Chapter 16 Temporary Peace, Tricks Delay

The mountain is located in the northeast of the upper reaches of Luoshui, and is located in the 800-meter peak of Xiping Mansion and Yan'an Mansion of the Great Song Dynasty in Xixia and the Great Song Dynasty. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info\qb5, //

The Xia frontier fortress is ten miles away, and no matter how good the eyesight is, the spies can't monitor the movements of the Western Xia army here, but since Zhao Leiming's monoculars, the Song army spies have begun to occupy the mountains and dense forests, remotely monitoring the every move of the Western Xia army.

"My lord! Gentlemen don't stand under the wall, this kind of frontier post is not where adults are, let's return to Yan'an Mansion as soon as possible! Ou Xifan was in the outpost of the Shansong Army and persuaded Zhao Lei hard.

Zhao Lei didn't pay attention to Ou Xifan's persuasion, and Pang Bai also stepped forward at this time and said, "My lord! This place is close to the Western Xia, once the Western Xia army knows that the adults are here, I am afraid that something will happen! Let's hurry back to Yan'an Mansion! ”

Zhao Lei, who was covered in a cover coat woven from withered yellow leaves, withdrew his gaze from the Xixia fortress at this time, handed the telescope to Ou Xifan, and said to Ou Xifan and Pombo with a smile: "If you don't come to see it in person, your heart is always unsteady, and now that you know that Yuan Hao and the Xixia army have not left Xiping Mansion, this official is much more relieved." ”

"How do you know that Yuan Hao and the Western Xia army have not left Xiping Mansion?" When Ou Xifan heard Zhao Lei's words, he immediately asked Zhao Lei with a puzzled face.

"Take a closer look at the guards on the city gate over there in Western Xia, what can you see?" Zhao Lei asked indifferently to Ou Xifan, Pang Bai and Xiao Ruoruo, who were holding binoculars beside him.

When Pang Bai heard Zhao Lei's words, he immediately looked carefully at Xixia, and after a long time, he said inexplicably: "It's very usual!" No matter the armor, weapons, mannerisms, movements. Can't see any difference, huh? ”

"You! Come here! Zhao Lei waved his hand and called over a Song army spy who had been monitoring the Xixia fortress for a long time, and asked the Song army spy carefully: "Do you think there is any difference between today's Xixia soldiers and the previous Xixia soldiers?" For example, the eyes and expressions of the Xixia soldiers? ”

Zhao Lei's words made Song Jun's spies slightly stunned, and immediately tried to start recalling, and finally said slowly with some uncertainty: "Lord Qiqi! Thinking about it carefully, those Xixia soldiers are really a little different, the current Xixia soldiers are very confident, their eyes are full of contempt for the Song Realm, I remember that when Yuan Hao defeated Haoshuichuandi, the Xixia soldiers were very depressed, and very sensitive, and they involuntarily looked nervously this way. But it's been a long time since I've looked at it, and there's confidence and contempt in my eyes. ”

"Think about it again, when Yuan Hao didn't go to Xiping Mansion, was there a difference between the performance of the Xixia soldiers in the city and now?" Zhao Lei pondered for a while and continued to ask the spies under him.

"Yes! The difference is very big, when Yuan Hao didn't come to Xiping Mansion, the Xixia soldiers patrolled and stood guard very lazy, sitting most of the time, and only stood up when the generals were inspecting, but now those Xixia soldiers are holding their chests high, patrolling and standing guard very seriously every day, and the number of inspections by the generals has also increased a lot. The Song Jun spy recalled and replied carefully.

Song Jun's words made Zhao Lei very satisfied. After waving his hand to let the spies leave, Zhao Lei smiled and said to the people around him: "Are you clear now?" ”

There is not a single stupid person in the venue. They all understood it thoroughly, it turned out that Zhao Lei just guessed that Yuanhao and the army did not leave Xiping Mansion just by relying on the expressions of the Western Xia soldiers or the reflection of the Western Xia generals.

