Later, the north and the south negotiated peace, and the news reached Shaanxi, and Muhan lifted the siege of Chang'an. However, under the rule of Jingzhao Mansion, Wannian County and Yaozhou garrisoned troops, waiting to receive the city hukou. Zhang Jun said as he picked up the teacup again, it seemed that he was really thirsty, so he just didn't drink all the dregs.

Zhi Zhonggu took advantage of this gap and asked, "So Xu Wei attacked him unprepared, and he was taken by surprise?" "If that's the case, then it's not going to be easy. Now that the prime ministers and vice ministers of the DPRK and China are all in favor of peace talks, Xu Wei's actions are contrary to their intentions and will be used as an excuse!

"No, it is precisely the Jurchens who provoke trouble. After the main force of the Jin army retreated, it was stationed in the Wannian Wanyan Yinshu Kebu, which often plagued the people. Regarding this matter, the Shaanxi side was still relatively restrained and did not take drastic actions. Yinshu can be more and more unbridled, and actually attacked Qin Feng's army transporting supplies and snatched food. ”

"So Xu Wei did it?" Orihiko asked again.

Zhang Jun said with a smile: "Don't worry, the privy councillor is still to come." When the Jin army attacked the city, the canal was blocked, and after the peace was negotiated, Xu Wei sent the troops of the Shuai Division to dredge, but he was attacked by the Jin army again, and suffered heavy casualties. Xu Dashuai was furious, and then sent troops to fight. Within a few days, two battles and two victories, killing and wounding tens of thousands of Jin troops, and capturing a number of war horses. Now around Jingzhao Mansion, there is no shadow of the Jin Army. ”

Orihiko slapped the table: "Okay!" It deserves to be the Purple Gold Tiger! It's so bold to fight! But after admiring it, he looked embarrassed and added, "Although he has contributed a lot, he has caused trouble for himself." ”

Zhang Jun's face changed: "Where did the cardinal minister start with this?" ”

"Some people in the DPRK and China want to make a fuss about this matter, accusing Xu Wei of violating moderation and acting without authorization." Zhi Zhonggu said helplessly.

"What makes sense of that? The Jin army took the initiative to provoke, killed our people, and attacked the Western Army, and Xu Dashuai was forced to fight back. How can it be a violation of moderation and acting without permission? Zhang Jun questioned.

Zhi Yanzhi shook his head: "Having said that, others may not think so in their hearts. ”

"Humph! Xu Jingluo's actions, those are all Li Xuanfu's instructions, whoever wants to splash dirty water, I'm afraid they can't splash it on him. Zhang Jun sneered.

Orihiko was overjoyed when he heard this: "Oh? Is it what Li Gang means? He approved? That's okay! Li Gang was originally a Xuanfu envoy and had the right to 'act cheaply'! Since Xu Wei followed his instructions, there was no problem. Not only is there no fault, but there is merit! Go, come with me into the palace and face the king! ”

"In such a hurry?" Zhang Jun was a little surprised.

"You don't know, Sticky Han sent an envoy to Xing before the army, and it was very fierce. The official family is also very headache, just waiting for you to come back and reveal the truth. As he spoke, the man stood up.

Zhang Jun took the case: "He still dares to send someone to question? Xia Guan dared to confront the Jin envoy face to face! See who's in charge! ”

"If it is reasonable, what is the situation today? You have to rely on fighting. Orihiko sighed heartily.

"Don't be afraid to fight! Xu Jingluo said...... "Zhang Jun was very angry, and he couldn't hold back as soon as he started talking. Zhi Yanzhi had already urged him to hurry into the palace to face the saint.

But it was said that Zhao Huan, the son of heaven, was visiting him with Deshou Palace. Since Emperor Daojun abdicated, especially after returning to the capital from the southeast, he had to be honest. His team, such as Tong Guan Cai Jing and others, has long been cleaned, and no one has left with him except his wife. Fortunately, this emperor still has some artistic pursuits, and when he is not the emperor, he paints, writes, and plays the piano, otherwise how sad should life be?

