- The envoys of the state turned over and followed Zhao Jing, and the Qi Road in Longxi reached the deserted city.
There are horses and young horses herding in felt fur, and there are two or three fan songs at dusk.
To the west of Longshan is Longyou, also called Longxi.
Longyou in the narrow sense is from Longshan to the Yellow River and Qinghai Lake; while Longyou in the broad sense is from Longshan to the place where the Tang army can reach.
When the Longyou Road was the largest in the Tang Dynasty, it has been in Iran until now.
Longyou in this era is not the economically backward Gansu in later generations, but a fertile land for resorts, no less than Guanzhong, Bashu, and Huainan.
It was recorded during the Tianbao period that "from Anyuan Gate to the west, the Tang Dynasty is twelve thousand miles away. The villages and villages are facing each other, and the fields are covered with mulberry trees. There are no rich people in the world like Longyou."
The land of Longyou is connected to the Western Regions in the west and Guanzhong in the east. It is the hub of world transportation and the only place the Silk Road must pass through. Except for the simple grain industry, which is not very developed here, cash crops and commerce are among the best in the world, somewhat similar to Fujian and Zhejiang in later generations.
Of course, people in Longxi are prime ministers, businessmen and bandits, but not many people know how to be farmers.
It was only after Xue Ju occupied Longyou that he had the confidence to challenge Li Yuan.
Huang Mingliao, who had pacified Tuyuhun, had been stationing troops in Wuwei County and was eyeing Xue Ju to the east. It's just that Xue Ju was too strong, and the Sui Dynasty hoped to divert the disaster eastward and lead Xue Ju to a decisive battle with Li Tang, so Huang Mingliao stayed in Hexi and did not move.
After pacifying Tuyuhun, Huang Mingliao ordered people to build a city at the foot of Tulou Mountain.
牺如 99bxwx.com 牺如。This was the former Western Capital City, but it was later abandoned after being occupied by Tuyuhun . This place is the core of the Huangzhong area with the richest aquatic plants. The Changgu River, Huang River, and Niuxin River meet here. It has convenient transportation and a special location. It leads directly to Hexi via Changning Valley to the north, to Jincheng via Huangshui River to the east, and to the hinterland of the West Sea via Shibao to the south. It is a battleground for military strategists.
Huang Mingli built a new city here as the new center of the Xihai Protectorate.
In the land of the West Sea, Yide City is too far to the west, Xiping County governs Huangshui County and is too far to the east. The newly built city is located in the center, which is most suitable.
After the construction of the new city was completed, Huang Mingyuan specially named it Xining, which means "peace in the west".
In May of the twelfth year of Daye, Huang Mingyuan ordered the construction of the Shenwu Guard, with Huang Mingliao as the general manager, and Yu Chigong and Duan Lun as deputy general managers.
The newly built Shenwu Guard became the first and only field army of the Sui Dynasty in Hexi.
This force is made up of the 7,000 elite soldiers brought by Huang Minglio from the Western Regions, and also transferred to 4,000 Hexi soldiers from Gaiyuan, 2,000 original cavalry from Chen Ju, 2,000 Hexi bandit suppressing troops from Yuchi Gong, and the Western Turks. There were two thousand people, totaling more than seventeen thousand people.
The 2,000 men and horses that Huang Mingliao recruited from Que Dushe were directly handed over to Shi Danai's command, and they would not be returned to Que Dushe in the future.
¡°Perhaps it won¡¯t take many years for these more than 10,000 Turkic tribes to be fully integrated into the Han family.
Of course, in addition to the 17,000 Shenwu Guards, Huang Mingliao also had 3,000 Hunbu cavalry under Huang Mingliao, two thousand Tongluo cavalry under Tongluo Duoer, and more than 4,000 Tuyuhun surrender troops.
The Hun tribe has always been respectful and respectful. It was a model for the Sui Dynasty to appease the surrounding ethnic groups, and its status is quite special. Moreover, as its army is a collection of soldiers and horses, it is not easy to annex it for a while.
As for the two thousand Tongluo cavalrymen in Tongluo Duoer, Huang Mingliao did not dare to annex them. No matter how powerful he was, he would not dare to turn the Tongluo army into a regular army.
As for the more than 4,000 Tuyuhun surrendered troops, they are consumables and are not yet qualified to be incorporated into the Shenwu Guard.
