All the sergeants were stopped by the shouts, and they all retreated, bowed and said, "Young General! "

The man came forward to understand why they were arguing? The military report was given to him, and the man's young face was immediately filled with reverence, and he stepped forward and bowed and said, "But General Xiao Ming, who conquered the Western Xia Kingdom and the Gaochang Uighurs?" "

Xiao Ming nodded and said, "That's right, it's just a few districts, dare to ask what you call it?" "

"In the next plant, my uncle is among the planters!"

"What is that kind of general?"

"It's the father"

"It turned out to be a major general! It's Xiao who is reckless, please forgive me! ”

"Where did General Xiao speak, your record shocked the ancients, the battle of the Western Regions was widely spread, and General Xiao's martial arts were all legendary, and I heard that the general was a member of my Great Song Dynasty, wouldn't that establish immortal feats for my Han people?" ”

"Huh!" Xiao Ming smiled: "The young general has an overreputation!" I don't know if the general of the seed division is available, Xiao Ming has something important to look for him"

Chonghe said: "Uncle is looking at the map in the gallery room, so I will report on my behalf, General Xiao, please!" ”

Xiao Ming's meeting with the breeder and the breeder completely revolved around the death of Yang Zhen, Yang Zhen was a tiger general, and he was very admired by the breeder, but Yang Zhen was earnest, and did not listen to the advice of the old man to save and not to underestimate the enemy's rashness, and the entire Hexi region occupied by Western Xia should be delayed, and finally killed.

Yang Zhen is a colleague in the seed division, not a superior or superior, and this position in the seed division was originally Yang Zhen's after he returned to Beijing, but Yang Zhen only achieved the control of the infantry army, so he led the troops to Ganzhou alone, and was finally killed there.

Xiao Ming noticed that he was checking the topographic map of the situation in Jingxi and Jingdong, and he thought that he was paying attention to the matter of the Jin soldiers attacking the Song Dynasty.

"The Jin soldiers have slipped to the state, and the Beijing division is in danger, doesn't the general think of the king of Bingqin?" Xiao Ming asked.

The seed master said: "My Great Song Dynasty has a strict military system, and there is no talisman for transferring troops, and it is a big crime to punish the nine clans by transferring troops privately!" Although I have the heart to lead the troops to save the danger of the Beijing Division, but without the Privy Council, the elite of our Western Army does not dare to move at all! ”

Xiao Ming said: "The last Western Xia turmoil, General Yang Zhen was killed, and Li Cunzhong's army was in turmoil, and the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty moved westward from Yongxing Military Road, I don't think it was an order from the Privy Council, right?" ”

The seed master was silent, that time he transferred troops to the west he was ordered by his brother to plant the master Dao, there are a lot of cats in it, Tong Guan is still in command of the Western Army, and he is a privy envoy, he in order to deprive the remaining influence, try his best to win over the generals of the Western Army, the seed master Dao is from the Qing Gao, he does not want to be with Tong Guan, but Tong Guan gives him the right to make a temporary decision, but he can't help but have some thoughts.

The last time the Western Army was mobilized, Yang Zhen was equivalent to losing the sphere of influence of the Great Song Dynasty in Ganzhou, and the Seed Master Dao transferred troops to the west, also to grab territory, after Xiao Ming led the Golden Army to quell the rebellion, it was equivalent to the entire region in a power vacuum, and the Seed Master Dao had been operating in the northwest for many years, so he naturally would not give up this opportunity.

The combat power of the Golden Legion is really amazing, and the Seed Master Dao is really a little suspicious of Xiao Ming, and sending his younger brother to train heavy troops in the west is also a precaution, which Xiao Ming knows very well, he has never sent troops to guard the area bordering the Great Song Dynasty, and he has also let their behavior of grabbing territory go unchecked, just don't want to have any friction with the Great Song Dynasty.

After the Golden Legion marched west again, the seed master Dao withdrew the soldiers and horses, but still left 50,000 soldiers to the seed division, the meaning of which is self-evident, the seed division did not want to lead the troops eastward, but a Privy Council did not order, and his eldest brother did not let him move, and the seed master was also in a dilemma.

