Chapter 35 Western Xia Smoke Cloud
Where could the Tanguts flee?
Where can the dead go?
The Khitan army that originally came to the rescue of Western Xia immediately changed from friendly to enemy after hearing the results of the battle of Haoshuichuan, and was frantically attacking the Weifu Military Division of Montenegro, and the army of Hami was attacking the Yan Military Division of Heishui Town.

And the country of Zupu in a cloud is like a wild dog in the wasteland roaming around, as long as it sees the escaped Tangut people, they will pounce fiercely......
When a beast dies, it attracts countless scavengers, who attach themselves to the dead corpse from the sky, the ground, and the ground to suck, peck, and swallow the last drop of nutrients from the dead body.
When Han Qi was defeated in Shuichuan, this was his heart-piercing pain, and when he fled back to the Song Land on a mule, the old woman asked him, "Fuzun fled back, where is my son", which made him embarrassed, and vomited blood in shame and almost committed suicide.
This time to extinguish the Western Xia, the five-way army marched side by side steadily, opened the road with firearms, pressed the formation with strong crossbows, chiseled the enemy formation with foot soldiers, and finally pursued the defeated army with cavalry, never giving the slightest chance of sneak attack without hiding Pang.
Standing on the battlefield of Haoshuichuan, Han Qi held a dry skull found from the barren grass and roared: "Ren Fu is back!" ”
A Wenchen has the most important demeanor, but now Han Qi is disheveled, his robe is stained with blood, and his eyes are red like a powerful ghost asking for his life, and there is still half of the elegance of the Great Song Dynasty.
Di Qing and Yang Huaiyu whispered in the distance, and Fu Bi was a large camp of the Chinese army sixty miles away.
At this time, no one wanted to get close to Han Qi, the privy envoy......
This person has gone crazy, he came to Xingqing Mansion, he didn't go to the battlefield, the only thing he likes to do is kill people...... When he encounters his former enemies, he will even take matters into his own hands......
Yang Huaiyu watched Han Qi open his mouth and spurt out a mouthful of blood, and said to Di Qing beside him with some concern: "Could there be a problem?" ”
Di Qing and Han Qi have always been at odds, and seeing Han Qi vomiting blood, he frowned and said, "If this blood is spit out, Han Zhigui's heart disease can be regarded as really cured." ”
Yang Huaiyu spat and said: "I don't care if he dies or not, I'm only worried that he will kill all the Western Xia people."
After this battle, you will return to your hometown, and I will also go back to Tokyo to lie on the merit book and wait for death, so I hope to exchange the prisoners of war with the king of Hami.
If you don't have a lot of money, you won't have a good time for the rest of your life. ”
Di Qing also seemed a little worried, the battle of Western Xia was a battle to destroy the country, and his merits had reached the top, and the official family such as official positions and titles would naturally be sufficient, and if he returned to his hometown after illness, he could also leave a family stable and famous.
If you continue to stay in the imperial court and serve as a messy high-ranking official, you must be only one step away from being killed.
Thinking of the deal with Xu Dongsheng, the envoy of the Hami Kingdom, Di Qing was also very worried that Han Qi would continue to go crazy, knowing that if he killed one more person, fifty red copper coins would slip out of his pocket.
It is not only Di Qing and Yang Huaiyu who have this idea, but also the rest of the generals, Di Qing and Yang Huaiyu are not treated by Han Qi.
Under the heartache, Sun Wei, the Xijing transfer envoy, hurriedly supported the crumbling Han Qi and said repeatedly: "Brother Zhigui wake up, Brother Zhigui wake up." ”
After pouring a sip of strong wine, Han Qi opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of bloody wine arrows, his face turned red, he laughed and pulled Sun Wei's arm and said, "Duff, Duff, we have finally washed away the shame of the past with blood." ”
Sun Wei laughed and said: "This time I went back to Huanzhou, but I don't know if there is still an old woman who pulls Zhigui's sleeve and asks where her son goes." ”
In the past, if someone joked with Han Qi like this, Han Qi would definitely be furious, but now it is different, not only is he not angry, but he laughs with it.
Han Qi looked at the dead people all over the mountains, grabbed the wine bag and poured all the wine on the ground, and said viciously: "Old man, I hope that you will not be at peace when you go to the underworld!" ”
Hearing Han Qi's murderous words, Sun Qi couldn't help but be a little worried, but fortunately, Han Qi quickly quieted down, glanced at the generals who were looking at him, and snorted: "Don't worry, the old man won't kill all your money."
However, you must ask clearly, what is Tie Xinyuan going to do with so many prisoners? ”
Di Qing, who had the highest official position in this, naturally didn't speak, and Sun Wei smiled and said, "It doesn't matter what he does, it won't be bad for the Great Song Dynasty anyway." ”
Han Qi said in a deep voice: "Tie Xinyuan is a tiger, it's too early to say this. ”
Sun Wei said in surprise: "Brother Zhigui, the son of the family has become a great trend, and he has entered the East Palace, what else does Tie Xinyuan want to do?" It's not like he wants to live in the East Palace by himself, right?
You are not on good terms with Tie Xinyuan, if you oppose his son's entry into the East Palace at this time, I am afraid that there will really be no room for turnaround. ”
Han Qi sighed and said, "The royal family can't find a talent, what can the old man do?"
