Return to the Song Dynasty

Chapter 79 The rain is coming

After experiencing the advanced civilization of the Song Dynasty for so long, Zhao Man has learned about the backwardness of the household registration system in the Song Dynasty and the sorrow of women in the patriarchal society.They do not even have the right to register.The so-called household registration records in the hands of the head of household, each family only records males and property, etc., but there is no trace of females.

"Hey, where do we go to find out?" Zhao Man felt powerless.That woman was also mentally tough, no matter how much she was tempted to speak, she would not say a word. (Except for seeing Zhao Man yelling at him, but when the words of curse are reversed, they are "shameless, shameless, despicable", etc., which is nothing new.) Zhao Man and others are too gentlemanly, and they don't treat women very well. He could do it, and he didn't do anything like torture or torture. At most, he just starved her for a few meals.

Zhao Man was worrying, but he saw Mr. Zhang, who had white beard and hair, walked in with his hands behind his back.

"Xiao Man, there's no need to check." Zhang Wei sat on the chair next to Zhao Man, took off the saber he was carrying, and wiped it slowly and carefully, "Get ready."

"What are you preparing for?...You mean..." Zhao Man suddenly widened his eyes, "Are we going to war?"

"Well" Mr. Zhang didn't look up, he was still carefully wiping the sword that he had fought with him for many years, "From the words and deeds of that woman, it is basically certain that she is from Xixia. Song is fighting. Judging by her appearance and the items found this time, it is estimated that she has not heard any core secrets. But our actions must have attracted the attention of the Xixia people, otherwise we would not have sent agents to come..."

"So we used our cavalry and improved new weapons to catch them off guard before they were ready?!" Before Zhang Wei finished speaking, Zhao Man understood, and even heard that there was going to be a war. The child's blood boiled with little excitement.

"Yes! That's the reason!" "Okay!" Guo Cheng, Yue He and others who didn't know when they came in also became excited.You know, this will be the first time that Da Song, who has been passively beaten, will take the initiative to attack Xixia!

"Hmm~" Chen Canjun also made a meaningful voice.

"Okay, since everyone is so confident, then..." Zhang Wei looked at the group of high-spirited Western Army elites in front of him, stroked his beard with a smile, and said, "Let's build a few cities first."

"What?"

"what?"

"Xiu, Xiucheng?"

"Isn't it?"

……

From then on, the iron-blooded and invincible demeanor of the Western Army was completely awakened by the old male god Zhang Chu, which opened the prelude to the unification of China by the Song Dynasty.

In the second year of Yuanfu, the Northwest Fifth Route was fully prepared for war.Jinglue envoy of Jingyuan Road prepared the materials for building the city (Chen Canjun, Zhao Man: It was clearly prepared by us!), and asked the rest of the roads to cooperate with the feint to distract the Xixia army.

Lu Huiqing reacted most positively to the strategy of Yanyan Road, and immediately ordered his generals to send troops to plunder Hongzhou on Hengshan.Sun Lu, the economic envoy of Huanqing Road, sent troops to occupy Yanzhou for a short time.Zhong Chuan, the envoy of Xihe Road, expanded the outskirts of Lanzhou and built Jincheng Pass on the north bank of the Yellow River to threaten Xixia's right wing soldiers.

Such a big move, of course the party members can see it.Liang Taihou, the supreme ruler of Xixia, decisively assigned the famous general sister Le Dubu to fight, and placed Ganzhou, Right Chamber, Zhuoluo, Weizhou, Zhongzhai and Tiandu Mountain in the Twelve Supervision Army Divisions under his command, and took full charge of the battle. Dealing with the Song Army's combat matters.

However, under the noses of the Xixia people, Mr. Zhang, who is more than a few years old, still led a group of colleagues and subordinates who supported him to perform a wonderful show.First, they deliberately built more than a dozen small cities in a big way, and successfully attracted Xixia's attention, but in fact, Yao Xiong and other four groups of people came and went, fighting back and forth in falsehood and reality.All the meiles who got it were stretched left and right, and sent people back and forth to fight against the enemy in a hurry.

Twenty-two days later, the Xixia people were shocked to realize that a Song army fortress had risen out of thin air on the Shimen Gorge, the throat of their own, and named it Pingxia City.

Mei Le Dubu jumped up angrily: Your sister!Got tricked!Song people are really insidious and cunning!

