Chapter 15 Depressed Qi (3)(1/2)
Chapter 15: The depression is like a tide (3)
Carriages and horses are on the way, and Yanjing City is already in sight.
Wang Binggui had already walked in front of the generals who came here to escort the two envoys. When he followed Tong Guan, Yanjing City still looked extremely dilapidated. Half of the city was destroyed by a fire. Several towering arrow towers on the city gates had been completely burned and collapsed. Inside and outside the city gates, there were corpses everywhere, and the Song and Liao armies were all in the moat.
In his mind, it was only more than a month or two months in less than a month. What could a group of martial officials live in this dilapidated place? It would be good not to waste it even worse. He was an old corps. He was a veteran, and he knew how destructive he was. Before the Northern Expedition that day, the Western Army was in Hejian, and even the territory of Hebei, the Song Dynasty, made trouble for these eight masters. He was a person around Tong Guan, and there were local officials crying and complaining every day.
Tens of thousands of troops are here, and only the basic supply comes from behind. The court has no explanation for the Yanyun war, and the rewards have not been brought down. Yanjing City is the heart of the Liao people in Nanjing, and there are hundreds of thousands of Yan people living in this place, and now no one is in charge. Didn’t these military generals start to reward themselves early? As expected, it would be impossible to stop if they were ruined.
In fact, the court also planned to give up the land of the Later Yan War. The 6,300 chunks of military expenditure that Wang Fu gathered to attack Liao have been used completely. Recently, the three departments have been thinking about dealing with the daily supply, and they have been complaining about it. Such a wonderful achievement is an astonishing number. If these generals abandon the land of the Later Yan War, these soldiers will get a lot of fullness, and their appetite for rewards may be much smaller in the future.
It is precisely because of these reasons that both Wang Bing and Geng Nanzhong and Wen Xuzhong came all the way, and they were ready to see a desolate and dilapidated Yan land, which was ruined into a miserable situation. Although Geng Nanzhong spoke up as a gentleman's principle of benevolence and loving things, he would never say a word on this. As long as he could conquer these Qiu Ba and gain the upper hand in the struggle for the dynasty, what is this people who ruled the former Liao for more than a hundred years?
But along the way, it was far beyond their expectations. There were very few Song troops in the road, but they only maintained normal military information transmission and informed the way. Although Yan land was depressed and destroyed after the war, refugees returned home, and there were basically no troubles from the Song army. There were smoke from cooking in the buckets and forts everywhere. Although the fields were severely abandoned and the water conservancy was even more damaged, the people in rags were already trying their best to prepare for spring plowing.
Originally, Wang Bing and Geng Nan Zhong Yu and Wen Xuzhong thought that all Youyan Jinghua were in Yanjing. These eighth masters disliked the lack of oil and water in other places, so they naturally gathered in Yanjing City to grow. The order in other places was relatively stable, and what they received was that Yanjing City should have been hell on earth!
It was only when they arrived in person that they were shocked. Yanjing City was not only not a hell on earth, but also a look of purging! It seemed like a prefecture and county in the Song Dynasty, where the first-class capable ministers ruled by the states and counties!
Most of the Song army indeed gathered here, but the dense camps outside the city showed that the Song army did not mix and mess around in the city, but were content with the camps. The camps were tightly built and cleaned up around them. There were also straw huts for temporary markets between the camps. Although these markets were closed due to the arrival of angels, they were empty. It also showed that tens of thousands of Song army members were very lightly harassed the people of Yanjing. The soldiers had copper at the waist, and the people of Yanjing dared to do business with them, and exchanged their only remaining possessions after the war for some money.
The city wall of Yanjing has been repaired as much as possible. There are scaffoldings and neatly stacked piles of materials everywhere on the city and under the city. The moat is also dredging, and the fresh soil that has been turned up is piled up on the inner bank wall, which is equivalent to adding another earthen fortification. The wall is also empty, and welcoming the arrival of the angels, but we can also imagine that many people in Yan have been organized on weekdays to use labor for relief. Yanjing is originally a key place to the throat. This place
The complete repair of the Xiongcheng is to protect the vassal states! Recruiting the people's strength to work in an orderly manner is a matter that requires the ability of administrative organization. Once it is about to move, it is a major work, and troubles are indispensable. Carrying this matter in a peaceful place is a troublesome thing that makes local officials scratch their heads. However, these Qiu Bas actually mobilized the people's comforting organizations inside and outside Yanjing City in just over a month!
