Chapter 322 The Golden Man Has Arrived
The minds of Geng Nanzhong and others soon fell to nothing.

Prince Zhao Heng issued an order to recruit the horse and infantry divisions stationed outside the city to select [-] elites to enter the city, a total of [-] elites.

The Mabu Army Division belonged to the former Third Division. Since it was stationed outside the city all the year round, it was not disturbed by the bad wind from the front division of the palace in the city. In addition, it was involved in the defense of Bianjing, so it attracted the attention of the emperor. What top elites, but the combat power is still passable, even if it is not as good as the Golden Cavalry, but four thousand against two thousand, it is still in the urban terrain that the opponent cannot deploy, plus the Royal Forest Army and the Yingtian Army next to it, no matter what. It's all safe.

Although they had decided to listen to Lin Chong and let Yan Zonghan and the two thousand cavalry into the city, they still had to do enough defense first.

After all, he didn't have Lin Shuhang's vision beyond the times, and he didn't have Lin Shuhang's confidence. It must be a lie to say that he was not worried at all and completely trusted Lin Chong when he was led by such a powerful enemy with two thousand elites into the city.

Although Lin Chong seemed quite confident and told him that Ying Tianjun's training had achieved initial results, the more Lin Chong said this, the more panicked Zhao Heng became.

He thought that Lin Chong had other arrangements to deal with Wanyan Zonghan and his cavalry, but the other party actually wanted to use the newly formed Yingtian Army to deal with it...

Zhao Heng is not stupid, nor is he a marionette with no ideas of his own. What can the Ying Tian Army be trained for less than a month after it was established?Can it handle Wanyan Zonghan's two thousand elite cavalry?Even if people can't ride horses in Bianjing City, you can play infantry with you, and you, Ying Tianjun, can't play with the elites with big arms and round waists.

Lin Chong dared to bet, but he, Zhao Heng, dared not.

This Lin Chong is good at everything, but he is a little too confident.

He made his own decision on this matter, but the reaction below was wonderful.

On the one hand, Lin Chong smiled and said nothing. In the Prince's mind, he understood that it was only natural for him to have 100% trust in himself. In other words, there is no such thing as [-]% trust in this world. The so-called trust is all based on on the basis of equivalence.

Of course, there is no need to argue with Zhao Heng about this kind of thing. No matter how he arranges it, it will make Bianjing's defense more stable, which is always a good thing, even if it will make Ying Tianjun less performance and Opportunities for actual combat testing, but such opportunities are more common in the late Northern Song Dynasty, so don't fight for this moment.

On the other side, Geng Nanzhong, Wu Min and others just gritted their teeth with hatred.

The crown prince made it clear that he wanted to protect the Ying Tian army, stationed in the city with troops several times larger than the Jin people, and taught the Jin people not to act rashly, naturally there was no chance for the Ying Tian army to make a fool of himself.

They have been holding it together for a long time, and finally waited for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to overthrow Lin Chong. Is it really going to fail?

But Zhao Heng dispatched soldiers and horses into the city to strengthen defense is a matter of course, even if persuaded, there is no reason to persuade.

"Brother Geng is a member of the Ministry of Rites, Wailang, and Shang Shu has just resigned. Among the Ministry of Rites, Brother Geng is the largest. After receiving Yan Zonghan this time, Brother Geng is also responsible for everything."

In the secret room, Wu Min said in a deep voice: "This matter can only fall on Brother Geng. After receiving Yan Zonghan, he took the opportunity to say that he is very powerful. Didn't Lin Chong ask His Highness to counter the price of ten thousand taels of silver? That's the only one." , can make Wanyan Zonghan hate him to the bone, as long as Wanyan Zonghan is willing to take the initiative to cause trouble for Lin Chong and Ying Tianjun, then he will not be able to hide!"

"What a shrewd person is Wanyan Zonghan? How could he fail to see our intention to take advantage of him?" Tang Ke frowned.

Geng Nanzhong smiled slightly: "So what if you see it? Politics has always been about profit, regardless of the original intention. If Lin Chong doesn't fall, his idea of ​​Wanyan Zonghan asking for money will be difficult to realize. We can also make a promise with him. If we can Bring down Lin Chong for us, bring the court back under our control, so what if you allow him a million gold! Even if the national treasury is not enough, we and the officials will do our best to donate part of it, which is almost enough, and we can rely on This is for the prince and His Majesty to share their worries and problems, and regain their trust and favor!"

Tang Ke was shocked and said: "How is this move, this move different from betraying the country?"

"It's just a little money, what kind of country are you selling?" Wu Min glanced at him coldly: "Brother Tang, you really don't understand the situation? You look at the Prince's expression, it's as if you have taken a reassurance... The prince's trust in Lin Chong has long been beyond your imagination. If there is no major mistake, Lin Chong will not fall, and if Lin Chong does not die, we will all die without burial. Earth too!"

