Wang Ju also had to do it.

Ali Gu had already summoned Wen Xixin three times, and the last time his tone was very angry.

Wen Xixin will not go to Qingtang City again, Ali Gu already has a reason to do something to Wen Xixin, and the Luo family in the northeast of Gu Miaochuan, the spoon family in the south, and the Longshu family in the northwest are all subservient to the force of Ali Gu, if they are surrounded on all sides, the Wen family can be wiped out in an instant.

Faced with this dangerous situation, Wen Xixin sent envoys three times to beg Wang Ju to send troops, and he almost came to Hezhou to beg in person.

However, Wang Ju did not send troops to Gumiaochuan, but marched to the south of Hezhou with the three armies.

Like the original Suizhou, the Song Dynasty did not control the southwest of Hezhou, at most affecting the surrounding areas of Nanchuan Village, and now it is only at the southern end of Hezhou, on the traffic throat from Hezhou to Taozhou of the Jishi Army, a Zhucheng City was built.

At the same time, Chongyi also said that Zhu Cheng sent troops.

However, this time, the use of troops was not mainly by force, but mainly by propaganda.

Those who are sincere to the Song Dynasty will not use troops against them, but there is one condition, each department will draw one out of three and go south with the Song army. But this army went south, not expecting them to cooperate with the Song army to attack Huangzhou Tubo, and Wang Ju was not at ease.

It can only be said that there is no problem in using them to deal with Western Xia in the future.

Not only did they not expect them to fight, nor did they expect them to escort food, but the role of the army was to serve as guides and engineers, build bridges and roads, and build forts on various communication arteries with prisoners of war.

Even if the entire Huangzhou region is taken in the future, garrisoning troops is inevitable. However, it will be dominated by permanent border troops, supplemented by three percent of the forbidden soldiers, who will be stationed in some unreclaimed checkpoints. For example, Li Xian is in the newly built Jingyu Pass.

There is a cultivated land in the surrounding area. All of them moved from the inner abdomen of Shaanxi Province to related Porjet and archers. As a permanent frontier army. In addition to the salary of more than a dozen soldiers a year, these border troops also have five border expenses on the plateau. In addition, each border soldier will also set aside more than two hectares of cultivated land as their private land, and the grain harvested, in addition to leaving it for their own family to eat and drink, can sell the rest to the imperial court for the consumption of grain and grass for the forbidden soldiers, if the official price is low. They also have the right to sell them to the surrounding Tibetans.

Guan Jian is more than two hectares of cultivated land, that is, the border soldiers who came to the border within four generations, no matter how many children they have, they don't have to worry about food and clothing.

And if there is a war, immediately enter the fort, it seems dangerous, as long as you are smart, safety is also fully guaranteed.

Although it is located on the plateau and surrounded by Tubo people, Shaanxi is forced by Western Xia. There are a lot of people living in extreme poverty, and this treatment is still very attractive.

In fact, before the king's huge army was sent. In the rear, some strong archers, strong men and volunteers are being organized, ready to come and hand over the forts.

Then the standing of these forts will undoubtedly divide the entire river into scattered areas, which cannot be connected into pieces, and the number of Ding Zhuang in each area will decrease, and there will not be many people who dare to rebel.

The Song army went south, and there were expensive species, Wang Ju came, and the "species" was not expensive, could it be that Zhao Ji came down in person?

To have force, the previous successive victories have proved the strength of the Song army.

If you want a policy to have a policy, you want a deterrent and a deterrent force, Wang Ju is not a weak master.

In fact, it also proves that Wang Ju's methods have never been weak.

Not all tribes are well-informed, or value this "species", and the three tribes have been ignoring Wang Ju's orders. Wang Ju sent people to summon them twice, but there was no third time, and Liu Zhongwu led the army to personally kill the three tribes. In an instant, the three tribes were conquered, all Ding Zhuang were executed, and the women, children, old and young, were scattered and sent to other ministries.

This tyrannical method silenced the tribes, and there was almost no resistance, and the Song army controlled the Jiucheng Hezhou region, the southernmost part of which was the vast mountainous area, and it also reached the boundary of the Longqi Department, and the Song army stopped. Wang Ju led the army to recover Dangbiao City, Danan City, Xihe Road, wouldn't it be normal to recover Hezhou, would it be possible to let Ali Gu follow the Jishi Army and the south of Hezhou and invade Taozhou at any time?

