The two were talking in the study, there was a faint thunder outside, Tong Guan looked outside, and saw that the sky was still clear outside, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder, this is close to Fandi, the weather is so weird, and there will be thunder on a sunny day.

Tong Guan shook his head to himself, and was about to speak, when there was a faint shout in the distance, followed by a horn sound—this person's horn sound was special, different from the horn in his own military camp.

Could it be that the soldiers are attacking?

Although the Fanren have recently won a big victory, but there is a Jin army in the north, and they are still too busy to protect themselves, how can they dare to cross the line and take the initiative to provoke trouble?

Jin Jun made peace with Fanren? Such an idea came out, scaring Tong Guan out of a cold sweat, it is not impossible, those people, Jin people are not taught by the saints are dull and unreformed, there is no benevolence, righteousness and etiquette, national law education at all, some rich women, and then there are ministers; Or it is not impossible for the Jin people to be defeated and pretend to surrender, so as to delay the army, but let the Fan people come to repel the army on their side first, so that they can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and consume the strength of themselves and the soldiers.

Tong Guan speculated wildly, ignoring the drums and shouts outside, and didn't care, fighting outside to fight his own army in the rammed man, this Xiongzhou City is the first Xiongguan in the north, the city is high and the wall is thick, just rely on those people and siege methods, isn't it an itch in the boots?

Tong Guan said to He Si again: "Send someone to Yanjing again, and I want to find out about the princess of that person...... Just as he was talking, a maid walked in with a letter, handed the letter to Tong Guan, and said: "The letter was sent by the soldiers from outside the city who entered the city and the messenger on duty sent it. "This is Tong Guan's rule all along, the inner hall serves all women, and the staff and guards outside can only wait in the second hall.

Tong Guan took it, but it was not actually a letter, it was just a piece of paper, and there were traces of being pierced by arrows on it. Tong Guan opened the letter and saw two lines written on it: "If you want peace, you will still be peaceful, if you don't want peace, please send troops to see the battle, the heat is hot, don't let the army suffer." In the end, only one "stone" word was signed, the handwriting was beautiful, but it revealed a fierce air of arrogance to all beings, looking at its grammar handwriting, and the stone word, it was naturally known as the first Yelu stone of Hanlin Bachelor.

After reading the words of Yelu Dashi's letter, Tong Guan suddenly couldn't help it, and was furious, as if Yelu Dashi was riding on a horse and pointing at him with a horsewhip, and the horsewhip was about to hit the tip of his nose, and in front of the soldiers of the two armies, he said to him impatiently: "If you want to negotiate peace, you should negotiate quickly, and if you want to fight, you should do it as soon as possible, the weather is so hot, don't let my subordinates suffer from this summer heat." ”

I have been in the army for several years, and I can be regarded as fighting in the east and west, and now I have 100,000 troops, but I was so humiliated by a scholar who has not dried up and is not sanctified.

Even though Tong Guan is no longer a man, he can't stand the humiliation of Yelu Dashi.

Tong Guan walked back and forth in the hall, like a beast in a cage, with a hideous face.

He wants to fight, he wants to fight to Fanren Nanjing in one go, and recapture this cloud land for the saint.

However, the soldiers are incompetent, how hard does he work as a commander, he can't rely on him to go into battle in person, right?

It's just that the people humiliated him so much, he can't still shrink in the lobby and ignore it, right? Thinking of this, Tong Guan hastily arranged things to He Si, then walked out of the lobby and said to the staff generals outside the hall: "Everyone, you can go to the city with a certain person to have a look." ”

The team of people hugged Tong Guan on the Xiongzhou city wall, Tong Guan was the first time to climb the high wall of the Xiongzhou city, looking at it, it seemed to be a thousand miles away, which made people feel a little swaying. On the city wall, Liu Tao and a team of soldiers were standing on the battlement wall at the city gate, looking down, and saw Tong Guan coming up, and hurriedly bowed and saluted. Tong Guan waved his hand, stood in the position of Liu Tao just now, and saw that there was about a stone's throw away in the north of the city, more than 1,000 cavalry were high-spirited, galloping back and forth, shouting wildly, among them, a soldier in the middle held a big banner under the sun and the moon, these soldiers were all brightly armored, and their riding skills were superb, but there was no Yelu Dashi himself under the banner, depending on the situation, but Yelu Dashi's generals came here to challenge. It can also be seen from this that after the last victory, the generals under Yelu Dashi were completely satisfied with Yelu Dashi.

