"Where is Gong Li taking us?" A bearded commander said dissatisfiedly.

The forward army of Western Xia had quickly entered the front lines, but because of Wang Ju's instructions, most of the troops from all over the Huanqing Road were gathered on the front line, so the Western Xia did not launch a tentative attack, but waited for the arrival of large troops in the rear.

Although the Song Dynasty may be given some preparations, this time will be very fast, at most four or five days, and Huanqing Road will not be able to react.

It's only temporary, and there's no fighting ahead.

But the enemy is coming in batches, and God knows when the Tanguts will attack?

However, now Li Fugui disregarded the safety of the front, and asked the generals above the command to leave the forts and return to Gyeongju to discuss the military situation.

Then go to Gyeongju, but when I arrived in Gyeongju, I was taken out of the city by Li Fugui, stepped through the frozen Malyeong water, and came to a remote mountain nest in Malyeongsan.

Isn't that a deterrent?

"Peng, don't complain." Yao said.

"General Yao, how dare I complain." The commander surnamed Peng said resentfully.

In the Song Dynasty, military generals were worthless, and civil officials killed them if they wanted to. Just like Li Fugui, for several defeated generals, if you want to kill them, you will kill them, and if you want to let them go.

But the courtiers in the court only said that Li Fugui should not be a side affair at most, who said that he killed the wrong thing?

"Commanding Peng, don't complain, today you will [see a great news]." Yao said.

"What's the news?"

"I'll find out right away."

The group entered the mountain nest, which was very remote and surrounded by cliffs. However, when entering the mountain nest, everyone also noticed that something was wrong. There are many soldiers patrolling the mouth of the nest and the peaks on all sides.

Into the mountain nest. I found something wrong. That is, there are already many people in the mountain nest.

"Ming Gong really understands military affairs." Xiao Yao thought to herself.

Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles, so a general who is often defeated often does not know the other, which in turn will make people know themselves. A general who fights a hundred battles and civilians, but he will know the enemy, and he will not let the enemy know himself.

There are various reasons why the three major battles of Qingli failed. But on the whole, if you are like a fool and are led by the enemy, will it be like Wang Ju? It was about to "bubble", and the enemy continued to be in the valley.

It's not as divine as Yao Lin thinks, if it weren't for Zhang Ji's Jianyi, Wang Ju would have publicly handed over to Li Fugui a long time ago.

Now it has been kept secret, including these important generals, and there are only about a dozen people who know that Wang Ju has come to Gyeongju.

"Gong Li, I want to trouble you." Wang Ju said as he stood under a few pine trees on a dirt slope.

Li Fugui was a little displeased.

"Say."

"Trouble Lee Gonglin when he left Gyeongju. Go to Dashun City again and go to Dashun City to inspect in a high-profile manner. ”

"Tell me why." Li Fugui was even more displeased.

Wang Julai handed over, Li Fugui was stunned, although he was conceited, it was 300,000 enemies, how dare he have the courage to meet the enemy?

However, Wang Ju was sneaky, and he didn't come for many days, but he commanded himself in Sanyuan. Later, when he came, he didn't come forward, let alone handed over, and continued to command himself remotely. Then bear with it, at least you have to deal with the 300,000 Western Xia army by yourself. However, Li Fugui must not be very happy in his heart. Now Wang Ju's request is even more unreasonable. The army of the back road of Western Xia came in a steady stream with lightning speed. It is clear that the Great War is about to break out.

If you go to Daesun City by yourself and go back to Gyeongju, won't the war break out? To go by yourself or not to go?

"Gong Li, this is the sparse fold I wrote, and I am about to send a messenger to deliver it to the official family with fast feet." Wang Ju took out a piece of music from his sleeve and handed it to Li Fugui to read.

The front is written Gyeongju's form shì.

Including the defense of Lee Fu-gyu.

Although the Battle of Fort was indeed lost, it was strategically beneficial to the Song Dynasty. Strategy is more important than campaign.

The most famous example is that Li Yuanhao started a war with Tubo and was defeated repeatedly, so the result was not the decline of Western Xia. Wrong, but Tibet is decaying. Although there were several major defeats, which caused heavy losses to the Western Xia people, they also achieved Li Yuanhao's strategic significance.

