Chapter 440: Yue Han meets
Zhang Jun said goodbye and left, Han Shizhong and Wang Yan still stayed in the room, both of them felt a little strange, they didn't understand why Zhang Jun suddenly hung up the seal and left.
"This thing is strange!" Han Shizhong said.
Wang Yan nodded.
"When I came to the northwest, it was really bitter cold. However, we are much better than those descendants of Emperor Xuanwu, we don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and even our generals can get wine and meat. Emperor Xuanwu's Military Justice Department only regulates those ordinary soldiers, and does not care about us. Here, it can be regarded as free, why did Zhang Jun leave? Han Shizhong said.
"I'm afraid it's because of Yue Fei." Wang Yan thought for a while and said.
"Yue Fei?" Han Shizhong was stunned.
"Yes! In fact, when he was outside Xiangzhou City, Emperor Jianyan once tried to plot against Emperor Xuanwu! Although this matter is secret, we all know it now! I also heard that it was Yue Fei who saved the life of Emperor Xuanwu that day, and Yue Fei trampled Zhang Jun under his feet, which was an unprecedented shame for Zhang Jun. Wang Yan said.
"I see!" Han Shizhong suddenly said.
"General Yue sent someone a few days ago, saying that the Jurchens and Tanguts were about to go south, so I asked me to get ready, and I don't know where the Jurchens and Tanguts are now?" Wang Yan said.
"Not good!" Han Shizhong said suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Wang Yan said in surprise.
"General Yue said that it is very likely that the Jurchens and the Tangut people did not go in the direction of Datong, but went south from the original territory of the Western Xia to enter Guanshan! I am waiting in Yinzhou, beware every day, even if the Jurchens and Western Xia people come, we can also hold Yinzhou, and when General Yue's army arrives, the Jurchens and Western Xia will naturally retreat! But Zhang Jiajun was in Xiazhou, Zhang Jun left suddenly, and the situation in Xiazhou was only a little dangerous! Han Shizhong said.
"Ahh Wang Yan also let out an exclamation.
"This matter needs to be arranged in advance!" Han Shizhong said.
"How?" Wang Yan said.
"Tomorrow, I will send someone to inform General Yue, and in addition, let's persuade Zhang Jun and let Zhang Jun go back quickly!" If not, I'll take 10,000 soldiers and horses to Xiazhou! Han Shizhong said.
"That's all there is to it!" Wang Yan nodded and said.
"I hope there will be no accidents in Xiazhou, otherwise Zhang Jun will be to blame! This Zhang Jun, for the sake of the battle of will, even disregarded the safety of Xiazhou, it really shouldn't be! He even persuaded the two of us to leave the northwest too! Hey, when we took refuge in Emperor Xuanwu, we didn't want to waste the years, hoping to make a difference in our lifetime, Lord Zongze persuaded us, we all took refuge in Emperor Xuanwu, and now Zhang Jun is like this! Han Shizhong sighed.
"Actually, Zhang Jun has always disliked Emperor Xuanwu very much! At the beginning, it was also the trend of the times, and he had to take refuge in Emperor Xuanwu. Wang Yan said.
"You and I will rest early, and we will immediately arrange things in Xiazhou tomorrow." Han Shizhong said.
Only then did the two disperse.
******
However, in the early morning of the second day, when the sky was dark, Han Shizhong had just gotten up and got the news that Yue Fei had come outside the Han Mansion!
"Ahh Han Shizhong was taken aback when he heard the news, and he hurriedly put on his clothes and walked outside.
When the gate of the Han Mansion opened, I saw Yue Fei waiting outside with countless personal soldiers.
"General Yue, why didn't you tell me before you came?" Han Shizhong arched his hand and said with a smile.
As he spoke, he guessed Yue Fei's intention, and he estimated that Yue Fei should have come for Zhang Jun.
Sure enough, Yue Fei also arched his hand and said, "General Han, Zhang Jun is in your mansion, right?" ”
Han Shizhong nodded and said, "Yes, he is in my mansion now, but he said that he will leave today." ”
Yue Fei's face showed a hint of coldness, and said, "You can't let him go!" He violated military law and must be investigated! ”
Han Shizhong frowned and said, "What military law did he violate?" ”
Yue Fei said: "As a general of Xiazhou, he knew that the Western Xia and Jurchen armies were coming, but he left his post without permission, and he almost lost the Western Xia, which is a big crime. ”
Han Shizhong was stunned for a moment and said, "He knows that the Western Xia and Jurchen armies are coming? We talked to him, and he didn't seem to know about it. ”
Yue Fei snorted coldly, he beckoned, only to see a few soldiers walking up.
