The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 530 Xixia asks for help
Li Wangyuan's expression was extremely ugly.

Seeing the Xixia soldiers bathed in blood, he also felt heartbroken.These are the foundation and hope of his restoration of the country.

Moreover, he also understands that there is not much hope of breaking the city right now, and if he insists on going his own way, these generals under his command will probably feel dissatisfied.

Although he is the prince of Xixia, the power of Xixia was not developed by him.To put it bluntly, he was using other people's wealth to save his sister.

No matter how much the former officials of Xixia missed the Xixia court and how much they respected him, the prince of Xixia, they would not remain indifferent, right?

Li Wangyuan cared about his younger sister, and knew very well that if these old Xixia officials abandoned him, then he would no longer have the capital to fulfill the agreement with Da Song.

Li Wangyuan's eyes turned red as he saw the thunderbolts still falling, and finally gave the order, "Ming Jin!"

The sound of gold ringing.

The Xixia soldiers who had been blown out of their wits immediately retreated in panic.

Xixia has been stable for too long, and there are not many soldiers in the army who have fought on the battlefield, so their will is not firm.They couldn't fight such a one-sided battle at all.

On the top of the city, the general of the White Horse Army laughed even louder when he saw this.

Arrows and thunder thundered continuously.

The Xixia army retreated like a tide, leaving countless corpses on the way.

When they finally retreated from the range of arrows and shells, and the army fled in panic, the hot air balloons of the White Horse Army were still chasing after them with a headache, like hitting a dog in the water.

This only caused countless Xixia generals to scold them.

But if you scold him, you still have to run away in embarrassment.

Soon, Xixia soldiers escaped from Xu Yuan.

The White Horse Army chased all the way on the hot air balloon until they had polished Hong Tianlei before returning to Zhongzhou County.

Under the city head, there are countless corpses of Xixia soldiers.

The Battle of Chungju ended so dramatically.The Xixia army came and ran faster.

The loss of the White Horse Army was almost negligible, but the Xixia soldiers probably lost more than [-].

In just one battle, the White Horse Army injured Xixia's muscles and bones.

Li Wangyuan returned directly to Liangshan with tens of thousands of soldiers whose morale had fallen to the bottom.Just on the way, some generals in the army have already complained.

If according to their wishes, the White Horse Army had just retreated when the Thunderbolt was used, the loss should not have been so great.

Li Wangyuan was in a state of distress.

He didn't know, however, that the thunderbolts and hot air balloons of the White Horse Army would be even more powerful than this.

This really made him lose his mind.

Zhao Dongting asked him to send troops to stop the white horse army, but at present, it is obviously impossible for him to stop the white horse army with his Xixia soldiers.

In the Battle of Zhongzhou just now, when his soldiers rushed forward, it was almost as if they were sent to death.

Arriving at Liangshan City, Li Wangyuan, who was full of depression, galloped straight to the government office.He just felt full of depression and had nowhere to spread it.

Fortunately, he often received some cold words when he was in Dadu, and his psychological endurance was extremely strong.If not, I'm afraid that at this time, I can't control myself and do something out of the ordinary.

The Xixia generals watched him gallop into the city, they all shook their heads and sighed, without saying a word.

In fact, the current Xixia doesn't have the strength to come out to fight at all, but unfortunately, the prince doesn't listen to their persuasion at all.

If things go on like this, how many times can the family property they managed to pull up withstand the wear and tear?
Li Wangyuan returned to the government office, galloped to the front of the main hall, and entered the hall with a cold face.

Zhongsun Qifu and other veterans were waiting for news here, so they were unavoidably surprised to see Li Wangyuan come back so soon.

Zhongsun Qifu said: "Your Highness, why are you back here?"

"Failed."

Li Wangyuan sat heavily on the main seat, with his eyes slightly closed, "Our army cannot stop the thunder and hot air balloons of the White Horse Army, and the loss is more than ten thousand."

"what?"

"The White Horse Army is so tyrannical?"

"Loss of more than ten thousand?"

All the veterans in the hall turned pale with shock, and then each of them showed extremely distressed expressions.

This is the family background they managed to pull up after struggling under the control of the Yuan Dynasty!
More than 1 people, just like that?

Xiping Army Division, Heishui Town Army Division, Heishan Weifu Army Division, Baimaqiang Town Army Division, Gansu Army Division, Xiangqing Army Division, Zhuoluo and Nanjun Division, a total of seven Army Divisions in the old Western Xia Dynasty.These veterans have been hiding in the places of the Seventh Army Division for these years, and the forces they have secretly developed are no more than 10 people.It was just hit, and it lost one-tenth of it, how could it not hurt?

