I, Han Gaozu, actually traveled through Song Gaozong?

Chapter 144

"Scholar Li, are you still short of food?"

Li Xianzhong has a temperament like Liu Qi, and he is incompatible with Wang Yecha, so Wang De often calls him a "scholar".

When they got closer, Wang De got off his horse, and Li Xianzhong immediately went up to him:
"Why is there a shortage of food?"

Although Shouzhou had 3 people crammed into a small area, the whole country could be said to be united in this Northern Expedition, and there were no obstacles on the way.

The emperor gave a death order, and whoever dares to delay his revenge will end up just like Qin Hui. Under such coercion...

Food shortage?

Li Xianzhong was very puzzled by Wang De's question.

But before Wang De could answer, he asked a more important question:
"You didn't stay with His Majesty, why did you come to Shouzhou to care about me?"

"Could it be that the Jin people have retreated, or that the officials have led you to break through?"

After riding for more than a day, Wang De did not feel tired at all. He patted the snow on his armor and said:
"Don't mention it, I've been holding back in his mother's Yingzhou for several months, and I thought that the golden dog was big, but who knows, he didn't even dare to fight. He was trying to bluff people."

He was rambling, asking Li Xianzhong if he had a son for a while, and asking him what he had for dinner.

But even so, Li Xianzhong still put together those pieces of information abruptly.

It turned out that the emperor was staying in Yingzhou with everyone, and the weather was getting colder and colder, but none of the Jin people's follow-up troops could be seen.

They were only besieging the city on the one hand, and they didn't even move close to Yingzhou City... The emperor still wanted to take advantage of the favorable location of Yingzhou - the fortifications that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to build, so that the other side could enjoy it.

In this way, they will only think that they are waiting for the city to run out of food... just wait, anyway, it can be regarded as holding back so many people, and when the year is over, the emperor wants to eat these people. , and then directly into Kaifeng.

But just three days ago, there were a few twists and turns.

That day, the official family led everyone to gamble on the city wall as usual, but when they heard that the Jin army in the west had made a move, everyone was out of the way. How could they stand the provocation of such news, and they immediately became popular Face, said to use the head of the golden dog to cook wine and eat.

But instead of waiting for the army of Jin people, they waited for a group of Yue Fei's men... The man who came was none other than Dong Xian, the leader of Yue Shaobao's family who stepped out of the white army.

Who doesn't know the name of the Yue family's stepping white army, relying on this army last time, Yue Shaobao forcibly overcame the golden man's kidnapper horse, it can be said that it was fast, and when Dong Xian arrived at the foot of Yingzhou city, Everyone welcomed him in, only to find that he only brought 300 people with him!
With 300 people, they broke through the siege of the Jin army!
Li Xianzhong grew up in the army since he was a child. Whether it is the Iron Buddha of Jin Kingdom or the Iron Harrier of Xixia, he has seen it all. Now he hears that there are such troops in the world...Knowing that Wang Yecha is not a big talker, Li Xianzhong At that time, he clicked his tongue a little.

Seeing the astonishment on this man's face, Wang Yecha patted his head:
"Don't be too surprised. When Dong first arrived in the city, the officials wanted to reward him, but he refused, saying that they just wanted to make a breakthrough, but they didn't want the Jinren to even light their knives." , directly put them into the city."

"It's as if...it's deliberate."

Li Xianzhong bowed his head and thought for a while, and suddenly he felt a sense of enlightenment. Wang De smiled and said:

"You thought about it too, didn't you?"

"The golden man is not waiting for food to run out, but he has no intention of fighting us at all!"

"That's the reason!"

Wang Dexi reacted quickly, clapping his hands and saying:
"This pissed off His Majesty. He still wanted to use himself as bait to catch some big fish from the Jinmen, but he didn't want to be the one who bit the bait...hahaha."

Wang Yecha laughed wildly, this smile was full of the joy and bitterness of the emperor winning money from him.

Li Xianzhong looked at him strangely:
"You smile like that in front of His Majesty?"

