"It's finally here," Cai Ting was a little worried and happy. +++

Due to the opponent's strength, Cai Ting was also anxious. The main reason was that victory became a normal state, and everyone's mentality was calm, but failure became a normal state. When the enemy came again, anyone would be anxious.

Cai Ting frantically asked the court for money, silk, weapons and supplies, and Han Qi made Cai Ting impatient.

And with Cai Ting's soft and hard force, the three leaders Wang Su, Wang Juyuan and Li Shen were also very annoyed. But this force also had some effect, so the three had to support it. It was very powerful for their support, so the volume of soybean wine trading surged. Every day, countless soybean wine was dumped into Tubo through boats, cars and horses, and then exchanged for fur and medicinal materials, as well as the Western Regions goods transported from the Southern Silk Road to Jingzhao Prefecture, and then dumped by merchants from Jingzhao Prefecture to various parts of the Central Plains.

The money earned became war horses, making everyone with more than a dozen battalions of cavalry on Huanqing Road have horses.

It turned into weapons and armor, some began to let the soldiers change their clothes, and some entered the state library.

It turned into meat, and with hard practice, the soldiers' bodies became stronger.

It turns into money and silk, and continues to reform and reward.

However, Cai Ting was very careful. The troops on Huanqing Road were not in Huanzhou and Qingzhou. In addition to Fanluo and Qiangmen, the troops on the front line were only more than ten battalions of officers and soldiers. In order to confuse the enemy, these more than ten battalions of officers and soldiers continued to pretend to be weak.

The reward was not distributed to the soldiers, and Cai Ting also learned from Wang Ju and distributed it to the soldiers' families in the rear. Therefore, the scouts in Xixia could not find out.

Apart from Huachi County, the real place for training troops has been made public and there is no need to hide it. There is no need to hide it. If you train troops and strengthen the army, there are only a few thousand soldiers and horses, and they will not be placed in the eyes of the Xixia people. All the rest were led by Zhang Yu and Zhongdian to be taken to remote river valleys or forts in the rear for training, and Cai Ting ordered that all roads be blocked and no outsiders should be allowed to enter. Therefore, the Xixia people did not find out. In order to confuse the enemy, even the Fan Luo Army did not distribute horses for the time being, but kept in the valleys behind.

The two major workshops mobilized hundreds of craftsmen, plus three or four hundred apprentices, who were young children recruited from the people's homes.

In ancient times, the rules of learning art were very strict, and even had to pay money to become a disciple. After becoming a disciple, the master often concealed his skills and did not teach him. It was not until n years after learning and the master squeezed out a lot of value that he could teach his true skills according to his disciple's performance.

Ironmaking is also a skill, and the government has also given some money and silk, so the people have no complaints on this apprentice. It is just that it is not made public for the sake of concealment. Otherwise, people will also register enthusiastically.

In addition, many officers and soldiers were drawn to do some tricks.

However, the two major workshops were protected so they were not fully protected, so Xixia had not yet found any truly useful information.

The wine mobilized a lot, but what alarmed some senior officials of the Song Dynasty were in the rear. The Xixia people could find out, but no one would have the vision to pay attention.

But this was hidden from the Western Xia, and the imperial court could not hide it.

So Cai Ting also went into the sea. Once Xixia does not violate it after autumn, even he will make a huge joke.

Hearing that the Xixia people started ordering the party and were preparing to go out, the outcome was unpredictable, Cai Ting was a little worried, but his heart was half gone.

No matter what, the Xixia people are indeed about to leave the army, and no one dares to laugh at him.

Wang Ju's heart was also lost. Although Cai Ting's official position was high, he was just a follower. He was the first to set the stage. He did not invade, but the movement of Huanqing Road was so great. After the truth was revealed, the ministers in the court would be able to drown themselves with their spit.

He said: "Mr. Cai, now the people in Xixia have started to order food. They also want to wait until the autumn grain is collected before they will go out to join the army, so that they can bring more food and grass. But it is good news for us, at least it can be delayed for another month."

Every day of the battle, the strength of Huanqing Road can be increased by one point. The later it is, the stronger the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers of Huanqing Road battalions will be.

"Wang Ju, from our perspective, this is true, but have you ever thought that Xixia has just started to gather troops now. As you said, it is to wait for food and grass, but they will definitely send more troops. Otherwise, if the Xixia sent few troops, they would have harvested last year and spring, and the food and grass were about to be enough. Moreover, they would also plunder the troops, and plundering can replenish some food and not have to wait for their autumn grain."

"Mr. Cai is right. If you look at it from the other party's perspective, clicking the game at this time means that there are a lot of troops sent. Maybe they want to fight a protracted battle."

"It's not small ambition." Zhang Feng said on the side.

If it is just an attack on Dashun City, why fight a protracted battle?

If you fight a protracted war, it is not Dashun City, but... Qingzhou City!

"My husband, don't be surprised. Didn't this be expected?"

Cai Ting stroked his beard and was thinking about countermeasures. However, Xixia has only started to click on the list now, and the news here is limited, so it is impossible to find out how many soldiers and horses will be sent. If you don’t know the specific number, you can’t come up with a good countermeasure.

Wang Ju said again: "Mr. Cai, let's talk about it. Xixia likes to win less. After several battles in Qingli, was there a small amount of troops deployed that time?"