At this time, the father and son were in an attic dedicated to collecting the emperor's ink treasures. Zhao Ji will stand in front of a big case, and he is writing. gave up the big position, he seemed to have a little less majesty, a little more bland, and when he wrote, his demeanor was focused and meticulous.

Zhao Huan stood on the side, tilted his head, put his hands behind his back, and watched. What the Emperor Taishang is writing is a "Thousand Character Essay", not the thin and straight font he is good at, but cursive. The pen walks the dragon and snake, and the weather is thousands! As a son, he didn't have the calligraphy attainments, he just felt that the emperor wrote quickly, and the words were like jumping on the paper!

"Good! Good word! Zhao Huan suddenly praised.

As soon as he spoke, Zhao Ji's pen stopped, and his expression was not unusual. continued to wave, but the words written in the back did not have the previous aura no matter how you look at it. Put the pen on the shelf, look at the unfinished work, and be silently distracted. How Zhao Ji is the emperor, later generations will not be able to evaluate it, but he is still very respected for his calligraphy and painting attainments, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a master. can meet a spectator who doesn't know how to do it, and the master has no problem, especially although this spectator is his son, he is the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

Qian Cheng trotted in and reported: "Official, Zhang Jun is back." ”

Zhao Huan turned around and asked, "Where is it now?" ”

"And the Folding Privy is waiting outside the palace for announcement." Qian Cheng replied.

Zhao Huan hurriedly saluted Zhao Ji, and after saying a few words, he walked out. The emperor didn't reply, but only crumpled the unfinished work on the case and threw it into the basket.

Zhao Guanjia rushed to the Vertical Arch Hall in a hurry and summoned Zhang Jun to see him. It is inevitable to push the gold mountain, pour the jade pillar, and the mountain calls long live. Zhao Huan split his head and asked: "What is going on in Shaanxi after all?" ”

Zhang Jun then repeated what Fang had just said to Zhi Yan. After hearing this, Zhao Huan didn't like it at first, but asked Zhengse: "Are these one-sided words of Shaanxi officials, or are they verified by Zhang Qing himself?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the ministers entered Shaanxi, and they didn't dare to slack off and perfunctory. The piles and piles are all verified by Weichen personally, and there is no doubt about it! Zhang Jun replied firmly.

The big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and Zhao Huan leaned against the throne, finally breathing a sigh of relief. Of the young generals I intend to promote, there are still two more who have become climates, and they are not in vain.

Suddenly remembering something, he sat up straight and asked, "According to Zhang Qing's opinion, what is the situation in Shaanxi?" ”

"The minister has not been in Shaanxi for a long time, and he does not dare to judge easily. But Xu Jingluo once said that he was brewing a counteroffensive, but at this time there was news that the peace agreement had been reached, so he gave up! Zhang Jun said.

When the Son of Heaven heard it: "Counterattack? Xu Weizhen said that? ”

It is true that Xu Jingluo's original words, he said that the Jin army has been in Shaanxi for a long time, and there is a shortage of grain and grass. It is necessary to do the things of Tuntian in order to gain a firm foothold. At this time, the counterattack, the idea of stealing the gold people in Shaanxi. Zhang Jun replied truthfully.

Zhao Huan was overjoyed, and he was a little unsteady, got up and walked out of the imperial case, walking back and forth. It seems that he is going to make old mistakes again, and when he sees that the situation is not good, he is shocked, and when he encounters a turning point, he is fascinated. Fortunately, he endured it this time, praised Zhang Jun a few words, promised to have a meritorious life, and let him retreat.

Song Longxing for three years, Jin Tianhui for nine years. This year, the Jin army fell into the quagmire of Shaanxi and was in a dilemma. During this period, the Jin State used troops on two fronts, attacking the Song Dynasty all the way and pursuing the Khitan Yelu Dashi all the way. On both fronts, no major breakthroughs have been made. Yelu Dashi Jianyuan was proclaimed emperor and re-established the Khitan Dynasty. The Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty, mainly the troops of the Yongxing Army Lu Shuaisi, stubbornly defended Chang'an and waited for an opportunity to counterattack. If it weren't for the Song-Kim Peace Conference, this war would be even more ugly.

