Like most nomadic peoples, the Kakuro regime had several, if not dozens, of tribes, large and small. Under the influence of the Song people, they built Qingtang City as a base to trade goods with the Song people.

Therefore, Qingtang City is also the richest and most prosperous place in the Jiaoluo regime. It is also the location of the so-called king's tent of Ali Gu, and it is also a place where people can feel a sense of security by being heavily guarded.

Of course, this is only relative. A city taken out of the interior of the Song Dynasty may have more oil than Qingtang City.

As soon as Zhao Xu's will arrived, the Zhenjiang Army, which had been prepared for a long time, and the 60,000 Qinfeng Road garrisons who obeyed You Shixiong's orders, marched straight to Qingtang City.

In a month's time, the Zhenjiang army also gained the fresh blood of a thousand people. It's just that the combat effectiveness of this thousand people is not guaranteed. After all, most of these veterans in the Zhenjiang Army have been training for a year.

On the one hand, as recruits, they do not have the combat experience of veterans, and secondly, they do not have the strong physique of veterans, and this battle is to fight against the Qingtang people, Tang Ning has to be anxious about this.

For example, this group of talents has completed the novice task and received the equipment, and they met the **oss of the novice village, which is actually very worrying.

You Shixiong now has a high opinion of Tang Ning, the reason is that he thinks that Tang Ning may be arranging troops and arranging troops, and his ability to march and fight is not very mature, but his ability to play tricks and engage in intrigue and tricks is not weak.

Throughout the ages, the orthodox dynasty in the Central Plains has never fought recklessly like nomads.

Before dinner is served, the nomads like to go to the neighbor's house to eat and drink. And the neighbor who cultivated and read the heirloom looked at this bastard who was carrying a big blade and took care of his own food, so he naturally wanted to turn him away.

How does this work? I ran so far with great effort, and I ate a lot of dry food along the way, and I went back empty-handed, wouldn't it be worth the loss?

So the nomads opened the door of the neighbor's house with a big knife, came in and plundered it, and snatched the neighbor's wife before leaving.

That's why the neighbor said you were bullying an honest man, and I couldn't bear it. And so a war will start like this.

To sum up, in ancient times, the reason for wanting to use troops abroad was very important. A seemingly righteous reason can gag many people's mouths, so that many people who have the heart to put their hands in will honestly watch from the sidelines.

You Shixiong's original plan was to send someone to his death. As long as the Song army dies at the hands of the Qingtang people, this is undoubtedly the best reason for Qingtang to use troops.

But when Tang Ning came to operate, he was able to get three hundred Qingtang horses, which was an unexpected surprise for You Shixiong.

With these three hundred Qingtang horses, at least the scouts' foot strength will be faster. In this way, when the two armies are fighting, the collection and feedback of intelligence will be more efficient than before

The higher, the higher the win rate.

And the fundamental reason why he changed his attitude towards Tang Ning was because of Zhao Xu's handwritten letter.

In fact, there was nothing on the letter sent by Zhao Xu, except that he sent a person he trusted very much, and sent a blank letter with a large seal.

Whatever to write on it is decided by You Shixiong and Tang Ning. As long as there are Liu Ling, the official of the Imperial City Division, Cheng Yang, the supervisor of the soldiers and horses of the Zhenjiang Army, Chen Qing, the envoy of the Shaanxi Road, and Li Chong, the angel sent by Zhao Xu, these four people nodded and agreed together, and this letter can be written and used by the two of them.

Of course, You Shixiong knew that he was just borrowing Tang Ning's light, and what Zhao Xu believed could not be himself, so it could only be this Tang Ning.

So when You Shixiong found that even if he was unhappy with Tang Ning, he couldn't affect his status in the hearts of the official family, so he decided to have a good relationship with Tang Ning.

This is no longer Jane's point in the emperor's heart, if he didn't know his surname Tang, You Shixiong even felt that this was the same brother as Zhao Xu.

Riding on Ah Ash who was pacing leisurely, Tang Ning felt for the first time that a spring horse like Ah Ash was not suitable as his mount in the battle array.

Ash's favorite thing to do is to walk two steps and then bow his head and nibble on the grass on the side of the road to taste it.

If it tasted good, she would stop and take two more bites. When the taste is bad, she will keep her head up and continue walking.

