The source of the soldiers of the Shengjun came from the prisoners of the Song army, so the number of people in this army has been that since Tong Guan took charge of the northwest military, the Xia army has repeatedly failed in Hengshan and Tiandu Mountain. After the defeat of the first and the first and second battles, of course there were no prisoners. However, in the battle of Shuofang, Richard Brother wiped out Liu Fa's 100,000 troops, causing the number of people in the captured Shengjun to soar several times in one day, and the total strength exceeded 100,000.

The battle in Shuofang was only six years ago, and most of the Song army captured the life army had not given up their hope of returning to their homeland. Therefore, once this army arrived at the decisive battlefield and faced the Song army head-on, no one could predict what would happen.

"In the battle of Shuofang, Richard defeated the strong with the weak and killed Liu Fa. The captives of the Song army were very afraid of him. If Richard continued to command this army, his power would be very strong. Unfortunately, Li Ganshun no longer trusted Richard and transferred him to Hexi at this critical moment, which greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of the Bishen Army." Zhao Wenya said, "Now the commander of the Bishen Army is Li Dingchuan. This man is the royal prince of the Bishen Army, with a very old qualification, and has been fighting for military power with Richard for a long time, and the relationship has been very tense. After Richard was driven out of the capital, he was led by him. In a short period of time, he drove all the trusted men of Richard out of the Bishen Army and replaced almost half of the officers at all levels. This blow to the Bishen Army's overall strength."

Li Hu was secretly happy. If I fought against the Captaining Army with the main force and defeated the Captaining Army, I would have won this battle. But the question is, is Zhao Wenya's words credible? If the facts are different from what Zhao Wenya reveals, how will the Tiger Lie Army deal with it?

Fan Zhichang asked in detail about the financial situation of Xingqing Prefecture and knew that the people of Xixia had reached an unsustainable point. "In your estimate, how long can Xingqing Prefecture last?"

"From the national treasury, it will last until this winter." Zhao Wenya said, "The Lingxia area is harvesting in autumn at this moment, but because of frequent wars this year, spring plowing has been delayed and the harvest is limited, which cannot effectively alleviate the financial crisis. However..." Zhao Wenya paused for a moment, looked at Li Hu and Fan Zhichang, and said solemnly, "We don't know how much power the Xixia people will burst out at the moment of national survival. If the Han and Fan soldiers and civilians work together to guard Kyoto at all costs, then the Xixia people may be able to last longer."

Li Hu nodded slightly. Zhao Wenya said this well. The people of the Western Xia and Han dynasties have lived in Helan Mountain for generations, which is closely linked to the fate of the Li royal family. At this moment, foreign enemies invaded and the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed. In order to protect their homes, the military and civilians of the Western Xia will undoubtedly join hands to fight. A situation like the Great Liao Dynasty that fell and pushed the ground may not repeat itself in Helan Mountain.

"Are you willing to stay here?" Li Hu asked. He hoped that Zhao Wenya would stay and that with such a person who is familiar with the secrets of Xingqing Mansion to assist him, the chances of winning this battle will be greatly increased.

Zhao Wenya refused. His family and relatives were all in Kyoto, so he could not ignore them. "If the Tiger King can defeat the Xia army and surround Xingqing Mansion, I can serve in the city and wait for an opportunity to help." Zhao Wenya said.

Li Hu shook his head, "I can't guarantee it. As you said, we don't know how much power the Xixia people will burst out at the moment of life and death. If they defended the city and made Xingqing Prefecture strong, we might not be able to conquer the city. Therefore, for the sake of stability, it's better to stay here."

Zhao Wenya considered a good opportunity and said goodbye. He was different from Fan Zhichang. He lived in Xixia for decades with his family. He could not abandon his relatives.

Li Hu urgently summoned the commanders of each army to discuss the decisive battle plan.

Fan Zhichang detailed the current situation of Xingqing Prefecture and the deployment of the Xia army. Fan Zhichang himself came from Xingqing Prefecture. The commanders of the various army thought he had some secret ways to get the secret. So no one suspected the envoy of Xia State.

"According to the latest news, the Song army has gathered in Linyan and Jingyuan. If nothing unexpected happens, the Song army will definitely launch an attack around October." Li Hu personally explained the situation to everyone. "Xingqing Mansion has realized that if they don't hurry up and fight, they will fall into the dilemma of fighting on both sides. Although we use peace talks to delay the decisive battle time, this plan obviously cannot last long. The Xia army will launch an attack soon."

"At present, the main force of the Xia army is advancing towards the Camel River." Li Hu pointed to the map. "Li Renzhong and Renduobaoguo led a 200,000 army to approach Hongjian. There are still thirty miles away from the Camel River. The decisive battle situation is already in place. The war is about to break out."

The military commanders were very excited when they heard this. They had been moving westward for almost three months since they were almost three months old. Apart from fighting a small battle in the Golden Valley, they had not yet contacted the Xia army. The long-awaited decisive battle finally began.

"The main force of the Xia army is composed of 100,000 Capturing Army, 50,000 Helan Mountain Army and 50,000 Lingzhou Army." Li Hu continued, "There are 30,000 to 40,000 people in the Right Xiang Army, but they are all concentrated in the Keyi Gate and do not threaten the main battlefield. Xingqing Prefecture has 30,000 garrison troops. They want to guard the capital and will not enter the main battlefield. The only thing that poses a threat to us is the Left Xiang Army. The Left Xiang Army has more than 100,000 troops, and is distributed in the six military supervisors on the southern line. When the Song army has not yet launched an attack, they can quickly go north to support.

