Five miles at the foot of Bangyuandong Mountain is an endless camp, Tong Guanshuai's tent is in the middle, and it is protected by his 20,000 pro-troops in front of and left, in case the remnants of Fang La break through the front blockade and attack Tong Guan.

When Tong Guan led the troops to the battle, Shuai Tent had never been so close to the front line, but this time in order to urge the Western Army to capture Fang La, he also had to take some risks.

Tong Guanzheng and Dong Yun discussed which imperial family to choose as the emperor, although the Tokyo imperial family was wiped out, but the Song Dynasty royal family has already bred many people for more than a hundred years.

After several generations of inheritance, many side branch royal families squandered their ancestral property and were no longer able to support the luxurious life in Tokyo, so the descendants of Zhao Kuangyin, the ancestor of the Song Dynasty, and their fourth brother, Zhao Guangmei, the king of Wei, moved out of Tokyo one after another, and most of the people arrested in Tokyo were the direct descendants of Zhao Guangyi of Song Taizong.

Therefore, Tong Guan still has many choices if he wants to find a royal family to come out.

While the two were discussing, a personal soldier ran in and said, "Report, the western arms of Soshan have risen." ”

Tong Guan heard this, and said in amazement: "Why is it hot? ”

"It is said that Fang La has been caught, and they are scrambling."

Tong Guan grabbed Fang La when he heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and he said in a deep voice: "Pass my general order, and the generals of Huohe will come to the army and escort Fang La." ”

"Yes"

When the pro-soldiers went out, Tong Guan couldn't help but smile at Dong Yun: "After catching Fang La, we can use the Western Army to exterminate the remnants of the rebels in Taizhou and Yuezhou." ”

Dong Yun shook his head and said: "Now that the Liangshan bandits have captured Tokyo, I'm afraid it has spread, as long as the army leaves Bangyuandong, the Western Army will definitely learn the news." At that time, they will inevitably suspect that the cardinal has concealed the news, and the Western Army is now red-eyed, and they are afraid that something will happen. In my opinion, it is better to tell them in a moment that if there are those who are willing to continue to follow the prime minister, the prime minister can be allowed to be a high-ranking official, and if they are unwilling, it will not have much impact on the overall situation of the prime minister. ”

In this battle, although the Western Army beheaded more than one million, the stubborn resistance of Manichaeism also caused great losses to the Western Army, and the 200,000 soldiers and horses when they went down to the south of the Yangtze River were only more than 100,000 at this time.

In addition, after entering Muzhou, the western army of all walks of life killed people when they saw them, and many people were red-eyed, that is, the army drew their swords against each other without saying a word.

When Dong Yun said this, Tong Guan was also a little scared, and nodded: "What you said is reasonable, but their families are all in the northwest, so I'm afraid they won't stay in Jiangnan." ”

Dong Yun said: "When Xixia learns that my Central Plains is in turmoil, they will inevitably take the opportunity to commit crimes, and they are worried about their small family, so I am afraid they will all go back." However, the northwest is barren, and if they want to raise many soldiers and horses, they must rely on Jiangnan. The prime minister can control them in this way, and when the prime minister integrates the state capitals in the south of the Yangtze River, the prime minister will send troops from the south of the Yangtze River, and the western army will attack from the northwest, and the Liangshan bandits will be attacked on both sides, and Tokyo can be recaptured. ”

Tong Guan was not as optimistic as Dong Yun, and frowned: "There are more than 100,000 anti-thieves in Taizhou and Yuezhou, as soon as the Western Army leaves, how can we exterminate them?" One is not good, but it will be made big by these anti-thieves, and I am afraid that Jiangnan will not be at peace at that time. ”

Dong Yun said: "Most of the anti-thieves have been annihilated in Muzhou, and the remaining anti-thieves have not succeeded in attacking Taizhou and Yuezhou, so it can be seen that they are not elites, most of them are some people who have been driven away." After the prime minister went down to the south of the Yangtze River, Bahua Shigang has won some popular support. It was only because he was worried that Zhu Mian would slander him in Tokyo that he did not dare to kill Zhu Mian's henchmen. Now that the cardinal minister has no scruples, he can completely behead a group of Zhu Mian's henchmen, and the people of Jiangnan have suffered from Huashigang for many years, and this move will inevitably make the people support the cardinal minister and no longer be thieves. beheaded Fang La and others again to deter the thieves. The Prime Minister can order the thieves to be exempted from their sins, and perhaps most of the more than 100,000 thieves can be dispersed without a single soldier. There are some stubborn people left, and then mobilize soldiers and horses from the states south of the Yangtze River to exterminate them. ”

