Chapter 14: Frosthoof Chasing the Wind (14)

Zhe Keren came out of the hall and let out a soft breath in the courtyard, the thick white mist lingering in the air.

The generals passed by Zhe Keren one by one, and those who knew each other did not forget to say hello and make an appointment to go for a drink together.

In their eyes, what Zhe Keren saw was excitement. I was very excited about Han Gang's encouragement. The icy cold could not suppress the raging flames in their chests. Only through a lively banquet can a little bit of excitement be vented that their credit is close at hand.

But if someone can pay attention to Zhe Keren's expression, they will be surprised to find that the Sixteen Lang of the Zhe family, who can rush into the Liao realm for half an ear, is completely calm.

The day before, he said that he would focus on attacking his heart, but as soon as he found out that there were more Montenegrin party members fleeing south than expected, he immediately became murderous. When Han Gang's attitude changed, the hidden murderous nature was not hidden at all.

"It's rare to see such a murderous strategy. Isn't it, third brother? Zhe Keren suddenly spoke.

"Ah, it's really rare." The sound of squeaky snow sounded, and Zhi Kexing walked behind him, and the military discussion in the tent was inadvertently already a light snowfall. He stopped beside Zhe Keren and looked up at the sky that was even more gloomy than before entering the hall, "But I've seen something similar in ten years, and I've seen it in thirty years." ”

"Who is it?!" Zhe Keren immediately asked.

Zhi Kexing said slowly: "Ten years ago, it was Li Fugui. ”

"Li Fugui?" Zhe Keren couldn't remember that there was such a person who could be compared with Han Gang, or that he was somewhat similar to him.

"I worked in Huanqing ten years ago." "It's the one who killed Li Xin, who is not Han Jingluo's cousin." killed two generals in a row, and more than a dozen military academies were punished and sentenced to death, which greatly damaged people's hearts. Later, the cause of the rebellion of the Guangrui Army actually had his part. The combat strength of the Huanqing Army, therefore, has not eased up since ten years ago, and the defeat of Lingzhou is not so simple. ”

"Where is this similar to Han Longtu?" Zhi Keren wondered.

"Where the murderous one counts."

"Li Fugui's murderous nature is not used in the right place." Zhe Keren snorted from his nose and asked again, "...... Who was it thirty years ago? ”

Zhi Kexing laughed twice, "The one who is not surprised!" ”

"Han ......" Zhi Keren opened his mouth, closed his mouth again, and laughed.

These two are indeed murderous envoys, but they like to kill their own people to establish their authority, or shirk responsibility. For example, Han Qi, such as Li Fugui. But these two will not be able to deal with the western thieves or the northern captives.

Li Fugui won't talk about that waste. Han Qi's huge name, and the results in his hands seem to be a Jiao Yong who is not a good man, and Di Qing is so frightened that his face can barely be counted as his record, which won the heartfelt praise of Zhang Yuan, the Taishi of Western Xia-Han Qi is not surprised.

"Fortunately, Han Longtu is different from them. He is full of murderous intentions for thieves, and he treats us martial artists very well. Zhi Keren said, and walked out on the snow with Zhi Kexing.

Zhi Kexing sighed: "Some people are suitable for intrigue in the court, and some people are suitable for making contributions in the frontier." It's a pity that it's always misplaced. ”

"Isn't it just right for Han Longtu to be a strategic envoy? This time, the court didn't misplace. "Zhe Keren said.

Zhi Kexing shook his head, "Han Gang is more suitable for the court. He himself knows the truth. ”

Zhe Keren groaned for a moment and laughed: "...... Indeed, quickly cut through the mess, Han Longtu didn't want to drag on in Fengzhou for too long this time. ”

"In order to stabilize the Black Mountain River, the Liao people chose the simplest method. Just drive everyone out of the party. Han Gang's approach was the same as theirs, no matter what Xiao Shisan's plans were, he would solve it in the simplest way. ”

"I'm sure you've heard of it too, but from the Montenegrin party, Yelu Yixin intends to place its Erudor in the Black Mountain River. What Xiao Shisan is doing now must be receiving Yelu Yixin's orders. ”

"It's also a good thing, as long as Yelu Yixin's Huluduo is in the Black Mountain River for a day, Fengzhou's defense can't be slackened for a day."

"That's not what I'm talking about. There is a limit to the amount of grain and grass that Shengzhou needs to transport. Hoarding grain and grass in Katsushu is also limited. This little errand will definitely not be enough to settle all the southbound tribes. ”

Zhi Kexing looked back at Zhi Keren.

"Little brother understands." Zhi Keren smiled understandingly, "Building is a hard job, and the Montenegrin Party definitely doesn't have the ability, and they won't be willing to do it honestly." Start harder and harder, so that they can be obedient. I guess that's what Han Yongtu intended. ”

The world's impression of Zhe Keren is impulsive and irritable, but if Zhe Keren is really such an impulsive person, how can he be asked to be responsible for building key fortifications, and how can he let him accompany the next head of the family to the forefront?

