Everyone asked what the wartime base camp was, and Hu Yangeng explained: "In order to win the battle, the military and civilian affairs were handed over to the Supreme Command to manage. ”

Empress Zhu thought about it for a moment and was about to agree. But Uncle Zhang objected, the Xuanfu Division was in charge of both the army and the people, and this kind of thing could be done reluctantly.

Zhang Shuye then suggested that Liu Ju should be the prefect of Kaifeng and temporarily take charge of civil affairs. Empress Zhu agreed.

Then everyone discussed the battle and defense, and Queen Zhu was not confident.

Uncle Zhang said: "In the first year of Jingde, the Liao people invaded, and Emperor Zhenzong was also at war, and everyone persuaded him.

Emperor Zhenzong said, "The generals of Taizu Taizong have all passed away, and now there are no generals in front of the battle." It can be seen that there have been brave warriors in all dynasties, as long as the imperial court is willing to discover them. ”

Empress Zhu said: "The concubine also asks General Huyan to demonstrate martial arts, and everyone goes to the atrium." ”

Hu Yangeng said: "The last general is only one person, but you can ask the envoy of the Golden Gun Class Xu to practice with the last general." ”

Hu Yangeng and Xu Ning both went to the atrium, each took a long wooden pole wrapped in cloth, and dipped the cloth in white ash. After a while, Queen Zhu covered her face with a black veil and came out with the prince.

Hu Yangeng and Xu Ning ended their stops, each urging their horses forward, the two horses accelerated, hedged, and seemed to be about to collide together, Queen Zhu "Ah! An exclamation. The two horses are in the stirrup, turning their heads to fight in one place, each peeping at the flaws, and then putting half a little leisure. The two fought to more than 50 together, regardless of victory or defeat. Empress Zhu saw the shocking place, and shouted from time to time: "Be careful." ”

Uncle Zhang persuaded on the side: "The saint is benevolent, the two sons are both famous generals, and they use wooden guns, so they will not be lost." ”

Hearing Mingjin's voice, the two of them restrained their posture and dismounted and bowed down.

"The two generals have extraordinary martial arts, and there are heavy rewards in this palace. Zhang Xianggong, is there anything else going on today? ”

"Nope."

"That Xianggong, Wang Jieshuai, let's go back first. General Huyan waited for a while, and Xu Zhi came to the palace with the palace first. She pointed to a few palace maids and eunuchs, "A few of you, send the emperor back to the palace first." ”

Hu Yan Geng was waiting at the door of the Rui Si Palace, and after a while, he saw Xu Ning coming out with a silver ingot, Tong Mu followed Xu Ning out, saw Hu Yan Geng, and said: "The saint is waiting inside, General Hu Yan go in quickly." ”

Hu Yangeng walked into the hall, the huge Ruisi Palace, except for Queen Zhu behind the screen, there was no one.

"Shu Kang," said Empress Zhu, "just now I encouraged Xu Zhi's envoy, rewarded him, and let him go." After the queen finished speaking, she regretted a little in her heart: Why should I say this, let him know that I treat him differently than others?

The queen cooled her voice: "Hu Yangeng, you sent the palace back to Bianliang, and supported the crown prince, and I haven't rewarded you yet." ”

"I am willing to die for the saint and the crown prince."

"These two things are immortal achievements, and the reward will be made after the palace and Zhang Xianggong have discussed, don't worry."

"The last general has never thought of rewarding, so there's no hurry."

"Hu Yangeng, you come forward and see that there is a phoenix on this screen."

Hu Yangeng stepped forward according to his words and heard Queen Zhu say, "Press your palm on the heart of the phoenix." Hu Yangeng did as he said.

"Is it ready?" Empress Zhu asked.

"Put it away."

Empress Zhu stood behind the screen, stretched out her hand and pressed the phoenix's heart on the opposite side of the screen, thinking: "This is the palm of the hand." ”

There was silence in the Ruisi Hall for a while, and Empress Zhu seemed to hear her heartbeat, so I don't know how long it took for Empress Zhu to say: "Hu Yangeng, this is the intention of wishing you a blockbuster and soaring to the sky." ”

"Thank you for the love of the saints."

