The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1151 To Xingyuan Mansion
On this day and night alone, they caught up with the Dali army that had set off two days ago.

Dali soldiers camped in the wilderness.

Torches flickered in the camp.

Only the barracks are not too big.

When Duan Qilin was in Dali, Feng Hebi, Wang Ziqian, and Chi Fenggu led the attack on the Song Dynasty. They sent hundreds of thousands of troops, and they were defeated in the end.This is close to lighting up Dali's family foundation.

Although there were hundreds of thousands of people who followed him from Dali to Jiading Mansion, the vast majority of them were ordinary people, and there were only less than 7 real soldiers.

Moreover, this still counts all the forbidden troops and defenders that Duan Qilin brought over.

And Chi Fenggu has led [-] soldiers to Tongchuan Mansion.Those who went to the Chongqing government were less than [-] soldiers, and they could only be regarded as mobs.

There are no more troops in the Xin Song Dynasty.

Looking at the entire New Song Dynasty, except for the imperial guards in the palace and the defenders of the cities, Duan Qilin, a soldier who can be mobilized, has already pushed him to the front line.

Chengdu Mansion, Tongchuan Mansion, and now Chongqing Mansion.

Among them, Tongchuan Prefecture has the largest number of soldiers, with more than [-] people.

Chengdu Mansion is next, with more than [-] people.

The least is the current Chongqing government.

Qin Han's Luzhou Army was almost wiped out in Chongqing, which made it impossible for Duan Qilin to deploy a heavy army in Chongqing.

Fortunately, the territory of the Xin Song Dynasty was narrow, and the terrain was steep with high mountains and dense forests.Otherwise, the situation in the Xin Song Dynasty will only be more difficult.

Although it is said that they still have more than [-] troops, this is really too little for the whole country.

You know, even if Zhao Dongting implemented the policy of elite soldiers in the Song Dynasty, because of the vast territory, the total number of soldiers in the entire Song Dynasty was hundreds of thousands.

That is to say, Zhao Dongting couldn't transfer all the banned troops from all over the country to Chongqing Mansion at this time, otherwise, there would be no way for the New Song Dynasty to survive.

After the group of Palace Master Guigu arrived outside the barracks, they quickly alarmed the generals in the barracks.

This Dali army, Duan Qilin did not continue to give command to the generals of Dali.Now, it is led by a man named Du Xiuwei in Guigu Academy.

Although Du Xiuwei's performance in Guigu Academy is far less impressive than those of Qin Han, Wang Zigan, etc., but if he is placed outside, he is an excellent talent.

Duan Qilin sent him to serve as the general of this Dali army and went to Chongqing, which was also a helpless move.

The top talents in Guigu Academy are dying now, and those who voted for Da Song voted for Da Song, and the top talents are only the master of Guigu, the deputy master of the palace, and Chi Fenggu.

Duan Qilin had no choice but to promote these inferior talents.Because these people are always much better than most civil and military generals in the court, especially courts like the Xin Song Dynasty and Dali.

The long-term stability made the officials and generals of the two dynasties less sharp.

And since Du Xiuwei is a member of Guigu Academy, he dare not neglect the master of Guigu Palace.

As soon as he heard the report from the soldiers that the Palace Master of Guigu had arrived outside the camp, he hurriedly ran to the outside of the camp.When he saw the Palace Master of Ghost Valley, he even knelt down and saluted, "The student has met the teacher."

He is also a direct disciple of Palace Master Guigu.

But Palace Master Guigu just nodded slightly to him, "Get up!"

For this disciple who has followed him since he was young, studied military books hard, and diligently studied, but due to talent limitations, he has never been able to become the top disciple.Palace Master Guigu was a little disappointed.

Especially at the moment when Qin Han died and Xin Song urgently needed to be a great talent on his own, seeing Du Xiuwei, Palace Master Guigu would inevitably feel even more disappointed.

Immediately afterwards, he sighed softly again.

After all, great talents are not so easy to cultivate.It takes hard work and more talent.

In fact, Du Xiuwei is considered pretty good.Although he is not at the top of Guigu Academy, he can be a great leader no matter which court he goes to.

Perhaps it was because of this moment of tenderness that Palace Master Guigu felt a bit of sympathy for Du Xiuwei in his heart.

He patted Du Xiuwei on the shoulder in a rare way, and said, "Xiu Wei, have you been by my teacher's side for more than thirty years?"

Du Xiuwei, who was over forty years old, was slightly surprised, and nodded in agreement, "Yes, the students have been with the teacher for 32 years and five months."

