Xu Ping listened to books in his previous life, and there were often young generals who were very handsome, but they were superb in martial arts, able to write and martial arts, and all the advantages of the whole world were concentrated on one person, such as Yang Wenguang. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but the reality is that Yang Wenguang is a relatively silent man, and he is not at all similar to the young general with red lips and white teeth in the storyteller's mouth. But this person who came today is like coming out of the book that Xu Ping listened to in his previous life, he is in his twenties, handsome and handsome, skilled in bows and horses, and has written several military books such as "Jumi Tujing" at a young age, and is favored by many ministers and is a masterpiece for a while. Coming to the northwest, Zhao Zhen specially gave the imperial weapon battle, led 10,000 soldiers, and allowed him to choose his own favoritism, which was comparable to the treatment of a side marshal all the way.

This person is Zhao Xun.

Zhao Xun is the eldest son of Zhao Zhen, the deputy deployment of Xiangzhou and Huanqing Road, who has followed his father in the army since he was a child, and is smart and studious. During the Northwest Rebellion, he was recommended by Song Zhen to be the capital eunuch of Huanqing Road. Because he was young and had not been in the army for a long time, Zhao Xun resigned from the post of capital supervisor and only served as the chief general of Longgancheng.

Young, studious and energetic, and modest, such a general is liked by any coach, and Xu Ping is the same. However, Xu Ping clearly knew that he was Lu Yijian's person. promoted all the way, although Zhao Zhen personally tried it out, but it was Lu Yijian who pushed him at a critical time. This time he came to the northwest, and Song Zhen was also entrusted by Lu Yijian to recommend him.

Human beings are social animals, and there are always those who are close and those who are distant, which is the normal feeling of human beings. There will always be small circles, but if everything is considered from the small circle, then this small circle is not destined to last long. Even if he knew that Zhao Xun was Lu Yijian's person, the temporary subordination of the Deshun Army to Qin Fenglu this time was also related to him, but Xu Ping would not exclude him because of this.

Zhao Xun followed behind Liu Jianji, and together with Liu Hu, he saluted Xu Ping and sang a promise.

Xu Ping returned the salute and said: "This time I recruited you to Qinzhou, according to the decree of the cardinal mansion, passing through Xifan. Let me make it clear, this matter is confidential, if any of them leak out and make a mistake, the sword on my waist will not spare people! ”

The three of them crossed their hands and responded solemnly.

"Okay, Shuai Fu Meeting!" After speaking, Xu Pingdang returned to his official hall.

At this time, it was late September, the weather was gradually dry, the grass and trees were withered and yellow, and for the border state army, autumn prevention was an urgent matter. This time, he recruited all his subordinate generals and officials to Qinzhou, and Xu Ping used the name of Fangqiu.

After entering the Shuai's mansion, everyone sat down in turn. Xu Ping sat on the top and said to Wang Kai: "You first tell me about the general outline of the Yu Tibetan Department this time, and several generals are new to the road, and they don't know a lot of things. ”

Wang Kai promised, and was about to speak, Zhao Xun got up and crossed his hands and said: "Jie Shuai, there will be something at the end, you should report it first!" ”

Xu Ping motioned for Wang Kai to pause, and said to Zhao Xun: "If you have something, you might as well talk about it." ”

"The last general guarded Longgancheng, and once covered and killed Mu Ningfan thieves, and there were many gains. Just a few days ago, someone in the Tibetan tribe who was attached to the quality said that the eldest son of the eldest son lived in the niche valley and had no place to belong. Dang Xiang Hao thief once made people tempted, but Blind Felt didn't want to be a thief, and the Niche Valley Fan Department who took him in also had an enmity with Dang Xiang, and Blind Felt seemed to intend to belong to the imperial court. ”

Xu Ping nodded, motioned for Zhao Xun to sit down, and said, "This is a good thing, if the blind felt is attached, then a nail will be inserted in the south of Mabit Mountain." After we finish our discussion, you and Liu Zhiyuan will stay together and discuss the matter in detail. ”

