The Purple Gold Tiger comforted the old ministry and asked them to go back to Hedong to contact the rebels in various places, and wait for the orders of the Shaanxi Establishment Division. Collect~牛*文*

.

While Xu Churen and Xu Wei were actively preparing to recover all of Shaanxi, the Xianghan region had been fighting fiercely for months. The Wushu of the Han Dynasty Wanyan Zongbi sent a partial division to attack Suizhou, and drove the main force to attack Xiangyang. However, for several months, the two armies of Song and Jin fought day and day, and the killing was inseparable. In Suizhou City, the Jin army set up as many as 100 artillery trucks to bombard the city day and night, Jinghu Xuanfu Division, the main general of the Shenwu Rear Army Zhang Zhongxiong has always insisted on commanding in the front line, when the fierce battle, unfortunately was injured by the artillery, and Yue Fei, the deputy commander, resolutely took on the responsibility of command.

After Zhang Zhongxiong was wounded, he took over the command, and he remained in the front line of command no matter when there was a fierce battle or an intermittent time. In the cold winter, the soldiers guarding the city were miserable, Yue Fei had patrolled the city all night, and when he was tired, he sat on the arrow bundle to rest for a while, and when he got up, the ice on the armor cracked, and there was a loud sound. When the soldiers saw that he was still like this, who would dare to complain?

The strong attack lasted for several months, and the morale of the Jin army fell to the bottom. The soldiers were slack, and the intensity of the attack was not as good as day by day, and the generals of the Jin army even carried the Hu bed to the front of the city and sat on the bed to command.

In Xiangyang, despite the personal command of Wushu, an army of 100,000 surrounded the city and stormed it. However, Zhang Bofen and Han Shizhong will rely on the high walls and barriers to confront the enemy. In the first month of the third year of Jianwu, it was difficult to ride a tiger in Wushu, and it was not so difficult to attack Tokyo at the beginning

At the beginning of the first month, Jiangxi Xuanfu ambassador Zhi Yan personally raised the army, set off from Jiangzhou, crossed the river west through Ezhou, and when the boat arrived at the center of the river, Zhi Yan warned the children of the Zhi family, "This trip, do not break the gold thief, do not involve this river" In the middle of the month, the Zhe family army arrived in Yingzhou, and Zhi Zhonggu planned to follow the route of the last Fold to ask for troops, divide the troops to rescue Suizhou, and led the main force along the Han River to the north to Xiangyang.

However, after full preparation before the war, Wushu expected that the Song army on the Jiangnan West Road would inevitably come to the rescue of Xianghan, so he set up a number of large villages between Fulong Mountain and Lumen Mountain south of Xiangyang to prevent the Zhejia army from moving north along the Han River. Guxiangyang is related to the safety of the entire south, and Zhe Zhonggu must also go to the top.

He first sent Zhi Yanwen, one of the Zhi brothers, and Zhi Yanshi and the two led 10,000 troops to the Jin army that attacked and ambushed Longshan. Yan Wen Yanshi is the best among the children of the Zhe family, but the Wushu is managed here, the camp is as solid as iron stone, and the onslaught of the Zhejia army cannot be effective, but it is repulsed. No matter how the whole army attacks Lumen Mountain, it will not be able to break it.

After two setbacks, Zhe Zhonggu, at the suggestion of He Guan, decided to concentrate on solving the problem of Suizhou first. At the beginning of February, he took the incomparably brave Orihiko as a pioneer to rescue Suizhou. Zhe Yan led 4,000 troops to the north, defeated the Jin army blocking force in Pingba Town, northeast of Yingzhou, killed more than 800 people, and defeated several times the enemy in Guanghua Town, just south of Suizhou, killed one of the Han army's thousand commanders, and besieged Suizhou's Jin army was shaken, and the main general Pu Luhun led thousands of Jurchen troops to arrive at Guanghua Town, and fought fiercely with Zheyan Yezhan. How do you know that you still can't escape the fate of failure, the young general of the folded family has the courage to be unstoppable, and its horse army is like a tiger and a wolf, and the golden cavalry does not fall behind at all, in the melee, Puluhun's helmet was knocked off, the war horse was stabbed to death, and the emperor retreated to Suizhou.

