Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1056 Xiangfu Kingdom's First Subject Country

"Legion Commander, the last general fulfilled his mission and successfully brought the envoys from Khotan Kingdom here."

"Foreign minister Li Chenghao pays his respects to General Huang." The visitor gave Huang Dongqiu a deep salute after carefully watching him.

Huang Dongqiu walked over and helped him up with his own hands. In addition to contacting the Lion King's younger brother Lie Kadongbu privately with the Ministry of Security, and setting up to provoke civil strife in Xizhou Uighurs, Huang Dongqiu, Duanmu Zhongren and others were instructed by Ye Chen. After the discussion, he also decided on a long-distance and short-term attack plan outside the battlefield, and concluded a military alliance with Yuhe State in the southwest of Xizhou Uyghur, forming a double-sided attack on Xizhou Uyghur State.

When the Kingdom of Khotan was first established, the royal family was the Yuchi family. During the Anshi Rebellion at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Lord Yuhe unexpectedly led an army of [-] troops to rescue the Tang Dynasty because of the marriage with the princess of the Tang Dynasty.Afterwards, in order to thank him for his kindness, the Tang royal family gave him the surname Li of the Tang emperor.

In fact, the life of Yuhe Kingdom these years has been very difficult. Every year, there are constant wars with neighboring countries for various reasons, especially because almost all the people of Yuhe Kingdom believe in Buddhism, while the Black Khanate is a big eclipse with a rather extreme belief. Sects and religious disputes are often very crazy and can easily breed hatred for exterminating the country. Therefore, the Black Khanate and the Xizhou Uighur State have continuously launched attacks on the He Kingdom over the years, and the Yu He Kingdom has not been able to hold on for long. According to the original history, after more than 20 years, the Yuhe Kingdom will be completely destroyed.

Guazhou and Yuhe State were originally separated by the territory of the Xizhou Uighur State, but after the people from the Ministry of Security contacted first, and then Huang Dongqiu sent a fierce general named Stone Wolf to meet him, he finally got in touch with Yuhe State and reached a verbal agreement , and now Yuhe Kingdom has directly sent an envoy, which can be regarded as a formal military alliance with Xiangfu Kingdom.

Contrary to Huang Dongqiu's expectations, the envoy of Yuhe Kingdom named Li Chenghao turned out to be a prince of Yuhe Kingdom, which shows that he attaches great importance to the alliance with Xiangfu Kingdom.In fact, as early as the beginning of last year, when Xiangfu Kingdom was first becoming stronger, Yuhe Kingdom sent envoys to Xiajing. At that time, they met Ye Chen and asked Ye Chen to send troops to support Yuhe Kingdom. Xiangfu Kingdom was staring at it, and Ye Chen's troops were insufficient, so he naturally refused Yuhe Kingdom's request.However, Ye Chen did not do everything completely, but arranged for a caravan to secretly send a lot of high-quality armor and weapons to Yu Heguo.While the two countries forged a fraternal bond, the situation in the war between the Yuhe Kingdom and the Xizhou Uighurs and the Black Khanate was somewhat better.

"General Huang, I am willing to bow down to your majesty in the He country, and I only hope that your country can protect me in the small country of He." Li Chenghao said straight to the point after saluting.

Huang Dongqiu's eyes couldn't help but brighten up. This is the first other country that Xiangfu Kingdom bowed down to as a vassal after it established itself, and he played a major role in this matter. Afterwards, the credit is no less than a victory in a war.However, whether it is him, Duanmu Zhongren, or any of the officials, they absolutely cannot accept Li Chenghao's surrender on behalf of Xiangfu Kingdom's court.Only His Majesty the Emperor has this qualification.

Thoughts turned in his mind, Huang Dongqiu said: "For your country to be a minister to His Majesty the Emperor, His Royal Highness needs to go to Xiajing City to meet His Majesty in person. He will send someone to escort His Highness to Xiajing. At present, Your Highness may as well talk about how to communicate with him." Our army is planning to deal with the Uighurs in Xizhou."

When Li Chenghao heard this, his face showed embarrassment, and he said: "To tell you the truth, General Huang, I have a total of [-] troops in the whole country, of which [-] troops Chen Bing are on the front line with the Black Khanate to prevent the Black Khanate from invading. The Black Khanate had just sent [-] troops to attack our border guards, and it took several bloody battles to repel the Black Khanate. Another [-] troops, [-] of which were to guard me in Kyoto and other important cities in Heguo. Therefore, I have only had [-] troops in the He Kingdom to rely on natural dangers to defend against the Uighurs in Xizhou, if I send troops to support General Huang, I am afraid that I will not be able to cope with the strength of the He Kingdom."

Huang Dongqiu frowned slightly, knowing that before the Xizhou Uyghur Kingdom was on the verge of being destroyed, it was impossible for the Yuhe Kingdom to send troops to provoke the Xizhou Uighur Kingdom. The courage of the monarch and his ministers.This point is understandable from the perspective of Yu He, whose national strength and military strength are much weaker than that of the Western Uyghur. Huang Dongqiu and the previous staff's analysis and speculation had already expected it, and prepared a plan for this situation.

"In this case, your country doesn't need to send troops, but you need to help our army with one thing." Huang Dongqiu stared into Li Chenghao's eyes and said solemnly.

Li Chenghao said quickly: "General Huang, please tell me that as long as our country can do it, we will not be stingy."

