The news that the Mushe people just received came from Xiaoguan. There was a battle between the Xixia army and Shang Boqian's troops stationed in Xiaoguan. Xiaoguan is the only way to Longyou in Hexi. Of course, if you have to,
If someone climbs over the mountains, there is actually no barrier between Hexi and Longyou. It can be said that there are roads everywhere. However, such a mountain road is impassable for large groups of people. Even if large groups of people can pass, they will not be able to carry too much food and baggage.
Not to mention horses and other indispensable weapons of war, Xiaoguan, located among the mountains, immediately highlighted its importance as the only passage that allowed large groups of people to pass.
Therefore, whether it was to guard against Li Guangrui at the beginning or to guard against Yang Hao now, Xiaoguan is the most important military location for Shang Boqian, the leader of the Tubo army. There are 70,000 tribesmen stationed here.
In a dangerous location, there are 70,000 nomadic tribesmen stationed there, including men, women, old and young. This place is simply an iron wall.
However, Yang Hao's side is not completely in a situation of losing all geographical advantages. There is Duoling beyond Xiaoguan. Shang Boqian does not occupy the entire mountain, overlooking the Hexi Yimapingchuan. When Li Guangrui was there, the army of Dingnan was there.
After occupying Duoling and building a barracks and fortress here, after Yang Hao took over the army, the defenders naturally defected to Yang Hao. However, judging from the terrain, the most dangerous and difficult to attack section is in Longyou.
In Shang Boqian's hands, the mountains occupied by Hexi are completely incomparable.
Shang Boqian has no intention of starting a war with Yang Hao at the moment. Luo Dan is also the leader of the Tubo tribe, and he has been opposing him in Longyou. Although Luo Dan's power is far less than him, it is not something he can destroy if he wants to.
In addition, as soon as the two white wolves Li Jijun and Ye Luohe arrived in Longyou, they were busy grabbing territory, people, money and things before their enthusiasm was over. However, with the acquiescence and support of the Song Dynasty, he could not
He fell out, so he definitely didn’t want to provoke Yang Hao at this time.
The problem is, he doesn't want to. Some people think that this person is Li Jiyun.
Li Jiyun used the banner of Dangxiang people in his territory, and as the young master of Dangxiang, he aggressively recruited the Dangxiang people who were nomadic in Longyou. Shang Boqian looked very unsightly, but Li Jiyun's methods were very gentle, and Shang Boqian also
I couldn't fall out, so I had an idea and assigned him a piece of land near Xiaoguan and asked him to help guard Xiaoguan.
Shang Boqian knew that although Li Jiyun was not of the same mind as him, his attitude towards Yang Hao was definitely more hostile and quarrelsome than him, so transferring him was the most appropriate arrangement. However,
He definitely didn't expect that Li Jiyun was more active and proactive than he thought.
Yang Hao became the king, which was of greater significance than when he was the emperor. Everyone knew that when he was the emperor, he was fighting the Song Dynasty. This emperor was a bit unreliable, and he was not recognized by all the forces at all.
, even within Yang Hao, many people actually don’t take it seriously. If you say I want to be the emperor, then it really counts as the emperor. Throughout the ages, there have been many rebellious mud-legged people and the mountain kings who occupy the mountains.
If you have been given the title of a country or called an emperor, won't it be recorded in the history of the emperor?
But it is different now. Yang Hao is now called king. Although he is shorter than before when he was called emperor, it is indeed recognized by the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty is the only country that has the right to question the legality of the existence of Yang Hao's regime. The Song Dynasty
Agree, then the current Yang Hao regime in Hexi is no longer a grassroots team, but a real kingdom. His regime, his government, and his civil and military officials will be a formal existence from now on.
Even if he goes to the Song Dynasty as an envoy one day, he will still have the status of an envoy.
How could Li Jiyun endure it? The country, the army, and everything there should have been his. Now Yang Hao was going to call himself the King of Xixia, but to what extent had he fallen? When Yang Hao was preparing for the founding ceremony,
If he doesn't do something to mix things up, then he is not Li Jiyun.
