Zhao Xingde's eyes flashed with regret, "If otherwise, then the Liao army attacked the south and the rear was cut off, and would inevitably lead troops back to Henan if we do not take advantage of the situation to pursue, would we be worthy of millions of unjust souls from all over the country?"

Lu Mingyu said, "The Left Army has sent seven hundred men to the north."

"The Right Army also sent six hundred-man teams, and there is still another one tonight." Luo Xianshi also said that his face was hesitant, and he wanted to speak, but stopped pursuing the Liao soldiers by land. Not only was it hard, but it was also extremely dangerous. Although Zhao Xingde was nominally deployed in the southeast camp, he actually only controlled the troops in Jiangbei. The real subordinates of the heart and soul only had more than 20,000 people to pursue the Liao soldiers. If the damage was too heavy, it would not be a good thing for Zhao Xingde, the generals of Zhao Xingde, Luo Xianshi had reported to Zhao Xingde twice in private. It would be better to defend Hanyang firmly. After the Liao soldiers retreated, they would slowly recover the lost territory. This would not only seize Jiangbei's territory, but also not damage his own strength, but Zhao Xingde did not accept these suggestions.

"Very good," Zhao Xingde nodded, "First contact the prefectures and counties in Jiangbei to support the army, and all departments should also step up the selection of elite troops and prepare for the long-distance pursuit of Liao soldiers." Immediately afterwards, Yang Zaixing, Du Chujiao and other generals also introduced the situation of the headquarters preparing for the Northern Expedition.

It has been several days since the Xia and Song coalition forces recovered Xiangyang. Zhao Xingde repeatedly requested a battle with the Liao army. More than 200,000 troops from the Song State gathered in Ezhou. If the troops could be coordinated and had a head-on battle with Yelu Dashi, there would be a great opportunity to defeat the Liao army. However, Chen Dong was hesitant. The Privy Council could not coordinate the army. Cao Di controlled more than 100,000 troops. After Jiangdong held troops and occupied Xiangyang, the movement was unknown. Heng Navy formulated a plan to pursue westward and go up the Han River to meet with the Zhen**. However, in the east, the land direction, An, Sui, Tang, Deng and other states, Han Shizhong had neither arranged nor planned to send pursuers. Under the ban, Zhao Xingde had to prepare to pursue the Liao army east alone.

Since the Liao Dynasty invaded the south, its rebellious actions also aroused the fierce resistance of the Song people. The people were exiled to the mountains and fields. The righteous men raised up more than 300,000 troops of the Liao Dynasty were sent from Bianliang and Yingchang, and marched more than a thousand miles. The prefectures and counties along the way provided supplies and food and grass for the Liao army. Although the Liao Dynasty stationed Khitan troops in important prefectures and counties, in order to facilitate the collection of food and grass, many officials and clerks of the Song Dynasty were still retained. In order to facilitate the collection of food and grass, many surrendered officials of the Song Dynasty were also with Xiangyang. Ezhou secretly connected with the Liao army outside Qu Hanyang. The Liao army outside Qu Hanyang City was known as 300,000. Zhao Xingde was still an absolute weak side, but it was difficult for the 300,000 Liao army to retreat intact. The troops of each unit must appear. If some time is delayed on the road, there is a shortage of food and grass, or

If the epidemic is plagued, even if there is no major battle, injuries and deaths will inevitably be inevitable. This is the purpose of Zhao Xingde's insistence on leading his troops to pursue the army. Even if the number of troops under his command is absolutely inferior, Zhao Xingde is unwilling to let the Liao army retreat comfortably. His pursuit will bite them like mosquitoes and flies, so that the Liao soldiers and horses will fall down in fatigue and hunger as much as possible. With the reversal of the battle, the northern Yi soldiers are ready to move Zhao Xingde is ready to prepare for the future. He constantly sends a few elite troops to the north to contact the surrendered officials of the northern prefectures and counties and the Yi soldiers in the mountains, so that they can prepare for cameras to move, support the Song army to go north to recover the lost territory, cooperate with the Yi soldiers in the northern prefectures and counties to build several strongholds first, as the eyes and resting places of the army.

