Early the next morning, Lu Fei reported Kou Zhun's name and resume, and promoted him as the head of the first army, and the army also approved it happily, there is no shortage of soldiers in the army, only scholars who can read and break words, and they are more calm when they lead the soldiers in many generals, and the master around the magistrate has the same thing. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The barracks were bustling, the army was reorganizing, and today the division was going to be opened, and Lu Fei came to find Li Jilong alone.

Li Jilong, who temporarily supported the commander of the Japanese army, was also sad these days, praising the victory of the Japanese army in vain, he really didn't have the face to take these tens of thousands of people back to see the contemptuous eyes of the people in Bianliang City, and he didn't want to hear the sound of the whole army's family members crying on the road when the army entered Bianliang.

A few of his own soldiers were in the house asking for their bags, and the army was about to set off after breakfast.

"General Qibing, the commander of the First Army in the Left Chamber, Lu Fei asked to see him."

Li Jilong nodded gloomily, and threw the wool cloak he was about to put on on the back of the chair.

When he was young, Lu Fei walked in in a military uniform.

"The last general will see the general."

Li Jilong nodded and said slowly: "The army is about to be launched, what are you going to do?" Yesterday, I heard that there was a forbidden army harassing the people at Shanyang Bridge, it was your people, right? ”

Lu Fei arched his hand and said: "I can't hide anything from General Li, a little thing, the last general has never been out of line." ”

Li Jilong hummed and said: "Now that the Japanese army has been swept away, you people who lead troops must be more serious about military discipline and don't conflict with the people, do you have something to do with me?" ”

Lu Fei looked at the several pro-soldiers who were busy in the house, Li Jilong frowned, and said, "You all go down." ”

"No!"

Lu Fei closed the door and poured a cup of tea for Li Jilong, if you want to fight Liao, you must first convince Li Jilong.

"General Lee!" Lu Fei was full of Kenche: "Are you really willing to be such a disgraced class teacher?" ”

Li Jilong squinted and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Lu Fei said: "In the first battle of Sanchuankou, Dai Shuai was killed, and more than 40,000 people of the Western Expeditionary Army were killed. ”

Li Jilong frowned: "What do you want to say?" ”

Lu Fei smiled and said, "The last general thinks that General Li can respond to every call in the army, be loved by the whole army, and make the official family more favored." ”

Li Jilong snorted and said, "One call? Are you really thinking about this for Ben? ”

Lu Fei Zhengse said: "Of course, the general, imagine that the entire Western Expeditionary Army was punished, and what about you, the general, Ming descended and Ming Sheng, took over the entire Japanese army, although Shi Juma was deprived of military power, Ming descended and secretly ascended, he is now in charge of the internal guard of the Forbidden Palace, although the official position is not as good as the general, but this position is a cronie of the official family, which shows that the official family still looks down on Shi Juma." ”

Li Jilong snorted: "You are provoking the monarch and the ministers, dividing the royal family, you are so bold, by the way, I think about it, there seems to be a gap between you and the stone horse." He remembered what Dane had said before, Lu Fei was a talent, but his ambition was too great, and he had to use it and guard against it.

Lu Fei said: "There is a gap, it is true to consider the general, general, although you are now the commander of the Japanese army, do you know that the current Japanese army has already complained, Dai Shuai was killed, the whole army was punished, the soldiers did not dare to complain about the court, he would only sprinkle this resentment on the head of the general, Dai Shuai became famous for his death, and in the eyes of the soldiers, you stepped on Dane's corpse to rise." ”

Li Jilong slapped the table: "Presumptuous, who dares to say that, thunder and rain are not the grace of heaven, and whether it is a reward or a punishment comes from the official family." ”

Lu Fei hurriedly said: "The last general can understand, but many soldiers don't think so, they only know that they won the battle but did not get a promotion, and the general you are promoted, not because you can fight well, but because of your identity as a royal prince, this kind of rumor is definitely not the last general's mouth." ”

Li Jilong has never heard of it, but what can he do, how dare he reward his subordinates privately if the official family does not give an order.

