Chapter 285: Change of Master to Xixia 2

"Look at it, this is the news from Zhongxing Prefecture." Han Zhongwei summoned everyone to a meeting again. After everyone was together, he took out a note of two fingers wide and handed it to Zhang Zhongtong next to him.

There are not many words on the note, but the meaning is amazing: Wanyan Xun conspires with Li An to send troops to deal with King Xia

"Li An is going to do something, okay, I'm itchy forehand." Soon, everyone finished reading it, and Du Gao said angrily.

"Everyone talks about how to deal with the current situation." Han Zhongwei said.

"Unify the Western Xia, the prince will be the emperor." Li Tian suddenly said, "When he was in Heifeng Village, he was always talking about the words "Unified the martial arts world and dominate the martial arts world." Now, after a little change, he still feels so catchy."

"Unifying Xixia? Xixia is dominated by Dangxiang people, and there are not many Han people. It is not difficult to oust Li An, but it is probably not easy to take down his country." Han Zhongwei's heart was thumping. He really didn't expect Li Tian to say such ruthless words. His original plan was to stimulate Li An, consume his strength, and erode his territory step by step. As for the Emperor of Xixia, Li An would still sit on it.

"Yes, unify the Western Xia and proclaim the emperor," Du Gao also said loudly.

"Unify the Xixia, the prince will be the emperor." The rest of the people also shouted in unison. With Han Zhongwei's current strength, unifying the Xixia is not difficult. Even if they really want to be the emperor, the Dangxiang people dare not say anything. After all, in front of powerful firearms, their so-called iron riding is not worth mentioning.

"Stop, stop, stop. There is no problem with unifying Xixia, but I am really not interested in this emperor. I started out as a business and like to make calculations in everything I do. If Xixia is the emperor, there will be more disadvantages and fewer benefits. I will not do such a loss-making business." Han Zhongwei pressed his hands and said slowly.

Zhang Zhongtong, Du Gao, Li Tian and others were very enthusiastic. They looked at each other and understood the meaning from each other's eyes. Didn't the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty be forced to become emperor just by his subordinates' yellow robe? We can also follow suit, and then Han Zhongwei would not agree.

"Actually, Li An has no available soldiers in his hands now. In addition to the 100,000 troops of the Captured Life Army, he can also be said to be powerful in one battle. As for the 350,000 troops of the Zuoxiang Army, it is simply vulnerable." Du Gao, as the current highest military commander, is quite familiar with the military strength of Xixia. He knows how many available soldiers there are in Xixia and what important generals there are in the army.

The Emperor Guard of Zhongxing Prefecture and the Capital Garrison Du Gao were not included. These two armies are the most elite troops in Xixia and are also the basis for Li An’s daring to take action. In particular, the Emperor Guard, all the heavily armored cavalry, would not have been able to conquer if they fought with him on the plain without paying more than twenty times the loss. But Li An would never have dreamed that his Emperor Guard was actually under the control of Han Zhongwei. Even if it was the Capital Garrison, now as long as Han Zhongwei had an order, at least half of the people would leave the barracks and fall under his command.

"You can't just stare at Li An. Since the Jin Kingdom sent Wanyan Xunxun to conspire with him, it would definitely be beneficial for him. The detailed information is still on the way, but I believe that even if the Jin Kingdom does not send troops, it will give Li An the greatest convenience and give him the opportunity to take advantage of it." Han Zhongwei said that Ding Chuan has gone to Fengxiang Road, which will be another important base for Han Zhongwei in the future. Intelligence personnel will enter first, which is necessary.

"If Li Jian alone is just a little bit easier to deal with, but if you add the Jin Kingdom, it will be a little troublesome." Zhang Zhongtong said slowly. Although the Jin Kingdom is weak now, the lean camel is bigger than a horse. What is particularly important is that the Jin Kingdom also has firearms, although not many, if the guards encounter the firearms they produce, they will suffer great losses.

"The Jin Kingdom was absolutely afraid to support Li An openly. It can be seen from the fact that Wanyan Xun only dared to conspire with Li An. Therefore, the Jin Kingdom was at most supporting a batch of firearms we produced, and in addition, it was to cause some trouble in the reception of those seven prefectures." Han Zhongwei said with a smile.

