Song Que, a descendant of the Song family in Lingnan, does not have a very high status in the family because he is a commoner. However, he is a descendant of the Song family after all and has received a good education since he was a child.
And with the support of a lot of resources from his family, he is relatively talented in the practice of cultivation. He has become a third-rate warrior before the age of 20.
Such an achievement can be regarded as a genius. He could have had a better future, but due to some reasons, he was thrown directly to the northwest by the Song family.
There were rumors in the market, some said he was spying on his brother and sister-in-law, some said he was colluding with outsiders, there were different opinions, but Song Que would not be able to survive in Lingnan anyway.
After being thrown to the northwest by his family, Song Que lived in the city of Acropolis. Although his family threw him to the northwest, they never lacked money.
He had no worries about food and drink, so his daily life was to ride his horse to the areas outside the city to see the civil situation in Xiliang, and sometimes he would also go to watch the public military exercises in Xiliang.
Some military camps in Xiliang will be open at specific times and places for outsiders to watch the military training. Of course, what they see is not training, but neat troops performing military exercises.
There was no actual fighting, just marching forward uniformly. Since it was just that, it was an incomparable shock to those people.
Because there is basically no such military appearance in Daqian, these trained soldiers do not have much murderous intent in them because they have not been on the battlefield to fight. At most, they are just recruits who have just been recruited into the army for training.
But these new recruits alone shocked the surrounding spies and the sons of aristocratic families who came to the northwest.
Song Que was one of the people who was shocked.
These soldiers have never experienced fighting and are still just new recruits, but as long as they go to the battlefield a few times, they can quickly become a group of veterans.
Xiliang trains a group of new soldiers every few months. This speed frightens them. They don't know Xiliang's training methods, but they have seen Xiliang create such troops in batches.
But at the same time, they also learned that not everyone in Xiliang can join the army. Only those who can cultivate true energy or innate divine power can become a Xiliang soldier.
The benefits of becoming a Xiliang soldier made them, the noble family members, feel jealous after seeing them. Such treatment can make soldiers forget about life and death on the battlefield, because they know that even if they die, someone will take care of them at home.
Their death will not make the family poor, and the high pension will be enough for his children to grow up.
Not even the dynasty can provide that kind of treatment. Those who can compare with the treatment of Xiliang soldiers are probably only the imperial guards stationed in the imperial capital.
Song Que's biggest regret was that he could not enter the Xiliang military camp to see how those soldiers were trained. He knew very well that no one who was not from the Xiliang army could enter Xiliang before gaining the trust of Xiliang.
Watch the soldiers training in the military camp.
A force's method of training soldiers is a force's foundation. To explore a force's method of training soldiers is to peek into other people's trump cards.
This was just what ordinary soldiers from Xiliang looked like. He didn't know what the Xiliang headquarters army that was praised by countless people looked like.
"Gulu!"
After drinking half a bottle of wine in one gulp, Song Que looked outside with confused eyes. He couldn't go back to Lingnan, and he had no way to report anything to the northwest.
He wanted to leave the northwest to join other forces, but was blocked by the family's forces. They would not let him leave the northwest. If he could not join the army of Xiliang King Li Xiang, he would have to stay in the northwest for the rest of his life.
With.
Just like pigs raised by humans.
I can't apply what I have learned throughout my life, so I can only drink and drink here.
Song Que smiled helplessly and looked back at the table full of dishes. However, it was really a good life to be treated like a pig. At least he didn't have to worry about eating or drinking every day.
With all the delicacies on the table and the fine wine in your hand, a meal like this costs one or two taels of silver.
This is what he usually eats, but during Chinese New Year and holidays, he will go to higher floors and eat better food.
Although this area in the northwest is a bit desolate, in terms of food, basically there is no place other than the Imperial Capital that can compare with the restaurants in Xiliang.
If you want to eat seafood, you can order seafood. If you want to eat river fish, you can eat river fish. If you want to eat ferocious animal meat, you can order ferocious animal meat.
