The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 388 Pingxia City: Seven Thousand Down to Thirty Thousand!

[On March 1097, , the fifth day after the completion of Pingxia City, Queen Mother Liang of Western Xia mobilized more than troops from the six military supervisory offices of Ganzhou, Youxiang, Zhuoluo, Weizhou, Zhongzhai and Tiandu Mountain, and handed them over to Amai to command the six armies to attack Pingxia City! ]

[At that time, Zhe Keshi and others were ordered to lead a small force to guard the northern part of Pingxia City, while the main force of the Song army was mainly concentrated in Pingxia City.]

[This reconnaissance force consisted of several thousand people. They discovered the Xixia army near Meiyan Gorge and hastily decided to pursue them without waiting for reinforcements, and eventually fell into the Xixia trap.]

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
Liu Che, who was leaning on the couch with his chin in his hand, was amused.

"Sometimes, I really want to have the ability to see the future like Li Shimin."

"Then go to the Song Dynasty and open the brains of these Song army generals and take a look."

"Isn't that filled with shit?"

"Don't blame the Song Dynasty for suppressing you."

For the first time, Liu Che felt that the emperor of the Song Dynasty was quite kind.

Such generals who disobey orders have existed since the founding of the country.

It’s been almost a hundred years, and there’s still time!

It appears in every important battle!
Not missing a single one!
"A good general will not be kept, and a mediocre general will not be killed."

Emperor Wu of Han could only express his disapproval of the Song Dynasty's system of suppressing military power.

My maid!
……

[The Western Xia army crossed the Meiyan Gorge and continued to march southward, arriving at the entrance to Pingxia on April 12.]

[Although Zhe Keshi's army was defeated, it also allowed the Song army headquarters to prepare for battle in advance. ]

[The Song army stationed about 80,000 troops in Jingyuan Road, and had no advantage in manpower over the main force of the Western Xia army, but Pingxia City was a place that the Western Xia must take, so the Song army had room to maneuver.]

……

On the canopy.

Pingxia City.

The big flags on the city wall were blown by the strong wind and made loud noises.

"Load the crossbow!"

"shoot!"

The Song army pulled the crossbows and shot out sharp crossbow arrows that pierced through several Xia soldiers who were throwing hay into the trench.

"Quick attack! Quick attack!"

Pingxia City sits between two towering stone peaks.

This is why Shimen got its name.

Starting from the stone gates on both sides, the moat surrounding the city is bottomless.

But more than 100,000 bales of hay thrown in were able to fill up a ten-foot-wide grass path.

The Xia army, blocked by the trench, came along the grass path, holding a knife in one hand and a hoe in the other.

Arrived at the city gate wielding a hoe.

"General! This is not an option!"

A general pulled out the arrow that had pierced his body and said urgently to the old general commanding the battlefield:
"If we remain in this strong city, once all the Xia troops arrive, the incident in Yongle City will happen again!"

There was no trace of panic on the white-haired veteran's face.

After commanding the soldiers to pour the golden juice under the city, he asked the anxious generals around him:

"How many Xia Jun have come?"

The general was so anxious that his voice broke.

“Half of them are already there!”

The veteran nodded calmly, then waved his right hand.

The guards behind him turned around and waved flags toward the inner wall.

The Xia army that was attacking outside the city suddenly discovered that the city gate opened by itself!
Before he could rush forward in ecstasy.

A large group of heavily armored infantrymen wearing helmets and armor came out of the city!

Without even a glance, the heavily armored soldiers, armed with swords and spears, formed a battle formation and headed straight for the path made of hay!

The Xia army poured in from outside the trench like a torrent.

However, those thousands of heavily armored soldiers went upstream, blocking the path of the torrent like an indestructible rock.

on the city wall,
The astonished general looked at the soldiers blocking the passage, then turned to look at the veteran general.

Taking off his brocade robe, the old general drew his long sword and stepped forward.

He stepped on the battlement, ignoring the arrows that brushed past his face, and shouted:
"Boys!"

"Kill the enemy!"

The city gate opened again and the Song army rushed out in full force!

