Chapter 382 Can't let them go
The words of Mei Le Du were purely to give Empress Dowager Liang a step, so she wanted to withdraw her troops as soon as possible. Seeing that Empress Dowager Liang was asking this question, she had to bite the bullet and say, "Yes."
Empress Dowager Liang's expression was calm and she said sadly: "I am pitiful to me, Daxia soldiers..."
Everyone dared not speak, who would have thought that Xiaoxia City would actually cause them to lose so many soldiers.
When I came, more than 200,000 were left, and less than half of them returned intact, and 40,000 to 50,000 were directly killed!
Such casualties have been unique since the founding of the Great Xia Kingdom!
Li Ganshun glanced at Empress Dowager Liang, his eyes becoming more and more firm.
Wei Ming Ashan felt relieved. Although the losses were huge, it was so good that he could withdraw his troops back.
Queen Mother Liang still vented her feelings for a while and said lightly: "Then let's withdraw the troops at midnight."
"I will receive the imperial edict." The group of people who were originally silent suddenly spoke.
There is no profit, they don’t want to continue to stay. Is the glory and wealth of Xingqing Mansion uncomfortable?
The corner of Queen Mother Liang's mouth moved, she felt disgusted, but she was still sad, sighing at the casualties and promised to add more pensions when she returned.
The crowd remained silent again. Empress Dowager Liang just continued to summarize the defeat and shirk responsibility. How could they interrupt without any ignorance?
Queen Mother Liang sighed for a while, and many people came out of the tent.
Weiming Abang and Meile were busy collecting the soldiers and preparing for retreat.
Li Ganshun stood on a small hill, looking at the direction of Pingxia City, and said casually: "Your family, I heard that the Emperor of Song was the same as me before?"
The so-called "same" is probably a puppet with someone on it who ruled the country from behind.
Wei Ming Ashan actually didn't want to get close to Li Ganshun, but this person was the emperor after all, he had to be respectful and said with a down-eyed look: "Yes."
"How did he do it?" Li Ganshun's tone was curious.
He was suppressed by Empress Dowager Liang so much that he couldn't raise his head, and he didn't even dare to say that he had more than one son. He was very disliked Empress Dowager Liang's national affairs inside and outside? He even disliked him.
He and Zhao Xu have different ideas about taking power? But he has the same desire.
Wei Ming Ashan has been to Bianjing City? Naturally, he knows something, but he doesn't know the inside story? Based on his hearsay, he carefully considered it for a while. He said: "Your Majesty? The Emperor of Song is said to have received the support of the current Deputy Prime Minister Zhang Dun. At the court meeting, he publicly forced the Empress Dowager to withdraw the curtain and return to power? The ministers obeyed? No one dared to object."
Li Ganshun frowned as he heard this. With his current prestige, he could not find any supporters in the court, and this method simply would not work.
Li Ganshun stood silent for a while and said, "I'm going to withdraw my troops? What do you think after Qing's family returns?"
Wei Ming Ashan heard a different taste? Thinking of the Song people’s explanation, hesitated a little in his heart. He said, “I, please follow the sage order.”
A smile appeared on Li Ganshun's face? He admired Wei Ming Ashan very much? He was also very satisfied with his statement.
He laughed a few times? Without saying much, he turned around and left.
Wei Ming Ashan looked at Li Ganshun's back and felt the heavy feeling in his heart was hard to understand.
After thinking about it, he still sent someone to send back the news of his withdrawal of troops tonight.
When he thought that the Song army should be happy to know that they had withdrawn their troops. The battle between the two armies was as usual, and as soon as they retreated, they ended.
...
Xixia began to prepare to withdraw troops at night. The Song army that had been staring at was not only the information of Weiming Ashan, Qingtianwei and Imperial City Department, but only the Song army could make a judgment based on the actions of summer.
Pingxia City.
Guo Cheng stood at the top of the city, looked at the sudden 'calm' over Xia Jun, and said, "How are you preparing?"