In fact, Tang Ning also discovered this problem with Ah Ash before, even in the process of fighting the bandits on the road before, Ah Ash ran unhurriedly, and had the leisure to graze on the side of the road.

So Tang Ning planned to find a good horse in Qingtang this time to be his mount, and as for Ah Ash, he sent someone to send him home. In the future, if he has a son or daughter, he will use ash to teach him to ride a horse.

Thinking of this, Tang Ning couldn't help but feel sad again. Qi Xianyu has a big belly, and now he doesn't know what to do. The two separated in June last year, and when Qi Xianyu was pregnant, it had to be May at the earliest.

In a few months, the baby should be born......

"What do you think?" Seeing Tang Ning riding on the horse in a daze, Gao Shu stepped forward, stretched out his hand and patted Tang Ning's back and asked.

The relationship between Gao Shu and Tang Ning may not have been very good before, but since he joined the Zhenjiang Army and Tang Ning handed over the Pingxia Camp to Gao Shu, Gao Shu's impression of Tang Ning has changed.

Ping Xia Camp's ability, he knew very well. Tang Ning dared to hand it over to himself with confidence, which shows his trust in himself.

In addition, Gao Shu took the lead in the battle, and he also treated his subordinates well on weekdays, so he was unanimously praised by the soldiers of the Pingxia Battalion.

Because of his father, Gao Shu, who often has little self-confidence, found his value in Pingxia Camp. He was grateful to Downing, the leader of all this.

"It's okay......" Downing was high

The tree patted the back and came to its senses. In response, he shook his head in dismay.

Gao Shu said with a smile: "Isn't it that the big war is imminent, and you, the soldiers and horses of the Zhenjiang Army, are nervous?" ”

"I'm nervous? What do I have to be nervous about? Tang Ning asked rhetorically: "It's you who should be nervous, don't forget the task I arranged for you, how can you still have the heart to talk to me leisurely here?" ”

Hearing this, Gao Shu opened his mouth, stiffened his neck and said, "I am confident that I can complete the task!" ”

"You can't say it with your mouth, you have to prove it to me with practical actions." Tang Ning shook his head and said: "That's right, it's really not good, you go and ask Zhang Jingming for some more, you take someone to ride a horse at night, stay away, find a remote place to try."

If you are not familiar with the operation process, you only rely on oral teaching, and when it is really time to use it, it will be too delayed to use it in a hurry. ”

Gao Shu licked his lips and said, "Judge Zhang gave me a lot of that thing, take it to practice once, and it is more than enough to use it three times." It's just that I'm a little reluctant to ......."

"If there is anything you can't reluctant, I will give you as much as you use. Didn't the people sent by the official family pull five carts over this time? I really can't do it, I'll ask the transporter for some more.

It's just the version of the official ration, and it's definitely not as lethal as the one I gave you. ”

Gao Shu nodded and said, "Then, then I'll take someone to practice tonight." ”

Tang Ning smiled: "Go ahead, and ah, the problem of picking and searching that you learned from your father has to be changed." The Pingxia Camp is my key training unit in the Zhenjiang Army, and if there are any new good things in the future, I will first assemble and use them for you.

If it is given to you, and you are reluctant to waste the material and not let the soldiers practice, it is actually no different from wasting. ”

Gao Shu stiffened his neck and said, "I didn't learn from my father!" ”

"I'm too lazy to say you, your father cooks and scoops a scoop of rice, and he would rather be hungry and grab a handful and put it back, and the son born will definitely not be generous."

“……”

Gao Shu walked away in a huff, his anger more annoyed.

70,000 people with grain and grass were not walking fast, and in three days, they had just walked from Lanzhou to Jingyuguan, and they had not walked many miles in total.

However, the urgent letter sent by Ali Gu had already reached You Shixiong's hands.

In Jingyu Pass, You Shixiong called Tang Ning to his resting place, and the two of them lit the candle flame and began to read the letter sent by Ali Gu.

In fact, there is no other meaning in the letter, that is, Ali Gu said that although Qingtang is chaotic, this is also the internal affairs of our Qingtang people, and it has nothing to do with you.

If you feel that it affects you, send some ordnance and armor. With these things, the civil strife in Qingtang can be pacified more quickly......
