Chapter 21: Kill the envoy

Since the two armies met in Hexi, the existence of Xixia has entered the countdown, and its demise has become inevitable. However, it is uncertain when Xixia will perish. Now, once Wu Ji is determined, then the demise of Xixia has truly entered the countdown, how exciting it is!

"Destroy the Western Xia!"

The generals stood up in unison, raised their heads, raised their chests, and roared. However, there were only a hundred people, but the sounds shook the sky, as if millions of people were roaring!

Everyone was so excited that tears rolled in their eyes!

Xixia has always been a big trouble for the Song Dynasty. It has fought against the Song Dynasty for decades and suppressed the Song Dynasty. In order to fight Xixia, the Song Dynasty did all its efforts to succeed. This was a shame for the Song Dynasty!

Is this kind of shame tolerable, but who can't bear it?

The Xixia is finally about to perish, who can not be excited?

Not only were the generals excited, but Wu Ji himself was also very excited. He clenched his fists and his eyes were lit up. He never expected that the death of Xixia was actually caused by him.

For modern people, they are not unfamiliar with Xixia at all! It is a name that makes countless descendants bite their teeth. Its demise comes from their own hands, and anyone will be excited.

"Huhh!"

The room was filled with heavy breathing sounds, and the generals' chests were rising and falling sharply, and they were breathing heavily, and their faces were full of excitement.

"Master, I heard that you have made a fortune and made a lot of war horses. Can you give us some?" The generals finally calmed down, and Zhong Jie spoke happily.

His words were said on behalf of the Western soldiers. All the Western soldiers were extremely nervous and looked at Wu Ji, as if he was afraid that he would not agree.

There are many infantry soldiers in the Western Regions, not without cavalry, but very few cavalry. This is mainly caused by two reasons. One is that the strategy of "using infantry to control cavalry" was proposed by Han Qi when he was in Shanzhou and finally elevated to the national policy of the Song Dynasty. Shanzhou was a base camp that used infantry to control cavalry, and there were many believers. Therefore, the Western Regions devoted all their efforts to build infantry, and they did not pay much attention to cavalry, which caused not many cavalry in the Western Regions.

Secondly, because the terrain of Shanzhou is complex and dangerous, it is suitable for infantry combat and not suitable for cavalry to charge. It is known that cavalry has great power, coming and going like the wind, moving quickly, moving strongly, mobility strongly, and shockingly impactful. However, the use of cavalry requires a flat and open terrain, and it is not suitable for places with complex terrain such as Shanzhou.

In places like Shanzhou with extremely complex terrain, infantry has more advantages than cavalry. Therefore, the Western soldiers had to build large numbers of infantry to minimize cavalry based on reality.

There are 200,000 Western soldiers, and the cavalry has less than 10,000. This shows how low the proportion of cavalry among Western soldiers is.

Now it is different. The strategy of using infantry to control cavalry has been proved to be wrong, and the strategy of using cavalry to control cavalry is correct. This makes the Western soldiers and generals such as Zhong Yan live and want to have cavalry.

Furthermore, when the Western soldiers entered the Hexi area, their mission had changed. From the original defense of Shanzhou to the attack and destruction of Xixia. Moreover, the destruction of Xixia was only the first step, and what followed was the conquering Tubo and marching into the Western Regions, without war horses.

"Master General, our Western soldiers have few war horses. Can you give us some?" Yao Gu also wanted to have war horses, his eyes shining, and asked carefully: "After destroying Western Xia, our Western soldiers can no longer rely on their legs to rush on their way. They have to learn to ride horses before they can march into the Western Regions!"

"Yes!" Li Xian also carefully echoed: "Master, we have to prepare in advance, right?"

Seeing the careful and nervous look of the three of them, Wu Ji was very amused: "Haha! Look at your nervous look, you seem to be petty, and you won't give it to you. Am I so petty?"

"Haha!" The Western generals were overjoyed and laughed. Although Wu Ji's words were full of complaints, he could not understand them very well. How could they not be happy?

If we have a war horse, the Western soldiers can grow four legs like the Song army in the north, and come and go like the wind. With the elite of the Western soldiers, it will be even more amazing. Who can't think about it?

"I will discuss this matter with you even if you don't talk about it." Wu Ji stood up, walked up, frowned, and said in contemplation: "I went to three cities in a row, and in addition to seizing a large amount of food and grass, there were also a large number of war horses. These war horses were all seized from the Xixia army, and they could be used directly without training. We each had a war horse, so we couldn't use it. Your Western soldiers came, and it was just right to train their riding skills during this period to build a cavalry."

"Thank you, Marshal! Thank you!" Zhong Yan and the others thanked each other in unison, their butts were all happy.

"I mean, first select a group of flexible, strong-bodied and battle-prone brothers from the Western Army and let them become cavalrymen!" Wu Ji began to arrange them.

"Master, please rest assured. All of us Western soldiers have experienced many battles. Needless to say, they are all very good! As for their agility, they are all better than mine!" Yao Pingzhong shouted, his loud voice was like thunder.

"Puchi!"

The laughter sounded. The generals of the Western soldiers knew that Yao Pingzhong was a tiger general and could not have an opponent when charging into battle, but he just didn't like to use his brain. It was very uncomfortable for him to use his brain.

"Ping Zhong!" Yao Gu hurriedly scolded. Yao Ping Zhong shrank his neck and did not dare to say anything.

