In the sixth year of Xuanhe of the Great Song Dynasty, February 11.

In the alley on the right side of Tangming Street, Taiyuan Mansion, Hedong Road, a small wine shop is full of seats.

At this moment, in the city of Taiyuan, there is no trace of the riot of the previous month. The people of the city are still living as usual. Those who fled from the border areas also settled down with relatives and friends. Even if there are no relatives and friends, Yangqu County has also set up a lot of temples and temples, sheltered refugees, and distributed firewood, rice, sauce and vinegar every day, as well as a mouthful of beans and vegetables every day.

In addition to the people who fled from the Great Song Dynasty, there were also many refugees from the north who fled from the states of Yunnei and came to Taiyuan Prefecture by relying on the Shenwu Changsheng Army. Speaking of which, the states of Yunnei are now also under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty. It is still different from the people who fled from Daizhou and other places.

These thousands of refugees erected tents, took out their nests, and laid them out neatly under the supervision of the Shenwu Changsheng Army, just like in the army. The refugees live in dependence, and every day Sima of the Shenwu Changsheng Army distributes grain, rice, firewood, and charcoal.

Among them, they can be strong or organized to repair the houses that were destroyed in the chaos, reinforce the Taiyuan city wall, and receive a few clerks' food money, buy some sauces and vegetables, add some flavor to the porridge and rice in the refugee camp that are only barely full, and add some rags to cover the cold for the families who fled all the way.

Or it is selected for the Shenwu Changsheng Army, and now in Taiyuan Fucheng, the Shenwu Changsheng Army has established seven or eight new battalion heads, with all the generals and chiefs. In these cold and snowy places, the strength that has struggled out in the chaos of several years of war is not the one who is physically strong, can endure hardships, or even have faced real battles of varying scales.

These seven or eight battalions are all fully formed, plus such a good source of soldiers. It is equivalent to the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army, and more than 3,000 troops have come out! As long as the equipment is complete, and then the battle formation is taught by a good winter, and the powerful generals drawn from the Shenwu Victory Army are quite good for the Great Song Dynasty.

In the past, the Shenwu Changsheng Army expanded the military horses without authorization, and it was naturally fearful of the upper and lower levels. I don't know how much to fly to Bianliang on Hedong Road. And the princes of the court and the central government will also be like a great enemy, and immediately deal with the Shenwu Changsheng army.

But now, Hedong's pacification system made Wu Min accept Han Shizhong wholeheartedly. And the generals of the forbidden army stationed on Hedong Road were even more respectful in front of Han Shizhong. Even if you have entered, she still refuses to succumb to the obscenity of this military minister, and wants to tell Bianliang what kind of trickery, counting on the center of the court to clean up the military ministers. But the day before yesterday, the news of Bianliang came, and the civil and military forces on Hedong Road were all silent, and they had already shown their favor in front of Han Shizhong as soon as possible.

Bianliang was shocked, Zhao Ji abdicated as Taishang, and Xiao Yan supported Zhao Kai as the new monarch. The backer behind the Shenwu Changsheng Army has already led the privy council, and he will be Emperor Shang Ji and named the king of Yanjun, and the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition!

No one expected that such a shocking change would happen in Bianliang, and Xiao Yan would be able to come to such a position! This son from the south, in just a few years, has soared. There is a strong army inside. Such a method has been seen in the Song Dynasty for more than 100 years!

At this point, Xiao Yan is already a pivotal piece in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and he is also in an advantageous position. The possibilities are endless. Even if I don't know what sinister storms will occur in the future, if I want to achieve great success and get a great position, I don't want to take any risks, and I go home early to be a country leader.

Hedong Road was originally a bordering place, and the folk customs and even the entry of officials here were more fierce than Bianliang. No matter how Bianliang is, at least the Shenwu Changsheng Army still maintains such a strong military strength, and there is a deep-rooted and unshakable situation on the Hedong Road, and there is no shortage of a Western Army like the Shaanxi Fourth Road. But all those whose family business is on Hedong Road are running around in Han Shizhong's government office at the moment, and there are still some scholars who failed in the court battle and were expelled to the border, and they also did Wu Min's things and wanted to bet on Xiao Yan's side. Cai Jing's side is already overcrowded, and if he can't go into the camp, why can't he find a new way? My own family is already reprimanded, no matter how bad it is, how bad can it be?

