Chapter 155 has its own picture

The Xia army under Zhenwu City was attacking like a tide, braving the rain of arrows to attack the city, and the Song army in the city was fighting desperately with blood stains on their faces, preventing the Xia army from ascending the city... The brutal battle lasted until dark, and the Xia army retreated, but the Song generals in the city still did not dare to slack off, and were busy carrying rolling wood and stones, lighting torches at the head of the city to prevent the Xia army from attacking at night - kbook update

The Zhenwu army is even more worried, worried, the battle has lasted for more than ten days, the urgent report for help has already been sent out, but the reinforcements have not arrived, but the Xia army is attacking more and more fiercely, the Zhenwu army seems to be a cursed place, two Zhijun have died in three years, he is worried that maybe tomorrow he will be the same as the previous two Zhijun, and the city will be ruined.

In the big tent of the Xia Army, just after dinner, Brother Cha ordered someone to convene the generals to discuss, "Tonight, our army will evacuate the Zhenwu Army!" Brother Cha swept his eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Dutong, why is this, as long as our army fights again tomorrow, we will be able to take Zhenwu City!" As soon as Brother Cha's words fell, the generals in the tent were in an uproar, and the Xia army won a complete victory in the first battle of Tong'an City, and the Song army did not dare to plunder its front, which was a good time to use troops.

"Shao'an, don't be impatient, I just received information that the Song Army's defense of Kuozhou is about to lead reinforcements He Guan, the fighter plane has passed, and if this city is not broken, it can also be left as a sick block in the Southern Dynasty!" Brother Cha said leisurely.

Listening to Brother Cha's explanation, the generals were relieved, and even called him smart, this He Guan is a general of the Song Dynasty, brave and champion of the three armies, archery is like a god, and he is also a character who is not easy to mess with. Moreover, Zhenwu City was built in a mountain gorge, and it was very difficult for Xi and Qin to supply and reinforce them, and if Zhenwu City was captured, he would undoubtedly remove a chicken rib for the Southern Dynasty and also receive a hot potato, so it was really a brilliant strategy to leave it to the Song army to contain its military mobility ability.

After arranging the withdrawal of troops, everyone dispersed, but Brother Cha seemed to have suddenly aged ten years, and sat on the chair with a sigh. At this time, only he himself understood, and it was true that He Guan brought troops to help, but the real situation was that he was worried that he would be outnumbered and did not dare to send troops, but was just bluffing and did not dare to engage in battle with him; The sick block of the Southern Dynasty is a reason to put gold on his face and prevent low morale, Zhenwu City is in danger, and he always threatens his own safety, which is really a sick block in his heart.

However, today, Brother Cha received another edict, ordering him to lead the army to rescue Fengzhou and reopen the post road to the Khitan. It turned out that since Li Jiqian of the Western Xia, the successive lords of the Western Xia Dynasty have married the princesses of the Liao State, and the Liao canonized them as the Xia kings, and often maintained a close relationship. There are two post roads from Xingqingfu to Khitan, one is to cross the Yellow River through Hengcheng in the east, and enter the Khitan through the Ordos Desert, but this road was completely cut off by the Song army after capturing the Quye River, and it can only bypass the Weifu Military Division of Montenegro. In a few days is the birthday of the emperor of Liao, Xia sent an envoy to congratulate his birthday according to the custom, but he was robbed by the 'horse bandits' on the way, the tribute was robbed, the guards and envoys were killed, which provoked the anger of the emperor's brother, and ordered him to aid Fengzhou in the east and regain his hometown.

Brother Cha knew in his heart that the horse bandits who could kill hundreds of elite soldiers of the Xia Kingdom and grab the tribute were not born at all, and that must be a plan used by his new opponent - Prince Yan of the Song State saw that he was not moving, so he made people pretend to be horse bandits to kill people and make a big incident, forcing him to withdraw his troops and Zhenwu City to bring troops to the east to help, and solve the crisis on the western front. He was angry, but he was also a little excited, and he wanted to meet the new star in a hurry.

．．．．．．

In early April, Zhao Tan led his army to Fuzhou. Fuzhou City is located on the border, with the Xiangshan River in the mountains, the Great Wall in the north, and the Yushen in the west, controlling a large area of land on the west bank of the Yellow River.

Zhao Ta will arrive one after another to the soldiers and horses placed in the border forts stationed, he brought the guards into Fuzhou City, came to the city, Fuzhou Zhizhou Zhi Keqiu has already led the subordinate officials outside the city to wait, a few words of greetings, Zhao Ta under its guidance into the city, the cliff in the south is the surging Yellow River, the east and west are manna and Majia two ditches sandwiched, the north and Gaoliang Mountain, Wulidun in the same vein, the road into the city is only a narrow and tortuous path, the whole city relies on the dangerous terrain, easy to attack, easy to defend. …,

Although it was easy to defend on the top of the prefecture, it was extremely short of water, and it had to be supplied by the Yellow River, and if the water source was cut off, the prefecture city would be difficult to defend. Therefore, in order to consolidate the water intake road when the city was built, it was close to the Yellow River, and there was no gap even under the city. There are two main streets in the city that run through the east and west, and the rest of the streets and alleys are scattered in between, forming a network of vertical and horizontal lines, named after East Street, South Street, North Street, and Confucian Temple Street respectively, and there are many blue brick and blue tile shops on both sides of the street.

Zhao Ta once had an intersection with the Zhe family in the capital, and pulled them in between difficulties, and they were acquaintances, and now they are Shangguan, so they are even more respectful to him, and arranged the prince in a spacious courtyard in his own house, with all the maids and servants.

