Chivalrous Song Dynasty

Wouldn't it be easy to take the Xixia army to earn the Western Army's border with these identities?

In fact, Xiao Feng's rhetoric all came from Bai Sheng's face-to-face instruction, and the "big plan" that Bai Sheng conceived to seduce the monarchs and ministers of Xixia was exactly the same as the plan proposed by Li Ruolan when he was taking a bath in the Vulture Palace.

Indeed, as long as Bai Sheng is really willing to surrender to Xixia, the success rate of this strategy is very high.

Therefore, after deliberation, the Xixia monarchs and ministers finally adopted the proposal of "Li Ruolan" and put all the elite soldiers of the country into this plan to destroy the Song Dynasty.

Of course, some people also raised doubts, saying that you have sent all the elite soldiers to Hengshan, how to deal with the advancing forces of the other four armies of the Song Dynasty?

The answer Li Ruolan gave was that as long as Hengshan and the four prefectures of Yan, Huan, Qing, and Wei were captured, the Song army would immediately return to Bianjing without fighting.

The previous five-way expeditions to Xia have proved a truth. The imperial army from the Song Dynasty was in a dilemma on the loess high slopes and deserts of Xixia. The origin of the grain is even more because the Xixia monarchs and ministers will also strengthen the walls and clear the fields.

So even if they want to use the strategy of besieging Wei and saving Zhao, they can't use it, because they don't have the ability to besiege for a long time.

So Li Qianshun made a decision and handed over 30 elite soldiers to Li Liangfu, Marshal of Zhengdong, and asked Li Liangfu to follow Bai Shengdong into Hengshan.

"Bai Sheng" really lived up to expectations, first he sent his men and women to sneak into Hengshan, and when the Xixia army arrived, all the border villages opened their doors to accept surrender.

Li Liangfu was overjoyed. He had never fought such an easy battle in his life.So these miscellaneous troops who surrendered continued to guard the fort. He and Bai Sheng led an army of 30 across Hengshan and directly surrounded Yanzhou City.

Of course, before the siege of Yanzhou City, Xiao Feng had already sent Tang Long, the money leopard, to inform Yanzhou City’s Master Zhongdao in advance. , but in line with the principle of rather believable, some defensive preparations have been made.

As a result, the 30 Xixia army fell into the quagmire of a war that could not be attacked for a long time.

It was too late when they found out that Bai Sheng had suddenly vanished from the world. Not only could the food and grass not be transported from Hengshan, but even the horse scouts they sent to contact Xingqing Mansion were like mud cows. The surrendered forts formed an impossibly strong line of defense, preventing them from returning home.

Li Ruolan, disguised by Xiao Feng, did not follow the 30 army to attack Yanzhou. She used the pretext of presiding over the overall situation, and rode the Zhaoye Jade Lion to run between the cities of Xixia, gathering the backbone of the defense in each city. There was an encounter field battle with the middle army led by Tong Guan.

Due to a deliberate command error, this encounter in the field ended with the defeat of the Xixia side across the board, so there was a tragic situation in which all the cities of Xixia fell, and the 60 troops of the Song Dynasty encircled Helan Mountain.

At the moment when the real Bai Sheng left Misty Peak of Tianshan Mountain, the common people in Xingqing Prefecture and the children of high officials and dignitaries had already picked up their weapons and walked to the top of the city wall, fighting day and night on the city wall, only hoping to support the Liao Kingdom. The mediation was successful.

Chapter 530 Turning the tide, Yelu Nanxian

The 30 troops never returned, Li Ruolan also lost contact, and the people in the whole city of Xingqing fell into fear of destroying the country.

Because the two prefectures of Gansu and Liangzhou behind Helan Mountain have both fallen, the Xixia people have no way out, that is, they have lost their strategic depth. Therefore, whether Xixia will be destroyed or not depends on how long Xingqing Mansion can hold on.

The monks of Chengtian Temple, headed by Songba, have already begun to perform great rituals, begging the Buddha to save Xixia, a country that is devout to Buddhism.

60 troops surrounded Xingqing Mansion. Even though Songba boasted that his Prajna Dragon Elephant skill was unparalleled in the world, he could only look at the ocean and sigh. The ocean here is naturally a sea of ​​people spread out by the soldiers of the Song Dynasty below the city. In front of such a sea of ​​people, No kind of martial arts will help.

