The Song army retreated, the crisis in Wuxi City has been temporarily lifted, in just two days, the Song army and the Xia army have had several confrontations, the Song army is not without a chance to win, but in the face of the Yan King Li Qing's serial set, Song Emperor Zhao Xu has been led by Li Qing by the nose, so far caused the battle of Wuxi Song army lost more than 100,000 people, and there is a large amount of grain and grass.
The losses of the Xia army are actually not small, but most of the losses are Japanese soldiers, now Li Qing's hands are less than 10,000 Japanese soldiers, and the Xia army cavalry has also lost more than 3,000 people, in order to ensure the city defense of Wuxi, Li Qing has transferred 10,000 Japanese soldiers from Huishan; Of course, Li Qing didn't care about the number of casualties of the Japanese soldiers, what Li Qing cared about was the city defense of Wuxi, of course, the huge efforts of the Japanese soldiers also won the reward, and the food of the Japanese soldiers was at least the same as that of the Xia army.
"Lord Wang, the sentry cavalry has reported that the Song army has withdrawn."
Zhou Hai said with a smile after entering the big tent of the Chinese army; "Song Jun's grain, grass and baggage were all burned by my second brother, even the trough ship was burned, and not even a single ash was left for Song Jun."
"In the past few days, we have seized the time to strengthen the city defenses, and although the Song army has withdrawn, we can't be idle, send a small force to attack and harass the Song army, and catch some people back."
"Yes, the last general will arrange it."
"Scatter the Japanese soldiers too, don't let them be idle, it's easy to cause trouble for Lao Tzu if they are idle."
"Yes, the last will understand" Besides, Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty withdrew his troops and returned to Changzhou in anger and unwillingness, and he would not succeed if he did not withdraw; There is nothing left of grain and grass and camps, if you don't withdraw the Song army, you will have to stay and drink the northwest wind, but this battle is still a great harvest for Song Emperor Zhao Xu, this is the first battle commanded by Zhao Xu personally, although it was defeated, but Zhao Xu learned a lot, that is, this tuition is too expensive, Zhao Xu important to understand that the battle is not as simple as he imagined, not to fight with a blood to be able to kill the enemy, not just by virtue of the number and combat effectiveness of the army, the key lies in the strategy of the leader.
After returning to Changzhou, Zhao Xu learned from the pain, on the one hand, he mobilized grain and grass, and on the other hand, he reorganized the army; At the same time, Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty ordered Li Bao to be transferred back from Dongsha Island, Li Bao was a naval general, and he was also a person who was now in a military position to give Zhao Xu advice, and at the same time Zhao Xu also asked Li Bao to hear Li Bao's views on the situation in the south of the Yangtze River.
A few days later, Changzhou City commanded the embassy.
"The last general Li Bao greeted Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live" After seeing Li Bao, Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty immediately stepped forward to help Li Bao up and said, "Aiqing has worked hard all the way, come and sit down." ” "Your Majesty, I don't know what the summons will come back about."
A few days ago, I led an army of 400,000 to the south, but I was defeated by Li Qing in just two days and had to withdraw to Changzhou; Aiqing, how do you say this battle will be fought in the future?"
"Your Majesty is worry-free, in fact, it is very simple to defeat the Xia army, as long as Your Majesty orders the last general to lead the naval division to block the entire coast, the Xia army will be trapped and killed on the mainland, and at that time, Your Majesty will lead hundreds of thousands of troops to the south to fight a war of attrition with the Xia army, and the Song army will be wiped out in a few months."
"What do you mean is to lead the Jiangnan Naval Division out of the Yangtze River."
"Your Majesty, once the sea route is blocked, the Xia army will become a turtle in the urn, and it will be a matter of time before they are eliminated."
"No."
Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty immediately objected: "Although the Xia Army Naval Division was defeated, but you know how the main force of the Xia Army's Naval Division is, once the Jiangnan Naval Division leaves the Yangtze River and goes south, what should the main force of the Xia Army's Naval Division take the opportunity to sneak attack Once Jiangning is besieged by the Xia Army's Naval Division, the consequences are unimaginable, I absolutely disagree." ” "Your Majesty, the main force of the Xia Army Naval Division has been completely wiped out by the last general, and now there are only a few remnants left in the Xia Army Naval Division, and Weichen's life is guaranteed, and the Xia Army Naval Division will definitely not go against the Yangtze River."
