"Ordered the Jingyuan Road to pass through the envoy Zhang Qi, and immediately collect the people and things to build the city on standby at any time, and build Pingxia City as quickly as possible."

"Ordered all the armies on the Yan Road to continue to lure the enemy deeper, and once they found that the Western Xia army showed signs of retreating, they would immediately dig up the roads, destroy the bridges, and delay time for the construction of Pingxia City."

"Spread the order that the rest of the roads will pass through the envoys, attack the east and the west, attract the troops of the Western Xia, so that they will not be able to stop the construction of Pingxia City."

"Mobilize 5,000 crossbowmen from the forbidden army and 3,000 crossbowmen from each army! Collect the whole army's divine arm crossbows, and use strong crossbows for later use. ”

"Create a sky-shattering thunder as fast as possible and send it to Pingxia City."

………………………………

Zhao Xu was so excited that he issued several orders in a row, gathering the strength of the whole country to support the construction of Pingxia City.

Zhao Xu understood that all along, between Song and Xia, the Great Song Dynasty was passive, and once the construction of Pingxia City was completed, the Great Song Dynasty would completely change the situation.

As long as Pingxia City is held this time, more and more fortresses will appear on the Song-Xia border in the future.

"Obey your orders!" Hundreds of officials bowed down one after another to receive the order.

"Qi Qi Guanjia, Pingxia City is easy to repair, the most important thing is to hold the counterattack of Western Xia, and ask the official family to send elite soldiers and supervisors to Pingxia City to repel the Great Song Dynasty." Zhang Dian suggested.

Zhao Xu bowed slightly: "You Aiqing can have a candidate." ”

Zeng Bu proposed: "Among the generals, the breeder is the most knowledgeable soldier, among which the son of the breeder, Chong Punai, is a well-known marksman in the army, and it is most suitable for him to lead the troops to defend Pingxia City. ”

"Chongpu is indeed the right person."

The ministers nodded their heads.

The most powerful weapon to defend Pingxia City is the Shenjian crossbow, Chong Pu is the best at shooting, naturally the best candidate, and he is a fierce general, often fighting with Western Xia, familiar with Western Xia's offensive. ”

"As for the overseers............."

Zeng Bu couldn't help frowning, all dynasties and dynasties were eunuchs as supervisors, and the Song Dynasty was no exception, but civil officials have always disliked eunuchs, and before that, there was a precedent for the prison army to flee in fear, which made Zeng Bu quite dislike the eunuchs.

Zhao Xu frowned, supervising the army is the tradition of all dynasties, because only the eunuch is the most loyal to the emperor, and the Song Dynasty's military supervision system is relatively successful, such as the eunuch Qin Han and Li Xian, all of whom have made great achievements, and only one case of eunuchs fleeing in fear of war is not enough for Zhao Xu to shake this system.

At that moment, Zhao Xu couldn't help but look at Tong Guan, the personal eunuch on the side, Pingxia City is extremely important, and there is no room for mistakes, Tong Guan is the best candidate as a supervisor.

Tong Guan saw Zhao Xu's gaze, and couldn't help but feel numb on his scalp, Pingxia City seems to be invulnerable in theory, the power of the fortress has not been in actual combat after all, and once it is built, it will inevitably cause the whole army of Western Xia to attack, Yongle City's experience is in front of him, and the supervising army of Pingxia City will definitely be nine deaths.

However, Tong Guan, as a eunuch, all the power comes from the royal family, so naturally he can't refuse, at the moment, he gritted his teeth and prepared to respond, but he didn't expect Fan Zheng to take the lead and say: "Weichen Mao recommended himself and was willing to supervise the army for Pingxia City." ”

"Ahh In an instant, all the ministers were shocked, and they all looked at Fan Zheng incredulously.

It has always been the eunuch as the overseer! But there has never been a precedent for the Imperial Physician to oversee the army.

"Fan Taicheng!" Zhao Xu couldn't help but be shocked, Huo Ran looked at Fan Zheng, he didn't expect Fan Zheng to take the initiative to invite Ying to go to Pingxia City to supervise the army.

"Thank you Fan Taicheng for your kindness, Tong Guan is willing to die for the official family and take a trip to Pingxia City."

