Chapter 48: The Red Sun Comes and Goes Low (26)

Feng Jing has returned home. Feng Jing returned home. ’

Han Li muttered in his heart, walking fast under his feet, if he wasn't afraid of being scolded, he would have run up a long time ago.

But it's almost like a trot, it's rare to show your face in front of your grandfather, Han Li is also excited, and just after finding out the news, she rushed back.

Coming to the hall where his grandfather lived every day, Han Li gasped and asked, "Is Weng Weng inside?" ”

"I'm talking to the senior minister inside." The relatives who were guarding the door nodded, lowered their voices again, and leaned closer and said, "It doesn't sound good, brother will go in later." ”

Han Li looked inside through the person, "But Weng Weng ordered me to go in when I got the news." ”

Facing the little master, the entourage is also very easy to speak, "Then the brother will go in first and talk again when he has time." ”

"That's good. Thank you Fifth Brother, the son of the Fifth Brother is three years old, I bought some Lingnan confectionery candy in Daxiangguo Temple, and sent it to Fifth Brother in the evening. ”

Han Li smiled and said two good words, and then quickly slipped in.

But when he entered the hall, he was disappointed to find that no one in the hall paid attention to him, only his father Han Zongru squeezed his eyes at him and yawned again.

My grandfather and uncle each had a group of friends and protΓ©gΓ©s to meet, and it was even difficult to see each other a few times a day, so they could only meet at night.

Now the sky is still bright, far from the time when the night leaks deeper, but the grandfather and uncle have already returned, and the two of them are sitting opposite each other, with solemn expressions, and the cousin and cousin also have the same expression, only his father is very relaxed.

What the hell is going on?

Feeling the atmosphere in the hall, Han Li didn't dare to rush into it, and cautiously flashed to the corner of the wall, and quietly moved towards his father.

"How can it be so fast?" Han Wei didn't even see his grandson come in, clenched his fists, and smashed the handrail again and again, "When it comes to soldiers, we will start soldiers." ”

"100,000 soldiers, 100,000 soldiers." Han Jin also seemed to be angry and laughed, "How did Yi Xin do it!?" ”

The two brothers, Han Wei and Han Jin, said that it was impossible as if in a dream.

"Daddy, what the hell happened?"

"What else could it be, the North Captives are here." Han Zongru smiled like Maitreya Buddha eight/nine points, but said bad news, "It's so fast." I thought it was an exam question before, but it turned out to be a report. ”

This emergency military situation did not come from the report of the political affairs hall - perhaps in the opinion of the political affairs hall - it was the news that Han Jiatong guΓ² got through the channels of the Liao State - Lingshou was too close to the Liao realm, and it was also invaded by the Liao State ten years ago, and the Han family could not be careless.

Han Li was stunned after only hearing the first two sentences, and he didn't hear the following words. If he hadn't subconsciously covered his mouth, he would have screamed.

"Why are the Northern Captives about to raise troops?" Han Li shouted at her lowest volume.

Thinking of the 100,000 soldiers and horses that Fang Cai's grandfather said, Han Li suddenly lost his sweat.

Han Zongru whispered to his son in a volume close to a whisper: "Beiyu will come sooner or later, but this time the situation is not right. Otherwise, your grandfather and uncle would be like this. ”

It was as if the hemorrhoids had broken - this sentence, Han Zongru didn't dare to say it.

Although he had received the urgent military information that the Liao army was about to enter the army, he had not even received the news of the Liao army's assembly before, and suddenly learned that the main force of the Liao people had arrived not far from the border, which made the two brothers Han Jin and Han Wei only sit and shake their heads, shouting incredulous.

Han Jin and Han Wei are not scholars who know nothing about military affairs.

Perhaps in the Renzong Dynasty, a pure scribe who only knew how to dance and write could be in a high position, but since the rise of Xiyu, it was difficult for courtiers who were ignorant of military affairs to serve as chief officials in the military important places and important towns in the north.

And Han Jin and Han Wei both have the experience of serving as governors and pacification envoys in the key places of Hebei, Hedong, and Shaanxi.

With a wealth of experience, they knew very well how much trouble it was to mobilize 100,000 soldiers and horses in one place.

