Many prefectures and counties in Western Xia were originally the land of the Great Song Dynasty, but now they can be regarded as recovering lost territory.

But more places have been occupied by foreign races since the Tang Dynasty, for example, many Hetao areas have long been robbed by the Tubo people.

Later, the rise of Western Xia and the decline of Tubo, Western Xia snatched it back from Tubo.

In Weizhou, which is less than a day's journey from Hehuang, along both sides of the official road near the water source, a large army camp has been set up.

At this moment, it is the time to bury the pot and make rice, and the smell of rice and meat wafts in the air, and laughter and laughter resound in the camp from time to time.

Tibet, which was strong for a while, has long been out of order at this time, and has become a fish belly that can be bullied.

The previous time, they teamed up with Western Xia and almost made the Great Song Dynasty miserable, and now it is their turn to pay the price.

When Xingqing Mansion was lost, the Tubo people fled faster than rabbits, and now that the army was pressing, they hurriedly sent people to ask for peace.

The last time Tong Guan was scared, the battle of Hehuang was the highlight of Tong Guan, and it was also the fear of the hearts of the Tibetan people.

Yang Lin took the peace letter and sneered, if it is said that it is necessary to appease the west of the river and bring it to the right, then this power is the most suitable to fall on the Tubo people.

First, they are weak, torn apart, and easy to bully;

Second, they still occupy a considerable amount of land, and they have enough warriors that they must be subdued and taken for their own use.

Tong Guan is now stubbornly guarding his Shengjie army, and he doesn't express his opinion on everything, anyway, he has a share of the credit.

The remaining important generals of the Western Army were also in favor of using Tubo to establish their prestige in the vast northwest land newly laid.

The war was about to break out, but there was no tension, and everyone knew that Tibet had fallen.

More soldiers of the Western Army are no longer here, and they all want to go to Bianliang for a while. They practiced day and night near Xingqing Mansion, selecting burly and strong ones with superb equestrian skills, and preparing to go to Bianliang to offer Jiejie.

Taking advantage of this time, Yang Lin also said goodbye to everyone and traveled around the newly laid states and counties, saying that he would inspect the cultivation of each county in the twilight of spring.

The generals in the northwest did not doubt it, Yang Lin took the opportunity to promote and install grassroots officials everywhere, and by the time Tong Guan reacted, he had already installed most of the county and county officials.

The appointment and dismissal of officials in the Great Song Dynasty originally had a set of strict norms, but Yang Lin took advantage of the particularity of this place to make a big deal out of it, and no one could govern him.

Jingzhou, in front of the government office.

Yang Lin rubbed his hands, took a breath, and pointed to the open space in the distance with a scolding: "Here, there is a Taoist temple, and it is called Chiyang Temple!" ”

In the past two days, it has been bitterly cold, Qin Qingqing wore a light fur sewn from lambskin, held a fox skin hand stove and handed it to Yang Lin, a silk of green silk hung down on his chest, and his watery beautiful eyes covered his mouth and chuckled: "Eat sheep restaurant?" The name is too straightforward. ”

Yang Lin ignored the people around him, slapped him on the buttocks, and scolded with a smile: "Chiyangzi is the Taoist name of your master, and he will serve by my side in the future, and he is not allowed to be hippie and smiling. ”

Qin Qingqing smiled, but leaned over and hugged his arm tightly. When Yang Lin arrived at the far place of the emperor of the mountain, he completely let go of himself, put his arm around her pink neck and turned around: "Freedom of belief is a great benevolent government, and the people themselves can believe whatever they want, this is the atmosphere brought to the northwest by this official, and it will blow all over the west of the river to the right!" ”

The officials behind him were all selected by Yang Lin from the local Confucian scholars, and the folk customs in the northwest were relatively civilized here.