The rulers of the Kingdom of Jin began to review. Most believe that we should concentrate our forces and stop using troops on both fronts. At this time, Ah Guta's relatives and blood, his inseparable younger brother, and Wushu's elder brother, Wanyan Liduo proposed that while Song and Jin were discussing peace, they should destroy Yelu Dashi's pseudo-Liao. The reason why the country established by Yelu Dashi is called a puppet dynasty is because Yelu Yanxi, the last emperor of the Liao State, was still a prisoner in the Dajin Kingdom.

Yan Liduo believes that although Yelu Dashi has been away from the Western Regions for many years, it is now more and more climate, and he dares to establish a country. Moreover, it is said that Dashi is still secretly linking up with the party Xiang Xia Guo, and if these two join forces, it will be enough for the Jurchens to have a headache.

Dangxiang Xia Guo may be the most troublesome force in the Jurchen Jin Kingdom. It's not because of how powerful the Xia State is, before the fall of the Liao State, the Xia State had been beaten by the Western Army to the point of losing its temper. When Jin destroyed Liao, the 30,000 Xia army once aided the Khitan. After the death of the Liao State, the Jurchens adopted an attitude of seeking appeasement towards the Xia State, forcing the party members to claim the title of minister. At this time, the Xia State no longer had the arrogance of competing with the Great Song Dynasty in the west, and gradually became a vassal of a great power.

The reason why Jin Guo has a headache is because he doesn't know what to do with him. Let's fight, I have already made a lot of enemies, and I can't do it. If you don't fight it, I don't believe in it very much, and I always feel that it has an affair with the Khitan remnants.

Ronrido proposed to focus on the pursuit of Yelu Dashi, which was supported by a considerable part of the civil and military forces. But his younger brother Wushu disagreed. I wanted to lead the army to attack from the east road, collect the daimyo all the way, break Shandong, sweep the Central Plains, and encircle Tokyo, making a lot of money. In his opinion, the destruction of the Song Dynasty is just like that, I hit the grass and rabbits this time, and they all hit the Yangtze River, and when I go back, I should sweep the south of the Yangtze River and drive the group surnamed Zhao into the sea.

His "presumptuous" suggestion naturally aroused strong opposition from the ministers. The Southern Dynasties were not something that could be conquered in the short term. Although you have achieved good results in Hebei, Shandong, and the Central Plains. But the Western Route Army suffered a setback, and Lou Su was almost wiped out in Shaanxi. The Prime Minister of the People's Republic of China, Mu Han, personally went out to conquer the Yanyan and Guanzhong Plains. However, the main force of the Western Army has still not been wiped out, and this place in Shaanxi will still be the main battlefield of the Song-Jin Battle in the future!

Right now, I, Dajin, should take advantage of the Song Jin Negotiation and Peace, recuperate, accumulate strength, and temporarily withdraw from the army. Moreover, the matter of establishing a different surname in Lianghe has also been mentioned for a few years, and now it should be time to implement it. Secure the acquired territory before making the next move.

In the end, the forces in favor of the Song truce prevailed. Wu Qimai appointed Wan Yan Liduo as "Amai Bo Jilie". Amam, in the Jurchen language, means "first". Sticky Han's position is "the national theory is extremely strong", which is equivalent to the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, the position of False Liduo is the first assistant to the prime minister, sharing military and political affairs for him. (Bo Jilie is a kind of collective leadership system in the Jin country) Sticky Han's henchmen saw that the situation was not good, and flew to Shaanxi. Dajin Guoxiang panicked, I was working desperately outside to expand the territory for Dajin, you stabbed me in the back and sent Liduo to divide my power? Regardless of the complexity of the situation in Shaanxi, nor can he take care of the Zijin Tiger showing his teeth and claws, he quickly returned to China with the army. Before leaving, he designated Yan Lousu to pass through Shaanxi, and Han Changma was the fifth deputy.