So, Li Jiyun rushed to Xiaoguan and established his own camp. The first thing he did was to meet the Tubo general Huyan Aobo who was stationed in Xiaoguan. The first thing he did after meeting Huyan Aobo was to present a charming beauty.
Son, Hua Feidi, the favorite ninth lady of the former Suizhou governor Li Pilu and Li Jijun's bedside companion, was taken as a stepping stone by him and hit Huyan Aobo's head with a brick.
Huyan Aobo happily accepted this fragrant, soft and fragrant tile, which was the best for heating beds. After accepting it, he smiled and rejected Li Jiyun's suggestion to send troops to attack the Xixia barracks, and hurried back to his bedroom with a lewd smile.
I went to test the effectiveness of the heated bed as a stepping stone.
Huyan Aobo is not afraid of fighting, and is very good at fighting. He is the number one general under Shang Boqian. At the same time, he is also Shang Boqian's sworn brother and is loyal to Shang Boqian. Without Shang Boqian's order, he will not send out any troops at all.
He was willing to accept gifts as soon as the troops were dispatched, but he refused without hesitation the suggestion of sending troops.
"This bastard is unreasonable!"
Li Jiyun scolded him, but he had just arrived, and his strength was not at the same level as Huyan Aobo's, and he did not dare to offend him, so he could only think of his own ideas. The way Li Jiyun came up with was to send small groups of troops to continuously attack the Xixia troops stationed on Duoling.
Soldiers and horses, and then consciously led them into Huyan Aobo's defense range. His strategy of luring the enemy did work. After being harassed repeatedly, Huyan Aobo dispatched his soldiers and horses, and fought with the Xixia soldiers in a serious manner.
One fight resulted in the loss of a camp on the Xixia side.
The camp was lost. How could General Duoling Xia dare to be careless? He asked for help from the troops stationed in Weizhou nearby, and launched a counterattack. The fight broke out within two seconds. The report Yang Hao received was the cause and effect of the entire incident.
Yang Hao read this military intelligence report, and his first reaction was: Zhuyun and Gouer are still in Bianliang, Yanyan is gradually withdrawing from control of "Feiyu Suifeng", and this intelligence organization can still quickly provide such
Based on the detailed information, it seems that the original organizational structure was very successful. It can ensure efficient operation no matter how the top leaders change. This is a mature and complete organization.
The second reaction is: Ziyu is really Zhuge among women. At first, it was Ziyu’s suggestion that he let Ye Luohe and Li Jiyun go and put them in Longyou, and these two guys lived up to their expectations.
What they did in Longyou is actually more helpful to me than killing them. Ziyu..., this girl must have come back with Brother Zhe, right? There has been no news about her...
Musheren had been watching Yang Hao's face carefully. After seeing the report, his face changed unpredictably. Finally, he suddenly fell into a trance and couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, without your will, Weizhou cannot send troops.
, Pingduoling garrison is no match for Huyan Aobo, do you think this matter...?"
Yang Hao pondered for a long time and said: "I'm not very familiar with the guy over at Duoling, and I don't know much about the strength of Shang Boqian in Longyou. Let's go back first and wait for a few ministers to come back and have a good discussion. No matter what, Isolation
The kingdom is approaching, and envoys from various countries are arriving one after another. If Shang Boqian is so provocative, Gu has to retaliate, otherwise wouldn't it make people look down on Gu's family?"
"Tell them to continue playing, let's go!" Yang Hao strode forward. Mu Yuqiao glanced back and quickly followed.
Yanzhou produces salt. The salt here not only supplies the needs of the Hexi states, but is also exported to the Liao and Song Dynasties. The Liao and Song Dynasties also have salt-producing areas, but the salt there is far less pure and tastes better than the snow salt here.
, so in order not to impact the country's salt economy, both countries have protective policies for the salt dumped in Hexi. Especially the Song Dynasty, which is not allowed to sell salt from Hexi at all, but the salt from Hexi is of good quality and low value, so it is lured by profit.