Most of the Liao soldiers were cavalry, and most of the Song soldiers were infantry. In order to reduce the gap between the two legs and six legs, they abandoned all the burdens of the raids except selecting elite soldiers. It was late summer and the weather was not cold yet. The soldiers were all wearing single clothes in the southeast camp. All the iron armors in the southeast camp were left in Hanyang. They replaced 20,000 pairs of light paper armors taken out of the arsenal. They only hung iron pieces on the front chest and back. Each soldier carried seven-day dry food, a deer antler, muskets, ammunition, shovels, livestock and large chariots. In order to reduce the supply, they did not even carry the camping tents. The soldiers could only sleep in the wild at night.

In fact, because Hanyang's city is narrow and the barracks are insufficient. In addition, the weather is hot, the Baoyi army who entered Hanyang is also sleeping on both sides of Fenghuang Lane in the streets and alleys in the city. The soldiers with white legs are coming and going, which is particularly eye-catching. This is Zhao Xingde's Ya Barracks. Some soldiers in the city are also called white arms. Some soldiers in the city have just finished their legs and are still pedaling repeatedly. Seeing that they are not firmly beaten, Liu Wengu sat on the bluestone slab, wrapping the white linen strips from bottom to top to their knees one by one. "It is insulting, it is insulting." He grinned his teeth and complained, "Is this thing used by a real man? It is the same as a woman's foot binding cloth."

"Of course it's true," Ma Yuan hugged his hands in front of his chest and said with a smile, "Lu Meng of the Three Kingdoms found out that Sun Quan was using his own money and took out money to make red clothes for his soldiers. On the day of inspection, the display was very impressive. Sun Quan was very happy to see it, and his "action" was the thing of legs wrapping. It is also called "evil" in the Book of Songs. Xiaoya said that "Chimi Fu is in the thighs, and evil is under the bottom." He looked at Liu Wengu and joked, "Don't be sad, either,

After all, it was a dignified central army's 'white-wrapped army', and it was brilliant." As he said that, he stretched his legs forward, and the black linen strip was wrapped from his foot condyle to his knees, which was in harmony with the white linen that Liu Wengu was wrapping. In the battle of Shuzhou, Liu Wengu's position was broken by the Khitan cavalry, and he was one of the few people who survived. After he recovered from the injury, he was elected as the centurion of the Tooth Barracks. Ma Yuan was promoted to the fifth-rank governor for his military merits, and still commanded a battalion of musketeers.

Leg-bound is only popular among the Southeast water thieves, because the south is surrounded by grass and trees, and there are many poisonous insects. The bandits and river bandits can jump lightly and are less disturbed by poisonous insects. In order to facilitate the march, Lu Mingyu suggested that Zhao Xingde promote leg-bound throughout the army, Zhao Xingde happily agreed. Not only that, he also went in and out and went, and he hit his knees. Some officers and northerners thought the leg-bound were ugly and did not want to wrap their legs. Zhao Xingde set an example and had to draw a tiger. He also set the military rules that the leg-bound must be higher than the knees. Because black and dirty, the leg-bounds distributed by the battalions were made of black linen strips. Only the Ya Jiang Du Chujiao’s Central Army’s teeth bars were covered with white linen legs.

"You ran over, why didn't you make a special trip to make fun of me?" Liu Wengu said angrily

"Where, where?" Ma Yuanyin smiled, "I'm here to say goodbye."

"Say your goodbye?" Liu Wengu raised his head in surprise, "Where are you going?"

"North" Ma Yuan looked up and looked away without saying anything in Phoenix Alley. In the Ya Bian Battalion, Bai Budian raised his legs and kicked his feet in groups of three or three. In addition to preparing to go to the expedition, Zhao Xingde also ordered the battalions to take turns to train for a long distance. After several trainings, the soldiers got used to wearing legs. Sometimes they had to walk a hundred miles from morning to night. The distance of the march made Ma Yuan, who was familiar with military history books, shocked Ma Yuan, who was familiar with military books, was very surprised.

