Chapter 55 Yanzhou is in danger

"Still thinking about the girl under the moon?" He Libo didn't know when he appeared next to Wang Pang, holding a cloak in his hand. It was already approaching the Double Ninth Festival, and it was already chilly in the northwest region at night.

Wang Pang didn't answer. At this moment, he wished he had a cigarette on hand to calm his thoughts.

He Libo put his arm on the edge of the city wall, looked in the same direction with him, and said: "I'm still really puzzled. Sometimes you are smarter than anyone else, but sometimes you don't understand as well as us."

many."

Wang didn't answer. He knew in his heart that being clever was just a little clever, but he was just taking advantage of modern people.

He Libo sighed and said, "Oh, you, you may have become confused now. I can tell. You won't be willing to go to Xixia."[

Wang Pang asked: "You said the woman in white you saw today was under the moon?"

He Libo said: "The stature is similar, but how could Miss Yuexia become the White Stone God of Xixia?"

"The most important thing now is not this. Look," he pointed to the surroundings of the camp. On the surrounding open ground, in addition to the river that was faintly visible glowing under the moonlight, there were also several households with fields.

"Does Brother know about the dangers of Yanzhou?"

"Yanzhou is heavily guarded, what's the risk?" He Libo asked puzzledly.

"Now Xixia soldiers have repeatedly attacked the border residents, and the soldiers here have become numb. Anyone who comes is regarded as robbery and harassment, and they hide in the city and watch coldly. This is like a wolf coming. Once it comes, it is not a wolf, but if it comes twice, it is still not a wolf.

, even if the wolf does come the third time, the defenders will be caught off guard."

"Secondly, the border has been repeatedly disturbed, and the border residents seek shelter. If Xixia really comes calling, can the border residents help?"

"Third, if you look at Hengshan behind Xixia, you can overlook Yanzhou from the mountain. The military camps are clearly visible. If Hengshan is not captured, then the Xixia army will take advantage of the cover of summer trees to gather and swoop down. These few outside Yanzhou City

The stronghold will be destroyed as soon as it is attacked, and the entire Yanzhou will become an isolated city."

When He Libo saw that it was indeed what Wang Pang said, he couldn't help asking anxiously, what should he do? Wang Pang ordered He Libo to invite Master Zhong to come to the city to talk. After a while, Zhong Yi came as expected, and there was someone behind him.

The follower is Xiao Jianzhong.

Wang Pang narrated his observations to Zhong Yi, and Zhong Jianzhong leaned on the wall with his feet up and looked at him in a dignified manner. He Libo thought that Zhong Yi admired or agreed with Wang Pang, but Zhong Yi looked at Wang Pang carefully.

Hui asked: "If everything Wang Pangziruo said makes sense, this is exactly what I am worried about, but I don't know why you don't speak like the magistrate or the official who guards this place, but to me, a powerful magistrate."

Woolen cloth?"

The king smiled and said: "If those guards were really serving the border, what would they be like now? Besides, would they tell the court that there are so many crises in Yanzhou right now?"

Zhong Yi said: "Even if you tell this county, I only have a few dozen soldiers and temporarily adjustable rural soldiers. In addition to strengthening patrols in the city, matters at the border villages are beyond our reach."

When he said this, Wang Pang heard that in addition to a little helplessness, there was also a trace of resentment.

Zhong Jianzhong pouted and said, "That's not what dad and my fifth uncle said."

Wang Pang looked at Jianzhong after hearing this. He patted Jianzhong's head, leaned down and asked, "Who is your fifth uncle?"

Zhong Jianzhong said: "My fifth uncle is very powerful. His surname is Er, and his courtesy name is Zheng!" When Jianzhong said this, he put up a military general holding a sword, and the clear homonyms were loud and clear.

Wang Bian smiled, looked at Zhong Yi and said: "Your fifth uncle is not as powerful as your grandpa. Mr. Zhong, what Jianzhong said is not a false reputation. Although he is just a county magistrate for the time being, I believe that in the future, people from a famous family will not let others go."

underestimate."