There are still many people smuggling privately, which has contributed to the prosperity of Yanzhou.
Currently, among the prefectures in Hexi, only in terms of the abundance of people in Wufu and the scale of commerce, neither Xiazhou nor Yang Hao's new capital, Xingzhou, is as good as Yanzhou. At this moment, Zhe Yuxun's family is in a team of 800 people.
Under the escort of the cavalry team, we just arrived in Yanzhou. Because the business here is developed, there are many big salt merchants who have made their fortunes by wholesale and selling salt. Therefore, they have many magnificent houses, villas, xiazhuang, etc., so it is easy for local officials to find a big salt merchant.
A salt merchant borrowed a villa to house Zhe's family.
This villa has everything you need, and even the servants and maids have not been evacuated. The Zhe family who have come from a long way have been taken care of very well. After traveling for such a long time, they have to go through a long journey every time they arrive in a city.
On the journey, especially from then on heading west to Lingzhou, there is no longer the famous city Dafu in the middle, but the eight hundred miles of Hanhai. Zhe Ziyu, who has always loved cleanliness, naturally wanted to take advantage of this rare condition to take a bath.
The fragrant soup has been prepared. The hot water with Angelica dahurica, peach bark, cypress leaves, Lingling, Aoki incense and other spices is filled with a layer of mist. Gently dip into the water, and the warm water presses against the whole body.
All the fatigue was gone, and Ziyu couldn't help but let out a sigh of joy.
Gently scooping up the water, her slender jade fingers pressed against her slender shoulders, slid across her sexy collarbone, and touched the slightly swollen patch of white. Then she submerged into the steaming water. The steam was dense, making her beautiful face
Sometimes it disappears and sometimes appears, like a jade Guanyin.
Every time she took another step to Xingzhou, she was one step closer to Yang Hao, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little more fluttering. After experiencing the emotional twists and turns, she was willing to exchange the jade seal with Yang Hao.
After her whole family, looking back now is like an adult looking back at some of the little things that bothered her when she was a child. Apart from laughing, there is only a trace of nostalgia for the childishness and innocence of her childhood.
She felt that her soul had been completely freed. There had been too many things that had bound her physically and mentally. But now that her family had to be reborn, the biggest concern in her heart had been freed, and she was unwilling to accept many things.
The thought, when she looked back after suffering so much, was completely worthless. Once the burden weighing on her shoulders, which was as heavy as a mountain, was lifted, it was so light that it made people feel ecstatic.
"Brother Hao..."
The heat of the water in her palms touched a high and sensitive place. Her eyes were dark and shiny, and her pretty face was flushed with a blush caused by the combination of hot water and shyness. She was as bright as a peach blossom. Once, she only remembered him.
But now she only remembers his good qualities, and when she thinks about his good qualities, not only does he become so beautiful in her heart, but the warmth and joy also warm her body and mind like the fragrant hot water.
.
It turns out...it turns out...when you think good things in your heart, it will be so beautiful! No wonder Brother Hao said: If you have heaven in your heart, you will be in hell when you are in hell. If you are in hell in your heart, you will be in heaven and in hell. By the way,
This sentence was said by Brother Hao to Tang Yanyan. He said that because he said this sentence, it also caused Yanyan to misunderstand and mistakenly thought that he was in love with Yanyan...
She sighed leisurely: Yes, it was a misunderstanding at the time, but later it turned out to be true. Thinking of all the past, and thinking of Tang Yanyan, her eyes became a little confused. After a long time, she seemed to have figured something out, and she just smiled.
A slight smile, full of light and air...
"Brother?"
Zhe Ziyu took a bath for a long time, as if she was going to be a newlywed tomorrow. She bathed in fragrant soup and washed herself clean without any dirt. Then she put on her robe and walked out of the bathroom. This is who
The place where the ladies of the great salt merchant bathed was in the inner room of this bedroom. Coming out, there was a dressing table, an embroidered couch, and eight ladies' polo screens. In the outer room, there were round tables, brocade stools, and other furniture.
