Xining Prefecture is almost at the throat. The talented and wise man believes that as long as Xining Prefecture is guarded, the Xiliang Prefecture Grain Road, the only reliable logistics supply line of the Xixia army, can control the Xiliang Prefecture Grain Road.

As long as the logistics line from Xiliang Prefecture is theoretically within the radiation range of the Tubo cavalry, it can limit the scope of the movement of the main force of the Xixia army, and they cannot extend the front line endlessly.

However, if Xiliang Prefecture falls, in addition to the main grain in the Hehuang area falling into the hands of Xixia, it will be equivalent to the comprehensive opening of the logistics strategic channel by the Xixia army. At that time, the maneuver range of the Xixia army would expand by more than five times. Therefore, once Xining Prefecture, an important eastern town, was lost, Yusiluo believed that it would not be safe even if he retreated to the west of Qinghai Lake.

This is why, after the third son Dong Jin, the Battle of the Huangshui Chakou, saw that Huangzhou was in a hurry, but Yu Silu could not send troops to rescue Huangzhou because the elusive Manme troops did not surface at that time. If they divided the troops, the rescue troops might be ambushed.

Although Huangzhou is lost now, it will not die. The young lady knows very well that even if Hehuangdong District falls into the hands of Xixia, Song's aid can still be barely transported from Langzhou. Although the loss of Huangzhou leads to a detour, it can be done after all.

If Xining Prefecture is really lost, the border between the area controlled by the Yisiluo regime and the State of Song is basically completely cut off, and it is necessary to pass through the border assistance of some separatist tribes from below, then something may happen.

If those tribes dare not act recklessly in peacetime. But now the Yeshiluo is facing the risk of "destroying the country", and the 70,000 troops of Western Xia are approaching, so those tribes in the south may be ready to move at this time. This is called beating the dog underwater.

Based on this severe situation, long before the fall of Huangzhou, Ye Silu sent envoys to Bianjing. In addition to requesting more aid, he directly asked the Song Dynasty court to intervene.

But the situation changed too quickly, Dong Wen was too stupid and too useless, and the Song Dynasty court had officially replied. In the time that everyone expected, Huangzhou had fallen into the cruel attack of Manme tribe and Zhuo Luolan tribe and was washed away by blood.

The world is shocked, and the pattern will change...

The visible movements of the world were approaching. On one side, the Tubo envoys were bloody and crying and requesting rescue. But on the other side, the anti-war factions within the Song Dynasty court were afraid that the Xia factions would begin to tug of war.

There is no problem with aid, but Fu Bi was also hesitating about military intervention. The visible construction opportunity of the Song Dynasty has arrived. At this time, not many people want to fight and do not want to offend the people of Xixia.

Even regarding the issue of aid, the Xia faction may not agree, saying that it may annoy Xixia and lead to Xixia directly attacking the border of the Song Dynasty.

Fu Bi, who was in a dilemma, decided to provide food support to Yusiluo, and urgently issued a government order to Qinfeng Road Langzhou and Jishi Army, and organized 20,000 stones of first food to cross the Yellow River and deliver it to Xining Prefecture. However, Fu Bi, who did not agree with military intervention, also urgently issued an order to retreat thirty miles to the Jishi Army, and ordered that no conflicts with the Xixia Expeditionary Force would occur.

Now the Song Dynasty court is in chaos.

Because Han Da’s brain was for border security and was afraid that the war would burn to Song territory, he strongly ordered the Jishi Army to garrison across the Yellow River and push forward ten miles. This was a bit like taking the opportunity to invade Tubo’s territory in the military, but politically it was equivalent to "expressing serious attention". So the orders of Fu Bi and the Privy Council of Han Qi clashed again.

It is certain that the Hehuang area cannot fall into the hands of Xixia. However, Han Qi cannot determine whether it is military intervention.

