If the previous Song army marched and fought steadily, then Wang Juyu's measure in front of Pingxi Fort was undoubtedly very risky.

Maybe Ali Gu and Liang Yiqi will not join forces, so there will be no battle of Pingxi Fort. But that's okay, there's the next step. But this step is what Wang Ju doesn't want to see, not to mention anything else, and look at the road to the west of Thirsty Donkey Ridge to Qingtang City, Brother Zong City.

may join forces, this alliance is exactly what Wang Ju wants, that is, what he calls the reversal, but what he is afraid of is that this fortress wall is not "durable", and there is also a worry that the various departments of Kuozhou can be rebelled by Ali Gu, if one or two tribes are rebelled, it is not a big problem, I am afraid that several big tribes will be rebelled, then it is likely to lead to an accident on the side of the Jishi Army, and it will be a chaotic war at that time.

At the moment, Pingxi Fort is in jeopardy, but these two accidents have not yet happened......

The reversal begins.

Han Xu took Wang Ju's letter and found Yuzang Huama, but the letter didn't say anything, only a rough battle plan.

Yu Zang Hua Ma was shocked when he saw it, and Tubo was finished......

But it's over, his relationship with the Na clan is the same thing, otherwise he would not have betrayed Tubo and defected to Western Xia, let alone Ali Gu.

After reading the letter, he asked, "What did the Taibao ask me to do?" ”

"Send troops to Taozhou."

"Isn't Taozhou pacified?"

"Send troops to the Xihai Longqi Division."

Yuzang Huama understood, and he asked again: "Can I let my son lead the clansmen to the war?" ”

Han Xu naturally knew the intentions of this old guy, he was old, and he was not too old to lead troops. This time, however, his son led the troops. After meritorious service, the court will have another reward. The Yuzang clan can survive for a long time here in Dingxi City.

But this is a good event, Han Xu will not reject it, he agrees with his forehead.

The two units worked together, and a total of five or six thousand light cavalry were dispatched, and they quickly descended to Taozhou and pounced on Dongjishi Mountain.

Over there, Wang Junwan didn't have any foreign workers, and Chongyi continued to lead an army of 10,000 to stay in the area of Xige City to pacify the people. However, Wang Junwan and Miao Zhu began to rush towards the Xibawen coalition army. Don't underestimate the Song army at this time, and it is still the strongest western army, they have no psychological pressure to deal with the Tubo people, there will be no Liaophobia, and the army is stronger than Xibawen.

Swiftly Xibawen's team was in the south of Zhucheng and was defeated by the Song army. Xibawen had no choice but to flee with the defeated army to the eastern end of Jishi Mountain. That is, to the west of the Great Grassland of the Song Dynasty, which is far away from the area controlled by the Song Dynasty.

But on the morning of the third day, he was blocked by Han Xu with two five or six thousand light horsemen, and Xibawen and his son were all captured alive.

However, their bloodline is noble, and it is not easy to kill, so Miao granted the imperial court to proclaim and appease, and awarded some more noble officials and rank officials to Xibawen father and son, Xibawen had to surrender, what if he didn't surrender? Miao Zhu then appeased the people of Xibawen and the Xihai Longwei tribe, but also gave them a stern warning, the imperial court allowed them to make the first mistake, but if they made it again, they would be severely punished the next time. Then he sent Xibawen and his son to the capital, and they didn't even let them stay on the east side of Jishi Mountain, and went to Kaifeng City to enjoy Qingfu, how tired it was to fight back and forth......

The dragons of Henan are leaderless, which is equivalent to the Song Dynasty taking down the Jishi army.

Several soldiers and horses were united, slowly marching towards Pingxi Fort, but this section of the road is still a little far, and many road conditions are not very good, the army is huge, and the marching speed is not fast, so Wang Ju has to continue to stay up in Pingxi Fort, and it will take many days.

But when Han Xu went to find Yuzang Huama, another army also began to assemble.

…………

"Ladies and gentlemen, this time we are going to the enemy's territory, it is Liangzhou, where the Tibetans and Uighurs are the mainstay, and the three armies must obey the following military orders, and all innocent rape and captives will be beheaded."

"Anyone who innocently burns and kills and disturbs the people shall be beheaded."