Yao Gu and Yao Xiong could also see that, and they were all excited. Yao Xiong said: "Don't worry, Deputy Chief Executive, we have gathered 3,000 people and left the city overnight tonight to attack the camp!"
Guo Cheng shook his head and said, "No need. The official family has come to the letter, let us obey the orders and commands of the Shou Shuai."
The two brothers of the Yao family immediately said, "Shishou is going to attack the camp?"
The Yao brothers knew that Zhe Keshi was the general manager of Jingyuan Road, and with the reinforcements from all walks under his command, he said that there were at least 40,000 people. If he attacked at night, he would definitely have great results!
Guo Cheng didn't speak, but his heart became much lighter.
The Xia army finally retreated, and if we continue, Pingxia City may not be able to survive.
At this time, Zhe Keshi had already dispatched various reinforcements, not far from the Xia army camp.
Zhong Pu, Wang En, Zhong Shizhong were all there, and everyone was full of confidence and prepared to fight back against Xixia.
"Zhe Shuai, after holding it in for so long, I can finally attack well!"
"Yes, Zhe Shuai, the brothers would have been unable to help it. If it weren't for the pressure of the stern, they would have been hit long ago."
"Zhe Shuai, let's attack at night. Last time, the empress dowager, the little emperor, ran away. This time, I must not let them go!"
A group of people were filled with righteous indignation, quite indignant, and vigorously belligerent.
Zhe Keshi sat upright, and at this time, a guard quickly stepped in and whispered in Zhe Keshi's ear: "Maintain, the official has arrived in Qingzhou."
Zhe Keshi's serious face changed suddenly, and he immediately said, "I understand."
Everyone stopped watching Zhe Keshi change color, and looked at him together.
Zhe Keshi naturally knew why Zhao Xu suddenly arrived in Qingzhou. The Xia army was exhausted and the troops were withdrawn. The government suddenly came over. This was to boost morale and also meant that the battle was about to end.
Zhe Ke saw more than a dozen pairs of longing eyes and said lightly: "I won't attack the camp tonight."
The following was suddenly infuriated, and a group of generals couldn't help it.
The first of the Zhongshi Zhong spoke, saying, "Zheshuai, the Xia army is tired and wants to withdraw its troops again. It's great to attack the camp tonight, so you must not miss it!"
"yes……"
"Yeah yeah……"
"Zhe Shuai, you can't miss it..."
Zhe Keshi's face was thin and had no expression, and said, "Don't underestimate the Xia people. Since they want to withdraw their troops, they will not be unprepared. At this time, attacking the camp will be a trap. For such a simple truth, I need to explain it to you?"
Everyone was afraid to speak at once. Zhe Keshi said it was right, but they couldn't help it.
Zhe Keshi continued, "Zhong Jianzhong, you are preparing three thousand cavalry, Zhong Pu, Wang En follows me with the Xia army, and the other army goes out of the Great Wall Ridge to meet Zong Ze, Zhong Jianzhong, and Chu You, and ask the minister Shu to pass the message, have you heard it clearly?"
"The last general will receive the order!"
The crowd did not dare to talk too much, and stood up together and said loudly on one knee.
Zhe Keshi nodded.
In fact, the Xia army is no longer their main target. His mission is to keep a close eye on the Xia army, hold them back, and not give them the opportunity to divide their troops to support other places.
Other armies are entering the Hengshan area and further occupying Xia land.
At this time, Zhao Xu did arrive in Qingzhou.
At this time, the so-called promises are no longer important - the decisive battle is imminent!
In the back hall of Qingzhou Prefecture, Zhao Xu and Zhang Feng were looking at the map and staring at the place they planned before.
It is not difficult to take down these places. The question is how the Song Dynasty should defend it, and at the same time, it will stop fighting for the Western Xia and stop the border from silence.
"You can't let them go!" Zhao Xu slashed his fist twice on the map and said firmly.
Chapter completed!
