During this time, Liu Qi bought and sold in Yan'an and Suide, while consolidating the border defense with the Western Xia, while exterminating the bandits suspected of colluding with the Jin people and Xia people, Yan'an and Suide were the great security, and the local military and civilians said that General Liu went to northern Shaanxi to help the country defend the land, so Guo Hao came to the Houzhou father and elder persuaded Guo Haomo to be the enemy of Liu Qi. Guo Hao said in his heart: "The people's will is like this, and it cannot be violated." He went to the camp of the Luochuan Jingyuan Army to meet Qu Duan and asked Qu Duan why he had not entered the army for a long time.

Qu Duan said angrily: "Entering the army? How to enter the army? When I arrived in Luochuan, the Xia people heard that the Hedong army had entered Shaanxi, and they were about to take the opportunity to pick up the cheap, one of which actually broke into the south bank of the Dali River. Isn't that a combination with the Xia people? If I had entered the army at that time, would the fathers of Yan Yan and Suide still be able to tolerate me? The whole army had to mutiny. Now although Liu Qi has driven the Xia people out, but he is not fortified in the south of Yan'an Mansion, let me sentry in and out, my people in the past not only did not leave a difficulty, but also prepared tea and dinner along the way to entertain, and what to say, "I Liu Qi only beat the Hu people, not the Han people, Qu Duan is coming, let him come, I don't fight with him, if he must fight, I stretch my neck and let him kill." My men wept bitterly when they heard this, and now my Hou cavalry did not want to come back after Ganquan, and the soldiers of the two armies met at the border and called each other brothers, and they did not distinguish between the enemy and me at all—they thought I did not know, hum! Actually, where do I not know? It's just pretending to be confused, otherwise the military law will deal with it, and this Luo Chuan doesn't know how many heads he will lose! Guo Jingluo, these sons and daughters under my command will never be soft when they meet the Jin people, but if you want them to fight Liu Qi and Li Yongqi, I'm afraid they won't be able to do it! ”

Guo Hao said: "There are naturally difficulties in difficulties, but if you don't enter the army, how can you explain to Zhang Xuanfu?" ”

Qu Duan bowed his head for a moment and said: "The hearts of the people in northern Shaanxi are no longer in my place now, Liu Qi is not defended on the surface, but I expect that he is actually loose on the outside and tight on the inside, if our army advances lightly, not only will it not be cheap, but it will arouse public indignation." Now I can only promise Zhang Xuanfu to keep Dunzhou, and promise not to let Liu Qinan take the next step. As for taking northern Shaanxi, then I can't do it anyway. ”

Guo Hao sneered: "Speaking of which, you are still afraid of Liu Qi!" ”

Qu Duan was dumbfounded and said angrily: "Guo Jingluo, you have also led soldiers, don't you know what to rely on to fight?" The soldiers have no intention of working hard, how can this battle be fought? ”

Guo Hao said: "What's the use of you telling me? It's time to talk to Zhang Xuanfu! ”

Qu Duan snorted and said, "Okay! I'll go see Zhang Xuanfu! If he thinks Liu Qi is easy to fight, let him fight! ”

Guo Hao nodded and said, "General Qu is really loyal and brave, it's a pity, it's a pity." ”

Qu Duan saw that he suddenly changed his tone, and said strangely: "What is a pity? ”

Guo Hao said: "It's a pity that as soon as you enter Tongzhou, there is no place to die!" ”

Qu Duan felt a chill down his spine when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Guo Jingluo, this has to be explained!" ”

Guo Hao said: "Ming people don't say dark words!" General Qu, Li Yongqi's son Li Shifu came to Luochuan to look for you, right? ”

Qu Duan was originally sitting on a tiger skin chair, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but stand up and said, "How do you know?" Then he remembered that his words were very wrong, and hurriedly said: "Li Shifu has been here, but I have never promised him anything!" ”

Guo Hao heaved and said: "You didn't promise him anything, why didn't you mention this matter in the battle report and letter to Zhang Xuanfu?" ”

Cold sweat oozed from Qu Duan's forehead, and he lowered his head before he said: "This kind of thing under the melon field and plums, I originally planned to treat it as if it hadn't happened to him...... "Brother Guo, you and I have a relationship, you have to help me explain this matter!" I really didn't promise Li Yongqi anything! ”

Guo Hao shook his head and said, "If you make it clear, I won't use it." Brother Qu, do you know who got the news this time? ”

Qu Duan asked, "Did Zhang Xuanfu send someone to spy on me?" ”

"It's not." Guo Hao said: "It's Wang Shu." ”

Qu Duan was stunned for a long time, and then roared angrily: "This rotten Confucian! This traitor! Since he knew that Wang Shu was the obstruction of this matter, he no longer had illusions, his eyes flashed, and he said: "Guo Jingluo, this is the case, what should you do with me?" ”

Qu Duan is a person with the temperament of a warlord, when he was a subordinate of Wang Shu, he still dared to threaten him by force and almost killed him, how Guo Hao didn't know who he was, seeing him like this, he knew that as long as one was not careful, the other party would immediately act. Quduan's order is extremely strict, and in his army, the soldiers know that there is Quduan, but they don't know that there is a son of heaven. Guo Hao did not hesitate, and took out Zhang Jun's signed order to Qu Duan and said: "Zhang Xuanfu's order is here, but I ask General Qu to teach me how to deal with it!" ”

Qu Duan took it, saw it clearly, and knew that Zhang Jun really had the intention of moving him, so he raised his eyebrows and said: "Zhang Jun!" White-faced scholars, sure enough, only know about national affairs! He tore up the document on the spot, pulled out a knife and said to Guo Hao: "Guo Jingluo, today's matter, it is not that I have the intention to betray the Song Dynasty, but that the Great Song Dynasty will not allow me!" I Qu Duan has been upright all my life, and I only want to go to the frontier to fight against the Jin people and Xia people, and I don't want to kill Liu Qi on the border of Yanyan! He thrust the knife into the case and said, "If Guo Jingluo also thinks that Qu Duan is guilty, he will use this knife to take Qu Duan's head and go to Zhang Jun's tent to receive the reward!" As he spoke, he stared at Guo Hao to see how he responded.

