The recovery of Liangzhou, Ganzhou, and Suzhou, a piece of good news passed through the flying pigeon of the staff pavilion, and it was transmitted to Tokyo at the fastest speed, and the whole Tokyo suddenly fell into a sea of festivities.

Ordinary people saw the growing prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty, while the merchants saw unlimited business opportunities; Hexi was recovered, countless loot needed to be sold, and once the Hexi Corridor was opened, the eastern section of the Silk Road would be unhindered.

The treasures of the Western Regions, due to the isolation of things for many years, are mostly sky-high prices in the Central Plains, and the silk, tea, etc. in the Central Plains are also more expensive than gold in the Western Regions.

Han Bi'er's caravan was the first to set off, and then countless caravans followed closely to the west, and the imperial court, due to the situation, immediately posted a notice that large caravans would go to the Western Regions to do business, and in some areas that had not yet stabilized, they would be escorted by the army without charging any fees.

When Wang Shaogang recovered the land of Xihe, the imperial court also vigorously encouraged merchants to go to Hehuang to do business, and gave many preferential policies.

As soon as the notice of the imperial court came out, it was a sensation in the whole country, and the caravans to the Western Regions were on the way, a busy scene.

The court was not idle, and the meetings of the political hall were held day after day, all to discuss how to govern Hexi.

Cai Jing was the most anxious, and when he conquered Hexi, the imperial court set a policy that it would purge the big foreign families in Hexi to eliminate their intertwined forces; This kind of purity will definitely bring a huge amount of income to the imperial court, as for whether it will make Hexi wither, you don't have to worry about it at all, you can see the endless caravans to the Western Regions, Hexi will only be more prosperous than before, and you don't have to worry about the livelihood of Hexi withering due to the purge.

At the meeting of the political hall on this day, Cai Jing said loudly: "With the recovery of Liangzhou, Ganzhou, and Suzhou one after another, the remaining Guasha Prefecture has become a lone army, and if it is trapped, it is only a matter of time before it is recovered, so I think that the imperial court should immediately start sending officials to take over the governance of Hexi, count the spoils, manage the livestock of Hexi, set up a farm, and collect commercial taxes!" ”

Zhang Dian nodded and said: "Hexi is dominated by animal husbandry, since the founding of our dynasty, there has been a lack of war horses, and now that Hexi has been recovered, we should set up a group husbandry department in Hexi as soon as possible to manage animal husbandry in Hexi!" ”

Su Song said: "After the recovery of Hexi, if you want to maintain long-term stability, it is necessary for the imperial court to move the people to the border, and after agriculture and animal husbandry flourish together, you can raise them while reducing the loss of grain and grass from the mainland." ”

Li Qingchen continued: "Since the imperial court has decided to use the Xia army captives to govern the river, it should start moving inward together with their families as soon as possible, so that the west of the river can be quickly stabilized, and the second can speed up the speed of river control. ”

General Xu continued: "On the Hexi side, because General Yang adopted the strategy of rapid attack and war maintenance, our dynasty has not suffered much loss due to the actual war in Hexi, and is fully capable of fighting again; In terms of Hetao, due to the loss of Hexi and the loss of 50,000 troops in Liangting, the hearts of the Western Xia army and the people must be more chaotic, and it is very likely to cause a major shock in the situation of the Western Xia Dynasty, so it is necessary to make all roads in Shaanxi ready, once the situation is favorable, immediately send troops to seize the five states of Dingyan, and even the entire Hetao. ”

Yang Wei, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said: "In addition to dispatching officials to govern Hexi, we should also set up schools in various towns and cities as soon as possible to teach Confucianism; At the same time, an edict was issued that as long as the people of all ethnic groups in Hexi were innocent, they could participate in the imperial imperial examination, which has won the hearts of the people. In addition, we will promote our Chinese clothing and music, and assimilate the people of different races as soon as possible, so that we can achieve long-term peace and stability. ”

Yang Wei's move has been praised by everyone, the imperial court sometimes opens Enke, just to win the hearts of the people in the world, the land of Hexi has just been laid, and the people of all ethnic groups are immediately allowed to participate in the imperial examination, which will have a great effect on gathering the hearts of the people of all ethnic groups; But in fact, this is just a blank check, Hexi has just recovered, backward in culture and education, and compared with the readers in the mainland who have been digging through countless scriptures since childhood, Hexi scholars have little hope of becoming a scholar; But it doesn't matter, the imperial court has given you a chance to compete fairly, whether you can win the title of the gold list is up to you, and you can't blame anyone if you can't pass the exam.

The high-ranking officials of the empire in the political hall are constantly improving the plan for governing Hexi and strengthening the war preparations in the Hetao area.

After each measure is approved by the government affairs hall, the Shangshu Province will assign the work, and the relevant departments will act quickly; Zhang Dian has been in power for several years, and most of the officials in the DPRK and China are also accustomed to his vigorous and resolute style of doing things, and Zhang Tun's iron-fisted methods make every perfunctory official have to think about the consequences.

And now that Zhang Shangying has just been appointed as the servant of the Ministry of Officials, he is in charge of the examination of officials, and the enthusiasm of Zhang Niuren's new official has not passed, so don't bump into him.

The war in Hexi has not completely ended, and the officials sent to govern Hexi have already gone on the road, and a large number of officials are specifically responsible for moving people to Hexi; The Xia army prisoners and their families need to be relocated to the Jinghu area, and the Xiang army and their families who have been laid off this year will also be gradually moved to Hexi, which will cost a huge amount; Of course, after recovering Hexi, Yang Yi and their "clearing" of the remnants, they will inevitably reap a huge amount of money, and how many have not been counted yet, but it should be almost enough for the relocation.