On May 10th, at the same time that Xue Ju launched an attack on Li Tang's Yuanzhou. Huang Mingliao led 26,000 troops and marched eastward along the Yellow River from Huining County to attack Li Tang's Lingzhou.
Although Xue Ju's Jincheng County was close at hand, Huang Mingliao really couldn't attack in order to prevent it from affecting the Sui army's decisive battle.
Lingzhou is Lingwu County, a state in the northwest of Li Tanggu.
Lingzhou has always been the private territory of the Guanlong family. Yang Guang has been in power for so many years, but he has not been able to take it away from Guanlong. As soon as Li Yuan rebelled, Lingzhou immediately chose to surrender to Li Tang.
However, the situation developed too quickly later. Li Tang was blocked by the Sui army and the Western Qin from all sides, and Lingzhou was left with only Yuanzhou Road connected with Guanzhong, becoming an isolated state.
The governor of Lingzhou is Liang Li, who comes from the Liang family in Anping. He has an army of more than 20,000 people and is very powerful.
Liang Li was quite proud of the fact that the small court in Chang'an was originally isolated and focused on the enemy forces on all sides and was unable to interfere in Lingzhou's political affairs.
In Lingzhou, he is the local emperor.
But who knew that the style of painting suddenly changed, and Xue Ju actually defeated Yuanzhou, which he had been unable to defeat several times before, in one fell swoop, completely cutting off the connection between Lingzhou and Chang'an, which made Liang Li uncomfortable.
It is true that Liang Li wanted to be a local emperor, but he did not want to be an emperor. The northwest border areas are sparsely populated, and the garrison has always needed food support from the central government. If the communication line between Lingzhou and Chang'an is cut off, supplies will not be transported at all.
So Liang Li immediately led his troops to support Yuanzhou in an attempt to reopen the communication line from Lingzhou to Chang'an.
It¡¯s a pity that Xue Ju was prepared for it.
Xue Ju¡¯s general Chang Zhongxing led the cavalry to ambush Liang Li in Xiaoguanli, severely defeated his troops, and beheaded more than 2,000 people. Liang Li fled back to Lingzhou in embarrassment.
This battle made Liang Li panicked and he no longer dared to go south rashly.
Afterwards, Xue Ju sent envoys to summon him to surrender. Although Liang Li refused, he already had other thoughts. Although everyone is from the Guanlong family, it is most appropriate to join Li Yuan, but if Li Yuan fails, no one will be buried with him.
ãá minus 7 5z w.com ãá. Liang Li hesitated and before he made a decision, Huang Mingliao had already led his army to kill him.
From Huining, follow the Yellow River all the way east, and soon arrive at Xia Shi (now Qingtong Gorge on the bank of the Yellow River in the southwest of Qingtongxia City, Ningxia).
Although the south of Lingzhou is large, there are no cities. It is all wasteland, mostly occupied by Qiang and Hu. The gorge stone located in Feng'an County (now southwest of Qingtongxia City, Ningxia) is the real southern gate of Lingzhou.
"Xia Shi is the place where mountains and rivers gather, and it is the key to Xionglingwu." Liang Li also knew the importance of this place and deployed heavy troops here. He ordered his brother Liang Xuanli to lead 5,000 troops to garrison here.
Liang Xuanli was the son of Liang Bi, the former Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice. He once served as General Hu Benlang. Later, he defected to Liang Li and was entrusted with an important task. He was the first general in Lingzhou.
Liang Xuanli defended the gorge stone tightly, and the Sui army could not pass.
Mi He Mi. So Huang Mingliao ordered Chen Ju to lead the cavalry troops to attack from the west of the Yellow River, detouring around the Helan Mountains. Huang Mingliao commanded the main force and turned eastward.
Huang Mingliao knew very well that the troops in his hands were insufficient, and most of them were cavalry. Attacking the city blindly would not only be protracted, but it would also be unwise to attack with short attacks and with long attacks.
Therefore, Huang Mingliao planned to use the openness of the entire Lingzhou grassland to the east to conduct a roundabout mobile war.
In order to easily suppress Lingzhou, Huang Mingliao ordered Bai Fuyuan and Liang Luoren in Honghua County to attack westward. The two of them have been stationed in Honghua County for such a long time, so it's time to move
