Start: Datang Wanli a lonely city

Chapter 321
On the second day after holding on to the defense line, Hu Biao and others waited until very late, but they still did not wait for the liaison envoys sent by Tong Guan, Zhong Shidao and others.

For a moment, they seemed to be completely forgotten by everyone in this world.

It is precisely because of this reason that Hu Biao and others kept thinking about this matter, and they did not fall asleep until late at night.

He was so sleepy that he fell asleep in a daze.

It's just that what they don't know is that they are definitely not completely forgotten, it's just the consideration of those big shots, and it's too late to pay attention to them.

The reason is that there is such a huge cognitive difference.

It is entirely because of these modern people, although they have acquired a far higher level of knowledge and insight than most people in this era from the Internet, books, TV and other media.

But to put it bluntly, these people are just ordinary people in the modern plane.

There are some things that they rarely come into contact with, or they have come into contact with them, and they are far less proficient than Tong Guan, Zhong Shidao, Wang Ting, etc., who have held important positions in the court for many years.

Because that stuff is called politics.

Politics is not something that can be learned without a teacher by reading a little data and film and television dramas; but it takes years of honing in related positions before you can truly understand it bit by bit.

So, there are a lot of things that need to be improved for the members of the Xuange Battalion.

Not only martial arts, but also political knowledge.

When Hu Biao and the others were bumpkins, they still naively thought in their hearts that as long as they made the so-called great achievements, they would be taken seriously by the relevant personnel.

Then, take advantage of the situation to develop and grow stronger, when dealing with subsequent system characters.

I don't know at all, how many people are behind them, secretly calculating them, treating them as pawns that can be consumed...

In Xiongzhou City, in Hejianfu City further back.

The original magistrate's office, after the formation of the Liao army, was taken by Tong Guan, the Xuanshuai, as his temporary Xuanshuai's residence.

At this moment, he has been in charge of the military power of the Great Song Dynasty for [-] years, and has made great achievements in attacking Xixia and pacifying Fangla.

Tong Guan, who was called the Six Thieves by later generations, this dead eunuch, was sitting upright at the head of the festival hall; just sitting there, he had a look of prestige.

That's right!There is nothing wrong with Gu Pan Ziwei's statement.

It's true that Tong Guan is a eunuch, but he looks like a gentleman in appearance; his figure can definitely be described as tall and burly in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Coupled with his dark skin, he looked as hard as a rock.

More importantly, a string of beards grew out of this eunuch's chin, not something that was glued on artificially.

Not only does he not look like a eunuch, but if he can put on a mighty armor and hold a weapon in his hand, many people will believe that he is a mighty general.

Amidst the bursts of noise, Tong Guanzheng looked at his confidants without saying a word, expressing his views on the latest situation; because the matter is of great importance, there is currently a heated debate in the festival hall.

Talk!During a day yesterday, Tong Guan was still in Hejian Mansion at that time.

The emotion in his heart completely experienced a violent ups and downs transformation from hell to heaven.

Including at the beginning, when I heard that the army of the sect masters and Taoists was broken, they were defeated after being chased by the Liao soldiers; even the life and death of the old gentleman himself was unknown, and he was devastated under such a blow.

He wished that the old man Zhong Shidao died earlier, so as not to prevent him from dividing the Western Army.

But if he was a teacher, he really died in this chaos. Under the attack of those opponents in the court, even the officials would not be able to protect him.

In the middle of a little time, I heard someone taking the initiative to snipe at an important place in the field, temporarily blocking the surprise of the Liao soldiers.

And at the last moment, it was confirmed that the old Xianggong was out of danger, and the huge turnaround of the Liao soldiers' retreat was completely relieved.

As for the news that it reached the ears, the news that Yelu Dashi, the actual coach of the Liao Kingdom, died after being hit by an arrow, was completely ignored by Tong Guan and others.

It's not that it doesn't matter, it's just that they instinctively don't believe it.

But even so, at that time he was indeed full of great gratitude to Hu Biao and others who played a key role in the above-mentioned comeback process.

The problem is, in the hearts of ancient politicians like them, the so-called gratitude is far less than the actual benefits.

Soon the burst of gratitude in his heart passed, and what remained were some more crucial things for his own interests.

For example: After this battle, the leaders of the Western Army, such as Zhong Shidao, will definitely use the excuse that their troops and equipment have suffered huge losses in this battle, insufficient food and salaries, low morale, etc., to show that they are unable to fight anymore go down.

I will not continue to send troops, and continue to cross the Baigou River to attack Liao.

When they delay for a while, who knows what the officials and other opponents of the court will think of themselves, and will there be some other changes?

Even if they force Zhong Shidao and others to send troops, it is estimated that those people will just pretend to be pretending, and they will even deliberately lose one or two more games, throwing all the responsibility on themselves.

This is absolutely unacceptable to Tong Guan who wants to rely on his achievements in regaining Yanyun sixteen prefectures to become king.

In short, compared to the above-mentioned things, sincerity is not that important to contact Hu Biao and his group, and it doesn't matter if it takes a while.

The subordinates quarreled fiercely until Xuan Zan hurried in and whispered something in Tong Guan's ear.

Under the excited expression, Tong Guan's thick-knuckle palm slapped hard on the table.

He yelled out a sentence: "You don't need to argue anymore, just received the definite news, it is true that Yelu Dashi was hit by an arrow, but unfortunately he was seriously injured and survived.

At this moment, it is reasonable to control Hu Biao in our hands and let him speak according to our thoughts; Zichong, work hard, and immediately run outside the city of Xiongzhou to bring back that Hu Biao. "

"Here~" After a man heard the words, he immediately got up and responded.

In the following time, he led people to set off overnight...

******
At the same time, in the Baozhou Shun'an Army, that is, Gaoyang* County in the modern plane, almost all the high-level Western Army members who participated in the battle against Liao were gathered here.

Among them, there is not only the soul figure of Zhongshidao.

There are also his younger brothers, Qin Feng Lu Jinglue envoy Zhong Zhong who is known as Xiaozhong Xianggong; Xihe Lu Jinglue envoy Yao Gu, the backbone of the Western Army and others.

They all hurriedly retreated here after planting the teacher's way, and came here after getting the news.

Because they were in various places before, although it was not too late to get the news, when they arrived here, it was already this afternoon.

When they arrived, they naturally closed the door immediately and began to discuss.

What are you discussing?Just as Tong Guan and the others predicted, they had unified the caliber in advance, and used various excuses to delay the subsequent dispatch of troops.

On the one hand, it was because he didn't want that boy to get what he wanted.

After all, if Tong Guanzhen took back the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, because of the weak combat effectiveness of the forbidden army on all roads in Hebei, then their western army would face splitting up, leaving a part to sit in Yanjing.

Then the entire Western Army will be greatly reduced in strength.

On the other hand, to put it bluntly, these people were a little scared of being beaten after seeing the real combat effectiveness of the Liao soldiers.

As for Hu Biao's life-saving grace, it is not so important in comparison.

In the end, when the discussion reached midnight, these veterans who had been running around for days were already tired.

At this time, the leader of his personal army stepped forward with a look of joy, and reported the news that confirmed that after Yelu Dashi was shot by an arrow, his injury was far more serious than originally expected.

Immediately, a cold light flashed in Zhong Shidao's eyes, knowing that the importance of Hu Biao, the little commander who was like cannon fodder, had already increased a lot.

So a small group of cavalry set off overnight under his instructions.
