Chapter 7 Three-way game

The old breed is also in the dilapidated Yanjing City.

For the old Yao Gu, Yang Keshi and other important generals of the Western Army, Xiao Yan did not dare to let them live in the dense camps outside Yanjing City, no matter how much he pretended to be domineering.

The Western Army said that they did not secretly hold their breath for Xiao Yan's actions, which was false. The old kind of line here, the Western Army used a lot of manpower and materials, and it was also the looting of the Manyan City, the dilapidated mansion of the former Liao who requisitioned the princes and nobles did not know which princes and nobles, and the renovation was more magnificent than Xiao Yan's government office, and even sent the four-box banner back to the Song Land to buy all kinds of furnishings, and even the servants in the line were transported from the Song Land The Western Army's family background is much thicker than Xiao Yan's, the foundation of this century-old Jiangmen Group, Xiao Yan can't catch up with the strength to eat milk.

However, the old man is really old, although the mansion is well renovated, and even the garden has been cleaned up. But it is rare for the old species to go around the mansion and take a few looks. The Western Army also went to the big camps all over the place, and they went around in the study and flower hall bedroom where the earth dragon was warm all day long, and they didn't come out to see people. After a while with Xiao Yan, he even said that there was a slight illness, and several members of the Western Army blocked the door for the old breed to see him several times, and no one knew whether the old breed was really sick or fake.

The old man is so calm, but the generals of the Western Army can't hold his breath. The news from Bianliang is very bad, Tong Guanyi got such an opportunity to relieve his breath, and he was going to clean up Yanjing's side with his backhand. Although it is mainly aimed at Xiao Yan's force, who knows if it will implicate the Western Army, and if so, how deep is this implication!

Now how the Western Army will behave, it must come up with a definite idea. is the death report Xiao Yan deleted in the end - it is equivalent to Xiao Yan in the end, and Tong Guan and Tong Guan have a fight with their faces. Or simply sold Xiao Yan backhand and got out of this turmoil. There must be an explanation, although it is the old breed of the minister who takes the idea in the Western Army, but the generals' families are all in the Western Army, and the old breed must listen to everyone's meaning!

Not to mention, Lao Chong retired from everyone that day and discussed with Xiao Yan for a long time. When he came out, he excused himself and saw no one in his own way. Everyone is also concerned about what the old breed is discussing with Xiao Yan!

In the past few days, everyone couldn't find the old species, so they found Yao Gu. In Yao Guxing, they discussed it several times. The opinions of the generals are still abandoned, and Xiao Yan is the majority. Although the Western Army is a century-old Jiangmen group, it is also a habit of rectifying and suppressing Dr. Wenchen back and forth for a hundred years. If Bianliang wants to rectify Xiao Yan, it is impossible to be so mad that even the Western Army will clean it up, who will be expected to fight at that time? As long as everyone takes a firm stance and sells Xiao Yan thoroughly, it will finally be a merit to this scholar. There is no hope for the revenge of Yantou, and the merits of the assistant are estimated to still be unable to run, even if there is a Liushu Yanyun, the other horses almost still have the hope of returning home.

If you follow Xiao Yan to the end, you will hold on. After all, Bianliang's husband is not on the stage, who knows the fate of the Western Army, and it will be Yihu Di!

With such a consensus, as well as the request of the Western Army Jiangmen Group, Yao Gu once again found the old man's business, and this time Yao Gu's attitude was much more resolute. The door government continued to say that the old breed minister was sick, Yao Gu sat at the door of the old breed minister's office, and the guards all got off the horse and waited, dozens of people stood silently at the gate of the line, not waiting for the old breed to meet, this time Yao Gu will never stop!

I'm gorgeous dividing line*************************

"Xiyan, why are you doing this? The old man was seriously ill and was about to go to the table, so he resigned from his current position and returned to his hometown to recuperate. Yan Yun decided that he had taken away the hundred-year wish of a certain Song Wuchen. As a general of the Great Song Dynasty, he can actually sit in Yanjing City. So far, what do you want? “

Yao Gu was outside the line and didn't wait long, so Lao Chong sent someone to lead him in until Lao Chong's study. As soon as I entered the study, I saw the old man leaning on a hu bed with a tired face, and on the side of the hu bed, there were a few books scattered on it, with dense circles on it, and the handwriting was still fresh, which seemed to be the result of calming down and reading carefully in the past few days. Yao Gu was originally angry in his heart, the future of the Western Army is unpredictable, and the wind and clouds are rolling in the north, the old breed is still thinking about reading books?