Guo Hao pulled out the knife, Qu Duan's face changed slightly, Guo Hao had already said: "The general is unwilling to kill Liu Qi, am I, Guo Hao, willing to kill a good general in vain for a chaotic life?" ”

Qu Duan was overjoyed and said: "Guo Jingluo is really noble! ”

Guo Hao returned the knife to Qu Duan and said, "After today, what does Brother Qu want to do?" ”

Qu Duan groaned: "I heard that the Jin people are in a hurry again, and I want to ask for a document for customs clearance from Liu Qi, so I will go to Taiyuan to fight the gold people!" If Brother Guo doesn't give up, it's better to stay and be a prisoner! ”

Guo Hao said: "The Hedong army has a lot of food, Cao Guangbi is strategic, this time he only sent less than 10,000 people, presumably there is still a large army in Hedong to support the war." If we want to help him defend the east of the river, instead of running thousands of miles to help him fight, it is better to stay here and let his western and southern fronts worry. ”

Qu Duanxi said: "What Guo Jingluo said is very true! ”

The two discussed and established, Guo Hao entered Yan'an Mansion to see Liu Qi, and invited him to discuss matters in the Luochuan army, the generals may be a plan, Guo Hao smiled and said: "If you are afraid of a plan, you will leave me here, if Qu Duan has a different heart, you will kill me to avenge General Liu!" ”

Liu Qi said with a smile: "Since I dare to enter Shaanxi lightly, I will hand over my life to my father and elder in Shaanxi." If you want to see me, I will go. If he dares to kill me, he will have someone to avenge me in the future, so why should he take hostages! Together with Li Yongqi, he only brought a dozen horsemen to the Quduan army with Guo Hao.

The reason why Qu Duan and Guo Hao invited Liu Qi to come was actually to probe his boldness, and when they saw him come as promised, they were impressed in their hearts.

Liu Qi said: "I didn't come here to covet the land of Shaanxi, just to ask Zhang Jun and echo the two things of Hedong." Meet the general today, but swear to resist Huma and protect Huaxia! Never lose! ”

Qu Duan and Guo Hao both said: "These two things are exactly what I wish in life!" "On the spot, I swore a blood oath and was willing to be tempered.

At the moment, the two armies were in one place, and the soldiers were all jubilant, Liu Qi led the troops to advance slowly, and Qu Duan said: "The soldiers are noble and fast, and marching like this is equivalent to making Zhang Jun prepared." ”

Liu Qi said: "Zhang Jun's command is all from Shaanxi, if the two armies collide, you and I will die." But I expected that Zhang Jun would flee when he heard that we were waiting for the combined army to go south. I waited for him to walk slower, and gave him the strength to escape. ”

Qu Duan was impressed when he heard this.

The change of banner of Jingyuan soldiers really shook Qinchuan for 800 miles, and Zhang Jun was afraid that he would be attacked by Liu Qi and Chong Yansong from the north and south, and fled west overnight. Liu Qi and Chong Yansong followed him step by step. Zhang Jun fled to Lintong and was about to enter Chang'an, when the sentry in front of him came to report: The head of Chang'an City in Jingzhao Mansion was also full of Chinese character flags. It turned out that Liu Xi borrowed 500 light soldiers from Chong Yansong after crossing the Wei River, and he wanted to gather people and horses in the summer side, but who knew that when Chang'an City was down, the guards of Jingzhao Mansion who had not yet received the news came out of the city to greet him and inquire about the battle situation on the front line. Liu Xi was in danger in a flash, and the false message of the general ordered the seizure of Chang'an's military power and defense echoed Chong Yansong. The Chong and Liu families have a very high reputation in the northwest and have a wide range of contacts, so Liu Xi was able to make things happen in the midst of change.

When Zhang Jun arrived in Lintong, Liu Xi had not yet gained a firm foothold in Chang'an, but the successive defections of Li Yanxian, Qu Duan, Guo Hao and others had turned Zhang Jun into a frightened bird, and Liu Qi and Chong Yansong were behind him, and he did not dare to enter the city at the moment, let alone attack the city, and led the soldiers and horses to retreat straight to Fufeng and Fengxiang.

Liu Qi and Chong Yansong met in Chang'an. After the generals met, it was decided that Chong Yansong would lead the Weinan military to prevent Zhang Jun from counterattacking; Liu Qi was in charge of the Weibei military and guarded against the Jin and Xia people; Guo Hao temporarily replaced the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion to appease the domestic Shinong industry and commerce; Deng Su was responsible for the level transportation and transshipment, and the surplus was insufficient. It also spread the whole territory of Shaanxi, telling the intention of resisting Jin Baohua. Soon, Qu Duan won Yuanzhou, Jingzhou, and Weizhou, and Liu Xi smoothly entered Xizhou, and although the Xia Bian Prefecture troops north and west of Xizhou refused to return to Han for a while, they also promised to remain neutral under the coercion and temptation of Liu Qi and Chong Yansong.

Zhang Jun still had many soldiers and generals, and he still had the strength to fight, but at this time, the soldiers and civilians of Shaanxi were unwilling to fight again, and soon Jiankang's policy changed, and Zhang Jun's various counterattack strategies had to be abandoned halfway.
