Chapter 020: Nationalist

On the vertical arch hall, Zhao Huan paced around uneasily, and suddenly, he stopped, his face was full of anxiety, and asked loudly: "Master Zhang, what is the appearance, why hasn't Wang Song entered the palace yet?"

No wonder he was in a hurry. Seeing that Wang Song's army had the upper hand and had slowly retreated towards the south city gate, he took the first step back to the palace and waited for the arrival of the savior of this big tree.

Who knew that waiting left and right, almost an hour had passed, and there was no news of Wang Song entering the city. In case the reinforcements of the Jurchens came, and the two armies attacked from the east and west, Wang Songbu not only could not take advantage, but also did not even know whether they could enter the city safely.

You must know that Wang Songbu is the last hope of the Great Song Dynasty, and once Wang Song and his loyal army are severely damaged, the defense of Tokyo City will face a dilemma.

Sun Fu was also in a cold sweat, he wiped his sweat, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has asked people to wait in Nanxunmen and Xuanhuamen, as soon as there is news that the loyal and righteous army has entered the city, the sergeant will immediately come to report it, and the official family will be a little restless."

He made a big mistake, so that the gate of Xuanhua Gate was opened, and the Jurchens almost broke it. If Wang Song's loyal army could not enter the city, then the defense of Tokyo City would still be a problem. His personal life and death honor and disgrace are small, but the safety of Tokyo City is a big matter.

Uncle Zhang stepped forward and bowed solemnly: "Your Majesty, when we wait to return, the Jurchens have been defeated and blood is flowing like a river, General Wang should soon bring his subordinates into the city, Your Majesty should be more patient!"

Uncle Zhang arranged the reception on the city wall at night, and his son guarded the city head, and came back to heal himself, after all, the years are not forgiving.

Zhao Huan glanced at Zhang Shuye, who was covered in injuries, frowned, and finally didn't say a word of reproach.

In the imperial history, Qin Hui took a step forward and bowed solemnly: "Your Majesty, Wang Song is just a martial artist, and coming to King Qin is also his courtier's duty, and he is loyal." Your Majesty should not be so uneasy, for a martial artist, it is quite inappropriate. Your Majesty thinks twice. ”

Qin Hui's voice did not fall, and Hu Shunzhi, the imperial historian next to him, also participated: "Your Majesty, Wang Song's army is a rough man, it is incumbent on you to rescue Tokyo City, Your Majesty can reward you generously, you don't have to be so grandiose, see a martial artist in the main hall, this move is a loss of the majesty of the Son of Heaven, Your Majesty is cautious."

Zhao Huan was already a little crazy at this time, and his obsession with Wang Song as the savior of the Great Song Dynasty made him unable to bear the doubts of others about Wang Song.

If it weren't for Wang Song, Tokyo City would have fallen, he would be a lost dog, how could he continue to be his Ninety-Five Emperor in a grand manner.

"Qin Zhongcheng, Hu Yushi, you two are righteous and righteous."

Zhao Huan sneered: "I let the two of you go out of the city, maybe kill a soldier and come back for me to see?"

Qin Hui didn't speak, and his face didn't change, as if nothing had happened just now.

Hu Shunzhi blushed and said indignantly: "Your Majesty, the minister is a civil official, how can he be compared with these rough men in the army." Your Majesty doesn't want to make fun of Yu Chen, the ministers dare not be ashamed!"

"If you're ashamed, shut your mouth!"

Zhao Huan's face turned pale, and he said coldly: "The soldiers are fighting with the soldiers outside the city, if they hear your words, who is still willing to serve the imperial court, and who is still willing to be loyal to me." Do you have to rely on you, a useless sourman?"

"Your Majesty humiliates the ministers so much, the ministers are unbearable, please give your Majesty an order, let the ministers return to their hometowns, and the ministers please resign!"

Hu Shunzhi did not flinch, stepped forward to argue loudly, and the courtiers hurriedly stepped forward and dissuaded him.

Everyone can see that the Great Song Dynasty's official family's favor for Wang Song is extraordinary. It's too unwise to get along with the emperor at this time.

"I don't know what to say!"

Zhao Huan snorted coldly, and was about to speak, when the forbidden army officer outside the door came in, knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Majesty, just now the sergeant came to report that General Wang Songwang of the Loyal and Righteous Army is ordering people to clean up the battlefield, saying that he wants to bring all the captured things into the city so that he can defend the city in the future."

Uncle Zhang stomped his feet and said, "This Wang Song, it's really reckless!" If the Jurchen sergeants come to chase after them, won't they make a big mistake, and they may collapse for thousands of miles and succeed!"

The Jurchen army marched south, surrounded the city of Tokyo, and plundered in all directions. In a big battle outside Tokyo, if the Jin soldiers who returned to help just catch up, the loyal army was in a worrying situation.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, don't worry about Zhang Xuezhi!"

Sun Fu saw that the emperor's face was pale, and hurriedly said: "On the battlefield, it is all up to the generals to strategize. Since General Wang dares to do this, he has his own reasons, and His Majesty can rest assured. ”

The courtiers in the hall all shook their heads and sighed, and then whispered again.

Zhao Huan shook his head helplessly and said, "This Wang Song is really confused, what's the use of asking for these things?" As long as he enters the city, the weapons in the treasury can be used by him, which is really a small family. In case something goes wrong, who will guard this Bianliang City?"

Sun Fu wanted to persuade again, and another sergeant came in to report, but this time his face was happy.

"Your Majesty, General Wang is arranging for his subordinates to clean up the corpses of the fallen soldiers on the battlefield, saying that the wounded and seriously injured must be brought into the city, and no one can be left behind!"

