(A large chapter of five thousand words is presented, please give me a full praise!)

"Gongsun, please inform us of the military information first." Li Jing cheered up.

Gongsun Lan, who was charming, had no smile on her face today, bowed and reported heavily: "Your Highness, everyone, according to the urgent report from Feiying in Yunzhou, tens of thousands of Hu people besieged Li Siyuan's troops to guard Niupi Pass on the sixth day of this month. The two sides fought a lot. Li Siyuan defeated the Hu people and beheaded more than 5,000 people. The Hu people were defeated. Li Siyuan took advantage of the situation to pursue and pursued them all the way to Baishuilu outside the border. On June 11, his troops were ambushed by tens of thousands of Khitan troops in Baishuilu.

The Shatu army was defeated, and the 30,000 Shatu army and 30,000 auxiliary soldiers who Li Siyuan went out of the frontier were almost wiped out, with at least more than 30,000 killed, with corpses piled up like mountains and blood flowing into rivers. Now the Khitan led more than 100,000 Hu people to move south, pointing directly to the Niupi Pass of Qingpodao. The general Yelu Sala under his command led the side troops out of Baidao, and detoured Zhenwu to attack the northwest of Yunzhou, and had already conquered Jingbian Army City and Wuzhou City. The Hu people's soldiers were very sharp and could not resist."

As soon as these words came out, the people in the camp's conference hall immediately became turbulent.

Cui Yunqing asked: "Didn't the Supervision Office find out that there were only 80,000 Hu people who went south, and there were only 10,000 soldiers. Yu is old and weak, just want to take advantage of the situation to rob? Why did Li Siyuan almost lose 60,000 troops at once? How many Hu people went south?"

Gongsun Lan lowered her head and said in a deep voice: "For this matter, I will first apologize to the King of Qin on behalf of the Supervision Department. This time the information is wrong, and the crime of dereliction of duty is inevitable. It is our Supervision Department that underestimated the strength and determination of the Khitans and did not find out in advance. The Khitans came here with a careful consideration and preparedness. They had done a lot of secret work before, which led to the failure to find out the strength and movements of the Hu people who went south. I am here. I officially resigned from the King of Qin and waited for the King of Qin to take action."

Li Jing looked at Gongsun Lan and felt a little angry. All the bureaus of the Supervision Department have clear responsibilities and their own tasks, and their performances have made Li Jing very satisfied. However, this time, the Supervision Department made a huge mistake. They did not even notice the movements of more than 100,000 Khitans, which caused not only Li Siyuan to be defeated, but also put Zhang Zimian's army in a dangerous situation. What made Li Jing even more angry was that the General Staff and the Political Affairs Hall finally made the decision to risk their troops to serve in the North based on the Information of the Supervision Department.

Now, the 200,000 Hu people came south, not 80,000 mobs. This huge error caused the Qin army to make a fatal danger in its entire decision. Now, Li Jing personally sent 50,000 troops into the enemy's trap, and made Yanjing and Hebei unprecedentedly empty. The entire four provinces of Rehe, Hebei, Beiping and Shanxi have only 50,000 troops.

Once this 200,000-strong Hu corps breaks through the Daibei front line, the newly established Shanxi Province may fall. Even the Rehe Province north of Yanshan may be lost. If Chengde Town and Weibo Town in Hebei take the opportunity to send troops, the situation in the entire Hebei will be turbulent. The central Hebei area is in crisis. It will inevitably involve the war situation in the Northeast.

If one moves the whole body, the mistake made by the Supervision Bureau this time will lead to extremely serious consequences.

But at this time, it is not the time to hold the responsibility accountable, but how to make remedies and change the current bad situation. He barely maintained his composure and said, "The Supervision Office is seriously dereliction of duty and the crime is unforgivable. But now it is not the time to hold the responsibility accountable. Let's record your responsibilities for the time being and allow you to make meritorious contributions. Gongsun, you should talk about the information you have now, and hope that your information is not wrong this time."

"Yes!" Gongsun Lan stood up, turned around and walked to the sand table in the hall.

