"Wang Shao captured Lintao?! How is it so fast! What about the blind Wu Qi, how many days did he guard? ”

On the mountain road leading to Wushengjun in Lanzhou, Yu Zanghua Male stopped his war horse. The messenger who had just rushed back from the front made his face change suddenly. As Yu Zang Huama stopped, the team that couldn't see the end also stopped.

The sentry who rushed back from two hundred miles away was covered with dust, and whether it was a man or a horse, in the cold wind, his body was hot and steaming white. He reported the details to Yu Zang Hua Ma in the interval of respite, "The Song people captured Lintao three days ago, but before that, the blind Wu Qi had already abandoned the city and fled. Now his big tent has reached the west bank of Taoshui, and he has ceded the east to the Song people. ”

"Blind Wu Qi runs so fast." Yu Zang Huama was disdainful, and opened his mouth to scold, "I can't expect him to last two more days." Mu Zheng's younger brother is really a waste. It's no wonder that he can't compete with Dong Yu, and he can't even be a Zampu......"

"Mu Zheng didn't make a move?" A relative general next to Yu Zang Huama asked.

The Sentinel shook his head, "No." ”

"Hua Ma, what now?" The general nervously consulted Yu Zang Huama, "Are you going back to Lanzhou?" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Yu Zang Huama turned his head and glared fiercely, "The knife is out of the sheath, can it come back without blood?" Even if you take advantage of the fire to rob, it is better to grab a handful in Wushengjun than to go back directly! ”

"Sack the Wusheng Army?!" Wen Yu was almost about to cry out, he immediately approached the patriarch of the Yu Zang family, and hurriedly persuaded: "Hua Ma! You can't do that! angered Mu Zheng, maybe he would lead the Song people to Lanzhou! ”

"Did I give such an order?!"

Yu Zang Huama said impatiently, he was just making an analogy. Of course he wouldn't do that, and it would be troublesome if he provoked the hatred of Mu Zheng's brothers. If they attract the Song people, the Yu Zang family will not be able to hold on.

Lintao is 300 miles to the north is Lanzhou, if Mu Zheng is under the pressure of Wang Shao to Fu Song people, Lanzhou will have to face the three-way attack - the renamed Guwei to the north, there is also a small road to Lanzhou. Although the trail was 400 miles long and the road was rugged, if the Song and Mu Zheng sent troops from Wusheng and Hezhou at the same time, and sent another partial division, the situation in Lanzhou would be very dangerous. If Dong Yu is not willing to be lonely at that time, and attacks from the west again, Yu Zang's family will not only be dangerous, but will be wiped out.

"What are the Song people doing now?" Yu Zang Huama turned his face and asked again.

"It was as if they were going to repair the city. Rebuild Lintao City. ”

"Hemp! They can't be relieved to build the city! Wen Yu immediately shouted, "Once Lintao City is repaired, with the defense of the Song people, no one can defeat it." After the first half of the year, the surrounding Tibetan tribes will be thrown over. ”

"What are you panicking about......" Yu Zang Huama was quite calm, he was able to sit in the position of the patriarch, that is, because the more critical he was, the more stable his temperament was, "I didn't have time to rescue the blind Wu Qi, but the Song people want to rebuild Lintao City, leaving us time, to say the least, there are still two months, don't panic." ”

He thought for a while and said, "Let's contact Mu Zheng, I don't want to fight with him now, everyone has a good life when the Song people come." There is also food and grass for the troops to be taken out by Blind Wu Qi, and he has to contact him. ”

"What about the country? Do you want to write again? ”

Yu Zang Huama had already sent a message to Liang Yiburi, but he didn't expect Xingqing Mansion to send reinforcements. The battle at Hengshan half a year ago hurt the vitality of the country, and it was said that he had captured Luowu City, but there were so many casualties that Liang Yibury couldn't explain it at all - so he took a knife to confess. For the decision of the Liang brothers and sisters, Yu Zang Huama still admires it very much.

Although he didn't expect reinforcements to come, Wen Xuan's proposal, Yu Zang Huama still nodded, "If you want to, why not?" You go and write a letter and sign it for me. ”

Wen Zhen can write party texts, and it is also common to help Yu Zang Huama write folds, and he carries pen, ink, paper and inkstone with him. He nodded in agreement, and found a clean place to write.

"Wait!" Yu Zang Huama stopped him, and added, "Get a rabbit, so that you can write a blood book!" ”

Han Gang is now in Weiyuan Fort. Although he was still worried about whether there would be chaos in Longxi City, his attention was now occupied by the matter of transferring grain to Lintao City.

The more he looked at the battle report, the more he felt that this task was really not easy.

With memories thousands of years later, Han Gang was not as interested in attacking the city as the generals of today, and he was very concerned about the number of enemies to be annihilated. Although the Yokoyama Raiders failed, the enemy troops that could be destroyed were all elite, and the vitality of the party members was greatly damaged. The resilience of Western Xia was far inferior to that of the Great Song Dynasty, and in this sense, the battle was still won.

can return to the topic of this battle, how many beheadings did Wang Shao get? It was not said in the good news. Han Gang estimated that he was also embarrassed to say.

