Chapter 624 The Horse Farm is in hand

Fei Guyang's life is not very easy, his only son has fallen into the hands of Ding*, can he not be in a hurry? Fei Guyang didn't send a letter asking the King of Yeling to talk to the Han people, because he knew that it was useless to go to the letter, and it was estimated that the King of Yeling was now looking forward to the Han people cutting Fei Dong with a knife. For a long time, the Turgish tribe has been a big problem for the Yeling King, and the Yeling King wants to cut off the Tuqishi tribe, but there is no good way, and now the opportunity has come. As soon as Fei Dong died, the Turgish would lose its future leader, and there would be civil strife, so that the Yeling King would be able to use some means.

In any case, Fei Guyang wanted to save Fei Dong's life, not only because Fei Dong was his son, but also for the sake of the tribe. However, Fei Guyang was also very hesitant, because he had never dealt with the Han people, especially His Royal Highness the King of Qin, but he heard that this person was wise and wise, fierce and domineering, could he spare his son's life, and if he could, what price would he have to pay? In a few days, Fei Guyang had already thought very clearly, he could form an alliance with Ding*, and even draw troops to help Ding*, but he could completely turn to Ding* and become a member of the Qin Wangfu, he couldn't do it, first of all, he would be strongly dissatisfied by the clansmen, and secondly, if he did that, the Xixia people would definitely join forces with the Yeling King and destroy the Turgish tribe first. Fei Guyang is not a national warrior who is not afraid of death and has noble sentiments, he is not opposed to submitting to the King of Qin, but at least he must defeat the Tanguts first and occupy the Tangut Kingdom, because in that way, the Tuqishi tribe will not have to suffer from two sides. Moreover, Fei Guyang also clearly knows the bottom line of the Tangut people, and the Tangut people can turn a blind eye to the cooperation between the Tuqishi tribe and Ding*, but if they really fall to Ding*. The Tangut people will definitely spare their strength to first smooth out the unstable dìng factor of Tuqishi.

Yizhou City has long been quiet, only Fei Guyang did not feel sleepy, suddenly there was a strange noise, and when he came to the outhouse, he saw a few more people in the house.

"Who are you?" Fei Guyang did not scold loudly. If these people had any malicious intent, he Fei Guyang would have died a long time ago.

The person who came arched his hand, and as soon as he spoke, he heard that it was a woman, "Leader Fei, the little maid Mei Jian of His Royal Highness King Qin." Today, on the orders of the master, I will send a letter to Leader Fei! ”

Mei Jian handed a letter to Fei Guyang, took two steps back and waited quietly. Fei Guyang frowned slightly, he didn't rush to read the letter, but looked at the two women beside Mei Jian. It's really strange why these two people who are as cold as ice are even more amazing than Mei Jian's momentum. Knowing that Fei Guyang was hesitating, Sanniang raised her eyebrows and said softly, "Leader Fei, let's get an idea quickly, your son's life is still in your hands." It's too late, but it's going to be back to King Yeling. ”

In Sanniang's words, there was a bit of a threat. Fei Guyang was shocked, didn't dare to hesitate any longer, opened the letter and read it a few times. Sitting in the chair, Fei Guyang seemed very quiet, but the wrinkles on his forehead had betrayed him. It really deserves to be Zhao Yougong, the king of Qin. I thought everything was so far-reaching. In fact, the content of the letter is very simple, as long as Fei Guyang waives his troops to occupy Xizhou. You can save your life and send Fei Dong back safely.

Attack on Xizhou. Hehe, to do that would be to completely tear his face with the Yeling King, and there will be no room for relaxation from now on. Turning his face with the Yeling King, he Fei Guyang must find a backer for the Tuqishi tribe, relying solely on the Tuqishi tribe, he can't fight the Yeling King. Today's Turgish tribe is no longer the Tiger Division tribe on the banks of the Ili River, the Turgish tribe at that time supported the Turks over three tiger divisions, and now, a single tiger division can't hold up. Looking for the Tanguts? No, the Tangut people are too busy to take care of themselves, can they keep the Tuqishi tribe, it seems that the only thing left is to cooperate with Ding*. Fei Guyang was very unwilling, but he had no other choice, and after a long time, he nodded and said, "Go back and tell His Royal Highness King Qin, I should take Xizhou, and I hope His Royal Highness can be trustworthy." ”

"Leader Fei, don't worry, Your Highness doesn't need to lie to you" Sanniang smiled contemptuously, this kind of look made Fei Guyang very uncomfortable, but it is also a fact, the current Qin King Zhao Yougong really doesn't need to lie to him Fei Guyang, a Fei Dong, what can he decide?

On March 21, the fifth year of Xuanhe, on this day when the grass was new and the sun was shining, the army of the Yeling King who was facing the north of Datun City got a bad news. Just the day before yesterday, the city lord of Yizhou, the leader of the Turgish tribe Fei Guyang opened the gate of Xizhou and raided Xizhou, just overnight, the Uighur capital of Xizhou changed hands, at the same time, there was a strange army from the Tianshan Mountains, it took only two hours, to occupy the empty Beiting Beidi Bali City, and then, those uninvited guests let go of the Beishi City, and the soldiers of the Tuqi Shi tribe quickly garrisoned the city. In just one day, Beiting and Xizhou changed hands, which meant that the entire Yining prairie from Xizhou to Yizhou fell into the hands of Fei Guyang. Today's Turgish tribe is no longer a small tribe cowering in Yizhou City, they have the bridgehead of Xizhou, and the Yining Prairie as a buffer, and the Beishi Bali City in the north can also be used as horns and support each other in Xizhou.