Tong Guan took the case and said with a smile: "Mr. is really talented, more than 100,000 anti-thieves will disappear between talking and laughing, and when the new dynasty is established, this official will definitely ensure that you are a member of the court." ”

When Dong Yun heard this, he hurriedly got up and thanked Tong Guan.

After half an hour, I saw more than a dozen generals of the Western Army scolding and scolding, and most of them were covered with colors.

"Hmph"

Everyone heard Tong Guan snort coldly, and then they quieted down.

Tong Guan said in a deep voice: "Why are you angry? ”

Xin Xingzong rushed and said: "Today, we were ordered to search the mountain and arrest Fang La, and the last general searched in the direction demarcated by the previous prime minister, and caught Fang La, and I didn't want them all to come and lead troops to rob him." ”

Wang Yuan hurriedly said: "Fart, Fang La was obviously caught by Han Shizhong under my command, you snatched it from him, and the wicked person sued first." ”

Xin Xingzong saw that Wang Yuan's words were not disrespectful, and he was not to be outdone, and scolded: "Straight lady thief, that cave is obviously within the scope of our search, why did your little colonel come to our side to arrest people." ”

Wang Yuan said: "Fart, whoever catches it first is whoever, and what is the range, whose is the top of the mountain." ”

The rest of the generals were all close friends of the two, and when they saw the two fighting, they led their troops up to help.

As soon as the two started scolding, they immediately split into two groups and scolded.

Tong Guan slapped on the handsome case and shouted: "Presumptuous, who dares to speak obscenities at the mouth of the big tent, military law will serve." ”

The generals saw that Tong Guan was angry, and then stopped.

Tong Guan asked, "In whose hands is Fang La now?" ”

Xin Xingzong said: "The thirty-nine people of Fang La have all been taken down by the last general. ”

Tong Guan nodded and said, "Okay, you bring Fang La and the others to the Chinese army and hand them over to my pro-army to take care of." ”

Wang Yuan heard that Tong Guan had the intention of putting military merit on Xin Xingzong's head, and hurriedly said: "The cardinal is clear, Fang La and the others were really caught by the last general. ”

Xin Xingzong said: "There are more than 200 people under your command Han Shizhong, Fang La and the others have escaped from their hands, and I led people to catch them again, how can you say that you caught them?" ”

Wang Yuan glared at Xin Xingzong and said, "If you hadn't led people to rob them, how could they have escaped." ”

Tong Guan saw that the two were about to quarrel again, so he couldn't help but snort again.

Xin Xingzong heard that Tong Guan was dissatisfied, and the surname Suo ignored Wang Yuan, and said with his fists clenched: "Wait a minute, and let people escort Fang La and others to the end." ”

When Wang Yuan led people up the mountain, Han Shizhong's command had already been killed by Xin Xingzong, and only Han Shizhong was left to support him, and Fang La and others also fell into the hands of Xin Xingzong.

Naturally, he was unwilling to kill and injure those many people in vain, and hugged his fists and said: "Please treat Xin Xingzong's crime of robbing and killing and injuring his comrades." ”

When Xin Xingzong heard this, he also hugged his fists and said: "The last general also asked the cardinal minister to rule Wang Yuan's army to rob and kill and injure his comrades." ”

Tong Guan frowned and said: "It's not easy to tell this matter, so let's catch Fang La together." ”

Xin Xingzong naturally knew that once the military merits were assigned to two people, it would be impossible for him to be promoted to the third level, so he hurriedly said: "Fang La was captured by the last general, how can he be divided with him." ”

Wang Yuan originally wanted to agree, after all, Xin Xingzong was Tong Guan's confidant, if Tong Guan was biased towards Xin Xingzong, he could only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly, but when he saw Xin Xingzong being so arrogant, he also said: "The last general also disagrees." ”
