could do this, I would say something awkward, in fact, only Nianhan has the talent and courage. , Your brothers and the Supreme Lord are not enough. Now that Nian Han is killed by you, you are the only one who looks like you!" Ba Lisu said earnestly. "If you want to fight, it's not impossible, but just look at the pits and bases dug on the other side these days, but there must be an unsuccessful battle, ruining two million households, and losing the preparations for the power of the DPRK."

Wu Shu pursed his mouth and said nothing, but after a while, he almost shed tears, but finally laughed.

Not to mention that I suddenly learned that I was once again played by the Zhao Song official on the opposite side. It is no wonder that this happened; not to mention the current dilemma, making decisions has always been so difficult; the key is that the king of the golden kingdom really did not I thought that he was the first to point out that his complete beauty is indispensable to the Dajin Nation, but it is actually the head of the party and the Western army in front of him who has been unhappy with his family on the battlefield. speed.

Only when I think about it the other way around, now that the talent of Dajin Nation is dying, he is already the ‘one person’ after ‘sticky’, so how can it be fast? Isn't it a rare and useful national star?

Wuli can't die, Lou Shi is dead, Nian Han is dead, living girls have such a thing, silver art can be very old, but also lose the trust of the top and bottom, military do not believe in this person, who can you believe?

Are you lazy after the first battle?

Or his own brothers who have never been on the battlefield a few times, the so-called Six Princes Corrupt Luguan?

Or are it people like Ali, Zulubu, Gao Jingshan, and Wulin Dayi? Of course, these people are still talents, but unfortunately they are not surnamed Wanyan.

After laughing for a long time, until the qi in his chest dissipated, Wu Shu finally sat back in his seat, watching the white blade on the table in front of him continue to speak, but his tone has completely calmed down: "If you don't cross the river for a decisive battle, what should you say?"

"That is naturally to sit and watch the Xixia people lose Hexi... and then either take the opportunity to force the living girl back, and then abandon the things on the Yellow River side, or send troops from the north to support the Xixia people on the Hengshan side." Ba Lisu answered calmly. .

"Although we have lost a profit, we can't let the Song and Liao people benefit greatly... We transferred our troops to the north, one tens of thousands of families went out of the Sui German army, two out of the Jinning army, and one went to Linzhou. Be sure to help Xixia stay stable. Living in the situation in Hengshan, as long as Hengshan is not lost, Xixia will be able to support...Such a dispatch is also a means to respond to the living girl when necessary." Wu Shu finally ordered. "Then I will hand it over to the unified command of Palisu. I personally take a trip to Yan'an. No matter how the situation goes, I must first hand over the military power! I have to tell him plainly that the army belongs to the country, not for him. Those who are here to avenge...who can disagree?"

Several people looked at each other. This policy is not hurried or slow, and it has taken care of people's hearts. How can there be opinions?

Not only that, after a short pause, Wan Hu Wanyan Zhihe also reminded: "Wei Wang, Dutong, of course your arrangement is appropriate, but I have a sentence to remind you that the Khitan people have been in the north for a hundred years, and the Song people are here. For a hundred years in the South, the prestige is extremely high... The two families fight the party members together, and the Mengwu people are mixed, and the hearts of all ethnic groups in Xixia must grow grass... The dispatch here is fast, otherwise, if there is a collapse, it will Nothing is too late."

Pulling Lisu shook his head again and again: "No matter how fast it is, tens of thousands of troops will have to move over."

The surrounding army generals were hesitant to speak, Wu Shu's expression was a bit bad again.

Instead, he pulled out the knife on the table, and before inserting it back to his waist, he took a serious look and said, "Wang Wei...I was admonishment just now, but it is also the truth. It is the most effective if I want to keep the overall situation. There is nothing better than to pull the whole army to the other side at this time...If you really want to, I certainly disagree with it in my heart, but I will definitely order it and ban it personally!" 118 Novels

Hearing this, Wu Shu raised his head and looked at the other side again.

