"Lord Wang, let the last general bring people to reinforce Mengzhou, otherwise the 20,000 'loyal and righteous army' of General Yirapu alone may not be able to hold it——"

Kangcheng, Zhao Wangfu.

Monk Wanyan Chen hurried from the barracks, and before his ass could sit firmly, he made a request to Wanyan Kang.

The strength of the Mongolian Iron Cavalry, how many years have they been dealing with each other, they naturally know it, not to mention, this time they are facing a combination of Timuge and Borshu?

Although these two are a few years old, they are all the generals who could be counted under Genghis Khan Temujin's account back then, especially Borshu is a super-first-class commander.

"General Wanyan, do you think we can beat the Mongol army?"

Wan Yan Kang didn't answer immediately, but asked a question that Monk Wan Yan Chen didn't expect at all.

"Lord Wang, the Great War has broken out, why would you ask such a question?"

"Our army has a total of more than 60,000 people, while the Mongolian army only has more than 40,000 people, even if they can't defeat them, the 'loyal and filial army' of the last general will never be afraid of them."

Wan Yankang's army has a total number of more than 60,000, and even so, it makes him feel a lot of pressure to raise troops.

Western Xia has always been barren, not to mention how much territory he occupies after Yan Kang?

It's not an important city, otherwise, what would he have spent time and effort building in Cannes?

Among the 60,000 people, there are more than 30,000 people in the "Loyal and Brave Army" directly under Wanyan Kang, 20,000 in the "Loyal and Righteous Army" in Yirapua, and only about 8,000 people in the "Loyal and Filial Piety Army" under the monk Wanyan Chen.

But if you really talk about combat strength, there is no doubt that the 8,000-strong "loyal and filial piety army" of monk Wanyan Chen is the strongest among them, not only because of the commander's own bravery, but also because the "loyal and filial piety army" is a pure heavy armored cavalry.

The materials consumed to raise such an army are not even inferior to Wan Yankang's more than 30,000 "loyal and brave soldiers", but Wan Yankang is still gritting his teeth and supplying, which is his last confidence.

"General Wanyan, there are more than 40,000 Mongolian troops, but now only 20,000 people led by Timur are showing up, so where is Borshu?"

"The news from our Pingzhou Xizuo was four days ago, and Borshu also left with Brother Timu, and it has been three or four days, but there is no news of Borshu."

"Xiao Wang thinks that those scouts sent out are probably all damaged."

"Either where Borshu is hiding, planning to deal a fatal blow to the Yirapu Abe in Mengzhou City at the right time, or he is besieging the city to send reinforcements, waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net."

As far as the guest officer is concerned, there is no problem at all with Yan Kang's analysis, and in fact, Timuge and Borshu almost planned to do so.

It's a pity, unless Wan Yankang wants to give up Mengzhou City, or if the Yila Pua in Mengzhou City can withstand Timurge's attack by himself, otherwise, it should be the right thing to go to the rescue.

"Lord Wang, can we ask the 'Dunwu Army' in Yinzhou City to help, they still have 50,000 soldiers and horses, even if there are 20,000 people stationed in Taiyuan City."

"Dispatch 20,000 'Dunwu Army' to help, and the last general will have the confidence to fight this group of Mongols to the end."

An idea suddenly popped up for Monk Wanyan Chen, and when he finished speaking, he felt that this proposal didn't seem to work very well.

"General Wanyan, why does the 'Dunwu Army' of the Great Song Dynasty want to help us? They are about to march into Bianliang, and we have all seen two waves of messengers from Bianliang City asking for help. ”

"In this respect, we are still hostile to each other with the 'Dunwu Army', but our strength is limited, and we really can't care about Bianliang's life or death."

"Ask the Great Song Dynasty for 20,000 'Dunwu Army' to send troops to rescue, so, what do we pay back? City? Grain and grass? Silver? Or soldiers? ”

"If Xiao Wang is the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, he will sit back and watch us fight with the Mongols, defeat both sides, and then directly wave the army over and take the entire eastern and northern regions of Western Xia."