There is another example, that is, Xiao Yanyan went south, and during that southward journey, the Liao State and the Song army had several tragic battles, and they were also many failures. In terms of losses, Liao's losses are even greater. But in the end, Song Zhenzong was forced to form an alliance under the city, which was a defeat in the battle and a strategic victory. There are many examples like this, such as the Battle of the Hundred Regiments in Wang Ju's previous life, which dealt a severe blow to the arrogance of the Japanese Invaders, but caused a serious loss to the Party itself. As a result of this war, the Japanese invaders noticed the party, and the encroachment policy came, and as a result, in just one year, the base area shrank by more than half, which also led to a rapid rise in prices in the base area of Shaanxi. But he couldn't help but resist the Japanese, and Taizu had no choice but to eat Coptis chinensis.

Wang Ju began by explaining the difference.

And it is also convincing, if it weren't for Li Fugui's troops this time, Western Xia would continue to build forts, and the twelve plates and false forts would be completed, and the enemy could advance or retreat, what else would he have to do to deal with the 300,000 army?

When Li Fugui saw this, his face softened.

With Wang Ju's statement, his career will be much more open in the future, otherwise his career will be extremely gloomy when he leaves Gyeongju.

Then there were some plans of Wang Ju.

"Zi'an, can the court agree?"

"I only have 80,000 troops in my hands, and the officers and soldiers I use are only about 60,000, and the enemy has as many as 300,000.

Li Fugui shook his head.

"Besides, before I came, the officials allowed me to act cheaply."

"That's good, but why let me continue to go to Dashun City." Li Fugui's tone of voice at this time was much more relaxed, and everyone carried the sedan chair together, Wang Ju gave himself the step down, and he also wanted to give Wang Ju a little face.

"Continue to confuse the enemy. Li Gong, in fact, I don't have any bottom in my heart, but in the eyes of the Western Xia people, they regard me as the number one enemy. If they find out that I have come to Gyeongju to strengthen my troops, what will I do? Therefore, not only do I need to be wronged by Li Gong and go to Dashun City, but I also need to be wronged by Li Gong to continue to give a few orders for me. ”

"That's just as well." Li Fugui didn't think much about it.

"Then let's get out."

Several people walked out.

Not all the commanders knew Wang Ju. But there are many people who can recognize Wang Ju.

Some of the commanders were surprised and said, "Why is Wang Zhixian also here?" ”

"That Wang Zhixian?"

"Ann, the prince of the king."

"Ahh

Immediately many people became excited. At least compared to Lee Fu-gyu. Wang Ju is much more reliable. It's just that some people are worried that they don't know what official position Wang Julai holds on Huanqing Road, and whether Li Fugui will obey Wang Jujian.

Li Fugui was a little appreciative, but fortunately, his military exploits in the Song Dynasty were not so valuable. Wang Ju just has no military merits, and it will be a matter of time before he enters the two mansions in the future.

Wang Ju waved his hand to make the big guy quiet.

There were quite a few people who came, nearly 200 people, and the number of envoys alone reached more than 130.

Wang Ju said: "Imperial court edict. Let me pick up with Li Bus, serve as the new governor of Gyeongju, and concurrently pass through the Huanqing Road to appease and recruit Shaanxi Road to pacify the envoy, this is an edict, everyone take a look. ”

He took out his command.

It wasn't really that person who came up to see it, but there was an immediate cheer from below.

Until now, we don't know how many enemies are coming, but according to the reports of the scouts, there may be more than 100,000 enemies coming to invade.

To say that you are not worried and scared is pure nonsense. How many commands can be compared with Liu Changzuo and others? With Wang Ju as the coach. That undoubtedly adds a certainty and guarantee of victory. I can't blame everyone for not believing in Li Fugui, last year's battles. I really can't do it.

Wang Ju retracted his edict and said: "However, in order to make the Xixia people relax, please keep this news secret, and I must not order it, whoever leaks it should be dealt with by military law." ”

"Whoa." The crowd replied in unison.

"The enemy is coming, maybe in two or three days there will be an attack, and we must prepare immediately. I first issued the first order, from the west of the first line of Hongdezhai, Ansaibao, Yele Town, and Liyuan Fort, regardless of the people in the fort and outside the fort, all the people in the fort and outside the fort should evacuate to the rear as quickly as possible. ”

At the same time, he quickly ordered all the people to quickly transport all the grain and livestock in their homes, except for the large livestock, to the forts. After the war, the grain paid by each household was returned according to the quantity of the type handed in, and 20 percent of the interest was repaid to support the people. As for the livestock, after being handed over to the forts, they were slaughtered on the spot, half of which were handed over to the government, and half of which were taken away by the people on the road as food, and after the war, the government compensated them with copper coins or jiaozi, or the equivalent of cloth, tea, porcelain and ironware. As for the ordinary clothing, they were marked and registered, and stored in the forts and taken home after the war. ”

"Where did the people go?" A general asked.

