And the drums beat in the camp, and they went straight into the tent.

As the rain subsided, the temperature rose a little, steaming the mud on the ground, and the small tent was filled with a foul smell.

Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on a Hu bed, took off his boots, and buried himself in the paperwork sent to him.

When he was in Bianliang, although Xiao Yan, a son from the south, did not have any poetry and wine, he could pass through the imperial capital Tianque, his eyebrows were handsome and handsome, his body was straight, and the Yan Wang Shu on his waist had brought a wave of wind in Bianliang. also has a bit of the temperament of a turbid son.

The people in Bianliang, although they all look down on Xiao Yannan's identity, secretly admit that this guy has a good skin that is not evil.

But at this moment, Xiao Yan regained his appearance when he was in Yandi, as tough and rough as the generals who often came to the front. The white hair on his temples added a bit of majesty to him. The light of the oil lamp flickered, magnifying the shadow cast on his tent several times, and it was as thick as a mountain.

This small white-collar worker a few years ago, looking back at the moment, has a vague atmosphere.

The military intelligence documents were transferred from Taiyuan, and now Taiyuan is jointly controlled by Zong Ze and Zhang Xian. Most of the Divine Guard Army was already under the command of Yue Fei on the front line, and the rest of the thousands of men and horses were led by Zhang Xian to sit in Taiyuan and supervise the Zhao royal family.

And Zong Ze took over a copy of the official documents, including the arrival of Bianliang and the arrival of the general of the Hebei presiding side, and after adding the summary, he sent it to Xiao Yan in an urgent manner. Then turn Xiao Yan's instructions back. Those involved in the government were sent back in the name of Taiyuan Xing, and those involved in military affairs were sent in the name of Xifu under Xiao Yan's control.

Although in front of the enemy. But it is still necessary to maintain the operation of the DPRK situation and the conduct of the war.

The official document sent this time was a report document sent by the Hebei side.

Under the city of Yizhou. dragged most of the Jurchen East Route Army. Yu Jiang led the Tianwu army along the northern edge of the river, and the main force was assembled in the Xiongzhou area, ready to respond to the battle of Yizhou at any time. Ma Kuo, on the other hand, deployed the Daimyo's Mansion as the center of defense, as the second line of defense, covering the defense of the Yellow River.

The situation in Hebei is much worse than the worst situation imaginable. But Xiao Yan was still receiving the report, holding the document in one hand. While comparing the wooden map, he carefully checked the layout of the military forces of the two sides in Hebei for a long time. After a long time of planning. before making an approval.

“………… Yizhou contributed to the sergeants, all of whom moved twice to reward meritorious service. And with the back road transfer to make the division raise 200,000 yuan to be rewarded, the back road transfer to make the division insufficient, then the Yan King shogunate head Shi Zuojun let it. Daimyofu Defense. You can let go of the charge, don't do remote system. On the edge of Hebei, since the accumulation of troops to support the Yizhou war, the rest of the places will inevitably be widespread. When Yu Guofan tried his best to recruit the village soldiers, the bow and arrow club was strong, etc., to strengthen the defense line. At this moment, the situation is not very urgent, but the autumn is worried. Since the beginning of summer this year, the weather has not been very hot, and there has been a lot of rain. Visiting the old farmers in the north, the ice age is likely to be before the autumn is approaching. At that time, the weather was cold and hard, and the river was frozen. Then the Jurchen Hu rode and galloped. The generals will be reluctant, so that this king will march north ............"

On an official document, the sky and the feet were full of Xiao Yan's instructions. Under the lamp, his body was motionless, but his wrists were flying. And the various official documents waiting for Xiao Yan's instructions were piled up one or two feet high on top of a few cases on his side.

The tent suddenly opened, and Guo Rong walked in lightly. Xiao Yan didn't raise his head and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Guo Rong seems to have been accustomed to seeing Xiao Yan so hard-working. He said softly: "Yue Shuai was summoned. ”

Xiao Yan nodded and stopped the pen in his hand. I want to put my feet down. Guo Rong quietly helped Xiao Yan pack up his shoes and socks and put them on. Then he quit the book.