Lu Fei continued: "If the general wants to serve the people, if he wants to be empty by the people after returning to Beijing, if he wants to compete with Shi Baoji in terms of momentum, if he wants the official family to take a high view of you, you can't be a class teacher now." ”

Li Jilong thinks about these things too much, in terms of identity, he is already a very popular minister, and he lacks a meritorious career that will go down in history, and such a class teacher, it is very likely that the Japanese army will be abolished or reorganized, and the best result is to garrison the capital, and there is no chance to go to the front line in this life, and if it is not good, it will be incorporated into the Guards and Pro-Military Division, as a second-rate military force.

Li Jilong, who was a little frustrated for a while, softened his face and muttered, "Lu Fei, what can you do to reverse the current situation?" ”

Lu Fei smiled and said, "Yes, in the name of war, reproduce the heroic style of the Japanese army, win honor for you, general, and let all the soldiers respect the general in every way." ”

Of course, Li Jilong wants to have a war, and the best way to establish authority in the army is to fight, but there is no war to fight at the moment.

"War? How to fight? You don't know the will of the official family, and after the Japanese army receives the order, choose a day to teach. ”

Lu Fei said: "The last general knows, but the official family said that the day was chosen, and did not specify a specific day for the general, and the general could take the opportunity to do something." ”

Li Jilong wondered: "Misinterpreting the will, you are also the first, you are too bold, even if I delay for time, what can I do?" ”

Lu Fei arched his hand and said: "Enter the Liao State, win the battle, and praise the military prestige of the Japanese army." ”

"What?" Li Jilong couldn't believe his ears, and said in a lost voice: "There is no war in Song Liao, how can you start a war?" Privately provoke you to cut off a few heads, and I have a few heads. ”

Lu Fei was not in a hurry, and said slowly: "General, don't worry, listen to the last general's details, general, although we have no intention of marching into Liao, but we are a forbidden army, and it is within our duty to protect the territory and the people. ”

Li Jilong thought about it, but still felt ridiculous, and said inappropriately: "You think too simply, even if the Liao State is on the border, the news is the first to reach Bianliang, how can it be our turn to send troops without authorization, you don't fight these ghost ideas, Dane died on the battlefield as the commander of the three armies, this is the incompetence of our generals, because of the punishment, I can't complain about others, okay, clean up, go back to Beijing." ”

Lu Fei hurriedly said: "No, general, there will be no room for maneuver when we go, we will never be able to raise our heads, and now the rumors in the army are flying all over the sky, and many generals have broken jars and fallen, anyway, they have no shame to see their colleagues in front of the palace, generals, if someone makes trouble on the way back to the army and causes turmoil, general, you can suppress it." ”

Li Jilong slapped the table, "Lu Fei, don't be alarmist, they still dare to rebel?" ”

Lu Fei tilted his head and said: "This general will judge himself, the last general will not dare to say much, the last general is just worried about the general, and it is better to prevent trouble before it happens, if he really wants to make a mess, I am afraid that it is not less guilty than sending troops without authorization." ”

"Report!" Outside the house, the shouts of the soldiers were heard.

"Come in!" Li Jilong shouted: "What's the matter? ”

The person who came arched his hand: "General Bing, I just received a report that more than a dozen brothers of the horse army were eating and drinking and making trouble on the street, and they also used their armor and horses at any time to exchange wine and eat." ”

"Bold!" Li Jilong was furious, slapped the case, and shouted: "Why? What about people? ”

The soldier said: "People are still drunk, I heard that the brothers of the Ma army have complained, the Ma army has not yet entered the battle in the first battle of Sanchuankou, but it has already fallen into a slack military affairs, resulting in the infamy of the death of the commander, they ......"

