Suzhou, located in the middle section of the Hexi Corridor, has been an important military and commercial city since ancient times. Because the Western Xia and the Song Dynasty had a ferocious relationship, Xixia increased its commercial taxes in order to make money. The Silk Road mostly detoured from Tubo in the Song Dynasty, so all cities, including Suzhou, were somewhat declining. After the Song Dynasty obtained Hehuang, the commercial road was rebuilt along both sides of Qinghai Lake and built a very wide sand defense forest. At this time, several years passed, the sand forests were shady, so more caravans detoured the Southern Silk Road, causing the business of the Hexi Corridor to shrink and Suzhou to decline. At the southern end of Suzhou, there were also several small paths that reached Qinghai. Since the Song Dynasty blocked the road last year, it once became an important smuggling business road. However, the grass-tow Tatar at the other end was declining, and the road was blocked with ice and snow, and Suzhou was not strictly defended.

However, this ice and snow weather also caused the Song army to decline. When Qu Zhen marched to Suzhou, the whole city began to be martial law. This is not the main thing. The main thing is the Yan Army Division of Heishui Town. The north of the Hexi Corridor is the desert, which is the famous Tengri Desert in later generations. It is now also a desert, but it is not as bad as later generations. There are many oasis and even lakes in the desert. For example, the lower reaches of Shiyang River, which impacts two lakes, and its area is no less than Chaohu Lake in later generations. The Shiyang River is located in the Shiyang River.

The lake water system nurtured many nomadic peoples. But this is not the largest body of water. The largest body of water is from Shandan River, the source of Qilian Mountains, and then to Heihe River in Suzhou. After passing the ancient Great Wall, it is also called Ruoshui. The downstream of Ruoshui is located on the border of Xia and Liao, forming three lakes, which is Yanhai, which is the arrival of China. Chapter 1, and no one pays attention to it. Since the Song army sent troops to Ganliang. Except for the Heishan Military Office organized troops to support Suzhou, Xixia soldiers and soldiers had no time to leave, so they watched the four states of the Hexi Corridor be lost.

Liang's rogue was very powerful. February is coming, and the preparations are completed, and the army will be sent to attack Lianglan and the two states. This is a helpless thing. Xixia obtained the Hexi Corridor, which was a Hexi Corridor with various races. Everyone had their own thoughts. Then they scattered from the edge of the desert and invaded various places, and finally took the Hexi Corridor. Now that it was taken by the Song Dynasty, Xixia dared not repeat the same trick, and that would be provided by the Song army's diligence after cutting off the sections. They could only attack Lanzhou and Liangzhou. But on the other hand, as long as Liangzhou is captured, the Song army alone will be able to withdraw from Qinghai and the Hexi Corridor will be taken back.

But it's still not enough.

Liang sent envoys to blame the Song Dynasty for invading the Hexi Corridor.

The Song Dynasty answered very righteously. It was not difficult to return the Song Dynasty to the Hexi Corridor. He asked the people of Xixia to clear the emperor, restore the Han rituals, and let Li Bingchang take charge of the rule. At the same time, he killed thirty evil people, including the Liang family and the generals such as Renduolingding.

If only the Han Li and Li Bingchang were restored to power, Liang would definitely agree. The key is the candidate for the next thirty people, and Liang would not be able to kill him. If he killed him, all the arms of Liang would be broken, and her fate would be very miserable. She could keep her son in check, why couldn't her son be closed? It was even worse than the year when Wu Zetian was dying.

Liang also knew that he could not get back, so after hearing that Liang Gan had lost, he sent an envoy to ask the Khitan for help.

The Khitan had a good relationship with the Song Dynasty in recent years, especially last year when the Song Dynasty dedicated seeds, which made many Khitan ministers praise the friendship of the Song Dynasty. And there is another aspect that can also be seen in the friendship of the Song Dynasty. After the Song Dynasty occupied Hehuang, the Khitan princess who did not pay attention to Dong Wen was granted three thousand pieces of silk, one thousand taels of gold, and three thousand taels of silver. In fact, the miserable Khitan princess Ling Jiemo had no say in Tubo at this time. Why did the Song Dynasty reward so much? This also proves that the Song Dynasty respected the Khitan.

But the Khitan did not want the Song Dynasty to embezzle the Hexi Corridor. Under this conflicting mentality, he sent envoys to Song for inquiries.

The Song Dynasty immediately gave a reply. At that time, Di Qing obtained the six prefectures of Xixia, and were the six most important prefectures in Xixia. Their lairs were located, but they were quickly handed over to Xixia. This time it was the same. The Western Xia was treacherous and chaotic. The Liang family seized the military and political power and had never had a friendly attitude towards the Song Dynasty. They offended the border year by year.

However, Li Bingchang advocated restoration of Han rituals, diligent and loving the people, and did a lot of achievements. Therefore, the Song Dynasty sent troops to the Hexi Corridor and forced the Western Xia to return to power Li Bingchang. As long as the Western Xia returns to power, the Song Dynasty would return the Hexi Corridor to Xixia.

