Jizhou Hou Zhang Fen, this is another famous marquis of Tianzhu, although not as good as Jiang Guohou, but it is also the princes of Tianzhu who occupy a place among the top princes.

And this Jizhou Marquis seems to have had another intersection with Li Zhe, that is, when the Tianzhu envoys set off to Beijing to participate in the big sacrifice, Zhang Fen's son Zhang Bohao once died at the hands of Li Zhe with the son of Jiang Guohou's family. Although nothing happened in the end of that incident, Jiang Guohou and Jizhou Hou did not show any signs of resentment against the imperial court because of the death of the prince.

Although the imperial court strengthened the monitoring of the movements of the two marquis' domains after that time, just in case, the fiefdoms of the two marquis' families never showed any instability.

Of course, even so, the imperial court will not relax its monitoring of the two families, after all, even if this kind of political matter seems to be calm on the surface, it does not necessarily mean that the two families have no resentment, in short, the necessary measures must always be necessary, this is the country, everything is to be prepared for emergencies.

For example, Jiang Guohou and Jizhou Hou are also in the border areas, and after the news of the excellent armaments of the imperial court spread some time ago, they also came to purchase ordnance.

Border princes like them generally have to bear the heavy responsibility of border defense, and compared with the inland princes' actions to prepare armaments, it is naturally much greater.

The purpose of these princes to purchase a large amount of ordnance from Mengzhou was, of course, ambitious.

Since the imperial court was able to defeat King Ning in one fell swoop with these weapons and pocket the entire Manraka, why couldn't they, who also had these new weapons, defeat the Hu people?

As the princes of the Great Song Dynasty, these people's greed for land was endless. The great martial arts of Li Zhe and others deeply stimulated these old powerhouses of Tianzhu.

Jizhou Hou Zhang Fen's western expedition was launched a month ago, almost the ordnance purchased from the imperial court had just arrived, and he had not even trained for a few days before leading his private army to kill the Ilkhanate.

Even the various departments of the imperial court didn't expect him to be able to defeat Xihu like this? It was an army of 50,000 led by the general of the Ilkhanate, and the Marquis of Jizhou himself, which was thousands of paces to ride.

If the Marquis of Jizhou had anything to rely on in this battle, then the only thing that could play a role was probably the batch of Li's guns and artillery purchased back from Mengzhou.

And how can these new guns play such a big role in the war?

Or is Sihu no longer good?

In the past, Xihu was the junction of the Ilkhanate and Tianzhu, and Tianzhu had three marquis, seven or eight counts, adding up to dozens of hereditary nobles, and now only the Marquis of Jizhou could defeat Xihu and go straight into its interior.

In the current battlefield situation, Zhang Fen, the Marquis of Jizhou, led the army to advance into Balochi, and Xihu's commander in Balochi, Wanfu Changzhe, only had 10,000 households in his hands, so how could he block the front and rear attacks of the Hou Zhangjia of Jizhou and the other princes of Tianzhu?

Could it be that Xihu has been weak to such an extent for hundreds of years, and it only takes a few local princes of Tianzhu to gnaw such a big piece from each other?

Although Zhuhu has indeed become more and more declining over the years, no one could have imagined that it has become so weak.

The important thing about this news is not how beautiful the battle of the Hou Zhang family of Jizhou was, but the important thing is that such a war shows the weakness of the four great khanates of the Mongols, Xihu, and ignites the ambitions of Tianzhu's subordinates and the border princes on its borders, and what kind of changes will this ambition bring to Tianzhu today?

The queen who returned to the palace of An quickly asked the officials of the Governor's Mansion to quickly enter the palace to meet and discuss the situation of Tianzhu's western frontier after this battle.

On the map, Balochistan, the largest province in the southwest of Pakistan bordering India in later times, is now all surrounded by the Tianzhu side, and a huge shoulder representing the Zhang family of Jizhou Marquis in the rear is rapidly moving south, enveloping the Baloch Hu commander Zheyehu from behind, and in front, including the two marquis of Quzhou and the marquis of Juping, as well as the border defense line of three or four counts.

The imperial court now does not know whether the Marquis of Quzhou and the Marquis of Juping have moved troops now.

But in the current situation, since the Marquis of Jizhou has created such an excellent situation for the two marquises, it would be stupid for these princes not to know how to use their troops by taking advantage of the situation.

These border princes don't want to shock the world like the Marquis of Heaven.

Being in the rear, it is impossible for the imperial court to get the real-time battle situation on the front line, but the rough inference should be that this should be the case.

After deducing the battle situation, Hong Yan, the officer who stayed behind in the Governor's Mansion, said:

"Tetsuya is finished!"

"His current battle situation is the resurrection of Sun Wu, I'm afraid it can't be reversed! However, if he reacts quickly enough, he should be able to escape from the encirclement of several marquis, but if he reacts a little slowly, the opportunity will be fleeting. ”

"But he is still the governor of Balochistan, and he has the responsibility to defend the territory, so he is not so easy to decide?"

"Yes, so if it's normal, I'm afraid Tetsuya is indeed very lucky this time."

Hong Yanyan was also one of the several talents in Mengzhou recommended by Fang Jueyuan to Li Zhe at the beginning, and he has always had a good relationship with Li Zhe, because of Li Zhe's borrowing, those talents at the beginning are now stepping into the court one after another, and the future is bright.

And several other people are civil officials, only Hong Yanyan abandoned literature and martial arts, and followed Li Zhe into the Governor's Mansion, and now in the Governor's Mansion, he is one of Li Zhe's powerful assistants in the Governor's Mansion, and he is in the position of counselor of the Governor's Mansion, with a third-class military rank, and he is already a long-term talent who can control one side.

Since he judged the battle situation in this way on behalf of the Governor's Mansion, the result would be eight or nine.

When the queen heard this conclusion, her phoenix eyebrows were deeply locked, and she didn't know whether to be happy or worried.

"Then Hong Qing means that this time Baloch has fallen into my hands after all."

"Yes." Hong Yan replied.

"So after getting Baluchistan, will the Ilkhanate Khan be angry and prepare for war again, and it will evolve into a real war between the two sides?"

"Or, does Hong Qing think that in this war, how should the imperial court deal with itself, should it also send troops to the north, lead the monarchs, and integrate the forces of the princes in the west to fight the Xihu war? It is still time to strictly restrain the princes and limit the scale of the war to the extent that the imperial court can control it. ”

The queen still has something to say, but I believe Hong Yanyan must understand - now the imperial court's energy is all focused on the cross-sea expedition in the east, but now there is a sudden big war in the west, although such a war seems to be victorious, but it is definitely beyond the expectations of the imperial court.

Now the question is, what should the imperial court do? in order to control the situation.

This war was definitely not what the court and the queen wanted to see.