"The people first withdrew to the direction of Ningzhou, Pizhou, Qianzhou and Zhengbaiqu in the rear, and I prepared a large amount of grain in the rear as early as possible, and also sent the people to build temporary shacks, and at the same time transferred a large amount of charcoal so that the people could keep out the cold." Wang Ju explained.

This order also meant that the imperial court had to spend more money.

However, its advantage is that it can quickly ensure that the grain and grass of each fort can be fully guaranteed, and it also relieves the pressure of the rear people's escort. After all, transporting grain and other materials to Ningzhou and Qianzhou is the same as transporting them to the front line in Gyeongju.

If you are in Zhengbaiqu, you don't even have to transport it.

Moreover, if war is about to break out and it needs to be "released", transportation will become an even more headache.

Someone else asked, "Prince." ”

"Call me Minggong."

This prince has thundered the king.

"Ming Gong, but time is too urgent."

"You mean it's too late for the people."

"Yes, a big war can break out at any time."

"If it's too late, all the food and clothing will be burned on the spot."

"That would cause panic among the people." Dou Shunqing said.

"General Dou, this is inevitable, but this is what I want. If the people are not flustered, how can the Tangut people be careless? War will inevitably bring harm to the people. But if it fails, the damage will be greater. In doing so, I will bring harm to the people, but I will also minimize the harm to the people. ”

"But these are all border areas, and ninety percent of the people are Tibetans, and they may not obey the orders of the imperial court." Another will say.

"Send someone to persuade them, and if they don't listen, they have to do it." Wang Judao.

At present, even the Fan people are afraid of death, but there are a few large Fan people on Huanqing Road, who are usually unruly, such as the Murong clan in Huanzhou, which is becoming more and more rampant, can Wang Ju manage it? If you can't manage it forcibly, can't you break your brain?

"Secondly, in the rear of this line, all the people in the suburbs who belong to the two prefectures of Huanqing must also withdraw to the rear. Grain, grass, clothing, livestock and livestock are also dealt with, but this group of people can be a little longer, but they must all be evacuated within five days. ”

"Do the people in the suburbs behind Gyeongju also want to evacuate?" Another will ask.

"Withdraw." Wang Ju said categorically.

Zhang Kai's strategy was to let go, once 300,000 enemy troops were put in, the entire Huanqing Road would not be safe anywhere.

He also said: "At the same time, the strong men and horses who do not want to fight, but also agree to their withdrawal, and those who are willing to fight, after the war, will be rewarded with two silk horses, plus a cotton jacket, to keep out the cold in time of war." If the people of the non-military service were willing to serve the country in battle, they were treated in the same way as strong men and horses, and for each enemy killed or captured on the battlefield, they were rewarded with ten silks. ”

However, in addition to the strong men and horses that had been trained, the rest of the people, Wang Ju and Huachi County, the same practice, was mainly used to defend the city and increase the strength of the city.

When you go out to fight in the field, you can't count on these people, and maybe you will mess up the formation of the army. But that's going to have to happen later.

"Ladies and gentlemen, go out of the valley at once, and convey this order to your own soldiers. But remember, don't say I'm coming to Gyeongju for the time being. ”

When it came to the generals above the command, all of them had personal soldiers, but for the sake of secrecy, these personal soldiers were not put in. They were just outside the valley.

Nearly 100 people came to the valley again to give orders.

The rest were the commanders of the battalions of the Baojie Army brought by Wang Ju from Zheng Baiqu.

After giving the order, the generals returned to the valley.

However, some people have already realized that this is a complete solid wall. Once it is carried out, the Western Xia people will pour into the territory of Gyeongju and will get nothing. Can the rest of the house be used as clothing or food?

Then as long as the war lasts for a long time, the supply will give the Tangut people a headache.

Wang Ju looked at everyone and said, "The second order is to place a brigade and a brigade general. (To be continued......) R1292
