Chapter 448 The key is in the north

At the beginning of August 23 in the third year of Xuanhe, as soon as Zhao Yougong returned to the palace of Tongzhou, Sakura saw that he was in the dust, so he took a new robe and entered the house. When she came back this time, Zhao Yougong had four more beauties who looked exactly the same, and in this regard, Sakura felt both curious and tasteful, and when she changed her clothes, she inevitably said a few more words.

"You ran to the Ethereal Peak, but you are comfortable, leaving so many people to support this stall for you. A few days ago, the princess had rushed from Fengzhou to Huanzhou City, and the rest depends on you! ”

Sakura has always been very steady, but there are some things, and she won't say it openly, this time she mentioned it euphemistically, how much because of the four of Mei Jian. Touching Sakura's hand, Zhao Yougong smiled strangely, "What's the matter, Sister Su will also eat it?" This, you really can't blame this king, you can ask Wan'er or Azhu about the things. Oh, by the way, what's going on over there in Jingzhao Mansion? ”

Zhao Yougong said that she was a little embarrassed, she pulled out her hand, turned around and cleaned up the dirty robe she took off, "After Pan Renmei led the people into Jingzhao Mansion, it was quite stable, General Niu had already sent additional people to Shaohua Mountain, and Pan Renmei did not dare to act rashly." Since the princess led the troops to Huanzhou, the soldiers and horses of Qin Fenglu have been a little commotion. ”

Rushing back from Huangzhou, Zhao Yougong only knew a rough idea, and he didn't know too much about the affairs of Jingzhao Mansion, and now when he heard what Ying Wan said, he couldn't help frowning, "He Zuolin and Yuan Shiying also went to Jingzhao Mansion with Pan Renmei?" ”

"This is not too clear to the slave family, but I have heard Sister Cui mention it before, it seems that He Zuolin and Yuan Shiying took away all the soldiers and horses of the Zhenrong Army and the Deshun Army. It is estimated that he followed Pan Renmei to Jingzhao Mansion. ”

Listened to this. Zhao Yougong's face became gloomy. He Zuolin and Yuan Shiying are really grass on the wall, and they will fall wherever they feel they have the opportunity. Sometimes this kind of wall grass is the most dangerous, and this time, since you want to completely control Guanzhong, it is best not to keep these wall grasses. Hmph, I want to play the trick of left and right under the eyes of him Zhao, it seems that these two people are really alive to the end.

After sitting down and drinking some water, Sanniang pushed the door and walked in, "Your Highness." Your Excellency and the General are already waiting in the living room, and I would like to ask Your Highness to come over as much as possible. ”

"Hmm!" After drinking the tea in the cup in one gulp, the whole brocade robe went out, and when he came to the house, he heard a burst of exclamations. It turned out that the Mei Jian sisters had been guarding the door, and Zhao Yougong had already taken off his costume and changed back to his original appearance in the house just now, at this time he was wearing a golden dragon brocade robe, wearing a purple and gold crown, and two golden ribbons were placed on his ears. Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome and extraordinary. is a first-class beautiful man in the world. Ju Jian covered his small mouth, his eyes were dripping, and he kept muttering in his heart, His Royal Highness is really handsome.

"Hehe, what, don't you know?" Stretching out his hand and flicking Ju Jian's forehead, Zhao Yougong asked the most stable Mei Jian, "Have you seen the princess?" ”

"It's not yet, the maid doesn't know the rules of the house, I'm afraid that the princess will be abrupt" Mei Jian looked at Zhao Yougong with some uneasiness, she said this, it's not that she shirks, she is used to doing things in the Vulture Palace, and when she first enters the palace, she really can't adapt to it.

At this time, Sakura walked out of the house, she looked at the four sisters, and gently pushed Zhao Yougong's arm, "Your Highness, you better go and get down to business first, and the slave family will take them to the princess in a while." ”

Nodding, Zhao Yougong smiled at Mei Jian, "Girl, go over with Mrs. Su for a while, the princess has a good temper, don't be afraid." ”

"Well, thank you, Your Highness, thank you, madam" Mei Jian still knows how to be polite, she bowed down and gave Sakura a blessing, and the other three sisters did the same. Seeing that Mei Jian and the four of them were so sensible, the previous unhappiness disappeared a lot.

