When he was gasping, he only heard the sound of cannons, the sound of war drums, and the men and horses of Shuibo Liangshan came to kill, at this time, the little fire dragon Zhu Biao and Zhang Zong of Jeju Mansion also rushed over to join Tong Guan. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The former flying dragon general Yumei waved the big knife to open the way in front, Tong Guan was in the middle, Zhu Biao and Zhang Zongdian were behind, and the three of them protected the generalissimo Tong Guan of Pingkou, and rushed forward with their lives all the way, and finally broke out of the encirclement after killing the ambush of the people and horses of Liangshan in the five roads of Shuibo in a row.

Tong Guan fought out of the encirclement, and met the Jeju prefect Zhang Shuye and the second son of the Zhang family, Zhang Xian, who led 10,000 soldiers and horses to meet and enter the Jeju Mansion.

Tong Guan put these remnants of the defeated army in order to rectify them a little, and led the team to the direction of Bianliang in Tokyo.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to Bianliang in Tokyo, Tong Guan sighed all day long, and the accompanying Feilong General said beautifully: "Marshal, what's the matter?" ”

Tong Guan sighed and said: "Alas, general, you said that when the marshal went out on the expedition, he swore in front of that long live, and he was bound to sweep away those thieves in Shuibo Liangshan, but he wanted to return in defeat, what kind of face did this give me to see the saint, and how to raise my head in front of the civil and military generals of the Manchu Dynasty." ”

The Flying Dragon General Yumei persuaded: "Marshal, water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and that person dares to guarantee that every time he goes out, he will return triumphantly. ”

Tong Guan said: "Although the truth is such a truth, but Banzai who Ben Shuai saw really doesn't know how to say it's good." ”

Yu Mei said: "Marshal, when you go back to Beijing, why don't you go and visit Captain Gao first, and ask him to help you come up with an idea!" ”

Tong Guan nodded and said, "Okay, that's the only way." ”

Looking at the Wanshou Gate that had arrived at Bianliang City, Tokyo, Tong Guan asked the leaders of the many army leaders to lead the military horses of each subordinate to return to the camp to rest, and only led the remnants of the 10,000 imperial military horses into the city with Yumei.

After returning to his Privy Council, Tong Guan took off his armor, changed into a set of clothes for daily access, and went straight to Captain Gao's mansion.

Gao Yu heard the report of the soldier guarding the door, saying that it was Master Tong Guan who asked to see him, and he knew in his heart that Tong Guan must have lost the battle, otherwise there would have been a good news from the fast horse of the post station, so he hurriedly went out of the door to greet him and said: "Lord Privy has worked hard all the way. ”

Tong Guan cried and laughed and said: "Let Lord Taiwei see and laugh, Tong Guan really feels that he has no face to see adults." ”

Gao Yu asked knowingly, "Lord Privy Secretary, why did you say this?" ”

Tong Guan said with a face full of shame: "Captain, Tong is a big defeat. ”

Gao Yu said in surprise: "What, Lord Cardinal, could it be that the 100,000 army led by you was defeated by Song Jiang of Liangshan in Shuibo. ”

Tong Guan cried and said with a sad face: "Tai Lieutenant, Tong thought that Shuibo Liangshan was just a group of rabble grass robbers, then I thought, they were scheming, first the two armies confronted each other, and our army confronted, and then unexpectedly burned the grain and grass of our army, Tong was afraid that there would be no grain and grass The army was disheartened, and wanted to have a quick battle, and poured the strength of 100,000 troops to flatten the water and Liangshan in one fell swoop, and the Song Jiang gang of thieves who knew that they were ambushed on all sides, almost wiped out the whole army, and Tong almost died. As he spoke, he squeezed out a few tears.