……

[At that time, the Xixia army filled a section of the trench with hay, and then tens of thousands of soldiers attacked the Xia city with shovels and hoes.]

【It depends on when the city wall is about to collapse. 】

[Yao Xiong of the Xihe Army led 7,000 men to charge out and launch a counterattack.]

[Ignoring the Xia army that was attacking the city, they rushed straight to the place where the trench was filled with hay.]

[Blocked and cut off the Xixia army's reinforcements. ]

[Seven thousand men not only blocked the advancing Xixia reinforcements, but also cut off the counterattacking siege troops from behind, making it impossible for them to take care of each other.]

[The Song army in the city also quickly joined the battle. ]

[As time passed, the Xixia people outside the trench retreated in a panic, and the Xixia army inside the trench was forced to surrender, with as many as 30,000 people surrendering.]

[7,000 down to 30,000, Yao Xiong becomes famous in one battle! ]

……

Ji Han.

"it is good!"

A loud shout rang out!
The dust on the beams fell down.

Everyone hurriedly covered the food and wine on the table with their sleeves.

"Pooh! Poof!"

Liu Bei spat out a mouthful of ash and waved it away with his sleeves.

With helplessness, he said:

"Yide..."

Zhang Fei stroked his beard embarrassedly.

"I can't help myself, I can't help myself."

"Isn't this just reminding me of the past?"

Sun Quan, who was sitting opposite him, pretended to know nothing:

"Oh? Third General, what is this past?"

Just as Zhang Fei was about to show off, he was secretly kicked by Guan Yu beside him.

"Ah? Nothing, nothing."

Cao Cao, who was sitting next to Sun Quan, looked calm.

But when he glanced at Guan Yu, he sighed in his heart.

……

Datang.

"it is good!"

Li Shimin laughed and applauded.

It turns out that the Song Dynasty just needs a tougher emperor!
Since the king's heart is clear, the general's heart will naturally be available!
A hint of a smile also appeared on the faces of the ministers in the palace.

Sure enough, there was no more critical point than this at that time.

There is no place more dangerous than this!
Yao Xiong was suddenly caught in the vortex of the Xixia people, and he only had 7,000 men.

He could be swallowed up by the enemy troops rushing in at any time, and the Xixia people who were attacking the city could also turn around and counterattack at any time.

But even in such a desperate situation where defeat was inevitable, Yao Xiong used only 7,000 men to cut off the Xixia people's retreat and prevented the counterattack of the siege team.

"There are so many heroes in the world."

……

Tang Xuanzong Period
Li Longji sighed with envy.

"Why don't I have such a powerful general..."

Gao Lishi hesitated to speak.

Yang Yuhuan ignored him.

... [At the same time, the rest of the Song army also took advantage of the situation and attacked and won. ]

【Fuyan Road went out of the border to repair Futu Village, and Hedong Road went out of the border to repair Jialu Village. 】

[In June, Anjiang Village was repaired.]

[In August, the Song army recaptured Youzhou.]

【In the early years of Yuanyou, in order to show concession to Xixia, Xihe Lanhui Road was changed to Xihe Lanmin Road, indicating the abandonment of Huizhou between Song and Xia.】

[It was also restored to Xihe Lanhui Road to show the strategic position towards Xixia. ]

[In March 1098 AD, Mizhi Village was recovered.]

[At this point, all the areas ceded to the Western Xia in the early Yuanyou years were recovered, and more than ten new forts were built.]

……

Great Song.

Zhao Kuangyin sat on Zhao Kuangyi's back.

Staring blankly at the sky.

The strength in his hands loosened, and the man with his hands twisted behind his back fell to the ground.

Zhao Kuangyi, with his face buried in the ground, had a blank expression on his face.

The hand is broken...

At the same time, he looked up at the sky.

I was also stunned.

"woo woo woo woo!"

Zhao Kuangyin covered his mouth with one hand and whimpered with joy.

……

Song Taizong period
Zhao Kuangyi sat on the stone pier motionless.

"Zhao Xu... Zhao Xu..."

Xihe opened up the border and recovered lost territory.

"well!"