After this battle, the old man should also go back to Hebei to enjoy a few years of clean life. ”
Sun Wei watched Han Qi leave, and it wasn't until his group of guards left his sight that he sighed and said to the generals who gathered around: "Collect the prisoners and send someone to Dashi City." ”
The generals swept away the grievances just now, immediately dispersed and returned to their own army, gathered the captured soldiers of their subordinates, counted the numbers and threaded them with cowhide ropes, and finally formed a long procession, escorted all the way north by heavily armed soldiers.
Behind them, the prosperity of Xingqing Mansion was already in the clouds, and thick pillars of smoke rose from the edge of the desert, spread out high in the sky, and then shrouded the sky.
Xingqing Mansion is suffering an unprecedented massacre, with tall and majestic palaces, splendid temples, and dense dwellings all crumbling and destroyed in the fire.
The Western Xia script, which had just been invented and had not yet had time to spread, was also reduced to ashes in the fire. Only a few of the shattered stones still have a skewer on them.
Li Yuanhao's tall mausoleum was violently blasted open by gunpowder, and the corpses that had rotted and only dry bones were dragged out of the grave by the soldiers and scattered on the desert, and the rings on the finger bones became the trophies of the Song soldiers, who wore silk threads and hung them under their necks to show off to everyone they knew or didn't know.
The slaves captured by the Capture Army are using the most ferocious and cruel means to get revenge on their former masters.
Lady-clad and shadowy ladies wailed in the dust, dragged into the shadows by their former most disregarded slaves...... The noble son of the flying eagle was like a lost dog who could not find a place to hide, and finally his throat was cut open by the smiling warrior...... Bald party nobles sit in the depths of the flames with their most ornate jewels to make the final sacrifice to the dead nation.
The Western Xia Kingdom, which had made the Great Song Dynasty suffer for more than 50 years, was finally destroyed, and the furious Fu Bi abandoned the last trace of elegance on his body, and with an order, Xingqing Mansion, a famous city in the northwest, was reduced to ashes, and even those strong city walls became ruins in the roar of gunpowder.
The Great Song Dynasty didn't want to garrison troops here, and didn't want characters like Li Jiqian and Li Yuanhao to continue to appear here.
Perhaps in the future, there will be a few small remote counties here, and some farmers will re-use iron plows to cultivate the fertile land here.
And now, the Great Song Dynasty needs this to be a white land, and it needs to become a wasteland where wild beasts are rampant.
Only in this way will the national glory of the Great Song Dynasty last for a long time.
The Western Expedition has been going on for half a year, and victory has been within reach since the beginning of the year.
As a result, news of the victory of the Komizu River reached Tokyo, and the people sang and danced to celebrate the second great victory of the Empire.
The officials of the Great Song Dynasty were not surprised by this, and after allowing the people to celebrate for three days, they paid more attention to the palace.
To be precise, it was placed in the imperial study.
Zhao Zhen and Tie Xi's ancestors and grandsons have been hiding in the study for the past two days, and the officials of the Ministry of Industry have entered the study like a stream, but when they came out, they were worried one by one.
Wen Yanbo couldn't hold back his curiosity, and also walked into the study, and as soon as he entered the door, he was shocked by the huge construction drawings hanging on the wall.
The main reason is that he can't understand this drawing, but fortunately, Liang Kai, a member of the Ministry of Engineering who was accompanying the emperor, was very knowledgeable and interesting, and re-explained this drawing to the top official of the Great Song Dynasty in a hoarse voice.
Only then did Wen Yanbo set his eyes on the model of the gallop on the floor of the study......
Like a real child, Tie Xi happily pushed the carriage on the track with his hands and played boringly......
Zhao Zhen's somewhat tired voice came from behind the table: "Wen Qing, bring these drawings back, and prepare for the big court meeting in ten days." ”
Wen Yanbo bowed down and said, "This thing is extremely ridiculous! ”
Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said: "The road connecting Qingxiang City and Hami City in Hami has been built, and it doesn't cost much. ”
Wen Yanbo frowned and said: "The army of the expedition to the west will be divided at the end of the year, and the treasury may not have the money to build such a galloping road." ”
Zhao Zhen smiled bitterly: "Even if we want to invest money, Hami Kingdom is not willing to let us have more shares." ”
Wen Yanbo let out a sigh of relief, glanced at Tie Xi, who was still playing, and couldn't help but be a little envious of this kid's good life, he had an extremely strong father, and his life path was really smooth.
After only a moment's sigh, Wen Yanbo refocused his attention on this unprecedented gallop.
At a cursory glance, he understood the importance of this gallop for the empire to dominate the Western Regions.
It's just that the extravagance is bound to be amazing, and Hami is probably doing this with the strength of the whole country this time, which is quite a bit of a snake swallowing an elephant.
Wen Yanbo made a decision in the shortest possible time, and he wanted to know if this gallop could empty the treasury of the Hami country and make the rich Hami country impoverished.
If the Hami Kingdom was not as rich as it is now, even if their armor was sharp, the threat to the Great Song Dynasty would immediately drop a few notches.
At the same time, he didn't understand how with Tie Xinyuan's intelligence, Huo Xian and Liu Qi's old way, would make such a move.
After thinking about all the possibilities, he could only sigh and envy Tie Xi's good life.
