Volume 11 Zhang Gong looked north and shot the wolf Chapter 1099 Frightened
When the envoy of the Naiban Ministry came to the camp of the Left Chamber, Li Yuanhan had only just regained the power of the Left Chamber......
It is only two years to leave here, but the laziness of the soldiers of the Left Wing Military Division, the laxity of military discipline, the greed and extravagance of the officers, and so on, are all shocking.
However, Li Yuanhan is not surprised by these changes, everyone inside and outside the entire Western Xia Dynasty is like this, not only the Left Wing Military Division, he has long been used to it.
In fact, since the founding of the Western Xia, although in accordance with the regulations of the Han people, the official military system has been established to recruit talents.
But after all, the customs are different, and the Western Xia is rising in the desert land, and the various ethnic groups are mixed, so all along, the Western Xia has not broken away from the habits of the grassland tribes from the root, and is still composed of various tribal alliances.
In fact, the Western Xia is mountainous and the Gobi Desert is divided, and its tribal composition is roughly divided into three parts.
The mountain people, the desert tribes and the plain tribes, among them, the people of the mountain tribes are fierce, and they are the most important source of Western Xia soldiers.
The ruling class of the Western Xia mainly came from the desert tribes, which has a great relationship with the place where the ancestors of the Dangxiang people rose.
The plains tribes, but mostly Han people, good at farming, although at the bottom of the Western Xia, but the Western Xia money and grain, mostly from the plains, this situation is actually no different from the Jin State, although the status of the Han people is low, but it is the foundation of the Western Xia state, of course, now it is also the source of the chaos in the Western Xia.
The nobles were tyrannical and extravagant, and the various tribes in the plains were oppressed and frequently resisted.
Li Yuanhan was born in the party and aristocrats, although he has ambition and talent, but he can only let such things go, and there is not much to think about.
Because compared with the Jin State, the Western Xia, which has always been closed, is more conservative, and the power of the party and other nobles of various ethnic groups is more powerful and stubborn, which also means that the status of the Han people and several other tribes is even lower, and the most important table is not how many Han people are in the court, but the Han army in the Western Xia army, which has not been large.
This is also the fundamental reason why after the Western Xia occupied the Hexi Corridor and the rich land of the Hetao, the territorial expansion once came to a standstill, and the Jin State and the Qin people were defeated one after another.
If there are still some far-sighted people in the Jin Kingdom, who are doing their best to think about the great cause of Zhongxing, then here in Western Xia, even a party leader like Li Yuanhan does not have any idea of finding another path for Western Xia.
Their vision and talents are limited by geography, and most of them are spent on infighting and suppressing rebellions of various ethnic groups, and they cannot look too far.
Having said that, when the Western Xia was founded, Yuan Hao divided his soldiers into two compartments, and the right wing military division was stationed in Ganzhou, Suzhou and other places to prevent the Tibetan Uighurs.
The Left Xiang Military Division was stationed in Yinzhou, Xiazhou and other places, and fought endlessly with the Khitans and Jurchens.
To this day, the two major military groups of the Western Xia, in the continuous political struggles and conquests, have risen and fallen, and gradually weakened, and the military power has been gradually divided among other military divisions.
Up to now, the six major military divisions are in the side ......
The Right Wing Military Division is stationed in Xiliang, which is an important town in Western Xia, and the Right Wing Military Division has been able to be self-sufficient and trade with Tubo, and the benefits of the Right Wing Military Division here are really indescribable.
The Yeli clan of the Western Xia Hao clan has always controlled the military power of the Right Wing Military Division, and the rebellion of the Right Wing Military Division was an effort made by the Ye Li clan to the position of the Western Xia Prime Minister.
However, in the end, the Yeli clan was defeated in front of the scheming Li Yuankang, and the right wing military division also underwent a purge.
After that, Tubo, who had not been at war for many years, brazenly sent troops, breaking Zhuo Luo and the Southern Military Division under the Right Wing Military Division, and Tu Zhuo Luocheng, which was another heavy blow to the Right Wing Military Division.
In addition, the Gansu military division was stationed in Ganzhou, which was controlled by the attached Ganzhou Uighurs, although it was nominally under the jurisdiction of the Right Xiang Military Division, but in fact, those Uighurs had been self-contained for many years, and they had been eye-browning with their counterparts in the west, and had gradually become a problem for the southwestern Xia henchmen, but at this time, the Right Xiang Military Division, for the suppression and threat of the Uighurs, had weakened to the lowest point in hundreds of years, and if it had not been for the First World War, the Uighurs of Western Xia had been deeply wounded, otherwise, it would be difficult to say that Shazhou, Suzhou, Ganzhou and other places were not under the control of Western Xia.
Therefore, the Right Wing Military Division now has Xiliang Heavy Land in hand, but it is the least optimistic among the six military divisions.
The military division of Baima Town and the Yan military division of Heishui Town are facing the northwest, and they are always vigilant against the Khitans.
The Xishou Military Division was stationed in Xiaoguan, the Jingsai Military Division was stationed in Weizhou, and the Zhongsai Military Division was stationed in Lingzhou, forming a huge military group, defending the important places leading to Xingqing Mansion in the south to the Western Xia Jingshi, and confronting the Qin people's northwest border army.