"Yuan Hao and the Western Xia army actually didn't act, what are they waiting for? Now Lord Han Qi is about to take Xiazhou, and Hui Yu has also sent troops to Shazhou again, and he is also rectifying the soldiers and horses, and now there are only 100,000 soldiers and horses in Xingqing Mansion in Western Xia, which are not enough to block Hui Qi and Nuo, not to mention reinforcing Xiazhou, Yuan Hao is still in Xiping Mansion at this time. Doesn't he want Xiazhou anymore. Ou Xifan, who was dressed as a staff scribe, said to himself with a frown.

"Yuan Hao doesn't want Xiazhou anymore, he is waiting for the news that the adult has been edicted back to Bianjing by the official family!" At this moment, Su Xun's voice suddenly came from not far away.

"Why is Brother Mingyun here? Didn't the Lord let Brother Ming Yun stay in Yan'an Mansion to assist Lord Fan in handling official affairs? I saw Su Xun panting and coming to the outpost. Pomber immediately caught up with him and asked suspiciously.

"What other business to deal with, the Privy Council has an urgent document for eight hundred miles, so that the Lord can recall Han Qihan, who attacked Xiazhou, and return to Bianjing for review." Su Xun took out an official document from his sleeve. After handing it over to Zhao Lei, he said loudly indignantly.

Censor! Zhao Lei was slightly stunned, did not take the official document in Su Xun's hand, but took out Yuan Hao's favorite rosary in his arms, and began to ponder the impact of the news in Bianjing quietly and wisely.

"I see! I said that Yuan Hao was hiding in Xiping Mansion but did not move, and he actually stretched out his hands and feet to Bianjing, and his movements were really fast! The big men in the DPRK and China really cooperated with him. Ou Xifan has never had a good opinion of those big people in the court, so when he heard Su Xun's words, he guessed Yuan Hao's tricks for the first time, looked at the direction of Bianjing and sneered.

"It can't be! How could several important ministers in the DPRK and China cooperate with Yuan Hao to suppress the officials of our Yan'an Mansion, aren't they afraid

Heading south? Pang Bai was born in a family of bureaucrats, and because he was blinded by those important ministers in the court, he did not see the current situation as clearly as Ou Xifan, so he hesitated to defend himself.

As soon as Ou Xifan and Pang Bai finished speaking, Zhao Lei also began to sneer, he had seen the current situation clearly, and not only guessed Yuan Hao's idea of breaking the boat, but also guessed the purpose of those selfish officials in Bianjing.

"It seems that not only do we guess the madness of Yuanhao in Xixia now, but there are also people in Bianjing who can see the relationship between Song and Xia, look at this official document of the Privy Council, there are obviously people in the court who are dragging us back, and they don't want me to make a great contribution, it seems that our performance in Haoshuichuan has stimulated the nerves of some people, and some people can't help but start pulling back their legs." Zhao Lei said with a sneer.

"Before the victory or defeat is decided, they dare to retreat and ignore the monarchy, are they still the courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty!" Su Xun also wanted to understand the main reason for the change in Bianjing at this time, and said angrily.

"Alas! Now that the situation of the battle of Song and Xia has gradually become clear, it is estimated that both Bianjing and Liao already know that Yuan Hao will consume the national strength of Western Xia in the next few decades, so that Western Xia will not pose any threat to the Great Song Dynasty, at most it will get some economic benefits, with the character of those people in Bianjing, will they care about the loss of money! The battle of Haoshuichuan has made the Great Song Dynasty gain enough face, everyone can see that there is only one battle left in Song Xia, it doesn't matter who is left and who loses in this war, what matters now is that once we win this war, no one in Bianjing can overwhelm our strength, Lord Fan, Lord Han and I are all reformist officials! Once we gain power, the interests of those people are not guaranteed, so it is not surprising that they are now starting to drag their feet. Zhao Lei told the three staff members around him what he thought in his heart.