Because the screen was translucent, and the lamp was on the table, so as soon as she walked out of the bathroom door, she saw through the screen a person sitting in front of the table, drinking a cup of tea. Even if she only saw an outline, she would recognize that person.
He is his elder brother, not to mention that a translucent screen cannot completely cover a person's face.
Zhe Ziyu had already put on his nightgown, but now he gathered it up again, tightened the belt, and walked quickly around the screen. Zhe Yuxun was raising a glass to his lips, drinking fragrant tea. When he saw her coming out, he smiled slightly.
, said: "Sit."
Zhe Ziyu sat down beside him and said with a smile: "Brother, I have to go on the road early tomorrow morning. Why don't you rest yet? Do you have anything to say to me?"
"Well, I do have something to say to you, and it's very important."
Zhe Ziyu suppressed her smile and moved closer to him. There must be something very important for her brother to come to her room so late, but she really couldn't think of anything important that he could discuss with her at this time. Could it be... Could it be...
Is it my marriage?
Ziyu's heart jumped up and down, and his face became a little unnatural. He quickly turned over a tea cup and poured himself a cup of tea. He concealed his expression and said, "Brother, what's going on?"
Zhe Yuxun was looking at her, looking at her first, then the next, left, right, making her feel uncomfortable all over. She couldn't help but said angrily: "What are you looking at? Are there flowers growing on my body?"
Zhe Yuxun chuckled, shook his head and said: "That boy, I really care about you. Even those who participated in it, most of them didn't know about it, and you... were not involved, but he specifically asked me to report to him.
It's really rare for you to explain this."
Zhe Ziyu immediately knew what the boy his elder brother was referring to, but he became even more curious because of it, and quickly asked: "What do you want to explain to me?"
Zhe Yuxun took a sip of tea and said: "I heard that when he was an official in Bianliang, he was involved in the selection of courtesan. He had many ideas and helped arrange plays and songs, which caused a stir in Tokyo.
Everyone in the city knows it, everyone knows it?”
Zhe Ziyu curled his lips and said disdainfully: "He, he is just messing around. He pretends to be a public servant, and chooses here and there. One flower leader and one leaf leader are all chosen to live in his own private house. Why do you ask this?"
That look was like an uncle praising his brother-in-law, and the wife wanted to be humble for her husband, which caused a knowing smile to appear in Zhe Yuxun's eyes.
Cai Yuxun took another sip of tea and nodded: "Well, the four major leaders are fighting to the death, and everyone in Tokyo is busy working with them. Actually? This matter is all under his control. The four major leaders are fighting to the death.
The leader of the line already knew the ranking results before choosing the oiran, but which one of them benefited the most could not be clearly understood until long after the end. And people all over Tokyo were busy following the work, although they did not know the results of the ranking in advance.
Who got the name? I still don’t understand anything afterwards. They are participants, but they are always spectators, and they are spectators who are kept in the dark from beginning to end. Hey! Why do I think this kid is a magician? "
Zhe Ziyu was going crazy, grabbed his hand and asked: "Brother, what is going on?"
The more anxious she became, the calmer Zhe Yuxun became. It was rare to see his sister be so sweet-natured. He didn't want his sister to be old-fashioned. Zhe Yuxun took another sip of tea slowly and took time to dust off his clothes.
, seeing his sister's almond-shaped eyes widening and about to burst into anger, he said: "Little sister, a few days ago Shixiong left the defense line to greet me. You warned Lao Cheng that no matter what happened in the past, he is now a general under Yang Hao's command.
You should know your limits. If you leave your duties without permission and show off in such a big way, you have already lost your duty, right?"
"Why, what the girl said is wrong? Or maybe...my brother wants to..."
Zhe Yuxun smiled bitterly and said: "What are you thinking about? Even if the state is still there, all I want is to preserve the inheritance of my ancestors, but do I have a bigger ambition? Now that there is nothing, are you losing your mind when you become the eldest brother? That's it.