"100,000 soldiers and horses...... How did Yelu Yixin hide from everyone? ”

Han Wei looked like he wanted to punch his head with his fist so that he could have a flash of inspiration.

Han Jin was also in a state of anger and confusion: "No matter how good you are at nomadism, you won't be silent." ”

The Khitan is long in migration, and the Liao lord has a bowl in all directions, and there are 100,000 people accompanying him all year round.

However, the 100,000 troops are completely different from the 100,000 in the imperial tent, in which the servants and daughters account for the majority, and their daily consumption is completely different from the grain, grass and military resources required by the army.

Moreover, the route of the bowl is fixed, and there are prepared warehouses and pastures along the way. And the 100,000 troops were all requisitioned from all over the country, and the preparations before the march, the consumption on the road, and in the end, were not simply arranged.

Although it must be much easier than the mobilization of the forbidden army on the side of the Great Song Dynasty, after all, it is not spring, and you can leave, and you only need to prepare for a day or two at most.

"That's Liao."

Han Zongru patted his son on the back of the head, "If the Liao people really had such ability, the Great Song Dynasty would have been defeated a long time ago." ”

"Could it be a railroad?"

Han Li's voice was a little louder, so that Han Jin, who had sharp ears, heard it, and immediately shouted, "If the Liao people repair the railway, will the family not receive news?" ”

Han Li's face turned red, and she arched her back, trying to shrink herself.

100,000 soldiers and horses are living creatures, and they can walk at night and on small roads, and they can only walk where no one is around. The railway track is a dead thing, hundreds of thousands of miles of track passing, all are big cities, passes, unless the fine work sent to the Liao State has become blind and deaf, otherwise how can it be concealed from the Great Song Dynasty, which has been a mortal enemy for more than a hundred years?

Han Zhen turned around, but saw his nephew, "Little monkey, when did you come back?" ”

Han Li didn't want to be called by a little monkey, but he didn't dare to resist, and said dejectedly, "Just now." ”

"Do you know why it is impossible for the Liao people to use the railway to transport troops?" As if it was an exam, Han Jin asked his nephew.

"You can't fix it, and you can't use it if you fix it."

As far as Han Li knows, the Liao people have indeed been building railways over the years. It's just that the north is very cold, and it's really not easy to build. The railway connecting Nanjing Xijin and Tokyo Liaoyang has not been completed for seven or eight years.

The railroad from Sijin Province to Fengshengju is also being laid. But Han Li had also heard that the railway seemed to be going to climb a mountain, so there was a difficulty in the project, and the work had been suspended for a year.

The difference in national strength made it difficult for Liao's railway construction. The disparity in the number of talents made it impossible for the Liao State to even run a railway well - starting from the wooden track of Xianghan water transportation that was only a few tens of miles, it took nearly twenty years for the Great Song Dynasty to cultivate enough professionals to maintain the normal operation of thousands of miles of railways.

Listening to Sun Tzu's detailed answer, Han Jin and Han Wei exchanged glances, and they were both a little surprised.

The first point is simple, but it is not easy to understand the latter point.

"It's kind of a little bit better." Han Wei's praise was still harsh, and then he finally remembered what he was sending his grandson out for, "Feng Jing came out?" ”

"Ah, it's out." Finally waiting, Han Li hurriedly nodded, "Moment...... Two quarters of an hour ago, he came out of the Han Xianggong Mansion, but Feng Xianggong did not go to the Luguo Mansion again, but went south. ”

"Nan ......" Han Wei's eyes narrowed, "Where does Feng Jing live now?" ”

Han Li said: "It's in the place where it is leaning against the Vermilion Bird Gate." ”

"Going home?" Han Wei and Han Zhen exchanged a look, and each laughed, "Feng Dangshi really can't do anything. ”

"Wen Kuanfu is afraid that he is going to be on fire."

……………………

"Feng Jing went home after he came out?!"

As soon as he heard a sentence, Wen Weishen suddenly shouted, not only was there no news from Han Gang's side, but even Feng Jing seemed to be going to switch to the portal.

