    After the Xixia envoy left, Chao Yong smiled and said, "What do you think?"

    As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Zhishen said: "Xixia has invaded our Han people for many years, how can we easily spare them."

    Yang Zhi also echoed: "Xixia has invaded the border for many years, and many people have been kidnapped and made slaves by them. Now that I see that Daliang is strong, I want to sue for peace. How can it be such a good thing?"

    Liu Qi also said with an indignant look: "In this invasion of Xixia, more than 50,000 Xijun and Prince Chuang died in the Zhenrong Army alone. The number of civilians who died is incalculable. How can we easily negotiate peace with Xixia."

    Chao Yong said nothing and looked at Xu Guanzhong with a smile.

    Xu Guanzhong looked at Chao Yong and had no choice but to step out and smile: "The general thought that the Xixia envoy came out of nowhere. Xixia people have always been greedy and fierce. Now that the Deshun Army and Huanqing Road still have 300,000 soldiers and horses, maybe in the country  We can still gather more soldiers and horses, but I, the Liang Dynasty, is full of 90,000 soldiers and horses, and I even killed Brother Chage, the king of Jin Dynasty in Xixia. If Li Qianshun sued for peace like this, I am afraid that he would not be able to secure his position as the leader of the country when he returned.  "

    Zhong Shidao nodded and said: "What General Xu said is that there are many tribes in Xixia. If Li Qianshun humiliates himself and sues for peace when he has three times more troops than me, I am afraid Xixia will fall apart after he returns."

    Zhu Wu also smiled and said: "The prince must have noticed it, so he wants Xixia to return all the Han people. Many craftsmen in Xixia are Han people. If all the Han people are returned, the national power of Xixia will be greatly reduced. Then I will not be able to do it.  Attacking, I am afraid that the grassland tribes will slowly decline. If Li Qianshun promised to return the Han people, it would be a lie. "

    Chao Yong nodded and said: "I just suspect that firearms are like divine thunder to uncivilized Fan people, and they are also powerful firearms to Xixia people. Although I, Daliang, are invincible, I have not yet been able to defeat them in the Central Plains."  To the point where people are afraid of it, let alone Xixia."

    Lu Zhishen said: "Then we will know whether Li Qianshun agrees or not whether it is a scam or not."

    Xu Guanzhong smiled and said: "I'm afraid Li Qianshun's army will arrive tonight."

    Lu Zhishen touched his bald head and said, "The Xixia people want to attack the camp?"

    Chao Yong nodded and said: "That's 80% true. Xixia paralyzed us by asking for peace, and then launched a night attack. They didn't even think that these tactics were leftover from our ancestors."

    Lu Zhishen smiled and said: "The Sa family asked for orders and led their troops to ambush outside the stronghold."

    Wu Song also said: "The final general is also willing to lead his troops to ambush outside the stronghold."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "Okay, then you two troops, one on the left and one on the right, will ambush outside the stronghold. As soon as the cannon in the middle of the stronghold is fired, you will cut off the Xixia people on the left and right."

    Zhu Wu nodded and said: "We can ambush all the soldiers and horses in the Xixia Dazhai and rob the Xixia Dazhai."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "Leave this task to Dong Ping and Lu Junyi. They should be in the Deshun Army now."

    Xu Guanzhong said: "If you want to capture Li Qianshun, I'm afraid you have to ambush all the soldiers and horses to the west. Li Qianshun probably won't come to rob the camp personally. Maybe if we ambush the troops here, he will flee."

    Yang Zhi immediately said: "General, I would like to go to the west to ambush you."

    Mu Hong also said: "The general is also willing to go."

    Li Ying, Li Congji, and Sun Li were naturally not willing to lag behind and captured the leader of the enemy country.  This kind of glory is what military generals pursue, and this opportunity is also very rare. Many military generals may not have such an opportunity in their lives.

    Even Zhongshi Dao is somewhat ready to speak, but he doesn't have many soldiers under his command, and he can't complete this task independently.  Although if he went with others, he would definitely be the leader, but it was a naked grab for credit.  He didn't even bother to do such a thing.

    Han Shizhong and Liu Qi also looked moved, but they also lacked troops and qualifications.

