In the Bianjing ban, although the cold winter is at the beginning of the year, it is still warm as spring under the heating of more than a dozen braziers in the palace of Queen Miao. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info. qb5

The graceful and luxurious Empress Miao lay lazily and contentedly beside the official Zhao Zhen, looking at the men around her with a tender face, and her heart was full of satisfaction with her current life.

Since Queen Miao became the queen, she has a kind, empathetic, gentle and generous nature, giving the official Zhao Zhen a warm feeling that she can't get from Queen Guo, unconsciously, the official Zhao Zhen will sleep in the queen's bedroom for almost ten days every month, this kind of life and the life when she used to be a concubine can only see Zhao Zhen once a month, the difference is so big that it is unimaginable, Queen Miao, who is immersed in happiness, is more and more grateful to Zhao Lei and Wang Su and other ministers who supported her to become the queen.

Lying there with a smile on the face of the official Zhao Zhen, Queen Miao asked softly: "The official family is in a good mood today!" The concubine saw that the official family had been laughing today! ”

"Yes! I have been in a really good mood recently, I listened to Zhao Aiqing's words, let the prince Xin move for half an hour every day, so that the prince Xin's body is getting stronger and stronger, and the court is in order, the floods in the Daimyo's mansion have also subsided, and the pacification of the victims is also underway, the Liao country has civil strife, heavy losses, and I can't breathe down without three or five years, today I received Zhao Aiqing's recital, he defeated the 5,000 Qiang army and 2,000 cavalry of the Western Xia capture army with 6,000 Qingzhou troops, and defeated the Qiang and Western Xia troops who invaded Qingzhou, and made great contributions, and now the situation is very goodHow could I not be happy! The official Zhao Zhen said with a smile.

"Zhao Lei! Speaking of him. The officials really want to reward him well! Since he came to Bianjing, he first eliminated the sores, then cured the prince's evil disease, then predicted the flood of the Daimyo's mansion, and now repelled the invading enemy army, this young man who is both civil and military. It needs to be promoted. Queen Miao remembered that she was also in love with Zhao Lei, so she sat on the throne of the queen, smiled and said to the official Zhao Zhen blowing the pillow wind.

"Of course you have to promote it well! After the flood in the Daimyo's Mansion, I already wanted to transfer Zhao Lei back to Beijing, but the Gyeongju Army couldn't do without him, so I asked him to reform the Gyeongju Army, and now I have defeated the Western Xia invasion and made great contributions, I can justifiably transfer him back, compared to Li Di and Lu Yijian, they won't say anything. Zhao Zhen thought of Zhao Lei's various achievements, and said to Miao Guifei with a smile.

Miao Guifei yawned after seeing the official Zhao Zhen finish speaking. Hurriedly said gently: "Okay, official, it's getting late, it's better to rest early, and I have to go to court tomorrow!" ”

Hearing Miao Guifei's words of concern. Zhao Zhen nodded, gently hugged her delicate body as smooth as jade, and slowly entered the dream.

However, at this time, the official Zhao Zhen never expected that his good mood could only be maintained for three days, because after three days. A war report from Gyeongju will disturb the entire imperial court, and at the same time, it will also disturb Zhao Zhen's hard-won good mood.

……

In the evening, dark clouds topped. The sky was dark, and the blizzard gathered in the sky over Bianjing, and it was about to fall.

In the Imperial Palace of Bianjing, the atmosphere is like a blizzard in the sky, frozen with a tense atmosphere, and above the main hall, whether it is the official Zhao Zhen or the civil and military officials below, all of them have gloomy faces, and their eyes are cloudy and uncertain, and they don't know what to think.

"Official!" At this time, an attendant came up with a cup of tea and handed it to the official Zhao Zhen.

While! The official Zhao Zhen with a dark face. I grabbed the teacup and threw it the main hall, and after the fall, I felt that I was not relieved, and I threw all the miscellaneous items such as the folds that could be dropped in the main hall.

None of the courtiers dared to speak, they all knew the temper of the official Zhao Zhen, once the official Zhao Zhen dropped something, it meant that Zhao Zhen's mood was already very angry, at this time, it was better to be careful and not to touch his eyebrows.

"Why? Why, exactly? Zhao Lei led the 6,000 Qingzhou army, which was able to defeat the 5,000 Qiang army and the 2,000 most elite cavalry of the Western Xia army, while Song Ju, Zhao Dexuan and Wang Wen, the 30,000 army actually lost to more than 10,000 people in the Western Xia, and the most hateful thing was that it was ambushed twice, and even the hair of the Western Xia army did not hurt a single one, a group of waste! The official Zhao Zhen roared and said angrily.