Here, they basically have things that the outside world has, and they also have things that the outside world doesn’t have.
There will even be delicacies from the Western world every once in a while, which are truly exotic delicacies that people will never forget after eating them.
"Song family, Song Que?"
A voice came from the side, but Song turned his head and looked over, only to see a tall and burly man walking towards him.
He is so tall, he is probably at the highest level in this land of northwest where there are many tall people.
There were several burly and tall guards following behind him. It seemed that this person's status was not low in Xiliang.
Song Que quickly stood up and said, "That's right."
"I heard that you are from the Song family in Lingnan? You may have learned military art since you were a child." Li Xiang sat down on the other side of the table without ceremony.
The Xiliang Restaurant is open to Xiliang Headquarters soldiers most of the time, and all the furniture built here is modeled after the bodies of Xiliang Headquarters soldiers.
Therefore, when many people use these tables and chairs, they feel that the seats are a bit high and a bit big, but the soldiers from the Xiliang headquarters and Li Xiang's people can sit on them just right.
"Have someone send me a few bottles of ferocious beast wine." Li Xiang glanced at the dishes and drinks on the table and said to the guard beside him.
The guard nodded, turned and left. The remaining three guards stood around to form a huge protective circle, and at the same time, created a vacuum area without the surrounding people noticing.
They used real energy to create a barrier to ensure that the conversation between the lord and the man would not be heard by others.
"I have been learning the art of war since I was a child. Although I have never really led an army in these years, I am confident that I can lead one or two thousand people without any problem!" Song Que felt that he must have met someone noble.
When he came to the northwest again, he got to know Xiliang. Xiliang soldiers are the main body in Xiliang. In addition to Xiliang headquarters, there are three legions established by ordinary people.
Although these three legions are ordinary people's legions, the soldiers of these three legions are not as bad as outsiders say. They are a bit weak compared to the soldiers of Xiliang headquarters, but they are no more elite than other forces on the battlefield.
The troops are poor.
The best evidence is the battle in Liangzhou. The 7th, 8th, and 9th legions of Xiliang all had troops participating in the war. On the battlefield, they were no worse than the Ma family army in Liangzhou. Sometimes they even occupied
Advantage.
However, Xiliang lacks various generals, because the generals of the 7th, 8th, and 9th legions have all followed Li Xiang a long time ago. Most of them are robbers and bandits, and only a small part of them have gone to school and have read
Some military books.
The identity of the big man in front of me is not simple at first glance, but if I can really catch his eye, I may be able to escape the control of my family and become a member of Xiliang.
By that time, not even the family can do anything to him. Isn't this the purpose of coming to the northwest?
"Then what do you think of Liangzhou?" Li Xiang asked.
Song Que thought for a while and said: "The only obstacle in Liangzhou now is the Ma family. However, the King of Xiliang has captured Zhangye County. The initiative in the war has fallen into the hands of Xiliang. Using Zhangye County as a springboard, we can
Attack the remaining counties wherever you can.
The Fufeng Ma family is currently recruiting soldiers. Their number looks scary, but in fact their combat effectiveness has not improved much. Moreover, the more troops they have, the more food they consume every day.
This means that once they start a war, food and grass will become their problem. If Xiliang attacks them, they can confront the enemy's army with a large army on the main battlefield. If the armies of both sides confront each other, more food will be consumed every day.
On the main battlefield, our army does not take the initiative to attack. We can just take care of the camp while confronting the opponent, and wait for the opponent to take the lead in attacking.
I have already done some research and found out that there is no shortage of food in Xiliang. In a confrontation on the battlefield, the opponent will definitely be the first to be unable to hold on. As long as the opponent moves first, there will definitely be flaws.
And on the side outside the main battlefield, we can send elite troops to launch sneak attacks in other places besides the enemy's main army..."
Song Que had already had a plan in mind to attack the surrounding areas of Liangzhou a long time ago.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Xiang really wanted to take Liangzhou, but due to various things and reasons, the fighting in Liangzhou stopped.
