The previous Han Emperor was killed by assassins, and now the Jinyang Palace is extremely forbidden, and all the Han Emperor's cronies and ministers must also let the forbidden soldiers inspect it at the city gate before they can move inside.

Han Emperor Liu Jiyuan is not tall, looks quite stocky, has a thick brown beard on his lips and chin, his eyes are deep-set, and his eyes are as sharp as an eagle falcon. Do you have a plan?"

It turned out that the commander of the Tuhun army, Wei Wei, since returning from the southern envoy to the south, has not improved his injuries, but has become more and more serious, although he has to wait until Wu Yingying and others lead the army to surrender, but he died not long after. Because the Northern Han Dynasty was worried that the troops would turn north after the Song Court swept away the Southern Tang Dynasty, they were afraid that if they blatantly took in the Southern Tang Dynasty, they would anger the Song Court, but if Wu Yingying and others were handed over to the Song Court, the hearts of the soldiers would be chilled and they would lose their sharpness, and the monarchs and ministers would not make a decision, so they let Wu Yingying and his 4,000 soldiers temporarily stay at the border, and receive food, clothing and other supplies on a monthly basis according to the heads of 4,000 people.

How do you think that the ministers have their own thoughts, this delay is three months, Wei Wei is no longer there, and no one stands out for Wu Yingying and others, only the Jianxiong Army Festival makes Liu Jiye continue to write books, asking the court to properly settle Wu Yingying and others, whether it is the northern rejection of the Hu people, the western defense party or the eastern resistance to the Great Song Dynasty, the Northern Han army is overstretched, and this elite soldier is needed too much.

"The lord of the country must not take in such a rebellious minister and provoke the Song family to come and attack him!" Prime Minister Guo Wuwei admonished loudly, he had always advocated peace with the Song Dynasty, how could he agree to such actions that angered the Celestial Empire.

Wei Degui, the eunuch of the Da Nei Capital, originally had an indispensable attitude towards how Wu Yingying's department was arranged, but he and Guo Wuwei had been fighting openly and secretly for many years, and what Guo Wuwei opposed, Wei Degui would definitely support, and vice versa. Therefore, Yin Speculation said: "At the moment when the country is employing people, Guo Xiang wants to trap His Majesty in injustice, so that the heroes of the world are cold to the Han?"

Guo Wuwei was robbed by him, he was full of color, and he was about to get angry, and he had always wandered between Guo Wuwei and Wei Degui, and the guards who never showed their attitude, but Fan Chao gave his hand and said: "Wu Yingying was originally the Tuhun army under the command of the late Wei Wei General Du Yu Hou, and the Tuhun army was an unruly outlaw, after General Wei died, he lost his suppression and has driven away several imperial court appointed commanders. At present, the imperial court is unable to crusade, Wu Yingying's troops marched thousands of miles, eliminated the weak and left the strong, all of them are elite soldiers, it is better to order him to take over as the commander of the Tuhun army, if he can't suppress the Tuhun army, he has no ability, even if he can subdue the Tuhun army, it is better than letting the outlaws elect the army commander by themselves. ”

"Confused, Wu Yingying is brave over Pan Cao, and the soldiers he leads are all elite warriors, and then let him subdue Tu Hun , who will be able to control it in the future?" Prime Minister Guo Wuwei opened his eyes and objected loudly.

Wei Degui was rarely supported by Fan Chao once, how could he not repay Cai, and sneered: "The prime minister's words are absurd, although the Tuhun army is strong, but only 3,000 cavalry, then Wu Yingying's subordinates are only 4,000, and a total of 7,000 soldiers and horses, what kind of chaos can be done, besides, Lanzhou is barren, north of the Khitan, west of Fuzhou Zheshi and Xiazhou Dangxiang Tuoba Clan, is the land of four wars, gnawing sand and soil, fighting hard battles, I am afraid that any month of poor food and salary will provoke a mutiny, what kind of rebellion will he take?"

Liu Jiyuan nodded slightly when he heard this, he was unwilling to surrender to Zhao Song, a fierce soldier like Wu Yingying, he wanted to take it for his own use from the bottom of his heart, but he was afraid of angering the Great Song Dynasty and hesitated. At present, the Song people are in the midst of the country, and the new monarch is on the throne and does not use the sword soldiers, which is a good time to eat this strength. Immediately waved his hand to stop the prime minister Guo Wuwei, who was still waiting to speak, and ordered Wu Yingying to come to Taiyuan to see him, and he wanted to personally appoint him as the commander of the Tuhun army, and by the way, he met this reckless man who was said to dare to kill even Cao Bin's nephew.

Jinyang, founded in 500 BC, is an out-and-out ancient city even in the Tang Dynasty.

As a Xiongcheng shielding the Central Plains, for 1,500 years, every dynasty has lengthened its city walls, and only in this way can the people of the Central Plains live and work in peace and contentment. The city wall of Jinyang, the circumference of four miles at the beginning, four zhang high, the wall is one zhang thick, seven hundred years later, the history of the Western Jin Dynasty and the state of the state will expand it to a large city with a circumference of 27 miles, the Northern and Southern Dynasties became the capital of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the royal family of the Northern Qi Dynasty built countless palace buildings in Jinyang, and it really turned it into a brilliant city. Jinyang has since become the foundation of the emperor, Cai Yuan according to this anti-Sui, Tang Dynasty Jinyang was designated as the northern capital, also known as Beijing, and the east capital Luoyang, Xijing Chang'an is equally famous, the famous general Cai Ji expanded Jinyang again, built a sister city of the same size as the old city on the west bank in the east of the Fen River, the two cities face each other across the river, each other is the horns. After the martial arts, the two cities were connected as a whole, and finally built into the male city that is 12 miles long from east to west, eight miles wide from north to south, more than 40 miles in circumference, the Fen River passes through the city, and there are 24 city gates.