"Don't talk to others when you go out, so as not to make people jealous."

"Yes!"

Hu Yangeng came out of the Rui Si Palace, and when he was about to reach the Xuande Gate, Tong Mu caught up and held a silver ingot: "The sage gave one ingot, which is the same as Xu Zhi's envoy." The sage specially explained that General Huyan should not shirk. ”

On this night, Hu Yangeng suddenly heard the sound of war drums, which came from a corner of the city wall occupied by the Jin soldiers. Hu Yangeng hurriedly put on his whole body and rushed to the west city wall with his horse.

When he arrived at the city wall, Puliuru Bo, who was in charge of garrisoning here, reported: "The golden thief beat the drum and did not go down to the city." ”

Hu Yangeng thought for a while: "When the gold thief saw that the ransom was still not ready in the city, he used drums to frighten the people. Be careful. ”

On the 10th of March, Xuanzan outside the city sent twenty fast horses to deliver a message to the city, and about half of the men rushed into the city, while the rest of the messengers were intercepted by the Jin. Xuanzan reports three things:

One said: Li Gang led the reinforcements to Xiangyang. In August last year, after Li Gang failed to rescue Taiyuan for the third time, he was reappointed as the Xuanfu envoy to replace Li Gang, and Li Gang was recalled to Beijing. In September, Li Gang was dismissed from the Privy Council and appointed as the governor of Yangzhou with a bachelor of the Guanwen Palace.

Soon after, he was dismissed from office on the charge of "dictating the war and spending money on the funeral teacher", and was promoted to the Mingdao Palace in Bozhou. In October, he was appointed as the deputy envoy of the Baojing Army, and the Jianchang Army (now Jiangxi Nancheng) was resettled. Later, it was Ningjiang (now Fengjie, Chongqing).

In December, the Jin soldiers again marched southward, reaching Bianliang. Zhao Huan reinstated Li Gang. When Li Gang passed through Changsha on the way from Jianchang to Ningjiang, he immediately led the division of Changsha Zuo near the "King of Qin" to come to the aid, Li Gang recruited troops and horses on the Jinghu Zhulu, and after more than two months of preparation, he and Gao Gongchun, the governor of the South Road, met in Xiangyang, and the two gathered 100,000 troops and were rushing to Bianliang.

The second said: Fan Zhixu led Shaanxi reinforcements to break through Tongguan. Xuanzan wrote: "In the first month, the Chinese army went to Shaanzhou, and the Jin people guarded Tongguan with 50,000 soldiers. Xibing Day engaged the Jin people and captured Tongguan. Since the first month of the month, where more than ten battles have been able to get Tongguan, the soldiers have been killed and wounded, and the troops have been sent out of Tongguan in order to be empty, and the army has been cleaned up and cleared out of Tongguan. ”

Although there were heavy casualties, Fan Zhixu at least brought reinforcements to get through Tongguan and was coming.

Three said: King Kang took the generalissimo of Hebei soldiers and horses in Xiangzhou, Chen Hengbo and the deputy marshal of the soldiers and horses, and the deputy marshals of Zong Ze and Wang Boyan. The Generalissimo's Mansion passed on the counties to raise troops and serve the king. Xiangzhou raised troops to help.

Hu Yangeng looked at the news of these three reinforcements and thought, "Zhao Gou, you are finally here." ”

King Kang Zhao Gou was the ninth son of Emperor Taishang, and among the brothers, he was known for his ability and talent.

"Learning", if it only refers to writing and reading, doing poetry and drawing, that is what many princes have, but in the palace environment, how to exercise a prince's "ability" is puzzling. And the definition of "capable" itself is also difficult to make.

About Zhao Gouzhi is a person, he is very thoughtful about his own interests, never confused, and knows how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, which is what they call "capable".

The reason why Zhao Gou got the opportunity to exercise in the court was related to the humble background of his biological mother Wei.