After Lou Su left, he knew that he was unable to launch a large-scale attack, so he concentrated on holding on, abandoning the four prefectures of Ning, Fang, Sui, and Yao, and only garrisoning Yan'an, Yanzhou, Tongzhou, Huazhou, and the security army, sending troops to Tuntian, and using Zhang Shen to come forward to recruit rebels, in an attempt to stabilize the eastern part of Shaanxi.

At this time, Xu Huiyan of Suide and the Zhejia Army of Jufu Road were still insisting on the War of Resistance. Shaanxi made an overall analysis and believed that this was a good opportunity to drive the Jin army across the Yellow River. Xu Wei was strong and waited for the beginning of spring, and once the supplies were in place, he would launch a counteroffensive.

To this end, he reorganized the Hujie Army, according to the establishment of the forbidden army, and organized the whole army into ten armies, each with 5,000 people, with one member of the command, one deputy commander, one member of the command, five members in command, each leading two battalions, all of which were renumbered, and each was given a battle flag. One of them, not part of the Tenth Army, is called "Xuanfeng", which is in the hands of Xu Wei himself, with 7,000 horse troops, and is composed of cavalry of the two armies of Xu Chong. There are 5,000 foot soldiers, and they are selected to be filled by fierce and good fighters, and they are the most well-equipped and are regarded as elite. Yang Yan, Wu Lan, Zhang Xian, Ma Tai, Du Feihu, Yang Zaixing, and Xu Cheng are all officials and rulers.

So far, the Ma Bu Army, which was controlled by Xu Wei, totaled 70,000 people, and became the commander of the Shaanxi Zhulu Guard, with the most powerful troops. He not only temporarily presided over the Formulation Division, but was also appointed as Qin Fenglu's pacification envoy. However, there are pros and cons to this matter. On the positive side, Qin Feng is a place where heroes come into play, as said in the seed master, Qin Feng has the most brave and warlike warriors in the world. And the terrain is conducive to defense, which can be used as a foundation. On the disadvantage, in order to move the place for Xu Wei, Zhenjiang Xingzai transferred the former Qin Fengshuai Zhao Dian to the Xingzai. This personnel change not only transferred Zhao Dian, but also withdrew the troops, and the Fuzhou County Army to which Qin Feng belonged all the way needed Xu Wei to deploy defense.

In the first month, the Shaanxi Zhusi Cheng Zhao withdrew to Qinzhou. Xu Wei thought twice that Qin Feng, as his future base, must have extremely reliable people to sit in charge. And now he is ready to deal with the Jurchens, and he has to be stationed in Chang'an City, so he asked Xuanfu Si Wang Shu, and his brother Xu Sheng temporarily took over Qin Fengshuai's duties and powers, and was drawn to the three armies for protection.

At the beginning of February, Zhenjiang sent envoys to Fuzhou occupied by the Jin army to help cede the land in the city and pacify the people. In Yan'an, Dunzhou, Huazhou, Tongzhou and other places controlled by the Jin army, the progress was relatively smooth. But in Suide, there was an accident. Xu Huiyan, the commander of Suide, refused to surrender the city and executed the officials of the Jin State who entered the city as a sign of resistance. Lou Su was furious when he heard the news, and scolded the Southern Dynasty who had come back to report the news, and ordered Han Chang to lead more than 10,000 troops to attack.

Xu Huiyan was not afraid, determined to die, led the whole city of soldiers and civilians to arrive, and contacted his wife and uncle to ask for help, painfully stated the stakes, and asked him to bring in troops to help. Han Chang, as a famous general, suffered a big loss in Chang'an City, but withdrew his anger in Suide. led the crowd to attack, and the city of Suide was in danger. However, just when Xu Huiyan and the Suide army and people insisted on the War of Resistance, the Linfu Road behind them was broken, but they followed the will, surrendered the city, and withdrew the army. Leaving Suide in a situation of isolation and helplessness...... Dingrong, Tongguan.