Because I

The specific attack time of the Song army cannot be determined, so we must fight quickly and win the initiative on the battlefield."

Li Hu reached out and paddled the Camel River on the map, "We put the battlefield of the decisive battle on the Camel River.

”

"The army divided the four armies at the left and right center."

"The left army was commanded by Gao Baolong, and was under the jurisdiction of the Bohai Army and the Yisheng Army. The left army was deployed in Shachuan, a middle reaches of the Luotuo River, to attack the flanks of the Xia army."

"The Right Army was commanded by Yelu Mage, and it was under the jurisdiction of 20,000 Khitan Army and Jinglei Army. The Right Army was deployed in the Hongya area in the lower reaches of the Luotuo River to attack the flanks of the Xia army."

"The central army is commanded by the Mao army, with the second, fifth, sixth, seventh and thirty thousand Khitan troops under the command of the Huoke Army. The central army is deployed on the south bank of the Camel Peak in the Tuo River to face the Xia army head-on."

"The rear army is commanded by Dong Xiaochou, and is under the command of six generals of the resentful army and 20,000 crossbowmen of the grain shooting army. The rear army is deployed on the north bank of the Luotuo River to support the left, center and right armies at any time."

"I took the Tiger Guards to serve the troops behind the Central Army and supported them from all sides."

When Li Hu said this, he looked up at Hong Yun, "From tomorrow morning, we will assemble the grain shooting army to assume twenty floating bridges on the Camel River so that each army can travel between the two sides of the strait."

Hong Yun bowed and accepted the order, "General General, once the decisive battle begins, will the Keyi Sect also launch a feint attack?"

"Of course, the bigger the momentum, the better. Be sure to restrain the Right-Entertain Army on the west bank of the Yellow River." Li Hu said, "The feint attack on the Yimen Sect is the responsibility of your deputy commander Hu Litao. You command the Food Shooting Army on the main battlefield to do your best to help the army in a decisive battle."

Then, Li Hu talked about the main force of the Xia army to capture the life army and analyzed the various situations of the capture the life army in detail.

"The key to whether this battle can be won is to defeat the Capturing Army." Li Hu said, "I have placed 60,000 horse and infantry troops on the front battlefield, just to kill one blow and never give the Xixia people any chance."

Li Hu's deployment has attracted doubts.

On the front battlefield, the three armies on the left, middle and right have no superior forces, which is obviously not conducive to the decisive battle. According to common sense, the party with fewer troops must form superior forces on a local battlefield to give the enemy a fatal blow, but Li Hu did the opposite and fought with inferior forces on all three battlefields, which is not a winning strategy at all.

"General General, if the Xia army breaks through the two wings and the central army loses support, our army will definitely be defeated." Yelu Mage couldn't help it first and asked bluntly, "What is the purpose of the General General General General's formation of a sure defeat?"

"The purpose is to defeat the Capitulation Army." Li Hu smiled, "As long as I defeat the Capitulation Army, I will win this battle."

"The Chief General wants to deceive Dangxiangren?"

"Can you say that." Li Hu hesitated for a moment, as if he didn't want to explain in detail, "We want to gather superior forces to fight to the decisive battle, and so do Dangxiang people. However, when they didn't find out the position of our main force, they would not throw all the troops into the battlefield. Therefore, we must think of a way to make Dangxiang people mistakenly think that they are sure to win, and then take advantage of the situation when they are unprepared and give them a fatal blow."

Yelu Ma Ge wanted to ask again, and Yelu Yaris, who was sitting next to him, stabbed him gently and signaled him not to say anything more. Yelu Ma Ge looked at the army commanders around him, and no one questioned Li Hu like him, and many people didn't even have any doubts. Yelu Ma Ge thought that he had fought with Li Hu several times and never won the victory. On this occasion, he was indeed inappropriate to question Li Hu, so he closed his mouth.

"Each army immediately entered the battle position." Li Hu stood up, pointed at Yelu Mage and Gao Baolong and said, "The battlefield of this battle is very large, and it is more than 40 miles along the river, so you can find a suitable opportunity to attack first."

"If the Dangxiang people attacked the two wings with their main force and we were unable to support them, could we retreat across the Camel River?" Yelu Mage hesitated for a long time and couldn't help asking again.

"Without my order, it is absolutely not allowed to retreat across the Camel River." Li Hu said sternly, "Whether the two wings can persist is directly related to the security of the Central Army. Even if you are severely damaged, you must grit your teeth and persevere."

Yelu Ma Ge looked at Li Hu and was secretly shocked. There were only so many Khitan troops. What should I do if I lost more than half of the losses? But Li Hu opened his mouth and transferred 30,000 Khitan troops to the central army. He could only pray for God's blessing.

Dong Xiaochou stayed. Yelu Mage's doubts about the deployment of the final battle made him very worried. If the Khitan army had unfavorable attacks on the right wing, it would have affected the entire battle situation.

"In my opinion, transfer Abaddon's Tiger Lie 2nd Army to the right wing." Dong Xiaohou suggested, "Let Yelu Ma Ge be in the central army and be with you, it will be more conducive to the decisive battle."

Li Hu shook his hand, "This battle must separate the Khitan army, otherwise something will be more likely to happen."

"Don't you believe in Yelu Ma Ge?"
