......Five days, four days, three days, Zhao Yan almost counted down the days to live, the closer he got to Xi'an, the more nervous he was in his heart, although he still didn't see any shadow of the remnants of Western Xia, but it was precisely because of this that it was even more unsettling, after all, the more enemies hiding in the shadows, the more dangerous they were.

The residual snow on the ground has not yet melted, the road is also frozen hard, the horse's hooves walking on it make a sound similar to the cement road surface in later generations, Zhao Yan who was sitting in the carriage opened the window from time to time to look out, and his eyes were also full of worry, at this time he happened to see Chong Ge riding a horse walking not far away, and beckoned to the other party at the moment.

"King Jun, what's the matter?" He drove his horse to Zhao Yan's window, and then saluted.

"General Chong, there are only two days left before Xi'an Prefecture, do you think those remnants of Western Xia will do it in these two days?" Zhao Yan asked very worriedly, in the past two days, he didn't even sleep well at night because he was worried about the remnants of Western Xia.

"King Qiyu, these two days are already the last chance for those remnants of Western Xia, so the last general firmly believes that they will do it in these two days, so the last general has already ordered the brothers below to be careful and vigilant, if they dare to come, they will definitely be called back!" Compared to Zhao Yan's nervousness, he was very excited, especially when he thought that the credit for exterminating the remnants of Western Xia would fall on him, which made him feel that the blood in his whole body was boiling.

"If it's best, General Seed, you tell those soldiers who go out to patrol to be careful, don't let the remnants of Western Xia have any chance to sneak attack us!" Zhao Yan also ordered again at this time, the enemy is in the dark, I am in the light, this taste makes Zhao Yan very uncomfortable, but there is no way, I can only pin the hope of safety on those soldiers who go out to patrol.

For Zhao Yan's instructions. Chong Ge also agreed immediately, and then turned to leave, and Zhao Yan looked at the surrounding environment uneasily, and then closed the window. Zhao Yan was not the only one in the carriage, Huang Wude was also there, and he saw that after he heard the conversation between Zhao Yan and Chong Ge. At the moment, he smiled and said: "The county king doesn't have to worry, during this time, our Imperial City Division has also received some news about the movements of the remnants of Western Xia, among which several remnants of Western Xia have begun to gather in Xi'an Prefecture, probably to save Li Liangzuo out, but unfortunately our people have not been able to break into their interior." ”

When Huang Wude said to the end, his face also showed a little regret and chagrin, with the attack on Western Xia, most of the chess pieces laid by their Imperial City Division before were also exposed, although he spent a lot of energy to lay some new chess pieces during this time. However, because of the short time, the tentacles of the Imperial City Division in various parts of Western Xia were not stretched deep enough, and it was impossible to grasp the movements of those remnants of Western Xia, otherwise it would not be so troublesome for Zhao Yan to follow the adventure.

"I can't blame you for this, not to mention that your Imperial City Division made great contributions in the battle to destroy the Xia, and revealing your identity can't be avoided." Zhao Yan said comforting at the moment, but then he thought of something again, and asked Huang Wude in a deep voice. "Lao Huang, can you be sure that the leader of those remnants is Zhang Yuan's son?"

Zhang Yuan's name may not be very clear to future generations. But during the Great Song Dynasty where Zhao Yan lived, everyone knew about it, because this person was the number one traitor among the Han people, and he was originally a scholar of the Great Song Dynasty. So he took the initiative to take refuge in Li Yuanhao, who had not yet been crowned emperor at that time, and actively planned for him, becoming the first strategist around Li Yuanhao.

Zhang Yuan made a lot of contributions to Li Yuanhao, the most famous of which was the Battle of Haoshuichuan, and Li Yuanhao also obeyed Zhang Yuan's construction. defeated the Song army in one fell swoop, and as a result, more than 70,000 Song troops were killed, countless Song people were displaced, and what is even more hateful is that Zhang Yuan also wrote after the good water river, "Xia Zhu He once shrugged, Han Qi was not surprised." The dragon and tiger in the river are still talking about military aircraft. In order to ridicule the Manchu Dynasty of the Great Song Dynasty, and at the same time to vent his resentment that he failed in the imperial examination, and after this battle, Zhang Yuan became the official minister of Western Xia and became the first person under Li Yuanhao, which can be described as a spring breeze.

Later, Zhang Yuan persuaded Li Yuanhao to go south to attack the Great Song Dynasty many times, and put forward the strategy of "attacking the Han land and making the Han people defend it", but unfortunately Li Yuanhao was short-sighted, and every time he just wanted to go to the Great Song Dynasty to loot, which also led to the financial difficulties of Western Xia, and finally Li Yuanhao ignored Zhang Yuan's persuasion to negotiate peace with the Great Song Dynasty, and as a result, Zhang Yuan was depressed and finally died three years later.