"Of course, Liangzhou Liugu has fallen for a long time, many of the leaders of the Tibetan tribe are not angry, and have completely fallen to Western Xia, such people, and some party nobles, must be dealt with severely, including their family property, but also to be investigated, who are those people, the scouts have been found out one by one, you can follow the military orders, but these confiscated property, must be handed over, fifty percent of the military expenses, fifty percent of the equal sharing, reward the soldiers of the three armies, including you strong men and horses in the Tibetan department. This campaign is presided over by the Taibao, please believe in the fairness of the Taibao. If someone hides no property without permission, behead! ”

"If you don't fight the enemy in battle, cut it."

"Those who violate military orders will be killed!"

Lin Guang stood on the high platform and said loudly.

These strong men and horses in the audience were confused by so many beheadings, and looked at each other, so Lin Guang said again: "Everyone, the Xia thief sent the main force of Liangzhou to Zongge City, and now Liangzhou is empty, and Liangzhou has been Hexi Dazhou since ancient times, think about how many rich and noble families there are in the city." ”

Western Xia was very poor, and now it is so poor that it is to death, but it does not mean that all nobles are poor to death.

Just like Li Zicheng entered the capital, Chongzhen begged for most of the day, and only donated 200,000 taels of silver from the whole country, but Li Zicheng took it captive casually, and took out 70 million taels of silver.

Liangzhou can't be compared with Beijing at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but as a big state, how can it also capture nearly one million pieces of wealth, not to mention livestock and other booty.

Some of the strong men and strong horses became excited, Lin Guang suppressed the gesture, and said: "Don't worry, this half of the wealth is shared by everyone, so as not to cause unfairness, that is, the forbidden soldiers and soldiers are shared with you in the same way." Next, there is the reward of the imperial court, those who kill a thief or capture a thief will be rewarded with ten pieces of money, those who are low-level generals and nobles will be rewarded with twenty pieces of money, those who are middle-level generals or nobles will be given fifty pieces of money, those who are senior generals will be rewarded with one hundred pieces of money, and those who are the main generals or important deputy generals will be rewarded with five hundred pieces of money. In addition, this participation in the war has caused some damage to the farming production or animal husbandry of your family, so each person is subsidized by the imperial court with an additional ten yuan or the equivalent of ten yuan of commercial cloth! ”

Rumble!

Thousands of strong men exploded along with the strong horses.

It's better to talk about money.

This time, the government forcibly recruited all the able-bodied men and horses between the ages of twenty and forty, although the summer harvest was just over, and the farm work would be delayed to some extent. And we are not disloyal to the Song Dynasty. How many strong men and strong horses died in Vaxia in previous years? Therefore, some strong people and strong horses are somewhat resistant in their hearts.

But now there is such a great reward. It seems that there are no heavy troops there, which means that the trip is very safe, everyone is happy together, and some people start to talk quietly.

In fact, this incentive measure was also promulgated by Wang Ju, and in the end very little money was given, most of them were still given to merchants, where did these goods come from, and they would be purchased from those merchants and workshop owners who paid the vermilion money truthfully.

The magnates paid only half of the business tax. For example, if a workshop is taxed, it is equivalent to letting the merchants pay, then they only need to pay half of the three percent tax, that is, 1.5 percent of the commercial tax, which is such a light commercial tax, many people are still resisting, think about it, even the sons of the great elders, or the state-supported enterprises, it is impossible to pay only 1.5% of the tax......

Some are not even powerful. Because of his attachment to the name of the magnates, he only paid half of the commercial tax.

So these people are resisting. In addition, the hearts of honest tax businessmen are also unbalanced.

This is also the sequelae of playing balance, Wang Ju wants to balance and pull, it is so easy. Therefore, most of the Tibetan troops and strong men and horses who participated in the war this time were rewarded with their scarce commercial goods.

This amount is not small, which is equivalent to making up for another group of merchants, but at the same time, some of the merchant goods are far away from the northwest, and they may have to pay three or four taxes, which means that the imperial court can also use the form of commercial tax to recover 78 percent of the money......

But these are not what these strong men and horses can understand, anyway, they are given money, and they are also buying all kinds of commercial goods, the same.

It's happening everywhere.

Liang Yikui also calculated the strength of Lanzhou, Jingyuan Road, and even the strength of Qinfeng Road. However, among these three roads, only Jingyuan Road has the most soldiers and horses, and the troops of Xihe Road and Qinfeng Road are the same thing. But Wang Ju has sent 60,000 troops to Hehuang, and the remaining long borders, so many forts, and many borders have been snatched from the Western Xia Tubo people in the past two years, and a large number of officers and soldiers must be sent to stay behind, how many soldiers and horses can be transferred from the border of the Song Dynasty?

