Qin Hui was speechless by Qian Heng's words, but he always felt that Qian Heng put himself in the most dangerous situation, which was not something that Qin Hui could understand.

There is one thing that Qian Heng did not explain, that is, his peep at Western Xia.

Qian Heng didn't think about making any big moves, but there was one thing, Western Xia invaded the Great Song Dynasty from time to time, and the only way to break this situation was to directly destroy the opponent's army.

On the border of the Suide Army's territory, there are two garrisons of the Western Xia Supervisory Military Division, which is a threat that Qian Heng absolutely does not allow.

Therefore, from the day he received the day he was asked to govern the Suide Army, Qian Heng began to play the idea of these two garrisons.

It was also with the courage to kill Li Liangfu for the first time that Qian Heng had the courage to worry about these two garrison divisions.

After all, this kind of garrison is a little weaker than the army that went to the battlefield in Western Xia.

Especially on the way to his post, Qian Heng read the topographic map of the Suide Army's garrison several times, plus the detailed topographic map of Western Xia that he had turned over in Yanzhou, Qian Heng also confirmed his memory.

Many of the places marked on the map were different in later generations, but from the Suide army to the north, there is a very beautiful place, which has a very intuitive name in later generations, called the Hetao Plain.

In today's Hetao area, because most of the area has not been developed, there is only one garrison in the Western Xia, and it is adjacent to the Liao State, and with the close relationship between the two countries, the actual combat power of the garrison is extremely weak.

A very important reason for Qian Heng's idea over there was also to take into account the strategy of reopening the Silk Road.

If Qian Heng sits in Dengzhou, he will not worry about his way to make money at all.

But in the hinterland of the northwest, the only thing that can be done is to restart commercial exchanges along the Silk Road.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, the Liao Kingdom of Western Xia has been fighting one after another, and the trading habits of the Silk Road have gradually been broken.

The Hexi Corridor through which the Silk Road passes is all in the territory of Western Xia, and the most familiar section is also the most prosperous section of Western Xia. With Qian Heng's current ability and the resources at his disposal, he can't open up the channels over there at all.

Therefore, if you want to restart the Silk Road, there are only two roads in front of Qian Heng.

One is from the Yongxing Military Road to the Qinfeng Military Road, passing through Xining Prefecture, entering the Tibetan Provinces, crossing the Eastern and Western Qarakhanids, that is, the territories of the Eastern and Western Uighurs, and then passing through the territory of the Seljuk Empire, arriving at many countries along the Mediterranean coast.

This road, just from Yongxing Army to Xining Prefecture, all kinds of food and cards on the way made Qian Heng very worried. A large part of the reason why Qian Heng abandoned the foundation of Shouzhang was that things came in and out of Shouzhang, and there were too many people to go through.

On the contrary, the industry in Dengzhou can be worth 40% of the profit just by the loss during transportation. If you want to go from the Yongxing Military Road to Xining Prefecture, or even across the border to the Tubo tribes where there are constant disputes, the loss is definitely better.

Another way in Qian Heng's mind was to detour from the northern border of Western Xia, and then to the territory of the Eastern and Western Uighurs, and restore the original line. In this way, all that needs to be solved is a little trouble in Western Xia.

The territory of the Suide Army is a good area for planting sorghum and wheat, not only that, Qian Heng also plans to make full use of the river water in the territory of the Suide Army to plant some rice. Qian Heng was missing the aroma of rice, the seeds of Champa rice had to be transported from Jiangnan as soon as possible.

With sorghum, wheat and rice, all kinds of liquor can be brewed.

These wines were the best goods on the Silk Road, and they were not only tea and silk that were welcomed by the West.

Compared with the two roads, it seems that it is easier to open up the roads in Western Xia.

Of course, this is just Qian Heng's judgment.

Standing on the old city wall, Qian Heng pointed to the north, "From this to the north, there is a river of Mingtang River, on both sides of the river, the grass is abundant, the cattle and sheep are everywhere, and the two military divisions are stationed, which are divided into the east and west. Another purpose for me to build the city again is to snatch back the Mingtang River, which originally belonged to us, from the hands of those two Western Xia military divisions, and leave enough land for my Great Song Dynasty to graze horses! ”

Occupy Hengshan, when the time comes, take the newly built Yongle City as the foundation, put the north Mingtang River of Fangma Mountain, if it comes out of the source of the Mingtang River, all the way to the north for 400 miles, it is the famous Hetao Plain that has not been reclaimed.

There is Qian Heng's ultimate goal.

Because Qian Heng knew that the Hetao Plain was one of the less important areas in the entire Western Xia, and on the east side of the Hetao Plain was the Yinshan Mountain Range, which was separated from the Liao State, and the boundless desert.

"What? Are you going to conquer Western Xia? ”

Not only Qin Hui, but also Han Shizhong and Wu Jue were also stunned.

No one would have thought that Qian Heng's plan was so big, this kind of behavior is no longer as simple as Qian Heng said to recapture some horse grazing land, once it comes to dealing with the camp of the two major military divisions of Western Xia, it means the fact that the Great Song Dynasty and Western Xia are at war.

Qian Heng smiled, "It can't be regarded as a war, it's just a few fights, so that we can have a better life, and as long as the garrison of Western Xia is obedient and obedient, there will be no big trouble!" ”

On the way to Yongle City, Qian Heng inquired with Wu Jue about some things about the garrison of the Western Xia Military Division, among which the large-scale Zuoxiang Shenyong Military Division, all the troops under its command were only more than 5,000 people. As for the other Xiangyou Military Division, there are only more than 3,000 people.

Dealing with an enemy army of this size and number, Qian Heng really didn't take this kind of thing too seriously.

The current Western Xia is not as strong as before, and their ally Liao has also reached the point of taking care of themselves.

This is also the best time for Qian Heng to calculate after careful consideration.

However, Qian Heng, as the supreme commander of the Suide Army, since Qian Heng has decided to open a new city in Yongle City, he can only implement it.

Although Qin Hui had a lot to say, he still held back and decided to implement Qian Heng's arrangement first, and when the time came, after hitting a wall, there would naturally be an opportunity for him Qin Hui to plan and persuade him.

Just when Qian Heng led people to appear in front of the old city of Yongle City, outside the Hengshan on the opposite side, there were a few scouts hidden in the mountains and bushes, looking at the people and horses on the old land of Yongle City, one by one dumbfounded.

One of them was very puzzled, "What are the Song people doing with so many people running to this ruined city?" Isn't there still a good thing worth searching for in this ruined city? ”

Another lean man snorted with disdain on his face, "What do you know, since these Song people appear here, there must be something unusual, let's secretly observe for two more days, and after seeing what they do, we will go back and report to General Mi Bao!" ”

Qian Heng didn't know that at this time, not far from them, in the hidden place in the mountains, there were scouts from Western Xia secretly peeping.
