"Is this a good baby?" Xin Yuanzhi asked.

Wu Song picked up two black stones and knocked them with a clanging sound, saying, "It's not a treasure, iron ore, which can allow the people of more than a dozen nearby villages to have work and eat to live a better life than now." Wu Song didn't know how large the iron ore here is, but just a large area exposed is enough to produce for several years. After all, the production technology is backward and the smelting scale is not large. In addition, Wu Song is not planning to smelte large amounts of iron in the Western Regions. The weapons produced can be equipped with teams. If there are too many, it's useless. As for telling the weapons to those enemy countries in the Western Regions, forget it. There is no need to go to Wu Zhuang and others for potential enemies.

Xin Yuanzhi, a frontier poet, didn't understand this, and said, "I didn't expect this stone to have such a magical effect. Wu Pao Head, do you often write lyrics?"

"Occasionally, I remember writing a poem at the Quancheng Poetry Competition two years ago. Everyone has a high opinion of Li." Wu Song said.

"Master Li? Which Master Li?" Xin Yuanzhi said.

Wu Song said: "Li Qingzhao, Li Daci."

Xin Yuanzhi worshiped and said, "I didn't expect that the head of the martial arts can actually get favor from everyone Li. I have a few poems. Can you send them to everyone Li?"

Wu Song smiled and said, "I mean, she is the honorary editor-in-chief of the China Business Information Agency of Dongping Prefecture. If everyone can appreciate Li and publish it in the newspaper, brother Xin will become famous all over the world."

Xin Yuanzhi's face was flushed with excitement, and hurriedly went to the house to give Wu Song a few good poems. He also wrote a handwritten letter with earnest words. Li Qingzhao's status was like Wu Song's position in the Dongping martial arts industry, and Xin Yuanzhi also hoped to get Li Qingzhao's approval.

Wu Song marked the map and this nameless small village became famous soon. I will only be able to mine iron ore here after the beginning of spring.

Xin Yuanzhi took out the wine he made and said, "Come on, this is the wine made in summer, drink a few glasses."

Xin Yuanzhi wanted to give Luo Ping a drink, but Luo Ping quickly shook his head and said, "I don't drink this thing. It looks red and like chicken blood."

Xin Yuanzhi said: "This wine is very authentic. It was brewed by techniques from the Western Regions, but unfortunately there is no luminous cup."

"Lighting cup?" Wu Song said in surprise, "Is the luminous cup very expensive?"

"A luminous glass of wine costs hundreds of taels of silver, of course it's very expensive."

Wu Song nodded and expressed his understanding. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a bit of economic abnormality. Ten percent of businessmen and officials controlled 70 percent of wealth, forming a fatal gap between the rich and the poor. So if you want to make money, you have to start from these 10 percent of people. The Luminous Cup is one of them.

At this time, Jiao Ting brought the team to find him. When he saw Wu Song, Jiao Ting hurried over and said, "It's all because Jiao Ting is not considerate enough. He shouldn't let his brother come out to drive away the wild wolf."

Wu Song quickly helped Jiao Ting up and said, "Why would my brothers hide behind me in everything? Okay, there is nothing now. We should go back, let's go."

The group arrived in Lanzhou. The Lanzhou branch had already started preparations. They rested in Lanzhou for a night and then continued to rush. The camel team also completed the task and settled the salary to make them busy. Along the way, each of them rode in rotation, and they were very tired when they rushed back to Dongping Mansion at night. They had been thousands of miles apart, which was really tiring.

Wu Song returned to the military camp, and Chao Gai said, "The Chief Minister, the magistrate said that you will go to see him immediately after you come back."

Wu Song: "Do you know what?"

Chao Gai said: "The Western Xia was full of all the battles between the Western Army and the Western Xia. I don't know who recommended our Dongping Prefecture Army to the court."

Wu Song suddenly felt a sudden smile. He was cheated, and the cheating was not easy. The Northwest Imperial Army has always been led by Tong Guan, with a number of as many as 150,000 to 100,000. The Western Army is the strongest team in the Song Dynasty, and has produced many famous generals in combat with the Western Xia for a long time.

Wu Song said: "The general comes to block the water and the soil. I will ask Lord Cheng what the situation is."

When Cheng Wanli saw Wu Song, he started to mutter, saying, "We are being cheated. You offended Gao Qiu too ruthlessly. He will kill you if he seizes the opportunity."

"Is it that serious?" Wu Song asked.

Cheng Wanli said: "There are as many as 300,000 troops on both sides of the Northwest and Xixia wars. Our Dongping Prefecture Army can only take 5,000 people in full battle. How can we go? If you put such a small amount of troops on the battlefield in the northwest, as long as you make a little move in the battle situation, our thousands of people will be done."

Wu Song said: "If you don't go, you'll have to."

"To be honest, the Ministry of War wrote a document approved by the emperor. If it doesn't go, it's like resisting the order, and it's not enough to cut off a few heads." Cheng Wanli said.

Wu Song said: "Will the court give a great reward if he wins the battle on the battlefield of Xixia?"

"If you win a battle, you will naturally give you a reward. However, the Western Army is a natural team. If you bring a three or two thousand troops and horses over, you may not be able to attract attention. I guess the best result is to go over and come back after a while." Cheng Wanli said.

It's only October, and it's only after the Chinese New Year that it's time to be dispatched to Xixia. There's still time to prepare, not to mention that Wu Song is not at the mercy of others. He immediately ordered the artillery factory to seize the time to cast long snake cannons and tiger squat cannons. These small cannons are small, but they are more convenient to carry and load. Another reason is that the Tokyo Imperial Force also has such small cannons, which are not an advanced thing.

Yuan Lang, Ma Xie and Ma Jin were also transferred to the army and were temporarily appointed as deputy generals of the cavalry battalion, following Chao Gai to train cavalry.

The team strengthened training, acted frequently, and was always ready to start the battle in Xixia.

It turns out that this matter was not caused by others, but Gao Qiu. In recent years, there have been frequent border frictions between the Western Xia and the Song Dynasty, and there are few major battles. However, this year, there are droughts and rains. Many places in Xixia are not harvested. The warlike nobles of Xixia thought that the time was coming and led the army to invade the Song Dynasty. Now the Western Army of the Song Dynasty is led by Tong Guan, and Tong Guan is not easy to mess with. They have suffered casualties with the Western Xia army. As the saying goes, children who can cry have milk, and some people will deliberately cause trouble. In this way, Tong Guan wrote to the court and asked to dispatch some local troops to participate in the battle.

Tong Guanzhen didn't know Wu Song of Dongping Prefecture yet. As soon as he proposed Gao Qiu, he reconsidered and asked to send Wu Song of Dongping Prefecture to lead troops there. It was said that Wu Song was also the general who led troops, and more than a dozen deputy generals opposed it.

The emperor was so weak that he followed Gao Qiu's advice and sent the Dongping Prefecture Army to fight in Bianjing, Xixia.

Wu Song had nothing, wasn’t it just a war? He immediately started preparing and was ready to set sail at any time.

Wu Song came to the car shop and told Wu Yong about the matter. Wu Yong said: "There are good and bad, this battle will definitely improve the combat effectiveness of our team."
