Dress yourself.
They came out of the main hall.
The air was still damp.
But the sky was cloudless.
Zhao Yuan performed a round of boxing.
The sun had just risen in the east.
Seeing the sunrise,
Zhao Yuan suddenly became interested.
He ordered one of the guards to fetch a ladder.
Climb to the roof of the main hall,
I watched the sunrise.
Sitting on the roof of the tallest building in the city,
You can look up and watch the sunrise.
Looking down, you can overlook the entire city.
With such a magnificent landscape at my feet, I feel a surge of pride.
A gentle breeze blew, and her clothes fluttered.
It has a certain carefree air about it, as if it's about to ride the wind and fly away.
Zhao Yuan stood on the rooftop for a while.
Until the guards below began to change shifts,
Then he jumped off the roof.
The head of the personal guards on duty today is none other than Xue Yong, the Sick Tiger.
I just inspected all the guard posts.
Seeing the King of Liang come down,
He then stepped forward to receive orders.
Zhao Yuan said, "Have the palace guards and Wu Song's troops prepare our luggage."
"We will set off for our return journey tomorrow."
"Send someone to invite Generals Zhong Shidao, Mu Hong, and Lu Zhishen."
"Yes!"
Xue Yong heard this and decided to withdraw his troops.
He also had a joyful expression on his face.
People say that one should return home in glory.
They destroyed the Western Xia.
Establish outstanding achievements,
Naturally, he also wanted to go back to China and boast about it.
...
After Zhao Yuan favored Po Chaoyu'er,
He then rewarded Po Chaoyu'er's parents with some money and valuables.
Although the Pocha tribe did not directly receive any benefits,
However, they also knew that someone was in front of King Liang.
From now on, local officials will have to give them some face.
Therefore, I am not disappointed.
They also sent ten maids to Po Chaoyu'er.
They were all girls around fifteen or sixteen years old.
Although she cannot compare to the beauty of Yu'er
But they were all pretty and charming.
At this time, Han Chinese goods were very attractive to people from various tribes.
Even the Western Xia royal palace was filled with Han Chinese items.
Therefore, many tribes did not have much resistance to submitting to Daliang.
Moreover, the various Tang Dynasty tribes...
They then developed a habit of relying on powerful nations.
In their view, survival is more important than anything else.
When Zhao Yuan arrived at the main hall,
Zhong Shidao, Mu Hong, and Lu Zhishen have all arrived.
Yang Zhi was stationed in Lingzhou.
Zhang Qing was stationed in Dingzhou.
They guard the Yinchuan Plain, one in the south and one in the north.
Wu Song's troops, on the other hand, planned to return to their camp with Zhao Yuan.
It can also be considered as escorting the King of Liang.
"I'm leaving for home tomorrow,"
"The affairs of Western Xia are now entrusted to you."
Zhong Shidao, Mu Hong, and Lu Zhishen hurriedly said,
"Rest assured, King Liang, we will certainly live up to our mission."
Zhao Yuan nodded and said, "The Western Xia has just been destroyed."
"It's hard to guarantee that there aren't dissents in different departments,"
"Therefore, I will leave you here to guard the area."
"I have prepared to establish Ningxia Circuit, which will govern the former Xishou Baotai Military Command, Jingsai Military Command, Jianing Military Command, Xiangyou Military Command, Left Wing Shenyong Military Command, Right Wing Chaoshun Military Command, and Baima Qiangzhen Military Command,"
"Zhuoluo and the military command south of the west were assigned to Qinghai Road."
"I recommended Zhong Gong as the first commander-in-chief of Ningxia Road."
The Zhong family's goal, pursued for generations, was to destroy the Western Xia dynasty.
Zhong Shidao originally thought he had no hope of achieving this goal in his lifetime.
We can only let the next generation continue to strive.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to be buried in the wood,
Yet he was able to lead troops to destroy the Western Xia.
Although it relied more on the power and influence of the Western Xia.
However, without the Zhong family army's strenuous resistance against Li Qianshun and Chage's two armies,
It's impossible for the Great Liang to destroy the Western Xia so quickly.
Therefore, Master Zhong was always very gratified.
However, he had no other thoughts.
Upon hearing Zhao Yuan's recommendation for him to be the first General of Ningxia, he hurriedly said,
"I am seventy years old this year,"
"Although he is still in good health,"
"But he has reached the age of retirement in the court."
"I don't know when I'll meet my ancestors,"
"How can I shoulder such a heavy responsibility?"
"Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, Mu Hong, and Dong Ping are all promising young men,"
"A veteran of many battles, he is qualified to be the General of Ningxia."
Chapter 1956 One Family, Two Generals
Lu Zhishen touched his bald head and laughed.
"How could I possibly compare to General Zhong?"
"General Zhong is in good health,"
"I could live for decades more without any problem,"
"How can one not be appointed General of Ningxia Road?"
Zhao Yuan smiled and said, "That's right."
"Moreover, the Western Xia dynasty had just been destroyed,"
"Although the various tribes have submitted to our dynasty,"
"But there are still many things to deal with."
"Although they are brave,"
"But they are unfamiliar with the various Tangut tribes,"
"And Zhong Gong spent decades in the Northwest,"
"He knew all the Tangut tribes inside and out."
"You will be the first commander-in-chief,"
"This can reduce a lot of unnecessary disputes."
Zhong Shidao declined, saying, "King Liang has already recommended my younger brother, Zhong Shizhong, to be the General of Shaanxi."
"I'll become the General of Ningxia again,"
"This might set a bad precedent,"
"In future generations, some people will inevitably seize power."
"The others will be generals,"
"I can also offer suggestions."
Zhao Yuan smiled and said, "It's alright."
"The Zhong family has rendered great service to our dynasty,"
"Don't mention two generals,"
"Even three or four would be appropriate."
Which dynasty throughout history didn't have to be wary of military generals?
Especially during the Song Dynasty, military generals were considered a major threat.
Although the Zhong family generals achieved many merits,
But at most, there were only two military commissioners at the same time.
Its jurisdiction is far less than that of Daliang.
Daliang Shaanxi was formed by merging Yongxing Army, Fuyan Road, and Jingyuan Road.
It can be said that Zhong Shizhong served as the General of Shaanxi.
