Volume 2 Bianliang mistakes Chapter 29 Troubles

On February 28 of the fifth year of Xuanhe of the Great Song Dynasty, there was a solemn atmosphere in Yanjing City.

This atmosphere of slaughter is not because the turmoil outside Yanjing City has started, and it has almost swept half of the Great Liao Nanjing Road that day. To the north of Yanjing, the transportation connection with Yanjing City was completely cut off.

At this moment, in Yanjing City, and at the key points within dozens of miles around Yanjing, 60,000 or 70,000 troops and horses of the Western Army were gathered, and they were well-equipped, well-organized, and battle-hardened divisions. In Yanjing City, the grain and grass reserves are sufficient for three months, and the city defense has also been renovated in the past two months. No matter how loud the rabble outside is, don't think you can enter Yanjing City. Everyone is relieved about this.

At this moment, the aura of slaughter is all because a team of Western soldiers and soldiers, wearing armor, in front of the two angels of Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong, one commander and one command, the queue neatly walked over to the Western Army, after Geng Nanzhong Yu Wenxu urged them to send troops to quell the chaos four or five times a day, their reaction was that from this morning, a team of self-out camps, passing through Geng Nan Zhongyu Wenxu Angel Xingyuan, making trouble and asking for rewards

Among these Western soldiers, in addition to the soldiers, the most are envoys such as the ten generals and the Ya, and the marquis in charge of a team is rare. Without the generals, their formation would not be chaotic at all, let alone the kind of noise and riots that messed up the army. The Song army is regarded as a professional soldier, and it is not uncommon in the history of the Great Song Dynasty to make a salary, but this is the first time that such a salary is unprecedented

In this era, the Song army is one of the few divisions that pays attention to the ranks in the army. For no other reason, the pressure against the cavalry was too great. The requirements for the formation queue in the army can only be doubled. At this time, in the medieval West, there was still a group of knights who looked like tin cans, with chaotic attendants, and the people fought and slashed each other.

The Western Army is the Great Song Dynasty Border Army, and this step is even more beautiful. A group of ironclad divisions slowly rolled past Geng Nanzhong and Yu Wenxuzhong, and the footsteps sounded neatly, as if shaking the entire Yanjing City. Every ten or twenty steps, you have to stop and form a formation with the sound of the golden drum, and then start and move forward. It seems to be performing a separate sequence in front of two angels. None of these ironclad divisions had blades in their hands, but the teams of ironclad armor were rolling by, and this kind of deterrent power was already amazing enough.

Two flag gates are set up in the open space in front of the line, about two zhang high, and the white flag is hung with ink characters on it, and there are a total of eight big characters on the two flag gates.

"Although the merit is not rewarded, how can you fight"

Eight large ink-stained characters were written with teeth and claws, fluttering just before the line. The brigade has been away for thousands of miles, and it has been away for almost three years. At the beginning, the children of the Western Army, who lost nearly half of their children in Shaanxi, walked silently like this. There was no voice, only the sound of neat stomping in the queue.

After the first team of infantry, even the cavalry also came on the field. The cavalry were also neatly arranged, and each team came with the same color under their crotch mounts.

Among the Western Army, it was originally the most good riders in the Great Song Army. Troops were sent from Shaanxi, and at least 10,000 horsemen were brought out. After three years of fighting, especially to the hot Jiangnan, a large number of war horses were killed. Not in Shaanxi, even if the Great Song Dynasty had the heart to replenish them, there were no horses, and later they were divided into white soldiers to go out to Xiao Yan, and the number of cavalry in the army was only 1,000 when it was the lowest, and many cavalry troops were changed to infantry troops. After the defeat of Yanjing, a large number of war horses were captured, and the number of cavalry in this army began to recover again, and now it is still possible to make such a pomp and circumstance according to the color of the horse.

The cavalry marched in formation, which gave a greater visual impact than the infantry marching in formation. The horses rolled forward in rows, and the knights were silent one by one, but they couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the door. In the queue, only the sound of horses' hooves and the sound of war horses snorting could be heard. Compared with the hustle and bustle, this silent silence brings more pressure to people

At the gate of Xingyuan, it was the remnants of the Huanqing Army under Wang Yu's department who guarded the safety of Xingyuan. They were all at a loss to see their robes pass by in front of the line in a steady stream, as if there was no time to break off. Wang Yu stood aside with his sword, his face even more pale. This kind of trouble has never been seen since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty. This is not chaos in the army, but the Western Army is showing off the cohesion of the Western Army to the two angels, although you are the Angel Day, but we give an order, saying that if you don't fight, you won't fight