King Yeling's face was pale, because Fei Guyang not only occupied Xizhou, but also killed King Yeling's family, of course, Fei Guyang was understandable to do this, because if he King Yeling occupied Yizhou, he would also kill Fei Guyang's family. Against the enemy, cutting the grass without eradicating the roots, in the end, it is to raise tigers and cause trouble to themselves.

At this point, the Yeling King felt that he had no reason to stay near Datun City any longer, and if he stayed any longer, once Fei Guyang's troops left Xizhou and attacked Yanqi Town and Anxi City, it would be a shortage of supplies. On the twenty-second day of March, the army of the Yeling King retreated at night, but this qiē could not be concealed from the spies. After getting the news of the retreat of the Yeling King, Zhao Yougong sent Lin Chong and Pang He, two generals, to lead the cavalry to pursue, this battle is not a simple pursuit, not only to let the Yeling King lose his troops and lose the general, but also not to let the Yeling King be too badly injured, to do this, Lin Chong and Pang He must be. Send Gao Zhong and Shi Wengong to go? These two people are powerful, but it is estimated that the soldiers and horses of the Yeling King will be lost by more than half.

Zhao Yougong has a deep meaning in doing this, although Fei Guyang is opposed, he may not be of the same mind as him Zhao, and it is only in the best interest to let the Yeling King and Fei Guyang confront the Uighurs. Now that the Yeling King has lost two battles, he is still strong, maybe if he goes back to rest, he can defeat Fei Guyang and recapture Xizhou, so he must weaken the strength of the Yeling King, at least in a short period of time, he can't let the Yeling King have the intention of attacking Xizhou. Of course, it is not possible to let the Yeling King suffer too heavy losses, in that case, Fei Guyang will wipe out the Yeling King and unify the Uighurs, and his ambitions will inevitably swell and wave his troops to attack Datun City.

Lin Chong and Pang He chased and killed all the way, and the speed of the pursuit was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and it was enough to toss the Yeling King. However, fortunately, the Yeling King rushed back to Yanqi Town in time, if he came back two days later, Fei Guyang would have captured more than just a Korla City, and perhaps even Yanqi Town, an important town in the north, would have to suffer.

On March 27, the situation in the Uighurs finally calmed down, in fact, from the beginning to the end, except for a fierce battle outside Datun City, he did not participate in many battles, but Fei Guyang and Yeling King fought inextricably. Sometimes Xiao Zhiyun also felt that His Royal Highness Zhao was quite yin, and he was a good Uighur, so that he tossed the war everywhere, and now Fei Guyang and the King of Yeling are like mortal enemies, I am afraid that the Uighurs will not be peaceful in the future. What's even more helpless is that in the end, it is the least effort to make the biggest profit, although there are only Datun City and Ruoqiang, but most of the horse farms near the Peacock River and Puchanghai are in their hands, for His Royal Highness Zhao, he has two purposes for this expedition to the northwest, the first purpose is to arrest people, to open a canal in Guanzhong to grab enough free labor, the second purpose is to occupy the horse farm as much as possible, to solve the problem of the source of war horses, now, these two purposes have been achieved, as for other things, they are just done easily.

Since the establishment of Ding*, the infantry and artillery have made great progress, only the cavalry cannot be expanded on a large scale, and until now there are only 10,000 people. It's not that there is a lack of cavalry, but a lack of war horses, one person and three horses, standard configuration, Zhao Yougong wants elite cavalry, but he can't ride a horse.

At the end of the Uighur war, Zhao Yougong sent a letter to Bianliang on a fast horse, and then he took it upon himself to make Lin Chong the deputy envoy of the Privy Council. With Meng Ke as the commander of the Northwest Daobu Army, stationed in Qingtang City, Deng Yuanjue led the horse army to be in charge, responsible for defending Qinghai, and galloping to aid Datun City at any time. At this point, Zhao Yougong used his strong military strength to put all the Qinghai area and the southern part of the Hetao grassland in the northwest into his hands. As Ding* expanded its power, it was not the Tibetans, the Uighurs, or the Tocharians who were most disturbed, but the Tanguts.

In Xuanhua Mansion, Li Bingzuo sat by the pond fishing for fish, so sleepy that he knew that this old highness was not thinking about fishing. Li Bingzuo has been thinking about finding a way out for the Great Xia Kingdom, because if it continues like this, the Great Xia Kingdom will be in danger. Now Wu Jue and Liu Jian occupy Yinzhou and Hengshan, and Pang He led the army to garrison Qinfeng Road, and the eastern and southern parts of the Great Xia Kingdom were facing great pressure, and now Zhao Yougong has been fighting all the way, turning Qinghai, the Uighurs and the southern Uighurs into his own sphere of influence, and stationed Datun City with Lin Chong, forming an alliance with Fei Guyang, in a blink of an eye, the three directions of the east, west and south of the Great Xia Kingdom have been blocked, and the north is the territory of the Liao people. But what to do? Li Bingzuo really can't think of a good way, in the final analysis, the strength of the Great Xia Kingdom is too weak, if there is a strong force like the Liao, it is completely possible to deploy heavy troops in the east, in case of Wu Jue, and then use the army to conquer Lin Chong in the west, and forcibly tear a hole in the west, but I can only think about it, with the current strength of the Great Xia Kingdom, I can only take care of one side.
