Throughout April, Xia and Qi basically spent the uninterrupted small and medium-sized ***. The Xia people didn't seem to have many soldiers. The imperial guards were dispatched several times, but then they stopped moving. Instead, they were the foreign soldiers of Li Siyi's tribe. They met the Xi people's chess opponents, and they fought with each other, and they fought back and forth.

When Li Siyi was consumed with bad luck, the men, women, young and old of Li Neng tribe in Pingzhou also drove cattle and sheep over, and immediately entered the battlefield and fought with the Ahui tribe, which made them unable to support them. Shi Lu and his brothers under the jurisdiction were forced to bring some vassal tribes to provide assistance, barely stabilizing the front line.

This is not over. Just when Li Neng felt pain at the loss, more than 10,000 men, women, young and old in Li Shao's business department drove cattle and sheep to eat the mat.

His capital was not large, but the three thousand new forces rushed forward and became the last straw that broke the camel's back. The Ahui tribe collapsed directly, and the subordinates led the real Khitans and the Khitans, Xi, Wu and Tatar tribes who followed Shi Lu also suffered great defeat in their fighting spirit and were frightened.

Considering that the men, women, old and weak, and cattle and sheep of the Ahui tribe had already retreated, Shi Lu could only sigh and sent people to detour to Yanshan Mountain to try to harass the Xia army's food route, while running away.

At this point, the Xia people completely gained a foothold in the Mulan Eidground - in fact, they did not use much force. On April 21, Li Cunxiao led 5,000 Qingyi troops, and ten thousand people from Youzhou's foreigners and Hu people ran out of Linyu Pass, galloping all the way to Bailangzhu. The tribes they encountered along the way, no matter how big or small, were all avoided, and there were even those who took the initiative to surrender.

Bailang Shu is a military fort, which was on the west bank of the upper reaches of the Daling River on the left wing of Kalaqin in later generations. During the pre-Tang Dynasty, a little further north here was the national border between the Tang and the Khitan.

In the third year of Zhenming in the Later Liang Dynasty (917), Abao was able to lead hundreds of thousands of cavalry to the south and besiege Youzhou. He was defeated by Li Siyuan and Fu Cunshen's 70,000 infantry and cavalry, and fled back to Liaoze. Zhou Dewei, the governor of Youzhou, then recruited soldiers, restored the eight guards behind the mountain, and sent troops to guard them. Bailang Shu was one of these eight military camps.

After Li Cunxiao led his army here, Daxia also restored control of these places. Some tribes that had not moved inward and surrendered to the Khitan were like fence-bearing plants and surrendered one after another.

On April 30, Shao Shude and his new Tielin Army and more than 30,000 people arrived at Changxia Palace. This was the first time he had run so far after occupying Youzhou, almost reaching the edge of Liaoze. But looking at the surrounding situation carefully, it seemed that it was not so dangerous.

The ten thousand cavalrymen who were temporarily under the camp of Rouzhou have received the order and advanced eastward to Sanquan, waiting for the next order.

Li Cunxiao's troops have arrived at Bailangzhu.

Dingnan Army, Tielin Army, and Yinan are in Changxia Palace.

The three armies are almost connected into a straight line, echoing each other, and can advance or retreat.

Shao Sheng didn't believe it at all. With the Tielin Army man here, how could the Khitans do him? - uh, wait, Tielin Army.

Actually it's okay.

The Tie Linjun is now ridiculed by many people, so it depends on whom. When fighting head-on, the Khitans have no way to deal with them.

Of course, Shao Sheng did not intend to go to a full war with the Khitan now. What he did now was to fully restore the territory of the former Youzhou Town behind the mountain and outside the pass.

The Khitans took advantage of Li Keyong's large number of Yan soldiers, but they did not defend outside the pass and then encroached on them. Of course, this behavior was intolerable, and they had to know how much they had.

"Greetings to Your Majesty." Shao Zhili, Li Siyi, Wei Boqiu, Fu Yanchao and other major officials all bowed to the ground.

