Chapter 1,243 The Imperial Commander Personally Marched, and Fu Bi Led the Army
In early spring, the land in the North gradually becomes more green.
The animals that have been dormant all winter are beginning to come out.
They are much thinner than they were in late autumn.
This is when they need supplements.
A group of wild wolves surrounded several yellow sheep. The yellow sheep fled in a hurry, but the wild wolves had a clear division of labor. After a round of pursuit, they saw delicious food right in front of them.
An eagle's call came, and the wolves raised their heads.
The hawks flew quickly over their heads, as if something was chasing them from behind.
The wolves were puzzled.
Until a black line appeared in the distance.
The black line is long and gradually thickening.
The sound of horse hooves shook the ground, and a group of cavalry rushed out from the brigade.
The wild wolves looked at the prey in front of them, then at the cavalry with no end in sight, and finally gave up hunting in pain and fled in a hurry.
On the steppe, when the cavalry are massed, they are more dangerous than the wild wolves.
The cavalry chased the wolves and eventually killed three wild wolves.
"Take off the wolf's skin."
"Who eats wolf meat?"
"Someone wants it!"
After a while of noise, the three wild wolves disappeared without a trace.
A group of armored cavalry came over. They were wary and well-armed. Even their horses were better than others.
Just behind them, there were several carriages, and in front of them was Yelu Hongji who was surrounded.
He was surrounded by civil servants and military officers, and on the outside were guards.
He wore a helmet and looked a little more powerful, but his brows were furrowed.
"Where's the striker?"
A general volunteered to investigate. Yelu Hongji nodded and ordered: "The scouts should set up more scouts."
"yes."
Yelu Hongji's riding and shooting is still good, but his command ability has yet to be tested.
He looked back at the carriage and said, "Take a rest."
"yes."
It is not easy for the army to rest. Just having to poop and pee can give the generals a headache.
The curtain of the carriage opened, revealing a fair and tender face.
"Is this the place where Song people belong?"
Empress Dowager Xiao was involved in politics at that time, so she was able to command the army in battle.
But Xiao Guanyin didn't have the ability or the opportunity, but Yelu Hongji still brought her out.
A cavalryman on the side said: "Mother, this is still the territory of Daliao."
Yelu Hongji in front looked back at her with cold eyes.
Xiao Guanyin put down the car curtain and said quietly: "As a father, he is afraid of his son... This is really helpless."
With the child's mother by his side, Yelu Jun, who is so young, naturally has no planner.
Yes.
In Yelu Hongji's view, the combination of the queen and his son could threaten his throne.
This is the emperor.
The same was true for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
However, Yelu Hongji could not be compared with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. If Han Wu was reborn, he would probably be beaten to the point of calling him father.
After a while, a hurried sound came from the front.
"His Majesty……"
The voice was very sad. Xiao Guanyin sighed and picked up a book, but it was the Book of Stones that had been read countless times.
"Your Majesty, our army was ambushed by the Song army and lost most of it."
Xiao Guanyin shook his head and couldn't help but smile when he looked at Baoyu and Daiyu's little life in Jia's house.
Daiyu was in a difficult situation in the Jia family. Xue Baochai was used to check and balance her, and she was also helpless...
This is really similar to me!
Xiao Guanyin thought of herself and couldn't help but put herself into Lin Daiyu's body.
"Why?"
Yelu Hongji's voice was filled with annoyance.
"Then Shen An sent people to raid the camp. There were only a thousand people. Our army pursued us. Who knew that Shen An led his army in an ambush. Caught off guard, our army was defeated..."
It was quiet outside, except for the sound of breathing.
Xiao Guanyin looked at the sensitive Daiyu in the book and couldn't help but be fascinated.
She is so smart, just like me...
She was in dire straits, and so was I.
"Incompetent! Waste!"
Yelu Hongji outside was furious, and the defeated forward knelt on the ground trembling.
"killed!"
Morale dropped, and he had to deal with it.