Han Shizhong sits in Taiyuan, as if he is the real pacification envoy of Hedong Road, and the town is very busy. In addition to the affairs of the army, he also had to accept this class, and was busy taking over the assets and facilities that originally belonged to the forbidden army stationed on Hedong Road, and truly operated Hedong Road as Xiao Yan's most stable base.

And the officers and soldiers of the Shenwu Changsheng Army, while they are busy, can be regarded as a little relieved. The Shenwu Victorious Army finally gained a firm foothold in this Great Song Dynasty, and the obstacles in the way forward were also cleared. What kind of status can be achieved in the future depends on how well everyone does under the command of King Xiao Jun!

Such a happy event, how can you not celebrate, how can you not congratulate? The Jurchen Tartars are still far away in Datong Mansion in Xijing, and there is still a Fuliao army in the middle. Winter is not the time to send out armies. Everyone has been nervous and busy for so long since they went north, and they can finally relax.

These days, in addition to being on duty in the army, there is also an errand that must not be slack. Han Shizhong also issued a ban, allowing the soldiers and soldiers who should not be sent to leave the camp in batches and dissipate in Taiyuan Mansion. However, before dusk, they must return to the camp. If there is a troublemaker, the army will patrol it, and the offender will be in his hands, and he shall not be spared.

In the past, business was deserted in winter, and after a chaos, the people in the city patronized fewer liquor shops and shops, etc., and suddenly ushered in a prosperous atmosphere, and merchants everywhere looked at the copper coins flowing in and handed over the banknotes, and smiled so much that they couldn't close their mouths.

Although these warriors who are always victorious in the army seem to be scared, what they will come out of is real money!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Niu Gao was dressed in a red robe, with a few guards, and entered this small wine shop with a horsewhip. As soon as I opened the numb curtain and entered, the heat rushed in.

How many soldiers are drinking red and red ears everywhere. From time to time, cheers rang out, shaking the beams of the house to dust.

"Congratulations to King Yan!"

Niu Gao swept his eyes and saw a ripe entry. It was Wu Min's two hundred and five pro-guard generals Qu Gai that day. The eldest man wore a soldier's robe, with an open collar, revealing black and oozing chest hair. He was gambling with several military men. It's just that the hands smell strange, and they often can't see a pure one. A few dollars and a dime of turbid wine, I don't know how many cups I drank, dripping and dripping, all over my chest.

Speaking of Qu Gai, the two hundred and five men, when it comes to crimes, although there are many reasons for the riots in Taiyuan Mansion, the main reason is that the news of the invasion that has not been seen for more than a hundred years is disturbing. But in this riot, he definitely did his best.

But standing in the position of the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army, it is meritorious. If it weren't for him, how could the Shenwu Changsheng Army easily enter Taiyuan Mansion, as if he was still a savior? To grasp the situation on Hedong Road, it takes less effort, and every qiē seems to be justified.

After thinking about it, Han Shizhong convicted him of a crime in the dispatch army. At the moment, it is assigned to the Shenwu Winning Army as a matching army. Naturally, there are no official assignments. Not even a regular army.

But Qu Gai didn't care, and he enjoyed himself everywhere. It's very comfortable. For a heartless and lungless fierce man like him, as long as his life is still there, he occasionally has wine and meat to eat, and he has no birds when he collapses.

In just a few days, I actually met a few fox friends and dogs, and I drank and enjoyed myself here.

Niu Gao and Qu Gai knew that Qu Gai was still captured by Niu Gao, and pleaded for him in front of Han Shizhong. After Qu Gai decided to argue that day, he also found Niu Gao and kowtowed a few times. patted his chest and promised, as long as Niu Gao gave an order, in the water and fire, he frowned at the big fool, and his own family went to castration to be his father-in-law!