"Get up." The little yellow gate moved the imperial throne, and Shao Shude sat up directly and said.

The fifth son of the emperor, Shao Huixian, the sixth son of the emperor, Shao Mingyi, Prime Minister Chen Cheng, Xiao Lu, Pei Zhi, Privy Councilor Yang Yu, Deputy Envoy Hu Zhen, Deputy Minister of Personnel Zhang Xuanyan, and Minister of War Wang Pu and others were all in the left and right.

There were two women sitting next to Shao Shude. On the left is Empress He of Tang Shuxian, and on the right is the newly enthroned concubine Ashide.

This is the first time the two of them appeared in public. Especially Queen He, who gave birth to a second son for Shao Shude in February, stopped hiding and simply showed it to others publicly.

Shao Shude thought that he would defeat Cangjing and the two towns of Youzhou, and dared not anyone to advise him, but unexpectedly, Wang Pu, the Minister of War, advised him to hand over the He family to take care of his relatives.

This is what Wang Gui advised Li Shimin in the early Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin's cousin, Li Ai, the King of Lujiang, was killed and his wives and concubines were taken into the palace. One of them was beautiful and served very well. Li Shimin himself was also very proud and often brought him by his side to meet with the ministers, which was quite flaunting. As a result, Wang Gui choked and couldn't hold it on his face. Finally, he let the woman go and gave it to his relatives to take care of her.

But Empress He had a special status and Shao Shude was reluctant to send her away, so he was unhappy. Wang Pu had no choice but to advise him, so he did not advise him again.

At this time, He looked at the dense ministers in front of him, and the chief tycoon was a little nervous. However, after all, he was a queen and a person who had been in court, and he still had a basic demeanor, sitting upright and smiling.

She knew that many people might mock her in her heart. After all, she took the initiative to throw herself into her arms. But she was afraid of death and was greedy for wealth. It doesn’t matter what others think, and she is going to be so bad.

Ashide's lower abdomen was slightly raised, and her eyes only stayed on Shao Zhili for a while before moving away.

She knew very well that the value of this child in her belly was a hundred times better than that of Shao Zhili. In order to get the opportunity, she didn't know how long she had prepared secretly, and she was determined. Of course, her luck was also good enough, so she got pregnant immediately. She was now satisfied with Concubine.

"Where is Shao Zhili?" Shao Shude asked.

"Your Majesty, I am here." Damn, there are too many high-ranking officials present. Shao Zhili was actually squeezed behind. Hearing the call, he hurried forward.

"How was the division of Changxia Palace formed?" Shao Shude asked.

"It has been formed, with a total of 17,000 households and more than 46,900 households." Shao Zhili replied.

In principle, the establishment of Qianhu is to separate the old tribes from the past and divide them according to clans. One clan and one thousand households, and Changxia Palace has seventeen clans, which is seventeen thousand households.

"How do you feel when fighting with the Khitans recently?" Shao Shude asked again.

"Your Majesty, there are still some strange things among the thousands of households. After fighting a few times, it's much better. Please give me some time to rectify it. It will definitely be a strong soldier in the future." Shao Zhili replied.

"No," Shao Shude praised.

He took Ashide's hand, and a smile appeared on Ashide's face and looked at Shao Zhili with encouragement.

"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. If someone comes, give them armor and equipment." Shao Shude clapped his hands and said.

Pu Gu Chengen quickly stepped forward, took out a list and said, "Shao Gongguan, the official family specially granted 4,000 armor, 5,000 pairs of armor, 10,000 bows, 10,000 spears, 2,500 swords, and 1,000 horses."

Shao Zhili was overjoyed and knelt down again, saying, "Your Majesty has such a generous encounter, and it is hard to repay the long summer palace."

This reward is really rich. Especially the four thousand collar armor was distributed to the old guards from Yulin, Woyang, and Xianyou three palaces, and the thousands of backbones brought by him can also be divided.

