From eunuch to emperor

Wu Gui, the prefect of Yangcheng, hurried to Qianya, found his subordinates, and asked him to quickly summon the Yangcheng school lieutenant to discuss the matter.

In Xixia, in order to control the hometown of Xixia, Long Chen made decentralization of official positions.

In a city, the prefect is the official, responsible for civil affairs, torture and other matters. At the same time, the school lieutenant is required to be in charge of military affairs and be the second in command of the city.

The civil administration and the military administration are separated, and the prefect and the school lieutenant supervise each other. When encountering important events, the prefect and the school lieutenant must jointly report to avoid dictatorship.

The evil fetus asked Wu Gui to summon [-] elites. The matter was too big for Wu Gui, the prefect, to be dictatorial.

Moreover, this matter is a military matter, and it stands to reason that it should be handled by the school lieutenant.

Therefore, Wu Gui, the prefect, asked his men to go to the school lieutenant to discuss matters.

The subordinates hurried out, walked a few streets, and arrived at Xiaowei's Mansion.

The place where the school captain is located has a separate government, and it is not in the same yamen as the prefect.

At the door, the soldiers guarding the door stopped him and asked.

Both sides knew each other, and the subordinates told the matter, and the soldiers notified immediately.

Soon, a middle-aged man with a strong figure came out. His name was Li Guishou, from Dazhou, and he was currently the captain of Yangcheng.

"Captain Li."

When the subordinates saw Li Guishou, they immediately saluted respectfully.

The school lieutenant and the prefect are at the same level, and the prefect is usually the main one, so his subordinates respect Li Guishou very much.

"Well, let's go."

Li Guishou nodded, mounted his horse immediately, and led two guards to the prefect's mansion.

When he arrived at the prefect's mansion, Wu Gui was discussing matters with the master.

"Lieutenant Li, please sit down."

Seeing Li Guishou, Wu Gui immediately stood up with a smile and saluted.

Li Guishou replied, "Wu Taishou."

Sitting down, the prefect Wu Gui went straight to the point and said, "Lieutenant Li, please take a look, this is an urgent report from the front, saying that the ghost tribe may invade the border, and ordered us to recruit [-] troops to rush to the northern border."

The master book sent the urgent report to Li Guishou, and Li Guishou accepted the urgent report, which was signed by Tang Na.

Donna is the commander in chief of the Xixia Homeland, and all the military administration obeys Donna's orders, so she has no problem recruiting new soldiers.

"Yanmen Pass has just been victorious, why is it necessary to recruit troops?"

Tang Na asked for conscription, and Li Guishou was the school lieutenant in charge of Yangcheng's military administration, so the matter naturally fell on Li Guishou.

Yangcheng has already had a large-scale conscription, and it will be very difficult to recruit another [-] soldiers.

"Because of the great victory at Yanmen Pass, the ghost clan suffered too many casualties, and they need to arrest people to suck their blood."

"Wuwang Shengshang is stationed in the east, and the ghosts dare not invade. The northern border of Xixia is their goal."

"Hey, this matter is difficult. If all the strong and strong are recruited into the army, what will I do with the food?"

Wu Gui pretended to be embarrassed, he was in charge of civil affairs, and he was in charge of growing grain.

The able-bodied men enlist in the army, and if no one cultivates the land, there will be no harvest.

There is a war going on in the north, and Yangcheng has to hand over food, so he is hard to be the prefect.

"No way, if the ghost race breaks through the border, then there will be nothing left."

Li Guishou, the school lieutenant, knows the priorities, and puts the war with the ghost clan first, and puts other things on the back burner.

"Yeah, this matter is urgent, 10 people will be needed in three days."

"It stands to reason that military affairs are Li Xiaowei's business, and I shouldn't do it for him, but time is too tight. I will assist Li Xiaowei to recruit soldiers."

The prefect Wu Gui was very proactive. Li Guishou put the overall situation first and did not doubt it. He said, "Everything the prefect says is for the sake of the court. I will immediately send someone to recruit troops."

The prefect Wu Gui got up and said, "Okay, I will also send people down here."

Li Guishou got up and left, and Wu Gui immediately ordered to recruit soldiers and horses.

