Chapter 400 The Eternal Heroes of the Zhao Guan Family

Unknowingly, more than twenty days passed by in a hurry, and it was the end of one year again in the blink of an eye.

On this day, it happened to be the 27th of the twelfth month of the first year of Xuanhe. In Qingzhou City and Wu Song's Mansion, there was a crowd of people.

It turns out that half a month ago, Zhou Tong got married to Wanyan Wulu. Taking advantage of this theme, Chao Gai led forty or fifty heroes to come to have a wedding banquet. Brothers who were generals from various states also came with congratulatory gifts.

Come, one is congratulating Zhou Tong, and the other is just in time to report the development of various places and the recent situation to Lao Cao one by one.

The first is Liangshan.

With the deaths of Wang Qing and Tian Hu, the original four major bandit forces were reshuffled. Looking at the world, only Chao Gai and Fang La became famous for a while, known as the "Shenggong of the South and the King of the North." They were the leaders in the green forest in the world.

As a result, Liangshan's momentum became stronger and stronger, and many small villages and villages came to join him. Now there are no less than 120,000 soldiers capable of fighting.

In addition, due to the repeated defeats of the Liao Dynasty in recent years, the country's power has become increasingly declining, and the civil and military ministers have gradually lost control. Many people only care about their own wealth, ignore the prohibition, and smuggle war horses wantonly. The Tongque Trading Company heard the news, and was led by Zheng Tianshou in Zengtou City.

, Cangzhou Chaijin and both sides took the initiative, took the opportunity to buy good horses, and sent them to Liangshan one after another.

According to Chao Gai, there are now no less than thirty to forty thousand Liangshan horsemen. Lin Chong, Hu Yanzhuo and other generals are overjoyed. After selecting the best from the best, they have trained three thousand tiger cavalry, five thousand flying cavalry, and eight thousand leopard cavalry.

The tyranny of strength is far from what it used to be.

There are also elite infantry troops. Lu Zhishen has personally trained a thousand heavy-armored infantry, and he is the leader among them. They are all selected strong and brave men, wearing sixty kilograms of heavy armor, and wielding axes, flails, etc., to charge and kill.

The situation was such that the ground shook and the mountains shook. Wu Yong personally named him "the trapped warrior".

There are also Xiang Chong and Li Gun who trained 3,000 barbarian card players, who are called "Array Warriors", Guan Sheng trained 1,000 swordsmen, which are called "Array Breakers", and the three hundred demons left by Sheng Fan Rui

Soldiers, holy water, and divine fire were re-refined, and each of the two parts of water and fire was one thousand.

Outside Liangshan, generals from other states have also selected new troops and refined their troops. Now there are as few as three to five thousand people, as many as nearly ten thousand, in the seven states of Lai, Qi, Wei, Zi, Mi, Deng, and Qing.

Including Gaotang Prefecture, there are a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses, of which tens of thousands are cavalry.

These brothers who had sneaked into the imperial court and became generals came to Qingzhou this time, bringing not only congratulatory gifts to Zhou Tong, but also military orders issued by the imperial court.

After reading the transfer order, Cao Cao couldn't help being shocked - according to what was written in it, the imperial court was actually going to send soldiers and horses from several states to Daming Mansion to defend the Liao Kingdom, and it was also going to send soldiers and horses from several other states to Bianjing to prepare for the southern expedition to Fangla! Look at this!

The posture was actually preparing to fight on both sides. How could Lao Cao not be surprised by this? Could it be that the demons had taken possession of the bodies of the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty after his absence for a year? Otherwise, how could he be so crazy?

Lao Cao didn't know that the source of this strange thing was actually Yelu Dashi.

When Yelu Dashi escaped from Huining Mansion, Jin Danzi led his troops to pursue him but failed to catch him. He fled thousands of miles alone on his horse and fled back to the Liao Kingdom. He informed the Song Dynasty of sending envoys to Jin to make an alliance.

Emperor Tianzuo.

After hearing the report, Emperor Tianzuo refused to believe a word of it, and laughed and said: "I have always known that the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty are all ignorant and courageous people. I don't expect him to have the wisdom to collude with the Jin Kingdom, nor to offend our great country."

