Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 919
Pingqiang City, it was a bloody storm, everyone understands that the Song Army completed the strategic assembly, and the Xia Army stationed heavily in Pingqiang City. The danger of encirclement.

Gu Lihei sent Guantang as quickly as possible. Li Liangfu was extremely worried. Li Renzhong, the army supervisor, insisted on taking Pingqiang City.

As the battle continued, Xia Jun also captured several pass castles, Xiguan City and Beiguan City fell one after another, and they concentrated their forces to take Nanguan City.

However, Nanguan City is stationed in the 52nd brigade town. Li Shifu can be like no one in the [-] Xia army, and how can he do nothing with his backing on the strong city.

He did not limit his troops to the city, but put them on the plains. The chariot battalion and the horse army battalion were mixed. Backed by the huge arrow reserves of Pingqiang City, he maximized the advantages of offense and defense. The result was seven battles and seven victories. Xia Jun howled like ghosts and wolves.

The biggest result of the battle was that thousands of people defeated the Xia army's ten thousand soldiers.

The 52nd brigade town dispatched three chariot battalions, two horse battalions, and one infantry battalion. The chariots assaulted, the horse army covered their wings, and the infantry and cavalry swept behind. The standard tactics of the mechanized armored troops of later generations, Xia Jun is the opponent.

There was almost a one-sided massacre on the battlefield. The infantry guards of Nanguan City came out in full force to mop up the Xia army that had been disrupted by the 52nd brigade town. Facing the organized tactics of the Song army, the Xia army collapsed in one morning.

The reputation of the 52nd brigade town surprised Li Liangfu. He realized that what Gu Lihei said was true. The chariot soldiers of the Song Army were extremely powerful, which really attracted his attention. is fighting.

At this time, because Li Renzhong insisted on not withdrawing his troops, the Minister of Xia Guo was extremely dissatisfied. What time is it now, and they are still stationed in Pingxia City with heavy troops.

Of course, there were also people who realized that Li Renzhong's mind was nothing more than taking a chestnut out of the fire. They wanted to get away with it and win Dabao to fill in the qualifications for themselves, but they didn't know that they made a big mistake and violated Li Qianshun's wishes.

Li Qianshun was also very annoyed when he woke up. He realized that something was wrong. The attitude of Li Renzhong and Li Liangfu not to evacuate made him very embarrassed, but he also understood that withdrawing at this time would seriously damage the morale of the army and the people. Carrying it hard may wipe out the entire army and cause a greater crisis.

"Your Majesty, some officials have already impeached the prince and the capital commanding the army. Moreover, there are [-] military divisions in the old city, and the Southern Dynasty has gathered heavy troops. Our army will not be able to fight consecutively. I am afraid that something will happen." Express dissatisfaction, and also talk about the crisis that Jinxia is facing.

"King Pu is proficient in strategy, and Li Liangfu is a great general of the country. They lead troops to fight abroad, so don't move them easily. A hundred thousand troops can't take down a small town?" Li Qianshun's eyes were sunken, and he looked weak. He didn't want to lose face in front of his ministers. Can only be vague and sloppy.

"Your Majesty, the army of the Southern Dynasty is about to invade. Xiazhou is empty and there is Xiao Heda. I think it is better to withdraw the troops and go north." Wo Daochong is very worried about Xiao Heda. Li Renzhong and Li Liangfu's army is mostly in the north of the left chamber. Except for Xiao Heda Xiazhou Xiangyou Military Division, the other military divisions do not have many soldiers and horses, and they are easily used by the Song Army.

Li Qianshun's face was pale, and the corners of his mouth were trembling, obviously stimulated.Xiao Heda didn't show any dissatisfaction, but when his family and country were in crisis, he didn't worry too much about the descendants of the Khitan clan. The Xiazhou command army had tens of thousands of soldiers. Once something unpredictable happened, the entire eastern part of Yanzhou would be in chaos. I really dare not gamble!

"Your Majesty, since you can't take off the defense, why are you insisting on it? What's the point of gain and loss?" Wo Daochong sighed. He didn't approve of attacking Pingqiang city rashly, and now it's hard to get off.

Li Ganshun remained silent, his expression extremely depressed. He had regretted it long ago, but he had no regret medicine to take. However, apart from the soldiers, Pingqiang City was located in the northeast of the Jingsai Army Division. It had an important strategic position. The seventh and eighth battalions did not dare to go too deep, and even the fifth and sixth battalions did not dare to fight rashly.

Whether it is the morale of the army or the strategic response, he is very conflicted.

"The crisis in Xiazhou, Your Majesty is the master of martial arts and sages. You must be able to see the truth. The Southern Dynasty has not sent troops yet, so we hope to make plans early, so we can't miss this great opportunity." Wo Daochong said unyieldingly.

"Let me think about it." Li Qianshun was really in a dilemma. There were advantages and disadvantages, and it was the most difficult to choose. He closed his eyes with difficulty.

What made him hesitate the most was that Xiazhou had transferred a lot of troops, and there was Xiao Heda who made people worry, but he still had a fluke mentality.Knowing that Yuanhao implemented the implementation of all people's soldiers, Xia Guo had 60 million soldiers to fight, and more than [-] regular soldiers. The iron kite and the main force of the capture army have not moved. It seems that they have the ability to compete with the Song army.

Seeing that Li Qianshun was hesitant, Wo Daochong was furious. According to the information from all parties, there were more than a dozen military-level military ranks of the Imperial Army gathered in the Southern Dynasty, and more than [-] township troops were conscripted. The scale of the people's husband has surpassed that of the five-way crusade back then. It is obviously a war of destroying the country, and it cannot be underestimated anyway.

He does not deny that Li Xiaozhong and Li Liangfu have a restraining effect, but this restraint is mutual. They rely on more than 10 people to restrain you with [-] people, and they are still at a disadvantage. Why can't Li Qianshun understand?
Although, as the Song army continued to pull out points and the Northwest War officially started, Qu Duan still did not launch the main attack. It was not because he didn't want to, but because he was annoyed that the court had established the Dianqian Division's Northwest Camp.

His and Wang Xiu's views were surprisingly consistent, and they both disagreed with Dianqian Division forming an independent army to fight, causing duplication of tasks in the strategic direction and wasting precious support forces.

From the appointment of the general school, he also saw the tricks at a glance, and he also realized the deeper reasons. New military system.

Even Wang Xiu was silent, which made him unbearable. He did not hesitate to directly press down the date of the scheduled attack, and sent Wang Xiu a letter to Guantang. He had to figure things out. Hit the momentum.

The more time given to the party members, the more unfavorable it is for Da Song to launch a war. Time seems to be wasted little by little.

However, Wang Xiu was not anxious at all, and turned her gaze to Dahe Ferry.

At this time, Gao Sheng urged the troops to test a few times. As long as they did not get close to the pontoon, the Song army would never go out to fight.
