A subordinate came over and said, "Sir, Han Wu is about to die."

Li Wenzhao shook his head. After more than ten years of repeated failures, this blow was long gone.

He came to Han Wu and held his hand: "Brother, I have caused trouble for you."

Han Wu shook his head: "Following the young master, Han Wu... just became a man. Along the way, every extra day of life... is... earned. Young Master, Han Wu... thank you, but I can't help... anymore

After following... I only regret that... I haven't seen the young master... achieve great things..."

Even though he had a heart of stone, Li Wenzhao also had handsome eyes with tears in his eyes. He held his shoulders and took off the dagger from his waist: "After a while, the soul took off the body, and my brother attached himself to the dagger. One day, one day...

I will take everyone back, and I will take all the brothers who have come along the way to Dijinze to find a place... We, just look at Haizi, the blue Haizi, and the blue sky every day

, white clouds, white sheep..."

Han Wu frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows, and then smiled.

The dagger was inserted into his chest.

Li Wenzhao's tears finally fell: "Brother, don't walk too fast on the road to Huangquan. Wait for your brother."

Han Wu was dead. Li Wenzhao put him down gently, wiped the dagger clean, and put it in the horse's bag: "Bury my brother and move him. You can't stay here for too long."

The subordinate asked: "Sir, where are we going?"

Li Wenzhao frowned: "Send a message to Weizhou Xiaozhizhou and tell him that Huanqing is just smoke."

"Why is this mad dog Jialiang so eager to bite people? That's because Liang Zuo is in Tiandu Mountain."

"Then, let's find a quiet place and sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."

The subordinate hesitated and said: "Send a message to the people of Song Dynasty? Young master, we are Xixia people. I understand that those subordinates are from our tribe..."

Li Wenzhao smiled bitterly and said: "Nuan Na, this is for our survival."

"Liang Zuo's 70,000-strong army has been assembled, and we only have these thirty or forty people left. How can we sympathize with him?"

"I don't want Xixia to be defeated. Su Tanhua and Zhongda have more than 10,000 regular troops and 20,000 Xiang troops. If they can't survive, the Liugufan who surrounded Qingyanwei will also be finished.

That’s when we really get into trouble.”

Balitina nodded: "Young Master should consider Zhou Xiang, then I will bury Fifth Brother Han."

Li Wenzhao looked at Bari Tina's back, his eyes became extremely deep.

…

Zhao Shu received the military report from Xue Xiang, and his dull expression became a little nervous: "Didn't you say that you wanted to lure the Xixia people to Weizhou? Why did the war happen in Huanqing? Is Su Mingrun's strategy really what the brothers said?

trustworthy?"

Han Qi couldn't help but roll his eyes. The war hasn't officially started yet. Are you ready to find the scapegoat?

So he bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Su Mingrun is not in vain. Li Jing has done a really good job in Weizhou for one year. If he forgives Zuo and does not invade Weizhou, he can get two years of training, that would not be a bad thing."

Zhao Shu said: "It is also strange how the two dragon colts of Lord Xia arrived at Weizhou City."

Fu Bi said: "Weizhou reported that Tianma suddenly appeared in the north of Weizhou City. It was several young men from the Academy who first discovered it. Su Mingrun also wanted to report Xiangrui, but Xue Xiang stopped him. After inspection, it was found that the horse's buttocks had the imprint of the Xixia royal family.

Only then did I know that it was the horse that Master Xia kept in his palace."

Ouyang Xiu scolded: "Su Mingrun's move is really ridiculous. He actually said that our officials in the Song Dynasty were benevolent and politically clear, so they attracted the Xixia horses to come to court! Isn't this lying with open eyes?! Does he want to be a lucky minister?"

No one dared to say anything. You are a tough guy and you are awesome. You are the only one in this room who dares to say this.

Zhao Shu was also a little embarrassed and asked: "Could it be that the border generals were provocative, trying to anger the Xia Lord, and leading the troops to fight in order to achieve meritorious service?

Fu Bi said: "Su You probably didn't do this. Later, Liang Yiduo of Tiandu Mountain came to ask for the horse. Su You returned it without saying anything. He is still mature in doing things."

Even Sima Guang couldn't stand it anymore: "Send Su Mingrun to be the commander-in-chief of Wei. On that day, the prime minister will participate in politics. Your Majesty and the Queen Mother are both present. The plan has been decided, so there should be no change."

