Chapter 40: No Home (Long Essay on Signing, Asking for Monthly Passes and Comments)
A military general and a spy are not mothers-in-law, Wang Gui first waited for him Zhang Xuansu to drink a cup of hot tea to warm up his body, and then said: "Chief, what does the lord of the Qing State say?"
Zhang Xuansu's identity in the Song State was the head of the Beidi of the Military Intelligence Department of the Privy Council, under the direct leadership of Yu Yunwen, and his identity was top secret. Wang Gui didn't know his identity before he came, and since he was talking about business, Wang Gui naturally changed his name.
Zhang Xuansu said with a smile: "The kings are all using King Qin to scare people, not to mention Liangbi's child, even some martial artists have weak legs and stomachs, so they naturally agree." Today, I was able to be sent because I was talking about it. They didn't dare to play tricks, but here are deep mountains and dense forests, there are hundreds of tribes, and it does take time to gather the population, so the lower officials were able to recommend themselves as envoys. However, in the shallow view of the officials, the capital is still tougher, and they want to raise it within fifteen days. The word "vice" was quietly removed.
Wang Gui said sincerely: "Even so, Director Zhang has only one old concubine here, and it is almost the same to say that he has no worries. The Jurchens are cunning and brutal, and once they are suspicious, the consequences are unimaginable. So don't take the risk and invite yourself out to meet, if you have an emergency, you can send a small servant, I think that although the Jurchens are defeated, there are still a few smart people. Just like the Zhao Yong who was put back by the official family, he was not a good person. β
Zhang Xuansu was very calm, and said angrily: "The old man, his son and two grandchildren are already under Hu Xianggong's door, even if it is dangerous, there is nothing to be afraid of." β
I have to mention it here, although Han Shizhong is not a good man and a woman, but I know that the official family does not like him to slaughter the city, and after years of education, he is still a little stronger than the original history. When he was engaged in the Yanyun clan, Han Shizhong checked it, this Zhang Xuansu was originally from Liaoyang, and the words were true. My father moved to Yanqing County in his first generation, and Gao Yongchang was attached to Liaojin on the occasion of Liaojin. It is true that he became a pro-people official after the gold reduction, but he belongs to the kind of official reputation that often uses his own money to help people, especially the southern Han people who have constant housework. This traitor is not a traitor, he is very good as an official, and the strength of the family is not strong, and even the family is reluctant, as if it is no good to cut it.
So with a stroke of his pen, King Han Qin snatched the 300 acres of land that their family was nearby, and the house was soft and soft, and the lives of his family members were all preserved. Otherwise, Zhang Xuansu would not have come here to risk the threat of death to watch the ice sculptures and pass on information.
Of course, if Han Shizhong knew that he had a fifth grandson named Zhang Hongfan, who would destroy the Song Dynasty in Yashan after 150 years, then he would fight for this King of Qin and send them on the road in order.
Of course, there is another descendant of the family, that is, Zhang Shijie, one of the three heroes of the late Song Dynasty, who is as famous as Lu Xiufu and Wen Tianxiang.
Having said that, in this time and space, these things should not be able to happen, Zhang Xuansu looked at Wang Gui's face was heavy, but said with a smile: "Wang Dutong is kind to the old man's heart, but now this small country lord is a Chinese man, but he doesn't have the vision of his teacher Xiyin, he only knows how to attach importance to Confucianism, and I don't know how to remove the chaff, but we Liaodi Han people are valued." Xiaguan said one thing, the population under the rule of the Qing Dynasty was so small, and he even learned from me to set up so many departments in the Great Song Dynasty, so he had to have more than one person, and now I Zhang Xuansu is the attendant of the Hanlin Academy of the Qing Dynasty, and the Zhongshu Sheren and the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, this kind of thing is very suitable. β
Wang Gui couldn't cry or laugh, and didn't continue the topic just now, but said: "Why did Director Zhang let me limit the time limit for fifteen days, what is the way?"
Zhang Xuansu nodded and said; "In the past two years, I have traveled to many places north of Huining Province under various pretexts, where the mountains and dense forests of Shangjing Province are six or seven months of the year, and many small tribes are actually still savages, and they are only united by virtue of their achievements in the world. They are also the proverbial birth of Jurchen. Now that this time has come, the Qing Dynasty's fears of the Great Song Dynasty have not been faked, and they no longer have any doubts about the degeneration of their own military power. But these Jurchen tribes did not completely lose their hearts, and with all due respect, according to the terrain and climate of Shangjing Road, even if they send troops to fight, the loss will inevitably be our Great Song Dynasty. Just as the Jurchen Iron Horse was invincible in the plain, but suffered a big loss in the Huai River. β
"So you really have to give the little lord time to ask him to raise peopleβthe bigger tribes have slaves, and they can't be forced to jump over the wall. But it can't be too long, the general should have seen it here, Huining Mansion is too cold, you only have a thousand soldiers and horses, you have to escort five thousand people, after all, it is dangerous. And at this time, snow is common, they have experience and are not afraid, in case of a three-foot snow march, it is the former army soldiers who suffer. β
Wang Gui nodded solemnly and said: "Our military machine should be written Huang Zong has already had a countermeasure, the Qing State thought that we only had 15,000 soldiers in Liaoyang Mansion, but I didn't know that Huanglong Mansion had already responded, and the cold protection materials should be prepared, and the army had been prepared before the Northern Expedition It was just hard work Zhang was in charge, and I was also from Hebei, but I never knew that there was such a cold place!" But the official family means that this Jurchen Ministry still has to keep Eastern Mongolia and Goryeo in check, which can only make you work hard for a long time. β
Zhang Xuansu didn't say much, since he chose this path, he was naturally prepared, but after all, he had been lonely for too long, and he was very relieved to be comforted by his comrades, so he said: "There is one more thing, it is a matter of unification, although I think they are villains in vain, but I have to tell you." So he brought out the things they had instigated Wang and Zhang.
