Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Guo Shao likes to watch the scenes of people and horses in armor marching, and he also likes to listen to the sound of coordinated footsteps and metal rubbing, like a symphony. ≯≥

Downstairs of Jinzhou City, a line of heavy infantry continued to enter the city, and the sound of "click" footsteps seemed to be a rhythmic heavy bass. The slow movement of the cavalry lined up at first glance like a brisk jump or a dance. If you look closely, they are walking on four hooves without jumping. The horse's posture is graceful and powerful.

A line of infantry, a line of cavalry, the same scene was repeated downstairs, but Guo Shao stood above and watched for a long time.

He turned his head to Wei Renpu next to him and said, "Does Deputy Envoy Wei find this scene boring?"

Wei Renpu bent over slightly and said calmly, "It's very interesting to see it."

Guo Shao pondered a little, and said: "People always want to have omnipotent power. Unfortunately, no matter how strong a person is, the ability is limited. If thousands of people can do one thing together, the power cannot be underestimated. So. Whenever I see this kind of scene, I am always a little excited."

Wei Renpu thought seriously, and after a pause, he agreed with the truth: "Your Majesty is aware of the situation."

Guo Shao raised his head, his gaze crossed the row of Xu Jun flags that floated high, and he looked out into the unmarginal green field. The Xiaoling River was winding across the vast ground, and he could no longer see farther. Not only the personal strength and running degree are limited, but the field of vision is also very limited.

Gao Huaide lived up to his hopes and captured this important town originally built by the Han Chinese in the Tang Dynasty in half a month, but Guo Shao was not very excited, but felt that his heart was still hanging.

Jinzhou is flat on all sides, looking east to the sea, with abundant water systems and fertile land; the city is the dominant center of this area. If it is generally captured by the court, it must be a remarkable achievement. But Guo Shao mobilized so many people to conquer the Northeast, not for a city.

He was waiting for news from Liao.

This feeling reminded him of the scene where he first emerged: shooting Zhang Yuanhui with an arrow. The timing and angle were very good at that time. Guo Shao was also very sure of his long-term archery practice, but he was very nervous and worried before the moment he released the arrow. Because there are some things that no one can be 100% sure about, when Guo Shao was in Lingzhou, when he killed the Dangxiang person and didn't hide Brother Xi, he was a mistake.

She's also like the little girl who hooked herself up when she was young, she had already started, but she was always cautious, for fear of frightening her and flying away...

People and horses are active all day inside and outside Jinzhou City. The garrison deploys defenses, arranges and discriminates prisoners, and comforts the people. Everything is cumbersome, but Guo Shao ignored them. When he repeatedly pondered and designed the former camp military mansion before, he had already paid out today's hard work in advance.

Until the evening, the army ministers and generals gathered at the temporarily requisitioned Chinese army for dinner. The meals were the same as the generals, even Guo Shao was no exception.

Baking hot oatmeal is very dry and tooth-consuming. There are vegetable leaves in the soup, dried sea fish... sometimes bacon. This soup is very easy, even salt is saved, because dried fish and bacon are very salty.

Guo Shaoruo had nothing to do, and talked with everyone about anecdotes.

At this time, Gao Huaide smiled and said: "Shi Guogong, I will finally hear that there was a time in Hedong where there was an undisciplined army, looting the people and kidnapping the young ladies, and he was seen by Shi Guogong. Shi Guogong ordered the army to rectify the law on the spot, and then he cut down the young ladies. After hearing this story, I never understood why Shi Guogong wanted to kill the innocent people at the same time?"

The chattering and laughter in the room immediately became quieter, and the atmosphere became a bit subtle, and everyone paid close attention to Shi Yan's reaction.

Guo Shao didn't say a word while sitting in the upper position, still chewing on the wheat cakes. The wheat cakes eaten in the army are very coarse, so you must chew more, otherwise it is difficult to swallow. After chewing more, you can taste the unique sweetness of grain.

Guo Shao guessed that Shi Yan must have had anything to do with Gao Huaide, mocking or showing off when he killed Queen Qi of the Liao Kingdom. Gao Huaide had enough confidence to speak after he captured Jinzhou, and he was responding in public. Anyway, these military commanders and civilians have never lacked small frictions, especially Shi Yan and Guo Shao.

Shi Yan bit a chipped oatmeal in his hand and threw it into the soup in the iron cup. The vegetable soup splashed all over the floor. He slanted his eyes and said without changing his color, "Kill the heart comfort, save trouble. "

Gao Huaide gave a thumbs up and sneered: "I admire it."

Shi Yan said again: "Those soldiers walking thousands of miles, carrying their heads in battle, burning, killing and plundering are damned, but I can't let a group of women watch them die and gloat!"

At this moment, the **** Yang Shiliang walked into the lobby, walked straight to Guo Shao from the side, and whispered in Guo Shao's ear: "The Liao State has sent a secret envoy to Jinzhou, and has just arrived."