Everything is not just here. Near Yanjing City, the fields have been obviously cleaned up. In addition to weeds, some small irrigation water conservancy have been repaired. The straw sheds of the refugees who were taken over were neatly standing in the vast fields around. These eighth Grandpa actually distributed all the landless wastelands and brought refugees to shelter them. The upcoming spring plowing was prepared in a similar manner!
Wang Bing was certainly stunned, even the two angels in the car were moved, looking at each other in the car with a serious expression.
The literati and literati looked down on military officials, and only destroyed them without construction. Most of them were vulgar and unliterate. Therefore, they came to collect military power with righteousness, and they could not cure them immediately. They also rely on us civil officials to host refugees, organize farming and markets, collect grain and taxes to support these eighth princes. In this way, isn’t it natural to control martial arts with civil servants?
However, they did not expect that without the intervention of civil officials, these military men would have managed Youyan’s new and broken land into this way! Even Yuwen Xuzhong, who has always been conceited, did not have such ability. In their eyes, they saw this scene in Yandi, without any thought of comforting the people of Yandi, but their thoughts were heavy.
These martial officials groups gathered in Yan land must be suppressed! Especially Xiao Yan. According to the news that in the past or two, in the Youyan land, Xiao Yan was in charge of everything. To be honest, the military people were not afraid of their domineeringness, they were not afraid of their domineeringness, they could fight, and they would have the ability to have the ability to bring a single army to the enemy. They were afraid of the martial officials intervening in the place, and they also had the ability to intervene in the place! Xiao Yan, Wu Kepo, Wenzu, and the county, showed his skills and made Tong Guan leave in a mess, but he didn't know why such a person suddenly appeared.
You can't keep him!
Later, Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong had already walked outside the car and stood in the car and looked around. Both of them looked worried.
The army was moving forward with flags flying. Seven or eight miles away from Yanjing City, suddenly heard the horns whistling. Then the sound of golden drums sounded. With the sound of loud blowing, Yanjing City opened the gates of the envoys. The surrounding camps also opened the camp gates, and the neatly-dressed generals of the army were all dressed in clean clothes and rows of fish came out. Then there were full of ceremonial guards to welcome the envoys, lined up under the city, and the sound of silk, bamboo, gold drums floated in a mixed manner.
Yang. Then there were teams of Song soldiers, soldiers wearing armor, envoys wearing flowers, and rows of formations were arranged in rows. The generals led the troops passed down, and a neat sound was heard. Outside the city of Yanjing, all the Song troops at the gates of the camps had already knelt down on one knee. The generals who were welcomed with the envoys took a few steps forward and all dismounted and saluted. The shouting suddenly sounded: "Welcome the angels to inspect on behalf of the heavens. I am so frightened!"
Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong looked at each other and finally came. The opportunity to fight Xiao Yan head-on. But I don’t know what method he had to fight against the will of Bianliang. Could he, the surrendered minister in the south, dare to struggle to resist?
In a blink of an eye, the carriages and horses had already arrived outside the gate of Yanjing. The three thousand soldiers who were escorting the envoys stopped. The flag-plaque officials led the mounts. Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong abandoned the carriage and got on the horse. Wang Bing, one of them, was wearing distinctive armor, and rode his horse to protect him from the side and came straight to the generals who were politely greeting him.
Among the group of generals with bright armor, standing in front of their heads, they were thin and white beards floating. They were the most respected generals of Yanjing. He had no intention of holding on to his identity and bent down respectfully. At such an old age, it was really not easy to maintain this posture for such a long time. Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong rode forward and turned over and dismounted a few steps away from the Zhongshidao. This time, most of their attitude towards the general Western Army was to win over. Now both of them are very polite, helping Zhongshidao up from the left and right.
Geng Nanzhong is a regular envoy and has a bit of self-control. He is the prince's teacher. He has always lived in seclusion and is not very familiar with these generals. He just smiled and didn't speak. Yuwen Xuzhong was an active figure in Bianliang that day and was interested in military affairs. He ran to Wu Min, deputy envoy of Privy Councilor, and had a few encounters with Lao Zong. He smiled and said, "Old Zong, my husband, I am here to be honest. You are a white-haired general. It's enough to do it. You are still bent over and bent on your back like this, but I am a two-school student who is waiting for you!"