Restraining his excitement, he waved his trembling hands.

The attendant beside him came forward.

"The official family..."

"Go get some paper and pen."

Zhao Kuangyi planned to leave a secret letter.

He wants to clear the way for the two people in the future!

……

Song Zhenzong period
Zhao Heng felt that he was fine again.

"Xiao'e, be fair."

"If I had not reached a hundred years of peace with the Liao Kingdom, Xu'er and Xu'er would not have been able to attack Xixia safely, right?"

Liu E nodded and smiled:
"Yes, if you hadn't taken Lingzhou, they wouldn't have had to attack Xixia."

"Right."

Zhao Heng: ...

……

During the Song Dynasty and Renzong Period
Zhao Zhen was a little conflicted.

Is this elixir for Zhao Xu or Zhao Xu?

Why is there only one?

Can you give me two more?

……

Song Shenzong Period
Zhao Xu was very pleased.

Zhao Xu was very confused.

He glanced at the star next to his hand.

"Then this thing..."

At first I was frightened and disgusted, but later I figured it out.

But now it doesn’t look like it’s targeting Zhao Xu?
Could it be possible that Xu'er could reach the level of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang?
Bright in front and dark in the back?

That’s not right. Wasn’t Li Longji fine?
……

Li Longji: A-choo!

Yang Yuhuan: Sanlang?

Li Longji: It’s okay, I just feel like someone is talking about me.

……

Song Huizong Period
Zhao Ji could hardly remember what his brother looked like.

The only thing he still remembered was that the other person was in really poor health.

"Alas, I asked you to play Cuju with me, but you just wouldn't do it."

Life is beautiful, why do we have to make a lot of trouble?

Isn’t it good to enjoy life?
Okay, you must be exhausted!
……

【The Western Xia army was defeated and wrote to the Liao Kingdom. 】

[The Liao Dynasty wrote a letter to the Song Dynasty condemning it.]

[The gist is, I ask you to withdraw your troops, return the occupied land, and destroy the privately built castle. I hope you can agree.]

[If you don't listen, be careful I may take other actions. If you still violate the rules, I will send someone to discuss it separately.]

[If the previous Emperors of Song, such as Ren, Ying, and Shen, had read this letter, no matter how angry they were, they would have to write a polite reply to show courtesy.]

【And Song Zhezong said, "Who are you?"】

[Not a single reply was given, Liao was completely ignored.]

……

Later Tang Dynasty: Zhuangzong Period
Li Cunxu played with the jade with one foot on the chair and his arms on his legs.

"Finally, there is a Song Dynasty emperor I like."

"It's not easy!"

"Hmm...it seems those changes were useful."

How can you be confident without money?

Fighting a war costs money, and preparing for war also costs money.

……

Later Zhou Dynasty: Emperor Shizong's reign
Sitting at the desk, Guo Rong looked at the sky and chuckled.

"This little emperor has quite a temper."

Wei Renpu on the side also laughed:

"The Song Dynasty just lacks an emperor with a bad temper."

Guo Rong smiled and shook his head.

"The Shimen area is like the Jianmen area in Shu. Xixia will never give it up."

"It still depends on whether we can withstand the fierce attack from Xixia later."

"Let's not talk about him. How is the situation in Northern Han?"

Wei Renpu took out a memorial and the servant beside him took it and handed it to him.

"Wang Zhongwu handed over a military report that a flood had besieged Taiyuan."

Guo Rong opened it and took a look.

"Okay, the general guarding the city named Liu Ye is not bad, let's do our best to persuade him to surrender."

……

[The Liao Kingdom did not respond after being ignored.]

[The Liao and Song dynasties seemed to have a tacit understanding, like a double act, the Liao dynasty would make gestures when necessary, and the Song dynasty would continue to ignore them when necessary.]

[This side is performing a double act, while Xixia, who is being acted on, feels very uncomfortable.]

[Because they must remove the thorn in their throats from Pingxia City.]

[In October 1098 AD, the Western Xia launched the second battle of Pingxia City. ]

[In this battle, the Xixia people assembled an army of 400,000, led by Empress Dowager Liang.]
