530, Brother Zheng, it's so hard to see you (1)
Since the last night talk, Zhao Liangsi seems to have given up, and never talked to Uncle Zhang about that matter again, Uncle Zhang naturally kept a reasonable distance from Zhao Liangsi, and the two walked all the way with their own thoughts, and finally arrived at the Daimyo's Mansion on the fourth day, only half a day's journey away from Jingxi Road, but they also heard two news here that surprised them,
The first one, two days ago, the Liangshan bandits suddenly launched an attack on Jingdong East Road, and today I just received news that the bandits have conquered Zizhou, and Yizhou has also fallen into a bitter battle! "They're finally getting started!" Although Zhao Liangsi does not understand military affairs, he can also see that Jingdong East Road is indeed a place with more strategic advantages than Jingdong West Road. The Daimyo Mansion has sent the fastest horse to deliver this news to Tokyo, asking what Tokyo should do next, the best way to rescue Jingdong Road is to launch another attack on the Liangshan bandits, but now who dares to take the initiative to attack the surrounding provinces?
The second is that Tokyo appointed Liang Shijie, the left-behind minister of the Beijing Daimyo Mansion, as the chief recruitment envoy of the Zhao'an Mission, and was fully responsible for the recruitment of security, that is, Zhao Liangsi, the envoy of Zhao'an, and Zhang Shuye, the deputy envoy of Zhao'an, should also be controlled by him.
For this order, Zhao Liangsi and Zhang Shuye glanced at each other, and they both saw a deep helplessness in each other's eyes, needless to say, it must have happened to the court after they left Tokyo, Liang Shijie is Cai Jing's son-in-law, then this matter can also be understood as Cai Jing wants to hold the power of Zhao'an in his hands, why he did this is unknown, but Zhao Liangsi and Zhang Shuye are aware of the grievances between Cai Jing and Zheng Linfeng, therefore, his intervention, Zhao'an This matter may be overshadowed.
And in front of the Zhao'an mission, there was a question immediately, that is, the war is another one, and now can you go to Zhao'an on Jingxi Road? If it was in the past, Zhao Liangsi and Zhang Shuye naturally wouldn't care about whether they started a war or not, and just continued to go, but now they can't be the master, because now Liang Shijie is the boss, and they have to ask for his orders.
Liang Shijie was also very hesitant, when he received the imperial court appointing him as the chief envoy of Zhao'an, he also received a secret letter from his father-in-law Cai Jing, Cai Jing asked him to find a way to destroy Zhao'an, but the actual situation is that Liang Shijie does not want to destroy Zhao'an, because he is the Daimyo Mansion to stay, only a hundred miles away from the Liangshan Bandit Kou, if the Liangshan Thief Kou comes to attack, he can reach the city in half a day, in the last war, he sent 50,000 troops, the result is that the whole army was annihilated, if the war continues, he does not have full confidence to keep the Daimyo's Mansion. But if he can recruit the Liangshan bandits, he can sit back and relax, so he agrees with Zhao'an.
As a result, when he was hesitating, Zhao Liangsi and the others came, Zhao Liangsi saw Liang Shijie's hesitation, and said, "The holy order has not been completed, how can you give up halfway?" If this happens, adults and I will be able to live forever. Liang Shijie's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he finally made a choice and continued to go to Zhao'an! Father-in-law...... Let's think about prevarication in the future.
So, in the afternoon of the same day, the Zhao'an delegation left the Daimyo's Mansion and continued to travel in the direction of Jingxi Road, Liang Shijie naturally did not dare to go along, but he also specially sent a team of men and horses to escort them.
Half a day later, the Zhao'an mission finally arrived at Yanggu County, the westernmost part of Jingxi Road, and now Yanggu County is still garrisoned by Hua Rong, Hua Rong shined in the last war, first defeated the Daimyo's future hope of the Great Song Dynasty's Yao Qigong, and then defeated the Daimyo's Mansion reinforcements of nearly 10,000 people, so that now the Daimyo's Mansion is terrified when he hears the name of Huarong, including the team of people who escorted the Zhao'an Mission, the closer they get to Jingdong West Road, the more uncomfortable they become, as if they are about to be precarious, and Zhao Liangsi sighed in his heart, I can't help but wonder, with such an army, can we defeat the Liao State and take back the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
When the news of the appearance of the Great Song Mission at the border reached Yanggu County, Hua Rong was reading a book, and he was not at all surprised by the arrival of the Great Song Mission, because he had already received Zheng Fei's order a few days ago, and Zheng Fei's order was very simple, one word, drag! The later the Zhao'an delegation saw him, the better, but it couldn't be too obvious, and the bottom line was not to force the other party away.
