When Li Gang heard this, he stepped forward and asked: "Xianggong, there are not many craftsmen in the army, and I am afraid that it is difficult to build large-scale equipment, do you want to send a letter to Hebei to recruit craftsmen to the front line?" ”

Zheng Zhi shook his head and said: "There is no need to recruit, just build long ladders, these long ladders are not used to climb the city wall, but to install a supporting wooden leg on the side of the long ladder, and create a large number of rejection horses in the shape of a long ladder." ”

Wu Yong heard Zheng Zhi's words, and suddenly understood in his heart, opened his eyes and thought for a moment, and said: "Xianggong is also a clever plan, to create a large number of long ladder-like rejection horses, mixed in the crowd, the enemy will inevitably be difficult to find, when Yelu Dashi leads the cavalry to charge into battle, directly placed into a pocket shape, the enemy cavalry will inevitably be deep in it, and it will be difficult to rush and kill." In this way, you can catch turtles in the urn. Jerodashi will surely be defeated. ”

Wu Yong obviously guessed Zheng Zhi's plan, but Zheng Zhi still shook his head with a solemn face and said: "The battle of trapped beasts should not be underestimated, if it is properly arranged, a large number of rejecting horses in the crowd can naturally block the enemy's horseshoe, but these thousands of soldiers are not trivial, it must be a tragic battle, and more arrangements are needed." Blocking the enemy's horse steps is only the first step in the ambush. ”

Zheng Zhi was extremely calm and rational at this time, and he didn't have the slightest idea of luck about the combat strength of these recruits under his command, even if there were thousands of Liao soldiers who dismounted, I am afraid that these recruits would be difficult to withstand the pressure. Fighting a war is never something that can be won by a large number of people. Courage is always the first, without bravery, no matter how many people are just a group of sheep, with bravery, no matter how few people are a group of hungry wolves.

The metaphor of the sheep and the wolf could not be more appropriate. 100,000 sheep, where will be the opponent of thousands of wolves.

Wu Yong heard this, his brain was running rapidly, and he said: "Xianggong, you can besiege as the most important, the bed crossbow and hard bow will definitely work, if the cannon is also pulled into the crowd, as long as you use the horse to separate the enemy from me, these long-range weapons will inevitably play a huge role." ”

Zheng Zhi nodded when he heard this: "These are the basics, I told Zhu Long to prepare more gunpowder packs, and the soldiers of the Western Army will definitely bear the brunt of the pressure, and the Cangzhou infantry will line up the battle formation tightly." Let Mi beat his horse and storm the city. World War I. ”

When everyone heard this, they swept away the restless atmosphere just now, and everyone was excited at this time. Obviously, everyone agrees that this plan is reliable, and whether it will really work depends on the time of the battle.

No matter how many scouts there were, at that time, there would only be an attack. In addition, Zheng Zhi built the rejection of horses into the appearance of a long ladder, and above this open space, Yelu Dashi must have no worries, it depends on God's arrangement.

Zheng Zhi picked up the pen and drew the appearance of the long ladder on the paper, the long ladder is naturally the same long ladder, but it has been widened a lot, so that it can stop the footsteps of the strong horse. On the side of the wooden ladder, a supporting wooden leg is added, and the wooden legs are designed to be movable, and when they are not opened, they are no different from the usual long ladder.

Only when opened, the wooden ladder can be propped horizontally down and propped up on the ground, forming an obstacle to block the horse's hooves.

After Zheng Zhi finished painting, he immediately handed it to Li Gang, and said: "Mobilize everyone to cut wood, and build as much as possible." When the formation is ready, arrange the way to carry the wooden ladder. ”

Li Gang took the simple drawings drawn by Zheng Zhi, nodded again and again, and said: "Don't worry, within three days, five thousand such long ladders will definitely be built." ”

Li Gang also knew in his heart that such a thing as rejecting a horse would basically not work for a small amount of cavalry on a large scale, and could only slightly delay the enemy's horse pace. Only an extremely large number and dense number of rejecting horses can really block the hooves of the cavalry group.

