Chapter 89: There are numbers
Since receiving the news that the imperial court transferred him to lead his troops south, Qin Feng passed through the road and sent Sun Wu to lock himself in the study alone and did not come out for half a day.
"Lead the troops south and quell the chaos ......"
It seems that in order to keep Lin'an safe, the imperial court doesn't even want Shaanxi.
"Dongting Yang thieves are in turmoil, eroding several states, Jinghu South Road has been completely occupied by it, and Jinghu North Road is also in danger......"
Sun Wu frowned, paced around in the study, and muttered in his mouth: "I'm the Song Dynasty, why is this, why is this ......"
"The surname Sun, you can hear clearly, I want my mother to go to the south with you to suffer, and there is no door to give up this big family!"
There was the sound of his wife's rude scolding and the sound of throwing things in the front yard, and Sun Wu couldn't help but stop, his brows furrowed even deeper.
He was born in poverty, worked hard to make a name for himself, and walked on thin ice all the way to the position of the envoy of Shaanxi all the way, and all the favors came from the imperial court.
Now that the will of the imperial court has been issued, where will he go?
His wife and he are a poor couple, never abandoning all the way, although they have never studied, they are a little arrogant, but they are kind people with good hearts.
"You said that we just left, what should we do with so many relatives and villagers, do you want to leave them to the party?"
The wife's angry scolding was lowered and began to babble endlessly.
Sun Wu couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. To lead troops south is to abandon the people, wolf-hearted; If he doesn't leave, he will be disrespecting the decree and disobeying the court, and he can't afford to bear this charge.
"Xianggong, this is today's newspaper."
The servant whispered outside the door of the study.
"You little bitch, get out of here, who is in the mood to read through the newspaper!"
Sun Wu habitually waved his sleeves and said impatiently.
"Xianggong, you'd better take a look!"
The voice of the subordinate came in: "There seems to be a movement of the loyal army in the newspaper."
"If you tell you to get out, what nonsense!"
Sun Wu was furious, and now his subordinates are becoming more and more unruly.
"What does he care about the loyal army, the second army of the Central Army, ......"
Sun Wu's voice paused for a moment, he was silent for a moment, he opened the door, still took the newspaper, and then closed the door again.
"For example, the party and the Tibetan people, although they are not of the Chinese race, but between the same heaven and earth, there are those who can know Chinese etiquette and righteousness and are willing to be subjects, and they are no different from the Chinese people......"
The headline on the front page of the newspaper, this "Zheng Xia Wei Wen" made Sun Wu look in a cold sweat, he sat on the chair, stared at the newspaper blankly, and did not speak for a long time.
The Great Song Dynasty wanted to abandon Shaanxi and leave the millions of people in Shaanxi behind. However, the loyal and righteous army wanted to go north to conquer Xia and restore the homeland of the Han and Tang dynasties......
Sun Wu smiled bitterly and shook his head, this is really the biggest irony in the world.
The righteousness of the country is abandoning the people and ignoring it, but a martial artist wants to swim against the current to save the people from suffering.
Thinking about it carefully, the imperial court has no choice. The bandit plague in the south is already in full swing, if the imperial court does not requisition the western army to the south, how can it deal with the attack of the bandits?
Why has this Wang Song never heard of so many bandits!
Sun Wu was so confused that he couldn't help but pick up the newspaper and read it again.
"The gold thieves are fierce soldiers, hoarding hundreds of thousands of dollars on the border of the two rivers, intending to invade the Song ...... south"
If these heinous animals are not burned, killed, and plundered, they will not be able to live?
Sun Wu scolded fiercely in his heart. I can't help but feel sorry for the loyal and righteous army. The loyal and righteous army has to conquer the summer again, and has to deal with the hundreds of thousands of gold people who are like wolves and tigers, and if they are defeated, the people of the loud Song will suffer again.
Thinking of this, he was inexplicably a little ashamed in his heart, and those scenes when he was a child when he was a student appeared in front of his eyes again.
"Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations"
Advance is as
As a native of Shaanxi, he admires Mr. Hengqu, who is also a fellow villager in Shaanxi, and remembers his famous words.
"The old man is safe, the friend believes in it, and the young man is pregnant."
Sun Wu was so drunk that he woke up like a dream, and frequently smiled bitterly: "Sun Wu, you are just a disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous fool now!" You're not even as good as those rough guys on the side!"
In vain, he studied a belly of sage articles, with full feelings for his family and country, and in the end, he was defeated on the battlefield, and he abandoned the people for the sake of officials, and he was aggrieved, which is really indescribable.
In the first battle of Shaanxi, the Western Army collapsed, and his subordinate Qin Fenglu Western Army also suffered more than half of the casualties, but this "death" means to escape. He also knew that he was not the material to lead troops to fight.
If it weren't for his civilian background, I'm afraid he would be the same as Zhao Zhe on Huanqing Road, and his head would have fallen to the ground.
If there is a chance, it is better to dismiss the official, anyway, the savings of this life are enough to spend the second half of your life.
"Xianggong, there is an old man visiting outside the door."
Just when Sun Wu was thinking hard, the voice of the subordinate sounded out of place.
"The deceased?"
Sun Wu couldn't help but be stunned, and asked, "Didn't you ask who it was?"
"Xianggong, someone came to say, you will know when you see him."
With a "squeak", the door of the study was opened, and Sun Wu walked out, frowned and said, "Lead the way in front of the head, I want to see, who is the old man?"
After passing through the yamen lobby, Liu Ziyu looked at the dilapidated but familiar hometown, and felt a little emotional.
A few years ago, he was still in high spirits here, wanting to show his strength and make a career. Now he is in the rivers and lakes, cut off from everything in this court.
It took less than half an hour for him to accept Liu Qi's invitation. At a time when Wang Song was frequently using troops in Lianghe, he had no reason to refuse this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
However, before he left for Hebei, he still had one more thing to do, that is, to persuade his former colleague, Qin Fengjing, to envoy Sun Wu, hoping that he could stay and deal with the Xia people together.
His two friends, Song Yan and Yu Ping, had already gone back to recruit the old troops, as well as the various township soldiers on the border fortress, and Liu Qi had promised them to form another army and go north with the army to conquer Xia.
Liu Xi is Liu Qi's brother, so he doesn't have to worry about it. The Shaanxi Xuanfu of the imperial court made Wu Jue far away in Sichuan, and he couldn't reach the whip, and he didn't believe that Wu Jue would dare to move troops against the loyal and righteous army at this time.
Only this Qin Feng Jing made Sun Wu a dilemma, and now he is in a dilemma, and there are tens of thousands of elites of the Western Army under his command. With his old friends, how can he try it well.
"Does the Honorable Driver want to see me?"
Sun Wu walked into the lobby, and there was a dim environment inside, so he didn't recognize the person in front of him for a while.
"Sun Xianggong, isn't it true that you don't even recognize the foolish brother?"
Liu Ziyu laughed, stepped forward and bowed: "Sun Xianggong, you are polite!"
Sun Wu looked carefully, patted the table, and said in surprise: "Okay, you Liu Yanxiu, how did you appear here, didn't you say that you were relegated to the south?"
Insert a sentence, it's really good, it's worth pretending, after all, you can cache and read aloud offline!
In the past, Liu Ziyu was in a high position and was pampered, which was naturally much different from the way he was now in and out of the side, and it was no wonder that he didn't recognize it at a glance.
"The Huns are not destroyed, how can I survive in steal!"
The two sat down separately, and Liu Ziyu said with a straight face: "On top of the side plug, there are still so many people suffering, the foolish brother naturally wants to do his part for my Han people, and please don't laugh at Brother Sun Xian!"
"Sure enough, it's still the high-minded and jealous Liu Ziyu, you haven't changed at all!"
Sun Wu nodded lightly and said with relief: "Brother Liu, you really haven't changed. However, you didn't come here today just to see your little brother, did you? ”
Liu Ziyu's appearance, he has already guessed five or six points. It's just that he doesn't know which side this brother represents.
