"How can this be done!" Hearing that Chen De proposed to marry the Uighur princess, Zhang Zhongyao immediately knelt down and reported, "This woman is the Uighur Khan respectfully sacrificed to the lord, not what the last general can do."

The people at that time had a deep concept of etiquette. They used bright yellow clothes and flags. The royal family used bright yellow. At most, the ministers could only be red and purple. The height and area of ​​the houses could not exceed the palace or official office. Even if they received a tall horse, they would have to offer it to the emperor. Things that exceeded the system could be big or small. Chen De didn't care much about it now, but Zhang Zhongyao could not ignore this festival.

Since ancient times, marriages have been made by royal nobles. Although the Uighur Khan of Ganzhou was a barbarian, he was named "Yingyi Khan" in the second year of Tongguang in the Later Tang Dynasty, and was named "Fenghua Khan" in the fourth year of Dafu in the Later Jin Dynasty. The Uighurs of Ganzhou ruled Hexi for a hundred years and were a real lord. Shortly after Zhang Zhongyao surrendered to Lanzhou, he was ordered to form the Chengying Camp and traveled around. He had not spent much time with Chen De. I wonder what his purpose was to test Zhang's intentions. When he thought about it, Zhang Zhongyao was a little scared and hurriedly declined.

Seeing that he looked like he was facing a great enemy, Chen De couldn't help but feel silent and waved his hand and said, "Person Zhang insisted on not agreeing, that's fine, but how should we deal with this marriage?"

Seeing Zhang Zhongyao retreating aside and stop talking, Li Si said, "Sir, the Uighurs in Ganzhou are very cunning. They propose marriage and surrender later. If the two families have a friendship with their father-in-law and son-in-law, how could they really treat him as a captive? The people of Hexi were disappointed when they saw our army and the Uighur Khan cooperated with each other. The last general thought that Zhang Zhongyao was very worried." He gave Zhang Zhongyao a step, saw Chen De nodding in praise, and said, "However, since the Uighurs have such a proposal, they must have no desire to fight. You can follow the situation and only accept the matter of the prince's daughter.

After all the Uighur tribes were transferred to prisoners, they were all prisoners of our army. For our Lanzhou army and the Han people in Hexi, the lord just took a female slave as a concubine. The Uighur Khan surrendered the prisoner, so naturally there would be no country..., that respectful treatment." Li Si originally wanted to say that the father-in-law was awakened and he had not established the system at this time, so he quickly changed his words and bit the word "Zhang" without saying it. The left and right prisoners knew it and smiled. With the strong military strength of Lanzhou, he had gained the Guiyi army and the Uighur forces, and it would be like a tiger to add wings. That thing would be a matter of time.

Li Si turned to Zhang Zhongyao and said, "I guess Captain Zhang would not have any objections if this happens. Even among the Zhang clan, there are many people who have taken Hu Ji as their concubines, right?"

Zhang Zhongyao felt a little hot and said in a deep voice: "Li Zhengwei is so calculating, so he can do it naturally." He strongly advocated that Chen De should not accept the Uighur princess because of clan blood. Since the Uighur princess had only the identity of a concubine, there was no need to object. "However, such an arrangement greatly humiliated the Ganzhou Uighurs. I wonder if they agreed?"

Li Si said in a deep voice: "Since the Uighurs have offered their daughters to seek peace, they have lost their fighting spirit and can fight again, so what can they do? If they know the current affairs, they will stop. If they don't know the current affairs, they will just wait for our army to complete the attack equipment and Suzhou can be put in every possible way. The lord just cherishes the lives of the soldiers and is only to be in vain with them." Chen De's face turned red with his words, and he thought to himself that he is indeed a talent, and I will pull out his hand in vain.

The major event was agreed, and the captains in the tent were all relaxed. After the victory, they were inevitably happy and energetic. Yu Furengui even said: "My Lanzhou army is trained with strong training, sharp army, courage and courage, and brave to fight a million. As long as they raise 100,000 soldiers, they are like such elite soldiers who dare to fight. What's the difficulty of winning the world for the lord?" The captains all laughed when they heard his boast.

He said with a slight interest: "If sir, if you like this taste, in the future, we will go to Beijing to take Bianliang to the east, and offer Yelu and the princess of the Zhao family to the lord as concubines." All the captains were defeated. Seeing that this group of rude men became more and more despicable, Chen De couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "If you have such skills, I will be disrespectful." His face darkened, and he said: "Let's talk about the important matter first. Is there any news on the Cao clan of Guiyi Army?"

Since the Uighur army retreated to defend Suzhou, Xin Gu led the cavalry, shoot the geese, Bashan Camp and the defenders of Yumen Pass in Shazhou came to meet with the Western Expedition Army of Lanzhou. He went to help defend Yumen Pass. Therefore, the military information west of Yumen Pass passed by him first. After hearing Chen De's question, he said: "The news that the Uighurs in Ganzhou was defeated by the Lord has spread throughout Shazhou. The Han people and the people are all happy, and the Cao family, who have formed a good relationship with the Uighurs, was in panic all day long. Recently, many envoys of Cao have gone to Gaochang and Tubo in Liangzhou for help. Another envoy broke through the blockade of our army's cavalry and went east."

