The fire burned more and more vigorously by the wind, and the smoke billowed between the heavens and the earth, and the good grain was reduced to ashes. Lou Su's eyes were red, and he almost wanted to drip blood! Ma Wu's expression was gloomy, and he looked at the burning wheat fields around him without saying a word. If it is said that this happened in Huazhou, it can be said that it is reasonable, after all, it is closer to the Zijin Tiger. But this is the same state! Xu Wei's horse army actually penetrated hundreds of miles into my realm! Playing with the horse army, that is the means of our northerners, Xu Hu'er actually dares to get an axe! What is especially hateful is this southeast wind! The fire borrowed the power of the wind, and it continued to spread, and the losses were heavy! These are nothing, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, this is still the beginning...... In the next few days, the cavalry of the Western Army from Jingzhaofu and Yaozhou successively attacked Huazhou and Tongzhou, setting fire to the fields and harassing the Jin army, sometimes as many as a dozen in one day! These horse troops, most of them hundreds of horsemen, less than dozens of horsemen, wandered uncertainly, never fell in love with war, ran when they set fire, and slipped away when they shot an arrow, not giving the Jin army a chance to react at all.

And the rebels of all walks of life in the Guanzhong Plain responded as if they had also received orders. Burning, robbing, robbing, making a lot of trouble. This kind of tactics that are almost rogues gives Lou Su a lot of headaches, and he knows the flexibility and mobility of the cavalry best. Song Jun did this, although he did not let the Jin army lose his troops, but what he lost was the food he was looking at!

In a fit of rage, Lou Su vowed to take revenge! Since the Song army doesn't care about any bird and peace discussion, what should I do with it? The Purple Gold Tiger must be made to pay the price, otherwise it will only fuel his arrogance! This time, Ma Wu didn't persuade again, he also felt that Xu Wei had to be beaten, otherwise he would really have to go to the house to uncover the tiles.

However, at this time, Xu Wei, who was far away in Qinzhou, didn't know how lively the Guanzhong Plain was. He was very depressed and presiding over the military meeting of the Division. He was nominally assigned by the executive to temporarily manage the control department, but in fact, what he really managed was the troops under his command. You Xu Jiu have become famous in the past few years, but what? When other generals are fighting, you may still wear open-gear pants, who will take you seriously?

As soon as I heard that the Formation Division was going to organize a counteroffensive, it would require the coordination and cooperation of all parties. The representatives sent by the commanders and guards of all roads either poured bitter water or shirked in every possible way, or said that we are not at peace there, and the party members have been preparing to move recently. Either they say that the food and grass materials are not complete, and there is no way to send troops, but there is always a reason to find it anyway.

What made Xu Wei angry the most was his cousin Xu Yan, who said that when the Jingyuan army went to Shaanxi, he lost his troops and lost his vitality, and he wanted to send troops, but he was also powerless. Xu Wei doesn't know yet? The Jingyuan Army did have losses, but I made up for it. When the eldest brother was in Shaanxi, there was no shortage of soldiers, right? Li Gang was still a Xuanfu envoy at that time, and he didn't give less food, right? Are you crying poor now? Don't think that if you are a few years older than me, you won't take the Sprinkle family as an uncle, little thing, you are still far from me!

On May 15, Xu Wei got up early, and today was the day when Xu Liang set off to return to Tokyo to report on his work, and he was going to see him off. There are too many acquaintances in the pavilion, all of them are colleagues from various departments, and they will inevitably greet each other as soon as they go out. In the corridor, around the corner, on the stairs, in the hall, this is also called Xu Jingluo, that is also called Xu Dashuai, Xu Wei's head turned like a convulsion, and the smile on his face was almost frozen.

Xu Liu sat at a table in the corner of the hall, asked for some breakfast, and was watching his cousin return the salute everywhere. When the other party walked in front of him, he smiled and asked, "How do you feel?" ”

"What?" Xu Wei sat down across from him and asked puzzled.

"Now Shaanxi is up to the officials of the various divisions, down to the people of Pingtou, who doesn't know you Xu Dashuai?" Xu Liudao.

Xu Wei chuckled, but did not answer, picked up the bun on the table and took a bite, and as soon as he drank the porridge, he shouted: "Damn, this is too foolish!" You can't cheat just because there are too many people, right? Is this a fucking porridge? The rice soup is thicker than that, too! ”

Xu Liang picked up his chopsticks and said: "Let's do it, most of the officials from various departments and offices in Shaanxi have crowded into the pavilion, and it is difficult enough to be a family." ”

A staff officer of the Xuanfu Department who was at the table took over and said: "That's it, Xu Dashuai was angry, and when the lower official first came, he went to the restaurant to eat for two days out of his own pocket. ”

Xu Wei was also entangled in this issue, and said while eating: "Sixth brother, it's hot, hurry up and finish eating, and hurry early before the sun comes out." I went to Tokyo to see my uncle and greeted me. ”

"You don't have to say, I know. You can do your best here, and you don't have to force it. "Although Xu Liang said that his rank was far worse than that of his cousin, first, he was a civil official, secondly, he represented the left-behind division, and third, he was his brother, so he was not polite.

