Chapter 261: The country will be destroyed and will be evil.

Wang Xiaohu and Dou Jiande have a very good personal relationship. In order to know the temper of his old sister-in-law Cao, the more he is, the more he will not leave. When he decided to fight to the death, Wang Xiaohu called his own soldiers and wrote a letter in person: "Son, I am your father. When he saw this letter, he immediately rushed into the palace with his family soldiers, protected the queen and princess, and protected them to meet with your Uncle Liu."

Uncle Liu is Liu Heita.

Liu Heita and Dou Jiande had a life-long friendship. Wang Xiaohu gathered his soldiers and ordered: "Prepare for the sacrifice of the flag"

The long ox horns were blowing the horns, and it was sobbing and heroic. The bare-haired soldiers carried the livestock of the sacrifice flag to the incense table. Wang Xiaohu took the stage to sacrifice flags and assigned Yinxin Pass to guard the defense.

Dong Kangmai was full of pessimism about the decisive battle of this trip, especially Wang Xiaohu's 100,000 troops, which reached more than 8,000. If the troops were continued to be gathered, even if they could be gathered for 50,000 or 60,000 troops, they would not be able to fight again at that time. But now, Song Zhengben almost reported an urgent report every day, driving Wang Xiaohu crazy.

Today, he would scold all the eighteen generations of Song Zhengben's ancestors every day. The civil and military officials of the Xia Kingdom were originally not as complicated as those of the Tang Dynasty. Even if they were forced to tie up, they could tie Queen Cao to leave Mingzhou. Now Chen Ying's army is still three or four hundred miles away from Mingzhou. There is still time to retreat up the city, but they just ask for help like a soul.

In fact, the battle has not been fought yet. Wang Xiaohu believes that he will definitely lose.

After barely explaining the funeral, Wang Xiaohu led more than 8,000 live forces, who were trapped in the trap, and pursued Chen Ying along the river embankment of Yongji Canal.

However, Chen Ying arranged the formation of two wings flying together during the attack, with Luo Shixin and tens of thousands of hook and sickle lances guarding Chen Ying's central army.

After seven or eight tests, Wang Xiaohu's command did not touch the edge of Chen Ying's army. More than 8,000 troops were reimbursed by one-third. At this time, Wang Xiaohu's hair was messy and his eyes were as red as a rabbit. He was extremely embarrassed. He still kept his viciousness and shouted with his neck straight: "Attack, attack!"

In fact, at this time, Wang Xiaohu's troops did not seem to be attacking at all, but instead committed suicide like a moth throwing into a fire.

Facing the densely packed cavalry and the poorly equipped Wang Xiaohu's troops had no chance of winning.

Dong Kangmai, who originally brought Wang Xiaohu's support, couldn't stand it.

"Old Wang, wake up, you don't have the same fighting style as you do in war!" Dong Kangmai looked at Wang Xiaohu who was like a bloody man and shouted: "Look at how many soldiers you still have now, and their deaths have no meaning!"

"What do you think of?" Wang Xiaohu glared at Dong Kangmai and shouted: "What do you think of?"

"The cavalry under Chen Ying's command cannot charge in the city. Let's bypass Chen Ying's army, enter Mingzhou first, and fight street battles with Chen Ying!" Dong Kangmai said angrily: "I don't believe it anymore. Can Chen Ying still give wings to the cavalry?"

Dong Kangbu's words made Wang Xiaohu wake up. He felt that there was a very good way, and bravery and tragic were useless. The winner would never sympathize with the losers. If you defend Mingzhou, there would still be hope for the Xia Kingdom.

Chen Ying followed the retreat of the Xia army, Wang Xiaohu's troops, and Luo Shixin and Zhang Shigui asked for instructions on whether to pursue them?

Chen Ying said unexpectedly: "Get off!"

This made the generals very strange, but given Chen Yingzai's prestige, no one raised any questions even for this unusual order. However, Huai'an King Li Shentong asked strangely: "General Chen, this is the best opportunity to annihilate the Xia army in one fell swoop. Why do you give up this opportunity?"

"Fishing, you must have bait. If you throw the bait away, you won't be able to catch fish with an empty hook!" Chen Ying smiled and said, "Now Mingzhou is a fish hook, and Wang Xiaohu and Dong Kang buy the troops are bait. You can only catch big fish by putting the bait on the hook!"

In fact, Chen Ying's intention was very simple, that is, to adopt a very famous tactic in later generations - to surround the point and attack support.

This is actually the best point. Mingzhou is the capital of Xia State, and the Xia State's army must not be rescued. However, once the Xia army comes to rescue Mingzhou, it will fall into Chen Ying's trap.

