The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

Emperor Daojun walked around the hall with the steps of a great hero.

He looked high-spirited and satisfied, with tigers leaping and dragons walking, and the wind blowing.

I just read the military report from the Xixia spies, and I know many things in more detail. The traitor actually destroyed Tie Yaozi in the previous battle.

That's an iron kite!

Li Yuanhao's greatest reliance since the founding of the country, he relied on this weapon to defeat the attacks of the Song Dynasty many times. If Xixia had no iron kite, it would have been beaten by the Song Dynasty and retreated to the Hanhai Desert, and the country might have been destroyed.

And not only Tie Yaozi, but also Hengshan Bubazi, Hengshan Bubazi was almost wiped out!

Without these two armies, wouldn't Xixia be just a sick cat without teeth and would eventually be defeated?

That traitor might really destroy Xixia completely, and then occupy the fertile land west of Hexi.

But how can such a great contribution, a feat that has been passed down through history, be allowed to be monopolized by that traitor! He clearly deserves a share!

This is the work of destroying the country! Spread through the ages and leave a name in history!

Even though it has been announced to the world that Nizi's attack on Xixia was caused by him, it is still not safe. It is really not safe.

Although the traitor didn't jump out to refute, it was because he was sensible, but if after occupying the land in Hexi, the traitor directly...claimed king and hegemony, wouldn't everything be revealed?

Even if it can be said that he rebelled against his son and became ambitious after wiping out Xixia, it doesn't sound good. After all, Xixia is not in his own hands! Then wouldn’t his own achievements be greatly compromised?

Emperor Daojun walked faster and faster on the ground, taking Tai Chi and Bagua steps around the main hall. The pace of the hero of the generation began to become a little elegant and fairy-like. Finally, he got tired. He went to the table and picked up the white jade lotus fly whisk and put it behind his arm. Damn, what a moral person, the Emperor Taiqing.

The palace maid brought a glass of crystal wine, and just after drinking a small cup, another military intelligence report came from the Privy Council.

Since the Fang La incident, especially since the troops were sent to attack Liao, Emperor Daojun issued an edict that all military intelligence and war reports should be sent directly to the palace without any delay.

It turns out that internal affairs were handled by Zhongshu, so Wang Fu concealed Fang La's rebellion before, while foreign affairs were handled by the Privy Council. But now that Tong Guan and Cai You are not around, they send them all to the palace, regardless of whether they are inside or outside. Daojun It was rare for the emperor to be diligent for a while.

Seeing that the Privy Council had sent it, he knew that it was either Xixia or Liao affairs, so he hurriedly took it over to take a look.

The military report is not a copy. Look at the top first. As you look at it, your face turns red and your breathing becomes rapid. Then you reach out your hand and slap the dragon case hard, and shout loudly: "It's settled, it's settled!"

It was written clearly in the military report that it turned out to be the battle of Xiakou Pass by King Qin. He defeated more than 80,000 Xixia troops and destroyed countless enemies. The three military supervisory departments of Jingsai, Jianing and Xiangyou were all defeated.

The most important thing is that Brother Richard's army and horses were wiped out, and he fled in embarrassment, heading north without knowing the direction.

Emperor Daojun took another sip of wine, his eyes a little red: "Bring me the map!"

Zhang Di immediately held up the map from the side. Emperor Daojun unfolded it and said in a trembling voice: "We'll be there soon. We'll hit Xingqing Mansion soon. It's just past Shunzhou. It's just past Shunzhou. Shunzhou ...How many more troops can Li Ganshun still have to garrison? Hahahahahaha!"

He laughed ecstatically, and Zhang Di beside him also laughed with him, but he was a little confused in his heart. This Xixia was attacked by the King of Qin, why were the officials so excited? Even if he can declare the world and take some credit, the King of Qin will never hand over Xixia. The King of Qin... wants to do big things.

"According to my decree, ask the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War to work together to change the name of the Xixia geography. The original Twelve Supervisors and Military Division... will be changed to the Five Routes, and then report to me!"

Emperor Daojun laughed while talking, thinking that I am really a very smart person. I can actually think of such a solution. As long as the traitor destroys Xixia, I will directly declare to the world and rename the original geography of Xixia. If he wants to become the king and hegemony himself, then directly convict him of rebellion and prove that the Xixia territory originally belonged to me!

After he conveyed the order, he continued to look at the military situation below, which was all from the Liao Kingdom. However, the more he looked at it, the worse he looked. The excitement and joy just now were completely gone, and his face became darker a little bit. .

"What! I'm so angry!" Emperor Daojun slapped the table.

He was also slapping the table. Just now he was beaming and excited, but now he was furious and furious.

The maid on the side was so frightened that she immediately took two steps back. Emperor Daojun stood up and slammed the military newspaper in his hand to the front.

"Trash, all trash, all useless things!"

Emperor Daojun's shoulders were shaking with anger. The military intelligence report did not convey any major news. He only said that Yanjing City had not yet been captured. Both sides had losses, but it would only be captured sooner or later. At most, within half a year, Yanjing would definitely be captured. Recover all sixteen states.

