Zhao Xu did not exit, which was to maintain the prestige of Zhang Qi's privy envoy, but also to abide by his promise not to interfere in this military incident.

After some arrangement, Zhao Xu and Zhang Qi left the staff room and came to the back hall.

Zhang Qi sat opposite Zhao Xu and said: "Official, Zong Ze's destination is the Great Wall Ridge, staring at the Jianing Division, Chu You's destination is Huizhou, staring at the Xishou Baotai Division, and the Jianzhong is in the Jinning Army at the moment, aiming at the military situation of the Zuo Xiangsi and the ministers waiting for Pingxia City, and choose the opportunity to fight!" ”

Zhao Xu drank tea, his expression moved slightly, and said, "This is different from the previous strategy of the Qing family?" ”

Zhang Qi's expression was solemn, his eyes were blazing, and he said, "Yes." Shaanxi Sixth Road carried out nearly half a year of disturbing and shallow attack, not only to harass and weaken the Xia Kingdom, but also to confuse them. ”

Zhao Xu suddenly realized and said, "This time, do you want to go deeper?" ”

Zhang Qi said: "The minister has this idea. ”

Zhao Xu's eyes narrowed slightly, took the map on the side, and pointed with his finger: "Six of the twelve military divisions of the Xia people have come, and the other six are mostly empty, if it is a surprise attack, it may be of great use!" Yinzhou, Xiazhou, Youzhou, Yanzhou, Weizhoui, and then Lanzhou, and even Liangzhou, if they are properly planned, they can attack in an all-round way......"

Zhang Qi was slightly shocked in his heart, and watched Zhao Xu point his fingers.

These states? All at the junction of Song and Xia? It is also the richest place for the Xia people, and the others? Except for Xingqing Mansion? It's either a prairie or a desert!

Zhao Xu looked at the map and didn't speak. He's already excited? Honestly, he covets these states? Except for the carriage of Tiandu Mountain? That Yanzhou is an important salt-producing land, Yinzhou, and Xiazhou are even more rich and strategic!

Did the Song Dynasty get it? Strong itself does not say? It can also greatly weaken Western Xia and completely take the initiative!

Zhao Xu's visit to this trip is not as simple as boosting morale!

Although he was excited, Zhao Xu was still very calm!

He knows very well that the current Great Song Dynasty? If you don't have the ability to destroy Xia, even if you occupy these state capitals, you may not be able to do it completely!

"Are you sure?" Zhao Xu looked at Zhang Qi quietly.

Zhang Qi was shocked by Zhao Xu's appetite? The heart has been silent for a long time? He said softly: "Is there any, you have to try to find out." Official? Want to give it a try? ”

Zhao Xu took a sip of tea? Smiling on your face? The heart is racing.

If it can really be done, it is not just as simple as opening up the territory and expanding the territory, the Song and Xia Dynasty will be completely reversed, and the Song Dynasty will no longer have to worry about the Xia people!

In short, if you really do it, the benefits are beyond words!

After a long time, Zhao Xu raised his head and smiled: "I don't want to try, I must be sure." Shaanxi Sixth Road, plus Hedong Road, is all under the command of Zhang Xianggong. Chen Pi, bring a sword. ”

Chen Pi glanced at Zhang Qi, turned around and went out, and quickly brought a sword.

Zhao Xu stood up, took it, and pulled it out violently, there was some rust on the blade, but it was still bright and translucent.

Zhao Xu's face was serious, he slammed it shut, looked at Zhang Qi, and said in a deep voice: "This is Emperor Taizu's sword, Emperor Taizong's Northern Expedition failed, and he hated it deeply. ”

Zhang Qi's face changed suddenly, he looked at Zhao Xu, knelt on his knees, raised his hands, and said loudly: "Minister, Zhang Qi has the order!" ”

Zhao Xu put the sword in Zhang Qi's hand, helped him up, and said, "I am in Qinzhou, waiting for the good news of the Qing family!" ”

Zhang Qi stood up with his sword in his hand, his expression was unprecedentedly serious, and said, "Yes, please wait for the good news of the ministers!" ”

Although Zhang Qi said this, he was also nervous in his heart.