Wang Yu is a relatively old-fashioned general, and he can even be said to be more close to the text. In the Western Army, the group of generals, it has always been a little out of place, so it can be used by Tong Guan and pulled out of the Western Army. There was a qiē in front of him, which made him feel shocked and angry, the Great Song Dynasty couldn't even control the last border army, what could be wrong? But there is another voice in my mind, this last border army can be pulled out of the field division, and the Great Song Dynasty bureaucracy and doctor system will also be deliberately destroyed by differentiation and weakening, and the strong enemy is on the side, how can this be done

The Huanqing soldiers under his command were not in such a dilemma as Wang Yu. Since the defeat of the Huanqing army, Liu Yanqing is waiting for the crime of Bianliang. Tong Guan also lost his former majesty. The remnants of the Huanqing Army are feeling lonely and have no one to rely on. At this time, seeing that the main force of the Western Army is so majestic, I can't wait to join their queue Huanqingjun has been by Tong Guan's side for a long time, unlike the Western Army that can huddle together for warmth, and it has been more than once or twice by Tong Guanzuo's close to Wenchen, watching the Western Army show off their might in front of the two Wenchen, there is an honor. Even these soldiers vaguely feel that the world of the Great Song Dynasty will not be the same as before

No matter what Wang Yu and his subordinates think, the central characters at this moment are not them. Rather, it was Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong, two angels. I have to say that Geng Nanzhong has a literati backbone, while Yu Wenxu regards the dangerous situation as an idle matter. In the past, the hungry army of the Great Song Dynasty made trouble, and the targets were all directed at the Wenchen who was in charge of the key points of food and salary. Wen Chen also ran away for the first time, knowing that it would not end well in the hands of the chaotic army.

But Geng Nanzhong and Yu Wenxuzhong heard that the Western Army was dispatched and went straight to Xingyuan. However, Wang Yu persuaded hard, and stood at the gate of Xingyuan, Geng Nanzhong's long beard fluttered, with a look of shore, standing proudly on the spot, ready to be righteous when the hungry army poured in, even if he was martyred, he could not bend slightly. Although Yuwen Xuzhong's face was dark, as if he had been thinking hard about the reality in the meantime, he did not have the perfect gentleman's demeanor and posture that Geng Nanzhong showed Xiàn, standing half a step behind Geng Nanzhong, but his demeanor and demeanor were all as if nothing had happened, as if what the two of them were facing was not a riot caused by tens of thousands of the most elite divisions of the Great Song Dynasty armed to the teeth

The attitude of these two people, Wang Yu, is admired by everyone.

Geng Nanzhong had already brewed all the feelings, and Yuwen Xuzhong also thought that riots were inevitable. The two of them didn't expect that this commotion and commotion would be like this

Groups of Western sergeants passed neatly in front of them, if it weren't for the two flags planted in front of them. It's as if they're being proofread by two angels. All of them were silent and neat, without the slightest movement. Only a pair of silent eyes were projected, as if they were screaming silently.

We have been fighting on the border for decades, fighting with thieves in the west, and for several generations before and after, it is rare for a man in the family to die of old age. The Great Song Dynasty transferred us out of Shaanxi, we 150,000 sons abandoned their families and children, from the south of the Yangtze River to the north, the first battle was the end of the third year to set Yanyun, although it was Xiao Yangong, but the main force in Xiao Yan's army, as well as our western army's white soldiers in the north, also died tens of thousands of brothers in the north, and the robe Zegong was not rewarded, but also deliberately divided our military horses, I don't know how to dismantle after the war. When the time comes, when there are foreign enemies, see who can still protect you Great Song elites

The Western Army rolled by, and before they knew it, Geng Nanzhong and Yu Wenxuzhong stood in this compelling gaze and killing atmosphere for almost two hours.

No matter how strict the integrity is, it can't cure the pain in the feet. Geng Nanzhong maintained a posture and stood upright, and the Western Army looked at him, and he glared back without giving in. My eyes hurt right now. Finally, he couldn't maintain this rigidity anymore, turned back to Yuwen and smiled bitterly: "Shutong, how is this good?" ”

Yuwen Xuzhong's face was gloomy, and he shook gently: "This is the proper meaning of the question, the chaotic army is going south." If you don't make such a salary, how can it be shown that the whole army really has no fighting spirit, so you can only close the city in Yanjing City? However, such moderation is unexpected, and it is more powerful to make more trouble............ If the trouble is bigger, the court will understand that now the court and the central government have no power to restrain the tens of thousands of Western troops except for the righteousness of the name, and you must know that Tong Xuanshuai has no power."

