The reason why the Liao people appeared in the northwest of the Great Song Dynasty was indeed promoted by the Western Xia people.

This matter has now become almost a well-known thing in the Northwest.

But as long as the Western Xia did not admit it, the Great Song Dynasty could not come up with any strong evidence to prove that it was done by the Western Xia.

After all, on the face of it, Western Xia was also a victim.

As a result, Western Xia lost much territory.

But if Xixia admits it, it will be different.

The Great Song Dynasty had plenty of excuses to teach Western Xia a lesson.

Even if there is no way to teach Western Xia a lesson due to the war in the land of Yanyun, then people will be sent to Western Xia to hold them accountable and force Western Xia to cut their flesh to atone for their sins.

So middle-aged people don't dare to admit it at all.

The middle-aged man didn't dare to admit it, and there was no omission in Kou Ji's words, and he couldn't refute it.

Seeing that the middle-aged man no longer spoke, Kou Ji snorted coldly and said to the middle-aged man: "For the sake of the allies, this time I will let you go." You go back quickly, tell Dejing Town and the Western Xia soldiers and horses in Qiliping, and quickly withdraw from the territory of the Great Song Dynasty.

Otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind. ”

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and roared in humiliation: "Kou Ji, my Great Xia has bowed to the Great Song Dynasty, and sent an envoy to Bianjing City to admit his mistake, His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty has not bullied my Great Xia, and now that you are bullying my Great Xia, are you not afraid that my Great Xia lord will send someone to Bianjing City to sue you?" ”

When Kou Ji heard this, his eyes were cold, "Bastard, what qualifications do you have to call me by my name." robbed me of the capture that the Great Song soldiers exchanged for their lives, I don't know the shame, and I have to go to Bianjing City to sue me for a trick, do you really think I have no temper? ”

"Left and right?!"

"The subordinates are here!"

"Drag it down, knock out a tooth for me, throw it back to Dejing Town, and by the way, tell my words to Dejing Town and the Xixia people in Qiliping. I gave them three hours to get out of the territory that my Great Song soldiers had bought with their lives.

In three hours, I will divide the land among the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty.

At that time, if there are still Western Xia people entrenched in my Great Song territory, don't blame me for being a killer. ”

Kou Ji's voice landed, and before the guards around him could make a move, the soldiers of the Hengshan Army who followed behind him shouted in unison.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"No mercy!"

“……”

The middle-aged man who came from Dejing Town was almost paralyzed on the ground by the shouts of the soldiers of the Hengshan Army.

Up to now, as long as you are a clear-eyed person, you know what Kou Ji is going to do.

Kou Ji said that he was here to take back what they had gained, but in fact, he was robbing the territory of Western Xia in the next life.

Those soldiers of the Hengshan Army obviously knew that Kou Ji was going to grab the territory from the Western Xia, but they were not ambiguous at all, and decisively used their shouts to support Kou Ji behind his back.

Obviously, they don't care what means the land was obtained.

They just want to keep the land in their own hands.

If there is a big war for the land, they don't seem to be afraid at all, not afraid at all, and even a little eager to try.

The officers and men of the Hengshan Army have already put on a posture that even if there is a big battle, they will take Dejing Town and Qiliping away.

The middle-aged man knew in his heart that no matter how much he said, it would be useless.

Without waiting for the middle-aged man to react from the shock.

The guards beside Kou Ji jumped in front of him, one restrained the middle-aged man's arm, and the other shook off his arm and slapped the middle-aged man's face fiercely.

The slap was loud and crisp, and it spread far away.

The guards beside Kou Ji were ruthless, so when a slap went out, the middle-aged man's face turned red, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

The guards carried out Kou Ji's order, saying that if he lost his teeth, he would knock out his teeth, and there was no ambiguity at all.

The middle-aged man was a little stunned by the heavy slap.

My mind was dizzy, and there seemed to be Venus around my head.

It wasn't until the third slap landed on his face that he let out a miserable scream.

However, none of those present had pity on him.

There were even people who felt that Kou Ji's guards were not fighting hard enough, and wanted to go up and help.

No one felt sorry for him.

Because compared to the humiliation that Western Xia brought to the soldiers of the Great Song Border Army in previous years, the humiliation that Kou Ji inflicted on middle-aged people was nothing at all.

Kou Ji's guards shook off their shoulders and slapped them a dozen times, only knocking out the two teeth of the middle-aged man.

Liu Heng leaned down and gave an order to a crony beside him.

The cronie stepped forward and replaced Koji's guards.

When it comes to torturing people and executing people, he is the professional.

After Liu Heng's cronies took over the work of Kou Ji's guards, they did not rush to throw off their arms and do it, but took a piece of **** wood and stuffed it into the middle-aged man's mouth.