Emperor Li Ganshun was not idle either, he found Queen Yelu Nanxian to plead, and begged Yelu Nanxian to persuade the Liao Kingdom to help.

Xixia is about to perish. As the empress of Xixia, Yelu Nanxian, the princess of the Liao Kingdom, naturally refuses to sit idly by. Even if she doesn't think about her husband Li Qianshun, she must also take into account the future of her son Li Renai.Therefore, she specially wrote a book by herself, imploring her natal family to intervene.

On the surface, Yelu Nanxian's status in the Xixia Kingdom is very respected, and she is Li Qianshun's only concubine so far, not one of them.In order to show his loyalty to the Liao Kingdom, Li Qianshun never contaminated any other women in the Xixia harem, let alone canonized a certain woman as a concubine.

Speaking of which, it was not easy for Li Qianshun to marry Yelu Nanxian. He had proposed marriage to Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom three times, but Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi didn't take the proposal seriously at first, and then saw that he begged repeatedly. That's why Yelu Nanxian, the daughter of the clan, was made a princess and married to Xixia, which was considered perfunctory.

Like Li Ruolan, Li Qianshun is an emperor who puts political interests first. To respect Yelu Nanxian is to respect the Liao Kingdom.In fact, he has basically no marital affection for Yelu Nanxian. Even if the two have a son Li Renai, it is just a derivative of politics.

If it weren't for the precarious Xixia in this Song-Xia war, Li Qianshun had already begun to cooperate with Jin to destroy Liao.

Another history in time and space is that Tong Guan led the five-way army and returned to the court with full ambition after only a small victory. Therefore, Xixia, who was not hurt at all, still secretly communicated with the Kingdom of Jin and stood secretly in the Jin-Liao War. On the side of the Kingdom of Jin.

The Liao Kingdom helped Xixia mediate the Song Xia War, but Xixia did not send troops to assist the Daliao to destroy the Jin. What is it if it is not on the side of the Jin Kingdom?

At the same time that Li Qianshun confided a beautiful Han woman surnamed Ren, he completely neglected Yelu Nanxian, and Yelu Nanxian died of a hunger strike after hearing that the Liao Kingdom had fallen.

But in this time and space, the trajectory of history has changed. Under the current situation, the Liao Kingdom is the last straw for Li Qianshun, so he must offer Yelu Nanxian as a bodhisattva.

So in fact Yelu Nanxian's fate has changed because of Bai Sheng's time travel.Of course, before her fate changed, it was Xixia's national fortune that changed first.And if she wants to continue to be the mother of Xixia, she must turn the tide in this battle of destroying the country.

This letter from Yelu Nanxian is related to the survival of Xixia, and it can be said to be worth a thousand dollars, but this letter alone is not enough, and the person who sent the letter cannot be an ordinary person, and must have sufficient qualifications to meet Emperor Tianzuo.

Yelu Nanxian herself could not return to the Liao Kingdom, because that would give the Xixia people the impression of throwing away their families and careers, so she chose this person as Yelu Guyu.

In the Liao Kingdom, Yelu Guyu's status was far higher than that of Yelu Nanxian. As long as she was willing to help with the proposal, Emperor Tianzuo would definitely help.

Yelu Guyu had no objection, and immediately agreed to Yelu Nanxian's request. Even if it wasn't for this matter, she wanted to go back to China, because Xixia is not peaceful here, her sister Yelu Nanxian can only stay here, and she There's no need to go through this muddy water, what if the Xingqing mansion is broken, and Song Jun mistakenly regards her as the concubine of Xixia and prostitutes her?

Yelu Guyu agreed, but it was more than 2000 miles from Xixia Xingqing Mansion to Liao Kingdom Zhongjing Dading Mansion (now Ningcheng County, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia), and it would take at least a month to go back and forth. With the madness of the army attacking the city, Xingqing Mansion couldn't hold it for a month.

Therefore, before inviting the mediation of the Liao Kingdom, it is necessary to use a strategy of delaying the army. Of course, this strategy of delaying the army also fell on Yelu Guyu and Yelu Moge-shooting an arrow letter at the top of the city to inform the Song army to suspend the attack. The princess of the Liao Kingdom and the Privy Envoy of the Southern Court of the Liao Kingdom requested to meet with the commander-in-chief of the Song Army.

