Chapter 856: Jingguan Wujun, the price of stupidity

Zhang Wugeng said carefully: "Your Majesty, you are stupid, I am afraid you can't describe the battlefield..."

Zhao Zhen looked up at him and said, "I asked you to say that you said that, why did you hesitate? I didn't expect you to be a timid and cautious person, how can you serve in the army like this?"

Zhao Zhen felt a little depressed. Zhang Wupin seemed to be a big soldier, but he was still a little clever. He first used the excuse of being stupid, for fear that he would not blame him. Will anyone in front of him be smart?

Zhang Wen's face changed. His little trick was obviously seen through by the official, and he bowed repeatedly: "The villain knows his mistake, Your Majesty calms down!"

Sancai gave him a blank look. It was so boring that he dared to play with this little trick in front of the official family, but Sancai also knew that he could not blame him. After all, he would inevitably say the wrong thing in front of the official family. Who doesn’t know the horror of being with the king like a tiger?

"Our Western Route Army and Qingtang Alliance Army united forces...... The wall of Gansu Military City was blown up by gunpowder...... The Western Xia reinforcements suddenly arrived but were killed by eight thousand steel-fronted cavalry. At this time, Di Shuai's Beiwei Army came to help, defeated the Western Xia reinforcements, and the army took the Gansu Military City..."

From Zhang Wen's simple words, Zhao Zhen learned that the intensity of the war was full of twists and turns. Fortunately, he ordered Di Qing to assist the Western Route Army. Zhao Zhen, who temporarily ordered Di Qing to assist the Western Route Army because of a little urgent in his heart, had always regretted it, but could not withdraw the military order. The Shandan Army horse farm was too important to him, so that even though he knew that the military order was inappropriate, he did not want to take it back, but now he was in a mistake.

The capture of Gansu Military City also means that the Shandan Army Horse Farm fell into the hands of the Song Dynasty. Only by putting the bags in order to save Zhao Zhen could breathe a sigh of relief and look at Zhang Wen and said, "You are right, how about the Qingtang coalition? Is it appropriate for them to cooperate with the Western Route Army? I heard that it is better for them to fight the wind, but if the war is not good, hesitate and hesitate to move forward?"

Zhang Wen nodded and said, "It is true. When the army exploded the city wall of the Gansu Army, the Qingtang coalition forces rushed towards the Gansu Army City. However, when the reinforcements of the Xixia people arrived, they began to frighten again. The general said that they were condensed by the heart of revenge. The killing of them all became a little distorted. The hatred in their hearts had been leaked. However, most of the Western Regions people were practicing the truth of being injustice in the name of revenge."

Zhao Zhen stood up and said, "What about Gansu Military City? Yang Zhongxian wouldn't let the people of the Western Regions massacre in the city, right?"

But after Zhao Zhen said that, Zhang Wen's face suddenly changed. He looked up and looked carefully at the emperor and said, "Super Yang is the commander of the Song Dynasty after all, and he cannot order the Western Regions people in the Qingtang coalition. Besides, the Qingtang coalition was the first to attack the Gansu military city. Our Western Army blocked the enemy outside..."

"So, the people from the Western Regions massacre the city?" Seeing Zhang Wen hesitate, Zhao Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly, he suddenly raised his voice and drank: "Say!"

How could Zhang Wen, a small personal soldier, resist Zhao Zhen's momentum? He was so scared that he said like a bean: "The Western Regions massacre the city for three days, and men, women, young and old are not spared. I heard that some pregnant people were exposed to their stomachs and eat their sons..."

"Random!" Sancai's voice rose in vain, and his sharp voice was even a little harsh. He stopped Zhang Wen's words in horror. How could such a thing be said in front of the official family? It was simply a shameful listening! Even Sancai felt incredible cruelty when he heard it, let alone the official family?

Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said, "Switch on, let him continue!"

