After the training ground is fenced, the follow-up drills of the recruits soon began, the first ten days, Zhao Ziliang came to the scene every day to guide, by the marching Sima Chen Qing is responsible for the implementation, because the previous basic training subjects have basically been completed on the way to come, and then the infantry will carry out formation drills, squad tactical cooperation, brigade tactical cooperation and the training of the whole army tactical cooperation, while carrying out the training of these subjects, the basic subjects should be strengthened, and the 20 kilometers in the morning and evening of the fully armed rapid march rain or shine, thunder and thunder, Every once in a while, there would be an emergency assembly in the middle of the night for a long-distance attack, sometimes a rapid march for two days and two nights in a row, and a round trip of four or five hundred miles, training these recruits to ******** and crying without tears.
After a month like this, everything was on track.
On the sixth night of the fourth month of the sixth year of Tianbao, Zhao Ziliang had just had dinner with his wife and children and prepared to go to the barracks to patrol the camp.
Wang Can was covered in dust and dust, and arched his hand: "General, there will be something important to report at the end!" ”
"Oh?" Seeing his expression, Zhao Ziliang stopped patrolling the barracks, and immediately said, "Follow me to the study!" ”
The two came to the study, a maid brought twice the hot tea and retreated, Zhao Ziliang stretched out his hand and said, "Take a sip of tea!" ”
Wang Can picked up the teacup and poured a sip of tea, put down the teacup and said, "General, the last general has already made contact with the intelligence system on the side of the Broken Leaf Governor's Mansion!" ”
Zhao Ziliang's expression remained unchanged and asked, "Who are you contacting?" ”
Wang Can said: "Chen Mingqian! ”
"Chen Langzhong?" Zhao Ziliang was stunned for a moment and sighed: "I haven't seen him for many years, is he okay?" ”
Wang Can nodded and said: "Chen Langzhong is very good, after the general and we left Broken Leaf City to go to Chang'an, Chen Langzhong took over our intelligence system in the Anxi area, and often provided intelligence support for the Broken Leaf Governor's Mansion, but later when it came to the power dispute within the Broken Leaf Governor's Mansion, Chen Langzhong had to give up his position, and now the Broken Leaf Governor's Mansion is called Lu Chun, but the entire intelligence system needs a lot of financial support to maintain its operation, and these funds have been provided by the general, So the whole system is still firmly controlled by Chen Mingqian! ”
"That's good!" Zhao Ziliang breathed a sigh of relief, if the intelligence system is mastered by others, and he has no intelligence system support here, he is afraid that he will have to re-establish the intelligence system, and it will not be able to form a scale without a year or two, and the re-establishment of the intelligence system requires a lot of financial support, which is a trivial matter, and the key is that it is not a simple matter to train intelligence personnel.
Zhao Ziliang asked: "Who is the current Governor of the Broken Leaf Governor's Mansion?" ”
Wang Can said: "It's still Laizhen, the Broken Leaf Governor's Mansion is now under the jurisdiction of the Beiting Governor's Mansion, and Lord Lai Zhen is in charge of the Beiting, the location of Broken Leaf City is very important, and he is not at ease to let others guard it, so in the past seven or eight years, Lai Zhen has been serving as the governor of the Broken Leaf Governor's Mansion, the last time Mohe Dagan rebelled, General Fumeng was ordered to send troops to quell the rebellion, and Lord Lai Zhen assisted in the response, Lai Zhen also contributed a lot in that battle, and his performance was very good, and now he has been added by the imperial court to General Xuanwei!" ”
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said: "In this way, you take the time to contact him, and transfer some elites from the previous intelligence system to you, and you will use these people as the basis plus the intelligence network you used to operate in Chang'an, and merge the two to form a separate spy network, this spy network does not overlap with the intelligence system he is now responsible for, the intelligence network he is responsible for is called 'spider web', which is specifically responsible for external intelligence collection, and your newly formed spy organization is called ' Tianyan', specially responsible for the investigation of news within Datang! I will allocate the money you need to you alone, you should do this matter as soon as possible, your spy network 'Sky Eye' is not organized by the government, and is only responsible for me alone, and you can choose a hidden location for the office location as soon as possible."