"I'm afraid the prince has already seen through my desire to kill, and deliberately maintained stability to buy time for Lin Chong's Yingtian army. I was careless." Geng Nanzhong also said: "Now that the situation of fire and water has been established, Lin Chong will be fine. , I will die slowly like a frog boiled in warm water! Either we will overthrow Lin Chong. Although we spend money, we will regain the trust of the prince, enjoy wealth and glory, and be famous in history by virtue of taking back the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun! "

Tang Ke was a little hesitant at first, but when he heard the last words, he finally nodded fiercely: "It's done!"

………………

Hebi County...

The army and horses were stationed outside the county seat, and the [-] horse infantry led by Zhang Han, the commander of the right army, was in a state of protection and isolation from the county seat closer to the county seat, while in the further periphery, groups of soldiers were built. The tent, that is where the two thousand cavalry camp led by Wanyan Zonghan was located.

Liu Dahong, the magistrate, had already received the news that he brought cattle, sheep, wine and meat to the labor army to receive him. Before I had time to enjoy it, I tasted the good wine and meat sent by Liu Dahong, the magistrate of Hebi County, and everyone was smiling. They were singing and dancing while drinking and eating meat in the camp.

In the largest handsome tent in the middle, Wanyan Zonghan is drinking with a person, but looking at his sitting posture, Wanyan Zonghan is actually leaning back slightly, with a hint of respect for that person, which is really surprising.

In today's Jin Kingdom, apart from Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguda, there are many famous generals and commanders of the Wanyan family, such as Wanyan Zongwang, the second son of Taizu, Wanyan Liang, who is said to be undefeated and who killed the king and usurped the throne. Wanyan Zongbi, the sixth son of the ancestors, is also the famous Jin Wushu in later generations, but because the unification of the Jin Kingdom has been ahead of schedule, these famous generals of the Jin Kingdom are still a little young.

And Wanyan Zonghan is the eldest son of the Prime Minister Wanyan Sagai. Not only did he serve the Taizu as a dragon, but he also made great achievements in the battle of destroying the Liao Dynasty. At the peak of his power, he was also the undisputed second in command of the Kingdom of Jin today.

With his status, he actually respects another person. Could it be that this person is Wanyan Aguda?

But it doesn't look like age... Wanyan Aguda is only 48 years old at this time, and his long-term horseback career makes him a prime man at this time, but the person sitting opposite Wanyan Zonghan seems to be too old at this time, And it's the kind of aging that is visible to the naked eye, with as many wrinkles on the face as a Shar Pei.

His movements and mannerisms are also very slow, as if moving even a little bit would waste his enormous strength, except for those eyes... which seem to be cloudy and dull, but occasionally turn and shoot out the shining light, which seems to stab the eyes of others. Eye!
"National Teacher, I respectfully offer you a toast." Wanyan Zonghan toasted the old man respectfully while holding the wine glass.

But the old man said indifferently: "The Liao Dynasty is gone, the old man should retire after he has completed his achievements. After this trip to the south, when he returns to Shangjing, he will be the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha. After this remnant life, there will be only one person in the world without a national teacher. Commander, don’t call me wrong again.”

"In my heart, you will always be Dajin's national teacher." Wanyan Zonghan drank the wine in his glass with a big smile, then changed the subject and said, "But having said that, although the Song Kingdom is weak, There are a lot of hidden masters inside, I think that child is hiding it, but it seems that such a person has been killed by someone... If it is really a hidden dragon and crouching tiger, if you encounter him, you still need to rely on your old strength, don't worry , I will not bother you when you are idle, and will bother you to take action when you are really helpless."

"Tong Guan is not a member of the Jianghu, and he doesn't know much about Jianghu affairs. I saw him make a move when I was in Zhongjing. Although his cultivation is superb, his fighting quality is hard to describe, and defeat is normal..."

The old man responded with a faint nod, slowly picked up the wine glass, facing the toast from the No. [-] person in the Kingdom of Jin, he just put it to his lips and took a small sip, which was regarded as a big face.

"This is the last time..." He said casually, "After the Liao eradication, my wish has been fulfilled. Although the people of Song Dynasty have old hatred with me, after all, raising my son is worth the merit and demerit. I have always had clear grievances and grievances with Song Dynasty, and I have no intention of helping you to make enemies with Song Dynasty. This trip to the south is actually to sweep the grave of your teacher, and it is just a way for you. After that, I will stay in Beijing for a long time. I will not help you attack Song Dynasty, but if someone If you attack gold, you will take action, this is an agreement."

"Understood!" Wanyan Zonghan immediately said: "The trip to the grave has prepared a generous gift for the seniors in the distant mountains. Songshan Shaolin will inevitably reshape the golden body! In the upper capital, a temple has been built for the seniors. When I come back, the work will be completed! At that time, the seniors will stay in the temple to clean up, and the juniors will also be convenient to visit from time to time..."

The old man glanced at him lightly, interrupted his words and said: "There is no need to visit. Since it is a pure cultivation, I should avoid being disturbed by others... I understand your thoughts. After I have been to Shaolin, when I return to Beijing, I will take care of you." Several sets of martial arts are compiled into a book and handed over to you. As for whether you pass it on to your son or the princes, it is all up to the old man... Immortal law in this world has faded away, and even if I teach it alone, it is impossible to break the way with martial arts. But as long as you practice hard, you will have no problem becoming a first-class master in the world, galloping across the battlefield, and taking the head of the enemy among thousands of armies."