Monk Chen was completely speechless.

Yes, what Wanyan Kang just said, as a leading general, how could Wanyan Chen not understand?

Could it be that Mengzhou City is really not saved?

Is it just for General Shiftapu to die in battle?

"In this way, General Wanyan, you send more scouts to pay close attention to the movements in Mengzhou City, and continue to explore the location of Borshu."

"The 'Loyal and Filial Army' is a heavy cavalry, and it is inconvenient to move, you choose 10,000 people from Xiao Wang's 'Loyal and Brave Army' to take it, once the city of Mengzhou is breached, you must take General Yirapua out."

"Xiao Wang personally wrote a battle report and told the prince of the Great Song Dynasty in Luoyang City in detail about the situation here, so as an 'old friend'......"

Wan Yankang didn't understand why he did this?

There was no call for help, just a plain account of what happened on the battlefield, or, really, as he said, this is an ordinary war report.

Monk Wanyan Chen glanced at Wanyan Kang in surprise, and it was rare that this upright man in the army did not even dissuade or ask his own prince about his intentions to do so.

......

"King Xia, how are you thinking about it?"

Zhongxing Mansion, inside the door of a mansion, the two sat and drank opposite each other.

The one who bowed his head and was silent was none other than Li Li, who had been removed from the throne of the Great Xia Emperor in public.

Although Li Wei lost the position of Emperor of Great Xia, no one embarrassed him, whether it was the "vulture" Wei Chixuan or the subjects of Western Xia.

It is even said that Li Li still retains his original property and guards.

Even the "Yipintang" forces that he could mobilize when he was the emperor, as long as the other party was willing to follow, were still following Li Li's left and right.

"Should I call you Murong Gongzi? Or Ouyang Gongzi? ”

Li Xiao lowered his head and thought for a long time, then raised his head to look at the person sitting opposite.

"Hahaha, King Xia, I didn't expect you to fall into such a world, and you still care about the surname of my son?"

"Whether it's Murong or Ouyang, it's just a surname, if you can let this son be the lord of Great Xia, even if you let this son change his surname to Li, it can be considered."

It turned out that the person in front of him was Ouyang Ke, who killed the previous Xia King Li Dewang and went to the ancient tomb to injure Grandma Sun.

It's also funny, since this Ouyang Ke was empowered by the old master of Murong and forcibly raised his realm to the top master, his situation seems to be getting worse and worse.

He hid all day long, and he didn't dare to show up like he used to fly, and he always felt as if there was a pair of eyes staring at him.

"King Xia is the King of Xia of the party, not his Li Dewang's, even his father was usurped back then, the so-called winner is the king, and the loser is the villain."

"You are an authentic party member, and you are a relative of the Li family, and you have the support of all the ministers to become the king of Xia, are you willing to let this great Xia fall into the hands of a girl?"

Ouyang Ke took a sip of wine, or this "hero drunk" tastes good!

Guo Mo, this kid, how can he always toss good things? It's just that the price is a little more expensive.

"Hey, what's the use of talking about that now? When Wei Chixuan read the edict, if Gongzi could be on the spot, he could also be killed in the name of the rebellious ministers and thieves, but the matter is ...... now."

Li Li also poured a big sip of "hero drunk".

Hero drunk,

If you are not a hero, why are you drunk?

If you're a hero, what's the point of getting drunk?

"King Xia, what you are worried about is nothing more than that female emperor, what if she is gone? There are still tens of thousands of warriors in Great Xia, and in this intricate territory of Great Xia, it is not impossible to dominate one side. ”

"My son has dealt with the Mongols many times, and he has a good relationship with Wanyan Kang, who is entrenched in Kangcheng, and it is not impossible to persuade these two places to work with King Xia to deal with the 'Dunwu Army' of the Great Song Dynasty."