"Be quiet." Wen Jifu reminded unhappily, "Don't disturb the adults' naps." ”

Wen Jifu lowered his voice and spoke to Wen Weishen, but Wen Yanbo, who was pretending to be asleep in the back room, still heard it and shouted, "What's wrong?" ”

The two brothers, Wen Jifu and Wen Weishen, hurriedly went in, "My lord, it's not a big deal. ”

"It's not a big deal, it's just a small thing." How could Wen Yanbo let his son fool the past, "What is a trivial matter?" Let's hear it. ”

Wen Weishen hesitated for a moment and whispered, "After Feng Jing met Han Gang, he went home directly. ”

As Wen Weishen spoke, Wen Jifu paid careful attention to their father, Wen Yanbo. If the elderly are angry, they are prone to accidents. And Wen Yanbo is also an irritable temper.

But Wen Yanbo didn't react much this time, but looked a little curious, "Oh? How did Han Gang convince Feng Dangshi? I really want to see it with my own eyes. ”

……………………

Han Cheng saw the whole process from beginning to end.

Han Cheng didn't know the cause and effect, but he had learned a lot from the conversation between his father and Feng Jing.

However, Han Cheng would rather not understand it himself.

"My lord, that Liao people...... Isn't it ......"

He didn't dare to ask any further.

When the prime minister of the DPRK colludes with the Northern Captives in private, it may not be the step of collusion, but it is only to leak the secrets of the country to the enemy country, which also means a major earthquake in the officialdom. As the culprit, my father is afraid that even his reputation will be ruined.

However, Han Gang seemed to have heard his son's voice from a few simple words, "Tell me your reasons, why do you think so?" ”

Isn't that a matter of course? ’

Han Cheng muttered in his stomach, as long as he thought about it more, it was easy to come to this conclusion.

Wen Yanbo, Feng Jing, Han Jin, Han Wei, should be able to think of it afterwards. It's just a matter of time.

…………………………

Han Jin and Han Wei don't like Wen Yanbo, in their opinion, the prime minister of the Renzong Dynasty, who is now the only remaining fruit in the court, is too selfish.

The Liao State is now prosperous, if it were not for the Great Song Dynasty, the same national fortunes were thriving, and when they were replaced by Renzong and Yingzong, they would have died under the iron hooves of the Khitan cavalry. However, once the military power is scattered, no matter which side it is, it is powerless to confront the Liao, and in the end it will only be the people on the northern border who will be unlucky.

"This golden retriever is still so slippery." Han Zhen chuckled, and the wrinkles on his face let go.

Originally, they were ready to stand on Han Gang's side, especially the current situation, so that they would not stand on the opposite side of the political hall. Han Gang persuaded Feng Jing again, which made things much easier to handle.

Han Wei was still a little puzzled, "Zhang Dian and Han Gang are both juniors, can he pull down his old face?" ”

Han Zhen guessed, "Maybe there is something in Han Gang's hand." ”

Which dignitary family doesn't have any private affairs, and if you really want to force people to death, you can always find a reason. Zhang Dian and Han Gang have been prime ministers for so long, and how many years have they controlled the court, if they didn't have this ability, they would have been swallowed up long ago.

The political affairs hall has a lot of money in hand, and the officials from outside the road and the elders of Zhishi can't compete with it at all. If it weren't for the Queen Mother's illness and retreat, the Son of Heaven lost his morality, so that the prime ministers had to find a reasonable and humane support for their dictatorship, there would be no scenery of today's pilgrimage to the elders.

Hearing the conversation between his grandfathers, Han Li also let go of his worries about the township, and said to his father with a low smile: "Duke Lu Guogong wants to demonstrate, but now it's embarrassing." ”

But Han Li didn't get a response from his father, he glanced down at Han Zongru, only to find that his father was frowning, and the sweat on his head and face was gurgling down like a stream.

"Daddy, what's wrong?" Han Li suddenly became nervous and hurriedly asked.

"It's not quite right, the Liao people are strange, it seems that something is wrong......"

Han Zongru said a little upside down, but it made Han Li's heart lift.

"Little monkey, what are you talking to your father about?"

Han Jin's voice suddenly rang out. It was very loud, and Han Li turned around in shock, but saw that Han Zhen and Han Wei didn't talk anymore, and they were all looking at this side.

Han Li opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. Han Zongru blinked his eyes twice and cleared his throat, "Actually, it's like this......"
