The meeting was officially opened.

More than 200 people gathered at the Xining Prefecture Mansion, Xin Zhen sat on it, and asked: "The three of them, Seed Master Dao, Seed Brother, and Xia Zhi, can there be any news to pass back?!" ”

"I told the Commander, but I haven't heard from them."

No news?!

It's been five days, and there is no news yet, which is quite troublesome!

After all, the preparations that should be made have been prepared, but if the most critical link of cutting off the grain route cannot be done, wouldn't it be a failure and empty joy? !

Xin Xi resolutely ordered: "Since there is no news coming back, it means that they have not done what I asked for, no matter what, those three things must be done!" ”

"Zhou Zhao!" Xin Zhen shouted loudly.

In the hall, a middle-aged man wearing a three-grade military uniform stood up: "The last general!" ”

"This commander, with you leading an army of 30,000 to sneak into the territory of Tubo, if the planting and planting masters have completed the task, you will assist them to defend the line of Gahai and the Dao River, no matter what, you can't retreat a single step! If they haven't conquered the Gahai and the Downing River, then you can take the opportunity to do it, either to help them, or to go to one of the big and small places! ”

"Whoa!" Zhou Zhao replied with a fist.

Xin Zhen nodded, and then turned his head to look at another battlefield general, this person's name was Shi Zhao, and he was a disciple of the Shi family.

"Shi Zhao!"

"The last general!" Shi Zhao's face was full of spirit.

Xin Zhen frowned slightly, and then spoke: "You will lead an army of 50,000 people, break it into pieces, sneak into the territory of Western Xia, and lay down a place a hundred miles east of the Blue Sky Valley, and form a corner with Xia Zhi to help defend the Blue Sky Valley!" ”

"Whoa!" Shi Zhao replied loudly.

Jiangmen is already in decline, and his Shi family has been in decline for decades, if he can make some credit through this battle, there may still be a chance to revitalize the Shi family at that time!

Immediately afterwards, some scattered orders were conveyed, and a series of transfers were slowly bringing the 700,000 troops of the Western Army closer to Tibet or Western Xia.

At the end of the meeting, Xin Yi asked Xin Yi to call Xin Jiu and Xin 13 over.

"Xin Jiu, you go to Tubo, and you are responsible for collecting information such as the movements of the Tubo army and passing it back, and at the same time, you will also make three more copies and pass them on to the seed master, the seed master Dao and Zhou Zhao."

"Xin Thirteen, you are going to Western Xia, mobilize all means, collect all the information of Western Xia, no matter how big or small, and send one back, and make two more copies at the same time, and pass them on to Xia Zhi and Shi Zhao!"

"Whoa!" The two said yes loudly.

With Xin Zhen waving his hand, Xin Jiu and Xin Thirteen quickly walked out of the room.

He has really done all the preparations that should be made, and next, it depends on whether the seed master Dao and others have the ability to completely turn his strategic ideas into reality!

Although Master Xuyi is still by Xin Xi's side recently, he is no longer as worried as before.

After all, he has followed Xin Shiyi all the way, and has gradually gained a deeper understanding of Xin Shiyi, especially that there are 700,000 troops gathered here!

Think about it, if Xin Shiyi feels that the time is ripe to rebuild the Western Regions Protectorate, the 700,000 troops will go to Tianzhu, how can the 100,000 remnants of the Gupta Dynasty be able to resist it?!

The revitalization of Buddhism is just around the corner!

Inside Luoyang City.

Yang Xiang looked at the letter in his hand and frowned slightly, the letter was sent by the Shadow Guard, it was Xin Xi's letter.

In the letter, Xin Shiyi asked the Yang family to prepare to quickly transport the purchased grain to Xining Prefecture.

But Yang Xiang frowned, first of all, this time the purchase of grain, a total of about 3 million stone rice and 1.6 million stone chestnut rice, but if it is really transported to Xining Prefecture, the cost on the road is too great.

Not to mention how much to eat, it would cost nearly 30,000 yuan to maintain such a transportation team.

More importantly, Xin Xi also said in the letter that there will be the cooperation of the imperial court transfer envoy for this transportation.

The problem is here, none of the more than 20 transshipment envoys in the Great Song Dynasty has a clean butt, as long as it passes through the hands of the transshipment envoys, ten percent of the goods can be left, and at most ninety percent can be left.

Moreover, if there is a small problem, the group of transshipment envoys will make a set of support for the family......

Hesitating, Yang Cheng walked in.

"Xin Shiyi asked to transport the purchased grain to Xining Prefecture." Yang Xiang spoke indifferently, but there was a bit of worry in his tone.

