Chapter 113

In Zhuoluo and Nancheng, Yuan Hao was holding a table in the tent, chewing a lamb leg, and occasionally holding up the wine glass beside him to drink a large gulp. The wine was strong wine, from Song Dynasty, and it was said that it was produced from the Xu family in Kaifeng City, the Xu Ping family who was the commander of the Song Dynasty. The trade between the two countries was optional for the Song Dynasty, and Dangxiang was not good. They even had problems with the goods left Song Dynasty. The two countries had military service and had discontinued the dispute. Yuan Hao encouraged his subordinates to organize smuggling trade in the Song Dynasty. He had no concept of buying what not to buy. As long as it was good, they would be smuggled to Dangxiang. In order to show the national style and the difference from the Han people, Yuan Hao wore fur and lived in a large tent, and most of the food was smuggled from Song Dynasty.

Just as Yuan Hao was eating happily, Zhuo Luo and Nan's chief military officer Duo Baoqing hurried in and saluted: "Your Majesty, you have discovered the Song army in the south of the city and will not stop harassing, and many wanderers outside the city have lost!"

Yuan Hao threw the lamb leg in his hand, stood up suddenly, and asked sternly: "Did the Song army cross the river and attack? They did not have the Lanzhou garrison, and they had to cross the river for a long time. Why didn't you mention it a few days ago?"

Many people Baoqing saw Yuan Hao's eyes wide open, as if he wanted to choose someone to eat, so he couldn't help but take a step back and said, "We have been staring at the Song army these days, and there is no movement to cross the river. Now we just found out that their scouts may not have a large army crossed the river."

"Oh, it turns out that it's just a scout." Yuan Hao sat back again, "Speaking of all, the Han people cannot compare to our foreigners. Their army moves, not like our gathering and dispersing, and coming and going like the wind. The Song army's newly built city in Kangu has a hundred miles to come to us, even if it is prepared intact, it will take five or six days on the road. By the way, are there any Song army scouts nearby before?"

"Yes, every few days later, there will always be a scout in the Song army nearby to harass them. After a day or a day, they will retreat by themselves."

Yuan Hao said angrily: "Since you have daily life, why are you so panicked this time? What a moral thing to be afraid of! "

When many people saw Yuan Hao angry, Baoqing hurriedly said, "It seems that there are too many people coming this time. Since the early morning, no escorts have returned in the south and east of the city for most of the day. Besides, the scouts of the Song army have never been so close to Zhuoluo City, so it is strange."

Yuan Hao pondered for a while, shook his head: "Can I get the news when I arrived at Zhuo Luo? There was no such thing before. If the news leaked, it would be reasonable for the Song army to come and inquire. The Sansi on the opposite side defeated King Yuzang and my nearly 10,000 troops a few years ago, which was a bit difficult. He dared to send troops to spy on such a close distance."

Baoqing whispered: "Your Majesty, I have recently received news. Because of the victory before the New Year, the Qinzhou General Xu Ping was promoted to the post again. What kind of civilized palace scholar is the bachelor of the Civilization Palace?"

Dangxiang's official system was established in the Song Dynasty, but it was not a system, and there were many inexplicable official positions. Dangxiang was not established at this time, and Yuanhao didn't even know how many names or official ranks there were. After hearing the words of Baoqing from many people, he asked strangely: "Bachelor of Civilization Palace, is this official very big? Is it even bigger than his original Sansi Envoy?"

Many people said, Baoqing said, "I heard from Han merchants who came and went that in Song State, this is the name of the prime minister's position outside the prime minister, which is considered to be a huge hit. Now the Fanluo in Qinzhou calls Xu Ping a civilized man."

"I am civilized, I am civilized, and I am actually prime minister!" Yuan Hao said silently and sneered, "After a few days, we will arrange for the people in Kangu to seize their city, and I will lead the army to cross the river and fight with this civilized me! He defeated King Yuzang and captured my beloved general and the rewarder, and see how capable I am!"

Baoqing stood aside. Seeing that Yuanhao was about to drink and eat meat again, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the Song army has sent so many scouts, so he must have a plan. If they find that there are many more soldiers and horses in Zhuoluo City, and with His Majesty's ceremonial guards, they will naturally be able to guess that His Majesty is here. In this way, they will be prepared and will not be beneficial to our attack on Kan Valley."

Yuan Hao put down the wine glass he picked up and said, "What you said makes sense! We are not good at attacking the city. If the Song army is suspicious and sees out my trick of surrendering and seizing the city, this time it will be in vain. No, don't let them know that I am in Zhuoluo City! Go and call the governor Yeliyuqi, and ask him to send elite troops out of the city to drive away the annoying Song army scouts!"

Many people responded to the promise and turned around and left Yuanhao's tent.

The Military Supervision Office is an institution that integrates military affairs and is in charge of military affairs. The military status, training, and some small-scale conflicts are all dominated by the Military Supervision Office. However, when the war is real, Yuan Hao will directly send his confidants to the Chief Commander and Deputy Chief Commander. At this time, the military command of the Military Supervision Office will be moved to the Chief Commander. Yeli met the Quei’s right wing. When Yuan Hao came, he had to condescend to the post of the Chief Commander Zhuo Luo and Nan, inspect the surrounding troops, and cooperate with the main force of the Party Xiang led by Yuan Hao.

Yeli got into the tent of the general. After hearing Yuanhao's orders, he said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, it's afternoon now. When you wait until you can order all your troops, it's almost evening. It's late February now, there is no moon in the first half of the night, it's pitch black."

Yuan Hao was stunned for a moment and waved his hand and said, "You go and order all the troops first, and wait until you leave the city tomorrow morning to drive the Song army away!"

Yeli met Qi Yingnuo, and wanted to remind Yuanhao that the Song army scouts cleared the soldiers south of Zhuoluo City and isolated the news of the Yellow River. If the Song army had any movement along the Yellow River, our army knew nothing. Seeing that Yuanhao was only concerned about drinking and eating meat, I thought about it and let it go. Yeli was a major clan of Dangxiang, and Yuanhao's wife came from their family. At this time, the local military power in the left and right wings was divided by Yeli brothers, and Yuanhao controlled the most elite Dangxiang Central Army.

However, after Yuan Hao became emperor, his ambitions expanded and his attitude towards the rich chiefs in the country became arrogant. He did not take the Yeli clan seriously. At this time, his old and debilitated wife, Yeli, lost her pony again, and the two were superimposed on the relationship between Yeli brothers and Yuanhao. If it were the past, Yeli would definitely remind Yuan Hao of every mistake, and now he would not have the thoughts.

At this time, the scouts of the Song army advanced from the north bank of the Yellow River. According to the map that had been drawn long ago, after cleaning up Dangxiang Youzhang, they occupied every high ground and used a telescope to closely monitor any movement. South of Zhuoluo City, Dangxiang had become blind.

This was the method of Dangxiang and Khitan to deal with the Song army in the past. As soon as they marched, they rode out everywhere and harassed them everywhere, causing the Song Dynasty to call the police everywhere within hundreds of miles, and they could not figure out the location of their main force. The Jiyisi, under Xu Ping's tent, received only less resources than Wang Kai's counselor Military Department, and would not give Dangxiang this opportunity. Their main force was stared at by hundreds of miles away. In turn, they used their scouts to clean up Dangxiang's Youzhang and made a time difference of several days.

At this time, Sang Yi's vanguard troops had arrived at the pass east of Zhuoluo City, and a large number of cavalry scattered out, firmly controlling the surrounding low hills. Gao Daquan's vanguard troops arrived near the pass near the evening, and the two armies got in touch.
