Chapter 381: Unexpected Joy
," to this sentence. Xu Wei can no longer play deep, and the six government affairs are presided over by Hushu. Chop the blade by me? What do you mean? Let me preside over the Division? It's not right, if that's the case, the imperial court should have a clear appointment and let himself act as a deputy envoy. Just say, "What is the matter of presiding over military affairs?"
In the Song Dynasty, a certain what. If there is no one in charge of the organization for the time being, and someone is needed to preside over the day-to-day work, but the selected person is not qualified enough to allow him to serve or deputy, the appointment and title are generally not given, and he is publicized in the form of official documents and edicts to preside over the day-to-day affairs of the institution. For example, when Xu Wei was appointed as Dingrong Zhizhuo, the imperial court asked him to "be the same as Shaanxi and Chinese soldiers and horses." "The same section means common moderation and common management.
Zhenjiang Xing took into account that after Li Gang was deposed, Shaanxi's military and political governors were all vacant. However, since the peace agreement has been reached, it is estimated that there will be no important military action, and after thinking about it, among the local officials in Shaanxi, it seems that only Xu Wei is suitable to temporarily help Zhang Luo with the affairs of the Preparation Division. Xu Yuan: "Set up the deputy envoy. One of the very important factors why the appointment was not approved is that although he is from the Xu family, he is a pure general of the Western Army. But since it is an edict of the imperial court, it is authoritative and binding. As long as there is no official candidate to send an envoy, Shaanxi's military affairs, theoretically speaking, will have to listen to Xu Wei. Of course, whether the other marshals will take Xu Wei in their eyes has to be said.
"Dashuai, when the official came, the official asked to bring a sentence to the Dashuai, and the official's original words were that the situation in Shaanxi was complicated, and Xu Ziang was expected to do his best. He also said that Ziang has a lot of merit in Shaanxi, and Zhang Jun, who has a number in his heart, said.
Xu Wei didn't have time but guessed what he wanted, the most important thing at the moment is that I will take 40,000 people, with the power of victory, and I will soon fight Yaozhou, you let me go back at this time, isn't this? But the problem is that although Zhang Jun is a sesame petty official wearing green skin, he represents the imperial court. Damn, it can't be withdrawn, absolutely can't be withdrawn.
When Xu Wei was thinking hard about countermeasures, Zhang Jun suddenly asked: "The situation in Shaanxi is worrying, Chang'an is not guaranteed, and peace is negotiated with Beiyi." Why did the marshal still send troops? ”
"Why is Chang'an not guaranteed? Slow, did the Jurchens say to Xing that it was easy to attack Chang'an? And Xingzai also believed it," Xu Wei was very surprised.
But Zhang Jun was even more surprised: "Isn't it?"
"Shit! He besieged me for three months, broke countless soldiers and horses, and didn't even take down a city gate! Ben Shuai had already decided to launch a strategic counteroffensive, but suddenly received news that he had negotiated peace and asked us to hand over the land, the city, and the people. Who do I go to? Xu Wei's words, of course, are bragging, but this bull must be bragged!
When Zhang Dan heard this, he was puzzled. What's going on? Huang Youcheng negotiated with the Jin people on behalf of the Great Song Dynasty, and the other party repeatedly threatened that if he did not agree to the conditions, he would wash Chang'an in blood. At this time, the imperial court was also interested in negotiating peace. So after talking for a while, I agreed. But who knows, Xu Jingluo said so!
Seeing his appearance, Xu Wei struck while the iron was hot: "Lord Zhang, Ben Shuai has just finished defeating the famous general of the Jin Camp in Wannian, and this thief is only spared." Now, it is to go to Yaozhou to conquest, and after this battle is over, all the Jin troops around Chang'an will be wiped out! It's time for a strategic counteroffensive! ”
Zhang Dan was skeptical. looked around, puzzled: "The lower officials look at the headquarters of the marshal." I didn't bring much food and grass with me
Xu Wei was stunned, who said that civilian officials don't know anything about military affairs. This is quite clever. I can see that I didn't bring a few days of military rations! I'm just going to play Yaozhou, why do you bring so much food?
"Oh, the enemy of Yaozhou, there are not many troops, finish this battle. Ben Shuai returned to Chang'an, asked for instructions from the Xuanfu Division, and prepared for a counterattack
Zhang Jun didn't speak, if what Xu Wei said was true, then the matter was worth scrutinizing. Although the imperial court intended to negotiate peace, it agreed on the bottom line in advance, that is, Shaanxi could not let the Jin people touch their fingers. Only cut two rivers, top the sky, and put the land in Shandong. But because of the fall of Jiaoyan, the Guanzhong Plain is not guaranteed, and even Chang'an is about to break the city.
That is why concessions will be made. As soon as Xu Wei says it now, we are deceived by the Jurchens?
Just as he was pondering, Xu Wei suddenly remembered, is this guy Zhang Dan? Isn't it the representative of the main battle faction in the Song Dynasty after Li Gang? Wait a while, is it this Zhang Dan, or is it that Zhang Jun under the command of the eldest brother Xu Yuan? What's going on with these two people, taking the same name?
Fuck it, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor! There is no turning back from the bow, my morale is high, and I must not withdraw! However, depending on the situation, this guy is not easy to fool, how can you move him? Scare first!
"Master Zhang, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. If the Jin army has a firm foothold in Shaanxi, then, within three years, these 800 miles of Qinchuan may all be surnamed Jin. At that time, the Western Army may only be able to defend Shu and maneuver, and it will be difficult to recover. If Sichuan loses again, the Jurchens can go along the river and take the southeast directly! Ben Shuai is by no means alarmist, the situation in Shaanxi is complicated, I believe that Zhenjiang Xing also knows, Master Zhang, you should have heard of it. If the Jin army is allowed to get involved in Guanzhong, the consequences will be unimaginable
Zijin Tiger said as he paid attention to the other party's expression. Zhang Dan also calmed down, "It's so mysterious, he didn't frown."
