Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

"Withdraw the army! Withdraw the army quickly! The whole army returns to Xi'an Prefecture!"

After Ren Dejing came to his senses, he immediately gave orders to his brother Ren Degong and his family brother Ren Deren to retreat and escape.

Therefore, regardless of the fact that the war was not over, Ren Dejing shamelessly betrayed Li Liang's auxiliary army, and fled with the remaining troops.

"Brother Ximenqing has won! The Xixia army is about to flee, let's attack quickly!"

Ma Kuo rushed down from the top of the city, jumped on his horse, and said to Liu Kai who was already guarding the south gate.

"Open the city gate! Attack!"

The south gate of Pingxia City opened, and Ma Kuo and Liu Kai rushed out with three thousand soldiers, blocking the retreat of the Xixia Army.

Of course, Ren Dejing's army ran fast, and Ma Kuo and Liu Kai failed to catch the figure of the fellow, but attacked Li Liang's auxiliary army from behind after Ren Dejing's army fled.

At this time, Lu Zhishen's army and Shi Wengong's army also surrounded and joined forces with Ma Kuo and Liu Qi's army to complete the encirclement of Li Liang's auxiliary army.

Once the balance of victory and defeat is tilted, the gap between the two armies will snowball and become wider and wider.

The fear of death overcame their courage, and the cavalry of the Xixia Army lost their fighting spirit and dismounted and surrendered one after another.

Ximen Qing's army ended the battle before noon, and Ximen Qing also entered Pingxia City accompanied by Ma Kuo and Liu Kai.

In this battle, more than [-] main forces of the Xixia Army were wiped out, more than [-] people were captured, more than [-] horses were seized, and countless armors, weapons, food and grass were captured, and a brilliant victory was achieved.

Of the Xixia Army that participated in the siege of Pingxia City, only Ren Dejing, the magistrate of Xi'an Prefecture, saw the opportunity quickly and escaped the catastrophe.

However, Ren Dejing's army was just a part of the Xixia army, and it could no longer stop Ximen Qing from attacking the mainland of Xixia.

After this battle, more than half of Xixia's main force in the field was lost, and Chu and Xia had already changed their offensive and defensive positions.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Ximenqing led the army from Zhenrong Army to Pingxia City, and fought two battles of annihilation within two days. The famous Xixia Army generals Li Chage and Li Liangfu successively gave their heads, and the more than [-] Xia Army field elites under their command also disappeared.

Not long after Ximenqing entered the city, Wang Jin also sent someone from the Zhenrong Army to report that he had led the army to attack the Zhenrong Army and wiped out all the troops left behind by Brother Li Cha.

Qu Duan in Wang Jinjun was originally a native of the Zhenrong Army, and once served as the general of the Zhenrong Army.Qu Duan knew exactly where the defense was weak in the town's Rongjun city, and what local strengths were available, and reported it to Ximen Qing and Wang Jin.

Before Ximenqing led the army to leave, Qu Duan secretly got in touch with the township party in the city and made them appointments as internal agents.

Ximenqing led the army to Pingxia City in the north, and after leading Li Cha's army away from the main city of Zhenrong Army, Wang Jinjun went and returned.

The gates of the city should be opened at night, and the king's army should be brought into the city.

Although the Xixia army in the city resisted desperately, Wang Jin, Shi Jin, Han Shizhong, Qu Duan and other generals were all powerful generals in the world. After fighting in the streets in the middle of the night, they wiped out the defenders of the Zhenrong Army.

Wang Jin was leading his troops to repair at this time, waiting for Ximen Qingxin's order.

After Ximenqing read Wang Jin's battle report, he ordered him to temporarily guard Weizhou and Zhenrong Army, recharge his energy and prepare for the conquest of Xixia Kingdom.

At this time, there are many miscellaneous things in the army. First of all, it is necessary to write a battle report, report the victory to Bianliang City in Tokyo, and publicize Ximen Qing's great achievements to the world.

This matter is not difficult, Ximen Qing brought many staff who have done fine writing.These people will naturally write about the great victory of Pingxia City, which will shock the whole country.

Secondly, Ximen Qing and Wang Jin's troops captured tens of thousands of Xixia soldiers from Weizhou City to Pingxia City.Dealing with these people is also a troublesome matter.

Ximen Qing is not Liu Fa, a veteran of the Song Army, who has a bad habit of killing surrenders.

