Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

"Renli, are you talking about laughing?" After a while, Xia Chongzong laughed.

"It's a matter of great importance, how come the minister came to report it, why is it joking?" Li Renli said.

Li Renli's expression was extremely anxious and apprehensive, and Xia Chongzong couldn't help frowning!

"Nonsense! We don’t know what the current situation in Guanshan is! Now Guanshan is facing three threats. Our Jurchen army is in Guanshan, and the Han emperor in Jiangnan still has 600,000 troops at Guanshan. Shan! Under such circumstances, how dare the Emperor Xuanwu of Guan Shan go north? Is he crazy? Does he not want to close Shan?" Wan Yanzong scolded angrily from the side.

"Your Majesty, Lord Wanyan, what I said is true!" Li Renli said with sweat beads on his forehead.

"How is this possible?" Xia Chongzong frowned.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are in charge of the affairs of the Privy Council! In the morning, a group of defeated soldiers entered the Privy Council. They all came from Hongzhou, Youzhou, and Jianing! Originally, the ministers didn't believe it, but just Just now, the prefects and guards of Yanzhou sent people to say that the Song Army was marching towards Yanzhou! Now, I am afraid that the Song Army has surrounded Yanzhou! At this time, the ministers have to believe!" Li Renli said .

"How is it possible? This is too ridiculous!" Wan Yan Zongqian frowned at this moment!

But what Li Renli said was so conclusive that at this moment Xia Chongzong and Wan Yanzong were cautious in their hearts! But they think hard and still find it incredible!

"Where are the broken soldiers? Where are the messengers sent by Yanzhou City? Let them see me immediately!" Xia Chongzong said.

"My minister, let them come! In fact, they are now outside the palace waiting for your majesty to call!" Li Renli said.

When something like this happened, Xia Chongzong and Wan Yan Zonggan didn't even bother to eat. At the moment everyone returned to their seats in the palace, waiting for the arrival of the broken soldiers, generals, and messengers!

After a quarter of an hour, hundreds of people appeared outside the palace! More than a dozen of these hundreds of people are still neatly dressed, they are the messengers of Yanzhou City! The remaining people are extremely embarrassed, they are defeated soldiers and generals everywhere!

At the moment Li Renli first walked in with the messenger from Yanzhou City, and these dozens of messengers knelt on the ground! The leader was a school lieutenant. At this moment, the school lieutenant said: "Your Majesty, you sirs, the Song army has a large number of troops. They have already taken down Hongzhou and Youzhou. Therefore, General Rendo ordered us to come to Xingqing Mansion to communicate! Although General Rendo was confident that he could hold Yanzhou City, it was difficult to drive the Song army out! So he asked the court for assistance!"

"Is this true?" Xia Chongzong still couldn't believe it!

At this moment, Li Renli had already walked in with a few ruined generals! These ulcers looked exhausted to the extreme, one of them had his arm broken, and the others had wounds on their bodies! Their eyes are dull and their lips are chapped, and they are also kneeling on the ground at this moment!

Seeing them, Xia Chongzong immediately knew that they had gone through a great battle!

"Song Jun really invaded?" Xia Chongzong said anxiously.

"It's true! The Song Army really invaded!" a ruined general said.

"How many people are there in the Song Army? Is it just a small group of enemies? You don't have a dike, and this is a failure?" Wan Yan Zongqian coldly shouted.

"The number of the Song army is extremely large, I'm afraid there are hundreds of thousands!" A general said.

Once the army fails in combat, in order to shirk its responsibilities, it often exaggerates the number of enemies! The same is true for Xixia Defeated General at this moment! Of course, it is sometimes difficult to judge the number of enemies on the battlefield! Whether it is an army of more than one hundred thousand or an army of hundreds of thousands, from a distance, it is crowded with people! At first, this collapse really felt that it was hundreds of thousands, but as he kept thinking along the way, the impression in his heart became more and more blurred, and now he also vaguely felt that hundreds of thousands might be right! Besides, hundreds of thousands of people attacked the city that day, and perhaps there were other Song troops in the distance! So he feels that he is not wrong to say hundreds of thousands!