In fact, he doesn’t need to look at all. He knows the situation there, because these days he sees more than anyone else, and he sees more clearly than anyone else... From a horizontal point of view, the huge camp expansion of the Song Army It is nearly thirty miles wide, covering almost all the land that is suitable for landing. From a longitudinal perspective, the layers of fences, soil barriers, trenches, antlers, and pits are enough to make any warrior on the battlefield. Frustrated.

Those Kansai militias from the Solidarity Club and the Bow and Arrow Club can rely on these things to exert considerable combat effectiveness.

In contrast, the confusion between the roles of war pawns and civilian husbands in the previous construction process does not matter at this time.

In this situation, Wan Yan Wushu and all the generals on the scene knew very well that at this time, the whole army forced to flee, nothing more than two endings... One was a rush, crushing the opponent in a short time, and causing the Song army to fall into a major collapse. , But because of the river crossing and fortifications, it was impossible to pursue an effective pursuit; the other was that the opponent used effective killing to cultivate morale and discipline, and then really buried two million households on the river beach.

"I was ignorant, I was deceived by the Song people." After waiting for a moment, Wu Shu raised his voice. "If you were determined to cross the river to meet the living girl in person, or if you used Qin Xianggong's plan to directly give the Xixia people the broken land on the other side of the river, where is the predicament today? It is a sudden and rapid attack. The harassment of reinforcements was also the result of my arbitrarily urging."

The generals looked at each other without saying a word, but they felt respect... Now that the matter has arrived, everyone knows that Wushu and Palisu are not misjudgments. It is nothing more than that the Song people on the other side are too cunning, but Wushu takes the initiative to take the blame, but It was to let the generals of the West Route Army breathe a sigh of relief.

At the moment, there will be no words for everyone.

Pulling Lisu back to his saber, went down to transfer the troops, and Wu Shufu ordered another table of food, and he ate it on the opposite side of the stork upstairs, and then went northward personally, ready to see the living girl.

The Golden Man walked north, and across Pujin, the Song Army Camp did not relax, but became more tense...No one knew if the Golden Army was trying to capture it, and no one knew if they would kill a carbine at night.

However, in the evening that day, Jin Jun did not come back, nor did he come back the next day. Of course, the beacon smoke preset by Longmendu did not ignite.

But at the same time, go upstream along the Yellow River, a straight line distance of a thousand miles away, the actual distance of the Yellow River is three thousand miles away, a key point in the heart of Xixia-Xiakou, which is where the Qingtong Gorge of later generations is located. , The beacon was successfully ignited.

Moreover, there were very few Xixia troops. The Song army circumvented the upper reaches of Zhang Xian's department. The raid was successful, and then the whole army succeeded in forcibly crossing, but after all, it was limited by manpower and could not stop the Xixia people from igniting the beacon.

Therefore, in the afternoon, the beacon fires together, the smoke soared into the sky, and for a time warnings were everywhere along the Yellow River in Xixia.

"Good teacher Jiedu knows that Liu Fa... is Liu Zhengyan’s father. He once walked the same way and came to Lingzhou once, and he passed the Xiakou and arrived at Lingzhou, but he was defeated by Wei Ming Chage under Lingzhou City. In the end, When he was about to retreat here, he was surrounded by Brother Cha, and then the entire army was annihilated.” By the end of the day, Song Jun, despite the hard work, the entire army crossed the river, and Hu Hongxiu, who had a lot less mutton oil on his head, saw that Yue Fei had changed his vision. The smoke of a large-scale bonfire was silent, so he explained a little bit forward. "After that time, Xixia people even made beacon towers in such places... In fact, after passing this gorge, Xixia is the real hinterland."

Yue Fei shook his head slightly, and held the knife in a deep voice: "I don't care about this beacon, coming to the hinterland of Xixia people, this indispensable... how far is this place from Xingqing Mansion?"

"One hundred and eighty miles." Hu Hongxiu blurted out.

"Rapid march... three days?" Yue Fei pondered for a moment, then asked again.

Hu Hongxiu immediately shook his head: "At least six days."