Overestimating one's own capabilities? Furthermore, he exchanged his eldest brother for a national jade seal, so he is so ruthless and unjust?"
"So……"
"Lao Cheng is an upright and loyal man. He was a slave of Du Chongwei's family. After Du Chongwei's death, the trees fell down and the hozens scattered. In addition to his bad reputation, people who had benefited from him in the past did not dare to have anything to do with him anymore.
And Lao Cheng... is just a slave of the Du family, but he can go to great lengths to take over the old master's family and take care of them as usual. His courage and loyalty are unparalleled. He came to pick me up because of his temperament.
However, although Lao Cheng seems rude and bold, he is actually a very thoughtful person. Will he abandon his station in a big way, lead a large group of people to block the road and set up tents to serve me wine? "
Zhe Ziyu frowned and said doubtfully: "You mean?"
"Hey, of course it was that kid who ordered it."
Zhe Ziyu was immediately moved. He held his little face with both hands, and with stars in his eyes, he said happily: "He...he is a conscientious person..." In front of his elder brother, he shouldn't praise him too much, but
She still couldn't help but say something.
Zhe Yuxun couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "Fu's conscience. Now of course you can see whatever he does. This kid deliberately instigated Lao Cheng to put on such a show, not to welcome your brother, but just to harm others."
That’s all.”
"Ah! Who are you harming?" Zhe Ziyu immediately became nervous again.
Zhe Yuxun then leaned forward and told her everything. Zhe Yuxun spoke for a long time, and Zhe Ziyu listened for a long time. When everything was finished, Zhe Yuxun said: "Now, this kid is going to
Performing a bigger play, this time not only the booing theatergoers will be kept in the dark, but even many of the people inside will be kept in the dark. Those who truly understand his intentions will never
More than this number.”
Zhe Yuxun stretched out a hand, spread out his five fingers, showed it front and back, and said: "Originally, you have nothing to do with this drama, but he specifically asked me to let you know everything. You said
Does he value you particularly?"
Zhe Ziyu blinked, and suddenly rolled her eyes playfully, imitating her elder brother's tone and said: "It's so important. He...he is obviously worried that I will misunderstand, and that I will be stingy."
Zhe Yuxun said with a smile: "Then if you didn't hear what eldest brother said to you today, would you be stingy?"
"Of course..." her confident and high-pitched voice suddenly lowered, and she mumbled something in her throat that even she couldn't hear clearly.
"What? Brother didn't hear clearly."
Zhe Ziyu blushed and shouted loudly: "I won't be stingy!"
Zhe Yuxun curled his lips and said disapprovingly: "Really?"
"Really, really." Zhe Ziyu hurriedly changed the topic, rolled his eyes, and said: "It's feasible. The first step is to attack with troops, the second is to attack friends, the second is to attack troops, and the second is to attack the city. This is considered a strategy.
Okay. But... I see him doing this, and he wants to kill two birds with one stone."
This time it was Zhe Yuxun's turn to wonder: "You kill two birds with one stone, how can you say this?"
Zhe Ziyu said seriously: "It cannot be denied that most of the people he placed in high regard came from humble beginnings or were desperate, so they attached themselves to him. There is no doubt about his loyalty, but no one is perfect, and everyone has his shortcomings.
During my few days in Xiazhou, I have already noticed that, for example, most of the generals who came from Luzhou feel superior, and even when facing officials with a higher rank than themselves, they are a little less respectful.
Most of the surrendered generals are cautious, so they consciously approach each other and form another group.
For another example, Ding Chengzong has a somewhat withdrawn personality, and all his thoughts revolve around Yang Hao, and he does not pay much attention to making friends with civil and military personnel; Zhong Fang is highly regarded by Yang Hao, especially through the Luzhou Yanwu Hall, and the students he personally taught are all over the army, becoming
The backbone of the generals, so except when facing a few people such as Yang Hao and Ding Chengzong, Zhongfang has the air of being a teacher and likes to put on airs when dealing with others. Zhang Pu is also a versatile man in both civil and military affairs, but he only achieved this status after having accomplished several great achievements.