How do you know that the disaster does not stop there, Yue Fei observed the Jin army dividing troops to the south in the city, and judged that reinforcements had arrived. When Pu Luhun led the army south to block the attack, he sent his son Yue Yun and his general Wang Gui to touch the camp at night. At that time, the Jin army was already tired, the whole army was slack, although Wang Guiyue Yun only had a thousand people, but he made a mess of the Jin army camp, killed more than 400 enemies, and calmly returned to the city.

In mid-February, the main force of the Zhejia army of 40,000 entered Suizhou, Pu Luhun fought with Zhe Keqiu in Hezhou last time, trying to seize the ferry across the Yangtze River, he was deeply afraid of the courage of the Zhejia family, and he thought that it was difficult to resist, led the army to retreat, retreated into Tangzhou, and quickly reported to the Wushu of Xiangyang.

Wushu heard this news, but did not panic, between Suizhou and Xiangyang, separated by Dahong Mountain, even if the Song army gained an advantage in Suizhou, but if you want to save Xiangyang, you must take Tangzhou, through which you detour to the north of Xiangyang, behind the Jin army. He strictly ordered Pu Luhun that it is already a big crime for you to avoid the retreat of the Zhejia army, and if you lose Tangzhou again, you will not be spared

Pu Luhun knew that Wushu could say and do, and when the Zhejia army really came to attack Tangzhou, he risked his life and commanded the troops to meet the battle, this time he finally blocked the Song army, causing the Xianghan theater to fall into a stalemate.

In the third year of the establishment of the military, in February, Weizhou.

Because of his illness, Marshal Jingyuan has been unable to serve as the director of the Shuai Division for a long time, and he has to pretend to be the deputy marshal Wang Yu for general affairs, but the major matters involved are all under the control of Xu Yan, and it is difficult for Wang Yu to intervene. Because of this, Wang Zhengchen complained to Xu Wei many times, accusing Xu Yuan of "domineering" and "unauthorized power".

It had just started spring, the climate was warmer, and Xu Yuan's condition had improved slightly. In the bedroom, the veteran who had been in charge of the army for decades lay on the bed, hugging a thick quilt, wrapped tightly, only half of his head exposed, and a cough was heard from time to time. In fact, the medical officer couldn't tell him a specific situation about his illness, and the generals who had been in battle all their lives had suffered countless injuries and were getting old, all like this.

His wife, Xu Wu, sat on the edge of the bed with a sad face. Xu Yuan, even if there are all kinds of nots, there is one thing that is very commendable. The military ministers of the Song Dynasty were limited by their personal recuperation and cultural quality, and generally had some vices, the most prominent of which were greed for money and lust.

But although Xu Da also likes yellow and white things, he has never touched the word "color". From beginning to end, there is only one wife of the Xu Wu family, and he never accepts concubines or concubines. If it is said that Xu Wu's family is a famous family, it is okay, but this second-class woman is purely a "good girl" from a peasant family, and she doesn't know a single big character. It is not easy to go through decades of ups and downs with Xu Da.

What is Xu Wu worried about? One is worried about her husband's condition, husband and wife for decades, who have been in love with each other, and seeing that her husband can't afford to be sick, she is naturally anxious. The second is to worry about his son, and both his husband and wife prefer their eldest son Xu Yan. Although Xu Cheng is also their flesh and blood, and they also hope that the second son can have a good future, they do not hesitate to ask their cousin Xu Wei to let Xu Chengyin make up for his relationship. But at the last moment, I still hope that Xu Yan will be able to take over his Lao Tzu's class in the future.

But at the moment, I can't see my eyebrows, how can Xu Wu not worry?

