Zhang Qi put these aside in an instant, looked at Zhao Xu's relaxed and freehand side face, and said: "Official, the Xia people's 'peace letter' is nothing, it probably means, it is peace talks, we will go back, put back Wei Minga Bury and others, the two countries will rebuild the old friendship, and they will not fight." The minister judged that they just wanted to appease us for the time being, delaying time, and had no intention of really negotiating peace. ”

The battle of Western Xia was indeed broken, and the Great Song Dynasty hit the doorstep, but the Western Xia did not despair, Xingqing Mansion was still there, and they were still looking forward to the rescue of the Liao people.

Zhao Xu nodded and said, "They want time, and so do we." Stabilize the results of this battle, rectify the army and adjust the deployment, at most in five days, whether it is the Xia people and dogs jumping over the wall in a hurry, or the Liao people interfering, we can calmly deal with it. ”

Zhang Qi also thought about it this way, and said: "Official, judging from Xu Shangshu's letter, the Liao people have no intention of gathering troops, and it seems that they are indeed dragged down by the domestic rebellion. ”

Zhao Xu looked up at the sky, the sky in the northwest was really bright, and his eyes were full of starlight.

He felt a little emotion in his heart, but also a little lucky.

This timing is really great!

But if the Western Xia were a little smarter, or the Liao people were not so chaotic, the situation in this battle would not be like this!

This battle, if you think about it, is a fluke.

The Western Xia side is desperately attacking the city? The small Pingxia City lost nearly half of its troops? Seventy or eighty thousand!

And on his side, the monarch and the minister are united? Good generals use their lives? It's hard to win!

"It's really beautiful......"

Zhao Xu looked at the sky? I couldn't help it, and said proudly.

Although Zhang Qi didn't think so much about Zhao Xu? Looking up at the sky? The smile did not speak.

Zhao Xu took a few steps and said, "Take this opportunity to completely set the framework of 'military reform', especially the military rank?" Title? There is no need to discuss it again, this big victory is enough to gag the mouth of the imperial court. ”

Zhao Xu has always considered restoring some of the military systems of the Han Dynasty, such as giving knights to military generals who have made great contributions.

But in the court, it has been blocked? And the opposition from the government and the opposition is very high.

Heavy literature and suppression of martial arts, is the Great Song Dynasty Liguo? One of the most fundamental national policies!

Zhang Qi looked at Zhao Xu's side face, can he learn from these simple conversations? Realizing some of Zhao Xu's ambitions that he couldn't hold back, he silently groaned for a while? Sidestep the topic? Said: "Official? Military reports from all over the country show that except for the area around Xingqing Mansion and the remote Liangzhou, the important places of the Xia people have been occupied by our army, and the next question is how to consolidate it......"

Zhao Xu already had an idea, paced, and said: "For the time being, we will use the army to suppress it, and then let the court discuss it after we have negotiated with Xia Liao." Militarily speaking, the northern roads were merged, leaving the five roads for the time being, and these recovered cities were assigned to these five routes. By the way, Chen Pi, send a message to the imperial court, and ask Zhang Xianggong to convene governors from all walks of life to discuss matters of peace and security. ”

"Yes." Tangerine peel should be.

Zhang Qi listened, and then said: "Official, it's better to come first, all armies must reorganize all armies, and all roads in the north are the top priority." ”

Zhao Xu snorted and said: "It is indeed necessary to seriously sort out the 'military politics', this time, it is not only the problems of the south and the north, but also the general planning of the army. The forbidden army is the forbidden army, how can the forbidden army run around? ”

The army of the Great Song Dynasty, the regular army are all the emperor's personal guards - the forbidden army, there is no national army!

As for the Xiang Army, the Fan Army, not the 'regular army'.

Zhang Qi became more and more clear, thought for a while, and said: "Yes, after returning to Beijing, the Privy Council and the Ministry of War will jointly discuss and submit it to the official family. ”

Zhao Xu snorted, these small pieces of work cannot be decided in a few words, and they have to be sorted out and promoted after returning to Beijing.