"That's enough." Li Jilong glanced at Lu Fei and said, "Ignore military discipline and correct the law on the spot!" ”

Lu Fei hurriedly said: "Slow, general, the more this matter kills, the more out of control, the root is still morale, just like that, do you dare to guarantee that this army can return to Bianliang safely?" ”

In fact, these dozen or so horse soldiers were bewitched by Lu Fei, and there were some complaints in the army, but they were not that serious, just sending people with ulterior motives like Lu Fei to fan the flames there.

Li Jilong didn't say a word, and paused for a while before waving his hand: "Lock them up first, and wait for them to wake up." ”

"No!"

Lu Fei said again: "General, when the judgment continues, it will be chaotic, rather than waiting for the future to be out of control, it is better to take advantage of the fact that the army is still in Jinzhou, you set up a general, and see which one is not satisfied." ”

Li Jilong sat down deeply, deep in thought, he didn't fully believe Lu Fei's words, but the result he said was not impossible at all, the most important thing is that he went back in disgrace, and he would be bullied by Shi Baoji for the rest of his life, looking at the current situation, the official family is already preparing for the destruction of Shu, Tian Chongjin has commanded 70,000 troops in Qinfeng, and the other three armies of the palace front division are also stepping up the expansion of the army, and Xiang Xun is in the limelight, and it is really not good, this Japanese army will be reduced to the pro-military division to guard the city.

"Lu Fei!" Li Jilong wanted to speak and stopped.

"General!" Lu Fei looked resolute and arched his hand: "If you make up your mind, the first army of the last general will invite himself to be the vanguard, and the first one to enter the Liao realm and make contributions to the general." ”

Li Jilong bowed his head and was silent, and when he was young, he muttered, "What do you think?" ”

Governor Lu Fei thought that half of it was done, and he was busy at the moment: "General, the last general did nothing when he was waiting for the army in Jinzhou, and the last general has found out that there is a military fort of the Liao army three hundred and seventy miles to the north, called Wuzhou City, the city is not big, but there are 400,000 stone military rations of the Liao State, 300,000 bundles of horse material, and the defenders are no more than 10,000 people, half of which are Han people, we can run long distances, and burn him clean with a fire, according to the last general's guess, the Liao State will hoard so much military grain and horse material at the border, Nine times out of ten, it was to prepare for the southern invasion in the future. ”

Li Jilong was silent again, this matter is too big, there is no order from the Privy Council, and he starts a war without authorization, for the sake of the general taboo, he also knows about the grain in Wuzhou City, not only he knows, but everyone who is a general in the north knows it, but Wu Zhoucheng is too close to Yunzhong Mansion in Xijing of Liao, more than eighty miles, Yunzhong City has nearly 100,000 cavalry of Liao, and the mobility of the Liao cavalry is so strong, even if there are not many defenders, how can the Song army have the courage to fight, so many years ago, the Central Plains Dynasty changed again and again, but no matter how it was changed, The Central Plains has always taken a defensive stance against the Liao State in the north, and it is not that it does not dare to fight, but it really cannot be defeated.

Wu Zhou City is also in the rear of Shuozhou, a border city of Liao State, to fight Wu Zhou City, you must pass through Shuozhou, and the location of Wu Zhou City is equivalent to being in the middle of Yunzhou and Shuozhou.

Li Jilong said slowly: "Your idea is too naïve, there are not many soldiers in Wuzhou City, but there are 100,000 Liao cavalry in Yunzhou, and there are 30,000 or 40,000 Liao troops in Shuozhou, your idea is too risky, go around Shuozhou to fight Wuzhou City, and come back." ”

Lu Fei was full of confidence and said: "General, although we have suffered great losses in the Japanese army, the five thousand horse army has not been injured at all, and we have captured nearly 10,000 horses at Sanchuankou, we can organize a horse army of 10,000 people, bypass Shuozhou, and suddenly appear under the city of Wuzhou, the last general believes that even if this news reaches Yunzhou, I am afraid that even the Liao people themselves will not dare to believe it." ”

Li Jilong was in a dilemma, he wanted to become famous through this matter too much, but he was afraid that the court would blame him, and it was a taboo for him to hesitate.

