A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

The civilian husbands have been protected in the middle. Today they witnessed a big battle and only felt frightened.

"Look, County Duke Shen is here."

Shen An walked over with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Are you afraid today?"

"Not afraid...not afraid."

The answers of the people were somewhat false, and Shen An knew it well. He smiled and said, "The Liao people have been suppressing the Central Plains for a hundred years. Who is not afraid?"

"I'm afraid of you too!"

Han Qi noticed Shen An speaking here and came over with a group of officials and generals.

"What's there to say to these people?"

"Yes! If you have this free time, why not eat and sleep quickly? You will have to get up at night to prepare for the Liao army's night attack!"

Shen An has been unwilling to reveal what the final preparations were, making these people anxious.

Han Qi watched coldly from the side, thinking that Shen An did it on purpose.

"...The Liao army was so powerful in the past! At that time, I came to Bianliang from Xiongzhou with my sister on my back. All I saw along the way was fear. From the common people to the court, everyone was afraid of the Liao people."

"He is exposing his shortcomings!" An official said with a bitter smile: "Even the late emperor and current officials are involved."

This guy is really... so ungrateful!

If these words spread to Bianliang, how many people will hate Shen An because of it?

Will the officials be dissatisfied too?

For a moment, people's hearts moved slightly.

Han Qi stood there, his body trembling with fat, and said: "What I hate most is snitching. Even big things can be as big as conspiracy cases. Once I meet such people, I won't throw them into the trap." If I work as a jailer on Salman Island, then my job as prime minister will be in vain."

Damn it!

Lao Han's threat is too real. The key is that he is determined to retaliate. If he says he wants to kill you, he must kill you.

Those hearts fell silent again.

"But we all saw it in today's battle. The Liao army was very fierce, but was the Song army fierce?"

Someone shouted: "Mr. Shen, the swordsman and axe-hand are so fierce today. The shouting makes people's hearts tremble."

"Yes! When I heard them shouting "No advance, no retreat," the villain felt hot all over and wanted to rush forward."

Shen An smiled and said: "Yes! The sword and ax hands of the Song Dynasty are very fierce, but are the crossbowmen fierce?"

"The crossbow arrows look like dark clouds, fierce!"

"Then are you still afraid of waiting?" Shen An asked: "Why are you afraid?"

yes!

Why are you still afraid?

The peasants thought about it carefully and then burst into laughter.

"Yes! Why are you afraid of them?"

"dinner time!"

Someone was shouting in the distance, and the voice sounded cheerful.

"go for meal!"

The peasants went to eat in twos and threes, and the scene gradually became deserted.

"What do you want them to do?"

Shen An turned around, looked at Han Qi and said: "I want them to know... The Song Dynasty is different now. Then when they go back, they will tell more people and let the world know that the Song Dynasty is different and we don't have to be afraid. Any opponent."

"Does the Song Dynasty need self-confidence?" Han Qi said with great interest: "Yes! In the past, the Song Dynasty could not see self-confidence, but now... we above the court all know that the Song Dynasty is confident, but the people are very Little is known.”

"So someone needs to tell them."

Shen An nodded with a smile.

Han Qi looked at the setting sun and said, "Tonight will be full of blood."

"yes."

Dinner was very simple, with pickles rolled in flatbread, and the only thing hot was soup.

The soup is made from bacon and dried vegetables. It tastes a little salty, but it's better than nothing.

Shen An likes to eat cakes with big mouthfuls, chew the pickles loudly, and then swallow them in big mouthfuls. This is very enjoyable.

Han Qi ate five cakes in one go, which made Shen An's eyelids jump.

This cake is as thick as a palm and as big as a person's face. I ate five of them in a row...

Shen An can eat so much, but Han Qi is an old man!

"Eat, eat more, so you can kill the enemy better at night!"

Han Qi ate five pieces of cake and drank a large bowl of soup. He burped and said, "I almost didn't understand. It would be nice if I had another bowl of yokan."

This guy’s appetite is really enviable!

As night falls, Shen An wraps himself in a windbreaker and takes a nap next to his horse.

Han Qi's treatment was better and he had a tent.

The night was getting darker, and someone walked over quietly and whispered: "Mr. Lang..."

Shen An raised his head, his eyes suddenly became clear, and he said, "Let's go."

"yes."

The person coming is Huang Chun.

This is one of Shen An's reliances.

The Mangshan Army quietly gathered and moved out under the leadership of Huang Chun.

Shen An stood outside, waiting quietly.

"What are they going to do?"

Han Qi appeared silently behind Shen An. With his huge size, he didn't know how he managed to remain silent.

"Detect the enemy."

Shen An did not look back, "The enemy might launch a surprise attack in the early morning, but I don't know the exact time, and that treasure is useless."

Han Qi nodded and said, "I want to kill the enemy."

In the political hall, Zeng Gongliang said that he had killed enemies, Bao Zheng had also killed them, and Ouyang Xiu had forgotten it. If he killed enemies with that look in his eyes, he might kill his own people.

I, Han Qi, also have to kill the enemy, and I have to kill more, otherwise how can I have the dignity to be the prime minister?

Shen An smiled and said: "You should sit in charge of the central army and let me do the killing of the enemy."

"I know you all dislike me for being fat. Yesterday I tried the best war horse here, and the result... the horse even cried."

Han Qi turned away, a faint sadness filling the air.

Are the war horses crying?

Shen An imagined that scene and couldn't help but snicker.

"But I still want to kill the enemy. If I don't kill the enemy, I will die in peace!"

