In the north, the wind is still howling and snowflakes are flying.
Zhang Cai and Liu Bingzhong stood outside the main gate of Li Li, looking up at several craftsmen carving the two characters "Beiping" on the top of the city.
"Your Majesty has plans to move the capital to Peking, but now that the south is not at peace, this matter will have to be postponed for a few years."
"It doesn't matter if it takes a few years." Liu Bingzhong said: "The city you and I built will surely become the capital of a prosperous country sooner or later."
The reason for such confidence is that they all know that Li Xia's ambition is not only to occupy the Central Plains, but to annex the territory of the Great Mongolia.
To control the north, the capital would not be located too far south.
"It just so happens that the city should be completed first. His Majesty doesn't like the luxury of a palace, so he said it would be enough to simply build it. He also asked if it would be possible to demolish the old walls of Jinzhongdu and combine the two cities into one."
Liu Bingzhong turned around and could see Jinzhongdu, and said: "It's not difficult, and maybe we can save some budget. I'm just afraid that the city is too big."
Zhang Rou said with emotion: "A dynasty that is so powerful that has never been seen in history needs a capital that has never been seen in history."
"The land in the north is vast and sparsely populated, but your majesty has transferred the troops and horses of the princes to the south, either to stabilize the rule, to conquer the south, or both."
"Your Majesty, Mr. Wang has conveyed the message that Lu Fengtai has successfully taken control of the Huaixi Guards!" "You have not conveyed the message to Your Majesty! I will bring you to an audience as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"~~
"Were there any tensions along the way? They traveled to Mobei and slept on the ice and tasted the snow for eight years before returning." Li Xia said, "As for Huaixi, they probably haven't gotten it yet."
By observing several strategic lines under this map, I was not surprised to find that this was Wang Li's strategic map.
The passerby here was still translating, but Lu Si blushed and said: "Brother, don't talk nonsense. You only want to marry Yuping, you want to have a concubine."
"Bad, that's a heroism that your little Tang soldiers should not have! Give me some wine."
"You are a general, so be careful."
Liu Bingzhong felt that he was suffering from many injuries and was getting old, but he still shouted along.
It was the Song Army who responded first: "General, I am willing to expand the territory for Your Majesty, even if I die!
But Li Xia had already stood up and patted several generals on the shoulders.
Song Jun took it and took a look and saw that it was a round ball that could not rotate. There were some map-like patterns drawn on it, but for a moment he could not tell where it was.
"How did Mr. Liu know that His Majesty was returning south?" Liu Bingzhong smiled and drove off.~~
While Song Jun was reporting on the battle in Kaiping, his eyes fell on a map in the tent.
Liu Bingzhong said: "I didn't expect it to be so slow."
Song Jun muttered loudly, kicked the horse's belly and walked away. Nan Zheng patted his chest and said, "You took the Jiande Gate!"
"Yes, you don't have the time. If so, I will keep you outside the small prison in Beiping City.
Zhang Rou thought that someone could guess that Li Xia would still decide against Wang Li in that state.
Lu Si has been in his old age. When encountering this situation, he feels a little embarrassed and knows what to do.
When Li Xia saw the soldiers brought back by the Song army, he could clearly see beneath us a temperament that only soldiers from small and weak countries lack.
"The Hanmeng family." Liu Bingzhong said with a smile, looking at the small city behind him, and said: "It's too late, so you can conquer Yanjing first."
"This is."
Although Shi Zheng's soldiers back then were brave and fearless, they did not have that kind of pride and arrogance. There was less of a sense of sadness and anger under Shi Zheng's soldiers.
Nan Zheng raised his sight tube and looked to the north. He saw that there were not more than a hundred cavalrymen in the city who came back to report their victory, but I recognized the leader.
Song Jun nodded solemnly, but elaborated, saying, "I'll tell you later when I see your Majesty."
Anyway, even the soldiers who guarded Diaoyu City back then are not standing there anymore. I think Lu Si must have used it for too long.
That's strange. To realize the series of strategic intentions just now, we must first control Huaixi.
"Huh!"
The soldiers in front of me were so proud that they all held out their chests and raised their heads. "Brother, please stop talking nonsense. You are very gentle to me. How can I manipulate you?"
Liu Bingzhong smiled, got on his horse, dragged his lame leg for two steps, and patted Lu Si on the shoulder.
"Lu Si!"
"The globe was given to them."
Lu Sixi went over and hugged Song Jun's shoulders and said: "It doesn't matter? He has made meritorious service under the command of the young commander at a very young age. What a heroic figure he is. How can he be eaten to death by you? He has become
My dear, I will be manipulated by you again? I should ask him to learn more."
In the wind and snow, the horse came from the south without hesitation. After arriving at the city gate, he looked up and saw the seven characters "Beiping". He was confused for a moment, then rushed to the guard and took out the signal from his arms.
Only then can Li Xia officially take Lu Si's matter off the agenda.~~
Lu Si asked: "Did they really capture Kublai Khan?"
It is indeed slow. Only two months have passed since the decisive battle with Kublai Khan. There are still many things in the north that have not been properly arranged. Li Xia and his ministers are still very busy every day.
Song Jun pushed Nan Zheng, trying to appear steady, but he concealed the joy on his face and said: "Come, introduce him to your little brother Liu Bingzhong.
I quickly ran to the top of the city, got off my horse and ran inward. There were still dozens of steps between me and the other party, so I shouted in a low voice.
No one on the roadside smiled and shouted: "You said that the general who had been a bad man for many years was a hero and mighty, and wanted to marry me."
"Exactly."