Seeing that the civil and military officials of the imperial court did not dare to speak, the official Zhao Zhen continued to say angrily: "You! Do you know what the people say about the earth now? They said that the Great Song army was cowardly and incompetent, the imperial court was negligent in border preparations, and completely ignored the lives of the people in the frontier, look at this, this is a satirical poem made by Su Shunqin about the army and the imperial court, and now it has been sung to the Great Song Dynasty, all the people of the Great Song Dynasty know that the imperial army is cowardly and incompetent, and the army of 30,000 people is not the opponent of the 10,000 Western Xia army. What a shame! ”

"Gyeongju defeated the king division without a war, has the ambition to prepare the army, and the world has been inherited for decades, although this saying has been abandoned by people.

At this age, Xirong betrayed the World Alliance, followed the autumn wind to the border city, slaughtered the familiar households and burned the barrier fort, and 100,000 galloped through the mountains.

Who is there in the national defense of the fortress today? The official is responsible for the production of milk stinky children. Chewing heartily is a career, how to know the opportunity to be a soldier!

Fu moves the fire and rushes to take the pawn, which means that it is like a corpse. Before the first army went to war, the expulsion of the urgent envoy was despaired.

The horse fat armor is full of gas, although there is a bow and sword. Lian Yi wanted to fall into the deep valley, and the captives laughed and laughed.

A subdued goose marched out, the mountain was dying into a heavy encirclement, and our army was exempted from begging to die, and the face was bound and weeping.

The patrol ordered all the artists to compete for small skills and songs. The rest of the slashes were let go, and the eastward arrow liquid was dripping.

If you have no ears, you are like a monster, and you are ashamed to return if you don't give birth. The defenders are depressed and the trappers are suffering, and it is up to the Lord to do it.

The ground machine does not want to win, and it is sad to humiliate China! At this moment, Zhao Yuanyan, the king of Meng, suddenly read out aloud Su Shunqin's poem condemning the Great Song military and the imperial court, and heard that the civil and military officials above the hall all lowered their arrogant heads, silent, and looked guilty.

"Fortunately, Zhao Lei and Zhao Aiqing fought for me to get back some face, otherwise I really wouldn't have the face to meet the ancestors and ancestors under Jiuquan. When the first emperor was gentle and sheep-like in Western Xia, he actually turned into a vicious wolf in the hands of me, it seems that I and the Great Song Dynasty are easy to bully, I have decided, I want to transfer Zhao Lei back to Bianjing, to discuss the reform of the army. If the Great Song Army continues like this, I am afraid that it will not take a few decades, and there will be no place for me to stand. The official Zhao Zhen said angrily, waved his hand and strode away, no court official dared to stop the official family from leaving, and refuted the official family's will to transfer back Zhao Lei.

……

In Gyeongju, Zhao Lei finally received the will to leave the Gyeongju Army and return to Bianjing, and at the same time, Zhao Zhen asked Zhao Lei for candidates to stay in Gyeongju, and Zhao Lei naturally recommended that he was very familiar with the situation in Gyeongju. At the same time, Di Qing, who was brilliant.

However, before leaving Gyeongju, Zhao Lei led a thousand Gyeongju cavalry and two thousand cavalry foot soldiers who had just recovered from their wounds, with a large number of siege equipment, to the northwest, and their goal. It is to break through the Qiang tribe in Malingzhai, kill chickens and respect monkeys, and let the Qiang people know what kind of fate will happen if they follow the Western Xia to plunder the Great Song Dynasty.

Located in the northwest of Gyeongju, Malingzhai is the largest gathering village of Qiang people in Gyeongju, and there are four or five Qiang people from different tribes living in the village. At the same time, it is also a place where the Qiang people of Gyeongju trade.

Under Maling Village, 3,000 Qingzhou troops surrounded the gate of Maling Village, bed crossbows and various artillery carts (stone throwing vehicles) used for siege. A column was dispatched, with a thousand cavalry lined up left and right, responsible for protecting the safety of these siege weapons, while Di Qing led two thousand foot soldiers to form a formation to prepare to attack Malingzhai.

