After thinking about this, Zhao Ji summed up the merits and demerits of Liu Yanqing's life in history, that is, he led his troops to repeatedly achieve military exploits in the battle against Xixia, and basically never suffered a major defeat; however, he was severely defeated in the battle against the Liao Dynasty.

Not only was Jin defeated in battle, he was also killed by the Jin army.

…

"well!"

Zhao Ji patted Liu Yanqing's generous shoulder and sighed:

"Liu Aiqing, what I just said to you is not alarmist!"

"If you continue to be as lax in controlling the army as you did before, resulting in loose military discipline and disorganized troops, then if there is a big war in the future, your troops will be defeated. It is really not easy, and you will most likely be defeated and die as a result.

!”

"Wei Chen Yanqing, you know your mistake! The officials have taught you very well! I beg the officials to give Wei Chen Yanqing another chance to redeem himself and make meritorious deeds!"

The reason why Liu Yanqing was afraid was that the officials could say such things in front of him. Does that mean that the Zhao officials had the idea of ​​depriving him of his military power?

'Although I, Liu Yanqing, was born as a general, it was not easy for me to be the commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army. It was because of my repeated meritorious service in the war against Xixia and my accumulated military service. Since the official said this,

Do you want to demote me?'

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Liu Yanqing’s face turned pale with fright.

Zhao Ji guessed what Liu Yanqing was thinking by observing his words and expressions.

Zhao Ji saw that because Liu Yanqing held military power, he could still gain the support of his subordinates.

Of course, it was precisely because he was lax in running the army and allowed his soldiers to violate discipline that he gained the support of his subordinates.

Zhao Ji also liked Liu Yanqing's slight favor because he would rather die than surrender to the Jin army even if he was defeated and fled.

He decided to give Liu Yanqing one last chance to see the consequences.

Zhao Ji said to Liu Yanqing, who looked frightened:

"I have just told your generals that if I give them another chance to make up for their crimes, I will also give you a chance to make up for your past mistakes. Therefore, in the battle to defeat Xixia Xijing City, Liu Aiqing, you must lead your troops to fight well, and you must

We will conscientiously implement the tactics we formulated during the previous discussions in front of the imperial court."

After Liu Yanqing heard the promise from Zhao Guan's family, he burst into tears of gratitude and kowtowed again, saying:

"Thank you to the official family for giving me the opportunity to make meritorious deeds for my humble minister Yanqing. I will live up to the holy hope and lead my soldiers to kill more enemy troops in order to repay the king's kindness..."

"Weak minister Yanqing, thank you Lord for your kindness! Long live my emperor..."

Zhao Ji helped Liu Yanqing, who was so moved that he could not speak coherently, to his feet again and said:

"Actually, I asked you to lead your troops to camp outside the north gate of the enemy's Xijing City. I also wanted to use your troops and generals' lax discipline to confuse the Xia army who was holding on to Xijing City."

"After my Song soldiers attacked the city from three sides, the Xixia soldiers in the city mistakenly thought that the Song camp in the north city where your troops were stationed could easily break through..."

Liu Yanqing suddenly realized that while he admired the Zhao Guan family for their wisdom, martial arts, and superior strategy, he also felt ashamed of himself.

It turns out that Zhao Guan's family has long known the truth about the lack of military discipline among our soldiers! I am really ashamed of myself...

Zhao Ji added: "I inspected your department today and found many shortcomings. Your department must correct them quickly. Don't wait until the enemy breaks out. Liu Aiqing, your department's military discipline is still as lax as it is today, and it will be impossible to complete the task."

Encircling and annihilating the Xia enemy gave them a heavy blow."

"Weak minister Yanqing, please remember the official teachings..."

Zhao Ji nodded and ordered: "When my plan of 'siege the city must be defended' is implemented and the three-pronged army attacks Xiping Fucheng, Liu Aiqing and your troops are in the camp in the north of the enemy city. You must continuously mobilize a large number of rear troops."

The illusion of going to reinforce the other three siege Song armies..."

"The humble minister Yanqing obeys the decree. Official sages, if this happens, the enemy troops in Xipingfu City will definitely see the emptiness in the camp of the ministers on the city wall. If they cannot hold on to Xipingfu in Xijing, they will definitely abandon the city.

And left the North City Gate. At that time, the troops and horses pretended to be mobilized, but they were actually on the way. They turned back and set up an ambush halfway to ambush the enemy troops who escaped from the city..."

Zhao Ji nodded slightly and said, "What Liu Aiqing said is exactly what I want!"

"In a while, I will also attack the camps of other Song armies. I invite Liu Aiqing to watch them together..."

"The humble minister Yanqing obeys the decree and thanks the Lord for his kindness..."

