"The minister, the military supervisor, and the subordinates are here to repay the merits!"

Wu Haogu walked into the Fusi Festival Hall and saw Tao Jiefu and Tong Guan who were looking at the map. He smiled and bowed, saying that he would repay his merits.

"The heads of the Western Pirates, more than 700 alive prisoners, and several villages were burned to find out the truth of the Western Pirates in Yinzhou... Is this a great contribution?"

Listening to Wu Haogu's words, Tao Jiefu and Tong Guan both looked at each other. Tong Guan said, "Dalang, this time your troops are not attacking without orders. It would be good if you don't ask for any crime. Do you want credit?"

Wu Haogu said with a smile: "It can't be considered Wu Ling's attack, right? They just got lost and entered the territory of the Western thieves."

Lost? Tong Guanxin said that this lost is more than a hundred miles, but they are carrying guides!

Tao Jiefu shook his head and did not argue with Wu Haogu. Now Wu Haogu's Sanzhi Imperial Guard is the main force of Fuyan Road. If you offend him, you will be the one who does not work hard. The one who suffers will suffer will be his strategic appeasement envoy.

"Xuanzan," said Tao Jiefu, "Your people have also plundered hundreds of foreigners, right?"

"Yes," Wu Haogu said with a smile, "Everyone is strong, one man can count as twenty pieces."

Tao Jiefu was stunned for a moment, how about twenty pieces? What does it mean?

Tong Guan already understood and frowned: "Dalang, are you going to sell those foreigners to Fushi?"

Wu Haogu nodded, "I have caught more than 700 pieces in total. I have wiped you with a fraction of them. I have counted seven hundred pieces, and one twenty pieces. You can give 14,000 pieces... If cash is inconvenient, it is okay to give salt intake, but you have to give 20,000 pieces of salt intake."

And wiped the fraction...

Tao Jiefu was so happy that Wu Haogu was so angry that Wu Haogu was indeed a profiteer! His business was in front of the Northwest Army.

"Da Lang!" Tong Guan looked at Wu Haogu, "It can't be like this!"

Wu Haogu also smiled bitterly: "If this is the case, I have to post 14,000 yuan in it! High-ranking official, do you think those soldiers who have given birth to a young master will not have money? Moreover, they are guests of the official family... The court has always treated people from distant places, so it cannot be a loss to others."

In fact, Wu Haogu wanted to leave Wanyan Xie as a general in the Song Dynasty, so he wanted to give them some sweetness.

After hearing this, Tong Guan felt something was right. He said to Tao Jiefu again: "If you use the prime minister, why don't you... just ignore these live captives."

Stop it? That's OK?

Wu Haogu nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, it's no good for Fushi to redeem them. These people are all the foreign people who moved from Hengshan. They are enemies of us. You have to be careful when keeping them. Why not sell them to Jiehe Market?"

The work of ethnic unity in the Hengshan area has always been bad, and the conflicts between the Fan and Han Dynasty are very sharp! Because the Hengshan Fan tribe was the source of the elite Western thief Bubazi, in the past 100 years (starting from the Li Jiqian era), they were all vanguards of the Xia army invading the border prefectures and counties of the Song Dynasty, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil.

After the rise of the Western Army, the Song army that invaded Hengshan also went with the intention of revenge and burning, killing, looting and other things. As a result, the hatred between the two sides became deeper and deeper. Many of the Hengshan Fan tribes fled north to the Wuding River Basin controlled by the Western thieves because they did not want to be ruled by their enemies. Among them, Ding Zhuang became the source of troops of the Western thieves' Left-Changed Divine Army and the Jiading Army. These plundered Fan people were the Fan people living near Amitabha Cave. Chage had planned to move them to the vicinity of Xiazhou City, but before they could make a trip, they met the evil Jurchens and the Bu robbers!

Tao Jiefu shook his head: "Xuanzan, there are many people in the court staring at us!"

"Don't be afraid," said Wu Haogu, "It's also a barbarian who gave birth to a Jurchen! Should the court offend the barbarians who helped us fight for a hundred years in order to fight with us?"

Tao Jiefu asked: "Those people are really good at fighting?"

Wu Haogu nodded: "You can fight! You can fight very well!"

Tong Guan shook his head, "But the birth Jurchen we saw in Helandian is not very good at fighting."

"Those are Jurchens who farm and do business," said Wu Haogu, "Brother Zhao Zhong brought back the Jurchens who killed and set fire!"

Is there such a difference? Tong Guan is a little skeptical.

Tao Jiefu didn't have the heart to think about the Lazy Jurchen, and no longer considered the captured foreign prisoners. The most important thing at the moment is whether he could fight a battle when the cold weather was cold and take down several key strongholds and fight all kinds of disputes. He could wait until he made a contribution.

"Wu Xuanzan," Tao Jiefu frowned, "Can your Sanzhi Imperial Guard still fight now?"

Wu Hao Gu Dao: "It depends on whether you have money? The Dragon Martyr and the Knight in front of the Palace fought for the house when they were in Huangzhou. Now the rewards for the house are almost gone, so the energy of the big guys is naturally not as good as before."

In fact, the reason why the Sanzhi Imperial Army first asked for money was not the problem of houses, but now there are ten thousand spear soldiers. These people do not pay any salary, and the Song Dynasty did not have military merits. If they do not give rewards, what motivation does they have to fight?