Lao Zong was supported by the two of them, looking very nervous and terrified: "How dare you? I waited for Yan Yun to be restored by a hundred battles, but no one paid attention to him for three or two months. I was afraid that the court would have forgotten us, the people who served the death. Now that the two husbands are here, just like they are clearing the clouds and seeing the sun, they are full of gratitude to the court's kindness. How dare you not be more serious about this etiquette?"
The old generation said something, and both envoys were stiff. The heavy general of the Western Army could not hide the depression in his words. This beginning was not a good sign. This time he came north was indeed a bit tricky job... If it weren't for this tricky, how could the two factions fight each other and let their Qingliu Party take such a cheap price?
Although the words were a bit harsh, Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong didn't take them much in their hearts. The old generation was qualified enough to complain, but they were just complaining. Tens of thousands of troops were alone in a new place. Do they still dare to fight against the Bianliang Dynasty of the Song Dynasty? In more than a hundred years, when civil officials suppressed military officials, these Qiu Bas were cursing and obeying the orders in the end?
The two of them didn't want to hate the Western Army at the moment, so they pretended not to hear it. They exchanged greetings with the old clan, and the old clan recommended the Western Army generals one by one. The generals were all polite and respectful, and each of them looked very good. Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong pretended not to see it, and they accepted their words more politely. Yuwen Xuzhong even said that he gave him words and smiled, barely maintaining the atmosphere of a court envoy who was dedicated to comforting the soldiers of the great men of hard work.
Wang Bing had already dismounted at this time, standing behind Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong with equal respect. The generals of the Western Army looked at him with disdain. Wang Bing quietly avoided him, but he focused on looking at the generals who were greeting the envoys. He glanced at him and then calmed down. He looked carefully and looked at him again. His face turned into a double look.
Xiao Yan and his generals were all in it! Could it be that Xiao Yan would not come out to welcome the two envoys of the Tianyue Army in Yanjing? Isn’t this handing the ready-made handle to Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong? Xiao Yan’s son is full of opportunities and will never do such stupid things!
Could it be that Xiao Yan is not in Yanjing City? So where is he now? What are he doing? Wang Bing’s hands and feet were a little cold, and he couldn’t help looking around. In fact, when he came over, he could see clearly that a boss had already been in his heart. Seeing the camping posture of Yanjing, most of the main forces of the Western Army had been clustered in one place. So many soldiers and horses gathered in one place, and the territory they had just captured was already unreasonable. Combined with the strangeness of Xiao Yan’s absence among the crowd, what were the ideas of Lao Zhong and Xiao Yan?
This doubt rolled in Wang Bing's heart. He naturally felt guilty about Xiao Yan, who was suppressed and retaliated after making great achievements. But it did not mean that he would like to see something happening to Yan Di. However, in this occasion, there was no room for him to ask questions, so he could only let this doubt roll bigger and bigger in his heart!
Fortunately, it was not just Wang Bing who discovered this strange situation. Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong came here mainly for Xiao Yan. Both of them were very curious about this character, and they had repeatedly considered it along the way. They met Xiao Yanchu and what kind of words they had to say and what style they used to stabilize him and suppress his arrogance. At the beginning, these characters who emerged from nowhere were in the range of two people, bored in the car, and they even practiced a lot. These words were held in their chests, and they were just waiting to see Xiao Yan burst out.
The old army led them to recommend them one by one. Almost all the famous generals of the Western Army met, but they never introduced a guy named Xiao Yan. Geng Nanzhong was very skilled in qi cultivation and could still hold it in. Yuwen Xuzhong was full of energy and was very famous in this trip. He couldn't bear it anymore and smiled and beat him with a smile: "The Western Army is so full of soldiers! If it weren't for such a tiger, it would be difficult to quickly get off the city of Yanjing! However, it is said that Xiao Xuanzan has a lot of contributions to taking the city of Yanjing. I was surprised. With the generals of the Western Army in front of him, could Xiao Xuanzan still be able to share the contributions from the old generation's husband? In the city of Bianliang, Xiao Xuanzan's name has been filled with all his ears. The old generation's husband, should he recommend it to someone and two others?"
Geng Nanzhong also stopped smiling and looked at Zhong Shidao who was walking beside the two of them. Zhong Shidao turned his head to face their eyes, and his old face looked half-in-the-stop, and then he slowly spoke: "Two angels, have you never received the news from us? Xiao Xuanzan is not in Yanjing City at this moment!"
Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong widened their eyes together, unable to hide their shock. What is Xiao Yan doing? The old man obviously cooperated with Xiao Yan, so what is he planning? Xiao Yan avoided the two envoys, and was afraid that he was being taken down by them on the spot, so he went out... But he could avoid it for a while, could he avoid it for a lifetime? Unless he turned against the Song Dynasty! If he really turned against the Song Dynasty, he would fulfill everyone's wish! Unless he could use the skills he had won to turn the tables... What methods did he have to turn the tables?
As for Lao Zhong's statement that the military newspaper was sent, Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong had no doubt that Lao Zhong and Xiao Yan did send military newspapers. However, the two came north on the way, but the military newspaper was sent to the south, so naturally they could not deliver them! Maybe Lao Zhong and Xiao Yan used some methods to make the military report slower... What are the two of them doing? What are their conspiracies and what are they doing!
Yuwen Xuzhong reacted first, smiled faintly, and looked like he was distracted: "Of course, I didn't receive this military newspaper... It's a pity that I couldn't meet Xiao Xuanzan in Yanjing City... But I don't know what the important thing mentioned in this military newspaper is. Even Xiao Xuanzan can't wait for the military military "?"
The old race also looked faint, as if he was talking about the most irrelevant thing: "Although Yanjing was down, the land of Yanyun was not completely pacified. The remnants of the Liao people gathered in the northwest and connected to the troops of Yelu Yanxi in the Yunnei army. They were sweeping away the military states that were beyond our reach and trying to counterattack Yanjing. They also raised the banner of restoring the Liao army. The momentum was huge, and half of the land of Youyan was already shocked... Xiao Xuanzan was eager for state affairs and had led his troops to block and attack and suppress them. During the Bianliang Dynasty, he thought that capturing Yanjing would be a Northern Expedition, but he did not expect that we generals were still sitting on the crater and were still fighting hard to pacify Yan!"
What kind of imprisoned Liao army? Wen Ya is like Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong, and at this time, she cursed indecent words in her heart. Martial officials are used to raising enemies and respecting themselves, which is also a common method for civil officials to see. But sometimes they turn a blind eye. When the two of them enter Yanjing, they summon you Xiao Yan to come back to see you. If you Xiao Yan comes back, you will still not come back? If you don’t come back, you will have to wait for the scope of your life. If you don’t come back, you will have to go back to the Song Dynasty. The Western Army that lets you go out of Yanjing will not be affected.
On the contrary, it is something we like the most! You, Xiao Yan, avoid us and the other two, what is the purpose of the past few days of kung fu? It is really a trick! As for the Liao army, the so-called momentum is probably not fabricated by you, Lao Zong and Xiao Yan. Even if the momentum is really so large, half of the Yan land will be ruined. As long as these martial officials can do it, it will not be difficult to slowly fight against the pacification. Then more people will be killed, but we will not be killed anyway!
Yuwen Xuzhong first thought about this truth, but just smiled without saying a word. Geng Nanzhong had a much more square temper. Lao Zong and Xiao Yan were so blatant that he really hated him. The military minister was domineering and uncivilized, and he was a little relaxed and restrained, just like this! Wang Fu Tong Guan and her husband were having a lot of fun fighting, and they could even leave such a big deal. In the end, we are not the purgatory scholars and officials who are eager to do state affairs to deal with the situation!
He immediately asked the old clan coldly: "Since the remnants of the Liao people are powerful, why did Xiao Xuanzan go out to suppress the Baptist? Why didn't the Western Army come out? Xiao Xuanzan sent a group of troops, and a group of troops from the Western Army. Several ministers and Xiao Xuanzan were in charge of the city of Yanjing. They could support them at any time. Isn't it more reasonable? The official sent envoys to look up at the army and handled the aftermath. This is an important matter. How could Xiao Xuanzan dare to go out lightly? Where is the official decent place? Xiao Yannan surrendered ministers, but he didn't know the Song system. Why didn't the old clan advocate dominate everything? Although the old clan has private friendship, justice is hard to spend, so he can't say that he will be involved in your book!"
If the two envoys spoke well, the Western Army generals would not care about the whole set of etiquette and would hold them to the sky. Now Heng was preparing to tear his face apart and have a fight with the envoys in the court. At the beginning of getting off the car, this ambassador Geng Nanzhong Geng spoke to the old master who was highly prestigious in the Western Army. It was really a great power. At this moment, the Western Army generals' faces turned dark, and some people spoke softly, opening and closing their mouths, obviously cursing their mother secretly.
