Chapter 10: But Shame Asks Rong Zhao (10)
[The holiday is really not idle, and there is another chapter for book friends to read again tomorrow morning, there will be no less. 】
When Xiao Shisanyi was finally the only one left in the tent, a round face that had been smiling all along was finally pulled down.
The face of the privy deputy envoy of the Northern Court of Da Liao is now a little ugly, and from the letter from Han Gangkou who came back from the messenger, Xiao Shisan heard all the threats.
Stuck on the weakness of Yelu Yixin's faction at this stage, Han Gang's arrogance is also unscrupulous. He didn't care about insulting the messenger he sent. He didn't even let the words speak, and drove the people back.
Although Xiao Shisan has no experience in sending envoys, he has seen many envoys sent by the Song State, and he has never seen such a person. I don't even want to say a word, how can this not make people angry.
But Xiao Shisan still didn't decide to do it.
Being so humiliated, without the grasp of capturing the border military villages such as Xicheng Village, rash attack, will only get greater humiliation. And if it's just harassment, it's a complete joke.
A fire burned in his heart.
Looking down at the note in his hand, the anger burning in Xiao Shisan's heart suddenly subsided a lot, after all, autumn has arrived, and everything that should be dispatched and can be dispatched can be done.
Da Liao and Western Xia have been preparing for this for a year, and now it is time to close the net in a month at most.
Although it is said that this plan of the conspiracy between the two countries was not smooth sailing in the process of implementation, and even after the Song army attacked the city of Lingzhou, it almost reached the point of being out of control - once Lingzhou was lost, what kind of plan was meaningless - but the party members still survived after all, and the stupidity of the Song people at the moment also gave Daliao and Western Xia a great opportunity.
As long as the plan can be successful, Shang's father's position will be as stable as Mount Tai, and no one can shake it.
At that time, no matter how tough Han Gang is, what can he do, the only place he can influence is Hedong. And no matter how hard the shell is, the inner core is soft, Tokyo Bianliang, is there a son of heaven who directly expels the envoy without listening to any conditions like Han Gang?
"Privy Secret, Ulzhou group training to see." The report outside the door interrupted Xiao Shisan's train of thought.
'Heeson, what is he doing here?' Xiao 13 was puzzled, but suddenly turned around.
Yelu Ying, who is a grandson of the cousin, is hidden in the Five Courtyards, and Yelu Yixin has the same account, and he also has 2,000 armored cavalry, all of which are elite, and those who are close to him are also real powerful nobles. Under Xiao Shisan's command, he has always walked sideways. Even Xiao Shisan is not very affordable.
"What's the matter?" When Yelu Yingyin came to the tent with seven or eight companions, Xiao 13 asked bluntly.
Yelu Ying raised her head in a hidden voice: "Song Zhu humiliated my envoy of Da Liao, and the last general came to ask for war." ”
"Militaristic matters are child's play. No way! Xiao Shisan refused.
"Could it be that the deputy cardinal is afraid?" Yelu Yingyin grinned and said, "Those pigs of the Southern Dynasty are so arrogant, the descendants of Qishou Khan can't bear such humiliation. He turned back to his companions and asked, "Yes and no!" ”
The answer one by one was a hidden momentum for Yeluying.
Xiao Shisan didn't even move his eyebrows, and glanced at a few people: "If you want to send troops, of course you can, but give me a military order first!" Those who did not dare to make a military order stayed in the camp honestly. Whoever dares to leave the battalion without permission, military law is engaged! ”
"Isn't it a military order? How not to dare to stand! Yelu Yingyin said loudly: "If you can't get back the heads of three or five hundred Song pigs, I, Yelu Yingyin, am willing to be a military lawyer!" ”
Yelu Yingyin didn't want to delay time, so she immediately asked the clerk to write a military order, pressed her fingerprint, and swore a poisonous oath. picked up the military order, handed it to Xiao Shisan, and laughed loudly, "Please also ask the deputy cardinal to put it away." Wait a while, and when I cut back the heads of hundreds of Song pigs, I will come to pay the order! ”
Xiao Shisan looked at the back of Yelu Yingyin and the others who turned to leave, and there was only a faint ridicule in his eyes.
It's just that he wants to fill up the number of the heads of the Song people, do you think that he Xiao 13 will not be able to see the doorway. It's too underestimated, whether it's for him Xiao Shisan, or for Han Gang on the other side, how can it be so easy.
But for some people, it's good to be dead......
……………………
Waving his hand to let the second son who went to Yanmen Village to deliver the letter and return to rest, Qin Huaixin, the lord of Xicheng Village, asked the eldest son who was standing beside him, "Big brother, what do you think?" ”
His own brother-in-law just used an excited tone to describe in detail how the new Jinglu who was in Yanmen Village humiliated the envoys of the Liao people. Qin Wan was contemplating when he heard his father's interrogation. He raised his eyes and said: "Han Jingluo is brave and fearless, and he is not afraid of the threat of the northern captives, so it is no wonder that the second brother will be convinced when he sees it." ”
Qin Huaixin pursed his lips: "My father is asking you what you think of what your second brother said. ”
Qin Wan said with a smile: "The child is the same as the second brother, and it is a blessing for Hedong to have such a strategic envoy. ”
However, seeing Han Gang once made the second son so excited, and the eldest son was so respected, which made Qin Huaixin unexpected. But if you think about it carefully, if you were in your teens or twenties, most of you would also worship such a coach with a tough personality and no fear of the Liao.