Shule River is one of the three major inland rivers in the Hexi Corridor, originating in the western section of Qilian Mountain, with abundant water, flowing north to the vicinity of Guazhou, the river turns westward, flows through Shazhou, Yumen Pass, and joins Puchanghai. It is precisely because of the moisture of the Shule River that the melon and sand areas have become a rich green state.

Since ancient times, in order to compete for the western end of the Hexi Corridor, a land rich in water and grass, countless wars have been fought here, and countless blood has flowed into the Shule River.

Today, the Shule River once again ushered in the Jin Ge Iron Horse, from the east, is more than 10,000 Song troops led by Yang Yi; From the west, it was a 20,000 Xia army led by Ye Li'an, the commander of the Xiping Army of Western Xia.

The poplar forest by the river was blown up and down by the wind, and on the grassland, as far as the eye could see, the two armies lined up several miles apart, both sides were full cavalry, the war horses neighed, and the banners waving in the wind were hunting.

Ye Li Yean knew very well that he was already alone, and being trapped in an isolated city would only make morale even lower, which was almost like waiting for death.

The Xiping Military Division had a total of nearly 30,000 horses, and he left the infantry in the city and led 20,000 cavalry to meet Yang Yi.

Nearly two to one ratio of troops, and the Song army is tired from afar, the chance of victory is still very good, at least Ye Li Ye'an thinks so.

Yang Yi once again asked Renduo Baozhong to persuade him to surrender, Renduo Baozhong had already accepted his fate, knowing that Yang Yi brought himself to Hexi to do this, and he also understood that Xixia was not good, it really didn't work, and Da Song treated himself well, so let's cooperate honestly!

Yang Yi didn't expect Renduo to be loyal enough to persuade the 20,000 Xia troops to lay down their arms and surrender, he just wanted to hit the morale of the Xia army in this way, for example, if he was captured, the Xia army let himself go to the front of the battle to persuade the Song army to surrender, and it would be a fatal blow to the morale of the Song army.

Renduo Baozhong went to persuade him to surrender, but the Xia army did not surrender, there is nothing to say, fight!

The rumbling of the war drums shook the world, and the horn of the Xia army also sounded at the same time, the sound was like a whimper, and the entire Shule River became solemn, and the tense atmosphere before the war seemed to condense the air.

This time, Yang Yi will personally put on the battle, surrounded by Hua Mulan and Wang Yong, Wang Yong, these people have followed Li Xiangxian to Khorasan, after countless life and death battles, twenty of them are all crescent-shaped Damascus knives, cold light!

And Liu Laohu led 5,000 men and horses on the right flank, and formed a 60-degree angle with Yang Yi's brigade to kill the enemy formation, of course, everything depends on the situation.

"Kill!"

Yang Yi roared, the Crescent Moon Treasure Knife pointed forward, and the dark clouds covered the snow with a long hiss, and rushed out like an arrow off the string!

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The roar behind him like a tsunami pierced the heavens and the earth, and the roaring horse's hooves shook the Shule River with ripples, and a red wave rushed towards the Xia army with an indomitable momentum.

Ye Li Ye'an on the opposite side was also the first to kill, and he knew that only in this way could he slightly arouse the low morale of the Xia army.

Two red clouds and a dark cloud approached the earth quickly, and finally collided together, the churning dust blurred people's vision, and the huge shouts of killing converged in one voice, making the heavens and the earth change color!

Yang Yi rushed towards Ye Li Ye'an, his thousand-mile divine horse had extraordinary foot strength, and in order to cooperate with the military formation behind, he had been deliberately controlling the speed of the dark clouds covering the snow.

When the distance between the two sides was several feet, Yang Yi loosened the reins and clamped the horse's belly, and the dark clouds covered the snow suddenly accelerated, like a dragon going out to sea, flying towards Yeli Ye'an.

Yeli also didn't expect this, caught off guard, there was no way to avoid it, so he had to rise up to meet it, Yang Yi shouted violently, stood up, and slashed away with the knife in both hands with the strength of his whole body, the knife light flew like a horse, and Yeli also fought hard to raise the knife to block...... Boom! A clear sound.

Ye Li Ye'an's knife was chopped, and the knife light in Yang Yi's hand was castrated, and with another pop, Ye Li Ye'an's great head flew into the air, and blood flew out!

And Yang Yi's blow with all his strength was still not contained, and he chopped off a piece of horse stock before the treasure knife was withdrawn.

Ye Li Ye'an was killed in front of him, and the headless corpse fell to the ground with the war horse, which was extremely tragic.

The Song army's formation suddenly heard the cheers like waves crashing on the shore, and the morale was even higher, and everyone roared loudly, rushing into the enemy formation to sacrifice life and death to slash!

And Xia Jun was so frightened that his face was colorless, and no one dared to go against Yang Yi's blade, so they avoided it one after another, but where could they avoid it?

"Yeli Ye'an has been punished, and those who descend will not be killed!"

"Yeli Ye'an has been punished, and those who descend will not be killed!"

…… Yang Yi shouted while rushing to kill, and the soldiers behind him also shouted in unison, and the sound pierced through the stratus clouds. This made the fighting spirit of the Xia army collapse as quickly as an avalanche, and defeat was inevitable.

Yang Yi can be said to have used the advantages of the treasure knife and BMW to the extreme, so that he can slash and kill the enemy commander in one face! And this will surely become another legend of his.