And killing the defeated general is a warning.
The subtle smell of blood spread into the carriage, Xiao Guanyin frowned slightly, and then continued reading.
"...It's a small matter to offend me today. If Miss Bao comes tomorrow, Miss Bei comes and offends me, wouldn't it be a big deal..."
"Army attack!"
Yelu Hongji's order was issued, and the army moved with a roar.
The carriage vibrated, Xiao Guanyin put down the book and stared blankly into the void.
"Is Shen Anke here?"
…
Of course Shen An is there.
He is very busy.
The scouts for the reinforcements have arrived, and the follow-up army is endless.
Cavalry, infantry...
The swordsmen and axemen are the most powerful.
When Shen An saw Wang Que, he smiled and held his hands.
Wang turned around and said a few words, then walked over.
With a height of two meters, people can only look up.
"I've met Hu Yunshi, I've met County Duke Shen."
Hu Xicheng smiled and said: "He is indeed tough."
Shen An asked: "Who is leading the army?"
He led the army as the vanguard, and the main force had just arrived at this moment.
But the king said: "It's Mr. Fu..."
"Fu Bi?" Shen An was a little surprised, "Didn't the princes fight?"
Han Qi and Fu Bi were sworn enemies. Would he watch helplessly as Fu Bi got the chance to lead the army?
The king frowned and said, "It seems that the officials wanted to conquer the land personally, which frightened the princes."
I go!
Shen An was also frightened.
Fu Bi came later, smiling and looking very calm.
After seeing the ceremony, Fu Bi said: "I learned about your success in defeating the Liao army's vanguard on the road. I immediately ordered it to be circulated throughout the army. The morale of the army was greatly boosted!"
Fu Bi is naturally not lacking in such means.
After exchanging a few words, Shen An and Fu Bi walked in front.
"Rich Prime Minister, the officials want to conquer the country personally, what's going on?"
Zhao Shu was doing fine in Bianliang, so why did he think of conquering it himself?
Moreover, the emperor's personal conquest will shock the world. It's okay if he wins, but once he loses... think about Emperor Sui Yang.
Fu Bi looked around and whispered: "The day after you led the army away, the officials said it was time for the reinforcements to set off, and a dispute immediately broke out in the court. Han Qi..."
He sneered and said: "Han Qi still wanted to lead the army on the expedition, but Zeng Gongliang immediately refuted it. The two argued so hard that they even got angry..."
Damn it!
Lao Han finally killed Zeng Gongliang!
Shen An couldn't help but shudder at the thought of obese old Han beating Zeng Gongliang violently.
Fu Bi also sighed with sadness, "Zeng Gongliang was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. The officials were furious, and Bao Zheng impeached..."
What a mess!
Shen An could imagine that scene.
Zhao Shu will feel comfortable.
The conflict between Zai and Fu was what he wanted to see, but it was of a different nature when he took action.
"The officials were furious, and then they said they would go on a personal expedition to meet Yelu Hongji..."
Boss, it would be better for you to squat in the palace!
Shen An imagined the scene of Zhao Shu and Yelu Hongji meeting in front of the battle, and felt that it was not appropriate.
Fu Bi obviously saw it this way, "Han Qi and Zeng Gongliang, who had fought earlier, objected in unison, just like brothers."
The fight was a fight, and Shen An even suspected that the fight was a show between Lao Han and Zeng Gongliang.
The emperors, generals and ministers all performed on the stage, and the people of the world were the audience.
"Later..." Fu Bi couldn't help but feel happy.
"When the officials got angry, they asked me to lead the army on an expedition. Hahahaha!"
Fu Bi was very resentful in the Privy Council. He felt that he should be able to replace Han Qi in commanding the officials.
But Zhao Shu didn’t agree!
So he could only continue to stay in the Privy Council.
There were countless opportunities during this period, but the prime ministers and assistants led by Han Qi worked together to keep him out.
This is the battle between the two governments.