    Chao Yong looked at the five people and said with a smile: "I want to do this job. Let's go ahead and draw lots. Do you want to draw Lu Zhishen and Wu Song?"

    Lu Zhishen shook his head and said: "Since the Sa family said they would ambush outside the stronghold, then let's ambush outside the stronghold."

    Wu Song also said: "I won't arrest you either."

    When Chao Yong heard this, he took out five notes.  He wrote the character "Àî" on one of them, then crumpled it all into a ball of paper, shook it in his hand for a while, then spread his hands and said with a smile: "Come on, whoever catches the character "Àî", I wish him the best tonight."  Li Qianshun.¡±

    Yang Zhi and the five people looked at each other, and they all wanted to be the first to take action to avoid being captured by others, but they also felt that the probability of choosing one of the five was not high, and they also hoped that others would capture a few empty ones first.

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "Let's go in the order you just spoke. Yang Zhi is first, Mu Hong is second, Li Ying is third, Li Congji is fourth, and Sun Li is fifth."

    When the five of them saw the prince¡¯s order, they no longer hesitated.

    Yang Zhi was the first to go upCome, look at the five roughly crumpled paper balls, and I can only choose one at random, but when I open it, it is blank.

    "Not selected."

    Yang Zhi smiled helplessly and stepped aside.

    Mu Hong¡¯s second choice was not chosen either.

    Li Ying went up, but still not selected.

    "It shouldn't be difficult to choose one of the two, but after seeing the results of the three of you, I feel like I can't choose."

    Li Congji smiled and went up, picked up a paper ball and opened it, it was really a white note.

    Seeing this, Lu Zhishen laughed and said, "I thought Sun Li had no chance at all, but I didn't expect that he actually won without a fight."

    Chao Yong looked suspicious and said, "Is it possible that the note on which the words were written just now fell? General Sun opened the note and took a look."

    Sun Li naturally knew that Chao Yong was joking, so he stepped forward and opened the note, and naturally there was a letter "Li" on it.

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "Okay, now that the truth has been revealed, everyone can go prepare themselves."

    The night was as dark as ink, the sky was like the bottom of a pot, and the usually bright moon and twinkling stars were gone.

    ¡°It¡¯s a good day for a night attack when you can¡¯t see your fingers.¡±

    Li Qianshun patrolled the camp with his soldiers. The more than 30,000 soldiers and horses left behind were all neatly guarding the camp to prevent Daliang from attacking the camp.

    After nightfall, the 60,000-strong army quietly left the camp and headed for the Liang Kingdom camp.

    Cha Ge and Wei Ming Anhui were both important ministers of Li Qianshun in charge of Xixia, and they were also rare talents in the Xixia royal family. Both of them died at the hands of Liang Guo soldiers. How could Li Qianshun be willing to retreat.

    Although Wei Ming Anhui had previously promised to withdraw his troops once his raid failed, Xixia still had the advantage of troops. If they retreated, they would only fear that people's hearts would be upset. Without Cha Ge and Wei Ming Anhui, other tribes might be ready to take action. Instead of this, it would be better to  If he fights again, if he wins, he may be able to repel Liang Guo. If he loses, he will have a reason to retreat.

    Therefore, Li Qianshun came up with the strategy of paralyzing Liang Jun and making a sneak attack at night.  The soldiers and horses in the camp were all neatly dressed, nominally to guard against Liang's sneak attack. However, once the soldiers and horses who went to sneak attack the Liang camp failed, Li Qian was ready to withdraw his troops overnight.

    " Otherwise, if two consecutive sneak attacks fail, the morale of the army will inevitably be low, and another decisive battle with Liang Guo, who has firearms to help, will inevitably lead to a huge defeat.

    On the east side of the Xixia camp, a group of soldiers and horses in black clothes and black armor had lurked from the darkness to the outside of the camp. They were 20,000 troops led by Lu Junyi and Dong Ping, and 1,000 troops led by Yao Pingzhong.

    After Chao Yong's army defeated Chage's army, he sent someone to notify Lu Junyi and Dong Ping to come to Deshun's army.

