Chapter 164: The Secret of the Party

He Daxian led two hundred personal guards cavalry, crossed the Yellow River, and arrived at Zhao Sang's camp in Linzhou, it was already three days later.

In the past three days, the 5,000 Zhenwu army has been staying in place, setting up camps, and doing a good job of defensive fortifications to prevent the opposite Dingyan army from attacking, but as a result, the 10,000 Dingyan army on the other side of the river has not moved, and everyone looks at each other across the river, without the slightest intention of coming to fight.

During this period, Yang Hongxin in Linzhou City also sent people to contact.

Yang Hongxin thought that the Tang army had come over again to beat the difficult army and help him break the siege, so he also wanted to discuss how the two armies could cooperate.

How do you know that Zhao Sang's stupid fork rolled his eyes:

"Pay your taxes!"

As a result, the Linzhou envoy ran away in anger and never came again!

Speaking of which, the Zhenwu Army has just taken out Fuzhou and killed hundreds of defenders of the Dingyan Army in Fuzhou, which can be regarded as a feud with the Dingyan Army. There are 10,000 cavalry in the Dingyan army, and the Zhenwu army on the opposite side is only 5,000 people, and as for the 3,000 Linzhou soldiers in Linzhou City on the mountain, they don't dare to leave the city and go down the mountain without permission if they are killed.

Besides, although the two armies are facing each other across the river, this cave river is very narrow, and the water flow is also gentle, which is not a natural danger, and the Dingyan army has already set up four or five pontoon bridges on the river, and 10,000 cavalry rushed over as if they were walking on the ground, but the Dingyan army watched the Zhenwu army set up camp and did not react, which is strange!

Li Yimin, who led the army, is one of the top ten heroes of the Western Regions, and according to his courage and ability, there is no problem at all. But for Mao, even such a hero-level person, just looked at Zhenwujun's big eyes and stared at him, but he didn't dare to fight?

That's why He Daxian is so anxious to come and plan the difficult army area.

In the time window of 936, the party members are a piece of fat!

Romantic by nature, the Dangxiang people do not like to fight, and have been bullied by many other ethnic groups since ancient times, and have been forced to move everywhere.

Needless to say, the Uighurs in the Western Regions have bullied them, the Tufan people have bullied them, even the Tuyuhun people who have long been wiped out by the Tufan people have bullied them, and a large number of various ethnic groups in the northern grasslands have often come to look for cheapness.

The time for the party to rise to prominence is very short, and there are actually only three great men who really support the backbone of the entire party and nation!

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Tuoba Sigong was the first great man of the Dang Xiang clan, which established the transcendent status of the Dang Xiang clan independent of other ethnic groups and dynasties, but it could only retreat near Xiazhou and be vassalized with the Central Plains Dynasty.

The other two great men were Li Jiqian and Li Yuanhao, the grandsons of Li Jiqian and Li Yuanhao, who appeared in the early Northern Song Dynasty, these two fierce men resisted the Liao State in the north and the Great Song Dynasty in the east, and led the Dangxiang army to violently expand the territory to the west, beating the Tufan and Uighurs thousands of miles away, and establishing the vast and famous Western Xia Empire in history.

After the death of Li Yuanhao, the Western Xia Empire no longer had the courage of the past, and only promised to survive between the two behemoths of the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Liao, until the Jurchen Jin Dynasty rose, and then vassal the Jin Dynasty, followed the Jin Dynasty army to loot the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty, but the Mongols rose again, and finally the Mongol army of Genghis Khan was completely wiped out.

The Western Xia Empire was founded less than 200 years ago, and the party clan has since dissipated in the rolling torrent of history.

At present, it is a period when the party is relatively soft. Li Sigong has been dead for many years, and there has never been an outstanding party leader and powerful figure, and the later Li Jiqian has not yet been born, and Li Yuanhao has no shadow. The party members are already strong militarily, but politically they are not bold enough.

During this period, when the Dangxiang people saw the Tufan and Uighurs, they fought as much as they wanted, without fear, but in the face of the army in the Central Plains, they flinched. If it is a strongman from the Central Plains, or simply the army of the Khitans, it will basically be directly coaxed, and finding a way to engage in peace and negotiation is the first choice.

After all, the title of the Tuoba clan's Dingdifficult Army Festival was awarded by the Central Plains Imperial Court, and every time the Central Plains Imperial Court was replaced, the Central Plains Imperial Court always had to habitually make things difficult and find a way to break the situation that the Tuoba clan had occupied Xiazhou for a long time.

Just three years ago, in 933 AD, Li Renfu died, and wanted to set up his son Li Yichao to succeed him as the envoy of the Dingyan Army, but the then Later Tang Emperor Li Siyuan made a crooked move before his death, so that the Zhangwu Jiedu who was sitting in Yanzhou (now Yan'an) made An Cong take over the Dingyan Army, and also let the general Yao Yan at the edge of the town at that time lead an army of 50,000 to escort him!

This medicine is a fierce general in the Later Tang Dynasty! For many years on the edge of the town, his hands have long been stained with the blood of party members.

As soon as he heard that he could rob the party members again this time, he immediately waved his troops straight in, which frightened Li Yichao and quickly retreated to Xiazhou.

Yaoyanchou's army surrounded Xiazhou, and Li Yichao sent 40,000 cavalry to cut off the grain and grass of the Tang army, forcing Yaoyanchou to kill, raise grain on the spot, burn and loot on the periphery of Xiazhou, and kill the heads of the party items, and several party tribes were wiped out.