Wang De looked at him: "Otherwise, why would I appear here?"

"Dong Xian said that they had cut off contact with the court for three days. The weather was already bad, so it's normal to be delayed on the road."

"But not only did we not see anyone coming from the court, even the generals who were sent to Lin'an, who were supposed to return to the army on time, were not seen for three days... They were in a stalemate with Jingou in Ruzhou. Knowing that there is a lot of food in the official's house, I thought to pay some first, and then make up for it when the time comes."

This seems to be no problem, but Li Xianzhong is still puzzled:

"Three days?"

"You also think it's strange, hey, damn it, why don't you say that Yue Shaobao can get things done? Li Qiong dog day refuses to accept Lao Tzu, so he is the only one... The official asked Mr. Dong: 'It's only three days, it's necessary ?'"

"Dong Xian said: 'Other people don't know, but the Han army under Yue Shaobao's rule, even if it is an hour behind, it means something serious happened'."

Li Xianzhong admired from the bottom of his heart: "I really can't wait for him to govern the army so strictly."

Although the military situation is as important as Mount Tai, as long as it is a human being, it is inevitable that there will be some accidents. As long as there are accidents, some errors are normal.

Just because Yue Pengju was away for three days, he thought about the future. They all said that there is no room for mistakes in marching and fighting, but how many people in this world can really do it?
"Of course the officials gave the food, and thought that if something happened, the two Huaihe Rivers would be the same, so they sent people to each army to ask if there was any shortage of food, and Yingzhou could make up for it. .”

"But what happened in Lin'an that delayed the news?"

Wang De listened to this question, probed his brain for a while, and then said in a low voice:
"Everyone is thinking too, but what do you think His Majesty said?"

"It's not a Yasha to be a secret! You speak faster."

Wang Yecha chuckled: "The officials said while shaking the dice, maybe someone is plotting a rebellion."

rebellion……

The gold content of these two words can only be filled by the lives of people from the three tribes. Since the emperor made such a guess, it must be...prepared?
He only came back from the north two years ago, and his relationship with this majesty is not that deep, but no matter how ignorant Li Xianzhong is, this is also the emperor of the Song Dynasty!

Which emperor would have such a reaction after hearing that someone had rebelled?

"My lord has the power to swallow the universe, and he is a rare king in all ages."

"Don't drag those words, it's annoying to listen to!" Wang De glared at him. He changed from a dignified army commander to a soldier who sent orders, but Wang Yacha didn't feel unhappy at all.

On the contrary, he was still very excited, hoping to meet some blind people on the road so that he could wash his body with human blood.

"Since you don't lack food, then I'll go to Suzhou... Both of you are really useless envoys, and Li Qiong blocked them there."

He is naturally qualified to say this. Li Qiong mentioned Suzhou. Last year, Wang De led his army to the north.

Now facing Zhao Mi and Yang Yizhong, he was devastated, so he could go and see where they were defeated.

As he said that, he didn't even drink his saliva, and got on his horse again. Li Xianzhong hurriedly stopped him, and called the old Wangtou to come over again:
"This guy just came from Lin'an, you can ask him about it."

"Oh?" Wang De jumped off after he was already on the horse, looked at the old man leading the donkey, "Are you from Lin'an?"

Seeing the ugly appearance of this man, the old Wang was already a little timid in his heart, at this moment he just faltered:

"Yes, it is."

Wang De usually doesn't use his brain, but when he does, he has the demeanor of Taiwei Zhang.

The saying that if you have your generals, you will have your soldiers fits perfectly with the two of them.

As it is now, Wang De just thought about it for a while, and grabbed the old man by the collar, so frightened that the old man almost burst into tears:
"Marshal, spare your life, Marshal, spare your life."

"Old man, there is no news from Yue Shaobao's family, but you arrived first. Why, you are stronger than Yue's family army?"