But it was this recovery that made Ali Gu worried.

It's not that I'm worried that Wang Ju will use troops against Qingtang City, on the contrary, the Song army is going south and getting farther and farther away from Qingtang City.

What worries him is that it is farther away, the Stone Army!

The strongest appeal of the Jishi Army is undoubtedly the Solid Yong Throat Division, but they are not the strongest tribe, otherwise they would not have let Ghost Zhang take the Guozhuang Department to expel them from Xige City.

The strongest tribe was a tribe that many Song Dynasty officials didn't care too much about, the Longwei tribe.

Since the late Tang Dynasty, Diezhou has become the gathering place of the Tubo people, after Tang Xuanzong recovered the Danzhou, the Wuzhou Danzhou was combined into a tiered state, as for Diezhou, it is now in the south of Taozhou. This part of Tibet is also called the Terrace Stacking Tibet.

One of them is called Longkui Department, also called Longbu Department, drifting, nomadic people, chasing water and grass and nomadism, this is also normal, they once drifted to Qinzhou Yongning Village to live, absorb the Central Plains civilization, began to grow stronger.

After migrating back, they successively absorbed the small tribes, and now their sphere of influence reached Jiezhou in the southeast, and the range of Jiuzhaigou in later generations reached Fengtixia in the east, and controlled the southern area of Taozhou in the north, and reached the Songfan grassland in the south, that is, the large grassland swamp of the Red Army's 25,000-mile long march, and the west reached the eastern part of Jishi Mountain.

In order to enhance his strength, he deliberately migrated a part of the Longkui tribe and placed them in the north of Huangshui on the side of Zongge City.

The Longqi Department on Huangshui's side is not what Ali Gu is worried about.

However, the entire Longqi tribe is a tribe that supports the Zampu faction, Ali Gu is a Uighur, and is not Dong Yu's biological son, because the Longqi tribe also rejects Ali Gu, and the ghost chapter expels Xibawen from Xige City, Xibawen took a part of his clan and son, and defected to this Longqi tribe, which is now in the west of the Longqi tribe and under the east Jishi Mountain. As for the original tribes of Xijishi Mountain, they were replaced by the Guozhuang Department and became the new leaders of each tribe.

But Ghost Zhang was killed by Chongyi. The appeal of the fruit farm department is not strong. Worse yet, the 20,000 soldiers led by the ghost chapter. They are all from the tribes under the West Stone Mountain, and after the battle of Taoshui, only a few thousand people can escape back, which makes the tribes suffer heavy losses, so the tribes are very resentful of the Guozhuang Department.

In fact, at this time, the various departments under the Jishi Mountain have no leader, and as for the Guozhuang Department, it is a good thing not to settle accounts with you.

Wang Ju took Jiucheng Hezhou. It is equivalent to being connected with this Longqi department. If Wang Ju supports it, Xibawen leads the rest of his forces, as well as the warriors of the Longwei tribe, then he will quickly unify the various tribes of Jishishan and Henan.

And Wang Ju's troops have arrived in Danan City, and there is only a Yellow River across Kuozhou. If the two forces continue to join forces, one represents the Song Dynasty and the other represents the orthodox bloodline of Zampu, Ali Gu will be in danger.

So he had to divide a force and go to Kuozhou.

In fact, Ali Gu wanted to do this, which was completely wrong.

Throughout. Wang Ju didn't want to join forces with Xibawen, on the contrary. What he wants to join forces with most now is the Guozhuang Department...... It's really the fruit farm, but there is a long-term plan for doing so.

As soon as the ghost chapter dies, the Guozhuang Department will be like that, and there is no need to be afraid.

Xibawen has the name of orthodoxy, and he has six sons who are very capable, and he will inevitably lead his army to the west and take back the city of Xige. If Xibawen did this, Wang Ju would send an envoy to win over the Guozhuang Department and prevent Xibawen from going west.

Don't look at the fact that the Longyi Department is very powerful, Wang Ju once seriously asked Chongyi to investigate.

