Chapter 686 Two idiots who cast themselves into the net

Wang Ning'an ran all the way, and all kinds of information were sent. While he was taking a temporary rest, Wang Ning'an sent some information to Han Zhongyan. He looked at it from beginning to end, and his back suddenly became wet.

According to these information, after the loss of Hengshan Line, Xixia's situation was indeed becoming more and more difficult.

Hengshan is of great significance to Xixia.

First, Hengshan has pastures, farmland, salt and iron, which is the second largest source of wealth in Xixia. Its importance is even before the Hexi Corridor. Apart from Hetao, it is Hengshan.

Secondly, the Qiang people in Hengshan were the main source of Shanbazi, and Shanbazi was the main force in the Western Xia infantry battle.

Third, Hengshan is in a dangerous terrain. If you control the Hengshan line, you will have strategic initiative and can attack the Song Dynasty at will without worrying about counterattack.

Back then, Li Yuanhao also took over Yinzhou, Youzhou, Weizhou and other places, and had completely mastered Hengshan before he ascended the throne and became emperor and established a country. Without Hengshan as a barrier, Xixia would not have been able to establish a country!

Of course, Li Liangzuo didn't want to give up such a precious piece of land easily.

But the Song Dynasty's offensive was too fierce. If it continued to be consumed, the Western Xia would have to fight with its elite troops. When the 100,000-strong capturing army was fought all, Li Liangzuo really didn't know what else to rely on!

After careful consideration and discussion with Liang Yi, he decided to give up Hengshan.

Of course, he did not really give up, but lure the enemy into deeper and strive to annihilate the Song army in Lingzhou and Qingzhou. As long as he defeated the main force of the Song army, he would be able to recover the Hengshan line.

It’s just that Li Liangzuo misjudged his opponent.

Wang Ning'an did not continue to attack at all. Instead, he vigorously managed Hengshan, using it as a barrier to the northwest, and attacked the frontier positions of Xixia.

Wang Ning'an used this move, which immediately made Li Liangzuo's teeth itchy and cut a piece of meat in vain, and he was not fooled at all!

As the troops retreated, the army squeezed into small areas such as Qingzhou, and they were constantly conflicting with each other and had many conflicts. Some people even wanted to secretly communicate with the Song Dynasty.

Li Liangzuo killed people, no worse than his father. During this period, thousands of people were executed openly... Based on various information, Han Zhongyan quickly judged the situation in Xixia.

"Grandpa Wang, someone wants to surrender to the Song Dynasty, this is true! But this Yu Zang Huama must be fake!"

Wang Ning'an leaned beside the poplar tree and listened carefully. Han Zhongyan continued: "Li Liangzuo was cruel and ruthless. Once he found out that he colluded with the Song Dynasty, even the nobles of the Western Xia would be dead and would never be lucky. But after Yu Zanghuama was severely punished, he could still guard Lingzhou and hold military power. This is unusual!"

Han Zhongyan judged: "Bizhi believes that it should be the bait thrown by Xixia deliberately to lure our army into the bait."

Wang Ning'an nodded, "A few months ago, Zhu Lingling led 100,000 people to surrender to the Song Dynasty. I just gave him a banner, not because I was cruel. I was really worried. If Zhu Lingling pretended to surrender, the army would not be able to come back. This time we have all the advantages of military and financial resources. As long as we follow the steps and push them over, it will be enough to win. Why bother to play tricks! What kind of tricks do we have!"

Wang Ning'an hit the ground hard, his eyes full of murderous aura.

He and Di Qing are both old fryes, and they are invincible for all poisons. Xixia is playing tricks and can't deceive Wang Ning'an at all. Low-level things like deception are even more unfair.

It's ridiculous. The secret spy department thought it was self-righteous. They didn't find the magic method to win at all, but instead trapped 70,000 people.

If you simply strive for merit, it would be fine, but according to various signs, things will definitely not be simple.

Forget it!

After the battlefield is solved, I will definitely kill a river of blood when I turn around. No one can be involved in it!

"Walk!"

Wang Ning'an only rested for an hour, then immediately set off and continued to come to Hongzhou.

...

Just as Wang Ning'an was rushing to go quickly, Tan Xian and Gao Zunyu, with their men, had been walking for 5 days and entered 300 miles in Xixia.

Zhong Gu was a general who led his troops. He suddenly ordered him to lead his troops to welcome the surrendered people that day. Zhong Gu was a little resistant. Without any information, Wang Ning'an did not have the order, so he dragged tens of thousands of people out. It was too vague.

But Tan Xian and Gao Zunyu were both imperial envoys, and they took out the information sent by the spy department, which was indeed the case.

Zhong Gu was afraid of missing the military opportunity, so he came out.

However, as they went deeper into the Western Xia territory, Zhong Gu discovered the problem. Legend has it that the people of the Western Xia people were not seen for a long time. Instead, the Shenwei, Longwei, and several border troops followed and gathered together, with a total of 60,000 to 70,000 people.

That’s not all. In addition, many civilians drove away the pack horses and brought dried meat, salt and fried noodles and clear water... They stopped doing it. This is not to pick up people, it is clearly going to war!

He found two imperial envoys to question, and these two people only said that the Xixia tribes had nothing and that the food was given to them.

Zhong Gu was sent back to the tent, and he immediately found his second brother Zhong E.

"Second, I'm thinking that something is getting worse and worse. You should leave quickly and inform Mr. Wang immediately and ask what's going on!"

Zhuanyou nodded, "Brother, you have to pay more attention. That old castrated dog doesn't look like a good thing."

