Zhang Zhang guards the edge

The exam is important, and my dad is even more important! Zhang Feng had no choice but to take leave to Weizhou and sue him. At that time, the examiners looked at Zhang Feng, with regrets in their eyes - Zhang Xiaozi, although Weizhou is not far away from Feng, but the time of the trip and the lawsuit process, you don’t have to think about this subject! While checking the leave, you are saying goodbye to you.

But soon they were shocked. Zhang Feng rushed back almost like lightning. Not only did he catch up with the exam, but he also brought his father back to clear his charges...

Awesome! This is the most awesome candidate in the history of the Northern Song Dynasty! The more awesome ones are behind. Perhaps the process of killing Weizhou to work as a lawyer for my father was too exciting. Zhang Shi was in a very popular state. His score was the Ministry of Rites test that year, and the first place in Huiyuan!

With such achievements, Zhang Feng's career was bright. He started from the magistrate of Chenliu, and was promoted to Changping, the judge of Jingdong Road Transportation, the prison of Jingdong Road Transportation, the commander of Chengdu Road Transportation, and became the right officer of the Ministry of Personnel. According to modern professional titles, he was promoted from county magistrate to procuratorial director, then to governor, and became a senior official. After one step at the top, he took the most critical step, entered the capital, and became a ministerial official... The smooth process was so smooth that it was stopped in front of Empress Dowager Gao. There was no fault of being put on the table, so he was kicked out of the capital and stood guard on the northwest frontier! Obviously this was a small microcosm of the reshuffle of the officialdom during the Yuanyou period. Later history proved that this was a small twists and turns in Zhang Feng's life, but it was a key opportunity for the destiny of the entire Song Dynasty!

Zhang Feng arrived in Qingzhou and faced the darkest era on the border of the Song Dynasty. Even during the period of Li Yuanhao, the Song Dynasty retreated step by step, and always maintained resistance and counterattack. But at this time, the old party led by Empress Dowager Gao and the old bastard demanded that the border always keep a smile and be friendly to the people of Xixia, even if they cut them with a knife!

Then the matter was simple. The people of Xixia came with a knife every year. Liang Yi-bing, the prime minister in power at that time, chopped happily. He would return to the country with a bloody knife every time and shouted to Li Yuanhao's descendants - In the past, the people of your Weiming family were in power, did you have such military achievements as me? Did you fear us in the Southern Dynasties like this?

The people of Xixia cheered all over the country. The new era has arrived. They kill the border at any time every year to steal Han people's things. Han beauties can only encounter resistance in a few big cities. In addition, they can kill and grab them at will. If they encounter an attack from the Song army in the wild, don't be afraid! A diplomatic protest can allow the Song Dynasty authorities to punish these unsightly Song troops themselves, and then return to the country slowly with apology... If you are lazy in a certain year and month, you really don't want to move, and there are big pies that fall from the sky on time smashing them on their heads. No matter how badly the Song Dynasty was cut, the annual monday would be delivered to them on time...

Is it humiliating? Is it embarrassing? The old party members don’t feel it at all. They safely hold a generous annual salary within the border line, kill the new party and the old party every day, kill the old party and the faction... It’s also very majestic to kill!

It was in this situation that Zhang Feng came to the frontier. He knew that he was the target of the old party's severe crackdown and careful care, but he did not choose to be careful and pretend to be stupid to save his life. From this moment on, everything he did was enough to comfort Song Shenzong's spirit in heaven, which was the prosperous journey that reforming predecessors such as Wang Anshi, Wang Shao, and Zhong Yan had always dreamed of!

After taking office, Zhang Feng made some tricks and built some inconspicuous forts and villages on Huanqing Road, and sent out the direct border guards in Qingzhou City, forming a layered defense circle from far and near. This was his first effort for the border defense and his first violation of military rules...