"Official, what do you mean by Lao Jiu? How do you turn your arms outward? How can that Wang Zhengchen be the commander of Jingyuan? After thinking about it, Xu Wu couldn't hold back after all, and asked.

When Xu Yuan heard this, he had a headache and scolded: "What do you know about a woman? In private, Lao Jiu is my cousin, but in the public, he is the envoy. ”

"He is the king of heaven, what about Lao Tzu? Not to mention that the official Qin Wang helped him once, just say that after he arrived in Shaanxi, how much did the official help him? Why did you turn your face and deny it at such a time? These brothers of yours ......" Xu Wu said with a long face.

"You don't make noise," Xu Yuan coughed, "Aren't I still dead?" You're in a hurry."

Xu Wu stood up: "Can I not be in a hurry?" Lao Jiu promoted Wang Yu to a 'Chengxuan envoy', and said that he wanted the surname Wang to take over your handsome position. How many years has our Xu family been in Jingyuan? Starting from his father-in-law, he has been fighting for the country for decades, and his uncle has even taken his life, so he can't exchange for a 'father dies and son replaces, and brother dies and brother dies'? She has never read, she is illiterate, she is very unparticular about speaking, and her husband is not dead, so she has made a "father dies and son replaces".

Xu Yuan was already worried about this, but when he heard her make such a fuss, he became even more angry, lifted the quilt, and shouted: "Your aunt-in-law doesn't know anything."

Xu Wu was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he hurriedly covered the quilt for him, but he was unwilling to say: "Okay, good, I won't say that this military power will fall into the ...... of the surnamed king at that time."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Yuan suddenly coughed heartbreakingly, crawled up, leaned his upper body out of the bed, and coughed up clumps of thick phlegm. Xu Wu was distressed and hurriedly stroked her husband's back. Xu Yuan coughed for a long time, his face was flushed, his eyes were bloodshot, Xu Wu saw that something was wrong, and exclaimed: "Official, do you want to call a medical officer?" ”

Xu Da couldn't speak, so he just smashed his fist on the edge of the bed, and Xu Wu saw that the situation was not good, and called loudly: "Come and call Da Lang"

Xu Yuan squeezed out two words from his throat at this time: "Xu Cheng ......"

"Call Erlang too," Xu Wu said quickly.

When Xu Yan and Xu Cheng rushed home one after another, Xu Yuan calmed down a little, facing his two sons, he should have had a lot of things to explain, but in the end, he only said four words, brother and brother Gong.

Qinzhou, Shaanxi Preparation Division.

Xu Wei had just met with Wang Shu, the envoy of Li Qianshun, the lord of Western Xia, who was a Han Chinese whose ancestral home was in Qinzhou. This time, he was ordered by the Lord of Xia to make a special trip to Shaanxi to meet with Xu Wei and Xu Churen, mainly to request the expansion of the trade of Rongchang and the reopening of the mutual market in the Zhenrong army under the jurisdiction of Jingyuan Road. This is the first time since the Song-Xia border war that a Western Xia envoy entered the Song realm, although the other party is purely for the economy, not involving political and military, but this marks the resumption of exchanges between the Song and Xia.

After sending Wang Shu to Mianzhou, Xu Weizheng discussed matters related to the formation of the party in the second hall of Liu Ziyu, Ma Kuo and others. Suddenly, I heard that the adjutant came to report, saying that the military attache of the Marshal Division of Jingyuan urgently asked to see the minister.

"In such a hurry, could it be that something happened to Jingyuan?" Liu Ziyu wondered.

Xu Wei's face was cloudy, before, the eldest brother had been trying to succeed Xu Yan as Shuaishou, and there was no news for several months, and now he suddenly sent someone, could it be ......

"Quick, call him in," Xu Wei shouted.