In the living room of the palace, the civil and military people were already sitting on both sides, and after Zhao Yougong came to the hall, everyone bowed before they got down to business. Zhao Yougong clasped his hands and asked in a harmonious voice, "Who will tell this king about the recent details?" ”

Zhang Yi smiled slightly, sat up straight and said slowly, "Back to Your Highness, there are a total of 43,000 people from the original department of Jingzhao Mansion plus the soldiers and horses of Qin Fenglu brought by Pan Renmei, and there are more than 10,000 people in Zhang Junna. Now Li Bingzuo of Western Xia, Chen Bing, Hongzhou, Helian Tieshu and Xiong Guangbi gathered troops in Shizhou, and there is a great tendency to wave troops south. Now the army in the north is empty, and the only ones who can resist the southern invasion of Western Xia are 20,000 Weizhou soldiers and horses. ”

"Well, Mr. Zhang, I don't know if you have figured out the specific situation of the Tangut people?" Zhao Yougong is really worried about the Xixia people, Jingzhao Mansion doesn't have to worry too much, Xiao Zhiyun Chen soldiers Huanzhou, threatening the Zhenrong army, and there are 5,000 strong soldiers stationed in Shaohua Mountain, Pan Renmei does not dare to act rashly, so Jingzhao Mansion, which looks the most dangerous, can't set off too much storm. As long as you can stabilize the north of Dìng, so that the Western Xia people don't dare to act rashly, and then take out the energy to slowly swallow Jingzhao Mansion.

"Yesterday, the Malay newspaper reported that Li Bingzuo transferred the Xiangqing army from Xiping Mansion this time, and now there are more than 30,000 Xixia elite soldiers in Hongzhou City. Helian Tieshu and Xiong Guangbi also have more than 20,000 troops after joining forces, and if these two lines of soldiers and horses really gather on the northern border of Yan'an Prefecture, the pressure on our troops will be very great. Moreover, the most important thing is that Zhang Jun's attitude is unclear now, if the imperial court has a secret decree, once Zhang Jun releases a road to let Hongzhou Li Bingzuo's troops go south, it will inevitably disrupt our deployment. ”

Zhang Yi's words may also be a little sensational, Zhang Jun is the deputy envoy of Yongxing Military Road and Qinfeng Road, will he let the Xixia people invade Guanzhong? If there is only one Zhang Jun, he definitely doesn't have the courage, but don't forget, there is still a Zhao Ji standing above his head, a person like Zhao Ji, he can't do anything stupid, and he can really do it by killing his nephew with the hands of the Tangut people, but he will pay the Tangut people a lot of benefits. So, there are some things that have to be guarded against.

Zhao Yougong frowned, quite surprised, Xiangqingjun was the Lingzhou soldier back then, and Lingzhou is now Xiping Mansion, Li Bingzuo transferred Xiangqingjun to the south, which shows how big this person's appetite is. The Xiangqing army is the elite soldiers and horses of the Gyeonggi Xingqing Mansion, most of which are cavalry, if this army breaks through the northern mountains and enters the land of Guanzhong, the power can be imagined. Li Bingzuo gathered heavy troops in Hongzhou, and it was impossible for him to attack the city and plunder the land. He was there to rob. Just like the Khitan people used to say that they beat the grass valley. In any case, Li Bingzuo cannot be allowed to break through the northern defense line. entered Guanzhong, and the key point was on Zhang Jun.

Dongfang Jin shook the goose feather fan, his face was relaxed and indifferent, seeing that Zhao Yougong was silent for a long time, and the generals were waiting one by one, he opened his mouth and asked, "Your Highness, I don't know if you have an idea?" ”

Zhao Yougong glanced at Dongfang Jin with an unkind expression. Hehe smiled, "Daguan, you obviously already have an idea, why do you still ask this king?" Hmph, in such a situation, what other way can there be, but to make Zhang Jun obedient, if he is disobedient, he will be replaced. ”

As soon as Zhao Yougong said this, he carried a bloody and fierce atmosphere. Change Zhang Jun? How to change? To put it bluntly, it is to slaughter Zhang Jun. Your court will send a deputy envoy to deal with it, send an obedient one, it's okay, or make a disobedient one, then I'm sorry, it's still slaughtered, there are too many reasons to kill people, assassin assassination, mountain bandit attack. Zhao Yougong smiled, and the generals also laughed, and Gao Zhong grinned and said, "Your Highness, I heard that Zhang Boying's swordsmanship is super god, let the last general go to meet him." ”

Gao Chong took the initiative to ask, but Dongfang Jin on the opposite side pinched the goose feather fan and shook his head, "General Gao, it's not appropriate for you to go!" ”

As soon as he heard Dongfang Jin's words, Gao Chong was a little unhappy, his eyes widened, and he said angrily, "Mr. Dongfang, what do you mean by this, do you think that Gao is not that Zhang Jun's opponent?" ”

"No, no, General Gao's marksmanship is outstanding, and he is very brave, he is the first brave general of my national army, how can Zhang Boying resist it? It's just that if General Gao goes, Bacheng won't even see Zhang Boying's face, so how can he kill him? ”

"This" was preached by the big officials in the East, Gao Zhong suddenly was a little speechless, he scratched his head, looked left and right, rolled his eyes and asked, "Then who is suitable?" ”

"It's very simple, apart from His Royal Highness, who can let Zhang Boying greet him personally?" As he spoke, Dongfang Jin nodded at Zhao Yougong.

In fact, Dongfang Jin's thoughts are the same as Zhao Yougong's, and both of them have made up their minds, that is, to join their army and behead their commanders. With a vigorous and resolute approach, he deterred the security army, and then used grace to win over the army's heart, and then defended the northern border with the planters. As long as the Northern Xixia people can't go south, isn't it possible to solve it when Jingzhao Mansion wants to?

Hmph, if Zhang Jun dies, the gang of people under Pan Renmei will inevitably deviate from morality. Zhao Ji and others had a good idea to let Zhang Boying come to formulate the national army, but they underestimated him Zhao too much, so this time let Zhao Ji see his Zhao Yougong's methods.

"Okay, this matter is decided, when General Wu and General Lin go with the king to the security army, the rest of the people pay attention to the people of Jingzhao Mansion, in addition, Gao Changke went to Huanzhou City, once there is a change in the Xixia people in the north, he will gallop to the north with Xiao Shuai, and suspend the siege of Jingzhao Mansion" After making some arrangements, the generals dispersed, but Zhao Yougong left the great monk Lu Zhishen behind.

Today's Lu Zhishen is not bald, because he has a hat on his head, a black uniform, and a shortened beard. Now Lu Zhishen is still a general under Lin Chong, it's not that Zhao Yougong doesn't want to promote him, it's really Uncle Lu's temper, he really can't be a general, and it's appropriate to be a vanguard officer who charges into battle.

Without anyone else, Lu Zhishen spoke a lot more casually, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Your Highness, you left the Sprinkle family alone, do you want to let the Sprinkle family do it?" ”

"Of course it's an important matter, didn't the big monk serve as a magistrate under the small kind of strategy, then I will trouble you to go to the border army, and after a while, the king will repair a letter to the kind of scripture, and you have to bother the big monk to send it over in person."

Hearing Zhao Yougong say this, Lu Zhishen was so disappointed, and he grinned to the side with a big mouth, "Your Highness, that's it?" ”

"Hehe, great monk, don't underestimate this errand, if in two days the scriptures send troops to do something with the king, it will be your fault, of course, if the scriptures are slightly pressed and the king resists the Western Xia people, then the king will give you a great credit!"

"Really?" Lu Zhishen is not very interested in getting promoted to make a fortune, but he just has a sip of wine, and now the princess has a lot of good wine, and she has always been very greedy, "Your Highness, if the errand is done, can you tell the princess, how about the two altars?" ”

"Okay, you really have to do your errand well, this king is in charge, and I will give you four altars!"

"Okay, Your Highness, then you hurry up and write a letter, and the Sprinkle family will go to the Dingbian Army in a puff of smoke!" The big monk has always been so interesting to speak, Zhao Yougong shook his head and was happy, and wrote a letter not long after returning to the study, Lu Zhishen was not verbose, put the letter in his arms, and ran away.

August 24, that is, the day after Zhao Yougong returned to Tongzhou, all departments of the Dingguo Army took action, first Shaohua Mountain Niu Gao's department approached Lingtai Mountain, and then Wu Liang's troops went out of Huayin County and stationed in the northeast of Jingzhao Mansion, and Gao Chong also quickly came to the camp of the B room army in Huanzhou. Xiao Zhiyun listened to Gao Pet talk about yesterday's events, so she pursed her lips and looked at the blue sky, Zhang Boying is also a character, but it is a pity that she met a heroic figure like Zhao Yougong, this time, Zhang Boying will not survive.

"Brother, four thousand soldiers and horses will follow General Gao to the south to approach Jingzhao Mansion, and the rest will follow Princess Ben to approach the Dingbian Army, if there is no accident, the security army will be in chaos."

It is understandable to divide the troops to the south, so that Niu Gao can increase the pressure on the soldiers and horses of Jingzhao Mansion, but why do you want to approach the Dingbian army? In doing so, of course, Xiao Zhiyun has her own reasons, no one can guarantee that the seed division will take into account the overall situation, cooperate with Zhao Yougong to control the security army, in case the head of the division is hot, when you are a loyal minister and send troops to the east, then you have to take the lead in solving this trouble in the seed division.
