Fisherman's Song Dynasty

Driving out of Bianjing all the way north, Zhao Gou and his entourage can be regarded as the envoys of the Song Dynasty to the Kingdom of Jin, and it is a serious diplomatic activity, but everyone knows in their hearts that this is just a little face for Zhao Ji. It's a negotiation, but people have to stay there as hostages.

Zhao Gou's interest was not very high, and he hardly got out of the car along the way. The convoy was not fast, but it didn't stop much. He just took a rest for a day when he passed by the Daming Mansion. The local officials met King Kang with pilgrimage. The attitude of the few officials towards Wushu is better than that towards Zhao Gou. Now the Jin soldiers are aggressively suppressing the border, and if they fail to keep it together, they will press south and destroy the Daming Mansion. These officials live under pressure all day long. No wonder there are such Attitude.

Wu Shu still had a calm and modest appearance, never trying to win over anyone, and never deliberately indifferent to anyone, Zhao Gou looked at him smiling and became more and more annoyed, and urged him to go on the road without waiting for a few more days.

The convoy continued northward. After passing the Daming Mansion, these prefectures were actually owned by the Song Dynasty in name only, and the real dominance still fell into the hands of Jin Ren. Xu Zizhen drove the car all the way, never talking much, even if someone came to talk to him He never talked to him with perfunctory words, but his eyes never stopped along the way, thinking about the safest and quickest way for Zhao Gou to escape in the future.

Just stop and go like this, the convoy finally arrived at Zhending Mansion after many days.

Zhending Mansion is the capital of West Hebei Road, and it is an important military town in the Song Dynasty. It governs nine counties and has a population of nearly 20. It can be regarded as a big city at the northern end of the Song Dynasty.

Thinking of what he saw when he came all the way, Xu Zizhen felt uncomfortable as if he had eaten a big fly. Now it is the time when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming. It was originally the busy season for farmers, but the vast fields he saw in his eyes Most of them are barren, and even the people of Song Dynasty who died for a long time can be seen on the ridge road.

The convoy did not enter the city, but slowed down outside the south of the city. The accompanying golden soldiers intentionally or unintentionally changed the shape of the formation, and all the protruding ones fell behind the formation. In this way, thousands of golden soldiers escorted Zhao Gou and his party Seeing the situation, Xu Zizhen was very upset, and cursed in a low voice: "Damn it, wait for me!"

Zhao Gou also saw it from the gap in the car curtain, and also snorted dissatisfiedly. Yan Zhao didn't speak, but his face was ugly. nodded.

The south of Zhending City is an open area. After Wanyan Zongwang captured Zhending, he stationed his camp here. Looking from Xu Zizhen's perspective, he could see a stretch of tents in the distance, and occasionally there were a few neighing of war horses. But no other noises can be heard, which shows the strict military discipline of the Jin soldiers. Looking back at the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty I have seen, except for the Lanzhou soldiers and the Deshun army of Xiaozhong Xianggong, most of the others are undisciplined soldiers. It's no wonder that the more you fight the less, you always lose.

Xu Zizhen sighed with emotion as he walked, and at the same time silently recorded the route in and out of the barracks. If he wanted to escape from Zhending, the barracks was an impenetrable hurdle, but now he looked at the Jinren barracks and couldn't help but feel a little headache. It seemed that he really wanted to run away. It will definitely take a lot of trouble.

Wanyan Zongwang had already received the message, and arranged the scene to welcome the envoy of Song Dynasty early. From the entrance of the camp all the way to the inside, both sides of the camp road were full of well-groomed golden soldiers, with spears like forests and swords like rainbows. With a dazzling cold light, Xu Zizhen could understand at a glance that the Jinren planned to give Zhao Gou a blow to rein in his courage.

Not far away, there is a group of golden men waiting there in the middle of the camp road. The first golden general is full of armor and majestic, and he can't see clearly from a distance, but judging from his position, he should be the one who captured the Zhending mansion. Marshal Wanyan Zongwang of the Jin Kingdom right.

The motorcade stopped, and Zhao Gou got off the shaft first. Xu Zizhen bowed and helped him get off the car, and said in a low voice, "Master Qi, be careful, there are still people to scare you."

Zhao Gou nodded calmly, followed by Zhang Bangchang's car. He and Zhao Gou are the two main persons in charge of the peace talks. He just got out of the car, and Wanyan Zongwang in the distance suddenly waved his hand. The lieutenant-general raised a flag in his hand and waved it a few times, when he suddenly heard the sound of war drums sounding like waves rolling around him.

"Hoohoho!"

Suddenly there were bursts of loud roars from all directions, resounding through the sky, and then the ground seemed to tremble slightly. The next moment, teams of cavalry suddenly appeared on every main road of the barracks. With the horse's belly sandwiched, the upper body leaned down slightly, and the bright long knife circled and danced in his hand, galloping towards Zhao Gou and other envoys of the Song Dynasty.

The main roads in the camp lead in all directions, and in a short while, countless cavalry appeared. Xu Zizhen had seen this kind of battle before, and he could tell at a glance that this was a cavalry team of ten thousand people. Wanyan Zongwang obviously planned to kill Zhao Gou and the others. Threats are not polite at all, but he knows that these cavalry will not really charge over, and he can't help but feel a little trembling in his heart. Today's golden soldiers are in the limelight, so they should not be underestimated.

Zhao Gou was reminded by Xu Zizhen in advance, so he finally didn't show any timidity, but Zhang Bangchang is a civil servant, he has never seen such a battle, he just stepped off the shaft and didn't stand firmly, he was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground , Xu Zizhen was next to him, he quickly supported him with his eyes, and said in a low voice: "The spring mud is wet and slippery, Mr. Xiang, be careful."

Zhang Bangchang finally didn't make a fool of himself in front of the golden man, he took a deep breath to stabilize his mind, nodded to Xu Zizhen, walked over to Zhao Gou and stood still.

When the cavalry rushed to both sides of the main road, they stopped, and stood behind the infantry on the left and right, with their long knives sheathed, but the murderous aura could not be concealed no matter what.

The group of golden generals who were waiting in the distance finally came over, and the leading general laughed from a distance: "His Royal Highness Kang Wang is here, Zong Wang is disappointed and welcomes you, and I hope you will forgive me!"

Sure enough, it was Wanyan Zongwang, Xu Zizhen looked up slightly, and saw that he was only in his early thirties, with a calm and prestige in his brows, his appearance was vaguely similar to Wushu, only a little more stable and rough.

Zhao Gou snorted coldly: "Didn't General Wanyan come to welcome the orphan with a sharp knife and angry horse? What's the crime?"

Wanyan Zongwang acted as if he didn't hear the anger in Zhao Gou's words, he laughed and said: "My Nuzhen Erlang has always admired the humanities of China, and today His Royal Highness Kang Wang came to my camp, so I just let it go. Not Zongwang's original intention."

Zhao Gou said indifferently: "It's only [-] cavalrymen, and it still won't surprise me. General Wanyan doesn't need to worry about it."

Wanyan Zongwang glanced at Zhao Gou, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. Obviously, Zhao Gou's calmness and composure exceeded his expectations.
