Annihilated the Dunmu Army of the Western Liao State, Li Qing gathered his troops and subordinates in Zhongyun, and then attacked the Western Xia from the northwest to the southeast. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Historically, the Western Xia Emperor Li Qianshun ascended the throne from 1086 to 1039, and went through non-ruling periods such as the mother party, the traitor, and the autocratic power of the queen mother. It was not until 1099 that the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang angered the Jurchens and was poisoned and executed by the Jurchen envoys, so that she was able to truly sit on the throne.
This three-year-old emperor, who has gone through ups and downs, has no doubt about his forbearance and wit beyond the permanent.
Regardless of the arrogant and domineering ministers or the tyrannical queen mother, they couldn't help him, and it was he Li Qianshun who had the last laugh.
However, due to Liang Qikui's high-profile war against the Song Dynasty for many years, and later Tong Guan's expeditionary party project, both Song and Xia were defeated, and both of them suffered a great loss of national strength.
Especially for the desolate Western Xia Kingdom, the situation is even worse, if it were not for the fact that the Western Regions must have a trade route, plus mineral salt and weapons and horses as a way to make money, it may have been buried by the yellow sand long ago.
This time, in the face of the elite mechanized troops of the Yan State, it was even more difficult to parry, and the thousands of miles of land were like broken bamboos, and the sand, melon, Su, Gan, Liang, Wei, and Ling were all crushed by the Yan army.
When Xingqing Mansion was exposed in front of the Yan State West Road Army, the Western Xia Kingdom had no troops to fight, and Li Qianshun keenly felt that his throne could not be kept. So he wore shackles and opened the door with hundreds of civil and military officials to dedicate the city.
Li Qing has been the head of the spy for many years, so he naturally made the scene enough, personally untied Li Qianshun's shackles, and joined hands to talk about joy.
In front of the ministers of the Western Xia, Li Qing vowed to give the status of the Western Xia Union Republic.
At the same time, it was stated that the treatment of the Western Xia royal family and major officials was retained, and the only thing needed was that Li Qianshun needed to live in Yanjing for a period of time in order to enhance his relationship with His Majesty.
All the civil and military officials of Western Xia were embarrassed, but Li Qianshun agreed with all his mouths.
"What the marshal said is very true, and I am deeply honored to be summoned by His Majesty, and I will rush to Yanjing tomorrow. The affairs of Xingqing Mansion will be handed over to the marshal. ā
Li Qing accepted Li Qianshun's talisman and seal letter, and his face was even more smiling. This seized the financial power and military power of Western Xia, which basically means that the sovereignty of Western Xia has been controlled by Yan State.
After Li Qianshun left, the Western Xia political scene was immediately divided into two factions, the local faction and the Zhiyan faction. The two factions are almost evenly matched, often pitting each other openly and covertly.
Most of the Zhiyan faction are personnel from departments such as commerce and trade, border army, and diplomacy, and they are most clear about the strength of the Yan State, and they are unwilling to start a war in their hearts. It's good to follow Yan Guo like this, at least the official position is still there, and there is more silver, why not? .
But the local faction is pedantic and stubborn, especially some stubborn old men, who are very unhappy when they see Li Qianshun being pledged away as a person. Death is a small matter, and the backbone of the solar term is indispensable, if you want to detain Emperor Xia as a hostage, I will fight for this old life, and I will ask for my life.
So he mobilized the people to petition, contacted some Western Xia officers, Haoqiang, and from time to time befriended some Yan generals, Zuo Dutou, and the like to inquire about the news.
Li Qing's brows were twisted into pimples, these old guys were really blind. When the soldiers came to the city, they were scared one by one, but now they forget the pain after the scars, and they are actually engaged in collusion in private.
I really thought that I had been an agent for ten years in vain, and I didn't say anything, so I packed it up, so as not to delay my trip to Tibet.
found the head catcher of Xingqing Mansion of the Zhiyan faction, informed him of the specific location, specific person, and agreed on the details. The catcher nodded, and withdrew to find no one to set it up.
Early the next morning, a murder occurred in a secluded house on Xiguan Street, when the imperial prince, sacrificial wine, imperial history, Xingqing Mansion rich man, big businessman, and several young people who held military power, all nine people died.
According to the two surviving singers, they were ordered to come to sing and dance yesterday, but who knew that a gang of robbers came along the way and robbed them of all their money. Before leaving, one of the officials threatened the thieves to report to the police because he was reluctant to pay for the money, so he angered the thieves and returned to kill them all.
Despite the loopholes, no one questioned them, because the nativist elite had largely lost their lives. After seven days, the gang of thieves who killed the native faction were finally brought to justice.
Cut a few death row prisoners, and temporarily solve the troubles of the local faction is really time short, otherwise you can have a little more fun.
For Li Qing, who often operates like this, as long as he controls the situation, he is currently supporting the Zhiyan faction and completely suppressing the local faction. Then find two descendants of the local faction to kill the boss of the Zhiyan faction and let them kill each other, which will soon make Xingqing Mansion complaining.
At that time, the Yan State came forward to coordinate and solve the problem, each played fifty boards, used money to promote public representatives, and then copied the improved Goryeo model, and the Western Xia was a proper good citizen.
After a month's rest, the Western Expeditionary Corps re-replenished the pathogens and equipment, and armed the 20,000 infantry troops of the Western Xia at the same time. Li Qing took the lead in sending small units of Western Xia troops to harass the Tibetans on the Tibetan and Western Xia borders, plundering people, grain, and livestock, and fleeing as soon as they saw the troops of the tribal leaders.
After several times, this rogue tactic made the leaders of more than a dozen tribes angry, so they secretly gathered 3,000 cavalry, and finally took advantage of the Western Xia army's attack to penetrate into the territory of Western Xia, preparing to completely eradicate this rogue army.
As a result, Li Qing naturally surrounded and annihilated most of the region, leaving a small part as evidence, and began to move south on a large scale into the Duokang area.
Along the way, they destroyed cities and villages, preached the technology and civilization of Yan Kingdom, and distributed food, land and seeds to Tibetans, and even provided free diagnosis and treatment of diseases to Tibetans.
For the small number of stubborn Tibetans who secretly attacked the Yan army, Li Qing did not have the patience to reason with them, and quietly captured them all through special forces and secretly executed them.
The blood of a nation is elastic, except that the stick is ruthless and accurate. If the carrot is big enough and there are more people tempted, after a few newcomers have been replaced, they will be unconsciously assimilated.
What's more, as long as there is a crowd, it is divided into left, middle and right, and razing has always been the only way for conquerors. Besides, now that Tubo is already divided and scattered, how can we concentrate all our strength to fight against the Yan Kingdom?
After taking Duokang, Li Qing went straight to Duo Sima non-stop, and won Duo Sima, basically copied the back road of the Great Song Dynasty strategically, maybe even Dali could solve it together.
With the assistance of the Western Xia army, Li Qing's advance speed was very fast, and he reached the hinterland of Duo Sima in a month.
The terrain of Duosima is complex, the war has been raged for a long time, the people are fierce, and the ten miles and eight towns are independent, once they are deeply involved, it is a headache.
Fortunately, there is Yunmen Zen Temple in charge, so Buddhism, medical skills, and food go hand in hand, which makes the head of Duo Sima dizzy. Although there were two large-scale rebellions, with the help of the Tibetan traitors, the little resistance was consumed.
As for the Weizang area on the plateau, because of the topography and altitude sickness, Han Wang instructed Li Qing to put it aside for the time being, and first concentrate on dealing with the problem of the Great Song Dynasty.
As a result, Zhao Ji once again received Han Wang's letter of state.