Sai Binh Province.

Xiping Mansion is also known as Lingzhou, and now Empress Dowager Liang, Li Qianshun and others are stationed here, and they have not returned to Xingqing Mansion.

It's not that they don't want to go back, they can't go back, as soon as they leave, the morale of the army will inevitably collapse, and the Song people outside are eyeing each other, they are sparing their lives, and they can also distinguish the importance of the matter.

If Xiping Mansion is gone, then Xingqing Mansion is a matter of time.

Empress Dowager Liang and Li Qianshun are now worried all day long and can't sleep at night.

The cavalry of the Song army has already come, a total of 30,000, often appearing around Xiping Mansion, attacking the city and plundering the land, and there is bad news almost every day in other places, which makes it difficult for the Empress Dowager Liang and Li Qianshun to sit still.

Wei Ming Ashan came in from outside, and without waiting for him to salute, Empress Dowager Liang hurriedly said: "The Qing family is exempt from courtesy, how is the whole army, is there any news from the Liao people?" ”

Wei Ming Ah Shan's expression was solemn, and he said: "Niangniang, Your Majesty, there are currently 30,000, but the people in the city are panicking, and they have to desert every day, and Xingqing Mansion has repeatedly urged Niangniang and His Majesty to return to Beijing." Youzhou, Xiazhou and other cities were all occupied by the Song people. The news from the Liao people, they said, asked us to resist, did not say anything else. ”

Empress Dowager Liang looked startled, jumped up, and said, "What does it mean that you want us to resist?" Do they want to watch me die in Great Xia? We forgot, can they be good for the Liao people? Will the Song people let them go? The sixteen states of the clouds, but the ...... that the Song people are thinking about"

In addition to this kind of territorial dispute, the root lies in geopolitics, and the last country will not easily agree to the destruction of any of the three countries.

Li Qianshun's face was calm, and his heart was flustered.

Until now, he still doesn't understand that the Song people have been laying out since more than half a year ago, and it is clear that they want to destroy Xia!

Wei Ming Ah Shan was calm, he knew very well in his heart that Empress Dowager Liang and Li Qianshun were just frightened, and if you think about it carefully, the Song people have no ability to destroy Xia at all!

At the same time, judging from the various actions of the Song people, it seems that he has no intention of destroying Xia.

Wei Ming Ashan didn't break it, and said with a calm expression: "Niangniang, Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the Liao State still wants to watch from the wall, their envoys have rushed to the Song Kingdom, what we have to do now is to wait." Wait for the Song people to make further moves, wait for the reaction of the Liao State, and wait for us to be ready, and the morale of the army is stable. ”

Ashan's words were full of words and very thoughtful.

Empress Dowager Liang, Li Qianshun suddenly felt comfortable when she heard this, at this time, only Wei Ming Ahsan could give them comfort and a sense of security.

Empress Dowager Liang took Li Qianshun's hand, nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll wait!" ”

They can't do much more than wait now.

Seeing this, his eyes flashed slightly.

Now he holds the military power, controls the death of Li Qianshun and the Empress Dowager Liang, and is in fact a high and powerful position!

Wei Ming Ashan's expression was solemn, but he was thinking about how to continue to control the military power and consolidate his power after he returned.

He quietly glanced at the little emperor, who he was now prefering, who was the real master of the Xia Kingdom!

At this time, outside the city, the cavalry of the two brothers in the planting division was wandering around, attacking the cities and villages of the Xia Kingdom, and destroying everything that could be destroyed.

At this time, the Liao envoy, Xiao Tiancheng, was on his way to Qingzhou.

He lost his previous calmness, and now he was in a hurry.

Da Liao did not allow the Song State to destroy Xia!

Song and Xia must continue to hold each other, so that the Great Liao can firmly sit on the throne, and the Song Dynasty cannot become the uncontrollable rival of the Great Liao!

Especially at the critical moment of the Great Liao Rebellion!
