According to the calculation of the speed of the march, the army led by Li Kui just arrived at the city of Lanzhou and took the city, which is unreasonable.

It is estimated that because of the small number of troops and the fact that he came from afar, if Li Kui was a person who knew the art of war, he would naturally not get too close to the city wall. Now that Li Kui is about to become the god of the Great Song Dynasty, there is no reason not to know the truth.

Continuing to calculate, if you need to restore the physical strength of the soldiers, scouts and reconnaissance, it will take more time, and two days should be needed, right? Then before Gao Yu arrived with his troops, it was unlikely that Li Kui would make any moves.

But it was impossible, but it became possible.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Tong Guan doesn't believe in evil anymore.

Tong Guan, the first master of the Great Song Dynasty eunuch world, said that he didn't believe that Lanzhou City was defeated, he lay on the grain cart, stretched his neck, and stared at Zhang Chuan vigorously in his eyes, like a turtle that had been stepped on his back.

Although Zhang Chuan said that he didn't like to see eunuchs, this stemmed from his father's relationship. Zhang Yu was a subordinate of Chong Ge, and he used to have a very stiff quarrel with the eunuch Li Xian, and even complained, thinking that Li Xian killed so many Western troops in the Great Song Dynasty. But after all, Li Xian is the emperor's envoy and supervisor, and Zhang Chuan also has to make superficial efforts when facing Tong Guan's questioning.

He came to Tong Guan with his hand, bowed down and said: "General Fan doesn't know the art of war, and he was captured by Master Li's little trick, and my Feilian army won a big victory in this battle." ”

There is no doubt about the big win.

Lanzhou City has been taken, even if the Fan general abandons the city, after the Fei Lian army arrived, it took the city without a single soldier, which can be regarded as the credit of the Fei Lian army. As for the merit of recovering the lost territory, it is not an achievement that can be compared with ordinary beheading.

Tong Guan panicked in his heart, he decided that Zhang Chuan had lied to him, because he was a eunuch, so he didn't know the art of war?

Of course, he didn't believe that Li Kui could defeat more than 10,000 cavalry with 3,000 men. He felt that he must have missed something, and it could probably be a great stroke of luck. As for saying that the general does not understand the art of war, this is also reasonable, anyway, these 3,000 Feilian cavalry were all bought by Li Kui. Civilian officials don't need military exploits, and Li Kui doesn't need them.

In addition to the military exploits of recovering the lost territories, which were useful to Li Kui, other decapitation merits were not only useless to him, but also harmful to him.

You can't say how many people he killed when Li Kui put himself on the battle table, right?

A smart civil servant will not associate these attacks with himself. After Wang Shao recovered the land of Hehuang, he entered Beijing and took charge of the Privy Council. But it soon became clear that the civil officials did not regard him as their own, and the military generals regarded him as an outlier who grabbed credit, and no one treated him, plus some people in the imperial history platform were dissatisfied, and it didn't take long for him to fall, and he was thrown from the position of the privy envoy to Zhizhou.

This is certainly not the reason why Wang Shao became a military general and led the Western Army to fight on the battlefield.

At the beginning, Wang Shao often went into battle to kill the enemy, and there were scenes where he was hit by seven arrows and reversed.

If it weren't for the fact that Da Song's armor was really good in protection, so that he was only slightly injured, Wang Shao would have died on the battlefield a long time ago.

Wang Shao is too eye-catching, plus he has done imperial history, he is sharp, and he decorates himself too gorgeously.

But Li Kui is different, he basically never writes military newspapers and the like, anyway, there was Hao Sui's secret fold before, and later there was a kind of Jianzhong, so naturally he didn't need his help.

Moreover, he never allowed his name to appear on the cantata.

At most, write three words 'Chen Li Kui', which indicates that this piece is written by Li Kui, which is enough.

So much so that many bigwigs in the court thought that Li Kui was a scholar who shook a fan on the battlefield, and they didn't know that this thing was carrying a machete to bleed people everywhere.

