Dawn of the Empire

Chapter 240 Drive the horse back to your hometown (1)

"My... my lord, what are you going to do?" Liu Zheng saw Zhao Xingde's face clearly, but he still couldn't believe his ears.When it comes out like this at a time, it's not the same as sworn revenge.Zhao Xingde scolded: "Didn't you hear the military order clearly? Do it quickly!" He took a torch next to the gun and handed it to Du Chuanjiao.

From the corner of Wanyan Zongbi's eyes, he kept secretly paying attention to the situation around him.In order not to prevent these Han army chiefs from having fun, he deliberately sent out all the guards in the tent, and now even if he wanted to stop them, there was no manpower.Seeing the lampstands and torches hanging around the tent being lit one by one, Wanyan Zongbi's face was gloomy, he pushed the maid in his arms away, straightened up and stared at Zhao Xingde.The blazing fire danced and swayed, and the faces of the seventeen or eighteen Han army leaders who were still able to hold their own showed relief. Some of the Han army generals who were disturbed by their "good things" looked around looking for the "culprit".The Han troops who came to the alliance this time were all elites selected from various villages. Some were still gently comforting the girl in their arms, while others cursed angrily, "What's going on?" "Which one is it?" The bastards lit the torches?" There were many ferocious men among them, who were shirtless at the moment and pulled out their iron knives casually.

There was silence all around, Zhao Xingde stood in the center of the big tent, Du Chuijiao and Liu Zheng both put their hands on the handle of the knife nervously.Public anger cannot be violated. If eyes could kill, Zhao Xingde would have been chopped into seventeen or eighth sections by now.But he didn't seem to notice it, looked around, and asked in a deep voice: "Blowing the horn, how long have we been out of the stockade?" His voice was not loud, but everyone could hear him clearly.The faces of many generals of the Han army in the tent also showed complicated expressions.

Mr. Han Da, who hurried over after hearing the news, was standing outside the tent, and his heart sank when he heard this question.

Du Chuijiao was taken aback, and replied casually: "It's been more than 40 days."

Zhao Xingde nodded, and asked: "There is no harvest in April, do you know if the brothers in the village can have enough to eat?" Du Chuijiao understood Zhao Xingde's meaning a little at this time, and said loudly: "Last year's stored grain, plus the wild vegetables excavated, Bodhisattva bless you, don’t starve to death the old man and the children.” Hearing this question and answer, the anger of the Han army leaders who were full of tents gradually disappeared, many faces were ashamed, and only a few remained dismissive.

Mr. Han Da who was standing outside the tent sighed slightly.He asked himself that both literary talent and military strategy are outstanding, but they are not the direct descendants of the Han family. After careful pursuit, there are even more ulterior secrets. Therefore, he has always been willing to be a counselor, planning to destroy the Liao for the Jurchen Jin Kingdom. Just like when Han Kuangsi assisted the Liao Kingdom, he achieved a lifetime of achievements.In order to win over these generals of the Han army for the Kingdom of Jin, Mr. Han Da spared no effort in arranging several receptions for the Jurchen dignitaries in the past ten days.He asked himself that step by step, Han Ningshuang, a woman, couldn't stop it at all, but who would have expected that the envoy of the Xia Kingdom surnamed Zhao would jump out to disrupt the situation and make troubles.

Zhao Xingde continued to ask: "The singing and dancing here is peaceful, and the wine and beauties are the company. It is really a pleasure to miss Shu. However, wherever the Khitan horsemen came, they killed my men, plundered my property, and captured my 'women'. The blood and deep hatred seen along the way , Blowing the horn, Liu Zheng, have you forgotten?"

Du Chuijiao and Liu Zheng said loudly together: "I haven't forgotten." His two sons are both in Xia Kingdom, even though he answered like this, there was not much emotion in his tone.The leaders of the Liaodong Han Army were terrified, and many of them had expressions of grief.Xue Congxiao from Hutu village in Xianping, whose whole family was killed by Khitan people, clenched his fists even more at this moment, gritted his teeth and said: "I haven't forgotten, I dare not forget." His tiger eyes are already red.

After these three questions, the atmosphere was completely different from before. Many Wanyan women could understand Chinese, and recalling the oppression of the Jurchen tribe by the Liao Kingdom in the past, they also showed the same hatred and hatred.Zhao Xingde nodded, and said in a deep voice: "I have been away from the village for more than 40 days, if we still can't decide on a leader tomorrow, let's go back. Although this place is good, it's not the place we should stay."

The generals of the Han army in the tent had complex expressions, Zhao Xingde thought to himself, this is the end of the story, if they are still greedy for the benefits of the Jin Kingdom, there is nothing they can do.He was feeling a little sad, but Xu Detai said loudly: "What General Zhao said is that we all bear the hatred of the country and the family, how can it be such a waste of time, if we can't decide on the leader tomorrow, I will go back too."