He has a status that is not inferior to that of Zhongfang, so when he meets Zhongfang, who is above the top, both of them are a little displeased with each other..."
Zhe Yuxun smiled and said: "This is normal. Even if we are a family, there are some who get along and some who don't. What's more, with such a huge force, when I was in Fuzhou, were the generals under my command the same? Looking at the world,
As big as a country or as small as a state or a prefecture, there are always problems of one kind or another among people."
Zhe Ziyu said: "Yes, but Yang Hao's situation is a bit special. He rose too fast, and his men came from all directions. He seemed to be prosperous for a while, but his foundation was not stable. Therefore, the internal strife among other officials could not be solved.
Harmony will not affect the overall situation, but once it develops to a point where it is difficult to reconcile, it will cause considerable problems. What's more, what I mentioned does not include some half-hearted fishermen."
Zhe Yuxun stared at him and said, "What do you mean?"
Zhe Ziyu smiled proudly and said: "I said he wanted to kill two birds with one stone. In addition to deceiving the self-righteous guy, the other purpose was to use fake drama to make the discord secretly cultivated by the civil and military bureaucrats under his command.
Opportunities are put on the table to allow them to have a good attack. The real disaster will be eliminated through this opportunity.
It's just that they have a grudge against each other and cannot get along with Wenwu. They know it's a joke, so naturally they won't really be at odds with each other. However, there are indeed frictions between them due to various personalities, origins, etc. Through this matter,
They will understand the disadvantages of fighting like this, they will reflect on it, and they will understand that one day, once such conflicts really occur between them, it will be harmful to both themselves and others, and they will consciously avoid going to that step. This is not a win-win situation.
?”
"Hmm..." Zhe Yuxun stroked his long beard and Danfeng narrowed his eyes: "I didn't expect this. If this is the case, this guy is really cunning."
"Brother, is this smart? I've never seen you come up with such a method."
Zhe Yuxun stood up with a smile: "Anyway, it would be great if you understood his intention in doing this, so as not to get angry and run away again!"
Zhe Ziyu paused and said: "Brother..."
"Haha, don't say it, don't say it. I've told you everything now. Go to bed early. You have to go on the road tomorrow. Whether he is smart or cunning, or cunning, in short... he is using it on his enemies, isn't it?
Use it on you, that's fine."
Zhe Yuxun patted his sister's shoulder lovingly, turned around and walked out.
After seeing Zhe Yuxun off, she closed the door, moved the lamp and candle to the dressing table behind the screen, and sat down beside the dressing table. Gazing at her beautiful face in the delicate bronze mirror, she gently let go of her rolled-up hair.
Beautiful hair, a head of shiny black hair hanging down, I took a jade comb and gently combed my hair, I couldn't help but think about it.
"That bad guy! I originally planned to hand over myself to him when I arrived in Xingzhou this time. No matter if he is a prince, general or minister, a gentry or a commoner, I will be my husband and raise my children from now on, and stay by his side. Who knows, but he came up with the idea
Such a deceptive idea, if this is the case, I can’t marry him right away..."
"Sigh! You're worthless, do you really miss a man?"
Her smooth face hidden by her hair suddenly turned red. She made a face at the shameless little girl in the mirror, stood up slowly, and slowly untied her soft robe with a pair of delicate hands as beautiful as jade.
, the beauty in the mirror was only wearing a small dress, standing pretty, with fragrant shoulders and jade legs, a pink neck and pepper breasts, even she looked a little crazy in her eyes.
The jade finger slid from her curved eyebrows and straight nose to the sexy and rosy mouth, and then gradually moved to the ivory-like jade neck and flawless breasts...
I admire the beauty alone and feel pity for myself. I feel pity for you when I see you.