Tong Guan also felt that Li Kui was mostly a wise general and a Confucian general. After all, he had never been on the battlefield to see Li Kui slaughtering in all directions.

Tong Guan, who recognized Li Kui's shit luck, snorted coldly: "General Fan naturally doesn't understand the art of war, forget it, you tell me how to take Lanzhou City, and our family will be able to write a secret fold when the time comes." You just need to tell me how many beheadings there are, where the head is, and we will wait for someone to verify it. As for the captives, it goes without saying. ”

This is a serious matter, and Tong Guan does not dare to delay.

After all, the emperor sent him to the northwest, not to snatch military power in the first place, but to act as the emperor's eyes and ears in the western army. Everything he saw and heard was sent to the palace through secret folds.

"This ......" Zhang Chuan hesitated for a moment, bowed to Tong Guan and said, "Father-in-law Qiyu, behead seven or eight thousand, right?" ”

"What, seven or eight ......" Tong Guan had made up his mind before that he must arrange Li Kui well for the emperor's secret fold, and this guy even beat him. There is a way to beat a dog and look at the owner, although he is a crippled and despicable person. But what do you say, you are also a servant of the emperor, where is it good to be beaten in vain casually?

Don't talk about beating him, but lie to him, it's too much!

Tong Guan couldn't bear it.

But after listening to Zhang Chuan's words, his eyes were about to pop out in shock, and he exclaimed, "Seven or eight...... Thousand. ”

After speaking, he swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva in succession with jealousy, if he had such a merit, wouldn't it be ...... Want to level up 10 levels in a row? It is easy for eunuchs to be promoted, get the favor of the emperor, continue to get the favor of the emperor, the emperor's grace is mighty...... Then you can rise to the top. There were also many eunuchs in the Great Song Dynasty who were promoted to the rank of envoy because of the emperor's favor.

"Ahem, ahem!" Tong Guan was worried about whether Li Kui would kill Liang and risk his merits? This is a big taboo in the military, but this kind of thing is inevitable. The easiest military merit to obtain will make any military general lose his desire for military merit and become a complete devil.

"Forget it, Zhang Chuan, you still talk about the captivity, right?"

"There are more than 3,000 captives, and they are not as wanton. At that time, after the soldiers were defeated, the adults let people chase for a while, plus those who surrendered on the battlefield, there were so many people who were blocked in the city before they had time to escape. ”

"Come and talk to us." Tong Guan kept tilting his head and feeling a little difficult to talk to Zhang Chuan, so he stretched out his hand to greet Tong Guan and said: "You tell our family how the cavalry arrived in Lanzhou City, how to attack, and how the Fan army was defeated." ”

"Yes, father-in-law!"

After all, Tong Guan was a prison sent by the emperor, and Li Kui could look down on Tong Guan and bully Tong Guan. But Zhang Chuan really didn't have the courage, so he had to follow the grain cart on foot, and began to say how the cavalry marched: "Our army marched for two days, and on the third day, it arrived at the land of ten arrows under the city of Lanzhou. At that time, the generals of the Tibetan army thought that our army was tired and went out of the city to attack our army. ”

Tong Guan said: "The art of war is cloudy, and waiting for work with ease is this truth." ”

Zhang Chuan doesn't care, fighting is like this, whoever wins, who speaks loudly. He continued: "After our army retreated from the city, the soldiers pursued closely. Our army will plan and lead the soldiers to look for opportunities in the field. Fan will see the opportunity, think that there is an opportunity, and chase after it. But deliberately distanced himself from our army. ”

Tong Guan nodded in agreement and said, "This is the method of old manhood. ”

Zhang Chuan frowned slightly, feeling a little weird: "Then the battle was about to break out, our army began to charge, the Fan soldiers were not well prepared, and they were defeated by our army, and the Fan generals chose to retreat at that time." ”

"If you miss a blow and choose to retreat, this is the ability of a good general. On the battlefield, the first word is undefeated, and then the word is victorious, this is Zhang Chi's way. ”

……

Zhang Chuan listened to Tong Guan's comments, and his heart became even more uncomfortable.

