Cultural identity is far more extensive than blood identity, after the Dangxiang people have experienced the sinicization policy of several generations of emperors, especially after the introduction of a large number of Han scholars as officials, and the introduction of Han concubines as queens and princesses, they are more and more detached from the original way of life of the Dangxiang people, and they are more identified with the way of life of the Han people, rather than their previous ways.

The stronger and softer the Han culture can make them inadvertently lose their identity with their own nation, the more time passes, the less people mention the barbaric life of their ancestors Ru Mao drinking blood, and even future generations feel ashamed of their ancestors, secretly change their foreign names, or hold the surname given by the Han king, and do not let go, thinking that they are also Han people.

Small as the Western Xia, as big as the Liao State, although the military strength is much stronger than the Great Song Dynasty, but even the Liao Emperor has the mentality of saying that the grapes are sour if they can't eat grapes, and the meaning of China is not blood, but culture, with Chinese culture, I am also Chinese...... This typical sour grape psychology arises from the absolute crushing and overriding of foreign cultures by Chinese culture, so instead of dwelling on the fundamental question of ancestry, it is better to calm down and protect our culture.

And for the current Western Xia, in fact, the rule of the party has ended, even if the little emperor Li Renxiao can have a chance to grow, he will not have the opportunity to re-establish the rule of the party, Zhao Zhong, who is well versed in this aspect of the problem, has drawn up a detailed plan long before the bloody massacre, the party and the nobles have been almost wiped out, even if it is the branch clansmen scattered all over the place, it will be slowly solved by the Song army.

Zhao Zhong didn't plan to give Xixia more chances to survive, this time. is to end the fate of Western Xia.

The relocation of the Western Xia government was also part of the plan. Today's courtiers are all traitors of the Song Dynasty, and they fear the Song government more than the Emperor Xiang of the Party. Because they are traitors, or the descendants of traitors, in the archives of the Song government, they have always been rebellious, and the current Song government will not be soft on the rebellion of non-cooperation, and their own position is destined not to be forgiven by the Song government.

The higher the status of the traitor, the more desperate they are to work for the new master, because they know that they have no way out. Therefore, this group of people is destined to be wiped out.

Zhao Zhong, who kept in touch with Yue Fei, had already told Yue Fei about his plan, and Yue Fei would cooperate with Zhao Zhong's plan to end this nearly two-hundred-year-old wish.

On the eighth day of the ninth month of the fourth year of Jingkang, the central government of Western Xia announced that the capital would be moved to Liangzhou, Xiliang Prefecture, with the words "the Song soldiers are strong and sharp, and it is not the best strategy to fight with them", "the Song army came from afar, the treasury is empty, and it is unbearable to fight for a long time", "it is necessary to wait for the veterans of its division to be tired." I will wait for my work, and I will be able to break it in a battle, or make it retreat without a fight", "When the time comes, the lost land will be restored".

This is also a typical evasion tactic. Thinking that the depth of his own country was sufficient, the Song army was not well prepared, and it was already the limit to hit Xiping Mansion and Xingqing Mansion. It is not possible to fight further west, and at this moment it is only necessary to move the central government to the west. Maybe if you don't have to go to Xiliang Mansion, the Song army will already run out of food. Wouldn't it be beautiful to retreat by yourself, and then you will recover all the lost land without spending a single soldier?

Cao accepted Zhao Zhong's plan, and the ministers also praised it, the Song army fought to this point, and killed the last famous general of Western Xia, Renduo Baozhong, they really didn't have any certainty, there were more than 5,000 Imperial Forest Army and more than 30,000 militia left, the Imperial Forest Army had combat effectiveness, but the number was too small, the number of the civilian army was large, but they were all rabble, and the last central regular army was eaten by the Song army in Jinghuai Erzhou, and now they have no pathology in their hands to mobilize.

To the west, there are border guards arranged by the Western Xia government in order to guard against the rest of the tribes, as well as the garrisons of several important military governments, the distance is far away, and the news is blocked, these people do not know what happened to the central government, and they do not know the news that the emperor is dead, and the party and nobles have been killed, and now they rush over, in the name of the little emperor, they can completely command the remaining about 30,000 regular troops and border guards of the Western Xia.

In that case, if tens of thousands of people are gathered, there is still a possibility of Western Xia recovering the country.

However, they all took a step, and they didn't expect that Zhao Zhong was a senior spy of the Great Song Dynasty, doing so, such a suggestion, completely out of their own considerations, the Western Xia ostensibly occupies thousands of miles of land, the territory is vast, in fact, the essence of the land is in the Yellow River Valley, eighty percent of the population is concentrated here, the rest of the territory, either the grassland or the Gobi, or a desert where no land grows, the ruling population is sparse, almost unable to carry out agricultural labor, and has lost the fertile land centered on Xingqing Mansion, Western Xia is a dead end.