Niu Gao shouted: "Qu Da fool! Do you drink well? ”

The soldiers who sat around and drank all raised their heads, and if it was other generals who came, everyone would have to come forward to salute with their hearts. It also has to be quieter. If Yue Fei came in person, it would be possible for them all to sneak away and go straight back to the camp. Niu Gao is a well-known straightforward soldier in the army, and he has always mingled with the soldiers, and there is no separation between wine and meat.

There is too little distance between the generals and the soldiers, so naturally it is not for the right way. Management constraints are going to be messed up. Therefore, with Niu Gao's background being so hard, he can't be promoted in the Shenwu Winning Army, and he is just a Han Shizhong general. His brothers have long been on their own.

These soldiers all got up in chaos when they saw Niu Gao: "General Niu, sit here!" Let's pay a good tribute to General Niu for a round and congratulate King Yan! ”

Niu Gao waved his hand: "Fill yourself, where does grandpa sit, you can use your bird tube?" With the amount of alcohol you drink, grandpa can't eat well. Fuck off! ”

While talking, he walked to Qu Gai's side, sat down with a golden knife, and said with a smile: "Qu Da fool, eat wine with you, and there are three points of taste, bring the big lamp!" ”

Qu Gai rolled his strange eyes and looked at Niu Gao: "Why didn't you come out to look for wine and eat when you weren't by the side of General Han?" Although I am in the end, I am not afraid of you! ”

Niu Gao snorted: "You guys can come out to play, I have to follow General Han to pinch his voice and deal with those big turbans?" I'm so angry! It's not a good thing for me to see that King Yan is now in such a position, how can I lead us to fight happily in Yandi? Like General Han, he was Zhang Zuozhi, and his voice was pinched when he saw the big turban. Kill the stuffy! ”

Qu Gai slapped his leg and praised: "That is, you are the master of the cow, and you have the most appetite for me!" According to me, King Yan came here to lead the Shenwu Changsheng army, and whoever refused to accept the fight was the one. Can you toss in Bianliang? Robbed the bird position, and it didn't go straight to anything, we are fighting men, who dares to say anything, although the knife and gun are collared! ”

Dazhan was sent up at this time, and Niu Gao went down in two or two bites, patting Qu Gai's shoulder. A like-minded look that won my heart.

The surrounding military men, their voices were lowered at this time. In the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army, only these two have such a salt sauce mouth. Originally, I wanted to go over to join in the fun and tie up the cow gao, but now I eat and drink silently, and return to the camp Qianjing early after eating early.

Niu Gao and Qu Gai drank two glasses and glanced at Qu Gai: "Bianliang sent an edict from King Yan, to pick five hundred into the Shenwu Changsheng Army, in order to fill the mink hat around King Yan, Qu is a big fool, you can not only fight, but also have qualifications, do you want me to recommend you to go up?" ”

The surrounding military men suddenly pricked up their ears.

King Yan has mink hats around him, but now he is the best step in the army, and he has experienced a lot of training in the meantime, and when he is released, he is the head of the team. Luckily, there were quite a few envoys to the commander of the first battalion.

However, King Yan chooses mink hats strictly, has ability, courage, and loyalty, needless to say. I have always had to fight a few times, and I have experience in battle.

However, this time the mink hat is five hundred, in case the ancestral tomb is smoking, can it be said that there will be a quota on their own head? Even if he is not released as a military general after a year or two, he will serve by King Yan's side every day, and from then on he will be King Yan's most confidant, and I am afraid that it will be no good in the future?

However, Niu Gao really dares to say that it is recommended to bend the cover into the mink hat. With the might of Qu Da Fool, I'm afraid even King Yan can be pitted. This guy is simply an auspicious person.

I don't know how Niu Gao and Qu Da fool looked at each other, is it because these two are salt sauces?

Niu Gao drank a lamp, and Qu Gai also drank a lamp, and he didn't give in at all. When I heard the three words mink hat, my head shook like a rattle.

