Chapter 460: Battle of Xinzhou 7
Wutai was lost, Feng Yuxiang disappeared The news spread, the people of the national army were panicked, others didn't say it, Sun Lianzhong's first reaction was to send someone to Yangquan Kong Geng to ask for surrender, Kong Geng received Sun Lianzhong's surrender letter and table, and couldn't help laughing and said: "Feng Yuxiang's three surnames are harmful to the master and the slave, and the national army is a disaster to the country and the people, and this kind of army dares to ask Lao Tzu to surrender, which is really ridiculous."

"The general's words are wrong!"
Kong Geng looked back and saw that Xia Douyin spoke out against it, this person has been his old subordinate since the recovery of Taiyuan in Xinhai year, and he is also a good hand at marching and fighting, but this person has an uncertain mentality, he has abandoned the army many times to do business, and has repeatedly abandoned business to join the army, and there is a name for gluttony in the army, but although this person loves money, he takes it in a good way, does not drink the blood of soldiers, does not disturb the people, and if he can't do it, he will go into business, but he can also afford to be a bright and upright man, Kong Geng heard about this person's legendary deeds, he appreciated it very much, and called for a dialogue in person, asked about the art of war, war and the form of the country, but I didn't expect Xia Douyin's answer to be orderly and orderly, and it seemed that he had already made a decision. Kong Geng couldn't help but be amazed, and personally transferred to his side and entrusted him with important tasks, and now he has become Kong Geng's left and right hands. Seeing him raise an objection, Kong Geng couldn't help but ask curiously: "Dou Yin, you have your reasoning, you might as well talk about it." ”
Xia Douyin glanced around, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "General, God has the virtue of a good life, and the earth has the thickness of loads. ”
"Lord Xia has said this, without Feng Yuxiang's national army, it is just a rabble, where is there any capital to confront our army! Don't be alarmist. ”
"The chaotic army is peaceful, but the bandits are difficult to collect!" Xia Douyin said-for-tat: "It is true that the general can easily defeat Sun Lianzhong, but what about after the defeat? There will always be a part of these routs that will be broken into pieces, hiding in the major mountains and forests in the north of Shanxi Province to do evil, if you want to completely exterminate these people, I am afraid that it will take a lot of effort, and it will take a long time, so the cost will be sea. ”
"It's just a group of grass cowards, Lord Xia can't help but exalt these people too much!"
"I don't know if I don't lift these people, I only know that the bandits on Taihang Mountain have not been broken since the era of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors." Xia Douyin coldly pushed over.
"You ......"
"That's it!"
Kong Geng saw that these people were not only going to quarrel but also showing signs of making a move, so he hurriedly stood up and said: "You are all Kong's ministers of the humerus, whether Sun Lianzhong's matter is to kill or appease, you are all well-intentioned, let Kong think about it in a good life." After retiring from the generals, Kong Geng invited Xia Douyin half an hour later, he sat on the Taishi chair, looking at the tea in the bowl in his hand, amber was fragrant, and he seemed to be immersed in it for a while and couldn't extricate himself.
Xia Douyin on the opposite side stood calmly aside, waiting for his inquiry. I don't know how long it took, maybe five minutes or a quarter of an hour, Kong Geng slowly started talking, and praised very happily: "Dou Yin's buckwheat tea tastes very pure." ”
Xia Douyin was stunned when he heard this, when did this Kong Geng start to be so down-to-earth, didn't he always look down on this buckwheat tea? How could he praise it for no reason today, and then suddenly realized, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, and said: "General Daen, the taste of this buckwheat tea will definitely be more mellow next year." ”
"Tell me what you think!"
