Chapter 53 Civil Officials Who Want to Change the Law
readx; Han Qi, accompanied by Yun Zheng, inspected the Jingxi Army. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info。 23
The appearance of this army does not seem to be as good as that of the Japanese army, and the weapons on the soldiers are not uniformly straddled on the body like the Japanese army, but are tied to any part of the body with strips of cloth or belts, which looks messy.
Yun Zheng saw that Han Qi wanted to ask why a tall and thin veteran would tie a bull's ear knife more than a foot long to his crotch, and it was ridiculous to stop talking out of politeness.
So he preemptively said: "The reason why he tied the sharp knife to his crotch is because his arm has been injured and he habitually hangs in front of his stomach, so he has to do this in order to make the knife quickly." ”
Han Qi nodded and said, "So the position where each soldier places his weapon is actually according to their habits?" ”
"Yes, who can take care of the good looks on the battlefield, as long as they can kill the enemy and save their lives, they are all heroes."
The two chatted and walked into Li Chang's temporary residence, and Li Chang, who still had wax on his hands, greeted the two with a smile.
Han Qi sat for a moment and felt cold, and forced himself to endure the discomfort and asked Li Chang: "Xiao Huo'er hasn't been made into a wax figure by you yet, right?" ”
Li Chang smiled and said: "It's almost over, just wait for Your Majesty to see the living Liao commander, and then make a wax man and place it in the Wude Palace, does the privy envoy want to go to the side hall to visit the wax man?" The craftsmen are making the Yelu Huata wax man, this guy is tall and big, and ordinary wax barrels can't hold him, Xia Guan specially made a new wax bucket that can be molded at one time. ”
Han Qi forcibly endured the ** who was about to vomit and ordered: "Xiao Huo'er and the nobles of the Liao State should not be killed, the court is useful." ”
Li Chang shook his head and said, "You can visit." can be killed, but they can't be given to the Liao people alive, which is related to the credit of the marshal, according to a certain contract, these people can't return to the Liao State alive. ”
Han Qi glanced at Yun Zheng, saw him smiling at himself embarrassedly, and sighed: "It seems that you have used all your resources to achieve the victory of Yanmen Pass, and your reputation has been taken out as collateral, and your life is not easy." ”
Yun Zheng said with a smile: "Actually, Shenwu City is a very good step, and Emperor Liao will also have a long ambition when he gets it." The privy counsellor may not know. A nobleman of the Liao State. With six guards guarding the Shenwu City of Nuoda, my officers and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty took pictures of his Chongtian Festival, and they did not touch the city for two months, and the privy envoy could tell the Liao Emperor about this. ”
Han Qi snorted and said, "Needless to say. It must be the fearless keeper who has made a pact with you. A dilapidated city in exchange for the Liao State's crushing defeat at Yanmen Pass. You've done a good job in this deal, and you're going to use it next time if you keep this person, right? ”
Yun Zheng smiled: "It's best to let this person be promoted and make a fortune!" ”
Han Qi followed with a smile: "People who have already been in the water once want to go ashore dry and refreshing." How can there be such a cheap thing in this world? Just like if you deliberately snubbed the people of Dingzhou City, if you do something wrong, I'm afraid you will have to bear it for the rest of your life. ”
Han Qi knew that the Jingxi Army had a strong wariness of him, so he didn't force these people to understand, he was used to being a wicked person, and he didn't care about being misunderstood by the Jingxi Army, there were always some bad things to say by himself, and bad things to do by himself.
Yun Zheng didn't know how Han Qi operated, but the Liao people actually reacted, and Ye Luxin, the king of the Southern Courtyard of the Liao Kingdom, sent a letter to Yun Zheng, hoping to exchange prisoners. The proposed condition was one for one, Yun Zheng thought that it couldn't be so cheap, and proposed that the women and children taken by the Liao people must be added to the exchange team, otherwise the young men of the Liao State in their hands would serve hard labor until they died!
Han Qi didn't leave Dingzhou City these days, but he sent more letters, Yun Zheng didn't think that he could use a letter to dispatch the ministers of the Liao State to do things, he just counted the chips in his hand, and then told the special civil officials to do this kind of thing, really speaking, many civil officials in the Great Song Dynasty and the officials of the Liao State had a good friendship.
The exchange of prisoners of war was generally done after the end of the war, and this kind of thing was done by the Liao State and the Western Xia, and with the barbarians, but there was no exchange of prisoners with the Great Song Dynasty, because the Great Song Dynasty rarely caught those Liao people on horseback.
When Han Qi came, he came empty-handed, but when the old housekeeper of the Shizhong Xin family came over, he was full of more than a dozen carts of things, although most of them were worthless food and medicine, but it really made Yun Zheng feel the warmth brought by his old friend.
The old housekeeper stood aside and waited for Yun Zheng's father and mother to eat melons, and the speed of cutting melons could not keep up with the speed of the couple eating melons.
The old housekeeper also chattered while cutting melons: "Make evil, one is the most powerful general of the Great Song Dynasty, and the other is a dignified lady, when I was in Tokyo City, where can this rough food enter the mouth of the nobles, and the border pass is where the nobles stay, there is no sour**, no honey, no ice fish, not to mention snow bubble bean water, now it is to eat pear pulp, braised plum water, ginger honey water, papaya juice, agarwood perfume, lychee paste water, bitter water, kumquat group, snow bubble spleen drink, fragrant drink, perilla drink, white mash cold water, soap water, Sweet bean sugar, mung bean water, brine plum water, Jiang tea water, Wuling San, Da Shun San, lychee paste, snow bubble plum wine, ......"