Liu Qi hesitated on the side, and he also voluntarily interrupted and explained: "Yue Jiedu...The party members are more tribes than hukou, and all the people are soldiers. The core warrior is not in Xingling at this time. With the authority of Li Ganshun’s 50-year ruler, A messenger can summon a male from a nearby tribe to help. His generation rides a horse, holds a bow, carries a spear, and carries a bag of food and water, enough to form an army. And this kind of fan rides against our army, It must be sent to death, but if we ignore them, indulge in the march, let them harass the march and rob the logistics, then we will send it to death."

Yue Fei nodded immediately: "The two people mean that they can only march safely and travel thirty miles a day?"

"Yes." Liu Qi answered.

"How many of these Tibetan horses will come to aid?"

"It's hard to tell." Liu Qi continued to face each other seriously. "It depends on how fast we go... If we can really count on thirty or forty miles a day, five or six days, when we arrive at the city of Xingqing Mansion, I am afraid that there will be 20,000 people."

And Hu Hongxiu hesitated for a moment and reminded him a little: "Jiedu, the more tribal horses gather, the slower we will advance... and not only how many tribal horses come from the other side, but also our military strength."

"Don't worry about it." Yue Fei shook his head in response. "Deputy Wang is 40 miles behind him. One day's journey will be handed over to him. Let's not delay. We will have a good rest today. Tomorrow morning, the whole army will move forward quickly, grab time and distance."

Liu Qi and Hu Hongxiu thought for a while, and then each nodded heavily. After listening to the previous conversations, Qu Duan, who had just settled in their cavalry, just waved their whip, and had nothing to say for a while.

Think about it too, what else can I do now?

There was no word for a night. Early the next morning, when the sky just turned up, everyone got up to eat, only to find that there was a Buddhist tower near the Yellow River where they were resting yesterday. Many soldiers who believed in Buddha ran over to worship.

The officers didn't stop them, and even many officers themselves couldn't help but pay a respect. Only Yue and Qu were coldly opposed to each other without any indication.

"Jedu, Xixia people are here!"

In the morning, the whole army was sorted out, and the baggage was towed by a raft and walked in the river. The army arranged a line along the river according to the coach himself. It was about to set off. Li Shifu, who was thrown out in advance, suddenly turned around and reached the Chinese army. Yue Fei reported a military situation.

"how many people?"

Fully armored Yue Fei was inquiring under the banner of Shuai who served the country with loyalty and loyalty, and his eyes were obviously bloodshot.

"Four or five hundred...it must be the surrounding tribes who saw Fengyan and came by themselves." Li Shifu was serious. "These tribes are local tribes of Xingling, and they are the direct descendants of the Weiming clan. They will eventually try to recruit. As a result, both messengers were killed, so they had to be dispersed... And according to this posture, I'm afraid it will be possible tomorrow. With two to three thousand people gathered, the generals at the end will not be able to easily disperse these lightly armed horses for the army."

"It's okay." Yue Fei answered immediately. "Vice-General Li is doing a great job as a scout here."

Li Shifu nodded immediately, but like the surrounding Kansai generals, he couldn't hide his serious expression.

In this way, the army finally set off and headed north along the Yellow River.

However, ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ can’t walk for ten miles, and it’s not yet noon. As the army turned around the bend of the Yellow River, the terrain opened up for a while, and Yue Fei also naturally noticed a conspicuous item in the northwest of the army queue. He turned his head to look at Hu Hongxiu on his side:

"Hu Shilang, that mountain is continuous and magnificent. If the horses are galloping, what kind of mountain is it?"

Although knowing that the journey ahead is a part of life and death, Hu Hongxiu couldn't help but laugh: "Yue Jiedu has said that if the peaks of this mountain are like galloping horses, it is naturally the horse mountain..."

"Just call it a horse mountain?"

"Also!" Hu Hongxiu continued to laugh. "The horse is called Helan in the local Tibetan language... Therefore, this mountain is also called Helan Mountain!"

Yue Fei suddenly realized.