Geng Nanzhong was slightly angry, and glared at Yuwen Xuzhong: "Shutong, what do you mean by this?" Do you think these warriors are not domineering enough? ”

Yuwen smiled lightly: "Daoxi, I'm just inferring according to the plain reason............ From this point of view, the Western Army is not a monolith, and the old species has always avoided meeting. He's not afraid to make things bigger............ However, the generals of the Western Army still have some scruples............ Maybe that's the room for surprise"

Geng Nanzhong's face showed a rare look of decadence: "Shutong, what else do you want to do?" The Western Army is like this, how can you and I be mobilized? According to me, it is better to let Wang Zhengchen's 3,000 troops and horses go out of the city to suppress the rebellious army."

Yuwen shook his head in a false manner: "No, although Wang Zhengchen claims to be three thousand military horses, they are all made up." There is no accumulation of military resources, there is no field bondage, and the armament is far from sufficient, not to mention ............"

He smiled bitterly, pointed to the guards in front of them, probed his brain, and looked at the Huanqing soldiers who were rolling past the Western Army with an excited expression: "............ If the Western Army is like this, how can they still have the will to fight? The Western Army has already gone out of the camp to make trouble like this, and you want the Huanqing Army to follow suit again? ”

A trace of anger flashed on Geng Nanzhong's face, and in the end, he was still depressed: "Shutong, the military ministers are domineering, as for this gang is often disordered, it is going to be a big thing, you and I have nothing to do here, so let's resign and return to the court............ Everyone works together, and they always have to think of ways to clean up this qiē"

Yuwen Xuzhong still shook his head: "Once you and I return to the dynasty, it will be the day when the husband is reinstated, and the husband will be in power for decades, and the Great Song Dynasty is already full of holes. You and I must not back down."

Geng Nanzhong let out a rare sigh: "If you don't go to Yanjing, it is difficult to know that the imperial court has the means to restrain the military ministers, and it is already powerless, if it is not for the fight between the husband and the prince of the court, they have to focus on the Yanyun war, how can there be such a situation?" Whether it is Cai Xiang or Wang Xiangtong Shuai, they are all mistaken scholars, and they are all scholars, and they are helpless when they set foot in it, and they are really ashamed of the people of the world."

Yuwen smiled in vain, but did not respond to Geng Nanzhong's sigh. He has been in Yanjing for some time, repeatedly observing and inferring, and is confident that he has mastered the mentality of the Western Army, and he has also deduced the general appearance of this chaos. He believed that this was not yet the time of despair, and that he still had a chance

Compared with Geng Nanzhong and them, although Yuwen Xuzhong is in the same party as them. But I have always felt that this generation has more sense of righteousness and less practical ability. is still focused on the competition for the court, and all his thoughts are trying to get out of the oppression of Cai Jing and Wang Huang. And ignorant of not knowing that the general trend of the world has changed. The Great Song Dynasty has already been damaged to the point of vitality, and foreign enemies have risen vigorously. Yuwen is young and intelligent, ambitious, and takes the world as his own responsibility. The idol in my heart is Fan Wenzhenggong. He was deeply disgusted with Cai Jing, and he also looked down on Wang Huang Tongguan's generation, and between the clear streams on his side, he did not feel that there was no place for heroes.

This time I have the opportunity to go north to Yanjing, which is exactly what I can do to show my strength and take revenge in my life. A great opportunity to do things that help the difficult ones. How could he let Geng Nanzhong go lightly, and it seemed that he already had the intention of admitting defeat, but he hadn't been in the void yet

When Geng Nanzhong was depressed, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves on the road. Yuwen Xuzhong suddenly perked up and came

The trouble here started, although it was expected. But the Western Army acted with moderation. In Yuwenxu's opinion, there is no need, the bigger the tide is stirred, the greater the pressure on Bianliang. The more opportunities you have to get what you want. Since you have already done it, why do you want to leave fifteen in the pretend? Such foresight is not the work of those who do great things.

