Compete for the Song Dynasty

Wang Pang's estimate of the front was right. No matter how young and energetic Li Liangzuo was, when he came to lead an army of [-] out of Weizhou Castle for a few hundred miles, and saw the confrontation between Jiao Siluo and Luo, his heart was half cold.

In June and July, the sky changed as it said, the sun was still shining just now, and after a while, it was already covered with dark clouds. Li Liangzuo led his team to rush up the nearby mounds, and amidst the thunderstorm, they could still see the dark and overwhelming camp on the opposite side. The army has already set up their positions and is waiting for him to come. According to a rough estimate of the camp, there are two or three times as many soldiers as himself.In the camp, the banners were unfurled, and the army of Jiao Siluo was majestic.

A flash of lightning flashed by, and the horses of the guards beside Li Liangzuo took a few steps back. Li Liangzuo turned around and saw the soldiers and horses around his army with a look of fear.

General Manbaa Tima came to Li Liangzuo and said that seeing the situation on the opposite side, he knew that his chances of winning were very small after many battles.Before Manbaa could speak, he heard drums beating loudly, mixed with the sound of no thunder, and the formation from the opposite corner suddenly divided into left and right, and a group of cavalry rushed out from the middle.

Li Liangzuo and Manbaa watched intently, no, it was not a group of cavalry.The opening of the Jiaosi Luo array became wider, and the cavalry behind them rushed out like a tide and rushed towards them.Man Baa hurriedly looked back, only to find that Li Liangzuo's troops hadn't been lined up yet. [

Looking at Li Liangzuo again, the emperor gave an order in desperation and rushed over with a team like loose sand.Manbaa was anxious, the emperor was too young and reckless, he hurriedly raised his sword and urged his horse to catch up with him to escort him.

As soon as Li Liangzuo's team met with Jiaosiluo's team, they couldn't hold on anymore. Jiaosiluo's army was about to submerge Li Liangzuo's team like a flood. The cavalry was charging again, almost in the blink of an eye, and at the intersection of the fronts, there was a dazzling sound of metal, the sound of horseshoes, the roar of thunder, and the thunder of war drums, covering up the thrilling screams of the soldiers.

As soon as Li Liangzuo's vanguard cavalry faced off, several people fell off their horses!Jiaosiluo's cavalry ranks were still dense, and even if their companions fell off their horses, the powerful soldiers in the front ranks would not even take a look at them. Let Zuo's team rush!Even if Li Liangzuo has three heads and six arms, he is still out of a pack of wolves, he only has to rely on his bravery to parry, and he is already sweating profusely at this time.

Seeing that the young emperor of Xixia was about to die on the battlefield, the veteran Manbaa led his troops to rush to Li Liangzuo's horse, and while blocking the cavalry for him, he used the Xixia soldiers to cover Li Liangzuo's retreat.Li Liangzuo was startled, hated and helpless, turned his horse's head and ran back, the rear team of the Xixia army changed to the front team, and the army was defeated like a tide.

Li Liangzuo ran for dozens of miles in one breath. Looking back, the sparse cavalry troops retreated with him, and the slow-moving infantry resisted Jiao Siluo in the back, while retreating in a broken army.At this time, it was pouring rain, and Li Liangzuo's vision was blurred, and it was easy to see the veteran Man Baa following up. Li Liangzuo almost threw himself into Man Baa's arms as if seeing a relative.

The heavy rain blocked Jiao Siluo's pursuit, allowing Li Liangzuo to take a breather.Seeing that it was getting dark, he rested his troops and realized that there were only [-] to [-] left in the [-] troops brought out. Li Liangzuo regained his composure. Fortunately, this was much better than the worst plan he had just made. up.

When it got dark, the rain stopped, and the Xixia troops who had just experienced a life-and-death disaster were exhausted by the heavy rain and their morale was low.Among the camps that had been set up, there were mournful sounds of injuries and illnesses from time to time.