Because of the absorption of advanced civilization from Qinzhou, it created the strength of the Longwei Department, but also because of this civilization, the Longwei Department began to split and was divided into two parts, east and west. The Donglong tribe had united with the Da Luo Sumujia tribe in Jiezhou, and captured Fengtie Village in the tenth year of Xining, killing many officials and civilians, and then was repelled by officers and soldiers.

But that's in the past, between nations, between friends and foes forever, and so are borders.

Ali Gu and Ghost Zhang invaded Taozhou, and the Longyi Department stayed in the south of Taozhou, watching from the wall, and then the Seed Friendship broke the Tubo army, and the Long Gang Department felt scared and sent an envoy to meet the Seed Friendship. Later, Wang Ju went west, summoned the chiefs of various tribes to gather in Hezhou, and also summoned some leaders of the Donglong tribe.

In addition to the East Long, there is also a Xihai Long, that is, the West Long, starting from the southwest of Taozhou, all the way to Jishi Mountain, continuing to live a nomadic life, Xibawen is attached to this Long.

As long as Xibawen can't go west, it will be trapped here, the northeast is Taozhou, the northwest is Hezhou, the west is Jishi Mountain, the southwest is Jishi Mountain, Bayan Kala Mountain, and the southeast is the terrible grassland. Then no matter how much Zampu blood there is in Xibawen, it won't be able to set off the storm.

In this way, there is no one with the blood of Zampu in the entire future Huangzhou Road, the dragons have no leader, and the various ethnic groups cannot be unified and united, so that the Song Dynasty can be governed smoothly.

Ali Gu made a serious miscalculation......

Moreover, Tibet is an alliance system of various ethnic groups, and in wartime orders are sent with golden arrows, and the tribes send their children to assemble to participate in the war, and the children and soldiers of all ethnic groups return immediately after the war.

Wen Xixin didn't know what arrangements Wang Ju had, so he was bitter at this time, because Ali Gu finally used troops against him.

Just when Wen Xi's heart was in danger, the deadly killing finally appeared.

In fact, Wang Ju's army went south, and this army was not to deal with Ali Gu for the time being, but mainly to open up the connection with the Jishi Army and prevent Xiba Wen from going west to Xige City, and at the same time, it was also to confuse Ali Gu.

Ali Gu officially sent troops to Wen Xixin, and the Song army began to move, not on Wang Ju's side, but in Lanzhou.

Wang Wenyu and Li Xian gathered 30,000 soldiers and horses, and the troops were not many, but they were all the strongest soldiers of the Song Dynasty, including Wang Guangzu, Wang En, Liu Fa, Guo Jingxiu, and Jia Yan.

The 30,000 most elite Song troops went into battle lightly, only brought a small amount of dry food, and went all the way west along the Huangshui, all the way up the mountains and mountains, and crossed the Haopu River and the Cheese River, and went to the thirsty Donkey Ridge.

The speed was very fast, and even Ali Gu had just gotten the news, and the 30,000 Song troops had killed the thirsty donkey ridge, and they had all halved the alliance between Ali Gu and the Lian clan, and came to the rescue. Wen Xixin didn't dare to play tricks. Regardless of the encirclement of the coalition forces of the Sho family and the spoon family in the rear. With all his army, he swooped down on the army of Argi on the west.

After several soldiers and horses fought fiercely for two or three days, Aligu's three armies collapsed, and this battle caused Aligu to lose seven or eight thousand soldiers and horses. However, his main army was still there, Wang Wenyu and Li Xian did not chase after him, and built a pass defense in the thirsty donkey ridge, and allocated a road of soldiers and horses to the east. Hurriedly surrendered.

Wang Wenyu combined several troops and horses and pounced on Ba Jincheng. At the same time, Wang Ju waved his army across the river and pounced on the city of Zhidang and Wachui Village, it was difficult to attack Bajin City from the east, but attacking Bajin City from the rear, Bajin City did not have so many natural dangers.

By mid-August, the so-called strongest natural danger Bajin City was forcibly conquered by the Song army, and after hearing the news, the Xinmu and Guna tribes crossed the Cheese River and defected to the Song Dynasty.