Xu Wei responded, drank the bowl of rice soup in three or two sips, nibbled on two buns, and scolded a few more words. He was ready to resign and go to the Xuanfu Division. At that moment, there was a noise in the street outside the gate. He looked at it casually, and saw a mule cart parked at the entrance of the pavilion, and several men on horseback were carrying weapons and were accompanying him. Coming directly to the pavilion for the year, Xu Jiu didn't care, he bowed his hand to Xu Liang, and said: "Brother be careful all the way, I have arranged it properly, and I will be escorted by people and horses." ”

"Okay, you go and be busy, cherish more. The fourth brother and third sister and sister-in-law and sister-in-law, I won't quit, you just say it on your behalf. Xu Liang got up and said.

Xu Wei nodded and walked straight out. Fang walked to the door, and before his right foot stepped out of the threshold, he saw a man coming down from the mule cart. In his fifties, he wears an ordinary blue-gray straight jacket, wears a top and foot hood on his head, his face is thin, his facial features are three-dimensional like a knife, his eyes are bright, and he has a long beard under his chin, which is also neatly combed. Although he was dressed plainly, and he was also a little old, his hands and feet were neat, and he jumped straight out of the car, and after landing on the ground, he looked around. Between looking forward to it, there is a style of everyone.

Xu Wei was looking out at this time, he had already crossed the mule cart, and the queen brought the war horse, he had already grabbed the saddle with both hands, and one foot had stepped on the stirrup, and his body suddenly stopped.

When the soldier saw it, he asked in a low voice, "Big handsome?" ”

Xu Wei looked at him sideways: "Did I see it wrong?" ”

The soldier was confused by his question, and said cautiously: "Dashuai, the villain didn't understand." ”

Xu Wei suddenly left the war horse, and a few strides back, the man was heading towards the pavilion. Because there are too many officials living here, the management is inevitably chaotic, and there is no one to receive them. Xu Jiu chased forward, deliberately went around in front of the other party, and looked sideways. His heart was beating wildly, and he quickly stopped and said, "Uncle! ”

When the man heard him call, he also stopped, took a closer look, raised his eyebrows, walked two steps quickly to him, grabbed his hand and said, "Xu Jiu!" "Who do you say this man is? It is Zijin Tiger's uncle, the former privy envoy, who stayed in Tokyo Xu Shao!

The uncle and nephew were very surprised, they didn't expect to meet in this place, and they didn't know where to start for a while. After looking at each other, they had to laugh.

"Uncle, the sixth brother is having dinner in the room, and he was supposed to leave for Tokyo today, but he didn't expect the third uncle to come." Xu Wei said that, and led Xu Shao to walk inside.

Xu Liang is a Sven man, chewing slowly, eating extremely attentively. It wasn't until Xu Jiu brought Xu Shao to him that he raised his head and took a look.

His reaction was the same as that of his cousin, and he suspected that he had mistaken it. How is this possible? My father, who was left behind in Tokyo, how could he be here? But the one standing in front of him is clearly the father of the living! Can it be fake? In a panic, he threw away the bread, vomited the remnants of rice, got up and bowed, "Father." ”

Xu Shao waved his hand and motioned for him to remain silent. There was no place for him to speak, so he said, "For my father, go and arrange the lodging first, and you will come to my room later." ”

When Xu Wei heard this, he immediately turned back to the soldier and said, "Go and call the person in charge." ”

Not long after, a low-level official wearing a cyan official robe hurriedly came, it is estimated that he had learned that Xu Dashuai was not very satisfied with today's breakfast, so he looked a little panicked, and said from afar: "What do you command?" ”

Xu Wei didn't speak, only to see Xu Shao take out an object from his side and hand it to the official. The latter took it and found that it was Zhang Guanping, unfolded it and took a look, and suddenly changed color! After a few more careful glances, he hurriedly returned his hands and bowed: "The lower official has seen the Xianggong." ”

"Go and arrange food for the house." Xu Liang urged.

These days, the house in the pavilion is very nervous, but the official doesn't dare to cry out half-bitterly, whoever comes, can ignore it, but this one is really sluggish!

After the steward left, the three of them sat down temporarily and said something inconsequential, Xu Liu and Xu Jiu were very interested, and they didn't ask Xu Shao why he was here. After a while, the house was arranged, and the father, son, uncle and nephew went with the post officer.

The house arranged for Xu Shao is an independent small courtyard. The east and west two-compartment rooms, with a small atrium, the environment is very good. The steward's reaction was also fast, and he even squeezed out a post guard to listen to the call.

Entering the flower hall, Xu Liangcai asked, "Why did my father come to the pavilion at this time?" ”

Xu Shao sat down and replied: "I arrived in Qinzhou yesterday, but it was too late and the city gate was closed. I didn't want to disturb the officials and people, so I spent the night outside the city and only entered the city this morning. ”

Xu Liang couldn't help but worry: "The situation is so chaotic, my father's body is in danger, so I really shouldn't take risks." ”

Xu Shao looked at his nephew at this time and said with a smile: "With my Xu family's ninth child, why are you still afraid that someone will make trouble?" Ziang, the last time you and my uncle and nephew met, was it when you helped your father's coffin to be buried in Beijing? ”

"Third Uncle has a good memory, exactly! Since then, I haven't seen him for several years, and the third uncle is much older. Xu Wei said.

Xu Shao smiled indifferently, subconsciously touched the gray hair on his head, and sighed: "The national disaster is at the head, and there is nothing to do." Before I came to Shaanxi, I went to worship your father, and at that time I suddenly felt that I was the only one of the three brothers, and I was so ......sad and sad."

When Xu Wei heard him mention Xu Zhang, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Seeing this, Xu Liang diverted the topic and said, "Why is my father here?" ”
