Xi Xing actually has a feeling in his heart. If Zhang Hong comes, wouldn't he share his credit?

He must not let others share this rare opportunity. Zhang Hong's meritorious service is already great enough.

He would rather die of exhaustion than share his political achievements with Zhang Hong.

Fortunately, he brought Lu Ludao, Ma Renmin, Deng Bin, Gao Gao and other literati over, and he could barely cope with it.

Even so, he felt exhausted.

He really didn't expect that when you really become the head of a county, there will be so many things.

The appointment and arrangement of county and township officials, and the welfare arrangements and regulations for the people.

Especially for Xixian County, the Hu people left a lot of legacy, such as heavy taxes, inhumane punishments and regulations, the selection and cleaning up of Hu officials, etc.

What's more, Xi County still has the problem of immigration export and acceptance.

The export means the export of 5,000 immigrants to Jintang County. This is to make room for immigrants from the Central Plains.

This must be completed, otherwise Central Plains Immigration cannot be arranged.

After making arrangements for the star wash, I just closed my eyes and found that I had forgotten a fatal question.

Even though Xixian County is far away from Sichuan, it can be said that it is an isolated city.

Isn't it? It is too far away from Sichuan and basically thousands of miles away from Jintang County.

Zhao Ping said that fighting a war is about fighting the economy, but this isolated city is under the nose of the barbarians.

This place is only more than a hundred miles away from Xingyuan Mansion, and the barbarians can attack at any time.

On the contrary, it would take half a month for the Song Dynasty to support this place.

There is no way, the road to Shu is difficult, it is difficult to reach the sky.

Thinking of Xixian, he couldn't help but think of the fate of Yongle City.

When the conflict between the Song Dynasty and Xixia was at its most intense, the Song Dynasty also built a city in the hinterland of Xixia called Yongle City.

Due to the isolation outside the country and lack of backup, under the continuous fierce attack of 300,000 Xixia troops day and night, the entire city was finally breached, and 20% of the soldiers and civilians were almost wiped out.

This problem also exists in Xi County now, and it is faced with the ferocious barbarians from Xixia.

You know, the ferocious Xixia people were massacred by barbarians!

Thinking of this, Xi Xing couldn't fall asleep, so he had to use the charcoal pen invented by Zhao Ping to write a letter to Zhao Ping before he could sleep.

Zhao Ping has actually considered various difficulties.

Regarding the government, Zhao Ping happened to push Wang Wenxiu and Zhang Ding up.

They are Zhao Ping's future concubine, Wang Jiuniang's father, Wang Wenxiuti, and uncle Ling'er, both of whom have the same Jinshi qualifications.

One of them will be the county magistrate, and the other will be the county magistrate. The two of them can be regarded as relatives because of their relationship with Zhao Ping.

However, this was Zhao Ping's intention. He was only recommending people, and the details were subject to the court's arrangements.

However, although this process has to be followed and must be subject to court appointment, it is basically the same.

The government has not yet been formally established. Xi Xing was originally a scholar and had served as the acting chief registrar of Jintang County, so he became the temporary chief registrar of Xi County.

Tap, tap, the crisp sound of horse hooves sounded on the Shu Road. This was Zhao Feiyang bringing his son-in-law Wu Kai to Xi County.

He was accompanied by some other shopkeepers, including Gu Yixuan, the shopkeeper of the Jintang County Teahouse in Zhaojiazhuang, brothers Wang Qibao and Wang Qihu, the shopkeeper of another mysterious workshop in Zhaojiazhuang, Yao Yi, the shopkeeper of the Liuli Workshop, and Shen Wei, the shopkeeper of the Xiantan Xianlu Workshop.

They were arranged by Zhao Ping to fully prepare for the defense of Xi County.

Zhao Feiyang is now following Zhao Ping closely, wherever he goes.

However, the risk in Xi County was too great. When Zhao Ping sent Gu Yixuan and Wang Qibao, he repeatedly emphasized that the risk in Xi County was high. No one was sure when Xi County would be captured by the Hu people.

As a businessman, Zhao Feiyang also has his own plans.

First, he believed in Zhao Ping. Since Zhao Ping was able to arrange for his workshop manager to be out, although there were risks, they were already under control.

Secondly, he understands better that the higher the risk, the higher the return. Jintang County is the best example.

Third, he is a grateful person. Zhao Ping gave him the status of a casual official, and he must repay.

Fourthly, he also wanted to expand his workshop. Although Zhao Ping also owned the workshop, he also wanted to have a sense of achievement.

Zhao Ping arranged for them to come to Xi County, not only to deliver political achievements to Xi Xing, but also to plan for the future of Xi County.

Xixian County is the first stop for me to enter Xingyuan Mansion. I must firmly grasp it in my hands and make it absolutely foolproof.

Dingjun Mountain must be made good use of, and Xi County must also make good use of it.

At the same time, the more than 8,000 Central Plains people must be arranged together, so Zhao Ping decided to take a chance.

Xixian County is too far away from Sichuan. It has to cross the cliff plank road and transportation is extremely difficult. The price of meat can only be described as tofu.

If Xi County completely relies on Jintang County chicken buses for transportation to Xi County, no matter how strong Zhaojiazhuang is, it will be brought down by Xi County.

It only takes two hours for the Hu people to attack here, but it will take at least half a month for Zhao Ping's belongings to be transported here from Jintang County.

As soon as they arrived in Xi County, they were invited to the Yamen by Xi Xing for discussion.

