Chapter 481 The Seed of Li Bingchang
These words often appear on the border defense of the Song Dynasty, fort, village, village, and shop.
In a broad sense, it is placed in the border areas of the Song Dynasty. These words have similar meanings, and they are all small cities with defensive nature. If distinguished by literal meaning, the fort is a small city made of bricks and stones, and the village is a village with fences for defense. However, the nature of the village in the border areas of the Song Dynasty is different. It is also a city, and bricks and stones are used to build the city walls with rammed earth. Moreover, compared with the fort, the village is larger than the fort. Therefore, the village is a village, but to distinguish it from the village, the word "zhai" is used.
But in Hebei, it is not called a fort, but a shop.
In ancient times, the meaning of a post station was to be a post station. Therefore, the first thing in Hebei was to be a post station, and the second thing was a defensive nature, which was actually a smaller fort than a village.
There are also garrisons and outposts below the fortress, which are scattered around the periphery of each fortress, playing the role of keeping watch and alarm, with a smaller scale, and generally only a few dozen people are stationed.
However, there is another word in Qingzhou, namely town, Huai'an Town, Yele Town, Pingrong Town, Fengchuan Town, Chicheng Town, Jingui Town, and Wujiao Town. However, some people randomly call it Huai'an Fort and Huai'an Village.
In fact, they are still fortresses, but in addition to their military role, the commercial atmosphere is also very strong, so they are called towns.
Huaian Town, Town! means that there will be a lot of wealth and countless materials and supplies.
But Renduolingding lay on the map, looking at the terrain of Huai'an Town, frowned.
The Liang family insisted on taking Dashuncheng Road, but it did not mean that the Song Dynasty did not pay attention to Huai'an Town. Huai'an and Huai'an were established here in ancient times. The directly controlled Chexiangxia Avenue was the road wide and flat. The most important place.
Therefore, in Xianyang, the Song Dynasty built a city here and established Huai'an Town, which was only 80 miles away from Mubo Town, Huanzhou, so that the forces of the two states could help each other. As the situation in the northwest was tense, Xiguzhai was established between Papaya Fort and Huai'an Town. Dongguzhai was built thirty miles northeast, but Dongguzhai was at the forefront, which was not very safe. Therefore, Meili Fort was built between Dongguzhai and Huai'an Town. Xueni Fort was built between Xiguzhai and Huai'an Town.
Because its location is so important, Wujiao Town is thirty miles southeast, and then from Wujiao Town to 40 miles southward, it is Qingzhou City. It is only fifty miles away from Rouyuan Village. Therefore, Huai'an Town is not only the hub between Huanzhou and Qingzhou, but also the gate of the Track'an Gorge, but also the hub of other villages.
This is not the most headache. The most headache is that the commander of Huai'an is Yan Da.
He looked at it for a long time and couldn't, so he went to Huaian Town to see the situation first.
The army came to Huai'an Town in a mighty manner.
Huaian Town cannot transform into an "ice field", although it is located on the banks of the Yanqing water. However, due to the terrain, it is impossible to build a steep gate. If you cannot build a steep gate, you will not transform into an ice field.
Therefore, Renduoling Ding did not encounter the difficulties buried by Liang Yi.
But Renduoling Ding was not sure if he could conquer Huai'an Town.
So he came to the city in person and shouted to the city: "I am Renduolingding, let your General Yan come out to meet you."
If you don't attack the city, it's easy to say. Yan Da walked up to the city and said, "I am Yan Da."
"I heard that General Yan is the bravest of the three armies. Can we each draw out 4,000 troops and fight on the Yanqing River to fight to the best of the best?"
Aren't you brave? Let's play a one-piece fight.
Yan Da laughed, we're stupid.
He never got tired of deceitful soldiers, and only the foolish Duke Xiang of Song was in a gentleman's battle. But Yan Da did not expect that there was also a Duke Xiang of Song in the Song Dynasty, which was Xu Xi.
And this guy made Wang Jitou feel a headache.
It is said that he had little ambitions and had a great view of traveling around him to seek knowledge of the past and present events and customs. Therefore, he had great ambitions, so he didn't even look down on the imperial examination.