Shen An was silent.

"That year...I defeated the Northwest."

"That year... I went back cowardly."

"I seem to be domineering these years, and I seem to have forgotten the past, but every time I dream at night, I mostly dream about those..."

"I led my defeated army back. The soldiers who died in the battle turned into wandering ghosts, their bodies covered in blood and their armors in tatters... They blocked my way...crying and asking me why I was defeated..."

Han Qi's voice was low, and Shen An slowly sat down and just listened with his legs crossed.

"I don't want to take these into my grave, and I don't want future generations to call me a fugitive prime minister..."

Shen An lowered his head slightly and gradually became carefree.

People often need to be alone and quiet. Don't make any noise. If you want to drink tea, drink tea. If you don't want to drink tea, just sit like this. It's best to keep the noise around you quiet.

Gradually you will fall into an ethereal state, and then all kinds of negative energy will emerge and be washed away one by one.

There is no Bodhi tree, and the mirror is not a stand, but if you wipe it regularly, you will feel much more relaxed.

Tens of thousands of people were taking a rest, and all the small sounds together were loud.

The insects were frightened and burrowed into the soil. The breeze blew and it was a little cold.

I don't know how long it took, but Shen An heard someone running towards him.

He looked up and opened his eyes.

"Silence!"

Han Qi was sitting in the back and taking a nap. When he woke up and saw Shen An getting up to greet him, he ordered the vigilant sergeant to keep silent.

He stood there and saw Yan Baoyu running quickly.

"The enemy forces have begun!"

Shen An turned around, took a deep breath, and nodded to Han Qi.

"Prepare!"

Han Qi held the handle of the knife and turned around.

Huang Chun rushed back and said hurriedly: "Lang Jun, the entire enemy army is dispatched."

Shen An nodded and said, "Get our baby out."

"What baby?"

The generals all came out.

"That is a treasure given to us by His Majesty. We have to return it when we have used it."

The hot air balloon was unloaded, ignited, and then slowly lifted into the sky.

The lookout hand above will write down the findings on paper, put them in a bamboo tube and throw them down.

"Oh my God!"

In the light of the fire, the hot air balloon slowly rose into the sky, and the soldiers on the periphery were stunned.

"What's this"

"He actually ascended to heaven!"

"Such a day..."

"Ascended!"

"..."

Shen An said loudly: "This is given to us by the officials for our use. It is specially used to go up to heaven to check the enemy's situation."

"Ah! Is that the ascended baby?"

"Most likely."

The morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted. Shen An said with a ferocious smile: "Come on, I will make your raid a joke!"

The sound of horse hooves gradually came.

"The Liao army never thought of a sneak attack!"

Han Qi looked solemn. Shen An turned around and saw that he was wearing armor.

Boss, do you really want to go into battle and kill the enemy?

Shen An was worried that he would die here in the battle and it would be difficult to explain when he returned to Bianliang.

And if Lao Han is really going to die in battle, Yelu Hongji will laugh wildly and hold a grand banquet to celebrate.

"Light the torch!"

Torches were lit everywhere, and Shen An led the Mangshan Army to the front.

Amid the shouts of generals everywhere, the array gradually took shape.

Suddenly there was a bright light in the distance, but it was the Liao army who lit the torches they carried.

"assault!"

The Liao general looked at the Song army array that was also shining brightly, and shouted: "Let us defeat the Song army in one battle!"

"Da Liao will win!"

The Liao army left no room and launched an all-out attack from the beginning.

The Song Army's array was silent, but some people were afraid.

"The Liao people are coming."

"They're coming. Are we still afraid of them?"

"It's night time."

"We can also kill enemies at night!"

"Mr. Shen is right in front, don't be afraid, hold on tight."

Shen An stood in front, watching more than twenty black figures running back crazily.

"Accept them!"

The Mangshan Army rushed out, UU reading www. uukanshu.net There are two people, and they run away.

These are all rural soldiers. They have been ambushing in front, but now they ran back for unknown reasons.

"What is this going to do?"

Someone asked in confusion, and soon heard Huang Chun shouting: "Pay attention...pacify the cows and horses...pacify the cows and horses..."

Everyone was puzzled, but Han Qi also followed the instructions: "There will be a lot of noise next, so watch the cows and horses carefully."

The order was passed on, and the cavalrymen quickly stroked their horses and whispered comfort, while the oxcart drivers also did the same thing.

Only the Liao army still charged forward fearlessly.

"about there!"

Huang Chun covered his ears with his hands.

Shen An, however, stared at the oncoming Liao army.

The Liao army rushed through the places where the Song army filled the pits. Someone found sparks on the ground and a pungent smell. Before they had time to react, an explosion occurred.

Boom boom boom boom…

Huge explosions came one after another, flames shot into the sky, and the remains of the men and horses could be seen flying in the air.

The Liao troops rushing into the battle felt deafened, and almost none of the Liao troops close to the more than 20 explosion points were spared.

"Is this... a hole dug?"

General Liao was behind and felt his ears ringing.

He murmured: "Those pits...those pits are fake. They pretended to dig the pits, and then filled them in, but what was filled in the pits was gunpowder..."

The Song Army was shocked by the huge explosion. A civil servant said ecstatically: "The hole dug in the afternoon was to build the plank road openly and secretly to build the warehouse. This time... this time... hahahaha!"

"How clever! The Liao people, no, all thought that Duke Shen was asking people to fill the holes, but now it seems that digging the holes was a way to confuse the Liao people, and the real purpose was to plant gunpowder."

This is so vicious!
