Chapter 17: The Forgotten Man

"The Liao people have been to the Bianguan six times, what secrets are there for them, have you seen the newly repaired city wall? It used to be a place where the people's ox carts came in and outβ€”uncle, hahaβ€”" Lang Tan said indignantly.

"Didn't you say that the partial pass is a gold lock and a silver pass?"

"Pushing forward 30 years may be, sitting on the Yellow River, facing the Biguan River, the left is the remaining veins of Taihang Mountain, and the right is where the dragon's eye of Wangwu Mountain is located. Even in Feng Shui, it is also an excellent good Feng Shui. ”

Xiaolin frowned and asked, "Does the marshal know the situation here?" If the partial pass is not enough, our strategy will have no chance of success, and if it becomes a hard shock to the Liao people at the partial pass, it is better to hide behind the Yan' 'Gate' Pass to consume the enemy's strength. ”

Lang Tan pointed to his 'chest' with his thumb and said, "Do you think I look like a waste?" ”

"Who dares to say that Langjiegu is a waste?"

Lang Tan smiled: "Since Lang Jiegu is not a waste, why can't the big marshal use the partial pass?" Half a year is enough time for me to renovate this city, I have been lonely for a long time, and it no longer makes any sense for me to kill a few Liao people who are fighting in the grass valley, since my war knife began to drink blood, this time is the time when it is the hungriest and thirsty. ”

Lang Tan patted the long knife on his back, and smiled very presumptuously, Xiaolin could even see that there were many eyes peeking at the arrogant Lang Tan in the gaps of the 'door' panels on both sides of the street.

Lang Tan looked left and right and smiled: "They are wondering why I haven't started to run away yet!" Hahaha, grandpa has to make a person to show the people this time, the generals of the Great Song Dynasty can not only make money. can escape, and there are those who can fight, 50,000 Liao thieves just sent me to save the hearts of the people with my grandfather! ”

Xiaolin beat Lang Tan's chest, and then followed him back to the barracks, Bo Bo was eating alone with a big bowl, eating Xili snoring, his favorite food was noodles, and he liked mung bean cake for a while, since the pastries in Su Shi's hand were eaten by him, he began to like noodles again. What's more, there are two oily poached eggs lying in today's noodles.

Two eagles crouched honestly on top of a dry branch and picked their beaks for 'hair'. Bo Bo has already fed them with fresh sheep 'meat', it is common knowledge that hunting eagles cannot be fed, but reconnaissance eagles must be fed to their heart's content, otherwise it will fly well in the sky. What should I do if I suddenly find a rabbit flying down to hunt?

The vigorous preservation zΓ i is to ensure that these eagles fly into the sky when they have nothing to do. Burn off excess fat. Lest they grow too 'fat', it is their instinct for beasts to store fat, and it is good in this war on fat. Bo Bo is the winner.

Lang Tan dreamed of owning a falcon, so when he came back, he went to Hai Dongqing.

"Don't dream, these Hai Dongqing belong to the Great Song Dynasty military, it can't belong to you alone, but there are still six Hai Dongqing in Madame's place, you can ask Madame for them after you return to the capital." Xiaolin said after taking a large bowl of noodles and taking two bites in his mouth.

"What's the difference?"

"The difference is very big, according to the second lady, the eldest lady thinks that this thing is very 'fine' and expensive, and it is the magic weapon for my Great Song Dynasty army to win, so she personally fed the little Hai Dongqing, and listened to the second lady say that when she came to the goose 'door' to close, those Hai Dongqing were chubby like quails...... So it's not a big deal for Dashuai to give you one. ”

Bo Bo seriously explained: "Hai Dongqing is a bird of prey, since childhood, we must cultivate their ferocity 'nature', if you just let Hai Dongqing eat and drink enough every day without training, soon, these Hai Dongqing will be no different from 'chickens', it is estimated that those little Hai Dongqing have become 'chickens'." ”

Lang Tan reluctantly left Hai Dongqing to eat beside Bo Bo, and after picking up the rice bowl, he suddenly smiled and said: "There is a 'chicken' that looks like Hai Dongqing, and I don't urge it." ”

In the afternoon, Xiaolin came back and told Yun Zheng what he had seen and heard in the side pass.

Yun Zheng nodded and said: "Lang Tan doesn't have much 'worry' about it, if there is a real commander in the 15th Route Army in Jingxi, I dare to pack a ticket, this person must be Lang Tan!"

Jiang Zhe has been training the army for many years, so he has not been on the battlefield much, he is an excellent staff officer, but not a real commander, Wu Jie's 'sex' character is defective, it may be that when he was in Shuzhong, he read the best, so his nature' has a kind of pedantic atmosphere, although he looks the most mature now, but he is the most reassuring person. Chu Dazhi is a purely defensive 'sex' soldier, he has self-knowledge, and he is not as good as the three people in front of him in the flexibility of the military formation, so he simply gave up the attack, and specialized in the 'door' to study how to defend, and as a result, he also studied some 'door' roads, if the Great Song Dynasty wants to find someone to guard the most important city pass, I think it must be Chu Dazhi.

