Chapter 854 Where is the wind and rain(1/2)
Chapter 854 Where is the storm again?
In the spring of the fourth year of Jiatai, in the Dagger Valley.
Since the victory in the Battle of the Wei River that year, the army and people of Sichuan and Guizhou have spent two years in peace. Time flies.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, the mood of the rebels in various parts of the country was rising to fight against the Jin Dynasty. In the DPRK and China, the idea of the Northern Expedition was also increased due to the Han Dynasty, and many main war factions were deactivated for a long time. Not only the domestic military and political affairs were inspiring, but the achievements in the Jin Kingdom were reported back to the valley, which made people unable to help but feel proud.
The lord Lin Qian exclaimed. The fact that the mistress who had been missing for a long time returned to the alliance was even more joyful and icing on the cake.
"My lord, the battle is going strong, and we can take the Fengxiang Road just around the corner." Tianjiao told the four rebel leaders Shi Zhongyong, Feng Mingjian, Baili Sheng, and Song Heng, as well as five generals including Cao Xuan, Li Haoyi, and Li Gui, about the situation on the Western Front battlefield.
Everything was great. However, when his eyes fell on the right side of the map, the provinces of Shandong and Hebei, Tianjiao's tone naturally became serious, "It's a pity that Wanyan Yonglian was so cunning that he encircled and suppressed Shandong in only a few months... It was too fast and I didn't expect it."
"Isn't the situation very unfavorable to us?" Cao Xuan frowned.
"Don't worry, everyone, although the Red Coat Village has been torn apart, Yang An, Liu Erzu, and Wu Yue leaders still insist that as long as we rescue the situation in time, we can still turn things around." Tianjiao smiled, "As my lord said, there is nothing in this world that cannot be defeated.
battle."
"Yes. I think back then, Guanlong was occupied by cross-country and the Jin army. Now it is not covered by the soldiers of the alliance king!" Li Haoyi was full of admiration, and Li Guize immediately asked for a tassel: "Genius, if I don't give up, Li Gui is willing to go
Shandong comes to the rescue!" Seeing that all the officers and generals were eager to try, how could the rebel Fengming Jian Baili Sheng be left behind?
"The lord's letter has already stated the candidates for the rescue. I appreciate your kindness, lord." Seeing this scene, Tianjiao was happy for Lin Qian in his heart. Several generals asked back, "Not me?" After that, they all looked downcast.
Disappointed.
"Tianjiao himself is the one who is going to Shandong to lead the battle. Since Tianjiao's lord is not in the valley, wouldn't it be entirely up to the generals to maintain military affairs?" Xun Wei and Qin Feng, two counselors, persuaded the generals, and then the generals knew where they were.
The task on their shoulders was also very heavy. They were all discouraged and they clasped their fists and accepted the order: "The last general will guard Shuchuan. He will not teach any Jin people to violate the territory and act wildly!"
"I'm sorry they don't dare either." Xu Yuan knew in his heart that Wanyan Yonglian chose Red Coat Village but not Dandao Valley this time because he was trying to pick a weak persimmon.
"But I don't know which general the lord will send to the battle besides Tianjiao?" Baili Sheng asked.
"Song Heng." After Tianjiao said this, he looked at Song Heng, first informed him of the relevant tasks, and then gave instructions to the other generals.
Yes, it was Song Heng. Although Lin Qian wrote to Xu Yuan that Yang Songxian should go to the war, Xu Yuan changed the person at his discretion. There was no other way, Yang Songxian requested to postpone going to the war due to personal reasons, and Xu Yuan read it all
The three armies felt that Song Heng was the closest to him in terms of combat power and the most effective in cooperating with him, so they could only bring Song Heng with them. Lin Qian also said in the letter, "If anything happens, Tianjiao will make the decision," and he entrusted Xu Yuan with full decision-making power.
After all, Lin Qian, who lives in Longshan, may not be able to understand whether Yang Songxian's current situation is suitable for rescuing the situation - Songxian has actually been idle for many years.
The next morning, Cheung Ping Road.
The wind blows from far away, and it finally feels like spring.
Lu Zheng's son, Lu Cheng, is about the same age as Liu Wenyin and has now grown up. As a descendant of the seven chiefs of the Short Knife Valley, Lu Cheng's record is far inferior to that of Wen Yin. Wen Yin has been fighting since he was a child.
Following Liu Wujin around, he worshiped the military camp and liked swords and guns. Lu Cheng inherited his father's introversion and mother's gentleness. Instead, he always liked to stay in one place quietly, and disliked crowds and noise - in fact, Lu Cheng didn't think it was a big deal, but adults always
He would compare himself with the children he knew well. In the end, Lu Cheng also felt that it was too shameful to fall behind Wen Yin. Therefore, he went to Tianque Peak this time to ask for orders to go to Shandong with Tianjiao to practice.
Along the way, I felt discouraged: Wen Yin, Wen Yin, it’s all your fault! If only you weren’t a girl!