However, looking at the old man with a thick fur, his aging body appeared smaller, and he didn't even seem to have the strength to get up. Yao Gu's heart softened again, and he saluted the old seed silently. The old man raised his hand slightly and motioned for Yao Gu to sit down, and said such a sentence as soon as he opened his mouth!

Yao Gu stood up again for a moment: "Old breed Xianggong, why do you say this?" Two years ago, the Xihua Fourth Road of the Western Army came out of Shaanxi, and now the Huanqing Army has been wiped out all the way, and we have many losses on these three roads, and there are more than 100,000 Western Army sons and daughters that day, and now there are only half left! After two years away, the future is unpredictable, and there is no old breed to sit in the middle, who do we expect to go? ”

This sentence is indeed Yao Gu's heart, the generals of the Western Army, who is not the old breed who grew up and was promoted one hand at a time? The generals of the Western Army are really about the same, they are all generations of generals, and the Western Army also has its own forces. Who can serve whom? It's the younger brother of the old race, the younger brother of the old race, and his temperament is much more proud and cold than the old race, and he has been in charge of the road at most for many years, and he wants to take over the position of the old race, and he is not necessarily convinced by everyone. Not to mention Yao Gu himself!

In the past, this was nothing, but what is the current situation, how can you stand up to the old seed and leave it alone?

Regardless of whether Lao Chong's words were true or false, Yao Gu was a little anxious. Standing there looking at the old breed, his face turned red, and he couldn't wait to exchange his body with the old breed, and he also came back with a breeder who was heroic in the west that day and could ride a bad horse and open a hard bow!

The old man smiled faintly, raised his head slightly, looked back, and gestured to himself: "Xiyan, look, can I still make this body?" If you are next to each other here, it will be a short-lived end, and when you return to your hometown, you may be able to endure for a few more days. You don't want me to die in the north, and a handful of bones will have to be coiled for thousands of miles before I can return home? “

Yao Gu's face turned even redder, and he only held back one sentence for a while: "Old breeder, you are willing to go to the Western Army?" ”

The old man smiled coldly, and there seemed to be no attachment to the Western Army in his eyes: "What use can I use now?" Since the Northern Expedition, you said that you wanted to give birth to the Huanqing Army, and a certain one was born. There is very little support for the Huanqing army, and in a few big battles, there are no two or three in the ten of Huanqing Erlang. You said that you avoided Yanjing far away, and let Liu Yanqing and Xiao Yan fight to the death, and a certain will follow everyone's meaning. As a result, Yanjing was taken by Xiao Yan, if Yanjing was taken by a certain level, based on the Western Army, do you still need to use these thoughts to protect yourself? Since the Northern Expedition, because I thought that everyone was far away, why did I follow everyone's wishes and bring back the Western Army, where did I get any ideas? Aren't you very good at your idea? Without a certain old man, what are you afraid of? “

The old man was short of breath when he spoke, and he spoke very slowly, and Yao Gu listened to it next to him, and his face turned red and blue, and green and red. For half a day, there was no sound

Since the Northern Expedition, most of the old people have indeed followed their will, they are the people who actually lead the troops underneath, they are not willing to fight, what is the way of the old species? But now, in dealing with Bianliang, the identity of the old species is a huge umbrella, and it is also the only person who pinchs the Western Army into a whole, how can he be separated from the old species at this time?

Lao Chong gestured slightly to the desk not far from Hu's bed, on which there were a few book slips, dripping with ink, with many smear marks, I don't know what manuscript was being raised.

“…… This is the manuscript of a certain illness, and I have been working on this for the past few days, and I can't finish it. I can't bear the Western Army! But I had to leave it behind............ Since you can't do anything, and you're still there to be an eyesore, if you don't ask for retreat, what else can you do? You don't want to fight to the death, and you want to be famous and rich, but you really can't do anything............ The Western Army should also be your Western Army, what am I mixing up with an old man in my teens? Shidao probably doesn't want to take this step back, I won't be there in the future, everyone is thinking of the old face of a certain person, he is more arrogant, everyone takes one more step, that is, it is ............ Anyway, we will return our two white-haired old men to a good death............"