Now Han Qi is considering something new. Because Fu Bi's policy exists, the Yesilu regime is an ally of the Song Dynasty. Therefore, from the perspective of loyalty, if the Hehuang area is in the hands of Yesilu, the Song Dynasty will be embarrassed to occupy it. But if it is now solemnly concerned, when the Xixia people conquer the Hehuang area, and lose their troops and generals, the Song Dynasty will take action to get rid of the evil spirits. This will be no shame.

This is Han Qi's initial idea.

However, the existence of the Xia Sect was destined to have great resistance to Han Da Naoke's idea.

It is true that now is the best financial situation since Zhao Zhen was in power, and Di Qing fought beautifully in the Battle of Guangnan, and Wang Yun fought very beautifully in Shuzhou, Huaixi and Funing County in Funing County, northwest. So even though the army has not been reorganized, the current morale and morale of the military is also the best since Zhao Zhen took power.

But conservatives believe that using this good situation to protect themselves and develop themselves, they must avoid being very fond of merit and intervene in the war now. Perhaps there are really one or two elite soldiers who can fight, such as Di Qing's direct troops and Shen Jilang's direct troops. These are all elite soldiers who have been tested.

But there are still too few elite troops, which is what everyone is worried about. The mainstream view believes that the Song Dynasty still does not have the ability to go out for military intervention.

At this moment when everyone was making noise and had not decided for a long time, news about the pills came one after another: after half of Dong Jie's troops were injured, the remaining troops fled, and Huangzhou fell and was washed away.

This was beyond everyone's expectations.

Immediately in early June, Beijing Zhang Fangping's proposal arrived at the court, and Wang Rong also convinced Wang Anshi with the situation of his family letter at the same time.

In addition to the continuous blood and tears of the Tubo envoys, Fu Bi, who had always had a chivalrous heart and wanted to preserve the results of his past diplomacy, finally decided to promote the review of Zhang Fangping's "Several Suggestions of the Volunteers of the Song Dynasty into Hehuang"...

Mid June.

The details of the volunteer army's dispatch are still being discussed, and the newspapers from the west are overwhelming, saying that the Manme troops gathered 40,000 troops to forcibly advance during the rainy season, conquering food and grass everywhere, causing blood and tears in the Hehuang area, and many people rushed into Langzhou, Song State to take refuge.

There are also documents from Tubo: I cried again about the emergencies in Xining Prefecture. In order to prevent all Hehuang areas from falling into the hands of Xixia, I asked the Sect Master to be responsible and to intervene as quickly as possible.

At the same time, Sima Guang, who made the final diplomatic efforts, also gave up. The Ministry of Rites of Song State sent him to Xixia to find more people to communicate, demanding that Xixia "withdraw troops immediately and stop inhumane behavior in the Hehuang area." The suggestion was handled by Xixia coldly and did not respond, resulting in the officials of the Ministry of Rites of Song State still staying in Xingqing Prefecture and doing nothing.

At this urgent moment, in desperation, the volunteer army entered Hehuang and received support from some people and officially decided to be a private national policy.

The appointment of the commander became a problem. Han Qi advocated the use of Wang Yun to command, because the northwest bandit suppression battle was extremely beautiful, and the little kid had the ability to command the war and reduce casualties.

But there are many opponents, and the reason is that Wang Rong is too young and has a low level. Although he can be considered brave and good at fighting according to his resume, he has not experienced many tests.

Even the emperor opposed it, and there was no reason. Zhao Zhen's health became worse and worse. Now, he was reluctant to put the prodigy on a battlefield where the situation was difficult to understand.

In this regard, according to the recommendations of Wang Anshi and Zhang Fangping, Di Qing, who had no choice but to fight for dozens of battles for the country, once again paid for his pain.

"There is no military number this time. For humanitarianism and justice, we will go to the Hehuang area to fight. Let's set off!"

It was raining heavily, and Han Qi received the talisman awarded by Han Qi on the field of the Bianjing Military Academy. The nearly fifty-year-old veteran Di Qing waved his long sword and set off with 1,500 elite soldiers.