Nearly 200,000 Jurchen troops besieged Bianjing from the east and west, but most of them gathered in the area around Gyeonggi, attacking the city and intercepting the righteous divisions of the Qinwang everywhere, and the farthest had reached the Jingxiang area.

The Jin army under the city is only 60,000 or 70,000 people, and the four walls of Bianjing City are surrounded by Wanyan Yinshuke, so in terms of local strength, the loyal and righteous army is not at a disadvantage, and the number of Jin soldiers who encircle and intercept the loyal and righteous army is almost the same as that of the loyal and righteous army.

Everyone was stunned, and Zhao Huan hurriedly said: "When General Wang cleaned up the corpses of his soldiers, didn't the Jurchen army take the opportunity to attack?"

The officer said: "Back to Your Majesty, Fanzi attacked several times, and General Wang's subordinates were killed and wounded about a thousand people, fortunately, the sergeants at the head of the city terminated Fanzi's offensive with bows and crossbows, but the number of Fanzi losses was roughly the same."

The crowd was anxious, but another sergeant ran in.

"Your Majesty, the loyal army is in the middle, the cavalry is on both wings, General Wang personally broke off, and now all have withdrawn into the city, and the gate of Xuanhua Gate has been closed, Your Majesty can rest assured!"

Everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief, and their faces relaxed.

Zhao Huan let out a long breath and nodded: "Wang Song is really wise and brave, and the national warrior is unparalleled. No, I have to wait for him outside the palace, and I must not cool the hearts of the soldiers fighting on the battlefield. ”

All the ministers in the palace were taken aback, and Prime Minister He Li hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Official, since ancient times, there has been no demotion ceremony, it is related to the court etiquette system, the royal majesty, please think carefully!"

"If the city is ruined and the country is destroyed, where is the royal majesty?"

Zhao Huan shook his head and said: "General Wang helped the general of the building to tilt and turn the tide." If it weren't for him, I'm afraid that Bianliang City would have been breached by the Jurchen army, and I would have become a lost dog. Wang Song has made great contributions to the city of Tokyo, has great favors to the imperial court, and has great favors to the hundreds of thousands of people in the city of Tokyo, and Wang Song deserves this gift!"

Sun Fu looked at Qin Hui, thinking that he would stop him, but who knew that this person did not move, his face sank like water, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Zhang Shuye also said: "When Wang Song is broken in the city, he will come, this may be a gift from God, the official family should cherish it, and the old minister also thinks that Wang Song deserves this demotion gift." There are so many kings in the world, and only Wang Song dares to go deep alone, kill the thieves, and ignore death. This person deserves to be the hero of my Great Song Dynasty, and he deserves it!"

Zhao Huan bowed his head and said: "My gift is not only Wang Song's great merit, but also a reward for his loyalty, all ministers, just wait outside the palace with me!"

Zhao Huan was in front, a kind of minister was behind, and everyone came out of the hall one after another.

Wang Song led people into the city, only to see that the inner gate street of Chenzhou had been crowded to the brim. Along the Xuanhua City Gate to the south, a hundred steps forward, carts, ox carts, mule carts, and even sedan chairs are all lined up in the streets.

Several old men with gray hair stepped forward and saluted Wang Song, "General, these are vehicles arranged by the villains and others to transport the bodies of their fallen brothers and wounded soldiers. The big officials killed the thieves outside the city and saved the people in Tokyo, and they are the benefactors of our big guys, please accept the old man and others!"

Wang Song hurriedly dismounted, helped everyone up, and said widely: "Old man, please get up quickly!"

He raised his head and shouted to the people around him: "Wang Song, thank you fathers and fellow villagers!" Don't worry, as long as my brothers are here, the thieves will never want to step into this Bianliang City! ”

"Good!"

The people cheered enthusiastically, everyone started together, and the bodies of the soldiers and the seriously wounded were carried by the people and placed on the car, and they went forward one by one. Everywhere I passed, there were crowds of people on both sides of the street, and the people came up with all kinds of food, eggs, melons and fruits, baked cakes and dried meat, desperately stuffing them into the arms of the soldiers.

Those soldiers who are usually oily, indifferent and selfish, their faces are also red and swollen at this time, and they even say thank you, and many people secretly swear in their hearts that in the future, they must fight like today, and fight bravely to kill the enemy, regardless of life and death.

Inadvertently, two baked cakes were stuffed into Yelu Yan's arms, and the battle was over, and he was already hungry in his stomach. Yelu Yan picked up the baked cake and took a bite, and the baked cake had a faint fragrance. He looked at the white handkerchief wrapped in the baked cakes, and couldn't help but secretly move.

Jeregard turned his head, and a young woman in a white light coat was waving to him. The woman smiled brightly, and the bright expression on her face intoxicated him.

"Little lady, your handkerchief!"

"Keep it, it's a gift for you!"

Yelu raised his hand in a daze, waved at the woman a few times, and turned his head with a confused expression.

"Thank you, uncle, thank you, little lady!"

Niu Tong wanted to refuse, but he couldn't stand the enthusiasm of the people, his nose was slightly sour, and he could only express his gratitude frequently.

Niu Gao sat on the horse, his face was red, and his heart was beating "through".

He has been poor for half his life, just two months ago, he was only an archer in Lushan County, and now it is only half a month, but he is already a high-headed horse, admired by all the people, and the glory and wealth, and the shadow of his wife are in front of him.

As soon as he thought of his mother and wife at home, he couldn't help but feel sad. Now that the rain has passed, his heart immediately brightens, and he no longer has to worry about the fact that his mother and wife will soon have a good life.

He couldn't help but feel a little lucky. If he hadn't met Wang Song, I'm afraid he would still be in Funiu Mountain, hungry and full, unknown, and I don't know when he will come out.

This TND is life!
