"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, big news, the Liao State has been destroyed!"

"The latest news, the latest news, Yanyun has recovered, it is a fertile land in the sixteen states, and there is a lot of coal and iron!"

"The king won a great victory, breaking the Liao army of 100,000 ......"

Nowadays, the newspaper industry in Beijing is extremely developed, and there are more than 60 newspapers of all sizes, of which more than 20 have the support of the big chamber of commerce, and even a few are directly behind the Song Dynasty. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

This also caused a surge in the number of newspaper sellers in Bianjing, shuttling through the streets and alleys, you can always hear them shouting and selling, in order to sell a few more newspapers a day and earn dozens of pocket money.

Wang Hao diligently introduced Zhao Ji into the seat, turned around and closed the window, and said with a smile: "The good news is coming, the whole city is happy, this is the wisdom of the official family, if it is changed due to a small setback, where can there be such a big victory?" ”

Zhao Ji couldn't help laughing.

If you want to be an emperor, you must be able to pretend to be confused, even if you know what the good news from the front line is, Zhao Ji still has to pretend to be happy.

Liang Shicheng glanced at Wang Hao coldly beside him, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, only Zhao Ji's close ministers like him knew that Zhao Ji was not really happy.

"The official family should sit down for a while, and wait for the ministers to arrange it, the miscellaneous drama in this restaurant is very good, and it can be regarded as the best ...... in Beijing this year."

Wang Hao was still chattering in front of Zhao Ji, he invited Zhao Ji out of the palace today, and paid a private visit to Weifu, saying that he wanted to observe the people's feelings, but in fact, he was introducing Zhao Ji to the acrobatic troupe here.

In the past few years, Zhao Ji has begun to like private interviews with micro-services, in fact, he is full of Jingshi visiting Qinglou, and he especially likes to prostitute the famous actors of major opera troupes. In fact, these troupes were originally half-sold and half-sung, and only ordinary theater fans regarded them as characters, but the powerful and rich regarded them as high-level Qinglou teams.

After a while, the stage below was babbling and singing.

Zhao Ji's eyes have been looking at the famous character, Wang Hao is constantly flattering, Liang Shicheng is silent, Li Bangyan occasionally responds to a few words, and the atmosphere is quite appropriate. Looking at the situation, Zhao Ji also became a little interested in that famous actor with surprisingly big eyes, and he might have to stay out tonight.

At this moment, he heard a slight chaos outside, and then Gao Yu strode in with a calm face.

As the palace marshal, Gao Yu is in charge of the forbidden army in Beijing, and now he has the position of privy deputy envoy, which is really a high power. He is also a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he often travels around with Zhao Ji, but today he has official business, so he did not follow at the beginning.

Seeing him come in, Zhao Ji was shocked, and Huo Ran stood up: "Is there something going on over there in Yanyun?" ”

"It's not Yanyun, it's Hetao." Gao Yu said in a deep voice.

"Hetao, what can happen there, the Xia thief broke his guts, I heard some time ago that Li Qianshun, the lord of Xia, also took refuge in the Great Food Sect in the west, and he had to rely on the Great Food Sect to give food to eat, hahahaha......" Wang Hao said with a smile on the side.

Thanks to the newspaper, a person like him, who is not learned and unskilled, now knows the world's major events.

Although Gao Yu is also a traitor, he at least does a good job on the surface, and every time he conducts the ceremony, the array of the forbidden army in Beijing can be seen neatly. Therefore, he glared at Wang Hao, and then turned to Zhao Ji: "There is an urgent report in the seed division, the summer thief detoured to Mobei, attracting the Hulu in the west and north, with at least tens of thousands of troops, and they are already approaching Lingzhou!" ”

Zhao Ji was stunned, and his face became extremely ugly!

Since the Xia Kingdom was driven away, the rich land of Hetao was included in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, where the Great Song Dynasty set up prefectures and counties, relocated household registration, and planted cotton in a large area, in which the Tianshui Chamber of Commerce got the largest piece of cake. It can be said that the Tianshui Chamber of Commerce was able to support itself under the strong oppression of the Donghai Chamber of Commerce, and the cotton from Hetao helped a lot.

The second is the western army, in order to pay for the merits, the imperial court allocated a lot of land in the Hetao to the soldiers, and when it received these new lands, it was inevitable to stake the land. A very important reason why the imperial court was able to continuously mobilize the western army, and the western army had no big grievances, was that the benefits of being here in the Hetao made the western army very satisfied.

In May of the fifth year of Xuanhe of the Great Song Dynasty, in a large pasture under Helan Mountain, the seed man scolded and threw the wine bottle in his hand away.

Since the death of the Planter Dao Array, the Planter has been a little unable to raise his head in the Western Army, even if his father is still in the Planter, but he was driven to Lingzhou to be idle - it is said that he is here to guard against the Xia people, but everyone knows that the Xia people were driven to the opposite side of the desert, and only after the Great Song Dynasty is familiar with the geography of the desert, they will be killed, where do you need to be prepared?

What's more, after the Western Army has been transferred twice in a row, there are only more than 10,000 people left in the area from Lingzhou to Helan Mountain, and they are hoarded in various places, where is the need for such a general in the seed division to guard here!

Chong Yanchong, the grandson of the seed master Dao, followed behind his uncle, and he also had a depressed look on his face.

