Chapter 1,696 Good Brothers

More than 5,000 Song troops were divided into three torrents and rushed at them from three angles: left, middle and right.

Shen An was in the middle, leading the Mangshan Army to kill all the way. After a while, his body was covered in blood, and he looked like a murderous god.

Zheng Qiuyu originally wanted to lead some people to get some heads, but when the army was fighting, there was no room for them, and they were pushed to the outside from the beginning.

He looked at Shen An fighting bravely and couldn't help but praise: "I always say that I am full of courage, but after seeing Shen Long's picture, I realized that there are more powerful people in this world. The Song Dynasty has been a country for a hundred years, and civil servants have killed enemies. Shen Long's picture Be number one!”

An official said: "Envoy Shen Longtu seems to be more powerful than the generals."

Zheng Qiuyu thought about it and said, "That's right. Not to mention the Western thieves, the Song and Liao people have had a feud for hundreds of years. The one who can suppress them is Shen Longtu. This man can do anything with cultural relics, which makes me ashamed."

Wen, Shen An is a powerful general of the New Deal; Wu, Shen An is a famous general of the Song Dynasty. This is a rhythm of complete crushing and not giving others a way to survive.

The Liao army was outnumbered and outnumbered. They were very brave at first, but soon after they shouted, they turned around and ran away.

"What are they shouting?"

The Song army was chasing, Shen An led the Mangshan army to stop, and Zheng Qiuyu came to greet them.

Someone who understands Liao dialect said: "Envoy Yun, the Liao people are shouting that Shen An is here."

"I was scared away." Zheng Qiuyu was happy in his heart and said: "We have such a famous general in the Song Dynasty. I am happy and ask people to go back to Xiongzhou and ask them to prepare wine and kill a few more fat sheep. I invite you Shen Longtu drinks."

The two met halfway and after saluting, Zheng Qiuyu praised: "Shen Longtu frightened the enemy as soon as he came, which is admirable."

After a few words of greeting, Shen An asked: "I came to the north on an official order to inspect, Ambassador Zheng Yun, how is the situation here recently?"

The two rode horses slowly. Zheng Qiuyu observed Shen An and said, "Recently, the Liao people have been harassing more and more, and the number of people is getting larger and larger. We are afraid that they will suddenly go south and catch us by surprise."

Shen An nodded, "It's always good to be prepared, but don't overestimate Yelu Hongji."

"How do you say this?" Seeing Shen An's calmness, Zheng Qiuyu wanted to ask for advice.

"This batch of Liao troops is not elite enough." Shen An said calmly: "I judge that many of them are new soldiers. In other words, Yelu Hongji might be training his troops in this way. As for going south, the Song Dynasty is not afraid .From Xiongzhou to Zhending Mansion and then to Daming Mansion, the Song Dynasty’s defense depth was sufficient.

Now I am afraid that he will not come. Once he comes, he will be trapped in this defense. Then the army will fight decisively. The battle will turn the Liao people into northerners. "

The Song Dynasty had been operating defense operations in the north for many years, and it was not without success. Many years later, the Jin people moved southward with overwhelming force. It was not because the defense system was not strong enough, but because the Forbidden Army had been completely eroded.

"What about that side of Hedong Road?" Zheng Qiuyu asked: "Now that the Western bandits have been destroyed on that side of Hedong Road, how should we deal with the Liao people's invasion from there?"

Shen An glanced at him and felt that this man's thinking was a little jumpy, but it was a good question, "The side of Hedong Road has built many forts over the years to defend against the Western bandits, and there is also an army that has been fighting against the Western bandits for many years. If the army goes..."

He smiled slightly, "Then why can't we go?"

Zheng Qiuyu was a little confused, and Shen An nodded, "The enemy can come, and I can go too! They are attacking Hedong Road, so why can't we launch an attack from Hebei Road and advance the Northern Expedition?"