The old man looked motionless, and looked back at the generals who were stammering there and smiled faintly: "It makes sense? Well, we vulgar military officials are also here to talk to the two envoys! Our Western Army, 150,000 out of Shaanxi, commanded the killing of Tong Xuanshu. As a result, the number here is only less than half. Tong Xuanshu has lost his troops several times, and now he is enjoying his blessings in Bianliang, but we are still on this crater and no one cares about it for several months. Is this reasonable? Tong Xuanshu doesn't ask for the crime, but asks us if it is wrong?"
Previously, the old man was full of decadent behavior, bent his waist, walked tremblingly, and he deliberately looked like he was leaking. Now he had straightened his waist, and the marks on his face were like a knife and axe, recording the extraordinary history of this veteran Song Dynasty for decades. All the eyes were shining, and he looked powerful, so he was still like an old man in his seventies!
He pressed his sword and raised his hand, swept away the generals present, staring at Geng Nanzhong, saying, "The Western Army has been garrisoned for more than two years. Regardless of the previous law of Shaosheng or the later law of Shaosheng, it has not returned to the garrison for nearly three years. Our commander has come and go freely and left the battlefield without reason. Is this reasonable? The soldiers are on an expedition, and they use their lives to reward the officials, and the court has given them a gift. They face the cold spearhead. After a battle, they have died and injured. Are they still waiting for some money to work hard to return to their hometown to support a family, and even Zhou Ji died in the battle to leave some land for their descendants and children... But since the Northern Expedition, except for the daily grain army, it has not been a matter of waiting for the money to work hard to return to their hometown to support a family, and even Zhou Ji died in the battle to kill his family, leaving some land for his descendants and children... But since the Northern Expedition, in addition to the daily food army,
The supply of funds, after half a year of war, the government received four months of salary! The war was urgent, and we were eager to do state affairs, so we could not ask for salary. However, Yanjing had been fighting for two months. The soldiers and soldiers were waiting for the imperial court to reward him, but they had to pay a penny from the army to receive and comfort the refugees in this newly obtained place. The two envoys read the army on behalf of Tian, and they also had the intention of comforting the army. If the morale of the army was not collected, how to fight far away? If the two envoys did not mention how to comfort us, the generals, but accused us of not leaving. Is this reasonable?"
The old clan spoke passionately. The Western generals behind him were flirting with their eyebrows, although they did not agree. However, the depressed aura aroused by the old clan was really felt as if they were hitting him like a tide! Geng Nanzhong's face was as blue as he could. He was not a person who could just say anything, nor did he experience such a scene where the military officials in the gang were right to resist. He could not find a word to refute for a while, but he was so angry that his hands and feet were cold. The world was going to be in chaos, and the military was domineering! It was not the arrogance that Tong Guan Tongjun was powerless that day, and he raised! The disaster of the Song Dynasty, the disaster of the Song Dynasty!
Yuwen Xuzhong didn't speak, but just watched everything in front of him coldly. Everything in front of him was obviously not the situation he had expected before. Since there was a change, the strategy had to be adjusted. It would be better to let Lao Zhong continue to talk, understand their plans clearly, and then deal with it. He just stood there, with a slight smile on his face, allowing Lao Zhong to continue talking.
The old generation really had no intention of stopping. The white beard trembled, his expression was angry, and he still talked endlessly: "...We have done our best to support everything in front of us. The Western Army has been garrisoned for three years, and the morale of the army has become the boss. How can we force ourselves to go out for a long battle? Once it is unfavorable, it will encourage the remnant power of the Liao people. At that time, the situation in Yan land will be really uncontrollable! Xiao Xuanzan is loyal to his loyalty. Compared with the Western Army, the Shenwu Eternal Victory Army is still quite powerful, and it is more of a cavalry, and it is like the wind, and it can be dealt with. Xiao Xuanzan made such a wonderful achievement. He did not give a reward in Yanjing City, but instead came out to fight against the Liao people.
