Since it was to relieve the danger of the city, why not enter the city and retreat when the Liao army began to gather?
I don’t know who the leading general is.
Wang Deyong thought that once he got out of trouble, he must understand this matter well, and then read this general's book to punish him for serious crimes.
At this time, Wang Deyong was still arranging the list of privy envoys.
He thought that others should come to save him, but he didn't want to think about himself. Why didn't Xu Ba make any move when he led his army to the outside of the city?
On the top of the city tower, when he saw that no one wanted to attack the city, Wang Deyong turned around and went back to sleep.
Kill and fight. As long as it doesn't threaten your own safety, I'll let you fight and kill.
Compared to Wang De's inaction, Su Shi's troops are about to take action again.
When Ji Zhu said on the intercom that he was going to launch a general offensive, Su Shi called General Lei Meng who had been recuperating and gave him a very difficult task, which was to attack the Xixia military camp opposite at night.
It doesn't matter whether it can succeed or not, it just creates a kind of pressure on the Xixia army on the opposite side, that is, it is unable to support the battle in the south. Otherwise, the Su army in front can rush into the battlefield at any time and cause trouble for them at any time.
their defense.
Meng Lei led the army to take action.
Just when the battle on the Black Cavalry side had just begun, they also took action here. Although the Xixia army had been on guard against night attacks and failed to succeed, they still held the opponent back until Liang De sent people.
When he asked for help, Ren Degao refused.
Su Shi moved his hand, and Wang Xin followed suit.
A famous general is a famous general, even if he has not said hello before,
By letter.
But when the battle broke out at night, Wang Xin was still keenly aware of what Di Qing's troops were doing.
He didn't move before because Di Qing's troops had been on the defensive and couldn't find an opportunity.
Now that he was taking the initiative to attack, Wang Xin thought that Di Qing was preparing to strike with an axe. Even so, he had already had this idea and followed suit, launching a fierce charge towards the 40,000 Liao soldiers surrounding their unit.
.
At this point, everyone started to move, including Bao Zheng, who had just arrived at Chitang Pass. When he learned from the scouts sent out, the battlefield was reduced to a pot of porridge, because it was dark, and the scouts could not see clearly, but they knew
After everything was in chaos, Bao Zheng analyzed that Su Shi should be the one responsible.
"The army is assembled and ready for battle."
Bao Zheng didn't know if this was an opportunity, but he was already here, how could he do nothing?
This is also a manifestation of Bao Zheng's belief in Su Shi.
Since he met Su Shi, this kid has never suffered a loss. Now that he has taken action, he must have his own plan.
Chitang Pass, which had been closed for many days, finally opened and closed again, and the reinforcements of the Song Dynasty, which had been forgotten by the three tribes, marched onto the battlefield.
Just before Bao Zheng sent out troops, Wu Zangguyin rushed to Liang De's headquarters with only 20,000 horses in hand. At this point, all 130,000 Liao troops were tied to the battlefield.
The Xixia Army invested 130,000 troops.
The Liao army's 80,000 troops and 40,000 continued to besiege Xinzhou, and 40,000 blocked Wang Xin from breaking through.
The Great Song Dynasty.
Wang Xin led 20,000 troops.
Di Qing led 40,000 troops, plus 8,000 wounded troops.
Su Shi led about 75,000 troops.
In total, the Song army had nearly 140,000 soldiers. If
In addition, Bao Zheng led 50,000 reinforcements, and even if the total military strength is slightly worse than that of Xixia and Liao, it is not much different.
When both sides have invested all their forces, the outcome will be determined.
The first one to break through was the Black Knight.
It is worthy of being the strongest and most elite force in the Su family's army.
When they discovered that Di Qing's troops were also breaking out of the encirclement on the battlefield, they quickly adjusted their direction of advance.
At this time, the Flying Eagle Scout Squadron played a decisive role.
In the darkness, many people's vision was blocked, but the Su Jiajun scouts could clearly understand the situation on the battlefield because they had far-infrared telescopes in their hands.
The Flying Eagle Scout Squadron is the best at camouflage.
Even in the daytime, it is difficult to spot them. Often a stone or a thick branch with leaves may be disguised by them. Unless you can kick it at close range,
Or use a knife like that, otherwise you would never imagine that there is a person hiding here.
Black Sky is their world. As long as they want to, even if they move under your nose, it will be difficult for you to detect them.
The Flying Eagle Scout Squadron gave full play to their abilities and constantly guided the black cavalry and vanguard troops to move closer to Di Qing's troops. Moreover, their attack route was always the nearest road. Occasionally they would take a detour to avoid direct confrontation.
The approaching Xixia cavalry collided.
One side dodges consciously, while the other side blocks without purpose.
The results are self-evident and can be imagined.
After escaping the pursuit and interception of several groups of Xixia cavalry, Ji Zhu finally led his troops with more than an hour before dawn.
