With the order of Zhao Xiaoxi, who was stationed in Shiwa Village, those regimental training troops who were usually scarce in weapons also enjoyed the treatment of a regular army. Both the uniforms and the weapons were all armed, and it looked like a different army.

As the commander of the regimental training army, Quartz also had a feeling of being a general for the first time. Compared with the usual training of his regiment, he is more like the owner of this fortress, and at this moment he really found a little bit of pride as a general of the unified army.

The war horses that had always been scarce, after Zhao Xiaoxi came in, took those captured war horses. All the equipment was given to the regimental training army, so that this regimental training army, which had only less than half a hundred cavalry, doubled the size of the cavalry at once.

Of course, none of this is the most important thing. The most important thing is that with the order of Zhao Xiaoxi to repair the fortress issued by the garrison officer. The people, who usually felt that they had nothing to do, suddenly became excited.

In the past, when I wanted to find someone to repair the fortress, every family would shirk it. Now I have a pound of grain a day, and I care about a meal, and almost every household goes out. Unfortunately, only one person per household was allowed to participate in the restoration of the fort.

And the happiest thing is undoubtedly the regimental training officers and soldiers who have not received their salaries for many years. In this kind of Shiwa Village, where most of the children surnamed Shi live, they nominally have a sign of regimental training, but in fact, the imperial court rarely provides them with military pay and materials.

If you don't know that you want to survive in this troubled world, you must have a protective umbrella, and these stone tile villages are young and strong. I'm afraid that I won't be so willing to join this regiment to train the army and accept the training of these border troops stationed in the village.

It is clear that if they want to live in this kind of border area, and if they want to avoid facing the destruction of their families, they must have a group to protect themselves. This is also the reason why it is extremely easy to organize regimental training troops in border areas.

As long as the local government is not allowed to provide military pay and materials, as long as there are people in this brand, those governments will approve the establishment. Anyway, the formation of each regiment training army also means that the border areas have more strength to resist.

Although the local army and officers and soldiers are clear. If a large number of enemy troops really enter the country, this kind of regimental training army composed of ordinary people will be vulnerable at all. It can be used as an observation post and to block the enemy's speed, but it can still play a role.

Three catties of grain may be nothing to Zhao Xiaoxi. But for the soldiers of these regiments who are training in the army, saving a little food is enough for a family to eat for three to five days. Plus these weapons and equipment. Every soldier who participated in the regimental training felt that it was worth it.

With this kind of favor, even if they know that Shiwazhai may encounter danger. The soldiers and civilians in the village all felt like a festival, and they were happy to carry out every order of Zhao Xiaoxi.

Zhao Xiaoxi, who came out with Zhi Zhigang and others, pointed to the busy soldiers and civilians and said: "See, these are the people on the border of the imperial court, they are easy to satisfy." Even if they knew that there would be a bloody battle next.

As military generals of the imperial court, we can't even protect these kind people. How can you be embarrassed to call yourself a general? Wen can be anbang, and Wu can defend the country, but have we really done this?

I've never been here before, and there are a lot of things I don't see and can't control. But today we are here, to let these border people who have the imperial court in their hearts understand that we, the generals, can protect them. Do you understand? ”

It is clear that among the children of the martial arts family like Zhi Zhigang, they are more eager to go into battle to kill the enemy. It is rare to think that ordinary people once support a certain army. The combat effectiveness of their outbreak is also very terrifying.

Take the opportunity to inspect the fortress. Cho Hyo-seok also told these subordinates who came in with him. Next, what they need to face is at least a thousand-man cavalry team of Western Xia.

As for whether it will be more, it also depends on how heavy the Tuoba jade is. Is it worth the Tuoba family to send more cavalry into the Song realm in advance to start a war with the Great Song Dynasty?

The Western Xia scout who had been following Zhao Xiaoxi before. After seeing Zhao Xiaoxi and others enter Shiwa Village, someone immediately sent the information back to the scout officer in the rear.

Knowing that these people did not flee in the direction of Lanzhou, the detective cavalry officer did not understand what secrets were hidden inside. But they also know that they are in their power alone. can't save Tuoba Yu who was imprisoned in Shiwa Village.

If they don't rush to the front of the army of Lanzhou City and rescue this son of the Tuoba clan, they will really be in big trouble. quickly wrote a spy report, and asked the detectives around him to quickly pass it to the Yellow River.

Let the thousand cavalry generals who are responsible for receiving information quickly bring people over to attack Shiwa Village. As long as the Song Dynasty infantry reacted and captured Shiwa Village, there would be no problem.

As for Lanzhou City, it may send cavalry into the country to block the attack, in the opinion of the scout. With the two thousand-strong cavalry teams of the Tongyuan Army, they were afraid and did not dare to leave the city.

Since the other party did not dare to leave the city all and send a thousand-strong cavalry team, don't try to get benefits from them. As for the infantry, it will take at least two days and one night. This means that time is of the essence for them.

While quickly collecting and assembling the scouts who were wandering outside, some scouts who were frightened by Zhao Xiaoxi also waited carefully. When the army arrived, he didn't believe that there was a thousand-strong cavalry team, and he couldn't pack up a few cavalry from the border army of the Song Dynasty.

