Overturning the Liangshan of the Water Margin, I am the master

() Song and Qing treated Xixia and Jin with completely different methods.

The Kingdom of Jin has a vast territory, and it will take a lot of financial and material resources to destroy it. With Liangshan's current strength, it is not suitable for launching such a large-scale battle, so for now, it is better to let it continue indefinitely. good.

But Xixia was different. Song and Qing wanted to completely occupy it, open the road to the Western Regions, and hold the Hexi Corridor in their hands.With Liangshan's current military strength, in fact, it might not be the same as in the attack. No matter what kind of troops are in custody, they can't resist a blast of artillery.

But when it's over?No nation has ever been completely wiped out through war, so if Xixia is captured by force alone, what you get will be a chaotic enclave, let alone long-term stability.

It is true that Li Renai killed his father, but very few people know about it, and he inherited the throne as the crown prince, which can be called justified. Except for Li Renzhong and Li Renli, they almost all support it he.

On the day Li Renai usurped the throne, Li Renzhong was killed by Li Renai.Although Li Renli escaped, his life was not easy. It is said that he is almost like a primitive person now.

Based on various information, Song Qing decided to adopt a multi-pronged strategy to conquer Xixia.

First of all, Yanqing and his wife were looking for a breakthrough internally, using Li Renai's father-killing as an excuse to instigate as much as possible against the tribe in Xixia who was dissatisfied with Li Renai.

On the other hand, Song Qing sent a letter to Zhuo Puba, the living Buddha of Tubo, requesting Tubo to send troops to fight against Xixia.There was a precedent for this kind of thing in the early Song Dynasty. In addition, Xixia is also a Buddhist country, and the living Buddhas of Tubo still have a certain influence there.

Zhuopuba has sent someone to reply to Song Qing, and will persuade the Tubo nobles to gather troops to help Liangshan conquer Xixia.

The last is Yue Fei's frontal troops. In order to win this battle, Song Qing will increase troops to Linzhou one after another, initially setting the total strength at about 30.

This battle can be said to be the largest battle launched after Liangshan entered the Central Plains, because this is no longer simply regaining lost ground. In the eyes of the Xixia people, it can be regarded as an invasion.

The army was led by Yue Fei, Hua Rong, and Yang Yizhong.

However, the specific date for dispatching troops has not been fixed, because it depends on what kind of momentum Yan Qing and his wife can create, only when there is chaos there, Yue Fei will have an excuse to send troops.

Although Luoyang has not announced to the world to send troops to Xixia, the various abnormal behaviors of Liangshan troops still attracted the attention of Li Ren'ai from Xixia.

In fact, since Zhu Wu was not retained last time, Li Ren'ai had been guarding against Liang Shan's revenge, and at the same time wanted to find a chance to make peace with Liang Shan. After all, Liang Shan's firearms were not something they could defeat the enemy.

It's a pity that Song Qing's eyes were on Xixia, so he ignored him at all, and spies sent a lot.

After feeling that Liang Shan might use troops against him, Li Ren'ai mobilized troops to defend Hengshan, and at the same time sent envoys to Luoyang, both with the intention of probing and hoping to make Liang Shan withdraw his order at the last moment.

Li Ren'ai shouted that there are people who are not afraid of Liangshan, but in fact she is still deeply afraid of Liangshan's sharp firearms.

At this time, Yanqing and his wife had arrived in Heishan. Although there was a mountain in the name of the place, there was no mountain here, but the station of the West Xia Weifu Army Division.

In fact, after Li Ren'ai ascended the throne, there was already a cleansing process, and the chief generals of all major military divisions were replaced by his own direct descendants, but of course nothing is absolute.

The headquarters of the Weifu Army Division is located in the Hetao Plain. The Yellow River is full of harm and only benefit, which refers to this place.So this can be said to be one of the main grain producing areas of Xixia.

But this is also the closest place to the Kingdom of Jin. Because of the importance of the geographical location, the generals guarding this place must be from the royal family, and there are also heavy troops stationed here.

The chief general of Weifu Army Division is Li Xueer's uncle, Li Qianjing.

Official Li Qianjing paid homage to King Zhao, and he had been staying in the capital all the time, but he didn't know if he didn't want to serve his nephew the emperor, so he took the initiative to ask Wei Fu to be transferred.

Li Ren'ai also had a headache for this uncle, because this uncle had a high prestige in the Dangxiang clan, so he didn't use it or guard against it.

So for the uncle's request, he readily agreed, not for anything else, just to keep out of sight and out of mind.

Li Qianjing treated Li Xueer very well. Before that, Li Xueer had contacted him, but the old prince's attitude was a bit confusing, so after Yan Qing and Li Xueer sneaked into Xixia, they came straight to him.

Although Li Xueer has become Yan Qing's wife, she hasn't learned any of Liang Shan's work experience. When she arrived in Montenegro, she was going to see her uncle Li Qianjing, but Yan Qing held her back.

Li Xueer looked at her husband inexplicably, obviously wanting to ask, we are here to look for him, we are already there, why don't we go see him?

Yan Qing didn't know how to explain it to his wife. People's hearts are separated by belly. After such a long time, who knows if Li Qianjing will change?And this old guy's attitude has always been intriguing, so don't let him sell you if he is so reckless.

