The right camp of Shence is located in the west of the capital, and is divided into two left and right armies. The left army is the general of Shence Gao Chongwen, and the right army is the general of Shence Xing Junya. The left army is the garrison of Haozhao, Linyou, Purun, and Fengtian, while the right army is stationed in Baili, Lingtai and Liangyuan, each with more than 20,000 troops. The middle-level official Tan Zhizhong is the supervisor of Shence, and he is in charge of seals in Fengtian City to handle various affairs.

This time the invasion of Xifan was prepared for the Youdaying, Fengxiang and Jingyuan camps. For a moment, the beacon towers rolled in and called the police to each other.

Therefore, after applying to the Daming Palace in the capital, Tan Zhizhong immediately stamped and sent troops, and ordered Xing Junya, the general of the Shence Right Army of Lingtai City to send 15,000 troops to advance to Bailicheng not far away. In addition, Gao Chongwen, the general of the Shence Left Army of Shence, led his troops to gather at Haozhang as a reserve force.

At the same time, in the Zichen Hall of the Daming Palace, the emperor urgently summoned Li Mi and Xiao Fu. Under the plan of these two, he issued an edict saying: Li Sheng was appointed as the governor of the commander and the commander of Jiannan to control all the troops in Xichuan, Dongchuan and Banan to prevent the commander of the Southern Dao and Nanzhao of Xifan; Duan Xiushi was appointed as the governor of the commander of the commander of Fengxiang and Jingyuan to temporarily control the military forces of the east Dao of Xifan to resist the attack of Shang Jiezan of the commander of the east Dao of Xifan. At the same time, he ordered the governor of Xuanwu Army Liu Xuanzuo and the governor of Huaixi Chen Xianqi to lead the autumn troops to come to Pingliang and start building a city; the governor of Lingzhou Kang Rizhi was appointed as the governor of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of the commander of

Han Tan, the governor of the prefecture, and Zhang Guangsheng, the governor of the Zhenwu Army, guarded against Baiyushan (Baiyushan, which stretched over 200 kilometers, located in the south of Ningxia north of Shaanxi, which is the important place that the Song and Western Xia repeatedly fought for. The name Hengshan, which has been replaced by the original name Baiyushan, has gradually become familiar to the vast area north of Hetao. In addition, it surrounded the capital of the capital, and allowed Han Yougui, the governor of Bining (Binzhou, Ningzhou) to be the north, and the governor of Weibei (in charge of the four prefectures of Dan, Fu, Yan, and Fang, among which Yanzhou is the important place), Dai Xiuyan, and the governor of Qingzhou, Lun Weiming, guarded three places, south of Baiyushan, and guarded along the capital.

Therefore, Li Sheng, Duan Xiushi, and Kang Rizhi three governors were equivalent to surrounding the capital to form a huge "outer defense circle", while Han Yougui, Dai Xiuyan and Lun Weiming formed a shrinking "inner defense circle".

Outside the internal and external defense circle, there were nearly 50,000 people from the right camp of Shence as mobile troops to support all directions. Li Mi then suggested that the emperor issue an edict to Taiyuan, requiring the Hedong Jiedushi Ma Sui to prepare 30,000 elite troops, cross the Yellow River at any time, and join the battlefield between the north and south of Baiyu Mountain, so Ma Sui's role is the general reserve team.

In addition, the emperor also had the Shence Army stationed in Jingdong and the two prefectures of Tonghua. The troops of Qu Huan, who had just been appointed as the governor of Chen Xu, and Li Mi and Jia Dan recruited near Shaanxi Guo and Dongdu. Finally, the troops of Han Hui, the defensive commander of Jin Shang and Fan Ze, and the troops of Shannan East Road, could also be reinforced at any time.

Therefore, the emperor was still full of expectations for defeating the Xifan army this time.

Li Mi, Xiao Fu, Han Huan, Jia Dan and other pro-war factions were also very confident. Jia Dan specifically submitted a letter to the emperor, saying that the invasion of Xifan in the past was in the autumn moon season, and he wanted to carry forward the advantages of growing grass and fat horses in autumn. This time, Shang Jiezan used all means to invade my border in the middle of winter. When the next spring is born, the horses will not adapt to the local conditions and will inevitably be rampant. This is equivalent to dying. As long as you can rely on your majesty and defeat Shang Jiezan severely, the morale of the people across the country will inevitably rise. Then build a city in Pingliang, and the day of counterattack is about to be on.

