Liu Guangshi said happily: "I am a humble minister, Guangshi, thank you for your kindness."

Liu Yanqing frowned, worried about whether his beloved son Liu Guangshi could shoulder this important task.

Liu Yanqing, who had led troops and guarded the border in the northwest for many years, knew very well that the Xixia army's combat effectiveness was very strong, but the Xia army that stayed in Xiping Mansion, Xijing, where Longxing was located in the Xia Kingdom, should have even greater combat effectiveness.

Liu Yanqing secretly thought in his heart: "Don't look at the 'siege the city must be fortress' plan formulated by Zhao Guan's family, it's brilliant!

But how will it be implemented in detail?

Even if the enemy army fell into Zhao Guan's "siege the city" plan and the defenders in Xijing City could not withstand the fierce frontal attack of several Song armies, then the main force of the Xia army would flee north from the city and be responsible for ambushing the fleeing enemy armies.

That’s as heavy as a thousand pieces!

My son Yanqing has never led an army on his own, so is my son Yanqing qualified for such an important task?"

Zhao Ji seemed to see Liu Yanqing's little thoughts and said to him:

"Old General Liu, you and Liu Guangshi, together with your 20,000 troops, are moving according to plan, preparing to ambush the enemies who are fleeing north from the city from Xiping Mansion."

When Liu Yanqing heard the edict, he bowed gratefully and said:

"The humble minister Yanqing accepted the decree and thanked the Lord for his grace. Long live my emperor..."

Liu Guangshi pursed his lips, slightly dissatisfied.

He felt that his father was involved, and the father and son led the troops together to ambush the enemy. Even if the ambush was successful, it would not show Liu Guangshi's ability!

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhao Ji added: "As a precaution, I should send another thousand cavalry horses as a mobile division to set up an ambush behind Liu Yanqing's ambush army to prevent the northward retreat.

An important general in the enemy's army has become a big fish that slipped through the net."

After Liu Guangshi heard the holy words, he thought to himself: "My father and I led 20,000 elite soldiers and horses to set up an ambush along the way. The enemy troops that fled to the north will become the prey of my father and son's ambush. How can we let them escape again?"

"

However, Liu Guangshi kept in mind his father's teachings: discuss matters in front of officials and in tents, listen more and speak less, obey the holy words carefully, and do not resist orders...

Therefore, although Liu Guangshi believed that the Zhao Guan family's move was unnecessary, he did not dare to say anything against the holy will.

Zhao Ji continued: "Pengju, listen to the order!"

"Your Majesty, please listen to your orders."

Zhao Jidao: "I order you to lead a thousand cavalry and horses as a mobile division to ambush the enemy's generals who have slipped through the net a second time."

"I accept the order and will never let down the holy hope!" Yue Fei obeyed the order and thanked him.

Zhao Ji nodded, because he sent Yue Fei to perform this "leak-picking" task to reuse and protect him.

Now, Yue Fei is still very young in comparison, and he cannot command tens of thousands of troops to attack a city like the commanders of the various Northwest armies. This kind of "picking up leaks" task is very suitable for him.

If Yue Fei really picks up the leak, it will be another great achievement, so that when I continue to reuse and promote him, he will not be criticized by others; if he cannot pick up the leak, it is not a big deal, at least he will be protected from the enemy during the siege.

Danger.

Next, Zhao Ji discussed with the generals the attack on Xijing City of Xixia. He also reminded the generals that they would send out multiple rounds of scouting horses every day to see if there were reinforcements from Xixia to rescue the besieged Xijing City.

The generals reported one after another that the many scouting horses sent by their various ministries and the returned military inquiries were all because the Xixia Iron Kites reinforcements were defeated by the Song army outside Xijing City. The Xixia army has no signs of coming to relieve the siege of Xijing for the time being...

On the contrary, several city passes hundreds of miles away from here have increased their troops, and they have put on a show of guarding the important passage northward to the capital of Xixia to prevent the Song army from attacking them.

The capital of Xixia.

Zhao Ji listened to the report and analyzed: "I also predict that the enemy army will not dare to lead his troops to rescue their siege of Xijing like Brother Richard because of the previous disastrous defeat. However, dear friends, you still have to improve

Be vigilant and be sure to strengthen your defenses to prevent enemies coming to help from sneaking up on our army..."

All the generals received the decree one after another, saying that they would abide by the holy precepts. When leading their troops to besiege the enemy city, they would send out multiple rounds of scouting horses every day, guard the camp, and be ready for a sneak attack by the enemy at all times...

The officials and generals of the Song Dynasty have been discussing matters in the Chinese army's tent for an hour.

Zhao Ji made a detailed military plan for a general attack on Xijing City by referring to the suggestions of the generals.

A few years ago, Zhongshi Dao, Zhongshi Zhong, Yao Gu, and Liu Yanqing, veterans of the Northwest Army, were ordered to return to Beijing in batches to visit Zhao Guan's family. At that time, in their eyes, what Zhao Guan did was...

Extremely stupid...

Now, in the eyes of these veterans of the Northwest Army, Zhao Guanjia is not only a wise king and a lord in terms of governance, but also in the arrangement and deployment of military operations. The Zhao Guanjia's outstanding performance can definitely be called a sage king and lord!

During this military meeting, the generals respected and worshiped Zhao Guanjia even more.

In their hearts, the Zhao Guan family has simply been reborn, from a group of incompetent and mediocre people to a sage and lord that is hard to find throughout the ages!

This military meeting has lasted for nearly an hour and is coming to an end.

Suddenly, the announcer shouted loudly outside the Chinese army's tent:

"The official report is that the enemy prisoner Brother Richard has regained consciousness. Although his hands and legs are tied and he cannot speak, he keeps struggling."

"Haha..." Zhao Ji smiled slightly and said to everyone in the tent:

"Brother Richard is worthy of being the first god of war in Xixia! He was so seriously injured, but he came back to life in just an hour and is still struggling."

"If the report is true, brother Richard should be immediately taken to the gate of Xijing City to show off to the public, in order to undermine the enemy's morale and undermine the enemy's determination to defend!"
