Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

Page 517

Wanyan Wulu was moved by Wanyan Loushi's fearless aura, and finally decided to lead troops to join the battle to support Wanyan Loushi.

Wanyan Loushi led the troops out of Lingye Ridge, leaving Wanyan Ba ​​Lisu to guard it with [-] soldiers, while he himself led the troops to approach the Xixia army.

General Li Liangfu of the Xixia Army heard that Wanyan Loushi came out of Lingyeling to challenge him, so he led his troops across the river and formed a square formation against Wanyan Loushi.

Wanyan Loushi saw that the Xixia army's lineup was not complete, and thought that there was a chance to defeat the enemy.He divided his army into two teams, and he and Wan Yanxi each led a team, taking turns charging to challenge the Xixia army.

The Xixia army bullied Wanyan Loushi's few soldiers, intending to encircle and wipe out Wanyan Loushi's army.

Wanyan Loushi fought and retreated, and fought for thirty miles, leading the Xixia army to the vicinity of Yishui.

When the Xixia army was chaotically crossing the river to pursue Wanyan Loushi's army, the Jin army led Wanyan Wulu's army to the battlefield, and suddenly attacked the Xixia army crossing the river from the flank.

Under the pincer attack of Wanyan Loushi and Wanyan Wulu, Li Liangfu's army was defeated and thousands of people were annihilated.

The Xixia army was defeated and fled in the wild valley. When they were crossing the river to flee for their lives, due to the continuous heavy rain and flash floods, countless Xixia troops were drowned.

This battle was the first time the Xixia Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom fought against each other. In the end, relying on the hard work of Jin Guo's strong general Wanyan Loushi, the Jin Army defeated the Xixia Kingdom's [-] army with thousands of people.

After this defeat, the Xixia Kingdom personally experienced the strength of the Jin army, and never dared to be an enemy of the Jin Kingdom.

When the Emperor Wanyan Aguda of the Jin Kingdom personally led his troops from the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing to pursue Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom until Dayubo, the Xixia Kingdom sent envoys to the Kingdom of Jin to ask for peace from the Emperor Wanyan Aguda of the Kingdom of Jin.

The contest between the Jin army and the Xixia army that took place in the Tiande Army of the Liao Kingdom had a profound impact on the Jin Kingdom and the Xixia Kingdom. Since then, the Xixia Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom have established exchanges and respect the Jin Kingdom.

When Wanyan Aguda arrived at Xijing Road in the Liao Kingdom, Yelu Yanxi, Emperor Tianzuo of the Liao Kingdom, assembled [-] tribal cavalry to go to Nanjing to regain the throne.

How do you know that in the territory of Xijing Road, the army of Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi was discovered and defeated by the Jin army.

Knowing that his old rival Wanyan Agu was coming, Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi was frightened and fled again.

Emperor Wanyan Aguda of Jin Kingdom ordered Wanyan Yu and Wanyan Zongwang to pursue Emperor Tianzuo.

The Jin Emperor Wanyan Aguda entered Xijing Road, and the unfavorable news that the [-] Xixia Army was defeated by the Jin Army spread one after another to Prime Minister Li Chuwen, which made Li Chuwen feel more and more that the building was about to collapse and his future was bleak.

As the prime minister of the Liao Kingdom, Li Chuwen originally looked down on eunuchs like Tong Guan, but now the situation forced him to choose to make friends with the Taiwei Tong Guan, leaving a few more options for his future self .

After receiving Li Chuwen's reply, Taiwei Tongguan once again had hope of regaining Yandi.So, he slowed down the speed of retreating, and walked slowly to Hejian Mansion, where he quietly watched the changing situation in Yanjing City.

Tong Guan's move made it convenient for Ximen Qing who came from Cangzhou City.

The coalition forces of Jiang Zhong and Zhu Dian got rid of the pursuit of the Liao army. After returning from the territory of Liao, Ximen Qing and Du Chong separated after dividing the stolen goods in Xiaonanhezhai.

Ximen Qing ordered Jiang Zhong and Duan Jingzhu to bring the thousands of horses and grain they had seized back to Zhuangzi in Henghai County, Cangzhou, to expand the size of the light cavalry.On the other hand, he, Jiao Ting, Qiao Yun, Yue Fei and others rushed to Hejian Mansion with the stolen gold and silver to "consolate" the defeated Western Army.

Under the wise decision-making of Taiwei Tongguan and Duguan Zhongshidao, the [-] western troops lost troops and lost their generals.

Ximen Qing knew that Lu Zhishen and the others were holding back their anger, so he came to meet with them specially to explain and persuade them.

Because Tong Guan marched slowly, Ximenqing caught up with Lu Zhishen and his party in the middle army of the Zhongshi in Hejian Mansion.

Ximenqing's business and intelligence networks spread all over Hebei and Shandong, and he also has his own restaurant in Hejianfu, Hebei.

After finding Lu Zhishen and the others, Ximen Qing invited the lost Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, Guo Sheng and Cao Zheng to his restaurant, and held a feast for them.

