Chapter 35 Qin, Feng, Jie, Cheng Sizhou Ping (one change)

Inside the opening

Miao Xun, who has already lived in Kaifeng Zhao Mansion, wanders around Kaifeng in his spare time, and by the way operates the old business - fortune telling and looking at appearances.

In the past few years, he has worked hard, and Wen Taowu is proficient in everything and full of economy. After leaving school, he traveled around the world and made friends. He witnessed the division of the world, the fire of his homeland, and the suffering of the common people, and he decided to make contributions to the society and seek benefits for the people.

When he met Zhao Kuangyin on the golden bridge in his hometown of Liuye Town, he then calculated a hexagram for him, thinking that this person was a noble person, and later his mentor Fu Yaozi went down the mountain to see Zhao Dezhao, the son of the Zhao family, and he also felt that this person was extraordinary.

Miao Xun decided to follow Zhao Kuangyin in the future.

Zhao Dezhao knew Miao Xun's talent and the role of the Zhao family, so he maintained a harmonious relationship with Miao Xun.

……

Miao Xun has been traveling the world for the past few months, and he has seen the Tuqiang of Guo Rong, the son of Zhou Guo.

In the second year of Xiande, in March 955, in order to prevent the Liao State from going south, Guo Rong sent the general Wang Yanchao to garrison Li Yankou, and set up the Jing'an Army between Shenzhou and Jizhou as a military defense fortress.

When the Liao State saw the defense of the Zhou army, it went south to harass, was beaten by Wang Yanchao for a while, and was defeated and went back, not daring to go south.

From April to the present, most of the veterans eliminated by Guo Rong went to build Kaifeng City, at that time in Kaifeng due to the narrowness of the market, Guo Rong ordered the expansion of the outer city, so that the county officials around Kaifeng divided the streets, warehouses, and public houses, and the rest of the vacant land listened to the people to build houses at will.

Guo Rong is preparing to build the first capital city in the world.

Since then, the city of Kaifeng has been overhauled, the road in the city has been straightened and widened, the road is thirty steps wide, and the whole Kaifeng has a new look, and there are more people who can accommodate it.

After a series of New Deals

In June, the Son of Heaven Guo Rong edicted the two capitals in the east and west, the judges left behind in the prefectures of Zhudao, the judges of the two envoys, the young Yin, and the military judges of the defense regiment, and they were not allowed to recommend others in the future; Those who used to follow the former bureaucrats listened to the arrangements of the imperial court. Others, such as the defense regiment training assassin Shi Zhou, each placed a member of the officer.

This edict of Guo Rong weakened the use of human rights by the envoys of the feudal towns and brought power back to the central government.

Miao Xun knew that the general trend of the world was on the side of the Zhou State, so he stayed in Kaifeng City.

Zhao Dezhao knew that the movements of Xiande in the second year were big, so he honestly stayed in Kaifeng, managed his business well, and resolutely did not touch other related politics.

In the past few months, his education career is still ongoing, and other things Zhao Dezhao plans to slowly lay out, and now he is six years old, after the change of Chen Qiao, that stage is even more exciting.

During this time, Zhao Dezhao has been grasping the dynamics ahead through the secret agents tracked by Changchun Hall, and he can also draw some useful values based on the experience of his previous life.

In mid-July, on the battlefield in the northwest, Shu sent people to contact Han and Tang, and agreed to jointly send troops to control Zhou, which involved the interests of the three countries, but it was far more than these three countries.

Since the day Zhao Kuangyin led the army, the Kaifeng Imperial Court, the Shu Kingdom, Chengdu, and the Tang Kingdom, all of whom have paid attention to the general trend of the world, are all watching this war.

The Kaifeng court was naturally very concerned about this battlefield, and the Son of Heaven Guo Rong prayed for the victory of the army every day, while those ministers who opposed the Western Expedition were worried about the defeat of the war, and the Great Zhou State could not afford such a toss.

In Chengdu, Shu Kingdom, in the imperial palace, Meng Chang and Mrs. Hua Rui played chess on the flower stand in the imperial garden, and then the attendants entered, saying that the army was in Wuwei City at this time, and the whole army was ready to go.

Meng Chang was very confident in Li Yanqi, so he didn't raise his head, and praised: "Concubine Ai, I've eaten your chess pieces." Then he waved his hand and let the squire go out.

