In the end, Liu Fa still accepted Tong Guan's military order and prepared to lead the army to reroute to Shuofang. Just like Yang Ye, the famous general of the first generation of the Yang family, was persecuted by the prison army Wang Yu, knowing that the chances of winning the army were very small, but he had to follow the order.

And Tong Guan looked at Liu Fa's departing back with cold eyes, and said in his heart that although he forced Liu Fa to submit in the name of the official family, Rao was that he had to send troops according to the order, and the two of them could also be said to have completely torn their faces, and there was almost no room for maneuver. Either don't do it, or you have to do it, Tong Guan said fiercely in his heart, there have always been some people in the Western Army who don't know how to lift, since they refuse to be used by me, they still stand on the opposite side of themselves, if they don't kill chickens and monkeys, wouldn't any character dare to jump out and disobey themselves?

Especially this Liu Fa, whose status in the army is enough to be compared with the old and small races, if he can succeed and achieve his own merits best, even if he is unfavorable or even ends up in a fiasco....... It is best for this Liu Fa to die in the hands of the Xia people, in case he picks up his life and the court investigates the responsibility for the defeat, this black cauldron must be borne by him.

With wishful thinking in his heart, Tong Guan's mouth still had a cold smile on the corner, and Liu Yanqing on the side looked at it in his eyes, and at this time, he gradually wanted to distinguish in his heart, Tong Xuanshuai really wanted to put Liu Fa to death!

It is said that Liu Yanqing is also from the Western Army, but his ancestors' reputation is far less than that of the Species, Fold, and Yao families, and now he also has a kind of teacher, a teacher, Liu Fa and many other military leaders on his head, and he can't take over the military power of the Western Army in terms of seniority. It's just that Liu Yanqing is a little unwilling in his heart, they are all from generations of generals, but the power of the Western Army is firmly controlled by the seed family, so I can't hide that my Liu family will always be obedient to his family?

Tong Guan stayed in the Western Army in the name of supervising the army, and immediately began to divide and win over the officers and soldiers of the Western Army, although the other generals looked very indignant, but for him Liu Yanqing, who was working for him, wasn't it all life? What's more, the water in the Great Song Dynasty is very deep, and Tong Xuanshuai is a celebrity in front of the official family, although the master is highly respected in the Western Army, but he was deposed from his official position for ten years just because he disagreed with the will of Minister Cai Jing because of the discussion of the service law...... Even if the generals of the border court make more military achievements, they still have to act according to the eyes of the powerful ministers in the court, and they are just some generals of the Western army who are not active in their brains, but Tong Xuanshuai is supported by the Song Dynasty, how can he fight?

Liu Yanqing thought about it like this, but he also asked himself if what he did was worthy of his heart, he did his best to serve the old breed, and he was the first to look forward to Tong Xuanshuai, wasn't he all contributing to the country on the battlefield? coincided with Tong Xuanshuai's appreciation and promotion, and I also lived a more open-minded life, and I could also bless future generations, what was wrong?

But now that he helped Tong Guan and coerced Liu Fa to lead his troops to take Shuo Fang, Liu Yanqing felt a trace of guilt in his heart for no reason.

Liu Yanqing pursed his lips, and the expression on his face was also cloudy. And Tong Guan's gaze came to him intentionally or unintentionally, Liu Yanqing and Tong Guan's eyes matched, and the guilt in his heart was replaced by fear, and a layer of cold sweat could not help but ooze out of his body.

Seeing that the hesitation on Liu Yanqing's face disappeared suddenly, Tong Guan snorted coldly, and said in his heart that he was a teacher, Liu Fa, that is, Zhi Keshi, Yao Gu, Liu Zhongwu and others were much better than him in terms of leading troops to fight, and in terms of military merits and prestige, Liu Yanqing was much better, and he was willing to reuse and promote him, just because Liu Yanqing was the most obedient one. Tong Guan also asked himself, with his eyes on people, to such a point, Liu Yanqing would not have any different intentions.