All the sons of the seed master Dao died, and the grandchildren were the only one left, so the Western Army intended to take care of him and transferred him out of the army, saying that he was returning to Lingzhou to guard filial piety for the seed master. But as a descendant of a martial artist, where is there any saying that filial piety is not kept and not obeyed, Chong Yanchong feels that he can better reflect his filial piety to his grandfather by going into battle to kill the enemy.

"Uncle, why don't we go and find trouble with the Shatuo people?" Thinking of this, Chong Yan Chong sat up from the grass and suggested to Chong Xun.

A few years ago, because Xia was destroyed, several departments moved to Yinshan in the north, and they claimed to be Shatuo people, who were descendants of Li Keyong and distant relatives of the Han family. When they came, they grazed under the Helan Mountain, and there was no major conflict with the Han people who farmed on both sides of the Yellow River, except that skirmishes still occurred occasionally.

Chong Xun tilted his eyes: "If you want to be beaten by the boss, just go!" ”

Chong Yanchong scratched his head, revealing a sneer: "If you have an uncle with you, you can beat the military stick...... Hey! ”

He exhaled suddenly, because on the opposite side, from the slope of Helan Mountain, a group of men and horses galloped forward.

Tan Xun glanced at it, his face changed slightly, and then quickly jumped on the horse, took the binoculars off the horse's neck, and looked in that direction.

"It should be the Shatuo people, they came to trouble us today? Okay, okay, it's ......" Chongyan Chong was nagging there, but he saw Chong Xun take off the horn on his waist and blow it suddenly.

Immediately afterwards, Chong Xun looked at Chong Yanchong with blazing eyes: "You go back to Lingzhou and warn the boss...... I don't think that's right! ”

"It's just more than ten people riding Shatuo, what's wrong, uncle, I'll go with you......"

"Hurry up and get out of here, this is a military order!" He whipped him in the face: "My uncle only has you as a seedling, you idiot!" ”

At this time, Chong Yanchong also felt that something was wrong.

It didn't look like the Shatuo people were looking for trouble, but they were fleeing for their lives!

He squinted and raised his binoculars, and saw a long black line behind the Shatuo man.

That's at least two or three hundred horsemen, chasing these Shatuo people!

"The diviners are coming, the Tatars are coming!" The Shatuo people shouted from afar.

In fact, they are also called white Tatars by the Liao State, but at this time, they can't care about going up to get in touch with those obstructors - on the grassland, the weak eat the strong, barbaric and fishy, and small tribes like them come forward to pull relations, the biggest possibility is that men are killed or reduced to herdsmen, and women become other people's wives and concubines.

"Uncle, what about you!"

"Fool, I'll lure them away, you go back and warn!"

Chong Xun scolded again, those Shatuo people did good deeds, obviously, they didn't want these divinators to harm their tribe, so they led it to the Han people!

Chong Yan Chong was young and didn't think about it, but Chong Xun was a few years older than him and knew what it meant. On the other side of the river, there are several large farms of the Tianshui Chamber of Commerce and the Western Army, where hundreds of Han families farm, and now they are almost defenseless, so they are guarded according to the village, and if there are no reinforcements, they will inevitably be slaughtered!

Therefore, the only hope is that among the seed divisions who are now serving as the defense envoys of Lingzhou Zhizhou and Helan Mountain, he can urgently transfer two or three thousand people in his hands, and if there is enough time, there can be ten thousand people, and then recruit the people to gather twenty or thirty thousand troops.

Maybe you can use this to solve the siege......

Deep down, he actually knew that this was wishful thinking.

How could the diviners go south!

And if they go south, how can there be only a few hundred horses!

What's more, Chong Xun still has an intuition that these divination blockers may be related to the summer thief.

This time, Chong Yanchong didn't delay any longer, he called "Uncle take care", and got on the horse and left.

The horn sounded again, and then he saw wolf smoke rising in the sky above the farm in the distance. He felt a little at ease, the western army was hoarding fields here, and it was not all unprepared, and together with the wolf smoke, the people of several nearby Zhuangzi would each hold their own swords and gather in a fortress on the bank of the small river to prepare for defense.

At this time, the group of Shatuo people got closer, Chong Xun sneered twice, took off his bow, turned around and swished connected with three arrows, and shot the three fastest Shatuo horses.

The horse stood up injured and threw the Shatuo people off his body, and the rest of the Shatuo people shouted and cursed, and some people bent their bows to shoot, but Chong Xun had already driven the horse to run.

The Shatuo people rode well, and they didn't lose their lives when they fell like that, but they just rolled on the ground for more than ten times, but when they got up, they looked desperate.

The intention of the soothsayers was obvious, and after losing their horses, they could no longer escape, and the soothsayers would have to delay a little time when they killed them.

As for whether this is too cruel to these Shatuo people, just as the Shatuo people did not hesitate to lure the divination people to the Han people, Chong Xun also did not hesitate. If there is a heart of benevolence and righteousness at this time, it is self-destruction!

Chong Xun expected to be right, the three Shatuo people delayed the pursuers for a little more time, and with this little time, Chong Xun had already crossed the river.

Behind him, more than a dozen horsemen followed the Shatuo people across the river, and their goal was the same, that is, the Song people stood on the riverside fortress.

But at the moment when he came ashore on his horse, he heard the sound of a horn like thunder.

He turned back in shock, and saw that among the divination blockers behind him, a large green flag had been set up, and the flag was embroidered with a crescent moon, and on the side of this flag, there was another flag embroidered with the word "summer".

Sure enough, after being driven away for several years, the summer thief is back! (To be continued.) )