The old housekeeper of the Shi family is not small, he is eighty years old this year, I heard that he used to be the personal servant of the ancestor of the Shi family, but now that he is older, he will easily not come out to do things, as long as he comes out to do things, it must be a private matter.
The old housekeeper was close to Yun Zheng when he was in Tokyo, and always said that Yun Zheng had the breath of his old master, and whenever Yun Zheng went to Shi's house to play, the old housekeeper must come out to serve.
Yun Zheng looked up to the sky and cried three times, buried his head in eating melons, and threw away the melon skin after eating the melon in his hand and said: "Sour**? Icefish? There are those things in Yanmen Pass, that is, some of the spirits I brought with me from Tokyo have been sent to the wounded barracks to wash the wounds of the wounded soldiers.
Old housekeeper, I saw that there was a grape brew, first bring me a big cup, the melon can't be eaten, or drink some grapes to make a slippery seam. ”
The old housekeeper smiled and said, "My little master knows that you like this, so he instructed the old slave to bring an ice box and wrap it in a new quilt so that the ice has not melted yet." ”
Saying that, the triumphant commanded the servant to unload a large creature from a carriage, and after removing the quilt on it, he magically took out the same exquisite cold food from the large box.
Su Shi had already inadvertently passed by Mr. Mansion's three times, and he took away a bunch of food once he came, and Yun Zheng could hear the cheers of the tigers outside the courtyard wall.
Although there are many things, there are not many people, Han Qi, Li Chang, Xiaolin, Wu Jie, Liang Ji, Peng Jiu, Han Niu, and Monkey are all divided, and there is not much left. The old housekeeper blamed himself vigorously and said that he had brought too little things.
Li Chang came over with a smile, he knew the old butler of the Shi family, and he also knew that this old butler was a very prominent figure in the noble circle of Tokyo City, and he knew better what the old man was doing here, Shi Zhongxin's letter vaguely revealed a sentence or two, and Li Chang knew that except for those two sentences, everything else was nonsense.
Ge Qiuyan was originally afraid of the heat, and he hid in the house alone and ate a pot of iced yogurt foam, after Su Shi slipped in, he came out with an empty basin after a while, and saw Mr. lying in the shade of the tree to enjoy the shade, but the old housekeeper and Li Chang were gone.
I leaned up to Mr. and whispered, "Why doesn't Mr. go to talk to the old butler about this kind of thing?" ”
Yun Zheng said slowly: "Now is the time for self-preservation, Li Chang is more good at doing this kind of thing, let him talk about it, it is better than me to talk about it." Don't worry, you won't lose those brothers who are fighting, Shi Zhongxin is not a greedy person and knows what to do.
The emperor is coming, if I am not mistaken, the purpose of Han Qi's coming is to facilitate the meeting between the Emperor of Liao and my Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and they have already prepared for it.
We used to think that the emperor came to Zhaozhou because the emperor was willful, but now we have figured it out that the emperor's coming to Zhaozhou was simply facilitated by them from the middle, and they knew that there was no danger for the emperor to come to Zhaozhou, no matter whether we killed Yelu Huata or not, the Liao people would retreat.
That is to say, the Liao people will march to Tang County at most, and will not attack Dingzhou, the Dingzhou tragedy was created by Cao Dading and them under fear, I have always doubted why Yelu Huata did not take Dingzhou, and I have always doubted why Yelu Huata dared to defend Tang County after the defeat, and dared to send two women to negotiate conditions with me when it was most critical, because he thought that I was also the maker of the whole plan, but he was wrong, so he died.
Why do we never have reinforcements at Yanmen Pass? No matter how hard we fight, we can only defeat the Liao people at most, and we don't have the strength to take a step closer? Not to mention anything else, as long as we give me another 30,000 troops, the four cities in Xijing of the Liao Kingdom will be captured by us, plus the three cities that the Great Song Dynasty got before, we will be able to occupy seven states in the sixteen states of Yanyun! ”
Su Shi said angrily: "These thieves deserve to die!" ”
Yun Zheng said with a smile: "This is not necessarily, the reform of the Great Song Dynasty has begun, it is a fundamental order to fight outside the country and first to settle inside, it is the emperor's unexpected move that destroyed the plan of the civil official group, it is the emperor's willfulness that caused this war, you can also say that it is a manifestation of the imperial power wanting to break free from the shackles, all these years my energy has been focused on the military, and I rarely ask about government affairs, needless to say, this change of the civil official group must have something that cannot stand the imperial power, so there will be the current trouble."
The four state cities outside the Yanmen Pass, if they don't take it today, there will always be a day when they will take it down, and these civil officials can see it very clearly, so they want to form a delicate balance between Song and Liao, because they see through the weakening nature of the Liao State.
The longer it drags on, the more beneficial it will be to the Great Song Dynasty, so they will do something that will not send me reinforcements, once we capture the four states of Xijing, needless to say, the war will continue, and it will directly drag down the finances of the Great Song Dynasty, and the strength they have accumulated with great difficulty will also disappear.