Remnants. Victory is not enough to praise the merits. Re-Yan is a great achievement. If it is defeated, what glory can it add? In case of unfavorableness, it will greatly damage the reputation and achievements. But Xiao Xuanzan does not care about success or failure, and resolutely takes responsibility. I can only write a word of conscience in my heart! I thought that after the two angels comforted us, and after we cleaned up some morale, the old man naturally wanted to send troops to defeat Yan and put such a great land in front of the official ranks, and did not do anything to the later generations. However, I did not expect that the two envoys did not ask about the reason for their love, but just looked for us, Qiu Ba, who had been fighting for a hundred years! Is this reasonable?
...The wise and wise are not as good as the official. The decree we received was that the two envoys came to comfort the army. The aftermath of the war in Yan land was handled. What else can we say? But we did not see the two envoys Xuanfu, and they carefully investigated the situation in Yan land, but we immediately found that we were not... Tong Xuanfu was defeated and killed the generals. Now they live in Yanjing City. Why didn't we see the two envoys looking for him? Since Tong
Shuai Xuan abandoned us and left. Now we stayed in Yanyun. Even in front of the official family, we have to let us speak. We have already had the bullet and bullets of Tong Xuanshuai! We have been fighting for the rest of our lives and dare not say anything in front of the two envoys. We only hope that the two envoys will carefully investigate all the details of Yan land, deal with everything, and report to the sky... We only hope for one fairness! Since the Northern Expedition, the entire army, regardless of living or dead, have been grateful to the land!"
After saying that, the old clan bowed deeply to the ground. Behind him, all the generals of the Western Army, Yao Gu, bowed to the ground: "The Western Army, regardless of life or death, will be grateful to the great kindness of the two angels!"
This is still called not wanting to say anything more? The old genius said in a constant stream of words, and the depression that the Western Army had been in full swing since the Northern Expedition almost poured out at this moment! Geng Nanzhong's face was extremely blue. He was the most pure scholar and could not stand the domineering and threatening actions of these martial artists no matter what! Although the Western Army generals were so strict and so many Western Army soldiers lined up to look at him, he was not afraid of anything, and he snorted coldly and was about to speak, but he felt that someone was pulling behind him. When he looked back, he saw Yuwen Xuzhong slowly shook his head to him.
Geng Nanzhong was stunned. Yuwen Xuzhong had already passed him, and helped Zhun Shidao up with both hands, and smiled and said, "Why is old husband, why is this? Some and the other men have no prejudice against the matters of Yandi, so they are naturally fair in their arguments. The generals have made great contributions. They are waiting for the imperial court to give the gifts and rewards. Why bother to make such anger? Let's talk to the city! Since Xiao Xuanzan is out, it's fine. When he returns the military affairs of the Liao people, it's fine to see Xiao Xuanzan again. I'm planning to bother the old husband for a few days. So if you care about these skills sooner or later? Along the way, the young people in the Five Insect Temple will be about to turn the world. Will the old husband not even be reluctant to give up this?"
Yuwen Xuzhong said softly, and Lao Zhong immediately smiled and raised his hand to invite him, leading the way: "It is a blessing for someone to be able to feast for the two angels. Two angels, please, please, please!"
The generals dispersed with a loud bang, and naturally there were flags leading the two envoys' mounts. Geng Nanzhong, Yu and Wen Xuzhong turned over to the horse. The old generation walked in front, the two were behind, Wang Bing followed, and behind were a large number of Western generals. The golden drums, silk and bamboos immediately started to fight, and all the ceremonial wars were fought, leading them like a covering of the sky and the sun, and passing through the city and heading straight for the Yanjing City Office.
Originally, the imperial envoys set foot in Yanjing City on behalf of the sky, which was an unprecedented event in the Song Dynasty for more than a hundred years. Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong were also quite content with this matter. The Song people and officials were not worried about wealth and honor, and those with a little ethics were all good. At this time, thousands of troops were surrounded and entered Yanjing. They should have been very excited. Maybe they would have to write poems about Ji Sheng soon, but the appearance of the city gate was waiting for the grand city of Yanjing, which was not even divided into the eyes of the two!
Although the generals of the Western Army surrounded the two envoys, the old generation in front and the generals behind deliberately kept a distance from them, and the strange smell could not be hidden. There was only one king beside them, which seemed empty.