In terms of field battles, whether it is the Modao Army or the Knights of Chen Ying's troops, they are all troops at the peak of the Cold Weapon Age, and field battles are invincible.

What's more, as early as Chen Ying's first advance to the north, the Beiwei Army had already left one step forward and sneaked into Mingzhou in batches. Once it was formed, it would be easy to cooperate with Liu Tonghe Xunxiang's troops to take down Mingzhou.

Just when Chen Ying's army was still more than 300 miles away in Mingzhou, the entire Mingzhou city was already undercurrent. Of course, the undercurrent was not just Mingzhou, but the entire Hebei.

Chen Huibing appeared to be ordinary, but his actions were not a small number of secret actions. The Tiger Yicong's detailed work began to promote the news of Dong Kangmai and Wang Xiaohu's defeat in Hebei. In fact, when Wang Xiaohu's troops did not contact Chen Ying's army, the army fell behind for as many as eight out of ten.

In the detailed publicity, it became a 100,000 army of Wang Xiaohu's troops, and more than 50,000 troops were beheaded and more than 30,000 were captured. Only the 50,000 troops of Wang Xiaohu's troops escaped by luck.

Then he also promoted the surrender of Liu Ya from Liyang, and Dong Kangmai, the general manager of Xiangzhou, abandoned the city and fled.

These messages are true or false.

In fact, Liu Ya did not surrender the city, but saw that the situation in Xia State was hopeless. Liu Ya was tied up by his personal guard and sent to Li Shiji's tent. Li Shiji's soldiers were not bloody and took back Li Yang.

When Xiangzhou was when Dong Kangmai led his troops to go north to serve the king, Xu Zhong under Dong Kangmai surrendered to Zhang Huaiwei.

...

Yingzhou is the old capital of Dou Jiande, and it should be the place where Dou Jiande has the strongest foundation in the hearts of the people. However, although Dou Jiande is very popular with the people, everything has advantages and disadvantages. The world is like a big cake. Dou Jiande lets the people eat more, while the aristocratic families eat less.

The chief manager of Yingzhou, Lu Shirui, is from the Fanyang Lu family, one of the five hopes of the seven sects and five hopes.

When he learned that Chen Ying's army was approaching the city of Mingzhou, he couldn't wait to send a secret letter to Chen Ying. In the secret letter, Lu Shirui claimed that he was in Cao's camp and was in Han. As long as Chen Ying's army arrived in Yingzhou, he would raise the city to change his flag.

When Chen Ying saw this letter, he had not had time to be glad, and he received Zhao Yuankai, the general manager of Maozhou (now Guantao, the city on the bank of the Yellow River), who also sent the letter of surrender to Chen Yingying.

Zhao Yuankai also came from a famous family and was descended from Zhao Gui, one of the eight generals of the Western Wei Dynasty. However, in terms of age, he was still considered Chen Ying's cousin. Zhao Gui's niece, General of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Zhao Du's sister of the three officials of Yitong, married Hou Mo Chen Chong as his wife. This Zhao Du is Zhao Yuankai's grandfather.

Chen Ying was speechless, not only Zhao Yuankai, Lu Shirui, but also the governor of Guanzhou (roughly in Dongguang County, Cangzhou) was preparing to change his flag. Seeing this scene, Chen Ying couldn't help but think that in the late Southern Song Dynasty, the prefectures surrendered and made decent resistance. The same was true in the late Ming Dynasty. When Japan invaded China, most of the landlords and gentry surrendered and sold their country to become traitors. Chen Ying sighed: "When a country is about to perish, there will be monsters!"

Li Shentong, the king of Huai'an, said: "At this time, the attack of diplomatic relations is better than the capture, and at this time, the use of slowness is better than the use of urgentness.

Chen Ying asked Li Shentong again: "What does it mean?"

"Surveying profit and avoiding harm is human instinct, and it is also the nature of a meat eater!" Li Shentong had already thought about the response in his heart, but he still pondered for a moment before saying: "According to the current trend of the world, there are many things that we can actually complete through negotiations. Now, the general manager of Yingzhou, Zhao Yuankai, Maozhou, and Lei De, the governor of Guanzhou, are just throwing stones to ask for directions. This is a show of kindness, but most people are still watching. They have to see how the general dealt with these surrendered ministers. Once the handling is done properly, the situation will change! Not only are the prefectures and counties in Hebei, which are close to us, responding immediately, but there are generals from Shandong and Zhongzhou who submit their letters to the letters, but directly expressing their willingness to surrender."
