Chapter 764: The Peace Treaty

"Master Li Huang, Li Duanming?" Liang screamed in shock.

"Don't scream," Li Liangzuo reached out and covered her mouth.

The Liang family was still very surprised to look at the two in, the famous did not hide the six tigers, and the Liang family did not know it.

Manba explained: "They defected to me half a year ago, and asked me to take them to convey their allegiance to His Majesty. ”

Weiyang Lu Yi had already bowed down and said: "The ministers have fled since the Song Dynasty, and they have been thrown into the Wuzang Sect since the beginning, and they are lonely in Great Xia, they have done something wrong, please forgive the princess." ”

Liang continued to stare at them suspiciously.

Manba further explained: "It was their idea to remind the princess to pay attention to the father and son. ”

If they come from the Six Tigers that don't hide it, it's normal, they are cronies who don't hide it, and they can see it through the clues, it's not really a real skill. But it proves their loyalty.

Liang gradually sobered up, sat down and asked, "Why did you suddenly change your ways?" ”

Lu Yi and Wei Yang scolded in their hearts, changed their evil ways and returned to the right, look at the mess in Western Xia, Yuan Hao killed his mother and uncle, killed his son, and robbed his daughter-in-law. The son came to kill Lao Tzu again, and killed his own sister the queen mother of Xixia, as the daughter-in-law of the family without a treasure, but you have an open relationship with this little child. It's easy to see evil from top to bottom, but where is it?

can only be put in his heart, he didn't dare to say, Lu Yi said: "Princess Qiqi, the minister defected to Great Xia, and the allegiance is Great Xia, if Great Xia is loyal to Great Xia, the minister will be loyal to the Great Minister." The prime minister wanted to usurp the throne, and the minister had to go astray, change his ways, and change his ways. ”

"Well said," Liang said. In fact, she said in her heart that it was nothing more than a political speculation, but it was better not to hide Pang's cronies to learn these two evil tigers together and come to speculate, so it didn't take much to eradicate the father and son.

"Thank you, Princess," Eriri stood up in fear and stepped aside.

Liang looked at Man Baa again and asked, "How many troops can we mobilize?" ”

"I don't know, princess, if you don't know what to do, you don't know the troops," he said. How many troops there are in Western Xia, it can still be known approximately, only approximately, because there are very few permanent troops, most of them are for the people in peacetime and soldiers in wartime, and even when Yuan Hao was alive, he could not clearly say how many troops he had in the country. This doesn't matter, Guan Jian now that all armies and tribes are on that side, they don't dare to say it, and they feel the wrong object, but they have become a startling snake. Not only is it difficult to say that it is not easy to say here, but also faces this problem.

The Liang family pondered in his heart again, Manba is also a great minister, but the minister of Wen, Ban is not hiding the false Pang, but there are not many troops in his hands, or his Liang family has a little prestige in the Han Dynasty, and can obtain part of the army, as well as some loyal guards in the palace, frowned and said: "The troops are too small." ”

Wei Yang said weakly on the side: "Princess, I often hear Pang talk about it, and he seems to be quite afraid. ”

"Who?"

"Uncle Wang's name is famous."

"Uncle Wang, he's not bad," Li Liangzuo said in surprise.

The Liang clan does not have the scheming later, even if there is, they must fight the enemy together now, so they thought about it and said: "King, Ming Yao sent in to contact him." However, he did not have many troops at his disposal. ”

Wei Minglang met when Yuan Hao was alive, he has been suppressed, Yuan Hao is dead, and his brothers and sisters have also been suppressed, a very low-key entry, but he can be civil and martial, and he actually has a high prestige in Western Xia. This is only prestige, and it cannot be converted into strength.

Then he looked at the evil tigers standing in the corners on both sides and asked, "How many troops do you have?" ”

Wei Yang frowned and said: "Princess, we have some troops in our hands, and we listen to the words of the manda, understand the mentality of each general under our command one by one, once it comes in handy, we can call up the generals loyal to the royal family at any time, and kill the generals who are loyal to the unhidden." However, our army is not in Xingqing Mansion, and if we move rashly, we will be suspicious if we don't hide it. ”

There are soldiers, but there are not many soldiers, and they are not useful.