After Wang Gui heard this, he made up his mind, and then smiled bitterly: "I'm not a fool, these days they have discussed it, you say a word to me, can't I hear it." It's just ridiculous that a group of them is not as good as Wan Yanyong's doll. β
Where do you not know how to observe words and emotions as an undercover agent, Zhang Xuansu thought about it, and it was not easy to speak deeply, so he only said: "All are loyal to the monarch and patriotic, so naturally they are not afraid of these small things, but they must also prevent them from malicious slander." β
It's getting late, and Zhang Xuansu won't go back, which is really suspicious. Wang Gui said at this time: "It's not good to send carriages and horses to escort it, please forgive the principal, but this thing is still entrusted by Hu Xianggong, and please accept it." "Anyway, I brought a green robe and cotton jacket, needless to say that it was the Song Dynasty version of the army coat invented by Zhao Guanjia, put it on him, and said: "Bitter cold land, take care, this cotton is produced in the south, the official family likes it the most, and when Master Zhang returns, you might as well go and see the cotton fields there with your own eyes, and see the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in my Great Song Dynasty."
Zhang Xuansu's eyes were red, but he didn't say anything, and left without looking back.
At this time, Wang Gui found that Ma Yu was still kneeling there, thanks to the fact that it didn't snow today, otherwise he would have become a snowman. couldn't help frowning: "Why let him mess around like this, what if he really froze to death?" β
A commander beside him was helpless and explained: "The lower official has already persuaded him several times, but this guy said that he won't get up, I'm really afraid that you will drive him away." At a young age, he somehow had the same strength as the little official (Yue Yun's name in Yue's army), and we couldn't drag it alive or dead. Seeing that Wang Gui's face was not good, he hurriedly called Ma Yu a few more times, but found that the person had fainted from the cold, but he still maintained a kneeling posture.
Everyone had no choice but to greet and carry people into the tent first, and several soldiers rubbed the snow and told him not to really fall disabled, after all, the Ma family is also a big household in Jingdong, and he has done a lot for the Yue family army over the years. Otherwise, no matter how talented Ma Yu is, he can't follow the deputy capital as soon as he comes up.
Don't you know the rules of our former army? The marshal's own son has to start from the head of the capital (100-person squad leader) when he joins the army.
The commander looked at Wang Gui standing in a very bad mood, and deliberately boasted: "Deputy Commander, don't worry about him, after all, this guy has violated military discipline, and no matter how much he looks down on the Jurchen lackeys, he shouldn't start beating the envoys, and the two countries are not at war?" That is, you are tolerant, if the marshal is there, you will directly correct the military law. β
Wang Gui suddenly turned his head, his eyes seemed to have a cold air outside the tent, and said: "In your eyes, the marshal is such a mean person, just a small mistake, you have to kill someone." β
Of course not, the commander wanted to say that I just wanted to make a sycophant, but before he could speak, Wang Gui's next words came to his ears, and it was like a thunderbolt from the sky, "Since you want to be the commander of the army like this, then I can't tolerate it, and I will ask to retire when I go back." Thinking that you are Taihang Mountain, you will wait from us, and the military merits and wealth will not be recovered. β
The tent was not big, and everyone could hear what Wang Gui said very clearly, but they really couldn't believe it when they put it together. What? is a good way to let people retire from the army, Ma Yu can still say that he made mistakes, then the commander is just saying a joke, although this is in the army, it will not be like this.
The Yue family army is strict in military discipline, but it is not strict to this extent!
Huang Zong, who has always been a staff officer, hurriedly said: "Jie Shuai (Wang Gui was appointed as the envoy of the military festival), Lu Dayou just said inappropriately, not so, you acted like this, but it violated our military discipline." β
Wang Gui said lightly: "This town can't tolerate others instigating me and the marshal, I act as the former army of the imperial camp, and I am in the territory of the enemy's country, the big and small military can make their own decisions, how can I violate military discipline?" β
The commander of Lu Dayou also reacted, and the deputy commander was going to move seriously, and said immediately: "Deputy commander, the villain has followed you and Yue Shuai since the first year of Jingkang, and it has been twelve years since he went from Tokyo to Jeju to destroy Western Xia, you, don't want me." β
Wang Gui's expression eased slightly, as if he remembered the eventful years of the past, but he didn't speak. Lu Dayou was excited, "When the Jurchen dog went south, I just went out to fish and escaped, and my family died and fled...... I can't remember how many battles we've fought, but every time a brother is gone...... I don't have any great skills, but after leaving the front army, I don't have a home anymore. β
His words were excited, and he even called Yue Fei to the Japanese official position. But that emotion was so sincere, Wang Gui finally sighed and said, "That's it, go and get the ten military sticks, and have a long memory." β
Lu Da was overjoyed, knowing that he was letting himself go, so he went to be beaten after kowtowing.
Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Ma Yu was gradually recovering, Wang Gui suddenly felt very tired, ordered someone to take care of him, and returned to the main tent, drove away the attendant and sat alone, thinking about Lu Dayou's words,
"It's been twelve years, you, don't want me."
So how many years has he followed Yue Fei? How many years have I known Zhang Xian?
Needless to say, if you don't get old, Wang Gui will certainly not make a mistake, but in his heart, there is still such a thing.
I really don't have any inspiration today, so I won't come to the small theater first.