When the tall city head of Jinyang appeared above the horizon, Wu Yingying was really stunned.

"Where Jinyang is used, there is enough food and soldiers, it is really the foundation of the emperor given by God. Chase Si, the captain of the Ya Military Academy, who was riding a horse, sighed, remembering that Liu Wenjing, a famous minister of the Tang Dynasty, persuaded Gaozu Cai Yuan to raise an army against the Sui, and the important reason was that Jinyang City was tall and dangerous, and the soldiers of the Three Jin Dynasty were fierce and had sufficient food. The world is difficult to do both, the dangerous city is often barren land, the people are scarce, and the land is fertile, the place with many people is often difficult to hold, but Jinyang is actually a number of beautiful and beautiful, it is a unique male city in the world.

Wu Yingying brought Xin Gu, the commander of the Left Army, and Chase Si, the commander of the Ya Military Academy, to meet Liu Jiyuan, the emperor of the Han State, and only twenty personal guards with him. In order to succeed the commander of the Tuhun army, Wu Yingying had already sent Chase to Jinyang to deal with important ministers, especially to Xuanhui envoy Fan Chao and Da Nei both to check Wei Degui and pay a bribe of 100,000 yuan each. Although the holy decree passed down by Liu Jiyuan only allowed him to go to Jinyang to meet and obey orders, and the other words were unknown, Fan Wei and the others had already sent a general to inform him of the news that the Han Emperor had appointed him as the commander of the Tuhun army.

"It's ridiculous that these traitors still expect to use the hands of adults to clean up my Tuhun children, but they didn't expect the brothers to look forward to the adults going to Lanzhou to meet as soon as possible. "Yan Shilang was seen by Wu Yingying as early as in Shuzhong, before Wei Wei died, he was sent to wait for Wu Yingying and others on the bank of the Yellow River with fifty Tuhun tooth soldiers, after Wu Yingying crossed the Yellow River east, Yan Shilang reported to him as soon as they met, Wei Wei hoped that Wu Yingying would take over the Tuhun army's last wish.

Before Wei Wei died, he summoned the generals in the army and explained that the commander would pass on the throne to Wu Yingying. For more than a year, Wu Yingying led his troops to defeat Pan Mei and Cao Bin in the south of the Yangtze River, and even killed the king of money, and his reputation spread far and wide. Because Wei Wei had already appointed him as the Marquis of Tuhun Duyu, when he heard about these achievements, the generals of the Tuhun army who had accompanied Wei Wei to Shu also felt deeply honored, and they were even more envious of Xin Gu because he followed Wu Yingying, and he was promoted from the head of the Khitan people to the deputy commander in just over a year. The Benduohu and Hu Han mongrels in the Tuhun army are all vulgar and unliterate, and there are people who do not obey the control, but there are no people who think they can be military commanders, and the generals of the army see that Wu Yingying is not alienated by Xin Gu because he is a foreign race, and he is from his own army, so in the face of Wei Wei's last orders, they all bow down and obey orders. After Wei Wei died, several lieutenants constrained their headquarters and decided to send Yan Shilang, who was acquainted with Wu Yingying, to meet the new commander of Yonghe Pass on the bank of the Yellow River on the border of Xizhou.

When he first arrived, Wu Yingying did not want to anger the Han Emperor with his good command of the Tuhun army, so he sent Chase to Jinyang with gold and silver, during which the Tuhun army drove away several commanders appointed by the imperial court, until recently he finally got the news that he was going to take over.

When he saw the head of Jinyang City, he was actually still some distance away from the city gate, it was still early, and everyone was not in a hurry to enter the city, slowing down their mounts, Wu Yingying began to leisurely look at the crowd of people hurrying on the official road.

Jinzhong is still martial, the folk customs are fierce, the women are still modest, the street comes and goes mostly men, the soldiers with waist swords and military uniforms can be seen everywhere, although the clothes are simple, the face is rough, many people have thick calluses between the thumb and index finger, it is obvious that it is caused by practicing archery from time to time.

The vendors on both sides of the street sell more cooking cakes and hot soup, Wu Yingying and others rushed all the way, and when they walked to the gate of Jinyang City, they felt hungry and thirsty, so they found a tea stall, tied their mounts to the willow trees next to the road, and more than 20 people sat on five tables, and asked Dr. Tea to give each table a pot of hot tea, cut five catties of mutton, plus a bowl of hot soup cakes for one person, and planned to rest and eat a full meal first, although the post house in the city also provides food, but Wu Yingying and his party have a large number of people, and suddenly arrived, I am afraid that the officials who receive the guests will also arrange for a while to let everyone have dinner。

While eating and drinking, the official road was filled with smoke and dust in the distance, and seven or eight knights in brocade clothes and costumes rushed from the middle of the road, followed by these forty or fifty horsemen. The person who came was a tall horse under his crotch, dressed in a brocade robe and mink fur, a gold knife hanging from his waist, a carved bow hung in the saddle, and a lot of pheasants and hares were hung on the horses of the generals behind.

Coming to the front of this tea stall, the first person suddenly pulled the reins, the mount hissed, and stood on the ground, he pointed to the Wu Yingying mount tied to the willow tree next to the road, turned his head to a young man beside him and said: "Brother Guo, do you think this is Qinghai Cheng?"

The son surnamed Guo was about to open his voice to reprimand him for almost hitting the person behind him, but when he looked at his gesture, his eyes suddenly couldn't be taken back, and he said: "Exactly, there are dozens of horses in my father's camp in this Qinghai Dynasty, all of which are military generals' mounts, and they are not easy to see elsewhere in the city." There was a hint of pride in his words.