When he was distracted, he accidentally tripped over a stone. Lu Cheng fell down the mountain road in shock. He was in a panic. It took him a long time to stand up after spraining his ankle. He was thinking about how to call for help when he heard someone's voice. Lu Cheng had no time to wonder.
How could there be anyone in such a remote place? I hurriedly wanted to shout, but the two people started talking.
"The rebellion in Shandong has spread throughout the valley, and their communication is too fast." The first man to speak was obviously from the Short Knife Valley.
"Yes, Lin Qian knew this because Yang Miaozhen escaped from the encirclement and suppressed the army and rushed to Longxi to ask for help from him." Another voice seemed to come from Longxi to join him.
"No wonder..." the former suddenly realized, "Lin Qian has already sent people to Shandong to help in the war. I think it would be best if you add more people to intercept them at the border."
"Send someone to Shandong to assist..." the latter pondered for a moment, "The one who takes the lead must be the genius Xu Yuan."
"Exactly. How did you know?" the former asked curiously.
"Because he is one against ten thousand... Just imagine who else besides Xu Yuan Lin Qian would use who both the Jin and Song Dynasties can easily guess without having to worry about him at all." As the latter spoke, he could not help but express his concern for Xu.
There is reverence for Yuan.
Lu Cheng was shocked, and then he realized: Oh my god! He actually hit the spy!?
Two years ago, after the battle between Yinyue and Luo Yuankong ended, both Haishengmingyue and Kongxianzhuang were temporarily stiff. Haishengmingyue was the first to be resurrected under the control of Lin Qian, and Kongxianzhuang would of course also be controlled by Wanyan Yonglian.
, with its new owner and organization. The wild fire will not burn out, but the spring breeze will blow again.
Lu Cheng was sweating profusely, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse.
"Is there still Yang Songxian? We can't do anything to Xu Yuan, but if we want to offend Yang Songxian, we can still try." The latter asked again.
Lu Cheng was even more shocked, and he couldn't help but become alert. Back then, when the Yinhen Knife was lost, Yang Songxian had saved Lu Cheng by fate, and he was Lu Cheng's lifesaver. When he learned that there was a spy who wanted to harm him, Lu Cheng would not be surprised!
"There is no Yang Songxian. Last night I listened to Xu Yuan's deployment. He and Song Heng will be the two generals who will go to Shandong to save the situation." the former replied.
"Song Heng...'Jiangxi conquers the world with one sword' among the nine points of the world? His combat prowess should indeed be on par with Yang Songxian. But when it comes to the relationship with the Red Coat Village, how can Song Heng defeat Yang Songxian?
"The latter was dubious, "Song Heng's rescue, will it be just Xu Yuan's smoke?"
"It can't be smoke. This time Xu Yuan deployed secrets, and the participants are all trustworthy people. I think it must be Xu Yuan's true decision." The former said.
"Are you sure that you are really the person he trusts?" the latter asked again. This kind of doubt was not only shared by that man, but also by Lu Cheng.
"It's completely certain." The former vowed, "Last night's meeting, only twelve people participated in the meeting, and not all of them were the supreme commander. It can be seen that Xu Yuan considered it based on the degree of credibility."
Lu Cheng's heartstrings tightened: Could it be that among the trustworthy people around Tianjiao, there were also spies?! It would have been better in previous years. Now the government and army rebels have been integrated... People in the government and army, even if Tianjiao believes in them, Lu Cheng can't
Can’t believe it all!
"In that case, keep an eye on Song Heng - be sure to hold him back and bring him down." The latter conveyed the order.
Lu Cheng wanted to see their faces, but was afraid of exposing himself, so he leaned against the stone and listened until his feet became numb. As soon as he stopped, the two of them were no longer where they were. Lu Cheng was so confused that he didn't understand.
How to deal with it, I thought it was more important to tell my father about the spy and convey it to Tianjiao.
When Tianjiao and others heard about this, they all knew that there was a high probability that there was another spy in the Short Blade Valley, but it was not necessarily determined among the generals of the army - Lin Qian worked hard to stabilize the Sichuan army. If rumors suddenly spread that there was a spy,
Isn’t it an act to undermine the morale of the army? Therefore, Lu Zheng told his son not to spread the word, and Lu Cheng nodded in agreement. Xu Yuan thought carefully that the words of the two spies relayed by Lu Cheng were true, and thought to himself, in this way, Song Heng’s going to the war will be
Facing a test...
It is very likely that the spy in the valley mentioned by Lu Cheng is not the spy who controls Xianzhuang, but the general of the Song Army bribed by the golden man. In other words, this spy is different from the previous Yin Yue, Wang Baoer and others. He
His original identity was the Song Army, and he betrayed the Jin people halfway. He was not personally trained by the enemy, but he was dedicated to running errands for them. Although he was not difficult to deal with, he was particularly bad... He was worried, how could Xu Yuan not be worried, last night only ten
The two attendees were truly the people he had given all his trust to.
