"Military between the countries?" Han Xiaozhou was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that China is no longer unified, but the countries.

The New Zhou, Western Song, and Eastern Song are the Three Kingdoms! There are also two countries in the north, two countries, including Jin and Xi (the country of bleakness), the three countries in the west, the three countries in the west, and the Jiaozhi country in the south, and maybe there is also a Nanyang country.

This is almost the same as the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms!

Why has the Song Dynasty reached a point of falling apart?

Thinking of the fall of the Song Dynasty, Han Xiaozhou was so sad that he almost burst into tears. He finally managed to hold it back and remembered something again.

"There are still tens of thousands of soldiers under Zong Rulin's command, all of whom are loyal to the Song Dynasty..." As he spoke, Han Xiaozhou sighed.

The Song Dynasty, which was loyal to the righteous men in Handan City, has now been divided into two!

"As long as Zong Rulin is willing to let the city go, I can discuss with the head of state and let them go south to Xiangyang." Wu Haogu had actually discussed with his son a long time ago. "The Supreme Emperor is in Xiangyang now, so he must have a confidant to defend him!"

It doesn’t make any sense to eliminate Zong Ze’s tens of thousands of people, so it’s better to let them go and vote for Zhao Ji.

If Zhao Ji gets tens of thousands of reliable armed forces, he will become a force independent of the Western Song Dynasty.

Han Xiaozhou breathed a sigh of relief. The troops in Handan City were also his. If he could lead Handan's troops south with Zong Ze, he would still be able to summon wind and rain when he arrived at Xiangyang Prefecture.

No matter how bad it is, you can still have a piece of land to become a local emperor... After more than ten years of local emperors, they have become accustomed to living above others and giving orders.

"Okay!" Han Xiaozhou said, "Then I'll go to Handan to ensure that I can convince Zong Rulin."

"Okay, then just say a decision." Wu Haogu smiled, "I will go and tell Sanlang immediately, asking him to order the Dujun Massachusetts to stop besieging Handan City."

...

When Wu Haogu and Han Xiaozhou were drinking and having fun, his son Wu Yijiu met Gao Lian, the Minister of Rites in the Head of State, at the Head of State.

Gao Qiu's brother is now a diplomat in the Great Zhou Republic. Oh, no, he is an internal fellow. Because he has always been in charge of the relationship with Xia countries like the Song Dynasty and Xiliang, which is internal fellowship, not diplomacy.

The diplomacy of the Great Zhou Dynasty was in charge of Fan Zhiwen, another minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Gao Neijia's family came today to serve on a mission to Xiliang. Gao Yaokang from Lingzhou was Gao Lian's nephew, and Zhang Li from Xiliang was Gao Lian's best friend.

It would be perfect for him to go to Xiliang to persuade Zhang Li to mediate the war in the Central Plains.

Moreover, most Zhang Li also needs to interfere in the Central Plains war and improve his own status.

Xiliang was nominally a vassal of the Song Dynasty. If the Song Dynasty was still unified, the status of this vassal was naturally undisputed. The Song Dynasty, which had 300,000 new troops, was not something that Xiliang, with only tens of thousands of cavalry, could deal with.

But the situation is different now. The Song Dynasty is a bit disastrous. Zhangli of Xiliang will definitely start to think carefully.

"First of the People's Republic of China, do you think Zhang Li wants to take advantage of the situation and send troops to attack the Western Song Dynasty?"

In the General Office of the Head of State, Gao Lian raised his own question, "If Zhang Li wants to send troops to attack the Western Song Dynasty, what position should our country take? Should we allied with it, or demand that the Western Liang surrender?"

Wu Yijiu thought about it and shook his head, "Can the military strength of Xiliang beat the Western Song Dynasty? We sent more than 600,000 troops to defeat the Song State! How many people are there in Zhangli? Is there 50,000?

Mr. Gao, if Zhang Li really has inappropriate thoughts, you should stop it as much as possible. After the retro reforms of the Western Song Dynasty were completed, they may have a strong desire to expand... Eastern Song, Western Liang, and Dali may all become targets of the Western Song Dynasty's invasion. Therefore, Zhang Li is best to recognize the reality and maintain its relationship with the Western Song Dynasty as much as possible.

If you really want to fight, Zhang Li’s Liangzhou Holy See is no match for the Western Song court at all!”

Wu Yijiu didn't know much about military affairs, but the military commander and the Doctorate had both the "Zhiliang faction" and were still very clear about the strength of Xiliang.

As a closed and backward religious knight country, Xiliang did not keep up with the progress of Zhou and Song dynasties, and its military strength has stopped for many years. The progress of Zhou and Song dynasties is based on the great development of workshop handicrafts. Where is there any workshop handicrafts in Xiliang? There is no foundation at all, how can it be developed?

Moreover, there were also layers of feudal divisions in Xiliang. The military citizens of the Great Zhou and the retro that the Western Song Dynasty were about to be implemented were actually not real feudalism. Because real feudalism must have layers of feudal divisions, rather than the state directly controlling military citizens. The system of Zhou and Western Song is actually a variant of the military service of the Chinese people, and at the same time it is accompanied by a relatively advanced military academies. This military system is more inclined to modern **** rather than the ancient feudal system.

However, in Xiliang, which has a vast territory, inconvenient transportation and backward economy, it is almost impossible to establish a Chinese system. Even military academies are difficult to maintain. At least it is impossible to establish a high-level and large-scale military education system like the New Zhou of the Song Dynasty.

