Chapter 372: The suburbs welcome the king's division

The winter in the north is a bit cold, and the suburbs of Jingshi City are no exception, especially the snow falling in the sky like torn cotton wool, which adds a bit of coolness to the bleak winter days on the outskirts of Jingshi City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

In this ghost weather, he went out of the city to greet the courtiers who had returned from the expedition. Song Yuren is estimated to be the only one ever.

The triumphant army had not yet reached the outside of the city, and many of the officials who accompanied Song Yuren out of the city to greet him were already a little impatient. Mainly because they can't stand this kind of ghost weather. This ghost God, the thief is cold, the thief is cold, and the cold wind blows on the face, as uncomfortable as a knife cut on the face.

Everyone wraps themselves tightly and exposes their body parts to as little as possible.

Despite this, Song Yuren's enthusiasm is indeed undiminished, and Song Yuren today wore a dress that was only worn at sacrifices and major ceremonies to welcome the triumphant return of King Qin's army in the cold wind on the outskirts of Jingshi City. The back is covered with a bright yellow coat to protect against the cold.

The cold winter days did not dampen Song Yuren's enthusiasm. Song Yuren's interest is very high, and at the same time, Song Yuren's mood is also very good today.

The military operations of the Liao army did not cause fatal damage along the canal. Only six or seven of the cities along the canal were destroyed by the Liao army. These cities are some of the minor cities along the canal. None of the cities with the largest amount of hoarding rice were captured by the Liao army, that is to say, at least this year, there will be no food shortage in Jingshi City, and these cities can provide Jingshi City with the grain and grass that Jingshi City needs.

Jingshi Castle can be regarded as stabilizing after the military disaster. Of course, the better news is that the Liao army has been out of the customs one after another. Not only did the Liao army of Beizhili 1st Road get out of the customs, but the Liao army of Shanxi 1st Road also went out of the customs not long after the Liao army of Beizhili 1st Road came out.

The external troubles of the Great Zhao Empire have come to an end for the time being, and the Great Zhao Empire has survived this external trouble.

"Where is it, why hasn't there been a response from the messenger flyer sent out?" Song Yuren looked very anxious, according to the normal marching speed, Peng Chaodong and his army had already arrived on the outskirts of Jingshi City.

Song Yuren looked at the sun, and the sun was already hanging high. This time, the people he had to wait for were not only Peng Chaodong, but also Shan Futian, and Lu Jiancheng, who he had almost no impression of. This battle gained a capable minister, which made Song Yuren feel very excited, and it was rare to be able to be a minister, which was the biggest feeling that Song Yuren had felt for so many years.

The current Da Zhao needs a capable minister, how can such a capable minister appear out of thin air, otherwise Song Yuren is happy. To be honest, after receiving the report of the victory in Texas, Song Yuren had the idea of doubting this victory.

The strength of a state capital, relying on the courage of its own villages within a state capital, can repel 20,000 invading enemies, not to mention. It also annihilated more than half of the Liao army. It's hard to believe. If it was placed in the past, Song Yuren might have believed it, but now, Song Yuren is hard to believe no matter what.

After fighting with the Liao army, Song Yuren really understood the power of the Liao army. Even the forbidden army, which Song Yuren had always been proud of, was defeated by Manshu. The cavalry of the forbidden army did not even get a bargain when they went out of the city to pursue the retreating Manshuliao army, but returned in embarrassment.

The most important point is that Lu Jiancheng made Song Yuren change his view of Xiang Yong, and Song Woo Ren began to re-examine Xiang Yong's military force.

Previously, Song Yuren had always thought that Xiang Yong was just an insignificant local military force, and Xiang Yong's biggest role was only to maintain local law and order. Other than that, there is no other use for Xiang Yong.

After all, it is a self-defense force organized by the people, and the center of the imperial court did not be optimistic about Xiang Yong at the beginning of its establishment. I didn't expect Xiang Yong to play much of a role. It mainly relied on the town army, which was regarded as a "regular army" by the imperial court.

The performance of the so-called "regular army" is now worrying. Forming a village warrior may be a way out.

"Heavy snow for several days, heavy snow on the roads, difficult for the army, hundreds of thousands of people marching, plus Governor Peng has to organize all kinds of soldiers and horses to return to Beijing in an orderly manner, the marching speed is understandable."

Zhao Ze is still a good man as always. In fact, what Zhao Ze said was not wrong. The march of hundreds of thousands of people is not tourism. It is also quite difficult to bring out hundreds of thousands of troops and bring back hundreds of thousands of troops. It's hard to do this without the organizational skills of contact.

Looking at the civil and military affairs of the whole dynasty, there have been ministers and generals who have led hundreds of thousands of troops to the battle, and so far only Peng Chaodong has the experience of leading hundreds of thousands of troops.

"Your Majesty! The army has arrived! ”

Just when Song Yuren was talking about why Peng Chaodong hadn't come yet, on the snow field in the distance, a few flying horses appeared, like a few black spots. As the black dots grew larger and larger in people's field of vision, the sound of the mansion became clearer and clearer in people's ears.

"It's coming, it's coming, it's finally here." Song Yuren smiled, Song Yuren smiled very happily, he looked at this army through the autumn water, now that this army has arrived, how can he not be happy?

The soldiers and civilians in Jingshi City are still as enthusiastic as ever, congratulating them when they bid farewell to Peng Chaodong on the expedition, what kind of enthusiasm they sent off when they went out, and when they returned, the enthusiastic soldiers and civilians of Jingshi City welcomed them back with the same enthusiasm.

Song Yuren and most of the ministers present thought that this time Peng Chaodong's expedition and the Manshu Liao army would start a protracted war in the entire north. I didn't expect the war to be resolved so quickly. This was somewhat surprising, and it was surprising that the war ended so early.

"Ahead is Jingshi City." Peng Yuqian looked at the vague and majestic outline of Jingshi City not far away.

Jingshi Castle deserves to be the most majestic city of this era, and the outline of Jingshi Castle can be seen from a distance.

"News came from the flying horse that came out of Jingshi City, and the emperor greeted the governor outside the capital city, and the emperor still trusts the governor." Peng Yuqian said beside Peng Chaodong.

Peng Chaodong is a little depressed these days, and instead of the joy after the victory, he shows a little worry. Peng Yuqian has been by Peng Chaodong's side for so long, and he knows what the root cause of Peng Chaodong's depression and unhappiness is these days.

The root cause of Peng Chaodong's depression and unhappiness is, in the final analysis, because Song Yuren gradually lost the unconditional trust in him in the past. The Liao army's siege of Jingshi City left some shadow on Song Yuren, and his trust in Peng Chaodong began to waver. This is also one of the gains of the Liao army this time.

"The emperor believes that he does not trust the governor, and the governor has the bottom in his heart." Peng Chaodong smiled bitterly and said, "The front is Jingshi City, and all the soldiers are ordered to stop, rectify the team, rectify the army, and in front of the people of Jingshi City, we can't lose face."
