The northwest territory began in the Song Dynasty and was reported to Cheng Houzhou, including Lingzhou, Qingzhou, Huanzhou and central and eastern Qinzhou. Later, troops were stationed in Huizhou and Weizhou, etc., but here they were only bans, similar to the prefectures in the upper corner of the northwest.

As for the four states of Dingnan, it was like a pit trapped in the northwest of the Song Dynasty, and Li Jipang was offered. Some people exaggerated the wealth of the four states of Dingnan, and this cannot be taken seriously. But its geographical location is really important. With this pit, even if the Tuoba Li family did not rebel, the court could never effectively manage the northwest, let alone the North and South Hetao area above it.

After several large armies of the imperial court suppressed the rebellion, Nanhetao almost controlled it, but it still did not march west or north. The west was Tubo people, including west of Qinzhou, Lanzhou and other places, and even had weak control over Weizhou.

The main reason is the restraint of the Khitans.

Therefore, the court is not interested in the Tubo people or Jiaozhi for the time being and cannot be distracted!

Therefore, from Fuzhou and Fengzhou to the north, including the Beihetao area, there was no even garrison.

Then we went to the southern territory of the Khitan. To be precise, before the Later Tang betrayed the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, not only the sixteen Prefectures belonged to the Central Plains forces, but even the various separatist forces, even the north of the prefectures, south of Jiashan, and west of Fengzhou, were all managed or bounded by the Central Plains. As the Liao Kingdom grew, outside the ancient Great Wall, the various tribes of Jiashan surrendered to the Liao Kingdom, including the Wang Family in Fengzhou. However, the two major forces did not pay much attention to this area.

Although the Wang family turned to the Song Dynasty, the Liao Kingdom was once angry.

The Song people called the Taihang Mountain west of Dingzhou the western mountain. The Liao people called the Yin Mountain west of Liao Fengzhou the western mountain. But generally speaking, the area controlled by the Liao Kingdom was only east of Heishan (Daqing Mountain). But just like the Song Dynasty's Beihetao, it was a real ban.

No matter how much, the terrain is complex, the ethnic groups are numerous, and the people are fierce. When the Song Dynasty saw the price of the four prefectures of the Song Dynasty, although Li Jipang took the initiative to offer the land, if it weren't for Song Jiu's golden finger, he sent more than 100,000 troops to Li Jiqian, who had only some remnants, and at the same time, he also invited the Wang family who was familiar with Nanhetao to cooperate, the Song Dynasty might not have been able to get the four prefectures of the Song Dynasty!

Think about how the Song Dynasty obtained Hehuang in history. It was a case of being crippled by Xixia. It took many years to take the blood of many soldiers and finally took Hehuang. Soon after the capture, the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed.

The ban is OK, but it is managed directly. The cost is too high!

However, in Yongxi's northern expedition, the Wang Zhe family and his family invaded Fengzhou with many Qiang and Bohai troops, which made the Liao Kingdom finally realize the importance of this area and began to win over policies. For example, last year, Jiashan was drought. Some tribes lacked food, so Xiao Yanyan sent people to provide relief. The Song Dynasty wanted to open up the Jiashan commercial road on the frontier, but the Liao Kingdom forced to block it. It would only make the people disgusted, so they simply set up checkpoints to learn from the Song people's taxes. The Zhe family and the Wang family sent supplies to provide relief, and Xiao Yanyan sent people to put poison in the food. Even though several people were poisoned to death, the Jiashan tribes were very disgusted with the Zhe Wang family.

Although the troops came to block the enemy and the water came to garrison, the Liao Kingdom was extremely angry at the two wealthy families of the Party and Xiang.

...

In order to govern Guangnan and northwest Hunan, the Song Dynasty had to set up an imperial guard to station it.

Especially in the northwest.

However, the nature has changed now. The northwest is not only used to garrison troops, but also to train troops. Especially the Nanhetao, which is mostly Gobi and desert, with the Beihetao on it, and the Wang family and Feng family stuck in front of it in the northeast. The Nanhetao planned to train cavalry by Song Jiu, which accounted for almost half of it.

But so many horses have to eat grass. Of course, 20,000 yuan is really nothing to ride on the Nanhe Tao.