At this moment, he was looking at the cuteness of the construction, and secondly, he was also looking at the reflection of the planting ceremony. The planting ceremony was silent and the king continued to say: "Your Excellency is also responsible for the official work of encouraging farmers, and the third item in this official work of encouraging farmers is

Investigate officials and handle land lawsuits. Have you forgotten the decree of Renzong in the second year of Tiansheng's reign?"

Zhong Yi took a breath of air-conditioning. Although Wang Bian's tone was calm, he seemed to be implying that he had neglected his duty. However, after several detailed discussions, the two of them were quite angry. What he said just now was also an angry statement. So he thought about it and wanted to say

To: "What if I were asked to impeach the commander-in-chief of the garrison?"[

Wang Pang said: "If there is no need to impeach, just write a letter explaining the situation at the border."

Zhong Yi said yes: "Okay, I will do my best even if it results in consequences." After saying that, he turned around to meet the county government office, and Jianzhong trotted back behind him.

Wang Pang looked at the backs of the two men and couldn't help but sigh, Xiaozhong had such ambitions at this time, no wonder he was praised by future generations when he grew up.

He Libo asked in confusion: "Why did my brother do this? What if the emperor ignores it?"

Who would be more conflicted than Wang Pang? He does not want war at all. Hundreds of years later, there will be no national boundaries in Hengshan, but in exchange for a formal war, the war can now be stationed on Hengshan, which can prevent the Xixia from coming back in the future.

, look at the people around us, they haven’t had a peaceful life for many years.

Just as He Libo expected, the memorial arrived in the hands of Renzong within three or four days. The memorial not only raised several dangers in Yanzhou, but also mentioned that the little emperor of Xixia had just checked the political affairs, and it was inevitable that there would be changes or conquests to conquer the masses.

Heart.

Song Renzong frowned after reading the memorial, closed the memorial and looked around the court, "Do you have any opinions on the matter of Yanzhou?" He asked, and the ministers looked at each other. Some people said that Yanzhou's garrison was well-equipped, and it was expected that he would be able to

Withstood the Xixia troops. Besides, this was just the worry of the county magistrate. The memorial was put aside with the words of Supervisor Shi Zhicong: "The matter is withdrawn from the court."

Something unexpected happened to Wang Pang, what he and Zhong Yi were worried about happened. Wang Pang went to the horse market every day, hoping to see that familiar figure again, but he never saw it again. Instead, he saw the Xixia soldiers on the opposite side of the mountain.

The area of ​​the mountain occupied by the camp turned out to be larger. Wang Pang observed for a day and found that the number of camps had increased. He was a little confused. Did it happen as he expected? Or had Yuexia defected to Xixia and revealed his thoughts?

This thought was just a flash, and I quickly gave it up. At least now I can't distrust Yue Xia.

When he received an urgent report from the border garrison, Xixia appeared on Hengshan and increased its garrison. Renzong couldn't sit still, and he thought of what Zhong Yi said. So he asked again: "Do you have any good strategies for Yanzhou?"

"

The court was silent. Renzong looked at the ministers holding the wat board with both hands, but all of them had their heads lowered and remained silent. He couldn't help but think of a few years ago, when there was a border or rebellion, there was always one person who would stand up.

He came out to take orders, but now this person is no longer here.

He looked at Han Qi and said, "Mr. Han, you were once the deputy envoy of Shaanxi Economic Strategy and Appeasement, and the envoy of Shaanxi Fourth Route Economic Strategy and Appeasement. What are your plans for Yanzhou?"

When Han Qi saw it, he asked himself, how could Han Qi not know the situation in Yanzhou? It was just a rare war. Moreover, although he was a privy envoy, he was a civil servant with military power, not to mention that only two people could lead troops in the northwest.

To convince everyone, one is to die Zhong Shiheng, and the other is to die Di Qing.

It is not enough to lead soldiers only with literary talents. Only when the soldiers follow them wholeheartedly will they be willing to fight on the battlefield. Han Qi is a veteran. Any civil servant who has gone to the northwest to manage the military camp is like Fan Yong, and Fan Zhongyan is doing political achievements.

