Chapter 1342 If you want to walk, you can't walk!
After returning to Duting Station from the palace, Zhang Jian immediately entered the study and wrote down what he saw and heard during this period, including the meeting with the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. He ordered the cavalry to fly north with flags. He wanted to convey the attitude of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty to Empress Dowager Xiao without saying a word.
He suddenly realized that his mission to the Song Dynasty was meaningless, or that Zhao Zhen had no intention of negotiating with him at all. He came to seek peace. Now Zhao Zhen has temporarily stopped his troops and has achieved his goal.
However, the Song Dynasty did this and was just a cultivation. The daily consumption and supplies of so many Song troops on the front line were amazing. The Song Dynasty's war on Zhongjing Road lasted for a spring, and casualties and consumption needed to be supplemented.
It was also at the end of its strength and its strength was exhausted, but even so, the Liao army was still no match for the Song people, and at least it could not directly compete on the front. Only ambush and surprise attacks could work.
As for fighting to defend the city, this is simply a joke in front of the Song people's artillery. Who can stop the earth-shaking power? Even if the city is reinforced again, even if the city is built inside and outside, it is only a matter of time before the Song army is captured.
Zhang Jian knew very well what the advantages of the Liao Dynasty were. The strong cavalry and efficient maneuver were their way to win.
In Zhang Jian's opinion, Zhao Zhen's words are not unreasonable. If they retreat to the grassland and develop in a nomadic situation, it is very likely that the Liao Dynasty will rise again. Of course, he does not believe the lies that Su Shi said about the inability to defeat the Han Dynasty. Have you entered the Central Plains few times in history?
If you are willing to give up, you will gain only if you give up. Zhang Jian plans to return to Beijing and explain his thoughts to the Empress Dowager. The current confrontation between the Great Liao and Song is a loss. The more you fight head-on, the more you suffer. It is better to rest and rest, take the grassland as the foundation, and then compete with Song Yi after proper management!
But just when he was about to leave, the Duting Post of the Liao Dynasty was surrounded by the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty. The reason was very good. The Liao Dynasty's spies spyed on military aircraft in the firearm camp in the north of the city and eventually fled to the Liaoduting Post.
This matter is big or small. After all, there is negotiation between the Song and Liao countries, and neither side is willing to fight any further. What is more important is that Zhang Jian is in a hurry to leave, which makes the imperial guards hold on. Beijing is not the place where you are in the Liao Dynasty. You can leave at any time? At least you have to search all of your pavilions and posts!
Zhang Jian didn't expect the situation to be so serious, and he didn't expect the Song people to be so determined. You should know that the Emperor of Song has issued an order to stop the army. Although the order has not been delivered to Zhongjing Road, it has spread in Beijing. At this time, it is not a shame for the Great Liao delegation.
What's more, it is normal to spy on information between the Song and Liao dynasties. If you don't catch someone, you have to search directly? Where can you put the face of the Great Liao? Where can you put the face of the mission?
In fact, the imperial guards didn't want to do it, but they had no choice. They issued military orders on the top of the mountain, so they must find the spies!
The peak of these imperial guards is nothing but the blind Huo Laoqi... Since he was blinded in the Liao Dynasty, Zhao Zhen has always felt that he owed him, so he was transferred to the commander of the four gates of the imperial guards in Beijing.
This is an extremely glorious mission, proving that he is the emperor's confidant minister. Although he is leisurely, he is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. He has given him the city defense of the entire Beijing city, which shows that the responsibility is as heavy as a tremendous amount!
Although he was blind, under the custody of a group of personal soldiers, Huo Laoqi was still alive. He had no problem with normal office work. He was blind, but his heart was bright. The whole city of Beijing was not aware of public security under his management. Moreover, he was originally from the head of the yamen runners and was even more comfortable.
At present, he also lost his calmness and calmness. The reason why he sent troops to surround the Liao Dynasty Duting Post was a last resort. The craftsmen of the Firearms Camp said that losing a portion of explosives was not a distribution, but it was also extremely important!
As soon as he heard the three words "Fire Equipment Camp", Huo Laoqi shivered.
When he was in office, the official specifically told him that something could happen elsewhere, and even if something happened to the palace, the firearms camp would not be allowed to have any mistakes. When he heard that the firearms camp had explosives lost, Huo Laoqi became anxious and mobilized people to find both the city fox and the club rat, and finally found out that it was done by the Liao people.
The firearms camp exploded that day, and the hidden fire shop in the city arrived. Because the fire was too big and there were not enough water dragons in the firearms camp, they were called to put out the fire. It must be that they had mixed up with the Liao people. After a strict investigation, a policeman from the firearms shop could not resist confessing. He accepted a bribe and exchanged his identity with the man...
After the painter's painting, the man's picture appeared quickly. After the whole city was searched, Huo Laoqi was really found. Because Duting Post was no one all year round, there were many people who were seeking life around him. They saw the man on the map and entered Duting Post of the Liao Dynasty!
He thought the evidence was conclusive, so how could Huo Laoqi let Zhang Jian and his party leave? He surrounded Dutingyi and sent someone to report to the official family. He was not stupid and knew why Zhang Jian came in front of him, but what happened now must be heard from heaven.
Zhang Jian stood at the door confronting Song Jun and saw Huo Laoqi saying, "I personally dug up a black hand in the capital, and I will spare your life and let your tiger go back to the mountain!"
Huo Laoqi smiled, pulled down his blindfold, pointed to his hole eyes and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister Zuo. Although these tricks have been dug out, their hearts are bright. Have news about Beijing City been spread to the Liao Dynasty during this period? No?"
"Does the public revenge? My Liao envoy came to discuss peace, and your Emperor of Song still promised, how can you stop us from returning to the court?!"
"Swish..." Huo Laoqi squeezed out a tone from his teeth.
"Avenge your private revenge? Look at the way you look like I am shaking my tail and begging for mercy. Although I can't see it, I am very happy. How is the devastated dog worth my action again!"
"Okay! Then let's take a look! I see who dares to touch me!"
Zhang Jian ordered people to close the door, and Huo Laoqi no longer stopped it. Anyway, the surrounding area was surrounded, and there were authentic water-filled tunnels around Duting Post. It was impossible to dig it away. Under Duting Post was an isolated island, and huge listening urns were placed in the surrounding yard!
Zhang Jian has discovered something is wrong. If there was no big thing, if there was no conclusive evidence, the Song people would not be so arrogant. Huo Laoqi would not have come forward in person. He hasn't seen each other for many years. The blind "old dog" bites even more ruthlessly!
Now he must first figure out what the secret spies had taken from the Song people...... To him, the left prime minister of the Liao Dynasty, the secret spies quickly stood up by themselves, and he also knew that he was here and the Liao delegation could not leave.
When Zhang Jian saw the secret spy carefully put a bag of yellow rough particles in front of him, he looked at it in disbelief and pointed and said, "This... is what you said that caused the earth-shaking thing in the north of Beijing?!"
Obviously Zhang Jian didn't believe it, and the spy smiled helplessly and said, "It's this thing, not only explosion but also poisonous! I fed a dog a little bit..."
"Where is that dog?"
"Dead!"
Hissing... Zhang Jian took a deep breath. What is this thing? It has such amazing power. In his opinion, it is just something like gravel!
Zhang Jian grabbed the spy with one hand, and his nails were almost poked into his flesh, and he let out a low roar from his throat: "Where is the recipe!"
"No……"
"Ahem..." Zhang Jian almost passed away!