However, this problem of water and soil made the Yellow River miserable. Song Jiu could not save it, but he would not intentionally let it worsen. Therefore, the Yellow River attracted some ditches and built some water storage dams. The rougher ones were fine. This was only used for irrigation and improvement of water and soil, and was not used for navigation. Almost 90% of them were pastoral areas, and the requirements for water conservancy were not so strict.

Then, with these irrigation ditches and water weirs, some sand prevention forests were built and drought-resistant grass was planted. The horses were kept in captivity and were released during training and scattered on this vast sand field.

However, due to the threat from the Liao Kingdom, these light cavalry could come in handy, almost all of which allowed Song Jiu to be transferred to Hebei and Hedong, increasing the strength of the two major war zones.

At first, these measures also made the Liao Kingdom panic, and then the scouts reported several news.

Tens of thousands of cavalry were not a burden to the vast border of Hedong and Hebei, and so many areas became idle fields. But these war horses were not only the choice of horses. When the cavalry arrived in Hebei, almost all of them rode Khitan war horses to support them. Although the Hetao horses were good, it was too difficult to raise them in Hebei.

We had to plant some miscellaneous grains and plant reeds more widely in Hebei. Some reed varieties are the best green feed, which can enhance the border defense strength. We also transport cement and gunpowder, use gunpowder to blow up the rocks, and then use cement stones to repair a stronger fort. The construction in this way is also very expensive, so it is not much repaired, just the main forts and county towns of the prefectures.

There are waterways in Hebei, and the freight is cheaper, but Hedong is mostly dry roads. Therefore, a cement workshop was set up in Bingzhou to make cement. It is not for profit, but mainly for military purposes.

It is still mainly focused on defense, not like attacking Yan Yun. Otherwise, it would be too expensive to do this.

It is possible that this will make it more difficult for the Liao army to move south.

However, the Liao Kingdom was also resting and resting. With two major defeats, the Liao Kingdom was unsure and had to watch these forts and forts rapidly increasing and strengthening. But strategically speaking, in addition to the mountainous Hedong, the Song Dynasty strengthened more than 20 forts, but still could not completely resist the Liao cavalry going south. The vast plains gave too much room. It can only be said that the troops were strengthened, the forts and forts were reinforced, and many fast cavalry were added. Although this kind of cavalry that was trained was despised by the Liao people, the defense intensity was increased.

Moreover, it has many defects. The Song Dynasty practiced cavalry, unlike the Liao Dynasty. Most of them grew up on horseback. The Song Dynasty cavalry often rode on horseback and shot, and cooperated with each other. Therefore, more space was needed.

This is the current situation where there are many idle fields in Hebei and Hedong. If the population on the border increases after the Chanyuan Alliance, the number of people on the border may be even greater. Even so, this will restrict the increase in the number of cavalry in the Song Dynasty.

There is also the cost of raising horses. Even if the front line planted grass and miscellaneous grains to provide for horse food, the appetite of horses must be much larger than that of people. We even have to feed a small amount of chickens to strengthen horses. As the number of cavalry increases, the food and grass on the front line obviously begins to be seriously insufficient and must be transported from the back line, resulting in a gradual increase in military expenditure.

There is also a lack of horses, so the proportion of new recruits transferred to the northwest who were deliberately trained into cavalry has been reduced, less than 20%. They are also trained riding skills, which is only to achieve the goal of riding. However, a large number of pastures were reclaimed on the banks of the Yellow River in Nanhetao to cultivate land and they could not be abandoned, so they turned to herding cattle, horses and sheep. There are also horses, but they only thought that they had little to do with the cavalry to obtain war horses. At the same time, more than 10,000 infantry were stationed. The combat effectiveness was also not very optimistic, and they were trained while farming. But if there were no other accidents, it would be okay to train here.

On the other side of the Liao Kingdom, Yelu Xiuge and other Liao officials were working hard to restore the people of Yanyun to their vitality, and they did a good job, otherwise there would not be so many Han soldiers fighting to the death for the Liao Kingdom.

At the same time, there is an army in Fengzhou, which is the location of the Southwest Liao Dynasty.

The Khitans must have seen the weakness of the Song army in the northwest, but the two families of Zhewang were ahead, which made the Liao Kingdom dare not move.

However, the Song Dynasty still had a fatal weakness in the northwest...

…………

Han Dewei, the Southwest recruitment envoy of Liao Kingdom, looked at the report at hand.

After Han Delang became Xiao Yanyan’s genuine queen, the Han family became even more favored.