The courage to form an alliance is nothing, it must be a counter-intentional plan set up by the old thief A Guda! The old thief thinks that I don't study, but I don't know the story of Cao Cao's war with Han Sui and Ma Chao in the past, and the counter-intentional plan to defeat the enemy. I also

You know. With my wisdom, how can I compare to Ma Chao? He devised this plan to trick me into dividing his troops to attack the Song Dynasty, so that the old thief could take advantage of it. Don't you know that my sharp eyes have already seen through the old thief's heart, and he will be fooled? Haha

, such a shallow strategy can only deceive young and short-sighted people like Dashi Linya."

Emperor Tianzuo said that Yelu Dashi had no place to stand, but the words he said about counterintuitive schemes gave Yelu Dashi some inspiration. He immediately sent many people from his family to the Song Dynasty to spread rumors that the Liao and Jin Dynasties had been repaired.

He ceded Liaodong to the Jin Dynasty and granted Aguda the title of King of Donghuai.

Rumors spread, and the Song Dynasty court was shaken. They immediately shelved the alliance with the Jin Dynasty, and put Li Shanqing, the Jin envoy who came with Ma Zheng and Hu Yanqing, Sandu, Boda and others under house arrest. The monarchs and ministers were terrified.

, discuss countermeasures.

Seeing the decline of the officialdom and the shock of the ministers, Tong Guan held his chest and head high and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the Liao Kingdom has cut off Liaodong to the Jurchens, and its national strength has been greatly damaged. As expected by the old minister, he will definitely send troops to invade south and rob us of Hebei."

In order to make up for it, we just raised the army to overwhelm the country, and completed our victory in one battle. We destroyed the Khitans first, and then swallowed up the Jurchens, so as to achieve the cause of king hegemony! In this way, my ministers will live up to the king's importance, and your majesty can also surpass the Tang Zong and surpass the Han Dynasty.

, and achieve eternal achievements!”

As soon as Tong Guan said something, everyone in the hall was shocked.

You must know that more than a hundred years after the founding of the Song Dynasty, even during the reign of Emperor Taizu and Taizong, none of the many famous ministers and generals dared to say such bold words!

Cai Jing was the first to jump out, with a face full of sorrow: "Your Majesty, Privy Tong has lost his mind and gone crazy. I beg your Majesty, I think he has devoted himself to serving the country and has made great contributions. Please quickly ask the imperial doctor to treat him!"

Tong Guan was furious: "What did the Grand Master say? Why did I go crazy?"

Cai Jing looked at this old comrade and rival sadly: "How can you make such arrogant remarks if you are not crazy? I know that the plan to unite Jin and destroy Liao was your hard work for many years. Now that it is revealed, you will be so angry that you will lose your mind.

Shen Zhi, Your Majesty will not blame you, and we ministers will not laugh at you."

Zhao Guan's face was also full of sympathy and pity, and he advised: "Tong Qing's family, I know your loyalty from the bottom of my heart. But even if the plan of uniting Jin to destroy Liao succeeds, our country can take back Youyun's homeland.

Fortunately, now that this strategy has failed and Youyun is still unavailable, wouldn't it be foolish to talk about destroying Liao and destroying Jin? Come here, hurry up and tell the imperial doctor..."

But when he saw Tong Guan's eyes shining brightly and his face full of excitement, the official couldn't help but get scared - what if he rushed forward and punched me a few times?

"Your Majesty!" Tong Guan shouted: "I am not crazy! Listen to me!"

Zhao Guanjia was frightened by him and looked at Cai Jing. Cai Jing winked and Guanjia immediately thought: Oh, coax him first and wait until the imperial doctor comes! He immediately forced a smile on his face and said: "Okay, okay, Lao Qing's family is inviting me."

Say it, I and the ministers are all listening!"

Tong Guan made an impassioned speech: "Your Majesty, Grand Master, it turns out that we have always thought highly of the Liao Kingdom! The Liao Kingdom has strong soldiers and horses. What happened a hundred years ago has now been peaceful for a hundred years. They have long been vulnerable. This is not an empty statement by an old minister.

If I hadn't asked Ma Zheng and Hu Yanqing carefully about the details of their last mission, I'm afraid that now, just like Your Majesty and Grand Master, I would have thought that the Liao people were strong."

Zhao Guanjia and Cai Jing looked at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes. Tong Guanruo was crazy, but he spoke in an orderly manner. Cai Jing rolled his eyes and couldn't help but said: "Privy Minister, you might as well tell me in detail. I think it's up to us."