A confusing scene arises here. On the pass of Tongguan, the Song army has a clear banner, and the archers press the strings and arrows, just waiting to be launched. Yao Pingzhong, the guard general of Shaanzhou, fully armored, stood at the juncture, looking at the Jin army in front of the pass. There are about a thousand people on the other side, and in the face of the Song army's yaowu, I wish you nothing. Because they did not come to fight, but were ordered to "gift" the Zhijia army out of the country.

It was nearly noon, and the sound of horses' hooves could be faintly heard from the north. Both the Song and Jin armies looked north, but saw the crowd suddenly appearing. The spears are like forests, and the armor soldiers are like walls, all of which come to Tongguan. The mighty infantry was fully armed, escorting the convoy forward quickly. The cavalry was responsible for breaking the rear and rushing forward.

After a while, there was a lot of noise, and the Zhejia army, which was ordered to retreat south, came. Yao Pingzhong raised it, and the archers on the pass raised their arrows, because they saw that behind the Zhejia army, there was also a Jin army! Is this a "gift"? This is clearly an "escort"! It's clearly "surveillance"!

Several horsemen galloped over, all wearing the official robes of the Southern Dynasty, and when they reached the pass, they called upward: "Yao Zhizhou, please switch on!" ”

Yao Pingzhong didn't look at them, stared at Jin Jun behind him, and said loudly: "Without Xu Jingluo's Jun will, Shu Pingzhong will not dare to obey his fate!" ”

When Song Guan heard this, he was surprised. Zijin Tiger is in Chang'an, why is it still here? The Dingrong army has fallen into the hands of the Jin people! I saw a number of horses coming, the first one was mighty, it was the main general of the folded family, and the pacification envoy of the Dunfu Road, which could be sought. After asking Mingxing to be an official, he called upward: "Yao Zhizhou, the imperial court has reached the deadline, don't miss the deadline, and please switch it quickly." ”

To him, Yao Pingzhong was very polite, and hugged his fists on the close and said: "Fold the scripture, please wait, Xu Dashuai will personally see off the scripture!" ”

Fold can ask for a big change in face! What the? Xu Wei came to Dingrong? He is now handsome all the way, and the Jin army hates him to the core, how can he risk himself? How do you know that at the beginning of the first month, Xu Wei had already sent troops and horses to force the Jin army to retreat to the north of the Wei River.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of hooves, and saw the dust in the west, Yao Pingzhong shouted on the city: "Xu Jing has arrived!" ”

Zhi Keqiu's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly said to Zhi Yanye next to him: "Pass my general order, the whole army is on alert, you must pay special attention to protecting Xu Jingluo's safety!" "Alas, what does the Purple Gold Tiger think, this is also too risky!

After a while, I saw one hundred and ten horsemen galloping over, and a big flag was ringing. The army looked over, but saw that on the "loyal and brave" military flag, there was a big purple tiger tattooed! And this tiger is not like a claw with its teeth and claws, but a front body lying on the ground, waiting to pounce on its claws, which is daunting. Just by looking at this military flag, you know that the Purple Gold Tiger has arrived.

Sure enough, under the handsome flag, a general in his twenties, dressed in a purple official robe, with a gold belt piercing his eyes around his waist, a top hat, leather boots, and a good horse riding a majestic horse, fluttered to the ground. Look at the accompanying knights, all of them are martial, everyone is fierce, and they all hold spears and hang bows and arrows. When the Jin army saw it, it was like a great enemy! There was a commotion in the Jin army waiting at the pass, and they all moved closer to the troops behind the Zhejia army, as if they were preparing for battle.

