Chapter 78 Shenzong abdicates in the third quarter

The strategy of the Xixia alliance against Mongolia and gold not only failed to exchange for the friendship of Mongolia, but also put itself in the predicament of being attacked by the enemy.But facing two powerful enemies at the same time, Xixia will surely face a catastrophe.So what was Xia Shenzong's attitude towards Xixia's situation at that time? As soon as the Mongolian army withdrew, Xia Shenzong came back triumphantly, the Mongols had nothing to do with me!Crown Prince Deren persuaded Shenzong to help the tyrant and the tiger, we can no longer do it, and we must make peace with Jin Guo anyway, and we can no longer take this suicide route.The emperor was very angry when he heard that, so he imprisoned the prince and abolished him. Soon the prince died.Xia Shenzong continued to take the suicidal path of development, and the ministers were very disgusted. We have no great hatred with Jin. We have sent troops year after year to help Mongolia cut down Jin. The national power has been exhausted to the extreme. If this continues, the demise of Xixia is just around the corner.

At this time, the Mongols came to Xixia to send troops to cut gold together.Regardless of the advice of his ministers, Xia Shenzong sent 100,000 troops to attack Fengxiang Mansion in the Kingdom of Jin together with the Mongolian soldiers. Unexpectedly, the Mongols were defeated this time.Originally, the army of the Xixia Kingdom did not want to fight against the Kingdom of Jin. Those who burned my city walls, killed my people, and destroyed my crops were all Mongols. Why should I fight against Jin?The Hundred Thousand Xia Army retreated back to the country without saying a word to Mu Huali under the pretext that they could not defeat the Jin Army.As soon as the Xixia people withdrew, Mu Huali became angry. The Mongols used this as an excuse to send troops to attack Xia for the fifth time, and then invaded the territory of Xixia, slaughtered and looted, and then withdrew.

At this time, Xia Shenzong has no masters, and he really can't get along anymore. The ministers quit their jobs and came forward one after another. You are old, are you considering retiring to the second line?Xia Shenzong thought about it, I really can't clean up this mess, I have seen what happened to Li Anan, he is not safe, so I don't want to do this job.So Shenzong abdicated and became the only Supreme Emperor of Xixia.The throne passed to his second son, Dewang, who became Xia Xianzong.After Xianzong succeeded to the throne, what he faced was a dying dynasty, the dying scene, the mountains and rivers were broken, and there was no way to recover.