When both sides began to prepare for the big battle, the three cavalry teams that had hunted here also successfully entered Shiwa Village. In this way, the cavalry team under Zhao Xiaoxi does not seem to have much problem forming a team of 100 people.

And this scene was also seen by the scout sentry wandering around. For these three cavalry of about 20 people to enter Shiwa Village, in the opinion of the cavalry officer who led the team, this person could not make a big wave.

When he took his handwritten spy report, crossed the Yellow River to deliver the emergency war report, the 1,000-man cavalry battalion. There are already some uncontrollable generals in the Western Xia, when they see that the leader's son is investigated, what kind of military discipline will they care.

Even the order to ask for instructions was omitted, and he directly ordered the cavalry to quickly cross the river and attack Shiwazhai to rescue the leader's son. As for Helian Tieshu's confession, the order that he was only responsible for covering for the scout cavalry was all left behind.

At noon, the thousand-strong cavalry of Western Xia, which had already crossed the river, had already joined up with the scout cavalry who had been waiting for a long time. Waiting for the other party to escort Tuoba Yu, stationed in the Shiwa Village, which has a regiment of about 500 people, and is protected, waiting for rescue.

The thousand-person general from the Tuoba clan sneered: "Even with the ordinary rabble, they dare to reach my thousand-person team." Ordered the whole army to quickly advance in the direction of Shiwazhai. Be sure to take the fort before midnight.

The other party dares to kill our people, this time to break through the stone tile village, the army can indulge in it for a night. Before dawn tomorrow, we will return to the territory of Western Xia, and I see what they dare to say in the Song Dynasty! ”

As soon as this order was issued, it was clear that although there were not many people in Shiwa Village, it was also a border fortress village of nearly 2,000 people. Not to mention the materials stored inside, there will not be too few women inside.

For these cavalrymen who crossed the border to fight, killing people was naturally one of their pleasures, but robbing the women of the Song Dynasty was also their greatest pleasure.

Many people feel that when they are waiting to attack, they must rush in one step ahead of others. Otherwise, beautiful women will definitely not have their share, as old cavalrymen, they are very familiar with this!

With this desire to burn, kill and loot, this thousand-person team, under the leadership of the scout, went straight to Shiwa Village. Wait until they have eaten a full meal and repair the fort to train the sentinels.

Seeing the cavalry brigade in the smoke and dust, immediately realized the arrival of their enemy. According to the order, they must now set off a puff of wolf smoke to inform the nearby fortress and the distant imperial court to send troops to help.

Otherwise, with their little strength, I am afraid that they will not be able to resist this thousand-man cavalry team for a long time. But Zhao Xiaoxi, who also saw this dusty stream, told Quartz to prepare for the war, as for this wolf smoke, there is no need to put it.

As a seasoned veteran, Zhao Da and the others knew at a glance that this was an elite Western Xia thousand-person team. Such a thousand-man cavalry team, if the Xiang army wants to take it, it needs at least 10,000 people to set up an ambush to be able to annihilate it.

Now this county prince, with such a fortress alone, a regiment of about 500 people trains the army. A cavalry team of 100 people dared to let the fortress not even let go of wolf smoke, which was indeed very surprising to everyone.

Even Quartz, who originally felt good about Zhao Xiaoxi, said with an angry face: "General Zhao, if you don't let go of the wolf smoke and ask for support, I'm afraid that I won't be able to hold on to this stone tile village for even a day."

What's more, a thousand people rode into the country, which is a big event, and other fortresses must be reminded to be vigilant. Otherwise, something big will happen! Don't underestimate these dogs! ”

Knowing that Quartz was worried about the safety of the people in the village, Zhao Xiaoxi quickly said: "Commander Shi doesn't have to worry, as long as your regimental training army is responsible, just block the attack of this thousand-man cavalry." Ben will guarantee that this thousand-man army will not return if they ride in.

What's more, Commander Shi is worried about the safety of these people, and he will have a county prince to fight with you, so I'm not afraid of what you're afraid of? ”

Lord of the county! At this moment, Quartz and the resident officials were a little dumbfounded. Originally, I thought it was the forbidden army of the imperial court, and the cavalry sent to investigate the situation on the border. But he never thought that this young general would be the prince of the county!

Seeing that Quartz and the others were in a daze, Zhi Zhigang, who was standing next to him, said: "This is the king of Bashu County in the Great Song Dynasty today, and it is also the king of Zhao County who was sent to Qin Fenglu by the imperial court this time to serve as the king of Qincha."

Commander Shi, you just need to obey orders, a team of 1,000 people is no big deal. What's more, if we dare to stay here, we will naturally have a backhand. We are not afraid, but what are you afraid of? ”

Compared with quartz, they don't know Zhao Xiaoxi's ability, and they know just these cavalry generals who know Zhao Xiaoxi. It is very clear that Wang Zishu and Yang Jinbao, who set off overnight yesterday, have not yet appeared. Naturally, there is a certain reason!

Although they don't know what this reason is, Zhao Xiaoxi dares to speak. This Western Xia thousand people have never returned, which proves that Zhao Xiaoxi has taken this situation into account. That being the case, why ask? (To be continued......)