Seeing them arriving, Xi Xing and Zhang Hong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

What Xi Xing considered, Zhang Hong naturally also considered.

Zhao Ping plans to plant tea trees in Dingjun Mountain to run a teahouse and create a drunken spring breeze in Dingjun Mountain.

You know, Zui Chunfeng can make a lot of money, and only Zhao Ping's Zhaojiazhuang masters this production method.

Moreover, Zui Chunfeng is the standard configuration of a powerful family, otherwise it would not be called a powerful family.

Zhao Ping asked Yao Yi and Zhao Long to come here and set up a glaze workshop at the same time.

Liuli is even more expensive than Zui Chunfeng. Zui Chunfeng has gradually moved from upper-class families to middle-class families, and Liuli is the equipment of noble families.

Naturally, Wang Qibao and Zhao Feiyang came here to handle weapons workshops such as Hu-killing Dao and Hongtian Lei, completely reducing their logistical dependence on Jintang County.

Wang Qihu was responsible for handling the immortal cement and building all the passes between Xingyuan Prefecture and Xixian County.

After all, I heard that Xingyuan Prefecture had stationed 500,000 troops. This was to prepare for the attack on Sichuan.

Zhao Ping had no choice but to do this in the face of powerful enemies sweeping across Liuhe.

He himself was not strong enough to compete with the Hu people, let alone the restraints of the court officials.

Xingyuan Mansion, the city walls here are more than three feet high, and they are all made of hard stone.

At the beginning, Yu Jie tried his best and failed to capture Xingyuan Mansion, which shows that the ancient city of Jiagulong was well built.

But this time, no matter how tight the city was, it also solved the depression and sorrow of the people inside.

The provincial governor Jiagu Longgu and the marshal Tuxue drank up the tea, brewed it, drank it dry again, and now the tea was almost boiled water.

Yang Xianshu knelt on the ground, not daring to express his anger.

Fortunately, Tuxue only received twenty lashes. Although it was burning and painful, it was just a skin injury.

As long as it is not an internal injury, a skin injury is just a glorious scar for a general.

Scars are the difference between military commanders and literati. If you don't have scars, it means you have never been on the battlefield.

Jiagu Longgu looked at Yang Xianshu and said to Tuxue: "It's good that General Yang can come back. You'd better get up, I just have something to ask him."

Jiagu Longgu is a provincial governor, and even Tuxue must obey his control.

The bad breath in Tuxue's heart came out, and she nodded in agreement.

Yang Xianshu glanced at Jiagu Longgu gratefully, and his legs were numb from kneeling.

Jiagu Longgu looked at the back of his hand, which was bruised and bleeding, frowned and asked, "What kind of sharp weapon was used this time to cause such a disastrous defeat for tens of thousands of our Mongolian cavalry?"

Yang Xianshu fell into deep thought and said for a while: "Originally, I had the upper hand in the fight with their so-called thunder cavalry, but when their weapons came out, my thousand-man team actually lost half of its men in just one cup of tea. Unfortunately, this is me Precious bow rider."

At this point, he could no longer hold back the painful tears.

Tuxue was furious. She originally heard that she wanted to whip him again, but thinking that Jiagu Longgu had something to ask him, she had to hold back her impulse and squeezed the whip tightly in her hand.

Tuxue couldn't help but feel disgusted, how could such a grown man cry like a woman.

Little did he know that Yang Xianshu was crying not for the loss of hundreds of soldiers and horses, but for the loss of tens of thousands of cavalry.

He had just thought that half of the Hu cavalry had escaped, but he did not expect that only a few hundred cavalrymen would be the lucky ones.

This Zhao Ping was so powerful that he almost wiped out tens of thousands of their proud cavalry in just one day.

If Zhao Ping succeeded in a sneak attack last time, this time, both sides fought in an upright manner.

Moreover, their Hu cavalry also had advantages in location, numbers and mobility. Zhao Ping's security regiment was small and had to divide its troops to protect the people of the Central Plains.

Now that he has failed, is Zhao Ping really invincible?

He cried because the barbarians were at a disadvantage, and because his own future was bleak.

Jiagu Longgu was also a little dissatisfied, but thinking about the heavy losses suffered by the Hu people, it made sense for Yang Xianshu to be sad.

After Yang Xianshu vented his anger, he felt a little embarrassed and wiped his tears, then said, "They used a weapon called a cyclone cannon. Not only did that weapon throw fast, but it also extended the distance by more than half."

Jiagu Longgu suddenly stood up on the coffee table and blurted out: "Tornado Cannon, isn't that a weapon unique to Xixia?"

At this point, he looked at the northwest direction of Xixia, pondered for a while and then said: "No, this is Xixia's top secret, how could it fall into Zhao Ping's hands again?"

Tuxue also knew about Xixia's cyclone cannon, but the cyclone cannon fired only stones, not thunder.

The thunder must be ignited, and the burning time of the fuse must also be calculated.

Otherwise, the thunder may not explode, and it may also injure the person using the cyclone cannon.

Since firing a thunderbolt is obviously different from a stone, how did Zhao Ping do it?

The two of them didn't know much about weapons, so they had to ask the soldiers to call for the expenses.

The cost has now become the national treasure of the entire Mongol Khanate, because only by spending can the Thunder of Heaven be developed.

Although this is a pirated version, and although it is not as powerful as Zhao Ping, after all, it is already a great improvement compared to the original one.

Jiagu Longgu and Tuxue really wanted to see whether the effect of the cyclone cannon was as powerful as Yang Xianshu said, or whether Yang Xianshu lied to find a reason for his failure.