The full breasts, the soft and slender waist, there is no gap when they are put together, and the straight legs that can't even insert a little finger, all show that this is a mature woman, just like a
The ripe red fruit has fresh juice and tender flesh, waiting for its owner to taste its deliciousness.
Ziyu's face is getting hotter and hotter: Yes, I want a man, I want that big bad guy... who bullies me...
As soon as this bold idea came up, she was shocked. She immediately ran away in shame, pulled the quilt and covered her head and face with a huff. With a "hoo", the newly covered
The quilt was lifted again. Ziyu opened his eyes wide and stared at the splendid painting of fish playing with lotus leaves on the top of the curtain, thinking in his heart: "Where is that Aguli? Is it fake?"
"The danger of Xiaoguan can only be captured by force. It is a place where one man can guard the pass and no one can open it. The reason why Shang Boqian stationed heavy troops there is not because it is difficult to guard it without stationing heavy troops. The real reason is that there is
The pastures at the foot of the mountains and the forests on the mountains could have supported such a large group of people and settled down, so of course they would not have to move around and graze as such a large group."
Li Jitan was originally a general in Xiazhou. When Shang Boqian's troops came out of Xiaoguan to cooperate with the Tibetan people in Liangzhou to fight against the Dingnan army, he fought with Shangboqian's army and chased it all the way to Xiaoguan.
I am very familiar with it, so I have the right to speak.
"In addition, the main reason why Shang Boqian stationed heavy troops there was that he would be attacked from the inside. The mountains on the Longyou side are not steep. And the Longyou parties have just recently established Shangbo
Shangbo Qian's dominance was previously dominated by the Shangbo Qian tribe, the Dashi tribe, the Xiaoshi tribe, the Anjia tribe, and the Yanjia tribe. Tubu, Wang Nizhu and other Tubo leaders were not weaker than Shangbo Qian.
The foundation of Shifa Boqian is mainly near Xiaoguan. It was only in the past two years that he became the leader of various tribes with the support of the Song Dynasty."
Ding Chengzong said: "We don't expect to conquer Xiao Pass. What's the use of conquering Xiao Pass? Shang Boqian is a person supported by the Song Dynasty. If we really attack Xiao Pass, the Song Dynasty will definitely intervene. By then we will
There is the Song army in the east and the Tubo army in the south. If we are attacked on both sides, it will be like having two diseases in one body and it will be difficult to sustain the situation. Our goal is to consolidate the territory of the eighteen states in Hexi, expand the influence of the Xia Kingdom among the countries in the Western Region, and become the overlord of the Western Region. However,
Now that Shang Boqian is actively provoking, we cannot turn a deaf ear. What we want is to teach him a lesson!"
Zhong Fang also spoke on the side: "The founding ceremony of the country is coming soon, and the envoys from the Western Regions countries will arrive soon. If we face one of Shang Boqian's lackeys, we have nothing to do and will definitely be underestimated by them. These Western Regions
Small countries have always bullied the weak and feared the strong. Seeing this situation, they will feel disrespectful towards our king. Therefore, it is necessary to teach them a lesson."
Li Jitan showed his hands and said: "But even if we gather ten times the troops and horses, it is not easy to capture Xiaoguan. If there are ten times the enemy's troops and horses, but they can't maneuver around in the deep mountains and narrow valleys, how can we teach him a lesson?"
Yang Hao smiled slightly and said proudly: "Master Li, don't cultivate the ambition of the enemy and destroy your own prestige. When has a lonely king fought with all his strength? If we can't defeat the enemy, why can't we outwit him?"
Yang Hao said confidently: "Yes, it's smart. The Hengshan Qiang cross mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground. They are best at climbing dangerous peaks and cliffs. If a Qiang soldier who is good at climbing mountains and ridges is sent to surprise the enemy camp and cooperate with the inside and outside, it will not be possible."
How many of his forts should I capture? I don’t want too many. If he takes one more fort, I will take three of his forts and give them some color in return. That’s enough!"
Mushe was hurriedly taking notes. When he heard this, he looked up at Yang Hao and then immersed himself in recording...