…

Zhao Ji took Liu Yanqing, and under the protection of the imperial city officials, they suddenly visited the military camps of Zhongshidao, Zhongshizhong, Yao Gu, Guo Cheng, and Han Shizhong without prior notice...

…

Liu Yanqing believed what he saw and truly believed that what Zhao Guanjia taught him was very correct.

Without comparison, there is no harm.

Liu Yanqing, led by Zhao Guanjia, suddenly visited other armies. All military disciplines were strict. Even Zhao Guanjia did not issue a seal. The guards and generals of other military camps were all ready...

After Zhao Guanjia presented his seal and was put into his camp, what Liu Yanqing saw was a completely different mental outlook from that of his soldiers...

Liu Yanqing accompanied Zhao Guanjia on a temporary assault inspection of the various camps. He did not see a single soldier in the Zhongshi Daobu Camp, Zhongshi Middle Camp, Yaogu Camp, Guo Cheng Camp, and Han Shizhong Camp who committed crimes like his.

Military disciplines violated - drinking, gambling, taking off armor and sleeping...

Soldiers from other ministries, even if they take turns to rest in the camp, are all wearing armor and ready to fight...

Under such a strong contrast, Liu Yanqing truly realized that Zhao Guanjia's criticism of him and his tribe was wise and upright.

Along the way, Liu Yanqing, who was blushing with shame, saw the strict military discipline in other military camps and the soldiers and generals actively preparing for war. He was sincerely grateful to Zhao Guan's family for severely criticizing him, and he was even more grateful to Zhao Guan's family for giving him a meritorious service.

, a chance to reform.

He secretly swore: "From today on, when I, Liu Yanqing, return to the army, I will strictly manage the army according to the sacred words of Zhao Guanjia, strengthen military training, and will never tolerate generals who violate discipline..."

Liu Yanqing followed Zhao Guan's family and left Han Shizhong's camp...

On the road, they saw in the distance ahead, Yue Fei and Liu Guangshi, leading their troops, were escorting Brother Richard, who was tied to the height of the chariot for a parade...

Zhao Ji, who was riding on a war horse and dressed in military uniform, said to Liu Yanqing, who was on a war horse beside him:

"Look, Uncle Liu Ping, son of Liu Aiqing, is leading his troops with Yue Pengju to escort Brother Richard, parading outside the enemy city to provoke the enemy defenders. Aiqing and I are following them to watch the fun!"

"The official family, the humble minister Yanqing suggested that it is better to stay away to ensure His Majesty's safety..."

"Drive!" Zhao Ji whipped his whip and shouted loudly, and the horse galloped forward in response...

Liu Yanqing looked up and saw the bright red cloak embroidered with five-clawed golden dragon patterns worn by Zhao Guanjia on the back of his armor, floating in the fierce wind, looking extremely heroic and unrestrained!

"drive!"

"Drive!" Liu Yanqing and the imperial cavalrymen rushed their horses to pursue Zhao Guan's family to escort them.

…

At this time, Yue Fei and Liu Guangshi, two generals, led their troops to escort Brother Richard on the chariot, and had already walked slowly around the open space outside Xipingfu City where enemy arrows could not reach...

As they marched, they took turns shouting in Chinese and Dangxiang dialects in unison with thunderous momentum:

"Xia Gou who is sticking to the city and not daring to fight, please listen carefully. Your strongest cavalry in Xixia, the Iron Kites, has been completely annihilated by our Song Dynasty army..."

"Xia dogs in the city, if you don't believe it, please stick out your dog heads from the battlements, widen your eyes, and show them all to Grandpa. Who is this person tied to our nest car?"

!”

"Summer dogs, have you seen it?"

"The man we tied to the chariot in such a state of embarrassment is Brother Richard, King of Jin, whom you regard as the first god of war in Xixia!"

"Hahahahaha..."

"What? You summer dogs guarding the city, you don't believe this is Brother Richard?"

"Then keep your eyes open and watch!"

"Look at Brother Richard on this Chao Chao. The blood-stained and torn flag hanging on the left side of him is the iron kite military flag that Xixia is proud of, isn't it?"

"Keep your eyes wide open and see clearly!"

"Look! On the right side of brother Richard, there is also the unique armor of the commander of the Iron Kites Army!"

"Hahahahaha..."

"Xia dogs guarding the city, if you have the guts, do you dare to leave the city? Take back your Jin King Richard from your grandfather's hands?!"

"Hahahahaha..."

"Xia dogs guarding the city, you see, there are only a few hundred of us escorting Brother Richard and parading under your city. Are you so cowardly as a mouse that you don't dare to go out of the city and take Brother Richard back?"

"Hahahahaha..."
