A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Five people.

This is a student who has returned from the academy.

"There were twelve of us when we set out."

The leader Zheng Qin looked at Bianliang City in the distance and said with tears: "After narrow escape, we are finally back."

The five of them were all carrying burdens, and someone murmured: "It's okay, but there is no trace of Ma Long's body."

Zheng Qin turned around and said, "Let's go to the city!"

Behind the five people were nine sergeants. They looked at the students indifferently, all carrying baggage.

The baggage is full of bones.

The bones of a comrade.

When they saw the city gate, they also saw the group of people outside the city.

A dark group of people.

The leaders are Shen An, Wang Yu...

Mangshan Academy suspended classes today, and everyone came outside the city to greet these meritorious officials and those classmates who died in Jiaozhi.

"It's Shan Zhang and the others!"

All the strength turned into weakness at this moment, and the students dismounted and ran away.

Approaching, Zheng Qin knelt on the ground, "Mountain Chief, we are lucky to live up to our command!"

"good!"

Shen An went over to help him up and then took off the baggage.

When I opened the bag, what I didn't expect were bones.

"They said it would be ashes, but after we burned it for a long time, it was still bones."

Zheng Qin said with tears: "There were twelve people on this trip, four died at the hands of the Cochin people, one was bitten to death by a poisonous snake, and one was poisoned by drinking water. All of them collected their bones, but Ma Long fell off the cliff and no bones were left. ."

"good!"

Shen An walked towards the sergeants.

"I've met the Duke!"

The sergeants looked in good spirits.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Shen An said seriously: "If you make great achievements during this trip, whether you are a survivor or a martyr, you will be rewarded heavily."

Martyrdom for the country?

The eyes of several sergeants lit up.

There are many kinds of death, and martyrdom for one's country is the highest one.

As long as it is confirmed that the person died for the country, the pension will be favorable, and the people in the hometown will look high on the family members of the person who died for the country and take care of them.

"He must have died for his country!"

Shen An said categorically: "Whoever says otherwise, I will kill him!"

Zheng Qin came over and asked, "Shan Chief, why are we like this?"

"For Cochin."

Shen An vowed not to let these people die in vain.

"Want to play Cochin?" Everyone's eyes lit up.

Without fighting against Cochin, those brothers would have died in vain.

"I will definitely fight!"

Shen An went all the way to the Privy Council.

"Fight! Definitely fight!" Fu Bi expressed his support for cleaning up Jiaozhi.

Then Shen An went to the Political Affairs Hall.

"A fight must be fought."

The prime ministers also hoped to eliminate the place that was dedicated to stabbing the Song Dynasty in the back.

He then entered the palace.

"They're back?"

Zhao Shu asked happily: "Are those prescriptions feasible?"

The emperor's first concern is never the casualties, but the results.

"no problem."

During a simple question and answer, those lives disappeared into the mountains and forests of Jiaozhi.

"Cochin!"

The emperor's eyes became more stern, and Shen An seemed to see the flames of war raging.

There must be an end to the southwest. When the Song Dynasty was pouring all its strength into the north, it could not worry about being stabbed in the back, as that would cost its life.

"When will Li Rizun be unable to bear it anymore?"

Zhao Shu asked calmly, and the murderous intention was hidden behind that calmness.

"I feel that from the moment the attack on Champa began, Li Rizun was like an ant on a hot fire. He knew that he was being attacked from both sides, so he had to take action, otherwise the next time... the Song navy would land with a large army."

"The army?" Zhao Shu's eyes suddenly became sharp, "Where did the army come from?"

"The Privy Council conducted a deduction." The emperor was angry, but Shen An said calmly: "If the Song Dynasty ships 20,000 elite troops and uses the maneuverability of the warships to encroach from the surrounding areas, Jiaozhi will be there in just one month. collapse."

It's not just a matter of doing it in private. Zhao Shu's face brightened a little and he asked, "Were you there at the time?"

"Yes, I am here." Shen An said: "I have always thought that dealing with Jiaozhi cannot be done only on land, but must be done by both land and water."

Zhao Shu pondered for a long time and said: "This trip has a huge naval force..."

Shen An knew the elegant meaning of the song after hearing it, and held back his ecstasy and said: "The officials, the navy has to go to Goryeo first. Those soldiers will catch up in time, and then we will gather a group of large ships to go to sea to accompany them."

The navy met with fleets filled with troops at Fuzhou or Guangnan West Road, and then sent troops to the coast of Jiaozhi.

The army on land attacked and was intercepted by Jiaozhi, but the navy immediately landed on the shore and began to attack cities and seize territory everywhere.

Under the attack of firearms, can those short earth cities in Jiaozhi stop it?

They can't stop it!

Zhao Shu said calmly: "Very good!"

Now we are waiting for news from Cochin.

Shen An left the palace and went to the academy.

The families of those seven people came.

In front of a pile of corpses was a group of wailing family members.

On the playground, students lined up in a solemn atmosphere.

The Song Dynasty wanted to expand outward, and this was the price.

Shen An stood there, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Do you regret it?"

Wang Yu came over.

Shen An shook his head, "Last time when the students in the academy played with gunpowder, someone's eyes were blown out. There was a Taoist priest in Izumo Temple who slipped when the molten steel was coming out of the furnace... These are all the price."