"Hundreds of thousands? How could it be possible?" Wan Yan Zonggan couldn't believe it.

"Your Majesty, this lord, there are hundreds of thousands! We can't be mistaken!" The general said.

"Tell me, how many people are they?" Xia Chongzong looked at the rest of the defeated generals and said.

"Your Majesty, it's indeed hundreds of thousands!" Those ruined generals said one after another.

At this moment, Xia Chongzong has already felt something wrong. If hundreds of thousands of people really enter Xixia, I am afraid that the entire eastern part of Xixia will fall! Even Yanzhou City, I am afraid it may not be able to stop the hundreds of thousands of Song Army!

Li Renli had already called in the defeated soldiers outside one after another, and Xia Chongzong asked carefully one by one! Some of those soldiers said they were hundreds of thousands, and some said they were hundreds of thousands! But in any case, there is no doubt that the Song Army has a large number of soldiers and horses!

Moreover, Hongzhou City only persisted for an hour, and the areas of Youzhou and Jianing also persisted in one or two hours before they fell. These are enough to witness the number and strength of the Song army!

"How is it possible? Under such circumstances, how dare Song Jun go northward?" Wan Yan Zongqian frowned at this moment.

"Master Wanyan, it seems to be true! Song Jun really entered my Xixia! Now I am facing hundreds of thousands of Song Jun attack!" Xia Chongzong was fidgeting at this moment!

Wanyan Zonggan nodded, hearing the words of these broken soldiers, generals, and messengers with his own ears, and seeing the embarrassing appearance of these broken soldiers and generals, he also had to admit that the Song Army had indeed entered Xixia! Xixia is currently facing threats!

"Come on, let Brother Cha come right away!" Xia Chongzong shouted loudly!

Not long after, a Xixia general entered the Yinchuan Hall! This Xixia general is not very tall, but his body looks unusually strong. He has three long beards and his face is flushed! He is the famous general in the history of Xixia, Richard Ge, because his appearance is similar to that of Guan Erye, he is called "Little Guan Yu" by Xixia people! He is a child of the royal family. He entered the Xixia army at the age of more than ten years, starting from the lowest level soldier until he became the commander of Xixia! In the early years, he had participated in the war between Xixia and the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty! Later, Jurchen invaded Xixia, and he also led a large army to fight Jurchen, but he was far from Jurchen's opponent! But even so, he is still the first person in the Xixia army now, the main commander of Xixia!

"I will see your Majesty in the end!" Richard Ge knelt and said.

"Brother Cha, you immediately command the army to Yanzhou City!" Xia Chongzong said.

"Ah!" Richard Ge was taken aback, and said, "Why is this?"

He just arrived, and he still doesn't know what happened in the East!

"Song people are invading aggressively! Now we must resist the Song army!" Xia Chongzong said.

"Song people are aggressively invading? How is this possible?" Brother Richard was also in disbelief, staying there!

"Renli, tell him!" Xia Chongzong said.

Right now, Li Renli stepped forward and told Richard Brother the news of Song Jun’s invasion! Brother Richard was also unbelievable. At the moment, Li Renli caused the soldiers, generals, and messengers to describe the situation in the east to Richard! Richard Ge asked carefully, his face was getting worse and worse! His battlefield experience is extremely rich, and he can naturally judge that what these people said is basically correct! The only thing in doubt is the number of Song Jun, but even according to the smallest estimate, it is more than 150,000! It is very likely that, as these soldiers said, it has reached hundreds of thousands!

"How is it possible? Guanshan has an army of Jurchens and an army of hundreds of thousands of Emperor Jianyan. How can the little emperor of Hanzhong dare to go north? Are they not going to shut Shan?" At this moment, Brother Richard couldn't help but send out this. doubt!

