Chapter 53: Farewell, Yellow Flowers Extraordinarily Fragrant (3)

Wanyan Zongwang saw that the forward battalion was broken by Lu Xihua that day, pretending to be a small soldier, so he abandoned the big camp and fled westward, so he saved his life. Although Lu Xihua did not pursue again after killing Paidadanghai, and Wanyan Zongwang reorganized and counted the losses of the army and horses after the fact, it was only more than 2,000 people, but the morale of the army once fell to the bottom. Although this Kaifeng city is still surrounded by its own army of 50,000, at this time it is like a hot yam, you can see that you can't eat, and you will hurt yourself if you are not careful.

At this moment, I suddenly heard that the sergeant of the former army came to spread the word, and the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty sent someone to propose peace, and agreed at the moment to set the time for seven days later, and carried it out in his own camp, but put forward a condition, the stranger on that day must be present, and the Song envoy promised to send back, so he took the order and left.

Ali stood aside, saw the beginning and end, and said, "Why did the commander insist that stranger to come? Wouldn't it be better if we could get the peace agreement and the compensation and go?"

Wanyan Zongwang waved his hand, "You don't know, the spies in the city reported that the stranger is not a Song person." It is an overseas person, who came to the Great Song Dynasty a few years ago and settled down, and is still alone. If we can recruit them and treat them with sincerity, won't we be invincible in the world in the future?"

Ali frowned, "What if that stranger refuses?"

Wanyan Zongwang said with a smile, "The East Road army of Sticky Han will come to report quickly, and we will arrive in Kaifeng the day after tomorrow, and there will be a total of 150,000 troops and horses on our two routes." And there is a large amount of gunpowder in the army of Muhan, we set up an ambush, bury the gunpowder in one place, and lead him over, if that person knows each other well, but he doesn't know each other, and he wants us to be the enemy, we give an order, and ten thousand catties of gunpowder are cracked, how can he be killed?"

When Ali scratched this, he clapped his hands and said, "The big handsome is a good plan! The big handsome is a good plan!" and immediately went to arrange a specific place for the meeting.

The army of Sticky Han came to the city of Kaifeng, and there was a person with a beard, a pointed felt hat, several Yan Ling, a giant axe, and a black horse in his crotch, which was majestic. This person's name is called Yan Zongbi, the name of the vulture, it is the famous golden vulture in history, Lu Xihua mistook Pai Danghai for him last time, but he didn't expect that the vultures were under the command of the East Road army Sticky Han, and he came to Kaifeng in December. It was also the Yellow River that froze, and it was much easier for the Jin army to cross the river.

Mu Han is the son of the prime minister of the Jin State, and now in the Jin State is under one person under a million people, he is cautious, this time the troops were dispatched, slowly advancing, the Song soldiers and local armed forces who resisted along the way were wiped out, and the 100,000 army had almost no losses. Came to Kaifeng City to meet Wanyan Zongwang, but saw that the morale of the army was low, and he was surprised.

Wanyan Zongwang did not hide it, and brought the situation of the battle with the Song army in these days one by one, after listening to it, Mu Han also smiled bitterly, that stranger has an improper use, it seems that this invasion of the Song Dynasty can only ask for some benefits to go back. After hearing that Yan Zongwang wanted to recruit him and the follow-up strategy after the failure, Mu Han loudly agreed, and the marshals of the two armies immediately jointly made the final preparations. Jin Wushu also secretly made up his mind on the side, wanting to see the alien who could demoralize the army of the Western Road.

The arrival of Sticky Han added the last weight to Song Jinyihe, a full 150,000 army, surrounded Kaifeng all over the mountains and fields, and from a distance, the rolling military tents turned the surroundings of Bianjing into a white ocean. The Jin army's daily drills, orders to change guards, and snare drums can be transmitted to the city, and they are heard endlessly.

Five days later, the day of Song and Jin's peace.

When Song Qinzong heard the news that another large army of the Jin army had arrived outside the city, his face turned white with fright, and he grabbed Lu Xihua's hand, "Xihua save me! Xihua save me!"

