Chapter 173: Liang Yiyi
"Pingxia City is a great victory! Zheng'er wins! ”
In Fan Fuzhong, when Ma heard the news, he was immediately ecstatic, and his heart that was originally seven up and eight fell to the ground.
"Young Master, the evil side is invincible! Can't even stand it in Western Xia? Steward Fan said excitedly.
With the good news, Kaifeng City has already spread the story of the battle of Pingxia City, and naturally knows that all kinds of magic in Pingxia City are from the young master's side.
Ma Shi snorted coldly and said: "What is an evil formula, what can defeat Western Xia is a good prescription?" ”
Steward Fan slapped his mouth, and hurriedly said: "It's the next person's speech, the prescriptions prescribed by the young master are all good prescriptions for ten thousand people, and now that he has defeated the Western Xia, I don't know how many people of the Great Song Dynasty have been saved." ”
Ma nodded with satisfaction.
"Quick! Send someone to report the good news to the lord immediately! Ma suddenly remembered Fan Chunli, who was far away in Bozhou.
Don't look at him talking all day long about breaking the leg of the rebel, now that Fan is going to Pingxia City, I don't know how worried he is now?
"Yes! Madam! Steward Fan responded.
"By the way, don't forget to give one to Miss Li too!" Ma's thoughts changed.
Once upon a time, she was extremely dissatisfied with Li Qingzhao's life as a masterpiece and death as a ghost hero's poem, but now it has long since disappeared.
It's just that she still has some taste in her heart, and now it's not her who knows her son best, but another woman.
"Madam, don't worry, the villain will do it!" Steward Fan immediately went down to prepare.
…………
Bozhou!
Today's Bozhou relies on the rapid expansion of the traditional Chinese medicine hospital, which can be described as a smooth sail, and has become the new pharmaceutical capital of the Great Song Dynasty.
However, in the eyes of outsiders, Fan Chunli, the prefect of Bozhou, who has infinite scenery, has a sad face.
Without him!
Just because he was promoted because of the rebel, and now his sorrow is also because of the rebel.
"The rebel is simply ignorant of the height of the sky, and the military is dangerous! How could it be that he could be mixed with as a healer? Fan Chunli said hatefully.
"Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving Dan to take care of the sweat."
This rebel said it lightly, the 500,000 Western Xia army besieged Pingxia City, it can be described as nine deaths, Fan Zheng is the only son of the Fan family's third room, if he is unfortunately martyred, the third room will not be the last.
What's more, not all those who can be written into the history books are successful, when Xu Xi insisted on building Yongle City, resulting in the death of 200,000 soldiers and civilians in the Great Song Dynasty, I am afraid that it will also be written into the history books for 10,000 years.
"Is there no one in the civil and military officials of the Great Song Dynasty and the Manchu Dynasty, and my Fan family is not as good as the weak crown son Lang to go to the battlefield?" Fan Chunli said indignantly.
"In case ......."
Fan Chunli had a stirring spirit in his heart, if Fan Zheng repeated Xu Xi's mistakes, I am afraid that not only would he be ruined, but also the reputation of the Fan family would be ruined.
"But although this rebel is rebellious, he is also a little quick, and he is not without hope to protect himself." Fan Chunli only remembered the name of the evil doctor of the rebel son at this moment, and he loves evil prescriptions, and he can do unbelievable things every time, since he dares to go to the front line, he must be a little sure.
Fan Chunli suffered from gains and losses, and waited anxiously in his heart.
"Lord Prefect, a letter from Bianjing!" Suddenly, a servant hurried over and handed over an envelope.
Looking at the familiar Fan Mansion fire paint, Fan Chunli's heart sank, counting the days, I'm afraid that there should be news from the battle of Pingxia City.
At that moment, Fan Chunli took a deep breath, opened the envelope solemnly, looked down, and was stunned for a moment.
"Pingxia City is a great victory! Kill 50,000 Xia troops! ”
Fan Chunli looked at the good news in his hand in disbelief, if it wasn't for the Fan Mansion, he would definitely think it was a rumor.
Compared with Xu Xi's stubbornness and self-use, which made Da Song almost drag into the abyss, Fan Zheng's victory in Pingxia City was simply shocking.
"This rebel! When the old man returns to Beijing, he will definitely break the dog's leg! ”
After a long time, Fan Chunli gritted his teeth, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
………………
Yangzhou!
Li Qingzhao is leading the Yizhuang Volunteer Organization to raise money to fight against Western Xia.
Yangzhou is the hub of the canal, although the harvest is not as good as Kaifeng Luoyang, but it is still a lot of money, plus there are many rich places in the south of the Yangtze River, and the accumulation is still very considerable.