Zhu Wu also stepped forward and said, "Xianggong, this matter must be kept secret." The number of people who build the long ladder can be large, but the people who process the wooden legs must be fenced to avoid leakage. The ladder must also be sent to the soldiers after the formation, so that the enemy does not know about it in advance. This ensures that nothing goes wrong. ”

This is reasonable, so according to what Zhu Wu said, the person who builds the long ladder and the person who installs the wooden leg should be separated, and the latter should be strictly controlled. Li Gang, you hurry up and make arrangements. Zheng Zhi felt very comfortable at this time, the method of deliberation should be like this, and it was more secure to gather everyone's wisdom.

When Li Gang heard this, after giving it up, he got a big account.

Zheng Zhi said again: "Luda, there is one more thing for you to do. ”

"That's what my brother commands." Ruda was already eager to try.

"Lead the knights to hunt the Liao scouts around, and if you encounter the Liao army, you must not fight with them. Just hunt the scouts desperately. Zheng Zhi said.

"It's still thoughtful, so it must be much more difficult for Yelu Dashi to obtain information, thinking that we don't want him to detect the movement of the siege, so when the siege is made, Yelu Dashi will be less vigilant when he gets the news." Wu obviously admired Zheng Zhi a little more in his heart.

Lu Daben wanted to ask a few words, but after listening to Wu's explanation, he didn't say much, and after getting up to say goodbye, he went out to order some schoolmen.

Everyone began to get busy, and the matter of building a long ladder must be done by everyone, and the generals naturally had to cooperate with Li Gang.

In the afternoon of the second day, Tong Guan, who was in Xiongzhou, suddenly fell on the seat, his face was nervous, and beads of sweat on his forehead kept falling.

The guard Wu Ze also looked anxious, and only said, "Taishi, what should I do like this." ”

Tong Guan sat up slightly, sighed and said, "Do you know why the Xu family is reluctant to go out of the city to hide?" ”

Wu Ze thought for a moment and replied: "When the little one entered Naqingchi City, he met Lao Hu, who said that there were more than two hundred knights under his command, and he thought that he had this to rely on. There is no shortage of swords, guns, armor, and horses in the city, and the people who have fought in the battle for decades must be not afraid in their hearts. ”

Tong Guan raised his arm weakly, waved it in the air, and said vaguely: "Fei Ye, Fei Ye." ”

Tong Guan already looked weak, the news of Cangzhou Qingchi had just reached Xiongzhou, and those escaped foot soldiers had not returned, but it was the Cai Yu guard who had escaped, who had already rushed to Xiongzhou, and just now he was kneeling in front of Tong Guan and crying bitterly, asking Tong Guan to quickly deploy troops to suppress it.

When Tong Guan heard that Cai You had been arrested in Qingchi City, he had already turned into this weak appearance, and the eunuch Tong, who had always been steady, seemed to be frightened at this time.

"Taishi, isn't that the reason? So what else is the reason? This time, more than 1,000 people and horses of Master Cai were defeated and unable to form an army, to say that these old soldiers under Zheng Xianggong are really good. Wu Ze asked, and praised him, obviously he also had some respect for Lao Hu.

Tong Guan stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and sighed: "Zheng Zhi has always valued affection and righteousness, but I didn't expect him to be like this as a wife." Xu didn't leave, because he didn't want to take those military and Han families in the city to Cai You. Even if you don't report it this time, it's probably the same result. Cai You is a thing, where do you know the tragedy of the battle formation, and it is just a matter of harming yourself this time. But Zheng Zhi was also miserable, Cai You was imprisoned in Qingchi, and there was a great sin on Zheng Zhi's head, and he was also confirmed. What do I do with this... ”

Wu Ze was shocked when he heard this, Wu Ze was also anxious just now, but he didn't think through these joints, and when he heard Tong Guan's point, a word immediately popped up in his heart: "rebellion"!

Frightened, Wu Ze hurriedly said, "Master, how should this be." Zheng Xianggong was still fighting on the front line at this time, if he knew about this, he would be anxious, I am afraid that it is... I'm afraid the consequences are... This time... It's unpredictable... Zheng Xianggong is not such a person who is manipulated... 'M afraid... ”

Wu Zelian said a few words "afraid", but he still didn't say what he was worried about. Wu Ze followed Tong Guan and saw Zheng Zhi countless times, although he didn't say a few words, he also knew a little about Zheng Zhi. As the words say, Zheng Zhi is not a person who is manipulated. Then this consequence is really unimaginable. Perhaps this Great Song Dynasty will fall into chaos.