Gao Yu hurriedly comforted Tong Guan and said, "Lord Privy Secretary, don't be sad, it's important to take care of yourself." ”

Tong Guan took out a handkerchief and wiped his tears and said: "I didn't expect Tong to return in a fiasco, what kind of face does this give me to see Long live, and how can I explain to the saint?" ”

Gao Yu said: "The cardinal secretary doesn't have to worry, this matter is only hidden from the Son of Heaven today, who dares to play nonsense!" ”

Tong Guan said worriedly: "Long live in the deep palace, it's good to hide it, but I'm afraid that Taishi Cai's level will be difficult to pass." ”

Gao Yu said: "Lord Cardinal, Gao Yu has always been good friends with the Grand Master, I will lead you to meet Taishi Cai, let's all discuss it together, how to talk about this defeated army." ”

Tong Guan and Gao Yu went out and got on the horse, and went straight to Cai Jing's Taishi Mansion.

The person guarding the door hurriedly went in and told Cai Jingdao: "Taishi, there are two adults outside the door, Tong Guan and Taiwei Gao Yu, who ask to see you. ”

Cai Jing received a report that Tong Guan had returned to Beijing this morning, and he expected that Tong Guan must have broken his wings and returned, and when he heard that Gao Yu had come with him, he guessed that he must have suffered heavy casualties. asked people to invite Tong Guan and Gao Yu into the study.

As soon as Tong Guan entered the door, he knelt down in front of Cai Jing, who was sitting in the Taishi's chair, and said with tears in his eyes: "Please also ask the Taishi to save me!" ”

Cai Jing said: "Secretary Tong, what are you doing here, you have something to say." ”

Tong Guan knelt there and told Cai Jing about his defeat in Liangshan, and carefully told Cai Jing: "Please also ask the Taishi Elder to cover up for him in front of Banzai, so as not to blame Banzai."

Cai Jing nodded and said, "Don't worry, let me ask you, are the thieves in Shuibo Liangshan really so difficult to deal with?" ”

Tong Guan hadn't spoken yet, Gao Yu said: "Those thieves live deep in the water, and they can't be conquered unless they are ships. ”

Cai Jing said: "But no matter how you say it, this cardinal secretary Tong has also folded a lot of military horses, spent a lot of money and food, and none of the officers of the Eighth Road Prefecture have come back, this is a big crime, and this matter must not be known to the saint!" Tong Guan swallowed his head and said like pounding garlic: "Please help cover it up and save your next life!" ”

Cai Jing said: "Okay, for the sake of the ministers in the same hall, this Taishi will help you once, tomorrow when you go to the court, you will only play the hot weather, and the sergeant will not accept the water and soil, and the right to strike and retreat." As long as Banzai believes it, no one else will dare to fart. ”

The next morning, the civil and military were divided into classes, and they were listed in the palace two, only to hear the eunuch Li Lin shouting: "Long live the court, sometimes start, nothing to retreat." ”

I saw Cai Jing and Taishi Cai come out of the class and played: "Long live, Weichen has something to play"

Emperor Zhao Ji bowed on the dragon chair and said: "Taishi, what do you have to do, tell me quickly!" ”

Cai Jing said: "Long live, a time ago, the saint personally sent the privy envoy Tong Guan to lead the army, marching to Liangshan Bo Caokou, due to the heat, the military horses do not accept the water and soil, and the thieves live in the puddles, not boats, horses, soldiers, can not enter in a hurry, so the right to boycott the war, each back to the camp for a while, don't wait for the holy decree." ”

Although the other ministers also heard that Tong Guan's conquest of Shuibo Liangshan was defeated and returned, and there was not much left of the 100,000 army, but since Taishi Cai had spoken, he dared to let out another flat fart, that Taishi was the head of the ministers, and the lord above 10,000 people under one person, who dared to disagree with his old man, then I am afraid that he would not want to live.