Di Qing's general rushed to the Jishi Army on the western border as quickly as possible, reorganized the Jishi Army and then transferred personnel, and then entered Xiliangzhou as a volunteer.

At that time, the water in the Bian River Wharf surged and was in chaos.

Except for the various merchant ships that filled the river and caused it to be blocked, people have begun to feel panic because now, many places are in urgent need of floods.

The possibility of flooding that the previous prophecy of Shen Jilang became increasingly greater.

Di Qing, who was waiting for military ships at the dock, saw people complaining, crying, and cursing. They were asking why Wang Rong's Fukangqu plan was stopped at that time?

Because of this, the previous assistance to Tubo was not strong, and it was difficult to decide on military intervention. Because as early as June, the flood that Wang Yun predicted was 60% possible.

Wang Gongchen and Sima Guang have now become the target of concentrating fire. At that time, these two people opposed Wang Rong and Han Qi's Fukangqu plan.

Sima Guang is quite honest and barely fair, so the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and now he blushs and stops talking, stays in the door, and doesn't even speak after being scolded.

But Wang Gongchen was not so obedient, and he was fighting within the court. Wang Gongchen transferred the conflict and began to responsibilities. Wang Anshi and Zhang Fangping's "Volunteer Army Plan" was to play the piano randomly. When his military strength was insufficient and his food accumulation was insufficient, he dared to interfere with the human rights issue of the Tubo barbarians?

"This is a self-inflicted person, which will destroy my Song Dynasty Feng Shui and encounter divine punishment." Wang Gongchen's general meaning is this. Is this the defense statement given to him by the Taoist staff?

Now that he was waiting for shipping, Di Qing, who had always been cautious in Zhejiang, could only smile bitterly. Politics was not about Di Qing's business, but if it was really at this critical moment, the Song Dynasty had to tighten its belt due to the water village, and it would have to tighten its belt to supply aid to Tubo and the combat needs of the volunteer army.

Therefore, this war promoted by Wang Rong was nothing to be optimistic about in the eyes of military commander Di Qing.

"I'm so fucking away. The Privy Council has shipped here. I'm in a hurry to carry out an expedition."

Di Qing was thinking in the heavy rain and heard the officers under his command drive away the dock workers and merchant ships with whips, but he couldn't ask. In this wet weather, dozens of old injuries on Di Qing's body were in pain, and his whole body was in full swing.

In the chaos, he was cursing and driving away. He finally got on the ship. The soldiers suddenly shouted, "What's wrong with you, Shuai Di?"

Then Di Qing even stood unsteadily and fell to the ground.

Han Qi's military order had been issued and could not be delayed, so he pulled Di Qing onto the ship, quickly shipped military supplies, and then went on a battle along the river.

This time, given that Di Qing’s reputation among the literati and official group was too poor, how many difficulties would he suffer? Will the military supplies be replenished smoothly? These expeditionary soldiers were unsure, but there was no way. This was the beginning of the second half of the third year of Jiayou.

At that time, no one believed the prophecy of Shen Jilang, and the Fukang Canal was refrigerated, and everything happened. This was destined that the Song Dynasty would help Li Luozheng defend Xining Prefecture when the house was raining all night, so that Di Qing needed to go out with injuries when he was sick...

Northwest Funing Army.

When Di Yong learned that his father was in charge when he was old and sick, he would go to the Hehuang War Zone, he had long been restless and eager to try.

Unfortunately, the Privy Council has made other arrangements. Except for the Jishi Army of Qinfeng Road, any other military system has not obtained the Privy Council's authorization to take the lead.

The more people are slight, and they can't interfere. For these things, Di Yong was scolded by Lu Huiqing, saying, "Do you just a little army man want to make a flower?"

Immediately following Dalian, who was far away in Beijing, arrived in Funing County with a private message, asking the governor Lu Huiqing to authorize Di Yong to join the army and form a volunteer army.

