He Zhizhou was stoned to death by Lu Zhishen with a Zen stick, and Wei Bao was killed by Chao Yong with a hammer in the regimental training.

Lu Zhishen picked up his Zen staff and said, "Prince, do you want to take this Huazhou?" ”

Chao Yong shook his head and said, "Forget it, our soldiers and horses can't fight here for the time being, and the lonely city is not easy to govern." Let's go, let's go back to Shaohua Mountain. ”

The four of them ran for a few miles, and then caught up with Shi Jin and the three.

Zhu Wu saw the four of them coming up, and said with a smile: "You guys have finally caught up, otherwise Brother Shi Jin will blame me again." ”

Lu Zhishen also knew that Shi Jin was worried about their safety, and said with a smile: "Don't say that there are only a few hundred people, that is, a few thousand, and the four of us can kill them." How are the Shi Jin brothers' injuries? ”

Shi Jin was just beaten for a while when he was just arrested, but he was already a little better at this time, and he smiled when he heard this: "It's out of the way." ”

As he spoke, he clasped his fists and said to Chao Yong and the others: "Shi Jin has seen the prince and the two elder brothers. ”

Chao Yong saw that Shi Jin was the same age as himself, and he also felt very cordial, and hugged his fists and saluted: "I have heard the name of Shi Jin's brother for a long time, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation." ”

Shi Jin said embarrassedly: "Let the prince laugh, I wanted to assassinate the dog official, but I didn't want to be arrested instead, and I went on a trip." ”

Chao Yong said with a smile: "Brother Shi Jin dared to assassinate alone, he has seen chivalrous courage, and he was just outnumbered when he was caught." ”

Shi Jin was also very grateful to see Chao Yong so thoughtful for him.

chatting all the way, Shi Jin heard that Daliang had already laid down Tokyo, and Lu Zhishen came here to invite him to join the gang, and he was also overjoyed to agree.

When everyone returned to Shaohua Mountain, Yang Chun had already prepared a banquet.

When Lu Zhishen saw that Shi was saved coming in and out, he also opened his clothes and ate wine in a big bowl.

During the banquet, Zhu Wu hesitated for a moment and said, "Prince." Do you have any important things to do when you come west? ”

Chao Yong nodded and said: "My Liang captured Tokyo, all the royal family of the Song Dynasty was captured, the Song Dynasty can be said to have perished, Wang Qing and Tian Hu are just one of the big thieves, Fang La was defeated by the Western Army, it can be said that my Liang will dominate the world just around the corner." The remnants of the Song Dynasty are not enough to worry about, only the Western Army cannot be underestimated, so I will see if I can persuade the old breed to be slightly more honest and peacefully incorporate the Western Army. ”

When Zhu Wu heard Chao Yong say this, he was also relieved. Shi Jin's martial arts are not bad. But it's not worth inviting Chao Yong personally. He also guessed that Chao Yong might be fighting the idea of the Western Army, but he didn't know what Chao Yong's plan was, and he was busy rescuing Shi Jin before, but he didn't ask about it.

Chao Yong also knew that Zhu Wu's name as a divine machine military master was not for nothing, so he asked, "What does Mr. think of this matter?" ”

Zhu Wu thought for a while and said: "Most of the generals of the Western Army are passed down from generation to generation, mainly the Seed Family, the Folding Family, the Yao Family, and the Liu Family. In recent years, the Western Xia and Qiang tribes have made a lot of trouble, and the imperial court needs these natives to lead the troops. Therefore, they did not dare to do anything to these gates. If you can really say that the old people are slightly fair, they can influence other generals and then control the Western Army. ”

Lu Zhishen ate a bowl of wine and said, "These guys all know. The prince wants to ask how you can say that the old seed is slightly fair. ”

Chao Yong shook his head helplessly and said: "Master Zhishen is such a character, don't blame Mr. ”