Transferred a lot, it just so happened that Western Xia could send troops, anyway, Western Xia only used that part of the troops in Liangzhou and Ganzhou, and ninety percent of them were still so-called conscripts, and the main force was still assembled in Lingzhou, Xingqing Mansion and Helan Mountain.

Why did Lingzhou pop up again, there was no way, the Song Dynasty destroyed it, the Western Xia rebuilt it, and built several strong forts in Killing Niuling to prevent the Song army from going north again.

If the Song army stopped fighting, the Western Xia would be able to rest and recuperate, maybe because of the vacancy of many places, the Western Xia would be able to quickly become strong and strong after more than ten years.

Either transfer troops from Huanqing Road, and wait until the army of Huanqing Road arrives in Liangzhou, I am afraid that Wang Ju will be captured alive a long time ago.

However, Liang Yi calculated and calculated, counting all the soldiers and horses, that is, the strong men and strong horses of the various departments, at least their combat effectiveness was stronger than the so-called servants of Western Xia.

Now there are five roads on the edge, and there are no tens of thousands of strong men and strong horses along the way?

The three armies are assembled, Yao Xiong and Miao Lu are the front army, Wang Guangyu is the chief general of the three armies, Lin Guang is the deputy general of the three armies, Li Xian is the commander of the marching army, and he is in charge of the rear army. Later, Yao Ji temporarily replaced Wang Guangyu to preside over the military defense of Lanzhou, and he couldn't leave the army, so he let the Xixia people steal the chickens. At the same time, he also left a lot of soldiers and horses, so Liang Yiqi did not miscalculate, but undercounted these strong men and horses......

80,000 soldiers and horses, 40,000 officers and soldiers, and 40,000 strong men and horses killed the Yellow River and pounced on Liangzhou.

Xixia has not yet reacted, 80,000 troops quickly took Gaizhu City, and quickly pounced under the city of Liangzhou, Xixia left thousands of officers and soldiers in Liangzhou City, but under the stimulation of wealth, even these strong people were killed, and Wang Guangyu's line, the most important thing is that the enemy is the Liangzhou defenders, but most of these defenders are the soldiers of the original Liugu Department, and now half of the Ding Zhuang outside the city let Renduo Baozhong take to Tubo, life and death did not go, and so many Song troops killed over, and morale was low.

Therefore, the Song army was like a bamboo, quickly killed under the city of Liangzhou, and after only two days, the city of Liangzhou was captured.

Then the Song army entered the city and captured prisoners of war, not all of these prisoners of war were from the Liugu tribe, and later the Western Xia also successively migrated many party members to settle down, Wang Ju's current Hehuang policy was basically the same as the original Western Xia, but it was the people of the Liugu tribe. Arrest as well. It's a big deal to go through labor camp for two years first. After screening, the soldiers of the Rokutani, who were friendly to the Song Dynasty, were released one after another after the war subsided. If it really doesn't work, you can also use these Ding Zhuang to win over some Tibetan tribes.

Wang Guangyu followed the news found out by the scouts, and searched for all the party nobles in the city. Or the Uighur nobles and merchants loyal to the Western Xia were all killed, and their family property was confiscated.

If it was before, maybe this move would have caused a lot of controversy, but in front of that mountain of corpses and wreckage, there is no sound now. Moreover, the Song army is now screening and killing, and for ordinary people, they basically did not commit any crimes in autumn.

In fact, there is another layer of intention, in the future, without these big nobles and big leaders, the Song Dynasty will also be easy to govern.

At this time, Liang Yikui came to his senses. But before he could come up with a strategy, the Song army went south again. That is, the road where Li Yuanhao invaded Maoniu City, and now Renduo Baozhong entered Zongge City.

Well, just when Zongge City and Qingtang City were empty, they went to the old nest of Ali bones.

And all the way to kill, he got thousands of prisoners of war, as well as a lot of grain and grass, so Wang Wenyu let these prisoners of war carry the grain and rush south.

Liang Yikui hurriedly sent someone to deliver a letter to Ali Gu, you have to immediately divide your troops to defend Maoniu City, otherwise your rear will not be protected.

