Henan Mansion, Sima Guang Mansion. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Sima Guang was compiling the "Zizhi Tongjian" in the house, holding the pen in his hand, sometimes frowning, sometimes writing hard, and writing the dragon and snake.

"Squeak!"

The door opened, Sima Kang walked in quickly, and said to Sima Guang: "Dad, Lu Xianggong is here." ”

"Lu Xianggong?" Sima Guang raised his eyebrows, put down his pen, and rushed out as if flying. When Lu Gongzhu arrives, there must be something big to discuss with him, which is exactly what the stinging Sima Guang needs most, how can he not be in a hurry when he hears this.

"Dad, slow down, be careful." Sima Kang was so anxious that he kept reminding.

Sima Guang ignored it, just rushed out, and as soon as he left the mansion, he saw Lu Gongzhu getting down from the carriage. Sima Guang took three steps and made two steps, greeted him, and laughed: "Lu Xianggong, you can be regarded as here." ”

"Junshi, go in and say!" Lu Gongzhu didn't say polite words at all, and his brows were furrowed.

"Hmm!" Sima Guang saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat, it must be no good. He was looking forward to a lot of good things, so he immediately stopped talking, and pulled Lu Gongzhi into the mansion and went to the lobby.

"Junshi, go to your study, let's have a good talk." Lu Gong hurriedly stopped it.

Sima Guang knew that there must be something big, so he led Lu Gongshu to his study, and Lu Gongzhu was not even interested in commenting on "Zizhi Tongjian", and Sima Guang felt even more bad in his eyes.

Lu Gongshu admired Sima Guang very much, and agreed with him in compiling the "Zizhi Tongjian", every time he came, he had to appreciate it, like today, he didn't look at it, or it was the first time: "Lu Xianggong, why did you come to Henan Mansion?" ”

"Coming by order!" Lu Gong's writing is even more amazing.

"Ordered?" Although Sima Guang was a smart person, he would never have imagined that Lu Gong would come here to be the meaning of Song Shenzong, his heart was beating wildly, and he wanted to ask if he would take him back to the court to serve as prime minister, but for the sake of stability, he forcibly endured it and did not ask.

"There are two things here, one is to tell you good news." Lu Gong's brows tightened even tighter: "This time, the 80,000 troops of the Great Song Dynasty went deep into the Liao Realm to plunder, and they gained a lot of money. More than 73,000 Liao troops were killed, and the grain, grass, gold and silver captured were innumerable. ”

"Impossible! No way! It must be Wang Shao who exaggerated his military exploits to invite the favor of the king. Sima Guang would not believe that this was true.

It is a well-known fact that the Song army had low combat strength and could not defeat the Liao army. With 80,000 Song troops, go deep into the Liao border to plunder, if you are not defeated, you will burn high incense, and it is a great blessing to have a small capture, and Sima Guang never dreamed of killing more than 73,000 Liao troops.

He would rather believe that the sun came out of the west than that it was true.

"Junshi, I have to believe it!" Lu Gongzhu took out an object from his arms and handed it to Sima Guang: "Junshi, take a look at this first!" ”

Sima Guang took it, unfolded it and took a look, only to see that it was written a list of the seizures this time, a pen, a pile of piles all on it, very detailed. The more Sima Guang looked, the more surprised his face became, and in the end, his face was in disbelief, his mouth opened wide, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

"This is what I have transcribed by order, it is very detailed, and I can't make it up if I want to, so I dare not believe it." Lu Gongzhu stroked his forehead and said very annoyedly: "The official family is demonstrating to those of us who oppose the new law!" Let us know! ”

"Hey!" Sima Guang sighed, although he didn't want to believe it a hundred times, but in the face of iron-clad facts, he had to believe it if he didn't believe it. The better the north fought, the less hope the opposition had, and Sima Guang was very depressed.

"The second thing is about the oath monument." Lu Gongshu told the scene in front of the oath monument.

Sima Guang's hands couldn't help trembling, his biggest reliance was that Song Shenzong would stick to Song Taizu's words and not kill those who spoke things. Now, Song Shenzong has made up his mind, whoever stands in his way again will die, his biggest reliance is gone, and he can't be afraid.

"Junshi, did you already know about the oath monument?" Lu Gong stared at Sima Guang for a moment, his eyes not instantaneous.

"I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it." Sima Guang sighed: "The official family has made up its mind, and if there is a good fight ahead, our story will not be good." ”

"Yes! What should we do? Lu Gongzhu looked at Sima Guang and said, "The official family sent me to Henan Mansion this time to warn us. Next time, the official family will not be a warning, but will directly attack. ”

Sima Guang did not answer immediately, but his eyebrows were locked, and he kept pacing, and groaned.

For a while, the room was quiet, only the footsteps of Sima Guang. His face was uncertain, one moment blue, the other white.

"Don't be discouraged, we still have a chance." Sima Guang stopped abruptly and said, "Although this battle was fought very well, more than 73,000 were killed. However, it also stabbed the heavens out, Yelu Hongji is not a person who is willing to suffer, he will definitely raise a large army and fight a big war with the Great Song Dynasty. The first time, the Great Song Dynasty caught the Liao State by surprise, and the second time was a head-to-head duel, and the Great Song Dynasty may not be able to gain the upper hand. ”

"Yes!" Lu Gong couldn't help nodding and said: "Yelu Hongji will definitely be angry this time, the army is exhausted, this fight will inevitably be turbulent in the world, and the soldiers will be in trouble, and the Great Song Dynasty may not be able to win!" ”

"Don't talk about winning, if you don't lose miserably, you will be lucky!" Sima Guang's brows widened and said: "Besides, Western Xia and Liao have always been in collusion, and they will inevitably send troops in Shaanzhou, and the Great Song Dynasty will face the enemy on both sides, so the chances of victory will be even smaller." Once Da Song loses, our chance will come. ”

"Reasonable! Reasonable! Lu Gong couldn't help nodding, agreeing with this analysis.

