A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 873 The Author of The Story of Stone

When Yelu Hongji returned, the smell of blood on his body had not been washed away, so he summoned everyone to discuss matters.

"All those rebellious ones were killed, the men in the family were made slaves, and the women were sent to the military camp."

"yes."

During this trip, Yelu Hongji wiped out the largest group of rebels and captured many people.

It's nothing for a man to be a slave. If a woman is sent to a military camp, she probably won't come out alive.

Yelu Hongji felt a little tired and was about to ask people to disperse when someone came out to report: "Your Majesty, in February, the prince of the Song Dynasty and Shen An arrived in Xiongzhou..."

"Huh?" Yelu Hongji's eyes were filled with excitement, "This is an opportunity. Have the Nanjing Road officials taken action?"

It was deathly silent below, with only this official continuing to report, "Yes, officials from Nanjing Road took action and sent more than 10,000 people into the territory of the Song Dynasty, preparing to intercept Shen An and capture the prince of the Song Dynasty..."

"Extremely appropriate!" Yelu Hongji nodded slightly, feeling that the officials of Nanjing Road were pretty good, at least they were still calm in handling such important matters.

If Shen An kills him, he will kill him, but Zhao Xu is different. If he kills him, Zhao Shu will go crazy and turn his country to fight.

The Liao Dynasty is not afraid of the overthrow of the country, but it is worried that the Xixia people are watching and taking advantage. What he was most worried about were the tribes on the grassland.

Daliao gradually became similar to the Central Plains, using cities to demonstrate its civilization.

But the tribes on the grassland are still barbaric and can still produce powerful warriors.

Those tribes seemed to bow their heads and obey Daliao's rule, but once Daliao became weak, they would not hesitate to raise their swords, draw their long bows, and stab Daliao from behind with rebellion.

Therefore, Daliao must be vigilant.

As for the Song people...

Yelu Hongji's eyes were full of anger.

The defeat in the last battle of Fuzhou made him feel curious for the first time, and then he wanted to get new gunpowder, and then use gunpowder to restrain the Song people.

But the Song people's defenses were too tight, and they couldn't invade the workshop by any means.

"Your Majesty, that Shen An was cunning. He attacked late at night and avoided our army's scouts. Then he found the camp and launched a night attack..."

"Um?"

Yelu Hongji raised his head, a cold look flashed in his eyes: "Why? Why couldn't the scouts discover the Song army when they were camping? They must be lazy, idiots! They were lazy and sent fewer scouts in the territory of the Song Dynasty. This is asking for death!"

A general came out and said, "What your Majesty said is true. Now that the world is at peace, military generals rarely have experience in fighting. But Shen An is different. He has fought in the north and south, and has never been defeated. Such a person, even the Emperor of Song Dynasty He is said to be a famous general, how can we be lazy? How can we make omissions?"

These words were deeply recognized by Yelu Hongji. He nodded slightly, and the general's face turned red with joy.

Everyone was jealous, and someone said: "Your Majesty, during the night attack, our army quickly gathered to counterattack without much loss. Then our army launched an attack, and the Song people..."

"But gunpowder was used?" Yelu Hongji sighed: "It is a headache, but it can only be used in small groups of fighting. When the army is boundless, these are just dust and will be destroyed by the Liao army." Horse hooves in the mud.”

"Your Majesty is wise, but the Song people did not use gunpowder this time. They used swords and axes..."

"The sword and axe-hand..." Yelu Hongji's eyes narrowed, remembering the things his fathers said, those... the past fights with the Song Dynasty decades ago.

At that time, the Song Dynasty did not have many cavalry, and the main reliance on infantry was infantry.

The infantry could not stop Daliao's iron hoofs. They had this confidence, but this confidence turned into howls in front of those swords and axes.

"Those Song soldiers wore thick armor, and with every swing of their swords and axes, their men and horses were shattered...incomparable..."

The war between the two sides stopped for decades, and the tragedies of the past were gradually forgotten.

"Our army fought hard and was about to defeat the Song army, but Shen An launched a counterattack with a thousand cavalry..."

"Counterattack? A thousand people?" Yelu Hongji wanted to kill people. "A thousand people defeated us? Do you think the Daliao cavalry are like sheep? They will run away when they encounter tigers and wolves."

"wrong!"

Yelu Hongji stood up. He was furious at being defeated again by Shen An. He waved his right hand and shouted: "The warriors of Daliao are not afraid of tigers and wolves. Tigers and wolves should be afraid of them!"

The minister smiled bitterly and said, "But Shen An used a gunpowder jar to clear the way... and blew up our army."

"The war horses were afraid of the explosion. The Song army did not give our army a chance to form a unit. Then Shen An was like a devil. He seized the only opportunity for our army to form a unit and led his army to charge in... Our army... was defeated."

Yelu Hongji stood there, his expression gradually becoming cold.

Everyone stood with their hands tied, feeling that the temperature in the tent was gradually dropping.

A horse team galloped past outside the tent, and the sound of horse hooves gradually faded away. Yelu Hongji raised his head slightly, "Gunpowder...is there any way?"

"I have sent many people to Bianliang, but no good news has been received so far."

Yelu Hongji sighed: "The Song people are no match for Daliao, but they have gunpowder, disgusting gunpowder! Zhao Shu must be very proud to get this treasure. But I don't like this person, and I prefer to see him cry. , Weak... Is it possible for you to do it?"

"I obey your Majesty's orders."

