Chapter 734: A very difficult decision was made

Under the crimson palace wall, a small sedan chair stopped steadily, and there were already many officials in court clothes hiding in the corner of the door and whispering. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info all know that Qilian Mountain has won a great victory, but the exact news has not yet flowed out, several officials of the military department got off the sedan chair, and many people surrounded the past, but these people are also a hand, the good news is directly into the palace, without going through the military department, no one knows what happened.

When Yang Zhen arrived, everyone went to ask him again, and Yang Zhen smiled bitterly: "The old man just washed up early in the morning, and he heard the news, and the good news must have not passed through Menxia Province." ”

Everyone's faces couldn't help but show a little gloom, but they were all a little excited, whether it was a Han official or a Fan official, they didn't care about the previous festival for a while. Just like the Americans after the Civil War, the North and the South hated each other, and it was not until the Japanese raided Pearl Harbor that they realized that in the eyes of others, whether it was the South or the North, you were an American, so they took revenge regardless of the North and the South.

The same is true for the Han people, there were many barriers before, but now I know that once the Jurchens kill it, the Great Xia Kingdom is over, and in the eyes of the Jurchens, you are all Xia people, and you are all fat sheep who are killed quickly.

Now that the regent defeated the Jurchen Iron Cavalry in one fell swoop, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and they couldn't help but feel that they would have the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, they were all people with families and businesses, officials and identities, others could escape, where could they flee to? The grass people fled to the Great Song Dynasty, at most they were homeless, but when they went to the Great Song Dynasty, could they be willing to give up this splendid future and Wanguan family assets?

Everyone was excited, even the official who had never mentioned the regent was also talking about the benefits of the regent at this time.

"With this battle, the thirty years of Great Xia can be solid."

"Your Highness Wu Hehe, it is really not easy to win more with less."

"In my opinion, His Highness can only be compared with Emperor Yuan Hao."

"I don't know if the Emperor Taishang has received the good news, I am expected to prosper in the Great Xia."

At this time, the sedan chair that led Lu Wuthorn came over, he opened the sedan curtain, walked out slowly, and saw so many people, but he didn't feel shocked, his eyes fell on Yang Zhen not far away, Yang Zhen came over to greet him. In normal times, although the black thorn has no real power, he doesn't have to give Yang Zhen face, but today he returned the salute and said, "What rumors did you hear from Menxia Province?" ”

Yang Zhen smiled bitterly: "The old man also knew that the good news was sent directly to the palace, and I was afraid that I would only know it after entering the palace." ”

The black thorn nodded, his face was a little flushed, and he said lightly: "That's fine, I'll know when I see the Emperor Taishang later." ”

As he was talking, the palace door opened, but Huaide came out happily and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please enter the palace." ”

Everyone gathered around again and inquired: "What news does Grandpa Huaide know?" That's the news, right? Did the regent return to the court? ”

A series of questions came out, and Huaide replied happily: "That's right, it is indeed a great victory, 100,000 Jurchen iron horsemen are all finished, and all passes have been recovered, and on the side of Qilian Mountain, it is said that even the Jurchens who are grazing have retreated for fifty miles, and they dare not graze horses under my Daxia Pass." His Royal Highness the Prince Regent has sent back the news that he will return to the court in the next few days, and inform all countries and deliver good news. ”

There is an envoy here who is the Khitan, hearing the news is true, it is also a burst of ecstasy, the Jurchen population is not large, this time defeated 100,000 iron horses, the myth of the Jurchen invincibility has been broken, now the Western Xia, Khitan, and the Great Song Dynasty are united, and the Khitan temple, who said that it can't be preserved? He came out of the crowd and said, "After this battle, the people of the world are no longer afraid of the Jurchens. ”

Everyone burst into laughter, and then they entered the palace together.

On the side of the warm pavilion, Li Qianshun was surprised and delighted, the good news came early in the morning, he didn't believe it at first, and waited until he saw the good news written by Shen Ao himself, and then suppressed the suspicion in his belly.