This kind of unhappiness soon aroused Tong Guan's vigilance. He is a eunuch who comes out of the palace, and his perception of any surroundings is much stronger than that of ordinary people. Otherwise, if you anger someone who can't be provoked, won't you have to die?

Tong Guan opened his mouth and asked, "General Zhang, are you uncomfortable?" ”

But Tong Guan also wondered, where did the general not understand the art of war? On the contrary, Li Kui is the one who doesn't understand the art of war!

"Father-in-law Tong, why have you been boasting about the ability of the general, if he has the ability, wouldn't it be that my great Seinfeld Lian army will suffer heavy losses?" Zhang Chuan then clarified the truth: "But I Fei Lian Army has killed countless people, and in the end I am the winner." ”

"General Zhang, don't blame, Tong's body is inconvenient, so this will be wrong." Tong Guan can only prevaricate with physical injuries.

Tong Guan was alert at this time, as if he had praised the wrong object. Tong Guan would definitely not have made such a mistake before, if it weren't for the compaction and shock that Li Kui brought to him, it would not have been so upside down.

But the problem is, Tong Guan is also a person who understands the art of war!

Is it wrong to wait for work?

Is it wrong?

Is it wrong?

Why did they do everything right, but they were defeated on the battlefield? Tong Guan was confused, and began to doubt his ability, is it just that tactics are enough for courage?

In fact, although Tong Guan was restless, he always thought that he was praising Fei Lianjun, but he didn't expect to make this oolong. can think about it carefully, General Fan seems to be the one who understands the art of war, and it is already God's grace that a death expert like Li Kui does not kill himself.

The more Tong Guan thought about it, the more confused he became, but he couldn't help but ask.

After entering the city, he had to continue to fight with Li Kui.

Civilian officials lead the troops, and they have the power to play. The overseers also have the power to play.

The former is played through the Tongjin Division, and the chief official of the Tongjin Division reports to the Menxia Province during the matter, and the copy is sent to the Zhongshu Provincial Metropolitan Hall, and then reported to the emperor. And the eunuchs and the army directly bypassed these official offices and wrote to the introspection, which would be sent directly to the emperor.

If Li Kui and Tong Guan's performance is different, even if the emperor doesn't say it, he will be unhappy.

Because the two completely different pieces show that the front-line generals are not in harmony, they make fun of the Sheji of the Great Song Dynasty.

This is a process of distribution of interests that both parties need to sit down and negotiate well, and Tong Guan has not made an inch, at this time, he is more anxious than anyone else.

In particular, when Li Kui gave him small shoes on his face, he was even more worried that Li Kui would not be able to get in at that time, not only would he not give credit, but he would have to step on him a few times to be happy.

He had to guard against it!

As for the others, Tong Guan was also dizzy, and it seemed that General Fan was doing much better than Li Kui, but why was this guy so unbearable. If nothing else, just stick to it until you get to the battlefield, it's fine!

Fortunately, although the road was not long, Tong Guan finally asked about the battle situation. Some of the next things need Tong Guan to observe, and some need him to send his men to check.

The moment he entered Lanzhou City, he finally discovered why the city was crowded.

Groups of soldiers were guarded to repair the city walls.

Lanzhou City has been built for the first time since more than 20 years ago, and since Renzong, the first person to repair Lanzhou City was the eunuch Li Xian. Later, after the Great Song Dynasty, Western Xia, and Qingtang took turns to control, except for the Great Song Dynasty, which had the intention to build a city, the other two had no intention of building a strong city.

As a result, the city of Lanzhou was in tatters, especially the city walls, which were even more deserted, unrepaired, and almost unusable.