The biggest trouble is the tiring journey and the need to travel long distances, but when he thought of being able to help his beloved, Li Qingzhao immediately gritted his teeth and insisted.
Within a month, he traveled to 20 cities in a row to raise donations, which can be described as not touching the ground.
"Miss! The Fan family sent a letter, and the uncle won and would return safely in a few days. Li Qingzhao had just returned from fundraising, and Lian'er took the letter from the Fan family and said excitedly.
Li Qingzhao took the letter.
Smile confidently.
She never doubted whether Fan Zheng could return safely, because Fan Zheng had never let him down.
"Miss, since my uncle has won a big victory, and the battle of Song and Xia is about to end, why don't I wait and return to Beijing!" Lian'er couldn't wait.
Li Qingzhao shook his head and said, "No! Taking advantage of the great victory in Pingxia City, we must speed up fundraising, and at the same time set up Yizhuang in various places, so that the world will change in the future, and Yizhuang only needs to climb high and shout, and save a place with the world's charity, so that the world can reduce suffering. ”
Li Qingzhao did not forget the original purpose of the establishment of Yizhuang, and after the battle of Song and Xia, she saw the great role of Yizhuang.
Taking advantage of the name of the queen and the east wind of the great victory of the summer city, Yizhuang will spread all over the cities of the Great Song Dynasty, and will play a pivotal role in the future.
Sure enough, who knew that the newspaper was published all over the world, and the victory of Pingxia City immediately caused a sensation throughout the country.
The Great Song Dynasty did not defeat the Western Xia, but such a powerful victory was unprecedented, and more importantly, the Great Song Dynasty finally found a way to resist the Western Xia.
Then more news came, the Song general Yao Xiong led his troops to chase and kill the Xia army, and he also gained a lot, after the battle was cut off, the Xia soldiers were 3,000, and tens of thousands of prisoners were captured! ”
Yan Yan Road announced the imitation of Pingxia City to rebuild Jinming Village! Other roads of the Great Song Dynasty also took advantage of the defeat of Western Xia to form fortresses in many dangerous places to resist Western Xia.
Song Xia's offensive and defensive trends are also different.
"Fortress! Divine Arm Crossbow! Thunder! ”
More and more news of the battle of Pingxia City spread, which made the people of the world full of praise.
"What a fortress that never falls!" Countless people who know the soldiers are full of praise for the special structure of the fortress, many fortresses are built in dangerous places, but the fortress is artificially created on the plain with the help of special structures, and with the divine arm crossbow and earth-shaking thunder, it can be described as murderous.
"It just so happens that at the junction of the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom, there is no danger to defend, and as soon as the fortress comes out, it will definitely make the Great Song Dynasty fearless of the Liao Kingdom." A literati changed his mind.
The appearance of the fortress can be said to solve the urgent need of the Great Song Dynasty, all the time, it was the Song and Xia wars, once the Song army had the advantage, the Liao State was forced to reconcile, the Great Song had to give in, it was not that the Great Song Dynasty lost the sixteen states of Yanyun, lost the Great Wall of natural danger, once the Liao army went south, the Great Song Dynasty will be devastated.
Now with the danger of the fortress, although the Great Song Dynasty did not defeat the Liao State, it finally had the power to protect itself.
The whole country of the Great Song Dynasty rejoices!
And Western Xia was in an uproar.
"Western Xia is defeated!"
The Western Xia was in a state of panic.
The Song and Xia have been at war for many years, and the Western Xia has not been defeated, but there has never been such a desperate defeat this time.
The 500,000 army besieged Pingxia City, not only did not make an inch, but lost 50,000 soldiers, and when the army retreated, the Song army seized the opportunity to sneak attack, and once again lost the army and lost the generals, which was simply a shame.
Xingqing Mansion, the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Liang Yiqi's face was solemn, even if he returned to Xingqing Mansion, a roar couldn't help but appear in his mind.
"Great Song Firearms!"
Liang Yikui firmly believed that there would not be too many firearms in Pingxia City, and as long as the Xia army attacked again, it would definitely be able to capture Pingxia City.
However, Liang Yikui immediately declined, as Wei Ming Ah Wu said, if he wants to break through Pingxia City, I am afraid that the only way to exhaust the earth-shattering thunder of the Song army is to fill it with the lives of Western Xia soldiers.
"Lord Qiyu, there is a Song merchant who asks to see him, saying that there is information about the Great Song firearms!" A Liang Mansion is humane.
"Soon, please?" Liang Yikui's heart was shocked, and he said busily.
