Chapter 864: Why bother with a windfall

"No, big brother. Ren Degong handed over the secret report of Jile Hall: "Yang Zhi has subdued Wang Gu, Balhu, and Tibetan Cai clans, plus his own army, there are not 30,000, but 20,000. The Wanggu tribe is now looking for a place to relocate, so they are out of their strength. ”

Ren Decong roared in a hoarse voice: "We take it for granted that there are only so many Dingbei troops, and our strength is enough to defeat them, but on the contrary, Yang Zhi stabbed us hard. All of us made a mistake in judgment, so we were defenseless and defeated in the face of the fierce attack of the Dingbei Army. ”

Ren Dejing was dumbfounded, he suddenly realized that Ren Decong was not shirking responsibility, but he had made a preconceived fatal mistake, and always thought that Yelu Yujian was the great enemy of this rebellion, but looking at Yang Zhi's series of actions, it was nothing more than Yang Zhi who planned all this, and smoothly came all the way west, Shuozhou, Huozhou, Yunnei, Heqingjun, Jingzhou, and Yinzhou were all in the bag. Even the enemy is mistaken, and the victory or defeat of this battle can be imagined.

"Is there any news from Xingqing Mansion?" Ren Dejing's first reaction when he came back to his senses was whether the court of Western Xia would lose trust in him and change a general to be responsible for countering the rebellion, Ren Degong shook his head again and again and said: "Extrapolating from the time, Zhang Yanyi should return to the court, but the Dingbei Army suddenly launched an attack on Yinzhou, I am afraid it will also make the emperor guess, if you want to reverse the crisis, you can only hope for Brother Richard, the king of Jin, and do more, as long as we recover Xiping Mansion, we can turn the crisis into peace; ”

"Good. Ren Dejing understands that if the Western Xia army wants to save the situation, it must fight with Yang Zhi non-stop, the Canglang battalion is famous for its equipment and tactics to shock the north, and the Tibetan tribe and other tribes can provide Yang Zhi with more than 20,000 troops, and they can't afford to spend it, so they can only raise tigers for trouble.

Yang Zhi appointed Kong Yanwei as the governor of Yinzhou and sat in Qiyincheng; ordered Wang Shougu to be the governor of Guzhou and occupy the original Xixia Dazhai of Guyehe; Lu Shuqiu was the governor of Beifengzhou and temporarily settled in Xiongyong Village and later rebuilt at the original address of Fengzhou; Fuguxuan was appointed as the governor of Shengzhou and occupied Mizhi Village; and Ah Shubi was appointed as the governor of Xuzhou and stayed in the town of Huozhou Xiazhen.

Yang Zhi returned to Huozhou, was busy relocating the people of the Tibetan Cai tribe and the Balhu tribe, the prodigal son Yan Qing came to see, Yang Zhi thought that Yan Qing was a guest of the Zhi family at first, but now Zhi Kefu has left, the prodigal son Yan Qing is still in the volcano town, so that Yang Zhi feels a trace of curiosity; Yang Zhi asked Yan Qing to bring Yan Qing in, Yan Qing saw Yang Zhi saluted and said: "The head of the first battle to decide Yinzhou will definitely make the Song and Xia sides cold, which is gratifying." ”

Yang Zhi asked teasingly: "You came to me, it won't be as simple as congratulations, if it weren't for the fact that you have a friendship with Lu Zhishen and others, I don't plan to see you." Say, what's the matter?"

The prodigal son Yanqing didn't wait for Yang Zhi to speak, he sat on the wooden bench on the right and said: "Originally, Sun Li, Xie Shi and others and I were going to escort the dart to Jincheng, but unfortunately Yan Lou's room captured Luzhou at that time, and we could only hand over the dart to Yao Gu in Zezhou." That dart is the Jinshan Temple sent to Bianliang Jiazhan Warehouse iron essence, originally on the official document to do some tricks, the destination Taiyuan, delivery in Fuzhou, in fact, the dart team went to Jincheng. ”

A sharp cold light flashed in Yang Zhi's eyes, he didn't expect Bianliang to be so boring, and he took an iron meteorite to make a fuss, so he smiled and said: "It's a bit complicated, what about the purpose?"

"I'm a guy who runs errands, and no one told me my true purpose, but in my guess, Xie Shi should be the Shenxiao Sect and your people in order to deal with the martial arts sect in the north. Yan Qing's face did not change and said: "According to my estimate, Xie Shi should arrange a group of people to rob the iron essence near Jincheng, and directly say that it was robbed in Taiyuan, which makes people suspect that your subordinates did it, so you have to go back to Bianliang to argue." ”

This possibility is absolutely there, at that time, it was the time to return to Beijing, if such an unclear thing happened, and he did not have time to investigate, it was easy for Xie Shi to cover up the truth; Yang Zhi nodded and said, "Thank you for telling me the truth, but since it was handed over in Zezhou, it must not be this matter for you to come to Volcano Town, you want to see the scenery outside the Saiwai?"

Yan Qing felt that Yang Zhi was still a Jianghu person, and he spoke without scruples, and said with a wry smile: "My lord said that I was surprised, Zhe Yanzhi was in Zezhou at the time, and our goods were originally handed over to the Fuzhou Zhejia, and it doesn't matter if the plan is canceled, but it should be handed over to the Zhejia." I think Xie Shi and Yao Gu secretly made a deal, because Xie Shi did not return to Bianliang, but went to Weizhou with Sun Li. ”

Weizhou belongs to Jingyuan Road, although Yang Zhi can't guess what Xie Shi is going to do there, but he absolutely believes that Yan Qing will not lie to himself on this issue; Yang Zhi thought about it and said: "This matter is very likely, after all, the iron essence can create a divine weapon, if Yao Gu has the idea to do this, it is understandable, but the Zhejia family has not received the goods, so he should ask in the book; ”

Yan Qing bowed his head and said: "The strange thing is this detail, I went to Volcano Town and mixed with Zhe Kefu for a few months, and he didn't ask me, and the rest of the Zhe family didn't talk about it, as if Bianliang didn't inform them." Originally, I wasn't going to do much, but the other day, I saw the iron essence in the business of Bashli in the volcanic town, but they didn't seem to know what it was. ”

"Bashili?" Yang Zhi remembered that he also knew a Basheli in Youzhou, the half-brother of the Uighur king Bilge, Yang Zhi would not be so coincidental in his heart, so he immediately asked Shan Tinggui to bring people, and Yan Qing went to invite Bashili, and by the way, he brought the iron essence;

Yang Zhi stood up and welcomed, "That piece of iron essence was lost by the Great Song Mansion, where did you get it?"

"I came from Gaochang City in China, and the iron essence was bought in Volcano Town, and the person who sold it to me was called Ren Yuan, who knew him very early in Taiyuan, and had a nickname called Optimus Prime. Bashili had a strange expression on his face: "Isn't your Dingbei Army already unrelated to the Great Song Dynasty?

Yang Zhi laughed: "I'm strange, since you know the iron spirit and know that it is precious, why bother exposing the windfall to people to see, Ren Yuanren?"
