378 The allies are coming
"Ganzhou! Brother Wang is not to the east? "Wang Houdu was almost confused by one accident after another, this horse is really weird, and he never does things according to common sense.
The main force of Western Xia is all in the east, but he wants to go west, mentioning Ganzhou, this has to be the territory of the Tang Dynasty, can he really get it back? How to manage it when you get it back?
"Relying on this little bit of soldiers and horses in the hands of this official, going east is tantamount to asking for hardship, is it possible that Brother Wang still thinks that this official is dying slowly, and wants Li Xian and his ilk to have another shortage of food and grass, and it will be too late to wait for the Western Xia soldiers and horses to die with this official? Brother Wang, this official is not a fool, this kind of little trick knows it. If you have the opportunity to see Wang Xianggong and Sima Xianggong, you will tell them a word for your official: It's not that the time has not come! ”
"This official has never been a broad-minded person, and what the ancients said is basically a description of me. Don't fool me with the overall situation, no overall situation is worth the value of the official's life. That's it, it's good to go! ”
Hong Tao's impression of Wang Hou is not bad, but he still can't help but be angry when he talks about what happened before. Wang Hou also understood the meaning of pretending to be confused in this matter, and he didn't mention it from beginning to end for several days, it seems that everyone wants to fool the past without mentioning it in black and white.
Where did this happen, I almost killed myself, and then I clapped my hands and was fine? Now I don't have the power to retaliate, but it doesn't mean that I'm stupid.
The horse was angry, but Wang Hou was not surprised, he was going to be scolded this time. Emotionally speaking, the horse saved his father's life, and he scolded two sentences. Theoretically speaking, people are fighting for the country in the front, and there are people in the DPRK who secretly harm others in the back. Don't talk about scolding, if you use Wang Shao's temper, it is estimated that you will have to play with a knife.
Wang Shu was just angry, he didn't even scold, Wang Hou felt that he had picked up a big bargain, benevolence and righteousness. As for whether the horse wants to go west or east, he can't care, although he still has the name of a staff department, but the staff officer only has the right to suggest and not the right to decide.
Now even the emperor has no decision-making power, and the colt said that he didn't see himself at all, so he couldn't go back to reveal the old bottom, which is what it means to completely tear his face.
Just before Wang Hou left, he saw a supply convoy from Weiqiao Town for the first time, and then silently sentenced the Western Xia army in Ganzhou to death. This cart of rockets and giant crossbows stretched for several miles, and there was no end in sight.
He only knows a little less than the new army about the attack power of the rocket, presumably Liangzhou City, Gansu and Baima are all in the hands of the new army, and these weapons are the root cause.
Just looking at it was not enough, Wang Hou licked his face again and found the colt and put forward a request to enter the camp to study. He wanted to follow the commander of the New Army and intern in the New Army for a few days to see how the New Army was equipped and how it went out on the march.
"Don't just look at it, you have to record it, this is the experience that the officers and soldiers have exchanged their lives for, and it will be in vain if you don't pass it on. It's a pity that there are almost no people who are willing to deign to come to learn like Brother Wang, and Lord Li Xian Li didn't even ask, and when he saw that Liangzhou City was destroyed, he walked away like fleeing from the plague. ”
Hong Tao was no longer angry, not only agreed with Wang Hou to go to the army to spy on his reality, but also allowed him to record, whatever he wanted, the more detailed the better. If he can persuade Emperor Shenzong to reorganize a few forbidden armies according to the cat and the tiger, he will be willing to dismantle the Wang Da and send them over as instructors.
But this was almost impossible, and the courtiers would never agree to the emperor putting his hand in the army again, and it would be troublesome enough to have such an agent of his own.
Now they are doing everything possible to bring down themselves, otherwise they have won such a big credit for Liangzhou, how could they not see the will of promotion and wealth for several months.
There was not much time left for Wang Hou to practice and record, and in early September, a large group of soldiers and horses suddenly came from the west, and the dust raised obscured the sky. At first, Wang Hou thought that the Western Xia army was coming, and wanted to take his army into Liangzhou City to help the horses defend the city together. But after seeing that the new army didn't react, he could only stay in the camp outside the city, watching the smoke and dust in the distance The soles of his shoes were almost soaked with sweat.