Before dinner was finished, Jiao Siluo's troops who were charging Xing's head had already been reorganized, and another sneak attack was launched. Fortunately, Man Baa reminded Li Liangzuo this time.This night, behind Li Liangzuo, there was the sound of fighting all over the sky, and the torches of Jiao Siluo's army illuminated the blood-colored night. When it was daylight, Li Liangzuo returned to the huge castle in Weizhou that Manbaa had ordered to build in advance.

The gate of the city gate firmly blocked Jiao Siluo's troops outside the city, and Li Liangzuo counted the troops this time in shock.This time there were only [-] to [-] troops left.Li Liangzuo stood on the top of the city, and saw the Jiaosiluo army approaching the city, the camp was not only in chaos, it seemed that the opponent's soldiers were not injured at all.Seeing that Li Liangzuo's legs trembled slightly, he was not afraid, but lucky.

Li Liangzuo hastily summoned General Manbaa. He heard that the city has already prepared enough food and grass. Now it is a long journey for the Jiaosiluo army. The opponent has a large number of troops. It will be difficult to supply after a long time. As long as we can persist for ten days, Jiao Siluo's heart loves to fight and must withdraw.

Seeing Manbaa's confident description, Li Liangzuo felt relieved this time. His merits are no higher than the Savior. Li Liangzuo bowed deeply to Manbaa and said: "Thanks to General Manbaa this time, otherwise I would already be a A lone soul on the battlefield."

Seeing Li Liangzuo's actions like this, Manbaa was moved in his heart, and he hurriedly returned the courtesy: "Your Majesty, you don't have to do this. This humble minister should protect the safety of the Holy One, and do my best to be loyal." Good defense works best.

During the scorching summer, the weather was hot, and Jiaosiluo's army was numerous. This time, Jiaosiluo's son Dong Zhan was leading the team. He saw that the Xixia army had already been defeated. The huge castle in front of him was really easy to defend and difficult to attack. After a few days of attacking, he was afraid that Xixia's reinforcements would catch up. In less than ten days, Dong Zhan was in love with the battle and ordered his troops to retreat.

Standing on the top of the castle in Weizhou, Li Liangzuo watched Jiao Siluo's troops recede slowly like an ebb tide, and he and Man Baa let out a long sigh of relief.Li Liangzuo admired Manbaa's foresight in his heart, so he said gratefully: "This time, thanks to General Man, I made preparations here in advance, otherwise my life will be over, and Xixia will be in danger~"

Seeing what Li Liangzuo said, Manbaa saw Jiao Siluo's troops withdrawing, seeing that the time was right, he took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Li Liangzuo with both hands.

Li Liangzuo didn't know it was He Xin that Man Baa had handed over. At this time, he was already a shadow of a snake. He was really worried about the bad news. When he opened it, it turned out that it was written by Wang Pang to Man Baa.It is recommended to choose a place in advance to fortify in advance on the way to send troops.

After Li Liangzuo read this letter, he suddenly burst out laughing with a sense of helplessness in his smile. After laughing, Li Liangzuo looked up to the sky and sighed: "Unexpectedly, it was Wang Pang who saved my life!" At this time, he had already convinced Wang Pang , Thinking of the sincerity of the previous two times, I secretly felt guilty, and I was willing to admit defeat at this point, and just waited to return to Xixia to listen to the king's plan on the matter of trade.

He thought well, but he didn't know that a bloody storm was brewing in Xingqing Mansion.The news of Li Liangzuo's defeat spread to Xingqing Mansion, and the streets of Xingqing Mansion were full of Yiwei Division's troops.When Ji Laqing brought people to the mansion to look for Wang Pang, and planned to detain Wang Pang, Wang Pang seemed to have evaporated, and he left Xingqing Mansion together with his two guards.

Wang Pang did not go far. No one would have guessed that he was in the Chengtian Temple Pagoda not far from Xingqing Mansion. The Chengtian Temple Pagoda was in a Buddhist temple. The brick pavilion-style tower is octagonal.When the breeze blows, the pagoda bells jingle, showing the tranquility of the temple.From the tower, you can have a panoramic view of Xingqing Mansion. [

People in Xixia believed in Buddhism since Li Yuanhao, and this was the best shelter arranged by several disciples of He Xingyuan for Wang Pang.Wang Pang pinched his fingers and estimated that Li Liangzuo would be back soon.

