Chapter 404 Ma Kui Army (Part 2)

After arranging the affairs of the government affairs hall in the Political Consultative Hall, Wuzang Feixue changed into armor directly in the back hall. He did not even return to the harem and directly led dozens of guards to the camp outside the south gate of Xingqing Prefecture. This camp is the base of the Makui Army. Except for the 3,000 Makui Army, the rest were recruits who had just joined the army for less than a month. Before experiencing the war, they were always recruits.

Although this is a female barracks, it is also very cautious and is not bad compared to the male barracks. When Feixue came to the central army tent, he found that there were already people waiting here. The ones who did not hide Feixue were not others, but some concubines in Li Liangzuo's harem, of course not all. Those who came to the camp were naturally preparing to go to war with the army, including the imperial concubine Liang Luoyao, the fairy concubine Nuo Yilinghua, and the concubine De Yelu Yue; there was another person, that is Li Liangzuo's daughter, Li Xin, the Yinchuan princess of the Great Xia Empire.

"Why are you here?" After Wuzang Feixue entered the tent, he looked at the four people in military uniform and said.

Li Xin walked to Wuzang Feixue and said, "Auntie, we are naturally going to go to war with you!"

"No, there are dangers on the battlefield. If something happens to you, let me explain to Your Majesty, go back soon." Wuzang Feixue said very sternly.

"Sister, now that the country is in trouble, how can we sisters ignore our work? Besides, we have practiced martial arts and strengthened our bodies. We are more than enough to protect ourselves on the battlefield. With us, we are just a few of our helpers with our sister." Liang Luoyao said.

"That's right, this concubine was born in a general, she was familiar with military books, was well versed in military tactics, cavalry and shooting, and her martial arts skills were not bad." Nuoyi Linghua said.

"I'm a person who has experienced the battlefield and is experienced." Yelu Yue said.

"Auntie, my kung fu is not bad either. Even Brother Wu is difficult to defeat me. Just let us go!" Li Xin said coquettishly.

"Okay! Since that's the case, I will promise you, but you must remember that this is a military camp and not a harem. Everything will be done according to the rules of the army." Wuzang Feixue said sternly.

"Abide by the Queen's decree..."

"Since you have arrived in the army, don't be idle. This palace has appointed you four as generals, each of whom commands a battalion, that is, ten thousand soldiers and horses. In the end, this ten thousand army will be commanded by the palace. Without the orders of this palace, no one is allowed to act privately..."

Just as Wu Zang Feixue was arranging affairs for the four of them, Xiao Fuzi hurriedly walked in and said to Wu Zang Feixue: "Report to the Empress, the Third Prince, the Fourth Prince, the Fifth Prince, and the Sixth Prince were clamoring to see you outside the camp."

"Let them come in!"

"Son-member, mother, mother..." After the four of them came in, they saluted Xiang Weizang Feixue and the three imperial concubines.

"All up!"

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

"Tell me! What's the matter with this palace?"

"Report to the Queen Mother, we want to join the army." The third prince Li De stood up and said.

"You are still too young, I don't agree." Wuzang Feixue directly denied.

"But my mother, when Brother Wang and Brother Qin joined the army, we were one year older. Now that the country is in trouble, my son, as the prince, naturally, must be loyal to the country, which can be regarded as an example for the people of the world." Li De continued.

"The third brother is right. If the mother doesn't agree, the four of us will stay here and not leave." The sixth prince Li Qing sat on the ground and said as if he was playing a scoundrel.

Li Xin went up and grabbed Li Qing's ear and said, "Good boy, your wings are hard, you four are getting back to the palace quickly."

"Sister, today you pulled my brother's ears off, and I won't go back." Li Qing said back.

"Okay, stop making trouble; De'er, Ke'er, Hao'er, Qing'er, I understand your feelings, let's do it! As long as your mother agrees, I have no objection here." Wuzang Feixue said.

"Report to the mother, my son has already obtained the consent of his mother before coming." The fourth prince Li Ke said.

"So are my sons." said the fifth prince Li Hao.

Only Li De and Li Qing were left. Li De was the son of Nuoyi Linghua, and Li Qing was Yelu Yue's son. The two looked at their mother pitifully. The final result was that both agreed. After getting the agreement, the four were naturally very happy, but Feixue said to the four: "This is the female barracks, and you are not suitable to stay here, so do you do this! Where can you go to the King of Chu!"

"My son receives the order..." The four of them took the military order.

The eldest of these four princes of the Great Xia Empire who were about to enter the battlefield was only sixteen years old, and the youngest was only fourteen years old. As the sons of Li Liangzuo, they naturally would not be bad, because they had been receiving the cruel training of Li Liangzuo since they were young, and each of them was a civil and military talent. This war was a chance for them, and of course it was very likely that they would die on the battlefield at such a small age.

The next day, Feixue led 50,000 Makui Army and the 10,000 Imperial Guards who originally guarded Xingqing Prefecture and left Xingqing Prefecture and went south to Xiping Prefecture overnight. Now the Xia army has only 100,000 troops gathered in Xiping Prefecture, and there are 50,000 Makui Army. Except for the 10,000 Imperial Guards, the remaining 40,000 soldiers are all old and weak, and it is basically impossible to rely on these forces to defend Xiping Prefecture.

In the Xia army camp of Xiping Prefecture, there was no snow hidden in the central army's tent and was discussing military information with the generals.

Vergoning Ling said to the generals: "Everyone, I have just received a secret report that a vanguard unit of the Song army is less than a hundred miles away from Xiping Prefecture. It can arrive within three days according to the speed of the Song army's marching."

Wuzang Feixue said: "Now our army is at a disadvantage compared with the Song army in all aspects. I think there is only one way to defeat the Song army, strengthen the walls and clear the fields and attack its food routes. The Song army went deep into our hinterland. When the troops along the way evacuated, the palace ordered them to set fire to the city. Now there is no one inhabited from the southeast to the Xiping Prefecture area. If the Song army wants to avoid starving to death, they can only travel thousands of miles from Guanzhong to transfer grain to the front line;

In addition, our army lacks food and grass, and robbing the food and grass of the Song army can effectively alleviate the pressure on our army's food and grass; as for this vanguard, the Song army, our palace means to wipe out it completely, our army has lost consecutive battles and lost a large area of ​​land, and now it is in need of a victory to enhance the morale of our army."

"The Queen thought how our army should annihilate the enemy?" Liang Luoyao asked Mozang Feixue.

"Our army is mainly cavalry-oriented, but the target of fighting with the Song army during the day is too large, which can easily cause unnecessary losses. Therefore, it is best to attack at night. Now the Song army is in a moment of pride and complacent, and our army is losing streaks in succession, they feel that they would not have expected our army to dare to attack the camp."

"The Empress is right, and the old minister asks to go to this night attack." Vergung Ning ordered the order to Wuzang Feixue.

"The emperor's ambition is commendable, but this night attack requires a hundred miles to attack. I am worried that the emperor's body will not be able to stand it. Besides, Xiping Prefecture still needs the emperor's uncle to stabilize the overall situation!"

"Who is the Queen planning to rank the troops?"

Wuzang Feixue glanced at everyone and found that there was no suitable candidate in the entire tent. Old, young, and inexperienced, Wuzang Feixue finally fell on Xiao Fuzi. Although Xiao Fuzi was a eunuch, he had been following Li Liangzuo in battle for many years, and had led troops to fight in person, so he was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
