Zhongxing Mansion is close at hand, and the official road is full of patrolling Western Xia cavalry and merchants rushing to Xingzhou, Wu'er Siqi couldn't help muttering in his heart, he came back from the Song Realm with an army of 30,000, and there were no special officials along the way, according to common sense, Li Renxiao's envoy should have arrived a long time ago. Could it be that the DPRK and the Central Committee can't take care of their own side except for some changes? This is impossible, Wu'er Siqi knows the current situation in Western Xia, after the defeat of Lingzhou, Xingzhou except for the 60,000 captured troops, that is, his own 30,000 people can be regarded as brave and good at fighting.

Whether it is Xia Renzong, Li Renxiao, or those powerful people, it is impossible to rest assured that such an army will be in his hands for a long time. Or, because he didn't hide the bones, this guy is Li Renxiao's henchman, so Li Renxiao is not in a hurry to ask about the situation; no, even if Li Renxiao trusts the no hidden bones, he won't ignore the gossip of others, so there is a reason for such treatment.

Wu'er Siqi couldn't guess whether it was a curse or a blessing, and for a while he was a little confused, waved his hand and called two cronies, and whispered a few words; the two cronies were Wu'er Siqi's clansmen, and after hearing this, they separated from each other, and each rode their war horses and galloped away in different directions. Wuzang Guduo was checking the state of the troops not far behind Wu'er Siqi, and he could see Wu'er Siqi's movements clearly, he knew that there were three forks in the land a few miles ahead of here, one road leading to Xingzhou, and the other road leading to Liupan Mountain.

After the army marched another twenty or thirty miles, a poplar forest stretched for miles, and the poplar trees in the spring had not yet grown leaves, nor could they see the golden yellow of autumn, only the loneliness in a green life, young and old, and extremely stubborn.

A roar of horses came from behind the poplar forest, and more than 20 horsemen suddenly rushed out from their hiding places, all wearing cyan helmets, and the big red horses spread out with the wind; the officers in front of the Dingyan Army naturally knew that this was the iron guard of the Western Xia royal family, and immediately raised their hands to signal the army to stop moving. In an instant, the marching army stopped advancing, tens of thousands of horses soared into the air, and violent neighing came and went.

Wu'er Siqi and Wuzang Guduo saw the banner in front of them, and immediately led the guards around them to ride forward, and after a while, they met with the coming iron guards in front of the army; Shi Ming is famous in Western Xia, when he was young, he and Zhang Huyi, Li Yan and called the three masters of Xingzhou, now Shi Ming is in charge of the Iron Guard, Zhang Huyi is in charge of the Paradise Hall, only the original commander of the Flying Dragon Battalion makes Li Yan know where to go.

Of course, no matter how brave the iron guard is, after all, it can't be compared with tens of thousands of soldiers in the army, if Shi Ming has any intention of doing anything, it is purely a dead end; Wu'er Siqi knows his strength, so he didn't have any unnecessary panic when he saw Shi Ming, and immediately stepped forward as usual, and asked: "Lord Shi, fortunately, I don't know what advice you have to stop the army?"

Wu'er Siqi's level is not comparable to Shi Ming, Shi Ming saluted on the horse and said: "General Wu'er Siqi, the lower official came to convey the message on the order of the lord of the country, hoping that the Dingyan army will be stationed along the Yellow River, and the general will guard against the enemy of Lingzhou, and General Wuzang Guduo will be responsible for the enemy of Xiazhou." ”

Wu'er Siqi frowned slightly and asked: "But why don't you inform us in advance, we can divide our troops a hundred miles away, and the garrison needs the cooperation of the local government and the military supervision department, and we can't even solve the problem of grain and grass in the garrison without an official document." ”

Shi Ming replied: "Empress Dowager Ren and others do not agree, and hope that the general will hand over the troops to Lord Ren Dejing." ”

Shi Ming knew that Wu'er Siqi was experienced, and he couldn't hide it from the fifteenth year of junior high school, so he simply spoke out; whether it could be successful or not would ultimately fall on Wu'er Siqi, and whether this person was willing to stand on his side only depends on whether this news could stimulate Wu'er Siqi. Wu'er Siqi laughed out loud and said in a sad tone: "The Song people have been killed, and we have no power to resist at all, but we are still fighting for power and profit here. ”

Wu'er Siqi's side looked at Shi Ming blankly, not knowing whether he should comfort Wu'er Siqi or react to it; Shi Ming seemed to know that this was an inevitable scene, and sighed lightly and said nothing. Fortunately, Wu'er Siqi did not indulge in despair for long, and after a while, he came to his senses, and his anger turned into a gloomy sigh: "Shi Ming, I can't let my soldiers be wronged, I understand what you mean, but I can only hope for a miracle now, and my army is camped on both sides of this road, waiting for the official document of the imperial court." ”

Shi Ming's face changed suddenly, Wu'er Siqi's actions would make the whole incident very complicated, but Shi Ming also knew that he couldn't command Wu'er Siqi at all, even if he didn't have the help of Hidden Guduo, as long as Wu'er Siqi didn't die, the army in front of him wouldn't listen to him. Shi Ming reluctantly smiled: "Since the general has made a decision, Shi has to go back and tell the lord of the country before making a decision." ”

Fortunately, it is less than fifty miles away from Xingzhou, and it can be reached in more than an hour; Wu'er Siqi nodded, looked at Shi Ming and his party, turned his horse's head, and immediately ordered the army to rest on the spot. Wu Gu Duo said a little worriedly: "General, your approach is thankless. ”

Wu'er Siqi smiled lightly: "That's better than going to the Yellow River and waiting for the army to get into chaos; don't you want to think about it, if it's just the Empress Dowager Ren alone, even if the lord of the country can't do it, the King of Jin can't be convinced." It must be that most of the dignitaries in the court are on the side of the Empress Dowager Ren, and the lord of the country may not even be able to ask the Ministry of War to issue an official document, so he will send Shi Ming to deliver the message; I am worried that the story of the Empress Dowager Liang will repeat itself, and we are here to wait for the final news. ”

The Empress Dowager Liang in Wu'er Siqi's mouth is the second queen of Yizong Li Liangzuo of Western Xia, and her son Xia Huizong Li Bingchang ascended the throne, and Liang controlled the Western Xia regime as the empress dowager for 18 years. Empress Dowager Liang was a Han but behaved more like a party member than a party member, and in the past 18 years, she fought a bloody war with the Great Song Dynasty, causing a loss of 600,000 soldiers to the Song Dynasty, and the money and food were incalculable;

Wu Gu Duo was taken aback when he heard it, he heard the firmness in Wu'er Siqi's words, and knew that Wu'er Siqi was in charge of this matter.