In fact, the so-called 100,000 Jurchen Iron Horsemen have too much water, and they are full of calculations, even if they add servants, there are only 50,000 people. However, the Jurchens themselves falsely claimed 100,000 and spread propaganda to others, for fear that others would think that the Jurchens had few soldiers. Who knew that now that they were defeated, they happened to do Shen Ao a big favor, since they falsely claimed 100,000, Shen Ao naturally calculated it, so on top of this good news, he cheekily wrote more than 100,000 thieves.

Doing so, on the one hand, can appease the hearts of the people of Great Xia, and on the other hand, it also blows the arrogance of the Jurchens, so that countries are no longer afraid of the Jurchens.

Li Qianshun is also a diligent politician, which day does he not want to be a monarch who is civilized and martial? It's a pity that he has enough literary achievements, but not enough martial arts, but now this great martial arts has allowed his son-in-law to get it. But there is nothing sad about this, with this battle, the previously stupid and restless Western Xia is now truly relieved of internal troubles, and the position of the regent in the Western Xia is officially stable, just imagine, even the Jurchens are annihilated in front of the regent, who else dares to covet the authority of the regent? Dare to provoke the regent? At this time, I am afraid that those people can only be lucky, glad that they were not enemies of the regent in the past, otherwise what is the difference between their fate and the Jurchens?

When the ministers came in to say goodbye, Li Qianshun's face was a little flushed, and he was full of spirits, and asked people to read the good news carefully, and saw that everyone showed joy, and then said: "The regent has worked hard, and he will return to the court on the next day, how about I go out with everyone to welcome thirty miles?" ”

Yang Zhen took the lead and said: "Your subordinates respect the emperor's edict." ”

Everyone knelt down one after another, and all of them did not agree.

Even the black thorn only hesitated for a moment, and bowed down and said: "Your Majesty is the Emperor's edict." ”

Li Qianshun smiled faintly and said, "Okay, it's a mess, I still have to recuperate, and the rest of the people go out and go to work, Yang Zhen and Wuthorn stay." ”

At this time, Miao Er came in with Shen Xiao in her arms, and everyone saluted the princess regent and the 'emperor' together. It's a pity that this 'emperor' did not have the consciousness of being the son of heaven, and his little head kept pushing up Miao'er's chest, and when he saw that his mother didn't give him milk, he stretched out his finger and put it in his mouth, and cried loudly.

When everyone sees it, where do they dare to stay longer? They all retreated.

Miao'er first saluted Li Qianshun, her eyes fell on the black thorn, and said, "Grandpa......"

The black thorn nodded, walked over and hugged Shen Xiao, Shen Xiao was not cowardly, but when he got into the arms of the black thorn, he didn't cry anymore, he pitifully went to the black thorn's chest, and found that this chest was different from the structure of Miao'er and the nurse, a pair of dark eyes showed a look of doubt, and then he cried again, and kicked his feet around.

The black thorn looked at him with deep eyes, and said word by word: "This son is the true son of heaven!" ”

Not long ago, the high-spirited Jurchens broke through the pass, killing more than 1,000 defenders, using this pass as a breakthrough point to pocket the entire northern border town in one fell swoop. After that, the Jurchens were defeated, Shen Ao led the army to occupy this place to rest, and now everywhere is the border plug, everywhere are Jurchens trying to escape, and there are also chasing soldiers everywhere, it only took two days to recover, all the passes were recovered, and even the cavalry rushed into the desert, robbed many Jurchen herdsmen, and intercepted hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep.

The water and herbs near Qilian Mountain are abundant, the Jurchens have always lived by plundering, and never thought that anyone would dare to eat black, and 30,000 iron horsemen entered the southern foot of Qilian Mountain, so the Jurchen herdsmen here have gradually increased, in their opinion, not long after, even if they can't enter Xingqing Mansion, at least in the southern foot of Qilian Mountain, horse grazing is a sure thing, and the water and grass at the southern foot of the southern foot are more abundant, which has long been coveted by the Jurchen herdsmen. Who knew that the news of the rout came out, and before they could react, countless Western Xia cavalry rushed out, killing people when they saw them, burning tents when they saw them, and the cattle, sheep and horses were not polite, and rushed back to Guanzhong directly.

