readx;
The New Year is over, and I'm finally back, and I wish my friends a happy new year! In the new year, all wishes come true, all the best!
Wu Ji's conditions were not what frightened Li Bingchang and them, what shocked them was Wu Ji's attitude, directly beheading the messenger, that is, not to talk about it, Wu Ji's condition was an ultimatum, and if they didn't accept it, they would wait for destruction. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
No one will doubt Wu Ji's determination. Wu Ji had an unparalleled determination, otherwise, Wu Ji would not have killed the messenger.
Listening to the words of his entourage, it was as if he saw the bloody butcher knife in Wu Ji's hand, once it fell, there would inevitably be many heads rolling off, and the ministers could not help but be afraid.
"This, this ......" Li Bingchang, a person who can speak well, stammered rarely, his face changed color, pale as paper, as if he had been buried in the soil.
Since Li Yuanhao became emperor, the Western Xia has been pressing the Song Dynasty to fight, gaining the upper hand, in front of the Song Dynasty, the Western Xia Emperor is like a fish in water, comfortable and tight, when was he so frightened?
Wu Ji's two conditions, he can't accept any of them. Go to the emperor to claim the title of minister, Li Bingchang can accept it. Although the emperor's name is extremely glorious, it can also be said to be a false name, and if you lose a false name, it is cost-effective to save the Western Xia. The problem is that to go to Bianjing, this is not acceptable in any way.
In order to solve the northwest problem, Song Taizong asked the Li family to move to Bianjing, except for Li Jiqian, they all went. The reason why Li Jiqian fled was that he realized that going to Bianjing was a long trapped shoal, and everything was in vain.
If Li Bingchang went to Bianjing, he would lose everything, which is absolutely unacceptable.
As for the second point, handing over Li Zongbao, Liang Xi, and the Western Xia soldiers who participated in the Battle of Shaanzhou is even more unacceptable. If he accepted it, first, it chilled the hearts of the soldiers, and secondly, he cut off his hands and feet, which was tantamount to letting Wu Ji dispose of it, and he had no power to resist.
No matter how harsh the conditions Wu Ji proposed, as long as the army was in hand, Li Bingchang would have the strength to make a statement, and this would not be accepted under any circumstances.
When the thought turned, Li Bingchang had already made a decision, and saw Li Zongbao and Liang Xizheng looking at him nervously. The two were worried that he would agree to Wu Ji's conditions and hand them over. In the battle of Shaanzhou, Li Zongbao and Liang Xi's hands were stained with blood, and the Song Dynasty was angry about it, and it was inevitable to take them under the knife.
"Erqing, rest assured, I will not do this kind of thing that hurts relatives and enemies are happy!" Li Bingchang has a lot of places to borrow from the two, and he is busy relieving.
"Whew!" Li Zonghe and Liang Xi glanced at each other, and finally let go of their hearts.
Dong Zhao saw it in his eyes and secretly admired that this Li Bingchang was a character, and he didn't give in under Wu Ji's coercion, and Tubo helped them do the right thing.
"If Wu Ji wants to fight, we will fight!" Li Bingchang shouted at the ministers: "Wu Ji's army is far away in Xiazhou, so it scares you like this?" You guys are so embarrassed! ”
"This ......" The ministers were ashamed and lowered their heads.
"Look at you one or two, so bold, are you worthy of being a warrior in Great Xia?" Li Bingchang continued to count, and his voice was very high: "Wu Ji wants to destroy Great Xia, and the warriors of Great Xia will not only eat mutton and drink horses, but also kill people!" I want to let Wu Ji know why the warriors of Great Xia were able to suppress Emperor Song for decades! ”
His voice was high, impassioned, and very uplifting, and the ministers felt a little more confident, and they couldn't help but puff up their chests.
Seeing that his lecture had worked, Li Bingchang was very satisfied, and was about to make another speech, but was interrupted by a cronie who rushed in in a hurry.
I saw that this cronie had a frightened look on his face, his face turned pale, he was trembling when he ran, and he shouted from afar: "Your Majesty, something is wrong!" Big things are wrong! ”
"Bastard thing! Shut up! Say it! The words of this cronie were too shocking, Li Bingchang's face sank, and he reprimanded.
"Your Majesty, Shanyuguan is lost!" This cronie reprimanded Li Bingchang, was shocked, and blurted out a report.
"Shanyuguan lost?" It was Li Bingchang's turn to be surprised: "Shanyu Pass is dangerous, if it is lost, it will be difficult for my army to mobilize." ”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the more than 300 warriors guarding the pass killed more than 100 of the Song army, and the rest were all thrown off the cliff and fell into pulp!" Just when Li Bingchang was shocked, this cronie continued to report.
"What? Thrown down a cliff? Li Bingchang rolled his eyes and looked shocked.
Not only was he shocked, but the ministers of Western Xia, as well as Dong Zhao, were all moved, with a look of panic on their faces.
"Wu Ji is demonstrating to Great Xia! He's demonstrating! "Some ministers turned their brains quickly and took the lead in saying Wu Ji's intentions.
"Your Majesty the Emperor......" Another cronie rushed in in a hurry, and shouted from a distance: "Feiyun Pass is lost." The Song army nailed the warriors guarding the pass to the tree, peeled the skin, cramped, and coiled the intestines around their necks, so that the warriors could not survive or die! ”
These words were like cold water rolling down the oil pot, and it exploded immediately, and the ministers of Western Xia screamed and accused.
"Peeling cramps?"