However, this road of the Song army still could not reach Maoniucheng quickly, and even though it was summer, the road was still a rugged road, and it was not even as wide as the road in Dadou Bagu...... So Liang Yikui prepared to dispatch troops to block the 80,000 Song troops in Qilian Mountain.

But he miscalculated a place and a person, Hedong Road and Zhang Qi.

Zhang Qi handed over to Kumamoto last autumn and immediately went to Hedong Road, and then trained the whole army, but it seemed very calm, coupled with Wang Ju's prestige and the use of troops in Hehuang, so that the Western Xia people forgot about him.

Indeed, in addition to the soldiers on Fulin Road, the remaining soldiers on Hedong Road have not been tested by war for a long time, and their combat effectiveness is no longer the strong Hedong Army of the original Northern Han Dynasty.

But this problem is not big, there is also the Fulin Road army, and the border army that Yao Lin has trained for several years, and there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers on the side of the Yellow River. These three forces are actually enough, but this time Zhang Kai still brought a lot of Hedong soldiers.

That's the real grinding.

After all, once the Western Xia was pacified, the enemy he might face was the Liao State, and at that time, regardless of Hedong and Hebei, he must have a strong army on his own territory.

Hedong Road and Yanzhou Road sent a total of nearly 100,000 troops, plus 50,000 people, when it was time to work the people, although Wang Ju wanted not to work the people, it was impossible, a total of 150,000 soldiers and civilians, one east and one south, mighty pounced on Yinzhou.

Yinzhou lost the support of Hengshan, and only resisted for a few days, and once again declared lost.

But this time, the Song army no longer plundered, but forced the people of each village to be loyal to the Song Dynasty, not only loyal, but also all the people of the village wrote an oath, pressed the bloody handprint, and then killed the captured nobles and leaders, and swore an oath of murder!

For this cruel oath, ordinary party members attach more importance to it.

If you don't agree, you can also, please go out of the ancient Great Wall, that is, the Great Wall of the Qin and Han Dynasties, inside is the Xixia Mida Cave Left Wing Divine Warrior Division station, but this elite army has been tossed by Liang Yiwei a few years ago, plus last year's defeat again, it is already in name only, in addition to Yinzhou, Shizhou, Longzhou, from Longzhou to the West Ancient Great Wall began to be intermittent again.

Then distribute grain and grass to the people, so that they can repair this ancient Great Wall, which is not the same as it was in the Qin and Han dynasties.

In fact, the real Great Wall in the future is not in this section, but in Yinshan, Montenegro, and Muna Mountain, and the reason why this section of the Great Wall is being repaired now is to play a temporary defensive role and stabilize the occupied territory first. Second, with a solid line of defense, people can be migrated from Hedong to settle down, and this area can no longer be made into the nest of the Tuoba people, otherwise it will not be able to be governed in the future. The third is to be a punishment, otherwise the Yongle City tragedy will occur, and the Song Dynasty will also spend a lot of money to transfer grain and grass from the rear for them to live, and the Song Dynasty is too cheap.

Two paths, the choice is yours.

But how do these people choose? Flee again, haven't escaped enough last year? Because there is no food in the situation, the area has begun to eat.

Moreover, the Song army strongly arrested all the leaders of the major tribes and sacrificed their lives, without the leadership of these big leaders, that people are still willing to work for the Western Xia?

The Song army of the two roads forced all the people in the village to kill people and swear allegiance all the way, and advanced all the way.

Liang Yi had no choice but to order. Where to transfer troops and horses from the Xiping Military Division (Guazhou). Block the back road into the Song army in Qilian Mountain. At the same time, send someone to send a message to Ali Gu, the military strategy you formulated is not working, immediately send the army back to hold on, and wait for our Western Xia army to arrive, and attack from the north and south.

This may be a matter of waiting, not to mention how far it is from Guazhou to the Qilian Pass where the Song army entered, it will take a while to mobilize soldiers and horses. This is not a ready-made soldier or horse, but a conscription of each village!

At the same time, he personally gathered 150,000 troops and killed Xiazhou.

The strategic goal that Wang Ju said in the capital has been half implemented, and it cannot be said that it will be reversed, and now Pingxi Fort is becoming more and more dangerous. But in any case, it also achieved the other purpose that Wang Ju said, that is, it was still the hand of the Tangut people who made the first move.