In fact, Han Gang's attitude can be seen on the faces of the Liao envoys who returned one step earlier than the second son, and he left in a hurry with frost, how could it not be an expression of taking advantage. Therefore, after the second son told the ins and outs, it was only a little bit of surprise.
Qin Huaixin has been rolling in the Hedong Road Army all his life, his ancestors have gone back to three generations, and even followed Yang Ye and Yang Invincible into Shuozhou. In his memory, in recent decades, there has not been a single economic envoy who has been so tough on the outside world.
However, the newcomer Han Jingluo will be so-for-tat with the Liao people, and he will not back down, because he is still too young. Not yet thirty! In the past, which one was not forty or fifty upwards? But the insight and ability of this new Hedong economic envoy, Qin Huaixin will not doubt that his achievements have made many people secretly sigh that their own age has lived to be a dog.
Qin Huaixin sighed: "If only it was this little Han Jingluo who came to preside over the demarcation negotiations at that time." ”
Qin Wan pouted: "Cession of Daibeidi, Lu Zhige [Lu Dafang] and Han Yuru [Han Jin] Long Tu are both opposed. Even the later Shen Bachelor [Shen Kuo] also found how many Liao State Letters in the cabinet library of the Political Affairs Hall, proving that Da Huangping, Saltai, and Tianchizi all belonged to the Great Song Dynasty, and advocated verbal rejection. It's a pity that Kyochu ......"
Qin Huaixin's face changed, and he immediately shouted: "Don't say this outside!" ”
Qin Wan lowered his head and replied, "The child understands." ”
Of course, this can't be said outside, but it is today that forces Han Jin and Lu Dafang to cede the land, and it is also today that Han Jin, who has been setting up obstacles in the negotiations, is also today. If the emperor gritted his teeth and ignored the blackmail of the Liao, how could the borders of the Great Song Dynasty shrink more than ten miles to the south and push all the way to the outside of Xicheng Village?
All the responsibility should be borne by the Son of Heaven. However, Qin Huaixin didn't dare to think so, and only dared to be angry that the ministers of the court and the central government at that time could not stop the Son of Heaven's misdeeds. There is nothing wrong with the Son of Heaven, and those who are at fault must be traitors, those traitors who intimidate the Son of Heaven, and even said that there was only one victory in the eighty-one battles of Song and Liao.
Glancing at his son, who seemed to be a little disapproving, Qin Huai sighed confidently.
His eldest son, although he is not a hundred martial arts, but his vision and knowledge can be evaluated by excellence, and he does not lose when he leads the army. In the Hedong Army, Qin Huaixin was sure that he could easily squeeze sideways into the ranks of the first-rate figures of the younger generation, which was a step worse than the general folding.
It's a bit arrogant, these edges and corners are unique to young people, but they must also be polished off. Just like the new envoy of Hedong Road, he has not had time to be washed away in the officialdom as smooth as a stone at the bottom of the river, but the edges and corners of his body will gradually disappear sooner or later.
But the son's opinion is not wrong. The responsibility should not be borne by Lu Dafang, Han Jin, and other officials involved in the negotiations, they just acted according to orders.
At the beginning, the imperial court demarcated and cut the land, for the Son of Heaven and the princes of the court, it was just a matter of fighting for words and losing face. But on the land that has been carved out, there are thousands of people living.
There are 1,500 main households, and tens of thousands of men, women, and children are all forced to abandon their homes and land and move back to the interior. Just to settle them, the counties and villages below the prefecture of Daizhou are all very nerve-wracking. The landless people have not fully settled down until now, and there is still a fight between them and the natives of the resettlement village from time to time.
Qin Huaixin has been the owner of Xicheng Village for ten years. In the middle of the eighth year, he was sent because he opposed the land cession and deliberately delayed the task of setting up the tent at the negotiation site. But a year later, he was transferred back because he needed to pacify the people who had been withdrawn. Qin Huaixin has a very high reputation among the Daibei villages, and only he can appease the displaced people of Daibei.
Relatively speaking, Han Gang's strategy is really right for his taste.
But it's hard to say what the result will be.
It stands to reason that the Liao people would indeed not rashly attack the dangerous terrain of Xicheng Village, even if Han Gang's words were close to provocation, it was impossible for Xiao Shisan, the commander of the Liao army opposite, to order his soldiers to hit the fortified fortress guarded by the mountain.
But how can things in the world come completely according to reason? Who can pat their chests and say that the Liao people will never attack? If you go crazy and bump into it, can you still point to Xiao Shisan's nose and say that this is unreasonable? In case they disperse and ransack nearby villages along various paths, what else can they do but scold them for breaking the covenant? Can the above promise him to send troops to the rescue?
I only don't know when the two commanders and reinforcements promised by Lu Dao will arrive.
Qin Huaixin was upset, and an officer rushed to the door in a panic and shouted, "The owner of the village! There is movement in the Liao dog in the West and East Valley! Looks like it's coming to siege the city. ”
I'll just say it. Qin Huaixin sighed secretly.