"I know."

After sending my second brother away, another day passed, they were still moving forward, getting closer and closer to Lingzhou.

Zhonggu could no longer bear it.

"The imperial envoy, the army went deeper and had already violated a taboo. The so-called surrendered people have not seen it for a long time. Your actions have violated the military rules. I, I want to impeach you!"

Hearing Zhong Gu's words, Tan Xian and Gao Zunyu didn't care. Gao Zunyu laughed, "General Zhong, of course, someone surrendered, but this person is in Lingzhou City!"

"What? Are you going to attack Lingzhou?"

"That's right! We are going to attack Lingzhou!"

"No!" Zhong Gu suddenly stood up, "Two imperial envoys, Wang Xianggong had already given orders to not attack Xixia. What's more, Lingzhou is a city building. We have no siege equipment and no food or grass. The food rations around us last for up to seven days. How can we take Lingzhou? Isn't this the same joke?"

"Hahaha!" Gao Zunyu's rough laughter rang out.

"What's the problem? Yu Zang Huama agreed to be an insider. As soon as the troops arrived, he would immediately open the city. After entering Lingzhou, would he still worry about not having food?"

The more you listen to the sacred word, the more something is wrong.

"What a joke, put the winner and loser on one person! And this person is the surrendered general of Qing Tang surrendering to Xixia. How can you believe him?

Zhong Gu was completely angry at this time, "Eunuch Tan, General Gao! Although you are the imperial envoys, you can't do anything wrong! I'm sorry that Zang cannot be with you!"

Zhong Gu turned around and was about to leave, Gao Zunyu stretched out his hand and stopped Zhong Gu.

"What? A man surnamed Gao, do you still want to make a move?" Zhong Gu raised his eyebrows, full of domineeringness.

Gao Zunyu smiled faintly, "General Zhong, don't get me wrong, I'm asking you to see something."

As he said that, he sent the order from the Political Affairs Hall to Zong Gu.

Zhong Gu looked carefully and found that it was true. The above said that when an emergency occurred, the imperial envoy was able to control the army... "What is this? You were asked to control your troops, but you did not lead your troops to fight. You are overpowering!"

Tan Xian laughed, "General Zhong, don't you understand yet? Wang Ning'an's patrol is nothing more than raising the enemy and having ulterior motives. Our family and General Gao came with the imperial edict. Your Majesty has already seen Wang Ning'an's conspiracy, so he asked us to lead troops to attack and take Lingzhou. If His Majesty had not nodded, how could the Secret Spies Department send the information here?"

Gao Zunyu also said, "The sage knows that you, Zhong's family is loyal and righteous, and specifically instructs you to rely on your strength to eliminate the treacherous and slanderous people. If it were not for the sage's instructions, how could we let General Zhong lead his troops here?"

The two of them sang together, and Zhong Gu was a little confused.

After all, he was just a general. He only fought and was not so clear about the affairs of the court.

The Battle of Hengshan was very good, but because of this, Wang Ning'an was at its peak, his prestige became higher and higher, and the water was full, and the moon was full, and the loss was lost. Could it be that Your Majesty really wanted to attack Mr. Wang?

Zhong Gu is so angry that he usually has counselors around him and two brothers can advise him. Now he has no one, so he can only rely on himself. But even if he wants to break the head, Zhong Gu cannot guess the situation in front of him!

Gao Zunyu said meaningfully: "General Zhong, Your Majesty may not want the will of Wang Xianggong, but he missed the opportunity to make the official family dissatisfied. We have Yu Zang Huama as the inner supporter and took down Lingzhou. It's just a walk. As long as you win, you will be the first general... At that time, Your Majesty will take the opportunity to remove Wang Ning'an's military power. It's reasonable, so don't stumble again!"

Zhong Gu's face looked ugly, "Two imperial envoys, I'm worried that Yu Zanghuama would not really surrender. If that were the case, the lives of these 70,000 brothers would be in danger!"

"Hahaha, General Zhong is not worried." Tan Xian patted his chest and said, "The secret spy department does nothing, and Yu Zang Huama will definitely surrender. General Zhong has no unique skills at his fingertips. Don't hesitate!"

"If you don't lose your head, you will burn the incense." Although Zhong Gu did not believe the words of these two people, they were both imperial envoys, and they also held the transfer order from the Political Affairs Hall and the official documents of the Secret Spies Department. The combination of several things was like a series of big locks, which made Zhong Gu dare not resist.

Gao Zunyu and Tan Xian didn't care what Zhong Gu thought. They were divided into classes, one stayed with Zhong Gu's side, and the other went to command the troops.

They accelerated their advance, allowing the soldiers to abandon their excess and carry only dry food, traveling around the clock.

In this way, the people walked for another three days, and Lingzhou City was finally in sight.

"The villain has been ordered by my master. He has prepared in the city. The city will be opened at the third update tonight to welcome the king's army!"

After taking the secret letter from the soldier, Gao Zunyu and Tan Xian both breathed a sigh of relief. Tan Xian generously took out a few golden beans and stuffed them to the soldier.

"Your master follows the heavens and responds to others, and the court will not treat him badly."

After discussion, Gao Zunyu mobilized 30,000 troops to take the lead, leaving Tan Xian and Zong Gu as the rear army. When the night general was in the dark, Gao Zunyu rushed to the dark Lingzhou City with his men.

On the top of the city, someone curled his lips, was very disappointed, and said to himself: "If you can't catch the phoenix, you have to catch the peacock... Who knew that it was really unlucky to catch a family bird!"
