At the end of the summer of the eighth year of assimilation, Li Liangzuo had just returned to Xingqing Mansion on the tenth day, and the main force of the Central Army of the Xia Army stationed in the camp outside Xingqing Mansion had made all the pre-war preparations.
Like always sending troops, Li Liangzuo will be impassioned before every time he sends out troops, and the soldiers of the Central Army look at Li Liangzuo's eyes full of fanatical passion, these soldiers and generals worship Li Liangzuo very much, Li Liangzuo is the existence of the god of war among all the Xia soldiers, they can die for Li Liangzuo without hesitation, as long as Li Liangzuo says a word, they are willing to pay their precious lives one after another.
By the eighth year of assimilation, the central army of Western Xia has expanded to 150,000, in addition to the 100,000 people stationed in Xingqing Mansion, the remaining 50,000 central army Li Liangzuo have sent it to various places, stationed in the border with the border army, these central armies go to the border every year to defend in various places, the central army is stationed in the border two main places, one is the western Anxi Protectorate in the west, and the other is the western region of Youyun occupied by the Xia army in the northeast.
The main force of the Central Army stationed in Xingqing Mansion was all dispatched, including a Heavenly Wolf Heavy Armored Cavalry Division and two Eagle Light Cavalry Divisions and the Flying Tiger Light Cavalry Division, all of which were trained by Li Liangzuo himself, and were the elite of the Xia Army; In addition to the three divisions' personal guard battalions responsible for protecting Li Liangzuo, the sharp fangs of the Xia army were ready to pierce the grassland.
Don't think that Li Liangzuo sent troops to the grassland only this 100,000 troops, in the north of Yinshan Li Liangzuo has been preparing an ambush in the early years, it can be said that this time can come in handy, Li Liangzuo once ordered Li Xiaoren to establish the Anbei Protectorate on the Liao State ceded 500 miles of land, as a bridgehead for the Western Xia to send troops to the grassland, Li Liangzuo had authorized Li Xiaoren to form 30,000 Anbei Army, and allowed Li Xiaoren to win over various tribes on the grassland.
With the strong support of Li Liangzuo, although the Anbei Army was a newly formed border army, its strength was growing rapidly; In order to ensure that all the grassroots officers of the Anbei Army were transferred by Li Liangzuo from the Central Army, and at the same time, this was also to prevent Li Xiaoren from seizing military power, and it was also Li Liangzuo who let Li Xiaoren go.
At the same time that Li Liangzuo sent troops to the grassland, Ji La Siyi also received Li Langzuo's order to send troops, at this time Ji La Siyi, who was already a veteran, can be said to be a rare opportunity for a big war in his life, this time Li Langzuo gave Ji La Siyi's conditions are very relaxed, Li Langzuo will be stationed in the west of the city of Luo Luo Hetao Army, the Central Army and the command of the government soldiers are all handed over to Ji La Siyi, at this time Ji La Siyi under the command of the main force of 120,000 soldiers, plus the government soldiers around the total strength can reach 180,000, This number accounted for one-third of the total strength of the Western Xia.
Time let us speed up, three days later, the main army led by Li Liangzuo has passed through the Yique Pass, through the endless Yinshan Mountains, and entered the Monan grassland, this is the first time Li Liangzuo has entered the grassland area north of the Yinshan Mountain, at this time the grassland has entered an era of competition for hegemony, and Li Liangzuo's arrival has made the already turbulent grassland more complicated.
Li Liangzuo led an army of 100,000 to a small city where Abe's Protectorate was located, not so much a small city, but a camp enclosed with earthen fences, in this endless prairie, everyone who wants to live is basically living a life of chasing water and grass, although Li Xiaoren also wants to break this situation, but because the conditions of the jurisdiction of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate do not allow it at all, if you want to survive here, you can only be like a nomad.
"The last generals, Li Xiaoren, Hua Ma and Mu Zheng, pay a visit to Your Majesty and meet Concubine De Niangniang."
Li Xiaoren, Hua Ma and Mu Zheng knelt together in front of Li Liangzuo's horse and saluted.
Li Liangzuo hurriedly dismounted and helped the two of them up and said, "The two Aiqing have worked hard to defend the northern frontier for me, please get up quickly." ” "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The two thanked Li Liangzuo.
This time in Li Liangzuo followed by Concubine Yeluyue, that is, the princess of the Yue Kingdom of Liao, Yelutri, this is the first time Li Liangzuo took a woman on the expedition, the reason why he took Yeluyue, Li Liangzuo also has his own considerations; Although the Liao State is now divided, the residual power of the Liao State on the grassland still exists, and at the same time, Li Liangzuo can also use the identity of Yelu Yue as the princess of the Yue Kingdom to bring some Liao troops and Khitan tribes under his command.
"Your Majesty, please enter the city," Li Xiaoren said to Li Liangzuo.
Li Liangzuo took Li Xiaoren's hand and said, "Brother Huang entered the city with me." ” Li Liangzuo's actions moved Li Xiaoren very much, although Li Xiaoren is Li Liangzuo's cousin, but now Li Xiaoren is only an Anbei protector, and he doesn't even have a knighthood; This is not that Li Liangzuo is stingy, but in the Western Xia royal family, if you want to get the title, you must have military merits, that is to say, if the children of the Western Xia royal family want to get the title, they must join the army, unless his own father is very capable and can let his son inherit his title, but there are very few people who can get the title in this way, and the inherited title will be reduced.
Li Xiaoren was very moved and said to Li Liangzuo: "How can the last general be so virtuous, how can he be so honored." ” "The imperial brother is stationed in the northern frontier for me, and his hard work and achievements should be like this."
Li Liangzuo comforted Li Xiaoren and said.
After entering the city, Li Liangzuo found that this was not a city at all, and the city was full of tents as far as the eye could see.
After the camp was encamped, the generals of each battalion went to the Great Horde to discuss the matter. ” "Yes, the last general commands."
Li Yi took the military order and said.
"Your Majesty's city is simple, Your Majesty should go to the big tent to rest first," Li Xiaoren said to Li Liangzuo.
Under the leadership of Li Xiaoren, Li Liangzuo came to the best big tent in the city, this big tent was built by Li Xiaoren specially for Li Liangzuo, the big tent is divided into two parts, the front account can be discussed, and the back account can be used for Li Liangzuo to rest; After entering the big tent, Li Liangzuo smelled a smell of mutton, in the center of the big tent is boiling a pot of mutton, this scene is very common on the grassland, cooking meat in the big tent can not only increase the temperature in the big tent, but also can be eaten at any time.
Li Liangzuo walked to the handsome seat and sat down, Ye Luyue sat beside Li Liangzuo very well-behaved, Li Liangzuo said to everyone: "You're welcome, let's go to the countryside and follow the customs, let's sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
They bowed and saluted.
After everyone was seated, Li Liangzuo asked Li Xiaoren: "Brother Huang, tell me about the situation of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate."
Li Xiaoren knelt in front of Li Liangzuo and pleaded: "The last general is guilty, in order to expand the strength of the Anbei Protectorate as soon as possible, the last general has taken in a lot of small tribes, and also gave them military power. ” Li Liangzuo nodded and said: "Brother Huang is indeed at fault in this matter, but it is understandable, if there is no self-protection strength on this grassland, it is estimated that no one is willing to take refuge in us; This time it will be exempted, if there is a next time the royal brother must report to me immediately. ” "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long."
Li Xiaoren kowtowed.
Thank you for the memories and the recommendation of the residual leaves, Tianyu is grateful, and I hope you will support Tianyu a lot