"Now that the war in Shaanxi has not started, Cai Ting has gathered all the border households to enter the Baoqing wilderness and warned the villages not to go out to fight. He also ordered the deputy envoy Zhang Yu to lead the Zhong'er sharp division to guard it. He has already filed the Xia army's sharpness in Rouyuan stronghold. As long as the forts are strictly guarded

, I expect the Xia army will not dare to advance lightly."

Fu Bi was the privy envoy and had a clearer understanding of the situation in Shaanxi: "Cai Ting did not use Weizhou's military power, and Xue Xiang did not ask for help in his report, so your majesty does not need to worry too much."

Han Qi nodded: "The Xia army that appeared in Huanqing is under the banner of Xia General Liang Yongneng. This person is known as a famous general. This time he announced 50,000 troops, but he could not even capture the weakly defended Rouyuan Village. It seems that

Erle.”

Fu Bi bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Xian, as said, the famous general led an army of fifty thousand, but could not take Rouyuan Stronghold. The Privy Council feels that we should be more vigilant about this matter. I am afraid there is something fishy in it."

Han Qi asked: "You mean, Huanqing's troops are not the main force of the Xixia people?"

Fu Bi frowned: "In any case, the Xixia people have already made their first move. The Shaanxi report has arrived in the capital. Even if the whole journey of 600 miles is expedited, it is still news six days ago."

"Huanqing has already moved, and the main force can't hide it for too long, so whether Weizhou is the real main direction of attack will soon be known."

Zhao Shu regained his wooden expression: "In that case, let's wait for the news from Weizhou."

When he came out of the court, Fu Bi stopped Sima Guang: "Great admonishment, Su Youhou's failure to secure the village has not been impeached, which shows that the great admonishment still takes the overall situation into consideration."

Sima Guang took out the memorial from his sleeve: "It's not that I haven't written it, but now that the war is imminent, if the officials get up to speed and find an excuse to replace Su Mingrun with an internal official to lead the army, the situation in Shaanxi will soon be ruined."

After saying that, he also sighed: "My elders at home wrote to me that Su Mingrun is really a good person in managing the government and the people in Weizhou. Weizhou has a big harvest this year, which is inseparable from his guiding canals and water, attracting investment and raising questions."

.”

"This kind of talent is really rare, but merit is merit and fault is fault."

"I, Sima Jun, will never deceive you. If the Xia people really attack Wei, that will be the most difficult situation for Su Mingrun."

"If he can resist it, my bullets will most likely miss without a hit; but if he fails to resist, he will be punished with multiple crimes, which may not be a good thing for him."

"So this memorial will go up sooner or later. If I win, I don't need him to thank me; if I lose, I won't complain. Everything is up to him."

After saying that, he handed over to Fu Bi and went on his own.

Fu Bi looked at Sima Guang's stubborn back and shook his head.

Han Qi came to him and said, "How is it? Gentlemen in the court want to make Sima Jun the prime minister."

Fu Bi did not speak, but shook his head gently.

…

At Tiandu Mountain Palace, Liang Zuo stood in front of the stables, looking at Zhao Yebai and Sa Luzi.

Wei Minglangyu knelt beside him, putting his hands on his knees: "I am guilty."

Liang Zuo took the big gourd and gourd and fed Sa Lu Zi while stroking its satin-like fur: "It's just two horses. I won't blame the emperor uncle for this."

Wei Minglangyu said: "I am still ashamed and have no place. Please relieve me from my military post and let me retire."

Liang Zuo handed the ladle to the attendant, clapped his hands, and helped Wei Minglangyu up: "How can the emperor's uncle say such things? Changing generals when facing the enemy is a taboo for military strategists. What's more, the emperor's uncle has nothing to do with this matter. It's a shame."

Weren't you still inspecting Xiaoguan when we arrived?"

The two of them slowly left the stable, and Liang Zuo asked, "That Mr. Song Dynasty seems to have good methods."

Wei Minglangyu said: "According to the last news sent by the old minister's spies in Weizhou, what Mr. Liang said in Chaogu, ah, is true. The skills of steelmaking and alcohol he contributed are also true."

It really does come in handy.”

"However, according to Yiduo Mi's test of Weizhou Zhizhou, the two of them held different opinions. Su Tanhua refused to admit that he was sorry for his friend. Instead, he said that he was from a farmer's family in Jialiang and had low self-esteem, interpreting his good intentions.

It became malicious.”

Liang Zuo smiled and said meaningfully: "Like Li Wenzhao, I ask myself that there is nothing I can't do against him, but he is so grudged about his predecessors that he can't let go. He has repeatedly opposed me. In addition to his low self-esteem, he can't let go."