Therefore, those courtiers who were determined to follow the Western Xia to death expressed doubts, thinking that after losing the fertile land, the Western Xia simply did not have the strength to use force with the Song State, and the land area was large, but most of them were grasslands and deserts, there were no suitable agricultural areas, and the population was small, so they could not maintain enough troops. When the time comes, Yue Fei will not be needed, and a Song general with a partial division will be enough to destroy Western Xia.

Cao Shi also expressed doubts, feeling that it was too risky to do so, and everyone would be finished if it was not good, Zhao Zhong spread his hands: "Who wants to organize and command the defense of Xingqing Mansion?" And defeat the Song army? ”

The courtiers were dumbfounded, the previous Western Xia elite soldiers were exhausted, and they were cleaned up by the Song army, and no one was left, and now they have no way to fight with the elite of the Song army, the generals lowered their heads, didn't say a word, and the atmosphere didn't come out, Cao rubbed his temples helplessly, sighed, and said depressedly: "Then, withdraw!" ”

The evacuation of the central government can no longer prevent the retreat of the whole city of Xingqing Mansion, and even the symbolic defense of Xingqing Mansion out of the intention of buying time is difficult to organize.

Even their unruly vehicles carrying fine and soft utensils blocked the road, causing a fierce conflict between the government and the people, and the militia from the civilian population even fought with the Imperial Forest Army, killing hundreds of people, Zhao Zhong personally suppressed it so that it did not cause a tragedy, and after killing a few officers who took the lead in making trouble, the situation was stabilized, but Cao Shi saw it in his eyes and was worried in his heart, and said to Zhao Zhong: "They are all like this, even if they withdraw to Xiliang Mansion, can we still fight back?" ”

Zhao Zhong said: "Originally, we didn't expect to rely on them, our biggest hope is that the Song army runs out of grain and grass, retreats by itself, let's come back, spend a little time to regroup, and then fight again." ”

Cao hesitated: "Fight again? The elite soldiers of the imperial court will be lost, and there will not be many soldiers and horses to fight with the Song army within ten years, the elite soldiers and horses of the Song army will have a place to raise horses, and after ten years, I am afraid that there will be 100,000 iron horses, let's surrender directly! ”

Zhao Zhong really wanted to agree, but he knew that if he really agreed at this time, it was estimated that his head would fall to the ground in the next second, so he echoed: "The Song army is attacking fiercely this time, I'm afraid it's not for some simple purpose, it is estimated that it wants to destroy the Great Xia Kingdom, we can't surrender!" ”

Cao Shi was a little relieved at this time, and said to Zhao Zhong: "Manchu Dynasty civil and military, only you can reassure me, then you decide what happens next, I just want to settle down in Xiliang Mansion as soon as possible, and then you still have to fight, you and others discuss it, anyway, everyone else can surrender, but we can't surrender, once I surrender, the end is just like what Lu Su said Sun Quan!" ”

Cao has read the history books and knows that since ancient times, the people who surrendered have nothing to do, this is certain, so he never planned to surrender, if the Song army wants to cede the land and pay compensation, it is the best, and she agreed, she is a woman, although she has a desire for power, but she hates to fight, this is nature, but if the Song army came with the idea of destroying the country, then she had to fight, for her own life and life, women will do everything.

In this way, the central government of Western Xia moved away from Xingqingfu, the capital of more than 100 years, from Li Yuanhao's proclamation of emperor to Li Qianshun's death, the fate of Western Xia seems to be gradually clear.

I mean, it seems.

No one would have thought that the fate of Western Xia would come to an end in such a way, and the pain of being betrayed by his most trusted person, from Li Qianshun to Cao's, finally experienced it again, as the so-called is not not to report, the time has not come, and the plan to kill Li Qianshun is not proposed by Zhao Zhong, but by Cao's initiative, and now there is such an end, it is estimated that she did not expect.

When Yue Fei appeared on the migration road of the Western Xia government like a divine soldier descending from the sky, Cao's psychology collapsed, not to mention that the nearly 10,000 troops left in Xingqing Mansion to save face and delay time did not have any effect, and the three lines of defense that they were not worthy of along the way seemed to be the same, to say that all the cavalry led by Yue Fei was understandable, but how did the Song army know about the specific route of their migration?

Before the Cao clan could shift the target of their suspicions to Zhao Zhong, Yue Fei's shout sent her into the eighteenth layer of profound hell: "Brother Zhao, if you don't fight at this time, when will you stay?!" Forever, today! ”

Brother Zhao? Lifting the curtain of the carriage and looking confused, Cao Shi felt that his brain was blank, a snow-bright knife was across his neck, and the little emperor in his arms was also taken away by the knife bearer, and he cried loudly, Zhao Zhong's loyal face showed a fanatical look that made Cao feel that this person was so strange, as if he didn't know him at all, and many people in the migration team also pulled out their waist knives at that moment and crossed the neck of the important person they thought were important, An accident that shocked the world happened in front of Yue Fei's eyes.
