Xixia is naturally excited. Everyone knows that Liao is a strong enemy. They thought this battle would be very difficult. Even if they won in the end, the cost would never be small.
however, people didn't expect that it was so easy to win this time. The officials of the court naturally praised Li Qinglu and Huang Feng, which made Li Qinglu's rule of Xixia more stable.
the officials who were close to the state of Liao in the prison of Xixia were in a bad mood. At the beginning, they thought the news was false. It was the false news that Li Qinglu and Huang Feng were walking deliberately. When they determined that it was true through their relationship outside, they were shocked. In their mind, the Liao Army It's invincible. It's easy to sweep the Song Dynasty and fight against Xixia. Naturally, there is no problem.
just, why now? Fifty thousand Liao army was defeated by thirty thousand Xixia army. Moreover, it was so miserable and so fast that they arrived at the border of Xixia country. Even though they had not completely entered the territory of Xixia country, they were defeated. Moreover, they were defeated under the condition of their own preponderant number, which made the officials of Xixia country unable to accept.
did the Liao army deliberately lose? Obviously, it's impossible. As officials of Xixia state, they naturally have some knowledge of their own combat effectiveness. They know that the combat effectiveness of their own army is not as good as that of the Liao army, but how can they fail?
in the end, these officials all think that it must be the incompetence of the general who led the Liao state that led to such a result.
however, it is obviously not the case in Liao. Although yeluzhen did not become the commander in chief of the Song Dynasty, his ability to command and fight in the battlefield was well-known in Liao, not unknown. His ability was also recognized by all.
so when the news of the defeat of the Liao army was sent back to the Liao state, the people of the Liao state and the people of Xixia were still shocked. At this time, they seemed to feel invincible in the world. So big Song Dynasty was swept by them, and there was no place to resist.
as a result, when I arrived at the small Xixia, I actually suffered a loss, which was simply unacceptable to all.
however, no matter how unacceptable it is, it's already true that they were killed, yeluzhen was killed, and those scattered soldiers came back one after another. Only a few days ago, they set out for 50000 people, and only 10000 people came back just a few days later. This result is so frustrating.
of course, from the mouths of the scattered soldiers, they also learned about the situation that night and the main reason for the failure. It wasn't that their army was inferior to the other side, but that the other side used strategies and sent experts to assassinate the commander on their side, so that they could not form effective command in a short time. Then, the army of Xixia took advantage of The plane launched a night attack. In the process of night attack, they focused on killing the officers on their side. In this way, the command system on their side was even more chaotic and finally defeated, which was not so hard to understand.
however, it's one thing to be able to understand, but it's another to not accept. When the news reached the emperor of Liao, he broke many precious items in his palace and shouted to kill Xixia for revenge.
originally, the king of Liao just wanted to teach the disobedient ”little guy” a lesson, but now, Xixia's behavior has completely angered him, and he will kill Xixia!
but now there are not many troops in Liao. The rest of them have to stay in the country to protect the country. Naturally, they can't move around any more. So if they want to attack Xixia again, they can only rely on the troops of Song Dynasty.
fortunately, although the Liao army suffered a defeat in Xixia, the process of attacking Song Dynasty was very smooth. So far, at least, they haven't lost even one battle. Now they have surrounded Bianliang, the capital of the Song Dynasty, and it's a matter of time before they defeat the song Dynasty. When the Song Dynasty is defeated, the Liao army will turn around their guns and go for help Attack Xixia, let them know that Liao is not so easy to provoke.
however, although the Liao army did not lose in one battle in the Song Dynasty, it also had many troubles. The army of the Song Dynasty was indeed weak and unable to fight. However, there were many Wulin people in the Song Dynasty. During this period, these Wulin people, either in groups or by themselves, assassinated the commanders of the Liao army, although they were not able to defeat the army of the Song Dynasty The commander-in-chief didn't pose a great threat, but he was also killed by them at several levels, which made the people of Liaoguo feel a little headache.
however, it's just a headache. The Liao army doesn't think that this assassination will cause them too much trouble. In the Song Dynasty, they still want to fight down. These people in the Wulin are just looking for their own way.
however, in addition to the events in Xixia, the commanders in the Liao army were more careful to prevent some accidents.