Wang Anshi's reform, he presented twenty-four chapters of "Governance Strategy", which was appreciated by Wang Anshi and Lu Huiqing, and used common clothes as a review. That's all, this boastful guy confused Zhao Xu again and immediately referred to him as the prince Zhongyunguan Pavilion to proofread the censor's clerk and supervise the censor's journey. This is a cheating master!
Of course, Yan Da didn't know that there was also a Song Dynasty Duke Xiang. But would he believe in the lord and the lord, it would be strange if he believed.
Yan Da is not afraid of playing a one-on-one challenge, but you don’t keep your promise. The Song army in front goes out of the city to prepare for a one-on-one challenge, and the tens of thousands of Xia army rush forward. By then, the four thousand Song army will be fine and Huai'an City will be over.
He said happily: "Are you braver? Okay, open the city gate."
Ren Duolingding was stunned. He was really fooled?
The city gate opened, Yan Da walked to the moat with a gun, and said, "General Renduo, can you prove whether he is brave or not. Let's do this, we will fight here."
If we don’t play that overall single-handed fight, we will see who is better.
In fact, Rendu Lingding can also fight, but Yan Da has already fought, and Rendu Lingding is really not sure to play against Yan Da.
But he proposed this one-on-one challenge, so he stammered: "General Yan, we are the chief generals of a army, how can we learn the courage of ordinary men? It is the result of a general who leads the same soldiers to decide the outcome."
"That's it..." Yan Da clasped his beard and seemed to be thinking about the feasibility of Renduolingding's proposal.
However, the Song army on the top of the city felt relieved.
So what if you have tens of thousands of troops in Xixia? Look at us General Yanda, just stand alone by this moat and chat with you with ease.
This is not the moat of summer, but the moat that has frozen. The Xia army can rush over the river at any time. With this courage, morale has increased.
"There are many generals in Ren, and the Dangxiang people have always been proud of their genitals, and they value their promises and are brave."
"No," Rendor Dingdao, our party's ethnic group is confident, why don't you send out a 4,000 army to play a one-on-one fight with me?
"This is the advantage of the Dangxiang people, but the disadvantage is that they hold grudges. There are also many Dangxiang people in the border areas of our Song Dynasty. Although their brave nature made them a powerful foreign army in our dynasty, their grudges made our dynasty officials very troubled."
"It is the man's deed that he should be vengeful. He is like you Song people, and his mother-in-law is not like a man."
"So, what Yan said is right."
"Although you and I are enemies, I agree with what you said." But Renduolingding was puzzled. Why did Yanda ask this question?
"No wonder... the Li family ruled Xixia and was recognized by many of your Dangxiang people in Xixia. Yan thought about it. First of all, the Li family was the Tuoba family of Dangxiang, one of the eight noble descendants of Dangxiang. Your founding lord of Xixia, Li Jiqin, was the biological father of the Yinzhou defense envoy, Li Guangyan, and his mother was also from an extraordinary background. Then to Zhao Deming, his biological mother was also the princess of the Wang family. Then to your Li Yuanhao, his mother was the princess of the Weimu clan, and the Weimu clan was the big surname of your Dangxiang, no less than the original eight surnames. Then to your first lord, although the Wuzang clan was not as noble as the Weimu clan, it was also considered a Wang family, which was more precious than your Renduo clan. But Yan couldn't figure it out, where was the Liang clan expensive?"
In fact, Yan Da called Li Deming Zhao Deming, which was also ridiculing the Li family as a slave of the three surnames. His original surname was Tuoba, and his surname was Li, and his surname was Zhao, and his surname was Zhao.
But this doesn’t matter. What is the origin of the Liang family?
Just a Han man who fled to Xixia to make a living.
Let’s talk about it further, that problem is even more serious. Now the little emperor of Xixia has half of the blood of Han people flowing.
So what is this bloodline for the Dangxiang people’s country Xixia?
Just like the Li Tang royal family, why did Li Yuan keep in touch with the Li family in Longyou? However, those families do not recognize it.
Your Li is fake Li.
Also, why did some later emperors avoid Li Tang's bloodline? Because Emperor Taizong of Tang and Emperor Gaozong of Tang had too many Xianbei bloodlines. It was not until the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang that this bloodline became weaker.
But is this important? It really doesn't matter, because Li Tang recognized the Han people as the main body. This is a completely different nature from the Qing Dynasty.