…………

Wang Guangyu led the three armies to the ancient dragon bone city.

Although it is located in Qibian Mountain, it is adjacent to the Qingshui River (Haoyu River, that is, the upper reaches of the Datong River), so "the water rinses the cold and knocks the jade." The mountains are green and blue. Although it lives in the north, it seems to be in the south of the Yangtze River. "There's also a little oasis here. And the terrain is very dangerous, control the six ridges of the choke (cut, non-false), look down at the Qingshui River, and control the Wuerjian ferry port in the east (a very important ferry on the Karo River).

Therefore, Tong Guan in history ordered Liu Fa to fight for this place, and placed a Zhenwu army here. The Western Xia had no choice but to build Tong'an Castle on the Karagawa River below. But this Tong'an city became the burial place of Liu Fa, Liu Fa was in the ancient dragon bone, Renduoquan victory, the shock of Kansai, the name of the law as the head, became the nightmare of the Xixia people. As a result, Tong Guan was blind and arrogant, and let Liu Fa send troops to Lingxing (maybe there is a mistake in the history books, from the ancient dragon bones to Lingzhou Xingzhou?) Liu Fa disagreed, and Tong Guan forced: "When Jun was in Beijing, he was personally ordered by the king, and he said that he would succeed, but it is difficult now, why not?" ”

Liu Fa had no choice but to lead an army of 20,000 to Tong'an City, and met Cha Ge.

At that time, Xiao Liu Fa was already the old Liu Fa, but Brother Cha was in his prime, in fact, when Liu Fa was at his peak, he was not as good as Brother Cha, in Wang Ju's heart, this person was a super general who was comparable to Erwu Han Shizhong, even if the current Liu Changzuo and Miao Zhi were not as good as them. Or Wang Shao is alive, and he can almost compare with him. As for Wang Ju himself and Zhang Qi, it's not easy to say, the two of them are scheming, not killing the enemy in person.

As a result, Liu Fa was defeated, and not only the 20,000 troops and horses were wiped out in this battle, but also the miscellaneous soldiers and men who marched with the army with 80,000 in the rear were also wiped out.

This figure may be incorrect, but the ratio of regular soldiers to civilian miscellaneous servants is generally between 1 to 1 to 1 to 0.5, and at most it will not exceed 1 to 2. See the number of people in the two battles of the Song army in Qigou Pass of the Gaoliang River, or Xue Rengui's expedition to Qinghai, which was only 50,000 regular troops and 50,000 people. 20,000 regular troops, need so many services of miscellaneous servants? At this point, the regular army took so many miscellaneous servants from the ancient dragon bone city to Xingzhou? It may be that the historical records are wrong, it should be that he and Liu Zhongwu took the Kaluo River, the 20,000 military horses were the front army, and the 80,000 soldiers and horses behind were the Chinese army and the rear army.

Anyway, Liu Fa one, two, three, let Brother Cha die.

But now it is not that there are no generals in Western Xia, but under the power of the Liang family, nepotism, these generals have no chance to stand out. So Wang Ju deliberately let go of Liang Yibury back then, if history repeats itself, it doesn't matter if he lets it go or not, but as long as history can be changed, the significance of letting Liang Yi buried is far greater than the significance of capturing him.

As long as the Liang family is in Western Xia, it can only lead Western Xia to the fate of decay!

But now that Brother Cha has grown up, in the face of such a bad situation in Western Xia, he is probably also helpless.

But Xixia placed a fort here in the ancient dragon bone city, some people called it the ancient dragon bone city, and some people directly called the ancient dragon bone, because this fort was too small. It is also the boundary between Western Xia and Tibet, but the terrain is extremely dangerous.

Tens of thousands of Song troops came in a mighty way, the momentum was there, and the marching speed slowed down.

And in order to save the people's power in the rear, the Song army did not launch any people to escort grain and grass, and the original task of escorting grain was handed over to the battalions of strong men and horses, and they were people when marching and soldiers when fighting. Of course, because this line has rich rewards, and the harvest in Liangzhou has been distributed, and a team of soldiers and horses was sent to Lanzhou to send the captured cattle and sheep, so these strong men and horses will not complain.

The more south the road became, and as far as Zongge City, this trip also brought a lot of grain and grass, and also captured a lot of grain and grass from Liangzhou, but fortunately, a large number of livestock and prisoners of war were captured at the same time, so the three armies came to the ancient dragon bone city slowly.