Li Xianzhong couldn't see him treating an old man like this, so he quickly persuaded him to come down, told him what Old Wang said just now, and said:
"Yasha, don't be reckless, and first listen to what others say."

"Well..." Li Xianzhong still has to give face, Wang De stared at the old Wang's head as if he wanted to eat people:
"What's your son-in-law's name, and who is he following? What happened in Lin'an, tell me quickly, if you dare to tell half a lie... you will definitely not survive today!"

The old king was afraid of returning home, but he was determined not to hold back the emperor... He was also a soldier, so of course he knew that the loss of morale was just a blink of an eye.

At this juncture, no matter what you say, you can't let these thieves and soldiers know about the rebellion in Lin'an, otherwise... It's only been a few years since the Miao Liu Mutiny and the Huaixi Army Mutiny!

He gritted his teeth and said, "My son-in-law is my son-in-law, with His Majesty the Emperor!"

"As for Lin'an City... Lin'an City is very good. Everyone eats well and sleeps well. They all want to go back to Kaifeng sooner!"

Seeing that he refused to name his name, but only said that he was working with the emperor... Wang De and Li Xianzhong looked at each other, so he could only be a member of the Imperial City Department.

Seeing that this person didn't look like a criminal, Wang Yecha thought again:
"Then Yingzhou is still surrounded by golden men, and you are determined not to get in by yourself."

"If you have the heart, you can wait here and ask me when I go back."

This is already a great help, but the old Wangtou just shook his head, and he picked up the rope leading the donkey on the ground:

"The two marshals are kind, and the little old man appreciates it. It's just that it has been delayed for a long time to come out of Lin'an. If I can see the little old man's son-in-law one day earlier, I can let him know his situation one day earlier, and I can do it." Prepare a day earlier."

Saying that, Old Wangtou, who originally wanted to have a meal in the city, simply gave up this idea and walked out of the city on his own.

The old man was stubborn.

No matter how you say it, it's human life, but it's hard to persuade ghosts who want to die with good words, and they have military affairs, so they really can't help much now.

Wang De thought for a while, and finally chased after him:
"Old man, don't say I didn't remind you, where did the golden country bastard get his humanity? If you go like this, ten lives will be lost there."

The old Wang was as stubborn as his donkey. He took out a piece of cake from his bundle, broke off half to feed his donkey, and stuffed the other half into his own mouth.

"If you insist on this, you have to look at the location. If you pass through Yingshui, you can bypass the Jinren... But in this climate, even if you go to Yingzhou, you will be frozen to death."

While talking, Wang De threw his sign to him:
"This is my sign. Take it out before entering the city. It will save you a lot of trouble. Otherwise, you can only ask for luck."

Until this time, the old man stopped and kowtowed to Wang Yecha:
"Thank you, Marshal. Marshal, please leave a name. When he sees my son-in-law, he can thank you properly."

"no thanks!"

Wang De rode back. For him, this was the last time he and the old man saw each other.

The snow in the sky finally showed signs of stopping, and the sun, which had not been seen for many days, was finally willing to show its face.

Scattered in this white world, it actually outlines the old Wangtou and his donkey who are on the road into a picture.

Yingshui is next to Yingzhou, and you can go directly to the river after about a hundred steps.

Because they are too close together, the golden people in the east are all surrounded by the other side of Yingshui.

As Wang De said, it is absolutely impossible for the old Wangtou to go to Yingzhou alone, except for this road.

The old man was not a fool either. He took a map and looked at it for a long time before heading north. There were fewer and fewer people to see along the way, and the weather was getting colder and colder.

Fortunately, he is getting closer and closer to Yingzhou.

On the 11th day of the twelfth lunar month in the 29th year of Shaoxing, Lao Wangtou stood at the upper reaches of the Yingshui River. On the side where he was standing was the camp set up by the Jin people, which stretched for several miles; on the other side was the Yingzhou where the emperor lived.

He didn't dare to get too close, for fear of being discovered by the golden man, so he just stood silently a little more than a mile upstream.

