Liangzhou City, the western military town of "the founding of Great Xia and Liang as an auxiliary county", and Liangzhou City, an important commercial port in the northwest, are quite pampered and humiliated at the moment.

The people are densely populated, the carriages and horses are staggered, the song blows the sun vertically and horizontally, through the first line in the vast desert, the throat of the five counties is heavy, the land is rich, the terrain is precipitous, the people are fierce, the Liangzhou fine cavalry is rampant all over the world, and it is far away from the border for more than 500 miles, the Gansu Military Division and Zhuo Luo and the Southern Military Division are stationed on the left and right, which is naturally impregnable.

Since the first year of Song Mingdao, Li Yuanhao captured Gansu and Liangzhou, and Hexi belonged to the territory of Western Xia, and it has been a hundred years since then, and there are almost no major wars around Liangzhou.

It is precisely because of the fact that in the past hundred years, the voice of Jin Ge has been almost ignored, and the life of the people has been extremely dull, and it seems that they can predict their lives as soon as they understand the reason.

The people were confused, and the business travelers who came and went were also surprised by the indifference of Liangzhou City, but under the calm surface, there was already an undercurrent surging and turbulent.

Especially those officials in the city who are familiar with military information, the Song army entered the Hulu River Valley, and it was unstoppable, and the Xingqing Mansion dispatched troops, and the people were panicked, and it was already a rumor.

Although the Song army temporarily stopped the offensive, everyone knew that it was a matter of time before the Song army attacked in a big way. They are now dealing with the Jurchens, and after that, it should be the destruction of the Xia people.

Under the pressure of the soldiers, some people are drunk and dreaming of death, escaping from reality, and some people are ready to fight to the death with the Song army and serve the king, and more people are unhurried, how to live their lives.

Anyway, life is hard enough.

In an official residence in the east city of Liangzhou City, Gao Fu, the criminal officer of Liangzhou Mansion, was serving tea and savoring it, and his eyes were not sweeping Wang Dajie dressed as a businessman in the audience.

said that he was a businessman, but in fact he was not, because this person had already identified himself, he was a messenger under the command of Wang Song, the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty and Shaanxi Xuanfu.

Wang Song commanded the army, the world is invincible, the Jurchens are all losing their armor, just Western Xia, how can they be their opponents!

Not to mention that the Song army had already captured Pingxia City and Xiao Pass, and the soldiers went out of the reward and moved to Xingqing Mansion.

Wang Dajie also served tea, sneering in his heart.

Gao Fu is just pretending. With his magnificent mansion, exquisite carpets, gold and silver on the table, fine wine from the Western Regions, and beautiful women around him, he would not be greedy for life and afraid of death, and he would roll out from here.

Since Jingkang three years, he entered the Wang Song shogunate, although there was a pause in the middle due to Wang Song's serious injury, but in total, it has been four years. In the four years of events, he was busy with trivial matters in the army, but he did not make great achievements.

Huang Zong, Li Ruoxu, Zhu Mengshuo, Wang Lun, not counting the Ma Kuo, all of them are in high positions and play a pivotal role, and they have been in the Xuanfu Division and have never come out.

Wang Song wanted to use troops in the northwest, he volunteered, came to Lanzhou City, pacified the crumbling Great Song Dynasty local government, and the loyal and righteous army mastered the local military and government, and then swept his eyes to the long Hexi corridor.

It is imperative for the Loyal and Righteous Army to restore the Western Xia, expedition to the Western Regions, and open up the Hexi Corridor.

If he can help Wang Song restore the Hexi Corridor, he will be satisfied.

"Gao Tongzhi, I don't know what you think about the suggestion the day before yesterday?"

Wang Dajie picked up the teacup and drank it to himself.

Gao Fu waved his hand slightly, and everyone next to him retreated together, leaving only the guards guarding the entrance of the lobby.

"Brother Wang, as a courtier of the Xia Kingdom, he should be loyal to the king and love the people. If you want to do this rebellious thing, if you don't pay attention to it, you will raid your family and exterminate your family, and you have to think carefully about it in the future. ”

"Gao Tongzhi, this is the original source. How can a dignified Chinese man act like a beast for a tiger!"

