Chapter 323: Long Aotian Mode in History
Qiu Ba was the agent of Sanshan Qizhai, and this time he brought five cows and three horses when he entered Funing County, but there were no sheep.
This guy is always sneaky like a thief, and his surname is Qiu Mingba, so he is really called Qiu Ba.
The current batch was the least ever they had sent since they reached a secret agreement with the Great Bird, totaling eight cattle. In the past, there were more than that, and they were sent every month, at least fifteen or more.
Now that Funing County has begun to release labor with mechanical power to a certain extent, it is expected that the demand for these livestock will not be serious.
However, this is also a testament to the rapid deterioration of the border situation. They must have been warned by the Western Xia border army, so they sent a large amount of supplies to the Western Xia, not the Great Song.
In normal times, they did use the method of "maintenance channels", supplying the Tanguts in small quantities and at low prices as appeasement, and then mainly supplying the border fortresses of the Great Song Dynasty. This is because the people of the Great Song Dynasty are stupid and have a lot of money, they are not angry, they are not sensitive to price, and they can maximize their benefits.
But during the special period, it was the other way around, even if the Tangut people gave little money, they could only supply the Tangut for pre-war reserves. Because in their bones, they knew that they were going to fight, and the Great Song Dynasty couldn't defeat the Xixia people. So this is kind of taking sides.
After the handover of the eight animals this time, Erya bit her finger and looked at the five cows Shaoqing, and saw that one of them was very thin and pitiful, and she was still young, so Erya named it Xiaoworm, and announced that she wanted it. The cow is also considered her pet.
The officials of the county government are very speechless about this, even if the demand for cattle in Funing County is not big now, but this is also the asset of the county government, and it is not bought with money. Although it is a norm for people from the old man's family to come over and take the things of the public house for themselves, these things are not allowed under the rule of the Great Demon King.
Fortunately, Erya is not a robber, she has known this since she was a child, and she is really a rich woman now, she owns two thousandths of the equity of Northwest United Investment Bank, and she has a lot of dividends last year. Erya played tricks and spent money to buy the worm.
Now that Er Ya and Xiao Bell have mounts, Er Ya rides Xiao Bao, and Xiao Bell rides a sick calf, walking slowly, but it is the first batch of cavalry in the Funing County Youth Army......
In mid-October of the first year of Jiayou, on the Song-Xia border, reconnaissance cavalry from both sides appeared more and more frequently, and friction was getting worse day by day.
It is not necessary to say that the Tanma of the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty accidentally bumped into each other and fought, but the fight between their own people became the norm during this period, for example, after the scouts of the security army and the Dingbian army met each other, they were likely to fight each other.
For example, when the scouts of the Plantation Army encounter the scouts of the Great Bird Funing Army, there is a high probability that they will raise their fists and say that the other party will smash the field, and they will be very happy. Sometimes I will encounter Western Xia scouts watching and eating melons and watching jokes.
It is not only the Song people who are stupid, but also the Tangut people who also have these problems. Just like the centipede that Wang Yan fought in Lanruo Temple at the beginning would not be able to coordinate, these prove from the side that there is now more than one head in Western Xia, with "unspoken rule orders" from different systems, so some people specifically want to cause trouble, and some people are preventing these from happening.
The reason why there will be serious internal fights between the two sides is that the interests are to blame.
It is not only the Western Xia that has a "capturing army", in fact, the Song army in the border area is the same, if the scouts on the mission encounter border people, and whether the object is the Tangut or the Song people, they will go to rob, probably just slap the back of the head and say "bring the materials".
In this way, the number of temples is not enough. There are so many things in the hands of the border people, and when there are border army squads and security army squads in the same area, they will fight with each other, which roughly means "this is Lao Tzu's territory, and your hands are stretched too long."
This kind of thing is the most popular thing for the family army, which is also the reason why Sima Guang dislikes the family the most.
Wang Yan's troops are also a group of trouble-making hooligans, and if the reconnaissance team of the Funing Army encounters the robbery of the old team, they will start without saying a word. Regardless of whether the target of the robbery is the Tangut or the Song people, they will be beaten when they see it. In front of the Western Xia scouts, he will also fight.
Because Wang Yan's order was "not to clash with the Western Xia scouts", but he did not say that he was not allowed to provoke the family army.
In fact, the people in the buffer region of the Golden Triangle, who were neither Song nor Tangut, were a group of poor forgotten people, victims of the political frontiers of both sides. Among them are Han Chinese and Qiang people.
In the current situation, in this area where countless warlords are concentrated and torn apart, Wang Yan's troops have the best reputation, never "captured", and will prevent others from robbing the border people.
In the past, the border people ran away when they saw soldiers, whether it was the Song army or the Western Xia army. That's why they will cling to what kind of bandits they are attached to.
Now, if they see the Funing army, they are heartless, sometimes the big head soldiers of the Funing army will come to ask for a bowl of water to drink, by the way begging for some forage and beans to feed the horses, and will throw two copper coins on the ground. In this way, the border people will be very happy, and they will give the war horse a leg pinch, with a brush to "wash the car" and other gifts.