He had been standing for two hours, and all the cakes he bought in his bundle were fed to the donkey. Although it was winter, the ice cubes floating in the water kept reminding the old man:
It's cold here.

"That's all, at such an advanced age, I already have enough of my mother's life."

He kept persuading himself, and in the end he became cruel and untied the rope from the donkey:

"Go find someone else to make a living by yourself, you bastard."

I slapped it on the buttocks, but the donkey didn't seem to react. It was still standing there, turning around to look at the old man behind it from time to time.

"Animals are animals, and they don't even understand the truth."

I can't control that much anymore, the old man clearly saw a group of golden men walking towards him, if he didn't go down the river, he really had no chance.

Only after taking off the clothes on his body, the old Wangtou couldn't help shivering... He was thin and thin, if it weren't for the wounds on his shoulders that showed the experience of the old man when he was young, he would really look like a man who was raped. Peeled rabbit.

"Xin Ciying, fuck your mother!"

He cursed, and the whole person jumped into the water.

Until this time, he did not dare to scold the emperor, and Xin Ciying's name became his only outlet for venting.

The overwhelming chill hit, and the old Wangtou felt that his whole body was unable to control his hands and feet, as if they were all numb.

He only felt that it was extremely cold, and he floated in the water for a while with his head stuffed, and when he raised his head again... the old man almost burst into tears. For him, this period of time was extremely long, but it was only a dozen or so miles away from the shore. Only steps away.

But the good news is that he is getting used to it.

It's okay if you don't move, but if you move, it will hurt wherever you move.

He lay on the surface of the water, just waiting for the water to wash him down... The coolness from Tianling Gai made the old Wang bite his purple lips tightly.

"Hey~"

An arrow shot at his side, causing a splash of water. He turned his head to look, and it turned out that the golden man on the shore found him.

"Fuck your mother!"

Many arrows sank into the water, and the old Wang didn't care about the pain anymore. He dived down again, and his whole body disappeared.

A few days ago, someone entered Yingzhou from Xicheng, and it seemed that they were Yue Fei's men.

Later, someone came out of the city from the east... Heshi Lie Zhining went from the south to the east today, and he didn't need to use it.

Here are all people from the prairie, but not Khitan, Wuliangheti, Suledusi, Xushen, Hongjila and Qiyan.

They came from different tribes, none of them were Jin people. Although it was said that they were besieged but not attacked, Zhi Ning was still worried that something might go wrong with them.

So I took a look and cheered on these people by the way.

Just in time, I saw the old Wangtou floating in the river, and went to Yingzhou in front of many people. Although it was unexpected, it was undoubtedly not giving face to these grassland tribes.

Everyone scrambled to show off in front of Daikin's general.

Seeing that person dived into the river again, everyone felt that it was a pity. If they didn't pass, they went. It was just one person. It didn't matter how many people had been let go before.

But only this time...

Zhi Ning ordered: "Keep shooting, don't stop, don't let him enter the city."

This time he was indeed alone, and Zhi Ning did not know the purpose of his trip to Yingzhou.

But at this time, everyone in the world knows that Yingzhou is besieged, what kind of people will come?
Knowing that the weather is cold, what is it that made him go to Yingzhou even at the risk of losing his life?
A lot of people have already been sent out. If this person had left the city before, he would know that his side would be surrounded but not attacked, and he would avoid the enemy and not fight. As long as there are more than a hundred of them, they should be free to come and go.

Song people, not those who went out of Yingzhou, must enter the city at this time.

No matter what it is, Zhi Ning only knows one thing, he cannot be allowed to enter the city.

Although everyone didn't know why he was embarrassing a person who seemed destined to die... It's no wonder that he didn't die when he came out of the river in such a cold day.

But they all obeyed his orders and shot all the arrows into the river.

The sound of splashing into the water had already alarmed the guards on the city gate. Yue Yun rushed over immediately when he heard the news.

I thought it was something to do, but I only saw that the opposite side kept shooting arrows into the water.