Malingzhai is the only stone village built by the Qiang people against the Song and Qiang people, and the city wall is built between two mountains, although it is not as steep as the Gyeongju military camp, but it is also a rare Xiongguan in Gyeongju.

"The last time Maling Village collapsed was to send 5,000 troops, it has already collapsed. Many fifty-year-old people and teenage children have gone to war, after the defeat, the Qiang people who fled back to Maling Village are less than 1,000 people, and now the soldiers who can fight in the village must be less than 1,000 people, but if they desperately let the women also go out to defend the village, I am afraid it is easy to gather 3,000 people and horses, plus the unique location of Maling Village, it is not easy to fight! Yang Wenguang learned the lesson of the last time, and this time he directly led the troops to escort Zhao Leidi, and whispered to Zhao Lei.

"This official is not ready to directly send troops to attack Malingzhai, although Malingzhai is steep, but it is too backward, if there is no armament provided by the Western Xia army, they don't even have the most basic iron-armored crossbow, Malingzhai doesn't have a bed crossbow and artillery carriage, this kind of opponent, I don't understand why I didn't pull it out earlier." Zhao Lei said with a sneer.

"My lord! What do you mean? Yang Jinhua heard Zhao Lei's words, looked at Zhao Lei with a shocked face and asked.

"This official brought all the fierce fire oil in Gyeongju this time, these fierce fire oil plus the gun carriage are enough to burn the entire Maling Village into ruins, without abandoning a single soldier, we can completely destroy the entire Maling Village, and let the Qiang people see the power of the Great Song Dynasty." Zhao Lei said indifferently with a cold face.

"My lord! There are tens of thousands of Qiang people in Malingzhai? Yang Wenguang said in shock.

"When we came, you saw the burned villages on the side of the road, I heard people from Gyeongju say that there used to be at least 20,000 people of the Great Song Dynasty living here, but since the Qiang people of Malingzhai took refuge in the Western Xia, they burned and looted, slaughtered the nearby villages, and set fire to all of them, and paid tribute to the looted women's treasures to the Western Xia, do you think they are still my Great Song people!" Zhao Lei said coldly with an expressionless face.

"But! The old people and children here are innocent. Xiao Ruoruo couldn't bear to say at this time.

"Innocent! Malingzhai is not so much a Qiang tribe as a bandit nest, General Xiao, do you remember the people of the 36th village in Hebei! Are they more innocent, they didn't do anything, honestly farming, just because you were bandits, they were assigned to the frontier, do you think, compared with the people of Hebei 36 villages, who is more innocent, can you say that you can be ruthless against the people of the Great Song Dynasty, you can't be ruthless against the people of the Qiang people, can you not be ruthless against the people of the Qiang people, can you not be the officials of the Great Song Dynasty at all, but the officials of the Qiang people. Zhao Lei looked at Yang Wenguang, Yang Jinhua and Xiao Ruoruo with a sneering expression.

In the face of Zhao Lei's sarcastic words, Yang Wenguang's brothers and sisters and Xiao Ruoruo have no reason to refute, because Zhao Lei is right, there are more innocent and tragic deaths among the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is better to sympathize with these Qiang people, than to sympathize with the people of the Great Song Dynasty!

Until no one objected, Zhao Lei fiercely looked at more and more Qiang soldiers at the head of Maling Walled City, many white old people, teenage children, and sturdy women, more and more Qiang people picked up rough weapons, stood at the head of the city with a firm expression, and looked at the Song army under the city with hatred.

"Artillery convoy! Get ready to shoot fiery canisters and fire bombs! Zhao Lei immediately ordered to say to the prepared artillery carriages.

"Put!" With Zhao Lei's order, Yang Wenguang's brothers and sisters and Xiao Ruoruo couldn't bear to turn their backs.

Rumble! First, dozens of canisters filled with fierce fire oil were thrown at the head of the Maling Walled City and the city, and then the fireballs that could burn were thrown into the Maling Village by artillery trucks.

Adding fuel to the fire, the houses built of wood inside the collapse of Maling Village quickly burst into flames, and it was a raging fire that could not be extinguished with water.

A terrible, desperate scream came from the village, and the raging fire quickly spread, and the fire reflected the sky of the entire Gyeongju.

(The fifth volume is finally over, this volume is a failure, it can be clearly reflected from the subscription, but the alternate history can never avoid the scenes of war, maybe the desert is not good at describing war scenes, the next volume returns to Bianjing, will continue to be in Bianjing, the life of the wind and snow, so stay tuned!) )