"But if the Xixia army has firearms, it will be a bad thing for us." Du Gao said with some concern.

"It's okay, I can know that Li An overturns a few times at night. Once he has firearms, I will give them some use. As for the Jin Kingdom, this time we must obtain evidence of the collusion between Jin Kingdom and Li An, and we will settle the score with him. This time, not only will Li An lose his troops, but also let the Jin Kingdom shoot himself in the foot." Han Zhongwei said firmly that Li An had a Dai Licheng around him. Although it was not as terrifying as Han Zhongwei said, at least Han Zhongwei could control the big and small affairs that happened around Li An at any time. Therefore, if the Jin Kingdom didn't send them, it would be fine if the Jin Kingdom didn't send them. Once transported into the Western Xia territory, it would be equivalent to sending them to Han Zhongwei again. Even if it could not be received, just a little move could destroy the firearms.

Han Zhongwei discussed how to deal with Li An in the royal palace of Heicheng, and Li An, who was far away in Zhongxing Prefecture, also summoned important officials in the court to discuss how to deal with Han Zhongwei. Now Han Zhongwei not only holds heavy troops, but also occupies seven prefectures in Daxia. If Li An was the great emperor, Han Zhongwei could be said to be a little emperor. His Black City Royal Palace was even more luxurious than the emperor in the capital. The orders he issued in Heicheng were like the imperial edict issued by Li An in Zhongxing Prefecture.

The most exciting person in the palace is Li Zhiguo, the Privy Councilor of the Great Xia. He heard that the emperor finally wanted to fight Han Zhongwei for troops, so he was happier than eating the Immortal Fruit. When he spoke, his fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly, which shows how excited he was in his heart.

"Emperor, if you want to use troops against Han Zhongwei, the little thief, I am willing to be the vanguard." Li Zhiguo shouted excitedly.

"Mr. Li, as a Privy Councilor, don't worry, how to be a pioneer, Han Zhongwei is not weak. This battle cannot be finished in a short time and three moments. You have a chance." Li An was in a very relaxed mood. Since his close conversation with Wanyan Xun, his mood began to improve.

Wanyan Xun told him that in fact, the Jin Dynasty had no choice but to temporarily hand over the seven prefectures to Han Zhongwei. Each of them had difficult scriptures to recite. Now that Han Zhongwei and Mongolian Jamukha joined forces, if he could not have enough benefits, Han Zhongwei would not let go from Mongolia. Fortunately, Han Zhongwei was so fond of his righteousness when he saw profits, he turned around and sold Jamukha. This gave Jin and Li An opportunity. Jin Kingdom could take this opportunity to re-control the Mongolian Khanate, and Li An could also completely solve Han Zhongwei in one fell swoop.

Li An was deeply afraid of Han Zhongwei. He was very good at this person. As long as he was given a chance, he could make an amazing move immediately. At the beginning, he just wanted him to set up a cement factory near Heicheng to provide cement for Heicheng. Who would have thought that when he came to the capital, he would solve a huge problem for Li Chunyou. His father's original arrangement was also disrupted by him, so Han Zhongwei became Kehou. Heicheng was also awarded him.

After Black City got it, he immediately set up a guard team. Although the number of people was not large, he had firearms that even the Jin Kingdom was jealous of. In order to obtain the firearms, the Jin Kingdom paid hundreds of dollars. Just by this, it was not an exaggeration to say that Han Zhongwei had become the richest man in the world.

Later, he pretended to support himself ascend to the throne. He was blind at that time, so why did he collude with Han Zhongwei? Although he has become this emperor now, he has never had a safe sleep any day. He has paid a heavy price for this throne. Although the seven northern states are not considered wealthy, after falling into Han Zhongwei, half of his territory can be regarded as giving him.

With a larger territory, Han Zhongwei became even more out of control and went north to Mongolia. Originally, the army of Daxia was afraid of being beaten by the Mongols, but in front of Han Zhongwei, he just supported a small Jamukha. Not only did he defeat the most powerful Qiyan tribe on the Mongolian grassland and fled in panic, but later he unified the Mongolian grassland and established the Mongolian Khanate. Even now, even the most powerful Jin Kingdom in the world, is worried that Han Zhongwei and Mongolia will join forces with each other and will not be beneficial to them.