Hua Rong also fully implemented Zheng Fei's order, and when his subordinates came down to report that a team of people had come from the Great Song Dynasty, saying what was the Zhao'an Mission, Hua Rong smiled and put down the book and went to the border to meet them in person.
As soon as the people of the Daimyo Mansion heard that Hua Rong was coming, their faces changed dramatically as if they were facing a great enemy, and their nervousness also infected the other people in the mission, everyone was trembling and thought that there was going to be some three-headed and six-armed bandits, and only Zhao Liangsi and Zhang Shuye behaved normally in the mission, Zhang Shuye had already seen the Tiandao Army, and he was also a secret element of the Tiandao Army, Zhao Liangsi was full of curiosity and stared at every Tiandao Army soldier, the more he looked at it, the more he sighed in his heart, the same race, but more than a hundred miles apart, but from officers to soldiers, Looking at that momentum, looking at that look, why is the Heavenly Dao Army so different from the Song Army?
When Hua Rong came, everyone, including those daimyo soldiers, the envoys and Zhao Lianghei, knew that the legendary Hua Rong was such a handsome and beautiful person, if he wasn't wearing armor, I am afraid that some people would believe him if he was a gentle jade son.
Hua Rong politely asked, "Who are you and what are you here for?" ”
Zhao Liangsi replied truthfully,
Hua Rong's face sank and said, "Zhao'an? Do we Heavenly Dao Army need your imperial court to recruit peace? ”
Zhao Liangsi then replied, General, you have misunderstood, it's not that we have to recruit you, it's your leader who asks us to recruit you, if you don't believe it, you can ask your leader.
What Hua Rong wanted was Zhao Liangsi's words, and he pondered for a while and said, Okay, then you can wait here first, I have to ask our commander if there is such a thing. Hua Rong left after speaking, and immediately went back to Yanggu County to continue reading.
Zhao Liangsi and others had no choice but to set up camp at the border and wait patiently, this wait was a day and a night, during which Hua Rong also specially ordered someone to send hot food,
Zhao Liangsi was not in a hurry at all, because he could see that Uncle Zhang was not in a hurry at night. Uncle Zhang was not in a hurry at all, he understood that seeing Zheng Fei every night and one day would give the Tiandao Army one more day to win Jingdong East Road. It's just that although they are not in a hurry, some people are in a hurry, and on the afternoon of the next day, the Daimyo's Mansion urgently sent someone to ask why the mission did not enter Jingxi Road yet? Now that the war in the east is critical, we must go to see the thief leader Zheng Linfeng as soon as possible, ask him if he is willing to negotiate peace, if he is willing, immediately stop attacking Jingdong Road, and everyone sit down together and have a good talk. If not, the imperial court can also make up its mind to fight again.
Zhao Liangsi replied, "The thief has gone to ask Zheng Linfeng, whether he can negotiate peace or not, there will be a result in these two days." ”
And the movement on his side has been under Hua Rong's surveillance, Hua Rong knew that the delay time was almost up as soon as he saw that someone from the Daimyo's Mansion had arrived, so before the people from the Daimyo's Mansion went back to his life, Hua Rong appeared at the border again and told Zhao Liangsi, "Our commander has replied and allowed you to enter my realm!" ”
Seeing this, Zhao Liangsi smiled coldly in his heart, this person will not come sooner or later, but at this time, is there such a coincidence in the world? He immediately understood that he had waited in vain for this day and night, and Zheng Linfeng's kid obviously deliberately wanted the mission to see him later. But it doesn't matter, our friendship, I will fulfill you!
Zhao Liangsi then smiled at the people of the Daimyo Mansion, "Look, the thief leader Zheng Linfeng agreed with us, which shows that there is a spectrum in the matter of Yihe Zhao'an, you go back, I will go to him and ask him for clarification." ”
The people of the Daimyo Mansion immediately went back to their lives with joy,
Only then did Zhao Liangsi turn to Hua Rong and smile, "General, where are we going to meet your commander?" ”
Hua Rong noticed that the smile of the person in front of him was a little unusual, and he also replied with a smile, "Oh, our commander is now inspecting the people's situation in all directions, you can go to Yunzhou City first, and we can go to see you when our commander is done." ”