At this time, Liang Luoyao in the palace heard the news that she was about to pass on Yi's decree to summon a group of officials, but Man Chang suddenly broke into Funing Palace.Liang Luoyao was a little annoyed when she saw Manchang's trespassing, but just about to get angry, she heard Manchang say: "Queen Qi, there is a great chaos in the city of Xingqing Prefecture, and Siji Lalei of Yiwei led troops to close the city gate, in order to protect the safety of the queen and the crown prince." , the minister has ordered the inner palace to be sealed off. Now please move the empress to Qianlong Palace to take care of the prince."

When Liang Luoyao heard that the crown prince was in Manchang's hands, her lungs were about to explode. Without the crown prince, she would have given no orders to the officials of Xixia. Where would the prime minister and Ji Lalei have died at the critical moment.

State Prime Minister Liang Yibu was being watched by Li Xili at this time, and Wang Pang kept hinting that no matter how stupid Li Xili was, he knew that the emperor was not in Xingqing Mansion, and he sent troops to defeat him.Right now, the task of watching over the Prime Minister of the country has become the focus of Li Xili's work.

Now only Ji Lailei is stupidly waiting for the cooperation in the palace, leading his troops to close the gate of Xingqing Mansion, standing on the top of the city, he is proudly watching Li Liangzuo's remnant army line up from far to near Under the city.

Manbaa rushed to the front of the formation and shouted at the top of the city: "The Holy Driver is returning to the court, why did you close the city gate?"

Ji Lalei took a look at the [-] to [-] remnants of Li Liangzuo in the city. Not to mention the same strength as his Yiwei Division, they had no time to mobilize the troops from the surrounding prefectures, not to mention that the queen has a prince in control. If Li Liangzuo is abolished, then the coup will be a success.

Ji Lai laughed loudly, and shouted triumphantly: "Master Man, you are so confused, and now Sheng Jia is waiting to be fed in the palace. You go and tell Li Liangzuo, let him announce his abdication, maybe you can return to the palace to enjoy Let's enjoy family fun."

Manbaa gritted his steel teeth, this shameless man who sneaked up behind him, he wished he could fly to the top of the city and grab Ji Lailei's head off.

Li Liangzuo also knew that there was a change in the Xingqing mansion at this time, he looked suspiciously from the team to the city, thinking about his wife and children in the palace, and more worried about his throne. Impatient.I want to forcibly siege the city, but I don't want my hard-earned foundation to be destroyed.

Li Liangzuo's soldiers were even more anxious, and most of them still had small families in Xingqing Mansion, and their hearts were in turmoil for a while.At this critical moment, one of the Yiwei Division's elite soldiers behind Ji Lalei broke out and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, don't panic, Wu Su is here!"

It was too late to say it, and then it was too fast, accompanied by the shouting, Wu Su waved the steel knife in his hand, and jumped out from behind Ji Lalei.As soon as Ji Lalei heard the sound, he turned his head, and before he opened his mouth, Wu Su chopped off his head with a knife. Wu Su picked up Ji Lalei's head and threw it over the wall. Ji Lalei's dead body fell to the ground, and the city was in chaos At the same time, a cannon rang, and people rushed out of Feilongyuan from the imperial city to rescue him.

The team of Yiwei Division was in chaos immediately, and Man Baa shouted loudly: "Soldiers in the city, open the city gate to forgive your sins, so as not to kill each other."

The Hulala city gate was opened wide, and the soldiers hurriedly knelt down to welcome the Holy Majesty back to court.Li Liangzuo glanced at Wu Su at the top of the city, and saw that Wu Su standing on the top of the city was very majestic.

Where is Wu Su's prestige, he was scared stupid by himself, Yiwei Division usually does not fight, and many of them have never killed anyone.At this time, Wu Su's legs were already stiff with fright, not because he didn't want to kneel, but because his nerves were numb. He was still trembling slightly at the top of the wall, but it made Li Liangzuo remember Wu Su's name.
