The morning breeze echoed, and the sky grew brighter in a mist.

Linfen City, which had been noisy all night, finally returned to quiet!

The rebellion initiated by dozens, oh, can't be so few, should be thousands of Hexi knights under the command of the Liao people or Wu Haogu, under the calm command of Zheng Shuxiang and the generals of the Hedong Army such as Liu Dutong, Cao Zheng, and Wang Zheng, were finally basically pacified. Moreover, he captured the thief leader Feng Mingshan alive, killed hundreds of heads, and captured dozens of armor collars.

The conspiracy of the Liao people or Wuhao Gu to seize Hedong and then sweep Henan has been completely crushed!

However, although the thieves inside the city were destroyed, the thieves outside the city kept coming! Tens of thousands of armored cavalry, and countless infantry (of course, the infantry only exists on the song), have taken advantage of the great chaos in Linfen City, from Huoyi and Hongdong to the south, and have been deployed in the north of Linfen County.

The small city of Linfen has now been exposed in front of the crowds of siege troops!

Although the army arrived in a hurry, it did not carry any siege equipment. But Linfen City, which had just experienced a civil strife, and now the panicked hearts of the people, had no chance of surviving under their blades.

At this moment, in the military affairs yamen of Hedong, Hebei, and Youzhou, the commanders in Linfen City, and in the inner hall, Liu Yanqing, Cao Lei, Wang Yuan and other generals were giving advice to Zheng Juzhong, who had already been in a hurry.

Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood!

"Prime minister, the interrogation has been cleared! Feng Mingshan, the general of the Hexi Army, was originally a Liao man, but a retainer of Ma Renwang, the prime minister of the southern mansion of Liao. A few years ago, he was the nephew of Ma Renwang, and Ma Zhi was sent by Ma Zhi, the envoy of the National Army, to infiltrate the Great Education Regiment and gain the trust of the Northwest Zhang Xuanshuai, but secretly he was still working for the Liao State! If it weren't for the cardinal's discernment and timely detection of its conspiracy, the entire Hedong would have been lost......"

Liu Yanqing's son, Liu Guangshi, the commander-in-chief of the Third Route Military Affairs Division, hurriedly walked into the inner hall at this time and loudly reported to Zheng Juzhong the results of the interrogation of Feng Mingshan.

Fengming Mountain is now a treasure that cannot be killed! He is one of the masterminds of this Jinju change, and what the truth is is what his two mouths say. Don't even think about killing people or anything. The boss of the Hexi Army and the Great Education Corps is Zhang Yuan! That's the son of the murderer Zhang Dun, who framed him and threw dirty water, will he be inferior to Zheng Juzhong? And Zhang Yuan also has a backstage in the palace, which is the most respected sister-in-law of the saint today, Empress Dowager Liu. In addition, there is a treacherous and abnormal Ji Yi, who is Zhang Yuan's niece and ally. If you want to give Zhang Yuan a hat of supporting the army and making chaos, can you do it without any real evidence?

So after recovering the open space outside the gate that could be used to cut off the braincase, Liu Yanqing did not let Feng Mingshan be taken out and cut down, but let his son go to "interrogate with good words".

However, Feng Mingshan is also a man, and he refused to splash dirty water on Zhang Yuan, but took the charge of being a spy in Liao.

And it's not an ordinary spy, it's a big spy!

Zheng Juzhong and Liu Yanqing both knew about the peace negotiations between the Liao and Song dynasties, and the Liao State would soon become a friendly country, and the spies of friendly countries could not be cut down casually......

"Prime Minister," Zheng Juzhong's side, a goose feather fan, came up and said in a low voice, "If the person surnamed Feng goes to Dali Temple and says the same, you will go to Haizhou at most." ”

Liu Yanqing, who was on the side, also said: "Prime minister, it's still too late, the last general and the dog will lead the troops to escort the prime minister out of the city!" ”

Liu Yanqing did not come to Hedong empty-handed to take office, and two or three hundred good hands could still be taken. In addition, there are more than 1,000 personal soldiers in the General Military Affairs Department, as long as they risk their lives, they can still protect Zheng Juzhong and run away.

It's just that as soon as they ran away, Linfen City would fall. The situation in Hedong is naturally so bad that it is difficult to clean up.

However, for Liu Yanqing, this result is actually not bad. Hedong was lost in Hexi, and the knights colluded with the Liao people to make a rebellion, and Liu Yanqing, as the commander of the general military affairs department, of course, had the responsibility of negligence, but the charge of "delaying the military plane and not saving Taiyuan" could not be detained.

Most of Taiyuan City has not been lost yet!

In addition, Liu Yanqing also struggled to capture Feng Mingshan, the culprit of collusion with Liao Kou, although he couldn't completely resist it, but he could always compensate for part of it, right? It is estimated that you can get a punishment of several levels and the effectiveness of pre-military retention.

Not only can't you lose your head, but you can even keep your property! And because of this, he has become Zheng Shuxiang's confidant, maybe there will be a chance to be useful in the future......

Of course, saving Zheng Juzhong's life is the top priority.

"Do you dare to say that when you go to Dali Temple?" Zheng Juzhong asked with a frown.

"Dare!" Liu Guangshi, who had a shrewd and capable face, replied, "The lower officials have already explained the stakes to him. He's a thief now, and he's got three points into his bones! And his bite of Yelu Yanxi is the best choice. It is impossible for Yelu Yanxi to confront him, and Ma Renwang and Ma Zhi will definitely not be able to catch him...... It's not what we're talking about? Moreover, the imperial court is now negotiating peace with the Liao State, and will not kill him. ”

Zheng Juzhong breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Guangshi, this kid can really do things! This pot is thrown beautifully, and it is not offended. As long as Zhang Yuan doesn't exert his strength, it will not be difficult for him Zheng Juzhong to get rid of his crimes. Because he is also a man in the palace! Zhao Ji's favorite Zheng Guifei and Zheng Juzhong are a little distant relative, and in terms of seniority, he is still Zheng Guifei's brother. Although Concubine Zheng Guifei is now in the harem, there is no need for Zheng Juzhong, but she will not let him stay in Haizhou for the rest of his life......