"What? You're going to get rid of the empress? ”

Li Li didn't care about what Ouyang Ke said later, he had also been the lord of the country for a few days, and he was even pulled down from that supreme position.

Many of the courtiers who pulled him down from his high position were also the same people who supported him at the beginning, so Li Li would not believe that someone would support him for no reason.

And Ouyang Ke's current proposal made Li Li think of the poisoned former Xia King Li Dewang.

"Hmph, a mere female streamer, isn't it easy for my son to kill her? What's more, she is still Guo Mo's woman, haha, this son just tasted and evaluated for her first. ”

Ouyang Ke said, with a hint of lewdness in his eyes.

......

After Timuge's army withdrew from Guazhou and Shazhou one after another, the Meng Communist Party each divided 5,000 "Dunwu Army" and stationed them in these two Western Xia cities in the west.

The takeover of these two cities by the "Dunwu Army" seemed so natural that no one even the generals of Western Xia raised objections.

Perhaps no one can look down on these two border cities, which have almost been turned into military forts during the Mongol occupation, and it is difficult to see any traces of the common people.

When Timur retreated, he didn't leave anything of value behind, except for those houses that couldn't be taken away, almost everything that could be taken away was taken away.

However, for the Meng Communists, these two cities are at least stronger than the military camps.

Without popularity, it is not terrible, and the Bangladesh Communist Party directly moved the venue of "trade exchange" to Guazhou and Shazhou City.

In order to quickly gather the popularity of Guazhou and Shazhou, the "Song Bai" sold here is directly sold to the ultra-low price of three taels of silver and one jar.

However, there is a clear restriction when purchasing, and it must stay in the local area for more than three days before it can be purchased, and each person must not buy more than five jars at a time, and it is best to exchange more than half of them for goods other than gold and silver.

This is also Guo Mo's idea to Meng Gong, businessmen seek profits, not to mention that the current Guazhou and Shazhou are already under the control of the "Dunwu Army" of the Great Song Dynasty, even if there is a certain risk, as long as there are enough benefits, there will be many people who are willing to take risks.

With enough space, it is natural to be able to store more goods.

In addition to their own use or transportation to the hinterland of the Central Plains, some of the materials that the Meng Communist Party exchanged for "Song Bai" were also digested on the spot and traded with other merchants.

Guazhou and Shazhou also encourage other merchants to trade on their own, and when they encounter blackmail and bullying, as long as they report to the "Dunwu Army", these sons and daughters of the Great Song Dynasty will teach them to be new people in minutes!

Slowly, after more than half a year, Guazhou and Shazhou have become two large trading markets, which still do not charge fees and have "Dunwu Army" to maintain law and order.

Gradually, even in the western Liao Kingdom, many merchants or civilians came here, and some even bought shops or houses in the city.

Anyway, there are empty places and houses, and in their spare time, the Meng Communist Party asked the brothers of the "Dunwu Army" to repair a lot of houses, and just selling these made a lot of money.

Of course, this is also one of Guo Mo's suggestions to him, but he didn't tell him the concept of "real estate economy".

"The mission of Western Xia in the end of the future is basically completed, and now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is starting the battle to destroy Jin, and the Mongols in the east and Wanyankang are also fighting, and the last general will go back to Yinzhou first."

"The 'Tiger Army' led by Zhao Dutong will continue to stay here to guard Zhaoxun, Guazhou and Shazhou each have 5,000 'Dunwu Army' stationed, and there should be no large-scale enemy attack, which should be enough."

"The last general will leave another 10,000 'Dunwu Army', and let General Feng Ge take command, taking into account the safety of the Western Xia Prefectures, and with Chen Dutong and Hao Daochang here, the land of these five states can be regarded as impregnable."

After Guo Mo was named the crown prince, Huang Rong was naturally the crown princess, while Li Mochou and the Western Xia Empress were named "Fengyi" and "Zhaoxun" respectively.

