Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 860

Even if Zhang Qiyuan said clearly that the Jurchens would really take advantage of the fire, his frankness won Li Qianshun's favor, which was very logical.

As long as normal people in power understand that diplomatic relations are nothing more than mutual use, there is nothing new, if you have value, then help, if you have no value, people will not mind sharing you.

The value of Xia's existence, just as determined in Li Deming's time, exists in the gap between the north and the south.Even if Li Yuanhao insisted on calling the Western Dynasty, it could not change the real situation. The reason why Xia was not destroyed by the Song Dynasty and could be frequently countered on a large scale was due to the powerful military oppression in the north.It made Da Song unable to concentrate his strength.

The reason why the Song Dynasty gained a strategic advantage over Xia was the decline of the northern regime, which gave the Song Dynasty a chance to carry out military deployment in an orderly manner.

Li Qianshun was very decisive. After judging the Jurchen's intentions, he immediately assembled a [-]-strong army and marched towards the outskirts of Pingqiang City with Ren Dejing, a former acquaintance of Xi'an Prefecture, as the leader and Li Liangfu as the commander.

Of course, Ren Dejing was just a guide and did not really reach the front line, but the 50 Xia Army was real. According to the military system of the Xia Army, there were [-] to [-] regular soldiers in the [-] army, which were used only to flatten Qiang City. It can be said that the momentum is quite grand, that is, the Empress Dowager Liang sent [-] troops, and it seems that the city can be filled with corpses.

However, Zhang Qiyuan gave Li Qianshun a free move, which made Li Qianshun very happy and treated him like a guest.

The weather in the northwest was fine, but suddenly the wind and cloud changed color, and the fiery red cloud in the sky was as bright as a drop of blood.

Tang Zhong has already returned to the court as a scholar of Xuanhe Palace, and the next step will definitely be of great use.That's right, I have been in Shaanxi for ten years, so I can't stay there forever, can I?It is really unreasonable not to give the two governments. The two governments have quotas for governing, and if they can't get in for the time being, then they will be given the Xuanhe Hall, which is equivalent to the treatment of the two governments.

As for the Six Departments of Shangshu, which holds the real power, it is the most powerful yamen outside the two prefectures. Tang Zhong has no family or faction, so naturally he cannot get involved.

Wang Shu returned to Shaanxi from Kaifeng, served as a Xuanfu envoy of the Sixth Route of Shaanxi as a Bachelor of Duanmingdian, indicating that the Song Dynasty had begun to launch the Northwest Strategy.

Officially, the northwest war was clouded, and the Jurchen who had just reached the North-South Alliance, the original escort army began to disband, and each went back to the prefecture for food, but under the circumstances, they were suddenly gathered again, causing the situation in the north to suddenly become tense.

Zong Liang has already returned to the imperial court. He is serving as a servant of the Baowen Pavilion, and he is also a messenger to the Huangsong Bank. He still follows Wang Xiu, and the Huangsong Bank is naturally looked after by Shen Mo and Fei Su.

He Wei was appointed as the magistrate of Shaanxi Xuanfu Division, and he went directly to Shaanxi to take up the post. The old man had been drinking for three days and almost lost his breath. Fortunately, his thirteen concubines found out and they came back to life.

However, He Laodao was worth it. His own good move back then, the youngest son followed Wang Xiu and silently saddled the horse, and finally had a result.Wang Xiu is an extremely personable minister, and Shen Mo is also listed in the sixth part of the Shangshu. With the two of them, his son has a bright future, and the He family is also a family of officials.

"My lord, Zhang Zichu's envoy to Dangxiang is really relying on his good words, and the leader of Dangxiang was actually sent troops to defeat Qiang City as he said." Zhong Lirui taunted for a while, but he couldn't help admiring Zhang Qiyuan in his heart. Is it wrong for Wang Xiu to let the tiger go back to the mountain?
Oh, it's really far-fetched to let the tiger go back to the mountain. Wang Xiu also made a lot of fuss, and the entire Song dynasty also tried its best. Zhang Qiyuan was transported to immortality, and finally escaped.

Wang Xiu had a half-smile, sat on the couch and sipped the group tea, put down the cup and said slowly: "How long do you think Pingqiang City can last?"

"A brigade is stationed, there is enough food and grass, and the party members are not capable of taking it down." Zhong Lirui said indifferently.

In other words, the upper brigade is a special establishment of the new military system, which exists independently of the army and only belongs to the military organization of the capital. Each brigade has no less than 6000 soldiers. The only directly affiliated upper brigade stationed in the Southwest Yi army of the Southern Guard has a strength of 3000. It is simply an army.

"Then how about sending a brigade to reinforce it?" Wang Xiu's eyes flickered, and her tone exuded infinite charm.

Zhong Lirui was stunned, and looked at Wang Xiu in surprise, there were only two soldiers in the Western Guard, how to support them?He couldn't help saying: "Pingqiang City has enough food and supplies, so there is no need to worry about it in a short period of time. This is a great opportunity. In case the other party besieges the city and sends reinforcements, our morale will be weakened. I hope you think twice."

Wang Xiu turned to look at Zong Liang. Seeing the constipated look on his face, he obviously wanted to say something, but he held back and didn't say it. He couldn't help laughing, and said playfully, "Brother, just say something."

Zong Liang swallowed, and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid the imperial court is deeply in chaos in the northwest, and the captives will take advantage of the opportunity in the north to make a profit. Mister has to guard against it."

Wang Xiu raised her eyebrows and said with a faint smile, "It's okay, I'm afraid he won't come."

Zong Liang felt a toothache. He has been away for more than three years, and he has made a leap in life knowledge, and he is more comfortable in handling government affairs, but he still cannot keep up with Wang Xiu's thinking, and he is always a beat behind.

Zhong Lirui glanced at Zong Liang, and said calmly: "It would be really weird if the captives didn't come, sir, they have already plotted against them."

"Oh, Mister has always been clever." Zong Liang felt that he was overthinking. Wang Xiu has not lost a single defeat so far, but he made impromptu decisions on the battlefield. How could he not expect Jurchens to interfere? That was the decision of the upper echelons of his family and country.

"What a clever plan, the eldest brother has been out for a few years, and he has learned to speak glibly. Thinking about it, I really shouldn't let you go!" Wang Xiu laughed half-jokingly.

Zhong Lirui looked at Zong Liang and said with a playful smile: "Well, what your lord said is that you should know the Jianyuan."

Zhijianyuan, that is Qingliu's job, Zong Liang gave Zhong Lirui a supercilious look, and greeted the eighteenth generation of this woman in his heart.

Zhong Lirui turned a blind eye, and said with a playful smile on his face: "It doesn't matter whether the captives join or not, my lord, I'm afraid I'm just going to travel alone."

"Those who achieve big things don't stick to small details, good use of troops is not limited to local areas, all major camps attack, step by step, step by step, I don't believe that you can't take down party members." Wang Xiu's face was very serious.

"A grown-up speaks loudly, but I'm not as good as a subordinate." The smile on Zhong Lirui's face gradually faded, and he became more serious.

Zong Liang was a little confused again, what are the husband and Zhong Lirui talking about?It was obviously not a good thing, but he hadn't been in contact with the key points for many years, and he couldn't figure it out, which made him a little uneasy when he was confused.

"My lord, I heard that Zhang Zichu is staying in the party for the time being. I'm afraid he will make a mess." Zhong Lirui said again. He is also in charge of the aircraft department and knows Zhang Qiyuan's whereabouts like the back of his hand.

"Then let him make a fuss." Wang Xiu said indifferently.