These soldiers saluted Han Shizhong, and one of them said, "We are the soldiers of Shanying Village!" On the tenth day of the first month, the Jurchen and Western Xia armies had already come to Shanying Village, which was only more than 100 miles away from Xiazhou City! We immediately went to report to Zhang Jun, the commander of Xiazhou, who knew that after Zhang Jun knew the news, he immediately 'hung the seal and left', not only that, but he also spread such an urgent military situation without authorization, the soldiers of Xiazhou City mutinied, and 30,000 soldiers fled! ”
After the soldier finished speaking, Yue Fei said: "This matter is true, I have just returned from Xiazhou, and I have already sent people to ask the rest of the generals of the Zhang family's army, and some of them were in the Zhang Mansion at that time, and they all admitted to this matter!" In addition, the general of our forbidden army was also in Xiazhou that day, and he also saw this matter with his own eyes! When the enemy invaded the territory, he shouldered the responsibility of defending the land, but he was as timid as a mouse and left in a hurry! Such a bad thing must be punished severely! ”
Han Shizhong stood there dumbfounded at the moment, he knew that Zhang Jun had left Xiazhou City, but he didn't know that Zhang Jun had done such an unbearable thing, knowing that the enemy army was coming and leaving, this was indeed a violation of military law! He thought for a moment and said, "General Yue, how are you going to punish Zhang Jun?" ”
Yue Fei said: "Suddenly fleeing when you were about to fight, and almost losing your country, this is a capital crime!" ”
Han Shizhong said: "Can you spare his life?" ”
Yue Fei said: "How can you forgive such a big crime? Military law is like a mountain, and no one can violate it! If someone violates military law and goes unpunished, what will others think? Military law cannot be fair and just, then it is useless! Only by being fair and just can military law deter the hearts of the military! ”
At this moment, Wang Yan had already received the news, and hurriedly came to this side, after he met Yue Fei, Yue Fei told Zhang Jun again, Wang Yan said: "Zhang Jun won't do such a ridiculous thing, right?" ”
Yue Fei said: "You let him come out and confront me!" ”
Han Shizhong and Wang Yan glanced at each other, and the two nodded.
******
After half an hour, Zhang Jun walked out of it.
He was also taken aback when he saw Yue Fei in front of him, but soon, Zhang Jun let out a loud laugh.
"General Yue, I haven't seen you for many years, and you are still like this!" There was mockery in his eyes! I haven't seen him for many years, Yue Fei is still a farmer, and Yue Fei doesn't have any ornaments on his body! As the commander of the First Army, Yue Fei was wearing the armor that only ordinary soldiers wear, and there were no things like gold helmets or silver helmets and silver armor, nor did he wear a cloak, which made Zhang Jun very disdainful and extremely contemptuous.
"Zhang Jun, you violated military law, come with me!" Yue Fei said lightly.
"Oh? Am I violating military law? What military law did I violate? Zhang Jun said.
"The enemy invaded the territory, but you fled cowardly and became a fugitive! This is a great sin! Yue Fei said.
"I used to hang the seal and left! However, the enemy army's neighborhood? What does that mean? Zhang Jun's eyes showed a look of "confusion" and said.
"At such a moment, do you still have to quibble? Come up! Yue Fei looked at Zhang Jun and said coldly.
Yue Fei waved his hand, and the soldiers from the Mountain Eagle Village walked up again.
Seeing these soldiers, Zhang Jun was stunned for a moment.
"How can you still be alive?" Zhang Jun said in disbelief.
"Not only are they alive, but many soldiers in Xiazhou City are alive, and they all saw the events of that day! Zhang Jun, what else do you have to say now? Yue Fei said.
"I see! Yue Fei, you farmer, you must have lost Xiazhou, the Jurchens and Western Xia people entered Guanshan, the situation in Guanshan is critical, you can't explain to Your Majesty, so you want to find me as a scapegoat! Zhang Jun scolded.
"Xia Zhou has not been lost! Now our army is chasing and killing the Jurchens and Western Xia! Yue Fei said lightly.
"What?" Zhang Jun was stunned for a moment, in disbelief.
Han Shizhong and Wang Yan were also stunned, they didn't expect that there had been a war in Xiazhou, and besides, the Jurchens and Western Xia had retreated! Both of them breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, but they were both a little worried about Zhang Jun's fate! Anyway, they have been with Zhang Jun for many years, and since they are both generals who used to follow Zhao Gou, they don't want to see Zhang Jun die!
"General Yue, you have to think twice about this matter! I hope you don't kill Zhang Jun! Han Shizhong said.
"Zhang Junnai is a defender of Xiazhou, and his status is extremely high! Although he violated military law, it is not something I can judge! Matters about him need to be decided by the General Staff Headquarters! I'm just going to capture him now and report the matter to the General Staff Headquarters! Yue Fei said.
"That's how it is." Han Shizhong and Wang Yan understood this, and the two nodded.
Han Shizhong's mind turned sharply and he thought about a way to rescue Zhang Jun.
And Zhang Jun already knew that something was wrong at this moment, and his body rushed towards the back.
Yue Fei had been guarding against him for a long time, and at that moment, Yue Fei's body suddenly jumped up from his horse and headed forward.
With an iron gun in his hand, he stabbed forward, and the wind whistled.
Zhang Jun felt a huge pressure coming from behind him, and this pressure almost suffocated him!
He had no choice but to go back!
He had just turned one hand and was about to grab the iron spear when Yue Fei had already come to his side and stepped down with one foot.
Zhang Jun was trampled on the ground and couldn't move.