In fact, from now on, half of Huangzhou has been taken by the Song Dynasty. The scope that Ali Gu can control is only the side of Qingtang City, as well as Xihuangzhou and Kuozhou. and a theoretical army of stones.

This is the reason why the Song army crossed the Yellow River some time ago and launched an attack on the Zhuoluo Military Division of Western Xia.

It is easier to travel from Lanzhou to Gumiao River and from Nanhuangshui River. But in that case, at most, they are in one place with Wen Xixin's soldiers and horses, and under the siege on all sides, even if they can defeat Ali Gu, it will be a miserable victory.

Therefore, the army could only march from the Beihuang River, but this road was very difficult, and the north was the officers and soldiers of the Zhuo Luo Military Division of Western Xia.

The Western Xia were now in alliance with Aligu, and as long as the Western Xia mobilized a force of troops and horses and cut off the road in a dangerous place, the Song army would not be able to move west. Therefore, the Western Xia army was expelled from the Zhuo Luo Military Division in front of the front, and they retreated to Xiliang Mansion, and the surrounding forces were mobilized by Ali Gu to clear Wen Xixin, and the Western Xia could not support, and there was no strong force around to snipe, so the Song army could smoothly advance westward.

And Ali Gu led the clans to encircle and suppress the Wen clan, which was equivalent to invisibly weakening the power of the clans, so that the Song army arrived in this area, which was also conducive to rule. With the exception of the Battle of Thirsty Donkey Ridge, this line of work was a matter of precise calculation, marching non-stop, but the effect was no less significant.

Wang Ju ordered the three armies to stop and build forts one after another, and at the same time successively reorganized the archers and Baojie troops transferred from the rear into various commanders and stationed in each fort.

He also ordered the prisoners of war to join forces with the local people to build roads, which were too choled.

Wang Ju slowly came to Huangzhou City, and summoned the leaders of all ethnic groups to come and gather, not entirely to appease, but also a process of testing, whether Ali Gu's golden arrow herald worked, or the court's order worked.

If Wang Ju's order is not obeyed, the next thing is a violent suppression.

Moreover, all kinds of governance in the future also require the cooperation of these tribes, Wang Ju did not dare to use their subordinate soldiers to deal with Ali Gu, but he could use their subordinate soldiers to recruit Western Xia.

At this time, Wang Ju received a handwritten letter from Ali Gu, which said that I was wrong, I should not be an enemy of the Song Dynasty, and hoped that China would withdraw from Huangzhou.

Wang Ju sneered after reading it, and then said twice.

You must know that Wang Ju's style of playing with the fortress is safe, but it also forces Ali Gu into a corner, but this is all piled up with mountains and seas of money.

Moreover, several lines of soldiers and horses almost gathered nearly 100,000 Song troops, and there were 30,000 or 40,000 Baojie archers in the rear with their families, constantly migrating to Hehuang, just the daily consumption of grain and grass is an astronomical amount.

Hit this and let me withdraw my troops? Are you a fool of me?

And the timing is really good at this time, such as Huangzhou, Tong Guan took Huangzhou City, and it took the effort of the Nine Dragons and Two Tigers. But now, because of Wen Xixin's cooperation, Huangzhou was taken without spending a single soldier. There is also the dispersion of the hearts of the people of Ali Gu...... If Dong Yu is still alive, the support of the imperial court is not large, even if Wang Shao uses troops in Huangzhou, the victory or defeat is only five or five.

We can't underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Tubo soldiers, let alone the geographical advantages of this plateau, not only the geographical advantages of the plateau, but also many tall and dangerous mountains and mountains, so Li Yuanhao used troops twice to Qingtang City, and they were all defeated.

But now, the entire Huangzhou, including Qingtang City, Huangzhou, Kuozhou and Jishi Mountain, the current water and soil have not deteriorated badly, there are many elite soldiers and fierce generals, and many large tribes are scattered, but how many big tribes continue to obey Ali Gu's orders after the defeat of Ali Gu's army?

Just like Ali's bone soldiers attacked Wen Xixin, the soldiers and horses that really belonged to him were less than 20,000 people!

