Chapter 502: Could it be that those Western Xia barbarians have already coaxed it? (1st Update)

Chapter 502

But what about this young man? There is no, and the Empress Dowager and the Son of Heaven, the two supreme powers of the Great Song Dynasty, who are not in harmony, attach great importance to him and take good care of him.

The attacks of the old party jumping up and down are not even as good as a drizzle for Wang Yang.

And Zhang Qi does not belong to the new party of radical reform, nor does he belong to the conservative old party, plus he has been in office and has stayed away from political turmoil, but the more this is the case, the more he can stand by coldly.

In addition to Wang Yang's goods, this young Ma Shang Ma Gonggong entered the palace at the age of seven, has always been by the side of the Son of Heaven, and has won the trust of the Son of Heaven, and now he is only fifteen years old, but he is already an eight-rank eunuch.

But Zhang Qi can see that this Ma Shang Ma Gonggong, when facing other people, will also take the posture of the people in his palace, but when facing Wang Yang, the posture of unconsciously weakening the chicken is enough to see that Wang Yang is far more important in the mind of the Son of Heaven than this Ma Gonggong, who has been by the side of the Son of Heaven since he was a child.

"Don't dare to be, Master Zhang has been stationed in the border for a long time, he is brilliant in writing, and he is proficient in Tao strategy, which is really admired by the lower officials, this time I can go to Huanzhou with the adults, and I just have the opportunity to learn and ask for advice by Lord Zhang's side, and I also ask Lord Zhang to be sure to give advice when the time comes."

Seeing that Wang Yang was so knowledgeable and interested, Zhang Qi couldn't help but let go of the guard in his heart, stroked his beard and smiled. "Okay, as long as Lord Xiao Wang is willing to learn, if you know how to do it, you will definitely teach it with all your money, and you will never hide it."

Su Dongpo said with a smile on the side. "Well, Lord Zhang is one of the few people in my Great Song Dynasty who has been stationed in the border fortress for a long time, Wang Wushan, you have to humbly ask Lord Zhang for advice."

"This official will personally inspect the Zhuzhai fort in Gyeongju, and on the Huanju side, it will be hard for the two of you. In addition, this time to Huanzhou, the old man will send another 500 yuan of Youjia soldiers, with you and the two of you, I hope that when the two of you inspect the fortresses, you must also be careful of your own safety, otherwise, the old man can really explain to His Majesty and the Queen Mother. ”

"This, how does this make you, bachelor, the pillar of the country, now sitting in Gyeongju, your safety cannot be neglected."

"What are you afraid of, with you in Huanzhou and Su sitting in the rear, are you still afraid that those Xixia Xiaoxiao will not be able to cross the border? What's more, Su still has a battalion of Yuanyou armor soldiers by his side. There is no need to talk about this anymore...... Not only are you the most valued young talent by Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager, but the old man is also your witness, but you don't want to go back and have no face to explain to Ge Fei. ”

"Thank you for your love, the lower officials will remember your advice and will definitely be cautious." When Wang Yang heard this, he couldn't help but be moved and bowed deeply to Su Dongpo.

You must know that among the 30,000 forbidden troops who came this time, there are only 30 in total, according to the Great Song Dynasty military system, five are one battalion, and there are only six battalions in total that have been replaced with elite soldiers from the Great Song Dynasty and Yuan Youjia.

On Han Zhongyan's side, two battalions of 1,000 people were transferred, and Zhang Yu went to Huanzhou, but he was only equipped with one battalion of Yuan Yu armor soldiers, and Su Dongpo, who was supposed to stay in Gyeongju, also had 1,500 Yuan You armor soldiers around him, of which 1,000 were elite Yuan You armor cavalry, which was personally instructed by the Empress Dowager, and this 1,000 Yuan You armor cavalry is definitely a trump card in Su Dongpo's hands now. And now, he directly took out a battalion of Yuan Youjia soldiers and handed it to Wang Yang.