"Do you send out the battle in advance?" Liu Wengu put down the cloth strip in his hand, stood up, and looked at Ma Yuan's military affairs with a complicated expression. Not only could the Liao cavalry intercept the officials in the north interceptors, but the surrendered officials in the northern prefectures and counties may be treasonable. Many of the so-called "righteous soldiers" were the former giant bandits and bandits. After repeated uncertainty, they might also use the heads of the imperial army's soldiers to ask for rewards from Liao and Bianliang. "Since that's the case," Liu Wengu didn't know what to say, put one hand on Ma Yuan's shoulder, "Take care." He hesitated for a moment, "It would be great if this Northern Expedition could be recovered."

"If all my husbands can work together," Ma Yuan whispered in a low face, "It's a pity that I may not see Mr. Zhao's arrangements. This Northern Expedition will only kill more soldiers and horses of the Liao thieves, and not let them retreat calmly, and consume their vitality." He raised his head, and a smile appeared on his face. "Recover Bianliang, next time." He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Liu Wengu, "If there is any, please hand it over to my family." He looked slightly dark and patted Liu Wengu on the shoulder, and did not stay for more, turning around and leaving.

Liu Wengu watched Ma Yuan's back, put the letter in his arms, and murmured, "There will be a time later."

While Hanyang City was preparing for war, dozens of miles west, the atmosphere was particularly dull in the imperial account of the Liao emperor.

Yelu Dashi sat on a white tiger chair and looked down at the generals. Without saying a word, Xiao Olila lost Xiangyang. After retreating to Yingchang Prefecture, he immediately sent the memorial of apologizing to Xia Kingdom to send troops. The news that Xiangyang was recaptured by the Song and Xia coalition forces spread wildly. The morale of the army was in chaos these days. It was difficult for the troops to attack Hanyang. Now they have lost their spirits. The Jurchen Navy was dealing with the mission of the Northern Court Privy Council, Yelu Tiege, but he had no time to take care of these. He frowned all day long and frowned all day long to add up to the Khitans and Xi people in the Liao Kingdom.

More than two million, the North Court's military resident had only more than 700,000 men, and all parties had to divide their troops to guard. This time, the North Court mobilized as much as possible to mobilize people and horses. In addition to the Jurchens and Han troops, they gathered 300,000 troops, most of which were Khitans and Xi people. It doesn't matter whether the Jurchens were lost. If these more than 100,000 Khitan elites were lost, the Liao Kingdom would definitely be severely damaged. However, with the Han army, the Jurchens would be cut off. Otherwise, eight or nine out of ten, the imperial camp had just left, and the Song people were surrendered after the imperial camp.

What made Yelu Tie Ge worried was that since the fall of Xiangyang, the grain ships upstream of the Han River were cut off from Yingchang Prefecture. The grain transported by Dengzhou by land was far from keeping up with the army's 300,000 troops in Jinan. In addition to guarding the prefectures and counties, nearly 200,000 troops in the imperial camp, people ate horses and chewed them. They consumed tens of thousands of stones of food and grass every day, not only did they need food and grass, but also wanted food and grass in the army. Even the retreating army had to be hard to overcome. The food and grass in the front were cut off. If the food channels were delayed like this, Yelu Tie Ge was afraid that the army would be cut off. However, the morale of the army could not be released. Your Majesty did not mention the word "retreatment". No general dared to mention it, even Yelu Tie Ge, including Yelu Tie Ge, would dare not mention it.

The author finally recovered the Kavenka a few days ago. It seemed that he saw the soldiers of the Baoyi Army kicking their legs with white legs wrapped around their legs, but I just couldn't write it out. I'm really sorry that everyone will work hard to maintain stability in the future. I hope all book friends will continue to support this book, thank you for your support.