One cavalry, even hundreds of miles deep into the desert, smashed a herdsman's stronghold and captured thousands of Jurchens back.

The grassland near the border of Western Xia, for a while, there was a lot of rumors, everywhere was the news of being looted, the herdsmen who were lucky not to encounter the Xia army immediately moved north, and there were also a lot of Jin cavalry who heard the wind and moved, but the Jurchens have always been good at attacking but not good at defending, all the military strength is on the Qijin Mansion and the Khitans, and in the face of this team of thousands of cavalry in the face of internal emptiness, with dozens and hundreds of people spontaneously formed, only one charge can make them disperse.

After all, those who stayed here were not the elite of the Jurchens, most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, with few people and low morale, where were these cavalry opponents whose morale was like a rainbow and overwhelming?

In Qilian Guanli, Shen Aomao focused on the map, patrolling in the map, the Jurchen invasion, although it is now victorious, but the price is not small, the war produced a large number of displaced people, the border army was also slumped, and the nearby cities, the loss was not small. He has always taken advantage of others, but now that he has suffered the loss of these Jurchens, he naturally wants them to pay back tenfold and hundredfold.

This account, not clear how to do? The Jurchens can rob the Khitans, of course Shen Ao can also rob the Jurchens, and Shen Ao is the best at this kind of thing.

When it comes to the great cause of robbery, Shen Ao is more concerned than ever, hundreds of scouts are released, the terrain of the western grassland of the Jurchens has been figured out, and the most important question now is where to start.

On this thousand miles of grassland, there are no people, there are only two places that can really be grabbed, one is closer to Qijin Mansion, there is the ancestral land of Khitan, called Licheng, it is one of the few cities in the west of the desert, it is said to be a city, in fact, there is no majestic city wall and turbulent moat, more like a large-scale gathering point, a prince of the Jurchens was divided here, this prince is the uncle of Wanyan Aguta, the status is transcendent, so there are many treasures rewarded, cattle and sheep are also everywhere, There are as many as 10,000 herdsmen scattered in the vicinity, not to mention cattle and sheep, there must be hundreds of thousands.

It's just that this place is 600 miles away from Qilianguan, and once it goes deeper, the danger factor is still quite high.

The other city is in the northern part of the desert, where it is an important trade route for the Jurchens to the west, and it is a place where merchants gather, and it is said that every few days, hundreds of merchants with herds of cattle and sheep and thousands of porters and guards stop there, and it is also a good place for rich and oily; It is only more than 300 miles away from Qilianguan.

Shen Ao's eyes looked at the map as if he had seen mountains of gold and silver, his Adam's apple kept rolling, and he couldn't help dripping a few drops of saliva from his mouth, and wiped it fiercely, if it is about wealth, it is naturally more away from the city, the Khitan people have robbed the Great Song Dynasty for so many years, and there are naturally a lot of good things, and the Jurchens have robbed the Khitans in the dark, and they have long been rich. There is a lack of everything in this desert, that is, there is no shortage of gold, silver and jewelry, Shen Ao is the opposite of them, he lacks nothing, that is, he lacks money.

Shen Ao clenched his fists fiercely and slammed his head on the table.

The nearby generals couldn't help but stop what they were doing when they heard the sound of banging on the table, and looked at the regent.

Shen Ao took a deep breath and said, "This king has made a difficult decision. ”

"Is Your Highness planning to release the captured captives?" A general saw the difficulty on Shen Ao's face, and began to speculate, what was the most difficult thing for the regent? On a little thought, it's mostly a captive business; In addition to the captured Jurchen cavalry, there were also a large number of herdsmen, the number of which was as high as 20,000, and it was of course very difficult for so many people to be released.

Shen Ao shook his head, indicating that he had guessed wrong, and then pointed his finger to a location on the map, and said in a painful tone: "Send troops out of the city and rob his mother!" ”