Originally, Xu Yuan was very optimistic about Song Heng, but now a spy is eyeing him, which may cause a commotion among the Song family's masters on the way. The battle is about to begin, but something unexpected happens. Xu Yuan was meditating, and suddenly a thought came to his mind: Why not treat these spies?
The trick is to use Song Heng to lure the snake out of the hole first...?
At this moment, I heard the roar of people not far away, and the soldiers and generals were all here. Like Lu Cheng, these were all juniors who were willing to follow Tianjiao. They all felt that their martial arts were passable, and they were waiting for Tianjiao to promote them. Here at Tianque Peak
, it looks a bit like Yunwu Mountain back then... Xu Yuan looked at it from a distance and couldn't help but feel like he was back in the day.
Suddenly, Song Heng's voice sounded in his ears, and Xu Yuan couldn't help but be startled: Strange, why should Song Heng appear here?
It should be noted that the dispatch of masters from Short Blade Valley to Shandong to rescue the bureau was kept extremely confidential due to the risk of crossing the border. Which general took action was only allowed to be known to the twelve people who discussed it last night. They must not reveal even a single word, not even to subordinates or close associates.
No one can do it. Once tasks are assigned, everyone should perform their duties, cooperate with each other, and enforce orders and prohibitions. Song Heng, who is assigned to fight, should keep his mouth shut and step up his elite troops.
For the sake of Song Heng's safety, Xu Yuan used the pretext of selecting talents to draw the attention of all the Jin and Song people. Everything he did was to keep Song Heng's secret!
However, Xu Yuan was quite surprised that there were traitors among the generals he trusted. Now Song Heng came uninvited, with such great fanfare, and even dragged Yang Songxian with him. Why not teach Tianjiao to be even more surprised!
Before Xu Yuan could step forward, he heard Song Heng mocking Yang Songxian: "What's the 'jade-faced little white dragon'? Let's judge! The Shandong rebels are in danger, but as the leader, he doesn't go back to save him! Is that justified!?"
"
"I have my reasons." Yang Songxian suppressed his anger, "I am no longer the leader!"
"Ha, I want to hear your reasons! You are not a leader. I think you don't dare to go! There is no enjoyment in Sichuan and Shu in the Kingdom of Jin. You, Yang Songxian, are afraid of death and just live in peace! Are you afraid of death?
, I just like to pick some simple and safe battles to fight, and then follow my lord to receive the credit. When you receive the credit, you will be the leader again." Song Heng was dissatisfied, Xu Yuan couldn't help but frown, Yang Songxian
How could Xu Yuan not understand what kind of person he was? He was Lin Qian's most trusted and important person.
Yang Songxian was angry and funny: "General Song, there should be a limit to being outspoken. Are these the words that come out of the mouth of a general like you?"
"Song Heng." Xu Yuan saw that Song Heng was blushing and didn't know where his anger came from. He hurriedly interrupted and lowered his voice: "Song Heng, Miss Lanshan's mother is critically ill. Song Xian needs to accompany her to take care of her."
"Sounding!" Song Heng sneered, and Xu Yuan was stunned. Who were he scolding? Song Heng continued: "I can't stand people like him the most. There is no need to ask whether family property and national affairs are more important than others! How can it be because of a person?
A woman needs to be taken care of, and you don't even care about her own responsibilities? Tianjiao, you are too indulgent to him!" Unknowingly, the conversation turned to Xu Yuan. The more Xu Yuan listened, the more he felt that Song Heng's plan to go to war was going to go to waste. He said so
Quickly, they fully explained to the spies the facts and reasons why Yang Songxian did not go to Shandong and replaced him with Song Heng, so that the Jin people completely understood that their intelligence was accurate... It seems that on the way to the battle, the commotion among the Song family's soldiers and horses will not be unexpected.
If it's too big, at least the trip will be delayed. In Xu Yuan's heart, he was vaguely looking for other candidates, feeling that no one was more suitable for him at the moment.
"Song Heng, I never said I don't care. I just want to wait for this troubled period to pass." Yang Songxian whispered.
Song Heng was stunned: "Huh, after the battle is over, why don't you go over there and wait to reap the benefits?" "Song Heng!" Xu Yuan stopped him, but Song Heng refused to let him go and walked towards the group of soldiers who followed Yang Songxian.
Among them: "Who among you has the courage to follow me, Song Heng, to enter the Kingdom of Jin and fight against the Jin Army?! You are risking your brains being moved all the time!"
The subordinates who followed Song Xian were all silent. At first they didn't know what Song Heng was asking Yang Songxian to do, but now they understand, how can they change jobs in front of their boss? Although this scene is tense, it is difficult to analyze it in depth.
Quite funny.
"Do you dare? Do you dare? Do you dare!?" None of the guards or generals who were asked by Song Heng responded.
"..." Xu Yuan watched this scene as it was overwhelming: Song Heng had deliberately exaggerated the danger in order to bring out Yang Songxian's timidity.
To be continued...
