Li Yanqing squinted his eyes and looked at the Qiang village not far away, this Qiang village was different from last night's village, it was actually located in a valley.

The entrance to the valley is small, with only a simple gate made of giant wood.

"Isn't it a little confusing to figure out why they built Dazhai in the valley, right?" The partial general Zhang Wei immediately stepped forward and said with a smile, Zhang Wei is a native of Gyeongju and knows the living habits of the Qiang people.

Li Yanqing looked around, there were high ground all around, but this side was a depression with a radius of dozens of miles, "It seems that there is no mountain to rely on!" ”

"Actually, many villages in Gyeongju are built in valleys, but the houses are not built on flat bottoms, but in caves."

"Cave!" Li Yanqing blurted out.

Zhang Wei nodded, "It's a cave!" The Hei Dang Xiang and the Qiang people have lived here for a long time and have learned this way of life, and they have almost no foreign enemies, so they generally do not consider war, and the most important thing for them is to prevent wolves. ”

"But they didn't expect that this would become a turtle in an urn."

The generals behind all laughed, and the sentence of controlling the turtle in the urn was very vivid, Zhang Wei touched his nose and said: "Maybe they are used to it, and they haven't reacted for a while." ”

Li Yanqing pointed to the three wolf smoke burning in the valley with a horsewhip, "They have already reported for help, we will wait patiently, I believe that good news will come from Commander Han soon!" ”

．．．．．．．．

The ambush battle has gradually come to an end, Han Shizhong also chose to ambush the enemy in a three-mile-long valley road, when the enemy army entered the valley road, immediately the Song army blocked the front and rear entrances and exits, the Song army on the mountain beam fired thousands of arrows, only a quarter of an hour, a thousand Qiang cavalry was shot and killed.

"Attack!"

Han Shizhong gave an order, and the shouts of killing on both sides shook the sky, and thousands of Song soldiers rushed down with spears in their hands, surrounding the remaining more than 200 cavalry regiments.

The Qiang cavalry desperately broke through, but the more they fought, the fewer they fought, and gradually all of them perished.

"Commander Qiqi, the enemy army has been completely annihilated, and no one has escaped!"

Han Shizhong nodded, "Ignition and report the news!" ”

Timber had already been piled up on the top of the mountain, and the soldiers quickly lit the firewood that had passed through the fire, and the flames rolled up, and a thick puff of smoke rose into the sky.

The valley where Han Shizhong annihilated the enemy army was only more than ten miles away from Yangwazi, and when the smoke rose into the air, the soldiers on the top of the mountain immediately waved the big flag.

"Commander, the signal is coming!" Several soldiers shouted as they pointed to the large flags on the top of the mountain.

Li Yanqing nodded expressionlessly, turned around and ordered: "Kill in, the man will be killed!" ”

"Kill!"

Zhang Wei roared, and the Song army, which had been gathering momentum for a long time, surged towards the valley like an angry tide that broke the embankment.

．．．．．．．．

In the palace of the Western Xia Dynasty, Li Qianshun was pacing back and forth in the imperial study with his hands in his hands, the situation in the Liao State has been concerned about Li Qianshun in the past few months, making him restless, he hoped that the Liao State could withstand the offensive of the Jin State, for which he did not hesitate to send people to send ten earth-shaking thunder.

But in the end, the Liao State still perished, but no one thought that it would actually perish in the hands of the Song Dynasty, and the rotten big country actually toughened up, which was really unexpected.

However, the Emperor of the Jin State died in Yanjing City, which made Li Qianshun in despair see a glimmer of hope in despair.

After the death of the Jin Emperor, there will be no large-scale military operations in the Jin army for at least two or three years, and while breathing a sigh of relief, Li Qianshun actually gave birth to a bold idea, whether the Western Xia could take the opportunity to swallow the remnants of Xijing and Yelu Yanxi of the Liao State.

Originally, this was just a fleeting thought, but as time went by, this thought did not disappear, but became more and more intense, and Li Qianshun could no longer hold back, so that Richard was solely responsible for planning this matter.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Jin has come down!"

A eunuch's report planned Li Qianshun's thoughts, and Li Qianshun hurriedly said, "Invite him in!" ”

In a coup d'état last year, Richard turned the tide and killed Li Yaoshun, the king of Qin, who attempted to usurp the throne and retain Li Qianshun's throne, thus regaining Li Qianshun's trust and regaining military power.

Brother Richard stepped forward and knelt down on one knee, "Brother Brother, see Brother Huang!" ”

"No need to be polite, hurry up!"

Li Qianshun affectionately pulled Brother Richard to sit down, and said with a smile: "When did you come back?" ”

"Brother Huang, my brother has just entered the city!"

"It's so hard for you."

Brother Richard didn't rush to report the matter of Xijing, he asked first: "I don't know what the situation is on the side of the black party?" ”

Li Qianshun shook his head, "Ye Lifeng disappointed me so much, they have already lost Junzhou and returned to Gyeongju." ”

"Aren't they going well? also defeated 20,000 Song troops, why did the situation take a sharp turn for the worse? ”

"I guess I've met a strong enemy!"

"Who?"