To the Liao Kingdom?"

Tong Guan said quickly: "I sent Qingzhou Jiedu envoy Wu Zhi to accompany me on this mission. He brought several generals to help the Jin and Liao people fight. They won several games in a row and played brilliantly.

Reputation. Later, before the Jin Chief A Gu fought against the imperial chariot, his generals fought against the Jin generals again, and they won many battles. It can be seen that the soldiers and generals of the Song Dynasty were still better than the Jin Kingdom, and even better than the Liao Kingdom."

Zhao Guanjia was a little surprised when he heard this. He rolled his eyes and thought for a long time: "I remember that Jiedushi, Wang Qing also made meritorious service in defeating Tianhu. Can he return to Qingzhou to serve now?"

Tong Guan shook his head and said: "Because of his extraordinary bravery, he was kept as a hostage by A Guda. He said that he would not be released until the next time the envoy went there. Now that Liao and Jin have made peace, he was probably killed by A Guda."

When Zhao Guanjia heard this, he couldn't help but smacked his lips: "Oh, isn't it a pity?"

"What a pity?" General Tong Guan spread his hands: "Our dynasty has ten military envoys, all of them are heroes, and there are also generals of the Western Army, among whom there are countless heroes. Although Wu Zhi is brave, he is against the Liao Dynasty. Jin is concerned, how can there be no one who can compare with us in the army of the Song Dynasty? Let alone others, I only say that when he fought against Wang Qing, he fought under Liu Yanqing. Both of them were awarded Jiedushi for their merits. When fighting against Tian Hu, It was also his brother Wu Song who killed Tian Hu in the army. Although Wu Zhi is dead now, Liu Yanqing and Wu Song are still there, and there may not be any brave men among the other generals."

Zhao Guanjia nodded while listening, and his face gradually became excited: "In this way, my Da Song... is actually very strong?"

"Very strong!" Tong Guan nodded decisively, and then sighed: "In fact, if it weren't for Wu Zhi's trip, the veteran would never have thought that the Liao Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom were nothing like this. Although Wu Zhi died, we looked down upon them. Real truth! Your Majesty, why do we actually need to form an alliance with the Jin Kingdom? Destroying the Khitan first and then devouring the Jurchens is the cause of men!"

This conversation between the monarch and his ministers made all the ministers disdain at first, then think deeply, and finally couldn't help but get excited - Privy Tong knows the generals, and what he said is reasonable and well-founded, and it is really convincing! Isn't it right? Let's just send any general. What does it mean to go on a mission and impress foreign countries with your bravery?

It shows that we are the strongest!

Just as the monarchs and ministers were excited, urgent news suddenly came - Jiangnan had rebelled against Fang La, and the situation was in ruins.

The officials seemed to have been poured cold water on their heads, and they were suddenly shocked: "Oh, ministers, what should we do?"

In an instant, all the ministers and ministers were dumbfounded, and Taishi Cai was speechless. However, the sea was flowing across the sea, and the hero showed his true colors. At this juncture, Privy Tong shouted again: "Your Majesty, don't worry! Let's call the soldiers from Hebei and Shandong to gather the big names. In the Mansion, Chen Xiong sent troops to the border to intimidate the Liao Kingdom. If he came to invade, he would block it from the country's gate. He waited for the old minister to lead the Western Army, go south with a thunderous force, and annihilate Fang La in one fell swoop. Then he led the victorious army. Return to the army and go north, join forces with Hebei and Shandong troops, first take over the territory of Yanyun and Han, and then open up the Great Song Dynasty in Liaodong. I swear to be my emperor, open up thousands of miles of territory, and achieve my emperor's heroic reputation throughout the ages!"

"Ah! Lao Qing's house!"

Zhao Ji stood up with a roar! As a perceptual artist, at this moment, his artistic soul burned brightly, and he was deeply moved by Tong Guan's impassioned ambition.

The eternal hero!

"If that day comes!" Zhao Guanjia's face turned red, he looked at the palace full of ministers and shouted loudly: "I will carry forward the history of the ages with Tong Qing's family, Grand Master Cai, and all the officials and ministers!"

The ministers looked at each other and saw that the official family was completely over the top right now. Who dared to dampen his interest? They all bowed deeply and shouted in unison: "First take over the Yanyunhan family land, and then open up Liaodong." Da Songtian!"

