Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Everyone got off their horses, and Defang walked over to help them up, "Two generals please get up quickly."

"My lord! It's great to see you again in the end!"

"So is this king, hahaha, I didn't expect to meet again so soon."

"This time, it is all thanks to the prince's advice to His Majesty, Chen Yiyi, otherwise the supply may not be approved, and the Weilu army in Suicheng will be in trouble."

"Hey, if it wasn't for General Li's foresight, how could this king and the prime minister advise His Majesty with such detailed benefits?"

"The last general just did nothing out of worry, and the prince and the prime minister tried their best to admonish them in the capital, so the supply matter was completed so quickly."

"This is His Majesty's sage." Defang cupped his hands to the sky, and then said, "Also, General Li's letter arrived in time, otherwise it would really make your worries come true, General Li, haha"

"My lord, don't the ministers of the court want to distribute supplies?"

"Yes, many ministers think that it is very inappropriate to protect the food supply, and worry that the Liao army will intercept the food and capture Suicheng. Some ministers handed over a seal to His Majesty, asking His Majesty to abandon the area around the Weilu Army, where there are less than [-] The towns and cities defending the army should reduce the army, merge the troops, tighten the defense line, and only guard the pass."

"How could they say such a thing! Their memorial to abandon the Weilu army is tantamount to surrendering land to the Liao people. How many innocent people will be slaughtered for this! They are really ashamed of the people of their home country!"

"General Li, don't get angry. Civil servants don't know how to fight. Their original intention is to protect the country, but what they offer is not a good strategy, but a temporary peace for the people of Song Dynasty."

"Fortunately, the prince and the prime minister are here, otherwise the soldiers and people in Suicheng would be... hey..."

"General Li, this time not only the king and the prime minister, but also all the generals and capable ministers in the court, and King Xu, King Xiang, and King Yue all agreed to supply the Weilu army. Your majesty is wise, and immediately ordered to send troops to protect the food. Go face to face with the Liao army."

"Your Majesty is truly a wise king!" Li Jilong also bowed his hands to the sky, and then said to De Fang, "Your Majesty, this time, I thought that His Majesty would send him to protect the food, but I didn't expect you to lead the army in person."

"My king was very angry at the Liao people's invasion of the south again, so I wanted to fight against the enemy again. That morning, I received a letter from the general, knowing that the general must have a good plan to defeat the enemy, so I decided to ask His Majesty for orders, and come again This Dingzhou is fighting side by side with the general, continuing the great victory of Tanghe, we will make the Liao bandits lose again under the swords and horses of our old enemies."

"Yes! My lord!" Li Jilong cupped his hands and said, "Your lord, you and the generals have worked hard all the way, please go to the mansion to rest first."

"Okay." Defang turned his head and said, "Jiajun, you have to work harder, let the soldiers who guard the grain rest, and stop the grain truck."

"Yes, my lord, please don't worry." Jia Jun saluted and turned to make arrangements.

It turned out that after the lack of food in the Weilu army area, the Liao army had already made movements. Li Jilong was very keen in observing the war, and knew that the Liao army had been looking for opportunities to avenge their defeat due to the defeat years ago. They would definitely use this to launch a southward invasion Within a few days, the Liao Kingdom sent more than a thousand troops to invade the Song Dynasty, and began to gather large troops on the border, and threatened to cut off the supply of food in Suicheng. This has been arguing for a long time, this has been the case for more than ten years, but the ministers of the DPRK and China cannot understand the suffering of the soldiers guarding the frontier, and they do not know the strategy of the war. Discussing the front line with the battle report is nothing more than talking on paper, so Li Jilong is very worried about repeating the same mistakes. The Dingzhou army defeated the elite of the Liao Kingdom last year, and their momentum was like a rainbow. If they can still fight this time, they will definitely be able to repel the Liao people, but in Dingzhou, it is difficult to report these things to Taizong