Back then, I waited for thirteen people to do something for the Great Song Dynasty in high spirits, but now there are only five of us left, and many people have gradually 'lost' themselves in the process, which is really sighing when I think about it! ”

After Xiaolin sat down, he poured himself a cup of tea and took a sip and said, "Are you sorry for Zhou Tong?" ”

Yun Zheng said with a smile: "There is nothing to regret, he didn't leave at the beginning, and he will leave now, his 'sex' personality is the most changeable, and changeable people can't become real commanders, so you just have to look at it to know that the famous generals of all dynasties are all tenacious people, and the military has never been a flexible profession, only paranoia can lead the army to the final victory." ”

"What are you?" Xiaolin planned to listen to Yun Zheng's evaluation of himself.

"What am I? I'm an extremely clever liar, or rather an extremely clever cheater. After Yun Zheng finished saying this, he looked at Xiaolin who was confused with a smile, and he didn't explain, his truth, no one except Yun Er could understand it.

"You just said that the original guard of the border seems to be still in the local area, tell me your reason, I sent someone to check this person, traced to Xianzhou and he disappeared like smoke, I thought this person should be dead, with a large number of treasures, but with a lot of unreliable subordinates, no matter how you look at him, he is asking for his own death, since you said that this guy called Hua Tianshou is still alive, you must give me a direction of recourse." Yun Zheng was reluctant to talk to Xiao Lin about his hidden 'privacy', so he naturally led the topic to Hua Tianshou, the former guard of the partial pass.

"For many years, I have been doing errands of recourse to people, and many times my feelings seem to be very effective, this time I feel that this person is not dead, he must be hiding somewhere, this feeling is very strong, my intuition tells me, I must dig this person out, otherwise I will be very uneasy." Xiaolin sat up straight and said in a deep voice.

"You say this rat will have an impact on my upcoming battle plan? Why is he? Yun Zheng thought about it for a while, but he didn't find any connection between the two.

Lang Tan seems to be a rough person on the surface, but in fact, this person is as careful as a hair, how many times he was the first to capture the best fighter, there are not many such people in this world, so Yun Zheng trusts Lang Tan very much.

Xiao Lin shook his head as if he was trying to get rid of his doubts, and seeing that Yun Zheng didn't seem to find anything wrong, he had to let go of the idea of chasing this person, stood up and said: "I'll go and continue to arrange things in Huangjiazhai, you don't look good, sleep a little longer, it's a luxury to want to sleep in a few days." ”

This sentence made Yun Zheng's old face red, and he feigned anger: "Just do your own thing, and don't worry about the affairs of the military master." ”

Xiaolin smiled dumbly, and he didn't know how to get out of the military tent.

Ge Qiuyan put his head out from behind the curtain and said aggrievedly: "We are very restrained, why does everyone blame me?" ”

"They're jealous, right! Very jealous ......"

At the end of April, the wheat seedlings were already a foot high, and the wheat planted by the Song people was less than half the height of the wheat planted by the farmers in later generations.

The time when there is no harvest is the hardest, so there are always people wandering around hoping to find an errand to eat.

This year's weather, the rain is very good, if the sky does not rain when the wheat seedlings are 'flowering', this year's harvest is almost a foregone conclusion, of course, it would be better if there is no military disaster.

For the common people, the military disaster is a more terrible disaster than drought, flood, and locust plague, and if this place becomes a battlefield, it is foreseeable that a hundred and ten miles of land will become a no-man's land.

Neither of the two sides of the 'warring' war cares about the people who have survived in this land for generations, as long as they start a 'war', one will eat the enemy, and the other will be strong and clear, neither of which has considered how the people should survive.

Therefore, the people began to help the old and the young to give up their upcoming crops, leave their homes to avoid the military disaster in the mountains, and their cries reached Yun Zheng's ears, which made him sleepless all night.

At dawn, he had already made up his mind, no matter what, he must end this war provoked by the emperor's willfulness before the wheat is ripe, at least, the war near the Yan'men Pass must be over, otherwise in the autumn, countless refugees will drag themselves down, and at that time, what will be talked about recovering Yanyun.

This time, the power of Cui Da and those merchants can no longer be used, they supply the grain needed for the first two wars, and there are already officials who impeached Yun Zheng's subordinates for why they don't eat the imperial grain?

This accusation is very 'yin' poisonous, Yun Zheng naturally doesn't care, but Cui Da and they have almost no power to fight back in the face of the power of the government, Di Qing told Yun Zheng that he can use Shangjia to help the Yun family make money, but he can't rely on Shangjia's power to fight.

State affairs and family affairs must be distinguished, and the only person who does not need to be clear is the emperor!