On the same day, a military letter and an order were sent out like snowflakes——

First, Wang Huan, the military envoy of Henan and Hebei, was sent to Wang Huan. The military envoy to Anping, Zhongshan, opened two lines of troops and sent troops to Damingfu to prepare for the Liao army.

Mu Hong, the military commander of Qingzhou, Sun Li, the military commander of Dengzhou, Xiao Jiasui, the commander of the Zizhou regiment, Zhu Jing, the commander of the Weizhou regiment, Shi Xiu, the commander of the Laizhou regiment, and Yuan Lang, the commander of the Mizhou regiment, each took their own troops and horses to go.

Daming Mansion assisted in the battle.

Then recruit the Sixth Route Western Army to conquer Fang La.

Which six routes? The first route is Xihe soldiers, led by Xin Xingzong and Yang Wei, the second route is Jingyuan soldiers, led by general Liu Zhen, the third route is Huanqing soldiers, led by Yang Keshi and Zhao Ming, the fourth route is Yanyan soldiers,

The leader is Huang Di, the fifth is Qin Fengbing, the leader is Ma Gongzhi, the sixth is Hedong soldiers, and the leader is Ji Jing.

The above six groups of soldiers and horses were all dispatched by Liu Yanqing, the military governor of the three cities in Henan. The total number of internal and external troops was 150,000, and they were personally commanded by Tong Guan.

Tong Guan was also afraid that he would lack strong generals capable of fighting, so he transferred Lu Junyi, the Laizhou defense envoy, Du Bo, the Qingzhou regiment training envoy, and Wu Song, the military and horse commander of Gaotang Prefecture. Each of them took their own troops and horses to join him in Bianjing.

Conquer Fang La.

Naturally, Lao Cao didn't know the ins and outs of the court. He only thought that he wanted to start a war with Fang La and the Liao Kingdom at the same time. So he was dumbfounded. After thinking about it carefully, he asked Mu Hong and others to lead one or two thousand troops each to Daming Mansion, while he and Wu Song

, Lu Junyi and Du Bo went to Bianjing to have a clear look.

However, since it would take some time to mobilize the Western Army, Lao Cao immediately asked them to delay the time in the name of building weapons and reorganizing the troops, hoping to wait until his nephew was born before going there.

Wu Song's mansion was originally bought by Lao Cao for Master Li to live in. Later Hu Sanniang and others moved to Qingzhou, bought another mansion, and left it to Wu Song. Zong Yun'er gave birth, so naturally it was in this mansion.

On this day, Zong Yun'er couldn't stand the boredom, and Wu Song couldn't help it. He could only watch her practicing martial arts with her big belly. Suddenly she made a move, and the gun came out like a dragon. Suddenly she felt a pain in her stomach, and she immediately shouted to Wu Song:

"Husband, the baby seems to be coming out."

Wu Song was shocked. He stepped forward and carried him into the room. Fortunately, everything was ready. Wang Po and An Daoquan had been waiting at his house for several days. When they heard the news, Wang Po hurriedly washed her hands and entered the room.

He delivered the baby for her, and An Daoquan provided timely consultation outside. The two complemented each other well.

Not long after, Cao Cao, Chao Gai and other brothers arrived one after another, and the Wu Song Mansion was crowded. After more than an hour, a cry was suddenly heard, and Grandma Wang shouted: "Congratulations to the second master, congratulations to the second master, mother and son are safe,

The old Wu family has added a young master!"

Wu Song heard this and quickly looked at Lao Cao. The two brothers looked up to the sky and laughed. Chao Gai and others also laughed, and they were all happy for Wu Song. After a while, they washed the child and took it out and let Wu Song see Wu Song's pair of hammers.

The iron hand of the dead big insect, holding the baby now, is like cotton, thanks to Lao Cao who is taking care of him.

Chao Gai and others made a fuss and asked Wu Song to name him. Wu Song thought for a long time and said slowly: "I gave birth to this child today. Fortunately, mother and son are safe. Brothers have a good laugh, so I will call him Wu Xiao."

I came back a little late today. My computer crashed once while I was writing. After restarting, I couldn't find more than 1,500 words, so I had to rewrite it. I cried to death.

I didn't have enough time to pay the debt yesterday, so I'll pay it tomorrow! Please forgive me.
Chapter completed!