Lu Xihua smiled and patted the back of Song Qinzong's hand, "Don't worry, the official family should not worry, Xihua will live up to the trust of the official, and make peace rules with the Jin country, so that the Jin people will retreat early, and return the capital to a quiet place." ”

When Song Qinzong heard Lu Xihua's words, he burst into tears, and hurriedly wiped it with his sleeve and held Lu Xihua's hand, "Xihua still has to take care of himself, the Jin people are cunning, let's send more money and food to them, don't have disputes." Jingshi can't live without Xihua!"

Lu Xihua was also speechless, as an emperor, he didn't think about how to strengthen the country and enrich the people, and he pinned the fate of the country on the ethereal immortals, and sighed in his heart. turned around and said to He Li, "Xianggong, let's go!"

He Li is the representative of the Song State of the Song and Jin Peace, Lu Xihua was proposed by the Jin people to be present, and Lu Xihua proposed to Song Qinzong that he escorted He Li to the Jin camp to negotiate peace, the two of them were enough, Song Qinzong was shocked, so he took Lu Xihua's hand and commanded, in his opinion, a prime minister is nothing, Lu Xihua is gone, and the Great Song Dynasty is dead.

He Li, as a civil servant, is iron-clad, and is naturally not afraid of the golden people, but in the end, the two of them are still a little weak in the end. Before the royal horse, he didn't go up after climbing three times, Lu Xihua stood behind He Li, and said, "Don't worry. Holding He Li's waist and moving upward, He Li got on the royal horse. Lu Xihua stepped forward and grabbed the reins of the imperial horse and said, "He Xianggong, Xihua will lead the horse for you." Let's go, let's meet the marshal of the Golden Kingdom!"

After speaking, Lu Xihua took the reins of the imperial horse, led the way in front, and went south along the royal street, towards Jinying. Song Qinzong took the ministers and bowed behind Lu Xihua, "Send He Xianggong!"

The common people of Kaifeng heard that the prime minister of the dynasty, He Li and He Xianggong, were going to Jinying to discuss peace alone, and they rushed to the royal street to see him off, and many old men and boys called He Xianggong's name loudly with tears in their eyes; there were even more women and strong men who bowed down to the ground and blessed He Xianggong with success; and some monks and Taoist priests recited words and prayed to the Buddha and Tianzun to bless the Great Song Dynasty. Although everyone didn't know Lu Xihua, when they saw that he dared to run the horse, they also threw flowers in their hands to Lu Xihua and raised their hands to praise Lu Xihua's courage.

All the way to the south, Xuande Gate, Zhuque Gate, and Nanxun Gate were opened in turn, and on the Nanxun Gate, Zhang Shuye led 10,000 soldiers to He Xianggong and Lu Xihua to salute the military.

He Li's heart is full of enthusiasm, the literati are so far, carrying the hope of those millions of people, there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of him, and it is estimated that he can also break into it. Lu Xihua also sighed in his heart, all of them are united, no matter how far away the time is, no matter whether this world is true or false, no matter where he comes from, he speaks the same words, writes the same words, and wears the same clothes with them, this is the heart of the nation, and he seems to understand something.

Sticky Han rode on his horse and looked at the two people and a horse who came out of Kaifeng City from a distance, and asked, "That bald man is the stranger you call stranger?"

Wanyan Zongwang said, "I haven't seen his true face, but since I dare to come here alone with the Song envoy, I guess it won't be wrong." ”

Ali Scrape and a few of his own soldiers asked carefully for a while and then said, "Marshal Qiqi, that person is the alien Lu Xihua, who suddenly appeared from the south seventeen days ago and broke the siege of our army in one fell swoop. Some of our officers and men have seen him, and it has been confirmed beyond doubt. ”

Sticky Han heard Ali's words, nodded and said, "What a spirit! Let's go back to the camp and wait for him!"

Jin Wushu looked at Lu Xihua who led the horse with hot eyes, this person is really heroic, and he should take a closer look in the camp for a while.
