Chapter 68 Chapter Thirteen

Since Xia Chongzong and Li Qianshun came to power, he has changed Xixia's previous strategy of governing the country, advocating the development of production, recuperating and recuperating, suppressing martial arts and advocating literature, both Han and Han studies, plus the assistance of three princes who are capable of both literature and martial arts. The national strength that suffered serious losses gradually recovered.However, Xixia's peaceful life happened within a few days... Although Chongzong made great efforts to govern, in terms of military situation, Song was strong and Xia was weak.At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Huizong was in power, extravagant and extravagant, and he was very happy with his achievements. He built large-scale construction projects at home, and he wanted to restore the glory of his ancestors abroad. dig a grave.

At that time, the Jin Dynasty had not risen yet, Song and Liao had no excuse to fight, and they knew they couldn't fight, let alone the two countries have been reconciled for a hundred years.In order to expand the frontiers, the supreme military officer Grand Duke Tong Guan colluded with the traitor Cai Jing and instigated Emperor Huizong to go to war against Xixia.This was exactly what Emperor Huizong wanted, so he ordered the attack on Xia.The Song Dynasty sent Liu Fa, an economic envoy, to lead 20,000 troops from Tong'an City.Tong'an City is geographically a prominent part, deep into the Xia territory, surrounded by enemies on three sides.Liu Fa was unwilling and felt that he was not sure about fighting Xixia.Tong Guan was very angry. As a father-in-law, I would dare to fight, but you, as a general, dare not?You boasted to the emperor back then, but now you are so timid, how decent is it?Liu Fa was in a lot of pain, you father-in-law, you don't even grow a beard, are you really going to the front line?I have to go up there with my head in my hands and work hard.But there was no other way, the father-in-law represented the emperor, Liu Fa had no choice but to lead 20,000 people to Tong'an City to start a war with Xia's army.

The general leading the army of Xia Guo is Jin Wang Chage.When Cha Ge saw that Liu Fa's army had arrived, he formed a three-tier formation, with the infantry advancing forward and the cavalry going around Liu Fa's back.After seven days of fierce fighting, the Song army was out of support and was about to fail.Seeing that Tong'an City could no longer be defended, Liu Fa ordered his troops to retreat.The Song army has always been like this. When it goes well, it is definitely one victory after another. When it is not going well, it is one defeat after another. Survival, turning defeat into victory, this kind of thing has never happened.As long as the order to retreat is given, it will turn into a retreat, turn around and run.When running, there is no way, which troop will cover, which troop will withdraw first, if there is no one, run first and kill first.At this point, Liu Fa had no choice but to run along.His back was a little too tight, and he fell off the horse while running, and fell on the cliff, breaking his leg. A junior Xia Guo Xiaoxiao who was doing handyman rushed up and chopped off his head with a knife, and dedicated it to King Cha of Jin. .

After seeing Liu Fa's head, Brother Cha felt very sorry. General Liu Fa defeated me several times on the border. He is a natural genius. I admire him very much, even though he is my enemy.I didn't expect him to die so uselessly today and be beheaded by a small school of our army.Immediately, brother Cha asked the school what is your name?The little school said it again, but the prince didn't remember it.Such an unknown small school actually killed General Liu Fa, what does that mean?General Liu Fa is proud of his victory.He always beats me, so he doesn't take me seriously, so our army should take it as a warning.After we win a battle, we must be calm, and we must know how many bowls of dry food we have to eat, and a proud soldier will surely lose.In fact, Liu Fa was not arrogant. He was forced to send troops, and he was defeated and died. Tong'an City was occupied by Xia Jun.

The Xia army struck while the iron was hot, and then attacked another salient part of the Song army. The Song army fought against the enemy and was defeated again.The generals suggested that Brother Cha, king of Jin, let us occupy this salient part of the Song Dynasty in one go.Brother Cha said to keep it. The protruding part is surrounded by me on three sides. To maintain the city and the garrison in the city, transport water, transport food, select generals, and replace weapons can consume a lot of manpower and material resources of the Song Dynasty. Keep it for the Song Dynasty. Let's add a little more burden. When I want to occupy it, I can occupy it at any time. Why do I have to occupy it now?The price/performance ratio is too low.Besides, if I want to occupy this city, the Song Dynasty will have no burden.

Emperor Huizong saw that fighting with Xixia was of no benefit, so he told Xia Guo, if you admit that you were wrong, I will not fight you.Xia Guo quickly stepped down the donkey, because he knew that his national strength was not as good as that of the Song Dynasty. Although he won the battle, he was really not the opponent of the Song Dynasty if he wanted to fight.Emperor Chongzong hurriedly sent someone to invite peace. I was wrong, and I dare not recruit you again. The two countries finally lived in peace again.Chongzong continued to coexist peacefully with Liao and Song, and lived happily.Unexpectedly, something happened soon, something big happened.