"It's been winter for half a year, half a year, half a year, what city can we attack!"

Emperor Daojun roared, isn't this bullying him? There is no way to attack a city in winter. In winter, the clothes are so heavy that it is difficult to expose your hands and feet. If you are outside, you will be numb from the cold, so what city can you attack!

Is this to fool him into not knowing anything? At least he still knew whether he could fight in winter. What was Tong Guan thinking? He couldn't defeat Yan Jing, but he used such words to perfunctory him!

What's more, I'm afraid that the treacherous son will wipe out Xixia in half a year. How will he regain Yan Yunqian by then? The great achievement of regaining Yanyun is truly his, and this is the safest.

Emperor Daojun stood there to wait for a long time, then asked Zhang Di to lay out ink and paper, and began to write a letter to Tong Guan, ordering Tong Guan to capture the city of Yanjing within three months before the winter weather freezes. If you can't get it, just raise your head and see me!

At this moment, under the Yanjing City, people were tightly surrounded from all sides, and the company camp was unknown for how many miles.

Tong Guan frowned in the Chinese army's tent and attacked the city dozens of times, but he was still unable to break the defense and capture the city.

Yanjing is a majestic pass, a great city, a choke point, and an important way out of the pass.

This city has always been strengthened, repaired, and added defenses no matter which force occupied it or whether it was the unification of the world.

Therefore, Xiongguan has always been here. The Liao Kingdom has always been built as a gateway to the north and south, and it is guarded by capable ministers and generals such as Xiao Qian and Yelu Dashi. It is really difficult to break through it for a while.

Tong Guan frowned and looked at the generals in front, and then at King Yun Zhao Kai who was sitting high up beside him, and said: "Procrastinating like this is not the answer. Once the weather turns cold, winter comes, and the weather is freezing, it will be even more impossible to capture this city. ." The generals were silent, and then Zhao Kai said: "Privilege Tong, is there no other way to break the city besides attacking by force?"

Tong Guan shook his head and said: "In this kind of city, there is no other solution except consumption. Unless it is in chaos, there may be some opportunities. However, in Yanjing City, Xiao Qian and Yelu Dashi are both here. These two people have always been good at it." When it comes to governing the army, it is impossible to cause chaos. As for someone who wants to rebel and join us, and cooperate with our army internally and externally, the chance is even slimmer, almost wishful thinking."

Zhao Kai said "Oh" and stopped talking. Before sending out the army, Emperor Daojun specially asked him to have a secret conversation and told him to just sit in charge of the central army and not get involved in the war. Everything was left to Tong Guan. He also knew that he had no strategy, so he just After asking, he remained silent.

At this time, Cai You said: "What will happen if we continue to attack hard regardless of the cost?"

Cai You's current official position is Tongzhi Privy Councilor, which is equivalent to deputy privy envoy. He is waiting for Tong Guan to become an official so that he can become the leader of the Xifu.

After Yanyun was recovered, Tong Guan would definitely retreat, because Tong Guan wanted to be crowned king, and the one who restored Yanyun would be the king. This time Tong Guan led the army and served as the governor of Yanshan and Yunzhongfu Road. When the Six Prefectures are restored, Tong Guan is taken back, so he must abide by the late emperor's decree and be crowned king.

But Yanjing was still lingering, and Cai You couldn't help but be anxious. He was anxious to take charge of the Xifu Privy Council, so he thought about forcing it open, not knowing what would happen.

Tong Guan smiled when he heard this. He knew that Cai You was anxious, but why was he not anxious? He was already quite old, and it took his martial arts skills to cheer him up. He wanted to be crowned king as soon as possible and enjoy it as soon as possible. He had been tired of the affairs of the court for a long time, and he wished he could The battle has been finished early and the troops have returned to the court.

"If others are defending the city, we can continue to attack by force..." Tong Guan shook his head and said: "But Xiao Qian and Yelu Dashi are afraid that they will not succeed. These two are both good soldiers. When the city cannot be conquered, the troops will be lost and the generals will be lost. It is not good for our army. The so-called centipede insects are dead but not stiff. If they bite them back and capsize the boat in the gutter, it will be bad, so it is not easy to do things that cause damage."

Cai You opened his mouth when he heard this. He didn't know how to fight, so now he didn't know how to fight. He touched his thin beard and his face was filled with sorrow.

At this moment, Xin Xingzong said: "Your Majesty, I wonder how the Jin soldiers captured Zhongjing and Shangjing? Those two cities were also strong, but they were captured quickly. Is there any special way to capture this Liao city?"

Tong Guan glanced at him and felt slightly unhappy. The Xin family brothers and others were all his direct descendants, but direct descendants were direct descendants. This attack on Liao made him a little annoyed.

Not only were they scrambling for credit along the way, but when they arrived at Yanjing City first, they even disobeyed orders and attacked the city without permission, resulting in the loss of many troops. At this moment, they did not mention the Jin Kingdom's easy capture of Zhongjing and Shangjing. Wouldn't it be to enhance others' ambitions and destroy one's own prestige, saying that one is not as good as Wanyan Zongwang and Zonghan?

