Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 494 The Promised Land
Zhao Mu ignored Wang Yuyan.

He looked at Li Qinglu and asked: "Since Qinglu didn't come to stop me from conquering Xixia, why did you come back so early? Did you just bring your senior sister to me to solve the life and death talisman?"

Li Qinglu shook her head and said: "Of course not. I am coming back this time to go on an expedition with you. The main purpose is to supervise you and your Song Dynasty's army."

When Zhao Mu heard what Li Qinglu said, he felt puzzled. He asked: "Supervision? Supervision for what? Even if your Majesty sends a supervisory army, it won't be your turn."

Li Qinglu said with a smile: "You promised me before. You said that the army of the Song Dynasty had strict military discipline and that they would not kill innocent people indiscriminately when they arrived in Xixia Kingdom. They would not plunder people's property or rape women. Are you serious about this?"

Zhao Mu said with certainty: "Of course. This is the new military discipline I formulated for the Song Dynasty. However, this military discipline does not include gains on the battlefield. In the new military discipline I formulated for the Song Dynasty, although there is no killing of prisoners It's a rule, but soldiers also rely on killing the enemy's heads to collect military merits, so I can't guarantee how long you soldiers on the battlefield will survive. "

Li Qinglu sighed and said: "Oh! If it is just a fight on the battlefield, this is nothing. When the two armies are fighting, you and I will live and die. Either you will kill me, or I will kill you. Although your inducement method is a little cruel, it is understandable. But This surrendered city will not harm the people. If you break your promise, I will never see you again in this life!"

Li Qiu Shui also said at this time: "Yes, Xiao Mu'er, this is why Master Niang came here this time. If your Song army can really do this, when you come to the city, even if your good brother does not surrender, The master's wife will personally lead the warriors of Yipintang to open the city gate for you, but if you break the agreement and massacre the city wantonly, the master's wife will not let you."

Although Li Qiushui has always regarded human life as trivial, she is the Queen Mother of Xixia and her son is the head of Xixia Kingdom. She has been supported by the people of Xixia for many years, so she cannot remain indifferent.

Zhao Mu looked at the two of them, and then said firmly: "Master, Qinglu, don't worry. I will definitely abide by the agreement. And Xixia will also be my fiefdom in the future, and I will not kill my people. And wherever I go, I will post a notice to bring peace to the people. Anyone who commits crimes and harms people will be punished."

At this time, Li Qiushui took out a map from his arms and said: "Okay! Since my son is sincere, I will thank you for your brother. This is the land prepared for Xixia to move westward after my mother looked at it. . The land west of Xingxiu Sea and south of Qingtang belongs to us, what do you think?"

Zhao Mu nodded and said: "Yes! It does not conflict with the territory of the Song Dynasty. Since the master's wife wants it, then he will take the child and give it to the master's wife. Moreover, the various tribes of Tubo are now scattered. If the brother still has the ambition, he can also go south to attack the chieftains of each tribe. , expand the territory.”

Zhao Mu looked at Li Qiushui's map and then took a look.

Zhao Mu replied: "It's natural. As long as my brother returns to the Song Dynasty, the territory of Tubo will be large enough to accommodate my brother and the people of Dangxiang."

Zhao Mu said: "Haha, my brother is willing to return the Han land to me, so I have to thank him. A little land is just a piece of work. Besides, the child is generous to others."

Li Qiushui said: "That's good! The master's wife will be waiting for you in Lingzhou City. By the way, the promise you made to your brother to establish a separate Xixia Kingdom before is still counted?"

When Li Qiushui heard that Zhao Mu had agreed, she said, "Then I will thank you for your brother as my mother."

Li Qinglu sighed at this time and said: "Oh! This is the best result. I will accompany you on this expedition, and I can also use my identity as a princess to persuade you to surrender. It is a fact that the Song Dynasty will devour me, the Xia Dynasty. All we can do now is to minimize the casualties of the people and soldiers, and end this war as soon as possible, so that you can have enough energy to deal with Daliao in the north. "

Li Qiushui added: "This Qingtang land was originally the land of Tuyuhun in the former dynasty. It is also the hometown of the Dangxiang people. There are abundant water and grass here. Even if the people are relocated, I believe the people of Dangxiang will not object if they return to their homeland. You My brother plans to build a new capital on the old capital of Tuyuhun to reestablish the Xixia Kingdom, and it will not conflict with your Song Dynasty territory."

Zhao Mu looked at Li Qinglu and Li Qiu Shui, he raised his hands and said, "Master's wife, Qinglu is so generous, Zhao Mu thanks the people of both countries." After saying this, Zhao Mu leaned down and bowed.

Li Qinglu rolled her eyes at Zhao Mu, and then said: "Forget it, you don't want to take advantage of it. If you are so kind, you should marry me back properly, and then build an alliance with me in Daxia. And Not starting this war."

After hearing his wife's words, Zhao Mu just smiled awkwardly. After discussing with everyone, Li Qiushui and Zhao Mu did not delay.

Zhao Mu went back to his house to sleep. He wanted to be energetic enough for the swearing-in meeting early tomorrow morning.

And Li Qiushui immediately returned to Xixia Kingdom.

Li Qiushui sneaked into the Song Dynasty this time to spy on the military situation. After she saw the strict military appearance of the Song Dynasty army on the border, she already knew that the Song Dynasty was no longer what it used to be, and it was definitely no match for Xixia. So now she is ready to surrender.

When she returned this time, she assisted her son, the King of Xixia, and began to make early preparations for moving the capital. Then began to mobilize the Xixia army.

He left all the troops loyal to his son around the capital, waiting to surrender to Zhao Mu. And those who were not very loyal to the King of Xixia were the old nobles of the party. Li Qiushui pushed them up. Use the help of Song Dynasty to kill all these people. This can not only eliminate internal troubles for his son, but also ensure that his country is forever stable.

Li Qinglu and Wang Yuyan also continued to wait in the inn.

Li Qinglu also made arrangements for Wang Yuyan. After she and Zhao Mu leave tomorrow, Abi will go to A'Zhu and bring Wang Yuyan into Zhao Mu's house. Then after Zhao Mu came back, he arranged their marriage.

After Li Qingluo solved the talisman of life and death, she didn't stay much, but went directly south to Mantuo Villa. She and Duan Lang agreed that if Duan Lang had free time, they would have a tryst every six months.

The night passed quickly.

Zhao Mu got up from Mu Wanqing's body early.

Then the four of them, Mei Lan, Zhu Ju, washed him and then started to change his clothes.

This time Zhao Mu still wore the Taizu Golden Armor given to him by Zhe Zong. In addition to the Taizu Golden Armor, he also had a Tongguang Sword on his waist.

After all preparations were made, Cong Longxuan had already taken Zhao Mu's mount Zhu Tianlong and was waiting at the entrance of Prince Qi's Mansion for a long time.

After Zhao Mu went out, Cong Long Xuan leaned down directly, and then let Zhao Mu step on her shoulders and get on the horse.

The four of them, Mei Lan, Zhu Ju and others, went out with the army and mounted their horses separately.

Cong Longxuan looked at Zhao Mu and said, "I wish you victory in this battle!"

Zhao Mu said: "Master Xuan, I am the guardian of this Song Dynasty. And I will leave my home to you."

Cong Longxuan said to Zhao Mu with official courtesy: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to my command by taking the official position!"