Zhu Wu said with a smile: "Then to make a long story short, these generals are rooted in the northwest, and the soldiers of the Western Army are also strong men from the northwest states. They joined the army more to protect their homeland. Once the Western Xia invaded the border, the families of the Western Army would be threatened, and the officers and soldiers of the Western Army could only stay in the northwest. If it weren't for the fact that the Western Army had defeated the Western Xia soldiers and horses several times in recent years. There are many rules in Western Xia, and this time the Western Army did not dare to go south to exterminate Fang La. However, the Western Xia knew that our Central Plains had changed dynasties, and it would inevitably come to invade again, and then the Western Army would return to the northwest regardless of whether it could destroy Fang La. Most of the state capitals in the northwest are barren lands, and once a war starts, they need money and food from the rear. If my Liang has enough money and food, the prince can provide money and food in exchange for the support of Jiangmen. ”

When Lu Zhishen heard this, he touched his head and said: "Jiangnan is a rich place, won't they let Jiangnan provide money and food?" ”

Chao Yong shook his head and said: "Not to mention that all roads in the south of the Yangtze River have been beaten to pieces by Fang La and Tong Guan, and now that the Song Dynasty has been destroyed, no one in the state capitals will inevitably want to listen to anyone's orders, how can they transport money and grain." ”

Zhu Wu nodded and said: "What the prince said is that unless a Song Dynasty royal family can come out, I am afraid that the Song Dynasty state capital will be like the Tang Dynasty and many powerful feudal towns will emerge to attack each other." ”

Chao Yong shook his head and said: "In order to prevent the rebellion of the feudal towns, the Song Dynasty implemented the policy of strong cadres and weak branches, and the soldiers and horses of the state capitals were only thousands, plus there were my Daliang, Wang Qing, Tian Hu, and Fang La's four forces, that is, some people wanted to take the opportunity to become bigger, but I am afraid that they will be destroyed by us before they grow up." Within a few months, the state capital north of the Yangtze River will inevitably be divided by our Daliang, Wang Qing, and Tian Hu. At that time, the remnants of the Song Dynasty may only be left with the Western Army. ”

Zhu Wu nodded and said, "If Tong Guan can't destroy Fang La, the situation in the world will most likely be as the prince said." But a few days ago, I heard that Tong Guan's army had already surrounded Muzhou, and the elite of the Western Army could not resist the Manichaean rabble, and at this time, Fang La was afraid that his soul had already returned to the underworld. If Fang La died, the remnants of Manichaeism would not be a big deal. A vast territory like Jiangnan is bound to have several powerful feudal towns. ”

Chao Yong heard Zhu Wu say this, and couldn't help but worry about Fang Baihua again.

He had sent Li Jun and Mu Hong to Jiangnan to find Fang Baihua before, but the two of them hadn't come back yet, and I didn't know if they had brought Fang Baihua back. After he conquered Tokyo, he also learned that Zhao Ji had sent someone to summon Tong Guan back to the division, but the news came back from Jiangnan that Tong Guan did not follow the order of the class teacher, but stepped up the siege of Muzhou. Fang La, on the other hand, summoned the Manichaeans in the nearby state capital to defend Muzhou, and one can imagine how fierce the battle of Muzhou would be. One side must stick to the religious holy places, and the other side must complete the battle.

Chao Yong also felt that Tong Guan's army could not exterminate Fang La for a while, after all, Muzhou was Fang La's base, even if he lost Muzhou City, he could also retreat to the countryside and hold on to it by virtue of his geographical advantages.

Chao Yong only hoped that Tong Guan would be able to return to the dynasty after learning that Da Liang had captured Tokyo, so that Fang La might be able to escape the difficulty, otherwise I am afraid that he would eventually be exterminated by Tong Guan's army.

Wu Song thought for a while and said, "Since this is the case, the Western Army will be obedient, but I am afraid that it will also be against my Liang court." And they have to guard against the attack of Western Xia, and they can't attack us, so why should we give them money and food? Even if we don't pay for food, they have to fight to the death with Western Xia in order to protect their homeland. ”

Chao Yong shook his head and said: "The emperor is not hungry soldiers, if the Western army runs out of money and food, I am afraid it will not be able to cope with the attack of the Western Xia, it should all be for the Han people." ”

When everyone heard Chao Yong say this, they couldn't help but be in awe. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