"Xiaguan Zhekexing to see the prince!" Zhao Ta had just dismounted, and an old man stepped forward to give a salute and said, Zhi Kexing is the current head of the Zhi family, and now he has handed over the position of the prefect to the eldest son Zhi Keqiu, and he has 'pensioned'.

"Fold, don't give a gift!" Zhao Ta hurriedly returned the salute, "This king is here this time, bothering the adults!" ”

"The prince said there, this can make the lower officials panic, now the prince is the head of Hedong, last year three battles and three victories, beheaded tens of thousands, famous on both sides of the Yellow River, can go to the cold house to rest the horse, the old man can't ask for it!" Zhi Kexing politely brought the prince into the hall in person.

"Please use tea!" Zhao Ta twisted his face and looked, feeling like a breeze in spring, refreshing and refreshing, and like a touch of sunshine in the cold haze of winter, warm and comfortable, addictive. The girl had black hair, clean and thick eyebrows, long eyelashes, bright eyes with a slight blue, a high nose bridge, round lips, forming a soft and sharp outline, with exotic blood, she was beautiful rather than sexy and charming, but a little more charming and a little gentle.

"Fold girl, one year or two, it's always good!" Hearing the light cough behind him, Zhao Ta suddenly 'woke up', took the teacup in Zhe Meiluan's hand and said with a smile.

"What's wrong with a little woman who can eat and sleep? But it was the prince who went east and west to beg, worked day and night, and looked thin! Zhi Meiluan said with a chuckle.

"Meiluan must not be rude!" Seeing that his daughter's words were joking, Zhi Kexing hurriedly scolded.

"Hehe, it's okay, the old acquaintance between the girl and me is too polite but restrained!" Zhao Ta waved his hand and said.

"The little girl is in the northwest, dancing with her brothers every day, and she doesn't know the etiquette, which makes the prince laugh!" Zhi Kexing glared at his daughter and said.

"Hmph, where are there so many rules, rambling all day long!" Zhe Meiluan muttered two sentences to her father dissatisfied, pouted and left.

"Let the prince smile, the sister doesn't know the etiquette, and please don't be surprised!" Zhe Keqiu smiled bitterly and said to the prince, wondering in his heart, although his sister has a pungent temperament, she can barely be regarded as a well-informed lady, why did she collide with the prince three times and twice today?

"The girl has a good temperament, but she is straightforward and cute!" Zhao Ta looked at the back of Zhe Meiluan who disappeared outside the door and shook his hand and said, without the slightest hint of displeasure.

It is rumored that this Yan Wang Ye has a tricky and eccentric temperament, moody, and unpredictable, he has just succeeded to the prefect of Fuzhou, if he offends him because of his sister's affairs, now the army is pressing, and he has no power to clean up himself, and when he sees that the matter is covered, he hurriedly ordered someone to hold a banquet for the prince to catch the wind.

Everyone knows that the prince of Ludao has transferred troops on a large scale this time, first, to relieve the pressure on the Western Front; One is to lay down Fengzhou, the current situation can be described as very good, Fengzhou has been besieged for a year, it has been rumored that the grass and trees are all soldiers, under the siege of 40,000 troops will be able to win all, the credit of this is naturally great, the spoon of the dish is in the hands of the prince. And if the border generals have no military achievements, they will have no status in the emperor's heart, so their privileges of autonomy will be weakened, and a prefecture with a small territory and few taxes, the seizures in the war and the rewards of the court are also important sources of income for them. Of course, the father and son of Zhe Kexing must perform well at this time, strive to win the first credit, and alleviate the economic crisis. …,

Zhao Ta also knew that the ancestor of the Lu Dao Fold family was the Tuoba clan of the Xianbei clan, the same ancestor as the Li clan of the Western Xia royal family, and the same ancestor as the Xia Li clan in the Song Dynasty. Since the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the Fold family has lived in Fuzhou, and the two wealthy families of the Yang family of Linzhou and the Wang family of Fengzhou have been married for generations. The Yang family of Linzhou has been passed down for three generations, and the Song Dynasty has no longer served as the governor of the state because his son is too young to do anything, and the Yang family, as a local tyrant, will no longer specialize in the land of Linzhou. After the fall of Fengzhou, the Wang family was no longer in power, and the overseas Chinese placed their state in the realm of Fuzhou and attached themselves to the Zhejia. The Zhejia family has become the most influential local tyrant in the three states, and the Zhejia has produced powerful generals, is good at appeasing the people, and is known for its prestige, and the government can only appease and use it, and does not directly interfere in its rule.

Now that he wants to use troops against Fengzhou, Zhao Ta knows that he can't do without the support of the local snake family, not only will he not deliberately offend them, but also maintain a good relationship, so the two sides are naturally happy, and the guests and hosts are happy.

The banquet did not disperse until the first shift, and the father and son of Zhe Kexing said goodbye and returned home, "Father, this attack on Fengzhou, Prince Yan has done his best to transfer the elite of Hedong, and Fengzhou is always the auxiliary force of my Fuzhou, if I can get the post of Fengzhou prefect, I will definitely be able to boost the prestige of my family!" Zhe Keqiu saw that the left and right were his own soldiers, and he rode forward with his father and whispered.

"Huh?!" Zhi Kexing's heart shook suddenly, but his face quickly calmed down, "I can ask for it, we are the leader of the Zhe family, father and son, brother after brother, for the country, until you have been the sixth generation of the thirteen lords, guarding the land of this county, and opening up the territory, it is also the wish of the heads of the past generations, this time is indeed a good opportunity, whether you can get your wish depends on yours!" After he had finished speaking, he struck his horse and went back to his house first.

Zhe Keqiu was ecstatic in his heart, his father's words just now had already made his attitude clear, giving him full authority to deal with this matter, and let him act cheaply!