In fact, what Wang Ju didn't know was that in history, Ali Gu did not succeed in recovering Hezhou, and he turned against Western Xia, so he repented again. defected to the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty was the time when Yuanyou's party was at its most fierce. He defected to the good or not. There were few people who cared about him, of course, it was better to defect, so the Song Dynasty immediately crowned him as the Golden Purple Guanglu Doctor, the head of the Western Fan Miaochuan, which was equivalent to recognizing his legitimate dominance in Huangzhou. And then Ali Gu can be regarded as keeping to himself.

But Wang Ju just knew, and he wouldn't let go of this opportunity.

Moreover, the Tibetan warriors admired courage and martial arts, and even some brave people were proud of dying in battle, so Fan Zhongyan once wrote that familiar households loved the land. Protect the old and young cattle and sheep, and fight in the face of thieves, which can cover the Han households.

It is also said that the Tibetan people are good at shooting, endure hardships, go up and down the mountain like covering the flat ground, and in case of battle, they will help each other with evil, pass on arrows, and they will flow like a stream.

If it weren't for the changes brought about by Wang Ju, in history, the imperial court would have relied more and more on the soldiers in the northwest in the future. Just one Qinfeng Lufan strongman has reached more than 40,000 people, and nearly 8,000 strong horses. Every time you encounter a battle. All the soldiers charged in front, and the township soldiers followed (Baojie archers), and then forbidden soldiers to clean up the battlefield.

Therefore, the Western Army of the Song Dynasty was so strong in history, but when it fought against the Liao State and the Jin State, it was a series of defeats, which is also a reason. The strength of the Western Army is not the strength of the forbidden army in the Western Army, but the powerful soldiers of the Tibetan Army and all kinds of township soldiers......

Wang Ju also didn't know about this history, but he could see the combat effectiveness of the Tubo people.

Even though Liu Zhongwu wiped out the three villages, it seemed that the three villages were wiped out in the blink of an eye, but under the resistance of the three villagers, hundreds of heavily armed officers and soldiers were still killed and wounded.

At this time, let go of Ali Gu and gave Ali Gu time to integrate Huangzhou, what if he betrayed him in the future? Once the Ali bone is integrated, the Ali bone at that time will not be the current Ali bone.

There is another reason, if Ali Gu does not betray, now that Zhang Ji has gone to Hedong, Wang Ju will arrange the summer war in Gyeongju, Weizhou, and Yanju. It was Ali Gu's betrayal that disrupted the entire plan, including the Liaodong side.

Otherwise, next year's summer will have a year and a half to rectify, so when he leaves, it will be enough to hand over a quiet Lingxia to the imperial court.

But now, the whole Ali bone made everything so hasty.

After that, Wang Ju only said two words: "It's late." ”

Keep fighting.

When the messenger returned, Ali Gu regretted it greatly. Guan Jian is now the Song Dynasty took Lanzhou, and then took most of Huangzhou, almost completely cutting off Tubo and Western Xia. There is also a road, that is, the big fight valley that Wang Ju said, and there is also a road to Liangzhou on the side of Maoniucheng, which is the mountain road where Li Yuanhao's soldiers committed Tubo.

However, these two paths are rough and difficult to navigate, and it is not easy to unite with each other.

Or count on the scattered small tribes to the west of Chiling? Don't say that they are weak, and they don't recognize the status of Ali Gu.

Ali Gu was so embarrassed that he didn't even see any battles in the Song army, so he occupied these areas one after another, but unfortunately Wang Ju didn't know, otherwise he would have sent a copy of "The Biography of Pei Xingjian" to Ali Gu to read, so that Ali Gu could understand the sentence that a good fighter has no outstanding military exploits.

And another incident happened, which made Wang Ju hate Ali Gu even more.

Wu Nan finally escaped.

It was very hard to escape all the way, he didn't dare to flee to the south, and without the leadership of Yeluji's family, how could he escape back to Suzhou in Liao?

Forced to gain his own, he began to flee northeast to see if he could meet the men sent by the other side.

As a result, he was captured by a tribe, worked as a slave for a while, and had his hair loose, but finally he seized an opportunity and escaped again.