Tong Guan met Yelu Moge, the envoy of the Liao Kingdom, Songba and Yelu Guyu, the envoys of the Liao Kingdom, and Yelu Guyu, in the tent of the Chinese army on the east bank of the Yellow River. He dared not deny the face of the Liao Kingdom. No one in the hall dared to do so.

The war against Xixia is at a critical juncture. If the Liao Kingdom sends troops to attack the Song Dynasty at this moment, the Song Dynasty will definitely be over.

Brother Yelu Mo and Tong Guan have similar positions. Both of them are privy envoys of their respective countries, except that Yelu Moge, the privy envoy, belongs to the Southern Privy Council of Liao Kingdom. The envoy does not distinguish between the north and the south, and manages the overall situation.

Although it seemed that Tong Guan had a higher position than Yelu Moge, but when the two met in the camp of the Chinese army, Tong Guan was very humble and gave Yelu Moge enough face.

Although he was invincible in this war and won consecutive victories, he was full of enthusiasm and blood at this time, but he still had to keep a low profile when facing his colleagues in the Liao Kingdom, so as not to cause trouble that he couldn't afford.

Yelu's sensual appearance made the eyes of the entire army stand straight. I have seen beautiful women, but I have never seen such a coquettish beauty, but she still looks very dignified, dignified and coquettish.

Of course, our Dashuai Tong is not included in these staring eyeballs. Dashuai Tong doesn't have a little dick, and no amount of coquettish beauty can arouse his covetousness.

Yelu Guyu bluntly said that she came to find Zhao Kai, and Zhao Kai was sent back to the Song Army by "Li Ruolan", saying that it was to numb the vigilance of the Song Army, and she knew about it.

Zhao Kai was really in Tong Guan's tent, he was very embarrassed when he saw Yelu Guyu.

Now that he fished into the sea and returned to the forest, he was eager to draw a line with women like Yelu Guyu and Li Ruolan. As long as he still had a little desire for the throne in his heart, he couldn't keep ambiguous with women of their status.

Brother Yelumo went straight to the point, expressing the hope that the war between the Song Dynasty and Xixia would end here, and how to mediate it will be discussed after Yelugu wants to return to the country and ask Emperor Tianzuo for instructions, but for now, the Xingqing Mansion should not continue to fight.

Because of insufficient authority, Brother Yelumo did not dare to directly arbitrate the war on behalf of the Liao Kingdom. If the opinions he expressed were contrary to Emperor Tianzuo, he would lose his official position and be convicted if he went back, and his life would not be saved.

But at least he needs to protect the Xingqing Mansion from being breached for Yelu Nanxian.

Tong Guan showed a look of embarrassment, saying that this war was initiated by the officials, and the specific extent of the war depends on the officials' intentions. After all, I am the privy envoy of the Song Dynasty, not the Liao Dynasty.

Brother Yelumo took a tough attitude and said that if you continue to attack Xingqing Mansion, our Liao Kingdom will regard it as your Song Dynasty declaring war on Liao, because there are not only Yelu Nanxian and Liao State Posthouses in Xingqing Mansion City, but also many Liao Kingdoms. country's people.

Tong Guan had no choice but to put forward an exchange condition, asking the Xingqing government to allocate ten days of grain to reward the Song soldiers, and if they gave ten days of grain, they would only be surrounded and not fight.

After ten days, we will allocate another ten days of food, and we will be surrounded for another ten days. This will go back and forth six times, and we will wait for two months. up.

The reason why the ten-day ten-day call is also to show the sincerity of the Song army. If they directly ask for two months of military rations, then the Xixia side will inevitably think: You take out all the food in our city, and then break your promise and attack as usual , wouldn't that just break the city?

Under the mediation of Yelu Moge, Xixia's negotiator Songba and Tong Guan reached an agreement.

The negotiation ended in a friendly atmosphere. In the end, Yelu Moge asked the Song Dynasty to send [-] troops to escort Yelugu back to Zhongjing, Liao Kingdom.

Xixia no longer has the ability to allocate soldiers and horses to escort Yelu Guyu, but the Song Dynasty can, and it doesn't matter if the 60 army has more than 4000 people or less than 4000 people.