The old breed is a figure in the Great Song Dynasty, so he will not be so unwise. It can only be said that the generals of the Western Army who specifically handled this matter are still afraid of the tail, and they are still afraid of people coming from the imperial court. If the Western army shows off and demonstrates for a while, it will inevitably rush to clean up the situation. As long as you identify those people, once the situation changes, there may be an opportunity to pull them out of the Western army

He brace himself and watch the way he comes. I saw seven or eight generals of the Western Army, galloping under the escort of dozens of cavalry. The first person is Yao Gu who is under the old seed in Yanjing City. He rode on the back of the horse with a blue face, and when he ran from afar, he had already shouted loudly: "I am waiting for the situation, the court knows that it is doing this, violating the military order, and threatening the angels, but the big sin is not stopped in a hurry, and they each return to the camp."

The rolling queue of the Western Army slowly stopped, and a ten generals who seemed to be clever and clever and gave words came out of the team to salute Yao Gu, and protested: "The two angels patrol on behalf of the heavens, just to report our grievances to the official family. A few ministers can bear it, but we can't help it, don't say reward, for two months in a row, we don't even have a penny of salary, we have been sent to the army for three years, the family doesn't know how much famine it has, and we don't expect us to pay off our debts after we go back, and we also have to help the families of the brothers, we don't dare to alarm the two angels, just line up, let the two angels understand the pain of our fighting and selling men, Yao Xianggong, in front of the two angels, you have to speak for us"

As soon as he shouted, the surrounding Western soldiers responded one after another, and they all saluted Yao Gushi. Yao Gu looked so angry that his hands trembled, jumped off the horse and paced quickly and hurriedly: "A certain can't control you, a certain can't control you, the imperial court naturally has the difficulties of the imperial court, so we can't be considerate?" How can you be unaware, some kind of leader? I have not forced you to go out to fight with the rebel army, and when the time comes, it is too late to reward the military salary, and if you become a seller, you will also be given a gift. Who would have thought that you would make a splash of trouble here?"

Speaking of hatred, Yao Gu took out his horsewhip and beat the ten generals with their heads and faces. The ten generals did not run away, holding their heads and suffering bitterly, and their mouths were still distinguishing: "A few ministers are kind, don't we miss it?" The ministers are also embarrassed, how dare we force a few ministers? However, this reward for the military salary is our life's work, and it should be given to us by the imperial court."

Yao Gu couldn't help but sneer, and simply threw the whip to the ground. Striding towards Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong, Wang Yu ignored them with his sword, and ordered his subordinates to dodge a path. Yao Gu led the generals, the armor leaves were sonorous, and went straight to Geng Nanzhong and Yuwen Xuzhong, and bowed deeply: "Two angels, a certain level of command of the army is not effective, but it has alarmed the angels, capital crimes, capital crimes, and now the army's heart is so chaotic, and please ask the two angels to reward the military salary as soon as possible, and a certain will go out of the city to fight to the death to atone for this sin."

Geng Nanzhong sneered slightly and raised his face. Although he is old-fashioned and square, he is not stupid. Yao Gu had a conversation with the ten generals, and they were all in one sentence both openly and secretly, and they couldn't go out of Yanjing to fight the rebels. At this time, I pretended to be innocent. With such military ministers who only know their own selfish interests, what else is there to say about such national beetles, one day, they will be liquidated and cleaned up

At this moment, Geng Nanzhong forgot about it. Yanjing, where he is now living in peace, is this group of military ministers who have paid tens of thousands of dead and wounded, under the intrigue of the upper echelons, under the indiscriminate command, they fought desperately, and Xiao Yan, the biggest hero of the restoration of Yanjing, if he hadn't cleverly hid outside, according to the discussion between him and Yuwen Xuzhong, he should have taken down the military law a long time ago, as an example to deter the Western Army, Wenchen regarded Wuchen as a slave, and Wuchen could not treat Wenchen as a villain?

Seeing Geng Nanzhong and Yao Gu frozen there, Yuwen took a few steps forward, helped Yao Gu up with a smile, and said warmly: "Brother Xiyan, why do you have to do this? You have done your best, and the army is really not able to fight at this moment. Something has been seen in the eye. Besides, if Xu Zhongyong is a soldier, how can he alarm Brother Xidao and me? I will wait for the heavenly patrol, the soldiers have grievances, and it is normal to gather and tell them, and I will not blame the slightest bit, Brother Xiyan, although I am relaxed, Brother Xidao and I will do our best to ask for rewards for the Western Army, and it will all fall on us."