    On the 21st, Lu Junyi and Dong Ping led their troops through Liupan Mountain and entered the Deshun Army stuck at the mountain pass at night.

    On the same day, Li Qianshun sent Weiming Anhui to sneak attack the Liang army, but did not attack the Deshun army, so he did not know that there were 20,000 more troops in the city.

    Although Liupan Mountain is steep, it is not difficult for flying birds. It is just that the mountain road is difficult to walk and it is inconvenient for large armies to pass through. People with strong skills can still travel unimpeded.  Chao Yong sent Jie Zhen and Jie Bao to Liupan Mountain to deliver a message to Lu Junyi and Dong Ping.

    The 30,000 soldiers and horses of Deshun Army were now less than 5,000. Half of them were soldiers and horses of Qinfeng Road under Zhongshi, and half of them were soldiers and horses of Xihe Road.

    After the invasion of Xixia, Yao Gu, the military envoy of Xihe Road, withdrew his troops to Qinfeng Road. However, because most of the troops were sent to the south of the Yangtze River to destroy Fangla, not many troops returned.

    Although Zhong Shizhong and Yao Gu were both military envoys, the Deshun Army was under the jurisdiction of Qin Feng Road, so the chief general was naturally Zhong Shizhong.

    When Zhongshi learned that Lu Junyi and Dong Ping were going out of the city to attack the camp, they had no idea. Although they felt that Xixia soldiers and horses had not attacked the city for two days, they might be prepared, but the prince ordered them to leave the city, and he could not stop them.  Although he was tempted to capture the leader of the Xixia Kingdom, it was equally important to defend the Deshun Army. However, he did not want to attack the camp and lost the Deshun Army in the end.

    None of the soldiers were tempted, but Yao Pingzhong, the young captain, was tempted.

    Yao Pingzhong is Yao Gu¡¯s nephew. He lost his father in his early years and was raised by Yao Gu.  The Yao family is the largest general in the northwest after the Zhong family, and Yao Pingzhong also learned good martial arts.

    When he was eighteen years old, he participated in the Battle of Zangdi River. The Xixia soldiers were unstoppable and many of them were beheaded.  Therefore, he was summoned by Tong Guan, but Yao Pingzhong looked down upon Tong Guan because he saw that Tong Guan was no more than an eunuch but had stolen the position of commander, so he was somewhat dismissive of Tong Guan.  Seeing Yao Pingzhong being so unruly, Tong Guan immediately erased many of Yao Pingzhong's military achievements, and the rewards from the court were naturally reduced.  However, the young heroes in Guanzhong all respected Yao Pingzhong and called him Little Taiwei.

    He also led his troops to participate in the battle to annihilate Fang La, beheading generals and capturing the city. Although Fang La was not captured, his achievements were among the best in the entire Western Army.  Originally Yao Pingzhong thought he could getWhen he went to the emperor to receive him, he didn't expect that the Song Dynasty suddenly perished.

    After rushing all the way back to the northwest, I found out that the Song Dynasty was destroyed by Liangshan grass bandits, and Lao Zhongjianggong actually called on the Western Army to submit to Daliang and fight against Xixia.

    Although Yao Pingzhong is unwilling to do so, it is not his turn to make the decision. What¡¯s more, the Xihe Road of the Yao family is gone and they only have more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, so they don¡¯t have much say.  In the end, Yao Gu naturally chose to advance and retreat together with General Zhong.

    It wasn't until Lu Junyi and Dong Ping led troops into Deshun's army two days ago, and at the same time killed Cha Ge, the prince of Daliang, and repulsed Cha Ge's troops, and the news that Li Qianshun was about to be surrounded soon came to the city, did Yao Pingzhong feel that Daliang had overthrown the Song Dynasty.  Not a fluke.

    When they heard that Lu Junyi and Dong Ping were going to attack Li Qianshun's camp, they immediately rushed to capture Li Qianshun.

    Yao Gu also thought that Li Qianshun might be captured, so he agreed to Yao Pingzhong's request.  Because of Yao Gu's face, Zhongshi agreed to allow Yao Pingzhong to lead a thousand soldiers and horses out of the city.