Regarding this news, Di Yong, Ma Jinxi and others were all full of blood. However, Lu Huiqing sprayed out a mouthful of old tea.

I really couldn't figure out why Wang Yun was dismissed and wanted to "authorize" the Funing Army to go into battle? If this was the private authorization of his father Wang Anshi, I wouldn't say it. Of course, it was not in accordance with the rules, but he could go into battle. But Wang Yun is now a "director" of the Mechanical Industry Bureau, who is almost a commander-in-law, has opened this idea?

The great devil is always simple and crude in his work, and the threatening meaning in the letters is already very obvious. If Lu Huiqing does not act and the industry is withdrawn in the future, the political achievements of the old Lu will become negligent.

Wang Rong's reason is also very upright: if the volunteers cannot defend the Hehuang area and the strength and mentality of Xixia will be extremely expanded, then they will not be assured to put high-end and sophisticated industries on the northwest border.

This is a hooligan. For this reason, he would have destroyed Funing County and would have been wide open at the court level.

And the reason was found by Dalian. Although the rest of the military system has not been authorized to take the troops, now that the martial law orders of the whole world have been lifted, since the Song Dynasty volunteer army has entered the Hehuang area to fight, damn Funing County sent dozens of hundreds of people to the Hehuang area under the situation of "Red Cross Rescue Volunteers". What are you afraid of? Who would say you are wrong?

When Lao Lu thought it was reasonable. Since this national policy was a "volunteer army", there was nothing wrong with taking these guys on vacation, Di Yong and his sons led 100 people into the Hehuang area to carry out humanitarian work.

In this regard, Di Yong obtained the authorization of Lu Huiqing to take the troops, brought nearly a hundred "instructors" and a "introduction letter" written to Yu Siluo by the consul of Funing County, Yinzhou, Yinzhou, and before Di Qing, he secretly went to Xining Prefecture to participate in the united front and propaganda work in advance.

The Funing Army did not need to go out. Wang Yun had analyzed as early as the early stage of planning that Di Qing's military quality was absolutely fine. He just couldn't do well in political and mass work, and some key lines were flawed.

Therefore, Di Qing is responsible for military affairs. With him defeating the thousand elite troops of Nong Zhigao, and then reorganizing the Jishi Army, it would be less of a problem. Wang Rong only needed dozens of instructors to join the Volunteer Army with the reputation of Red Cross Aid, and tried to solve some political and propaganda problems.

If you can't do these things in another person, even if Wang Rong goes there personally, it won't work, because Di Qing will really kill people on the battlefield when he becomes irritable. Therefore, he will never leave the father and son soldiers. This "cadre company" composed of instructors can only lead Di Yong to coordinate Di Qing and minimize friction.

Di Yong is Wang Rong's true teaching. As long as there is no problem with the principled routes of some great zodiacs, the Hehuang War Zone will not be too worried. Even if you suffer a loss, it will not be very serious. You can continue to increase the scale of the volunteer army. Under Di Yong's monitoring, you can evolve the bloodline of the team as a training army.

After winning the Battle of Xiningzhou, there were more elite troops available in the Song Dynasty. This was Wang Rong's purpose.

With Di Qing in the Hehuang War Zone, the Hehuang War Zone was not fighting marching and formation, and no military tactics would pose an effective threat to Di Qing. So this time it was a comprehensive tug-of-war war in the territory of Tubo, the logistics and national strength of the Western Xia and the Song Dynasty.

This was no problem in the past. You could drag the Xixia until the lamp was exhausted and you would not breathe for ten years.

But the biggest problem now is that Fukangqu was still pregnant at that time, and the flood was coming in full force, and it was almost done, which might threaten the safety of the capital. Therefore, it has become a dark period of the Song Dynasty. Wang Yun, who has always believed that man will conquer the heavens, can only ask God for blessing in his heart for the time being...