At this time, we must understand the fantasies of the old party members. They are not old-fashioned in diplomacy at all, but they love to dream very much. In their hearts, the northwest can completely replicate the situation in the north. The Liao Kingdom used to fight against the Song Dynasty and was much larger than that of the northwest. Later, through tolerance negotiations, wasn’t it reached a brotherly and friendly country? It can influence the Khitan and also influence the Dangxiang. This is the central idea of ​​the old party members. But unfortunately, the race genes determine everything. Although the Khitans are fierce, they attach importance to contracts. The Dangxiang people...

But this does not prevent Empress Dowager Gao and the old bastard from continuing to dream. Influence and education are a long-term process, we must be patient! It is reflected in the border defense, that is, the borders must be tolerant! As for safety, the heads of all states are very safe, such as the Qingzhou city walls, which are enough to ensure that Zhang Qing lying peacefully and waiting for the Xixia people to move forward...

But to be honest, Zhang Feng didn't have the patience. He made more and more small moves, and gradually changed the Huanqing Road. Several times the Xixia people came in to rob, and they ran back with blood on their faces. After more times, the Xixia authorities could not hold it in, and collectively believed that this was a provocation to the dignity of Xixia, a trampling on the good mood of the Dangxiang people, and a blasphemy to the dignity of the Liang family!

After a long list of anger, the Liang family, who was desecrated, sent their great leader. The Empress Dowager Xiao Liang of the Western Xia, took his 9-year-old son, and the Emperor of Xia Chongzong Li Qianshun, personally led an army of 100,000 to the Song Dynasty (this time, Xiao Liang led his troops personally and did not give his brother, and the Prime Minister Liang Yibu was the best. Therefore, Liang Yibu was no longer so arrogant that he did not even take Xiao Liang's back. Xiao Liang had to try to seize Liang Yibu's power.

. This time, Liang Yibu knew that there was a change in his situation, so he stepped up his treason and usurped power. Until the New Year, Liang Yibu's conspiracy was exposed and was killed by his own sister Xiao Liang's royal family.) The Liang family was very smart. They attacked the east and west and rushed to Qilulang first. It was the outpost facing Jingyuan Road on the border of Songxia. After waiting for the Song army to react and gather at Jingyuan Road, they suddenly turned and rushed to Huanqing Road!

The perfect feint was carried out by all cavalry troops. 100,000 troops passed the plain like a wind. The dull and cowardly Song army was destined to lose the first move. I have already figured out that there were only 50,000 soldiers and Han gangs in the Huanqing Road. As long as the first strike was heavy enough, the gate of the Song Dynasty could be smashed open immediately... The Liang family and the Xixia soldiers were also thinking this way. After 7 days, they became crying and tears. How could they think about it in advance? The Zhang Yu they faced was Wang Shao, who had the first generation of anti-Xia generals in the Song Dynasty, who had reached the border of Xihe River, and all the famous generals in the past 60 years... only they could not imagine, but Zhang Yu could not do it!

Everything was normal at the beginning of the war. The Xixia people fought. They pushed forward all the way. The Song army was hit by the forts and the forts built by them. Later, they saw them killing from afar, and the Song army retreated directly! Of course they didn't know that the first military order given by Zhang Qing was to order the Song army responsible for the resistance to "the thieves come in and I retreat" to let them fight as much as possible until they hit the city of Huanzhou. No one was a little tired from here. Even if the invincible demolition team worked all the way, they had to take a breath and drink a little water...

After drinking the first sip of water, Xixia is destined to die! Zhang Feng is a very thorough person. He poisoned the water system near Huanzhou City. You people are too many, right? Unless you can return to Xixia to transport water, there will be only one ending in poisoning! Who does this move look like? It has the shadow of Gao Zunyu, the first foreign relative of Tianzi, then? Later, Zhang Feng transformed into Fan Zhongyan, and the iron wall appeared. Under Huanzhou City, more than 100,000 Xixia soldiers were fighting for the city. After fighting, they just used their lives to exchange bricks...