In order to guard against the possible Ouyang Ke, not only did the "Marshal's Mansion" in Luoyang City make arrangements, select and cultivate two hundred "brocade clothes", and even the empress who was far away in Western Xia, Guo Mo did not fall.

Not only did the "Tiger Army" led by Zhao Chengyu, Guo Mo even let the "bronze corpse" Chen Xuanfeng and Hao Datong rush over.

However, these two are in a state of covert protection and do not show up in the open.

And the "vulture" Wei Chi Xuan, after passing on the will of the Emperor Taishang, directly stayed by the empress's side and acted as the commander of the inner guards, which was Murong Qiudi's meaning.

The Emperor Taishang is already declining, and he is staying in Lin'an City, how can he need so many guards? And the Empress of Western Xia has become the person she is most at ease with.

In addition, the second junior brother "opened the tablet" Red, and the "Yipintang" who came back with Wei Chi Nan and Wei Chi Bei, there are also more than 30 people.

These people live completely in the empress's mansion and guard the empress's safety at all times.

With Li Dewang's previous experience, "Condor" Wei Chixuan did not dare to be careless, after all, Li Dewang has been dead for so long, and he still hasn't figured out who committed the poison.

Meng Gong led 10,000 "Dunwu Army" to leave, and with his vision, of course, he could see that the dispute between the Mongols and Wanyankang should have an opportunity that he could take advantage of.

Therefore, at this time, he could no longer stay in Xitui in Western Xia, but had to return to Yinzhou City.

......

"General Cui, our people have already crossed the river, except for the sailors, all the sergeants in the water village have gone to the Yellow River to feed the fish-"

Cui Li's people have completely occupied the water village.

Cui Li himself even killed the captain of the Shuizhai who warmly welcomed him, and he also imitated Cao Mengde when he was about to "borrow your head for use".

"Hurry up and let people prepare to eat and drink, we have to rush in unexpectedly before the gate of Bianliang City closes, as long as we can occupy a city gate, it will be a great achievement."

From this water village, to the location of the north gate of Bianliang, it is more than 20 miles, and it is just past noon, and there is still time in time.

Cui Li didn't get dazed, he knew that with his fifteen thousand people, it was unrealistic to take Bianliang City completely.

However, the north gate of Bianliang City is not heavily defended, and Cui Li is confident that he can still do it if he takes the north gate and waits for help.

An hour later, the army was full of war meals, and when he was about to set off, Cui Li felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Father, what's wrong with you?"

This is Cui Li's son Cui Mian, who is just twenty years old this year, but he is a general with both civil and military skills, and he is a captain under Cui Li's account.

Cui Mian is also Cui Li's only son, and he is regarded as a treasure on weekdays, if he didn't plan to give up Acropolis City, Cui Li would not have brought his son to the battlefield together.

"It's Mian'er, just now I thought for my father, the location of this water village is very important, and there are more than fifty warships, this is a lot of wealth, if it is dedicated to the prince of the Great Song Dynasty in the future, it will be regarded as a great achievement."

"Therefore, my father wants Mian'er to lead a thousand soldiers to guard this water village, and after the defeat of the Jin Kingdom, my father will naturally have people summon you."

"Father, this-"

Cui Mian was a little anxious when he heard this, who among young people doesn't want to make contributions?

Cui Mian is different from his father, this young man is a young man who reads first and then enters the army.

I always feel that I am a Han person, and I have always felt awkward in my heart as a general under the rule of the Jurchens.

This time, as soon as his father mentioned attacking Bianliang City as an audience gift for surrendering the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, Cui Mian was the first to raise his hands in favor.

I have been looking forward to the scene of myself leading the army into Bianliang City, but I didn't expect that this was all over the battle, but my father wanted to lead his team to stay and guard the water village?

It's a pity that Cui Mian knows very well in his heart, don't look at this dad who spoils himself very much on weekdays, but when he arrives in the barracks, he is very strict in military law.

The so-called, father and son at home, and generals in the army.