Xu Ping's side of the seed Shiheng whispered: "Fan Qiang is deceitful, handsome, you should be cautious in this matter." ”

Xu Ping nodded: "Prudence is naturally cautious, but this opportunity cannot be let go in vain." The blind felt fell out with the babblings, and many of the Tibetan departments in the Hehuang area could not tolerate him, so they had to throw himself into the Tibetan part of the niche valley. The Niche Valley was originally one of the six valleys of the Hexi Fan Department, and the party attacked and destroyed the Xiliang and the Six Valleys and the Fan Department had a lot of grievances, and this matter was credible nine times out of ten. The Liugu Fan Department united with Liangzhou, and the main force was originally half of the Qiang people of the party and half of the Qiang. Yuan Hao attacked and destroyed Xiliang, and most of the Qiang people in the party had already defected to Hao thieves, and most of the remaining Tibetan tribes were led by their leader Duo Governor, and they were returned to the Gang Commander. Only small tribes such as the Shrine Valley were at a loss, and some of them entered Qinzhou. When the Tibetans occupied the land west of the river, they were taken captive as slaves, and for more than a hundred years, their language and customs have been no different from those of the Tibetans. But although the customs have changed, their hearts are still towards the imperial court, and being able to return to the rule of the imperial court is something that these people have been asking for for many years, and we can't cold their hearts. ”

Liu Jian said: "Jieshuai is reasonable, we can't treat the Mo tribe as an ordinary Fanqiang. When the Liugu Fan Department first rose, they were very obedient to the imperial court, and even robbed the dynasty to buy horses to make Ding Weiqing the commander, which shows that they have always been committed to the Central Plains. ”

Hexi is the hometown of the Han and Tang dynasties, and has been a Han settlement area for nearly a thousand years, with many Han people. The Central Plains was unable to pass through the west of the river, and most of these Han people were plundered as slaves by the Tibetan nobles. The Liugu tribe in Hexi is different from the Tubo people in Hehuang, and the two major forces there are the Dangxiang Qiang and the Momo tribe. At this time, most of the party items have been attached to Yuan Hao, and most of the others who are incompatible with the party items have voted for it.

It has always been an empty name in the Hehuang area, controlled by other big forces, until it took in the remnants of the Liugu tribe, and then it has the capital to stand on its own. When most of the Tibetan tribes adjacent to the party were already openly or covertly attached to the party, he resolutely resisted, not only because he did not want to be under the party, but more importantly, because of the will of his subordinate forces. These remnants of the Liugu tribe had a deep enmity with the party, and they were first betrayed by the party of the alliance, lured wolves into the house and lured the party soldiers, and then were killed very badly. The father of the Duo Governor, Pan Luozhi, the most prominent leader of the Six Grains and Tibetan Tribes, was booby-trapped by the Alliance's party Xiang Qiang.

Xu Ping didn't believe in his loyalty to the imperial court, and he didn't believe in blind felt, but he had no reason not to believe in the remnants of the Momo tribe in Hexi. These people were originally Han Chinese, and the five dynasties of the late Tang Dynasty were oppressed by the surrounding Qiang for more than a hundred years, and it was a dream of many people to be able to return to the rule of the Central Plains. Oppressed by the party, when the Liugu Fan tribe united, he didn't even want to put out his own leader, but asked the Great Song Dynasty to send officials. For the Great Song Dynasty, Hexi was beyond the reach of the whip, and it was also a good thing to send an official to the past, but the request of the Liugu Fan Department was rejected. But they did not give up, and forcibly robbed the Song Dynasty's horse buyer there to make Ding Weiqing the commander.

It doesn't matter what he thinks, maybe he still wants to vote for the party. But he is not the real leader of the Shrine Valley Fan Tribe, this tribe that has a deep enmity with the party is mainly composed of the Mo people, and their will is what Xu Ping has to consider.

