Wang Dai asked suspiciously, "Do you still have time?" The Jin army has already begun to move, and the war is about to start?"

Yang Zhi laughed: "Do you think that the Jin army can reach Chang'an, as long as the battle in Xingzhou is over, it will give Wanyan Zongwang two courages, and he will not dare to kill Chang'an." ”

"When will the battle of Xingzhou end?" Wang Dai really didn't treat himself as an outsider: "I heard about it along the way, because you left the front line, and the offensive in Xingzhou has not made much progress. ”

Yang Zhi said angrily: "People who don't know how to fight look at war, just like you, how can there be a general who wins a hundred battles, if I am replaced by me, I am still helpless under the city of Xingzhou, otherwise why do I insist on not fighting Xingzhou? That place is a time-consuming battle, even if the entire Western Xia is defeated, according to the strength of the Xingzhou Western Xia army, it is possible to defend it for a year or two." So in my eyes, it's a place that isn't worth fighting, but there's no possibility that you can't beat it. ”

"So, the Dingbei Army will fight on both sides for one to two years?" Wang Dai understood this time: "So during this time, no one will take care of you?"

Yang Zhi nodded and said: "That's pretty much what it means, what I need to do is to hold Hanoi and Guanzhong, considering that once Bianliang goes to war, a large number of displaced people will flee to Guanzhong, I need you to find out the truth, the sooner the better." In less than two years, a year later, you will be able to see the results of Chang'an, and the so-called existence is reasonable. ”

After the meal, Yang Zhi did not tell Wang Dai too much, so he sent Wang Dai to Lu Yi's side, and the main task of the Fu Division in Chang'an was military deployment, not to solve the case; at present, with Yang Zhi's additional troops and reorganization from the Tuntian battalions in various places, Wang Shan's 20,000 horses are still on the front line of Tongguan, and Yang Zhi's troops concentrated in Chang'an now are Xu Wen, Yang Zhongwu, and Li Yanqi, each with 15,000 people, Xu Wen and Yang Zhongwu each have 3,000 cavalry, and Li Yanqi has only 500 cavalry.

The worst combat effectiveness is Li Yanqi's one, they are formed by Li Yanqi's original 10,000 people and the army left by Guo Yan. But before the hustle and bustle of Chang'an subsided, Yang Zhi did not plan to quickly equip this army, because Zhao Kai took away the power of the army, and incidentally took away Yang Zhi's control of the war horse, plus Shaanxi's armor was supplied from outside, Yang Zhi now had to be careful with his calculations.

Yang Zhi needed to see how well Li Yanqi controlled and trained this army, whether he could go to the battlefield or not, and whether it was worth giving them these equipment; Yang Zhi appeared at the training ground of Li Yanqi's army early in the morning on the second day of Wang Dai's arrival. The training ground used by Li Yanqi is the original colonel field of the Yongxing Military Road Army, and the ground is rolled with soil and paved with a layer of gravel, so even if it rains, there will not be the slightest mud.

It's just that it's too empty, and it is said that the Western Army is at its peak, and this large school field can accommodate 50,000 troops at a time, and 15,000 people stand in the sun, which still looks a little small from a high place. Li Yanqi stood beside Yang Zhi, looking at the black oppressive phalanx below with some concern, although the soldiers under his command were fully armed and standing solemnly, but Li Yanqi had seen Xu Wen and Yang Zhongwu's troops, and knew that the gap was not a little bit.

Yang Zhi didn't say anything, just stood on the high platform and watched the exercises below, and after watching for a whole hour, Yang Zhi did not move, and the exercises below did not mean to stop, even Li Yanqi's sweat had been flowing down his cheeks, and the heads of many people below were already steaming. Hard work is certain, but what Yang Zhi and Li Yanqi didn't expect was that in just one hour, someone fell straight down.

Although Li Yanqi arranged manpower in advance, as soon as he saw such a scene, someone on the sidelines immediately ran over and moved the fainted person out for first aid, but Li Yanqi's face was still a little feverish, and he started training the troops when he learned that Yang Zhi was coming, but he didn't expect it to be so unbearable. Yang Zhi looked down and said lightly: "The military discipline is good, and the soldiers you selected are also good, but the officers seem to be a little worse, and they should be promoted from below." ”

Li Yanqi knew that Yang Zhi would not say such a thing for no reason, when Li Yanxian was transferred to Chang'an, there were only 3,000 soldiers composed of fellow villagers, and with the expansion of the army again and again, Li Yanqi's subordinates lacked veterans who had experienced a hundred battles, and almost half of the officers above Bai Chang were transferred from outside, and there were many people who came to gild, and all kinds of differences existed from the beginning of the expansion of the army. Li Yanqi smiled bitterly: "Yang Shuai, there are not so many candidates. ”

Yang Zhi saw Li Yanqi's worries, Li Yanqi was worried that there would be chaos if he did so, and he was even more worried that Yang Zhi would take the opportunity to meddle in this team, after all, in Li Yanqi's mind, his team still belonged to the escort army of Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, and was currently only obeying orders under Yang Zhi. If it was completely controlled by Yang Zhi, in case Zhao Kai was unhappy, Li Yanqi would not dare to imagine the consequences.

Yang Zhi looked at Li Yanqi and said lightly: "I take over Chang'an, King Yun is to hand over the military in Guanzhong to my hands, I don't want the appearance of an army that cannot fight, and it will affect the overall situation at that time; if you can't do it according to my requirements, I can consider discussing with Wang Shan and letting your two escort armies be transferred." ”

The faces of the generals behind Li Yanqi changed drastically, Tongguan is not far from Chang'an, but the army stationed in Chang'an is completely different from being stationed in Tongguan, Chang'an is a prosperous place, and the treatment is much better; what is Tongguan, that is one of the forefront positions of the Dingbei Army. Li Yanqi thought more, as the western army attached to the Dingbei Army, he would not imagine that Yang Zhi would hand over Tongguan into his own hands at all, he was more worried that this was Yang Zhi's first step, and after his army arrived at Tongguan, he would soon be sent outside the pass under another name.

As a high-ranking general, Li Yanqi knew the news that the Jin army was about to move south, whether it was Wang Yan of the Dingbei Army in Weizhou or Wang Shu's Western Army in Bianliang, they might need reinforcements from Chang'an; the surroundings were so quiet that he could hear everyone's heavy breathing, Li Yanqi faced Yang Zhi's gaze and said helplessly: "I will promote some officers as soon as possible to make the troops look new." ”

Yang Zhi knows very well that Li Yanqi has not turned this corner, and his current statement is just that he doesn't want to get too stiff with himself, even if Li Yanqi and Li Yanxian are cousins, because they have different backgrounds, they are not the same in terms of thinking. Li Yanxian has always seen the pattern very clearly, and only then will there be a matter of admonishing Fan Zhixuan, but Li Yanqi seems to hate himself for showing outstanding ability because he feels that he has no background and no background, and just wants to stay in this position peacefully.
