Chapter 812

"Come here, pick up all these things carefully, put them in a wooden box and seal them, and then send them to Shangjing together with the memorials written by me before, and hand them over to His Majesty for the imperial examination."

"I hope Your Majesty can know that the Song Kingdom in the present is indeed different from the past."

Yelu and Luwu were excited again: "General Mo A, then prepare to adopt another plan. All the camps tried to dig out a passage to enter the city. See what methods the Song army had to deal with it."

"As for the order!" General Moa took the order respectfully and left. Seeing General Moa's departure, Yelu and Luwu couldn't help but feel sad.

Nearly 300,000 troops, facing a small city of Youzhou, were unable to do anything but rack their brains to think about these extremely slow methods. What does this mean? It only means that my confidence in whether I can capture Youzhou City in a short period of time is getting weaker and weaker.

As for Pochao Xinde, the deputy envoy of Privy Councilor who communicated and exchanged between the Xia army and the Liao army, he has now become a numb state of failure to return to the city every day.

The Song people have given more and more surprises, which have made Pochao Xinde increasingly worried about the fate of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Think about it, half a year ago, the powerful crossbows of Song State were also powerful enough, but the number was definitely far from being as many as today. In the past, there were only one or two divine arm crossbows in the seven or eight crossbow tools at most.

But now, the powerful crossbow with a soft steel crossbow arm has a piercing force and range that is not inferior to the divine arm crossbow. This is not surprising. What is surprising is that almost all Song crossbows are so easy to cut today?

The ordinary crossbow with insufficient range and piercing power in the past has disappeared without a trace, and the only thing left is this steel-armed Yuanyou crossbow.

In this way, the Liaoxia coalition forces suffered a lot in the confrontation of long-range weapons, which is why they can only attack the city at night or in the early morning.

Not only was he afraid of the Song army's stone throwing machine, but another very important reason was that at one hundred and fifty steps, the Song army's Yuanyou crossbow was definitely everyone's nightmare.

Only when you reach one hundred and fifty steps and reach the range of the bow and arrow can you have the capital to suppress the opponent's long-range firepower.

Otherwise, I could only watch the other party's yayu poured on his head and body, and I didn't even have a chance to resist. It was so frustrating.

After leaving the camp, Pochao Xinde and Xiao Wuna walked side by side in the brightly lit camp. To the west, the lights flashed and the sound of fighting sounded.

But the two of them only looked over there for a few glances, and then looked away without any gaze. Because they had seen too much such scenes and had already looked forward to too much, but what they were left to people in the end was only disappointment again and again.

"Youzhou is difficult to attack. I was mentally prepared before I was appointed, but I still didn't expect that the difficulty of attacking Youzhou was still far beyond my imagination." After Pochao Xinde withdrew his gaze, he sighed with a sigh.

"Yes, I didn't expect that after just a few decades of upsurge, the Song Kingdom has grown to this point. It really makes Xiao really feel like he is looking at him with admiration for three days after leaving."

"Before, Xiao heard that the Song State, which had been defeated by the Western Xia Hu Ben for decades and had lost its troops, suddenly became brave and almost brave before, and was strong and fierce. At that time, Xiao really thought it was a joke."

"But now I realize that it is not that Xixia has become weaker, but that Song is getting stronger and stronger."

"Sir, there is a saying that the officials don't know whether they should be said or not." Pochao Xinde looked at Xiao Wu'er and said.

Seeing Xiao Wuna's gestured gaze, Pochao Xinde decided to pluck up the courage to continue speaking. "Mr. Xiao, please tell Your Highness, please let me draw some troops back to the Longzhou area."

"What?" Xiao Wuna couldn't help but be stunned, turned his head, raised his eyebrows and said unhappily to Pochao Xinde. "Do you know whether you know that withdrawing troops at the last stage is a taboo in military strategists?"

"Sir, the lower officials know, but now, Longzhou, Yinzhou and the Zuoxiang Shenhua Army have all heard urgent reports, and a large number of Song troops have begun to advance towards them, and it is very likely that they will launch an attack in the short term."

"If these three states are lost, then our situation will be in danger."

Xiao Wuna caressed her long beard and her face gradually became gloomy. "Is the information true?"

"Although I don't know how many Song troops are, at least the Song army gathers in large quantities within the Song territory is absolutely not wrong." Pochao True promised with confidence.

"Does these three states have no self-protection ability?"

"In order to cooperate with the Liao Dynasty to help our Xia Kingdom capture these three states, we have gathered nearly 60,000 troops this time. Now, the defenders of the Yinxia states are only more than 10,000, and at least seven or eight thousand."

"If the Song army launches a large-scale attack and is not careful, there will be a big problem. Please report to Your Highness the difficulties of our country in the past to your superiors and give them a speech." Pochao Xinde begged to him with a bitter face.

"You have already said this, so Xiao will tell Your Highness for you. As for whether Your Highness is willing to make an offer, it depends on your Highness's intention. I am just a deputy envoy of the army, not the commander who commands the army."

"In addition, I don't think you have to worry so much. After all, the Song army did not have much defense when we marching this time. If the Song army really had the strength to attack the three states, we should have sent troops long ago."

"It's not just about posing a formation and stagnating. They did this just to do the act of surrounding Wei and saving Zhao, so you don't have to worry too much."

"After that being said, please ask Lord Xiao to explain the situation to Your Highness and make your Highness prepare in your heart." Pochao Xinde secretly relieved.

Just early this morning, I received an urgent report from the Dragon and Silver Land, and Pochao Xinde was shocked. But now after hearing Xiao Wuna's analysis, Pochao Xinde's heart also relaxed a lot.

Because what Xiao Wuna said makes sense, maybe it is the Song army deliberately let Yinxiazhou find their traces, hoping to use this to restrain the Liaoxia coalition forces attacking Youzhou.

However, these important officials of the Liao and Xia never thought that Wang Yang and Wushan had already inferred from the Liao army's movements that the Liao Kingdom's intention was to be in these three states.

Then he decided to use himself as bait, intending to use these three states as temptations, and then plan a larger chess game.