Then throwing off his arms is a slap in the face.

After a long time, Liu Heng's cronies took out the wooden block in the middle-aged man's mouth, and the middle-aged man's mouthful of teeth, mixed with blood, were all inlaid on the wooden block.

After the middle-aged man's mouth was beaten down, Kou Ji's guards decisively carried the middle-aged man, stepped on the horse, led a team of people, and rushed to Dejing Town.

After the guards left, Kou Ji ordered the soldiers of the Hengshan Army to camp on the spot, rest on the spot, and after recuperating their spirits, they would start to stake their horses tomorrow.

However.

The soldiers of the Hengshan Army knew that they were about to have land in their hands, so how could they rest?

One by one, they couldn't help themselves, and they couldn't wait to straddle their horses now and rush to Dejing Town and Qiliping.

Dejing Town and Qili Ping are adjacent to water.

In this era when water conservancy is not developed, the irrigation of farmland is very difficult, and every time there is a major drought, in order to compete for water to water the fields, all villages, towns, and villages often fight each other.

Therefore, as long as the field adjacent to the water is not saline-alkali land, it is a high-quality field.

There is no doubt that the land of Dejing Town and Qiliping is this kind of high-quality field.

Often, one acre of high-quality field will yield nearly twice as much harvest per year as one acre of low-grade field.

Although the officers and men of the Hengshan Army who have divided the land now have no combat exploits, they have not received much land.

But all they received were the best fields.

Every acre of land can live a family member, and they are naturally excited to help themselves.

The officers and men of the Hengshan Army couldn't rest excitedly, and they were circling around.

The captain guarding the city on the city wall near the terrible Shizhou was not lightly frightened.

The old lieutenant, who was nearly fifty years old, saw the Great Song Dynasty soldiers who kept popping up outside the Great Wall, one head and two big.

The old lieutenant rubbed his eyebrows, and said with a headache: "That group of mallets went out to plague the Xixia people again?" ”

No one answered the old lieutenant's question.

Although the Hengshan Army has been promoted to the forbidden army, their corresponding armaments have not yet been delivered, so the armor and military uniforms they wear are all varied.

The Great Song Dynasty had a unified military uniform, but it was a regional unity.

During this period, there were several color changes, so there were several styles and colors of military uniforms.

There are many soldiers in the Hengshan Army who are from different van armies, and their military uniforms are naturally different.

In addition, some of the generals of the Xiang Army had drunk the blood of the soldiers before, and even the money and property on the military uniforms and armaments were deducted, so some soldiers wore the earliest style of military uniforms, and some even had patches.

So when they were swaying on the edge of the Great Wall outside Shizhou, the old captain on the Great Wall naturally thought of a soldier and horse called the Northwest Scourge.

It was an army of bandits.

When the Great Song Dynasty was conquering Western Xia, it emerged from those criminal prisoners and refugees who migrated over.

When the Great Song Dynasty conquered the Western Xia, they did not go to harm the Western Xia people.

The Tangut people were tossed and burned, but the Song court felt that they had done a good job, and felt that they had helped the court contain some of the Tangut soldiers and horses, and they were meritorious, so they were recruited.

Responsible for the co-optation of them is Li Di, the former Tongzhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi.

When Li Di was in the northwest, he was able to suppress them, and they obeyed the orders of the imperial court, went out to Western Xia to cause trouble, caused trouble to Western Xia, and made many military exploits.

When Li Di left, he organized them into a group exercise and asked them to defend the territory and protect the territory.

They did an impeccable job.

It's just that it's hard to change.

The women and children in their family farmed on the land distributed by the imperial court, and the annual harvest was also good, plus some military salaries issued by the imperial court, their lives were reasonable.

But they are accustomed to eating night grass and grabbing windfalls.

Always dissatisfied with the present days.

So, while guarding the land, they began to run to Western Xia to make a windfall.

At first, they were in groups of three or five, plundering the small tribes of the Western Xia on the border, or the wandering merchants on the border of the Western Xia.

Relying on robbery, the first group of people quickly became rich.

When the others saw it, their eyes naturally turned red.

Then, they began to go out in droves to plague the Tanguts.

In the end, the entire regiment went out to plague the Tangut people.

Now, not only the soldiers and horses trained by the entire regiment, but also some ordinary people under the control of their regimental training have gradually joined them.

Their entire regiment had about 4,000 troops.

But when they went out to Western Xia to cause trouble, the number had climbed to about six thousand.

6,000 people went out of the customs, and the scene was naturally not small.

It is impossible not to attract the attention of the Tanguts.

But when they leave the Great Wall, they will be broken into pieces.

With a group of 100 people, they acted as horse thieves all over Western Xia.

The target is small, and the flow is fast, and the Tangut people may not be able to catch it for a while.