In Jiangning Mansion of Tang State, Emperor Li Jing received a letter of alliance from Shu State, saying that he would send troops together with Tang State and attack on two fronts, and when the time came, he would destroy Zhou State and fight for hegemony in the Central Plains. Li Jing received this letter of national nature is proud, the previous attack on Chu and Fujian, has made the Tang State gnaw this bone, although the two countries destroyed the country, but by the military generals, Tang State's mind to the East China Sea, so the court was also divided into several factions, Li Jing was very headache, only benefited some troops, used for harassment. If necessary, make plans, and wait for the snipe and clam to fight, so that the fisherman of Tang State can bite off a piece of meat from the back of Zhou State, and let the army harass the south of Zhou State.

Jinyang of the Han State, last year because of the defeat of Gaoping, Jinyang was besieged by the army of the Zhou State, the Han lord Liu Min died in November, Liu Jun ascended the throne, since then the national strength of the Han State is not as good as before, has been in the same place, occupying eleven or twelve states, surviving in the cracks, and at this moment also received the edict of the Shu State. Liu Jun felt that the time was ripe, so he planned to send troops south to harass the northern border of the Zhou State.

Within the Liao State, due to civil strife, it was temporarily unable to go south.

……

Half a month later, the time turned to August, and the weather was still hot in August, especially in the hinterland of the Central Plains.

The sun is scorching, the earth is cracking, the heat is blowing, the dust is flying, and the drought is everywhere.

The army of the Zhou State was mighty, the banner was covering the wind, and the 10,000 forbidden troops were marching westward, and they had arrived outside the city at this moment.

The army of Li Tinggui of Shu State is in Wuwei City this time, pillow Godandan.

The two armies are at war, and a big war is about to break out.

In the camp of the Zhou army outside the city, Wang Jing thought that the time was ripe for the southwest camp, so he led the army to attack the mighty city.

Wang Jing's side of the general Wan Song with the army in front of the battle, see its martial city, its height is three zhang, a few kilometers around, is a strong city. It's a tall city. Wuwei is the only way to connect Chang'an and the Western Regions, and was a key point of the Silk Road in history.

Wuwei, a place of war.

Since ancient times, many soldiers have ignited wars here.

The Six Dynasties, the former Liang, the Later Liang, the Southern Liang, the Northern Liang, and the Great Liang in the early Tang Dynasty all built their capitals here, and they were always counties, prefectures, and prefectures, and they were important towns in the northwest, so their status was very important.

Today, the station of the army is opened, the whimpering trumpets sound, on the city gate, the sound of drums in the army, the battlefield is full in an instant, the battle of the lord of the vast land, and the duel between the current national forces are sounding.

The soldiers were spilling blood, Wan Song sat on a war horse, held a spear, ran through the chaos, met an enemy, and harvested the blood with his sword. His body was splattered with blood, and he fought in the dark, and the battlefield was full of blood.

Reaper, combatant......

Fall down and get up, fall down and get up again,

The blood is all over the place, and the sun is vicious and ferocious.

The battlefield is like purgatory, fighting, ending-

……

The war will be won or lost, a battle ended in the defeat of the Shu army, and the dead bodies of the two armies of Zhou and Shu were even more numerous. The victory of the Zhou army in this battle made the soldiers even more excited, and Wan Song's performance this time was very incisive. After this small victory, the Zhou army spontaneously accelerated the speed of the march.

The Shu ** team over there broke and fled, and it could no longer support the Zhou army to attack like a tide. The soldiers of this battalion led by Wan Song heard a good news at this time, and recruited Wang Jing, after a hard fight, successfully broke through the mighty city, and the Shu army abandoned the city and fled, capturing more than 300 people under Jiang Hui of the Shu Military Academy.

After such a big movement, a piece of music and Pegasus entered Tokyo Kaifeng, and said that in August, Zhou Wangjing and others won a small victory over the Shu army and Wuwei City.

When the news came back to Kaifeng, the Son of Heaven Guo Rong was overjoyed, and the ministers of the DPRK and China began to stand in the camp of the Son of Heaven, insisting on the Shu State and recapturing the four states of Qin, Feng, Jie, and Cheng in the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Zhao Dezhao had already known the result, so he just smiled, and Yang Meng was very happy at the moment, Yizi's performance in the forbidden army was good, according to this situation, Yizi had a bright future.

