Time Traveling Routine Movie King

"I'm coming to the Northwest Protectorate's Mansion this time, so don't announce it in advance. Li Lu and the others are all on the front line of Xiliang Mansion, right?" Shen Bai talked with Dongping Hou Xiaomo on the way back to the city.

"Yes, he is a rare general, very brave. Although he is the son of Marquis Dingxi, he is worthy of being the queen of the general family." Xiao Mo praised.

"They are all tiger fathers and no dogs." Shen Bai said with emotion: "The Jia family, Li family, Xiao family and Yang family are really good."

When Xiao Mo was told, he felt emotional, his son did not rely on himself, he was the only one among these people who made his own way.

Of course, the blessings Jia Shiqing and Li Lu received were not many.

"I'm going to go there. Do you know the movements of the party king Helian Tianjiao?"

Although Dongping Hou knew about Shen Bai's record in Liaodong, when he heard that Shen Bai was going to the frontier of Xiliang, he couldn't help persuading him: "My lord, the enemy troops in Xiliang are very active and very dangerous, and there may be an attack in the near future. Fengcheng, which is guarded by General Li Lu, is the closest to them, so it's really inappropriate for you to venture there."

"Do you want to fight?" Shen Bai asked with concern.

"I'm afraid the possibility is very high." Xiao Mo replied, hoping to interrupt Shen Bai's thoughts.

"Then I have to rush to see how the Dangxiang cavalry is different from the Khitan cavalry." Shen Bai's words made Xiao Mo sigh with emotion. Confidence and courage.

"If you must go, I will send [-] cavalry to go with you." Xiao Mo saw that he could not persuade Shen Bai to give up his doctrine, so he had to find a way to send troops to protect his safety.

"How many party cavalry are there in Xiliang?"

"About 10,000+, but the cavalry of the Tangxiang people is not weak, and the horses are also a mixture of prairie horses and plateau horses, which are very good for charging.

Shen Bai nodded: "Their main force is still on the opposite side of your Xiping mansion?"

"Of course, there are more than two hundred thousand."

"That's fine. I'll go quietly. If there is any movement over there, don't worry about it. You'd better stick to the Xiping gate. I won't take any risks. I mainly want to get in touch with Helian Tianjiao."

"Contact Helian Tianjiao?" Xiao Mo looked at Shen Bai incredulously: "This person is very mysterious, he is not like Yelu Anqi, he tends more to be handsome, rather than a warrior who leads the charge."

Shen Bai nodded: "Is there any news about Qi Baili?"

"He is still locked up. Helian Tianjiao persuaded him to surrender several times, but he didn't agree." Xiao Mo said.

"Oh?" Shen Bai smiled: "Then he is still a man!"

"What is it!" Xiao Mo said with a look of disdain: "His clan and family members are suppressing in Bianjing. If one side surrenders, the other side will punish the clan. Give him courage!"

Shen Bai sneered, this is Yu Wentuo's method of controlling the officials, unless his relatives do not recognize him, he would not dare to belittle himself.

After all, this is ancient times, even sitting is still a very terrible method.

Even in a small neighboring country in modern times, the family members of the secessionees were even imprisoned with extraordinary means.

"The method of Lian Zuo is still powerful, let alone the Zhu clan!" Shen Bai said tentatively, he wanted to see Xiao Mo's attitude towards Yu Wentuo.

"Speaking of this matter of sitting together, I am reminded of an incident a few years ago." Xiao Mo said.

"What's the matter?" Shen Bai asked with interest.

"About five years ago, the emperor sent a pair of forbidden troops of more than 500 people, all in casual clothes, to the Xiliang Mansion where I was guarding, saying that they were going to the hinterland of Tubo.

At that time, there was a hundred households in the forbidden army who were the sons of my subordinates, so I knew the situation very well. They said that they were ordered by the emperor to go to a place to look for minerals. "

Shen Bai thought for a while: "Go back and look at the map and tell."

Going back to Xipingcheng where the Duhufu is located, the tall bronze cast city gate shows the strict defense here. The tall city wall is 20 meters high. The city wall is the artillery launch port and is heavily guarded. Explaining the previous turmoil in the Northwest, Yu Wentuo spent all his money here.

"Did this artillery fall into the enemy's hands when Xiliang City was broken?" Shen Bai asked in a low voice.

"Hundred artillery households were bombed, and his whole family was suppressed in Bianjing." Xiao Mo said.

Shen Bai nodded silently.

Xiping Mansion is Huining Mansion, the capital of Xixia in history. The power here has been unabated for a hundred years, until the Mongolian army's iron hooves fell straight down. He hated the Xixia royal family who betrayed Genghis Khan three times. Let's wait until the Xixia royal family arrives and kill them all.

Due to the existence of a large number of border residents and the presence of a large number of foreign merchants, Xiping Mansion is still very lively. The streets are crowded with people, and the copper bells under the camels' necks jingle from time to time.

Many houses on the street are made of local yellow adobe bricks, but the roofs are the Central Plains roofs with black tiles and brackets. The combination of hatchbacks has a very exotic mixed style.

Many merchants dressed in sheepskins and carpets looked at the road and stretched out a hand as if asking if they wanted to buy.

Some merchants from the Western Regions were sitting on a small carpet, playing the huqin, with spices and machetes in front of them.