Liang thought for a long time and said: "King, there is another way for the concubine, use the way of her entry and return her body. ”

Manba said: "The princess is saying that she will hold a banquet in the palace and kill ......"

"How's that idea?"

If you use it well, it's a good idea, and if you use it badly, it's not a good idea, but you don't have many troops in your hands, so you can only use this strategy.

In April of the sixth year of Jiayou, the fifth year of the Western Xia Dynasty, and the seventh year of the Qingning Dynasty of the Liao State, it was a season full of fog.

The three countries all rose up a thick fog, through the fog, the Khitan looked at the Grand Canal of the Song Dynasty suspiciously, and a few people saw that it was a manifestation of strength, and the sky in the south was getting brighter and brighter, I don't know if it was an illusion, after the fog dissipated, what was the truth, they didn't dare to judge. Most people can't see it, they still have the same view as before, that is just rich, not powerful. As for Western Xia, it has been completely covered by a thick fog, and he can't see clearly, where can he see the distance?

The Yinchuan Plain was foggy and confused, and it was drowsy.

In late April, Li Liangzuo was invited to the banquet without hiding the false Pang banquet, but Li Liangzuo said that he was not sick.

seems to be sick, and his daughter-in-law has not entered the palace for several years.

At the end of April, Li Liangzuo's illness recovered, and the edict did not hide the false Pang Jinjian.

Seeing that Li Liangzuo's plan succeeded, just before he didn't hide Pang and enter the palace, he didn't have a word of mouth, and said: "Great Minister, you can't have the heart to prevent entry, you can't have the heart to harm you, and you can't prevent it in extraordinary seasons." ”

After hearing this, Pang didn't hide it, and his footsteps stopped.

He looked at the blue and asked, "Qingdu, what do you want to say?" ”

"Great Minister, the king is not terrible when he is young, but what is terrible is Baa."

"What's so terrible about him?"

"There's still a lot of fun, there's more. The subordinates felt a little uneasy. ”

didn't hide Pang Pang to let him say it, and he also felt a little uneasy, first to attack to be strong, and then to suffer. Don't start yourself, let this yellow-haired boy start, then leave a laugh in the annals of history. So he made some arrangements, arranged some cronies, and led the army to be transferred to the vicinity of the palace. I'm also afraid that don't be ashamed to laugh at yourself that the grass and trees are all soldiers, and you don't adjust too much, just in case. I picked a few fierce tiger soldiers to protect me and entered the palace together.

Entering the palace, as usual, he bent his body slightly, preparing to speak, and suddenly a eunuch shouted: "You are bold and don't hide, why don't you worship when you see the king?" ”

"I am the king's own uncle."

"You still know that you are my own uncle, where are you coming," Li Langzuo shouted.

He didn't hide that Pang knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly retreated, and several soldiers pounced, and many armor soldiers poured out of the palace, and under the cover of the soldiers, they fought and fled.

Seeing that several soldiers were quickly killed, Wang Wenliang, a close confidant who did not hide the false Pang, entered the palace with nearly a hundred armor soldiers.

Hearing the incident in the palace, Wei Minglang Yu took the noble children of Xingqing Mansion loyal to the Li family and then pounced. At this time, the battlefield expanded beyond the palace. The situation has become uncontrollable even for those who have not hidden it.

When the palace incident happened, Manba took his cronies to the Wuzang Mansion, and Wuzang Pang Qizi led his family to fight back. After all, he was not a regular soldier opponent, and soon the Tibetan Mansion was lost, and Manba killed Pang Qi's brother and nephew on the spot and the foreign appointees, and the son of Pang who did not hide the slander saw the opportunity, and led a part of it to escape and join his father.

Manba brought in and searched for the Liang family, and said, "Can the princess be safe? ”

"Okay, how did it get like this out there?"

"It's hard to put into words," Manba quickly recounted.

"The old thief is cunning."

But he still had the advantage, and his henchmen and soldiers gradually stabilized the situation, and only some of the soldiers were led by Wei Minglang and relied on the walls of the palace to resist stubbornly.