Tong Guan heard Wu Ze's hesitant words, stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "Nonsense! How dare you speculate. At this time, you have to find a way to remedy it, you quickly go to Qingchi again, take me a secret letter and Xu personally, and ask Lao Hu to hand over Cai You to you and bring it back. Be sure to bring Cai You to me and let me talk to him personally. ”

Wu Ze saw that Tong Guan, who was angry, dared to say more, and hurriedly bowed down and replied: "The master forgives the sins, and the little one will go to prepare the horse and get the secret letter later." ”

After speaking, Wu Ze turned around and left, probably hoping that Tong Guan would remedy this matter, so as not to make such an unimaginable situation.

Wu Ze turned around and left, Tong Guan stretched out his hand and summoned another henchman guard beside him.

The guard walked a few steps closer to Tong Guan's side, and saw that Tong Guan's arm was still beckoning him, so he hurriedly got a little closer and came straight to Tong Guan's cheek.

"The person under Cai You just now must die!" Tong Guan said with a hideous face.

When the guard heard this, he only answered "yes". Turn around and get out of the tent door. When I went out and looked left and right, I walked to a tent not far away, and there was a filthy man eating and drinking, obviously this man was also hungry.

The guard walked in, and without saying a word, drew the short knife at his waist.

This man who was eating and drinking, it was the person who escaped from Hu Sanniang's hands, at this time he picked up the wine glass, and was about to drink, when he heard someone walk in, looked back, and didn't care, but Yu Guang saw the color of the sword, and quickly turned his head to look, but it was too late. Even this man couldn't have imagined that he had finally escaped to Xiongzhou, and there were still people who came to kill him.

The army of Zhuozhou is in full swing to build a long ladder to climb, and the soldiers also know that the time of the war is not far away, and when the long ladder is built, it is the time to climb the city wall. Most of the soldiers were becoming more and more nervous, looking at the not very tall city wall of Zhuozhou from time to time, and their hearts were full of worry and worry.

I am afraid that if I fall from the head of the city, I will be dead or disabled.

But these soldiers don't know that in the siege battle, they can really fall down simply, but they are lucky, and most of them can't die, and they just have broken hands and feet. If you are hit by a rolling stone or ignited by oil, that is the real sorrow.

Wu Ze took two people and seven or eight healthy horses. Running all the way along the avenue, he did not go south through Hejian Mansion, but went directly east into the fortified places in Cangbei, and then went directly to the south, saving a lot of money. This road is also the road that Wu Ze just walked two days ago. Three hundred miles.

Early the next morning, Wu Ze had already arrived at Deqing Chi City.

Xu took Tong Guan's handwritten letter, but he didn't think much about it, Xu also trusted Tong Guan very much, and his son's name was given by Tong Guan. Xu also doesn't know anything about officialdom and politics, so naturally he doesn't have any unnecessary doubts.

Wu Ze put the heavy smell of medicine on his body, the wooden board was still clamped between his thighs, and Cai You, who was still a little groggy, was directly tied to the healthy horse and galloped back.

Halfway through, Cai You woke up again, looked left and right, and scolded: "Who are you, where are you taking the envoy?" ”

Wu Ze in front of his head didn't reply, let alone look back, just beat his horse and walked quickly. I was extremely anxious, and I just wanted to send Cai You to Tong Guan quickly.

All the way, Cai You was already about to shake the frame, and the leg bone that had just been connected was probably in the wrong position again. There was only a wail.

At this time, Cai Youcai was very scared in his heart, and he saw that the road was all to the north, and the road was not familiar. I thought that these people were going to send themselves to Zheng Zhijun in the Northland.

In the early hours of the morning, Cai You felt a lot more relieved, there was already a Xiongzhou camp in front of him, and when he recognized this empty camp in Xiongzhou, Cai You's tears couldn't help but flow down.

Desperate for life, but that's it!

A person who has been pampered since he was a child, suddenly experienced such a life and death experience, and then he was safe, and he had mixed feelings in his heart, where could he still control the tears in his eyes.