It can be said that it was Zhang Yuan's plan that made Li Yuanhao defeat the Song army one after another, and finally established the country as the emperor, so the Great Song Dynasty also hated Zhang Yuan to the core, according to Huang Wude, the Imperial City Division had planned to assassinate this person many times, but unfortunately it was unsuccessful. In addition, it is worth mentioning that because of the influence of Zhang Yuan, in order to prevent the country's scholars from defecting again, the Great Song Dynasty also carried out some reforms to the imperial examination, such as giving the candidates who have failed the list many times to be born as a Tongjinshi, just to win the hearts of people like Zhang Yuan, but unfortunately this kind of measure has made the disadvantages of the redundant officials of the Great Song Dynasty more strict, and the finances are more tight.

"There is no need to doubt this, Zhang Yuan is the first strategist around Li Yuanhao, deeply trusted by Li Yuanhao, and after Zhang Yuan's death, his son Zhang Wei has been in control of the Flying Cavalry Division of Western Xia, the function of the Flying Cavalry Division is the same as our Imperial City Division, which is a secret force directly under the command of the emperor. Huang Wude also replied immediately when he heard this.

Zhao Yan also nodded when he heard this, the reason why he agreed to use Li Liangzuo as a bait to attract those remnants of Western Xia to throw themselves into the net was because he heard from Huang Wude that those remnants of Western Xia were headed by Zhang Yuan's son Zhang Wei, speaking of which, although Zhang Yuan died, their Zhang family was still loyal to Western Xia, and openly and secretly promoted the war of Western Xia against the Great Song Dynasty, for such a traitor family, Zhao Yan also hated more than anyone else, so he agreed to take this risk.

"Lao Huang, what kind of method do you say Zhang Wei would use if he wanted to save Li Liangzuo?" Zhao Yan suddenly frowned at this time and said, Zhang Wei is the big leader of the Flying Cavalry Division, Huang Wude should know something about him, and he and Huang Wude are both big spy leaders, their ideas may have something in common, so Zhao Yan will ask Huang Wude's opinion.

"This ......" Huang Wude showed a wry smile when he heard this, and only after a moment did he speak, "The king of the county doesn't know, when Zhang Yuan was alive, he was the number one target of our Imperial City Division, in order to assassinate this person, our Imperial City Division also lost a lot of manpower, and Zhang Yuan was also very clear about this, so he blocked all the news of his family, and later Zhang Wei became the leader of the Flying Cavalry Division, and paid more attention to secrecy, as a result, our Imperial City Division knew very little about Zhang Wei's situation, except for his name, We can't even determine his specific age, but according to our estimates, Zhang Wei should be a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties, and we don't know anything about his personality, so the old slave can't guess what this person thinks. ”

Zhao Yan didn't expect that Zhang Wei to be so mysterious, and even the Imperial City Division had no exact news about him, which made him frown again, because he suddenly thought of a person, that was Xu Dezu, this person also made the Imperial City Division helpless, if Zhang Wei was as difficult as Xu Dezu, it would be troublesome.

But at this moment, I saw Huang Wude think for a moment and speak again: "King Jun, although I don't know Zhang Wei, but in this situation, Zhang Wei wants to save Li Liangzuo There are only two ways, the first is to attack, but this requires strong troops, the five thousand people in the hands of the general are the elite of the Great Song Dynasty, if you want to defeat him in a short time and save Li Liangzuo, don't even think about it without 10,000 troops, but with the strength of those remnants of Western Xia, it is impossible to gather so many troops, In addition, he also has to consider that in case of a strong attack, we will use Li Liangzuo as a threat, or directly kill Li Liangzuo, so that they will not choose this method. ”

When he said this, Huang Wude paused for a moment and then said: "In addition to the strong attack, then there is only a sneak attack left, and in order to ensure Li Liangzuo's safety, they will definitely approach the vehicle holding Li Liangzuo as soon as possible, and then rescue the person from the cage, and then protect Li Liangzuo from the army. ”

Zhao Yan couldn't help but nod approvingly when he heard Huang Wude's analysis, and then suddenly smiled and said: "Old Huang, your analysis is very reasonable, that Flying Cavalry Division is the same as your Imperial City Division, they are all used to doing things in secret, since Zhang Wei has been in charge of the Flying Cavalry Division for many years, he must also be more accustomed to sneak attacks in secret, and designing traps is the strength of people like you, so I also agree with your idea very much, but no matter how clever the trap is, as long as we observe carefully, we will always find some flaws!" ”

"The king of the county is wise, although the old slave's eyes are a little old, but they will definitely not let Zhang Wei find an opportunity!" Huang Wude also immediately spoke at this time, and his face rarely showed a look of determination. The Flying Cavalry Division of Western Xia is their old opponent of the Imperial City Division, for Zhang Wei, the mysterious big leader, Huang Wude also regards it as one of his biggest opponents, this time Zhang Wei will definitely come to the rescue of Li Liangzuo, Huang Wude also secretly swore that he must take this opportunity to completely exterminate the old opponent of the Flying Cavalry Division.