If it was when Renzong or Yingzong was in the time, the beheading of thirty or fifty would be considered a merit, at least he would not blush when he took it out all the way. But now, one after another, one after another, every few months, there are hundreds of beheadings. The appetite of the upper and lower levels of the court has been expanded, and the vision has been raised, and the beheading of only five hundred is embarrassed to publicize it to the outside.

This time, the gains in several battles at Qingping Fort, Savage Pass, and Lintao City are probably only two or three hundred in total. And the blind Wu Qi is Mu Zheng's brother-in-law, and the number of people in the headquarters will never be small, and the combat power of two or three thousand can still be pulled. If you add pro-affiliated departments, there will always be tens of thousands of armor soldiers. With this comparison, it can be clearly found that Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu did not hurt the vitality of the blind Wu Qi at all.

It is indeed a good thing to successfully conquer Lintao City, but it is not a small trouble to stay. Han Gang would rather fight a series of battles, at the cost of more than 1,000 casualties, and sweep away the army of Blind Wu Qi and Mu Zheng together. When it comes to the ability to fight in the field, Han Gang has great confidence in gathering the elite officers and troops of the two routes, but if he chases the Tubo people who are scattered and fleeing between the lofty mountains and mountains of Hehuang, his confidence is not so sufficient.

Killing people is the right way.

If you don't kill Mu Zheng, how can you convince him and Dong Yu who is hiding in the northwest.

Han Gang sighed, there was no point in thinking about this now. It was better to transport the grain and grass to the front earlier, and when the troops left Qingping Fort, the dry food they carried was only seven days' worth of food, and now two days have passed.

The first batch of grain and grass was ready to go, and it was a pack team of horses, mules and other livestock, and the manpower transported was all military status. However, the manpower for transporting the baggage was inconvenient to use the manpower in the army, so it could only be requisitioned locally.

The order signed by Wang Shao and Gao Zunyu was left to Han Gang in advance, and the text stamped with the seal of the pacification division had been printed and sent to the various villages of the Tongyuan Army.

Han Gang didn't know when Cai Yanqing would be able to send the people who built the city, the rebels of the Guangrui army were now under his command, but their numbers were only enough to transport grain and grass, not to mention that these people were all elite who could fight, and it was a waste to ram the earth, and it would be more useful to use it to lure the enemy.

He checked the edict for distribution again and again in case there were any errors or omissions that could have gone beyond his intentions. The leaflet-like text does not have the scent of ink on it, and the ink that can be applied to the lead script has not yet appeared, but just ordinary ink. However, the handwriting is neat, and the words on the large seal are also clear and legible, which is worthy of being the product of engraving.

Han Gang didn't have the energy to devote himself to movable type printing now. Nowadays, movable type printing is available, but it is usually used in temples to print scriptures and proverbs, in terms of beauty and quality, it cannot be compared with the books that are usually sold - and for the printing workshop, the movable type used for movable type printing will soon be damaged, and a good set of printing plates can be passed on to future generations. With the current technical conditions, it is self-evident which printing method is more suitable.

"Send all the orders down, and every armor must be transmitted." Han Gang handed the leaflet back to the officials who were waiting for the order, "It's been written earlier, it's time to get ready." The rumors are to protect the integrity, and there is no shirk in this matter, otherwise don't blame the military law for being ruthless! ”

You Sanshi checked the belted belts and leggings again, a habit he had developed in the army for more than ten years.

In the same room, his Hun family was sitting on the side, sorting out Your Sanshi's bags. The drooping hair covered the expression on her face, and she could only be heard sighing: "It's going to be battle again." ”

"This is Han Jiyi's order." You Sanshi emphasized.

Guangrui's 3,000 rebels all relied on Han Gang to escape with their lives, and the whole family was also saved by Han Gang. committed the capital crime of a thousand cuts, and after being recruited, he was not exiled to Lingnan to wait for death, but only became a tunding in Tuntian. can still be fed and clothed, and the whole family is still around, which is more comfortable than when he was in the Guangrui Army.

Now Han Gang has recruited people from all over the country to serve in the army, and some people don't know what to do, and they are slandered. But most of the rebel soldiers are still very simple, and they have the mind to repay their kindness.

You Sanshi was a Baozheng who was elected by rebel soldiers from the same village. After the Guangrui rebels surrendered, it was decided to exile Tongyuan, and all the officers with titles were placed on the edge of Longxi City. And the Baozheng and Jiatou in the nearly 20 rebel villages were all elected by themselves, and they all won the hearts of the people and were able to shoulder heavy responsibilities.

Carrying his bags, he lifted his bow and knife, and said goodbye in the tears of his wife and children. You Sanshi's Baojia dispatched more than 130 sturdy men, together with dozens of walled forts on the shore of Weishui, a total of more than 2,000 Baoding gathered in Weiyuan Fort.

Half a year after the surrender of Xianyang City, the Guangrui army regrouped.