Zhang Yi stroked his beard calmly: Hehe, soldiers never tire of cheating.This is called strategy and tactics, why don't you come to my Song Dynasty to study?

Lu Huiqing, Sun Lu, Zhong Chuan, Yao Xiong and others: Hey hey, I'm going to bully you, what's wrong?

Of course, the sturdy party members would not stop there. They quickly assembled their forces and besieged Pingxia City, trying to completely destroy this newly built new city.However, at this time, Jingyuan Road had been supported by the other four roads in the northwest, and the various cities and villages echoed each other and supported each other.

As soon as Meile Dubu came to Pingxia City, he learned that the Song army from the nearby Xingping City, Huining Pass and other places had galloped to help.When did the sissy Song Army have such professional cavalry? ! !Mei Le Dubu scolded her mother, not daring to fight, so she had to fight with the defenders in a hurry, and then quickly withdrew.

Pingxia City was able to gain a firm foothold.At this time, Pingxia City was like a sharp knife piercing the land of Xixia, tearing apart the territory of Xixia, allowing the Song army to use it as a springboard at any time to point directly at the hinterland of Xixia.

Later, Jingyuan Road built four cities in the suburbs of Pingxia City, fully controlling Shimen City and the west bank of the Hulu River.Zhang Wei directly appointed Guo Cheng as the commander there, and was fully responsible for the defense of Pingxia City and the four surrounding cities.Afterwards, he took the opportunity to order Zhe Keshi to lead the troops to advance for sixty miles, build two fortresses at the entrance and exit of the Wuyan Gorge, and completely block the Xixia invasion route from Tiandu Mountain to the Song Dynasty.

Xixia, Xingqing Mansion, and Empress Dowager Liang sat upright in the court, listening to sister Le Dubu's report on the battle situation with a blank face.At the end, Empress Dowager Liang suddenly asked: "Pingxia! Pingxia! Did they really name that city Pingxia?"

"Yes, yes, I saw with my own eyes that Pingxia City is written on the plaque at the gate of the city." Le Dubu, a burly man, suddenly felt a little sweat on his forehead, and he shrank back subconsciously, hoping that the Queen Mother would Can ignore his huge body.

"It's unreasonable!!! It's a shame! Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, I, Xixia, have never given up. Now, now... what does this mean? Is this trying to destroy me?!! A joke! It's a joke!!" The Queen Mother Liang was furious In a rage, he slapped the desk, the large and gorgeous golden sleeves brushed against the desk fiercely, and all the utensils on it fell to the ground with a thud.

The young Xixia emperor Li Ganshun was also taken aback, "Since the Xixia army was defeated a few years ago, the queen mother has become more and more irritable. He glanced sideways at his mother who was still throwing a tantrum at the generals, shook his head imperceptibly, and made no sound, and the thin braids with sapphire beads hanging on his cheeks also swayed slightly , it turned out to be a little cute.

"Have you found your second sister yet?" Queen Mother Liang lost her temper and suddenly turned around to ask.

"Not yet, but I have already sent more people to continue the search." Li Qianshun replied helplessly.My little sister knows that since she was a child, she has been unruly and self-willed, coupled with the empress dowager Liang doting on her, she is a lawless bully at all.A month ago, she ran away from home because the person she proposed to marry was not satisfied.

The seventeen-year-old young emperor Li Qianshun looked at his mother, who was still beautiful but could not hide her violent aura, and then thought about the little girl who danced with knives and guns all day long, like a king's flower, and could only sigh silently in his heart. : 'Oh, horrible women. ' And silently lit a piece of wax in my heart for my father who died young.

In the winter of that year, the sky was cold and the north wind was hunting.After seven days of trekking, Zhao Man and Yue He finally arrived at the frontier of the Song Dynasty border - Pingxia City.

Originally, Zhang Yi was reluctant to let Zhao Man go to the front line. In the words of Mr. Zhang: "Although Zhao Man is a genius, he is not good at martial arts. No one can make plans. Fighting on the battlefield... Let's forget it." ” However, the situation was threatening, and the Privy Council received a report from Huanqing Road about the party’s National People’s Congress mobilization, and then ordered the entire frontline of the Northwest to be on alert.

