At the foot of Shimen Mountain, Zhe Kerou looked at the flags coming in the distance, and was comparing him with his younger brother Zhe Kexing.

The Zhe family is descended from Daowu of the Later Wei Dynasty. After Xianbei, he lived in Fuzhou for many generations. He "protected China from the inside and rejected the barbarians and Di from the outside."

From the time when Taishan Gong Zhe Zongben was appointed as the governor of Hedong by Jin King Li Keyong and granted the title of Shangzhu Kingdom, the Zhe family has made immortal contributions to the country from generation to generation, guarding the border.

Different from Xixia, after the establishment of the Later Zhou Dynasty, people who left their families and returned home were asked to move to the inland. The imperial court knew the border situation well and refused to allow it. Instead, they generously rewarded and ordered them to guard the border areas.

In the wars on the eastern border of Song and Xia, the Zhe family usually served as the vanguard.

The current head of the Zhe family is Zhe Jizu, Zhe Kerou's uncle.

When the Xixia people invaded Huanqing, Zhe Jizu and his younger brother Zhe Kexing sent troops from Hedong to rescue them. They captured Jialuchuan, killed 400 enemies, surrendered a thousand households, and obtained tens of thousands of horses and livestock.

Since childhood, Zhe Kexing has been "brave even before he has a crown, and capable of galloping and shooting without being accustomed to it." "Everyone calls him a general."

Zhe Jizu had an eye disease, so Zhe Kexing was mainly in charge of this battle.

Zhe Kexing's performance was dazzling. It turned out that in addition to his bravery, his strategy was also extraordinary, and he turned out to be a rare commander.

All the senior generals looked at each other and congratulated each other, saying, "You are truly the prince!"

However, now that he saw a young man riding a horse in front of him, wearing a purple robe and being escorted by seventy cavalry troops, Zhe Kerou felt a little dizzy.

Compared to his younger brother, this is the real monster.

He patted the horse and stepped forward, turned over and got off the saddle: "Kerou has seen the handsome man."

This title is very strange, but Su You is the strategic envoy, equivalent to the commander of the theater, so he can indeed use this title.

The officialdom of the Song Dynasty valued literature over military affairs, and everyone generally followed the custom of calling him Su You Bachelor, or Economics Bachelor, and few people called him Commander-in-Chief directly.

Su You dismounted, looked at the mountain, and asked Zhe Kerou, "Are they all on the mountain?"

Zhe Kerou said: "Yes, the general chased here and convinced some of the sergeants. They vowed not to cause chaos, so they sent them to the rear to organize. The rest..."

After speaking, he shook his head.

Su You asked: "How many more people are there?"

Zhe Kerou said: "About a thousand people."

Lin Guang said: "Bachelor, you are just a turtle in a urn, you can knock it out with a drum."

Su You pondered for a long time and finally said: "I know what you are thinking. When the Guangrui Army arrives here, it has no choice but to fall into a desperate situation."

After speaking, he said harshly: "But they are your heroes! Comrades! They should not be used by you to claim credit and rewards!"

"The rebellion of the Guangrui Army is not just a disgrace to one of the troops, one of Yuhou, or one of the generals! It is a disgrace to the entire Western Army! It is a disgrace to the Emperor and Song Dynasty!"

"Why did they rebel? Don't you know? Is it really unclear?!"

"Li Xin's defeat was due to Wu Kui on the mountain, who took in the distressed Paoze, and had the opportunity to expose Li Fugui's crimes and save the face of the Western Army!"

"Is this the military style of Yongxing Military Road? Our comrades who once restored the reputation of the Western Army are now being forced into desperation. Don't you regret it? Don't you feel sad?! We don't share the same hatred as the enemy?!"

"Why do I come here? I just want to supervise you. If anyone dares to kill a soldier, I, Su You, will have him dismissed from his post. Don't say I didn't predict it!"

Lin Guang and Zhe Kerou looked at each other. They had both made up their minds to pretend to appease and then find a place to kill all the surrendered soldiers. Unexpectedly, Su Tanhua was so cruel to the Xixia people and so kind to the rebels on the mountain.

.

This battle is unwinnable!

Su You looked around and said to Wang Zhongzheng: "Last time I investigated Li Fugui, you had an encounter with Wu Kui, right?"

Wang Zhongzheng nodded: "Yes."

Su You said: "Can you trouble the supervisor to go up and inform Wu Kui? Just say I'm here. If you have any grievances, take care of it yourself."

In fact, Wang Zhongzheng was not interested in Su You's style of work. Anyone who found rebellious ministers and traitors would be punished. Wouldn't it be enough to cut them down?

