Seeing that the population that originally belonged to Jinghu was pouring into Guanzhong, how could Li Zengbo not be annoyed, but he still had nothing to do.

What Changsun Hong can do quickly, Li Zengbo doesn't dare to call the shots.

The most taboo thing for the feudal officials is to attract the suspicion of the imperial court, and the Great Song Dynasty uses literature to control the military, that is, they are afraid that the martial arts will be reckless and uncontrollable, and the army is as strong as an ox. The Jinghu envoy has already held a heavy army and stepped on the throat of the Great Song Dynasty, if he is not cautious and steady, then Li Zengbo's official position will not last long.

Choosing homeless people and forming an army, without the approval and consent of the imperial court, Li Zengbo did not dare to recruit a single soldier, which was a violation of the ban, and he could be reduced to exile at worst, or demoted or demoted, and the adults in the court could keep an eye on it.

Li Zengbo felt that there were invisible constraints all over his body, and he had an empty head of ideas, but he couldn't implement them, and he sighed in vain.

Fan Wenhu was still sitting with a big grin, looking at Li Zengbo's anxious and sad face indifferently, without worrying about his anxious reaction, and patting Ruyi, he was in a mood to start talking about how to ask the court for merit after Zhang Rou retired from the army.

"Xiangfan is impregnable, with 100,000 soldiers, and a warehouse full of grain and grass, which is enough to hold on for decades, Lord Li is sitting here, and there is a strong reinforcement like my Fan Wenhu on the side, what is there to worry about?" Fan Wenhu spread his legs with big thorns, lay on the chair very indecently, and said without scruples: "Lord Li doesn't have to worry too much, Zhang Rou has been wandering outside the city for a month and hasn't even touched the bricks of the city wall, which is a clear proof, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, I have been in the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years, and I have my own national fortune protection, and I can't afford to set off a big storm." ”

Li Zengbo lowered his head sullenly, did not talk, Fan Wenhu felt bored, and felt that Li Zengbo was really pedantic, the two of them looked up at the sky and the other looked down at the ground, but they didn't speak, and became silent.

Fan Wenhu is actually not wrong about one thing, Zhang Rou really can't help the strong Jinghu defense line.

He led tens of thousands of soldiers to run around the periphery of Xiangfan, and the city fought a lot, but most of them were not wanted by Li Zengbo to retreat, most of them were empty cities, and they were useless.

Therefore, Fan Wenhu watched Zhang Rou running around outside the city in Fancheng in vain, and his arrogance grew bolder, thinking that the reason why he could make the enemy army do nothing was because of his own strong reinforcement, so once he didn't know what to think, he actually opened the city to take the initiative to provoke.

Of course, Zhang Rou did not disappoint him, he rode on a horse, and simply defeated the Jiangsu and Zhejiang soldiers who were mainly foot soldiers, and sent Fan Wenhu a dismount, and the turtle retracted back to Fancheng and never dared to go out to invite the battle again.

However, this did not prevent Fan Wenhu from adding a sum to himself in the merit book, and in the Tang newspaper to Lin'an every month, the rhetoric of singing praises is still so colorful and gorgeous, and he attributed the reason for Zhang Rou's obstruction, who could not go further, to himself.

If you don't go out, I won't come in, and you'll confront each other in Xiangfan.

Time passed in the confrontation, and Lianghuai, which was thousands of miles away from Jinghu, was also in a stalemate.

In the direction of the two Huai, under the strong support of Yu Jue and Du Gao, the Huaidong system, stabilized the Huaihe defense line, although Shi Tianze advanced from the Daimyo Mansion to the Guide Mansion, and occupied Shouzhou on the north bank of the Huai River, and the Song army on the other side of the river to hold Luzhou across the river, but has not been able to cross the river successfully, hundreds of thousands of people on both sides of the bank knocked and beat, for a time the whole war situation fell into a helpless predicament.

Such a negative scene lasted for several months, and in March of the third year of the Great Song Baoyou, the cold air of early spring had just dissipated, and the Song army on the bank of the Huai River was suddenly surprised to find that the Shi Tianze military camp that was bustling with people and horses in the past was suddenly empty.

This is so unusual that many people have to treat it as a trap and not let their guard down, but rather strengthen their vigilance. Wait until three days later, the scouts reported that the northern army had indeed retreated, and as soon as it retreated, it retreated cleanly, and now within a hundred miles of the Huai River to the north, there was not a single soldier of the northern army.

Yu Jue and Du Gao were a little stunned, how could Shi Tianze, who had been fighting for life and death for more than half a year, suddenly die down, could it be that behind this, what conspiracy is hidden?

Another month passed, and the exact news came, and the two top defenders of Lianghuai were truly relieved.

Shi Tianze, who returned to the north, really retreated, and the reason for his retreat was a little unbelievable.

He went back to help Changsun Hong attack Yanjing's Za Thorn.

It's like a jaw drop.

Shi Tianze, the overlord who ignored the Great Song Dynasty and openly waved his army south, obediently followed Sun Hong, the commander of the Great Song Dynasty, to attack a 10,000-household household in Mongolia.

Which side are you on?

And Changsun Hong, if you can mobilize Shi Tianze, why did you let him wreak havoc in Lianghuai for so long, beating the Huaihe River defense line of the Great Song Dynasty to a thousand holes, and causing the imperial court to spend countless lives and astronomical military expenses, which side are you?

Du Gao and Yu Jue have an old relationship with the eldest grandson, but it is inconvenient to ask questions from such a distance, so they can only write their doubts into the Tang newspaper and play the court.

It is conceivable that when the Privy Council and the Liberty learned of the news, their hearts were shocked and complicated.

Jia Rudao strengthened his understanding of Changsun Hong, and scolded this person for being a treacherous and cunning person, while Li Zong breathed a long sigh of relief, in his opinion, no matter whether Changsun Hong was good or bad, as long as he could transfer the enemies who had entered the Kou, he would be a useful person.

More people are talking about it, speculating about the purpose of Changsun Hong's doing, some people say that Changsun Hong is a pillar of the imperial court, but one person can reach ten thousand troops, and even a person like Shi Tianze can send a command, which shows the strength of the wrist. Some people also say that this person will definitely harm the court, and he is an unborn traitor, and if he is not solved as soon as possible, he will become a confidant sooner or later.

Say the good and the bad, each has its own reason, but no one can put forward a good way to deal with this disobedient Dali prince, the eldest grandson Hongyuan is in the north, and the Great Song Dynasty is separated by many Mo Nan Wan households, even if the Song court wants to do something to him, it is impossible.

And the lords of the Privy Council of the Great Song Dynasty were obviously much more powerful than these people who could only talk about it, and after several consultations with Li Zong, they quickly sent envoys to the north.

The things that the envoy brought with him shocked those who heard it.

On April 26 of the third year of the Great Song Dynasty Baoyou, Ding Daquan, who was promoted to the Great Song Dynasty's privy decree, went out again and went north with the edict of Emperor Lizong, and summoned Sun Hong, the chief of the capital system, as a concubine, and went to Lin'an in the near future to marry Princess Yanfu. I want to talk about "Lisong" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