After Han Derang's daughter married Geng Yanyi, she wrote a sentence on her epitaph, Cao Gong assisted the Han Dynasty, and was the opportunity to dominate the world, Yi Yin and Kuang Yin, Shu Ge Tian Xujiao, said that his status in the Liao Kingdom was equivalent to that of Cao Cao and Yi Yin. Therefore, Han Derang's brothers Han Dewei, Han Degong, Han Dechong and others took to the stage one after another. Even after Xiao Yanyan and Han Derang's death, Han Derang's son Yelu Suizheng, and Yelu Suizheng's son Yelu Yuan and Han Dechong's son Han Jingxin, and he still had power in the court and the country.

However, not everyone in the Han family is convinced. He also wants to prove that he is not inferior to his elder brother, including Han Dewei.

After reading it, Han Dewei said, "Bring him up."

His subordinates brought a Hu man over.

Han Dewei asked, "Are you the young chief of the Hook tribe, Hu Kesiming?"

"Report to the king, the little one is just the one."

"Are you a Tuyuhun?" Han Dewei asked again. After years of migration and a small number of marriages, it is difficult to distinguish the various races in Jiashan, and even the so-called Tuyuhun people include Dangxiang people and Tatars. But if you pay attention, you can still see some differences in their clothing.

"The king, the youngest one is a Tuyuhun. My father was blinded by lard. He ignored the power of the Great Liao Dynasty and moved all the 200 tents of the entire tribe to Quyechuan. I advised him not to listen. After arriving at Quyechuan, I realized that he was wrong. There were mostly Dangxiang people and a small number of Tubo people. Where is our Tuyuhun suffering from bullying..."

"That's why you persuaded the tribes to rebel against Song?"

"The king is not rebelling against the Song Dynasty, but the king is interested in it. We are the inner supporters and assisting the king in breaking the prefectures and prefectures. Then take the opportunity of the Song Dynasty and the young ones are willing to be the village guide and take the king to the Song army camp on Hetao. Now the Song army is all new recruits, with loose military discipline and weak combat power..."

"Okay, you go down and rest first." Han Dewei said.

This is indeed a weakness of the Song Dynasty in the northwest.

In some aspects, many tribes migrated and scattered in the Nanhetao, which somewhat offset the power of the heroes of Hengshan.

But the advantage is bound to have an adverse side.

The Qiangs in the northwest made enemies, and the Qiangs in the Jiashan Mountains might not be much better. These tribes were not disbanded, so there were many conflicts in Nanhetao. Fortunately, the Song Dynasty began to train troops in the northwest, with strong military strength and low tax policy of light taxes and low taxes, and all ethnic groups reluctantly obeyed the mediation of the court officers and soldiers.

But this tax policy will definitely not last long. Gradually, the northwest has settled down. The court tried to impose some taxes. The actual tax was very low, but after sharing it, some unfairness arises.

The army familiar with the northwest and had a good combat effectiveness was transferred away, and a group of new recruits came. The policies implemented by the Khitan in Jiashan also had various discounts, and finally some tribes began to get ready.

Hu Kesiming was one of them. Before he came to Fengzhou, he even contacted some tribes near the prefectures and prefectures to form an alliance with him. He also quietly drew the terrain of the prefectures and prefectures and other places into maps and brought them to Fengzhou together to seek credit and reward.

Han Dewei sent a scout to infiltrate the prefecture and inquire.

Because trade between Liao and Song dynasties was blocked, the Jiashan trade route became more and more prosperous. Several scouts successfully sneaked into the rear of the Prefecture and Prefecture, and soon brought good news. Even in anger, Zhe Yuqing even hanged several evil people of all ethnic groups in front of the Prefecture and Prefecture gate to show punishment.

In addition, these scouts also verified a path that Hu Kesiming discovered, a road that no one had noticed before. This road was sparsely populated and there was no fortress. As long as it was done well, it would be possible to successfully drive tens of thousands of troops to the city of Fuzhou within a few days without knowing it.

"What a great opportunity!" Han Dewei said.

The prime minister of the Song Dynasty made Han Dewei a little afraid, so he stayed in the Western Palace and refused to leave. When he mentioned this, Xiao Yanyan and others felt a headache.

Once he was made aware, as long as he transferred back ten thousand light riders who were trained and formed, the opportunity would be lost in the blink of an eye.