Su You also knew what Wang Zhongzheng was thinking, and said: "The Yongxing army has been invaded repeatedly. Now the troops are insufficient. Guangrui Army 9 commanded 4,000 people, as well as their families. How can we still count these nearly 20,000 people?"

Kill? Your Majesty will agree?"

Wang Zhongzheng thought for a moment: "What the bachelor said is reasonable, then I'll go." After saying that, he went up the mountain.

After a while, Wang Zhongzheng came back: "Wu Kui said that he could not trust anyone in the entire Song Dynasty, but he could only trust Su Xueshi. He knew that he was not alive, but he wanted to see you in person and express his grievances."

Su You sighed and said to Sun Neng: "Then Qianchen, please accompany me up."

Lin Guang and Zhe Kerou were shocked: "No, the commander-in-chief is an important minister, how can he approach the traitors? They are all desperadoes. What will happen to Shaanxi if they hurt you?"

Su You pointed at the mountain with his riding whip: "There is a grass pavilion halfway up the mountain. In this way, the armies of both sides will not get close. I will only take Sun Neng to meet Wu Kui there. Both sides can see clearly and have less worries."

Lin Guang and Zhe Kerou still wanted to persuade them, but Su You said: "I have made up my mind. Please ask the supervisor to go back and discuss with them to see if this is okay."

Wang Zhongzheng went again. After a while, he and a strong man went down to the grass pavilion in the middle of the mountain. The man looked down the mountain from the grass pavilion. Wang Zhongzheng came down alone and said to Su You: "Bachelor, that is Wu Kui."

Su You took off his long-winged official hat and put on a lightweight soft-winged futou to make the meeting less formal, and said to Sun Neng: "Let's go."

Sun Neng took off the small leather bag containing Zhao Xu's wheel gun from the side of Su You's saddle and slung it across his body.

Arriving at the mountain pavilion, a tall man in ragged clothes knelt down and said, "Wu Kui, the Marquis of Yu, the capital of Guangrui Army, pays homage to the Bachelor of Economics."

Su You asked: "Du Yuhou, do you still think that you are a soldier of the Song Dynasty?"

Wu Kui raised his head with tears in his eyes: "This little man thinks he is serving his country with all his heart. The officers and soldiers of the Guangrui Army under his command have been working hard in Huanqing for half a year with three liters of grains and one hundred pickles money every day!"

"We have nothing to do with the Song Dynasty, but I would like to ask the Bachelor of Economics: Song Dynasty, have you ever thought that we were soldiers?!"

Su You couldn't help but feel speechless and a little ashamed.

Wu Kui said: "The summer dog Kou Luo Huanqing, Guang Rui's army is on the front line, but the heads we chopped off were all eaten by that bastard Wang Wenliang as his own achievements!"

"After the war, bachelor, you transferred the horses to the armies of Huanqing. Guangrui's army was originally supposed to have two hundred horses, but Wang Wenliang said that our Guangrui cavalry had no merit in the battle of Huanqing and our riding skills were not good. Not only did the bachelor give us

His horses were taken away by him, and even the original war horses were taken away and distributed to the Tibetan army!"

"Zhong Wulang wanted to attack Yinzhou and build Funing City in the middle of winter. Wang Wenliang sent us there, but we were not even given winter clothes. Some brothers even lost their fingers and toes from the cold!"

"When I came back from repairing the city, I was not allowed to rest, nor was I given food, nor was I provided with weapons, nor was I paid a salary. Han Jiang was indiscriminate and took me to jail."

"If my brothers hadn't rescued me, I wouldn't have known that the dog officer would kill me! He even sent the Guangrui Army to rescue Zhong Wu! This is clearly asking us to die!"

"Bachelor, how are you rebelling, brothers? You are really forced into desperation by Han Jiang, that bitch, and Wang Wenliang, that traitor..."

Su You's face became increasingly livid: "What's the grudge between you two? Why did he do this?"

Wu Kui said bitterly: "Li Xin's unjust imprisonment was caused by Wang Wenliang inciting Li Fugui! I gathered the defeated army and lost his face! He regarded me as a thorn in his side!"

Su You helped Wu Kui up: "I am investigating this matter, but now because you have rebelled from Qingzhou, Han Gong has returned to Yan'an to submit a letter of self-impeachment; Lawu City and Funing City have been lost, and Zhong'e is also waiting to be punished.

I have taken over the military affairs of Yongxing."

"Song Lu treated the soldiers who caused chaos extremely cruelly. Why don't you think about it?!"

"You can send soldiers to Weizhou for help. Since it's up to you to redress the grievances of Shiro Zhong, Zhongzhong Zhongzhen, can I not give you face?"