"Shanxi has been run by Yan Xishan for many years, and it is very famous, from the high-level of the provincial government to the grassroots level of the village, almost all of them are his people, and if the general wants to succeed, he has to start from the army. Where do you start? I thought I was going to start with this Sun Lianzhong. ”
Kong Geng nodded again and again after hearing this, and wanted him to continue, but who knew that he stopped abruptly, feeling a little lost in his heart and thinking that he needed to continue urgently, but he said unhappily: "Douyin, what do you mean by this?" I have been friends with Yan Xishan for more than ten years, and the restoration of Shanxi was made possible by our brothers. ”
Xia Douyin smiled and said: "My subordinates don't know that the general and the marshal have a deep brotherhood, and they are not disrespectful, and they still hope that the adults Haihan, as for what they said just now, please forget about it." ”
Seeing him talking like this, Kong Geng smiled, retreated, leaving only him and Xia Douyin, and said, "Sometimes superficial articles still have to be done." My situation still needs to be more considerate of my brother. ”
Xia Douyin said: "When it comes to the five heroes of Shanxi's recovery in Xinhai year, who doesn't give a thumbs up and say yes, but where are the five heroes now?" Except for him, Yan Xishan was afraid that no one would know, Yang Peilin was betrayed and died on the battlefield, Qiu Liang was imprisoned and tortured to death. Wen Shouquan was controlled by others and had no choice but to go into the wilderness, Yao Yiwei suffered the shame of being defeated and fled first, and he was not allowed to step into Shanxi for life, but the general was so kind-hearted, and his prudent words and deeds were also designed by him and Zhao Daiwen to reduce the military power, and it was not allowed to be reused, which was regarded as saving his life, did the general think that Yan Xishan would stop there? The Wutai Army was ordered to evacuate, and the fundamental interests of many Taiyuan military and political officials were moved, but I am afraid that Yan Xishan will take out the general to set an example and correct the military law! ”
Kong Geng was taken aback, his face changed suddenly, and he said excitedly: "I have an order written by Yan Xishan himself!" ”
"Fake!"
Xia Douyin said categorically.
"Dou Yin, you may not know, when I have been in contact with Yan Xishan for a long time, I still recognize his handwriting! Not only do I know it, but everyone else knows it! ”
Xia Douyin said: "Does the general still remember the holy hand scholar in the female Water Margin? Cai Jing and his people don't say much, his writing and poetry are the best generation, known as Cai Ti, so he was promoted to prime minister by Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty several times, such calligraphy everyone, also learned vividly, not to mention that Yan Xishan? At that time, as long as he doesn't admit it, the general will be full of mouths, and how can he say it clearly? ”
Kong Geng was in a cold sweat, and he couldn't help but take a step forward, grabbed Xia Douyin's arm and said: "Douyin, you have seen it so thoroughly, there must be a solution, and I hope to save my brother from the perspective of brotherhood in the past!" ”
"The general doesn't have to worry, I have already played to the provincial government in the name of the general, and asked Yan Xishan to thoroughly investigate the responsibility of Shang Zhen in the Wutai rout. Humble and reckless hope that the general will atone for his sins! ”
Saying that, Xia Douyin bowed his hand and saluted Kong Geng.
Kong Geng was overjoyed and said: "Brother, you are really interesting! My brother really didn't see the wrong person! Hehe. ”
"Don't be too happy, General. Pushing Shang Zhen to the front, he can only temporarily alleviate Yan Xishan's persecution of my brothers, and after a long time, he will definitely pick a bone in the egg and push this black pot on the general's head, thinking that only when the general is gone, the military and politics of Shanxi can really fall into his hands! ”
Kong Geng walked around with his hands behind his back before looking back at Xia Douyin and said, "Douyin, how can you get out of the current dangerous situation?" ”
Xia Douyin said: "Incorporate Sun Lianzhong and expand the strength of the general, if Yan Xishan is too pressing, the general can learn from Feng Yuxiang to take Taiyuan and be the overseer himself, this is the next policy!" ”
Kong Geng said: "What Feng Yuxiang can't do, Lao Tzu may not be able to do it, but if it's not here today, the heroes of the Quartet are eyeing each other, even if we can beat Yan Xishan, how can we deal with Sun Chuanfang and Chang Zhenbang?" It's too risky, it's not appropriate! ”