"The Jin people may have another way, and how come there are people like Xiao Qian and Yelu Dashi in those two cities!" Tong Guan said lightly.

"Now that the Jin people are in charge of the two capitals, it is a bit of a joke to see that Song Dynasty has been unable to defeat Yanjing for a long time." Zhao Kai didn't want to speak at first, but he couldn't help but said. He felt in his heart that the Jurchens may not be that strong, but they are definitely right. There are special means to seize Liao City, so that there is no disadvantage. However, the Song Dynasty has not fought with the Liao Kingdom for decades, so it is not good at and does not know those means.

Hearing this, Tong Guan felt even more unhappy, but he smiled and said, "What do you think, King Yun? I am all ears."

Zhao Kai thought to himself, what insights can I have? If I had any clever plans, wouldn't I have told them long ago to break Yanjing? Why do I have to worry about it here?

However, when he saw Tong Guan saying this, he didn't want to say no, and said: "Since we have formed an alliance with the Jin people, we might as well ask them how to attack the city."

Tong Guan was slightly startled when he heard this, and said to Qi Ai: "This seems a little bad, right? Didn't it mean that Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures were captured by themselves?"

Zhao Kai said: "What's wrong with this? I'm not asking them to borrow troops or asking them to help attack Yanjing. I just ask them if there is anything they can do. At the most, I can just pay some gold and silver."

"This..." Tong Guan thought for a while and felt that Zhao Kai was right. He just asked the other party if he had any means to attack the city, and he did not want to borrow troops. If he did, he would just spend money to buy it and leave Yanjing as soon as possible. It's only right, but this kind of thing must not be publicized, otherwise his reputation will be greatly damaged.

He, Tong Daofu, has been fighting for most of his life. Although he has lost and won, he always wins and loses based on his own ability. If it is not good, it is not good. He has not been reduced to asking some foreign barbarians for advice. If people know this, his reputation will be ruined in his life and it will make everyone laugh. , so it must be done secretly.

"Your Highness, this matter is related to the reputation of our Great Song Dynasty. We must... secretly send someone to inquire." He thought carefully, tied this matter to the reputation of the Great Song Dynasty, and removed himself.

"This..." Zhao Kai thought for a while and felt that what Tong Guan said made sense. If the Song Dynasty could not attack the city and asked the Jin Kingdom for a solution, it was always easy to talk about it. If you don't do it well, you will be scolded.

"Then send someone over secretly. No one is allowed to leak this matter, which will expose the military law enforcement!" Zhao Kai said as he glanced at the generals below.

The generals below looked at each other in confusion. Who would say such embarrassing things to others? An army of more than 100,000 and 200,000 people could not conquer a single city, so they had to ask the Kingdom of Jin for advice. Who would do such a stupid thing if they said that the people who were lost were all their own family members.

Tong Guandao: "Your Highness, if this is the case, then I will arrange for someone to go to Zhongjing. Wanyan Zongwang happens to be stationed in Zhongjing right now. Just go and ask him."

Zhao Kai nodded: "This matter should be done immediately, otherwise Yanjing will delay, lest the official Long Yan will be angry and impose a crime, which will be difficult for you and me to bear."

Hearing the words, Tong Guan stood up and bowed slightly: "I know, I will make arrangements now..."

The Dading Mansion in Zhongjing of the Liao Kingdom was the companion capital of Linhuang Mansion in the upper capital. It also contained the Liao Emperor's palace, but the Liao Kingdom was rough in these matters. It was said that the palace was just a larger residence.

Wanyan Zongwang was reading the newspaper in this mansion, his face was gloomy, he coughed from time to time, covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and his breathing was very unsteady.

The letter was sent by Tong Guan. He frowned. The content of the letter made him feel a little unbelievable. How could this Song Dynasty person bring up such a thing?

Actually asked about the secret method to defeat Liaocheng? You also said that you can exchange gold and silver for tactics? Could it be a joke? Doesn't it look like there's any fighting at all? !

Wanyan Zongwang let out a long breath. He had heard of Tong Guan, the commander-in-chief of the Song Army. He was said to be a famous general. Could it be that the rumors were false? Isn't it just a straw bag? Otherwise, why would you ask such a thing?

He thought about it for a moment and suddenly thought that Lin Chong was Tong Guan's disciple, so he sent an order to ask someone...

Lin Chong traveled westward with the Jin army and has been under the command of Wanyan Zongwang. He has accumulated many military exploits and has been promoted to the position of commander.

At this moment, he was practicing his sword in the courtyard, and all he saw was that he looked like a ghost, coming and going very quickly, and his figure was erratic and difficult to detect.

The sword in his hand is even more treacherous. Even under the sun, there is a chill, swiftness and evil, as if a ghost is rampant at night.

There are seventy-two sword techniques in total, and he transformed the Sun-Turning Needle into one. Although the Sun-Turning Needle was powerful, it was not suitable for fighting in military formations, so he transformed the needle techniques into sword techniques and divided them into several paths.

He gave this set of swordsmanship a rather powerful name, and the word had nothing to do with the Sun-Transferring Needle, but it was called the Zhuxie Swordsmanship!