Wang Can arched his hand and said, "Understood! ”
"That's right! General, the last general brought back a piece of news from Chen Mingqian this time, the raid on Xilin last October was the stepping force of the Xigarlu people! The reason why the Treading Power Department raided Xilin to defend and capture was because the leader of the Treading Power Department was called Lu Li, and he and the leader of the Eastern Ge Lulu Wu Li were brothers of the same mother, and I don't know who told him that it was my Datang who killed Wu Li and destroyed Dong Ge Lulu, so he took revenge for personal gain that time! ”
"It turns out that someone is stirring! It seems that this provocateur has evil intentions! Zhao Ziliang said, and after a little thought, asked, "What is the strength of the Xigarlu people now?" ”
Wang Can had already found out clearly, and he said: "The Plot Division has 6,000 soldiers, the Stepping Strength Department has 8,000 troops, and the Chiqi Department has 6,000 troops!" ”
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said, "If the cavalry of the Stepping Strength Department wants to raid my Xilin Guard, they must pass through the Hulu Bureau of the Plot Landing Department and the Five Ground Departments along the way?" Que Si, these two tribes turned a blind eye to the stepping power forces that passed through their territory, and they were afraid that there was a big mystery in this! ”
Wang Can asked, "Since the general knows about this, what are his plans?" ”
Zhao Ziliang thought for a moment and said: "In a few days, General Ben wants to go to Moon Bow City to visit the leader of the Heluo Shi Division, and then turn around to the Mouluo Division, and then go back to the Huluju Department and the Sethai Division, you go with me!" ”
"No!" Wang Can agreed, and said, "I don't know how many men and horses the general plans to bring?" ”
Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "It's not really going to attack them and add you, I only take the Whirlwind Eighteen Cavalry and Nuer!" Everyone else can do whatever they want! ”
Wang Can was stunned for a moment, and said worriedly: "General, I'm afraid that this is not appropriate, since our dynasty exterminated Mohe Dagan, the people of the Five Bases Land Department have been very hostile to our dynasty, and the general only brought such a few people over, is it too few, in case the Hu people turn their faces, shouldn't they suffer?" ”
Zhao Ziliang waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, all the eighteen horsemen of the whirlwind can be a hundred, plus Nur, it can be worth three thousand troops, if you want to take me, even if the whole clan of them is on the field, it will only serve me food, this matter is so decided, don't inform Hu Luju in advance, let's go over temporarily to see their reaction!" ”
"The last general understands!"
On the ninth day of the fourth month, Zhao Ziliang asked Gao Shi, Cen Shen, Chen Qing, Gong Ren, Zheng San and others to perform their duties, and the training and repair of the city walls and houses were carried out as usual, while he took Wang Can, Nuer, and the Whirlwind Eighteen Cavalry to the west in full gear.
Riding a horse to the west, passing through a small moraine (i.e., a small desert) on the way, riding a horse and galloping for sixty or seventy miles to reach the yellow grass park, this yellow grass park is actually a saltwater lake, the lake is surrounded by the influence of the lake water salt too heavy and forms a desert, the color of the vegetation is yellow, so it is called the yellow grass park.
Starting from the Huangcaobo diversion to the southwest, and continuing to the southwest after crossing the Shiqi River, this road is the New North Silk Road, which is the only way.
There was not much time along the way, and Zhao Ziliang and the others did not walk fast, but they also arrived at Moon Bow City in the afternoon of the next day.
Moon Bow City used to be no city, this is the Tang army hit here, built up a garrison fort, not big or small, after the rise of Sulu Khan, the Tang army's military defense line shrank not only gave up here, but also gave up the town of broken leaves.
Zhao Ziliang and others were dressed in Tang army armor, which alarmed the He Luoshi cavalry who were patrolling outside, and the four horsemen quickly rode over and shouted loudly, and asked Zhao Ziliang and others about their identities.
Zhao Ziliang nodded to Wang Can, and Wang Can said to the four horsemen: "Go and report to your leader that the Khan has been transferred, and say that General Zhao Ziliang is coming to visit, and let him quickly put out a guard of honor to greet him!" ”
Zhao Ziliang, you have been away from Broken Leaf City for seven or eight years, and it is not surprising that some young cavalry of the Tucai Shi do not know his name, and the four rangers were immediately furious when they heard Wang Can's words, and one of them scolded in Turkic: "What a gut, what bullshit Zhao Ziliang, we haven't heard of it, and you are ashamed to let us move the Khan out to greet you?" I think you Tang soldiers are living impatiently."
Before the man finished speaking, he saw that Zhao Ziliang had already opened his bow in his hand, and three sharp arrows were shot out at the same time, "whoosh" three times, and the three He Luo Shi rangers fell off their horses and died in response to the arrows, and the remaining one He Luo Shi rangers looked left and right, and began to sweat on their foreheads, their faces turned pale with fright, and they trembled all over.
Zhao Ziliang put down the treasure carving bow and said indifferently: "Leave your life, go and report to your transfer khan, just I, Zhao Ziliang, are back, let him raise his clan ten miles out of the city to greet him, otherwise this general will slaughter his He Luo Shi department!" ”
The transfer khan used to be a minister under Mohe Dagan, and the Heluo Shi department was greatly injured since Mohe Dagan was exterminated by Fumeng Lingcha, Mohe Dagan was killed, and a large number of young people in the clan died in that battle, leaving only most of the old and weak women and children and less than 2,000 people who controlled the strings, and the transfer khan was also elected by the elders of the clan to be the khan of the Heluo Shi department after that, he was too much water and insufficient strength, and his life was relatively miserable.
Where did the Nahoro Shi Ranger dare to stay, he immediately hit his horse and turned around and galloped away.
Watching the ranger flee, Zhao Ziliang inserted the treasure carving bow into the bow sac and said: "Others don't know my name Zhao Ziliang, this transfer khan must know, now his clan is the worst, if he doesn't want to be exterminated, he doesn't dare not be disrespectful to this general!" Let's go, the people of the other Helushi tribe have waited too long."
"No!" Everyone agreed to beat the horse and keep up with Zhao Ziliang.
But it was said that the ranger galloped into Moon Bow City, came to the palace of the Khan, and stumbled in all the way out of breath, shouting as he ran: "Newspaper-newspaper-". (To be continued.) )