Long spear, cavalry and bow, and modao are also very valuable and can greatly enrich their arsenal and play a great role in the future when fighting with the Khitan.

"This is a battle tool for fighting." Shao Shude smiled and said, "However, the children went deep into Liaoze and worked so hard. How could they have no money? Jie Shanggong!"

"I am here." Shanggong Jie stepped forward.

"Is the goods ready?" Shao Shude asked.

"Everything is already ready. One official gave two hu of grain, one hu of money, one piece of silk, one piece of cloth, and more than a hundred households, each with a difference." Jie replied.

"Good." Shao Shude said, "Let your children line up, and I will personally supervise the reward. "The glory of Khan can be seen to the sun and the moon." Shao Zhili said with admiration.

The news of the reward was quickly spread. When everyone in Changxia Palace heard about it, they were all overjoyed. They spontaneously helped the elderly and young, knelt down, and stuffed the grassland full.

Shao Shude also stood up with interest, took He and Ashide's hand and walked out slowly. "Greetings to Khan Wushang!"

"Meet Ke Dun!" "Meet Mrs. Yan!"

The tribes almost knocked their heads on the grass, extremely respectful and pious. Shao Shude looked at the slaves kneeling all over the ground and sighed in his heart.

The grassland is a noble politics, which is even more excessive than the Southern Dynasties. Ordinary herders really have no chance, not a single one.

If your bloodline is not noble enough, you will not have the appeal. If you don’t have the appeal, you will not be able to support the team. If you can’t support the team, you will not have the opportunity to improve your bloodline, and you will be closed.

Only when a man who has never been seen in hundreds or even thousands of years, a strong man from the grassland came to a chicken-eating competition in the whole grassland and was completely reshuffled, will the shepherd slaves stand out and become a nobleman. After the reshuffle, it is still aristocratic politics, but it is just a group of people.

The Supreme Khan’s newly established slave tribe actually gave many herd slaves from the bottom.

Because this is a brand new group, there are few bonds of the past and fewer interests. Everyone has the opportunity to rise, and they have hundreds, thousands or even thousands of households. Although these positions do not have the name of aristocrats, they are still very attractive to have the reality of aristocrats.

Therefore, at present, the guards' personal military system is still in a prosperous state. At least they are very motivated, and many people want to make contributions and save family business for their descendants.

Therefore, the Miche, Khitan, and Goguryeo who were kneeling on the ground were also truly obedient, because the Khan opened up a different world for them, and there were a lot of merits waiting for them to build.

Chen Cheng and Xiao Lu met inadvertently.

The saints, the slave tribe, also had a vague restraint on the great Han tribes. If these people can learn civil and military skills and produce some talents, the saints will not have to rely entirely on nobles and scholars.

These days, the slaves of the family live in the grassland, and their connection with the Central Plains is definitely not as good as that of the Han tribes. They can only rely on the emperor and are a very useful knife in the hands of the emperor. In extreme cases, the civil officials of the Han family and the aristocratic families can also rely on their slaves to promote things, and they will not be completely controlled by others. It doesn’t matter if you stab the trouble, just send them back to the grassland to avoid the limelight. Anyway, the slaves are just scapegoats. "The guards will arrive next month. Then you can practice well and let the thief Abaoji see your power." Shao Shude stood on the grassland, standing like a mountain, surrounded by dense herders kneeling on the ground and kowtowed. The chief commander Haoqu all bowed his head and respectfully.

The purple-robed Taoist priest Zhang Suqing splashed ink and painted on the spot.

Yang Ningshi, a Hanlin scholar, prepared a draft and wrote on the painting: "There is nothing to do in the mountains and rivers, and the wind and horses will return. There are few cavalry riders on the roadside of the Qingzhong Road; when he was surrendered to the north of the city, there was no worries about the silhouette. In April of the fourth year of Jianji, the emperor was blessed with Liuhe River, and the barbarians and summers were at peace. The mountains and rivers were together forever, and the sun and the moon were hanging long."