With the Jin Dynasty so strong, he could only give land from seven prefectures to Han Zhongwei to appease him, not to mention that the strength of Daxia is not comparable to that of the Jin Dynasty. Fortunately, Jin Dynasty and now began to be afraid of Han Zhongwei and wanted to join forces with him to deal with Han Zhongwei. This may be the last opportunity to solve Han Zhongwei. If he was asked to rectify the seven prefectures of the Jin Dynasty, he would probably beg him to survive the most, and in the end he could only beg him to have a way out.

"Your Majesty, I just don't like Han Zhongwei. He is a Han man. Now he not only owns the seven northern states, but is also named King of Xia. Such people must be eradicated as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a major disaster for my Daxia in the future." Li Zhiguo had long disliked Han Zhongwei. He, the highest military commander of Daxia, should be under his jurisdiction, but it is not possible in the north. Han Zhongwei was like establishing a kingdom. Not to mention the orders to him, I am afraid that even the emperor's orders would not be taken seriously.

"The sheep need to be fattened, and it will be delicious if they kill them. The same is true for people. Only when they do too many bad things can they raise troops to fight against them and step on him in one fell swoop." Li An said with a smile.

"Now, Han Zhongwei, this little fat sheep is almost raised, right?" Li Zhiguo asked.

"Killing sheep requires not only skills, but also a sharp knife. Now we have the skills. As long as the sharp knife is received, you can send troops immediately. Lord Li, you can prepare as soon as possible. Before the army and horses move, food and grass will go first." Li An said with a smile.

"Sharp knife? Please let the emperor make it clear." Li Zhiguo did not understand Li An's meaning for the moment. Besides, a minister who is too smart may not be a happy thing for the emperor. The emperor's thoughts were all guessed by the ministers, so he, as a subordinate, is necessary to pretend to be stupid occasionally.

"Everyone should know that the most important reason why Han Zhongwei has become popular in recent years is that he has some extremely powerful firearms. We also have some of these firearms, but not many. Everyone knows about the Mongolian Khanate. It was precisely because of the firearms provided by Han Zhongwei that Jamuha swept across Mongolian tribes in just a few months, and even killed Temujin, the great hero on the Mongolian grassland, to escape. Therefore, he fought with Han Zhongwei.

, It's not possible without a firearm." Li An had seen the power of a grenade, but after Wanyan Xun said that the power of a landmine was at least ten times the power of a grenade. He was shocked and could not believe it. But Wanyan Xun was confident and couldn't help but disbelieve it. After hearing the news, Li An even had the intention to live in peace with Han Zhongwei, but later Wanyan Xun suggested that the Jin Kingdom could support him enough to defeat Han Zhongwei's army, and he was once again moved.

Wanyan Xun also suggested that they had found the weakness of Han Zhongwei's firearms, and Han Zhongwei himself might not have noticed it. As long as they were surprised, they could even take down Han Zhongwei's firearm workshop in one fell swoop. At that time, with the craftsmen and raw materials, they could produce a large number of firearms to deal with Han Zhongwei. Although Han Zhongwei had the secret of gunpowder formula, there would always be tens of thousands of firearms in the workshop? With those firearms, it is just around the corner to completely eliminate Han Zhongwei.

"The sharp knife the emperor mentioned is those firearms?" Li Zhiguo also knew a little about Han Zhongwei's firearms. He even ordered the Qinsheng Army to send a few grenades to the Privy Council. He had seen it with his own eyes. He never thought that Han Zhongwei, a young man in the crown, would have made such powerful firearms? Unfortunately, for some reason, the Daxia army did not have many firearms equipped, and only the Qinsheng Army had tens of thousands.

"Yes, there is a way to deal with firearms." Li An smiled confidently.

"Now everything is ready. I wonder when that batch of firearms will arrive?" Li Zhiguo asked again.

"One month, one month later, it was the time when the Jin Dynasty and Han Zhongwei agreed to meet Fengxiang Road. We were surprised and divided our troops into two groups, attacking Han Zhongwei's nest one by one, and attacking Fengxiang Road the other. At that time, the Jin Dynasty actively cooperated with us and took a two-pronged approach. Han Zhongwei's death was not far away." Li An laughed.

