A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 1,496 The troops are approaching the city

Li Rizun has been in anxiety ever since he received the news that the Song Dynasty army had crossed the border.

He has always thought that the Song Dynasty was a huge behemoth, but the Song Dynasty was not bad either.

Since becoming the crown prince, Li Rizun has been conquering east and west. He vowed to turn Dai Viet into a huge empire, such as that of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

For this reason, he changed the name of the country to Dai Viet, but people in the Song Dynasty still called this place Jiaozhi.

He often claimed that Dai Viet was the Celestial Kingdom, and he did not feel the slightest bit inappropriate. As for the Song Dynasty, it was a weak country, just a fat sheep.

Therefore, he continued to send people to harass the Song Dynasty, and even sent troops to attack, step by step to test the bottom line and strength of the Song Dynasty.

It started well, and they even broke into Xiping Prefecture of the Song Dynasty, killed Song officials and soldiers, and captured countless civilians, cattle and horses.

It was so refreshing to grab it that time!

But he paid more attention to the Song people's reaction to this.

He felt that there should be no reaction.

Historically, there was really no response. They went again the next year, and it was another ‘good harvest’ year.

But history has a deviation here.

Shen An was born. In Xiping Prefecture, a guy killed 20,000 elites he sent. The Jingguan still stands in Xiping Prefecture.

That blow hurt Dai Viet, and he decided to hibernate.

It was impossible for the Song people to attack by land. They were afraid of miasma. This was Li Rizun's biggest reliance, otherwise he would really not dare to keep teasing that behemoth.

But the navy of the Song Dynasty came forward, and the battle made Jiaozhi heartbroken.

No, mainly the rich and powerful.

That time, the large convoy of powerful people filled with money was looted by the Song navy, and the crying and howling in Shenglong City lasted for half a month.

The navy of the Song Dynasty was terrible, but the navy could not destroy the country!

So he felt at ease.

As a result, the Song Dynasty people came.

He said slowly, "The Song people dispatched an army of 50,000 to 60,000 people this time, coming all the way from Langzhou. The vanguard is the famous general Zhonge. I don't know who is leading the army, but the vanguard is Zhonge. I think the leader will be more powerful. "

Li Changjie drank Chen Yuanrong's drink, and immediately noticed that Li Rizun's mood was not right. He said solemnly: "But our army is waiting for work, and each unit can fight independently."

He turned around and said to the ministers: "Who has ever had good results against Dai Viet's enemies? We will continue to fight, we will poison the water sources, we will dig up the roads, we will sneak attack their baggage convoys... The Song people will It will be difficult to move even an inch, and there will be heavy casualties before we meet. If so, what should we be afraid of?

Someone dares to assert that the people of Song Dynasty cannot get past Tiande Mansion! In this way, our army can gather calmly and then go for reinforcements. By then, the Song army's food road will be constantly harassed, and the food road from Xiping Prefecture to here is long, and the Song people will face the threat of food shortage. "

Li Changjie said confidently: "At that time, it will be the opportunity for a decisive battle! The Song people can come...but they can't come back! Hahahaha!"

"Yes! In this battle, I, Vietnam, have ten victories, while the Song people have ten defeats." The person who said this was Li Bai.

At this moment, he looked upright, and there was a hint of Tang Ren in his trance.

——To be upright and awe-inspiring, it is best to overflow with it.

This is the way to promotion.

He learned it and continued to apply it, and now he is considered one of Li Rizun's confidants.

What else is there to learn from across the mountain to beat the cow, start from the people around Li Rizun, and let drop of water penetrate the stone...

Shen An had these methods at his fingertips and he regarded them as his examples.

The Duke is indeed omnipotent!

Li Rizun looked at him and asked: "What are the ten victories of Vietnam? What are the ten defeats of the Song Dynasty? Let me hear it."

this……

Li Bai just said it casually. This was an example Shen An gave him casually when he was teaching him how to be an official in Bianliang. It seemed to be something from the Three Kingdoms period of the Han Dynasty, and he had completely forgotten it!

But now Li Rizun inquires, and if he can't answer, he will be deceiving the emperor.

Li Bai was tangled in his heart, and someone happened to run outside and said with a frightened face: "Your Majesty... something is wrong!"

"What's the matter?" Li Rizun frowned, and Li Changjie immediately shouted: "Calm down! Calm down!"

The visitor knelt down and cried: "Your Majesty, Tiande Mansion has been captured by the Song Dynasty!"

"What?"

Li Rizun lost his composure and stood up, then sat back down immediately, but his breathing became rapid.

Someone exclaimed: "Once Tiande Mansion is lost, Shenglong City will no longer have a barrier, and the country will be in danger!"

"Calm down!" Li Changjie stopped everyone, and then asked the messenger, "How did you lose Tiande Mansion?"

The messenger said: "The pioneer cavalry of the Song Dynasty was led by Zhong'e. Our army formed a formation to fight. Zhong'e rushed forward and was surrounded by our army..."

This is a must-win situation!

Why did these idiots lose?

Li Rizun wanted to kill someone.

"At this moment, a group of cavalry from the Song Dynasty suddenly appeared behind our army, and defeated us in one surprise attack... We can't stop it! Those people are so vicious that we can't stop it..."

Li Rizun took a deep breath and then stretched out his hand.

"His Majesty!"

The chamberlain hurried over to support him and shouted: "Bring hot tea!"

Li Rizun leaned against him, breathing heavily, "Who? Who is commanding the army in Song Dynasty?"