"Cao is a vassal of the Song Dynasty, so he must have cried to Bianliang." Zhang Zhongyao said coldly. After being disheartened by the Bianliang officials, he helped Chen De form the Chengying Camp and travel between towns in various places. Seeing that the Central Plains court abandoned the elders of the elders and waited for the soldiers in the border towns, the Han army was weaker and weaker, and he felt more and more disgusted towards the Bianliang officials. He wanted to assist Chen De and replace him. "However, the imperial guards of the Central Plains court gathered in Bianliang and wanted to launch a large army to attack us. It would inevitably take time, and the official family was determined to take north to seize the north.

Yan Yun, I'm afraid he doesn't have the idle intention to care about the life and death of the Cao family. Although Li Shengtian, the king of Gaochang, was a relative of Cao family, Gaochang was far away and was still fighting against the black-clothed food in the west, so it was difficult to have the strength to support Yingshazhou. The only thing that was concerned was Tubo, who had always wanted to make a comeback since he was expelled from Hexi. This time, he got the opportunity to ask for help from Cao, and he could not help but take Li from the fire. There were no less than hundreds of thousands of Tubo in Liangzhou. He has been conquered with the Central Plains since the Tang Dynasty. He is cruel by nature and hard to control. He is the enemy of our army."

"Although the Bianliang officials used the Khitan as their strong enemy, they had many border troops in the four battles in the northwest. Dong Zunhui, the envoy of the Tongyuan Army and the commander of Lingzhou, had 10,000 elite troops in Huanzhou. If the Dangxiang Li family was willing to send troops, if the Xiang army was recruited again, it would be a lot of pressure on us." Seeing that Zhang Zhongyao despised the Central Plains too much, the intelligence system created by the Lanzhou Army was under his control, he introduced the general situation of the Northwest Song Army.

"It's not just pressure, it's just a pressure on Mount Tai." Chen De smiled, "But no matter how much pressure is, it will be a matter of time before the court's order is to go back and forth. Since this is the case, we have to solve the Tubo in Liangzhou, which is close to us before the court can react. Let's talk about it, are the camps tired and how many days will it take to rest before we can go to war?"

Yu Furengui immediately said, "As long as the lord gives the order, my Baiyu camp soldiers will set off immediately without delay." The captains also expressed their determination, as if all the battalions of the Lanzhou Army were iron-killed mechanical soldiers. Chen De couldn't help but smile and said, "If the soldiers are really as strong as you say, I want to conquer Liangzhou now. Let's go back first, count the number of soldiers' casualties, the military weapons, supplies, and food that need to be supplemented to solve the problem of Liangzhou.

Before Fan, let’s add some more to Shazhou.” At this time, Shazhou was under the control of the Cao clan of Guiyi Army, but the Guiyi army had been in conflict for a long time. According to Zhang Zhongyao, among the two prefectures and eight towns, four of them were dissatisfied with the Cao clan and had secret contact with the Zhang clan. Therefore, Shazhou was already ripe peaches for Chen De, and as long as the tree trunks were shaken, they would fall off. Defeating the Ganzhou Uighurs was a shock to the generals who were waiting and watching from all the divisions of the Guiyi Army in Shazhou.

Then, Chen De called Zhai Fu, the Uighur envoy of Ganzhou. He was yellow and blue, but he spoke in Chinese. The so-called fearlessness of heaven and earth, but he was afraid that foreigners would speak Chinese. This is the kind of foreigners who can scare you as soon as they open their mouths. He was wearing a white robe commonly used by Uighurs, a pointed felt hat, leather boots, and a leather belt. When he saw Chen De, he smiled and said, "Have you thought about it? Princess Alide is the most beautiful flower in our Uighur tribe, and it matches a hero like the general."

Chen De smiled slightly and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your kindness, but my soldiers said, first solve the matter between men, and then talk about women. Go back and tell Jing Qiong Khan that he will surrender to our army unconditionally before the sun is in the middle of tomorrow. I will protect his daughter."

Zhai Fu's face stagnated. He fully understood Chen De's meaning. He wanted to argue a few more words. Chen De said again: "At 3:00 a.m., all the Uighur soldiers in Suzhou will walk out of the city with bare hands and enter camps specially built for the captives under our guidance and surveillance. In order to avoid the surrender of Uighur soldiers, my noble captains and I will personally accept surrender. As long as the head of each Uighur's camp put down their military flags in front of me, even if I accept the surrender, you have heard of the future trial. Everyone is naturally not afraid of those who have no sin in their hearts. I don't mind letting them continue to live and work in Hexi. If Jing Qiong Khan does not agree to surrender, then after noon, our army will start to attack the city. Go." After saying that, he waved his hand and asked Zhai Fu to push them down. The defeated ones are not qualified to be qualified.

After hearing Zhai Fu's retelling conditions, Khan Jing Qiong clapped the table and said, "It's too much." He pulled out the scimitar angrily and waved it out of thin air, scaring Zhai Fu, who was a merchant, out of cold sweat. Prime Minister Dong Tu knew his temperament well and asked in a deep voice: "As far as you see, how are the Lanzhou Army's siege equipment built?" While speaking, he winked at Zhai Fu. Zhai Fu understood that he had been blindfolded in the Lanzhou military camp, but he did not see it.

Any siege equipment was said in a vain: "Na Lanzhou army has built nearly a thousand stone throwing machines, and stones as big as millstones are piled up like mountains. Chen De even claimed that if our army did not surrender, he would first bomb the Suzhou city wall into flat ground." At that time, the Han army in the Central Plains often used crossbows to attack the city, and the stone throwing machines were passed on from Persia, which was common in the Uighur army. Later, it was introduced to the Dangxiang and whirlwind cannons that could follow the cavalry movement. Zhai Fu listed the stone throwing tools.
