Chapter 908: The unexpected war of the Liao people

At this time, the Western Xia had reached its last moment. No matter who wins or loses, the Western Xia will no longer remain in this world, either annexed by the Song Dynasty or belong to the Liao Dynasty. This powerful dynasty that once occupied the northwest for a while is about to perish.

Since destruction is inevitable, we should surrender to the strong and get a better life. Otherwise, why surrender?

At this time, choosing the Song Dynasty or the Liao Dynasty is a hot topic. The people in Xingqing Prefecture talked about the most is this issue. In their opinion, the benefits obtained by submitting to the Song Dynasty are far higher than those of the Liao Dynasty.

Although the support of the Liao Dynasty had a certain degree of independence and did not need to move inward, the people of Xixia did not get any benefits, let alone the Liao people had to station troops in Xixia.

This is simply living under the blade of the Liao people. What if one day the Liao people turn them into slaves? The slaves of the Xixia people are the population plundered from the Western Regions. They know that slaves live in dire straits.

But now the people of Xixia have no right to choose and can only wait for the victory or defeat between the people of Song and Liao. The final strong men will determine their destiny and the direction of their future progress.

Almost all Dangxiang people were praying for the Song people to win because it was in their best interest, but the powerful force left by the Liao people to Xixia also made them doubt whether the Song people could win this battle.

This was the most exciting battle. The Emperors of the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Liao Dynasty were all in charge, as if the battle between the Song and Liao Dynasty had returned to the state of the Battle of Yanyun. However... the emperor of the Liao people was the young son of the Liao emperor, and the Emperor of the Song people was still Zhao Zhen.

The two sides were tense and a small friction would lead to the sudden start of the war. Because of this, both Song and Liao sides were trying their best to restrain themselves, and the emperor was also restraining the army. The envoys had already begun a confrontation, and the Song and Liao sent envoys to each other's army.

This was a demonstration, and it was also a communication and temptation. The number of the Song army was far greater than that of the Liao people. The number of the 200,000 troops was enough to sweep across the Western Xia, but the 100,000 cavalry of the Liao army was not for nothing.

However, the Song Dynasty was also at a disadvantage because of distrust of Xixia. Half of the 200,000 army was to be wary of the Xixia people. This means that the Song Dynasty could only take advantage of about 100,000 troops, and 100,000 to 100,000, the Liao Dynasty did not have a chance to win.

This is also the reason why Yelu Hongji constantly provoked Zhao Zhen. Such a young child will use provocation. Although the technique is a little immature and the purpose is too exposed, it is already very outstanding for a young man to have such skills.

Even Zhao Zhen was very angry when he saw Yelu Hongji's letter of the country at first sight, and finally he was amused by his absurd ideas... This shows that this child has become more and more like a qualified emperor under Xiao Tali's training.

Zhao Zhen led a large army to station outside Xingqing Prefecture for three days. During these three days, the Song army built a large number of fortifications facing Xingqing Prefecture. This act of digging three feet into the ground made Wuzang very angry. The gullies were densely covered with horses and turned into walls. This was obviously to prevent the Xixia from attacking the back of the Song Dynasty! If he was a dignified queen mother, would he be so worthless when he arrived at the Emperor of Song Dynasty?!

The soldiers on the city wall of Xingqing Prefecture made disdainful mockery, and the voices could be heard by Zhao Zhen. It was obvious that the people of Xixia were expressing their dissatisfaction. Cai Boyi looked at the official family worriedly, but he was surprised. Zhao Zhen carefully pulled out a long small box from his arms, opened it, and gently pushed away the exquisite velvet on it, and a long tube appeared in front of Cai Boyi's eyes.

As Zhao Zhen gently pulled the copper small tube suddenly grew longer. At this time, the official family held one end in front of him and pointed the other end at the city wall of Xingqing Mansion. Cai Boqi was very puzzled, but Zhao Zhen's next words surprised him even more.

"Well... I'm wearing the Queen Mother's Crown, there must be no black clouds hidden. No wonder the Xixia defenders are like this. I'm afraid this girl is angry."

Cai Boqi's voice sounded: "What is the appearance of the imperial concubine? She is so charming and extremely independent?"

"It's too far away to see clearly, but I look at her figure and it's... what are you talking about just now!"

Zhao Zhen smacked his lips slightly. It was really hard to see at such a long distance. This was the first time he saw no black clouds hidden on the land of Xixia. It was impossible to say that he was not curious. No one wanted the woman he married to look ugly. Even if it was given a gift, it was worth collecting. It was considered killing two birds with one stone!

However, in the shocking glance back then, Zhao Zhen vaguely remembered his eyes that were not hidden in black clouds. The bright eyes that looked like autumn water were under the eyebrows that looked like distant mountains, and were heart-wrenching...

Just as Zhao Zhen was still singing the bright eyes of autumn water, dong dong... the rumbling drum sounded, wuwu... the Liao people blew the heavy horns correspondingly, and the army on both sides began to slap at each other like a tide!

The Liao people learned their lessons and did not have the Liao emperor's banner among the cavalry in front of them. Obviously, they did not intend to let the emperor charge forward again to increase the momentum of the army. Yelu Zong really affected the Liao army's past tactics.

The same is true for the Song Dynasty. Now Zhao Zhen is more concerned about stability and will never joke about his life. Seizing in the central army is the best way. It can not only motivate the soldiers but also not have much risk. Isn’t that the best?

This war had been accumulated for too long, but when the Liao people saw the cavalry that was as beautiful as themselves rushed over. They were both familiar and unfamiliar in this war, familiar with cavalry combat, and unfamiliar with the Song people, who were actually all of them!

When they were competing with the Song army for the land of Yanyun, the Liao army fought more with the Song infantry. They knew how to restrain the Song army infantry, how to avoid the shooting of crossbows, how to break through the powerful Modao formation, and how to attack the stable infantry formation of the Song Dynasty.

But when they encountered the Song cavalry armed to the teeth, they were confused. This was a cavalry they had never encountered, especially the cavalry that was straddled with two-meter-long cavalry and madly added, which made the Liao Dynasty cavalry frightened.

The wooden spear of the Song Dynasty was painted with oily pigments, which looked like a golden spear under the sunlight. It was incredible in the eyes of the Liao people. The huge iron spear of two meters long, the Song people could actually clamp it under their armpits with one hand and hit it wildly? This is simply an incredible strange thing!

Crack... With the first sound of the cavalry, the sound of the cavalry breaking across the sky came, which gave people a strong shock. The cavalry formation of the Liao army was quickly separated by the Song Dynasty cavalry like a knife cutting tofu, and this is the name of steel.

This was completely beyond the expectations of the Liao army. In their predictions, the Song army must have sent infantry to charge, and at most cavalry was waiting to be surrounded on both wings. The Liao Dynasty only needed to break through the infantry of the Song people and break into the Song army's central army formation, which would completely destroy the Song people's formation, because the Song people's emperors would be the central army!

But it has been revealed that the Song army taught the Liao army a shocking lesson, and cavalry can also be divided into many types like infantry, each performing its own duties, and it is amazingly powerful.