Riding on the horse, Geng Nanzhong had a dark face, and finally couldn't help but get close to him. He still insisted on smiling. He couldn't stop looking around and said coldly: "Shutong, what do you mean? The military ministers domineeringly threatened him, do you bow your head? I'll walk straight, and they dare to turn against the Song Dynasty. We should denounce the old generation and recall Xiao Yan. It turns out that the way of negotiations should be doubled, and they will be so painfully that they are scattered! The military ministers domineeringly shake the foundation of the Song Dynasty! Even if someone dies in Yanjing City, what is left is a reputation for eternity! Shutong, your actions, are you going to force someone to cut off your mat?"
Yuwen Xuzhong looked at Geng Nanzhong and shook his head slightly: "...Brother Xi Dao, Brother Xi Dao, this is a pleasure to do, but it is useless to do something big!"
Geng Nanzhong was stunned and was about to refute, but Yuwen Xuzhong spoke again quickly and anxiously: "Why did you look for this opportunity when you come here? My husband and Wang Xianggong fought with each other, but left Yan Yun, a hot potato, no one to cook. The official family was full of thought and wanted to deal with Yan Yun's affairs early, so that he could contribute to the Taimiao! This is the situation where the official family is prosperous and Hengyu, how can it be tolerated? So whether these martial officials are domineering or not, as long as they cook early, the official family doesn't care. And our lineage and Tong Xuanshuai were temporarily united. Tong Xuanshuai was originally the old commander of the Western Army, and the official family still believed that Tong Xuanshuai had any remaining power over the Western Army. We joined forces with Tong Xuanshuai's party, and it seems that it would be the fastest way to deal with Yan Yun. Since we were going to suppress the military officials, the official family followed me, and these officials didn't care...
...But the situation in front of us, there is another remnant of Liao people! These martial officials are not a means of self-respecting, but if we force them into a hurry, these martial officials are all heartless, and they can really make the land of Yan chaos! After finally recovering the land of Yanyun, he was unable to recover the aftermath, but what was waiting for was a news of chaos. What should the official think? What would the official do? These martial officials can see clearly that seeing that the city of Yanjing was being remediated by them, there are also great talents among these martial officials! But it may be Xiao Yan or the Western Army... Brother Xi Dao, do you think that you can still act with caution?"
After hearing what Yuwen Xuzhong said, Geng Nanzhong's ugly face was already over, and he was more contemptuous. At this moment, he could only snort coldly: "Is it just that he is forced to do so? What do they want to do if they are threatened by these military officials? Then how can he gain a foothold in the court after this trip? How do the world see two people?... The two traitors in the court have chaoticized the country, but even these military officials cannot suppress them, and they are about to become a disaster for the vassal state! Tong Guan, even if he dies, he will not redeem them!"
Yuwen Xuzhong smiled faintly, his expression full of confidence: "...It's not that. The Western Army families are all in the Song Dynasty and Shaanxi. They have been supported by the whole country for a hundred years and are deeply kind. These military officials have indeed suffered injustice under Tong Xuanshuo this time, and they will not have reached the vassal state... There is still something to do. What they control now is the remnants of the Liao people... You and I calm down and deal with each other for a while. As long as we find out the Liao people
The remnant is just like this - it is inevitable that the old Xiao Yan exaggerated it ten times! You and I quickly urged the rear to bring the rewards and transportation. After calming the morale of the army, they also slacked off and looked down on me and then used thunderous methods! Recalling Xiao Yan, he might have to kill the chicken and show the monkey... Who said that scholars cannot kill people? With the same kindness and power, the Western Army could only stop, and the clouds and mists turned into smoke and disappeared... Brother Xi Dao, this is still where you and I became famous all over the world!"
After hearing Yuwen Xuzhong's conspiracy, Geng Nanzhong pondered silently. He knew that he was not as flexible as Yuwen Xuzhong, so he could only make the decision. For some reason, Geng Nanzhong was not as confident as Yuwen Xuzhong. After a while, he sighed softly: "Brother Shutong, everything is up to you. I will deal with the old generation before watching... I don't know why, in this Yanjing city, I always feel that the depressed aura is like a tide... The domineering martial officials are rarely heart-warming, and have been inherited by generations of righteous people in the country and are firmly suppressed. This depressed aura has been condensed for a hundred years... After a long time, it becomes a hostile atmosphere, but I can't let this hostile atmosphere come out of no matter how hard it is! Brother Shutong, you have become unparalleled. Please give me more in this matter!"