Although now Lintao Road, Fengxiang Road, and Lizhou East and West Roads have also belonged to their Xixia, but their real strength in Xixia is still only the [-] soldiers.

No, there are only [-] left now.

Lintao, Fengxiang, and Lizhou have Yuan generals stationed on the east and west roads. Their hearts are not deadly loyal to Xixia!More, I want to take this opportunity to stand on my own.

Immediately after the shock, an old official said to Li Wangyuan: "Your Highness, we are not opponents of the White Horse Army, we should retreat!"

At their age, it is difficult to have the spirit of young people.

Li Wangyuan covered his forehead, his voice was a little hoarse, "Retire from the army... what should my sister do?"

He raised his head and opened his eyes, which were actually red.

This expression made all the veterans stunned.

Then, a veteran said: "But even if we continue to fight like this, what can we do? Not to mention taking Zhongzhou, even this Liangshan, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold it?"

Many veterans nodded one after another.

They have accumulated strength and waited for decades, and they don't care about continuing to wait.Now, it is really not time for Xixia to conquer the world.

Li Wangyuan's heart was inevitably shaken.Of course he wanted to stay here, but right now, he had a faint feeling that these veterans were about to snub him.

The power of Xixia is still in the hands of these veterans after all.

He looked at Zhongsun Qifu and said, "Master Zhongsun, what do you mean?"

Zhongsun Qifu is the most respected among these veterans, and he can only pin his hopes on him.I hope he can say something so that the army can stay in Kuizhou.

However, Zhongsun Qifu said: "Your Highness, the veteran also feels that it is better for us to retreat first at this time."

Li Wangyuan's eyes were even redder, "Don't you think about Xiushu? She and I have been under house arrest in Dadu for so many years, and you have the heart to let her continue to be under house arrest in the Song Dynasty?"

All the veterans looked ashamed, but they just sighed helplessly.

The princess is important, or the country is important.Li Wangyuan didn't have a conclusion in his mind, but they did.

Their hard work for so many years is not to save Li Xiushu, but to restore Xixia to the country!
It's just that these words are obviously not easy to say to Li Wangyuan.Their loyalty to the Western Xia royal family made them unwilling to completely cool Li Wangyuan's heart after all.

Zhongsun Qifu pondered slightly, and said: "Princess, of course we have to redeem it. But Your Highness, we still need to see the facts clearly. Even if our army officers and soldiers go forward bravely, they may not be able to stop the White Horse Army in Central Shu. If The army is gone, we..."

He showed bitterness, "What else do we have to redeem the princess?"

"Then you guys have an idea!"

Li Wangyuan roared, already a little confused.

Zhongsun Qifu's eyes glowed, and he said, "Your Highness, why don't we ask Da Song for help?"

"Ok?"

Li Wangyuan was slightly moved.

Zhong Sun Qifu stood up, glanced at everyone, and said: "Although we have an agreement with the Song Dynasty, we will help them block the White Horse Army, and they will help us redeem the princess from the Yuan Dynasty. Now we are not not fulfilling the agreement, but doing our best There is something wrong. Kuizhou Road was originally their territory in the Song Dynasty, and in this case, it is understandable for them to give us assistance, right?"

"Yes Yes."

"What Master Zhongsun said is true."

All the veterans agreed.

Li Wangyuan was silent, and then he was also moved, "Then let's try this, I will write a letter myself and send it to the Song Dynasty."

After speaking, he ordered the soldiers outside to bring in pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

That night, a carrier pigeon flew from Liangshan to Leizhou.

It is not surprising that the veterans of Xixia have developed secretly for so many years, and they have set up dark halls all over the country.

Then in just two days, the Xixia Army, which took a short rest, withdrew from Liangshan and went to Lizhou East Road.

The battle of Zhongzhou alone scared these Xixia veterans, and they didn't even dare to stay on Kuizhou Road.

The carrier pigeon arrived in Leizhou.

Then someone from Xixia went outside Zhang Jue's mansion, begged to see Zhang Jue, and handed him the letter.

After Zhang Jue read the letter, he invited Lu Xiufu, Zhang Shijie, Su Liuyi and others to the mansion to read the letter one by one, and they all burst out laughing.

Lu Xiufu only praised again and again: "The emperor really has no plans!"

In the letter Zhao Dongting sent to them, he had already expected that Xixia would ask them for help.

Su Liuyi, who was also the deputy commander of the military with Zhang Jue, was also full of smiles, "Then let's send someone to send the method of making hot air balloons and thunderbolts to Xixia?"

"Ah."

Lu Xiufu nodded, "This great favor, Xixia owes us Da Song, it's a debt."