"The business here is very lively!" Shen Bai asked looking at the flow of people on the street.

"Before the war, I also wanted to expel them all, but most of them were merchants from Tubo, Uighurs, and even farther away from Khorezm. I couldn't bear it, so I kept them.

On the contrary, this has promoted the progress of commerce and trade, which surprised me, and many materials are also useful to us. "

Shen Bai sighed: "It would be great if everything was like this, there is no external threat, everyone is talking about business, and we can't afford weapons."

Xiao Mo thought for a while and didn't speak.

Back at the Dudu Mansion, the servants began to prepare food.

Boiled beef slices, thick noodles sprinkled with spices.

Shen Bai's food was delicious, but Leng Shaojun didn't have much appetite.

"Master Leng, is this?" Xiao Mo asked concerned.

"Is there any milk tea?" Shen Bai asked.

"Yes, do you drink too?" Xiao Mo was a little curious.

"Boil a pot and bake some flax cakes." Shen Bai said.

After a while, the boiled milk tea came, and there was a small bowl of brown sugar on the tray.

Shen Bai poured a bowl for Leng Shaojun, put brown sugar on it and served it to him: "Drink."

Smelling the fragrance of milk, Leng Shaojun couldn't help but took a sip, and it was as sweet as sugar, and the fragrance of milk was overflowing.

He ate two of the roasted beef flax cakes with milk tea.

Xiao Mo looked surprised: "Jun Shen is so familiar with the food in the Northwest, I am really surprised."

Shen Bai smiled: "When I go out in the army, I have done a lot of research on the grassland diet, in case the army is not acclimatized."

Xiao Mo heard the praise and nodded in praise: "Jun Shen Shen is not a general who can match shoulder to shoulder just because of this point of carefulness."

Shen Bai ate noodles with him, while drinking beef soup. The boiled beef soup was very delicious with the mixture of spices, and it was more suitable for the Northwest diet than the Central Plains method that lacked seasoning.

The hand-grabbed lamb chops are served with wild onions and ginger sauce, which is very delicious.

"Just now I saw that Lord Hou was talking about foreigners on the street, and he seemed to have something to say." Shen Bai was willing to finish a lamb chop, and Leng Shaojun saw that he was blowing it very well, so he learned to eat it. I can't eat half of it.

"Hey, back then, I participated in the 'Battle of Dingbian' with a group of veteran lords in the Tian Family. Does the prince know about the Battle of Dingbian?"

"I really don't know about this!" Shen Bai said honestly.

"The battle of the opening of the three Protectorate Mansions was collectively called the Battle of Dingbian by the emperor, and it lasted for five years." Leng Shaojun said.

Shen Bai nodded, motioning for Xiao Mo to continue talking.

"Actually, our population in the Northwest Protectorate was more than that. In the past, there was no fixed country here. It was just a place where many tribes lived in groups, mostly party members. In the Battle of Dingbian, elites from all over the country were recruited to participate. All three battles were victorious, thanks to the large number of soldiers and horses, no less than 80 troops participated in the three battles, even Khitan did not dare to act rashly." Xiao Mo said.

"So after the victory, the approximate strength of the three Protectorate Mansions is what was left at that time." Shen Bai said clearly.

"Yes, most of them are, how can the imperial court afford such a big battle, and all the armies are dispatched from various places, so in order to solve the military supplies and supplies, we have to rob them." Xiao Mo pointed to the direction further west: " The few border towns inside the Yumen Pass were the largest trading places at that time, land without owners, but the trade was prosperous, they were looted, and many foreigners were also killed. It was also at that time that the Uighurs began to treat us as big Enemy, never make peace."

Shen Bai nodded: "We did it too decisively, so we asked them to unite and resist desperately."

"Yes!" Xiao Mo sighed and said, "The Emperor's younger brother, Prince Yun Yuwenxin, opposed this. Unfortunately, he was shot to death by the white wolf army's random arrows during the Battle of Beiyuan."

"So that's how it is." After Shen Bai finished his meal, a servant came over with a Malaysian-style silver pot and poured water for him to wash his hands.

He and Xiao Mo got up and went to the big map, pointing to the location of Qinghai: "Is this the location of the minerals?"

Xiao Mo was stunned: "No wonder An Guogong wrote to say that your title of Guishuai is well-deserved, and there is absolutely no falsehood. King Shen, you are simply amazing."

Leng Shaojun also came over and looked at the map: "There is not even a place name here, what can I look for?"

"Gold." After Shen Bai finished speaking, Xiao Mo and Leng Shaojun were taken aback.

"How did the prince know?" Leng Shaojun asked curiously.

"Someone once got lost here." Shen Bai pointed to the location of Qinghai: "This is a salt lake, and the Gobi desert is nearby. There is a place inside, and there are golden sands everywhere. Someone picked up a few water bottles and came out alive. It has become a legend ever since. .”

"Then this place has been picked up long ago?" Xiao Mo asked curiously.

"The sea of ​​death." Shen Bai nodded: "There is no fresh water for hundreds of miles around, and it is very easy to get lost. It is not easy for ten people to go and one person to come out. When you talk about the forbidden army, they probably died in the wind and sand."

Xiao Mo sighed: "No wonder, even the Tubo people are not very active here, they have no reason to disappear."

"Their family members have been imprisoned?" Shen Bai asked.

Xiao Mo nodded with an ugly face.