But this time there was a commotion inside the political hall, which benefited Fu Bi.
The old rich man entered the city in high spirits, and then humbly asked Shen An about the next move of the Liao army.
"Yelu Hongji will definitely come back."
Shen An was very sure about this, "The Song Dynasty abolished the annual currency, and Yelu Hongji could not step down. He had to show his attitude..."
"The army is approaching?" Fu Bi looked up at the sky. "Back then, before the Chanyuan Alliance...the generals were so full of morale that they all said they were willing to fight to the death...but they were suppressed. Later I learned that the Liao army was at the end of its tether. If we had fought with all our strength, the situation in Song and Liao would have been reversed..."
Fu Bi mentioned this matter when he was on a mission to the Liao Kingdom. The Liao Kingdom remained silent, which shows that it was indeed true.
This is life!
Fate was not on Song Dynasty's side, so Song Dynasty threw away this perfect opportunity.
"Now that Yelu Hongji is here again... Shen An, do you know why I didn't want to talk about war back then?"
Shen An nodded.
Fu Bi smiled and said: "At that time, the Song Dynasty was full of problems. It sent out troops... Once defeated, it would be a disaster! Therefore, when the late emperor was still alive, I did not recommend using troops against Liao."
"But it's different now."
He looked at Shen An and said with admiration: "The Song Dynasty defeated the Liao army several times. The country was stable and the monarch and ministers were united. It was possible to fight like this."
The right time, the right place and the right people were the conditions before the war.
Shen An was silent, he thought of Fu Bi's shouts later.
"I hope that your Majesty will remain silent for twenty years."
What was the Song Dynasty like at that time?
It actually made Fu Bi, a tough guy back then, lower his head.
"Your victory in this battle is a good sign. I have sent out my memorial to ask for your credit."
Fu Bi smiled and said: "The march was silent all the way, and I was murmuring in my heart, worried about poor morale. When the news of your victory came, the army was filled with cheers, and the sound of victory was deafening!"
Immediately Fu Bi settled down. UU Reading www.uuUKans.net
When the local celebrities heard that he was coming, they joined hands to invite him the next day.
"No time."
Fu Bi and Shen An were studying the battle situation, and Hu Xicheng was very depressed with no room to interrupt.
"What if the Liao army attacks Suicheng?"
Fu Bi asked, pointing to a point on the map.
"Then fight." Shen An said cruelly: "The border between Song and Liao is wide. The Song Dynasty cannot defend everywhere, but it can provide timely reinforcements."
"You!" Fu Bi looked at him and nodded slightly, "A general must not be merciful. You... are very good."
"Report..."
Someone rushed in from outside.
"Prime Minister Fu, Duke Shen, the Emperor Liao is here!"
Fu Bi stiffened, then smiled and said, "How many people?"
“It’s overwhelming and there’s no end in sight.”
"Did Qingguo go south?" Fu Bi's face turned red and he looked at Shen An.
Shen An is looking at the map.
"If Yelu Hongji attacks from Suicheng, I am sure that the front-line army can press in from the left, and the army assembled in Xiongzhou can press in from the right, and attack from both sides...Will Yelu Hongji go?"
Shen An looked up, "He won't."
Fu Bi pondered: "He wants a decisive battle?"
"No, he is looking for an opportunity." Shen An said firmly: "He will go straight here, so we have to set off immediately."
Fu Bi glanced at the map, took a deep breath, the wrinkles on his face squeezed together, and then shouted: "The whole army will attack, and the Liao army must be intercepted in the Tang County area!"
Zhending Mansion was immediately in a state of excitement, and the soldiers gathered their weapons and began to assemble.
The peasants were gathering in their carts.
The civil servants were calculating the supplies of food and grass, and the generals gathered temporarily to analyze various occupations.
until the order is given.
"The cavalry attacks and leads the army!"
"yes!"
In an instant, thousands of horses galloped, with momentum like a rainbow!