"After the incident, the Supervision Department launched all its efforts and worked together. Now some information has been found out, and now we will report it to the King of Qin and you all. According to the news we have recently investigated, the Hu people who went south this time were not 80,000, but 200,000. Yu Yue Yelu Shilu, who was newly appointed as the general general of military affairs in the Khitan, was the marshal of the Southern Expedition, with Yelu Sala as the deputy commander, and Yelu Yangu as the vanguard, and Yelu Yangu as the vanguard, and many other tribes, including Xi, Tatar, Turk, Uighur, and other tribes inside and outside Yinshan. Among them, 20,000 elite Khitan cavalry, 40,000 auxiliary soldiers, and 20,000 soldiers from various tribes, 40,000 auxiliary soldiers, and 80,000 slaves and old and weak who followed the south."

When they heard about the 200,000 Hu army going south, there were 40,000 light cavalry and 80,000 auxiliary cavalry, and the people present changed their color again. Even if they were not counting the 80,000 auxiliary military service, the 40,000 combat troops alone were enough to be shocking. No wonder people like Li Siyuan would be defeated in one battle.

However, Li Jing was still a little confused. How could Li Siyuan, a general who was not an ordinary general, be able to chase the enemy so easily, and almost all the troops were gone?

"Li Siyuan was betrayed!" Gongsun Lan gave Li Jing the answer. After Li Siyuan retreated from Shuozhou to Yunzhou, his troops gathered 30,000, and he also had an auxiliary army, which temporarily recruited a group of young and strong troops to join the army. Finally, when he guarded Qing ramp, he had 30,000 combat soldiers and 50,000 auxiliary soldiers. After Li Siyuan was mutiny and besieged by his subordinates in Yanmen last time, he rectified his troops and horses, and many suspected officers were transferred and strictly monitored. He even reorganized the departments and sent his confidant officers of the Hengdu headquarters to various departments to serve as military supervisors and monitor the officers of various battalions.

His series of measures started to have a good effect, and he found many generals loyal to Li Keyong.

However, the final facts prove that Li Keyong's influence in the army was far beyond Li Siyuan's imagination. Many middle and upper-level officers were monitored by Li Siyuan, but a large number of middle and lower-level officers have always been loyal to Li Keyong. They were instructed by Li Keyong, and kept hiding and waiting for the opportunity.

This opportunity was when Li Siyuan fought with the Hu people. When the Hu people came to attack the key points, Li Siyuan fought and defeated the Hu people. Then a large number of soldiers began to appear in his subordinates who did not follow the military orders to withdraw their troops, but instead pursued the poor. Li Siyuan was forced to lead his troops to follow the pursuit, but as a result, the troops chased them farther and farther away, but the troops continued to recover. Until the troops were brought into the ambush circle of the Khitans, almost completely disappeared.

Only then did Li Jing finally understand why Li Keyong was so calm and stayed in the river. His move was indeed very powerful. Li Siyuan might be very good at leading troops to fight, but compared with Li Keyong, what he lacked was his prestige in the Shatuo army. Li Keyong could respond with one call, but Li Siyuan could not do this. In addition, Li Keyong colluded with the Khitans. They hid a real army, which made Li Jing and Li Siyuan miscalculate the situation on the battlefield, which resulted in this great defeat.

If Li Siyuan knew that there were 200,000 Hu people, even if the officers loyal to Li Keyong were deceived and pursued the soldiers, Li Siyuan would never have left Niupi Pass easily.

"Where is Li Siyuan now?" Li Jing asked, rubbing his temples.

"After Li Siyuan was defeated by Baishuilu, he disappeared. According to our speculation, Li Siyuan should still have about 10,000 troops in his hands, and these should be loyal to his subordinates. However, they were unable to return to Niupai Pass. Yelu Shilu had already set up an ambush on the way back. Li Siyuan had either been killed by Fu Quan's army or had turned to flee to another place. However, according to my speculation, with Li Siyuan's ability, it is unlikely that he would be annihilated so soon. Therefore, it is very likely that Li Siyuan was hiding from the pursuit of the Hu people in this range outside the Great Wall and south of Yinshan."

Jing Xiang and others also agreed with Gongsun Lan's speculation that Li Siyuan should not have been defeated so easily. However, Li Siyuan could not come back in a short time. Now the Hu people have crossed the Great Wall and entered the outer periphery of Yunzhou City.