However, it was a little better for Li Tang, but for the Dangxiang people in Xixia, this problem was a waste of time. They were "highly expensive", but what kind of Li Bingchang is now?
There are problems with "seeds", so why should we be loyal to this country?
Renduolingding's face changed, and then he laughed: "General Yan, you have thought too much, our Daxia Dangxiang and the Han people's family."
"If it's really a Han family, why did they collide with the son?"
"Then why do you Song people use the foreign people as pioneers?"
Everyone should laugh at each other for fifty steps.
"But we can impose taxes on foreigners in the Song Dynasty?"
If you have something to gain, you will have something to pay. If a foreigner receives preferential treatment, he must pay what he has to pay. This is a natural thing.
Of course, Renduo Lingding can also answer, our Xixia is poor, but can this be said?
"General Renduo, in order for the people of the two countries to stop suffering from war, Emperor Renzong of our dynasty gave you 255,000 yuan a year. However, you Xixia people repeatedly violated the oath of the two countries and violated our dynasty many times. Yan didn't know where the nation that was brave and brave and warworthy was gone. Xinnuo, I bah! Don't play these tricks of cheating children. If you want to fight, fight. Yan is here at any time." After Yan Da finished speaking, he laughed and entered the city.
Yan Da was not deceived and instead took his own army. Ren Duolingding had to go back to discuss.
The general said, "General Renduo, why not let us attack Fort Meli."
Huaian Town is also covered with mountains, but unlike Hengshan, it is almost entirely full of plateaus, beams, and terrain.
The difference between the plain and the plain is that it is a large flat area composed of loess. However, compared with the eastern plains, some of the plateaus are divided and encroached by the valleys and are relatively broken, and the slope angle is larger than that of the eastern plains.
The beam refers to the diling hill extending in strips accumulated by loess. The special point is that the mountain is mainly soil and supplemented by stone, which is the Loess Mountain. The other is that the top of the mountain is relatively gentle and there are many valleys on both sides.
The ridge refers to a dome-shaped and steamed bun-shaped hill composed of loess. The slope is steeper than the plateau, but it is gentler than the real mountain monument, and the height is more than one hundred meters. The difference from the beam is that the beam is a dirt mountain range, and the monument refers to a separate dirt mountain.
This kind of Liangmao terrain is around Huaian Town. Although it is not so flat, there are not many sinister places.
If you want to walk the real road, you must break through Huai'an City. Of course, there are other benefits, such as wealth, materials, and food in the city.
However, if you do not break through Huaian Town, you can also rush to Yele Town behind Huaian Town from various roads outside the city, or even directly rush to Qingzhou City.
This is also the reason why it has become a private salt passage. There are too many paths. Although it is not conducive to the marching of large troops, it can also be opened to traffic and horses, and officers and soldiers cannot prohibit it. At least it is better than Liang Yi burying him in Dashun City and climbing slowly.
But the problem is that Yan Daka is behind. At this time, are you still expecting the Song Dynasty to be unprepared? Maybe only Liang Yimian was still amazed at Dou Shunqing's use of troops as if he was a god, but even Liang Yimian didn't believe what he said now.
The city of Qingzhou was blocked and Yan Da was behind him, which would be a very risky move.
Therefore, this person will recommend attacking Fort Merry.
Conquering Fort Meli is equivalent to opening up the road to Rouyuan Village, and then the three armies will be connected together.
As for the Song army that was in front of Donggu Village, they did whatever they wanted and had no time to pay attention to them.
Renda Lingding shook his head and said, "There are two armies in the east, 200,000 troops. What are we going to do? In this way, my sister Qingmeluo, you lead a 10,000 army westward and immediately take down the snow mud castle."
"Snow Mud Castle?" Meluo asked in surprise.
Snowy Castle and Meli Fort are two small forts. There were very few troops stationed in the Song Dynasty. Moreover, because the war did not come here for a long time, the maintenance was not effective, and part of the fort wall collapsed. It was not difficult to take it down.
But the problem is that the army is heading west, isn’t it further away from the main army?
"Mei Luo, the biggest disadvantage of our army's arrival this time is food and grass. If the stalemate continues, our army's food will not be able to support it for even a month, and there is Huai'an City ahead, so the space for detours is too small, which is not conducive to our army's combat."