What he wanted before was to fight the Western Xia as much as possible and gain three to five years for the 'New Deal' on the Great Song Dynasty.

But Zhao Xu obviously didn't think about it, he had to prepare for the destruction of Xia!

Chen Pi watched from the sidelines, secretly frightened.

As a result, Zhang Qi directly controlled the military power in the north, and the number of troops he held was as high as 300,000!

Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, there has been no such thing!

He was very worried in his heart, Zhang Dian in the court gradually took power, with the temperament of an official, Zhang Dian would sooner or later become an unprecedented minister in the Great Song Dynasty, the kind with real power!

Chen Pi is not worried that these two brothers will rebel, but if this continues, there will be more and more 'powerful ministers', generals with heavy troops!

Even if Chen Pi hadn't read much, he still couldn't help but worry.

He glanced at Zhao Xu, and didn't dare to say more.

Later generations studied the Battle of Pingxia City, and when Zhao Xu rarely gave Shang Fang the sword, in the complicated history books, wild histories, personal biographies, etc., only sporadic records of Chen Pi's later years were found:

He said: It may be done. The emperor said: Or the word can't be. Worried. Yes, give Taizu a sword, and take charge of 300,000 soldiers. Emperor does not doubt it.

Later generations excavated the tomb of Zhangqi, and found some rare well-preserved moments, which left such a passage: Today, on the mind, ancient and modern first, back and forth. and courage, since the Three Emperors, unsurpassed. The battle of Pingxia is also the beginning.

……

On the third day of the siege of Pingxia City, Zhang Ji left Qinzhou and went to Gyeongju on the front line, and further directly commanded the frontline battle.

Zhao Xu didn't stop, the Imperial City Division, Qingtianwei's operation has increased unprecedentedly, and on the Song-Xia border, the intelligence line within Western Xia is operating with maximum strength.

All kinds of news gathered in Qinzhou and relayed to various places.

The offensive and defensive battle of Pingxia City continued, and the Xia army attacked frantically at any cost.

And the queen mother of Western Xia, holding the little emperor hostage, civil and military officials, etc., is not slow, and it is no more than a hundred miles away from Pingxia City.

But this Empress Dowager Liang seemed to be waiting for the news of the capture of Pingxia City, so she actually stopped for a night and held a banquet, as if Pingxia City could be broken tonight.

Empress Dowager Liang is only forty years old, and she still has charm, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows are full of irresistible majesty.

Most of the people present are party nobles, the little emperor Li Qianshun is already sixteen years old, his expression is peaceful, with a smile on his face, there is no loneliness or resentment, not at all like a puppet emperor who has been a puppet emperor for more than ten years.

He sat at the front of the feast, drank very little, and did not speak much.

He quietly observed everyone present, and looked at Li Qianshun from time to time.

At this time, he suddenly discovered that the little emperor was definitely not simple, and it was not ordinary people who could be so forbearing!

Who in Xia Guo didn't know that the little emperor was actually against sending troops, but from beginning to end, he didn't say a word, and when he arrived here, he also smiled and feasted, without the slightest anxiety and impatience.

Weiming Ah Shan looked at the Empress Dowager Liang again, the Empress Dowager looked complacent, drank a little too much, and still looked at the song and dance, her face was full of joy.

At this moment, a simple-clad guard quietly came in, and behind Wei Ming Ashan, he whispered, "Wei Mingbai is coming back." ”

Wei Ming Ashan's face changed suddenly, and then he waved his hand flatly.

The man quietly withdrew.

Wei Ming Ahsan tried his best to suppress the panic in his heart, and silently picked up his wine glass.

For such a long time, it was easy for him to find out who wrote those pieces of paper sent by the Song people.

As long as Wei Mingbai is not stupid, he can also guess that it is him!

Therefore, Wei Mingbai must not come back!

Weiming Ahsan knew very well in his heart that this was the Song people warning him.

The corners of his face twitched, his heart heavy, thinking of a countermeasure.

The people present were immersed in the banquet, and almost no one noticed his strangeness.

Except for the little emperor, Li Qianshun.