"Brother Cha, this is not the time to consider this! You must immediately command the army to advance eastward and resist the Song army! If not, I am afraid that Xiazhou and Yinzhou will be occupied by the Song army! At that time, half of the country will not be ours. In your hand!" Xia Chongzong said.

"Your Majesty, the general will ignite the army and head east! Now there are a total of 300,000 troops around Xingqing Mansion, and the Weichen will lead 250,000 people to the east! In addition, Xiping Mansion, Huaizhou, Jingzhou There are also garrisons in various places. The final general asks your Majesty to immediately order the garrisons in these places to also go east at the same time! Weichen will join them in the area of ​​Baichi City, so that the number of troops can exceed 300,000! It is enough to resist the Song army!" Tao.

"Okay! I'll let the Privy Council make an order!" Xia Chongzong nodded!

"Your Majesty, I would like to go with General Chage!" At this moment, Wanyan Zonggan stood up and said.

"The battlefield is extremely dangerous, what does Master Wanyan go there for?" Xia Chongzong said in disbelief.

"The movement of the Han people is really weird! I really can't believe that the Han people dare to go north and enter Xixia at this time, so I have to go to the east to take a look! If I can catch the captives of the Han people, I should ask, they depend on it. What method has restrained our Jurchen army!" Wanyanzong said dryly.

"Master Wanyan meant that they used tricks to contain your country's army?" Richard Richard said.

"Naturally this is the case! Moreover, they not only restrained my Jurchen army, but also restrained the Jiangnan Emperor Jianyan's army! If not, they would not dare to go north at all!" Wanyan Zongqian deserves to be Wanyan Aguda's son, tiger father. Without dogs, he has analyzed the stakes in a short time!

"It must be so!" Richard Ge nodded!

When Richard and Wanyan Zonggan came out of the palace, Richard immediately ordered the army to assemble!

However, the quality of the Xixia army is too average. From noon until dusk, the army is now assembled! It was already dark, Richard hesitated for a long time, and decided to send troops again tomorrow morning!

"General Chage, the military situation is urgent. There should be no delay at this time. You should enter the army immediately!" Wan Yanzong said dryly.

"It's getting dark! At this time, even if I order to advance, the soldiers will not agree!" Richard Richard said.

A ridiculous smile appeared on Wanyan Zonggan's face. In his opinion, there is too much difference between the Xixia army and the Jurchen army! If it were the Jurchen army, it would definitely move east without hesitation at this time! Of course, the Jurchen army is not as good as it was ten years ago, but even so, they are still better than the Xixia army!

"Three hundred thousand army, I don't know if we can defeat Song Jun!" After a while, Wan Yan Zong said again.

"Definitely be able to defeat the Song Army! Back then, I also fought with the Western Army in Guanshan, and the Western Army was nothing but the same. There was a gap with our Xixia Army. What the Han people rely on is just a strong city! Now the little emperor of the Han has taken the throne, and the Western Army. It's not our opponent! And, according to my estimation, the Song Army will definitely not stay in the territory of Xixia! Although they used conspiracy and tricks to contain your country's army and the Jiangnan army, but the conspiracy and tricks cannot last long after all. They must always keep your country’s army and Jiangnan army from attacking Guanshan! Therefore, we only need to step by step and don’t engage in decisive battles with them. They will inevitably retreat over time! At that time we followed them and chased them down. , Will definitely be able to wipe out the invading enemy!" Richard Richard said.

After Brother Richard finished speaking, Wanyan Zonggan was stunned. After a while, he nodded and said, "Yes! General Li is indeed a veteran, Zonggan admires him!"

Wanyan Zonggan has been in the Jin Dynasty court all these years, and he has participated in very few wars! Although his strategic vision is good, he is not as good as Richard Ge in pure tactical use! After listening to Richard's words, he has more confidence in Richard!