After a few guards put Cai You into the camp tent, Tong Guan had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Cai You coming in, he hurriedly came to help Cai You in person and helped Cai You to the seat.

At this time, Tong Guan was already smiling: "Bachelor Cai is really hard, the women and children in Cangzhou are not righteous, and they have caused such a disaster, so that Bachelor Cai has suffered such a big grievance, and it must not be forgiven." ”

Tong Guan said, and motioned to a few people to go out with his eyes. Only Tong Guan and Cai You were left in the tent.

Cai You saw Tong Guan's smiling face, and listened to Tong Guan's extremely polite tone, and suddenly didn't react, and replied in a daze: "Master Tong, what does this matter have to do with those women and children, this matter was done by Zheng Zhi, and it was Zheng Zhi who harbored evil intentions, rebelled, and conspired against him." If the subordinate escapes this time, he will inevitably make that Zheng Zhi die a good death. ”

Tong Guan was not angry when he heard this, but said very politely: "Master Cai, then Zheng Zhi is bent on fighting Liao, how can he rebel." This time, Bachelor Cai suffered such a big sin, it was really a misunderstanding, and it was all done by some unreasonable women. Please also ask Bachelor Cai to bear more, a certain mansion has some savings for so many years, and two or three million yuan of money is not a problem, it can be regarded as Zheng Zhi and the bachelor apologized, what does the bachelor think? ”

When Cai You heard this, he looked up at Tong Guan, and he didn't know what Tong Guan meant. I saw Cai You with a clear look in his heart, nodded and said, "Master Tong, at this time, you still want to shield Zheng Zhi, a dog thief?" Millions of dollars want to buy me? Neither will you look at my wounds, to whom they have given them. Only Zheng Zhi can't die well, can I solve the hatred in my heart. ”

When Tong Guan heard this, he got up and poured a cup of hot tea on the desk, put it beside Cai You, and still smiled: "Master Cai, why is there such a big anger, they are all officials of the same dynasty, why do you want to do things desperately." Three million pieces of money is nothing, but it is to bring back the bachelor to suppress the shock, Bachelor Cai has always had a gentlemanly demeanor, everyone in Tokyo says that the bachelor is a person of benevolence and virtue, after this battle, if the bachelor wants to worship a phase, a certain must run back and forth, spare no effort. What do the bachelors think? ”

Tong Guan's words have been flattering in every way, that is, he wants to exchange huge benefits with Cai You, and wants to calm down at this time.

Cai You laughed at this time, the lower Tong Guan's posture was, the more Cai You felt that he was tall, and the pain in his body was no longer there, only the refreshment in his heart. I only heard Cai You laugh and said: "Master Tong, you defend that Zheng Zhi so much, isn't that Zheng Zhi the illegitimate heir of you and the woman who hooked the fence before you entered the palace?" Ha ha... Also, Master Tong entered the palace at the age of twenty, and it is normal to have an heir. ”

Tong Guan heard Cai You's words, frowned, and was very angry in his heart, but he immediately smiled again: "Master Cai doesn't need to joke, can this matter be or not?" It's a matter of a bachelor's word. One door and two phases, in the Song Dynasty for several hundred years, is also a beautiful talk. I don't know how many people in the world are envious. ”

Unexpectedly, Cai You suddenly accepted a smile and said: "Master Tong doesn't need to bother, after this battle, the lower officials will return to Tokyo, and the officials will have their own rewards. ”

After Yuanfeng in the Northern Song Dynasty, there were actually only two phases, and the previous system of two governments and three divisions had been abolished. It is the left and right servants of Shangshutai, the left servants shoot and the servants under the door, and the right servants shoot and the middle book servants. In fact, this restructuring is very problematic, and it concentrates all the power in the hands of a small number of people.

Before the restructuring of Yuanfeng, the second government was the Privy Council and the political hall, and the third division was the household department, salt and iron, and degree branch. Several chiefs are not subordinate to each other, and they can all be called "phases". Under the differentiation of power, it is naturally more difficult to produce people who cover the sky with one hand.

Now there are essentially only two phases, and Zhao Ji has shrunk the phases into one in disguise, such as Cai Jing, who is in charge of the three provinces alone, and has great power, in a certain way, the emperor is not as good as Cai Jing.

