In the first year of Yuanyou in the Song Dynasty, in the first year of Yizhiping in the Western Xia Dynasty, the September month was already ugly (the tenth day of the lunar month).

After urging the name of Juewei Ming, the traces of the Southern Barbarian cavalry that appeared inexplicably have not been found.

A bad news came from Shizhou.

Liang Yixing, the supervisor of the Shizhou Xiangyou Army Supervisor, sent an envoy to inform him that Liu Changzuo, the strategic envoy of the Southern Barbarians, had led his army to break through the fortress of the Dabai Gao Kingdom in the Suizhou area. The elite troops of the Southern Barbarians on the Fuyan Road had gained the power to act freely.

Liang Yixing had no choice but to lead his army to retreat to the fortress Wuyan on the northern foot of Hengshan Mountain (Wuyan City cannot be verified, I only know that it is located in the northern foot of Hengshan Mountain, probably in Jingbian County today).

Now, the southern barbarian army on the Fuyan Road can continue to move forward and capture Wuyan.

Once this is the case, the southern barbarian army on Fuyan Road will gain complete strategic initiative!

Because, a few years ago, Shen Kuo and Zhong Yan, the governor of the Southern Barbarians, seized Wuyanhou and began the Yongle City strategy.

At the same time, he can also leave Dongchuan from Yanzhou, take the Dingbian Road of the Tang Dynasty from the south, surround Baibao and Jintang, and join the Southern Barbarians on Huanqing Road to encircle the Weiming army!

You can go west from Yanzhou and pass through the Guoxinyi Road of Dabai Gaoguo (the Western Xia delegation basically took this route into the Song Dynasty), and then headed straight to Hongzhou and Youzhou, and then took Xiazhou from Youzhou.

Therefore, Liang Yixing had no choice. He could only shrink his troops across the board after his defeat, retreat to Wuyan, and ask for help from Xiazhou in the rear.

I hope that the Xiazhou defenders can come to support from the Wuding River.

Otherwise, once Wuyan is lost, the Fuyan Road of the Southern Barbarians will gain the right to freely move east of the entire Wuding River.

By then, the entire strategic pattern will collapse.

The prime minister of Lanzhou may have to abandon Lanzhou immediately, then raise his troops to fight another decisive battle like Yongle City with the Southern Barbarians on the northern foot of Hengshan Mountain!

And this time, it is probably impossible for the Southern Barbarians to make another mistake like Yongle City!

They will definitely choose a place with water and build a fortress!

If so, even if the Southern Barbarians can be forced back in the end, how many people will die?

Therefore, Liang Yixing’s meaning is very clear - I am more important here!

For the sake of the Dabai Gaoguo, you should ask for blessings for yourself!

Please forgive me for not being able to protect your butt!

I don't have the ability to protect myself!

After Zhi Juewei's name was obtained, he was shocked.

He quickly ordered the troops confronting the Song army in Dashun City and Huaian Town Zhuli District, gradually retreating.

At the same time, he also sent the head of the Youzhou wealthy family, Shangluo, who was the leader of the Luo family, and personally led the cavalry of the Luo family to leave Baibao City and set up defenses in the direction of Dejing Village to monitor the Zhouhe River Basin and prevent the Song army from coming out of this direction and packing his dumplings.

"At the beginning of the time, the Prime Minister allowed me to come to Youzhou to preside over the attack on Huanqing Road..." At this time, Zhajueweiming felt cold all over and murmured to himself: "I'm afraid there is a plan to feed the southern barbarians with me and my three thousand troops, as well as the tribes of Youzhou!"

"This is cutting the flesh and feeding the wolf!"

"Use my flesh and blood from the tribes of Youzhou to hold back the main forces of the Southern Barbarians and Shaanxi, and buy time for them to attack Lanzhou!"

When I pulled the name of Juewei, my pupils suddenly turned red.

Because, this is very, very possible.

The Zhajue family was a wealthy family in Ganzhou.

Although they were Dangxiang people, the tribes have been active in Guazhou and Ganzhou, so they inevitably intermarried with the Uighurs and had Uighur blood!

For the Liang family in power in Xingqing Prefecture, the Zhajue family was actually a vassal state.

Once he dies here, the elites of our family will also donate them here.

Liang Yibi was able to successfully recapture Lanzhou, and even forced the Southern Barbarians to negotiate.

Then for the Liang family, they can be open and upright, using his charge of losing their troops and insulting the country, taking advantage of the great damage to the vitality of the Zoujue family, they will turn the Zoujue clan into a vassal of the Liang family, and even annex it!

In this way, the Liang family can develop their power to Guazhou, Shazhou, and Ganzhou, and control the Silk Road, a golden trade channel that lays golden eggs.