"This is……"

The guard next to him answered, "It seems that someone entered the water from the upper reaches just now. They should all be looking for that person."

What Zhining can figure out, Yue Yun can also figure out.

At this time, this person insisted on coming to Yingzhou. No matter who he was or what his purpose was, he must have something very important to do.

Even if not, the person on the other side who wants to kill must be the one who wants him to live.

He instructed: "Look first, let the Heavy Armored Army wait, if that person shows up, go and bring him in immediately!"

Although young, but the mind is delicate, and ordered:

"Ask the doctor to prepare, dry clothes, quilts and warm basins, everything is ready... then go and report to the officials."

Several people were ordered to go, and Yue Yun was alone on the city gate, looking at the Yingshui flowing slowly in front of him.

On the other side, the soldier didn't know where the emperor was, he just went to Yingzhou yamen first, met Zhong Lei and Zhang Taiwei, he told them this, maybe life here is too boring After a while, the opposite side looked like wood, and there was no action.

Now that there is finally some movement, Taiwei Zhang is also very excited, and he looks at Zhong Lei again... The people from the Imperial City Department have been with the officials all the time, so the matter of reporting to the emperor will be left to you.

But Your Majesty... Chong Lei pinched his fingers and calculated, the odd number was grinding tofu at Widow Li’s house on West Street, and the even number was learning weaving at Mrs. Wan’er’s house on East Street.

With some calculations in his mind, he hurriedly led his people to the East Street, and as expected, he saw someone from the Imperial City Division at the door of the house.

They were all wearing casual clothes, and Zhong Feng gestured to them, then stepped forward to knock on the door and said:

"Member, something has happened!"

In the room, Liu Bang was studying the different expressions of mandarin ducks and magpies on the cloth with Mrs. Wan's family. Now it was the critical moment, and Mrs. Wan's eyes were a little confused:

"Miao Liu, your family has come to call you."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Liu Bang learned to weave the cloth for many days, and he was about to succeed, how could he let others spoil his good deeds.

He pushed Wan Niangzi who had already sat up, and was thinking about continuing, when the thunderous voice sounded again:
"Waiyuan! Really, there is something wrong!"

"Youngest Liu, why don't you go and have a look."

Wan Niangzi pushed him away, and it was cold winter, but both of them were hot.

Liu Bang stamped on her face: "Then you wait for me, I'll come back later."

Seeing her nodding, His Majesty the Emperor straightened his clothes and strode outside.

As soon as he opened the door, he looked at Zhongfeng angrily:

"You better have something to do, kid!"

Seeing the mouth marks on the emperor's face, Zhong Lei wanted to remind him, but seeing that he was very unhappy, he first told what happened in the city over there.

"Ok?"

Liu Bang thought for a while, got on Chong Lei's horse, and headed towards the city gate without even saying hello.

When he arrived, he found that not only Yue Yun, but also Zhang Jun, Liu Qi, Han Chang, Guo Yaoshi, and the two boys from the Wang family had all arrived.

"Why are you here?"

"It's all right, come and have a look."

"What about people?"

"It just popped out just now, and now it's dived down again."

In such a cold day, what does this man want to do?
He looked at the surface of the Yingshui River, which was already densely covered with arrows, but fortunately, the river water hadn't turned red yet.

In other words, the man was not injured yet.

After a while, a man's head popped out of the middle of the river. Before Liu Bang could take a closer look, the man was driven back by the golden man's bow and arrow.

Looks familiar?

Almost at the gate of Yingzhou City, the head popped out again, and wiped the water off his face.

Now, Liu Bang saw it clearly.

Old Wangtou!
Why is he here!

"Yue Yun Wang Qi Wang Shun!"

The three of them were just watching the excitement, but suddenly they were called by the emperor's name, and they quickly stood up.

"Leading the troops out of the city... the man in the river is not allowed to make any mistakes."

Seeing that the officials seemed to recognize this person, the three young generals ordered 100 people each, and rushed out.