“………… I've served the surname Wu, and the straight lady thief has no taste! It's still cool now, usually performing, and eating and drinking in your spare time. The Shenwu Changsheng Army does not owe us money for fighting and killing. When the battle came, the lord gave an order and rushed up to kill his mother. If I am strong, I will kill my opponent. The opponent is strong, and there is nothing to complain about if I die. I'm afraid to hold my eggs and wait for them to enter, I don't want to come to the second time! Take a walk on Hedong Road and lick the ditch of the big turban, which is considered unlucky! ”

If Wu Min heard Qu Gai's words that he considered unlucky, it is estimated that tears would have come down immediately. Lord Lu, you big fool, you are more than a hundred times stronger than Lu! Which of us is unlucky?

Niu Gao nodded, looking like he had not mistaken Qu Gai.

"Qu Da fool, you are now at ease as an auxiliary army. If you have to, I will wither you into the Korean general's personal guard army and become a regular army. When the time comes, I will fight under my hands, and I will not be able to bend you. ”

Qu Gai's argument is naturally impossible for the army. It was organized as an auxiliary army, cutting wood, feeding horses, driving chariots, maintaining armor and doing miscellaneous chores every day. I've been itching for a long time. The salaries of the auxiliary army are less than half of the regular army. Qu Gai has always had no savings in his hands, and it is difficult to get out of the camp, so he can only drink this village brew, and he can only swallow a thousand saliva when he sees that the army can still go to Wazi.

What kind of general, Qu Gai is not uncommon. can rush to the front for the main army to fight, but it satisfies his appetite. immediately slapped his chest loudly: "This life will be sold to the Zhijia!" When I was in battle, if I hadn't stood first, the old cow would have cut off my head and hung it at the door to ward off evil spirits! ”

The soldiers around him were silently crying. The cow will be the lord o the cow will be the lord, and you can't harm King Yan, and don't harm the Han general. Why do you have to stuff Qu Gai next to these big things............ When the two well-known salt sauce mouths in the army were talking about entering the port, they suddenly heard the sound of drums coming from the Han Shizhong Office in Tangming Street not far away.

At the beginning, it was faint, and the soldiers in the wine shop all looked up, thinking that they had heard evil ears. Then the drums beat one after another, straight to the bottom of each heart. The sound of the horn also sounded with a whimper.

Niu Gao stood up suddenly: "General Han gathers the general!" ”

All the soldiers in the wine shop also got up, and the tables and chairs rattled into a loud noise. They all rushed out the door. The military orders of the Shenwu Changsheng Army are strict, and it is the most in the Great Song Army. If the generals do not arrive, they will not be spared! Known as the strongest army in the Great Song Dynasty, in the meantime, it has its own pride, but it must also obey this awe-inspiring and fierce military order!

The owner of the liquor shop came out of the back kitchen with a dirty oil list, and he didn't dare to speak. Niu Gao raised his hand and threw away the money bag: "I will do it!" ”

Then he strode out with a few relatives, and the soldiers around him were staggered. Qu Gai also followed quickly, and asked happily: "Is there a fight?" ”

Niu Gao scolded viciously: "Straight lady thief, I'm afraid there is no fighting!" ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Taiyuan City, I don't know how many soldiers and soldiers poured out all of a sudden, those with horses rode horses, and those without horses galloped. or run to Han Shizhong's office, or return to the camp. Han Shizhong, a famous helmet with a feather in his guard, rushed around and ordered loudly: "Gather the main generals, and all the troops return to the camp!" If you enter by mistake, you will not be spared! ”

The officers and soldiers of the Shenwu Ever-Victorious Army, no matter how they drank and had fun in the market before. At this time, they all showed their true colors of being a strong army. They all ran silently in all directions with their heads shut. I don't know how much money came out of various places, converging into torrents and surging in the city of Taiyuan.

In the blink of an eye, the footsteps changed from a mess to a neat roar. The earthquake made Taiyuan City seem to tremble.