What is truly suitable for Xiliang is actually layers of feudalism.

Xiliang was originally big and poor, Zhang Li was very warlike. Since he took power, he has been expanding to the outside world and conquered the vast snowy plateau.

If we look at the area of ​​the ruling land, Western Liang was more than those of the New Zhou, Western Song and Eastern Song.

However, such a large and poor country cannot afford the corresponding bureaucratic team, and it is impossible to learn from the Great Zhou Dynasty to establish a republic with a referendum, or learn from the Eastern Song Dynasty to establish a dozen states.

So Zhang Li had to build a "school district system" to manage his country.

The so-called "school district system" is certainly not a school district for key primary schools or key middle schools. The real meaning is the military district system. Because Xiliang is a country established based on the education regiment, it likes to package the army and regime into colleges and academies.

The school district system means packaging the military district into a school district. The specific approach is to replace the prefectures and counties with school districts, implement the unity of military and political affairs, and to rule with the grand clerk who is actually the general.

Xiliang has thirteen school districts including Hexi, Yizhou, Xizhou, Shule, Khotan, Kucha, Yanqi, Qingtang, Qiangtang, Luxue, Guge, Mage, and Chuanbian.

He also expanded the Tianli Knights to 50,000 large number of tribal heroes conquered by Zhangli's army, and became knights after converting to Tianli.

Fifty thousand knights were placed in thirteen school districts respectively. The knights allocated land and occupied serfs according to their official positions. Except for the few free people engaged in industry and commerce, almost all the working people of Xiliang Kingdom were included in the "military district knight" system.

However, the Liangzhou Holy See only has enough control over the Hexi Military Region, and its control over the other 12 military regions has gradually weakened.

Therefore, although Xiliang is known to have 50,000 cavalry, the Liangzhou Holy See can concentrate on the external expedition to 20,000 cavalry.

This number of people is even harder to fight in Lingzhou, let alone the Western Song Dynasty.

...

Gao Lian, with his mission, escorted by a team of Xi knights, crossed the Yellow River and entered the Hetao grassland through the chaotic Datong Prefecture and Shuozhou, and then headed to Xiliang.

The ruler of Xiliang, Tianli Zi Zhangli, was getting off a ferry boat and then standing on the ferry pier outside Lingzhou City.

He came to Lingzhou to meet Gao Yaokang for the chaotic Eastern situation.

There were also 10,000 Western Liang Iron Cavalry who accompanied him!

However, the Iron Cavalry did not cross the river, and Zhang Li just brought a few guards across the Yellow River.

"Tianliko, I've been looking forward to you!"

The middle-aged Gao Yaokang looks very similar to his late father Gao Qiu, both of whom are handsome men. He stands half a head taller than Zhang Li, and is quite powerful. But looking at his anxious appearance and his tone of speaking, he obviously regards Zhang Li as his backbone.

"Oh, I fought with the Jurchens, but I didn't get any advantage, and I missed the time." Zhang Li just shook his head. "How is the situation on the east side?"

When a war broke out in the Central Plains, Xiliang and the Jin Kingdom of the Jurchens fought another fight to compete for the Hetao Irrigation Area.

The Jin Kingdom, who lost Aguda, could still mobilize more than 50,000 elite troops, but Zhang Li only had 20,000 people, and could not defeat them at all.

However, after winning, Wu Qimai did not pursue Zhang Li relentlessly. Instead, he proposed to marry a marriage and marry his granddaughter to Zhang Li's son, and expressed his willingness to convert to the Tianli Sect.

This is because Wu Qimai was seriously threatened by Xiao Seser. The latter had led his troops into Kedun City and received allegiance from the Mengwu tribes. He seemed to be the overlord of the grassland. It was not that Xiao Seser was so powerful, mainly because the camel cannon and 4 kilogram cavalry cannon were too powerful. Those grassland tribes that had not completed the reform of the ten thousand household system could not withstand such casualties.

The backyard caught fire, and the Great Jin Kingdom, which was captured by the Zhou army in Datong, Yingzhou, Shuozhou and other places, did not dare to fight another long-term war with Xiliang.

The system of this nation has developed to this point, and the leaders of the eastern Xia countries have become friends with each other, joining forces, fighting against each other, and holding together to make a group of warmth. Everyone is already very familiar with it.

"No," Gao Yaokang shook his head, "a large group of people retreated to Guanzhong, who had no food or drink, wanted to be retro, but had no money to gain land. A group of young men and women were impatient and aggressive, wanting to be tough."

"Are you strong?" Zhang Li paused and asked again, "How about you be better than the two of us?"

"It is said to be better than us!" Gao Yaokang nodded, "There are more than 2,000 martial arts departments who followed the official family to enter the pass. During this period, people have entered the pass and defected one after another. I'm afraid there are no less than 3,000... but they are all military officers who have been on the battlefield.

As for soldiers, there are more. The number of strong men brought from Guandong is no less than 200,000. In Shaanxi, Shuofang originally had domestic soldiers who were granted land, with about 100,000 households, and they all supported the official family and retro.

Moreover, there is no shortage of weapons, because in Shaanxi, Shuofang has always been a land of military farming. When Ji Yizhi was in power, he prepared local arsenals and added a large number of armored weapons and artillery to Shaanxi and Shuofang.

Now let’s look at the retro party members’ retro. Can it be successfully implemented in Guanlong! If there is any chaos, our opportunity will come!"