Hearing Shaozai's remarks, an old official pinched his beard and said: "Shaozai, this policy can still be implemented in our Jingzhou, but it will be difficult to get to the west." ”

Yang Lin didn't think about it, and said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, take your time imperceptibly, and sooner or later there will be that day." It's worth shedding a little blood and dying people. ”

The deep-rooted religious foolish people are the biggest obstacle on the road to sinicization, and Yang Lin knows this very well.

Khitan, Shangjing, inside the imperial palace.

The Khitans received Xiao Baoxian's secret report, believing that the Great Song Dynasty had a problem with him, and the Western Xia was safe and sound.

They didn't expect that whether it was the Tangut people or the Song people, they were ready to give each other a fatal blow.

When the battle report of Western Xia came, the entire Khitan exploded.

Using Western Xia to contain the Great Song Dynasty was the national policy of the Khitan, which began when Li Jiqian was in the past.

Now that the Western Xia has been destroyed, the Great Song Dynasty has no reason to have more vast horse breeding land and high-quality military recruitment areas.

The Khitan, who had stabilized the Great Song Dynasty, suddenly felt the pressure, but the wood was already in the boat, and the Western Xia was not defeated, but directly lost the country.

In this way, the relationship between Song and Liao will inevitably change, even if it will not be in a short period of time, there will be a day sooner or later.

Everyone knows that the Great Song Dynasty longs for the sixteen states of Yanyun and their hatred.

Although Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi blindly hunted, lived a desolate and luxurious life, and ignored the government and government, he was also worried about this, and convened the important ministers of Daliao to discuss this matter for the first time.

When the world was strong, the Khitan and the Great Song Dynasty and Western Xia were barely one, and now that the Great Song Dynasty annexed the Western Xia, the balance has been broken, and hundreds of thousands of Western troops who can conquer and fight have been liberated.

The current ruler of the Khitan is actually Xiao Fengxian, the king of Lanling County, and his two younger sisters, one is the empress and the other is the concubine.

This old boy is a real traitor, and he knows that he coaxes his brother-in-law Emperor Tianzuo to have fun, and he controls the Khitan government.

He said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Song Dynasty has always been weak and incompetent, and there is no threat to our Daliao at all. ”

"Is what Uncle Guo said true?" Yelu Yanxi didn't want to think about these things at all, and he dared to believe what others dared to say.

Xiao Fengxian smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the Song people are just a mere Western Xia, and compared to our Great Liao, they are still not worth mentioning. The minister then wrote a letter of entitlement, reprimanded them, and told them to send Princess Anqing back to Khitan. If the Song people respectfully return her, it means that the Great Song Dynasty is still afraid of our Khitan. ”

What does it matter if you send back a princess, this is generally a bit of a brain, Yelu Yanxi clapped his hands and smiled: "Okay, Uncle Guo quickly go and write, let's see if the emperor of the Song Kingdom is afraid, if he is afraid, let him send another princess of the Great Song Dynasty to make peace." ”

The young Khitan petty official in the hall gritted his teeth with hatred and made a terrible sound.

Someone gently pulled the corner of his clothes and signaled him not to make a sound, and the petty official stomped his feet hatefully, but finally did not go out.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, the petty official said to the elderly Khitan nobles: "Dutong, the Xiao family bullied the monarch and harbored evil intentions, why don't you let me speak?" ”

"You Yelu Dashi, why are you fighting with Xiao Feng first? Isn't it death to go out now? The more people in our Yelu family died, the happier the surname Xiao became. ”

The person who spoke was named Yelu Yujian, and he was a member of the Great Liao Clan, and the young general opposite him was the later famous Yelu Dashi, the eighth grandson of Yelu Abaoji, the eighth grandson of Liao Taizu, who was just a small official of the clan at this time.

The Khitan court is not much stronger than the Great Song Dynasty now, Yelu Yanxi is dozens of times more mediocre than Zhao Ji, and Xiao Fengxian, Xiao Delidi and other ministers are dozens of times more treacherous than Cai Jing and Liang Shicheng.

The two clans sighed helplessly and continued to forbear, and the Khitan sat back and watched the Great Song Dynasty annex Western Xia.