Wang Dajie said excitedly, his face was flushed, and his righteous indignation was fully displayed.

"Gao Tongzhi, the words are already below

After saying it, where to go, it is all up to you. The loyal and righteous army is strong and strong, and the Jurchens are frightened and vulnerable, and it is naturally not a problem to capture a mere Liangzhou city. However, when the army was approaching the city, Gao Tongzhi could lie down and be prosperous and rich, so he didn't dare to agree. ”

After speaking, Wang Dajie straightened up, made a gesture, and was about to say goodbye and leave.

The guard at the entrance of the lobby screamed, drew a knife, and stopped in front of Wang Dajie. Looking at his angry eyes, the clothes on his body are really Han Erlang.

"Gao Tongzhi, do you want to stay?"

Wang Dajie sneered softly, turned his head, and looked at Gao Fu on the high seat, his face was calm and unhurried.

"Wang Dajie, aren't you afraid that I will take you away, meet the prefect of Wuzang, and break your body into ten thousand pieces?"

Gao Fu was sitting precariously, his face was gloomy, and the malaise just now was gone.

These Song people bully people at every turn, which is really unpleasant. Don't they know whose one-third of an acre of land is here?

He also read the Song people's newspaper, and the situation was clear at a glance. The Song army is in full swing, and it is overwhelming, if you want to wave the troops of Western Xia, I am afraid that Western Xia will not be able to resist for long.

He just wants to suppress the momentum of these people and let him understand who is the master and who is the guest. If the guest and the host are transposed, where is there still a half-point negotiation advantage.

"Gao Tongzhi, we don't deal with each other for a day or two, if Wang is afraid of death, he won't come!"

Wang Dajie shouted angrily: "The so-called good birds choose trees to perch, good ministers choose the lord to do things, you are a dignified Chinese descendant, willing to drive for foreign races, help and abuse, and hate it deeply." Please do it quickly, and don't frown a little!"

The guard's eyes widened angrily, and he stepped forward and put the knife on Wang Dajie's neck, just waiting for the master's order, and he was going to kill the killer.

"Wang Dajie, can't you say a soft word?"

Gao Fu stared at Wang Dajie for a long time, and when he saw that he was not afraid at all, he couldn't help but spit out a sentence, not knowing whether it was self-deprecation or appreciation.

"Your people have caused trouble many times, and they have not been protected by this official. You should more or less give this official a face. ”

Since the newspaper was introduced to the Western Xia, the younger generation of Han Chinese flocked to it, and Chineseism, nationalism, and Huayi discrimination spread among the young Han people in the Western Xia, and even some party members were still interested in Chinese civilization.

After all, compared with the Tangut script, which has existed for less than a hundred years and has only 6,000 words, the Chinese culture is broad and profound, and the poetry and song are undoubtedly much stronger.

Societies, assemblies, and various small groups came into being, and it was inevitable that in a few days, they would organize demonstrations and demonstrations against the government.

A small newspaper can demagogue, which also makes him have to sigh that this person's heart is changing really fast.

"Gao Tongzhi, I was rude just now. I just told the truth in the next, and I hope that Gao Tongzhi will take precautions, don't miss the opportunity, and regret it. ”

Gao Fu waved his hand, and the young guard, dressed as Han, stepped back and put his knife back into its sheath.

"Brother Wang, please be seated."

Gao Fu's face softened, since the other party had already given the steps, he didn't have to dwell on these trivial details.

"Brother Wang, with all due respect, even if you are willing to do it anyway, what can you do if you have no military power and no selfish soldiers?"

Gao Fu smiled slightly, and the essence in his eyes flashed.

"What's more, there is the Gansu Military Division in the west of Liangzhou City, and the Zhuo Luo and Southern Military Divisions in the east, with an army of 80,000, I'm afraid it's not easy!"

Lanzhou is more than 500 miles away from Liangzhou, and even if the Song army wants to conquer Zhuo Luo and Nanjun Division, which are across the river from Lanzhou City, I am afraid it will take some time, let alone Liangzhou City.