"How are you going to deal with those people in Bianjing?" Ou Xifan asked Zhao Lei after a while.

"Deal with! I can't say to deal with it, I should say to deal with it, we are in Yan'an Mansion, they are in Bianjing, and the whip is beyond the reach of the whip! Now what we need to think about is how to deal with the things that happened to Han in the past. Zhao Lei touched a mountain pine beside him and said in a deep voice.

"I just received news from Lord Han yesterday, and now the expeditionary force has begun to attack Xiazhou, but the resistance of Xiazhou is very fierce, although our army blew up a section of the city wall and rushed in, but the Western Xia army was fortified in Fangxiang, and our army advanced to Xiazhou Mansion at most, but was forced to retreat because of darkness, and the soldiers and horses under the command of Lord Han suffered heavy losses, but the Xiazhou army also paid nearly 10,000 lives." Pang Bo remembered the Xiazhou battle report he saw yesterday, and said in a cold whisper, no one thought that the Xiazhou army would fight so heroically in the street after the city was broken, Xiazhou is the foundation of the Western Xia people for a hundred years, and the Song army led by Han Qi is too inferior in street fighting, so although the Song army is well-equipped and advanced, it can't take Xiazhou for a while.

"Isn't there less than 10,000 defenders in Xiazhou! How is it possible that there are so many soldiers after 10,000 people have been killed? Ou Xifan looked at Pombo with some puzzlement and asked.

"Mr. Au has forgotten General Yang Wenguang's record in Gyeongju?" Su Xun explained to Ou Xifan with a smile.

"Xiazhou is all party members, and they are all diehard loyalists of Yuan Hao, although the defenders are not more than 10,000 people, but it is still easy to gather tens of thousands of militia in wartime, Lord Han wants to take Xiazhou with 50,000 soldiers and horses, it is not easy!" Pombo remembered the tragic situation of Dai Xiao of the Gyeongju family, shook his head and sighed.

"Lord Han's expedition to Xiazhou, if the loss is too great, I'm afraid it will be dangerous, do you want Lord Han to see the opportunity to act, and if things are not good, you will withdraw?" Su Xun thought about it for a while, and always felt that it was too risky for Han Qi to go to Xiazhou, so he proposed that Zhao Lei withdraw his troops again.

"No hurry! I always feel that Yuan Hao seems to have some backhand, Xiping Mansion now has 150,000 Xixia troops, and Yuan Hao, who is full of soldiers, has no reason to stand still! Don't forget that Hui Yu and Ji are also in action, but Yuan Hao is wasting time here, doesn't Yuan Hao know such a simple truth as the soldier god! Zhao Lei picked up the telescope and looked at Xixia again, and said to himself that he always felt that something was wrong.

"My lord! What do you think about the official documents of the Privy Council? Su Xun, who was in charge of logistics copywriting, took the official document of the Privy Council and asked Zhao Lei.

Zhao Lei didn't look at the official document of the Privy Council, and said casually: "If it is the official decree of the official family, I will have to consider it, as for the official document of the Privy Council, the official family ordered me to save all the soldiers and horses in Yan'an Mansion, what right does the Privy Council have to let me recall Lord Han, regardless of him, and throw it directly into the library." ”

After Su Xun received the order, Zhao Lei turned his gaze to Xixia again, and said to Xiao Ruoruo, who had been following the guards closely: "Ruoruo! You immediately contact the spies on the Western Xia side, no matter what the cost, you must find out the truth of the Western Xia soldiers and horses, and report to me immediately no matter what clues you have. ”

Yuan Hao, Yuan Hao, what are you doing now? Seeing that Xiao Ruoruo also left the mountain, Zhao Lei looked in the direction of Xixia and thought in his heart with great doubts.

After half a year of hard practice, Da Mo is finally out of the palace, this time he will definitely finish the book of "The Great Song Divine Doctor", and it is the end of the writing plan, and he will not come to death! )