"There are Niupi Pass outside Yunzhou, Yunzhong Guard and Baideng Mountain three barriers. In addition, there are Jingbian Army and Wuzhou City to the west, and the Qingsai Army and Tiancheng Army to the east. But now we know that the Jingbian Army and Wuzhou City to the west have been defeated by Yelu Sala, and the Jingbian Army and Tiancheng Army to the east are also unlikely to be guaranteed. Yelu Shilu's strategic layout is very clear, that is, the troops are divided into three groups, the central army directly attacks Yunzhou, and the left and right troops capture four cities outside Yunzhou, and finally surround Yunzhou on three sides to break through it. Then, the Zhang Zimian Army in Shuozhou surrounded and eaten. After taking down Shuozhou, they gathered the Shatuo Army in Yanmen to counterattack Weizhou, and then went north to attack the four states in Shanqian. The final target was still Jundu Pass and Yanjing."

Gai Yu pinched his beard and suddenly said, "The Khitans are siegeing Wei to save Zhao. During the war in the Northeast, they have drawn such a large army to go south. It is absolutely impossible to run to help Li Keyong clear the portal. They will never come to the Central Plains to fight the grass valley in the early stages of such a decisive battle. The Khitans are planning to siege Wei to save Zhao, and force us to draw troops from the Khitan grassland or the Bohai battlefield to help Hebei."

"The battlefield in the Northeast is crucial. The battle is imminent and the prelude to Feng Zhan has begun. We must not draw troops from the Northeast to return." Jing Xiang said.

Li Jing nodded, although the Qin army invested four legions in the Northeast battlefield, a total of 350,000 troops, but compared with the northern Rongdi coalition, it did not have much advantage. The two sides gathered millions of troops on the front thousands of miles, and there would never be any force for the troops to be transferred south. In the northern battlefield, one carrot and one pit, and the transfer of the army back at this time may cause other troops to be in a tight situation, or even collapse on the entire line.

The Khitans hoped that Li Jing would send troops back to help so that they would have more advantages in the battlefield of Northeast China.

Li Jing can't do this!

"How about drawing troops from Shandong to the north?" Li Liang suggested, "Draw troops from Jianghuai to Shandong, draw troops from Shandong to Hebei, and then draw troops from Hebei to Daibei to reinforce the battle."

"No, how many troops have to be mobilized? Besides, Jianghuai and Shandong must not only defend against Gao Pian in Huainan, but also against Huang Chao's army in Henan, and Wei Bo and Chengdezhen in Hebei. The troops have reached a very low level. How can we draw them again?" Li Zhen opposed that the military mobilization involved in several provinces and regions was too big. At this time, the war in the north was becoming more and more stable. If the mobilization was carried out, Gao Pian, Huang Chao, and Hebei vassal states also began to move abnormally, that would be a big trouble.

"The Hu barbarians are powerful, and our army cannot draw more troops to fight for Daibei at the moment. In my foolish opinion, it is better to let General Zhang Zimian retreat into Weizhou before the thieves are surrounded, concentrate his troops and horses, resist the city and defend against the Hu barbarians. At the critical moment, we can even retreat to Junduguan. In short, the key is to protect the situation in the Northeast. As long as the situation in the Northeast can achieve the final victory, we can then force our troops to regain the front of Daibei Mountain. Don't compete with the thieves for a while, focus on the distance!"

Li Zhen’s proposal is full of conservative, but also steady. If the front line is too long, the Qin army’s string collapses too tightly, and the risk will increase a lot.

Qin Fan still had many enemies, Shatuo, Chengde, Wei Bo, Huang Chao, Gao Pian...

If you don’t leave any spare force to fight on the whole line, then it may lead these enemies to take the opportunity to attack. At that time, it will really get out of control. Whenever you leave some spare force, the most correct thing is.

The northern army cannot be transferred back, and the southern army is not suitable for transfer back. There is no military force in Hebei. It seems that the Qin army has no other choice except to give up Daibei and withdraw its troops as soon as possible.

Just by withdrawing Zhang Zimian's army, it means that the Qin army's dispatch of troops was completely failed. Not only did it waste a lot of money and food, but it would also lose a single Li Siyuan in vain, and even Datong Town was lost again.

Li Jing was unwilling to accept it, and he knew very well that the current situation was afraid that he would really abandon Li Siyuan and withdraw Zhang Zimian. The Hu people would not give up. They would take advantage of the victory to march, attack Weizhou, Wuzhou, Xinzhou, Ruzhou, and Guizhou. They fought until Jundu Pass, and even Yanjing.

"Gui Guild Staff. How many soldiers and horses are there in Hebei now?" Li Jing asked with his head raised.