After the Khitan listened to the envoys back to report, he believed and suspected. It seemed that the Song Dynasty had always been stupid in diplomacy. Di Qing returned to the six states, and this was indeed true. In addition, the war has not increased its troops in the northwest until now, and most people believed it.

To a certain extent, the Khitan mentality was the same as the one in which the Xia and Liao battled the Song Dynasty. It would be best if the two countries fought to the death.

This mentality of watching the show and the mentality of being suspicious, and the Khitan was also greedy for the seeds of grains after the autumn. Therefore, he remained silent about the Song Dynasty's troops sent to the Hexi Corridor.

The Three Kingdoms are arguing, but the governance of Ganliang has begun.

Zheng Lang recommended Zhao Tingzhi, so the court used Zhao Ting to preside over the pacification task before. In order not to show his intention to occupy the Hexi Corridor, the Song Dynasty did not set up Ganliang Road, and only gave Zhao Tingzhi the position of Ganliang Pacification Envoy. Cooperate with Zhang Ju to appease the people.

Then a large amount of supplies were transported from Shaanxi.

Because of the Song Dynasty's ban on merchants, the Western Xia Dynasty's heavy accumulation and economic collapse, the people in the entire Hexi Corridor lived a very difficult life. A horse could only exchange for half a piece of silk for a time, how much price rose. But in front of the Song army, a large number of silk cloth, tea and porcelain, iron paper, medicinal materials and spices, grain and alum wine, came rolling in.

It is not provided free of charge. It is too wasteful of money. Zheng Lang repeatedly warned that ethnic policies should not be despised, abused, or harsh in daily life, but he should not be spoiled. If you become an old man today, if you have a bad place tomorrow, these tribes will cause trouble or even rebel. How to govern the people of the Central Plains, and how should they be governed by the various foreign tribes?

Therefore, these goods were handed over to local people in two ways. One was commercial exchange, but not the current price, but very reasonable prices. These goods were exchanged back through fur and livestock and some local specialties.

This is enough, and prices will be settled soon.

Also, it was to move out a small amount of goods and hand them over to the people in the form of freight forwarding, so that the people and prisoners of war could cooperate with the Song Dynasty to build more than a dozen forts and forts at some important checkpoints, and expand the current main road.

At the same time, the news came out secretly, and the four states of Gan and Liang will also implement the foreign patrol system.

The Fanhou system mainly enlists and buys all ministries, makes them return to their hearts, differentiates the influence of the Dong-jiu royal family, weakens the autonomy of the various ministries, and allows Hehuang to be stable quickly and the court to govern and control this area.

The tribes in the Hexi Corridor are the same, whether it is the Western Xia governance or the Song Dynasty. They have no autonomy anyway, so they are not very repulsive. On the contrary, the Song Dynasty ruled would not have the tyranny of the Western Xia rule. Even because of the Song Dynasty ruled, the Silk Road would prosper again. The various concessions in the Fanhou system made them feel surprised.

But before the Song Dynasty's ambition was exposed, the Song Dynasty did not publicly admit the matter.

The attack on the Hexi Corridor was "management" and forced Xixia to restore its monarchy, and it would be handed over to Xixia.

This is said, but not done so.

Then the Song Dynasty forced a large number of nobles from the four prefectures, as well as some tribes loyal to the Xixia and bravely resisted the Song army, to Xixia. There were many people in this group, after all, Xixia had been in business for so many years. However, they did not touch their property and asked them to bring their wealth and slaves back to Xixia.

It was not because of the good intentions of the Song Dynasty, but also laying the foundation for the future. After all, after occupying Xixia, it was necessary to govern. If it was done too much, the people of Xixia would resist bravely, and the difficulty of governance would increase, and even the difficulty of confrontation would increase.

The temporary expulsion was to calm down the three states and not to rebel.

The Song Dynasty quickly captured the Hexi Corridor, which was quite shocking. Not to mention that the people in the country cheered and cheered, the Western Regions were also shocked. Even the Karakhan Dynasty sent envoys to Liangzhou to pay homage to Zhang Yue. But this year, the Karakhan Dynasty was in constant turmoil. First, it was defeated by Seljuk in the previous few years. Khan Nasr was forced to ask for peace. In this year, the impartial Khan Nasr, the "sultan of the East and the West" of the "Sultan of the East and the West" died. The Khan was attacked by his younger brother Hizl, but soon Hizl passed away. Around the autumn, Hizl's son Ahmad succeeded the Khan throne. Ahmad, a son of Hizl, succeeded the Khan throne. Ahmad was cruel in character and had serious conflicts with the power of religion. A few years later, the Islamic judge Abu asked Seljuk to send troops to help, occupied the river and exiled Ahmad to Isfahan. Therefore, Zheng Lang was not interested in this once powerful and glorious country.

Zhang Feng did not understand the current situation of the Karakhan and did not receive Zheng Lang's instructions. When he saw the Karakhan sending envoys to see him, he was very enthusiastic. In addition, the Xizhou Uighurs, which had a weaker power, also sent envoys to Liangzhou. Zheng Lang was no longer interested in the tribes west of Chiling, and the Xizhou Uighurs. If it were not for the geographical location of Shazhou, even Zheng Lang was not very interested in Shazhou. It was no other way, it was too far from the Song Dynasty. Therefore, without Zheng Lang's guidance, Zhang Feng could only move freely.