When Yang Cheng heard this, his eyes lit up all of a sudden: "This is a good thing!" Didn't I tell you before, Xin Xi must have planned to sell grain to Western Xia and Tibet, and it must have been sold at a high price! So, isn't it time to return the favor by sending these grains to Xining Prefecture?! ”

Yang Xiang nodded: "However, Xin Shiyi also plans to let the official family use the route of the transfer envoy to transport it." ”

Hearing this, Yang Cheng also frowned slightly, and then, he smiled: "Since it was invited by Shiyi Lang, presumably those transshipment envoys would not dare to go too far, after all, it is impossible for Xin Shiyi not to take this into account, and besides, a total of 4.6 million stone grain, relying on the way of the commercial house alone, I am afraid that it will not take three months to send it all to Xining Prefecture!" ”

Yang Xiang nodded and said, "Then wait for the official will, when the time comes, the commercial bank and the transshipment will be!" ”

…………

Bianjing, inside the Imperial Palace.

Han Qi has not returned to Bianjing yet, according to the news, but when he arrives in Shuzhong, if he wants to get to Bianjing, it will take about five or six days, and if it is slower, it will take about ten days.

But Zhao Shu had already lived back in the palace, after all, Han Qi's letter had been delivered to Zhao Shu and Empress Dowager Cao, the two read the content of the letter, and felt that Han Qi was very reasonable, so Empress Dowager Cao was not so arrogant, and Zhao Shu also began to deal with some government affairs.

It's just that about Zhao Shu's father's status, both sides have a tacit understanding not to mention it.

Looking at the letter in his hand, Zhao Shu smiled slightly, this Xin Shiyi!

After the declarative words of the letter requesting the activation of the transportation system of the transshipment envoy to transport all the grain purchased by the Yang family firm to Xining Prefecture, Xin Shiyi did not forget to threaten him.

"The transfer makes those dirty roads, the minister also knows, and there is no trouble for them through those dirty things on weekdays, this time, how much food there is, the minister knows it, and His Majesty should also know it, and I hope that His Majesty will remind those guys that this operation is for the Jiangshan Society of the Great Song Dynasty, if it is missing, Hugh blames Xin for killing people indiscriminately!"

"Murder?!"

Zhao Shu was angry, but he actually couldn't do anything about it.

After all, if Xin Xi really wants to kill people, with the Shadow Guard Army in his hands, in this Great Song Dynasty, except in the army, or in this palace, there are really few people who can escape Xin Xi's murderous intent.

Of course, it also depends on Xin Zhen's murderous intent and determination, if the determination is not enough, in the face of some possible costs, Xin Xi may not be willing to do that kind of thing that harms others and is not beneficial to himself, such as killing someone from a certain family, once he kills someone from that family, then the Shadow Guards will either be ruthless and destroy the family, or, they can only give up that place in disgrace and no longer collect information about that place.

This is limited to the total number of Shadow Guards, and it is a problem that cannot be avoided.

Smiling, Zhao Shu took the pen, grabbed a piece of new bamboo paper from the industry under the name of Xin Xi, and started writing: "The transfer envoy of the Gyeonggi East Road cooperated with the world's merchants to transport 4.6 million stone of grain to Xining Prefecture, 4.6 million stone, not a single grain is indispensable, otherwise, the three clans will be punished!" ”

After writing it, Zhao Shu called an old eunuch and asked the old eunuch to send this will to the Zhongshu Province.

Anyway, every time the holy decree, as the emperor, he just expressed his meaning, and then, the guys in Zhongshu Province went to polish the pen, and finally made it into a four-character prose pattern, copied it on the bright yellow holy decree, and then turned back and stamped it with a big seal and issued it.

Therefore, Zhao Shu wrote very casually.

Two hours later, a decree was issued from Zhongshu Province, and the Gyeonggi East Road Transit Envoy received the holy decree and quickly mobilized the personnel under the Transit Envoy's command, first went to Luoyang to visit the Yang family, and then went to Shuzhong to gather.

Yizhou in Shuzhong is the place where businessmen from all over the world gather, so the grain purchased from the whole world will basically be transported to Shuzhong and hoarded.

Two days later, outside the city of Yizhou, the ox carts, horse-drawn carts, and donkey carts of the brigade drove out of the city and headed for Jiannan Road, which was once the Tang Dynasty in the northwest.

At the same time, in Gahai, the Seed Master Dao finally gathered the 30,000 troops that had been broken into pieces.

To be honest, he led 30,000 troops for the first time, and he was still a little excited.