Such a transaction cannot be done. Collective poisoning and the tall and thick city walls have always been a mighty person. Xiao Liang, who is lawless, also feels hope is slim. OK! After 7 days, I will use my old traditions to withdraw my troops and return home, and rob them along the way! I will make a fortune as a travel fee...

This time it was still normal at the beginning. They kept their formation and robbed while walking. The Song army hurried in their respective fortresses and watched them walk far away. This road continued to Suyuan Village, which was almost at the border. This village was very poor, a pure military village, with no money, only swords. The people of Xixia have always ignored such places. They passed by quietly and continued to walk far away... When they approached the next military village, Hongde Village, suddenly there was a fire behind them! That was Suyuan Village. Could it be that the group of Song Dynasty soldiers were going to do something?

The answer is wrong! The tricks are right beside the people of Xixia, and have been waiting for them for a long time! The fire lit up in Suyuan Village is a signal, telling the ambushers in Hongde Village that can come out to cut people! The person who cut people was a famous man, the Zhe family in the Prefecture. The Zhe family, which accounts for half of the bloodline of the Yang family generals of the Northern Song Dynasty's martial anger! At this time, the head of the Zhe family was named Zhe Keshi. He led the most elite Zhe family army of the Western Army of the Song Dynasty, 10,000 main force, and after the Western Xia soldiers entered the country, he kept lying here...

Ambush is a technical job. Comparing the troops at 1:10, even in the middle of the night, we must pay attention to methods. Zhe Keshi first let go of the front troops of the Xixia army and chopped in the middle. The process was very exciting, with flesh and blood flying everywhere, and the Xixia people quickly fell down a large area. But after the initial raid phase, the overall advantages of the Xixia people were revealed: there were too many people, and they were all cavalry! The Xixia people quickly transferred the most elite army of iron kite, and arranged a square array with heavy armored cavalry, which not only blocked the attack of the Song army, but also quickly counterattacked back...

Zhe Keshi immediately withdrew his troops. Behind him was Hongde Village, which was ready inside, and whatever he wanted. When the iron kite rushed over, he first had a round of divine arm bow, followed by a newer weapon, tiger squat cannon, which made the Western Xia cavalry look for teeth. At the same time, he found that the war horses were in pain, and many of them were lame. Only then did he find that the surroundings of Hongde Village were covered with iron caltrops, which were thrown down by the Zhe family army just now...

This battle cannot be fought! In the dark night, who knows what strange tricks the Song Dynasty people have? Retreat! As a result, Zhe Keshi, who had just run faster than a rabbit, suddenly rushed out again, chasing endlessly. The people of Xixia were anxious for a moment, and ran in the wrong direction in the dark night and rushed towards a large mountain valley... At this point, Xiao Liang was scared and paralyzed. She threw away all the jewelry, jewelry, imperial robes, jade belts, etc., put on a soldier's coat, and then fled back to her hometown in Xixia...

An unprecedented victory, I have never had such a good time in five or six years! Ke Ji Ke Shi, and Zhang Feng from Qingzhou City was cursing. ****, only a little bit away. I could have caught Xiao Liang, Li Ganshun, and the 100,000 Xixia people!

The ambush of the Zhe family army was only part of Zhang Yue's plan. Another general, Li Hao, led the double military force, and a total of 100 people were rushing around outside the war zone. He should have appeared near Hongdezhai to cooperate with the ambush to wipe out the Xixia army! But after running 100 miles late at night, it made people and horses scarce. When approaching the battlefield, Li Hao had a nerve attack. He didn't believe that Zhe Keshi had won a great victory. He stationed troops to watch, allowing the Xixia people to successfully escape from the ambush circle and run farther and farther away...

The Huanqing Road War brought a blow to Xixia, but it brought torture to the old party bosses in Kaifeng City - this chapter is too annoying and troublesome!

Is there any war report? Suppress it! Have military achievements? Let's discuss it again! Zhang Qing himself? Calm down first and then cool down, let alone promotion and wealth, not to mention the battle of Huanqing Road, he was transferred from the northwest and went to the south to become an official...