"Brother Wang came to Liangzhou to visit this time, and some of the official's words were more harsh, and he also looked at Haihan. After tonight, the official will lead the team to the west, and Liangzhou City will be handed over to Miao to command the town to guard. No matter how the imperial court talks with Western Xia, please tell the boss that Liangzhou must not be lost, remember to remember! ”
This night, Hong Tao set up a banquet in the new city to entertain Wang Hou, which can be regarded as a farewell banquet. In addition to several generals in the new army, there were also Miao Kui, who had just arrived from Huangzhou, and a middle-aged man dressed as a Tibetan man.
His name is Tsering Gondo, and he is the younger brother of Xi Luosa, but he is not a fellow mother. The family of the Fan people is similar to that of the party members, all kinds of marriages, and the special relationship between the generations is not chaotic.
Regardless of whether it is chaotic or not, Tsering Gondo is indeed Xiluosa's younger brother, and he has been by Xiluosa's side since Tongchuan Fort, and he is one of the right-hand men, and he is also one of the most fateful. Xi Luosa and two of his younger brothers were killed by rockets, and he really didn't have any resentment about it, and he never mentioned it since.
Tsering Gongduo is the reinforcement sent by Xiluosa, with 6,000 Qingtang cavalry, ready to go west with Lord Shuaisi. He could send out as many soldiers and horses, and even personally commanded the troops, but was rejected by Hong Tao.
Qingtang is currently completely controlled by Xi Luosa, and this has to be thanks to Jiang Erlang's special forces. They don't use head-on combat, but assassination and raids are a spirit.
The first person to be poisoned by Jiang Erlang was Dong Yu's own son Bully, who was shot to death on the march. In order to ambush Jiang Erlang and more than a dozen of his subordinates, they climbed the cliff for two days, and lurked on the cold plateau for three days before waiting for the team of bullies.
After the blow was successful, he immediately climbed down the cliff along the rope, and he couldn't cut it if he wanted to, the top of the rope was not on the cliff, and it was more than ten meters away. There was nothing they could do but throw a few rocks, and they watched as the grass-clad creatures disappeared into the clouds in the middle of the cliff.
A few days after Ding died, the two clan leaders of Dong Yu's mother were poisoned again, but they didn't touch anything except drinking water, and they couldn't tell if they were poisoned by the gods of the clan.
As soon as these three men died, the forces opposing Xiluosa basically collapsed. The heir is gone, and speaking of which, the bloodline of Xi Luoza is really the closest to the throne.
The leader is gone, and more and more tribes are turning to Xilosa, because he can bring iron tools, food, and better income to the tribe, and who will have trouble with money.
But Jiang Erlang didn't think so, he suggested in the name of Lord Shuai Si that Xi Luosa should not stop, first hold a tribal meeting, and then kill several unreliable leaders in front of a group of tribal leaders in the meeting! Then send troops to surrender the opponent's ethnic group, and the population, livestock, and pasture will be rewarded to the first supporting group, so that they can sit in a secure position.
Xi Luosa let Jiang Erlang deceive, thinking that it was really Lord Shuaisi's advice, so what are you waiting for, this time he killed eight clan leaders, and at the same time destroyed eight tribes.
When Hong Tao heard about this, he greeted Jiang Erlang's eight ancestors in his heart. The bad ideas are all made by themselves, and in case Xi Luosa can't rule in the future, he has to blame himself for being too bad at the beginning.
But things have already happened, it's useless to complain, you have to be encouraged, say that the killing is right, don't have any psychological burden. In the future, as long as it can really bring benefits to everyone, no one will remember how many people died and how many clans were destroyed.
It's not enough to just say it, but you have to tell Miao Kui to open the border between Huangzhou and Qingtang, so that the Qingtang caravan can go to Huangzhou to purchase food and farm tools. By the way, I will deal with them some of the armor weapons eliminated by the forbidden army, which can be regarded as an endorsement for Xi Luosa's bragging.
Taking advantage of Lord Shuaisi so much, it is impossible to take it for nothing, and sooner or later you will have to pay the price. Xi Luosa's price came relatively quickly, no, Jiang Erlang took out another thing. This time it was really written by Lord Shuaisi, and the handwriting Xi Luosa knew, and there was no second family in the Great Song Dynasty, so it was fake.
The content is very simple, Xiluosa sent troops, part of them followed the new army to the west, and part of them stayed between Huangzhou and Ganzhou to protect the passage, and the grain and grass had to be borne by themselves.
What about the benefits? The advantage is that the Huangzhou Workshop can provide a part of the rockets to Xi Luosa, so that he can train the Qingtang New Army by himself, and when he feels that the training is good, he will send troops to the west.