Zhang Wen looked carefully at him by the sudden sound, and saw Zhao Zhen frowning and continued, "The defenders in the city fought to the death and refused to surrender, and none of them were spared. They were killed by the people of the Western Regions, and tens of thousands of people formed the Jingguan Martial Army..."

"Enough!" Zhao Zhen interrupted Zhang Wen with a breath of breath. As expected, he was worried that the people of the Western Regions would be uncontrollable. Unexpectedly, they did not care about the etiquette of the Song Dynasty. Even if they followed the Song Dynasty to conquer the Western Xia, they should ask the commander of the Western Route Army. Obviously, they did all this without authorization, and Yang Zhongxian was responsible for ignoring it.

However, the Jingguan Wushu Army has been there since ancient times, and it cannot be blamed for this crime. Moreover, Yang Zhongxian is the commander of the Song Dynasty and cannot control the Western Regions. From Zhang Wen's words, Zhao Zhen could hear that this was what the Western Regions people did by themselves, and the Qingtang people did not participate. Otherwise, Zhang Wen could be said to be the Qingtang coalition, and there was no need to point out the Western Regions people alone.

China did not do much of this cruel and deterrent thing, and the Jingguan Martial Army was actually a thing, which was to pile the enemy's corpses on both sides of the road, cover the earth and rammed it to form a pyramid-shaped pile of earth.

In ancient text, the original meaning of the word "博" is a tall gate tower, and the view and the 博 are connected, and it also means a gate tower. The 博 and the pit can be borrowed and are often written as pits. Therefore, the pits mentioned in historical books generally refer to the killing of enemy prisoners of war, piled on both sides of the road, covered with soil to form small hills to show military power and deter the enemy, rather than digging a large pit to bury prisoners of war alive.

It can be seen that it was not easy for the Qin army to bury the Zhao army of 400,000 people alive. It would be much easier if they were killed first and then built into a mound of soil. It could also show the military power and shock future generations. In "Zuo Zhuan", it was recorded that at that time that the defeated side had already become a Jingguan. Therefore, the ancients killed thieves and seized corpses. They must build Jingguan, thinking that it was a place where corpses were hidden.

Now the people of the Western Regions build Jingguan and build martial arts army, which may not be nothing to Yang Zhongxian's opinion, but it will deeply stimulate the Dangxiang people and make them even more crazy. The Song Dynasty's attack on Xingqing Prefecture, the capital of the Western Xia Kingdom, will become more difficult.

When the Xixia was about to destroy the country, Jingguan could no longer act as a deterrent to the Dangxiang people, but would turn them into a group of terrible wolves and frantically resist the attack of the Song Dynasty.

In Zhao Zhen's view, increasing the cost and difficulty of the Song Dynasty conquest was stupid and harmful!

Shaking hands into fists, Zhao Zhen angrily smashed at the copper incense burner beside him, dong... The dull sound echoed in the hall, like the roar of a giant dragon, and like the muffled thunder before the rainstorm...

"The people of the Western Regions are not worthy of planning, they are not worthy of planning! It's my fault..."

Zhao Zhen's words made Sancai kneel down and knock, which also made Zhang Wen shudder. He didn't understand why the officials were so angry. Isn't it just that the Western Regions massacre the city and form a Jingguan? Isn't it just that the Song army did this, what does it have to do with the Song Dynasty?

But he forgot that in the eyes of the Western Xia people, these Western Regions people were from the Song Dynasty, they were the minions and hunting dogs of the Song Dynasty. Everything the Western Regions people did was done by the Song Dynasty, but now the Song Dynasty has to pay for the stupidity of the Western Regions people. How could Zhao Zhen not be angry?

"Sancai, notify the Privy Council and order the Western Army to protect the Shandan Army's horse farm not to make progress! He ordered Yang Huaiyu to lead the Southern Army to build a city and patrol the border and defend. He was not allowed to take the initiative to attack unless he had to, and pass on the matter of the Gansu Military Office to Di Qing. He knew what to do..."
