The military information comes from the Military Academy of the Ministry of War. Di Qing personally analyzed the enemy and us clearly on it, and even added religious reasons. This alone can prove his military talent.

Half a month ago, the Black Khanate Army was invading Khotan, and the Ningxia Road defenders had no orders and could only reorganize the troops, but could not rush to help.

Even if there is a prince in the capital, he cannot mobilize the border guards, and he can only send a letter to the southern tour of the saint as quickly as possible.

Khotan was an important chess piece in Zhao Zhen's hand. Their land was an important passage for the Song Dynasty to march northwest and a barrier to resist the eastward advance. Now the Black Khanate launched a war against Teng, and its fundamental purpose was to spread their religion.

Perhaps in the eyes of the Han people, religious spread is not a big deal, but in the eyes of others, it is more important than plundering resources and land.

The Black Khanate's invasion of Tantan was a faithful holy war. The territory of Khotan was already quite narrow. If it was for the development of national strength, there was no need to invade. This is the problem.

Hei Khan's invasion was actually an important step in the eastward advance. If Khotan was annexed, the next step would be to border the Song Dynasty, which was unacceptable to Zhao Zhen.

Therefore, it is necessary to preserve Khotan. The matter is serious. Zhao Zhen immediately gave up the long-planned southern tour. Although he seemed not very satisfied along the way, he was expected to be at least worthy of the four words of peace and stability.

The Shenghua departs from the dock, and the sailing speed at sea is definitely not as fast as land, especially when the road is opened in the Song Dynasty. Now, all prefectures must be connected between the entire Song Dynasty, otherwise it will be an inappropriate rule under the local prefectures.

Wang Yuyan and her party had no complaints along the way and followed the convoy back. However, Zhao Zhen couldn't bear it, but he couldn't slow down the speed, so he asked them to cruise north, collecting experiences from all over the country and enjoying the scenery.

Zhao Zhenmei said his name: What I cannot do, so you can appreciate the great rivers and mountains for me!

The carriage drove towards Hangzhou as fast as possible. There were only Zhao Zhen and Sancai in the carriage. The guards around him changed into military uniforms. The shiny armor reflected golden light in the sun. The high dragon flag was flying in the air, which made the officials of the prefecture who came to the state were trembling and frightened.

The people are like celebrating a festival. Most places in the south think that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. They never have the chance to see the emperor in their entire lives. Now they suddenly see the emperor's throne. Are you not so excited?

Zhao Zhen did not want to pass by the city of Zhoufu, and wasted time, but the carriages and horses had to be maintained. When he left, he was lightly equipped. The dry food consumed as people ate and chewed by horses, so he had to be supplemented in the state.

The transportation capacity of highways is strong, and most people may not have much experience, but in this era, the highway was the highway of the Song Dynasty. On flat roads, horses can run at the fastest speed, without any bumps or avoid obstacles, and their speed is maximized.

The military horses of the Song Dynasty were the product of multiple breeds. Emperor Wu of Han mixed blood horses with Mongolian horses at the Shandan military horse farm to obtain Shandan horses, while Zhao Zhen mixed the bloodline of Arab war horses on this basis.

He obtained a war horse with amazing speed and high endurance, and was mainly equipped with the Beiwei Army and Shangsi Army, so he was called Beiwei Army or Shangsi Horse.

It took only three days for Zhao Zhen's sage to arrive in Hangzhou. During this period, he issued an order directly to send his personal guards to find the nearest gang leader, and sent a letter from Fei Ge to Ningxia Road to order the guard Gao Jingxiang to immediately lead his army to help Yutian.

Zhao Zhen believed that before he reached Shendu City, Gao Jingxiang's Ningxia border army could reach Yutian.

In fact, it was faster to call the army of the Western Regions Protectorate in Yizhou, but Zhao Zhen could not do so. The Song Dynasty in the Western Regions only occupied a corner of Yizhou, and most of the land was seized by the Liao people. If the army of the Protectorate was easily mobilized, the consequence would be that the entire Western Regions were taken down by the Liao people.

The Western Regions Protectorate in Yizhou was like a nail stuck in the Western Regions of the Liao people, as if they were choking on their throats, beware of their guards at all times.

After changing from a carriage to a train, the speed began to increase. Although the sprint speed was not fast, the train's uniform speed exceeded that of a carriage. After traveling day and night, you can quickly reach Tokyo City.

The advantage of this is that the sage has been moving towards the north, and all the memorials and military information gather every day.

Zhao Zhen was very satisfied with Zhao Xu's reign this time, but he was not sensitive enough in the war. He lost all the land in the Western Regions and the Liao people. The importance of Khotan to the Song Dynasty was self-evident. At this time, Khotan must be preserved no matter what.

In a hurry, he had the right to temporarily mobilize troops and could mobilize border troops to attack and rescue Yutian. As long as he was not using troops to the inside, no one would say anything, but he did not do so.

The prince was in charge of the state to deal with emergencies and exercise the emperor's rights when the emperor went on a patrol, was seriously ill, or went on a war. Since Zhao Zhen authorized him to supervise the state, it meant that he had to bear the responsibility for the Song Dynasty when he was absent.

The incident of Khotan made Zhao Zhen a little disappointed, but it was not a big deal. After all, this was his son's respect for me, which also showed that Zhao Xu was cautious in his actions.

The trees outside the train window kept backing and speeding past. If you stare at the trees, you would feel a very wonderful feeling. Sancai admired the official family for staring at these trees without any dizziness.

The official family is Chenliu in front of him. After passing Chenliu, he will arrive in Tokyo Bianliang City.

Zhao Zhen still stared out the window without saying a word, and Sancai stood by silently. Zhao Zhen suddenly said: The Black Khan Kingdom, under the banner of religion, uses Hui and Immediately to attack Hei Khan. What excuse should I use to send troops to attack Hei Khan?

Sancai didn't know if the official family was talking to him, and whispered: Islam is so powerful that it can still control the army and the country?

Zhao Zhen smiled and said: Black Khanate is

Scared! That's not the chaos in the world?

Zhao Zhen raised his eyebrows and shook his head helplessly: From the kings to the people of the Black Khanate, everyone believes in the Islamic world. Do you think there is a difference?

Sancai thought about it: Then what was they like before?

original?

Zhao Zhen thought about it and tried hard to recall the history of the Black Khan. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have been taken into a ditch. The Black Khan Dynasty was not a country at the beginning, and was similar to nomadic Khanate such as the Turkic Khanate. They were originally shamans and Zoroastrians, and some Manichaeists and Buddhists.

Since Black Khan can attack Khotan with religious issues, the Song Dynasty can also use the same thing to fight back, and it is easy to find excuses.

Zhao Zhen suddenly stood up, his speed was so fast that Sancai staggered and almost fell down. He looked surprised at the tea that the official family brought over: Be careful