The ministers saluted, and Yelu Hongji nodded slightly, "By the way... let me go to Bianliang to look for the author of the so-called Stone Records... and bring him back. Remember, be polite."

"yes."

What does it mean?

The author of The Story of the Stone?

The officials were confused. After they went out, someone who had read the book introduced the situation.

"It's very beautiful. I can't help but look at it. It's just that the pork with salted vegetables... That person is probably a woman. She is too lazy and often breaks... It makes people want to kill..."

These words started a discussion in Liao about looking for salted vegetables and meat, and the Stone Story also took the opportunity to become popular and became the first red book in Liao. For a time, those old scholars couldn't help but feel sad and scolded those people who didn't know how to read but liked a crooked novel...

"Why do officials write like that?"

Yang Zhuoxue fed her child, then picked up the manuscript of The Story of the Stone and read it, feeling very depressed.

"This Second Sister You is so gentle, Sister Feng is so fierce..."

"It's not shrewdness, it's cruelty. It actually drove the second sister to death."

"The officials are really cruel."

"..."

Aunt Chen hugged the well-fed and drunk Uncle Taro, and smiled when she heard this and said, "What is it, Second Sister You?"

Yang Zhuoxue explained the content roughly, and Aunt Chen changed her color instantly and said disdainfully: "Jia Lian and Sister Feng are husband and wife, and they have a concubine, Ping'er. But this second sister You has no words of matchmaking, and no orders from her parents to marry her." Jia Lian hooked up, madam, is this fair to Sister Feng?"

Yang Zhuoxue was dumbfounded, "Yes! They are husband and wife, but Second Sister You is an outsider who intervenes..."

She thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "I don't want to. But the officials are really powerful. If they could write such novels, in the Qin and Han Dynasties, they would probably be famous all over the world."

Aunt Chen shook the taro, raised her head and said with a smile: "Langjun has long been famous all over the world. Su Langjun's father has come to the house to say thank you, which shows how capable our husband is. When my family came to Shen's house, I remember The husband and the bride had just arrived in Bianliang not long ago, but I could tell at a glance that the husband would have a great future, and now it is true!"

Yang Zhuoxue picked up the needle and thread, and remembered Shen An's warning that whenever she did something during confinement, everything in the house would be taken away so that she could not even read novels.

Yang Zhuoxue felt filled with happiness when she thought that her husband had actually written twice in a row even though she had stopped reading for a long time because of her confinement period.

She leaned over and looked at Taro, and said softly: "Taro, be good, study hard with your father from now on, and learn all your father's skills, okay?"

Uncle Taro struggled in his swaddling clothes, making sounds...

In the front yard, Su Xun said with a smile: "Zizhan is reckless and has been a bit careless since he was a child. If it weren't for you this time, he would definitely cause a big disaster."

Shen An smiled and said, "You're welcome. Brother Zizhan is a generous man and has been of great help to me."

"You are too humble." Su Xun's eyes were filled with envy.

Some people say that the child is their own, but facing Shen An, Su Xun feels that this is wrong.

What will happen to a person who has lost the control of his parents as a teenager and still has a younger sister? According to Su Xun's experience, most of these people are mediocre, and their chances of taking the wrong path are higher than ordinary people.

But not only did Shen An not take the wrong path, the days were getting better and better, and the road became wider and wider as he walked.

Who wouldn’t envy such a son?

Shen Bian is so lucky!

"Now my colleagues at Yushitai have greatly changed their view of Zizhan. They even drank together last night, which shows that they really accept him. I feel so happy! I'm really happy, Anbei, thank you very much."

Su Xun stood up and held his hands, but Shen An quickly avoided it. UU reading www.uukanshu.net

Su Shi has established a firm foothold in Yushitai, which is great news.

Bao Zheng went home to recuperate. It was said that he had a bad temper for the first two days, and the servants in the mansion were scolded and miserable.

But recently, he has stopped again. He travels around the world with a bag and ribbon every day. Today, it is said that he went to have a spring outing outside the city.

Shen An was moved by the thought of outing in spring.

"what's the weather like?"

He stood in the yard, looked at the sky, and felt the wind.

Zhuang Laoshi said with an expert look on his face, "Don't worry, Mr. Lang, in today's weather, you can go out without wearing any clothes."

"Pooh!"

Mrs. Chen happened to come over. When she heard this, she sighed at Zhuang Laoshi, and then reported: "Mr. Lang, the little lady said she wants to go out."

Shen An was thinking about going to see the navy's situation, so he went to the backyard.

"I'll go back when I'm ready."

Yang Zhuoxue naturally wanted to go, but it was still a month away, so she could only watch.

“It’s going to be hot by then, right?”

"It's okay. When the time comes, my husband will accompany you to the sun."

Shen An has never been afraid of the sun. He once had a record of walking for half a day in the bright sun.

It was a hot summer!

"Guoguo, let's go."

"Coming!"

Traveling is very troublesome for Guoguo. She has too many pets and needs to weigh who to take out.

Today it was Lumao's turn. Guoguo ran over with it. Zhao Wuwu was panting behind him, and it was obvious that he couldn't outrun Guoguo.

Shen An said earnestly: "You need to exercise more!"

Have you heard of anyone whose servants couldn't outrun their master's children?

Zhao Wuwu was ashamed and angry, so he nodded in agreement.

Shen An was happy, thinking that Guoguo had been training with a certain person for several years. For a newbie like you, just take your time.

Goodnight everybody!
