Zhao Kai's heart calmed down a little, since the last time Yang Zhi reminded him, his attention to Liu Yu is not under Yang Zhi, he knows that this is a person who is full of desire for power, and there is a high probability that he will not agree to Jin Guo to let the eldest brother be the king;

Zhao Kai's face calmed down, looked at Yang Zhi and said, "You don't have to remind me." ”

Yang Zhi smiled bitterly: "I'm for the Great Song Dynasty." ”

Zhao Kai was stunned: "You dare to say it." ”

Zhao Kai understood what Yang Zhi meant, if it was for personal interests, Yang Zhi would not do this, but for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, Yang Zhi would not care about Zhao Kai's own thoughts, how to fight for it or for it, in other words, if Yang Zhi thought that Zhao Kai's actions would harm the interests of the Great Song Dynasty, he might not support Zhao Kai.

However, for Zhao Kai, Yang Zhi's reminder is enough, he does not doubt that Yang Zhi has the determination and means to take down Guo Yan, let alone Yang Zhi has the courage to do a strong order at that time; In case of a situation like what Yang Zhi said, Guo Yan made any mistakes, or was implicated by Yan Qi and others, Zhao Kai was afraid that he would not be able to stop Yang Zhi's actions in time.

Zhao Kai didn't blame Yang Zhi, but after Yang Zhi left, Zhao Kai immediately came to Cao Qianli to discuss, and Cao Qianli suggested after listening to it, it was better to change Guo Yan to be the envoy of Hezhong and take over the position left by Zhang, as for Chang'an, Yang Zhi could use whoever he wanted. Yang Zhi decided that Lu Yi would be appointed as the envoy of the Yongxing Military Road, and the Jingyuan Road was still Yang Yizhong, the Xihe Road Liu Qi, and the Qinfeng Road Zhuwu, and the original Weinan area was merged into the Yongxing Military Road.

Li Heng specially came to ask Yang Zhi before leaving, he was a person who was labeled as Yang, and he was unwilling to change his court, so he naturally had to think about the future; Yang Zhi just told Li Heng that the battle of Xingzhou was probably not as simple as Zhao Kai thought, and that anything could happen to Sun Ang and Zhang's subordinates, even if the battle collapsed, it would not be surprising, Yang Zhi asked Li Heng to know in his heart, not to be hot-headed on the battlefield, and to cushion others.

Zhu Wu and Xu Wen went to Chang'an to hand over to Guo Yan first, and Yang Zhi wrote to Liang Xun to move the transfer division to Chang'an. He waited for Zhang to familiarize himself with the situation, and then set off when Sun Ang's men arrived. Who knew that Guo Yan also made a show, and Zhao Kai said that he could have a good relationship with Yang Zhi, so angry that Zhao Kai wrote a letter to send a fire, telling Guo Yan not to know what to do, and asking Guo Yan to go to Puzhou immediately to take office. Zhao Kai explained the meaning very thoroughly, he picked Yang Zhi's fruit, Yang Zhi made great contributions, and received such treatment, but Chang'an, who went with dissatisfaction, if Guo Yan made a mistake, something would really happen.

Zhang led 20,000 horses to arrive first, and he also understood that he was just a name, and there was no need to re-plan the war in the northwest, as long as he and Qu Duan and Sun Ang attacked Xingzhou. Sun Ang arrived five days later with an army of 80,000, including 7,000 elite soldiers composed of Hengshan Qiang, and Zhang Shen also mobilized 50,000 veterans of the western army of Dunyan Road, which was the only area that had not been affected by the war in recent years, and the number of veterans was still sufficient.

With the map provided by Zhang Yanyi, Wang De and Yang Jin only spent four days to break through the Helan Mountain Village in Western Xia, Helan Mountain was in hand, the main force of Western Xia reinforced Xingzhou, and there were not many Western Xia troops left behind, basically there was no ability to fight back, the only variable was Dingyan Mansion, and there were tens of thousands of Western Xia main forces. Zhao Kai still followed Yang Zhi's original routine, asked Yue Feiteng to come out and keep an eye on the army of Dingnan Mansion, and ordered Liu Qi and Yang Yizhong to send troops to attack the prefectures of Hexi separately, and he and Zhang led a large army to force Xingzhou.

After Zhao Kai's personal conquest, Yang Zhi handed over Weizhou to the newly appointed Northwest Transit Envoy Ye Mengde, and then set off for Chang'an; although Lu Yi and Guo Yan had a normal handover, Guo Yan and the scholars of Chang'an still did some tricks and feet, and waited anxiously for Yang Zhi to deal with it. Ye Mengde specially sent it to the Ten Mile Long Pavilion, and Ye Mengde asked Yang Zhi: "Taiping Business still needs you to deal with it, do you want me to allocate some grain and grass over." ”

Ye Mengde knew clearly that Zhao Kai drew the dark side of the hand of the Northwest Fusi, Shaanxi's main income was horses and salt, to put it bluntly, it was to rely on the products on the territory of Xixia that Yang Zhi had beaten down to make up for the lack of finance in Shaanxi; now Zhao Kai re-divided the region, which is equivalent to dividing Yanzhou and other salt-producing areas into the Northwest Zhifu Division, and the salt is still in Hezhongfu, Shaanxi has obtained the dilapidated Yongxing Military Road, but has lost all the salt money, Yang Zhi's current pressure is not small.

On the surface, Zhao Kai successfully regained power and made Yang Zhi suffer a dumb loss, but now after all, in the war, don't look at what Liu Tao and others said, but if it were so simple, Zhao Kai would not transfer him Ye Mengde to the northwest as a transfer envoy; Sun Ang and Zhang Shen and others will not care about any supply difficulties, hundreds of thousands of troops are moving, at least the same manpower is needed to transport materials, Ye Mengde still hopes that those merchants of Taiping Firm can undertake most of the supply tasks.

But after a few days of contact, the effect is not ideal, Zhao Lingyun and those people only believe in Yang Zhi, and they have a lot of scruples about Zhao Kai's clan, that is, the princess Zhao Yingluo wrote to say that the endurance of the north-south trip has reached the limit, and if Ye Mengde has an idea, he should ask the Xue family and the Guo family to bear a little more. But those people in the Guo family, Ye Meng can also figure it out with his toes, the price they need to pay for doing these things is better than directly hiring people from the government.

As a transfer envoy, Ye Mengde naturally didn't want to have an uncontrollable scene, which made Zhao Kai unhappy was small, and the impact on the war was big, so he also wanted to reach an exchange with Yang Zhi, after all, part of the grain and grass allocated by Zhao Kai was in Puzhou, and it was very convenient to transport it across the Yellow River to Chang'an; I will consult with the princess that the accounts of the north and south will be at the end, and this is the last thing I can do for you. ”

Yang Zhi can't promise in this regard, the businessmen are heavy on profits, including the Taiping firm running around on the front line so much, it is not for profit, if Zhao Lingyun loses money, the entire imperial family will not let him go, but Zhao Kai has already tasted power, and no one can guarantee that Zhao Kai will not plunder the money of his own people in a hurry. Ye Mengde could only smile bitterly, Liu Tao and these guys still maintain the thinking that the country can be lost, but the threat of the military generals must be stifled, Yang Zhi obviously doesn't want to say more.