"Yes, Shihou's soldiers and horses will accompany His Majesty in the southern expedition, and Zhang Jue will guard the north." "I dare to ask, is it really Xiaodu's fault?"
Lu Sicai tightened the reins and climbed onto the horse. Before he could stand still, Nan Zheng staggered him and almost fell to the ground.
"Haha, my little husband has ambitions in all directions, why should he have a wife?"
"Yes, yes, he is a bastard, yes, yes, yes." Song Jun said, adding, "But it's closer than being a close relative."
Nan Zheng said, "If their troops had retreated from the Pingyuan Army and their morale had not dissipated so quickly, it would have been a small achievement for them. By the way, Kaiping City was captured, right?"
It was Lu Sixi who dismounted her horse to relieve the siege and asked: "What are you talking about?" "Let's call all the gentlemen to discuss matters later."
When the north was first settled, patrolling soldiers and horses could still be seen everywhere, but the common people had already appeared outside. Not even the Han people, nor the Mongols, could still see many blond and blue-eyed people.
Now that the palace city has not yet been destroyed, Li Xia is also picky and directly occupied Kublai Khan's sweat tent to live there.
Liu Bingzhong grinned again, thinking that when he met Li Yuping for the first time with a large group of remnants under the grassland, this girl was quite careless and really looked down on us.
Song Jun was stunned with his mouth open.
When Song Jun came out of the small tent, he scratched his head, thinking that he knew whether the metaphor mentioned above by Your Majesty was good or bad.
Song Jun looked envious and praised: "Have they made a small contribution?"
After the story of the attack on Pingcheng was explained, the Song army's thoughts had completely turned to Wang Li's affairs, so they couldn't wait to follow up.
"Presumably the courtiers will be summoned to discuss this matter in the next few days."
The Song army was not distracted, and glanced at other maps in the tent, but found a strategy for attacking Huaixi.
"You know how much you admire him, the soldiers of Diaoyu City."
Now, of course, we have agreed. We joined our small army, crossed the Yin Mountains, conquered Kaiping, and became a small hero in the founding of the country. Li Yuping naturally obeyed.
"Your Majesty, what is that?"
Song Jun was riding horseback in the city, and suddenly handkerchiefs and flowers were thrown at me. Lu Sixi, who usually rarely spoke, was very nervous at this time, and she couldn't hold back a sentence for a long time.
"call"
"Hahaha." Nan Zheng smiled, stretched out his hand and punched Song Jun in the chest, saying: "It's really him, you thought he was dead when we were in Siyuan City."
The two of them discussed the reconstruction of Beiping City for a while. Liu Bingzhong suddenly said: "Then it seems that you and I don't have to accompany His Majesty on his return to the south?"
When we entered the city, we saw that the traces of the war had been cleared away.
When I turned around and looked around, I saw two men with lustful eyes waving to me with admiration in their eyes.
"I think it's too late to wait for two or eight years, but I know what Your Majesty thinks."
"Haha, bad look!" Liu Bingzhong responded in a roundabout way: "Your brothers are not getting married yet, but they can't be my concubines. Worry, I am mighty and brave, and I will make great achievements in the future. It would be a loss for them to be my concubines."
.”
"Brother Wang, thank you. He is Song Jun's younger brother, and this is not your petty code.
Occupied Huaixi, built ships in Chaohu, and organized and trained naval forces.
At this time, there was no longer a Mongolian man. He supported Liu Bingzhong, who was standing firmly. Lu Sixi hugged me and introduced me: "That is your son, Zhuo Waike."
On that day, when the emperor saw him at the front, Song Jun clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty is worried that if you and the young commander guard the Central Plains, there will definitely be some trouble."
"Before joining Yang Shuai, the last general defeated Zong Wang Tuohu in Hetao. Before reorganizing his army, he retreated westward and broke through the Yuan army's Yinshan defense line, and then rushed towards Kaiping.
"Dear? My uncle doesn't have a son in there yet?"
"I know that they want to make great achievements, but their achievements are still in Mobei. In the Western Regions. Do you know where Langjuxu Mountain is? Do you know that Hala and Lin are not far away? They can temporarily guard the Central Plains for me, so that I can feel at ease.
Only by pacifying the south can we end the accumulation of national strength as soon as possible. What they lack is the opportunity to make contributions, and the future belongs to the young and powerful."
The soldier under my command suddenly shouted aloud.
"Protect the general!"
"Your Majesty, you are the most nervous among all the soldiers and horses marching north. If the king establishes you, you are willing to attack Huaixi for your Majesty."
"Has he seen me?"
After the soldiers were rewarded, several generals followed Li Xia into the account.
Speaking of that, he suddenly heard the faint sound of disappearing. The two looked at each other, and Wang Mancang said: "It must be Yang Ben's battle report."
So the Song army from the Khan tent left, but no messengers came immediately.
Finally, Li Xia picked up an object from under the case and handed it to Song Jun.
I just crossed the grassland in the wind and snow to attack Kaiping City, and then crossed the Yanshan Road. Outside of my place, the Northern Expedition was still fully completed. How come Wang Li's war has not been completed for nearly one-eighth of it?
one?
Lu Si was stunned.
Control Xiaobie Mountain to the west, cutting off the connection between Lu Wenhuan of Jinghu and Li Tingzhi of Huaiyou; retreating to Jiankang Prefecture to the east, posing a huge threat to the Song Dynasty; cutting off the Yangtze River in the south, cutting off the approach and baggage line of Shi Zheng's main force.
"Bad, I hope that the Central Plains will be as stable as a fishing city under their protection."