Seeing this, Xu Wei described the opinions on the situation of the two armies that he had just discussed with Wu Jie, especially in terms of grain, grass and materials, in detail, and added methods to the other party.
Zhang Jun still didn't make any statement, and he was very rare. As an adjutant of the Privy Council, he is only six grades, and he can be said to be an insignificant figure. Coming to Shaanxi, he is just an errand role. When I entered Chang'an City and met the relevant officials, I heard that Xu Wei led the army to Yaozhou. was so shocked that he flew to chase after him, just to convey the will of the Purple Tiger and let the Purple Gold Tiger withdraw his troops.
As a result, Xu Wei's words caught him by surprise. He didn't expect that the situation of the Song and Jin armies was like this now, and it was no wonder that Zhenjiang was far away from Shaanxi Mountain, and it was difficult to understand the inside story in detail, and it could be said that the whip was beyond the reach of the whip. Otherwise, they would not have suffered from the way of the Jurchens. How good is that?
It is said that he is only here to deliver the decree, and he can take Li Gang back to hand him over. Anyway, I resolutely implemented the things that the court explained, and even if I completed the mission, I could ignore everything else.
But then again, knowing that things are different, do you sit idly by? After a little bit of the world, when it started with Guan Long, this is a truth that has been proven many times throughout the ages. If Shaanxi is lost, the "guts" of the Great Song Dynasty will be gone, and the consequences are very serious, Xu Shuai did not exaggerate.
"Lord Zhang, if Xu only wants to be rich and noble, he can ignore it, hand over the land in the city, and send back the people. Anyway, the imperial court also appointed me as Qin Fengshuai, why should I go to the rear and live a happy life in peace? But Ben Shuai is a military minister sent by the imperial court to Shaanxi, and the official family sent me here to guard one side and protect the territory and the people. I can't take the land and city of our Great Song Dynasty and the people of Li as a fart, right? Hey, don't laugh at Lord Zhang, Ben Shuai was born in the army, and he hasn't read a few books.
Zhang Jun was a little uneasy, and said casually: "The handsome and loyal and brave, everyone in the world knows that Xia Guan has heard of it whether he is in Tokyo or Zhenjiang. Xu Wei was about to speak again, but Zhang Jun made a surprise move, and he raised his left hand to stop Xu Wei. In a strange tone, he said: "Marshal, you can't do military affairs at a humble level. Please tell me bluntly, can you beat it? ”
"What?" Xu Wei didn't seem to understand too much.
"Xiaguan asks the marshal to tell him bluntly, can he beat the Jurchens?" Zhang Jun said quickly.
Xu Wei was about to say the advantages and disadvantages of the enemies and friends that he had just analyzed for him, and Zhang Dan added anxiously: "Don't hide it, tell me bluntly!" ”
Zijin Tiger saw that his face was almost red, his lips trembled, and it was not good to bluff people with big words to think about the clipping, and said: "In this way, please go to Yaozhou with Ben Shuai!" If I am defeated, I don't need you to say a word, I will immediately withdraw my troops and ask for punishment! ”
"Not necessarily!" Zhang Jun said loudly! At this point, he stared at the other party for a long time, and said slowly, "Xia Guan has never caught up with the big handsome." ”
Xu Wei was overjoyed! hugged his fists and saluted: "Xu only saw today, what is a loyal minister, what is for the country and the people!" ”
As soon as this high hat was sent over, Zhang Jun smiled bitterly: "I really shouldn't have taken this trip." Well, if it is investigated, the guilt will be borne by the lower officials. I will say goodbye here, and I wish the marshal a triumphant return, and the lower officials will be waiting in Chang'an City, please! ”
"Please!" Xu Wei sent him off. Zhang Jun turned the horse's head, but no longer hesitated, and left!
As soon as he left, Wu Jie, Yang Yan, Ma Tai, and Zhang Xian all surrounded him. Although I wanted to know what was going on, I didn't dare to make noise. Xu Wei looked at Zhang Jun's back, yes, there are still such people in the civil officials, Li Gang, Zong Ze, Zhe Yanzhi, Xu Han, and now there is another Zhang Dan. No matter what their talents are, these people really take the world as their own responsibility, although they can't be as selfless as them, but at least they still admire their demeanor.
"All marches! Enter Yaozhou before dark! ”
Just when Xu Wei led his troops to advance to Yaozhou, the Jin general Pucha Shijianu, who was stationed there, received a message.
In Yaozhou City, there are not many local residents in sight, and most of them have fled into Chang'an City. After the Jin army entered the city, it ruined the city with a good end. Logically speaking, although the Jurchens start and end. Lin, you can finally destroy the Liao Kingdom, right? You should at least know that the city works better than your tent. But I don't know why, these Beiyi enter a city and destroy one. It is estimated that the Jurchens think so, no matter how magnificent and strong your city is, it will still be beaten down by us. What books do you read, what words you write, and there is a bird to use, we will quickly horse a scimitar and still fight the sky.
"Report! The Song troops in Ningfang Erzhou have all withdrawn! Go to Jingzhou! In the military tent, a Jin general broke in and reported loudly to the main general Pucha Shijianu.
Shi Jianu has a strong background and is an absolute Jurchen nobleman. His second uncle is Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguta, and his fourth uncle is the current emperor of Jin, Wanyan Wu begging, a serious imperial relative.