In the afternoon, two more armies forced their way into Xingqing Province.

The army led by Li Huangzhu and Li Duanming, before the Xingqing Mansion incident, the army of the second general quietly moved for dozens of miles, not approaching Xingqing Mansion, but close to Xingqing Mansion. After receiving a report from the probe in the city, he quickly gathered all the generals, and the generals who were loyal to the unhidden Pang asked him to send all his cronies to be killed on the spot and lead the army into the city.

When the two armies entered the city, Li Liangzuo's strength increased greatly, and some of the magnates who were dissatisfied with the lack of concealment also led their subordinates to take up arms to resist. Seeing that it was not good for him, he had no choice but to fight and retreat outside the city. At the same time, an order was issued to summon the army, "King Qin to eliminate thieves".

A wave of soldiers and horses arrived, but Li Liangzuo took control of the city of Xingqing Mansion and closed the city gate.

The situation is still very unfavorable for Li Liangzuo. Sitting in the palace to discuss countermeasures, Liang said: "The king, the concubines have been sent to inform my two elder brothers, so that they can gather warriors and come to defend the king. ”

The encounter between the man and the famous wave is silent.

It is good to enter more, but for the strength of the Liang family, neither of them is taken to heart.

Li Duanming, who was standing behind, suddenly said: "The king, the ministers have a good plan. ”

"Say," Li Liangzuo said. At the most dangerous time, it was these two who reformed and returned to the right and led the army to kill, otherwise they would be more and less murderous.

"There are several cronies under the command of the Hidden False Pang, who have a slight relationship with the minister, and the minister will try to see if he can convince them."

"You said you didn't hide the Six Tigers?"

Li Duanming was embarrassed and did not speak.

"It's okay, as long as you can change your evil and return to the right, you are all my pillars."

"King, among the other four entrants, none of the Tibetan Qing are loyal to the old thief who is not hidden, no, they are obsessed, and it may be difficult to convince."

"Yes, it was he who led the army to cover the old thief, otherwise he would have killed the old thief in the city." Li Liangzuo said hatefully.

"You're saying the other three can convince?" Wei Minglang's eyes lit up.

For so many years, the Song Dynasty has been secretly helping, and Liujin has made many great achievements, plus the assistance has not hidden the false Pang, although it is not as strong as Li Qing in history, but there is a lot of strength in his hands. If you can convince you, there is a clever plan in Wei Minglang's brain.

"I don't know, I can only say give it a try."

Night came again, it was the second evening of the Xingqing Incident, and the fog rose early from the Yellow River.

Every time it dragged on, the situation deteriorated, and there were many tribes loyal to Li Liangzuo, but they didn't dare to express their stance when they saw that Li Liangzuo's situation was bad. However, they were loyal to the soldiers and tribes who did not hide the false Pang, and continued to increase their troops to Xingqing Mansion.

In fact, for the Song Dynasty, this time is the best opportunity, if a civil war is formed, the Song Dynasty in the civil war to the last moment, take the opportunity to enter, can realize the idea of destroying the Western Xia in one fell swoop. But when it comes to controlling the Yellow River, he can only do some tricks to further weaken the power of Western Xia.

Several black shadows fell under the walls of the city with the help of ropes, and then disappeared into the night.

When the third death came, he didn't hide that Pang saw the increase in the number of soldiers around him, and his courage was stronger, so he came to the city gate and shouted to the above, so that the city would hand over the national thief Wei Minglang and Manba, and then shout for himself. Why did the king kill himself and destroy the Great Wall, it was a foolish baa. Anyway, it was Li Liangzuo who made the first move, and although he was arrogant, he didn't make a move, and some of them were still confused by him.

Man Baa had no choice but to go to the city, reprimanded for not hiding the false Pang, the two entered the fight for half a mouth, no one won the fight, the main Li Liangzuo is too small, did not hide the false Pang to gain power, the right will inevitably fall into the hands of the black Pang, the power of the ten ** will also fall into the hands of the manba. The truth is only in the hands of a few, how can ordinary people identify it?