Li Xiang focused his energy on the northwest land, which also left the Fufeng Ma family a chance to breathe.
The Han family and the Pang family next to the Ma family have also begun to recruit troops on a large scale. They know that once Xiliang King Li Xiang comes to his senses, there will be a big melee in Liangzhou.
They don't want to give up their ancestors' inheritance, so they can only fight Xiliang once.
The regulations of the imperial court have long been forgotten by them. What they have to do is to protect their family's foundation.
The three big families took out everything in the family and created three powerful warlord forces.
The Bingzhou families on the Liangzhou side were frightened when they saw it, because the Liangzhou side was so crazy, and the troops of the three big families had reached one million.
On the vast grassland not far from the three big families, the Xianbei and Qiang nomads did not dare to go south, and the troops in the hands of the three big families had no place to train.
If the Xianbei and Qiang troops go south, the three major families will never be as stingy as before and directly send large armies north to fight against those enemies.
Soldiers must see blood. Otherwise, how can they withstand the offensive of those crazy Xiliang soldiers on the battlefield?
Song Que wanted to defect to the northwest, so he naturally knew all this information. Every big family in the world has its own intelligence power, and he was sent to the northwest.
Although he was actually controlled to the northwest, the family information was still shared with him, so if he wanted to know anything, he only needed to find out about it from the people in the northwest to get the situation in Liangzhou.
Li Xiang listened quietly to Song Que's various strategies. Song Que was indeed a rare talent, especially in some underhanded tricks. Li Xiang felt a chill on his back as he listened.
Perhaps Song Que was not very powerful on the frontal battlefield, but in terms of conspiracy and conspiracy, this sunny-looking man in front of him was so vicious.
Why put poison in the water source? Say goodbye to the arrow feathers and put some gold juice on them. The taste will not be affected, but it will be a battle for the heart.
Anyway, he did everything he could to win, and Li Xiang was very satisfied.
Song Que showed all his talents and knowledge without reservation. He knew that there were many things in his plan that the strong men would be ashamed of, but he didn't care.
Victory is the only thing in his heart. If he sacrifices something for victory, he can sacrifice it.
Even he can sacrifice himself, all for the sake of victory.
"Has anyone ever said that you are very vicious?" After hearing this, Li Xiang smiled and said to Song Que, "If I meet you on the battlefield, I will definitely kill you in the shortest possible time."
Song Que replied with a smile: "Young man is not very strong in cultivation, and his talent is average at best. He is mediocre in everything. He can only achieve success by taking the wrong approach.
I still don’t know what to call you adults?”
Li Xiang looked at Song Que carefully: "Although he is sinister, he is a rare talent. My name is Li Xiang, and I am the governor of Liangzhou."
"If you are willing, I can appoint you as a captain of thousands and give you a thousand Xiliang headquarters soldiers."
"Song Que, meet my lord!"
Song Que knew that Li Xiang had a high status, but he didn't expect that it was Xiliang Li Xiang. How could he let go of such a good opportunity in front of him?
He stood up directly from the chair, knelt down on the wooden board, and bowed to Prime Minister Li.
Lord, this is the honorific title given to Prime Minister Li by all high-ranking officials in Xiliang. The explanation of this name is just like that of a king.
If he were called like this elsewhere, he would probably be reported. This belongs exclusively to the emperor.
But here in Xiliang, only high-ranking officials in Xiliang can call Prime Minister Li like this, and most people are not even qualified to call him such a name.
Song Que would never let go of such an opportunity.
Li Xiang was stunned for a moment by Song Que's kneeling, but he soon laughed: "Get up, from today on, you are considered a member of Xiliang.
I wonder if you know anyone else who has some general skills?"
Song Que stood up, thought for a moment and shook his head: "Nowadays, disputes are arising in various parts of the Eastern Continent. Various forces in various places are recruiting people with general talents. The generals' children have been assigned by the family members. Our Lingnan Song family has also come to the northwest.
Just me.
After arriving in the northwest, I was alone in the city and had no friends, so I don't know if there are others in the city."