This gave the Western Xia an opportunity to gather an army, and some of the remnants of the Western Xia soldiers in Kaluochuan entered the ancient dragon bone city, and received an order from Liang Yiqi to defend the city no matter what.

Wang Wenyu had no choice but to order the forcible capture of the Ancient Dragon Bone City, because he couldn't afford to delay it.

But this small city was too difficult to attack, and all the 100 small cannons in General Wang Wenyu were moved out, but none of them worked, and then he forcibly ordered the prisoners of war in the army to be cannon fodder and charge in front, but it still didn't work.

It was attacked for three days and nearly 2,000 soldiers were sacrificed before it was taken.

Wang Wenyu was so angry that he attacked all the way from Gaizhu City (where the Zhuo Luo Military Division was located) to Huizhou, and the casualties were only more than 1,000 people, but under this small city, there were 2,000 casualties. In a fit of rage, he ordered all the prisoners to be hanged together and hung on a tree trunk outside the ancient dragon bone city.

Before the Song Dynasty, there was a strange atmosphere, preaching benevolence at every turn, did the Xixia people preach benevolence with you? Don't talk about Western Xia, don't say that this is the era of cold weapons, let's talk about American imperialism, how many people died because of the invasion of American imperialism, that's it, people still talk about "benevolence" and the spirit of "human rights" every day......

It wasn't until Wang Ju ordered Liu Changzuo to dig up more than 100,000 corpses together and display them all the way to the capital, which awakened the violent spirit of the three armies.

This move frightened the captives who followed.

Wang Wenyu didn't pay attention to them, but called Yao Xiong and Miao Lu, the two generals, and said, "You immediately lead 15,000 cavalry, only five days of dry food, set off lightly, and quickly attack Maoniucheng. ”

No more slow swallowing.

But what is needed is this effect, it turns out that it is as warm as water, so it is necessary to suddenly send the forward army to send troops at the fastest speed, which will make the Tubo people negligent.

And this march is the key to the key to the health, from here to Qingtang City or Zongge City, there are many canyons, from Huangzhou to Zongge City Qingtang City also have many canyons, so it is called the Three Gorges of Huangchuan, can be compared with the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, it can be seen that the terrain is bad.

Once the Tubo army was allowed to strangle Maoniucheng in time, and then slowly divided the troops to help, with the treacherous terrain in this area, tens of thousands of Song troops were trapped here. Of course, it is impossible to attack from the inside and outside, as Liang Yiqi imagined, God knows when the reinforcements from Guazhou will arrive, and how much combat effectiveness can the group of Uighurs who have temporarily gathered at the point of sale? If you don't come, if you come, most of them are food deliveries.

But the problem is that this line of work is useless.

Even if Ali Gu withdrew his troops from Pingxi Fort, then the Song army had to attack step by step, and in that way, with the terrain in this area, the Song army did not know how many casualties there were.

Only by taking Cat Cow City in advance is the real turning point of this series of battles.

But if you want to take Maoniu City, it is very difficult, it is not more than two hundred miles from here to Maoniu City, but there are many roads that are rugged and unimaginable, and even nearly half of the road, you must get off the horse and lead the war horse along the cliff road. This is the road that can take two days to reach. This refers to Yao Miao's light cavalry army, if it is replaced by a large army, I am afraid it will take six or seven days to arrive!

And remembered the role of the surprise soldiers, so Wang Wenyu only let them bring dry food for five days, as for the siege equipment, there are in the army, but it is impossible for them to carry it. So I had to take some grappling hooks and forcibly attack Maoniucheng, which gave Li Yuanhao a headache for 100,000 soldiers and horses!

However, the two did not hesitate and said, "Wow." ”

As he dismounted and gathered troops and horses, and left the Ancient Dragon Bone City, Wang Wenyu stood on the head of the city and looked around, making a big circle, which was actually for Yao Miao's line! I don't know if I can make it.

The turning point of victory and defeat...... Whether Ali Gu and Ren Duo Baozhong can capture Pingxi Fort in advance, as long as they are captured, no matter whether Wang Ju can escape safely or not, the battle situation will be favorable to Tubo and Western Xia. If Yao Miao's second general captures Maoniu City, Wang Ju can still hold Pingxi Fort, and the tide of the battle will be completely reversed. (To be continued.) )
