Ergouzi led the army to pursue Li Jiqian, and chased desperately along the way, constantly shooting with bows and arrows in the back, chasing a Western Xia king like a frightened rabbit. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

As a result, Li Jiqian's subordinates gradually became fewer and fewer, and later, there were only thousands of descendants left under his command.

Three days passed.

Li Jiqian thought that he would not be able to escape, but unexpectedly, the Song army behind him suddenly gave up the pursuit, turned his horse's head and retreated.

Just when Li Jiqian was secretly guessing what Zhao Gu was doing, a powerful voice sounded in the Song army, and the person who spoke was the second dog.

"Li Jiqian, if you want to continue to survive in this Western Xia, please gather on the prairie after the tenth day and accept the arrangement of our Hou Ye, otherwise even if you escape to the ends of the earth, our Hou Ye will let you die without a place to bury."

Hearing this, Li Jiqian was so angry that he had the heart to scold the person who spoke a few words, but thinking of his current situation, he still endured it and fled in a hurry with his troops.

In the grassland marshal tent, the corners of Zhao Gu's mouth, who had finished counting the results, finally showed a smile, and said to the military supervisor on the side: "Now that the matter is now, we can already write to the emperor, and the situation in Western Xia is settled." ”

The prison army sent by Zhao Guangyi looked at Zhao Gu with a little fear and smiled: "Everything is under the orders of Master Hou." ”

But he said that this prison army should be on par with Zhao Gu, why was he so polite to Zhao Gu? That's naturally scary!

After dealing with the post-war affairs, Ergouzi also led the army back at this time, and at the same time brought a beautiful woman to Zhao Gu.

This beauty is naturally not used to give Zhao Gu a warm quilt, because she is Xia Weibing.

When the two met this time, Xia Weibing's attitude was obviously relaxed, no longer with a dead fish face, and from time to time, her eyes were full of interest when she looked at Zhao Gu.

Zhao Gu knew that this was because he had defeated Li Jiqian with only 50,000 soldiers and horses, so Xia Weibing had to pay attention to himself.

Or maybe it was because he didn't expect Zhao Gu's last explosion to wipe out Li Jiqian's 150,000 army at once, so Xia Weibing was so jealous of him, and wanted to find out how he did it.

But Xia Weibing never mentioned the big battle, fully revealing her wisdom.

As soon as she saw Zhao Gu, she immediately asked, "Master Hou, now that you have decided on Xixia, it's time to fulfill the promise between us, right?" ”

Zhao Gu asked, "What promise?" ”

Xia Weibing's face turned cold: "Naturally, it is a promise to make me the lord of Western Xia." ”

Zhao Gu shook his head: "Miss Xia, now that I have mastered many tribes in Western Xia, and swept Li Jiqian, I believe that in a few months, I will be able to completely control Western Xia, why do I still have to fulfill my promise?" ”

"Do you plan to break the contract, you must know that I am not easy to mess with, believe it or not, I can silently let your army of 50,000 disappear on the grassland." Xia Weibing threatened.

Zhao Gu glanced at her playfully when he heard this: "But you are in my hands now, aren't you?" Why don't you go back to Kaifeng with me, then I will find you a sunny husband, and save you from being cold all day long, why should a woman cheat me all day long, obediently be someone else's wife, isn't it good to teach her husband and children? ”

When Xia Weibing heard this, his teeth itched with hatred, as if he wanted to gnaw off a mouthful of Zhao Gu's meat, and said, "Do you want to hold me hostage?" ”

Zhao Gu suddenly laughed: "That's it, I won't joke with you, Miss Xia, I will naturally fulfill my promise, so I ask you to wait in my military camp for ten days, and everything will be clear by then." ”

"Okay, then I'll wait for you for ten days, I hope you don't let me down."

After Xia Weibing finished speaking, he gave Zhao Gu a fierce look, and then left angrily.

After she left, Ergouzi followed and came in, and said, "Big brother, are you really going to let him and Li Jiqian go?" In case they have different intentions at that time, it is not easy to deal with them. ”

Zhao Gu nodded, how could he not know that he was seeking skin with the tiger, and Xia Weibing, the tigress, was still very fierce, but what could he do if he didn't do this?

Not to mention that Zhao Gu really needs an ally in order to fight against Zhao Guangyi, even if he is dedicated to the public, how can Xia Weibing and Li Jiqian be so easy to destroy.

The two of them have been operating in the territory of Western Xia for many years, and there are countless followers in the open and secret, once the Great Song Dynasty moves them, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction in the whole territory of Western Xia, or their violent counterattack, once the two of them are united, then the Great Song Dynasty will want to recover the Western Xia, and they can only be completely subdued, which is obviously not in the interests of the Great Song Dynasty.

It is better to use a balanced strategy to let them fight among themselves in Western Xia, as long as they don't fight too much, and they all recognize the dominance of the Great Song Dynasty, it is the best choice for the Great Song Dynasty.

Once the law is successfully implemented, after a year or two, after the people of Western Xia realize the benefits of merging Western Xia into the Great Song Dynasty, they will no longer be so loyal to the two of them, and the centripetal force of the two of them will become smaller and smaller.

But the difficulty of this operation is not small, first of all, Da Song has to balance the relationship between them, and they can be allowed to be strong and weak, but they can't be too strong or too weak.

Moreover, although the two of them still have to control most of the land in Western Xia, the Great Song Dynasty must also control a large part of it, otherwise what should they use to balance them?

To put it bluntly, Zhao Gu hoped to establish a relationship between the Three Kingdoms in the territory of Western Xia, and the forces of Xia Weibing, Li Jiqian, and the Great Song Dynasty would form a dog-tooth intertwined state here to facilitate the management of the Great Song Dynasty.

And Zhao Gu also hopes that Xia Weibing can fulfill his promise and be Zhao Gu's ally, then Zhao Gu must also have a force in Western Xia, this force is naturally impossible to ask Zhao Guangyi, and it can't see the light, in other words, this force is the fourth force in Western Xia, a force that only belongs to Zhao Gu himself.

This force must be very strong, so strong that Xia Weibing can be jealous, once she is biased towards the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Gu's forces must be able to sweep through Western Xia and destroy Xia Weibing, the betrayer, or he must suppress Li Jiqian and let Li Jiqian deal with Xia Weibing with him.

To put it more bluntly, Zhao Gu hoped that there were four forces in the territory of Western Xia, Xia Weibing and Li Jiqian were hostile to each other, and the Great Song court mediated between them, while his forces should be in the dark, beware of Xia Weibing or Li Jiqian falling to the Great Song court.

Of course, Xia Weibing or Li Jiqian can expose Zhao Gu's power and let the Great Song Dynasty clean up Zhao Gu, and then they will think of forcing the Great Song Dynasty to take away and become the master of Western Xia themselves, then it depends on their ability.