After arguing for a long time, he didn't win, he was so angry that his chest hurt, and he came to the palace and said to Li Liangzuo: "The only plan for now, please remove the ministers, the thief will be speechless." ”

"Manqing's words are wrong, I can't do this, if so, who will be loyal to me." However, under the bewitchment of the Liang family, Li Liangzuo has been named the famous Langyu as the military minister to check and balance the manba.

Another pass, there is no hidden Pang outside the city, a large number of siege equipment is already being prepared, the city wall of Xingqing Mansion is tall, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but if the siege of the city is not the Song Dynasty soldiers, not the Khitan soldiers, but the transformation of the city has not been hidden, it is not easy to say.

Wei Ming Langyu stood at the head of the city, anxiously waiting.

One more passes, two more passes, three more passes. Suddenly, there were three fires from the camp opposite. Not in one place, but enough, Wei Minglang Yu hurriedly ordered the soldiers to raise torches and wave them in the air to form a signal. With the unconcealed deception, the huge camp began to be in chaos.

Wei Minglang shouted to his side: "Open the city gate and go to war." ”

As he spoke, he also went down to the city, mounted his war horse, and led the soldiers in the city to kill him. First there was internal cannibalism, and then the army in the city came out. In the foggy night, I didn't know how many enemies had come, and I didn't even know where the enemy had come from. After only a short battle, they were all defeated and fled to the Yellow River without their lives. In order to escape the Yellow River, thousands of soldiers drowned on the Yellow River alone.

On the first day of the fifth month, the six notorious six tigers who did not hide the six notorious Pangshou were betrayed by three tigers, and they joined forces with the Western Xia army in the city to consolidate the Western Xia royal family.

He was defeated outside the city of Xingqing Mansion and retreated to Lingzhou.

On the third day of the fifth month, Wei Minglang met the troops and the generals of Helan Mountain, gathered into horses, crossed the Yellow River, and marched into Lingzhou. Moreover, the betrayal of five of the six tigers made Pang Weizang suspicious of the remaining tigers and the remaining tigers.

Seeing the royal family's victories, during the siege of the city, there were many powerful people in the city who betrayed and did not hide the false Pang. In order to express his loyalty to Wuzang Pang, when retreating, he killed all the people in the city who responded to the royal family, implicated many innocent people, and then almost burned Lingzhou City to ruins.

Didn't hide Pang looked at everything he did coldly, and when he was done, he said, "It's over, it's over." ”

In fact, I like to do this without Tibetan blue, otherwise everywhere I pass, I will respond to the royal family, and I have no way out. This time, no navy blue is completely tied to a rope with him, so he began to rest assured.

But let all the Tibetan blue be killed and burned, and Lingzhou City almost became a pile of ruins.

No matter what happened in the end, this time Xixia really lost his vitality. He slowly retreated to Yanzhou, sent troops to transfer generals, and controlled all the eastern states. Several prefectures east of Yanzhou are where Li Jiqian's nest is located, and it is also where there are no Tibetans.

However, with the shift of the political center of Western Xia, loyalty declined slightly, and it was difficult to distinguish between black and white, coupled with everything that no Tibetan Qing had done in Lingzhou City, which made some tribes silent, and the two forces formed a stalemate.

However, the stalemate will not last too long, the east of Yanzhou is the main production area of Western Xia green salt, and the Yinchuan Plain is the main grain production base, both of which are indispensable. Forced to be helpless, Wei Ming Langyu led the army to the east again, and the two armies fought fiercely outside Yanzhou City. The two armies suffered casualties and heavy losses, and they did not distinguish between victory and defeat.

In the Western Xia over the years, the Uighurs, the Tibetans, and the Song Dynasty, the Khitan, and even the north to block the divination, if the victory, can also inspire into the heart, can continue to appear some defeats, coupled with this civil war, all ethnic groups began to appear war-weary.

Li Liangzuo convened his confidants and ministers to discuss countermeasures, and there were not many enters, only about fifty entered, including Manba, Wei Minglangyu, and a thousand nobles, Liang Yiburi, who heard the news and raised troops to respond to the royal family, Liang Yongneng's brothers, as well as various magnates and some major clan leaders, as well as Li Huangzhu and Li Duanming. Even the next three are not eligible to join, but it also means that Wei Yang and Lu Yi have really entered the core of Western Xia's power.