Tong Guanyi gritted his teeth and said, although it is quite risky to supervise the army in Pingxia City, the benefits are also huge, and it is worth his hard work.

Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "Weichen Mao's self-recommendation is not a scholar's spirit, nor is it for luck and prosperity. ”

Baiguan nodded slightly, Fan Zheng helped Zhao Xu to pro-government, he already has the merit of being a dragon, and he is a doctor, and his literary talents are immeasurable.

Naturally, there is no need to be like eunuchs and vulgar warriors, using their lives to win a fortune.

"Doctor's tradition: If a doctor creates a new prescription, he will try the medicine himself, but the strategy of Pingxia City is from the hands of Fan, only Fan can maximize its power, and Weichen is the most suitable candidate for the prison army." Fan Zheng said solemnly.

"Try the medicine for yourself."

Baiguan couldn't help but smile bitterly, although Fan Zheng's analogy was peculiar, it was not unreasonable.

Fan Zhengjin's strategy of Pingxia City is naturally the best understanding of it, and with Fan Zheng supervising the army of Pingxia City, the chances of defending it will be greater.

Moreover, Fan Zheng took the initiative to risk his life and supervise the army in Pingxia City, which made the hundred officials have a little more confidence in Pingxia City, after all, no one will take the initiative to send them to death.

"I naturally believe in Fan Taicheng's prescription, but Fan Taicheng is a miracle doctor in the world, how can he take this risk, why don't you let Tong Guan go." Zhao Xu hesitated.

The biggest role of the prison army is loyalty, although Fan Zheng is a doctor, as a prison army, his loyalty naturally does not need to be questioned, but Zhao Xu is quite dependent on Fan Zheng, so he naturally can't bear to have any mistakes in Fan Zheng.

Tong Guan couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, the personal eunuchs of all dynasties were the most trusted people in today's official families, and he was extremely unsuccessful, and in Zhao Xu's heart, he was not as good as the imperial doctor Fan Zheng.

Fan Zheng said solemnly: "Western Xia is not to worry, the henchmen of the Great Song Dynasty have always been the Liao State. Only when the Great Song Dynasty defeated the Western Xia as quickly as possible and made Pingxia City powerful in the world, it was possible to deter the Liao State and make the Liao State throw a rat trap, otherwise the two countries would attack, and the Great Song Dynasty would indeed win and suffer heavy losses. ”

Zhao Xu couldn't help but be shocked, and nodded slightly in his heart.

Liao and the Great Song Dynasty are very clear in their hearts that the so-called alliance of the Yuan Dynasty is just a paper covenant, and the Liao State took advantage of the battle of the Xia and Song Dynasty to sneak attack the Great Song Dynasty and tear up the alliance, and the Great Song Dynasty once it gained power, it will naturally attack the Liao State and recover the sixteen states of Yanyun.

Therefore, the Liao State did not give up any opportunity to weaken the Great Song Dynasty, so the Song-Xia War was at a stalemate, and the Liao State was afraid that it would take advantage of the weakness.

"Fan Taicheng is righteous!"

Hundreds of officials have surrendered, and Fan Zheng is indeed the best choice to serve as the supervisor of Pingxia City.

"Spread the decree and appoint the imperial physician Cheng Fan Zheng as the supervisor of Pingxia City, and set off for Jingyuan Road tomorrow to prepare for Pingxia City." Zhao Xu immediately decided.

Fan Zheng bowed solemnly and said, "Weichen will definitely swear to defend Pingxia City to the death!" ”

"I believe in you!" Zhao Xu nodded heavily.

This is not Zhao Xu's blind trust in Fan Zheng, but Fan Zheng's evil side has never been defeated, with this golden signboard, maybe Pingxia City can really be defended.

Baiguan also looked at Fan Zheng in a complicated way, although Pingxia City was mainly defensive, its strategy was offensive, and the same was true of the drawing fortress of Pingxia City, which replaced defense with offense, and brought the advantages of the city wall to the extreme.

Whether it is that Pingxia City will never fall as Fan Zheng said, or that it will kill and injure a large number of the main forces of Western Xia before it falls, it is great news for the Great Song Dynasty.

Of course, the defensive strength of the fortress has not been confirmed, and all this risk will be borne by Fan Zheng himself.