While drinking, talking about the defeat of Baigou Station and Xiongzhou, Lu Zhi gritted his teeth with deep hatred.

In these two battles, Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi were extremely brave and killed hundreds of people in the melee.Guo Sheng and Cao Zheng also led Erlongshan's brothers to kill many enemy troops.

It's a pity that this was a big battle with 10,000+ people. The bloody battle of Erlongshan generals failed to turn the tide and change the situation of defeat.

In the end, Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi and others could only protect Zhong Shidao, and the brothers Zhong Shizhong escaped from birth, and they were extremely aggrieved.

Afterwards, Taiwei Tong Guan put all the responsibility for the defeat of the army on the head of Xiaozhong's strategist Gongzhong Shidao, and let him be dismissed and forced to retire, which made the generals of the Zhongjia army even more angry.

If Teacher Zhong didn't know Lu Zhishen's temper and asked him to take care of Lu Zhishen in advance, Lu Zhishen would almost hit Taiwei Tong's Xuanfu Si Yamen with his Zen stick.

Sitting with brother Ximenqing and eating wine at this time, Lu Zhishen still gritted his teeth to vent his dissatisfaction.

Because Zhong Shidao was Lu Zhishen's old boss, Lu Zhishen naturally ignored Zhong Shidao's mistakes in command, and attributed the failure to Tong Taiwei and his Xuan Fusi.

Although Yang Zhi was not as angry as Lu Zhishen, he sighed and was depressed when his dream of making contributions was shattered this time.

While drinking with Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi and others, Ximen Qing persuaded them that victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, and they should not be dejected by temporary success or failure. On the other hand, he winked at Qiao Yunge, Yue Fei, Wang Gui and others.

So, under the influence of alcohol, Qiao Yunge, Yue Fei, Wang Gui and other young people did not talk about the door, and inadvertently told the happy past when they entered the Liao Kingdom a few days ago, like entering no one's land.

A few young people talked about it like a child's play.

Hearing that Yue Fei broke the Liao army and almost killed the general of the Liao army with one shot, both Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi stared like copper bells with incredible expressions on their faces.

After careful questioning about how Yue Fei and others entered the Liao Kingdom, Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi and others realized that the siege of Xiongzhou could be broken so quickly. It attracted the Liao army to return to the north.

People are better than others, so angry, Lu Zhishen suddenly felt that it is too useless to fight with the army, and he should follow the resourceful Ximen Qing to lead the army to fight happily!

It's just that Mr. Xiaozhong's manager is also kind to him. At this time when he is in trouble, Lu Zhishen will not choose to abandon him at this time.

Full of thoughts, Lu Zhishen drank several large bowls of wine vigorously.

Chapter 8 ZTE Four Generals

Ximen Qing, Lu Zhishen and the others were drinking and learned that although the Taiwei Tong Guan had somehow slowed down on the way to retreat, he would have to rest for many days when he arrived at Hejian Mansion.However, because Zhong Shidao bore the first responsibility for the defeat and was punished by the court, Zhong Shizhong decided to ignore the Taiwei Tong Guan, and quickly returned to Weizhou with his army and horses according to the order of the court.

The troops of Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi belonged to the Zhong Family Army, so they would soon return to Shaanxi Fifth Road with the Zhong Division.It will not be so easy to meet Ximen Qing in the future.

After hearing this, Ximen Qing was not worried but happy.

Ximenqing remembered that Song Jun would attack Liao for the second time in a short time, and the result was even worse than the first defeat.

If Lu Zhishen and others would participate in the second expedition against Liao, Ximen Qing would have to take great pains to keep them out of the matter as much as possible, so as not to lose their lives outside Yanjing City for nothing.

At this time, it was heard that Lu Zhishen and others would follow Zhong Shizhong back to Shaanxi Fifth Road, but Ximen Qing let go of one of his worries.

Ximen Qing accompanied Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi to have a few bowls of wine, and comforted them by saying that he expected Xiaozhong's manager to be all right, and that he would be reappointed by the court in a short time.

The brothers from Erlongshan might as well follow Lu Zhishen to Weizhou, which is close to the border of Xixia, and there are many opportunities to make contributions.

Lu Zhi felt much relieved when he heard Ximen Qing's swearing prediction that Master Zhong would make a comeback.He finally turned his worries into joy, bragging to everyone that he fought against the Liao army in the selection front army, and beat the enemy into the air with a Zen stick.

For a while, there were many hearty laughter in the restaurant.

Yang Zhi was originally depressed because of his failure to accomplish an inch, but after Ximen Qing's enlightenment, he cheered up again, looking forward to going to the northwest border to fight the Xixia people.In an instant, Yang Zhi's brows also relaxed.

Brother Ximenqing is right, my "green-faced beast" Yang Zhi will always have a bright future!

……

Ximen Qing accompanied Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi to eat in the restaurant for two hours, and the guests and hostess had a good time, and they did not go home until they were drunk.