Li Guishou returned to Xiaowei's Mansion and immediately sent an order to Yangcheng and nearby cities to recruit troops.

When the people of Yangcheng heard that they were going to be recruited again, they complained in their hearts.

The Central Plains is at war with the ghost clan, and everyone knows about it, but the conscription is too frequent, the elite are taken away, and more rations have to be provided, and the people are full of complaints.

When Li Guishou and Wu Gui conscripted, Guitai and Li Chengdao lived in the backyard, eating people and drinking blood every day.

Wu Gui ordered the backyard to be closed, and no one knew that the ghost was hiding in the backyard.

...

After Tang Heizi came out of Yanmen Pass with fifty horses and two spies, he continued to search in Xila.

After chasing for more than 300 miles, there was no trace of Ma Feizi.

"General Tang, no, why is there no trace at all?"

A Xichang scout caught up with Tang Heizi and said.

This spy is called Qu Tong, and his tracking methods are very good.

Coming out of Yanmen Pass, Qu Tong has been searching for horseshoe marks.

Ma Feizi is a horse breeder, and it is easy to steal a good horse from Yanmen Pass.

The distance from Yanmenguan to Xixia is very far, and it is impossible for Ma Feizi to escape on foot.

But after searching for so long, Qu Tong found nothing.

"I also find it strange, did Ma Feizi fly away?"

Tang Heizi also found it strange that Ma Feizi could not be found at all.

"Could we be chasing in the wrong direction? Ma Feizi didn't go to Xixia to find Wu Wang, but went out of Yanmen Pass to chase Wu Sheng?"

Qu Tong said his guess, and Tang Heizi said in embarrassment: "If Ma Feizi goes north after leaving the customs, we are indeed chasing the wrong one."

Qu Tong asked, "Do you want to chase north?"

Tang Heizi thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, chase to the west, if Ma Feizi goes north to chase the Martial Saint, there is no point in our pursuit."

If Ma Feizi chases Wu Sheng, there is no need for Tang Heizi to chase him, because he is likely to run into Wu Sheng.

Therefore, Tang Heizi chose to continue chasing westward.

"Okay, then continue west."

Although Qu Tong disagreed, he must obey. This is military discipline.

...

Western Xia Acropolis.

This place is located on the northeastern border of Xixia, and the snow in the mountains is melting, moistening the dry land.

The place where the snow water flows is lush and full of vitality.

When Yu Wenkai arrived outside the city with the [-] Demon Dragon Battalion, Xiong, the prefect of Weicheng, beat gongs and drums intimidatingly to summon the soldiers.

They thought that the ghost clan had killed the Acropolis.

Yang Hu looked at the soldiers on the guard city, they were all old and weak, and there were few in number, and said: "If you meet Qin Hao, you can break through such a city in a quarter of an hour."

Tan Wenyue said: "The difference in combat power is too great, the city is full of old and weak people, no wonder Long Chen said that this place is easy to be attacked."

Yu Wenkai looked around, a river flowed down from the mountain, winding south around the Acropolis.

There are fertile fields beside the river, and the green grass at the foot of the mountain is suitable for grazing.

For Xixia, this place is indeed a good place, second only to the fertile land in the south.

"Go and tell the prefect of the Acropolis that we are not enemies, so don't be scared out of your wits."

Yu Wenkai smiled, Yang Hu rode his horse to the bottom of the city, and shouted to the soldiers on the city: "We are the Demon Dragon Battalion, Long Chen asked us to come and defend the city."

The soldiers on the city didn't know about the Demon Dragon Camp, they only felt that the three thousand soldiers and horses below the city were cold and cold, and they looked very scary.

"What is the Demon Dragon Camp, are you a ghost clan?"

The bows and crossbows on the city were aimed at Yang Hu, and the soldiers were very nervous.

Yang Hu felt that he couldn't explain clearly, so he asked, "Where's your prefect Xiong Wei, let him speak out!"

The soldiers in the city didn't listen at all, and shouted: "Get back, or you will shoot arrows!"

The soldiers in the Acropolis are not stupid. They are few in number and it is best to let the enemy retreat automatically. If there is a war, they will not be able to stand up.