Yan Qing could understand his wife's urgency to see her relatives, so she had no choice but to say: "Don't worry, there are people from us here, let's contact each other first, then find a place to rest, refresh our minds, and then go see you again." Uncle is not too late"

Since the young couple entered the territory of Xixia, they have disappeared without a trace, how can it be described in one word?Especially Li Xueer, who was spoiled and spoiled since childhood.

Hearing what Yan Qing said, Li Xueer only thought that her husband was hurting her, so she couldn't help but smile sweetly, and agreed to Yan Qing's request.

Liangshan spies have special contact points in various places. Long before the Song and Qing Dynasties decided to invade Xixia, Liangshan spies had integrated into all walks of life in Xixia.

Following Zhu Wu's instructions, Yan Qing easily found an inn run by Liang Shan's spy.

Montenegro is a typical military town. Most of the towns are Tuoba people who are half-soldiers and half-herders. There are also residents of Tubo, Han, and Uyghur ethnic groups. do business.

After setting up his wife, Yan Qing called the local responsible undercover leader, wanting to find out what happened to Li Qianjing recently.

Knowing that Yan Qing was coming, the local spies also worked hard.

The leader of the dark probe pondered for a moment, and then said: "I didn't find anything else, but recently there was a leader of the Mongolian Kelei tribe as a guest here. The Mongolian seems to have come to seek refuge and brought a lot of people with him."

Li Qianjing's guests have nothing to do with him, the main thing is whether he has any intention of helping him.

Yan Qing let the dark head go ahead, pondered for a moment, got up and went outside, told his wife not to disturb his wife, and then he walked to Li Qianjing's house alone.

Yan Qing is cautious by nature, especially with his wife by his side, he will not let her be in danger.

At this time, Yan Qing was completely dressed as a Xixia person, wearing a wide white robe, and the bamboo hat on her head covered most of her face.

When he came outside Li Qianjing's mansion, he told the guard that he was a distant relative of King Zhao, and asked the guard to report quickly.

Yan Qing was handsome, with a short beard on his chin, looking quite powerful.So the guard didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly reported in, but after the report, he remembered to ask, what is the name of this prince's relative?

At this time, Li Qianjing was receiving Tuoli from the Mongolian Kelei tribe in the mansion.

This Tuli was originally a great Khan of the Kret tribe of Mongolia. After inheriting his father's Khan position, he always felt that his other brothers wanted to miss his position, so he raised his butcher knife to his brothers and killed them with great joy. .

His uncle Juerhan couldn't stand it any longer, raised troops and defeated him in one fell swoop, and drove him out of the Kelei Ministry.

Tuoli, who had nowhere to go, had to take refuge in Xixia temporarily, but he had already sent his only remaining younger brother to the Naiman tribe to borrow troops. According to his words, he would fight back sooner or later to get back what he lost.

Li Qianjing's warm hospitality to Tuoli certainly has his own agenda.

In fact, he was very clear about Li Renai's murder of his brother Li Ganshun, but he always pretended not to know anything, this was to confuse Li Renai, and at the same time to better hide his ambition.

Who doesn't want to be emperor?Why does it have to belong to that little bastard Li Renai?

Li Qianjing knew for a long time that the niece who became Liang Shan's daughter-in-law would definitely not give up, but in order to use Liang Shan's hand to achieve her goal, so she was vague on this matter, hoping that Liang Shan could give him a satisfactory result. answer.

As long as Liang Shan promises to kill Li Ren'ai, the position in the Xingqing Mansion is his own, and he will do his best to assist Liang Shan.And Tuoli will also join in as his ally.

This world is like this, there is never a free lunch.

Li Qianjing was having a drink with Tuoli, when he heard that he had a distant relative, he couldn't help but be taken aback, he had many relatives, and Tuoba's surname has blossomed and scattered leaves for so many years, so many relatives they don't even know up.

He thought he was here to fight Qiufeng, and was about to order someone to send him away, when his heart suddenly moved. After asking about the person's appearance in detail, Li Qianjing knew that it might be his niece and son-in-law, because he knew Yanqing.

He complained to Tuoli, and got two dancers to accompany Tuoli, while he went to the side hall and asked his subordinates to invite Yanqing in.

Li Qianjing's acting skills can be said to be very good. When he saw that it was Yan Qing who came, a look of surprise appeared on his face. He took two steps and grabbed Yan Qing's arm, and said excitedly: "It really is you, these two years have passed Okay? How about Xueer? Why didn’t you come together? You don’t know! I’ve been thinking about you all the time for the past two years, it’s great to see you again.”

Yan Qing was so enthusiastic that she couldn't accept it, she bowed and said: "I haven't greeted my uncle yet, don't blame uncle, Xueer came with me, but the journey was tiring, and she is resting at the inn, I will bring her back tomorrow see uncle"

Li Qianjing pretended to be angry and said: "Why do you still stay at the inn here? Do you still see me as an uncle? Tell me where she is? I will send someone to pick her up right away."

"Uncle's kindness, nephew and son-in-law appreciate it, but Xue'er has already slept, so it's still tomorrow!"

"Oh! That's it, that's good! I'll send someone to pick it up tomorrow, so why are you here this time...?"

After Li Qianjing finished speaking, he looked at Yan Qing pretending to be puzzled.