"If the main force of the Xia Army's naval division is really wiped out, then Li Qing will not quickly withdraw his troops, and dare to launch a counterattack against me; It would be good if you led the sailors to firmly defend the mouth of the Yangtze River, and as for the Xia army, I would deal with it. ” "Your Majesty, if you want to completely drive the Xia army into the sea, Your Majesty must not divide the troops, concentrate the absolute superior forces to go south, and the Xia army will not dare to leave the coastline too far if it is alone."
"I know that you have stayed in Changzhou for the past few days to write a battle plan for me."
Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty said to Li Bao.
"Yes, Wechen takes the order" After leaving the command embassy, Li Bao sighed and said: "It's a pity that such a great fighter plane was missed in vain, the Xia army and the naval division were defeated, and Li Qing not only did not retreat but stepped up the attack, which is really clever."
On the other side, Li Qing, the king of Yan, will soon face a huge problem here; On this day, Zhou Hai led hundreds of cavalry to the area west of Huishan to plunder, where Zhou Hai encountered a caravan; His subordinates reported to Zhou Haiyu: "General, you see that a caravan is heading north. ” "Go, intercept them and escort them back to Wuxi City, this trip is not in vain."
"Yes, let's go."
"Your Excellency, you see it's our cavalry."
"They must be His Royal Highness King Yan's subordinates, don't resist for a while, follow them and you will definitely be able to find His Royal Highness King Yan."
"Yes, my subordinates understand" The cavalry of the Xia army quickly surrounded them, and after checking the goods loaded in the car, the officer led by them said domineeringly: "Take them all away, and escort them away." ” Under the escort of Xia Jun, the envoy of Emperor Xia entered Wuxi City smoothly, and as soon as he entered the city, the envoy spoke: "Who of you has the greatest official rank here?"
” Zhou Hai walked up to the envoy and asked, "Lao Tzu has the highest official rank, what do you want to do, boy?"
"I am the envoy of Emperor Xia, you go and take me to see His Royal Highness King Yan."
"If you want to say that you are Emperor Song's envoy for peace, Ben Jiang may believe it, and Emperor Xia's envoy will make you Meng Laozi," Zhou Hai laughed.
"Bastard thing."
The envoy took a token from his body and spoke; "Take a good look and let me go quickly, or you will have your good fruit to eat."
Zhou Haigang wanted to say something, but the subordinates beside him reminded Zhou Hai and said: "The general might as well hand over this thing to the prince to see, if it is not for the special envoy to come back and clean them up, if it is for the special envoy, it will not offend him." ” "Okay, then General Ben will go."
After Zhou Hai saw Li Qing, he told him about the cause and effect, and Li Qing looked at the token and said, "Quickly call him to see this king." ” After the envoy came in, Li Qing greeted him with a smile: "The envoy has worked hard from afar. ” "Your Majesty Shengyu, King Yan takes the order."
After the envoy came in, he did not say a word.
After the incense case was prepared, the envoy announced: "His Majesty the Emperor of Great Xia, Shengyu, ordered Li Qing, the king of Yan, to quickly withdraw his troops and return to Hebei, and the envoy Qin sent him to serve as the supervisor. ” After the decree was read, the envoy said to Li Qing: "His Royal Highness King Yan, hurry up and give an order, Your Majesty can say it before you come, if His Royal Highness refuses to obey the order, this envoy has the right to temporarily detain the prince." ” Li Qing's face was very ugly, and he immediately ordered Zhou Hai: "Zhou Hai has issued an order to take down this group of spies who pretend to be His Majesty's envoys." ” "Your Highness," the envoy could finish his words before he was gagged and escorted out.
"Lord Wang, are they really spies?"
Li Qing shook his head and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on them, don't slack off, don't let them run away." ” "Yes, the last general commands."
Zhou Hai said very puzzled.
The first one is presented, some are late, and there is a wave of tickets:
