This is probably the only word to describe Liu Guangshi's current view of the Khitans, which is the most appropriate and appropriate. The Khitan people are indeed too cāo, and they don't talk about the bad debts in front of them now, but this time it is indeed over. How can you recruit a rebel?

In March, several party clans who had lived in the area of Wuyan City in Hengshan for many years secretly agreed to defect to Xia Jing together. There is no exact number of how many people have run, but it is roughly estimated that there are thousands of households and tens of thousands of people who cannot run. Since the Western Army and the Liao Army joined forces to attack Xia, the Hengshan line was returned to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhuyi here was naturally included in the jurisdiction of Shaanxi. Needless to say, the impact of such a large-scale defection is self-evident. The most serious thing is that defection is just that, before these people ran, they were especially unexpected, trying to attack Wuyan City, which was garrisoned by the Yan army, and the quality was particularly bad!

All of these people fell to the Khitan, and it was reported that after the traitors attacked Wuyan Bucheng, they fled to the northeast. After stepping into the border of Youzhou, he was discovered by the defenders of Youzhou, intercepted, and suffered heavy casualties. But just when the defenders of Youzhou were chasing after them, they suddenly killed a Puma army! There were about 1,000 cavalry, and they did not attack the Song army, but were forced to retreat, covering the withdrawal of the defecting party members. The opponent was outnumbered and the troops were superior, and the defenders of Youzhou and the other side had been in a stalemate and negotiation, and the other party did not respond to any questions until all the defectors of the party had withdrawn, and then they followed up without hurry.

After Xu Hong received the urgent report, in order to avoid a more serious accident, he urgently sent additional troops to Wuyan, and sent one of his cronies to Youzhou to sit in the town and strictly guard against it. According to investigation, the Ma Jun who responded to the defection of the party came out of Xiazhou, and Xiazhou was the foothold that Xu Wei lent to Xiao Heda at the beginning! matter. Xiao Heda can't get out of it!

The red-haired tiger quickly reported to the Xuanfu Division of Xingyuan Prefecture and Sichuan. Again, please fight! The Khitans are so arrogant, they can't tolerate it anymore! The Yan army will avenge this arrow!

After Liu Guangshi got the letter, he was really anxious! He can only say that he is unlucky, as soon as he takes office, the incidents are one after another, and they have not stopped! This time, although the Liao army did not fight with the Song army. Accommodating so many defectors is also a serious act of hostility!

If you don't take action, not only will you not be able to explain to Xu Hong, but you will also be unable to speak to other commanders and soldiers of the Western Army! People will scold Liu Xuanfu for being a soft egg! In order to counteract and retaliate, Liu Guangshi ordered, that is, rì to order the border troops along the border roads. Strictly arrest sī, once it is caught, whether it is the Song or Liao, all the goods will be confiscated, and the personnel will be detained pending trial, and they will be dealt with strictly and severely!

But, at the end of the command, he added. If you encounter the Liao army, you still have to avoid a head-on conflict, and wait for the court to make a decision.

After receiving this order. Xu Hong immediately ordered the guards of Youzhou, and from now on, strictly investigate and take sī, but all those who come from the summer realm will be copied and all the personnel will be detained. There is the slightest resistance and disobedience. Kill on the spot! The same order also came out of the mouth of Jingyuan Shuai Xu Cheng!

This was a terrible situation, since the last time Xu Cheng ordered a severe crackdown on the Jingyuan border, the behavior between Xia Jing and Shaanxi was mainly concentrated on the original Huanqing border, where the Song army was weakly controlled. But. After the withdrawal of the Huanqing Army, the defense area was divided into two commanders, Jingyuan and Yanyan. Xu Hong, Xu Cheng, uncle and nephew, gave the same order. Those who go sī will suffer.

Whether it is from Shaanxi in the past or from Xiajing, if you catch it, all the goods are gone, and all the people are detained. Whether you resist or run away, the hands of the soldiers are also black and there is no mercy. The most serious situation occurred in early April, which was the third day of the fourth month, and the defenders of Youzhou routinely sent patrols along the border.

Recently, under the strict investigation and crackdown of the border guards, the activities of walking around the Qingqing border had a great sense of silence for a while. The usual gangs that openly crossed the border have disappeared, and these few rì have only caught some "lonely" sī walkers, and under interrogation, they are not businessmen who make a profit by taking sī, but ordinary people who are forced to make a living. For such a person, the officers and soldiers will only confiscate his goods, and generally will not embarrass the individual.

The Youzhou Border Army patrol patrolled to a place called Liuboling, and planned to go back. This Liubolin is a dangerous place between Yanzhou and Youzhou, and it is also a necessary place for party members to go south to Huanqing. In the past, if the sī gang on the party side wanted to steal into Shaanxi, most of them would choose to come from here.

There is no abnormality in patrolling here, so it should be said that there is nothing wrong. The military envoy who led the team glanced at the majestic mountain range, and saw that the Qianxia post road through the mountain range was calm, so he pulled the reins in his hand and said: "Go, turn around!" ”

"Turn around! Turn around! "The cavalrymen passed orders one after another. The horses neighed and shouted, so lively.

Just as the hundred cavalry turned their horses and prepared to return, the deputy horse envoy suddenly heard a sharp howl in his ears! Even in the noise of the cavalry, the "whistling" can be heard clearly! As soon as he heard this sound, he immediately said, "Military envoy! There has been a change! ”

The military system is 100 people, the infantry army is called the capital head and the deputy capital head, and the horse army is called the military envoy and the deputy soldier and horse envoy. But the capital of the Ma army is much more expensive than the capital of the infantry army. If it weren't for the recent assignment of a task, who would be willing to take a horse army out on patrol?

When the envoy heard this, he turned back and saw nothing unusual. The knights also turned their heads and looked around. The officers and soldiers were no stranger to the sound just now, and it sounded like it was made by the sound of a beep. The so-called sound of the arrow, which is generally used in the military to transmit information, and is mostly used in ambushes.

When the officers and soldiers were suspicious, there was a sudden rumbling hoof sound on the wide post road that passed through the ridge! The military envoy's face changed, and he immediately shouted: "Array! ”

The knights pulled their horses' heads back one after another, lined up in attacking formation, drew their swords, and looked coldly at the corner of the post road in the middle of the mountains.

Soon! I saw a crowd of horse troops coming in the dust! The deputy envoy buckled his bow and said to the envoy next to him, "What should I do?" ”

"That's up to them." The envoy replied with a blank face. Under the feet is already the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, the boundary of Shaanxi, no matter what the other party comes from, as long as he crosses the Liuboling, it is a border, do you need to ask what to do?

The horse also seemed to sense the danger, paddling its hooves uneasily, and sneezing through its nose. There are a lot of people on the other side, after passing through the ridge. Spread out on the flat ground below the ridge, the strength was far above the Western army patrol.

"What a fucking bad luck! Let's run into it! The envoy gritted his teeth and said.

"It's the Liao Army, right?" The deputy soldier asked.

"It doesn't look right, it's like a party member. However, those who came from the north were not Liao troops but also Liao troops. After the envoy finished speaking, he raised his sword and shouted, "Prepare for battle!" ”

On the other side, after the horse army rushed out, there was no sign of attack. It's just lined up. Stand still. The patrol waited for a while, but there was no reaction from the other party, and the military envoy thought that the other party was invading our border, and it was not a way to stalemate like this, so he said: "You go, tell them that this is the boundary of the Great Song Dynasty." Let them return immediately! Otherwise, the offense will be judged on the side! ”

"Yes!" The deputy envoy was actually a young man under twenty years old, and he was completely fearless in the face of an enemy several times his size. After receiving the order, he mounted his horse and ran towards the other party.

Between the two armies, the distance is less than two hundred paces, and the distance is very close. After a hundred paces, the soldier was already moving forward at full speed, and just as he was getting closer and closer to the enemy formation, he suddenly heard the sound of breaking through the air. Almost at the same time, a force slammed into his mouth, causing his upper body to jerk back on horseback! After falling heavily to the ground, a sharp pain followed, and he struggled to raise his head slightly. What I saw was a white feather. Staring at his xiōng mouth! And the war horse was also burdened by him, and fell to the side, and was struggling to get up at this time!

"I'm fucking! Brethren! Kill! Seeing this scene, the military envoy suddenly rushed straight up! The command is almost blurted out!

The military envoys took the lead. The cavalrymen who woke up were furious! urged the war horse Yunhui to dance the war knife. Charge forward with a roar!

They move! The other side also immediately launched an offensive! Under the Liubo Ridge, the iron hooves are trampled, and the thunderous hooves are getting faster and faster! The distance is a little closer, and the arrows are flying! Under the anger of the cavalry, which one did not pull the strings and do their best? At this stall, no one has the heart to think about the enemy and the outnumbered, just thinking about one thing, desperately! Avenge! over this group of donkeys!

Meet at close quarters! Two armies in one! Steel collides! The cavalry of the two armies galloped through the gap! The sword in his hand fluttered like a snowflake! Splash a cloud of blood! The knight's sturdy body slammed into the ground, and the hooves of his companions trampled past him!

One point for two armies! The envoy looked left and right, and saw that the brother had broken a lot. He was also slashed in the left rib, and blood was gushing out. But he didn't care about it at all, and after forming a formation again, he raised his war knife and shouted loudly: "Return!" ”

Dozens of knights knew that they were going to die, but they were not afraid, and they were looking forward to a cushion for Dora. The commander gave an order, and they all rushed over hysterically shouting and killing again! Death is not terrible, what I am afraid of is that there is no one to die with.

After one round, Song Jun broke more than half. On the ground where the two armies had charged, there were many corpses, some of them or not dead, lying on their backs.

The blood from the wound between the ribs of the military envoy had already stained the light helmet red, and his wheezing was as thick as an ox, and there were beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead. He knew that the ghost envoy sent by Hades to detain Hún was about to arrive. At this time, he didn't actually think about anything else, he didn't care about what was loyal to the country, defending the land and the people, and the horse leather shroud. All he cares about is that the donkey's! I'll fuck you!

The Song army launched an assault again......

When the envoy became conscious again, he heard the sound of a ding-dong sound beside him. Those who are soldiers are the most sensitive to the sound of gold and iron fighting! He vaguely felt that this was the chain of black and white impermanence. After another while, I faintly heard the screams, and my heart was broken! It's over! I'm going to the eighteen floors of hell? Is this going to go to the knife mountain or boiling the oil pot? If you think about it again, it's nothing, when you are a soldier and fight, you kill people like hemp, how can you not go to hell?

I tried to open my eyes, but I couldn't. At this moment, I heard someone talking next to me. At first, I didn't listen very carefully, but I only heard a man say that "he was seriously injured", "the most serious wound in the intercostal battle", and "eight wounds". Then I listened to another man say "try your best to save" and "be a man"......

None of this mattered, the key was that he heard a sentence "Don't worry, Dashuai". In the Western Army, those who dare to be called handsome and can be called handsome, go up to Xu Xuanfu Xianggong, and go down to Zhulu Jingluo Xianggong, except for this, no one has this qualification! He is an officer of the Yan Shuai Division, and this handsome man is ...... Xu Wujing!

As soon as I thought of this, I suddenly opened my eyes! What catches your eye, wooden planks, green tiles, what is this? The roof, this is! At this very moment. One of the people in the ear shouted, "Wake up! Wake up! Then I felt a commotion all around, the sound of footsteps crackling, and in an instant, many faces crowded in front of me, and concerned eyes abounded.

With a big face, it looked a little hideous, but the military envoy could see at a glance the red beard under his chin! A bang in my head! The mood is moving. He struggled!

The long-haired man held him down, and said in a majestic voice: "Don't move, rest assured!" I, Xu Wuding, avenged this for my brothers! ”

At this time, the military envoy's consciousness was a little more sober, and he wanted to speak but couldn't say it, so he could only blink his eyes one by one. Tears also blinked......

Xu Hong comforted him a few more words, instructed the military doctor to take care of the students, and went out of the room accompanied by a group of civil and military officials. Behind the scenes, the cries of the wounded soldiers are still very harsh!

"One hundred and twelve, and forty-seven returned, plus sixty-five corpses. This account has to be counted on the Khitans! Youzhou Terracotta said through gritted teeth.

Xu Hong glanced at him, and saw that he was a little stunned, and at this time, a staff officer of the Jingluo Pacification Division next to him said: "How can it be called the head of the Khitans?" This was originally made by the Khitans! People know the route of our patrol, and they are specially set up there to wait! On the surface, it looks like a party member. If the party members don't all listen to the Khitan people now? Xiao Duolu: No, this is taking revenge on us! ”

It is said that Xiao Duolu not only connived at the sī, but also directly involved the army. We annoyed him with a harsh arrest, and that's why we did this. ”

"Alas! Damn! When did our Yan Yanjun suffer such a loss? Jin Su was taken away, and now he is still doing it with a knife and a gun! I'm, don't you want to be beaten? If Xu Xuanfu is there. I've already stabbed it to Xingqing Mansion! Dare to bare your teeth? Big ears are pumped to death! ”

Xu Hong has been silent. The generals couldn't hold it down, and the magistrate said, "Marshal, shouldn't Taiwei Liu still be allowed to fight this time?" ”

"He's a!" Xu Hong suddenly scolded! Liu Guangshi now said that he is "the envoy of Quanchuan and Shaanxi", but he has no power to dispose of it. Everything has to be decided by the imperial court. The court didn't let him fight, and he could only shrink his head. My brother was beheaded and spilled blood. The court doesn't take it seriously! The first generals said that if Lao Jiu is here, he will definitely retaliate! This is not right, if Lao Jiu is here, Xiao Duolu will not dare to do this at all!

Lao Jiu too! You shouldn't have resigned voluntarily in the first place! You will consume, what does the court dare to do to you! I don't believe that the imperial court is a bunch of fools, knowing that you are defending the western frontier and still have to move your mind! It's good now, change Liu Guangshi to come up, it's not a! There is also the sixth child, a good and dignified court minister, and now he has gone to the beach in Quanzhou!

The more Xu Hong thought about it, the more angry he became, he really hated that he couldn't mention the soldiers and horses to return blood for blood! But he also knows that if he does this, he can only put himself in it! It is a capital offense to mobilize troops without permission! Faced with the anger of his subordinates, he could only press the fire into his stomach and said, "Be careful when you go out on patrol recently, don't be tough." Let's see what Xuanfu Si says first. ”

"Marshal, if the Xuanfu Division still asks us to exercise restraint and not clash head-on with the Liao army, then what?" Aribu General asked.

Xu Hong's cheeks were agitated for a while, and he didn't say a word, and went straight away.

The bloody case that occurred on the border of Youzhou made Liu Guangshi secretly complain. He was originally leading the troops, and he knew very well how big the impact of this kind of thing would be on the troops. At this moment, the whole Yan army must be indignant and shouting! If in this case, he still suppressed Yan Yanjun, and it would be difficult to make a mess, and that was what he definitely didn't want to see.

It's just that then again, I can't compare with Xu Wei. He had the power to dispose of it at the beginning, but he could act cheaply, he would fight if he wanted, and report to the court after he hit. I can't do it, I have to report to the court for instructions on everything, but the court won't let me fight, and I can only desperately use military law to restrain the generals.

Liu Guangshi thought about it again and again, and replied to Yan Yan Shuaisi that the Liao people are indeed hateful, and if they repeatedly endure it, it can only fuel their arrogance. From now on, if the Liao army crosses the border and enters our Shaanxi territory, it can be shot away. But you must not take revenge across the border. This order is already precious to Liu Guangshi. Previously, he had ordered Zhulu Marshal to avoid a head-on conflict with the Liao army.

At the same time, he also cautiously submitted to the imperial court, changed his previous attitude, and made a clear suggestion. The Khitans continued to create incidents on the border, and now they have created a bloody case, and the army and civilians are boiling, shouting and beating in unison. If it is suppressed again, I am afraid that the external troubles will not disappear, and internal strife will arise again. Ask the imperial court to consider it at its discretion, whether to fight back?

This is a book for the emperor, and he wrote a letter in the name of the sī people to Fan Tong, the governor of Zhongshu. Because Fan Tong was Liu Yanqing's staff back then, Liu Guangshi also knew him, and now Fan participates in politics with his back to the Liu family and the queen, and he can be regarded as his own person, so Liu Guangmin is not shy about it.

In the letter, Liu Guangshi's words were much more frank. Tell Fan Tong directly, if it goes on like this, I, the Sichuan-Shaanxi Xuanfu Envoy, will not be able to do it. Xu Wei's reputation in Sichuan and Shaanxi was extremely high, and he was simply a grandfather-like existence in the army! It is already extremely difficult to purge his influence, and now if I suppress the army again, I can only become more and more detached from morality, how can I establish my prestige? Moreover, the Khitans are so provocative, if the Western Army doesn't fight back, that person will ride on their heads and! How long will we have to endure it? He peed and I took it with my mouth, and it was like soup?!。