Or just use strategy to consolidate the city and use real swords and guns to seize the mountain. Han Qi will not wade into this muddy water.

After thinking for a long time, Privy Councilor Han Qi said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be too anxious. But this kind of ceremony comes from a famous family. I think the Emperor can send an order to put him to use and take over on the spot, or maybe this person has the ability."

Only then can we defend Yanzhou."

After hearing this, Renzong had no choice but to do so, so he sent the edict-promulgating officer to Yanzhou and appointed Zhongyi as: "The Yongxing military road pacification envoy, the security army, horse and infantry commander all know Yanzhou."

Zhong Yi received the imperial decree and thanked him, sent off the official who issued the decree and took office. This was supposed to be a good thing, but standing on the city wall, he didn't look very happy.

He made an appointment with the king to meet him on the city wall of Yanzhou. Looking at the barracks of Xixia soldiers stationed in the mountains opposite, he said: "Two or three thousand elite soldiers of Yanzhou are distributed along the border and in the prefecture and county capitals. Jinmingzhai is now in front of us.

There are less than 5,000 troops in the upper city. Judging from the number of camps on the other side's mountain, the opponent's strength is at least 3,000. I don't know if there are follow-up troops behind the mountain."

He Libo was already gearing up, "Brother, what do you think? Why haven't you told Mr. Zhong to take Hengshan?"

Zhong Yi also had this intention. They looked at Wang Pang, and in Wang Pang's mind, the scene of that day when Zhong Jianzhong was just a servant in front of the stone in his house.

Now it has become a confrontation, and there is another thing that makes the capture of Hengshan imminent. The Xixia soldiers came to rob the property of the people on the border. They did not expect that the Song Dynasty camp, which had never ignored them, suddenly came out with officers and soldiers. They had been robbed all the time.

The common people also uncharacteristically fought back with shovels, axes and pickaxes. At this time, the Xixia soldiers were dumbfounded and were beaten back.

Now the soldiers in the Xixia camp were honest, but when they looked back at the camp on the mountain, they saw no movement at all after being stationed there for so many days.[

The Song camp here is also strange. Wang Pang doesn't know that on that day, Ma Shi saw the man who looked like Yue Xia from a distance. The Xixia soldiers had already gone to Hengshan, and at this time Yue Xia had been taken to Xingqing, the first county of Xingzhou in Xixia.

At the mansion, the Xixia soldiers who stayed on the mountain were waiting for the arrival of the coach Liang Yimi who replaced Leng Qing.

Liang Yi came here to use this military attack on Hengshan to offer a great gift to his sister Liang, who had just become the Queen of Xixia. He wanted to take advantage of the terrain to go down the mountain and attack Yanzhou with tigers.

Note: Supervise and promote officials and handle farmland lawsuits. As mentioned above, the agricultural envoys have the important power of "taking full charge of all farmland matters". In addition, they also have the power of officials. In September of the fourth year of Tianxi, an edict was issued to "transfer all roads."

The envoys and deputy envoys, the envoys to encourage farmers, each hold official posts, and the two officials of the prefecture and county, the magistrates of the capital, and the county magistrates are limited to sign their names within ten days for hearing." [41] In the sixth month of the second year of Tiansheng (1024), Renzong agreed that "from now on.

Transshipment, production and transportation, promotion of punishments and prisons, deputy envoys to farmers, acquaintances to the state army, general sentencing, and jurisdiction, all supervisors of Chongban and above, and orders to report internal positions in the department, state and county officials...

Transshipment, production and transportation, and the two deputy envoys and deputy envoys to encourage farmers and farmers will be punished and implemented in accordance with the regulations." [42] There is also the responsibility of handling land disputes and appeals: "Zhongjiang is a county with 30,000 households in Zi, and there are 30,000 households in Zhongjiang.

There are many teeth, and the land is poorly divided, the debates in battles, and the complaints of invasion and invasion are over. There is a sudden chaos, whips are exchanged, and those who are imprisoned with weapons in the court will die in vain, and they will not be tired of their wishes.