“How much do you want?”

Wu Haogu asked: "It depends on where the emperor wants to hit?"

This sounds a bit like doing business, but it is true that the Song Dynasty army operates like this! If you don’t tell the price well, no general dares to take the troops to the front line. The reason why Gao Qiu didn’t talk about money before was because Zhao Ji gave the house deed...

Tao Jiefu said: "Shibaozhai and Yinzhou City!"

"Shibao Village?" Wu Haogu turned his gaze to the map.

Tong Guan stretched out his finger and clicked on a mountain village on the northern foot of Hengshan on the map, more than 30 miles away from Yinzhou.

"The terrain of this village is dangerous, with cliffs on three sides, and only one side can enter and exit." Tao Jiefu said, "There are about tens of thousands of stones in the millet in the Western thief's cellar!"

"How can I capture it so dangerous?" Wu Haogu immediately felt tricky when he heard Tao Jiefu say it.

If Shibao Village is a flat city, it can also be used for tunnel blasting. But this one is a mountain city, and Huang Silang's engineers may not be able to rely on it.

"The three imperial guards do not need to send troops to attack the stone fortress," said Tao Jiefu. "I have their own way to seize it. However, your cavalry needs to clear and block the surroundings of the stone fortress, so that the Western thieves cannot find out the truth."

"Then you have to settle the accounts of the hundreds or dozens of Western thieves who have been cut first."

"Okay!" Tao Jiefu said, "Just follow the Western Army's market."

"Then the officials allocated the best Jurchen cavalry to the Prime Minister, and the general soldiers and auxiliary soldiers had a total of more than 750 people. You have to give 8,000 yuan of excise fees."

"Give it to you!" Tao Jiefu said, "In addition, Yinzhou City needs your people to attack, and after the battle, it is necessary to build a city."

Wu Haogu thought for a while, "Travel 30,000 troops to fight Yinzhou, and give three corrupt officials to 90,000. This requires beheading first, and the captives will be calculated after the war."

"Okay!" Tao Jiefu nodded, "How many people do you need to build a city? How much food and grass do you need?"

Wu Haogu shook his head and smiled, "It's hard to say about the minister. We have to let the military commander calculate it. What's the answer to you in a few days?"

"Military command?"

"The subordinates' aide." Wu Haogu explained, "The subordinates can't fight and have to rely on the assistants to assist him, so he asked the officials to set up this command. Most of the officials and assistants were selected from the knights in front of the palace."

"So that's it." Tao Jiefu nodded and did not ask any more questions.

The Song Dynasty was suspicious of military generals, and the generals who led the troops set up their own shogunate was a taboo, but if the officials allowed it, the staff were all from the front knights, that's another matter.

...

"We were robbed?"

In just four days, the news that the Yinzhou foreign tribe was looted by Song Dynasty robbers spread to Xingqing Mansion.

But no matter whether it is the main trunk of the country, Xiao Heda, Wei Ming Jingsi, Wei Ming Anhui, Wu Yi Boma and other ministers, they cannot believe that such a thing is happening.

It's a bit like a gang of robbers that have been established for more than a hundred years suddenly discovering that they have become the target of robbery!

"I can't be wrong!" The chief military officer of the Dutong Army was very sure. "The emergency document from Amitabha Cave was sent by six good horses after they ran to death on the road. There would be no mistake."

After confirming the news, the question was not eliminated. The old minister Wei Ming Jingsi said in confusion: "The Amitabha Cave is almost here, why did you retreat in a hurry? Why didn't you rob Yinzhou City? We are very empty around Yinzhou City!"

Now Xixia has begun to clear the fields on both sides of the Wuding River, but there is also a process of clearing the fields. The first thing to retreat was the village tribes near the border of Song State. Among them, Yinzhou City was almost empty, and while the people around Yinzhou were retreating, there were only a few defenders left in Yinzhou City.

In Wei Ming Jingsi's view, since the Song army could enter more than 100 miles, it also easily defeated the cavalry commander of the left-wing Divine Army, and there should be thousands or even tens of thousands of troops.

So many people mobilized to kill each other, and then left after robbing them? And they didn't get anything.

"Do you want to speed up the retreat?" Wei Ming Anhui, who is also older, said, "The current situation looks a bit like the seventh year of Da'an."

The seventh year of Da'an was the fourth year of Yuanfeng in the Song Dynasty, and the fifth route of the Song Dynasty attacked Xia in this year!

Gan Shun looked at his younger brother, Brother Cha, and said, "It's not slow to retreat...but this Song army is coming too fast!"

"What should I do?"

"Let's wait and see." Brother Cha had no idea. After all, he hadn't figured out the situation on the front line yet, so he naturally didn't know how to deal with it.

But when he waited, he waited for new bad news a few days later.

This time, the "group of cavalry" of the Song army attacked from the security army, crossed the Great Wall Ridge on a snowy night and then directly crossed the empty defense Hongzhou, and went deep into Youzhou. It also burned, killed and looted again. It also encountered the cavalry sent by the Jianing Army Office near Wuguyan City, and once again showed terrible combat effectiveness. They used a tactic of small groups of cavalry attacking in turn, and effortlessly defeated the two thousand cavalry of the Jianing Army Office, killing at least two hundred people and capturing more than two hundred. Then the vicious Song army drove the captured Xixia cavalry and the looted people to attack Wuguyan City.
