Chapter 632: Outwitting the Yanshi


Inside the camp of the Xia army outside the city.

A group of generals of the Xia army gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Hu'er sat on the handsome chair, and many generals were a little dissatisfied with Li Hu'er's eastward advance, one of the generals said to Li Hu'er: "Little prince, Your Majesty's military order is to let us stabilize the rear, but now the little prince will march 60,000 troops eastward, and the last general will not understand how the little prince intends to violate His Majesty's military order, but it is the crime of killing the head."

Facing the general's questioning, Li Hu'er said to General Xia with a cold light in his eyes: "Even if Your Majesty wants to cut off the general's head in the future, you are not qualified to question the general; This time, the eastward expansion of Yanshi City must be taken, which is the key to ensuring the full power of Luoyang City. ” Li Hu'er's words puzzled the generals, Li Hu'er walked to the map and said: "Yanshi is located in the east of Luoyang, adjacent to Luoshui in the south, and Beibi Mountain in the north, which is the last gateway of Luoyang in the east. ” "The last general is stupid, and I ask the little prince to punish him."

Xia Jiang immediately knelt down on one knee and pleaded guilty.

Li Hu'er helped General Xia up and said: "This battle is related to my Great Xia Empire's victory in the Central Plains, and I will not allow any mistakes; As far as the general knows, the commander of the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty is stationed in Yanshi City, as for how many defenders you have in Yanshi City, this general is not clear, but the generals don't have to worry, although Yanshi City is in such a critical strategic position, but Yanshi City is dilapidated, the city wall is low and there is no need to worry, we have 60,000 troops and a large number of firearms, it doesn't take three days to take Yanshi City; The herald ordered all battalions to immediately rearm for battle, and to obey the general's orders when to attack. ” "Yes, follow military orders" In the Yanshi city, the Song army camp and the Chinese army tent.

The tattered Chongxi was kneeling in front of the planter, crying to the planter: "Father is handsome, big brother he, big brother he" Seed Master Dao shouted tears in his eyes and said, "Tell me quickly, how Hangu Pass was lost" "Father, the Xia army appeared a weapon that could fly into the sky, they threw down a large earth-shattering thunder from the sky, the powder magazine was hit by the Xia army on the spot and exploded, our soldiers suffered heavy losses, the Xia army took the opportunity to attack the city, our army was attacked into the city by the Xia army before it had time to react, and even the eldest brother was shot by the Xia army's bed crossbow."

"What kind of weapon can even fly into the sky," said the Seed Master, frowning and suspicious; "If there is really such a weapon, then let alone Yanshi City, even Bishui Pass and Xingyang can't hold it."

Then the seed master Dao looked at the seed stream kneeling on the ground and ordered: "The Hangu Pass guard will lose the seed stream in succession Hangu Pass, Luoyang and other places, resulting in the collapse of the eastern defense line of our Great Song Dynasty, and from now on, all official positions will be dismissed and sent to the capital division to be handed over to His Majesty for disposal." ” "Great marshal, great marshal" The generals knelt on the ground and pleaded: "Although the prince of Chongxi is at fault, it is enough to dismiss the official position, why do you want to escort the Jingshi, please think twice."

"Bang" the seed master angrily slapped the handsome case; "Don't do it right away."

The generals saw that the seed master Dao was so decisive, and they could only watch the seed stream according to the order, it seemed that the seed master Dao was severely punished for the seed stream, but who knew the hard work of the seed master Dao's beloved son, and the seed stream was deposed from his official position and escorted to the Beijing division, in fact, the seed master was protecting the seed stream; The Great Song Jingshi is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and it can be said that it is the safest place in the entire Great Song Dynasty by the emperor's side, and the master has already lost a son, but he doesn't want to lose this son.

As for after Chongxi was escorted to Jiangning Mansion, Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty not only would not punish Chongxi, but would provide him with delicious food and drink, there was no way who would let Chongshi Dao hold heavy troops outside, and although Chongshi Dao was defeated and lost hundreds of thousands of elites of the Western Song Army, there were too few Song army commanders like Xiang Chongshi Dao who could fight with the Xia army, and there was also a proton side for Seed Dao to send his only son to Jiangning Mansion, so that Song Emperor Zhao Xu could rest assured.

The next day, Chongxi was escorted to Jiangning Mansion by a team of Song troops, and Chongshi Dao had been silently watching his son leave the city from a distance before returning to the camp; As soon as he returned to the camp, a Song general reported to the planter: "Report, report, report to the marshal, there is a person outside the west city who claims to be the commander of the Xia army, and the special envoy wants to meet the marshal." ” "Let him in," said the planter, sitting back in his chair.

Soon Li Hu'er's envoy arrived, and after entering, the envoy clasped his fists and saluted to the seed master: "The envoy of the prince of Chu of the Great Xia Empire pays a visit to Zhong Shuai. ” "The prince of Chu," the seed master said, with a questioning face; "How come Ben Shuai hasn't heard of it before" "There are many things that Zhong Shuai has not heard of," the envoy smiled; "My little prince led the troops for the first time, he made such a feat, and the future is immeasurable, today the envoy came to my little prince's military order, to make a deal with Zhong Shuai, the city wall of Yanshi is dilapidated, and my little prince led 300,000 troops to the city, and the city can be broken overnight, my little prince hopes that Zhong Shuai can give up Yanshi."

"Bang" the seed master angrily slapped the handsome case; "Wishful thinking."

Zhong Shuai was angry.

The envoy said with a smile on his face; "Zhong Shuai's eldest son, General Chong Hao's corpse is still in the hands of my little prince, if Zhong Shuai refuses to let out the Yanshi, I'm afraid that Ling Gongzi will not want to go into the earth for peace in his life, my prince will give Zhong Shuai a night to think about it, wait for a reply tomorrow morning, and say goodbye" After speaking, the envoy bowed his hand to the Seed Master, and then left; After listening to the envoy's words, the Seed Master Dao was stunned on the spot, and the Seed Master Dao then scolded angrily: "Despicable, shameless, the beast erector dares to do this; My son."

In the early morning of the next day, a letter written by the seed master Dao himself ordered people to be shot into the camp of the Xia army outside the city; When Li Hu'er saw this letter, he immediately smiled and said, "Send someone to hand over Chong Hao's body to Song Jun; Ordered the army to assemble outside the west gate of Yanshi City and stand by. ” "Yes, little prince" Outside the west city of Yanshi City, all the Song army wore linen and filial piety to greet Chong Hao, Chong Hao's body was packed in the coffin, and transported to the front of the Song army in a carriage, and the seed master walked to the carriage and touched the coffin and said: "My son, I swear to my father that I will destroy the summer thief in this life and avenge my son." ” "Little Prince, just return the body to the Song army, what if the Song army doesn't let you out of Yanshi City," a general asked Li Hu'er.

Li Hu'er sneered: "He dares, if he doesn't let out the Yanshi, he will guarantee to blow them up into a pile of minced meat." ” At this time, the only thirty-two hot air balloons in Li Hu'er's hands have been lifted into the air, and they are coming to Yanshi City, and the remaining three have unfortunately crashed in the Battle of Hangu Pass.

Seed Master Dao immediately ordered: "Order the whole army to evacuate Yanshi." ” "Why, Dashuai; Didn't you say that you were going to swear to defend the Yanshi before, why did you suddenly evacuate," a Song general said with great puzzlement.

The seed master said; "The defense of Yanshi City is poor, and our troops are insufficient, and the morale of the Xia army is like a rainbow, and there are new weapons to help, Yanshi City will be lost, in this case, there is no need to continue to defend, withdraw the army":