The old man said emotionally, and his tone was a little embarrassed. Yao Gu couldn't hear it anymore, so he knelt down straight and straight: "Old breed Xianggong, do you want all the generals of the Western Army to kneel and die in front of you?" We are ashamed that the Western Army is so strong that it is not embarrassing or embarrassing to be in such a situation now, just like children who have made a disaster, they always have to grow up to clean up and make up for it. But I ask the old breed to look at the face of tens of thousands of children in Yandi in the Western Army, and stop saying such things again! The old breed is fair but has measures, how dare we disobey? Whoever dares to mumble something again, I'll be the first to clean him up! ”

The old man was silent, watching Yao Gu kneel there and reply loudly. I can't wait to take out my heart and liver. After a short silence, the old seed said lightly: "............ Xi Yan, originally you asked to see you today, what kind of plan are you discussing? ”

Yao Gu hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and saying: "Our little calculation is nothing more than abandoning Xiao Yan and simply standing together with Xuan Shuai again!" Tong Xuanshuai also knew that this person was fierce and fierce, and he had a lot of means, and the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army was not weak now. In the land of Yanyun, I also got a geographical advantage - there must be a lot of borrowing from our Western Army! As long as you negotiate the step code with Bianliang, you can't flip the face again............ Maybe most of them will return home! The roots of our Western Army are in Shaanxi Zhulu, and if we leave Shaanxi, we really can't exert our strength, and if we continue like this, maybe we will toss it out! ”

After hearing this, the old man smiled, raised his hand towards Yao Gu, and motioned for him to get up and sit down. On the Hu bed, the old man also sat up straight: "Then our Western Army will have the reputation of a three-surnamed domestic slave............ After such a repetition, who would dare to really trust a certain Western army? Sitting on a strong army, but repeatedly without compensation, you can stand in which faction in the DPRK and China at any time, in this case, it is better to simply divide and disintegrate our western army to the end, this is the peace of mind............ If Xiao Yan is abandoned, how long can a certain wait last? “

Yao Gu smiled bitterly: "The old breed is a father, so what can it be?" The dynasty has been controlling the military with literature for more than 100 years, can we still do it? When the western thieves were strong, we had to use them, and no one dared to weaken them lightly. Now that the western thieves are weak, we are worthless, and when we are transferred out of our hometown, we look at it and half of it is gone! As long as we can go back to our hometown, we have been operating in Shaanxi for a hundred years, and we can always have some means to deal with it, which is better than not being up or down like now! ,、

The old man looked far away, and only said one sentence in a low voice: "There is no Western Thief, and there is ............ Eastern Thief."

Yao Gu was shocked and looked at the old seed. The old man also met his gaze and asked in a low voice, "Xi Yan, what do you think of Fang today?" ”

Yao Gu groaned for a moment and replied briskly: "It's not a look!" In the court, this is just the case, the party struggle is fierce, and our military ministers are terrified when they look at it! The court was short of money, and the Northern Expedition couldn't get any money, so it had to set up a name and loot it again in the hands of the people. Shengsheng forced Fang La, and we had to sweep in the south of the Yangtze River before the Northern Expedition. It turns out that there are always hundreds of thousands of military horses in the Great Song Dynasty, and now Hebei needless to say, the Hebei army has long been destroyed, and the forbidden army has always been a joke in the past few decades, look at the 20,000 forbidden troops brought out by Xiao Cai Xianggong from Bianliang! The Northern Expedition has come to Hejian Mansion, even if they are at the end of the Northern Expedition, they dare not take half a step forward to the north! The only ones who can fight are our Western Army, but they have also been greatly injured by the toss............ No one did anything serious, but they were still talking about Feng Hengyu people............ For more than 100 years, the country has never reached such a point! No matter how it was back then, there were still some famous ministers, who are still the same now? ”

Da Song is like this, who can not complain. In front of the old seed, Yao Gu didn't have any scruples, and after speaking bluntly, he shook his head and sighed: "............ But that's how things are in the world. If we don't succeed, neither will the Liao Kingdom and the Western Thieves. I can always endure it............ What the future holds, and wait and see what ............ come,

The old man shook his head slowly: "Xiyan, the world is going to be in chaos............ I can smell it............ I'm afraid this time it's not a story of the Yuanyuan, but I'm afraid that there will be a disaster of the death of the society............"