Palace Master Guigu nodded slightly, "I am old, thanks to you taking care of me all these years."

After that, he walked towards the barracks.At this moment, his eyes were slightly different.

Du Xiuwei didn't realize it, he just followed and asked, "Why did the teacher come in person all of a sudden?"

The Palace Master of Guigu sighed, and said: "Qin Han was killed by Qingwu, and the young master asked me to go to Chongqing Mansion to sit in charge."

Du Xiuwei was extremely surprised in an instant, "Junior brother is dead?"

Immediately afterwards, he asked: "Why did Qing Wu kill her junior brother? She shouldn't be from the Song Kingdom."

Qing Wu also went to the Pojun Academy since she was a child. At that time, the two palaces of Guigu and Pojun were still hidden from the world. It was impossible for the Song Dynasty to suddenly place such a spy in the two palaces.

The Palace Master of Ghost Valley lost his interest, and said: "She is from Wuzhou. The people in Chongqing are in trouble, and Qin Han wants to slaughter the city again. She thinks she doesn't want to see Qin Han go on like this."

After speaking, there will be no further text.

On this matter, he obviously didn't want to say more.Don't even want to think about it.

Qin Han was the favorite student he admired the most, and his heart ached when he died.

Du Xiuwei was also very knowledgeable, so he didn't pursue this matter further.

After arriving in the military tent, he immediately handed over his tiger talisman to Palace Master Guigu.

The Lord of Ghost Valley also accepted it.

He stayed in the army with dozens of masters that night.

The next day, he went to Chongqing with the army.

Dozens of masters did not cause much disturbance in the army, because they did not reveal their cultivation, and the soldiers did not know the details of these people.

So the past few days.

Yue Peng, Wen Qi and Xiao Yulin led the Tiankui and Tianjie armies through Dazhou and arrived tens of miles north of Tongchuan Mansion.

Du Hu and Zheng Yihang have camped here for half a month.

Tongchuan Mansion's army did not go out of the city, so they were only training soldiers in the camp, and had no intention of attacking Tongchuan Mansion in a hurry.

Xinsong Lizhou East Road.

He Liancheng and Qu Rujian led more than [-] troops through Pengzhou and Bazhou, and continued to go north without encountering much resistance, and they finally arrived outside Dexingyuan Mansion.

Although the [-] army is really not a large number of soldiers, but for the current Lizhou East Road, this is a force that cannot be ignored.

Pang Hongguang also knew that he was at a critical moment these days, and tried his best to transfer all the soldiers and horses that could be mobilized to Xingyuan Mansion.

Even so, there are only a few thousand defenders in Xingyuan Mansion at this time.

Everyone can see that Pang Hongguang is in decline, and even the officials who used to be loyal to him now have many choices to draw a line with him.

Speaking of it, these people are considered pretty good if they didn't get into trouble.

If it wasn't for Pang Hongguang's prestige in everyone's hearts these years, he would have been killed by the people below even without the need for He Liancheng and Qu Rujian to arrive.

His head is now the treasure that his cronies in the past surrendered to the empress.

Those who are still willing to follow him to guard Xingyuan Mansion are all his loyalists.

When He Liancheng and Qu Rujian led the army to the south gate of Xingyuan Mansion, Pang Hongguang also rushed to the top of the city in person.

Seeing the banners and banners of the Imperial Army of Xixia unfurling, his expression was unsurprisingly ugly.

There was no sign of Tongchuan Mansion sending troops to help, which naturally disappointed and resented him.

He knew that he had been regarded as an abandoned pawn by the young master and Guigu Xuegong.

Only he has no choice.

Because even if he chooses to abandon Guigu Academy now, the empress will never spare his life again.

He secretly planned to work with Xin Song to destroy Helian City and Qu Rujian, which is a heinous crime.Not only would he not be able to live, but his family members would also have to die.

In front of the army outside the city, Helian City slowly drove forward.

Now he is quite high-spirited.

Pointing the spear in his hand at Pang Hongguang on the top of the city, He Liancheng yelled: "Pang Hongguang, if you are sensible, then immediately go down to the city and arrest him without a fight, and wait for the emperor to punish you! So as not to harm the innocent!"

Pang Hongguang sneered, "I can live if I'm captured without a fight? Can my brothers live?"

Then he suddenly raised his head and laughed, a little sad, "It's just that Pang made a bad move and was tricked by that woman! Haha! If you want to attack the city, you can attack the city. Pang also wants to see it. What kind of patience do you have?"

Although he has been an official in Yuan Dynasty and Xixia Dynasty all these years, he is from Guigu Academy.In the art of war, he has also made great achievements.