Soon, an ordinary-looking Song merchant entered the Liang Mansion, and when he saw Liang Yikui, he said respectfully: "Lu Dong, a merchant of the Song Kingdom, has seen the Prime Minister of the Kingdom. ”
Liang Yiqi looked at Song Shang carefully, and said suspiciously: "You really know the information of the Great Song Firearms!" ”
Song Shang Lu Dong nodded and said: "Yes, the Great Song Dynasty firearm is called Earthquake Thunder, which was created by the evil doctor Fan Zheng based on the explosion of the folk gunpowder workshop, the inside is gunpowder, and the outside is an iron shell. ”
Liang Yikui nodded slightly, the earth-shaking thunder that Song Shang said was indeed exactly the same as the Song military firearms under Pingxia City.
"In addition, the blueprints for the construction of Pingxia City are also from the hands of the evil doctor Fan Zheng, called the Fortress, which can bring the lethality of the Divine Arm Crossbow to the extreme, and with the earth-shattering thunder, it is enough to create a city that will never fall." Song Shang Lu Dong said.
"Impossible! There is no city in this world that cannot be conquered! Liang Yiqi retorted proudly.
Lu Dong nodded and said: "What the Prime Minister said is very true, there is indeed no city in the world that cannot be attacked, but the original design of Pingxia City was to kill 100,000 enemy troops before exhausting the earth-shaking thunder, and Western Xia can afford the loss of 100,000 soldiers?" ”
Liang Yikui was suddenly shocked, a city needs to be broken by 100,000 soldiers killed in battle, such a heavy price, Western Xia can't afford it anyway.
"Who you really are, why do you know so clearly!" Liang Yi's eyes were sharp, and he forced Lu Dongdao to look.
Lu Dong avoided answering and looked around.
Liang Yikui understood, and immediately waved his hand to let the people around him retreat, leaving only his henchmen dead.
"Because Lu is a person from Lord Lu, the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty." Lu Dong said bluntly:
"Lu Xianggong's people?"
Liang Yiwei was suddenly taken aback, he naturally paid attention to the politics of the Great Song Dynasty, and naturally knew that Lu Dafang was the prime minister, but he didn't expect that Lu Xianggong would send someone to truthfully inform him of the secrets of the Great Song Dynasty.
"You are a spy of the Song people, so you are not afraid that your true appearance will kill you?" Liang Yiqi threatened.
Lu Dong was not afraid: "When Lu came to see the Prime Minister, he was ready to be loyal to the country, before he came, Lu thought that the Western Xia Prime Minister was a person with great ambitions, but now it seems that he is so blind that he killed the villain, and the Liang family is waiting to be wiped out!" ”
Liang Yiqi heard this! sneered and said: "Liang is the minister of state, and my sister is the queen mother, who dares to touch my Liang family." ”
Lu Dong sneered and said, "Back then, the power of the Wuzang clan was as good as that of the Liang family, but now? ”
Liang Yiqi's face changed suddenly, but he also participated in the elimination of the Liang family of the Wuzang clan back then, and naturally knew that the situation of the Wuzang clan was almost the same as that of the Liang family, and there was probably only one threat to the Liang family, that is, his nephew - Li Qianshun.
"Ten years ago, the Liang family escaped, and when the young emperor was in power, the Liang family could still be so lucky, I'm afraid the Liang family wouldn't even be able to retreat." Lu Dong asked rhetorically.
Liang Yikui's face was embarrassed suddenly, ten years ago, the Liang family took the initiative to imprison Xia Huizong, and he had already committed a royal taboo, and his nephew would really rest assured that the Liang family would be reassured if he was in charge of the government in the future?
Even if the queen mother's sister is here, the best outcome for the Liang family is to take the initiative to delegate power, is this really what he wants? ”
"Doesn't the Prime Minister want to follow the path of Emperor Wen of Sui? The Great Song Dynasty can help the Prime Minister. Lu Dong said bewildermently.
"Da Song would be so kind?" Liang Yiqi sneered.
Lu Dong said bluntly: "The Great Song Dynasty official family intends to end the Song and Xia years of war, as long as the Xianggong agrees that after the Liang family will be in the summer, the Song and Liang countries will always be together, and the Great Song Dynasty can help the Liang family when necessary." ”
Liang Yikui snorted coldly, he naturally knew that the Great Song Dynasty did not have a good heart, but as Lu Dong said, the Liang family has no way to retreat, and taking the initiative to delegate power cannot guarantee the preservation of life, and now the Liang family has only one way to go - the Liang family Daixia.
"Nope! Maybe the Liang family still has a way to go! Liang Yikui's heart moved, why didn't he follow his father's example, have a kiss with his sister, and marry his daughter to Li Qianshun, so that he could continue the wealth of the Liang family.
"Someone! Put this man in a dungeon and keep him under strict guard. Liang Yiqi said coldly.
Immediately, a group of dead soldiers swarmed in and imprisoned Lu Dong.