Xiao Ming said: "Your brother General Dao is currently entangled with the Jin soldiers in Taiyuan, and he can't distinguish the soldiers and horses to rescue the danger of Tokyo, that Tong Guan is an incompetent person, and the soldiers on the east and west roads of Beijing and Hebei are defeated like a mountain!" His subordinates Liu Yanqing and Tan Shen actually burned the camp to the south, and half of the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty were already exhausted! The general does not take advantage of this time to send troops, save the general of the building, save the society in danger, and wait for when"

The planter shook his head and said, "It's a big deal, forgive me for not being able to obey my fate!" ”

Xiao Ming said angrily: "When the country is in danger, you are still worried about your own net worth and life, it seems that it is too wasteful for you to be the commander of this Qin Fengjun!" Why don't you lend me the military power," After speaking, he was ready to make a move with Wu Song behind him.

The seed master was stunned and said: "Everyone says that you King Xiao is a generation of heroes, and if you don't agree with each other, you will seize the military power?" But even if I give you the military power, the Great Song Dynasty military system, the generals don't know the soldiers, the soldiers don't know the generals, there are no civil officials who command the envoys, and the middle and lower officers below won't listen to you."

What the seed master said is reasonable, Xiao Ming knew that this was the consequence of the Great Song Dynasty's use of literature and military power, and only officers above the capital level in the Song army could serve as part of the civilian officials, and this civilian official only belonged to the local government and not to the central government, and had no status.

It seems that even if he robbed the official seal in the hands of the seed master, it would be useless to seize his power! Xiao Ming thought about it and didn't know what to do, and the kind of person on the side hurriedly said: "Uncle! General Xiao is also patriotic, please don't be surprised! ”

The planter said: "I don't know that the entire Xixia Kingdom earned by King Xiao is not only not the border trouble of my Great Song Dynasty, but has become the backing of my Great Song Dynasty, and its merit is in the Qianqiu, King Xiao can provide us with some grain and grass, which is already supporting my Great Song Dynasty's anti-gold event!" ”

Xiao Ming was irritable, got up to say goodbye, he told the planter Zhongdao: "Xixia has abundant grain and grass, but it is not provided for the army besieging and besieging me, when the general raises the army to the east, I will support you with 100,000 quintals of grain and grass!" ”

Chonghe asked, "Why did General Xiao come to borrow the Western Army?" Your Golden Legion is invincible, and you can be the king of soldiers, how can you take a fancy to your uncle's tens of thousands of horses? ”

Xiao Minglang laughed loudly: "One million lands in Xixia and Western Prefecture, my only 30,000 golden army, just the army of shock, all of them have been transferred eastward, and there is chaos there, who will I take to suppress it?" ”

The planter said: "I can send troops to you, but can I give me the land of Ganzhou?" ”

Xiao Ming glanced at him and said, "Yes, you can send troops to Xizhou to take over the whole thing, but you don't have an order from the Privy Council, do you dare to go?" ”

Chonghe said: "Ziyou doesn't quite understand, General Xiao, if you lead the troops, how many people do you need to solve the crisis in Bianjing?" ”

Xiao Ming said: "You don't need many people, 30,000 is enough!" ”

The seed master said to the seed master: "Ziyou, for your uncle's physical discomfort, you have the right to supervise the army, and you are also an envoy, and you have the right to decide on all plans, do you understand?" ”

Chonghe said: "Uncle recuperation is important, of course you can't bother, little nephew understands!" ”

Xiao Ming was stunned and watched the uncle and nephew play double reeds, and said very puzzled: "You guys, what does this mean?" ”

The planter said: "I have 50,000 troops in my hands, and I am not in the Western Army, I can allocate 30,000 horses to you, in the name of helping to prevent and suppress bandits at your request, and the condition is 100,000 loads of grain and grass, what do you think?" ”

Xiao Ming pondered, the 30,000 army is just a full number, the dead horse is used as a live horse doctor, and he also needs a large number of weapons and armor to arm, these soldiers of the Western Army are not well trained, but they are all crossbow soldiers, and they are all crossbow soldiers, and they accept it, and then like other methods, so they nodded and agreed.

"Thank you so much, General!"