When Xu Wei jumped off his horse, the Jin army had all retreated, and Zhi Yanye immediately led the army in the middle to protect his safety. The Purple Golden Tiger didn't see it, and only called out loudly: "Fold the scriptures!" What's the point of folding? Xu Wei came to see him off! ”

Zhe Keqiu hurriedly led his brothers and nephews to dismount and quickly meet them. Xu Wei saw him, picked up the hem of his clothes in the midst of the army and ran, approached the front, and was about to salute, but he grabbed his hand, and tightened it again.

The two broke the siege in Pingyang, and during the battle of Dingrong, they both had the friendship of fighting side by side. Now goodbye, but it is a matter of things and people, and I can't help but feel a lot of emotion. Zhe Keqiu didn't have time to think about it, and said quickly: "Xu Jingluo is an important minister of the country, and the safety of Shaanxi is at stake, so why underestimate the enemy?" ”

Xu Wei pointed to the Jin Army in the north and said with a smile: "That's all? "When the words fell, the sound of hooves was like thunder! Looking further west, I can only see the torrent-like horse army swarming!

Zhe Keqiu looked at it for a while, and nodded heavily: "Xu Jingluo's department, if the soldiers are strong." ”

"Well, so what? Gold thieves are rampant, Xu was supposed to gallop with Zhe Jingluo and expel Beiyi, but ......"

Seeing Xu Wei sighing, he was also very helpless, and looked at the brothers and nephews and said: "I have to obey the Ming Zhao." I thought that I would break my family, receive the grace of the country, and Zhenfu Prefecture for hundreds of years, but I really didn't expect that I would leave in this situation. After finishing speaking, he shook his head.

Regarding the withdrawal of the Zhejia army from Lin, Fu, and Feng, Xu Wei did not understand very much. Later, Ma Kuo explained to him that the Zhujia family of Dunfu was also commonly referred to as the Western Army, but its geographical location belonged to Hedong. They were in a narrow corner, with the Dangxiang Xia Kingdom to the north and west, and Yan'an was their only way back in the event of the fall of Hedong. From the moment of the fall of Yan'an, the Fuzhou family was already destined to fall into a desperate situation. And there is another crucial point, that is, the Zhejia family is a member of the party, not my race. You Xu Wei can take a risk, you want to fight one game at a time, but you can't. They themselves have the privilege to set up their own officials and collect their own taxes, which belongs to the melon fields and plums. If you don't obey the orders of the central government, you can imagine the consequences. I'm afraid that the Jin army also wants them to resist stubbornly and destroy this strong force of the Western Army in a good name.

It was based on this that Xu Wei forced the Jin army south of Weishui to the north bank in advance. I came to deliver it in person today, in fact, to protect the folded family and prevent accidents.

Turning his head to the north, he saw that the Jin army was still there, and he didn't like it, so he summoned Xu Chengdao: "You send someone to inform the gold thief, just say that our army is not here to fight today, if they are still there, this commander doesn't mind fighting." It is my Xu Wei's honor to join forces with the Zhejia family again. ”

Xu Cheng took the order and left.

Zhe Keqiu looked at him and said with a smile: "In Shaanxi today, except for the Purple Golden Tiger, who dares to say such wild words?" ”

Xu Wei chuckled: "That's it, this is not a place to stay for a long time, let's turn the scriptures and go on the road." When I arrived in Zhenjiang, I saw the Folding Privy, please greet you. Let's just say that I, Xu Wei, always remember that when Qi County robbed grain, he flew horses to help. ”

He immediately summoned a few officers and said to Xu Wei: "Xu Jingluo, these people are all fierce generals of the horse army of Linfu, and they must be able to use them." When I went to Jiangnan, I didn't know when I would be able to return to my homeland, so I left a few of him for the commander to drive. ”

This gift is not light, because the Zhe family is raising their own soldiers, so Zhe Ke asks for this power. Xu Wei was not humble, because the officer who was proficient in the tactics of the Ma Army was exactly what he urgently needed at the moment, and after thanking him, he sent him a fold to ask for the road, out of Tongguan, and went to the south of the Yangtze River.