"General!" Lu Fei hurriedly said: "The hour is not early, the front army of the army has already started, and it will be too late if you don't give an order." ”

**

The residence of Zhang Xiuying, the squire of the military department, is near the Tianbo Gate in the west city, and the five masters and servants circled around the imperial city before arriving here, compared to the south of the city, it is still colder, how to say that it is too far from the main road of the capital, the royal street, to the root of the city wall of the west city.

Although the road is farther away, Dai Xiong is also walking, the martial spirit of the Tang Dynasty is still windy, the Great Song Dynasty is only a few years, the kind of man why not take Wu hook, collect the male wind of Guanshan Fifty Prefectures is still there, with a sedan chair to travel that is the powerless scholar to play, man, that has to gallop on the horse, unfortunately, at this time the horse is rarer than the little lady of Peugeot, the lack of the Song Dynasty is the horse, not to mention that the people are not allowed to be private, even the official house is rare, horse, there is only one kind, that is, the war horse.

After crossing the Tianbo Bridge, you can see the tall eaves of the Zhang family standing out in a crowd of private houses, although there is no Dai Mansion style but it is also quite large-scale, and those who can buy a house in the capital are not ordinary people.

Dai Xiong was concerned about his father and was walking on the Tianbo Bridge in a hurry.

"Young master, slow down, look, they are coming up again" The four family members have been following him, this is his usual prestige guard of honor, in this Kaifeng Mansion of all the sons and brothers, whether it is majestic or not, then it depends on who brings more house slaves, Zhao Dezhao, the little prince of Zhao Guan's family, he can't compare, but every time he can take four house slaves to the street, it can be regarded as more than enough, and when the father comes back from the battle, he has to borrow a team of soldiers from him, so majestic.

Dai Xiong was stopped by one of the servants, and looked along his fingers, only to see that more than ten feet behind them, the mother and daughter who had just paid for a sky-high price were standing there trembling, thinking that they had followed all the way.

How could he bring two unknown women to his future father-in-law, he turned back at the moment, and the closer he got, the more he could smell the mildew on them, and he didn't know how long he hadn't taken a bath.

When the mother and daughter saw the boy and brother coming over, they hugged them even tighter, lowered their heads, and their messy and filthy hair covered half of their faces.

"Why are you coming with you again? You really want me to raise you," Dai Xiong pointed behind them, "Let's go, let's go."

Dai Xiong bought them from Chen's mother, but it was also a moment of compassion.

The mother swallowed her saliva, she was honestly afraid, although her face was dirty, but her tearful eyes were very moving, she bit her lip, and suddenly pressed her daughter to kneel on the ground, and then she knelt down, and said in a trembling voice: "We have nowhere to go, big official, you, since you bought us, you are the great benefactor of my mother and daughter, I know what that woman bought us for, I can't do it, I don't want my daughter to starve to death, you have pity on us, reward us with a mouthful of food, I will repay the officials."

Dai Xiong didn't take the two of them to heart at all, and immediately waved his hand casually, saying: "No need, it's just a whim for me to buy you, don't mess with me, follow up again, be careful that I throw you into this golden water river" A scare, he turned around and was about to leave.

Who knew that the woman was not intimidated, but calmed down, after kowtowing deeply, she sobbed and wiped a handful of tears on her face, this wipe wiped out half of her face, she said softly: "No, the slave family can see that the big official is not this kind of person, you are a good person, your great kindness, the slave family is willing to repay it with a lifetime."

