Lizhou West Road, Chuzhou City, Lizhou West Road Rongsi Yamen.

In the lobby, Lu Wende, the commander of Lizhou West Road, sat on the main seat, carefully looking at the letter of borrowing the road in front of him.

In the lower hall, the pacification of Lizhou West Road made Guo Zhengsun and the generals of Lizhou West Road sit separately.

On the chairs on the left side of the lobby, several Mongolian envoys had gloomy faces, bald and drooping hair, or Han Chinese hair buns, with different complexions.

Compared with the arrogance and arrogance when they entered the Song Dynasty in the past, the Mongolian envoys were obviously more polite in this meeting.

The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. Of course, it's just polite, and they're all patient.

For a long time, just when the Mongolian envoys were impetuous and about to burst out, Lu Wende put down the letter of state.

"General, you have also read the national letter, my Mongolian army wants to borrow the Great Song Dynasty, what do you think?"

The Mongols were making Su Buhan speak, and his words were already a little hurried.

The Mongolian army divided its troops into three ways to cut gold, and led the Western Route Army by Tuo Lei and Subutai, entered the Song realm from Fengxiang Mansion, passed through Hanzhong, went down along the Han River, passed through the two prefectures of Tang and Deng in Jinjing, and joined the Wokuotai army in the spring of next year, and took Bianjing directly.

If the Torre army could not be inserted into the back of the Jin State as scheduled, the Wokutai army might not be able to capture Kaifeng and destroy the Jin State in one fell swoop.

"Envoy, I don't read much, and I don't understand what you mean in this letter. Tell me about it yourself. ”

Lu Wende put down the letter and asked nonchalantly.

In front of these Mongolian envoys, it is necessary to be rude, and the rude the better.

"What the hell are you pretending to be Niang, you can't read and read for so long, are you playing Lao Tzu?"

Sure enough, the other deputy envoy Shu'er was furious, slapped the table and angrily reprimanded Lu Wende.

The last time I went to Jinling City to see Emperor Song, I was on fire. This time he was toyed with by a little Song General, and it was inevitable that he would be angry.

"Shu'er Che, don't be impatient!"

Su Buhan glared at Shu'er Che dissatisfiedly, and glanced at Li Changguo, the deputy envoy of the Han people on the side.

Li Changguo comprehended, hurriedly bowed, and hurriedly said to Lu Wende, who was looking at Shu'er Che coldly:

"General, we are just envoys, why is the general teasing. Our Mongolian country and the Jin Dynasty are enemies of the same heaven. To tell the truth, our army wants to borrow the Han River and go straight behind the Jin State through Yangzhou and Jinzhou. He also asked Da Song to provide grain and grass and arrange guides. ”

As a Han Chinese, Li Changguo had already sensed that the Song Dynasty was not good. It seems that the current Song army is very difficult to achieve by relying on coercion and intimidation.

"Borrow the Han water to provide grain and grass!"

Lu Wende's gaze, as well as Guo Zhengsun and the others below, were secretly frightened.

Sure enough, exactly as the emperor speculated, the Mongol army wanted to use Hanzhong to attack the Jin State.

First, they were frightened that the emperor was like a god and seemed to be an unpredictable prophet, and second, the Mongol army was heading south, which was already a certainty.

"Your envoy, your army has borrowed the way, this matter is very important, we must always report to the court, and wait for my Great Song Dynasty Emperor to issue an edict."

Lu Wende did not speak, and Guo Zhengsun spoke softly.

Song and Meng were originally opponents, and relations between the two countries were tense. At this time, he came to borrow the Tao and provide food and grass, where did he get his confidence?

"How long does it take to report to Emperor Song? You won't have to wait a few years, will you? I can wait, my Mongolian army can't wait! ”

Shu'er couldn't help but speak.

Playing people like monkeys, is it interesting?

"The Mongolian army can't wait, you can go back! Don't I use the Tao in the Great Song Dynasty, you have to break through? ”

Shu'er Che was arrogant and domineering, and all the generals in the hall were angry, and Lu Yuanting, the deputy commander, pointed at Shu'er Che and took the case.

coerced and intimidated in front of a group of Great Song Dynasty generals, thinking that this was the former Great Song Dynasty, and anyone could be wild!

I really thought that the Great Song Dynasty was the back garden of Mongolia, and I could come and go if I wanted.

"Your envoy, won't it be like in the Dinghai period, while talking about peace, while secretly seizing the city and killing the people of my Great Song Dynasty, right?"

Commander Cao Erxiong's face turned pale, and he sneered angrily.

The changes in Dinghai back then, and the blood debts of tens of thousands of Song people, can be repaid vividly.

"What, what do you want? Do you want to kill me? Do you want to be the enemy of my Mongol army? ”

Shu'er Che smiled coldly, and the knife was placed on the handle.

Jinling City was humiliated in front of Zhao Hong, and he would never let it happen again.

"What do you say? Are you threatening me Da Song? ”

Lu Wende stopped the angry generals, he looked at Shu'er Che and asked coldly.