But Erjin is very conscious, maybe he has a ghost in his heart, sits at the bottom, and has been silent.

Wei Minglang didn't know the inside story, and when he saw that Erjin was low-key, he thought that they were ashamed and uneasy about what they had done before, and persuaded him: "Lord Li Huang, Li Duanming, don't think too much, this merit is safe for the royal family, and you have made great contributions." ”

"The subordinates don't dare." The two replied in unison.

The other nobles looked at each other, and Liujin helped not hide Pang to do many evil things, and despite this meritorious service, many people were still dissatisfied in their hearts. However, the enemy does not dare to express this dissatisfaction. However, the five were very low-key after returning to Shun, and they also won some recognition.

Wei Minglang Yu began to get to the point, saying: "Before the first king left, he left a will, let us guard against the Khitan and the Song Dynasty. Originally, after the first king negotiated peace with the Song Dynasty, our dynasty and the Song Dynasty have been at peace. Although the Song Dynasty supported our DPRK's supplies and was uneasy, they just wanted to watch the two tigers fight and watch from the wall, so that the border would be fine, and did not encroach on the heart of our dynasty. ”

Li Huang said: "Prime minister, my subordinates are afraid of that Zheng Xianggong." ”

"Lord Li Huang, you don't have to worry, the Song Dynasty won't pay much attention to you, besides, although that Zheng Xianggong is good, the Song Dynasty is not his, he doesn't talk as soon as he enters, and he hasn't entered the two mansions of the Song Dynasty for several years, and the emperor of the Song Dynasty is not afraid of him. There is another thing, a few years ago, Cheng Lin of the Song Dynasty offered a plan to let the Song Dynasty win over the three major generals of the Nuo Transfer, and allow him to make official positions and veto them for the Song Dynasty. Therefore, the only solution is the Song Dynasty. ”

Liang frowned and said, "Great Minister, you can't despise the Song Dynasty. ”

"I didn't despise the Song Dynasty, but my country was already an enemy on all sides, and if the Tibetans didn't invade him, they might not dare to invade us, but there was no way to ask for their help. Unlike the Song Dynasty, the Khitan had the ambition to swallow up our country several times. Besides, there is also a Ning Lingge in the country. ”

When it came to Brother Ning Ling, the Liang family couldn't be silent.

"However, this thief invaded the Song Dynasty several times, invaded and invaded, causing the Song Dynasty to cut off the New Year's gift and prohibit mutual markets, making our people miserable." If you don't stay in Western Xia, you don't know how important the mutual market is. Since the severance of the mutual market, a silk in the Western Xia rose again to more than five dollars, if it is banned for a long time, it will rise, not only the cloth and silk have risen, porcelain, tea and other materials have had a serious price rise turmoil. When it comes to the mutual market, the nobles are even more silent.

Man Baa asked: "Uncle Wang, even so, Song Chaojin is not a fool, why help us?" ”

"Zhongye, I have a way to let them help us, and the Song Dynasty has had several disputes with our dynasty over the years for the sake of Qu Yehe. It is better to send an envoy to negotiate peace with the Song Dynasty and promise to hand over the area around the Quye River to the Song Dynasty, but the Song Dynasty must also promise to send troops to help, and in the future, the two countries will make peace and reopen the mutual market to pay tribute. ”

The land around the Quye River is fertile, and everyone was silent after hearing this.

Wei Minglang said: "Everyone, maybe you think it is humiliating, but if you want the Song Dynasty to reopen the mutual market and the Sui Gong, and ask them to send troops to help, it is just a Qu Yehe, and the chips are not high. In fact, what is the peace covenant, the power is strong, several generations of ancestors can grab a large area of land from the Song and defeat the Tibetan Uighurs, why can't we do it. At the moment, it is urgent to defeat the old thief who did not hide first, and then work hard, why can't you recapture Quye River, even Fulin Erzhou, and even Jingwei! ”

One sentence wakes up all the dreams that enter, the peace treaty, what is the peace treaty, that is to bind those fools in the Song Dynasty. Since the founding of the Western Xia, when has the peace treaty been observed!