No matter how many enemies he eliminated on the battlefield, Ximen Qing would not blink.But in the face of the unarmed Xixia army captives, Ximen Qing, who had been educated in the three views of humanitarianism and traveled back from modern times, could not commit massacres.

These Xixia army captives are nothing more than their own masters, and they are also the people of Xixia Kingdom in essence.Many of them were even Han Chinese.

These captives were different from the bandits and bandits that Ximenqing had exterminated before.Bandits and robbers are people who really oppress the good and do all kinds of evil. Of course, Ximen Qing wants to kill the grass and get rid of it.

However, the captives in these troops were not morally corrupt and vicious.Like the soldiers of the Chu army, they also have parents, wives and children at home.

Poor Wuding Riverside Bone, still a spring boudoir dream!

Since Song and Xia turned against each other, the two countries have fought for decades. Many loyal bones of the Song army have been buried by the Wuding River, but why not buried the man in the Xixia woman's spring girl's dream?

Ximen Qing wanted to conquer the Xixia Kingdom, but it was impossible to exterminate the population. Therefore, he could not easily kill the prisoners and let himself lose the hearts of the Xixia Kingdom.

Wasn't it because the Overlord of Western Chu was so tyrannical back then that he killed 20 soldiers of the Qin army, and made himself completely lost in Guanzhong?

During the Chu-Han War, the former Qin army in Guanzhong became the main force in the Han army to destroy Chu.

Therefore, Ximenqing must properly handle the matter of the Xixia Army's captives.

If all these captives were held in Zhenrong Army and Pingxia City, it would be a great burden for the Chu Army.

After all, tens of thousands of people have to eat every day, and this alone will waste a lot of money and food for the Chu army.

When the army went out to fight, the transfer of money and food was the most difficult thing, and Ximen Qing couldn't support these tens of thousands of captives for nothing.

At this time, Ximen Qing didn't build the Great Wall, and he didn't dig gold mines, so he didn't need so much labor!

After Ximenqing entered the city, he immediately arranged for his staff to discuss how to deal with so many prisoners outside the city without killing them.

Ximen Qing, Ma Kuo, and Liu Kai sat down in the government office in the city, and praised the two generals' surprise attack on Pingxia City.

Under the influence of Ma Kuo, Liu Qi had already intended to take refuge in Ximen Qing.Today's battle made him witness the magic of Ximen Qing.

Therefore, as soon as Liu Kai saw Ximen Qing, he expressed his loyalty to him.

Ximen Qing had long admired Liu Kai among the "Four Generals of Zhongxing", and at this time took advantage of the situation and laughed and took Liu Kai for his own use.

Well, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun and Liu Qi are all together, can we play a table of mahjong?

Ximen Qing suddenly had a whimsical idea.

When Ximen Qing was talking happily with Ma Kuo and Liu Qi, his staff member Lu Xihao came to him and offered him a plan.

This Lu Xihao used to be Tong Guan's aide when he conquered Liao Dynasty, and was elected by Tong Guan to serve as the transfer envoy of Hebei Road after he obtained the land of Yan.

As a result, when the Jin army attacked the Song Dynasty, Lu Xihao and others were held hostage by Guo Yaoshi in Yanjing City, and they surrendered to the Jin army together.

Since then, Lu Xihao was brought by Wanyan Zongwang's side as an aide, and participated in the two battles of Bianliang City in Tokyo.

Perhaps it was Lu Xihao's performance that satisfied Wanyan Zongwang. When Chu State was established and Zhang Bangchang was canonized as emperor, Wanyan Zongwang also released Lu Xihao.

Before Ximenqing set out to fight, Taiwei Tongguan recommended Lu Xihao to Ximenqing.So Ximen Qing took him by his side and became his staff.

After discussing with Lu Xihao and his staff, they gave Ximen Qing a decision on how to deal with the prisoners, and asked the coach Ximen Qing to make a decision.

The opinion of Lu Xihao and others is that the prisoners of the Xixia army should be screened, and those who were injured in the battle and lost their combat power should be released to the Xixia Kingdom, so that they can return to their hometowns and become a burden for the Xixia people.

Moreover, the mouths of these wounded can also be used to spread fear to the Xixia domestic army, further damaging the morale of the Xixia army, and clearing the way for Ximen Qingbei.