The Karakhan sent envoys for friendship or something else. At this time, the Western Regions still yearned for China. After all, the Song Dynasty was the center of the world's economy and civilization. However, the Xizhou Uighurs were a little worried. Zhang Yue repeatedly stated that the Song Dynasty would not interfere with the Xizhou Uighurs. He even expressed in a vague statement that the border after the Song Dynasty reached the south west to Shazhou and the north to Majunshan in Guazhou. This is the territory where the people of Xixia now have people, and it is impossible to expand.

Not only did the Uighurs in Xizhou and Karakhan send envoys, but also the Caotou Tatars in Haibei west of Chiling, the Achai tribe in the Dafeichuan area, the Tuosima tribe at the source of the Yellow River, and the Huangtou Uighur tribe in the south of the Caotou Tatar also sent envoys. This was a helpless thing.

The Song Dynasty occupied Hehuang and occupied Shazhou in the West. There was no strong and unified force on the high source of Tubo. The Qinghai area almost became the inner sea of ​​the Song Dynasty.

However, Zheng Lang was still not very interested in the place, and his technical strength could not keep up. The imperial court sent officers and soldiers to arrive here, and the transportation cost was too high, mostly snowy mountains and hills. It was difficult to dig the road. If you want to control and manage the complex terrain, a large number of officers and soldiers must be stationed. The water and soil here are now severely damaged, with a vast land and sparse population, and even many places have no one at all, so the gain is not worth the effort. If you station less and cannot control it, it may even be handled improperly, causing unnecessary conflicts.

Therefore, the policy is still the same as before, and continuing to be detained is a real detention. The court only accepts nominal worship and does not participate in any participation in its place.

These areas are equivalent to diplomacy.

Also, there are the Hehuang tribes. The court set up 140 vanguards, after all, the rule was not long, and there would not be more than 40 who really wanted to return to the Song Dynasty. If there were no discounts brought by the vanguards, this number would be even smaller. There were at least fifty or sixty. Some of them were disgusted with the rule of the Song Dynasty, but they did not dare to rebel. There were also twenty or thirty vanguards in this part. There were many tribes in their hands and strong power. In addition, although Fan Chunren comforted the people's hearts, his methods were a little soft, so he was a little unruly. Some time ago, Zhang Shi ordered the convening of soldiers from various tribes, and these twenty tribes were a bit slanderous.

But the Song Dynasty was shocked when they obtained the Hexi Corridor.

They had some power in their hands, but under the division of the Song Dynasty, other tribes might not help them resist the Song Dynasty. Even the tribes in their hands may not have the intention to rebel. Even if they reversed the front, there were other tribes who wanted to replace them later.

The Song Dynasty obtained the Hexi Corridor. The Hexi Corridor was separated by Hehuang, which meant that there was no connection with the Western Xia. Without the response of the Western Xia, they could not speak alone. Even Dong Wen was forced to slap 50,000 labor force by the Song Dynasty. It is also doubtful that Aligu could bring back several people. With themselves, it is difficult to have the strength to fight against the Song Dynasty.

After receiving the news, these men and women were a little nervous.

Sure enough, the revenge came. The Song Dynasty did not deal with them, but forced an ultimatum to the various foreign warriors who were not ordered in winter to send troops to Lanzhou. Not only did they force their troops, but the number also increased by two to three times.

There was definitely not much good intention, but due to the power of the Song Dynasty, they had to agree one by one. Even as they continued to watch, the court immediately issued an edict. In order to appease and win over these powerful foreign lords, the court not only granted marquis, but also granted some officials. Without the wait-and-see sect, the wait-and-see sect sent soldiers as promised, they continued to watch and set up demotion officials. The officials can be big or small, or small, or if it is an unnecessary honor, but the big or big problem is serious. This was unintentional to be a more severe warning. In desperation, they could only send soldiers shyly. These soldiers continued to arrive on the front line, and the counterattack of the Western Xia began. Under Zhang Yu's dispatch, these soldiers were all assigned to the front line.

The sacrifice was still given generous pensions according to the previous measures. However, its nature was the same as in the Western Xia. I was afraid that there would be too many Han people and it would be uncontrollable, so I used Han people as a cannon fodder to reduce the number of Han people in the Western Xia. There were pensions. In the war of defense between several months, less than two of the strong men sent by these tribes could return safely.

Moreover, these foreign dignitaries did not dare to complain. The Song Dynasty wanted to suppress them, but more than just this method, so they could only secretly hope that the Western Xia would defeat the Song Dynasty. Some clever ones sent envoys to Kaifeng, hoping to get forgiven by Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty.

The Three Kingdoms are arguing, and the Hehuang tribes have their own thoughts and plans, and the war on the front line is endless, which makes the people of Western Xia even worse.

Before you know it, spring gradually deepened, and it was time for the Song Dynasty to take action. It will not be continued.
