Chapter 251

Therefore, if the Liao army either pretended to be a grain and grass team, it really intercepted the grain and grass of the Song army.

In comparison, it is better to have the former.

"Xiao Zhenning lost ten explosive crossbows, but he didn't get any benefits from General Ling, so he naturally had to find some back elsewhere." Chu Dingjiang has seen many large and small battles to destroy the country, and he didn't take this matter to heart at all.

His composure also calmed him down and watched the war unfold.

At dawn, there was finally news from the Yongning Army.

Things were as Chu Dingjiang expected, after the Liao army entered the city, it burned and looted with lightning speed, and quickly retreated before the surrounding defenders could react. Five thousand people were taken captive, and many gold, silver, and jade silks. The captives were all young women and children.

The angry Yongning army pursued the Liao State with all its might, defeated the Liao army, and recaptured the captives.

When several people in the Crane Control Army heard this, Li Qingzhi was overjoyed and said, "It's really happy!" ”

General Yongning's name is Liu Yun, and he is the most powerful general besides Ling Ziyue.

This battle ignited the confidence of the Song army, and Ling Ziyue and Liu Yun played together, requesting to attack the Liao State.

Although the generals are not subject to the orders of the foreign monarchs, the Great Song Dynasty has been fighting passively all these years, and the two generals want to take advantage of this opportunity to strike hard at the Liao army.

However, this blood sent to Bianjing changed the taste.

Seeing that he had won the battle, he finally breathed a bad breath, and was in a good mood, and convened the ministers to discuss the counterattack, but when the important ministers of the court were divided into three factions, one faction was the main guard, and they were very reluctant to Ling Ziyue and Liu Yun's approach, not only did not agree to fight, but also insinuated that Ling Ziyue and Liu Yun joined forces. Not only the Hebei West Road, but also the entire north is under the control of these two people, and the other faction is the main attacker, feeling that the Great Song Dynasty is the upper state of the Celestial Empire, and it is time to always tolerate and retreat, it is time to show its might, and there is also a faction with a neutral attitude.

The enthusiasm that had just burned in the saint was poured with a basin of cold water, and gradually cooled down, and the suspicion began to attack again.

At this time, someone impeached Liu Yun again. One is that negligence and preparedness made Zhending Mansion sacked by the Liao army, and the other is that he privately led a large army to chase into the Liao State and left his post without permission.

There are also people who defend him, the main duty of the Yongning Army is to guard the Zhending Mansion for a generation, and the Zhending Mansion was sacked by the Liao army, and Liu Yun led the troops to pursue it was also dutiful.

In the study. Needle drops can be heard.

The smoke curled in the incense burner, and a middle-aged man in a yellow robe sat in front of the desk with his hands closed and his eyes closed, and there was a fold on the table, which was Ling Ziyue's share of urging grain and grass.

Suddenly. He slowly opened his eyes, raised his hand to the fold, and tapped his fingers lightly, "Go and ask for the Taifu, the Taiwei, the Zaifu, and the Privy Envoy." ”

"Yes." The eunuch bowed and retreated.

Not much. Four ministers arrived.

"Sit down." The Emperor said.

"Thank you, Holy Grace, to sit down."

The four of them saluted and took their seats.

The emperor said, "Take General Ling's recitals and show them to the four Aiqing." ”

"Yes." The eunuch went over and took the fold on the table and handed it to the master on the upper left.

After the four of them looked at it in turn. Only then did the emperor speak, "What do the four Aiqing think of General Ling and General Liu joining forces to attack the Liao State?" ”

One is the twist and turn of urging food, and the other is attacking Liao, which is basically an unrelated matter, what does it mean to put this together?

These people are all old elves, and they are silent before they think it through.

Seeing that no one answered, the emperor had no choice but to name him, "Hua Zaifu, you speak first." ”

Hua Zaifu got up and said, "The Great Song Dynasty is the state of the Heavenly Dynasty, whether to fight or not is all in the holy thought, and the subordinates obey the holy will." ”

In the final analysis, he didn't care about the soldiers, he just participated in the opinions, not to mention that the Holy Lord called them here today was no longer just to discuss the question of whether to fight or not, it was obviously dissatisfied with Ling Ziyue.

Hua Jaefu didn't know that Lu Dao himself had already been put on the list of suspicions, and this kind of thing could still not participate in the opinions without participating in the opinions.

The emperor was not happy or angry, "Sit down and say, nervous about something." ”

The emperor is not very good, but his kung fu to nourish his qi is very good, and he can't be happy and angry when he is idle.

The lieutenant leaned over slightly, and suddenly said something else, "Saint, General Liu won the battle, but it was also because of his own negligence, and he couldn't turn a blind eye to it because he had made military achievements, and the minister thought that he should still be punished." ”

The emperor was silent for a moment and asked, "How does the captain think he should be punished?" ”

When everyone heard the accent of this, they immediately understood that the Holy One had to deal with internal worries first.

This internal worry is not Liu Yun, but Ling Ziyue.

Now there is no one to replace Ling Ziyue for a while, so he can't move for a while, and punishing Liu Yun is just killing chickens to show monkeys.

Hua Zaifu thought that the saint still trusted Liu Yun more, and this person was the best candidate to succeed Ling Ziyue, so the saint should not really want to punish him......

"This ......" the lieutenant had not yet thought of.

Taifu said, "The minister thinks that General Liu won the battle, which boosted the momentum of the soldiers on the border, and could not be punished lightly, which chilled the hearts of the soldiers." ”

The emperor frowned slightly.

Taifu's words changed, "But as the Taiwei said, General Liu is at fault, so the saint might as well recall him back to Beijing, reprimand him in person, and punish him for his fortune." ”

"No!" The privy envoy said, "Holy Lord, you can't leave the generals for a moment, it is when the war is tight, and you must not recruit General Liu to return to the court!" ”

There was silence in the room.

"I can't move this, I can't move that, I'm really going outside, and I'm helpless!" The emperor sighed, "Go back, think about it, and come up with a way for me tomorrow!" ”

The four of them got up and saluted, and retreated one after another.

The study was quiet again, and the emperor took out a secret letter, looked at it for a while, and even the eunuch who was waiting for him was thrown out.

"Come out."

As soon as the emperor's voice fell, two black-clothed men fell from the beams of the house.

"I heard that the Crane Control Army has made a lot of efforts for General Ling this time." The emperor looked coldly at the thin man in black at the head.

"Holy forgiveness." He immediately knelt down on one knee, "The Crane Army is loyal to the Holy Lord, loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, and its contribution is also to be loyal to the Holy Lord." ”

Another man in black behind him also knelt down.

"Get up. I just asked casually. The Emperor rubbed the secret letter and said, "Recall them and assign them to the newly established Long Wuwei, and directly obey my orders in the future." The original Long Wuwei was renamed Yuhewei. ”

"Yes!" The man in black commanded.

"General Ling suggested that the Crane Army be incorporated into the army, what do you think?" The Emperor asked suddenly.

If they can be incorporated into the army, they will end this disgraceful life, and the horse leather shroud can at least live like a person!

The man in black had been lowering his eyes all the time, and he couldn't see the expression on the emperor's face, but he knew that his mood was definitely not very good. (To be continued......)

PS: I rubbed and was a few seconds late.