"Moreover, the one in the palace has not spoken, not because she ignored it, but because the time was not ripe." Sima Guang showed a smile on his face and said: "If there is a big defeat this time, she will definitely come forward, and at that time, Wang Anshi, Wang Shao, Wu Ji and others will all become people who bring disaster to the country and the people, and they will definitely be punished." If the family is ruined, it is a great mercy to be able to save the life of the family. ”

For the one in the palace, Lu Gongzhu was deeply jealous, and his eyebrows were raised again and again, very frightened.

"If you go further...... Sima Guang's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and said: "For now, let's just say one word, wait!" Wait for the opportunity! ”

xxxxxx Xiongzhou, Wang Shao's handsome mansion, the generals are standing, Wang Shao stands at the front, holding the holy decree, looking at the generals and saying: "You see, this is the will of the official family." I'm reading it now, and you're listening! If you miss it, you're out of luck. ”

"Huh!" His words were quite teasing, and the generals burst into a burst of laughter.

Wang Shao unfolded the holy decree and read it out. At the beginning, it was a long period of praise, praising the generals for their loyalty to national affairs, daring to fight, and almost finishing the generals.

Then, there's the reward. This captivity, on the whole, was very good, and it was well fought. However, there are a few happy and a few sad. Of course, those who rejoice are those generals and officers who can fight and dare to fight, and they have fought with great success and achievements.

The worries are those generals and officers who can't fight, they have lost a lot of manpower, and in the end there is still not much improvement, and it is difficult for them to keep their positions.

This plunder, firstly, let the Song army undergo the test of actual combat, and secondly, let the generals and officers master this tactic. Generally speaking, after experiencing the difficulties in the early stage, most of the generals and officers played well. For these people, they were dealt with according to the principle of offsetting merit and demerit, and most of them were not promoted, but just stayed in their original positions.

Although they have not been promoted, as long as they master this new tactic, it is only a matter of time before they are promoted.

For those generals and officers who have never improved, they have been removed from their posts and questioned for their crimes, and five generals have been removed, and there are even more officers, no less than 100 people.

These people were withdrawn, and naturally the generals who fought very well were brought up. Lin Hong played well, and was promoted to the commander of a place, blocking one side alone. Huangfu Song and Qi Dabao were also promoted to the commanders of the capital, the deputy commanders of the Guixin Army were succeeded by Li Mingchu, and the Marquis of Duyu was succeeded by Shang Yuan.

Li Mingchu listened to the holy decree, his face was stunned, he couldn't believe that he had been promoted. Think about it when Wu Ji took over the Guixin Army, he was so poor that he had no pants to wear, and even having children was a problem. Now, he has been promoted to deputy commander and has become Wu Ji's assistant, he is like a dream.

"After the decree is read, those who have been promoted will continue to work harder to fight better! If you are not promoted, you don't have to be discouraged, as long as you can fight, there is a chance! Wang Shao encouraged.

"The official family is really true, we have won such a big battle, and the official family has not sent a messenger." This holy decree was sent by the court, and no messenger was sent, which was really beyond everyone's expectations, and I couldn't help but complain.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Wang Shao raised his eyebrows and reprimanded: "The official family does this, and it has its own official reason!" You all go down and wait, Brother Wu and I have something to say. ”

"Oh, why didn't Commander Wu Du be promoted?" Only then did the generals discover the abnormality, and the holy decree did not mention Wu Ji. Wu Ji is the initiator of this victory, and in the imagination of the generals, Wu Ji should be promoted to a special promotion. What made them strange was that Song Shenzong didn't even mention it.

"If you don't mention it, won't you be promoted? From today on, the Wu brothers will cooperate with me in handling the military affairs in the north, which is the holy decree of the official family. Wang Shao waved his hand, and the generals bowed and retired.

Wang Shao stepped forward, closed the door, pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a while, but there was no movement, then he came back and said to Wu Ji: "Brother Wu, the situation is very bad. ”

His words are amazing, obviously he won a big battle, why is it not good? Wu Ji was confused and asked puzzledly, "Why do you say this?" ”

"Just look at this decree." Wang Shao took out a holy decree from his bosom and handed it to Wu Ji, to the effect that Wu Ji should assist Wang Shao in handling military affairs. Then he asked Wang Shao and Wu Ji how many western soldiers they wanted to transfer, and there was nothing else.

"This ......" Wu Ji couldn't see why.

"Brother Wu, you haven't been in Shaanzhou, and you don't know much about the situation in Western Xia. Besides, you haven't been to Bianjing yet, and you don't know much about the situation between the DPRK and China. Wang Shao sat down with a solemn expression: "Although we won this time, it also gave the new army of the Great Song Dynasty a direction, but it also stabbed the sky out." One is not good, it will turn the sky upside down. Maybe even the official family can't be saved! ”

Even Song Shenzong can't keep it, this is an earth-shattering word!