He bumped into Di Qing's men.
The Xixia cavalry who were blocking Di Qing's troops from breaking out had no idea that tens of thousands of Song cavalry would suddenly appear behind them.
Moreover, these Song cavalry are very powerful in combat, and their attacks are very fierce.
It was already very difficult to stop Di Qing's troops who were going crazy. Faced with a flanking attack from two sides, the Xixia army was cut off at the waist. The blocking army had to retreat to both sides in order to protect itself. Finally, half a day before dawn.
Within an hour, the two sides successfully met.
Wu Zang Guyin, who had already rushed to the battlefield, showed up with 20,000 Xixia cavalry with his final maneuvering power, but lost all trace of the black cavalry and the vanguard army.
Many cavalry were sent to search the battlefield, but there was still no news.
For a time, Wu Zangguyin thought that the Su family's army had withdrawn from the battlefield. It was not until almost dawn that the latest news came.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
In the temporary military tent, when he learned that the cavalry from the Su family army who came to the rescue had actually gathered with Di Qing's troops, Wu Zangguyin shook his head in disbelief.
There was such chaos at night that even he could not accurately know the whereabouts of his men.
Under such a complicated situation, how could the Su family's army bypass their blockade and join Di Qing's troops so quickly?
Even if there is someone on his side to support him, I'm afraid he won't be able to do it at all.
Now that Su Jiajun has done it, he cannot accept it psychologically.
"General, should we send someone to block their retreat? Now that they have come together, we can join forces to surround them and eliminate them in this area.
." Liang De spoke carefully.
He had made too many mistakes before, and now he even asked the Su family army to join forces with the Western Army. If he had not hidden the old news, he must be held accountable, or he would be left with nothing to lose.
"Yes, it's a good thing that they have joined forces. We no longer have to divide our forces. In this way, we can immediately surround them and completely surround them. This time we will never allow them to escape from our hands again." Wu Zanggu, who came to his senses, turned around.
The sound made my whole body feel full of confidence once again.
Judging from the military strength alone, he currently has 70,000 soldiers, the Su family's army has only about 10,000 reinforcements, and Di Qing's troops only have 40,000 capable warriors. In terms of military strength, they still have an advantage.
I was passive before, but I didn't expect the Su family's army to come from behind.
In addition, he needs to divide his troops to stop him, which reduces many advantages. But now that the enemies have joined forces, this is also a good opportunity for him to take advantage of his strength to start a decisive battle.
Although the situation on the battlefield has changed, it is completely different from the previous plan.
The plan to use the hands of the three clans to severely damage the Western Army of the Song Dynasty has failed with the emergence of the Su Family Army. However, if the Western Army and the Su Family Army can be severely damaged, it can be regarded as making up for the situation.
In this way, it can be regarded as a reason to explain to their Xixia King Li Yuanhao.
The Xixia cavalry began to mobilize and surrounded the place where Ji Zhu and Di Qing met.
In the besieged temporary military camp of the Song Dynasty, Di Qing's troops were munching on the rations brought by Ji Zhu and others.
Considering that they had to leave Su Shi and fight the enemy this time, Ji Zhu's troops brought a full fifteen days' worth of food rations when they set out this time.
Mainly compressed biscuits, as well as fire
Leg sausages, beef jerky, self-heating rice and other items that are suitable to bring with you.
Every soldier has a package on his back containing these things.
In addition to a few limited boxes of self-heating rice, beef jerky and compressed biscuits are the largest quantities. These are almost tired of the black knights, but for Di Qing's troops who have been without food for several days, they are
It's more delicious than delicacies from the mountains and sea.
When he learned that Di Qing and others had not eaten much for several days and were fighting purely with will, Ji Zhu ordered all the soldiers to give to Di Qing and others except for two days of rations.
, at least so that everyone will not go to war hungry.
This is not a time for modesty.
Everyone knows that only when you are full can you have the strength to fight.
Di Qing did not act pretentious, he was indeed hungry, and so were the soldiers.
During the breakout, many veterans could be seen falling to the ground while fighting.
They didn't have any wounds on their bodies, but they fell down like this. This was all caused by being hungry for too long.
Speaking of which, the Western Army is not rich either. The imperial court's annual allocation cannot be fully met, and a large part of it must be raised by themselves.
It's just that in the western border of the Song Dynasty, the people were very poor due to years of war, and they couldn't bear to let the Western Army take food from them.
This time, for the first time, they brought twenty days' worth of rations to the rescue. But once a war takes place, too much physical energy is consumed, and ten days' worth of twenty days' worth of grain is already pretty good.
It can also be said that it is not easy for Di Qing's troops to persist until now.
You can also put it this way, if Ji Zhu and the others don't come, I'm afraid
In three days at most, Di Qing's troops will be defeated without any attack, and the Xixia army can completely slaughter these tens of thousands of Western troops who have lost all their strength.