"Dead Society!" The old man smiled bitterly: "With the prosperity of the founding of the country on the day of our Great Song Dynasty, there are still hundreds of thousands of strong soldiers and how many ministers and generals. With the power of the Liao State, he was still able to go deep into Hebei and forge an alliance under the city in Lanyuan. Now the Jurchen is sharp, and it is better than when the Liao soldiers were at their peak. And our great Song Dynasty fortune, compared to the Zhenzong Dynasty, has already fallen to the bottom! Although Yan Yun is decided, it is really a fluke. But no one in the court cares about Yan Yun, no one cares about Jurchen, but they are eager to weaken and suppress our military ministers! With such a dilapidated situation, once the Jurchens go south, who can stop them? The hearts of the people are scattered, how can they come to the army of the king? If there are no important ministers in the court, who can clean up people's hearts? When the Jurchen soldiers and horses arrived in Bianliang, the disaster of the society was just around the corner! “

Yao Gu also knew that the Jurchen soldiers were strong, and Xiao Yan and others forced back the commanders of the 20,000 Liao army with 400 men and horses, and led the Shengjie army and the Baiqi soldiers to heyday the cavalry, and it took a lot of effort to fight more than 1,000 Jurchen godsons. The generals of the Western Army know it in their hearts, after all, they are all people who have fought in battle. The Jurchens can now use soldiers and horses, and there are always less than 50,000, and the Great Song Dynasty really has no capital to resist! Everyone deliberately didn't think about it, and now that the old breed solemnly mentioned it, he could only silently approve it.

Regardless of whether it does not come to the point of being able to destroy the society, once the Jurchens go south, it is enough to beat the roads of the Great Song River and the north and east of the river to pieces. Bianliang was originally only convenient for Cao Yun, but it was not conducive to guarding, and it was possible to move the capital at that time. Once the court is broadcast, it will be a scene of troubled times, and who knows what will become of this world!

Yao Gu seemed to vaguely grasp the meaning of the old species, but the Great Song Dynasty Wuchen was suppressed by Wenchen for a hundred years, and it has become a habit to be cautious. The old kind of calculation is really a bit rebellious! He hesitated and said: "Old breed, what does this have to do with the situation we are facing now?" As for what means we use to deal with the Bianliang turmoil, what are your plans? “

The old man's demeanor looked a little more tired than just now, and he shook his head slowly: "The current turmoil is a trivial matter compared to the danger that will only be a few years away at most............ But in troubled times, strength comes first. Say no matter what you want to do to protect the Western Army! Can't let them clean up Xiao Yan and then free up their hands to slowly clean up something! Now that the Bianliang Dynasty is in the court, is it really qualified to suppress so many of our military horses in the end? The Great Song Dynasty is so big in the world, where can I find a force that can compete with the current army and horses in Yanyunzuo? They can use means, but it is nothing more than food and salary control............ But once we show an unstable appearance, we are afraid that it is they who are even more afraid! ”

Lao Chong's words made Yao Gu stunned. The old man's move is to carry out the story of the five generations, support the army and the town to be arrogant, and hold the court hostage! For the Great Song Dynasty Wuchen, who has been accustomed to bowing his head to his ears for more than a hundred years, this is really too rebellious an idea!

For a while, Yao Gu wanted to stand up and rush out from the old seed, never to listen to the old god continue!

But after all, the old species has accumulated too much power, and it has always been far-sighted and convincing. In the history before Xiao Yan crossed, the gate lord of the Western Army was originally formed in the hands of the old species, if it were not for the Jurchen invasion, the old species would have passed away, and the replacement of the small species would have died in Hedong. If the Great Song Dynasty continues to go on like this, God knows if the matter of the feudal town will first appear in Zhulu in Shaanxi!

Yao Gu pondered carefully, the situation in the Great Song Dynasty was erosive, the strength was weak, and the danger of Yanyun's border preparedness, but because of the party struggle in the court, he was still desperately trying to weaken this only remaining strength. Maybe the scourge of the old seed that died of the society is really in the eyes............ So in the troubled times, the most reliable thing is the strength in your hands, even if you take some risks, you have to desperately save it!

As if seeing the hesitation in Yao Gu's chest, the old man smiled and whispered beside him: "............ We have been receiving the grace of the Great Song Dynasty for a hundred years, and we are doing this to preserve our strength at this moment, for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty............ If Wenchen doesn't make it, let's come by ourselves! When the time comes, once there is the disaster of the death of the society, it is not us who will contribute? In one fell swoop, we may be able to save the decadence of our military ministers for more than a hundred years, and then one side will have the upper hand on the other, so that the Han family and the Great Song Dynasty will continue for thousands of generations! “

I have to say that Lao Chong's words immediately alleviated a lot of worries in Yao Gu's chest. Once something has a righteous name, it will be very easy to explain to yourself. If this Great Song Dynasty really dies, the disaster of Sheji will be in the near future............ It's not a big deal to endure these few years............ What's more important is that maybe everyone will be able to turn over from now on.