Mr. Zhang, who is old and mature, immediately smelled the smell of conspiracy. Xixia must take action!So at this time, the easiest target for the Xixia people is naturally Pingxia City, where the party members are entangled in their throats.Based on Zhang Yi's understanding of Queen Mother Liang, if there is no accident, she must gather a large number of people to destroy Pingxia City, just like Yongle City back then.

(Yongle City was built by the Song army during the reign of Emperor Shenzong, and was besieged and pulled out by the Xixia army, which caused the loss of the most elite cavalry of the Song army at that time. Song Shenzong: I cried sadly at that time. I still feel uncomfortable when I think about it now (﹏))

Pingxia City must not fall!This is the key to Da Song's comeback!Keeping Pingxia City will keep the springboard for Da Song to attack the hinterland of Xixia, and will keep the hope of completely defeating Xixia!Therefore, there is absolutely no room for loss in Pingxia City!However, Guo Cheng alone is really hard to resist.

Although Guo Cheng is brave and courageous, he is still too upright and lacks strategy, so he really needs help.In addition, the soldiers, food, grass and weapons that can be accommodated in a city in Pingxia are extremely limited, and powerful weapons must be used to effectively prevent the crazy attacks of the enemy.In terms of power, it is naturally rockets and fire bombs.

What's more troubling is that Guo Cheng, who is arrogant by nature, is definitely a prickly person. He doesn't listen to anyone's words, and he is usually a master with righteous ideas.It would probably be thankless to pick anyone to help him in the past. Maybe the opinions would not be unified, and it would cause internal friction. The worried Zhang Yi lost his gray hair all over his head.

Guo Cheng probably also had self-knowledge, he sent a letter directly to his old boss, specifying that as long as Zhao Man was named, no one else would come.In fact, his original words were: "Don't come and shake those shit sticks! I have a headache watching it. If Xiaoman comes, I can make do with it."

Hearing this, Zhang Li lost his hair and beard together.With Zhao Man's small body, it is still unknown whether he can make it to Pingxia City alive in this cold winter!However, unexpectedly, Zhao Man agreed without any hesitation.Chen Canjun, who was going to do ideological work for Zhao Man, choked his lungs with a mouthful of saliva, coughed for a long time and choked out a sentence: "Xiao Man, do you want to think about it again. In fact, you can send someone else to go."

"What else are you thinking about? Brothers are working hard to meet the enemy. I, who has been engaged in logistics all the year round, finally have a chance to shine on the front line. It's not easy!" Zhao Man waved his little hand, looking like a passionate young man. look like.

"Besides, our newly improved bombs, rockets, and fire bombs haven't been tried yet, and the accuracy and ratio are not easy to grasp. I can just practice with Xixia people there, so I can use them on a large scale, right?" Zhao Man Still smiling and not serious.

Zhang Lao Xianggong felt inexplicable sadness in his heart, the so-called Huiji will be hurt, probably that is the case.Xiaoman, you must know that I have no one to use, and Pingxia City urgently needs firearm support.He is the only one who is the most suitable. He not only has a strategy to make up for Guo Cheng's shortcomings, but also is good at improving weapons. This person can solve all the current problems.

Zhang Yu couldn't help raising his head to look carefully at the handsome young man in front of him.He is tall and tall, with picturesque eyebrows, fair face, and his gestures are full of nobility.Years of military career did not obliterate his elegant temperament at all, but precipitated the unique calmness and masculinity of a soldier, making this once red-faced and white-toothed young man grow into a heroic and handsome young man.

His slender fingers gently picked up the teacup, and slowly brought it to his lips. He opened his lips slightly, and his every move could be painted.Every movement is as if it has been precisely measured, flawless, elegant and majestic.

Zhao Man seemed to feel Zhang Yi's gaze, he slowly raised his head, his phoenix eyes, which were slightly raised at the end of his eyes, squinted playfully, his eyes were shining brightly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, like a smile that was not a smile , like a fox that has absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon in the mountains and has become a spirit, it makes people feel evil.

The change of painting style was too sudden, and your son suddenly turned into a goblin, but the elderly Mr. Zhang was taken aback. He didn't swallow a sip of tea and almost choked, "Cough, cough, cough..."

"Hey, how's it going? Are you fascinated by my handsomeness?" Zhao Man's tone was brisk, and he became more and more out of tune.Those who are familiar with him know that he just uses this method to relax and cover up his inner anxiety.
