Chapter 0252: The Jedi Strikes Back
Uncle Zhang's questioning made everyone's faces pale.
As Zhang Shuye said, now the land that Qian Heng snatched has become the pasture of the Great Song Dynasty, raising a large number of war horses, cattle and sheep for the Great Song Dynasty.
If Qian Heng is withdrawn now, Xixia will definitely snatch it back directly.
Without Qian Heng in charge of the Suide Army, if these newly acquired lands are lost, the people present who transferred Qian Heng back will become sinners who make the Great Song Dynasty abandon the land.
When I thought of becoming a sinner, I wrote it in the history books.
Everyone stopped talking, and looked at each other, and no one was willing to express their opposition again.
After seeing that everyone was dumbfounded, Zhao Ji had a smile on his face again.
"Then according to Ji Zhong's opinion, how should Qian Heng be placed?"
Uncle Zhang replied again, "Back to the official family, the minister doesn't know how to measure Qian Heng's merits, how to reward Qian Heng, you have your own official family, as for transferring Qian Heng back to the capital, it depends on the meaning of you and your ministers!" ”
After finishing speaking, Uncle Zhang took a few steps back and stood there, no longer speaking.
Zhang Shuye also understood in his heart that Qian Heng's tossing this time was too big, and all Zhang Shuye could do was to help Qian Heng delay time as much as possible and give Qian Heng a chance to settle down in the situation of the Suide army.
Seeing that Uncle Zhang returned to a state of silence again, several ministers present who were dissatisfied with Qian Heng became active again.
After some deliberation and discussion, coupled with Zhao Ji's hard work, it took half a year to agree.
In the summer of the fourth year of Xuanhe, Qian Heng received a decree from Bianjing.
Because of Qian Heng's outstanding military achievements, he was specially awarded the title of Marquis of Qian Heng's founding and given the post of General Qian Hengda.
The reward of this great general is almost the highest reward for a military general, and the rank of the fourth grade is undoubtedly the greatest praise for Qian Heng.
Not only that, but also gave Qian Heng an official position as a pacification envoy of Xiazhou.
Xiazhou was originally the old name before the founding of the Western Xia, so it sounded, Qian Heng had a little calculation in his heart, could it be that someone in the court wanted to completely destroy the Western Xia and restore the land of Xiazhou?
This Xiazhou Jingluo appeasement envoy is the reward that makes Qian Heng a little pleased, not only that, but many generals under his command also have their own rewards.
But along with the will, there was also a letter from Uncle Zhang.
After reading the letter, Qian Heng was very disappointed.
Originally, I thought that Zhao Ji would give himself more support because he opened up his territory, and at least borrowed the land of the Liao people to directly compete with the Jin people, so as to enter the territory of Liao for himself and provide the possibility of blocking the Jin soldiers from the rear to enter the Central Plains.
Now it seems that Zhao Ji can still understand, and he can be regarded as having a little dignity as an emperor at all, but these high-ranking ministers in the court are more shameless than the other.
For the status of a scholar, he has always wanted to suppress himself.
is worthy of being a traitor and a minister, he has no other skills, and he is good at doing this kind of thing to suppress dissidents, even at the cost of destroying the territory he has worked so hard to fight.
Thanks to Uncle Zhang's help at night, he gave himself half a year.
According to the calculation of time, he must return to Bianjing before the winter moon of the fourth year of Xuanhe.
Qian Heng was originally thinking about how to go to the Vulture Sea to open up a new foundation, but now it seems that this plan can only be stranded indefinitely.
Fortunately, on the other side of the Vultures, only a freight yard was established for hoarding and forwarding goods, and no deeper development and construction was done.
However, the opening of the Silk Road cannot be delayed at all, and only by opening up the Silk Road can we earn more profits from the West, thereby creating more wealth for ourselves and providing more support for possible crises in the future.
Qian Heng thought about it carefully, and realized that Uncle Zhang didn't have much time for himself, and there was still a lot to do in just half a year.
Even, Qian Heng had the idea of going into hiding.
But what needs to be done, still has to be done.
Qian Heng did not discuss these things with others, but the transfer of all the manpower under his command became frequent again.
Especially Wu Song, Dong Qing and Yang Zaixing, the cronies of Qian Heng's family, were all arranged by Qian Heng to quickly send out messages through scouts from all walks of life and summon them to return to Yongle New Town.
Just when Qian Heng made frequent arrangements, Li Qianshun, the emperor of Western Xia, finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and reacted against the Suide army to which Qian Heng belonged, or the land occupied by Qian Heng.
Li Qianshun gathered the vast majority of the remaining eight military divisions, including the elite guards of Xingqing Mansion, commanded one army, and killed them towards the Mingtang River valley.
When he got the news, Qian Heng didn't feel too surprised.
Li Qianshun in history can also be regarded as the last Ming monarch, whether it is the strategy of governing the country or the ability to command the army, he can be regarded as a very capable master.
Therefore, Qian Heng has already had a countermeasure.
Of course, Qian Heng's so-called countermeasure was actually not to let Han Shizhong and Zhe Kecun leave.
Not only that, Qian Heng used the reason of providing military horses to the two military cities of Fuzhou and Yanzhou, and also mobilized thousands of soldiers and horses to assist in the defense of the Mingtangchuan area.
Zhe Kecun commanded more than 10,000 family troops, and Han Shizhong also led 5,000 kinds of family troops, all the time in Mingtang River, guarding countless cattle, sheep and horses, patrolling back and forth.
Wu Jue led several lieutenant generals and 20,000 elite soldiers of Tubo to sit in the sea of Wuxi, and in addition to the soldiers and horses of the Western Xia revenge, they were also guarding against the entry of the Liao or Jin soldiers and horses in the northern Xinjiang.
At the first time when Li Qianshun launched an offensive, Qian Heng arranged for someone to send an urgent report to Yelu Dashi as quickly as possible.
In the urgent report, Qian Heng's request was very simple, asking Yelu Dashi to take the existing integrated Tubo soldiers and horses to directly enter the territory of Western Xia from the rear of Western Xia, that is, the eastern border of Western Xia.
At this time, it is already a never-ending conquest and killing. After Qian Heng saw Uncle Zhang's letter, he originally thought about whether to completely defeat Xixia to prevent future troubles.
Qian Heng, who was still a little hesitant, confirmed that Western Xia had sent troops to seek revenge on himself, and Qian Heng naturally would not miss this opportunity.
As a result, before Li Qianshun led the troops to Mingtangchuan, they got the news that the Tibetan tribes had sent troops into the country.
At this time, Li Qianshun, how could he not guess that these were Qian Heng's arrangements.
Li Qianshun also knew that dividing the troops at this time was a very unwise decision, but in order to ensure the stability of the country, Li Qianshun still had to send 10,000 elite soldiers all the way to the east to meet the Tubo soldiers and horses led by Yelu Dashi.
And Li Qianshun himself, with the rest of the soldiers and horses, directly entered the Mingtang River.
and the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty, fighting in one place.
In the face of Li Qianshun's elite soldiers, whether it is Han Shizhong or Zhi Kecun, including Wu Jue and Wu Xuan's brothers, they all regard it as an excellent opportunity to make contributions.
With his soldiers, he fought desperately.