"Prince!"

An old man came over, and Shen An quickly greeted him and supported him.

The old man raised his head and said with tears: "They said that Erlang went to Jiaozhi to fight in Jiaozhi in the future?"

"yes."

"Then Cochin people are very bad?"

"yes."

Since the Song Dynasty, Jiaozhi has been harassing the Central Plains.

The enemies of the Central Plains are always in the north, so the military presence in the southwest is not strong enough. The Jiaozhi people felt that they had an opportunity to take advantage of them, and they have been harassing them since the Song Dynasty.

This is a ground rat that bites people.

The old man wiped away his tears and said, "Before Erlang set off, he said that the mountain chief said that some things must be done by someone. If you don't do it and I won't do it, nothing will be accomplished in the end. Then he went. Now that he has gone, the county prince..."

Shen An looked down at him, "You tell me, listen."

He hoped it was money. No matter how much money the old man asked for, he would agree.

The old man held his hand tightly and said seriously: "Can we destroy Jiaozhi?"

Shen An's eyes felt hot instantly.

The old man's son, who was also the father of the student who died for his country, came over and supported his other hand, "Dad, this is a big deal, not something we can talk about."

Historically, national affairs have nothing to do with ordinary people. Meat-eaters talk about it in temples, and people don't even have the right to know.

So the old man's son was a little panicked.

But the old man struggled to break away from his hand and said breathlessly to Shen An: "My lord, please be reasonable. Jiaozhi has always been the one who comes to the door, but why can't the Song Dynasty retaliate against them?"

A professor on the side couldn't help but said: "The navy has been there several times."

Shen An glanced at the professor and said, "Shut up!"

"But the navy is the navy!" The old man blushed and said, "The navy doesn't count, it doesn't count!"

He was a little crazy, and Shen An whispered: "Yes, the navy doesn't count, it doesn't count."

The old man gasped and suddenly choked up: "Erlang! What a good boy..."

"He didn't forget about his family even when he was eating well in the academy. He secretly hid the meat. The meat was so smelly that he couldn't bear to eat it... What a good boy!"

The old man's body fell suddenly, and Shen An quickly pulled him back.

As his body fell, he raised his head, his face full of pleading.

"Erlang... Erlang was killed by the Cochin people. Lord, please... Lord, please..."

"What do you want?"

It is difficult to pull an old man with a fallen body. The heaviness is different from ordinary objects. It is very heavy, as if most of his life is inside.

"You say."

Shen An lowered his head, sweat was already visible on his face.

The old man gasped: "Erlang's soul is in Jiaozhi... I know that he is in Jiaozhi. Bring it back, Duke, please, bring Erlang's soul... back."

"Daddy!"

The middle-aged man held him back while the old man kept staring at Shen An.

Shen An nodded without hesitation, "Okay."

There was more joy in the old man's eyes, but then they dimmed.

"Daddy!"

The middle-aged man panicked, and everyone rushed forward. Someone went to invite a doctor.

"went."

In fact, before the doctor arrived, everyone had already confirmed that the old man had left.

The middle-aged man was howling, and someone nearby shouted: "Go home quickly, while your soul is still there, go home quickly!"

"yes."

The middle-aged man cried while carrying his father on his back. Shen An called for a carriage, but he just shook his head, "He brought someone into this world, and someone sent him away."

Chinese people want to die at home, so that their souls will never leave and will cling to tablets, tombstones, graves... everything. Then they will watch their descendants multiply and reproduce, UU Reading www. uukanshu.net It's like being alive.

So once you die in a foreign land, it is a sad thing, because your soul is gone and you cannot go home.

Before burial, filial sons and grandsons need to kneel on top of the coffin and shout three times. This is called summoning the soul.

The soul is back!

When the news reached the palace, Zhao Shu remained silent.

Gao Taotao asked: "Guan family, does Jiaozhi really come here often to burn, kill and loot?"

"Yes." Zhao Shu said with a sneer: "In the past, when the Song Dynasty devoted all its efforts to the north, Jiaozhi was frequently harassed and the border area was often looted. Later, the traitor Li Bai even said that Li Rizun wanted to annex the Guangnan West Road of the Song Dynasty. "

"I'm afraid he's not daydreaming!"

Gao Taotao gritted his teeth and said: "This kind of person should be captured and brought to Bianliang to humiliate him!"

This is the tradition of our ancestors. The complicated and mighty prisoner presentation ceremony is followed by a banquet. The captured enemy leaders dance for fun at the banquet. They must dance hard, otherwise they may be said to have resentment and be chopped into pieces. .

Chen Zhongheng came in, "The officials and the Privy Council heard about this, and Fu Lian said it was a shame."

"Guan family, Shen An wants to see you."

Zhao Shu sighed: "Shen An is probably murderous right now. If I don't allow it, he will lead the Mangshan Army to the southwest. Let him come."

Shen An came later.

"You want to go to the southwest?"

"yes."

Zhao Shu asked: "Why are you so impatient?"

"The new defeat of Xixia will make the Liao people panic. In the following days, the conflicts between the Song Dynasty and the Liao people will gradually increase. The time to resolve Jiaozhi is now. If you miss it, you will have to be attacked on both sides."

Shen An analyzed the situation on the way and felt that now was the time.

Zhao Shu nodded, "That's it...just get ready."