"What Brother Xian said is good, Brother Fool came today to persuade you to stay and deal with the Xia people together!"
Liu Ziyu's face was solemn, and he said word by word.
Sun Wu was shocked, raised the newspaper in his hand, and said softly: "Brother Liu, you are not really Wang Song's lobbyist as this newspaper says, right?"
Liu Ziyu shook his head and said, "Yes and no." Brother Fool is about to leave for Hebei, the Jin people and the Loyal and Righteous Army are facing off in the north, and the big war is about to break out, Brother Fool doesn't want to miss this grand event!"
Sun Wu shook his head gently, looked at Liu Ziyu in front of him carefully, and said in a deep voice:
"Brother Liu, you are a famous family, and your father is an important minister of the imperial court, why should you commit yourself to Wang Song and commit such a rebellious act. The official family and the court treat me with the grace of heaven and earth, how can you and I abandon the official family and the court and ignore it, and be this disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous person! ”
Sun Wu's face became solemn, and he continued: "Brother Liu, I know what you mean, you are trying to persuade me to join Wang Song. I'm going to disappoint you, though. I will never be sorry for the official family and the court to be this disloyal and unfilial person!"
Liu Ziyu laughed secretly in his heart. Since it came to this, he could only say a spade.
"I don't care how your grandson Xianggong is loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, and I can't care about it!"
Liu Ziyu's face turned cold, and his voice became heavier.
"What I want to say is, please don't harm the people of Qin Fenglu. You are Qin Feng's envoy, as a parent, you have to have your own conscience!"
Liu Ziyu's words made Sun Wu, who had been depressed for many days, burst into a rage, and all of them broke out at once.
"What can I do with the holy decree of the imperial court!"
His face was flushed, the green tendons on his forehead were exposed, and he roared loudly: "If I resist the decree and disrespect, it will be a great rebellion, disloyalty and unfilial piety, and if I go south, I will be ruthless and unrighteous, and abandon the people!" How do you make me choose?"
He roared, sat back in his chair, and with a heavy flick, the teacup on the table flew out, shattered, and fell to the ground full of tea leaves and tea.
"If you leave with your troops, you will be a sinner for the ages!"
Liu Ziyu also took the case, and shouted angrily: "You have been an official for so many years, and you have made enough, should you also do something for the people, and should you also consider the way back!"
Liu Ziyu was furious, he still underestimated these officials. They keep saying that they are loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and it is not that they are unprofitable and cannot afford to be early, and their interests come first.
"I have already talked to Liu Qi, and he is now the envoy of the Loyal and Righteous Army."
Liu Ziyu suppressed the anger in his chest, and said in a deep voice: "As long as you hand over the military power, you can continue to be your Qin Feng Road Envoy, he can ensure that you are rich and prosperous for a lifetime, do you think this arrangement is appropriate?"
Sun Wu rolled his eyes, and immediately quieted down, becoming calm and relaxed, and the anger and generosity just now were gone.
"The surname is Sun, what are you still thinking about!"
Sun Wu was bowing his head in contemplation, and his wife ran out of the back hall.
"Our Sun family is not short of food and drink, Liu Daguan has given you such a good official position, what are you still hesitating about! If you dare to go south, I'll be done with you!"
She twisted her fat body, came to Sun Wu, grabbed him, and came to Liu Ziyu together.
"Liu Daguan, don't worry, I agreed for my family's officials!"
Her fat face was full of smiles, and she continued: "The prince is very kind, and the slave family is unforgettable. I also asked Liu Daguan to speak well in front of Wang Xianggong, don't blame my Xianggong. ”
She turned her head, her face darkening.
"Official, we promised Liu Daguan and Wang Xianggong, do you say yes or no?"
Sun Wu looked at the stunned Liu Ziyu and said with a wry smile: "Brother Liu, just according to my wife, I agreed, I agreed!"
Liu Ziyu walked out of the yamen lobby, and then his face changed back. In the face of strength, everyone has already counted.