Even under the anger of being physically disabled, Zhe Keren only burned down two patrol shops, instead of killing people to vent his anger, even if there was no Han Gang to take care of him, he would not be too guilty. And in this way, when he saw half of his ears, no one would laugh at him, but they would bow his hand because he had the courage to enter the Liao Realm and set fire.

"No matter what Han Gang's original intention is, but all the departments going south can't all be beheaded, at least the people who repair the city and the house must be left."

"The younger brother will assist the eldest brother in this matter." Zhi Keren nodded, "If you can use more manpower from the Black Mountain Ministry, you can use less manpower from Fuzhou and Linzhou." ”

Zhi Kexing sighed, "Most of the credit this time will be taken up by the Hedong Army, and we can't compete for it." It's only up to you and your eldest brother to rely on sixteen. ”

…………………………

"Don't waste this opportunity. Once the Shengzhou incident is over, there may not be a big battle in a few years. ”

After Li Xian came out, he instructed the generals below to seize the opportunity. Not to mention the rarity of opportunities, the war that is about to end has made there are very few opportunities for meritorious service, which is what Han Gang said today, and almost no border minister will say it.

For those who defected to the imperial court, the Great Song Dynasty has always been very generous, and he has never been stingy with his official position, money and food. But as soon as Han Gang made a move this time, he was exchanging the lives of tens of thousands of people for credit. Even if an excuse is found, it is not easy to prevaricate.

In the court, there are not one or two people who want to find fault with him. Giving someone a handle now will inevitably cause trouble. If you want to defend yourself, you have to go to great lengths.

The generals who belonged to the Hedong Army didn't have too many ideas, they just knew that Lu Dao should complete Han Gang's task as quickly as possible and strive for more beheadings, which was related to the future of them, their wives and children.

Unwilling to obey orders, or suspected of being a Liao tribe in the south. They are the target this time. And the members of the Hedong Army will lock their energy on the target and will never be distracted.

…………………………

The snow in Dongshengzhou was getting heavier and heavier, and listening to the rustling sound of snow on the big tent, Xiao Shisan's mood became very calm. Everything has been laid out, just waiting for the harvest after the worst of the time.

There is no need to use a large army, as long as it is done at the right time, the Song people in the south will have nothing to do, but to swallow the bitter fruit of their own making.

"Privy. According to the news of Montenegro, the dragon department has also moved south. A personal soldier approached Xiao Shisan's side and whispered to him the latest military information.

"Then the dragon Aridin, finally can't hold on?" Xiao Shisan raised his eyebrows in surprise, the dragon tribe is the one who has always persevered to the end among the major tribes of Montenegro, but after all, his arms can't twist his thighs. He sneered, "If it weren't for the fact that the dragon Ariding could cause some trouble to the Song people, he would have sent someone to destroy the dragon tribe a long time ago." ”

The pro-soldier lowered his head and did not dare to interject more. Xiao 13 paused for a while and then asked, "Who is the one who came back to report this time?" ”

"It's a close confidant of Captain Xiao Xiaoxian."

"Heavy reward. and reward him with ten horses of silk and twenty taels of silver. ”

Xiao Shisan's hands are very rich, and it is rare to be so generously rewarded. even made the pro-soldiers stunned for a moment, until Xiao Shisan urged sharply, he reacted, and stumbled out of the big tent.

This time, the Montenegrin party was almost uprooted. From the hands of hundreds of tribes, Xiao Shisan's livestock and property were not a few. It's just that all this can't all belong to him, all the armies, tribes, and tribes involved in it are qualified to get a piece of the pie, as for Yelu Yixin, the land between the Black Mountain River is the biggest harvest, and he will not compete with others for the floating wealth obtained from plundering.

Now that the dragon is gone, there is no obstacle between the Black Mountain River, and the rest is for Shang Father's Erudor to migrate here. As a result of the change of land ownership, not only can Yelu Yixin cultivate his own strength, but there will also be enough room for other members who also belong to Shang's father, Huludo.

However, it does not include Xiao Shisan, a high-ranking official of the imperial court, and it is impossible to become a member of Huluduo.

Xiao Shisan himself knew that he didn't have enough strength, and there were very few means that he could use. Fortunately, Han Gang on the other side can use fewer means. Up to the present conflict, the Song army has only crossed the border once, which shows that he is absolutely unwilling to expand the war. Compared with Da Liao, the Song people were more afraid of a war.

After nearly a year of attrition in the summer campaign, raising troops to recover the old land, and taking over the Montenegrin party that fled from Jinan, how long can the grain and grass of the Song people be supported? Once they can't be paid enough food and grass, the party members are not the type to wait for death honestly.

Xiao Shisan's eyes narrowed, the Song people were the most indecisive, and they had a good reputation as a central country, and they had always been very polite to people. Han Gang will definitely give them food and land, and keep a group of hungry wolves at home as domestic dogs. However, once the supply of food and grass is insufficient, this group of hungry wolves will return to a state of fierceness that wants to tear apart their opponents from their status similar to domestic dogs.

At that time, it was a good time to start, and if there was an opportunity, he would never let it go.