I don't know if there was an arrangement earlier, but several other Han army leaders also yelled: "Exactly, it's not an option to procrastinate like this!" "I don't know what the village has become." It will be troublesome for people to take advantage of the opportunity to attack the cottage!" Shen Xingzhuang of Liang Shuizhai said even louder: "My co-leader of the Liaodong Han Army is Miss Han, and I have elected the leader of the fart." Several people echoed: "That's right, Han Da Miss is our leader." A young man muttered in a low voice: "Eldest lady is a woman anyway, this Han family has no descendants, so what kind of co-leader is she?" He stared and scolded: "The ungrateful thing, we have been favored by the Han family for generations, so what's the matter with the eldest lady, if you recruit a son-in-law in the future, won't the Han family have a descendant?" The young man didn't respond When he came over, he was reprimanded again by the leader who brought him over.

At some point, Han Ningshuang came to the tent, and Xu Detai immediately shouted loudly: "We only wish to regard the eldest lady as the leader." He shouted several times in a row, and more and more people agreed.Mr. Han Da, who had been standing outside the tent, couldn't hold back anymore, he lifted the tent door, strode in, and said loudly: "There are still seven or eight brothers from the village who have not arrived yet, and the matter of the lord has not yet arrived." To be discussed."

Lu Kui glanced at him, and asked sharply: "Han Kuang, this Patriarch of the Han family has always been the leader of our Liaodong Han army. What is your intention in arguing for another leader?" His voice was quite loud, and this roar After coming out, several Han army leaders realized that Mr. Han Da's original name was Han Kuang.

Mr. Han Da's eyes turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "I said a long time ago that if you don't occupy the position of the leader of the alliance, what kind of intentions can you have?" He stood in the middle of the field and said, "Liaodong is the time to use force. On the same terms as us fighters, Han insisted on electing a lord to dispatch troops on his behalf to fight in battle, so as to save the lady the pain of fatigue."

Xu Detai said in a deep voice: "After all, I still have to take off my pants and fart, and keep saying that I am thinking of the eldest lady. Have you ever asked the eldest lady what she thinks?" When Mr. Han Da heard him mention Han Ningshuang, his face changed. He turned his head to look, but seeing Han Ningshuang smiled slightly, Mr. Han Da said in his heart that he was not good. These days, although he is the boss who summoned everyone, he has been avoiding Han Ningshuang and trying to avoid the Han army. Elect the leader in advance.Right now, this opportunity was given to Han Ningshuang by herself.

Many Han army leaders all looked towards her. Han Ningshuang held her breath. Before speaking, she nodded slightly to Zhao Xingde, lightly opened her teeth and said, "I heard what General Zhao said just now, and Ningshuang also Don’t dare to forget the behest of the three generations of ancestors, and together with you, fight to the death with the Khitan people in Liaodong!”

Lu Kui, Xu Detai and others immediately shouted: "We support Miss Han as the leader!" The leaders of the other Han army villages were excited and shouted.Seeing the general situation like this, even a few dozen people with ulterior motives could not stand up and oppose Han Ningshuang personally taking the position of leader.

Mr. Han Da stared at Han Ningshuang to accept the cheers and support of the generals, but only after the generals supported the leader, did he cough dryly and said with a smile: "Since the eldest lady is willing to work hard to restore the great cause, Han It’s not easy for me to say anything.” He paused, and said loudly: “In the current situation in Liaodong, Dajin and Khitan are enemies with each other, and there are also Han’er in my Han army, and Bohai people are scattered everywhere. You also read today. Arrived, the Kingdom of Jin has won many battles against the Liao Kingdom, and the power of the country is rising like the sun. Your Majesty is magnanimous to know people, and the soldiers of the Jurchen tribe are brave and brave. Only His Majesty's order is obeyed, and the tribes from far and near are also loyal.,In my opinion, Han'er is alone and alone, if he wants to fight against the Khitan people, he must get strong support from outside, this strong support is far away in the sky, close at hand, it is the Kingdom of Jin!"

Since all the generals of the Han army came to the Yellow Dragon Mansion for the alliance, they were mentally prepared for the alliance with the Kingdom of Jin. Hearing what Mr. Han Da said, no one objected for a while, and some even exchanged glances with each other. The voice echoed: "Mr. Han Da is right!" Can't say it.

Mr. Han Da glanced at Zhao Xingde, and said loudly: "The Southern Dynasty is cowardly, and it is difficult for the Liao Kingdom to cross the river. To establish a foothold in Liaodong, the only way is to form an alliance with the Jin Kingdom!" Accompanied by his words, Wanyan Zongbi walked over from the side, and said with a slight smile: "Father and Emperor have said before, as long as the Hanzhai and our Dajin form an alliance, they can be compiled into a Han people. Ke, you are given official positions, just like the leader of my Jurchen Meng'an Muke."

Such conditions have moved many generals of the Han army. There are also Jiedu envoys and generals conferred by the ancestors of the Han family in each village of the Han army. It is also a real temptation.Wanyan Zongbi glanced at Han Ningshuang, secretly proud of himself, but heard someone beside him say: "Your Highness is right, the Han army and Jurchen form an alliance to fight against Khitan together, but the conditions of this alliance may need to be discussed slowly."

It was the envoy of the Kingdom of Xia who disrupted the situation midway, and Wanyan Zongbi's heart was on fire, and he couldn't help secretly showing a hint of murderous intent.