Wang Bing followed the two quietly, and was not wary of Wang Bing. This reliable force was to be made with kindness. He walked with Wang Bing and knew that Wang Bing was a square and generous person, with a great spirit of a scholar. He told a military minister that he had a scholar-official spirit, which was a praise that he had reached the sky. The two of them did not avoid Wang Bing. Although the surrounding golden drums, silk and bamboo were noisy, Wang Bing also heard most of the time.
Behind him, he just shook his head secretly. Although Yu Wen Xuzhong was flexible, he took a step back temporarily. However, in his words, he still looked down on the military ministers and thought that his wrists were more flexible, so these martial artists naturally wanted to go to the scope. The two of them were more wary of the old race, but they still didn't take Xiao Yan seriously. They were afraid that everything that happened in front of him was the arrangement of the old race, and Xiao Yan was just obedient to the order.
That's because they had never seen Xiao Yan... In a Northern Expedition, Xiao Yan not only achieved the miracle of defeating Yan Yun with his meager strength, but also turned his hand to cloud and turned his hand to rain, and actually drove away Tong Guan, who had a foundation position far dozens of times more than him! Wang Bing could almost assert that everything Yan Yun in front of him must be led by Xiao Yan to this point! Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong thought that if you just perfunctory for a while, you could slow down the hearts of these martial officials and finally use thunder means. But they didn't know that maybe Xiao Yan's thunder means would be used immediately! He always acted without any trouble and would never give you enough time to deal with it!
For some reason, Wang Bing did not want to remind the two envoys. Everything around him was full of depression. Geng Nanzhong was right. This was the depression that the civil officials suppressed the military officials for a hundred years in the Song Dynasty! It was the depression that the Song Dynasty only had such a little war-capable soldiers, and the civil officials were still wary of every effort and destroyed them in every way! This depression bell has been long and will really turn into a hostile spirit, so it would be better to let it express it... When the country is in a turbulent state, it should be better to preserve some force to fight! At that time, aren't these military officials who go into battle? They can have a little status and in the future, they can do their best to fight for the country!
Old seeds, you probably did your best to help Xiao Yan?
Wang Bing's prediction was indeed much more accurate than the two envoys Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong.
Xiao Yan's thundering method is indeed right in front of him!
Between the wilderness on the edge of Youyan, the torches in the camps everywhere are dotted, illuminating everything around clearly. In the camps, there are occasionally Khitan singing, and the words are desolate and majestic, and they are spread far and wide in the empty fields.
After more than two hundred years, to be honest, the iron nation has long been much more fragile. It has long been no longer the iron-headed force of the Abaoji era. Therefore, the Jurchens suddenly became defeated and fell into a state of falling flowers and water. But in this desperate situation, these Khitan remnants and the remnants of the Liao people seemed to have recovered a little of their ancestors' blood. Even in such a desperate situation, they had to follow their last hero, Dashi Linya, and fight to the death.
In the ruined camps, I don’t know how many people were sharpening the wooden sticks in their hands, polishing a bad knife, cutting wood into a shield. The last bit of food in the camp was also pulled out and distributed. No matter how old or young, they were full, and they were waiting for the camp to collapse tomorrow and spread around the swallow land, making a try to survive in death.
In addition to singing, there are occasional women whimpering and crying like ghosts, making everything around them different from the human scene.
Most people here don’t know that their final efforts were just performed according to a person’s script. In this script, their fate was long destined.
This person is Xiao Yan.
The old camp of the Liao army was naturally much more strict than the surrounding ruined camps. Among the camps, there was only the sound of the diamond horns and the torches were ignited, illuminating the Yelu Dashi flag hanging high in the camp. It was this flag that attracted the remnants of the Liao people to follow him risking their lives.
Xiao Yan was wearing a cloak and stood on a corner tower in the middle of the camp, looking at the stars in the fields, and looking at the desolate scene in the wilderness.
The fate of tens of thousands of people is in their own hands. If you want to live, you will live; if you want to die, you will die. This is what he pursues when he comes to this troubled world. For some reason, he doesn't have much complacent in his heart. He looks depressed and doesn't know what he is thinking.
Behind Xiao Yan, footsteps suddenly came. When he looked back, he saw that it was his personal guard leader Zhang Xian who climbed up the stairs. Protecting Xiao Yan in a dangerous place, Zhang Xian looked ten times more cautious than usual. He didn't stay in the patrol every night and couldn't sleep for three or two hours. He had to check every important person repeatedly, seeing whether he was being closely monitored and whether there were any omissions. He looked lost.
To be continued...