I'm afraid that as soon as the battle in Lanzhou City starts, the Gansu Military Division

The Western Xia reinforcements had already arrived in Liangzhou City.

"As long as I kill the prefect of Wuzang, close the city gate, erect the banner of rebellion, and shout from the heights, Liangzhou City will be in my hands."

Gao Fu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not difficult to kill or not hide, the key is to defend the city." With the three or five hundred men I have gathered, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold out for even half an hour. ”

"It only takes one day to defeat Zhuo Luo and the Southern Military Division. It only takes five to six days for the army to march westward. As long as the senior brother can hold for five days, when the army comes, and advance accordingly, the Gansu military division will be destroyed, and it will be in the blink of an eye. ”

Gao Fu was taken aback and couldn't help blurting out.

"Could it be that Brother Wang is in Ganzhou, and he also has an internal response?"

Wang Dajie shook his head lightly and said, "Don't hide it from Gao Tongzhi, I really don't know it." However, with the firearms of the loyal army, it was easy to conquer Ganzhou City. ”

Gao Fu's face immediately changed, and he said unhappily: "Since the Song people can capture the city wall, what do you want me to do?"

Wang Dajie laughed, picked up the teacup, took a sip, pointed to the tea and said:

"Gao Tongzhi, your tea is good!"

The teacup in his hand suddenly fell to the ground, fell to the ground, and shattered, so startled that Gao Fu almost jumped up.

"Wang Xianggong wants a complete Liangzhou City, not a ruined wall, just like this mess, wouldn't it be rebuilt. Wang Xianggong has no time, and neither does the loyal army!"

He said: "The trend of the world, there is no need to explain it below. When the spring flowers bloom, the army of the North Road will go out of the army and go straight to Huanglong. The army of the West Road went straight to Xingqing Mansion and Hexi. With the military might of the loyal and righteous army, I don't think I need to say more. Brother Gao should still consider the contingency method, don't miss the opportunity!"

Gao Fu lowered his head and pondered, Wang Dajie looked at the guard at the door, and said with a smile: "Brother Gao, this is your son, he looks exactly like you." You and I are in the prime of life, and now it is the world of their younger generation, you should always plan a future for him. ”

The Han guards bowed and bowed, and said, "I have seen the prince in Xia Gao Xiaozhong."

"Sure enough, he is a son of the Han family, but unfortunately he was born in a fishy foreign country."

Wang Dajie nodded lightly and said: "Gao Yanei, the hometown of the Yellow Emperor, the holy land of the Confucian Temple, the three mountains and five mountains, don't you want to return to your hometown and see the splendid Chinese splendor?"

Gao Xiaozhong glanced at his father, straightened up, and spat out a sentence.

"Prince, in this life, you will never be an enemy of China!"

Wang Dajie said: "Gao Yanei, you have this heart, it's good." However, when people walk in heaven and earth, they should know that the righteousness is coming, and they will not care about it. This is the original words of Wang Xianggong, given to the foot, you and I encourage together!"

Gao Xiaozhong took a deep look and straightened up.

"What the prince said, I will keep it in mind!"

Gao Fu glanced at his son dissatisfied, raised his head, and his face became solemn.

"Brother Wang, the words are like this, my father and son's lives are on it. I also hope that you will go back and tell the prince Wang, speed up the preparations, and as soon as the news of the army's departure comes, my side will start immediately. ”

Wang Dajie laughed softly. This old fox, who has been operating in Liangzhou City for so many years, is really deep-rooted, and it seems to be hidden deep enough.

The subordinates have inquired clearly, and several Han tribes outside Liangzhou City are all the only ones who are Gaofu and the horse.

"Brother Gao's return to the Celestial Empire is gratifying. If Liangzhou City is saved, you will be a great achievement, and when the time comes, you will be prosperous and rich, and you will be guaranteed a future. ”

Gao Fu nodded and said solemnly: "Brother Wang, you know about this matter, and my father and son know." You must keep your mouth shut, lest you make a stir and harm yourself as well!"

Wang Dajie clenched his fists and said: "The Loyal and Righteous Army is naturally clear every day, even if something goes wrong, it will not implicate Gao Tongzhi."