Merriam-Webster entered the court. Later, he became a member of the court polo team. Because of her appearance, her riding skills are mediocre, and there is nothing particularly attractive to officials.

But one day she rode a horse called "Tie Li", which was later awarded to Wang Yu by Zhao Huan, and Zhao Ji took a fancy to him with the horse, and was named a talented person, and gave birth to a son, which was Zhao Gou.

Even so, Wei, who was promoted from a talented person to a concubine, was still in a disadvantageous position in the competition for intrigue.

The mother's loss of power brought difficulties to her son, and Zhao Gou, who was in the position of a lonely minister, developed the habit of thinking about everything since he was a child.

In his words and deeds, he must consider the impact on himself and what is at stake. The mother was a weakling in the court struggle, and she did not make good use of the opportunity to give birth to a son for the official family to elevate herself.

The son, however, was a strong man, and he vowed to surpass all his brothers and sisters, stand above all others, and create a position for himself to be proud of.

He has no feelings for anyone except his mother, especially his father and the eldest brother who has been made the crown prince. Because one is the culprit that caused his mother's miserable life, and the other is a wall that prevents him from getting ahead.

It took a whole decade of feudal education to teach him to be courteous, benevolent, filial and faithful, and the court's life taught him not to believe these nonsense.

Zhao Gou is a smart student, he has learned both, and he understands the filial piety on the surface and the hatred in his bones. He solved the deceptive level early on.

In the first siege battle, he did not propose to ask the prince and ministers as hostages. Yuansheng asked for the opinions of his brothers, and everyone was afraid that they would not be able to come back as soon as they entered the gold camp.

Only Zhao Gou felt that this was an opportunity for him to stand out, so he sued again and volunteered. Zhao Huan was overjoyed, so he sent him to enter the gold camp with Shaozai Zhang Bangchang.

Zhao Gou acted carefully, neither daring to provoke anger and dissuade and bring disaster upon himself, nor was he willing to grovel and lose his identity like Zhang Bangchang. In the Jin camp, he was more careful to cover himself up to avoid revealing his talents and arousing the suspicion of the Jin people.

He was in Jinying for more than 20 days, and he coped with it decently, and later changed King Su as a hostage, and sent him to Bianliang if he couldn't leave. He actually escaped from the tiger's jaw.

Since then, Zhao Gou has achieved a certain prestige in the court, and his status in the court has surpassed that of his brothers.

After the Jin soldiers went south for the second time, Zhao Gou was appointed by the Emperor and did not name him, plus the instigation of Tang Ke and Geng Nanzhong, the ministers of the court's internal and internal forces. Zhao Gou led a large number of people to negotiate before the army.

Zhao Gou's going out this time was completely different from the first time. The first time, he was only sent as a hostage, but this time he was in the weight of the court. Because he understands that no matter Zhao Huan, no matter the so-called "main battle" minister He Li and others, they all hope that the negotiations will succeed.

As for the conditions, cutting three towns and cutting two rivers, respecting the lord as the emperor or the emperor, how many "sacrifices" are required, anyway, it is the same, as long as the agreement is reached, no matter how much the price is paid, he can sign a contract, and in this regard, he has obtained full powers.

If the peace agreement fails, he will at most be captured and humiliated like his brothers, and if the peace agreement is successful, he will be the number one hero. In the history of more than 100 years. The prince had never done such a great thing, so he gladly accepted the order and went out of the city.

When Zhao Gou said goodbye to his mother Concubine Wei and his wife Concubine Xing were about to set off for the first time, an unusual thing happened. The maid Zhao'er suddenly said in front of many farewell people that she had just seen four generals in golden helmets and golden armor in the clouds, with a majestic appearance, each holding a sword, a bow and arrow, a halberd and other weapons in his hand, as if he wanted to escort His Highness out of the door.

She gestured in the direction of the sky for everyone to see. Some say that they also saw the two gods, and some say that the clouds overlap, the fog and fog, and they can't see clearly.

At this time, the mother concubine Wei suddenly realized: "I am a four-saint, the incense is very pious, and my son should get his help when he travels today." ”