This matter is important, and the general will not talk about it for the time being, and then Xu Ping will personally deal with it with Liu Jian and Zhao Xun afterwards.

Wang Kai saw Xu Ping signaling himself to start, uncovered the cloth on the huge map behind him, and said: "This is the geography of the mountains and rivers in the Qinzhou area, as well as the places occupied by the various tribes. The black ones on the top are those that the Shuai Mansion knows to have voted for the party either explicitly or covertly, the red ones are loyal to the court, and the green ones are wavering. As you can see, it is roughly bounded by the Wating River and the Wei River, west of the Wating River and north of the Wei River, black and green are roughly half, and there is basically no red. Yu Zanghua Ma dared to make trouble, which was to see the emptiness of the imperial court's power in that area. According to the estimation of the Shuai Mansion, Yu Zang Hua Ma came to attack this time, when he was assembled in the West Envoy City, walked the valley, reached the valley, entered the Sandu River, and invaded Fuqiang Village. Or take the Qingji River, enter the Wating River Valley Road, and invade Qinzhou. There are two very important passes along the way, one is Hwacheon Pass, and from there you enter the Sandu River Valley Road. The other is a closed gate further south. Huachuan Pass is deep into the Tibetan Department, the soldiers and horses are difficult to hide, we don't care, the key to this battle is to close the door. ”

Cao Keming said: "The closed gate has been set up since the two Han Dynasty, and the ground should be rushed, but I have heard of it." ”

"Cao Duhu is right, the closed door is the main road of the north road of Jincheng from the Han and Tang Dynasties, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is an important place. There is a three-way intersection, the soldiers come south, where you can choose to take the Qingji River, or go south along the Sandu River Valley. The medicine family that occupies Qingjichuan has just been attached to the country a few months ago, and there has been no change in the past few months, and they are very deferential to the imperial court. If you want to come to Yuzanghua Mali grammar, it is difficult to impress the medicine family. The Shuai Mansion will pay close attention there, and if the Yao family is co-opted by Yuzang Huama, the Guiming Shenwu Army will send troops to raze its clan tent and occupy Qingji River. All in all, it is necessary to let Yuzang Huama take the road of Sanduchuan. ”

Liu Jianji said: "If the thieves take the Qingji River into the Wating River, there are many soldiers and horses in the imperial court along the way, why don't you let them go?" ”

Xu Ping said: "Let me tell me." The Shuaifu arranged this way because this time it was not about defending and not letting Yu Zang Huama attack, but on completely annihilating the attacking enemy. There are many passes along the Watingchuan road north of Qinzhou, and there are heavy troops stationed in Maji Pass, Suoyang Pass, and Foerxia Pass. If they want to go here, blocking it is not conducive to destroying the enemy, and abandoning the pass is easy to arouse the suspicion of the thieves, so the battlefield is set in the Sandu River Valley, which is not guarded by soldiers and horses. It is to let all the thieves enter the valley smoothly, we will guard both ends, and one is not allowed to run! ”

"Opening the road, luring the enemy deep, and setting up an ambush to annihilate the enemy, although this plan is good, it must be arranged very carefully." Cao Keming looked at Liu Jianji and Sang Yi beside him, and felt a little unsure. The plan is a good plan, but the requirements for the organization and discipline of the army are relatively high, and the armies participating in the war must cooperate closely. And many of the failures of the Song army are bad in this cooperation.

Xu Ping said with a smile: "Don't worry, the Shuai Mansion will definitely make careful arrangements this time to ensure that nothing goes wrong." Originally, this time I passed south of Mabitshan, and I didn't want you to fight, so you should lead your troops to defend the south of the Wei River and not let the Tibetan troops there take the opportunity to make trouble. Later, I thought that in the first battle of Jialuchuan, the party booby-trapped Cao Duxun, and you and Hao thieves had a deep hatred like the sea. First fight Yuzang Huama battle, out of the evil anger in the heart. ”