What the old party wants is peace, peace! Don’t you understand? The struggle can only be carried out internally. [31 Novel Network] Outside, you must be gentle and gentle, and be kind, so that all friendly countries can be comfortable...

In the 8th year of Yuanyou (109), Mogus's Bu team attacked the Daliao. In the month, the northwest road recruited Yelu Alu Saogu to suppress the rebellion. The vanguard supervisor Xiao Zhangjiu returned with great defeat. Subsequently, the two chambers, the sixth courtyard department, the herds officers, and the palace division were defeated one after another. The rebellion of the Bu team gradually became a prairie fire...

On April 1, Xixia sent envoys to apologize and were willing to exchange Lanzhou for Saimen and Anyuan Village, but was rejected.

On July 1, Fan Chunren was recalled and was appointed as the Minister of Shangshu Youpu She and the Minister of the Secretariat.

The life of Empress Dowager Gao in the 'Female Yao and Shun' finally came to an end. In July and August, she felt that she was not good enough, and once again summoned the priests to the bedside. This time she seemed very sad and said this sentence, "I was entrusted by Emperor Shenzong to the palace to listen to the government. 9 years have passed. Do you tell me what I have done to my parents? Just because I must be fair, I have a son and a daughter who died of illness and never saw her." After saying that, she shed tears... I believe she was telling the truth at this time, and she shed tears of real sorrow in her heart. When a person is about to die, she no longer needs to be hypocritical...

But it is precisely because of this that she saw her real problem. In the first sentence, she corrected herself, and the reason why she ruled behind the curtain was arranged by the late emperor Song Shenzong, and she was not greedy for power...

Half the credibility. Because Song Zhezong was too young, Shenzong could only entrust her to my mother before he died, which is reasonable. But what about the other half? Song Shenzong allowed her to rule from behind the curtain, but he just wanted her to be the guardian. Who asked her to change her son with her mother and turn the world around? Is this also the power given to her by Shenzong?

What's more, last year, the 17-year-old Song Zhezong was married, but she still did not return to power. Isn't this greed for power?

As for more than 8 years, she was indeed very stingy with her parents' family, but there was no need to go high and take it as her political achievements, right? She suppressed the strength of her relatives and avoided the arrogantness of her relatives in the Han Dynasty. But this was the Song Dynasty. In the past, there were so many queens and empress dowagers who had seen her parents' family out of particularity? Just like she could play Wu Zetian at any time, she was just because her morality was too grand, so she couldn't bear it...

As for the son and daughter who died of illness and did not visit me, I was speechless and could not think of any noble place. Looking back on the history of the Song Dynasty, when Zhao Guangyi was seriously ill, Zhao Kuangyin went to visit me, picked up the ai fire and roasted it on himself, and tested the pain, which made people deeply feel the elder brother's love for his younger brother's father. Zhenzong celebrated his old aunt's birthday and respected him like his mother. Renzong licked the eyes of the blind elder sister, which moved the entire relatives. Compared with these, Empress Dowager Gao's deliberate intention was simply ignorant. He ruined his son's life achievements and suppressed his grandson until he was dying. His son and daughter did not visit him. All kinds of bad deeds were combined, and he said that she was cold and weak by nature, was he very kind?

But she never felt that she had done something wrong. Looking back on her life, she felt that everything was right. Is there any need for treacherous, thick black and other things? This is really the most terrifying type of person! Such people have different abilities and similar personalities. In the Song Dynasty, the two representatives were Wang Anshi and Empress Dowager Gao...

Two people who are extremely confident and never say wrong. They led the Song Dynasty to two completely different directions, and also caused completely opposite results, but at the same time they both firmly believe that they are the most correct... This makes people sigh: Confidence and stubbornness are only a little bit different! So, no matter how abilities are, you must still be a little sober and often doubt yourself. Didn’t Confucius’ disciple, Mencius’s master Zengzi, also say, “I examine myself three times a day”
