Liangzhou is lost! This is probably the most shocking news in Yuanfeng's five years.

When Emperor Shenzong received an urgent report from the Imperial City Division, his hands trembled and he almost didn't shoot Pei Ying to death. He was studying the structure of the steel crossbow, and no matter how much he pondered, he couldn't figure out why the two pieces of iron made by the colt were better than the finest yak horns.

"The message is accurate!" After reading the secret report several times, the emperor still couldn't believe that what it said was true.

"According to the old minister, I am afraid that it will be more true than the previous two times, and the horse did not delay any longer this time, and sent the horse to Lanzhou to inform Li Xian as soon as possible. In terms of time and distance, it is estimated that the official recital of the Privy Council should also come in these two days. ”

Pei Ying has a great opinion of Wang Xu, and since he went to Huangzhou, the workload of the Imperial City Division has directly doubled. Moreover, this person is extremely restless in Huangzhou, doing things all day long, and his whimsical ideas are endless, but there are too many things to report, and he is about to put down the anxious feet of the Imperial City Division.

"Xuanwang Anshi, Sima Guang, and Zhang Dian quickly entered the palace...... Slow, there are also Wang Shao's father and son! "Emperor Shenzong wants to believe it 100%, but this matter is too big, just listening to the opinions of the old eunuch is not enough to convince the public, and you have to listen to the opinions of several important ministers.

Compared with Emperor Shenzong, the Empress Dowager Liang of Western Xia was more resolute, and as soon as she took Liang Yiqi's wife into the Eastern Capital, she knew that Liangzhou was really finished before anyone saw it.

Liang Yiwei's wife is Du Luowei's niece, and she would not have been taken away if she had not encountered special circumstances. Now it is no longer a matter of discussing whether the information brought by the false life should be believed, but we have to quickly ponder what to do if Liangzhou City really loses the next step.

"First of all, I will be a thief after I see my grandson!" Liang Yi was about to vomit blood, and in just half a year, the illegitimate son hung up first, and now his own son is gone, if he kills his grandson again, what is he going to do if he is alive. Even if the Western Xia, Liao, and Song are all given to him, it makes sense that someone has to inherit them.

"It's Wang Shu again! I waited for the calculations but missed him! Du Luowei, why does Huangzhou have such strong soldiers, and I don't know it! "Empress Dowager Liang and her younger brother empathize, this is the last bloodline of her Liang family, and it is definitely unscientific to say that she completely ignores it.

But after all, she wants to take charge of the overall situation, and her personal feelings must be put second, no matter whether she agrees to the other party's negotiation request or not, she must first understand the strength of the other party.

Who to ask? Then there is only Du Luowei, who is in charge of the Quartet Investigation and Visits Division, and he is an intelligence agency according to the name. Liangzhou City was attacked by the Song army, and there must be a reason why the intelligence work was not in place.

"That's right, Du Luowei, you tell me clearly why there are so many Song troops in Huangzhou, but the Queen Mother and I don't know about it!" Liang Yizhu heard his sister's question and immediately followed suit, that's right, it's unreasonable to think about it.

It is understandable to say that there are thousands of people who have made a mistake, but there are tens of thousands of defenders in Liangzhou City, how can a few thousand Song troops attack it. If he didn't have a little sanity, he would have hacked this fat man to death immediately. This guy must be deliberate, deliberately let the Song army cut off the Liang family, so that their party nobles can control the future political situation in Western Xia.

"This, this, this...... The queen mother, the ministers are loyal, how could they deliberately not report it. The Investigation Division did report to Wang Xu's Huangzhou army, and the forbidden army was only 3,000, and the maximum number of soldiers was doubled. If the minister of state does not believe it, he can ask the chief officer of the inspection department to go to the palace to question him face to face! ”

As soon as Du Luowei heard this, he immediately became anxious, this big basin must not be worn on his head, if the Empress Dowager Liang holds a grudge, the Du Luo family will be hanging. This woman has nothing else, but she is ruthless.

"Just ask, Queen Mother, the minister wants to check and inspect the chief officer in person, and ask the Queen Mother for permission!" Liang Yibury didn't believe a word of Du Luowei's explanation, he recognized that this fat man had bad intentions.

"Prime Minister, don't be impatient, and listen to what Bao Zhong has to say." Empress Dowager Liang will definitely not call the chief officer of the Visiting Division to the palace to confront the country now, there is no need to do so with such a difference in rank, and it is too disagreeable, so she can't let her subordinates see jokes.

In addition to Duluowei, Western Xia also had other intelligence systems like the Great Song Dynasty, such as the military supervision system of various military divisions. This system is in the hands of the Chaoshun military division of the unified army, that is, Rindo Baozhong.