Tong Guanyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled: "Master Cai is so sure? If Mr. Cai feels that he still needs some help, he might as well say bluntly, as long as this matter can be revealed, it is easy to say any conditions. ”

Tong Guan's words are already the meaning of a request. Tong Guan's protection of Zheng Zhi is half out of the maintenance of his authority, and half of it is also from the personal relationship between the two. But it was not clear which half was more, but Tong Guan really said these words in front of Cai You.

Cai You laughed again and again when he heard this, picked up the tea that Tong Guan personally poured beside him, took a sip, and said with a smile: "I didn't think that Master Tong would have this day today, and he would come to me like this." I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, it seems that Mrs. Tong doesn't dare to go back to Tokyo, right? Zheng Zhi rebelled, and Master Tong was afraid that there would be no good end. It's just that I really don't have anything to ask Master Tong to help me, I'm sorry. ”

Cai You had a smug look on his face, and he also knew in his heart that what he was holding at this time was enough to make Tong Guan and Zheng Zhi go back together. When he spoke, he no longer claimed to be a subordinate official, and his tone was also triumphant.

When Tong Guan heard this, he didn't know if the negotiation was unsuccessful tonight, his face suddenly became angry, and he shouted: "Cai You, what kind of thing are you, if you toast and don't eat and drink, you have to weigh it yourself." ”

Tong Guan couldn't bear it after all, he couldn't talk about it, and he was insulted by Cai You, a junior, and he had reached this point, and he didn't have to compromise anymore.

Cai You heard that Tong Guan was still threatening him, and he was even more false, and said: "Tong Da eunuch, if you are lucky enough to live, you will come to my Cai Mansion to beg for food in the future, and you should have a good meal of wine and meat." ”

Cai You is much worse than Cai Jing. If Cai Jing is a self-made rich generation, this Cai You is obviously the second generation of the rich loser who is not angry. The two of them are scheming, and the difference is 108,000 miles.

The sub-line of the mountain wolf, the ambition is rampant!

Tong Guan heard the sentence "Tong Da Eunuch", his brows loosened slightly, and his eyes narrowed slightly. Slowly stood up and walked out of the door of the Great Tent.

Cai You saw Tong Guan walk out by himself, and said, "Why don't Master Tong come and carry me out?" ”

Cai You even had the heart to laugh at Tong Guan and let Tong Guan carry himself out.

But he didn't want Tong Guan to come back after a while, holding a short blade in his hand, and this short blade didn't know if it was pulled out of the guard.

Cai You saw Tong Guan walking in with a knife, his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly said, "Master Tong, what are you doing with a knife?" ”

Hearing this, Tong Guan replied: "It is to teach you how the eunuch jumps over the wall in a hurry." ”

Cai You still couldn't understand the words, so he hurriedly said: "The Taishi has something to say, Shicai is just a joke, and the matter can be talked about again." ”

Cai You also knew that he was scared at this time, but he still thought that Tong Guan was scaring himself, or threatening himself with a knife. At this time, he hurriedly changed his words, just to stabilize Tong Guan, so that he could return to Beijing. But Cai You probably thought in his heart that Tong Guan would not really kill himself nine times out of ten.

Tong Guan didn't say much, and took a few steps forward to stay next to Cai You, who had broken a leg, and stabbed with a knife.

This is probably the first time Tong Guan has actually killed someone by himself. But Tong Guan stayed in front of the mountain of blood and blood for a long time, and he didn't even shake his hands when he killed.

It's just that the technique is much worse, not as skilled as Niu Da, and blood is splashed all over Tong Guan's face.

Cai You wailed a few times, fell to the ground, convulsed, and looked at Tong Guan with wide eyes, until his pupils slowly dilated, blood flowed all over the ground, and he died thoroughly.

Tong Guan threw the knife to the ground, and the person also sat on the seat, looking at Cai Yu who was dead on the ground, his heart was a mess.

Things have come to this point, Tong Guan is no longer the Tong Guan who is confident in trouble, and there are countless methods of operation and cover-up, but none of them can be safe.

As long as Tong Guan thought of the word "Tokyo", he only felt weak all over his body, and he couldn't sit up.