Cui Mian and his 1,000 men and horses were still left in Shuizhai, along with a lot of materials that Cui Li's army was inconvenient to carry.

It's just more than 20 miles away, and you don't need to bring grain, grass, tents, or anything at all.

If you win, you will naturally be able to enter Bianliang City, defeat it, and at most retreat to Shuizhai.

On the contrary, he brought enough bows and arrows, and water warfare has always been based on bows and arrows, and in this water village, a large number of arrows are actually stored, and Cui Li will naturally not be polite.

Looking at the shadow of his father's departure, Cui Mian's heart was full of depression.

But how did he know that it was precisely because he was asked to guard the water village that he escaped, otherwise they would probably have all been handed over to Bianliang City.

......

Luoyang City, Marshal's Mansion.

"Daddy, I'm going to eat that—"

Today is May 27th, and it is rare for Guo Mo to be in a good mood and set up two tables of banquets in the lobby of the "Red Rain Pavilion".

After a year, it is no longer the day of famine like last year, so the banquet is also very rich.

The smart Huang Rong knew that Guo Mo couldn't be so extravagant for no reason.

It's not that he can't spend those few taels of silver, but because Guo Mo doesn't like the crowded environment from his bones, especially after he became His Royal Highness the Prince.

The crowd was originally lively, but because of his status as His Royal Highness the Prince, it seemed a lot awkward.

Everyone else is fine, but Xiao Guo Xiang doesn't care about this, he has been sitting next to his father from the beginning, and if he can't reach his own but loves to eat, he keeps commanding Guo Mo, asking for this and that.

"Hey, how did I forget about that? Go back and ask Senior Brother Feng to make a dining table and send it over, with a turntable in the middle, if you can't reach it, you can turn it over directly. ”

After living in this era for a long time, he slowly got used to being ruthless, but as soon as he was free, Guo Mo would unconsciously think of a lot of "before" things.

"Brother Mo, do you have something to say?"

Huang Rong stopped Xiao Guo Xiang, who continued to go crazy, and arranged her to go next to Xiaolongnu.

Huang Rong also wondered, Xiao Guo Xiang has been following Xiaolongnu for more than a year, why hasn't he learned a little bit of "ladylike" anger from others?

The two of them unexpectedly became good friends, very good kinds, sometimes Xiao Xiang'er went to Xiaolongnu's room to sleep at night.

"Hehe, it's not a big deal, let's eat first, I'll go to the table of the two gentlemen to toast——"

Guo Mo set up a banquet, and his family sat around a table, so naturally he couldn't leave behind a few errand boys in the house.

The crown prince Zhao Rushu, the prince Taibao Cheng Jue, Lu Guanying, Li Zhichang, etc., as well as the two newly promoted to the third-rate realm in the "brocade clothes", and the two captains with troops in the official "Tiger Ben Army".

On the first day of screening candidates, Guo Mo said frankly that the two of them might be promoted to the third-rate realm within three months, but he didn't expect it to be realized.

It turned out that after training for a month in these "brocade clothes", Guo Mo generously sacrificed the "Easy Muscle Forging Bone Chapter".

This article in the "Nine Yin True Scripture" is just applicable to these people, although it can't really be like the name, it can do "easy muscles and bones", but it can really improve people's martial arts potential.

It's just that the process is a bit too painful, especially for those who have already grown their muscles and bones.

For seven days, the east courtyard of the "Marshal's Mansion" was like a ghost crying wolf, and that miserable cry made Wu Nantian feel a little lucky to be able to meet Guo Mo at a young age.

After "easy muscles and bones", the efficiency of re-practice is obviously much higher, and these two captains with troops have also taken the lead in becoming good players in the third-rate realm.

"Wang Luo, Ma Yang, since the two of you are the first to be promoted to the third-rate realm, then return to the leading position, from today onwards Wang Luo is the senior brother of the two hundred 'brocade clothes', and Ma Yang is the second senior brother."