"What a good idea!" Zheng Qiuyu only felt his eyes brighten. "Let them get stuck on Hedong Road and be unable to extricate themselves. If our army launches an attack in the north, the Liao army in front of them will definitely ask for help. The Liao army on Hedong Road will be in a dilemma. It's time to go It’s hard to decide whether to reinforce the Youyan area or continue to contend with the Song Dynasty on Hedong Road.”

Shen An nodded, "That's right."

This Zheng Qiuyu seems to be quite capable. It is said that he is very courageous, and Shen An has seen it today.

All the way to Xiongzhou City, Zheng Qiuyu found that there were people on the streets and even on the rooftops as soon as he entered the city.

"Shen Long Tu!"

After a shout, everyone followed suit.

"Xiongzhou sinks!"

Many years ago, not long after Shen An arrived in Bianliang, he established himself as Xiongzhou Shen.

This is to determine the origin of his branch in Xiongzhou. Even if he was later named Fanyang County Duke, the people of Xiongzhou still regarded him as one of their own.

When they heard that he was coming, the people of Xiongzhou were overjoyed and went out to welcome him.

Origin was very important in the Han and Tang Dynasties. The so-called origin actually means asking who your ancestors are.

If your ancestors are awesome, then everyone will look up to you, and you will have more opportunities to get promoted and make money than others.

After this dynasty, this trend gradually declined, but this statement still exists.

Shen An smiled and cupped his hands, his bearing was clear.

Zheng Qiuyu stepped back and said to his side: "I arrived in Xiongzhou yesterday, and the people in the city did whatever they were supposed to do. But when Shen An arrived today, the people in Xiongzhou came out in full force, which shows the people's hearts."

The officials under his command said: "Envoy, Shen Bian was training troops in Xiongzhou and was focused on the Northern Expedition. Later, he disappeared. Shen An then killed the enemy in Xiongzhou. This is because both father and son fought for Xiongzhou, so he was highly regarded by the people. One glance.”

"Just a glance?" Zheng Qiuyu pointed in front.

Just ahead, two old men came out, with a big man holding a plate beside them.

There is a big bowl on the plate, and the bowl is full of wine.

Are you preparing to bring me down?

Shen An smiled bitterly in his heart, dismounted and walked over.

The two old men cupped their hands, and Shen An returned the favor.

"Why is Shen Longtu here?"

Shen An replied: "Inspect the north and kill a few Liao people by the way."

The two old men smiled, and then brought the big bowl to them, "Please drink from this cup."

Calling him by his official name first and then Lang Jun means that Shen An is regarded as a child of Xiongzhou.

It's just that this bowl is too big.

Shen An gritted his teeth and finished the bowl of wine, and the surroundings suddenly burst into cheers.

Shen An handed over his hand and had a good sleep after arriving at Zhou Yamen.

When she woke up, Shen An was not in a hurry to get up, so she lay in bed in a daze.

He must have lived in this prefecture for several years, and he may have taken Guoguo to see every plant and tree.

He left this place many years ago and came back now. He felt that he had let go of many things and was very relaxed.

Get up, wash up, and walk in the yard.

There were flowers and trees in the yard. Shen An looked at them one by one, and then someone came to invite them.

"Envoy Yun has prepared a banquet, please go to Shen Longtu."

Shen An nodded, then yawned and stretched.

He went down to find Cao Yi and went to the front together. Zheng Qiuyu and a group of officials were already there.

Shen An apologized, sat down and introduced each other, and then the banquet began.

During the banquet, everyone found that Shen An was very kind, so someone asked: "May I ask Shen Longtu, what does the DPRK think of the Northern Expedition?"

These words are somewhat suspected of spying on military intelligence.

"The Northern Expedition is inevitable." Shen An nodded slightly to Zheng Qiuyu, indicating that he did not need to be angry. "With the Song Dynasty's national power reaching its current level, the next step is to regain the north and improve the situation in the north of the Song Dynasty. This is inevitable. Yeluhong Ji knew this, so he organized his army to prepare for war, which can be described as a desperate act of warfare."

