Chapter 619 Let's slap the butt
Chapter 619
It is enough to see why Li Ganshun did not dare to kill the Liang clan, but instead kept trying to fool Liang Yibi back to Xingqing Mansion. It was because Li Ganshun woke up after the initial coquettish operation of taking power. If he was so willful to find trouble for the Liang clan, he might get rid of it.
Daxia, which had lost tens of thousands of elite troops, could no longer withstand another internal friction. This is why Li Ganshun sent several envoys to the capital, but still could not let Liang Yibi be willing to enter the capital alone.
He was helpless, so he agreed to Sa Chen's plan and sent him to Yanzhou. Then he ordered the mission to cooperate and even took out Liang Yibu's most beloved son Liang Rui as a smoke bomb.
Unfortunately, everything was miscarried because of Liang Yi's early launch. Well... the good advice I offered had failed, and Yanzhou was actually lost because of himself.
Sa Chen slowly tapped the table with his fingers and said in detail. "It is absolutely not feasible to stick to the waiting for help. Now our Daxia soldiers have suffered heavy losses. Under such circumstances, even if Your Majesty is willing, he will not have any extra soldiers to be sent here."
"However, the most important thing we now must first send back the news that Liang Yibi's rebellious intention has been revealed, and he conspired with the Song army to strangle our Daxia soldiers, seize our Yanzhou, and to kill our army, and return to Xingqing Prefecture. What do you think?"
After being connected by Sa Chen, everything changed suddenly, or in other words, the responsibility of their army was minimized, and all the sins were pushed to Liang Yipeng, the thief who had already betrayed Daxia.
Fei Tingdarong couldn't help but look at Sa Chen deeply, but in the end he did not object, but nodded slightly. "General Sa's words are reasonable, and we should indeed report to Your Majesty as soon as possible."
With the approval of Fei Tingdarong, the highly respected veteran driver, the other generals no longer say much. Anyway, no one is willing to take more responsibility. It would be good to take less responsibility if they cannot shift the responsibility completely.
"Now, the camp we are based is really broken. Besides, our army is so numerous, but our supplies can only last for seven to eight days. Therefore, it is definitely impossible to stay where we are. Sa has two ways for the generals to discuss..."
Sa Chen's first opinion was to leave more than 10,000 wounded soldiers to this camp, leaving five thousand troops behind, so that they could continue to fight against Liang Yibi's rebels in Hongzhou City.
The remaining army immediately returned to Yanzhou, taking advantage of the fact that the Song army had just captured Yanzhou, and took advantage of the unstable opportunity to regain Yanzhou City.
However, this idea was too risky. First of all, leaving behind the 10,000 wounded soldiers and 5,000 horses was completely the rhythm of delivering vegetables to Liang Yi's rebels, and it could not effectively stop Liang Yi's rebels.
It would take at least more than a day to rush back to Yanzhou. By that time, there would be still remaining soldiers in Yanzhou City to continue to resist. This is a question.
Another big question is, after Song Ting seized Yanzhou, would he let Xixia retake it back, and would definitely increase troops to help immediately.
At that time, the army returning to Yanzhou would be very likely to be disappointed and would not have any effect at all.
Therefore, Sa Chen's idea was quickly refuted by many generals present and rejected the proposal.
Sa Chen came up with a second solution, that is, the army carried the wounded and slowly headed north. Over twenty miles along Wuding Hebei, there was an ancient city of Wuyan. Although it is now occupied by Liang Yibu, first of all, it was originally an abandoned ancient city, and Liang Yibu sent few troops.
Moreover, it is only twenty miles away. Even if the wounded are dragged away, they can be dragged to the ancient city of Wuyan in one day.
With current strength, it would not be too big a problem to occupy the ancient city of Wuyan. Although the ancient city of Wuyan is an ancient city that has been abandoned for many years, after repeated renovations, although it is not as good as a strong city like Hongzhou City, it is definitely a hundred times better than the camp where the walls are pushed down.
But there is a big problem that the Wuyan Ancient City has less than 2,000 troops. In other words, even if the army conquers the Wuyan Ancient City, it is unlikely that it will be able to obtain much supply.
However, the Wuyan Ancient City is backed by the Wuding River. As long as it occupies the Wuyan Ancient City, with the ancient city as a support, it can not only hold on to wait for assistance, but also rafts across the river, and then go straight to Longzhou, which is still under the control of Western Xia.
"And when we were preparing to retreat, we would inform the governor of Longzhou in advance and ask them to send troops to respond. In this way, even if the old thief Liang Yibi and the Song army join forces to attack, with the ancient Wuyan City, we can be firm and the retreat path of Wudinghe, we can say that we are already invincible. Do you agree?"
Fei Tingdarong stroked his long beard and stood in front of the huge map with his generals, listening to the squids of the squid and starry-like description of his plan.
"This idea is not bad. When I was the commander of the Xiangyou Army Command in the past, I crossed the Wuding River through the Wuyan Ancient City. Although the Wuyan Ancient City is really ruined, our tens of thousands of soldiers can be settled." Fei Tingdarong, the old driver, nodded, and felt that this method was probably safe now.
"If all the generals have no objection, then how can we implement this policy?" After hearing Fei Tingdarong say this, Sa Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and glanced at the generals present.

"Sa Chen still didn't make any noise?" Standing at the head of Hongzhou City and looking at the camp five miles away from Hongzhou City, Liang Yifeng's eyes flashed in his eyes.
It was already late at night, but the swaying fires of the broken military camp and the garrison reconnaissance cavalry that appeared at the city of Hongzhou from time to time, all showed that Sa Chen was still vigilant enough to the rebels in the direction of Hongzhou.
"Well, since the 10,000 reinforcements were sent, Sa Chen still had no movement at all. He neither attacked nor retreated, which really made the officials unable to understand." Huwen nodded, and said with a sleepy look on his face. It was already midnight.
"Does he want to hold on to the rescue? But where is his reinforcements? Daxia, oh no, although Xixia is called 500,000 troops, no one of us knows that the war-capable soldiers of Xixia have now been lost more than half, and even the garrison troops have been sent out. Can he still expect Li Qianshun to dispatch tens of thousands of troops to him?"
Liang Yibu stroked his long beard and narrowed his eyes. After thinking about it, he turned his head to ask another general. "What's going on in Shilijing?"