Under the lights, the girl's face was also a little reduced. Xiao Yan had already persuaded her a few times to help her sit in Taiyuan for a while, and the eldest lady of the Guo family was also a bit famous in the army, so she could hold the scene. But Guo Rong refused to do it. was beside Xiao Yan, not only wearing armor as a guard, but also silently taking care of Xiao Yan's food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Girl's affection, her own life is not clean. When Guo Rong has a son, will he simply seal a domain in Yandi and let him be a blessing?

Xiao Yan looked at Guo Rong's back, and for a while turned this half-joking thought. And Yue Fei had already opened the curtain and entered, and bowed respectfully.

Yue Fei also looked like he was in armor, with a cloak behind him and armor on his body, all of which were dotted with mud marks.

"I don't know what will happen when the king summons the end?"

Xiao Yan moved his wrist and smiled: "Find a place to sit down and talk, the place is not big, poking here, I can't breathe." ”

Yue Fei looked for the horse vultures placed next to him, and sat down with a loud sound of armor. And Xiao Yan asked lightly: "How is the war?" ”

In the past few days, the fierce offensive battles have been commanded by Yue Fei in person. has been pressing on the front line, supervising the various departments to set off waves of offensives, and it is really a mountain of corpses in the front line, and the blood is flowing like a river!

Yue Fei had a calm face: "The last general is incompetent, there has been no major progress in the past two days, and I ask the king to punish him heavily." ”

Xiao Yan nodded noncommittally: "The Jurchen Tartars have always been strong and capable of fighting, and they have recently increased their troops, needless to say that they are all drawn back from the east." With a large number of troops and terrain advantages, how can it be so easy to fight with the exit of the Lanshui River Valley? Whatever the punishment is, it doesn't matter. ”

During the conversation, Xiao Yan's expression suddenly turned cold: "............ Pengju, you have been in the army for a long time, how do you not know how difficult this offensive war is? It is necessary to take every step of the way, destroying the defenders' trenches and fences, deer watchtowers, and continuous walls and trenches layer by layer in order to attack them. It's a delicate job, and there's no need to rush it............ Why are you just urging the army to attack these days? So many sons are injured, what is the reason? Do you carry these lives or do I bear them? ”

Yue Fei stood up solemnly and saluted to the ground again: "Naturally, the last general will bear it!" That is, the king wants to use military law for the last general, and the last general will no longer complain! ”

Xiao Yan sneered: "You're not afraid of me taking risks!" ”

Yue Fei was just silent, standing on the spot with a calm expression, maintaining a bowing posture.

The Jurchens suddenly amassed forces to strengthen the defensive line. It shows that the Yifang Jurchen defenders have already drawn their forces to the emptiness. If Yang Keshi and Wei really broke through to the east, it was very likely that they would be able to fight out of the mountains of the Weishui River Valley, and it would be in these two days!

In Xiao Yan's plan. is ready to sneak through the mountains and control this defeated army and horse under his own command. Then led them to the conflict all the way to the three states beyond the river. With this army and horse as the backbone, collect the troops of the three states outside the river, or even part of the western army, and rebuild the western front against Zonghan!

Such a big thing, who under his command can do it. Who has this name of intimidating the Quartet?

Such a plan was proposed, but Zhou told a few cronies around him. Needless to say, there was a huge wave of opposition. But they were all forcibly suppressed by Xiao Yan.

And Yue Fei, as one of the opponents, couldn't compete with Xiao Yan, the king of Yan. In these few days, he could only desperately destroy the army and horses to attack the front defense line. This is not just to contain the Jurchen army and horses to fight for a way out for the Yan Yan army, but really wants to fight under Yifang City and meet the Yan Yan army. then at that time. With the whole army marching towards the three states outside the river step by step, Xiao Yan doesn't have to take such a risk?

Such a strong attack certainly brought great pressure to the Jurchen Tartars, so that Wanyan Hulu was ready to fight hard. The elite of the Yan King, who can launch a strong attack, is also seriously damaged!

Xiao Yan stood up violently, his eyes seemed to be breathing fire, staring at Yue Fei fiercely.