Only about 1,000 people, they dared to come to Xiongzhou to provoke, Tong Guan couldn't help but be imposing, and shouted: "Which soldier dares to fight for a certain one?" ”

No one on the left and right dared to stand up, and the generals who came up with Tong Guan just now wanted to let the staff in front of them block themselves tightly.

Tong Guan looked at the generals on both sides again, and was about to scold these people, only to hear a person next to him say: "The marshal doesn't have to be angry about this. ”

Tong Guan turned around to take a look and saw a young soldier who was bowing to him with his fists in his fists, but he didn't know the soldier.

Liu Yun, who was standing next to him, hurriedly said to Tong Guan: "Tong Xuanshuai, this person is Yue Fei and Yue Pengju. ”

Tong Guan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Pengju is willing to go out of the city to fight?" ”

Yue Fei shook his head and said, "The villain is not petitioning to fight. ”

Liu Tao was shocked when he heard this, Yue Fei was able to be sponsored as a supplementary letter lang, although he was the lowest level in the military attache rank, but he also had to be officially canonized by the imperial court before he was recognized, from a common man to the official military attache of the imperial court, it was also a step to the sky. Yue Fei was recommended by Tong Guan, not only did he not repay the favor, but he contradicted Tong Guan, which was really bold.

Tong Guan frowned, not knowing what he was thinking, but glared at Yue Fei, seeing what he wanted to say, Yue Fei was still neither humble nor arrogant, his resolute eyebrows showed the master's calmness, and said: "Fanren is in a hurry to retreat." ”

When Tong Guan and Liu Tao heard this, they both looked at Yue Fei, and Yue Fei explained: "Fan has few soldiers, and the enemy is on both sides, so he should not have come to our army to provoke a war, but now he is acting like this, and there is no master to come, it must be a more urgent matter in the DPRK or in the country, so Yelu Dashi took advantage of the last big victory, and the momentum is booming, so as to humiliate the marshal, and then demonstrate." He expected that our army would be defeated and would not face the battle. In this way, it is good to withdraw and exit. Therefore, it is expected that Yelu Dashi will quietly lead the army to leave soon, or even Yelu Dashi is no longer here. ”

Tong Guan looked at Yue Pengju in amazement, this young man had a steadiness and wisdom far beyond his age, and even more unusual strength. Yelu Dashi and Xiao Gan's return to Beijing, Princess Fanren's rebellion, and Li Chuwen's arrest were also just learned from Xizuo, but he didn't think of anything to do with this letter. And this Yue Fei analyzed Yelu Dashi's actions, which was reasonable and well-founded, and actually said a rough idea of the matter of Yanjing, which was convincing in front of him.

Tong Guan couldn't help but say: "Since Yelu Dashi is not in the army, why don't you raise the army and march north?" ”

Yue Fei glanced at Tong Guan and replied, "Then Yelu Dashi had long expected that the marshal would not be able to send troops, so he dared to do so. ”

Tong Guan was about to ask, and was about to open his mouth, but closed it again. Because he suddenly understood that the 100,000 army of the imperial court was newly defeated, grain, grass, war equipment, even war horses, and most importantly, morale, all of which were not enough, how to fight with the soldiers who came and went like the wind? is the more than 1,000 soldiers in front of him, but I am afraid that the people who are fighting here will not even be able to catch the tail of other people's horses.

Tong Guanzheng was a little discouraged, but he heard Yue Fei say again: "The people are already exhausted, this time the people are retreating, the marshal only needs to wait for time, and there will be a time to go north sooner or later." ”

The words of Tong Guan's chest disappeared, and the clouds of sorrow were dissipated, vividly outlining the ambition that he had hidden in his heart for a long time, as if he had clearly pointed out to him the right way to extinguish on the wrong way. Tong Guan couldn't help but say: "What a Yue Fei Yue Pengju!" Then he took his men back to Xuanshuai's mansion.

Liu Tao couldn't help but pat Yue Fei on the shoulder, but didn't say anything.

Outside the city, the soldiers frolicked, the same chaos in Xiongzhou City, crowded with people everywhere, to be precise, everywhere was crowded with soldiers, 100,000 troops crowded into the city, no matter how big Xiongzhou City was, it could not accommodate it. There was really no place for these soldiers to set up camp, and the streets, under the courtyard walls, under the trees, and in the carriage and horse shops, were all crowded with soldiers. Drunk, troublesome, lying down, loitering, it's really chaotic to the extreme.

It's getting hotter and hotter, and the real summer has arrived.