The Left Xiang Military Division, the Black Mountain Weifu Military Division, the Mi'e Prefecture Military Division, and the Jianing Military Division, in a fan-like manner, defended the Henan land where the Western Xia was based, which was called the Hetao land in later generations, in addition to facing the threat of the Qin Yanzhou army, but also to guard against the invasion of Henan by the Jin people and the grassland tribes.
It can be said that now the major military divisions of Western Xia, the most warlike is naturally the military division of Baima Town, these desert warriors, although the number is small, but the fierce and bloodthirsty place, beyond the reach of other Western Xia departments, but unfortunately, stationed on the edge of the sand for many years, facing the desert has always been a strong tribe and sand thieves, defending the northwest of the Beijing Division, but the opportunity to face foreign enemies is very few......
And the most powerful is the Left Chamber's Military Division, and the subordinate major military divisions are all Western Xia elites, who have fought against the Jin and Qin people for many years, and also ensured the combat power of the Zuoxiang Military Division.
As the nephew of Minister Li Yuankang and the most trusted person, after Li Yuanhan emerged, he took charge of the military division of the left wing, and this is also the place where Minister Li Yuankang started.
The loyalty of the Left Wing Military Division is unquestionable, but the greed of the generals of the Left Wing Military Division is also obvious to all.
They occupy the richest place in Western Xia, with a large area of arable land and pastures for grazing horses, and all positions here are rich and flowing, even if Western Xia is declining today, there are countless Western Xia nobles, who sharpen their heads and want to find a position here but can't get it.
Although he has been at war with the Qin people and the Jin people for many years, the matter of secretly selling war horses to the Qin State and the Jin State has been repeatedly prohibited.
Silk, tea and other precious and delicate things of the Han people, can be seen everywhere here, Uighur, Naiman, Khitan and other merchants of various ethnic groups detour through the grassland, quietly come here to trade, if it is not for the Qin border army not to allow merchants to enter, otherwise, it will be more prosperous here than ten times.
Even so, the huge profits from trading with the Jin people made merchants of all ethnic groups take risks and shuttle through the borders.
In the past two years, under the abolition of military discipline, trade has flourished, especially when the Qin people captured Hedong, but they have not really stabilized, and the border is in chaos, and the trade is even more prosperous and unbelievable.
Soldiers and merchants colluded to sell military supplies, grain, grass and horses, and even ordnance kept flowing into the eastern mountains and then scattered everywhere.
When Li Yuanhan returned here, the military commander of the right wing had actually been eroded to a certain extent, and it was okay to say that it was a mess.
Li Yuanhan was extremely distressed, but it was not surprising, but on the one hand, he rectified military discipline, and on the other hand, he summoned his cronies and generals to reoccupy the high-ranking and important positions of the left wing military department, even so, he could only slightly suppress this kind of private situation that had been flooded.
The businessmen of all nationalities who were arrested walked into the prison of the Left Wing Military Division today, and they may walk around with swagger tomorrow, such a thing is not at all stopped by one or two people, from top to bottom, the yang and yin of the noble generals, all make people have a deep feeling of helplessness.
And the barbarian envoy came to Li Yuanhan at such a time.
Hearing about the grasslands, Li Yuanhan was shocked......
He couldn't help but be surprised, unlike other party nobles, he has led the army to fight over the years, and his vision and knowledge have gradually matured.
The Tibetan lowlands were attached to the Qin people, and the Qin people now possessed the Hedong lands, if the Qin people broke through the grassland tribes again, in fact, most of the Western Xia was already surrounded by the Qin people......
A little fear rose in his heart.
Zhao Shi, Zhao Zhuguo.
No one knows this name anymore, and no one knows his experience better than him.
With the strength of the Qin people, this famous general of Western Qin, who rose to prominence in the Battle of Qingyang Mansion, has now become the most terrifying enemy of all countries in the world.
Serving in the army at a young age, for more than ten years, he fought in the south and the north, and laid a large territory for the Western Qin.
Since the battle of Qingyang Mansion that year, this person has never appeared on the battlefield of Qinxia again, and now, has he finally shown his fangs to Western Xia?
Such a grand layout, more than ten years of savings, just for the present war?
Li Yuanhan was cold, and thought about it, the son of the sun in Tubo was the friend of life and death of this person, and the princess of the Tatars was his concubine......
More than ten years of time, more than ten years of conquest, is it just for today's situation?
If this is the case, what kind of terrifying and terrifying opponent this will be, thinking of this, Li Yuanhan's fear in his heart can be imagined......
After meditating for two days, the party nobleman finally picked up the pen with difficulty and wrote a letter to his uncle, in which he built a letter to his uncle for the first time, and called himself a minister to the Qin people, and used up the word kuài, and made it clear that the hesitation of the important ministers in the court would make the Western Xia fall into an extremely sinister situation, and the country of the Western Xia for nearly 200 years was likely to be destroyed because of such hesitation......
(More, more.) (To be continued.!)