Wanyan Zonghan was overjoyed when he heard that, regardless of his own status, he quickly stood up and bowed to the old man to the end, thanking him: "Senior Yuanshan's actions are tantamount to benefiting my great gold, please accept Wanyan Zonghan's worship!"

The old man accepted his gift, nodded his head and said: "When I return to Shangjing, I will not go to Aguda's side. Now that the grievances are over, the meeting will only add to the sadness. You tell him that even if he attacks Song, Also don't forget the original intention, don't forget the meaning of sworn brotherhood with his righteous brother at the beginning."

Wanyan Zonghan smiled, although he said yes, but the old man saw the perfunctory meaning in his eyes, and he just sighed secretly.

The golden man's heart to go south to swallow the Song Dynasty has been fulfilled. Even if he, even if he has a special status in front of Wanyan Aguda, he can be regarded as his adoptive father, but it is related to the success or failure of the family. He can dissuade him with a few words.

What's more, all the things in the past are now like floating clouds to him, and he has long looked down upon them. For the future changes of Song and Jin, not taking the initiative to participate is the last respect for Song, and the rest has nothing to do with him.

"Yes."

Just as he was talking, someone reported outside the door: "Report to the commander-in-chief, there is a letter from Bianjing."

"Old and old, too weak to drink, the commander-in-chief should handle official duties by himself." The old man slowly stood up and left, his movements were slow and staggering, but Wanyan Zonghan was very clear about the frightening aspect of this person. It is better than thousands of troops!

"Congratulations to send the seniors!"

………………

In the city of Bianjing.

Lin Shuhang went step by step, and still stayed in the camp of the Yingtian army without leaving home. The training of the Yingtian army was more complicated than usual, and some training items were temporarily added.

For example, the three steps of stabbing the gun, raising the gun, and retracting the gun, although there are few movements, they need to be combined with the usual training queue, and they must be combined with various disturbances, such as the instructor suddenly yelling at the side. , For example, hot water is suddenly splashed on the face, or a wooden block is suddenly thrown from the side, etc., all of which are required not to hide, not to have any reaction, only to become a mechanized member of the team, so that the whole team can move completely in unison ...

This difficulty can be very high.

Although the new items like this have some similarities with the usual training, after all, the intensity has increased sharply, and those groups in the training camp who have struggled to stabilize their scores have started to have frequent deductions. At least the teams that are usually passable are now on the verge of being eliminated, and the training atmosphere of the entire Ying Tian Army is extremely tense.

However, all this is beyond the knowledge of the outside world.

Not to mention the outside world, even Zhao Heng doesn't know what Ying Tianjun is practicing now, because he really has no time to run to the Yingtian Army barracks recently.

After dealing with the arrival of Yan Zonghan and the negotiations with the Jinren, there are so many important things to be busy and prepared, including reception etiquette, etc. He, the prince who has just taken office, has to learn from the beginning, so there is no time to go to meet him. The Sky Army watched the training progress.

The other hundred officials are also busy.

Geng Nanzhong, a member of the Ministry of Rites, is now the head of the Ministry of Rites, and all matters such as welcoming Yan Zonghan are naturally handled by him.

It is not good to be too grand, after all, the other party is just a courtier, not Wanyan Aguda himself. If the standard is too high, it will put Da Song on the weak side of the negotiating table; but if it is too ordinary, it will not work. The strength of Liao and Jin is obvious to all. Although the people of Song didn't talk about it, they knew the relationship of 'Jin>Liao>Song'.

What's more, Wanyan Zonghan came this time to show off his strength and prestige, and the reception was too ordinary, I'm afraid it would be an opportunity for the other party to find fault.

So according to the regulations for receiving the vassal king, I added many details privately. To put it bluntly, the specifications are only the vassal king's specifications, such as ceremonial guards, clothing, reception terms, etc., but the cost is absolutely inconsiderate. He was doing very well, and it was expected that the golden barbarian would not be able to recognize the difference.

The seemingly peaceful city of Bianjing was full of busyness inside and outside the court hall. Until April 25th, the whole city of Bianjing went from Nanxun Gate in the outer city to Zhuque Gate in the inner city, and then to Xuande Gate in the imperial city. All the imperial streets have been temporarily sealed off, cleared up, red carpets are spread under the city gates, and a hundred officials, headed by Geng Nanzhong, a member of the Rites Department, are waiting outside the gate of Nanxun.

The ministers were chattering, but fortunately the weather was not too hot, so we had to wait, and when the sun was three poles high, a fast horse came running from the south and shouted: "The golden man has arrived!"

　When writing this chapter, I suddenly had a very brain-burning question. In the Northern Song Dynasty, how did the courtiers of the Jin people call Wanyan Aguda?Taizu should be a posthumous title, right?I searched around on Baidu and couldn't find it, and I can't remember the TV I watched all of a sudden. Can anyone who knows know the answer?