Seeing that Yuwen was like this, Geng Nanzhong made a gesture: "Uncle Tong, you are"

Yuwen smiled unabated, and made a gesture towards Geng Nanzhong to calm down. Geng Nanzhong has this good, knowing that he is not mediocre in terms of strain and wisdom, so he trusts Yuwen to be very successful. And after standing here for so long, I have long been tired. Seeing the posture of these military ministers, he was also angry, and he changed his words at the moment: "How about this, Yao Jian will discuss with Shutong that there is no hesitation, since there is no chaos in the army, go back to rest first and leave"

After saying that, he waved his sleeves, and walked towards the line without looking back. Yuwen Xuzhong still smiled gently, and said to Yao Gu: "Please please restrain the upper and lower levels for the time being, and wait for the news of Bianliang?" I'll just sit and watch, Xiao Xuanzan is outside, can you calm this chaos............"

Yao Gu was a little unpredictable, and today he was indeed afraid of making things bigger. rushed to the old seed, but the old seed signaled that he didn't have to worry about it. He thought it was wrong, but he still rushed to act in such a play. Geng Nanzhong's attitude was like this, as early as expected. Yuwen Xuzhong's low-voiced appearance made him a little surprised.

Since it's unpredictable, just don't think about it. Anyway, follow the steps agreed upon step by step. I saluted and wanted to leave. Yuwen Xuzhong said again slowly: "Brother Xiyan, that Xiao Xuanzan is outside, can he really hold everything in his hands?" In case something happens, when Brother Xiyan and the old breed get along, how will they deal with themselves? ”

One sentence was not enough, Yuwen continued to say it in a hurry, and every sentence was hammered into Yao Gu's heart: "The Western Army does not come out, so calculated, it is Xiao Xuanzan who recovers Yanjing, and it is Xiao Xuanzan who finally quells the chaos, the Western Army does not gain much, it is a pity Brother Xiyan, after this chaos, Tong Xuanshuai's position is inevitably unstable, and the Western Army can see the importance of the Great Song Dynasty and Bianliang clearly." The Western Army is rich and noble, and stability is the top, so why bother ............"

Yao Gumeng raised his head: "Why bother? ”

Yuwen snorted a haha, and didn't talk about this topic, but continued to persuade Yao Gu in a serious tone: "The matter in Yandi is already like this, it's better for everyone to take a step back and step down." Wouldn't it be good for Tong Xuanshuai and the old breed to return to the country hand in hand, and the Western Army changed its commander and continued to protect most of it? The student said something that was not presumptuous, this time it was successful, next time Xiao Xuanzan made any more trouble, will the Western Army still follow? The state has its own system, is this kind of move a long-term success? ”

Yao Gu was already oozing cold sweat on his back, and this Yuwen Xuan was already clear. They are planning, and Yuwen is already in the heart. Even the plate was opened, they have already shown strength, and the Western Army can be guaranteed. The change of commander means to help him Yao Gu ascend to the throne. The old seed stepped down and covered the face of the court. In Yao Gu's opinion, such conditions are not bad, when did Wenchen give in to Wuchen like this? But now that he is the host of the old race, how could he betray the old race

Yao Gu also had a vague feeling, although everyone was acting hard this time. But now it seems that the current affairs of the Great Song Dynasty are different from the past. A Yanyun battle was fought, affecting the Bianliang Dynasty. It turned out that the monolithic suppression of the military ministers had been loosened. However, Wenchen's hundred-year suppression of Wuchen is still there, and it is almost over here......... Could it really be that he has been tied up with Xiao Yan all the time, allowing him to use the Western Army to betray the thunder and lightning in the Great Song Dynasty?

Yao Gu pressed this thought into his heart, raised his head and sneered: "Lord Yuwen, there is no need to say more. The old man is the commander of the Western Army, and I only obey orders. Nothing can be done without the old breed............ My lord, I will restrain the soldiers to return to the camp, and I also ask the adults to urge the food and pay to reward them."

He turned around and wanted to go, when the sound of horses' hooves sounded again, and several horsemen came galloping. It wasn't until he came to him that he turned over and dismounted, and saluted Yao Gu: "Yao Xianggong, the old Xianggong is called, and there is an urgent military affairs to discuss."

Yao Gu was stunned for a moment, and motioned to ride in a low voice. beckoned his subordinates to lead the horse over, but Yuwen Xuzhong behind him smiled at this time: "Xiyan, isn't this change happening?" How long do you have to go all the way with that Xiao Yan?"

In Yu Wenxu's leisurely words, Yao Gutie turned over his horse with a blue face and galloped away. And Yuwen Xuzhong stood at the gate of Xingyuan, looking north, where dark clouds were piling up, and it seemed that an early spring rainstorm was brewing. The wind suddenly became stronger, blowing the two white cloth flags in front of him.