Emperor Zhao Ji glanced at Tong Guan and said, "Since the weather is hot and not conducive to the war, then don't raise the army anymore." Cai Jing said: "Long live, in the opinion of the ministers, the thieves in Shuibo Liangshan can't be allowed to run rampant anymore, otherwise they will be the ones who raise tigers." ”

Emperor Zhao Ji said: "Then I don't know what the Taishi has to say." ”

Cai Jing played: "Long live, Tong Guan's campaign is unfavorable, and the blame is hard to escape, you can listen to the crime in Taiyi Palace, and order another person to be the commander, and then go to the expedition, please give permission." ”

Zhao Ji said: "I also know that the Shuibo Liangshan thief Kou is a big trouble, and he must be eliminated, who can share my worries and go to the army to fight?" ”

At this time, Gao Yu came out of the class and said: "Long live, Weichen is not talented, I am willing to follow the work of dogs and horses, go to conquer this coward, please give the holy decree." ”

Emperor Zhao Ji said happily: "Okay, since Aiqing is willing to share worries with the widow, the world's military horses are up to you to choose." Gao Yu said again: "Long live, it is not enough to have a horse army and an infantry army alone." ”

Emperor Zhao Ji said: "Aiqing, how can you say this? ”

Gao Yu said: "The thieves of Liangshan rely on the water surface of Liangshan with a radius of more than 800 miles as a barrier to compete with the court army that went to encircle and suppress. Therefore, Wei Chen thought that he could not move forward without boats, so he asked Banzai for permission to cut down the woods near Liangshan Moor, supervise the craftsmen to build ships, or buy civilian ships for the purpose of war felling. ”

Zhao Ji said: "Since I have appointed you to take charge of the Generalissimo's Seal, everything is handled by you with full authority. ”

Gao Yu knelt down and said, "Weichen obeys the order!" ”

The emperor said: "Okay, then Aiqing will hurry up and prepare, and after everything is ready, he will set out on an auspicious day to attack Shuibo Liangshan." Retreat. As he spoke, he stood up from the dragon chair, supported by the eunuch Li Lin, and went down to sleep in the hall.

Hundreds of civil and military officials knelt down on the ground and said: "Long live, long live!" ”

Everyone walked out of the palace, Tong Guan, and Gao Yu sent Cai Jing back to Taishi's Mansion, and on the way Gao Yu said to Cai Jing: "Taishi, this time the official is in command to go to Shuibo Liangshan, and he has to be a fierce general." ”

Cai Jingdao: "You are the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses, the generals of the world are at your disposal, see if the soldiers of Nazhou and Nafu are available, just transfer them." ”

Gao Yu said: "According to the lower officials, I learned that there are ten envoys of the festival, many of whom have made contributions to the country, or conquered the ghost party, or cut the Western Xia, Jin, Liao and other foreign countries, and are proficient in martial arts. ”

Cai Jing nodded and said, "Okay." He summoned the history of the Zhongshu Provincial Guanfang Peng, planned to pass on the holy decree, and began to dispatch troops.

Ten documents were issued, and 10,000 elite soldiers from each consulate were ordered to go to Jeju to collect them and wait for the call. These ten road military horses, are all once trained elite soldiers, but also these ten section of the envoy, in the old days were born in the green forest, and later received recruitment, are all elite and brave people, the ten section envoys are:

Henan and Hebei Jiedu made Wang Huan, and Shangdang Taiyuan Jiedu made Xu Jing.

Jingbei Hongnong Festival made Wang Wende, Yingzhou Runan Festival made Mei Zhan.

Zhongshan Anping Festival makes Zhang Kai, Jiangxia Lingling Festival makes Yang Wen.

Yunzhongmen Jiedu made Han Cunbao, and Longxi Hanyang Jiedu made Li Congji.

Langya Pengcheng Festival made Xiang Yuan Town, Qinghe Tianshui Festival made Jing Zhong.

And from the Jinling Jiankang Mansion transferred a naval army, as the head commander, called Liu Menglong, commanding 15,000 naval troops, 500 ships, and went to Shuibo Liangshan to investigate.

There are not still two or three hundred generals in front of Gao Taiwei's account, and two of them are the most popular: one is called Dang Shiying, the other is called Dang Shixiong, and the two brothers have the courage of ten thousand people.

Gao Yu also selected 15,000 elite soldiers from the imperial camp, a total of 130,000 military horses, known as 150,000 to the outside world, to press the top of Mount Tai, boiling and pouring snow, to eliminate those thieves in Liangshan. (To be continued.) )