"It's just a third-rate realm, far from the time to be complacent, I hope you will practice harder in the future, and also set a good example for your junior disciples."

From that day on, Wang Luo and Ma Yang had a chair to sit on with Guo Mo, and they also helped Lu Guanying and them manage the others.

"Your Highness, you don't want to go to Bianliang City in person, do you? ——”

Seeing Guo Mo coming over to toast, everyone at this table stood up one after another.

Taking the opportunity of drinking, Lao Cheng Jue quietly asked Guo Mo.

It's a pity that his so-called "quietly", in front of first-class masters like Huang Rong and Li Mochou, is no different from shouting at the top of his voice.

"What? Brother Mo, are you going to the battlefield? ”

Huang Rong couldn't hold her breath for the first time, and asked loudly between the two tables.

The words also came out, and Huang Rong felt that it seemed a little inappropriate to be like this in public.

"Rong'er, military affairs, it's better not to get involved, Mo'er has her own measure. Besides, with Mol'er's skills, the world is so big, where can't he go? ”

Feng Heng, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly said.

Guo Mo and Huang Rong are their own children in Feng Heng's eyes, and they have also watched the two of them come all the way for so many years, and they understand the feelings of these two people very well.

However, with the change of Guo Mo's identity again and again, especially after becoming His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Feng Heng has persuaded Huang Rong several times to somewhat restrain her temperament.

It's a pity that Huang Rong still goes her own way, and Guo Mo doesn't care about this.

However, today there are Zhao Rushu and Lao Cheng Jue, and there are people in the "brocade clothes", Feng Heng is still worried that Huang Rong will say something inappropriate, so he spoke out to stop it.

"Haha, mother-in-law, Rong'er, everyone. Since everyone has asked about this, I might as well tell you the truth, I do plan to go to Bianliang City. ”

"Bianliang used to be the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, and even now, in the hearts of many Great Song people, it is still the capital of the Great Song Dynasty."

"The king set the Central Plains Day in the north, and the family sacrifice did not forget to tell Na Weng. Lu Fangweng was thinking about something when he was dying, and now that it is about to come true, how can you let me sit in Luoyang City? ”

"In this battle against Dajin, the battle of Bianliang is the top priority, but there is no difficulty at all. When I get there, it's just more symbolic, and I won't really go into battle to kill the enemy. ”

"There are 50,000 'Yuejia Army' here, can't they still take the more than 30,000 Jin Guo stragglers who lack food and clothing?"

Guo Mo's arrogance in speaking suddenly infected the people in the lobby.

"Brother Mo, I believe in you, but it's a pity that I can't go with you, the children are still young......"

Huang Rong really can't leave, her mother is here, there is a six-year-old Guo Xiang, and there is a "Lei Zhenzi" who is less than a year old.

And Li Mochou has just come out of the full moon, and his body has not fully recovered.

There are a lot of things in the back house, and they can't all be put on Jin Yufeng alone, right?

"Haha, Rong'er will take care of the children at home, and when we take the capital next time, let's go together-"

These words made everyone in the room boil for a while, but no one felt how difficult it was.

Bianliang City, it is about to be taken, the middle capital city, is it still far away?

......

"General Cui, something seems to be wrong ahead......

Cui Li's army marched slowly, and as far as he knew, there was a small military fort between the water village and the north gate of Bianliang City.

The small military fort was probably less than ten miles south of the water village.

However, after walking more than ten miles, no military fort was found.

"The whole army stopped, and sent all the scouts to Lao Tzu—"

Sail carefully for ten thousand years, Cui Li has been in the army for so many years, and he can live to this day, he has neither outstanding martial arts nor outstanding wisdom, relying on this extraordinary prudence.

Twenty scouts were sent out.

A quarter of an hour passed, and no one came back to report the news.

Another quarter of an hour passed, and the surroundings seemed quieter.

In Cui Li's heart, the inexplicable heart season came to ..... again.