Zhao Dezhao is still planning, the children of Sanwei Book House have learned well, and have initially mastered the basic knowledge of kindergarten and the first grade of primary school, and then Zhao Dezhao began to continue to implement education.

And the 100 veterans were also temporarily placed in Homeinn as a nursing home for the people and a labor force for clearing wasteland, and Zhao Dezhao restrained them from infringing on the interests of the people.

Wowanjia has also begun its initial operation, and Guangwei Group has entered a stage in Luoyang.

……

On the Northwest Front, a few days passed.

Li Tinggui of Shu has already suffered the defeat of the Zhou army before, and at this moment the army is discussing countermeasures, according to the deployment, Li Tinggui is responsible for transferring troops and sending generals, implementing the strategy of dividing troops, and encircling the Zhou army.

In September, the war in Fengzhou was urgent, and the two countries of Zhou and Shu started fighting.

Li Tinggui of Shu had a long-term plan and decided to send troops to occupy Maling Village, and sent strange soldiers out of the Xiegu Tun in Baijian, and divided the troops in Tangcang Town and Huanghua Valley in the north of Fengzhou, and sent Wang Luan, the envoy of the Dyeing Academy, to lead 5,000 troops out of Tangcang Town.

Huanghua Valley, a small valley, is located in the northeast of Fengzhou, although the valley is small, but not to be underestimated. The terrain is flat, but it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is a big man when the pass, and there is a tendency for ten thousand people to open, and this place is also a good place to set up an ambush.

The scouts of Shu State got the news that the way of transporting grain for the Zhou army passed by from here, and the Shu ** discussed the intention to start from here, occupy this road, cut off the grain road of the Zhou army, and the time must be a move to defeat the enemy, and the Zhou army will die if it is not defeated.

The Zhou army also sent scouts.

However, Li Tinggui's strategy of Shu State had been detected by the scouts sent by Xiang Xun and Wang Jing, so the two of them ordered Zhang Jianxiong to lead 2,000 troops to Huanghua Valley, seize the mouth of Huanghua Valley, and do not let the Shu ** team occupy this place first, and then sent Wan Song and other strong soldiers out of the enemy to strangle the return of the Shu army.

The Shu ** team arrived at Huanghua Valley, failed to reach first, and was ambushed on three sides by Zhang Jianxiong's prepared Zhou army, stifled the way back, and was defeated.

The king of Shu was defeated and ran to Tangcang, was ambushed again, died in battle, and Sun Tao's troops were all captured.

The Zhou army then led the army to Maling and Baijian. When the Ma Ling and Baijian Shu armies heard that the Huanghua Valley army had been defeated, like dominoes, the Ma Ling and Baijian armies were also defeated, and Li Tinggui, Gao Yanyu and other generals retreated to Qingniling.

But the news came very late, and the situation in Qinzhou was already precarious.

Xiongwu Jiedu made Han Jixun isolated in Qinzhou, and stayed to observe the judge Zhao Arsenic to guard the city and go to Chengdu by himself.

Zhao Arsenic, the observer judge of Qinzhou, saw that the brave generals of the Hou Shu army fled either to death, and the Hou Zhou army was strong and strong, and the two states of Cheng and Dai surrendered one after another.

The Battle of Huanghuagu was a great victory, and the Zhou army recovered the hometown of Guanzhong, deterred the Shu State, and lifted the flank threat for Guo Rong's next plan to conquer Tang.

In October, the lord of Shu urgently sent an envoy to ask for peace, but Guo Rong refused, but gathered troops to store grain in Jianmen and Baidi to prevent the Zhou army from penetrating.

Everything goes according to the course of history-

In November, Wang Jing and other companies besieged Fengzhou and divided their troops to Guzhen to block reinforcements. Not long after, Fengzhou was broken, and 5,000 people under Wang Huan and Zhao Chongpu, the capital eunuch, were captured.

Guo Rong also issued an edict to pardon the two tax collection departments of Qin, Feng, Jie, and Cheng Prefectures, and the various colors established by Later Shu. The captured soldiers of Shu were voluntarily repatriated. Under the sword gate, the state camp was strong, and the remnants of Shu were looking at the wind and retreating, and soon after Qin, Feng, Jie, and Chengping.

Zhou regained the four states lost by the Han Dynasty.

The great victory in the northwest brought an end to the battle of Zhou against Shu.