"General Song, you prick up your ears and listen, if you don't borrow the way, our army will forcibly open the way. When the time comes, there will be countless casualties, but don't cry dad and call mother! ”

Shu'er Che was not afraid and fought with Lu Wende.

"General, don't get angry easily. It is a matter of friendship between the two countries, so it is better to be cautious in this matter and wait for the news of the imperial court. ”

Guo Zhengsun persuaded Lu Wende softly, but he didn't know if it was true or not.

"General, my Mongolian army is just going to destroy the Jin country. The Jin Kingdom and the Great Song Dynasty are also feuding, doesn't the Great Song Dynasty want to restore the Central Plains and wash away the shame of a hundred years? ”

Li Changguo said with a straight face, but he was calm.

Guo Zhengsun's words inexplicably gave him confidence, thinking that the Song people might agree to give way.

"The gold lord moved to Bian, and the Yellow River and Tongguan were in danger. If you go out of Baoji and enter Hanzhong, you can reach Tang and Deng in less than a month. When the golden people heard it, they would rather not say that I learned from the sky! ”

What Lu Wende, Guo Zhengsun and other Song generals didn't know was that the proposal of the Mongolian army to take advantage of the Song realm was the proposal of Li Changguo, a general of the Jin Dynasty, to Tolei.

"Li Changguo, what are you talking to them about? Whether they are willing to borrow the Tao or not, I don't care in Mongolia! When the time comes, as soon as our Mongolian army arrives, the Song people will be bleeding like a river, and they can't complain about others! ”

Shu'er Che said loudly, glaring angrily at the Song generals.

Guo Zhengsun persuaded Lu Wende to be cautious, making him mistakenly think that the Song people were weak and could be bullied, and his arrogance became even more arrogant.

"Kill him!"

"Kill this dog thief!"

The generals roared and cursed loudly.

In the lobby, Song Jiang spoke one after another, all of them angry.

"Generals, don't be impatient, big things are important, big things are important!"

Guo Zhengsun hurriedly persuaded the generals, looking very anxious.

"A few envoys, I have a word, please go back and bring it to Subutai and Torre."

Lu Wende's face was calm, and he waved his hand to stop the noise of the generals.

"General, did you agree to borrow the way?"

Li Changguo was stunned, and a glimmer of hope floated in his heart.

Su Buhan and Shu'er Che also looked at Lu Wende, wanting to know Lu Wende's answer.

"Your envoy, the matter of borrowing the Tao is very important, and we must always report it to the imperial court, and wait for my Great Song Dynasty Emperor to issue a decree. Whether it is a year or two years, before receiving the will of my Great Song Emperor, your army had better wait for the news and not act rashly. If you dare to use troops by force, you must not regret it in the future. ”

Lu Wende looked at Subutai and Li Changguo, word by word, and everyone in the hall could hear it clearly.

Everyone is angry, but the military order is like a mountain, and no one can disobey it.

"You hateful Song generals, all of them are cowards! Wait and see, when the time comes, my Mongol army will kill you with rivers of blood, and there will be no chickens and dogs! ”

Shu'er Che was furious, saliva flew sideways, and he roared and attacked.

"General, kill him!"

"Kill him!"

The generals said one after another, and some people couldn't help it, and they had already drawn their swords out of their sheaths.

"What did you just say? You repeat! ”

Lu Wende waved his hand to calm everyone. He looked at Shu'er Che and sneered.

"General Song, listen up! Wait and see, my Mongol army will kill you with rivers of blood, chickens and dogs! ”

Shu'er's face was red, and his voice was hoarse.

These hateful Song people, all yin and yang, do you really think you are afraid of them?

"Shu'er Che, is it that you are teaching martial arts in Jinling, and you are rude to my Great Song Emperor?"

Lu Wende leaned back in his chair, and his eyebrows suddenly became murderous.

When the news of Shu'er Che's presumptuous attitude to the emperor in Jinling Wutang came to the army, all the border generals were itching with hatred, which was regarded as a great shame. In the hearts of the generals, the emperor is more noble than a god, how can he tolerate the slightest disrespect from others.

Unexpectedly, this guy actually came to the Song Realm as an envoy, and he was still so arrogant.

There is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no way to go to hell.

Lu Wende looked at Shu'er Che, and his eyes had begun to be hideous.

"That's me! It's me, what do you want to do? Kind of come to kill me! Come ......"

"Kill him!"

Before Shu'er finished speaking, Lu Wende slapped the table and became angry, and he was angry.

At this moment, his patience had reached its limit.

"General, don't ......"

"Don't!"

Li Changguo and Su Buhan were both shocked and dissuaded, and Shu'er Che pulled out his knife with a "sigh" and protected it in front of him.

He had already seen the killing intent in Lu Wende's eyes, and subconsciously felt that it was not good.

The two sharps in the hall jumped out, tall and strong, with armor piercing their bodies, and the two of them held red tassel spears in their hands, and without hesitation, one left and one right, holding the gun and stabbing straight to Shu'er Che's throat and lower abdomen.