By the time he found the man on the other side, he was so thin that he was almost unrecognizable.

In fact, this is really not easy, that is, Wu Nan is alert, and fortunately he knows a lot of insiders, and he has also seen the approximate map of Liaodong, otherwise if he were anyone else, he would not want to escape from that big mountain and black water, let alone find a companion.

But now Liaodong has undergone earth-shaking changes, the Muluhe tribe killed Yeluze, and the local garrison was furious when they heard it, and immediately sent troops to suppress it. However, that tribe was also strong, and several surrounding tribes were also oppressed by these envoys of the Liao State to the point that they could not survive, so several tribes united and repelled this Liao army.

Wang Ju also underestimated the pressure brought by the large-scale acquisition of Haidongqing to these young women in Liaodong.

As these tribes rose up, more tribes participated one after another, and they couldn't stop it, and soon formed a powerful resistance force centered on the Wujiao.

The leader of the 5,000 soldiers on the Liaodong side is called Lu Hui, who originally participated in the battle to pacify Jiaozhi, and fought with the natives on the other side and made great achievements, so he made the other side the leader of this army.

Lu Hui saw that things could not be stopped, so he simply made a big fuss.

At his suggestion, the Jurchen tribes formed a resistance army of 20,000 or 30,000, attacked the city of Chaotong, Huanglong Mansion, and entered Changchun Mansion. There was a strong army stationed in the Liao State of Changchun, but under the leadership of Lu Hui, the Liao army was defeated in Changchun Prefecture. Then the coalition turned around and set off for Tongzhou.

However, this incident happened in advance, which was not in line with Wang Ju's strategy, Lu Hui asked Wu Nan to bring back all the information of Liaodong and report it to Wang Ju.

"How effective are the Jurchens?" Wang Ju asked after listening.

"It's tough, but the tribes don't work well together...... Wu Nan said.

He returned to Dengzhou by speedboat, hurried to the capital, and rushed from the capital to Hezhou, and heard a lot of news along the way, he also didn't understand, why Ali Gu rebelled, and now Wang Ju has dealt with Ali Gu, the inside story is not clear to Wu Nan now, but the matter of the summer will inevitably be delayed until the next year.

His extraneous voice is that even if this coalition army has Lu Hui's response, it will be delayed until next year at most, and it is impossible to delay it until the year after next.

"By the way, here's a list of the ministries that participated in the war, and the number of troops they contributed." Wu Nan handed over a piece of paper.

Wang Ju opened it to watch and asked strangely, "Why are there so many vultures?" ”

"Taibao, there are many branches of the Wuja tribe in the area of the Mingtongjiang River and Lailiushui, and most of them have joined the battle."

"Running water?"

"A large tributary of the Tongtong River in the northern part of the province."

In fact, it is the Lalin River, and this mixed river is the Songhua River. Wang Ju didn't know what the Lalin River was, but he knew that it was near the Mingtong Mansion.

"Is it the end of the face?" Wang Ju asked.

Few of these tribes are literate, and the people of the Song Dynasty had to transliterate it, Wanyan and Wuja have similar pronunciation, and there are some local accents in various regions, so Lu Hui thought it was a branch of the Wujak Department.

"Yes, the exact pronunciation is Wuyan, Wuyan."

"That's the end of the faces," Wang Ju said.

I don't know if Wanyan Aguta's clan participated in the war, but whether or not they participated in the war, this battle will also make the Liao State greatly weaken the power of the Wanyan Division, and the possibility of the rise of the Jin State will be halved, which is good news.

However, the news fed back from the front also proved Wang Ju's conjecture, although the Jurchen warriors were strong, they were not led by a competent person, and it was also impossible to create an invincible army.

But if the Liao State solves the Jurchen problem next year, it will be able to withdraw its hand and support the Western Xia the year after tomorrow, and there are even smart people who may judge the role of the Song Dynasty behind it through clues, which will stimulate the Liao State to send troops to help the Western Xia.

"Ali Bone!" Wang Ju gritted his teeth and said, if it weren't for Ali Gu, next year the Liao State would take care of Liaodong, and he would also take care of Western Xia. Who's afraid of whom! But now it's a little harder. (To be continued.) )