According to Li An's plan, Li Zhiguo quickly formulated a combat plan. This time, he defeated Han Zhongwei in one fell swoop. All the Emperor's Guards of Zhongxing Prefecture went out, which was a terrifying force. Even if they encountered a guard with firearms, three thousand iron armored heavy cavalry could cause heavy losses to the guards. The 25,000 people of the garrison troops in the capital were left with only 5,000 people, and the remaining 20,000 and 75,000 sergeants of the army were all in charge. In addition, the 100,000 capturing army, now Li Shizhen is the governor and will also serve as the main force.

The remaining one is the Left Fang Army, which is of the nature of a local army. Compared with the Capture Army, the combat effectiveness is two levels different. As for the garrison troops in the capital and the Emperor Guard, there is no comparison at all.

Li An can be said to be the national army. He believes that with the nearly 300,000 troops, he can definitely defeat Han Zhongwei in one fell swoop, and may even capture Han Zhongwei. It may not be impossible to let him go to Capture the Shengjun as a soldier. Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Li An's face. It was really time to come that day, he must come to Capture the Shengjun and take a good look at Han Zhongwei's miserable appearance.

"Your Majesty, the garrison troops in the capital can set off at any time, but the commander has not been designated yet, and there is no general in the army, so it may be unfavorable to fight." Li Zhiguo was surprised when he heard that Li An wanted to use the garrison troops in the capital, but he did not dissuade him. The strength of the garrison troops was extraordinary. Not to mention that there were still five thousand people left, Li Zhiguo would not have any objection. He had to show the momentum of a lion fighting against a rabbit, and a battle would determine the world.

"I have just appointed Dai Licheng, the commander of the sixth squad in the Imperial Siege, also serves as the commander of the garrison troops of the capital." Li An said. This was a decision that he regretted for life, but now, he was deeply proud. Dai Licheng was right. The commander of the Emperor's Guard and the garrison troops of the capital was not the first priority, and loyalty was the first choice. Dai Licheng was the best choice in terms of talent and loyalty. Although he had never brought troops, he had a deputy commander under his command. As long as he grasped the general direction, there would be no problem.

"But this time the capital garrison troops were fighting. Commander Dai had never led troops in the past, but now he suddenly asked him to lead an army of 100,000, which is a big deal..."

"What's the matter? Isn't it too much? Humph" Li An couldn't help but become angry. When Dai Licheng learned that he was going to serve as the garrison in the capital, he was determined not to accept it. He said that he had never led the army and fought a war, and he might have lost the emperor's trust. However, the more Dai Licheng resigned, the more Li An valued him. There were not many such loyal ministers, who could share the worries of the master and were extremely loyal. Even if he gave him great power, he would not want it. Therefore, Li Ankun made arbitrary decision and personally issued an edict to force the garrison in the capital to Dai Licheng. Dai Licheng couldn't help but want it, otherwise it would be disrespectful.

"I dare not do it." Li Zhiguo was so scared that he knelt down and scolded himself for being extremely stupid. The emperor had already issued an order, so why are he still yelling here? Even if Dai Licheng would not be able to fight again, he was the emperor's confidant. He was the most popular person today, and he was uncomfortable in talking bad things about him.

"Even if Dai Licheng does not have the experience of leading troops to fight, are those deputy commanders a waste? We are planning for this battle first. As long as we act according to the plan, we can win a complete victory. No matter how stupid Dai Licheng is, we will always do things according to the rules?" Li An sneered repeatedly.

"Commander Dai is indeed the best candidate for the commander of the garrison troops in the capital." Li Zhiguo broke out in a cold sweat and quickly said loudly. He was afraid that he would be too late. It was unknown whether he, the Privy Councilor, could finish his mission today.

"Hmph" Li An relaxed his face a little.

Li Zhiguo did not dare to say much. He quickly implemented the combat plan. The mobilization of troops cannot be completed overnight. This is a systematic and complex job. Although there is still one month left, Han Zhongwei has to be wary of being known to Han Zhongwei. Therefore, even though one month is too long, it is actually enough.
