Of course, Wang Hou couldn't let the elites from Kaifeng Prefecture live in Lanzhou, and the elites were still waiting to exchange the Tubo people's heads for houses...

"Don't underestimate Xisharosa, this thief has always been good at fighting, and the powerful chief Doroba helped him. Doroba and his three sons are good at fighting, so they would rather look up to him than underestimate them."

After hearing Wang Hou's words, Gao Qiu estimated the price of Xisharosa, Doroba and Doroba's three sons in his heart... These five heads should be worth a lot of houses, right?

"Xisheluosa and Doroba are both brave and unscheming people. Qingtang is already divided and everything is difficult. They also borrowed money from Zhao Huaide and Tongsong to raise trouble, killing each other and disrupting their families. It is simply a way to seek death." Gao Yongnian's voice sank a little, "What really needs to be guarded against is the Western thief! There is news that the Western thief King Cha Ge has always been brave and is currently in charge of the army and wants to reorganize and do a big fight with us. However, the military affairs are not done every day. This time, there should be no force to be drawn to interfere in the Hehuang war, but I am afraid that I will harm you again in the future."

The two brothers Weiming Ganshun and Weiming Cha Ge were actually all scared by the house slave soldiers named "Tian Khan" Zhao Ji. The standards of Wei Wuzhang were also so fierce that they were so determined to fight that they would rather die than retreat!

After returning to Xingqing Mansion, Brother Cha told his brother about what he saw and heard, and the two brothers hugged their heads and cried bitterly.

The Great Song Dynasty has released the Khan of the Khan, what should the Dabai Gaoguo do?

In order not to be a devastating king and minister, the two brothers fought hard. The elder brother Gan Shunfeng, the younger brother Cha Ge, became the King of Jin, and also gave him full authority to preside over military reforms. He also gave Shangfang orders to control the three armies (if he did not obey the orders, he beat them first and then reported). Cha Ge proposed that the whole people would be soldiers, farming and preparing for war, and take turns to go on a war. At the same time, he also proposed that a large number of equipment and strong crossbows were equipped to enhance the troops' defense capabilities.

However, it is a process for these reform measures to be effective. Before the reform is completed, the Xixia army was still weak and it was impossible to fight the Song army, which had the advantage, in the Hehuang area.

Tong Guan smiled and said, "Now the focus of the Western thieves is on Wudinghe and Lingzhou. The ones that can be used on the Western Front are the soldiers of Renduo families." He paused, "It would be great if Renduo Baozhong's soldiers could be tricked from Zhuoluo City to around Qingtang City."

After the Battle of Hengshan, the Song army had a complete psychological advantage against Xixia. Moreover, Tong Guan also had powerful Imperial Knights and Dragon Warriors. Although there were only 5,000 people, how many elite troops could the Renduo family have? If they were to survive, they would be three or four thousand, which was not enough to see.

"It's better to divide the troops into two groups, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one by one by one by the south, two by one by one, and one by one by the Huangzhong, and meet at the city of Huangzhou. After capturing Huangzhou, they will stop at the Ailuling Ridge and wait for another battle next year. In this way, most of the Western thieves will send Renduo Baozhong's troops to the Liuling Ridge to the city of Qingtang." Wang Hou said his plan to lure Dangxiang into the Qingtang, and he was full of confidence in his judgment in his words.

Now there are roughly three territories in Tsongkha Tubo, one is Huangzhou controlled by Doroba; the other is Qingtang occupied by Xisharosa; and the other is Guzhou controlled by Luo Shi Junlingjie, the chief leader of the Tubo tribe. However, Luo Shi Junlingjie's fence-bearing sect, is not worth mentioning. What you have to deal with are Xisharosa and Doroba.

Wang Hou's plan was very simple. He first divided his troops and took down Huangzhou controlled by Mount Tai to suppress the top of the mountain. Then the army spent the winter in Huangzhou, leaving Renduobaozhong with time to reinforce Xishalusa. As long as Renduobaozhong led his troops to cross the Liuling Mountains into Qingtang City, the Song army could destroy him and Xishalusa's troops together.

Once Renduo Baozhong's main force was finished, the capital of Zhuoluo Military Supervisor of the Xixia right wing Zhuoluo City was the item in the Xihe Army. Although Wang Hou did not know that Zhao Ji and Cai Jing were playing a big game, both regarded Zhuoluo City as a key location, he also thought of seizing Zhuoluo City.

The Karochuan behind Zhuoluo City and Zhuoluo City is a large stronghold near Lanzhou. Once the place is captured by the Song army, Xixia will have to retreat to the Qinwangchuan. The terrain around Qinwangchuan is not steep and it is very difficult to defend. In this way, the initiative on the battlefield on the Western Front will completely fall into the hands of the Song army.

If the Song army could go further and directly take down Qin Wangchuan, then Xixia would be divided into two!

However, even if we cannot seize the Qin Wangchuan, just taking Zhuoluo City is enough to mobilize the main force of the Western thieves placed in the Wudinghe area to assist the West. In this way, the Wudinghe area will be completely controlled by the Song army after losing Hengshan, and the Wudinghe area will be the last barrier to protect Xingqing Prefecture. However, compared with the Qin Wangchuan, the Wudinghe area is not so important.