With such a strong army, even if the enemy is quietly approaching the front, it seems that it can be gathered with a single order. Armor and soldiers, the array is perfect, and then wave after wave is neatly surging towards the opponent no matter what it is!

Taiyuan Mansion entered the city, and they all looked at the sudden occurrence in front of them in horror.

The power of a strong army, in an inadvertent place, is enough to deter the heart.

King Yan of Bianliang has a young son inside and a strong army outside. Is this really going to change?

Han Shizhong's government gathered the golden drum was still ringing in a low voice, and when he entered the Taiyuan Mansion City, he didn't think much about what kind of changes had happened.

The Shenwu Victorious Army is such a strong army, no matter what kind of enemy it is, what is there to fear?

In a short period of time, Niu Gao had already rushed into the festival hall of Han Shizhong's government office, and he was completely armored. In the festival hall, according to the status of the army, it is already full of generals who are at the right age and fierce in the Shenwu Victorious Army. Just looking at this general, I don't know how much stronger than the generals in the other armies of the Great Song Dynasty, who are mixed with the old and weak, and the twilight breeds.

In the middle of the festival, the sound of the collision of the nail leaves was heard. Each general clung to his sword at his waist. looked at each other and guessed what was going on, which caused Han Shizhong to suddenly gather.

Even though there are thousands of speculations in my heart, I don't say a word. Even the mouth of the salt sauce like Niu Gao is tightly closed at the moment. The generals from outside also hurried to return to their shifts.

The drum beat of the juju was less than three moments before it stopped. And in the festival hall, it is already full. Only a heavy wheezing sound was heard. In the end, the wheezing sound calmed down, and only the sound of metal striking lightly against the armor leaves could be heard.

The fierce spirit of slaughter was born spontaneously in this group of generals who were waiting silently.

A flag officer of the Chinese army went out first according to the order of holding a sword, and his eyes swept around the generals. See if there is any mistake. Then he said loudly: "Welcome Han and Wu to appease!" ”

All the generals pressed their swords and bowed: "Greetings to General Han, greeting Wu Anfu!" ”

After the festival, Han Shizhong wore a military uniform and walked out side by side with Wu Min. The flag officer of the Chinese army stepped forward to hand over the order: "Gather the generals at three moments, command the above envoys, none of them enter the wrong place, and none of them will not enter!" ”

Han Shizhong nodded with a calm face and glanced at Wu Min beside him. Wu Min smiled faintly: "This is a military matter, but please ask General Han to give orders." ”

Great Song Wenchen, when did he think that military affairs should be a matter for military ministers. Only in front of the Shenwu Changsheng Army, in front of Xiao Yan, these tiger and wolf warriors, did they dare not interfere!

Han Shizhong walked to the top, glanced at the generals, and said in a deep voice: "Get up!" ”

All the generals raised their heads, and countless eyes focused on Han Shizhong's face.

Han Shizhong walked a few steps and stood still, and said coldly: "The new monarch is on the throne, and King Yan assists." When the dynasty is in the middle of its prosperity, the Jurchen Tartars of the straight lady thief come to make trouble! News came from the north that thousands of Jurchen military horses had climbed over the dangerous terrain in winter and penetrated deep into the clouds, and there was a situation of approaching the three passes. Prisoners, the Jurchen Tartars are finally here! ”

The generals all held their breath for a moment.

The Jurchen Tartars actually sent troops in winter and went south in a big way! Now it is the time when King Yan ascends the throne, whether it is in the middle of the court or in Hedong, it is necessary to stabilize dìng, so that King Yan can stabilize before he reaches the throne, but it has ushered in such a great enemy! Once these Jurchen Tartars are allowed to enter Hedong, how big of a variable will it be for the cause of King Yan? For the Shenwu Ever-Winning Army, how variable?

Straight lady thief, the Jurchen Tartar will not come soon, but this time comes!

Han Shizhong glanced at the solemn expressions of the generals, grinned and sneered: "What else is there to think about?" It's nothing more than one thing, kill the Tartars! As long as you win, nothing is a problem! ”
