Chapter 443: You Bastard
readx;
Although Suzhou City is not small, it is not large enough to accommodate all the 100,000 troops of the Beijing camp. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info so the 100,000 soldiers and horses brought by Yan Song were all camped outside Suzhou City.
Yan Song himself led a group of his generals into the city to attend the banquet set up by Suzhou Mansion Yin.
Suzhou Mansion Yin's name is Liu Xiangfeng, and he was transferred to Suzhou the year before last. However, although he served in Suzhou for a short time, he had a large mansion of his own, and this banquet also invited Luo Cheng, the commander of Suzhou Guard, and Hou Zhang, a guerrilla general in Jiayuguan.
It can be seen that this person's skills and communication skills are very good.
Yan Song, as the commander of the 100,000 army, was in the third rank, so he sat in the main position.
During the banquet, Liu Xiangfeng, Luo Cheng, and Hou Zhang frequently toasted Yan Song with a respectful attitude. This made Yan Song very useful, he was able to get to where he is today, and he loaded his grandson along the way. So having the opportunity to be an uncle once, Yan Song was very happy.
During the banquet, Yan Song briefly inquired about the battle situation at the Northwest Border Pass. Only then did I know that although Turpan was menacing before, it still failed to break through Jiayu Pass in the end.
After that, they retreated, and somehow they got into a fight with people in their own country. Therefore, the current northwest border pass is calm for the time being, and there is no war.
When Yan Song heard this, he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "Good luck." ”
Originally, I was still nervous about whether I could beat the Turpan army, but I didn't expect the enemy to have internal strife in his own country.
Such a situation can be said to be blessed by God, and when the other party's internal strife ends, I am afraid that it will be greatly damaged.
At that time, it was a matter of two to say whether they had the ability to continue to attack the northwest border pass.
If Turpan gives up attacking the Northwest Border Pass at that time, then he Yan Song only needs to stay in the Northwest Border Pass for a few more days, and then he can return to the court and enjoy the triumph with peace of mind.
Since then, he has to ascend to the court of the Son of Heaven, worship the prime minister, win the favor of the emperor, serve as the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, and reach the peak of life.
Yan Song, who was in a good mood, drank several glasses of wine with Liu Xiangfeng and them, and Liu Xiangfeng naturally accompanied them to the end.
Yan Song's wine glass had just been put down. The servant girl serving beside him immediately stepped forward to pour wine, and while the servant girl poured wine for Yan Song, Liu Xiangfeng secretly glanced at Yan Song, and then said in a low voice: "My lord, I want to tell my lord about my humble position." ”
Yan Song laughed and said quite heroically: "Lord Liu, don't be so polite, just say anything directly." The people who can drink at the same table here are not outsiders. ”
Yan Song's meaning of buying people's hearts is very straightforward, but as a superior, speaking like this makes Liu Xiangfeng quite useful.
Liu Xiangfeng nodded, and said, "What the adult said", while taking out a letter from his arms.
Liu Xiangfeng handed the letter to Yan Song and said, "My lord, this letter was sent from Jingshi ten days ago, and the person who came was named Qian Juexing, and he was a person under Master Taifu. When he gave this letter to the lowly lord, he specially instructed the lowly lord to pass it on to you when he arrived. ”
"Master Taifu, Jiang Xia?" Yan Song asked.
Liu Xiangfeng nodded, "Yes." ”
Yan Song held the letter in his hand, and every time he was in a hurry to open it, he groaned first, his eyes rolling slightly.
Liu Xiangfeng did not speak.
They are all people who are mixed in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, and who doesn't know that the DPRK and China are now divided into two major forces, one is the Jiang system represented by Jiangxia. One is the Yang family represented by Yang Tinghe.
Although no one thinks that there is any holiday between Jiang Xia and Yang Tinghe on the surface, as long as they have a little political sense, they can feel that the invisible tricks of the two have reached the level of fatality.
So Liu Xiangfeng took out Jiangxia's letter to Yan Song at this moment, which couldn't help but make Yan Song bother to think about what Liu Xiangfeng meant.
He didn't believe that Liu Xiangfeng didn't know that he was a member of the Yang family.
However, Yan Song is also a veteran of officialdom, but after a little thought, he understood Liu Xiangfeng's thoughts. Liu Xiangfeng didn't want to offend either end, because of this move.
Yan Song smiled slightly, tore open the envelope and pulled out the letter paper from inside.
When he shook off the letter, Yan Song frowned slightly.
The letter turned out to be written by Jiang Xia himself, and the content on it made Yan Song appreciate Jiang Xia's power for the first time.
Jiangxia people are in Beijing, but they have already predicted in advance that there will be no major war in a short time after Yan Song arrives in Suzhou.
And he also expected that when he arrived in Suzhou, Turpan would definitely be fighting a civil war, so his only purpose in writing the letter was to hope that Cheng Cheng would send a force of troops and horses to help Tumut drag Turpan.
In fact, this was the only way Jiang Xia could think of. If Turpan has the support of Warat behind him, then it is only a matter of time before they defeat the Tumut tribe, and how to use the Tumut tribe to consume Turpan's strength and delay him to take the Tumut tribe is a top priority in the defense of the northwest border pass.