Because of the loss of Wuding River, Xingqing Prefecture would fall into crisis in a few years (the Song army must first cultivate farms in Wuding River, and only after harvest can the Xingqing Prefecture be expeditioned westward), but the Xixia can still move the whole country westward. Although the Western Xia could not defeat the Song Dynasty, when we arrived in the Western Regions, the two Uighurs fought casually?

Once Qin Wangchuan is occupied by the Song army, it is impossible for Xixia to escape, so she can only sit and wait for death!

Therefore, the importance of Qin Wangchuan is actually beyond Wuding River.

Wu Haowen suddenly interrupted and asked: "If you want to fight like this, you have to send 50,000 troops. If you attack for about a year, can you get the military and food?"

"I can't take it out," Zhang Shuye smiled, "How could there be so much food? A 50,000 army, and a large number of horses. If we consider the consumption during the transportation process, at least two million stones of grain and horse materials are consumed in a year in the attack, how can it be supplied by the reserves of Lanzhou, Xizhou, Hezhou, Minzhou and Taozhou?"

"How can you fight without food and grass?" Wu Haowen was stunned.

"Of course I eat Tubo!" Zhang Shu said at night, "It took one month for the army to occupy Huangzhou, so it was enough for Lanzhou to hoard food and grass at Anxiang Pass and Jingyu Pass for the army and civilians to consume for two months, and then you can eat the Huangzhou vassal states."

"They are willing to give us food?" Wu Haowen couldn't understand.

Wang Hou nodded repeatedly: "I am willing, I am willing... My great Song Dynasty heavenly soldiers conquered people with virtue, why do they refuse?"

The biggest difference between Tsongkha Tubo and Xixia is that there is no strong central government. Therefore, when fighting with Xixia, if the other party fails, it will strengthen the walls and clear the fields, making the invading Song army unable to raise food and grass on the spot. However, Tsongkha Tubo cannot strengthen the walls and clear the fields, so the Song army can allow the Tubo tribes in Huangzhou to provide food and horses... It is impossible not to give them, and the Western Army of the Song Dynasty is also very good at conquering people with virtue!

Wu Haowen still doesn’t believe in the effect of competing people with virtue, so he frowned and asked, “When can we send troops?”

Uncle Zhang said at night: "It should be ready in June and July."

...

In June, when the southeast wind was strong, Su Shi and Wu Side took the Zhaocai galley to return to Jiehe Market from Danluo Island.

The market seems to be more prosperous and lively than ever before. There are construction sites everywhere inside and outside the city. Jiehe Wharf is full of various sea boats and river boats, and dock workers wearing short jackets and bare arms are shuttled and transporting various goods.

The area of ​​the port terminal is much larger than when Wu Side left the last time, and many newly built wharfs appeared. Not only were the areas along the border Henan City that were used to build wharfs, but also many docks carrying livestock and wood appeared along the border Hebei City.

There are two more floating bridges on the Jiehe River, and there are chariots, horses and people coming and going!

In the coastal areas outside the city of Jiehenan City, there are a large number of shipyards. Outside the west city, there are shipyards for building Inner Hegang ships, and outside the east city, there are shipyards for building sea boats, all of which are extremely busy. You can hear the sound of tingling and the sound of workers' labor horns from a distance. In addition to the boat yard and dock, there are more than a dozen tall water trucks on the edge of a large section of the river in the west of Jiehecheng. I don’t know what it is for?

A little further from the south bank of Jiehe, there are schools lined up. There are the Jiehe Branch of Yuntai Academy, Jiehe Knights College, Jiehe Shipbuilding School, Jiehe Dongkai Academy, and several newly built schools that Wu Side didn't know what they taught.

In the west of Jiehe City, a little far from the river bank, there are many chimneys with black smoke, and there are also brick kilns without a roof that are unique to Jiehe Market. Black smoke is filled with smoke and dust floats everywhere.

Although the urban environment has deteriorated, the entire Jiehe Market has shown a unique vitality, which is the vitality of capitalism!

Su Shi looked at the lively scene in front of him, and then thought about the scene he saw on Danluo Island and at the Hakata Port in Japan that was almost a different world. He became more and more confused about Wu Haogu.

Jiehe, Haizhou, and Kaifeng Prefecture are so good. What's the point? And they don't like it very much. They are also a great official from the Song Dynasty and were turned away in Hakata, Japan, and they didn't even let the Dazaifu go. They just sent a few Japanese sesame officials to Hakata to deal with it.

It's so shameless! It's just using hot faces to get rid of these Japanese people's cold ass...

The "Zhaocai" stopped at the dock of Jiehe Chuanzheng Academy, and a few sailors skillfully broke down the cables and quickly put up the springboard. Su Shi had been unable to stand it any longer. He had not set foot on the land of the Song Dynasty for more than half a year. So he was the first to walk off the pedal. Behind him, there were several short men and women wearing Han clothes, all of whom were shocked, just like those who came out of a remote countryside for the first time to come to Kaifeng Prefecture.

The Siye of Jiehe Shipbuilding School and Wu Yanzhao from Wu Family Marine Business have already come out to greet him after hearing the news. He bowed to Su Shi from afar: "Brother Zhongnan, is it Brother Zhongnan? But I'm looking forward to you!"

Su Shi also folded his fists and replied: "It turns out it's Wu Siye. I haven't seen you for a long time... Can Xuanzan be in Jiehe?"
Chapter completed!