Huang Dongqiu said: "I have [-] cavalrymen who will disguise themselves as businessmen and sneak into your Yuhe country in batches. After our army starts a war with the Xizhou Uighur country on the front line of Shazhou, these [-] cavalry soldiers will enter Xizhou from your Yuhe country. Uighur country, it’s just that this process requires your country to cooperate with you and provide some food and grass.”

Li Chenghao's body shook, and after a little hesitation, he said, "Yes."

Hearing this, Huang Dongqiu smiled slightly, glanced at Shi Lang with bright eyes beside him, and said, "In that case, Shi Lang, you should prepare now. I don't care if you dress up as a horse thief or a businessman. In short, you will travel with 5000 people." Within a month, we will suddenly enter the south of Xizhou Uighur Kingdom from Yuhe Kingdom, and turn the rear area upside down."

The stone wolf seemed to have seen countless military achievements roll in, and at the end of the Zhengdan Grand Court, he turned himself a brave viscount into a brave uncle.He was originally the leader of the top horse thieves. Back then, he dealt with the four major powers of Liao, Song, Northern Han, and Dangxiang. He was not defeated by nearly a dozen of them. Lightning raids, robberies, and disrupting the enemy's rear were exactly what he was best at.What's more, having the most advanced and excellent weapons and equipment in the world allotted by Xiangfu Kingdom is even more powerful. It is just in response to the saying "the sky is high and the birds are flying, and the sea is wide and the fish are leaping". He is excited and agitated.

.........

.........

Half a month later, under the joint efforts of businessmen controlled by the Heguo and the Ministry of Security mobilized by Li Chenghao, Shi Lang and his cavalry brigade were broken into pieces and left Guazhou without a trace. .And Huang Dongqiu drew a company from the Guazhou City Guards to escort Li Chenghao to Xiajing.

According to the plan, the rebellion of the younger brother of the Lion King of the Xizhou Uighur Kingdom was a matter of secretly provoking dissension from the Xiangfu Kingdom. Under the arrangement of the Ministry of Security, the Lion King learned of it skillfully. In the two big defeats after going up Mount Heifeng last year, the Xizhou Uyghurs lost more than 15 people. He raised an army of 1, regardless of the cold weather, prepared to reinforce Shazhou, and after a slight modification in the plan, he took the initiative to rush directly to the headquarters of the Heifeng Mountain Volunteer Army.

Everything was proceeding according to the plan made before. From Huang Dongqiu down, the soldiers of the Volunteer Army were all excited, and they were about to fight again.Ye Chen gave Huang Dongqiu an order at the end of last year to take back Mount Heifeng and Shazhou before the spring of this year.But Huang Dongqiu's eyeliner in Xia Jing had already sent him information about the court and some Song Dynasty situations, especially His Majesty's desire to conquer the world.

He was originally a commander of the Northwest Frontier Army of the Song Dynasty. Due to some inexplicable reasons in the hearts of human beings, the greatest wish of a general of the Xiangfu Kingdom like him who surrendered from the Song Dynasty is to be able to follow His Majesty to kill Entering the Song State, turning the territory of the Song State into a part of the Xiangfu State.So, right now, how can Huang Dongqiu be satisfied with taking the credit for winning Shazhou? He wants to defeat the Xizhou Uighurs and even destroy the country before Ye Chen goes to war with the Song State, so as not to let the Xizhou Uighurs pin him down. Western Regions, so that he can participate in the historical trend of conquering the Central Plains, Jiangnan, and even the Liao Kingdom.

The middle reaches of the Yangtze River, Huangzhou.

Lou Yanming looked at the sword-like young man in front of him, his heart was filled with anger, but he was helpless.

Half a month ago, at the price of sacrificing Duan Siyue and being severely injured by the owner of Iron Sword Villa, he escaped from Iron Sword Villa with Shangguan Bingyun.He has been worried that the Lord of Iron Sword Villa will chase him all the way, and the possibility of him escaping is too small.Unexpectedly, the owner of Iron Sword Villa never caught up, but Bai Canghai's ghost persisted, chasing him relentlessly.If he had not been seriously injured, with his body skills, Bai Canghai would not be able to catch up at all, even if he did catch up, Bai Canghai would not be his opponent.But now facing this young swordsman whose strength has improved rapidly, he can barely protect himself, but it is difficult for him to get rid of him.

The two have fought more than a dozen times in the past half month, at least once a day, so that every time his injury recovered slightly, he relapsed. After half a month, not only has there been no progress, he even has worsening trend.According to this situation, his injuries are likely to become more and more serious. On the contrary, in the process of fighting with him again and again, Bai Canghai's swordsmanship strength has been slowly increasing. In half a month, if his injury doesn't improve, he probably won't be Bai Canghai's opponent.

"Bai Canghai, don't bully others too much. If I'm not injured, you dare to behave like this in front of me." Lou Yanming shouted with a gloomy expression as he looked at Bai Canghai who was slowly walking out from behind a low mountain.

Bai Canghai looked at Lou Yanming, his eyes were frighteningly bright, but the expression on his face was as calm and cold as his sword, without any change: "Hand over Shangguan Bingyun and Shui'er, and I will stop pestering you .”

As soon as the words finished, Lou Yanming let out a cold snort, and before Bai Canghai's sword could strike, his figure had already turned into a puff of smoke.

But almost at the same time, Bai Canghai's sword light lit up like lightning, and in an instant, he stabbed six times at Lou Yanming's throat, heart, chest, waist, and legs.