The red tassel trembled, the spear was steady and ruthless, like a poisonous snake, Shu'er was completely shocked, subconsciously separated the shot to the throat, staggered back, but the abdomen was suffered, and immediately there were bursts of sharp pain, and blood gushed like a spring.

Under the severe pain, Shu'er Che couldn't help but scream loudly, Li Changguo and Su Buhan were shocked, and subconsciously hurriedly dodged to avoid being killed by the other party.

The two spearmen of the Song army rushed forward and stabbed again, Shu'er screamed repeatedly, and fell to the ground, with several blood holes on his body, and blood continued to gush out, and soon stained the ground red.

Lu Wende waved his hand lightly, and the two pikemen withdrew their bloody spears, respectfully, and retreated to the corner.

Lu Wende looked at Shu Erche, who was constantly twitching on the ground in the hall, and snorted coldly in his nose.

"Two envoys, I am sorry that such a thing has happened. Do you want to bring back his body? ”

After killing the Mongolian envoy, a major war between the two sides was about to break out, and there was no longer the possibility of peace talks.

Let the storm come harder!

"General, have you considered the consequences of killing my Mongolian envoy?"

Li Changguo and Su Buhan quickly regained their composure, the two glanced at each other, and Li Changguo asked loudly.

The two countries exchanged troops, and they did not cut them off. If the Song people did this, it was no longer possible to borrow the way, and Torre would definitely be furious, and it was inevitable to attack the Song in the south.

"Envoy, this was just an accident, and it would have been a pity. Regarding the matter of borrowing the way, the envoy should go back and wait for the good news. ”

Lu Wende said softly, as if he had given an eviction order.

Now, he has lost interest in continuing to act.

"General, you have caused a big disaster, and you will bear the consequences!"

Li Changguo left a sentence, and Su Buhan and the others left without resignation, even ignoring Shu'er Che's corpse.

"I don't seem to be scared. He asked me to kill him, should I refuse? ”

Lu Wende whispered, and the generals in the hall burst into laughter.

These arrogant generals can't wait to fight on the battlefield with the other party.

"Brothers, are you all ready for the Tatar army to go south?"

Lu Wende's face turned pale and shouted loudly.

"It's all up to the general!"

The generals clasped their fists together and saluted.

"Wang Shixin, your 3,000 soldiers should guard the Dasan Pass, if the Tatar army goes south, don't block it, let them in. At that time, we will have reinforcements from our own officers and troops to block the retreat of the Tatar army to the north! ”

Lu Wende's first military order was first given to Wang Shixin, the guard general of Dasanguan.

"Tian Tunnel, abandon the Cattle Fort, take the 2,000 people of the department to withdraw into Fengzhou, and the 3,000 soldiers of the department and Fengzhou are controlled by Lu Yuanting."

Once the Mongol army marched south from the Dasan Pass, the first dangerous pass was the Cattle Fort. However, the area of the Ox Fort was narrow, and it was better to concentrate on the more dangerous Fengzhou, which was more able to cope with the invasion of the Mongol army.

Besides, it is necessary to let the Mongolian army in, otherwise how can you close the door and beat the dogs?

"Pan Fu, you guard Wuxiu Pass, and the two thousand people of Xianren Pass withdraw into Wuxiu Pass, and Pan Fu will control it to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Wuxiu Pass, like Dasan Pass, is a one-man pass and a thousand people can't open it. With 4,000 elite soldiers, the Mongol army could only divert south to Hanzhong.

"Cao Erxiong guards Xihezhou, Zhang Du guards Chengzhou, I sit in Chuzhou, and when the time comes, the Tatar army must not be allowed to enter Hanzhong eastward!"

Lu Wende hesitated for a moment, and finally said:

"Your Majesty has gone to Hanzhong to take up the town, aiming to boost morale and strike a blow at the invading enemy. The soldiers are brave enough to take the lead, kill the enemy and serve the country, and live up to the grace of God! ”

With the Mongolian army's character of revenge, a big war is about to break out. Moving out of the emperor is also to motivate his subordinates and ensure the smooth operation of this war.

"General, Your Majesty's will, let the Tatar army enter Hanzhong, and please enter the urn. At that time, our army will be from the west, and Yu Jue's reinforcements will be from Wuxiu Pass, and the two roads will go south to Hanzhong. With such a concentration of forces, the Tatar army could be killed and wounded to a greater extent, and they had no way to retreat. ”

Lu Wende was eager to make meritorious contributions, and he wanted to rectify it, so Cao Erxiong hurriedly persuaded him.

In case of a startling attack, the Mongol army could retreat from all parts of the Lizhou West Road, and the defenders of the various military states along the way were scattered, making it difficult to form effective casualties.

"On the battlefield, adapt to the situation, destroy the Tatars, and it is not too late to re-enter Hanzhong. I will report to Your Majesty first and see what His Majesty decides. ”

The stakes were high, Lu Wende hesitated for a moment, and finally did not dare to assert himself.

Sniping at the Mongolian army on the west road of Lizhou, if the grass startles the snake, then it will steal chickens and rice, and it will be a big thing, and the blame will not escape.

As for the field battle with the Tatar army, with the strength of the Song army now, he is not afraid at all.