For more than 100 years, Wenchen suppressed the warriors, saying that there was no resentment, but that was false. The longer you accumulate, the more intense it explodes. In Xiao Yan's time, the Ming Dynasty hundreds of years after the Great Song Dynasty was also suppressed by Wenchen for more than 100 years. At the end of the world, the outbreak of this military minister was also doubly violent. There were signs in the early years of Chongzhen, and the later it was, the more the military ministers preached their own strength. And Wenchen also looked up to Wuchen more and more.

At this time, the same is true of the Great Song Dynasty. If you don't practice martial arts, who doesn't want to really be in power and don't have to look at each other's faces? There is no need to be cautious about doing things under the dense system of constraints of the bureaucratic system of scholars and scholars, and you are afraid that you will be blamed if you move. The Great Song Dynasty didn't kill the scholars, but he didn't wait for the military ministers! The war was lost, and the civilian officials were transferred to their posts, but the generals who fought to the death in the front and rolled out of the dead were a big list! The temptation given by the old species, Yao Gu was really reluctant!

However, this qiē is based on the correct judgment of the current situation of the old species, and in a few years, the world will be in chaos!

I'm gorgeous dividing line*************************

In the study, Yao Gu didn't know how long he was silent before he said in a trembling voice: "Old Breed Minister, what should we do?" “

The old man smiled lightly: "Didn't it fall on Xiao Yan?" He will never be willing to give up the strength in his hands. This is also the foundation of his life! All we have to do is stand on his side, cooperate with him, take him as the leader, and make a scene! Xiao Yan succeeded, this court needs our Western Army to contain him more and more, and the strength of the Western Army can be preserved. Xiao Yan can't succeed, he is the leader, and we are responsible, but we will continue to be divided and suppressed............ Are we less divided and suppressed? Further, the sea and the sky are broad, and taking a step back is nothing more than the situation when Tong Xuanshuai and Liu Yanqing were in the Northern Expedition, such a favorable thing, why did we still sell Xiao Yan to the Bianliang people in the backhand? "After all, the old breed is a veteran and important minister, and this Ligai division is very clear. Looking back, the calculations of the generals of the Western Army are inevitably too weak.

Yao Gu was already moved when he heard it, but he couldn't make up his mind while gritting his teeth.

The old man added quietly: "Xiyan, if it weren't for Xiao Yan's son, he would have fought to the death against the Liao and Jurchen people." When we were still learning from the infighting, he disregarded his own life and went north to Gubeikou to face the Jurchens, and did not let the Jurchens step into the old land of our Han family. When you fight with the Jurchens on the battlefield in the future, do you hope that Xiao Yan or Tong Guan will be around you? ”

When this sentence came out, Yao Gu slapped his thigh fiercely: "It's done!" In the future, I will face the enemy with the Jurchen Dazi, and Xiao Yan will be on the side, so that I can move forward without any worries! This is also for the sake of the Great Song Society! ”

After speaking, he looked at the old seed: "The old breed is a prince, I will naturally say that the generals of the Xihe Army will say it, but I can't be moved by the thoughts of the other generals............"

The old man smiled, raised his arm and waved away the fox fur on his body, stood up from the Hu bed, and his spirit seemed to be Baidu Song Shigui Paste Bar Thirteen Hands Writing the First Paste Bar Mighty returned to the withered body, raised his arms and drove people out: "Go, go!" Let's give the old man a front stop first. This is the head and end of a certain family, and a certain self will go to the school to review the generals and let them obey orders! This is also for the sake of our Great Song Dynasty and the Western Army's future century-old foundation! ”

The confident and energetic appearance of the old seed has not been seen by Yao Gu for a long time. As soon as he was full of energy, Yao Gu became a lot more confident. After all, for decades, the old race has been the backbone of the Western Army! He bowed proudly to the old man and strode out. The old man smiled and sent him out of the study, his steps were brisk, not at all like a dying old man in his seventies.

Send Yao Gu away, and wait for the return to the study. The spirit just now all dissipated at once, and compared to when he saw Yao Gu, the old race looked twice as weak and tired.

He slowly sat down at the desk, spread out a book, and was about to write something when he picked up the pen, but found that the inkstone had long since dried up. The old man clapped his hands gently, and the little guy who was waiting outside the study came in to grind the ink. The old man sat in front of the desk, looking up at his forehead, and just sighed in his heart.

"Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan, a certain bet on the future history of fame, as well as the foundation of the Western Army, finally said that the generals will accompany you to gamble on such a game, I hope you don't make a mistake for a certain one. In the future, when the society is about to die, you can return to heaven with one hand! ”