Hearing this, everyone was in high spirits.

"The Northern Expedition... has been waiting for a hundred years, and we have finally waited for this day."

"If I can see the day when Youyan is recovered, I will die in peace."

Zheng Qiuyu smiled and said: "At that time, it will be good for me to just take care of the luggage."

So everyone in the room was happy.

Later, Zheng Qiuyu sent people to prepare his luggage. According to the arrangement, he and Shen An would patrol the north together.

Shen An drank until the glass was dry, and then gave Cao Yi a wink.

Cao Yan raised his glass with understanding, "Zheng Yunshi, Cao Mou gives you a toast."

"Thank you, uncle."

"Cao will give you another drink."

Shen An and Cao Yi took turns to fight, and finally Zheng Qiuyu returned drunk.

After returning to the back, Shen An changed his drunken appearance and said: "Tell Brother Chun to prepare, Uncle Guo..."

"Wait a moment."

There's something about Cao Yi's voice...

Shen An turned around and saw this guy peeing in the corner.

"Cool!"

Cao Yi came over after shaking and said, "What did you want to do when you winked at Zheng Qiuyu earlier?"

Shen An smiled and said, "I am going to go out."

"Where are you going? Do you have an old friend?" Cao Yi yawned. He was exhausted from the journey and now he just wanted to find a place to have a good sleep.

"Yes!" Shen An smiled and said, "I have an old friend in the north."

"Who?" Cao Yan's eyes lit up, "Who is it?"

"This matter will be kept secret for the time being. Uncle Guo, you take the cavalry here to patrol, and I will go look for her." When Shen An saw Huang Chun, he ordered: "Let the brothers get ready, we will go out immediately."

Huang Chun said: "Lang Jun, I'm afraid the city gate won't be opened."

"It doesn't matter. Zheng Qiuyu drank too much earlier and had someone go to the city gate to say hello and let us go hunting later."

"Hunting?" Huang Chun couldn't help but laugh.

"Anbei, where are you going?" Cao Yi woke up and felt something was wrong.

"Go find an old friend." Shen An saw the two guys from the Imperial City Division and couldn't help but admire them secretly.

It turned out to be a secret spy, and he immediately noticed something was wrong.

Cao Yi also noticed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Where do you want to go? Why do you want to leave someone behind? Anbei, brother, I am so caring to you, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net I almost gave you my wife. , but you are so unloyal, it is really disgusting! It is extremely contemptible!"

Shen An smiled and said, "I am planning to go to the north. Do you dare to go?"

"North?" Cao Yi was startled, "This is the northernmost part of the Song Dynasty. You...you actually want to go to Liao territory?"

Lao Cao panicked, then patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, brother is not afraid of this."

He was actually a little scared, but he refused to retreat.

Lao Cao is indeed a brother!

Shen An patted him on the shoulder, "In this case, we brothers will go to Youzhou to visit."

Cao Yi was dumbfounded, "Where?"

"Youzhou!"

Li Baojiu came back, bringing Shen An's weapons and the clothes of the Liao army.

"ready to go."

Shen An put the clothes of the Liao army in his baggage. When he turned around and saw Cao Yan in a daze, he said, "Uncle Guo, let's go."

"oh!"

Cao Yan's cheeks trembled, and then he said righteously: "If it's a critical moment, Anbei, you can use me to keep you safe. Yelu Hongji will definitely like to capture me..."

"I know." Shen An felt that Lao Cao had a tendency to nag recently.

"Don't believe it, Yelu Hongji knew that the Song Dynasty was going to expedition to the north, so there must be a lot of troops stationed in Youzhou. We may have a narrow escape from death here, and someone can be a hostage in exchange for your escape..."

Shen An suddenly stopped and looked at Cao Yi.

"What do you think someone is doing?" Cao Yi scratched his head and said, "It's so embarrassing."

Shen An came over and hugged him hard, "Good brother!"

Cao Yan stiffened, then patted Shen An on the shoulder and back.