"If you die, I can't die? Starting from Yandi, how did Lao Tzu come over? Now under the east of the river, Hebei. Only Lao Tzu's army fought hard, and there were people everywhere who were making trouble and pulling their hind legs. The situation is not much better than when Yandi was in the past! At this time, do not continue to work hard. What else?

………… As soon as Lao Tzu gave the order, you naturally had to go up and fight hard. But at a critical time, you can't hesitate to press yourself up. Otherwise, how could Lao Tzu face so many good sons who died for me? Otherwise, how can this dangerous situation be salvaged! You must know that Hebei is struggling to support, and there is not much time left for us here! ”

Xiao Yan walked a few quick steps in the tent and suddenly turned around. Stretching out his hand, he pointed at Yue Fei viciously: "Don't you know that in the past few days, it has been difficult to open the defense line of the Jurchen Tartars?" It's one thing to play hard. It's another thing to consume the lives of your sons and daughters! The lives of hundreds of sons and daughters who have been injured in the past few days, you Yue Peng will compensate me! ”

Yue Fei trembled, gritted his teeth, and just stood up straight.

Since Xiao Yan's rise, Yue Fei has followed left and right. Xiao Yan has always been supportive of him, and he didn't even say anything serious. Look at the meaning of love and show it all. Even Han Shizhong said behind his back that the encounter between King Yan and Pengju was a godsend, and others could not envy it.

But now Xiao Yan scolded Yue Fei for slashing his head and covering his face!

After scolding him fiercely, Xiao Yancai said with a cold face: "The entire Great Song Dynasty does not take the lives of the generals as one thing. I, Xiao, am a general, but I value the lives of the generals! They can attack on their backs in the mountains, and they will not turn their heels. If I, Xiao, can't move forward and only care about my own life, how can I lead these 100,000 good men? It's better to return south on the same day, I will be a rich man in Bianliang, play the ball market, make a little fortune, and I will run south when the Jurchen Tartars are killed. Do you Yue Pengju think that your own commander is such a person? ”

Yue Fei raised his head and wanted to say something. was stopped by Xiao Yan with a wave of his hand.

"Hedong and Hebei, 200,000 Hu horses are surging south. That's all there is to it, the western army is divided, and the people in the court just want to wait for me to show my flaws and then defeat me. In such a situation, how can I not fight to the death, how can I not do everything I can to save the day? How many sacrifices you and your subordinates have made, how much suffering they have endured, and how much blood and sweat they have shed. I can only be more than you! Only then can I let the 100,000 sons under my command fight to the death without hesitation under my banner, and let all the good men in the world follow my banner and follow me to fight in the east and west, until the Hulu is completely destroyed, until the rivers and mountains are cleaned up again! ”

After shouting happily, Xiao Yan looked at Yue Fei coldly: "Pengju, do you still want to stop me?" Only if I go beyond the river can I save this situation! Whether it is to lead the army to fight over, or can only rush over with the desperate fight of the Yan Yan army! ”

Yue Fei clenched his fists heavily: "King, please let the last general follow him and go to the river with the king!" ”

Xiao Yan smiled and waved his hand: "You still have to sit here to control the whole army, you maintain the offensive, and there are fewer Tartars behind Lao Tzu's ass." Yandi has come through such a difficult situation, are you afraid that this little wind and waves will not be successful? ”

Yue Fei took a step forward, and in the end he didn't say what he wanted to say, but he just trembled his lips and said: "King, please let us fight for another day!" Just fight hard for another day! If you can't say it, you can open the way, and let King Yan lead the army all the way to the three states outside the river! ”

Xiao Yan shook his head lightly, looking to the west, as if his gaze had penetrated the tent at this moment, looking straight into the depths of the night.

It seems to be able to see that more than 10,000 defeated troops in Yan Yan are mustering up courage and desperately going eastward, and they have already killed the Weishui River Valley. And in the north, behind them, there are Jurchen armies, desperately chasing and coming, just waiting for the final destruction of the more than 10,000 defeated troops near Yifang!

"There's no time............ Pengju, there is no time. This battle situation on the east and west wings of the river can only be saved if I go there in person! (To be continued)