"Yes, in fact, our dynasty's approach is inappropriate. If this time, Xixia poured countless troops into Qingzhou, the troops in other areas would be empty. So what about the other routes to attack Huanqing Road defense and how many other routes take the initiative to attack?" Zhang Qing said again.

This strategy seems to be very good. For example, this time the Western Xia invasion, Qingzhou quickly delivered the news to Fulin Road and Qinfeng Road with special foot delivery. If the army wanted to reach these two routes, it would take many days. The express delivery time of the express horse would not be too long, and it would arrive in two or three days.

There are many cavalry in Xixia, and the marching speed is fast, so the order can be slow. The order of the Song Dynasty was also slow, but depending on how to order, if there were not more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, it would be easy to attack with only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. If there were no more than 100,000 soldiers and horses along the way, they would be in various forts and forts. Then within five days, they could quickly launch a counterattack from the other two routes, and then the Xixia people would have a headache.

"My husband, it's not okay. That's the cooperation of the five routes, and the court must support it, but the court supports spending money to buy peace. There are too many ministers who value peace. Secondly, the chiefs of the five routes must have certain military talents. They must be like Mr. Cai. Otherwise, they will have soldiers in their hands. They will be defeated by the enemy with less due to mistakes in using troops. However, how many ministers in the court can really use troops? Therefore, the chiefs of the five routes understand military affairs, which is even more impossible. Besides, that would be a war. Does the country have so much financial resources now?"

Wang Ju paused and said, "This is just like the noble man in the capital, just like the shallow attack tactics you mentioned. Because even if you lose, you will not suffer a crushing defeat. Then Xixia will enter a war of attrition, and the military system mainly consists of the military system mainly consisting of the permanent soldiers and the recruitment system. The finance alone will drag down Xixia. If we ignore it, we can only watch our army advance step by step based on the fortress and even take down the entire Hengshan Mountain. If Hengshan is lost, can Xixia still defend it? But now it is not possible, the soldiers are not strong, the battalions do not pay attention to scouts and intelligence, and there are not many qualified commanders and commanders of the generals, and there are also this... finance."

"Where is money..." Although a gentleman is ashamed of making a profit, Zhang Feng sighed. It is not good to talk about money, can it be okay not to talk about money?

"You guys think too far," Cai Ting said with laughter and cry.

As he said that, he picked a sorghum and returned to Qingzhou City. What money does he have to ask for?

Regardless of whether this sorghum was made by Wang Juzhi, it comes from Qingzhou, and is not a lucky ear piled up with fertilizer alone, but a huge ear produced by energy. This is also a great achievement and a reason to make money.

Besides, the people of Xixia started to gather troops, so they really wanted to start fighting. Emperor, Mr. Han, don’t you give me more money and supplies?

It is still too late to ask for it now, but no matter how late it is, it is too late.

…………

The clouds of war are approaching.

Ye Fengma was also paying attention to the movements in Qingzhou. Several scouts brought them up. Ye Fengma asked, "Is there any movement in the Song Dynasty?"

One of them replied: "No, if there is any movement, only Huachi County will be in motion, and some armor has been changed."

"This king!" Ye Fengma said hatefully, why can he change his armor and weapons and reward soldiers? The money is the wealth exchanged from Xixia with soy sauce. It turns out that he didn't understand this problem. It was because it was part of the wealth of Xixia, but this was a transaction, mainly because of the huge wealth of the Song Dynasty as its foundation, and the profit was also generated by the goods exchanged from Xixia and trading again on the Song Dynasty.

Anyway, Ye Biaoma now wants to eat Wang Ju’s flesh and peel Wang Ju’s skin.

Ye Fengma began to record the information inquired by the scout and report to Li Liangzuo.

The thousands of officers and soldiers in Huachi County became Ye Fengma's thorns, but the overall situation in Huanqing still made Ye Fengma very optimistic. Moreover, Huanqing Road can be considered a good weather and good growth in the year, and these grains are the supply of the Xixia army in the future. The better it grows, the more beneficial it will be to the Xixia army's attack.

He wrote down these situations in pieces and asked his subordinates to send them to Xingqing Mansion.

Song Ji retreated and went home.

Xiangyu asked strangely: "Official, what's wrong, I feel a little unhappy."

"I always feel a little uneasy."

"Where is the uneasy? Are the officials worried about the attack of Xixia? Officials, you have talent, but the Song Dynasty doesn't need you, it's the Song Dynasty that will let you down..."

"I'm still thinking about what the Song Dynasty is good, not this."

"Why is that?"

"Do you think that little magistrate is a powerful person?"

Xiangyu recalled that Wang Ju had met her with the waiter of the Zhu family. Then, because of Maomao, the boy was angry and left. At the beginning, he thought he was talented and a little proud, but he didn't expect to grow up so quickly. After thinking about it, Xiangyu said, "It's very awesome."

"Is he a tolerant person?"

"It seems to be."

"Now the new magistrate of Gyeongju is more cowardly than the previous two magistrates. But that kid continued to train in a swagger as if he didn't see it..."

"Isn't Sun Mian equally cowardly at the beginning? But did that kid take Sun Mian seriously?"

"No, I always feel something is wrong." Song Ji said distressedly, but he couldn't say it.