The messenger raised his head and said, "It's Shen An!"

"It's him!" Li Changjie remembered the past when the 20,000 elites were left in Xiping Prefecture. That time it was Shen An and Zeng Gongliang who led the army.

Li Rizun said angrily: "Why did Shen An come to Dai Viet?"

"Your Majesty, it is useless to talk about this matter at this time." Li Changjie said calmly: "Shen An, I have thought about it. He does not follow the rules in his military use. He likes to defend first and then attack. Our army will continue to create troubles for them along the way. Trouble, he poisoned the water source and disturbed the grain route. He has broken through the Tiande Mansion at this moment. I think it is already at the end of his efforts. There must be many injuries and illnesses in the army. I think it is time for a decisive battle!"

Li Changjie closed his eyes, "We Dai Viet people never surrender to the enemy. When they come, they will find themselves facing countless enemies. Those common people are their enemies, and they will fight every tree and plant!"

Thumbs up!

Li Rizun smiled and said: "What the Taibao said is very true. What do you think?"

Li Bai smiled and said: "The ministers who were told by the Taibao are all moved. They wish they could lead the army to attack the Song people and defeat Shen An."

Li Changjie looked at him and said, "It doesn't matter if you go."

The two have been vying for favor recently, and Li Changjie's words are a run on them.

Li Bai felt his heartbeat speed up.

Damn it!

If someone can lead the army there, should he report it?

Then lead the army to the Song Dynasty's encirclement to die...

Then a certain person has achieved great success.

Great job!

Li Bai was happy in his heart. At this moment, he had completely forgotten his identity. He wished he could just kick the shabby hut in Dayue, knock it down, and then show his kindness to the new owner.

"Nachen..."

Just when he was about to agree, Li Changjie sneered: "You can lead an army even if you don't have the power to restrain a chicken?"

He is indeed a cunning one!

Li Bai lowered his head and sneered in his heart.

"alright."

The enemy army is in Tiande Mansion. If the cavalry attacks, there is no way that the Song people will be seen tomorrow.

The means of controlling ministers are actually similar, and maintaining balance is the purpose.

Li Rizun saw that Li Bai was defeated and asked, "What does Li Qing think?"

Li Bai thought about Shen An's urinary nature and felt that the man was extremely cold and cruel. Since he was approaching Tiande Mansion, he would definitely not give up if he did not capture Shenglong City.

So he said confidently: "I thought Shen An would come to Shenglong City."

An ally of Li Changjie sneered: "Then you mean that our methods are useless against Shen An?"

Li Bai didn't know, he only knew that Shen An was shameless than everyone else.

The shameless guy can always think of all his opponent's tricks.

So I believe him.

"yes!"

He said firmly: "Your Majesty, I have concluded that the methods mentioned by the Taibao are useless against Shen An."

"Your Majesty, I am ready to raise an army."

Li Changjie ignored Li Bai, which was the most fatal humiliation.

Li Bai smiled and looked very graceful.

Li Rizun nodded, "Let's go prepare ourselves."

He got up and went to the back, asking people to collect rare treasures and jade seals.

No matter what, he had to be prepared to escape.

"The navy of the Song Dynasty is cruising nearby. What are they waiting for?"

Li Rizun said to the queen: "They are waiting for Shen An's order. When Shen An's troops approach Thang Long City, the Song navy will attack. By then, Dai Viet..."

He shook his head and smiled bitterly.

The Queen comforted them and said: "For the people of Song Dynasty, the miasma in Dai Viet is an insurmountable barrier. Now that they have arrived at Tiande Mansion, they will probably suffer heavy casualties and almost run out of food and grass."

Li Rizun nodded, "If this were not the case, I would have prepared to take you south."

"Is that Shen An very powerful?" The queen supported him, "I heard that he was a rare all-rounder in both civil and military affairs among the Song Dynasty. His skill in writing sea questions has been learned by all scholars. There are also his records on stones, UU Reading www .uukanshu.netThe Baoyu and Daiyu make people toss and turn and find it difficult to sleep. He is a first-class talent!"

"He slaughtered 20,000 Dai Viet warriors in Xipingzhou and built a temple in Beijing. Such a person is not a talented person who only knows how to hold a pen. There are countless such talented people in the world, but they are useless."

"What is Jingguan?" The queen didn't read many history books. No, she didn't read the history books properly.

Li Rizun slapped the railing and said melancholy: "After the Han people kill their enemies, they like to use their corpses to pile up mountains, and then seal the soil and erect monuments, known as Jingguan, to intimidate the enemies."

"Terrible!" The queen turned pale, "These people are like demons!"

"That's why I want you to be ready."

Li Rizun felt depressed, and was immediately interrupted by the sound of footsteps.

"Your Majesty, the Song people are here."

Li Rizun's face turned red, he kicked the railing and cursed: "Am I afraid of his Shen An? Come here, I will make him a prisoner, and then go north to counterattack!"

He hurried forward.

"Did the Song people suffer heavy casualties?"

If so, he decided to counterattack to make Shen An look good.

The chamberlain shook his head, "I don't know."

After leaving the palace, the sergeant reporting the news was still there. Li Rizun asked: "Did the Song army suffer heavy casualties?"

The sergeant's face turned pale. Just when he was about to speak, he heard shouting from outside.

"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!"

The cheers were overwhelming, pouring directly into Shenglong City.

"This is……"

This kind of momentum is clearly full of morale!

Are there any heavy casualties there?

Li Changjie mistook me!