Jing Xiang was shocked, but he replied seriously: "Excluding Zhang Zimian's army, 50,000 troops, now all the soldiers in the four provinces of Rehe, Beiping, Hebei and Shanxi have a total of 50,000 troops."

There are 50,000 people, which seems to be quite a few, but they guard the thousands of miles from Shanhaiguan to the Yellow River. These tens of thousands of people guard the four provinces.

"How many united soldiers are there in Hebei and how many rural soldiers are there?" Li Jing continued to ask.

"The Ministry of War records show that Qin Fan now has a total of 200,000 Unity soldiers, 150,000 Township soldiers, and 80,000 Township soldiers and 70,000 Township soldiers. However, among the six armies that went to the expedition, among which the united soldiers and townsmen accounted for half and 200,000. Of these 200,000 people, half of those transferred from four provinces including Hebei accounted for half. At present, there are still 50,000 Unity soldiers and townsmen in the four provinces in the four provinces!"

There were 50,000 combat soldiers and 50,000 village soldiers. Even if Li Jing took them all away, there were only 100,000 people. Together with Zhang Zimian's 50,000 people, there were only 150,000 people, which was even less than the number of Hu people. Moreover, Li Jing could not take all these soldiers away.

The soldiers in the three passes of Mozhou and Hejian must not be transferred. They must guard against Chengde, Wei Bo, Shanhai Pass and Jun, and Lu Longsai's soldiers in the three passes cannot be transferred. These are the three gates of Yanjing, and there is no need to be missed. If you want to send troops, where can you still be transferred?

Li Jing thought about it and could be transferred to the Yanjing garrison troops and his personal guards. In addition, the martial arts lecture halls and military academy students could be transferred, senior students from the Scouts school could be transferred, and a group of marines could be transferred from the navy. Well, by the way, there is also a team of troops to be adjusted.

"Gui Staff Commander, the last time the Five Barbarians surrendered, what happened to reorganize the Five Barbarians? How many soldiers have been reorganized now?"

"When the King of Qin, the Five Barbarians came to the group to reach a total of one million people, including 200,000 troops from various tribes. After evacuation, 100,000 people have been selected, and plans to expand them into the original troops. Now some Hu soldiers are still under training."

When Li Jing heard that there were 200,000 tribal soldiers, his face moved. Although the new defeat of the five tribes was severely damaged, the so-called 200,000 soldiers were actually included in a large number of old and weak. After entering Qin, the old and weak had been eliminated and 100,000 young and strong were selected. Among them, 40,000 of the most elite were cavalry and 60,000 ordinary soldiers were infantry. After receiving a year of new training for the Qin army, they were dispersed and supplemented to the existing armies.

This army has received new training for the Qin army for less than half a year, but it is indeed a considerable military force. Originally, they would add troops from Northeast China, Hebei and Jianghuai in turn after half a year. Now, Li Jing couldn't help but have a new idea.

"From the Yanjing garrison troops, my king's guards, various martial arts halls, military academy students, and students over 14 years old in the Scouts, you can calculate it, can you get 50,000 people?"

Jing Xiang lowered his head and calculated it seriously, "When King Qin, it's almost the number. If only 10,000 people were left in Yanjing City, and all the cadets of military academy over the age of fourteen were gathered together, and then 10,000 troops and village soldiers were drawn, the accurate number should be about 50,000."

The Qin army has a large number of military academies at all levels, and implements a three-level professional military system, combat soldiers, united soldiers, and village soldiers. There are also academic soldiers, and they have extremely strong mobilization capabilities during wartime.

"Very good. Now you will gather these 50,000 people together and immediately reorganize them with the 100,000 trained soldiers of the Five Barbarians, and reorganize them into 30 reorganized troops, 12 cavalry units with 60,000 60,000 infantry units with 18 infantry units with 90,000. You will be limited to you to complete the reorganization within three days. After three days, I will personally lead these 150,000 troops out of the pass. Since the Khitan is aggressive, let's fight him to the end. This time, I will not only fight these 200,000 Hu people back to my hometown, but also take Dai Bei into his pocket." Li Jing shouted in a deep voice, with a decisive look on his face.

Cui Yunqing said in surprise: "Your Highness, please think twice. It is too dangerous to take such a desperate bet. Besides, the Hu people may not be able to fully trust this battle. Moreover, the army is reorganized before the war, so it is difficult to have a tacit understanding. Although such a large army has 150,000, it is no different from the mob, which is too risky."
Chapter completed!