"Empress Dowager, Minister of State, Lord Duluo, according to the messenger from Liangzhou City, the army attacking Liangzhou City is not like the Song army, and the number is only about 3,000. Later, the minister asked the tax collectors who had escaped from Liangzhou City, and the number was about the same......"

Renda Baozhong is relatively calm, and there is basically no speculation about the content of what he says, but he talks about things on a case-by-case basis, and he says as much information as he has, without adding oil and vinegar.

"Three thousand! You mean that my son commanded tens of thousands of elite soldiers, but the city was broken by 3,000 Song troops! ”

Unexpectedly, telling the truth would not escape Liang Yi's anger, and the problem of the number of enemy troops stung his already fragile nerves. Isn't this a trick to scold the Liang family for being a waste, it's more hateful than that fat man!

"Don't be in a hurry, and listen to Bao Zhong's words." Originally, Empress Dowager Liang listened very seriously, but her brother's roar frightened her, frowning and a little unhappy, but she still persuaded her with good words. Losing a child in old age is one of the greatest pains in life. Besides, his younger brother not only lost his son in old age, but also lost his grandson.

"In addition to the tax supervisors, Master Wuzhen of Baoguo Temple in Liangzhou City was also escorted to the capital by his apprentices. He and his ministers were on the city tower at that time to watch the battle with Liang Tingshi and the deputy town guard. Speaking of this strange army, the master only said that it was sent by the devil, and that 3,000 horsemen were killed and wounded in a breath, and that the south gate was burned with hellfire, causing the walls to collapse before entering the city. ”

He didn't care about the gaffe of the prime minister, and tried to keep a relatively calm tone, continuing to tell the battle of Liangzhou that he knew. And it makes sense, every piece of information has an accurate source.

"This old bald donkey, my son fought to the death against the enemy in Liangzhou and did not retreat, but he escaped early, my son...... Poof! Even if Renduo Baozhong said it peacefully, it was inevitable that Liang Yi would bury it and ponder the scene at that time.

This time the old monk became his target again, and it is estimated that in his eyes, as long as he escapes from Liangzhou City alive, it is not a good thing, and it is not unjust to be arrested and beheaded immediately.

may be due to excessive excitement, maybe cardiovascular disease or high blood pressure or other diseases, Liang Yibury suddenly shouted and collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

"Minister of State, Minister of State...... Pass the imperial doctor, help the minister to go down to rest and recuperate...... "There was a mess in the palace, and the fat Du Luowei moved the fastest, rolled over in a few steps to help Liang Yi up, and kept rubbing it on his chest. Empress Dowager Liang was even more panicked and ordered the guards loudly.

In the current situation of such internal and external troubles, my younger brother cannot afford to lose, no matter how much she can toss a woman, she cannot control the whole country, and there must be a country to cooperate.

“…… Can you be sure that this army is the one in Huangzhou? After burying Liang Yi down, Empress Dowager Liang rubbed her temples with her hands, and slowed down for half an hour before speaking, her voice was full of exhaustion.

"The minister hasn't finished his report yet...... It was not all the Huangzhou army that broke the city, and the Qingtang Dong Yu was killed halfway, with about 10,000 people, presumably this thief used a part of the partial army as bait, and the main force bypassed the Liangzhou army defense line and went straight to Liangzhou. It was also the Qingtang soldiers who burned and looted in the city, and the Huangzhou army did not continue to attack the inner city after capturing the east gate, but rescued the family members of Lord Shi Liang and the town guard. "Renduo Baozhong is indeed a military general, he doesn't look at his eyes or pick the time when he speaks, and he has already said that the prime minister is lying down, and he still can't keep his mouth shut.

"So the palace has to thank this colt for that......" Empress Dowager Liang's words also began to carry dissatisfaction, the fat Du Luowei was like an invisible person, and the atmosphere was not out.

"The Queen Mother is angry, the minister doesn't mean that. It's just that according to Liang's account, they saw another scene in the Huangzhou army...... The Song Dynasty horse killed Dong Yu and Qing Yi on the spot, and the ghost chapter ...... "Renduo Baozhong also felt that it was not appropriate to say more at this time, but this matter was not explained and had a great impact on the battle situation, so he gritted his back molars and said it.

"What! The Huangzhou Army and the Qingtang Army are fighting among themselves? "Empress Dowager Liang not only has a good appearance, but it seems that her cardiovascular function is stronger than that of her younger brother, and it is estimated that she does not have high blood pressure, otherwise she will faint if she is buried by Liang Yi this time.