This is the benefit of the strict rule of the Great Bird, as long as it is done, the popularity of all sides is gradually building. In fact, Wang Yan feels that he is not doing well, and he depends on his teammates to support him, and when there are too many pig teammates, as long as Wang Yan does not do badly, he can become a big star.
This kind of thing is the most bottomless in the Western Xia capture army.
The Song army generally only looted property, and occasionally killed people, but since it was not an administrative district, no one went to investigate.
The Western Xia army killed people, but in fact, it was not much. However, in addition to robbing wealth, they also arrested people, and even if they were slaves, they were treated the same regardless of whether they were Qiang or Han.
This is the origin of the captive army, which is the main combat elite of the Western Xia border guards. It is the military system "developed" by Li Yuanhao's tyrant.
Li Yuanhao paid attention to the law of the jungle in the early days, and the reason why the elite troops of the Western Xia were not afraid of death and made the Song army afraid was because of Li Yuanhao's capture army system, they grabbed slaves from the border and were children, and they were gathered together as dead soldiers from an early age, so that they could fight each other, and the dead were eliminated by inferior species, and those who survived were considered to be the survival of the fittest.
These were the fierce soil and environment of the Western Xia army. This work is carried out by the captive army, and the top soldiers trained are sent to the most elite special forces in Western Xia, which is the "iron harrier" that is passed on by word of mouth.
The Western Xia guards are also known as elites, but they are not. It was the same as the Japanese army of the Song Kingdom, it was a group of aristocratic troops, with first-class equipment, but the personnel were all composed of the children of the noble family of Western Xia, which only represented a lot of money and could spend money to buy fame.
By the way, Li Yuanhao was a believer in the early days, and Buddhism had no influence in Western Xia. But then there was a moth, Li Yuanhao's prince Ning Ming, a person who believed in Confucianism and Taoism, ended up with books all over his body, which caused Li Yuanhao to dislike it, and since then he has had conflicts with the prince.
The prince was angry and devoted himself to the Tao, just as Long Aotian in YY was not treated by the family, His Royal Highness the Prince shouted "I want to break through and become stronger", and later he really met a "Dao Elder Grandpa". Since then, he has embarked on the route of Bigu Xiuzhen and practiced some kind of legendary super powerful exercises.
This is true, there is really a way to cultivate the truth in Taoist culture, and Lu Chunyang is now advocating these in the Great Song Dynasty. Back then, Li Yuanhao's eldest son really did the same.
As a result, the historical Ning Ming really went mad, and the Long Aotian mode failed. For this reason, Li Yuanhao was furious and officially announced the ban on Taoism.
At this point, the foundation of Daomen in the northwest was dispersed, and Buddhism began to accelerate its development in Western Xia. Then, the beautiful women who believed in Buddhism also ushered in a turning point like Wu Mei of the Tang Dynasty, and announced the arrival of Buddhism in the spring of Western Xia.
I really can't complain about these big birds, art comes from life, and life follows the trajectory of history. Therefore, in YY, which was popular in later generations, Long Aotian was not treated by the family - when he met his grandfather, he began to cultivate the road of breakthrough. These are really not made up, these routines really have a source, but they are embellished and reversed with literary techniques.
It's far away.
In short, the current border situation makes Wang Yan extremely mad.
There are countless systems involved, and countless interest groups conflict. "Cutting and tidying up and messing" should only be used to describe the current border where cows, ghosts, snakes and gods are concentrated, not to Wenqing's romance and love.
Friction will escalate, and there is a bottom line for forbearance and restraint. At present, the Northwest Politics, the Security Army, the Dingbian Army, the Tianwu Army, the Huanzhou Garrison Division, the Funing Army, the Chongjia Army, the Suide Army, including the Qin Feng Army, have started all kinds of open and dark wars between everyone.
Xixia's movements are also continuing to amplify, and it may not be too difficult to judge the difference between Wang Anshiti's "friction and invasion".
But there is also a problem that has to be faced, the black cauldron of the leader is often thrown by subordinates. When the contradictions between the border guards of the Great Song Dynasty intensified, and even a major accident could not be concealed, then taking the initiative to trigger a national war was actually a kind of bureaucratic warlord shirking responsibility.
War is really a big garbage can, inclusive, almost any garbage can be poured into it, it can be covered up.
If you really think about it clearly, it is because the contradictory values of the two nations cannot be reconciled and have been invaded, then Wang Yan is not afraid of such a national war at all, and he will fight until the sky is dark.
But now, Wang Yan's greatest wish is to avoid this already imminent war.
Of course, this has a relationship that Wang Yan is quite afraid of death, but at the same time, he must also ask: Whose war is this?
This is less like a national war, more like a war designed to cover up the ugliness of some warlords and to help those who have not taken power.
Trying to rescue the "Western Xia version of Wu Mei" may be an unrealistic fantasy, even if it succeeds, it is impossible to predict what butterfly effect will be caused by it later, but Wang Yan chose to implement and work hard, he can't sit still, he just wants to do something.
"Zhanzhao, I hope you can catch up and live up to your mission."
Thinking of this in the middle of the night, Wang Yan put down his pen and muttered like this.
But this time there was no little bell to listen, she was leading the second girl to sleep......
