I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 354 When conspiracy meets strength

The track is in his hands, and the carriages transporting rewards from the imperial court are also stranded in Qinzhou. Even if there are nearly [-] new troops, all of them will return to Bianliang, and the transport capacity is more than enough.

But Zhao Xi didn't take away all the new troops. There were [-] new troops, so they couldn't be said to be invincible. There was really no one in the world who could compete.

What's more, the new war with Xixia has just ended, and the frontier protection cannot be relaxed for a moment.

Although Di Qing originally belonged to the Western Army, he has been far away from the Western Army for many years, but it is uncertain how much of his reputation will last.It is also necessary to leave some available soldiers for him.

Zhao Xi only took away less than [-] new troops.

The ministers of the court chose to report the father's illness together with the court reward, which means that the news should not have been leaked at this time.

This journey of the new army did not hang the king's flag to show off its might, just like an ordinary rail transport trip.

The situation in Qinzhou went smoothly without any accidents.

At this time, Zhao Xi also put all his thoughts on the layout of the court hall, and tried his best to imagine possible situations.

He made many unexpected assumptions, but none of them worked.

In the face of strength, all conspiracies and tricks are in vain.This is not Zhao Xi's arrogance. After so many years, he is still confident. Even if he evaluates himself at a minimum, there will be no accident that the imperial power will be taken over.

Even if the old man can't get him back, there won't be any accidents in the succession of the Datong.

In front of them is the Jingzhao Mansion, that is to say, in two days, they can enter Bianliang.

Along the way, in order to hide their whereabouts, the entire convoy did not increase supplies at any station.

The laying of the track is mostly in parallel with the official road.Zhao Xi designed this way at the beginning to avoid duplication of construction, so that the official road and track can enjoy the same station supply, and no more court support will be added.

Maweipo is a big station, whether it is the official road or the track, Mawei station is the supply point for the west out of Jingzhao Mansion.

There are more than 5 new troops, and this journey consumes a lot of energy. There are at least two days away from Bianliang, so the entire convoy stopped at Mawei Post to prepare for some supplies.

"His Royal Highness was captured in Haoshuichuan, and now you have escaped by orbit, how can you still have the face to supply?"

"How dare you lie and kill [-] soldiers? Didn't the Xixia people stand still and let you kill them? The infantry killed [-] cavalrymen? Do you think the entire court is a fool?"

While talking, the soldiers at the station burst into laughter.

"Stop pretending! Xixia has already sent envoys to Bianliang! The bullshit new army, the salary is not low, they are all fed to the dogs!"

"This time, in exchange for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they have to exploit the military equipment again, so their new army should bear the burden!"

It was originally a matter of supplies, Zhao Xi didn't care about it, even the soldiers of the guard battalion didn't show up, and just let any leader of the new army ask for it.

But Zhao Xi could still hear the laughter at the post station and the sarcasm one after another.

"I was captured? Why didn't I even know about it? This matter..."

The more Zhao Xi thought about it, the less simple it became.I still overestimate the secrecy ability of the court, and I am still too confident in Neiyuan.

Obviously, such rumors will not come without wind and waves.

Now, Dad is seriously ill, if there are rumors that he was captured or died in battle...

How dare they!
"Cao Lin, control the station, destroy it if it needs to be destroyed, arrest it if it needs to be arrested, and find out the source of the rumor!"

"In addition, all the convoys will stop at all the post stations ahead, and control the post stations as soon as they stop. If there are conditions to screen, then screen the post station personnel. If there is no time or conditions, all of them will be arrested and even executed on the spot!"

A convoy that can transport [-] troops does not care about pulling more people.

As for the post station, Zhao Xi knew that he couldn't be merciful at this time.

The function of the post station is to welcome and send off. Similarly, it is also the transfer point of many news, and it is also the starting point of rumors.

No matter who it is, the purpose of spreading such news at this time is self-evident.

But is it useful?The mantis arm is just a cart, and in today's general situation, who can stop himself from inheriting the great rule?
is that useful?I was not really captured...

Zhao Xi suddenly became alert.

"Zirong, is there any sand table in Gyeonggi-do?"

"Your Highness, when the track was being laid in Gyeonggi-do, Ming Zhong did a survey of part of the terrain, and the sand table of Gyeonggi-do was not formed."

"Your Highness, what's wrong?"

Surprised by Zhao Xi, the instructors and commanders of the entire guard battalion were a little nervous.

Even Li Jie also ran to his resting place and began to writhe.

"This is the first post station after Qinzhou. It is close to the front line of Qinzhou. Even if some people believe that Hao Shuichuan was defeated, I was captured."

"Going forward, even the rumors of my death in battle are not surprising. The point is, if after such publicity, we make some articles on our return convoy, if it really caused the fact that I was killed..."

Zhao Xi admired this operation a little bit.

The first is to create public opinion, so that the soldiers and civilians, and even some officials who don't know the truth, are confused between the victory of Haoshuichuan... The country's victory over Xixia, based on previous examples, really does not have much credibility.

Then, on his way back to Bianliang, he played a big game...

Once he dies, everything can be said in different ways.

As for the court, the whole world belongs to the Zhao family. As long as the emperor is still from the Zhao family, the interests of the ministers and workers will not be harmed.

Have a great time!

The track is in my own hands, there is no doubt about it.Although the road guards on the entire track come from the miscellaneous soldiers of the imperial court, Zhao Xi believes that the combat power of the road guards is definitely not inferior to that of the Western Army.

In other words, it is impossible for the opponent to destroy the orbit to achieve the goal.

Besides, it would be impossible to determine his own life and death at all.

The only way left is to fight an ambush.

The battle on the western front had just ended, and no one would have thought that when they returned to Bianliang, they would bring back [-] to [-] new troops... Consolidating the border defense should be the top priority, even Qinzhou, it is impossible to let go of the new army like this.

It should be said that what the other party really did not expect was the strength of the new army... To consolidate the border defense, it is not necessary to keep all the new army in Qinzhou.

What was even more unpredictable was that in the battle against Xia this time, the ratio of their own losses was not high.Killing [-] Xixia cavalry, according to the previous practice, the loss of Guochao soldiers is at least twice.

That is to say, there will not be too many troops to escort him back to Bianliang in order to consolidate the border defense.

Looking back from all aspects, Zhao Xi can be sure that the ministers in the court have no dissent, and the detailed report of this great victory has not been leaked.

What is certain is that the news should still come from Neiyuan.Moreover, the opponent has a military general participating, and he is a general who has never been in contact with the new army.

These are not the most important things now, and now we need to deduce, where will the opponent ambush the convoy?

"Your Highness, the guard battalion will escort His Highness back to Bianliang from the national highway, and we will continue to follow the track!"

When Lu Gongzhu said this, Zhao Xi suddenly had a familiar feeling, as if it was similar to a certain event in later generations.

However, Zhao Xi was not prepared to avoid it.Again, in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies are in vain.