But because it was the first time, after turning it into parts, he almost couldn't turn it into a whole again!

It was also thanks to the Shadow Guard Army that provided a lot of information, otherwise, it would take at least three or five days for him to regather the 30,000 troops.

The 30,000-strong army was gathered in a small oasis, and the Tibetans did not have much to deploy in this vicinity, no, even the ordinary herdsmen had been driven away.

After all, after the vicinity of this Gahai was used as a granary to store grain, in order to keep it secret, the Nongdieer Department and the Hugeda Department joined forces to clear the Blue Sky Valley within a radius of 100 miles.

The Seed Master Dao sat in the center, and to his left and right were a dozen or so senior officers who controlled the 30,000-strong army, all of whom were fifth- to fourth-rank officials.

Among these people, many of them are middle-aged people in their thirties and forties, in other words, these people are all old qualifications, and naturally there are many people who do not accept the way of the seed master.

But in the same way, the Seed Master Dao also brought his cronies from his own Seed Army, otherwise, he really might not be able to command this army.

"It's already been investigated!" Seed Master Dao didn't care about the faces of those old seniors at all, and said directly: "Within a hundred miles of Gahai, it was cleared as early as three months ago, and there are no ordinary Tubo people, but, at the same time, within this hundred miles, there are also a lot of scouts arranged because of this. ”

Speaking of this, the planter stood up: "Therefore, it is necessary to have an elite enough army to kill all the scouts arranged by Tubo with lightning speed!" Kill it silently. ”

"So, who wants to go?!" The Planter Dao raised his head and looked at the people around him.

"My subordinates are willing to go!"

"The last will go!"

………… There were dense shouts, but the seed master Dao was a little sad to find that the people who spoke were all the cronies he brought, and those old guys were all in a daze with the old god!

Shaking his head slightly, the cultivator Dao's heart finally became ruthless, and said, "General Lin, are you willing to go?!" ”

Lin Yue, who was shouted, was an old senior, already thirty-five or sixteen years old.

Lin Yue smiled coldly: "The old man thinks that it is very suitable for you to go to Erlang, and the old man is more suitable to be the commander of this 30,000 army!" ”

"Really?!" The Seed Master suddenly spoke, and there was no joy or anger in his tone.

"Yes, the force of Chong Erlang, that is the first in Qingjian City, and it is the first in the Seed Army, it is very suitable to be this commando!" Lin Yue still sneered, and the other senior people around him laughed along.

Seed Master Dao shook his head and said, "Originally, Seed Mou also planned to give you a chance to make meritorious contributions...... But now it seems that it is no wonder that you have been in the Western Army for more than ten years and are still like this! ”

"Someone! Take it all down for me! The planter's voice fell, and his cronies around him swarmed up, and in a moment, thirteen old seniors were pressed down on the grass in embarrassment.

"Bundle up! Leave ten people to take care of them, and when the war is over, the commander will personally send them to the commander to convict them! The seed master snorted, and then said: "Wu Yao, you take three hundred people, go and pick three hundred good hands yourself, go all the way, and kill all the scouts in Tubo!" ”

The guy known as Wu Yao quickly left as ordered.

Seed Master Dao glanced coldly at the thirteen old seniors and turned to leave.

The army is moving!

Three days later, on the upper floor of Gahaibao City, a Song flag was hung, the main flag was written with the Song character, UU read the book .net, and the flag behind the main flag was written with a big seed character!

At the same time, the Seed Tree took down the entire Daochuan River and began to deploy defenses on the south side of the Daochuan River.

At the same time, some members of the Shadow Guard Army sent information to Zhou Zhao, Seed Master Dao and Seed Tree in Tubo respectively!

Seed Master Dao looked at the information in his hand, slightly speechless, Tubo sent out a large army, a total of 140,000, ready to attack Gahai, and at the same time sent 60,000 troops, ready to recapture the Daochuan River.

Both the Seed Master Dao and the Seed Master can only choose to strengthen the defense, but Zhou Zhao is a little hesitant, he only has 30,000 people in his hands, if they are separated, whether it is against Gahai or the Fallen River, it will be of no use!

It stands to reason that Gahai's side is more important, but with his 30,000, it is only 60,000 against 140,000, and it is still difficult to win.

Therefore, it is better to go to the river first, and after helping the seed to repel the enemy army, borrow 20,000 troops from the seed and gather 50,000 before leaving for Gahai?!

Thinking like this, Zhou Zhao could only drag the Shadow Guards to send his thoughts to the Seed Master Dao, and he took an army of 30,000 and went south to the river!