Tong Guan had also been to Lanzhou City before, and he also knew that repairing the city wall was a serious matter. It's just that the moment he saw Li Kui, he still couldn't respond in his heart, but even so, he still had a smile on his face and congratulated: "Congratulations to Lord Li for recovering Lanzhou City." I wonder if Master Li can count the list of prisoners for our family?

Regarding Li Kui's attitude towards him, Tong Guan said that he didn't believe that Li Kui would compromise with him.

He was even worried that after angering Li Kui, it would cause Li Kui to retaliate more violently. After all, he has been taught this guy's careful eyes, and now his back still hurts?

"Little two."

Li Kui shouted at the city wall, and soon a figure rushed down from the city wall and ran to Li Kui: "Young master, you called me?" ”

"Where's the roster of captives?"

"In the hands of the Army."

"Let him bring the roster to Father-in-law Tong. By the way, there is also a list of meritorious services also sent to Tong Gonggong, so that the treasury can sort out the head and give it to Tong Gonggong for inspection. ”

It is not the first time for Li Kui to lead troops to fight, so he naturally knows the process, and since Tong Guan is here, he will simply say it together.

On the contrary, Tong Guan was frightened again, he always felt that Li Kui would stumble on him, which was in line with Li Kui's thoughts. Suddenly, Li Kui became reasonable, but he was not used to it. nervously made a defensive posture, thinking that Li Kui was going to harm him to him. But it wasn't until Li Kui arranged everything that Tong Guan found out that Li Kui didn't find fault with him, and he suddenly became a little cheap, isn't this used to?

"Father-in-law, go this way."

The roster is simple, and the captives can't run anyway. However, it is very knowledgeable to inspect the head, after all, one head is related to dozens of rewards, and three heads can make a soldier upgrade to one level.

That's not a value that money can measure.

Tong Guan pinched his nose in the warehouse, looking at the piles of heads, one by one miserable and white with lime, and his face was hideous. A few of the inspectors looked pale one by one.

Tong Guan was at the door of the warehouse, leaning against the wall and spitting until all the bile was exhausted, and he finally told Tong Guan the results of the inspection.

"Father-in-law, a total of seven thousand five hundred and twenty-seven levels."

"Nothing wrong?"

"There's nothing wrong with that. They are all soldiers, but I don't know how many are regular soldiers and how many are servants. If the body is there, it can be identified by hand. But I'm afraid that's not realistic. ”

"Order someone to pack it, send it to the military department in the capital, and report it to the Privy Council."

"Honorable Order!"

Along the way, Tong Guan began to make a small calculation in his heart, forcing Li Kui to give up his interests and give Gao Yu the credit of five hundred heads, which is a bit much, but he can't give up the child and can't trap the wolf.

And then...... Hehe, Li Kui, what if you can fight again, my father-in-law is the one who writes the secret fold.

When Li Kui and Gao Yu were found, the two of them were eating, and when they saw the pile of meat on the table, Tong Guan immediately felt uncomfortable in his stomach, covered his mouth and ran out.

Finally, the feeling of nausea went down, and then he walked to the official residence.

Waiting for Gao Yu and Li Kui, they will definitely not be able to eat on the day of dinner.

But I waited left and right, but I didn't wait for the two of them. Finally, after an hour, Gao Yu came to the official residence with a full burp, saw Tong Guan with a serious face, and arched his hand: "Father-in-law is waiting for someone to be a master?" ”

"He is the main general, I am the supervising army, I want to go to the fold after the war, I must discuss with him how to write this fold?"

"He didn't tell you the rules?"

"Rules!" Tong Guan's voice was sharpened, he was an eagle dog under the emperor's door, and he had to listen to Li Kui's rules. But anger is anger, and after Tong Guan was angry, he calmed down and asked, "What are the rules?" ”

"Share the blessings and share the difficulties!"

Gao Yu said leisurely, quite complacent.

Tong Guan chewed the words and tasted them for a while, this rule ...... Seems like a bandit's rule, right? Don't you want to be fooled by me?