Even if they are all foot soldiers, but with such a favor, Wang Yang is so moved that he doesn't know what to say.

Hearing these words, seeing Su Dongpo's attitude towards Wang Yang, Zhang Qi felt that Wang Yang's weight was getting heavier and heavier, and he began to carefully consider the candidates for the border generals who would protect Wang Yang at that time.

No way, this guy is not only deeply trusted by the Son of Heaven and the Empress Dowager, but even Su Dongpo takes such good care of him, if this guy is really lost in Huanzhou, then he is really hehe.

After Zhang Kai chatted with Wang Yang and Ma Shang for a few more words, he told the two of them that because Huanzhou was in the north of Gyeongju and the army was in trouble, he would have a good night's rest and set off tomorrow.

In addition, Su Dongpo had to go with Zhang Qi to bid farewell to Han Zhongyan, Wang Yang and Ma Shang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and they didn't have to rush to Huanzhou that day.

Gyeongju is not very big, but it is an important town on the Shaanxi Road of the Great Song Dynasty, and because of the non-war time, the trade between the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty people, making this Gyeongju also seem very prosperous.

The two quickly picked a restaurant that looked like a crowd of guests, rushed up, and together with the guards of the class and the long entourage beside Wang Yang, they also squatted in this slightly narrow private room and ate and drank.

There are not only fine wines from the Western Regions, but also roast lamb with local characteristics. A group of men were eating with their mouths full of oil and exhaling happily, only Ma Shang's father-in-law was chewing there with his fingers cocked.

"I said Father-in-law, the rest of you are much better than in the past, but this is the meal......" Wang Yang threw aside the lamb stick bones that had been gnawed smooth by himself as if they had been brushed by a steel brush, and after draining the wine in front of him, he said with emotion.

These words made some rough men subconsciously nod their heads and agree with Wang Yang, the old driver's words.

"It's no wonder that our family, since we were in the palace since childhood, we pay attention to eating and not making a sound, otherwise we will annoy those old eunuchs, and a meal of flesh and skin is indispensable......" Ma Shang was very helpless and remembered bittersweetly.

"Now that you are also a trustworthy person around Your Majesty, do you still need to worry about such a problem?" Wang Yang thought about it, copied the leg of mutton again, and then hooked his finger at Xu Zhao.

Xu Zhao, who was feasting, saw Wang Yang's obscene appearance, his face suddenly darkened, and he stood up directly and went around to the other side. After provoking Wang Yang to displeased with the goods, he finally left another royal officer who didn't pay attention to it, and pulled out the waist knife of the goods with a choked sound.

In the screams of that guy, Wang Yang slashed down with a knife, and the mutton stick bone in his hand was broken into two, and then he was satisfied with the waist knife stained with mutton fat and inserted it directly into the sheath of the bitter-looking imperial front banzhi. "What is it called, isn't it just to borrow your sword? Besides, don't all your knives need to be oiled and maintained? I'm doing you a favor......"

"Your Excellency...... I, forget it, I'm really convinced of you......" That royal squad wanted to cry without tears, especially he was not a grassland barbarian, and he used it for maintenance, he must have used lard that didn't have much odor or something.

This mutton fat has the most delicious taste, and it can't always have the smell of sheep in a sheath, right? The grief-stricken imperial officer could only gesture his middle finger to Wang Yang, a civil official with outstanding military value, while continuing to chew on those side stuffed delicacies with grief and indignation.

And Xu Zhao was very happy, because he accidentally hit his finger last time, especially when he rested at night, after mixing the smell of stinky socks, it was sour and refreshing, and it will definitely make you remember it for a lifetime.

"I don't know if those Western Xia barbarians have heard that our Great Song Dynasty forbidden army is coming to help, and they have already coaxed it, and they dare not attack when they retreat back to the summer realm, if this is the case, then our 30,000 forbidden army, won't they run away in vain?" One of the royal guards asked, nibbling on meat.