The wealthy families in Youzhou, like the Zhajue family, are also very independent forces in the Dabai Gao Kingdom.

Youzhou was originally the fundamental place when the founding of the Dabai Gao Kingdom. When the Jingzong was founded, it all depended on the support of the Haomen of Youzhou.

The fundamental place where there were no collectors in the world was in Youzhou.

Although no collector has been executed, the wealthy families such as the Luo family, the Qing family, the Si family, and the Su Yi family are still powers that cannot be ignored in the Dabai Gao family.

Bubazi, which is on par with Tie Yaozi and Poxijun, was basically selected from these wealthy families.

Since no collectors were uprooted, the various ministries of Youzhou have always had barriers to Xingqing Prefecture.

Especially for the Liang family, it poses a great threat and is an unstable factor.

At this time, Zhajueweiming also remembered the chaos in Xingqing Mansion last year.

There was once a rumor that it was Wuzhang who sent people to contact the various divisions of Youzhou and ordered the divisions to lead troops to serve the king!

Thinking of this, Jueweiming's heart became colder and colder.

An emotion called being betrayed and betrayed is surging in my heart.

"No wonder...no wonder..."

"Liang Yibu wants to send relatives like Liang Yixing to Shizhou, but he put a famous general like Wei Mingliangming on the left wing!"

"Liang Yiqiu made up his plan early in the morning!"

From the perspective of Jueweiming, everything can be explained now.

Why did Liang Yibi agree to come to Youzhou to take revenge and preside over the attack on the Nanman Huanqing Road instead of Weizhou, which had been responsible for confronting the Nanman Huanqing Road?

It’s really because he is the old empress dowager’s son-in-law and Liang Yi-bing’s brother-in-law. He wants him to make achievements and avenge his shame?

hehe!

It was just to let him fight the thunder.

Otherwise, why is Liang Yixing, the Liang family, who is in charge of Shizhou and protects his flanks? Instead of being a long-time general like Wei Mingliangming?

He, Liang Yixing, had he fought any tough battles besides bullying the Uighurs?

The answer is no!

Just a relationship account!

It’s a pity that he was so confused by hatred that he thought that the new strategy of the Southern Barbarian Huanqing Road was unknown and could take the opportunity to win merits from him!

But I never thought that there are no simpler people who can be promoted in the Southern Barbarians?

It's ridiculous that he laughed at the southern barbarians at that time, so he looked down on it, ignored the danger, and even fell into the current situation.

"No...no..."

"I have to find life!"

"I must return to Ganzhou with the elite headquarters of the Zhajue family!"

These three thousand elite soldiers are the confidence of the Jue family.

If they were all sent here, the Zhajue family would never recover from now on.

Even if he dies, these three thousand men will never be lost!

But what should he do?

Zhu Weiming thought anxiously and thought.

The situation he is facing is very dangerous now.

In Shizhou to the south, Liang Yixing, who should have protected the safety of the White Leopard River flank, has completely reduced his troops one after another.

His flanks were completely exposed to the elite soldiers of the Southern Barbarians.

Once the elite soldiers of the southern barbarians on Fuyan Road did not choose to continue attacking Wuyan, but headed south from Suizhou through Yanzhou, detoured from Dongchuan, surrounded the direction of Baibao River, and cut off his connection with Youzhou.

His tens of thousands of soldiers were surrounded by the three villages of Bai Bao, Jin Tang and Houqiao.

Just when I was thinking about the name of Juewei.

A familiar voice came from outside the tent: "Can the military supervisor be there?"

The other party called him several times before he came back to his senses and replied, "I'm here."

"Su Yili asked for advice." said the person outside the tent.

Zhujueweiming finally remembered who the other party was?

Su Yili, the head of Su Yi family, is also the largest tribal leader in Yuzhou.

At the same time, Su Yi's family was also the leader of a powerful tribal alliance in the Dabai Gao Kingdom - the so-called Su Wei Jiu surname.

They are the nine tribes headed by Su Yi’s family and active in the Wuding River Basin.

"Please come in!" Zhajueweiming now needs to win the support of these Youzhou nobles, so he naturally put his attitude very low. He immediately stood up and opened the door for the other party himself.

Su Yili was a Dangxiang nobleman in his thirties, but he did not have a hairpin, but instead of a felt hat and a marten coat, he walked in like this. When he saw Zhajueweiming, the two of them asked about the ceremony, Zhajueweiming and asked, "The military lord is here, but have you heard about Shizhou?"

"Yeah!" Su Yi Yi nodded slowly: "Now, people from all departments are in panic, so I'd like to ask the military supervisor to make an idea."

"Are we going to fight or leave?"