The planter shook his head and said: "I only hope that the imperial court will quickly send troops to transfer troops, and asking you for food and grass is also to prepare early, even if you are the vanguard of my western army!" ”

Xiao Ming thanked him, claiming that the grain and grass would be sent immediately, and he could take people to the east now, and the seed master finally sent the seed to Xiao Ming as a proof of command of the army. Xiao Ming thanked him again, and left with the seed combination.

Xiao Ming led people back to the station, and asked Chonghe to go to order troops, and he was going to set off on the second day.

Chonghe said: "The 30,000 army is under my command, but the number is limited, will the general recruit any more troops and horses?" ”

Xiao Ming said: "Do you have any suggestions?" ”

"The Hezhong Mansion has promoted Yao Pingzhong, and there are still 18,000 Xiangyong in his hands, the general can go and persuade this person, so that we will have more people!"

Xiao Ming asked, "Who is Yao Pingzhong, why have you never heard of it?" ”

Chonghe said: "Yao Pingzhong is a wealthy family in Hezhong Mansion, with tens of thousands of acres of land, but this person is a military family, his grandfather was the commander of the Yongxing Army and the Horse Army, he himself was born in Wuju, and now he is the promotion of Hezhong Mansion, this ten thousand eight Xiangyong are his own Zhuanghu children, we can go to persuade him, let him Qinwang is!" ”

Xiao Ming nodded in agreement, but I don't know if anyone recognizes himself as the king of the five lands in the Great Song Dynasty, he can call for wind and rain in the Western Regions, and the bureaucracy in the Great Song Dynasty is mature, it is estimated that they will always think that they will always think that they are reckless, and it seems that they must make reasonable use of the resources in their hands.

Xiao Ming made a contract with the seed that he would go to Hezhong Mansion first, and then he would lead 30,000 soldiers, and then he would go to count the soldiers and horses, and Xiao Ming immediately packed up and went to Hezhong Mansion.

Everyone came to Hezhong Mansion and did not go to visit Yao Pingzhong, first, they had to wait for the arrival of Chonghe, such an excuse was better, and second, Xiao Ming found that Hezhong Mansion did not seem to be peaceful at present, and there were a large number of people in the city who appeared in the city, and many men were carrying weapons, some with black faces and some with white faces. Tattoos and tattoos abound. It seems to be here for some kind of party.

Xiao Ming sent people to inquire and found out that these people from the rivers and lakes were here to participate in the Northwest Anti-Jin Volunteer Conference, and it was Yao Pingzhong who held this conference. It shows that this person must have practiced kung fu such as the golden bell jar iron cloth shirt.

In the name of the rivers and lakes this time, he held the Northwest Anti-Jin Volunteer Conference in order to expand his strength, but the time was too hasty, and only the men and some gangs in the northwest and Hejian and other places participated, but the appeal of this person was not small.

Since it is to resist Jin Yiyong, it is to resist the Jin soldiers, now the Jin soldiers are attacking the Song Dynasty on both roads, and the East Route Army has been in the city of Tokyo, this kind of war report news is naturally passed everywhere, and the Yongxing Road Army's seed master road is fighting fiercely with the Jin soldiers in Taiyuan, Yao Pingzhong's move is also entrusted by the seed master road, hoping to raise some reinforcements for Taiyuan, thinking that the other soldiers and horses are all defeated, and the Great Song Dynasty has no reinforcements.

Xiao Ming didn't understand a little, since it was recruiting soldiers, why didn't he set up a recruitment flag? Erecting the recruitment flag has its own food people, engaging in these chivalrous warriors or something, first, it is not easy to govern, but has not undergone orthodox training, how can you win against the Jurchen warriors who fight bravely and fiercely?

At will, he decided to go and see for himself what the hell this guy wants to do? It was good to take this opportunity to bring his men over, but before going, Xiao Ming also made some preparations and put on makeup.

Xiao Ming took Gu Xiaoliu, Guo Shouxin, Wu Song and Qian Baguang, and went straight to the place where Yao Pingzhong held the Anti-Jin Volunteer Conference, which was the place where Yao Pingzhong's industry in Hejian was called Qingyunzhuang......