If Yan Song did so, then Jiang Xia would have enough time to deal with the affairs of Annan and then come back.
So at this moment, the question is, will Yan Song do what Jiang Xia wants?
The answer, of course, is no.
Although Yan Song's heart was shocked when he read Jiang Xia's letter, the degree of power in his heart towards Jiang Xia instantly refreshed to a new height. But Yan Song still threw the letter into the charcoal stove used to scald the hot pot in front of him, turned his head to look at Liu Xiangfeng and said, "I don't have any faith, right? Lord Liu." ”
Liu Xiangfeng was slightly stunned, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Dog's day, this is forcing Lao Tzu to stand up. Liu Xiangfeng scolded secretly in his heart.
If he really admitted that he didn't give any letter to Yan Song, then in the future, Jiang Xia would inevitably offend Jiang Xia, and in order to protect himself, he would have to join the Yang family.
But if he insisted that he handed over the letter to Yan Song, then he would immediately offend Yan Song now. Offending Yan Song is equivalent to offending the Yang family, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Although Liu Xiangfeng didn't like it in his heart, he had no choice but to nod and say: "I don't understand what Lord Yan said, what does Lord Yan mean by faith?"
Yan Song laughed, picked up the wine glass and said to Liu Xiang: "Come on, come on, drink, drink......"
Not long after Yan Song arrived in Suzhou, the Jiangxia people also arrived at Thang Long City in Annan.
Thang Long City is heavily guarded, and the guards at the gate of the city are several times more than when the "three kings and one duke" were competing for the throne of the king, which shows that the situation in Annam is really not optimistic.
Originally, Jiang Xia was going to enter Shenglong City directly with the Daming customs clearance documents, but after thinking about it carefully, Jiang Xia changed his mind and chose to find another way to quietly enter Shenglong City.
At night, the moon is in the sky.
Jiang Xia, Xiao Shu, and Hai Da directly dived with a breath of true qi and entered Thang Long City from the Hulong River.
After entering the city, Jiang Xia discovered that Thang Long City had imposed a curfew. There were a lot of soldiers coming and going on the street, and the three of them deliberately avoided those soldiers, and then walked towards the Guannan Palace.
Based on his understanding of Li Zhiba, the king of Guannan, Jiang Xia believed that Li Zhengba should not betray Li Ruliu. So Jiang Xia decided to go to him first.
A few years ago, Li Zhiba did not have a mansion in Shenglong Mansion, but later Jiang Xia accompanied Li Ruliu and personally selected a palace for him.
Although he hadn't been to Thang Long Mansion for several years, after walking a few laps, Jiangxia gradually recalled some of the original road signs.
Fortunately, the construction technology in ancient times was not as good as that of later generations, and the environment did not change much, otherwise Jiang Xia really didn't know if he could find the Guannan Palace.
Finally, Jiang Xia saw the two iconic unicorn stone statues. This is Li Zhiba specially looking for craftsmen to build, he thinks that the stone lion at the door is too ordinary, and it is not domineering enough, so there are these two unicorn stone statues.
Jiang Xia, Xiao Shu, and Haida jumped into the Guannan Palace, and then walked around the huge palace quickly.
The palace is heavily guarded, if it weren't for the fact that the three of them were all first-class masters, I am afraid it would be really easy to be discovered.
In the end, Jiang Xia found that Li Zhiba's study was lit up, so he asked Xiao Shu and Hai Dayou to hide first, and he picked up a stone and threw it into Li Zhiba's room.
"Who!" Li Zhiba's still deep voice sounded, he opened the door and walked out, looking left and right with a wary expression.
At this moment, Jiang Xia ran eight steps to catch up with the cicada, and his figure rushed to Li Zhiba quickly, and rushed into the study with Li Zhiba in his arms.
Li Zhiba is also a practitioner, and as soon as he entered the study, he had a few lightning moves with Jiang Xia. In the end, the two clapped each other and took a step back.
Li Zhiba looked at Jiang Xia in surprise and shouted, "Jiang Xia?"
Jiang Xia smiled slightly and said, "It's been a long time, Lord Wang." ”
"Oh, are you really a bastard?" Li Zhiba walked over with a smile and grabbed Jiang Xia's shoulders, as if he was looking at some kind of livestock sold in the market, looking Jiang Xia up and down with extremely strange eyes.
Li Zhiba shook his head and said to himself: "You Han people have a saying, saying that being a good person does not live long, and the disaster will last for a thousand years. It's so fucking unfair that you bastard haven't seen you for so many years, and you still look like you were the little white face you used to be. ”
"Each other, aren't you the same old brute as you were at the beginning?" Li Zhiba took a bite ......of a "bastard", how could Jiang Xia's character not sneer at each other.
Li Zhiba was not angry, and smiled slightly. He stretched out his hand to support Jiang Xia's shoulders and said, "Come, you cooperate with me, stand still first." ”
Jiang Xia stood in place with some confusion, not knowing what Li Zhiba was preparing to do.
Li Zhiba took a step back, and then suddenly slapped Jiang Xia with a backhand.
But Jiang Xia is now also a master of the three major tripods, and he subconsciously lowered his head and avoided Li Zhiba's slap.
Li Zhiba opened his mouth and scolded: "You bastard, do you know that you have hurt the king!"