In the early morning of the second day, Brother Richard and Wanyan Zongqian led an army of two hundred and fifty thousand Xixia to the east! This 250,000 army is a mixture of infantry and cavalry, with infantry and cavalry each accounting for half! In addition to the army, there was also a long team that carried food and supplies! The marching speed of the army is extremely slow, and the ancient roads are difficult, and the weather is abnormally cold. It will take at least half a month to rush to Yanzhou from here!

At this moment in Xi'an on Qinfeng Road in northern Shaanxi, the coach of Jingyuan Road, Zhao Zhe, is in the government office!

The military headquarters of the Jingyuan Army is being established here, and countless staff officers are also here now!

Information from all over the place is continuously sent here, especially the information from Xixia is delivered immediately!

The intelligence of the Forbidden Army of Northern Shaanxi and the Huanqing Army to attack Hongzhou, Youzhou, and Jianing in the north has been sent, and the intelligence of their upcoming attack on Yanzhou has also been sent! Of course, communication conditions in this era are extremely backward. When the intelligence was sent, Zhao Zhe knew that the Forbidden Army and Huanqing Army in Northern Shaanxi had already conquered Yanzhou!

At this moment, more than ten commanders under the Jingyuan Army have already arrived here!

Holding the intelligence, Zhao Zhe glanced over the more than ten commanders below, saying: "The Forbidden Army in Northern Shaanxi and the Huanqing Army have conquered several cities in Xixia! The capital of Xixia must have received the news, and now the main force in Xixia should have recovered. Depart from Qing Mansion! Let's set off immediately to Xing Qing Mansion!"

Excited expressions appeared on the faces of the army commanders below! At the end of last year, they had already received the order of the staff headquarters, ready to go north to enter Xixia at any time! At the beginning of this year, they received an order from Zhao Chen, ordering them to be ready at all times. Once they got the news of the Forbidden Army in Northern Shaanxi, it was when they entered Xixia! They have been waiting for Zhao Zhe's order, and now the order has finally been issued!

"Within a quarter of an hour, a hundred thousand troops will go northward with all their strength! Don't carry any luggage, go up lightly! Come to Xixia Xingqing Mansion in the shortest time at all costs!" Zhao Zhe said.

"The final commander is waiting for his orders!" More than a dozen army commanders stood up one after another and said.

"Remember, this battle is related to the national destiny, and we must not slacken our efforts! If this battle is won, the North of the Song Dynasty will have no borders, and the Song Dynasty will no longer have to worry about Xixia going south! If this battle is defeated, I am afraid that the entire Guanshan will be lost! Hanzhong, Chuan and Shu were also at risk, and the real country was ruined at that time! So, please, never fail!" Zhao Zhe also stood up at this moment, he bent down, and bowed to these army commanders.

"Marshal, rest assured, even if our Jingyuan Army is all dead, we must guarantee victory in this battle!" said a commander below.

"Your Majesty has entered Xixia now! Your Majesty looks at us from a distance, and we will never fail!" Another general said.

"Very good! Assemble the army immediately and set off!" Zhao Zhe said.

The Jingyuan Army originally had 50,000 people. Later, 100,000 young people entered the Jingyuan Army. Now the total strength of the Jingyuan Army is 150,000! It's just that in addition to Xixia, there is Tubo in the west. Of course, Tubo in this era is no longer the Tubo Empire of the Tang Dynasty! After hundreds of years, the Tubo Empire has long since collapsed, and now Tubo has become countless tribes! The relationship between the Song Dynasty and the Tubo tribes has always been very good, but even so, the Jingyuan Army must keep enough soldiers and horses to guard against the Tubo tribes, and they can use only one hundred thousand troops!

From the moment the military order was issued, in just a quarter of an hour, one hundred thousand troops moved! They did not carry any baggage, each of them only carried ten days' worth of dry food, and then they headed towards Xixia! In contrast, the Xixia army took a full afternoon to complete the team, and then rested for another night before setting off. The difference between the military qualities of the two sides is evident! Of course, the Jingyuan army has been preparing for the battle of Xixia. Although the Xixia army is also preparing to go south to Guanshan, it is not so urgent!