Li Qianshun hesitated and said, "Do you remember that Li Yanqing?" ”

Brother Richard had a complicated expression on his face, how could he not remember that his only defeat was set by this Li Yanqing, he sighed lowly, "It turned out to be him, no wonder the black party lost so quickly, when was Li Yanqing transferred to Shaanxi Road?" ”

"It should be not long after being transferred, he served as the Tongzhi of Jingzhao Mansion, this time he led 10,000 Jingzhao Mansion troops to the north to deal with the black party Xiang, seized the weakness of the scattered tribes of the black party Xiang, defeated each one, and annihilated 3,000 people in a row, the means were extremely ruthless, all the men were killed, and the women and children were sent to Guanzhong as officials and maids, Ye Lifeng couldn't resist it, and he was defeated and returned to Gyeongju."

Brother Richard groaned and said: "If Li Yanqing leads the army north, then it is estimated that the black party will soon perish, if so, what about the southern border?" ”

Li Qianshun got up and walked a few steps with his hands in his hands, and said for a while: "I have already sent an envoy to Bianliang, and I plan to exchange the conditions for canceling the New Year's currency for the stability of the Song-Xia border." ”

Brother Richard was taken aback, the New Year's coins of the Song Dynasty were very important to Western Xia, so it was a bit too much of a concession to give up like this.

Li Qianshun understood Brother Richard's worries, and he said slowly: "I can't bear to let the child catch the wolf, the Song people have always been obsessed with the New Year's coin, I cancel the New Year's coin to give them enough face, I believe they will definitely agree, as long as the Song Dynasty is stabilized, we will have no worries, and if we can destroy Yelu Yanxi, the large amount of wealth he carries can also make up for our losses." ”

"There should be a lot of ministers who can oppose it!"

"I'll convince them!"

Li Qianshun didn't want to dwell too much on this issue, so he waved his hand, "Let's not talk about this, let's talk about your news, I really want to know the situation in Xijing!" ”

Brother Richard hurriedly said: "Xijing has already investigated clearly, Jin Guo pretended to have a garrison of 10,000 troops, but in fact there were only 3,000 troops. ”

Li Qianshun perked up, "Is the news serious?" ”

"Absolutely serious, I heard that the position of the new emperor of the Jin Kingdom is not very stable, and someone wants to seek his position, and he has withdrawn a large number of troops to the Huanglong Mansion."

Li Qianshun rubbed his hands excitedly, "How is the situation over there Yelu Yanxi?" ”

Infighting also broke out on Yelu Yanxi's side, and Empress Dowager Xiao, who fled from Yanjing, was killed by Yelu Yanxi, which caused Yelu Dashi's dissatisfaction, and as a result, Yelu Yanxi attacked first and took away Yelu Dashi's army, and Yelu Dashi only led 200 people to flee to the west.

"How many troops does Yelu Dashi have now?"

"There are about 40,000 people, and they are also eyeing Xijing."

Li Qianshun saw a sly smile flashing in Brother Richard's eyes, so he smiled and said, "I know you have a plan, don't hold it, just say it and let me hear it!" ”

"Brother Huang, I think we can use the excuse of helping Yelu Yanxi capture Xijing to lead his army south, and then wait for the opportunity to annihilate it in one fell swoop."

Li Qianshun groaned and said: "But Yelu Yanxi is not stupid, he won't let us send many troops, after all, there are only 3,000 gold soldiers in Xijing." ”

"Of course I know, we sent 100,000 troops, pretending to be 10,000, as long as we do it secretly, Yelu Yanxi will not find out, in addition, we still have a fragrant bait in our hands, I am not afraid that Yelu Yanxi will not take the bait."

"Earthquake Thunder!"

Li Qianshun blurted out, and the two brothers glanced at each other and laughed together.

"I heard that this earth-shattering thunder was made by Li Yanqing, but it's a pity that the emperor of the Song Dynasty didn't pay attention to it and cheapened us for nothing."

"It's not that I don't pay attention to it, the Song Dynasty still has a thorough study of firearms, but it can't completely rely on firearms, take Yelu Yanxi as an example, if you give him a hundred earth-shaking thunders, he will still be destroyed by the Jin Kingdom, the key is still people, and the army's good fighting is the magic weapon to win."

"Brother Huang is right, at the beginning, we also considered using Yelu Yanxi as a barrier, but later found that he couldn't do it at all, rather than cheapening the Jin Kingdom, it was better for us to swallow him."

Li Qianshun patted his brother's shoulder, "Go!" Let go of your hands and feet, and I hope to hear good news from you soon. ”

"The younger brother will definitely live up to the trust of the imperial brother!"

Brother Richard saluted and left, Li Qianshun fell into contemplation again, he also knew that he was taking a risk, once the Jin Kingdom solved the interior, the next thunder blow must be Western Xia, if it was a year ago, Li Qianshun really didn't dare to compete with the Jin Kingdom, but since they successfully developed the Heaven-Shaking Thunder, he finally had the confidence to argue with the Jin Kingdom, 'Even Yan Agu died under the Heaven-Shaking Thunder, what are you afraid of?' ’

Thinking of this, Li Qianshun's waist gradually straightened.
