I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 673 So What About The Bloodthirsty King
There were not many people left in the stronghold of the horse bandits. In line with the principle of conserving firearms, Wang Shunchen's team sneaked in and killed them.

It is said to be a stronghold, but in fact it is still on the wasteland. The camp is very solid. It has been a few years, and it is a style that Wang Shunchen has never seen.

There is a water source, but unfortunately the water source is not large, and there is no possibility of serving as a military depot or a transfer point.

Wang Shunchen commanded the soldiers to pack up the stocks of the horse bandits, together with pack horses, camels, and war horses.

This is just great.Wang Shunchen didn't understand at first that the officials asked them to act as a caravan without bringing any goods, but now he understood that the officials were letting them touch the goods by themselves.

"Lieutenant, why do you want to bury some of the goods? We have livestock, and it doesn't affect our actions. When we encounter horse bandits, we can just throw them away. Besides, I can't wait to come to the horse bandits again. There are even spare supplies along the way." No need. There is food and drink."

"Save some for the brothers behind. Bury it well, mark it, and mark the water source."

They are the first team, and Wang Shunchen is going to sweep them all the way... The brothers behind have no credit, if there is no spoils to share, he will definitely be beaten by the four of them.

Although everyone regarded the guide as a dead person, they didn't realize it at all and were very excited.But no, there are so many goods, and such a powerful team.He was able to post on this road for a few more years.

He yelled to show everyone the way, and even offered to contact the next horse bandit he was familiar with...

Zhao Xi understands that compared with horse bandits and road bandits, the army is more professional.Therefore, he was not worried about this group of soldiers equipped with gunpowder, and he was even more worried that his cryptic orders would wipe out the people in that area.

The existence of this road was no surprise to Zhao Xi.

It's just that he can't be sure how long ago the market towns and cities in the later generations of this road began to gather people.

If so, his order will return this place to ancient times again.

In fact, according to Zhao Xi's deduction, this should be inevitable.

From the information obtained from the Imperial City Division, combined with some records and materials he read, there are definitely traces of human existence.

The information was sent by someone sent by Sima Guang. It is estimated that Sima Guang knew about this action of the court and was very disgusted, and even the officials did not want to see it.

Between the lines of these materials, Zhao Xi saw some records.There are indeed people smoking.

The earliest is the Han Dynasty, and later the Sui Dynasty also has sporadic records.

In the previous dynasty, that area was mostly under the rule of Tubo, and no one had recorded it in the previous dynasty.

However, business has never stopped.

Zhao Xi’s understanding of the Silk Road has always been the Hexi Corridor, that is, starting from Qinzhou (later Tianshui City), along Lanzhou, Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Dunhuang, leading directly to the countries of the Western Regions. Food.

I can't tell, and the name of the west at this time is also very confusing.What Seljuk Turks, what Byzantium, what Roman Empire, what big cannibals, Persians.It's very messy, and these guides are also called very messy...~The names of the guides are probably called according to the habits of the country.

In the late period of the former dynasty, due to the decline of the Central Plains dynasty’s control over the Hexi Corridor, the Silk Road was cut off, or it was no longer directly connected.

In the middle, because Xizhou Huihe and Dangxiang people made money blocking the road, the merchants in Xifan had to find another way, and found another way in the south.

This is what Zhao Xi originally thought, but judging from the data, this road has always existed for a long time.

It indicates that humans have been living in this area for a long time.

Zhao Xi's order is to clean up all living things that are not in the army...~
I really don't know what this group of killers will do!

To say that Zhao Xi didn't feel anything about Sima Guang pointing at Sang and scolding Huai like this, that's impossible.It's even more impossible to say that he has a passion for women's benevolence.

Military orders are not changed overnight!
Besides, Zhao Xi still has something to say about doing things cheaply, so they can do well accordingly.

"Officials, in fact, when they first sent out the Pathfinder team, they could have dispatched additional Imperial City Division scouts, and let them deliver information to the court in order. In this way, the officials don't have to worry so much."

During the several discussions, Fu Bi was worried when he saw the officials.I know that I am worried about the Pathfinder team.

That's right, it's been more than two months, and according to the original plan, the last team of Pathfinders has already entered that unknown environment.

"Fuxiang, I'm not worried about them...~ Nuo, take a look."

Zhao Xi passed the information sent by Sima Guang to Fu Bi, and he had highlighted some of the contents.

Fu Bi looked at it very seriously.

"So what? The officials are the kings of my Great Song Dynasty, not the kings of Seljuk, Persia, or Dashi. There is no need for the officials to worry about their lives!"

"Exploring the way this time is very important for Guochao! It is irreplaceable for Guochao to destroy Xixia! Officials must not have the kindness of women!"

There are just some sporadic records, and the records also show that there are only signs of human survival, or maybe it refers to caravans?
Even if there were settlers, from Fu Bi's point of view, they were nothing more than a transit point for merchants, or a stronghold for horse bandits and road thieves.

There's no reason to think too much about it.

Fu Bi didn't want his own king to be bloodthirsty, and he also didn't want his own king to hurt the spring and autumn, and the benevolence of a woman.

"Fuxiang, that's a record from the Han Dynasty or the Sui Dynasty. It's been hundreds of years, a trade route that has never been abandoned, and I'm worried that it's no longer a sporadic population."

"I hope that this operation of Xia will be kept absolutely secret, and I also hope that there will no longer be any possibility of leaking information when the partial teacher passes by. Therefore, Pathfinder is not just a Pathfinder!"

This was an atmosphere close to chatting, and there was only Fu Bi alone.Zhao Xi didn't mind making things clear.

Since Sima Guang could guess his own thoughts, none of the ministers in the court could not understand.

As for these materials that record human activities, Zhao Xi really can't guarantee that Sima Guang will keep them secret. This is not within the scope of the secrecy laws.

"The official family..."

Fu Bi was a little uncertain for a moment...

"Officials, this road-finding operation is not the words of one official, it is my Great Song court, and it is a cabinet decision!"

Fu Bi figured it out!Generally speaking, since the official came to the throne, he has always maintained the reputation of being a sage and king.

Such an order really makes officials worry.

There's really no need to worry about such a big deal.The cabinet ministers can share it!
"Fuxiang, I'm not a benevolent king, so I wouldn't worry about some irrelevant people! So what if I have a reputation for bloodthirsty?"

"The official family was done by Song Zhongxing, and the ministers, workers and people all saw it! It is the duty of the courtiers to hide it from the venerable! Sima Jun is true, the old ministers will talk about it!"

Fu Bi soon understood the official's intentions.This is also understandable.

Doing so is not only related to the reputation of the officials, but also related to the secrecy of this marching road.