Lu Dong did not resist, but took the initiative to cooperate, for Liang Yikui's various choices, Da Song naturally had a thorough analysis, and naturally knew that Liang Yikui still had the road of marriage, but this road had already been blocked by Fan Zheng's evil party.
Kiss on kiss is equivalent to incest, and this news may have already spread all over the world.
In the palace of the Western Xia,
Liang Yiqi came out with the information he had obtained one by one, and the Xixia Baiguan suddenly gasped.
"Fortress, Divine Arm Crossbow, Heaven-shattering Thunder!"
Empress Dowager Xiao Liang's face was embarrassed suddenly, she had personally witnessed the power of the combination of the three in Pingxia City, if she hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, I am afraid that the Western Xia army would have suffered heavy losses.
"Ladies and gentlemen, how should this battle end?" Empress Dowager Xiao Liang looked around at the ministers and asked.
Liang Yikui said without hesitation: "Now that the envoy of the Liao State is in Bianjing, why don't we also send the envoy to sue for peace, and cooperate with the Liao State to coerce the Great Song Dynasty, as long as the Great Song Dynasty restores the previous year, the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty can stop fighting." ”
Empress Dowager Xiaoliang nodded, this is the consistent operation of Western Xia, won the plunder, lost the peace with the Great Song Dynasty and got another New Year's coin, under the mediation of the Liao State, the Great Song Dynasty had to recognize it even if he pinched his nose.
"Until we find a way to crack Pingxia City, this is the only way." Wei Ming Ah Wu said helplessly, the appearance of the earth-shaking thunder made the Great Song Dynasty defend the city much more powerful, and the Western Xia Kingdom was weak and few, and it couldn't withstand such consumption at all, and the Great Song Dynasty's strategy hit the life gate of the Western Xia.
Liang Yiwei saw that everyone had finished discussing, and said again: "Empress Dowager Qiqi, now that Your Majesty has reached the age of ten, according to the customs of Western Xia, it is time to be engaged to her noble daughter, and you can marry when you are an adult." ”
"Hmmm! Indeed! ”
Empress Dowager Xiao Liang nodded.
Liang Yiqi laughed and said: "The Queen Mother naturally knows that your little niece is smart and knowledgeable, so it is better to let the little girl and His Majesty make a marriage, you and my brother and sister just kiss each other, wouldn't it be a beautiful conversation." ”
Empress Dowager Xiao Liang couldn't help but move in her heart, she naturally saw her little niece many times, and she was quite close, if she could marry Qian'er, it would naturally be the best, and she could continue the wealth of the Liang family.
And the name Ah Wu changed his face, the Liang family has produced two queens in a row, and they all listen to the government, if there is a third queen, then the Western Xia is still surnamed Li?
At that moment, the famous Ah Wu's heart moved, and he thought of a rumor: "Empress Dowager Qi, Weichen is against it!" ”
In an instant, Liang Yiqi and Empress Dowager Xiao Liang frowned, staring at Wei Ming Ah Wu unhappily.
Wei Ming Ah Wu felt a chill in his heart, and hurriedly explained: "It's not that the lower officials are dissatisfied with the noble daughter of the Liang family, but according to the medical skills passed down from the Great Song Dynasty, there are endless regrets about kissing and kissing, and it is easy to have symptoms of disability and dementia. ”
"Is that so?" Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was suddenly shocked.
Liang Yi sneered and said, "It's just the evil prescription of the evil doctor Fan Zheng!" ”
Wei Ming Ah Wu smiled bitterly: "Although the evil doctor Fan Zheng is the sworn enemy of Western Xia, his medical skills are recognized by the whole world, and he is the leader of the Great Song Dynasty medical family. ”
Empress Dowager Xiao Liang suddenly fell into hesitation, emotionally, she naturally hoped that her son and the Liang family would be close to each other, but intellectually, she knew that once the kiss and kiss really had sequelae, it would be regrettable.
In the end, the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang still respected her mother's instinct, and decided immediately: "Since there is a future trouble with relatives, then this family business will be stopped!" ”
"Queen Mother!" Liang Yiqi suddenly felt anxious.
Empress Dowager Xiaoliang said categorically: "There is no need to mention this matter, the palace has already concluded about Qian'er's marriage, and the palace is ready to ask Liao for marriage." ”
Compared with the Liao and Song dynasties, the Western Xia Kingdom was small and weak, and now the Great Song Dynasty has artifacts such as earth-shaking thunder, and if you want to force the Great Song Dynasty to submit, the only way to win over the Liao Kingdom is to make peace with your relatives.
"The Queen Mother is wise!" Wei Ming, Ah Wu and other party ministers cheered one after another.
And Liang Yikui was cold in his heart, and the water spilled by his married daughter, Empress Dowager Xiaoliang's move was indeed beneficial to Western Xia, but it was a catastrophe for the Liang family.