Fortunately, at this time, Li Congke rebelled, the Tang army was forced to retreat, and Yao Yanchou was also appointed as a deputy envoy to follow Wang Sitong to crusade against Li Congke, and was killed by Li Congke after the defeat, but indirectly avenged the party.

It just so happened that Zhangwu Jiedu made An Congjin also said at this time that he "didn't really want to" go to Xiazhou to take up his post.

As soon as Li Yichao heard about it, he hurriedly sent a letter to An Congjin, saying: Xiazhou is barren, and there is no treasure accumulation to fill the imperial court's tribute; But I kept this land with my grandfather, and I didn't want to lose it. The lonely city of Yuer, the victory is not martial, why bother the country to spend so much! Fortunately, if it is allowed to reform itself, or make it conquer, I am willing to be the first of all.

It probably means that Xiazhou is very poor, and the ancestral industry is difficult to abandon, you have come to beat me, and I will help you to fight the Tufan people and Uighurs!

At that time, Li Congke and Li Conghou were fighting for the throne, and they were in a mess, and no one in the court paid attention to this matter.

It can be seen from this how afraid the party members are of the Tang Army! I'd rather turn around and take the initiative to provoke the Tufan people than go to war with the Tang Army coming from afar!

Therefore, this time the Zhenwu army suddenly crossed the Yellow River and invaded Fuzhou, and then the troops went straight to Linzhou, but after Li Yichao's death, Li Yiyin, who had just taken over as the envoy of the Dingyan Army, was frightened.

Nima, what tricks are you playing with Li Congke?

Obviously, we have already expressed our allegiance to the Later Tang Dynasty, why did you send the Zhenwu Army to stir up trouble!

Although Li Yiyin doesn't know much about the Zhenwu Army, he also knows how powerful the Zhenwu Army is!

The Tang army was already very powerful, and if it was able to carry and defeat the Khitans head-on, it was even more powerful! Yao Yanchou is already very terrifying, this Zhao Ping seems to be even more proficient, fighting the Khitan people is as common as eating and drinking.

What's more, if everyone is reasonable, it is indeed the Dingyan Army that ignores it, Fuzhou and Linzhou were originally under the jurisdiction of the Zhenwu Army, but you sent troops over, what do you want to do! Isn't it normal that Zhenwujun is coming to look for trouble now?

Therefore, as soon as he heard that the Zhenwu army was coming, Li Yiyin hurriedly informed Li Yimin, who was guarding Linzhou, not to take the initiative to provoke a "border provocation", if it was not for the Zhenwu army to take the initiative to start a war, it was still necessary to maintain restraint!

This is why He Daxian is late, and this Linzhou front line is still calm.

So, why is He Daxian belated?

He spent two days in Fuzhou.

For fools like Zhao Sang and Huang Zhi who don't even read books, Fuzhou is just a tattered small state city, full of loess, dirty, and there are no beauties to be seen on the street, even if they see beauties, they don't dare to move without General Zhao's permission.

But He Daxian is different, He Daxian has read books!

What treasures does Fuzhou have? Someone!

Huang Zhi killed hundreds of cavalry of the Dingyan Army under the city of Fuzhou, and then drove into the city, and the original hundreds of villagers in the city also dispersed in a hurry, and the Fuzhou Assassin also hid.

Who is Fuzhou Thorn History? Fold from afar!

Zhi Congyuan and his son Zhi De Yan, but later the leader of the famous Zhi family army!

In the official history, after the establishment of the Jin Dynasty, the Khitans came to receive the sixteen states of Yanyun, and Fuzhou was one of them. Zhi Congyuan led the people of Fuzhou to rebel against the rule of the Khitans, and raised a famous Zhejia army, which later became a small warlord on the separating side.

If you don't know the story of the Zhe family army, then in the story of the Yang family general, there is a She Taijun who has always heard of it, that is, Yang Linggong Yang Jiye's wife, She Taijun She Saihua, who later took the Yang family's female generals to the expedition, this daughter is the daughter of Zhe Deran.

This year, Zhe Deyan was nineteen years old, and She Saihua was three years old.

And Fuzhou Thorn Shi is forty years old, and he is still a native thorn at this time.

Zhi Congyuan was originally a native of Yunzhou, followed Li Siyuan to fight in the early years, became a tooth general, and later retired from the army, and was sealed by Li Siyuan as a Fuzhou assassin.

It's not easy to be a thorn in this prefecture. said that he is the highest local governor, but there are always more powerful forces than himself to control you, and because of the chaotic political situation in the Central Plains, there is a boss every two or three years.

In recent years, no one has finally taken care of Fuzhou, and the Nima Dingnan army has come over again, sending a thousand cavalry to crush the fold from afar. Now that the Dingyan Army is out, the Zhenwu Army is here again, I heard that Zhao Ping of the Zhenwu Army is a big devil who kills people without blinking!

As soon as Zhao Ping arrived, he drove Zhi Congyuan away, and then sat on the throne of the Thorn Shi in the Thorn Shi Mansion and summoned Zhi Congyuan.

"I've seen Lord Zhao this time."

Everyone is an official, theoretically Zhao Ping and Zhi Congyuan are at the same level, but Zhao Ping has a pomp of a superior meeting a subordinate, so the etiquette for everyone to meet is not easy to do.

Zhi Congyuan didn't know what Zhao Ping was thinking in his head, just humiliate it, and get used to it anyway.

Zhao Ping sat on the chair with a smile and looked at the "Ping" standing in front of him through the case.

"Your name is Fold Congyuan?"

"Yes!"

"Doesn't it feel awkward?"

"Huh? What the? ”

"It doesn't matter, this official will soon be the envoy of the Zhenwu Festival, and it doesn't hurt for you to salute me in advance." (To be continued.) )