"Good!" Zheng Juzhong is worthy of being the prime minister who commands the three armies, and he is still very decisive, "Liu Du is in charge, when will your people be ready?" ”

"Returning to the prime minister," Liu Yanqing said, "they can protect the prime minister at any time to break through." ”

"Let's go!" Zheng Juzhong paused, "Go and call Qian Gongzai personally...... Set off in half an hour! Let's move our troops to Jiangzhou, pack up our soldiers and horses, and fight the thieves again! ”

"Whoa!"

All the generals in the hall breathed a sigh of relief and responded violently.

……

The breakthrough of Zheng Juzhong, Qian Gai, Liu Yanqing and others was of course very smooth. Because Zhang Zhuo and Su Zhilian did not have siege equipment, and their troops were less than 10,000 (including auxiliary soldiers), they could not help the city wall of Linfen at all. Therefore, he adopted the tactic of encircling Sanque and scaring people, and scared Zheng Da's privy away and pulled him down.

As soon as Zheng Juzhong ran, the people in Linfen City were naturally in turmoil, and no one had the heart to defend, so they all rushed to flee for their lives. The city will be broken without a fight!

"The army is in charge, the teaching, Zheng Juzhong and Qian Gai have run away, Jinju City is ours now, hahaha......"

Laughing and reporting was Han Shizhong. Another loyal and brave minister who swore to defend the Great Song Dynasty to the death has now become a fierce general.

Because of his previous meritorious service in Linfen City, he was rewarded for entering the city in the first batch. Now that he has caught up the spoils, he has gone out of the city to report to Zhang Zuo and Su Zhilian.

Zhang Zuo asked: "Did you find Feng Guanjun?" ”

"I haven't found it, it seems that I have returned to heaven and killed a benevolent person!" Han Shizhong asked again, "Teaching, what should we do next?" Are you going to fight all the way to Kaifeng Mansion? ”

Kill into Kaifeng Mansion? Zhang Zhuo thought to himself: What are you going to do? Qing Jun's side still wants to take the Great Song Dynasty in one fell swoop?

It doesn't seem easy, right? After all, there are only 5,000 iron horsemen under his command, and he has to fight many states and counties to enter Kaifeng Mansion, and he has to cross the Yellow River. Although the city of Kaifeng was empty, there was nothing worth mentioning in force. But the faint king can also transfer troops from Hebei to the king of Qin.

The Han family in Xiangzhou still has tens of thousands of available soldiers, once they enter Kaifeng, they will be in charge of the Han family, and they will make wedding dresses for others.

In addition, Youzhou's Wuhao Gu is also quite strong. He has been plotting against him for a long time, and he is probably hoping that who can enter Kaifeng Mansion first to be this chaotic minister and thief, right?

"No!" Zhang Zuo is not a political imbecile, "We are not chaotic ministers and thieves, we are just against the cession of Hexi."

Now that he has courted the national thief, he will give the official family a piece of music to show his heart. And it's time for us to go back to Hexi and defend our homeland. ”

His ambition is to be the king of Hexi, and he will be satisfied if he takes the territory that originally belonged to Western Xia. Enter the Central Plains, hehe, you have to wait for the right time and place! If Wu Haogu couldn't hold back first, he would be very willing to be a loyal minister of the Great Song Dynasty!

"Back to Hexi?" Su Zhihuan frowned, "How do you go back?" Is it in the middle of the pass? I'm afraid the Western Army won't let us pass, right? Now the Western Army has six new generals, all of whom are recruited reserve veterans, and I am afraid that it will not be easy to deal with. ”

"Let's take the Linfu Road." Zhang Zhuo said, "Out of Linfu Road is Shuofang, Shuofangjun has a good relationship with us, and it shouldn't be blocked." ”

The three armies of Hexi, Lingzhou, and Shuofang are, to a certain extent, one. Moreover, Shuo Fang is also on the list of cedes, and the Shuo army is naturally willing to make trouble with the Hexi Army and stir up the cession.

"That's too much to pass Taiyuan!" Han Shizhong said, "How did Taiyuan pass?" ”

"Rush through!" Zhang Zuo gritted his teeth and said, "We have 5,000 iron horses, are you afraid that we can't cross from the west bank of the Fen River?" ”

"That's right!" Su Zhilian thought for a while, "There are still four generals in Hongdong County, what should I do?" ”

The four generals on the Hongdong County side were led by Gao Shixuan, the capital of Hedong Road, and did not send troops to fight the Hexi knights, but guarded the camp as a turtle with a shrunken head. Therefore, Zhang Zuo and Su Zhilian ignored them, and only cared about going to Linfen County to kill the national thieves.

"Gao Shixuan doesn't want to fight with us, and we don't embarrass him." Zhang Zuo said, "After all, he is a member of the Gao family, and he always has to give some face...... In addition, I can also ask him to help hand over the music I gave to the official's family.

We in Hexi oppose the land cessation of national thieves, not the official family. ”

In fact, these two things are fundamentally contradictory to each other, isn't the national thief who wants to cut the land Zhao Ji? However, Da Song's qi is not exhausted, so Zhang Zhuo does not dare to be Dong Zhuo.

However, the decision of Zhang Zuo and Su Zhilian soon caused another ironic oolong incident, which made the situation in the entire Hedong even more confusing.