"The Western soldiers fought with Xixia for decades in Shanzhou, and the biggest gain was to hike mountains and cross ridges. When it comes to fighting in high mountains and dense forests, I think the Western soldiers of the Song Dynasty were the ones!" Wu Ji raised his eyebrows and felt quite funny: "So, this precious experience cannot be lost. Such a team should be retained to let them specialize in mountain combat."

"This..." Yao Pingzhong and the others were a little reluctant.

Although the Western Army is good at mountain combat, the situation has changed and mountain combat is no longer useful.

"You have to think so. The Song Dynasty has a vast territory and many mountains. Maybe it will take some time to fight in the mountains. Therefore, this precious experience cannot be wasted." Wu Ji saw it very far-reachingly.

China has a vast territory and has many mountains. It is possible that it will take some of the Western soldiers who are skilled in mountain warfare to retain some of them.

"Since the general is so planning, the last general dares not obey!" Zhong Yan and the others were all famous generals. As soon as they mentioned something to Wu Ji, they immediately understood.

"Haha!" The generals of the Western soldiers laughed very happily: "From then, we have grown four legs, just like the brothers in the north, and can come and go like the wind."

Just when they were happy, Wu Ji attacked them and said, "Don't be happy too early! You can only learn how to ride a horse, a modao, a thunderbolt sword, but there is no thunderbolt bullet. You can't use it even if you want to."

This is not because Wu Ji is difficult for them, but because of the actual situation. Mo Dao, the sword of the enemy, and the thunder bomb were manufactured in the north and were difficult to transport for a while. Western soldiers could only ride horses and could not fight like the northern army.

"Not right now, it doesn't mean there will be no in the future!" Zhong Yan, Yao Gu, Li Xian and the others shouted happily in unison.

With the elite of the Western soldiers, it is inevitable to transform them, and it is impossible to eliminate the Western soldiers. Not to mention anything else, the rich experience of the battle formation is not comparable to other troops. If the Western soldiers are re-armed, it will be a very terrifying force, with amazing combat power, no worse than the northern army.

"Report to the Grand Marshal, Xixia sent people to negotiate." At this moment, Wu Xing stepped in and reported to Wu Ji.

"Peace talk?"

The news was like water droplets smashing into a hot oil pan, and it immediately became boiling. The generals stood up suddenly and cursed with hatred: "Xixia Dog wants to have a peace talk, dream! The Grand Marshal, you must not have a peace talk!"

For the Song people, it was a great humiliation for them to not take down the small Xixia for decades. Xixia did not negotiate early or later, until it was about to perish, and then sent people to negotiate. Who can not be angry?

"Master, Xixia Dog is desperate. Why did you go to talk about it? You must not talk about it!" Yao Pingzhong shouted the most vigorously.

"That's right! General Yao is right!"

The generals did not make fun of him this time, but agreed loudly, which was rare to see.

"Is it possible to have peace talks? We can do it first!" Wu Ji raised his eyebrows, his voice was not loud, but it was loud: "Now, the survival of the Western Xia is in the hands of the Song Dynasty, so of course we have to decide this matter!"

"You are just yelling, but the handsome man is still wise!" Zhong Yan and the others agreed with Wu Ji's words.

Nowadays, the Xixia is completely beaten, and the Song Dynasty has the initiative, so the peace talks have to be decided by the Song Dynasty. When the generals think about it, this is the case and no longer object.

"Call him in!" Wu Ji waved his hand and Wu Xing went out to take people.

Not much effort, I saw an official from Xixia in his forties or fifties, with a follower, led by Wu Xing. This person had a good temperament and was quite calm, and he was not panicked because of the depressing atmosphere in Wu Ji's house.

"I have met the commander of the Wu capital!" This man saluted Wu Ji.

"Call the generals!" The generals shouted in unison, and their voices were as bright as thunder.

"Yes! I've seen the Grand Marshal!" The man saluted again.

Wu Ji did not speak, but looked at him with his eyes and asked, "Li Bingchang asked you to come for a peace talk, what are his conditions?"

"The emperor said that as long as you withdraw your troops and then lose annual quotas to Daxia, Daxia will not care about this offense!" The man raised his head, his chest thrust, and looked brave and arrogant.

“…”

The generals looked at this person, as if fire was about to spurt out of fire. If Wu Ji hadn't been here, they would have pounced on him and tore the man to pieces. The demise of Xixia was right in front of him, and such conditions were offered. Who would not be angry?

"Come!" Wu Ji looked at the man coldly and shouted loudly: "Cut his dog's head!"

"Abide by the order!" Yao Pingzhong stepped forward, pulled out the Mazakuan, and was about to chop the man's head.

"Wu Ji, you dare! You don't know what happened. I don't believe it if the two countries fight with each other. If they don't kill the envoys, I don't believe it. You dare to kill me!" The man was shocked. Then he thought that the two countries fight with each other. If they don't kill the envoys, they have never heard of the Song Dynasty killing the envoys, and they can't help but feel more confident.

"There is this statement that the two countries have fought each other and did not kill the envoys. However, the Song Dynasty never admitted that Xixia was a country! Xixia was a rebellion of the Song Dynasty. It was a great crime to establish itself as an enemy. You have to die for the sake of death!" Although Xixia proclaimed itself as emperor, it created a fait accompli. However, the Song Dynasty did not admit it and kept calling the Emperor of Xixia a rebel.

"This..." The man realized that something was wrong, but it was too late.

I saw that the Mazakura knife in Yao Pingzhong's hand moved a head.