That's why they have succeeded repeatedly.

It doesn't matter if they are in trouble in Western Xia.

But it's hard for the soldiers who defend the city.

Every time they finished robbing the Tangut people and encountered the pursuit of the Tangut army, they fled to the pass of the Great Wall.

They are the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty with a number, and the soldiers defending the city naturally cannot sit idly by.

The soldiers defending the city let them into the Great Wall, and it was inevitable that they would have to fight with the Western Xia soldiers and horses who were pursuing them.

If it weren't for the fact that every time they encountered the Western Xia army chasing and fleeing into the Great Wall, they helped the soldiers defending the city to meet the enemy, and left some goods as a reward when they left.

I'm afraid they had already been shut out of the city gates and killed by the Tanguts.

It's strange to say.

The Tangut people were tossed by them for so long, and they were stunned that they did not send envoys to Bianjing City to complain.

I don't know what the Tangut people think.

Afraid of being embarrassed to say it?

Or is it that the Western Xia people used to rob the Great Song Dynasty a lot, but now they are robbed by the Great Song Dynasty, they think it is retribution, so they don't make a noise?

The old lieutenant couldn't figure out why the Xixia people didn't go to Bianjing City to complain.

In short, he saw the shadow activities of the Song army soldiers outside the city, and subconsciously thought of that group of scourges, and subconsciously felt that that group of scourges were going to plague the Western Xia people again.

"Send someone out and see if it's the same mallets out there again. This group of mallets really doesn't stop. Kou Jingluo sits in the northwest, and he dares to mess around outside, and he is not afraid of Kou Jingluo cleaning them up. ”

The old lieutenant made a decision, selected two clever soldiers to defend the city, and quietly released them out of the city with hanging baskets.

After the two defenders had gone out for a long time, they returned to the city walls.

Before the old lieutenant could send someone to hang them up, they shouted under the city.

"Captain, it is Kou Jingluo who is stationed outside the pass with the Hengshan Army, and it is said that the soldiers of the Hengshan Army will be divided into land, and the land of Dejing Town and Qiliping will be divided."

When the old lieutenant heard this, he stood on the gate and was stunned for a long time before he reacted.

"Kou Jingluo? Are you sure you're not mistaken? ”

"How could it be wrong, more than 50,000 horses. The black pressure is overwhelming, and the group of guys who are closed by the iron gate are not 50,000. ”

"Is it really Kou Jingluo? What was he doing outside the Shizhou Great Wall? ”

"Captain, didn't you say it just now, divide the land, divide the land of Dejing Town and Qiliping."

“……”

The old lieutenant repeatedly confirmed that it was Kou Ji who led the soldiers and horses outside the city, and his face was incredulous.

"Dejing Town and Qiliping, that's the territory of Western Xia......"

After the old lieutenant muttered, he ordered: "Go and investigate again, and after confirming that it is Kou Jingliu, come back and inform me." ”

The two soldiers did not dare to disobey the old captain's military order, so they immediately went to investigate again, and when they came back, they gave the old captain a positive answer.

"Grandpa God...... What is Kou Jingluo going to do, divide the land of Western Xia, this is to provoke the war between my Great Song Dynasty and Western Xia. ”

The old lieutenant exclaimed.

"Fight it, fight it, with Kou Jingluo, we are not even afraid of the Liao people, and we can also be afraid of the Xixia people."

One of the subordinates muttered under his breath.

The old lieutenant glared and scolded, "What do you know. Now Cao Shuai led a heavy army to fight against the Liao people in the land of Yanyun, if Kou Jingluo started a big war with the Western Xia people here, it is very likely to affect Cao Shuai's war in the land of Yanyun. ”

"If Cao Shuai can't clean up the Liao people, after Kou Jingluo cleans up the Xixia people, it's okay to clean up the Liao people. I have heard of the humble position, and if you follow Kou Jingluo to fight, you will not only have money, but also land, and most importantly, you can get high-ranking officials and lords. ”

When the old lieutenant heard this, he glared at his subordinates viciously.

The old lieutenant snorted coldly and said, "Take me and hang me, I'm going to visit Kou Jingluo." ”

Immediately.

There were soldiers who helped the old lieutenant get armor and blades.

After the old lieutenant was fully dressed, he stepped on his horse, led a few of his own soldiers, opened the city gate, and went to find Kou Ji.

Running out of the Great Wall, it didn't take long for him to see the camp where the Hengshan Army was stationed.

The garrison of the Hengshan Army is not far from the Great Wall where the old lieutenant is sitting.

It's just that there is a low hill to cover it, and the low hill is covered with trees, and the Hengshan army is hidden on the other side of the low hill, so the old captain can't see it when he stands on the Great Wall.