Great people! Although the words are ordinary, but in Dai Xiong's ears, there was a slight wave in his heart, he was used to showing off his might in the capital, what kind of title he had, what kind of title he had, what was the big young man in the capital, Kaifeng Xiao Mengwei, Huahua Tai Sui, Yujie Yiba, etc., I really have never heard anyone say that he is a good person, interesting.

Dai Xiong turned his back to the mother and daughter, snorted, shook his neck and rattled, and said to his four servants in a somewhat self-deprecating tone: "Hehe, this girl said that the young master is a good person, ah, fresh"

The four servants laughed when they heard it, the conscience of heaven and earth, if you want to say that Dai Yanei of the Dai family in Kaifeng City is a good person, don't be funny, then there are no bad people in this world.

One of the servants grinned, "What? Our young master is a good person? He...... Ouch! Before he could say anything, he clutched his ass and jumped up in pain.

Dai Xiong looked at the four servants with a straight face, and shouted: "Laugh, what!" Aren't I a good person, young master? ”

The four of them were stunned for a moment, and then nodded together and said: "Yes, young master, you are a good person, who dares to say that our young master is not a good person, we must have picked up his house."

There may be no difference between good people and bad people in the world, a person has done bad things for a lifetime, and if he has done a good thing, then he is a good person, and in turn he has accumulated virtue and done good deeds for a lifetime, but he has done something that hurts nature and reason, I am afraid that he will not be able to wash away the reputation of this bad person.

Dai Xiong turned back again, his face was not so domineering, on the contrary, he was a little kind, nodded and said to the mother and daughter: "In this Tokyo city, people like you are not 100,000 and almost the same, and when you meet me, it is your creation, okay, young master, I will give you a chance, then, see this Jinshui River, if you dare to walk to the other side of the river from this ice, young master, I will reward you with a mouthful of food, if you don't dare, don't blame me......"

Before Dai Xiong finished speaking, he saw that the woman had quickly stood up and ran under the bridge without looking back.

"Mother, mother, don't go" When her daughter saw that her mother was in danger, she was so anxious that she cried out, very pitiful.

Dai Xiong didn't expect this woman to dare to do this, it was almost noon at this time, the warm sun had already made the ice fragile, he didn't know what to say for a while, the people on the side gathered more and more, and many people were looking at the trembling woman standing by the river with a sympathetic gaze, needless to say, the onlookers must have secretly cursed themselves in their hearts.

The woman stood by the river, stopped, looked at the ice that reflected the sunlight but could see the rushing current, turned her head to look at her daughter and Dai Xiong on the bridge, knelt down again, and shouted: "Great official, if the slave family is drowned, please be kind and reward my daughter with a way to live."

At this time, someone in the crowd of onlookers shouted anxiously: "Girl, don't do stupid things, the ice is too thin, you can't pass"

It was at this moment and a half, Dai Xiong seemed to have become the loser, although no one dared to accuse him face-to-face, but their eyes were really not good, Dai Xiong looked at the trembling woman walking on the ice, and then looked sideways at her daughter standing next to him, the little girl put her feet up, a pair of frozen red hands climbed on the snow on the bridge railing, whimpering and crying, it seems, he really does not have a trace of the joy of playing tricks in his heart, mixed tastes.

Suddenly, there was a burst of exclamation from the crowd of onlookers, it turned out that the woman had walked to the middle of the river, and as she moved, there was a crackling sound of the ice cracking, and the cracks like spider webs spread rapidly, as if the ice could collapse at any time, and the people on the bridge didn't even dare to come out, they all opened their mouths and stretched their necks.

At this moment, the woman on the ice slipped and fell down, the crisp sound of the ice continued one after another, and the crowd screamed again and again, and the woman lay on the ice panting, not daring to move.

At this time, her daughter also ran off the Jinshui Bridge, stepped on the ice, staggered along, and cried: "Mother, come back, Mother, Qiao'er is willing to accompany you to ask for food"

The woman on the ice hurriedly shouted: "Child, go back, don't come"