"Wrap your intestines around your neck? People can't survive, can't they die? ”
"The Song people are too brutal! They profess to be righteous, but they do cruel things! ”
"The Song people are hypocritical, and they can't bear to insult the warriors of Great Xia like this! Can't bear it! ”
The accusations and screams of the ministers rang out, but Li Zongbao and Liang Xi glanced at each other and shook their heads relative to each other. They couldn't be clearer that what the Western Xia army did in Shaanzhou was ten times more brutal than this, and the Song army was retaliating.
Sure enough, I only listened to this cronie and then reported: "Song Jun also left a note, saying that this is revenge for Daxia's bestiality in Shaanzhou!" They said, they said......" Speaking of this, they looked at Li Bingchang and obediently shut up.
"What did they say?" Li Bingchang clenched his fists and shouted.
The cronies couldn't help but be frightened, so they had to report honestly: "Song Jun also said that if the emperor dares to be an enemy of the Great Song Dynasty, he will definitely give him cramps!" ”
"Peeled skin? Twitching tendons? Li Bingchang screamed, his voice was shrill and high-pitched, even worse than the voice of the eunuch, much more difficult to hear.
Isn't this a naked slap in the face? Li Bingchang was so angry that his body trembled, staggered, and he would fall at any time. The ministers didn't dare to step forward to help each other, so they could only watch.
"General Li, General Liang, what did you do in Shaanzhou to provoke Wu Ji to be so angry and make such a hot move?" Dong Zhao looked at Li Zongbao and Liang Xi and inquired.
The cause of the incident was known, and the ministers looked at Li Zongbao and Liang Xi, waiting for their answers.
"Hey!" Li Zongbao and Liang Xi glanced at each other and sighed, Li Zongbao said: "The fact of Shaanzhou is a shame for Great Xia!" What Song Jun did is nothing compared to what happened in Shaanzhou! The cruelty that happened in the five cities of Anding was much more brutal than peeling and cramping, and it was too brutal! ”
"It's not too much to be ten times more brutal!" Liang Xi took over the conversation and said regretfully: "Peeling cramps are common, and Jianyin is not a problem. Knocking bones and extracting marrow, dissecting babies, mutilating infants, and boiling human oil alive...... There are so many and so on. ”
"What? Are you so brutal? Why don't you restrain the three armies? Li Bingchang also felt nervous in his heart when he heard this: "Such a brutal thing is something that no one will do!" ”
"You indulge the three armies and cause such trouble!" The accusations of the ministers rang out.
"No wonder Wu Ji is very angry! Don't talk about Wu Ji, even if I heard it, I was angry! Dong Zhao couldn't help shaking his head, feeling sorry.
"Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers are unwilling to restrain the three armies, it's that they can't restrain it. The ministers had no choice but to order the slaughter of the city! Li Zongbao and Liang Xi pleaded in a whisper.
"You guys, you ......" Li Bingchang pointed and the two of them didn't know what to say.
"Your Majesty, the Song army has captured another dangerous pass! The warriors guarding the pass have a bowel drain! ”
"Your Majesty, the Song army has dismembered more than a hundred defenders!"
"The Emperor's ......"
Cronies keep coming in and reporting bad news. Every time he reported it, the faces of the ministers of Western Xia were ugly. The real revenge of the Song army began, and they could not be feared.
xxxxxxx Xiazhou, Wu Ji's marshal's mansion, Wu Ji is listening to the report of the generals.
Seed Master Dao and Yao Youzhong fought well, and there were constantly dangerous passes to be captured. Wu Ji only acquiesced in their retaliation and did not give an order. However, for the western soldiers of the Planter Dao, the matter of stabilizing the five cities is their biggest pain, and it is not possible to either return a tooth for a tooth or blood for blood.
Every time they conquered a place, they used the brutality of the Western Xia soldiers in the five cities of Anding to the Western Xia soldiers to vent their anger.
"Well done! Well done! ”
Chong Ge, Yao Gu, and Li Xian listened to it in their ears, and they were happy in their hearts, and they were very happy.
"Since the fall of the previous dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty has been weak, and the alien race has long forgotten the majesty of China, so it's okay to do this!" Wu Ji bowed his head slightly, and commented: "Only in this way can the alien race remember the majesty of Huaxia and not be offended!" Whoever offends the majesty of China will bear the wrath of China! ”
"They are still very restrained in Jianzhong, they did not destroy the silver woman, they did not kill the baby, they are worthy of the party!" A word of comment.
Among all the atrocities in Western Xia, the most infuriating ones are the silver women and the killing of babies, these two are the most despicable, and the planters said that they did not do it, and they were indeed very restrained.
"Dashuai, Dashuai, it's not good, it's not good!" Zhou Wei hurriedly came in and shouted from afar.
"Oh! What's wrong? Zhou Wei's courage is extremely great, and it is rare to move his heart when he waits for idle things, he is so frightened, there must be something big happening, Wu Ji raised his eyebrows, stood up, and asked loudly.
"Marshal, Tubo has formed an alliance with Western Xia, so I don't want to join forces!" Zhou Wei couldn't help rubbing his hands, and said angrily: "They are embarrassed!" Once the troops are united, it is a huge threat to the Great Song! ”
Western Xia was not the opponent of the Song Dynasty, and in this battle, the Song army had a great chance of winning. Once the Tibetans joined, the strength of the Western Xia increased greatly, and the Song army would not necessarily fail, but at least it would cause great trouble to the Song army.
"Damn! Damn it! ”
The generals were so angry that they cursed, and the scolding rang out and shook the roof tiles.
"Haha!"
In the midst of the shouting and scolding of the generals, I only heard Wu Ji laughing, with a happy look on his face: "This is a good thing!" What a great good thing you are, how angry are you? ”
"A good thing? Boss, where did you start with that? "All the generals are like eight kings, I don't know why.