After a short time, a military attache hurriedly entered and looked at Xu Wei to worship. The latter was anxious and asked in a hurry, "What's the matter?" ”

The day before yesterday, the condition of the minister worsened, he fainted for a while, and after waking up, his speech was slurred and it was difficult to speak. I was ordered to come and report to the Division," said Na Wuchen.

As soon as the words came out, the whole hall was shocked that Xu Yuan was critically ill......

Xu Wei's heart slammed, the last time I saw him, it wasn't very serious, just bed rest, why did he suddenly become critically ill? At that moment, he asked the reason in detail, and the military attache answered truthfully. After asking, Xu Wei ordered the other party to retreat, silent.

"Xianggong, Xu Jingluo is critically ill, and the preparation department has to prepare early." Wu Jue reminded from the side.

Xu Yuan has been in charge of Jingyuan's military power for many years, and his reputation is violent in Song Xia, once he is gone, Jingyuan's handsome position must not be empty, and those arrogant soldiers and fierce generals in Jingyuan cannot be left without a master for a day.

After Xu Wei pondered for a while, he immediately said: "Send someone to Mianzhou and report this matter to the Prime Minister Xuanfu." Ben Shuai immediately set off for Weizhou to visit. So saying, he got up and wanted to go.

Ma Kuo hurriedly stopped and asked, "Xianggong is going like this?" ”

"Or else?" Xu Wei was puzzled.

"It's better to bring the guards." Ma Kuo said in a deep voice. At this time, it is very microseconds, Jingyuan has always been a place where needles can't be inserted and water can't be splashed, Xu Yuan is critically ill, in case there is a bad pool, it's always good to be careful.

Xu Wei shook his head when he heard this, and after ordering a few people to perform their duties, he hurriedly walked out of the yamen. I didn't have time to prepare anything, so I only led a few pro-soldiers, and galloped towards Weizhou. The next day, he arrived in Weizhou City and went straight to Xufu.

"Beware, big handsome." When he was about to arrive at Xu's mansion, the soldiers suddenly shouted.

Xu Wei looked up and saw that outside Xufu Station, martial law was tight. The soldier in armor and armed with a gun stood from the gate of the house to the street, and his nephew Xu Yan, dressed in civilian clothes with a knife hanging from his waist, was waiting at the door. It turned out that as soon as Xu Wei entered the city, Xu Yan received the news, so he put on such a scene.

Xu Wei frowned, ran to the gate of the mansion, dismounted, and strode up. Xu Yan greeted him, hugged his fist, didn't say anything, his expression was complicated, and his eyes were not good. Xu Wei didn't even look at him, but only asked, "How is your father's condition?" ”

Xu Yan replied lukewarmly: "Uncle Nine still cares about his father's condition? ”

Xu Wei stared at him and shouted, "What kind of is your father is my cousin, I don't care who cares?" ”

"My father was angry and had a bad time, and the situation was not good." Xu Yan had something to say, what he meant was that Xu Wei gave Xu Yuan a breath, which was why he was critically ill.

Xu Wei didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and shouted: "Get out of the way." ”

Xu Yan didn't know which tendon was wrong, so he didn't let it. The Purple Gold Tiger was furious, and whipped it over, and it was whipping him on the shoulder, causing Xu Yan's body to tilt, and he involuntarily took a step back. Xu Wei pulled his legs and walked inside, and his personal soldiers sensed that something was wrong, and they all grabbed the handle of the knife and followed. How do you know that the Xianggong stopped, turned around and shouted: "You all stay outside, don't come in"

As soon as Xu Wei entered, Xu Yan regretted it. He put on this scene, in fact, he didn't mean anything else, because he learned that his uncle didn't want him to succeed him as the handsome, and he was angry, so he did it like a child. But you know, who is Xu Wei? Shaanxi's supreme military commander, if you dare to let a soldier carry weapons to demonstrate in front of him, if he does not pursue this matter, he should be more serious, and ask you a crime with ill intentions and intentions, and you will be finished.

Thinking of this, I quickly followed. As soon as he left, there was a loud sound of hooves in the market