At this time, another military official came to report that a military envoy had come to report important matters to Xuanshuai, and Tong Guan vaguely encouraged Liu Yanqing a few words, and asked him to go to the city of Xining Prefecture to supervise the city defense and maintenance of the Western Army.

Liu Yanqing said goodbye to Tong Guan, and then left the festival hall with a heavy heart, and before he took a few steps, Liu Yanqing suddenly saw that his son Liu Guangshi also had a different expression, so he asked, "Wu'er, what are you thinking?" ”

Liu Guangshi hesitated for a moment, and then said resignedly: "Daddy, Tong Xuanshuai said that it is feasible to obliquely go out of the Huangshui to take the summer thief Shuo Fang, but the child also understands that those who are good at fighting must first be invincible, Shuo Fang is a critical place for summer thieves, and it is not appropriate to take it lightly, and Tong Xuanshuai will inevitably force General Liu to lead the troops to the battle, but as General Liu said, the odds of victory are probably not great......"

Seeing that his Lao Tzu was staring at him with a gloomy face, Liu Guangshi was not a straightforward man who dared to be angry and spoken, and he was quick to act, he immediately changed his words, and said busily: "The child thinks that if General Liu is unfavorable if he goes out of the army, he will lose his army, and this is also the method set by Tong Xuanshuai, and the court will investigate it at that time, and Tong Xuanshuai and Daddy must not look good." ”

"My son is confused, do you still think that Tong Xuanshuai insisted on Liu Fa sending troops, really just to calm the war in the border court?"

Liu Yanqing let out a long sigh and said, "The border court has gone through countless battles, and the generals who have survived a hundred battles are not as good as the close ministers to say a few more words that cater to the holy will by the side of the officials!" If you can't recognize the level of your eyebrows in the officialdom, you will end up in such a situation like Liu Fa... What are we trying to do as marchers with our heads tucked into the waistband of our trousers? Who doesn't want to have a famous future and blessings for their descendants? If you stand on the wrong team and follow the wrong person, let you go through the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood a few times, and you will have to retire even if you are afraid of any official body! Wu'er, you remember, if we, the generals who make their lives by fighting and killing, want to gain fame and die a good death, it is better to be able to be a man in the officialdom than to be able to fight in the army! ”

Listening to his Lao Tzu sighing, Liu Guangshi nodded again and again in a daze, judging from his expression, it seemed that he also deeply understood Liu Yanqing's "teachings......

On the side of the festival hall, forcing Liu Fa to lead the army to attack the land of Xia Guoshuo, and sent away Liu Yanqing, Liu Guangshi's father and son, Tong Guan was in front of him, at this time, a man who was less than six feet long and skinny walked in, and as soon as he saw Tong Guan, he immediately bowed and said: "I have seen Xuanshuai in my humble position!" ”

The man was not only born short, but seeing that he was born with a huge mouth, his face was blue, and his eyes were also green and faint in a pair of moves, as if he had Hu blood, and his appearance was ugly and a little obscene.

Tong Guan glanced at the man meaningfully, and said, "Kang Yuhou, what is the movement on the side of the old breed minister?" ”

Kang Yuhou bowed down again and said: "Tell Tong Xuanshuai, the old Xianggong took Zangdi City by himself, and led the army into the Yanyan Road to control the Xia army soldiers and horses in Xia, Yin, and Shizhou Prefectures. ”

Tong Guan let out a long hum, and then said: "Kang Jie, you were originally the old breed of the prime minister's mansion, since you are now willing to do things for a certain family, but you should be promoted, a certain family ordered you to take advantage of the east and west roads of the Great Song Dynasty to pay attention to the movements of the old breed of the minister, this matter can be decided and not fried." ”

The thin little Yu Hou who was called Kang Jie heard the words and bowed to Tong Guan, and then his pair of green tricks slid around, and immediately said: "The villain was lifted by Xuanshuai, as if he saw the sun through the clouds...... However, although the soldiers and horses of the old Xianggong Office were just as Tong Xuanshuai expected, they did not move without authorization, and the villain came this time, but it was about the commander Xiao Tang Xiao Jie, who had joined the old Xianggong some time ago and was now leading the army to Xining Prefecture. ”