As for Gao Yue's Baicao Army in Xingyuan Prefecture, the emperor certainly did not forget it, but he did not let Gao Yue and Wei Gao be on the same front: Gao Yue helped Duan Xiushi, while Wei Gao went to reinforce Li Sheng.

When the emperor's edict arrived at Xingyuan Mansion quickly along Luogu Road, Gao Yue was reading the soldiers on the altar of the worshippers in the city.

In this review, except for Guo Zaizhen who originally led 4,000 Baicao soldiers and was on standby in Lueyang, Xingzhou, the other seven thousand Baicao soldiers (including the 4,000 Huaixi soldiers who added Gao Yue to the repatriation after Li Xilie was defeated), Wang Qi, the governor of Lizhou, and Zhao Guangxian, the governor of Yangzhou, all participated!

The entire Hanchuan border, from the worship of the generals to the Tianhan Tower, the city tower, buildings and residences, the people and merchants watched the audience, and cheered endlessly, soaring into the sky.

The Baicao Army's horse envoy Gao Gu, full of armor, wearing a red cloak of razes, holding a five-colored command flag, stood beside Gao Yue, waving the flags left and right as lightning: Five thousand infantry among the seven thousand Baicao Army, divided into five divisions, front, back, left and right. The central army was led by Cai Fengyuan, the front army was led by Hou Lan, the rear army was led by Cheng Junren, the left army was led by Tang Jingyan, the newly promoted Baicao Army's tooth general, and the friendly army was led by Sun Bingqian, selected from the Huaixi soldiers and prisoners of war. The five armies were organized according to each garrison and built five-color military flags, and each followed Gao Gu's command flags, and advanced and retreated and changed into formations freely in the sound of the drums that shook the sky.

Then the people of Xingyuan Prefecture shouted even more. On the field of the generals under the altar, You Yi sent Ming Huaiyi to lead 800 cavalrymen, five or five ministers, and they went in turn, sometimes like lightning bursts, sometimes like clouds gathering and dispersing, demonstrating the art of cavalry. Then the cavalrymen entered the field, pulled their bows and arrows one by one, and used horse lances to stab them left and right, and hooves were heard, all of which were proud.

The cavalry later accepted the review of the newly formed "Xingyuan Mule Army". Gao Yue promoted another Mule Army soldier named Xu Si from the prisoners in Huaixi. There were 800 mule soldiers under him, divided into left and right wings, becoming a mobile surprise soldier in the Baicao Army.

"Look, look, those horses and mules ran so neatly!" In front of the women's walls and buildings in Zicheng around the schoolyard, the people pointed and pointed, regardless of gender. On the boats docked in Lincheng, many sailors even climbed up to the mast to see Xingyuan's mule soldiers.

The mule soldiers were covered with felt cloth, and the soldiers carried a crossbow with twenty crossbow arrows, one with a card next to the animal skin and a horizontal knife, riding a horse and mule in a row, running slowly from the bench below the altar, and then when they reached the other end of the large campus, they quickly got off the mule, hooked the strings and put on the crossbow, and then shot rows of crossbow arrows into the screams of the people, and debris flew around the targets on the opposite side immediately.

In fact, the mule army in Xingyuan Mansion is a team of infantry that can move quickly, similar to the later generations of dragon cavalry. The mule soldiers drove up and down to shoot and fight, and could fill the gaps in the front line at any time on the battlefield, or ride and pursue and expand the results of the battle.

The last person to be inspected was the state army and the land group - they were all archers and crossbowmen. During the period when Gao Yue was in charge of Xingyuan Prefecture, he and the governor of Xuanrun, Han Huan, had commercial exchanges: Xingyuan Prefecture sold herbs, wheat, and wood to Xuanrun, and Xuanrun, as the most important military production base during the Tang Dynasty, sold many copper crossbows, shields, armor (of course, there were also tea, silk and other scarce supplies) to Xingyuan Prefecture. The two were in private trade in Sili.

Even the crossbowmen in the earthen regiment were trained by Xuan Runke and Zhang Xi.

The military commander Gao Gu asked 200 Xuanrun crossbowmen, each of whom was responsible for teaching ten soldiers of the Turkish regiments. After these ten Turkish regiments were trained, they would teach another ten. This kind of training was added together. In just half a year, the 4,000 state soldiers and local groups in Quanxingyuan Prefecture were all skilled in bowing and crossbow shooting skills.