After hearing this, Guo Shao let out a sigh of relief, and said to the people: "Liao Kingdom is here for peace."

Shi Yan had forgotten the quarrel just now, and immediately yelled: "Let the lord of the Liao country call him his father, and the official promised them to ask for peace."

Wei Renpu stared at Shi Yan angrily and said: "Then talk a fart!"

Civilian Lu Duoxun said solemnly: "Before the expedition, everyone discussed politics in front of the officials. This time the expedition is to force peace. Otherwise, in the thousands of miles of grassland and the vast northeast cold land, there is nothing to do."

Guo Shao slapped his thigh and said: "First Liang Liang's secret envoy for two days, tomorrow morning he will be transferred out of Jinzhou and wandered towards Liaoyang a few times."

Lu Duoxun clasped his fist and said, "Does the Liao people think that I have no sincerity in peace talks?"

As soon as Guo Shao changed his silent behavior, he suddenly smiled and said, "Be calm. The people of Liao are fighting or making peace, not because of our polite attitude. If they think they can continue to compete with Xu for profit, it is. Sending the princess to send money to beg will not make a real difference."

...

The Daliao King's Tent is still stationed in the western plain of Dahei Mountain. Many horses are grazing the grass, but they are not fat, and the grass seeds in autumn will grow fat. Chunlei rumbled in the depths of the mountains, and the whole land was shrouded in lingering haze. However, the most unhappy person in Wangzhang Camp should be Xiao Siwen.

He said to his confidant Xiao Abdi not long ago: "The ewe is grazing desperately, swaying the swollen goat's milk under the belly, showing its usefulness to the owner."

The most shameless thing in the power arena is to be flattered in front of former subordinates!

Thinking about the fall of Youzhou (Xiao Simwen never felt it was his own responsibility, the Daliao court had no hope for reinforcements, who could defend the lonely city under the siege of hundreds of thousands of troops), Xiao Simwen fought back in a desperate manner and knocked the black pot against the emperor of the Liao Dynasty, Ye Lujing. On the head! Yelu Xiezhen and others respect and admire him and are courteous.

And now, Xiao Siwen has fallen to the point where he wants to find a way to please his attachment to Yelv Xianzhen. Xiao Siwen was always ashamed and unwilling, but he was more helpless.

The situation of negotiating peace with Xu Guo could not be controlled, and Xiao Siwen also gradually lost power. He often wakes up from dreams and can't remember any nightmares, but then he will think of people who have offended, hated, and dissatisfied with him for many years. There are too many people to count.

Xiao Siwen got up from the collapse again, and when his breath calmed down, he walked to a pair of bronze mirrors that accompanied him, looked at his face inside, and then tilted his head to look at the profile of the side. He straightened his neck and looked in the mirror to make a calm and upright posture. He only felt that his facial features were upright and his appearance was very good. He gradually found confidence.

There are ups and downs in the world, and Xiao Siwen believes that he can tide over this difficulty. From now on, he is still a Khitan noble with a stable manner, loyalty to his country and noble status.

Xiao Siwen gently smoothed his temples with his palm, picked up his hat and put it on, turned and walked out of the tent.

Riding unimpededly into Wang's account, many ministers of the Liao Kingdom have already arrived, and Yeluxian, Khan, also sat on his tiger-skin chair. Xiao Siwen stepped forward and bowed with his hands on his chest, and then found his place in the front.

People around are talking about it. The Great King of the Second Family standing next to Xiao Siwen said: "The emissary of the king's account has returned and praised the emperor’s conditions for peace. Envoy of the Privy Council or King of the North Court."

Xiao Siwen was taken aback when he heard it, and asked in a deep voice, "When is the news?"

The King of Family B said: "Just now."

Xiao Siwen's eyebrows were almost frowned immediately, and he went to the enemy's territory to negotiate peace. Who wants to go? Yelu Xiezhen is now the most powerful person in Daliao, he is definitely not willing to go... Then only Xiao Siwen will go!

Xiao Siwen's heart fell into the ice valley again, and hurriedly asked the king of the second family: "What else did the emissary say?" He hoped to get the most information so that he could think about it.

The King of the Second Family said: "After Xu Jun occupied Jinzhou ~www.readwn.com~, he immediately sent a ranger to Liaoyang to harass and spy on the military situation, and he was not very concerned about the peace. The secret envoy only saw important figures in the Xu country two days later."

Xiao Siwen immediately said loudly: "Khan, Xu people are not sincere in discussing peace. How to discuss peace in this situation?"

Yelu said quietly: "It's not that Xu Guo didn't want to truce. How much benefit would the Southerners get from fighting? However, Xu Guo should form an alliance with Goryeo to fight against Daliao. If you want to make peace with Daliao, things are more complicated; and Xu Guoren What I want is for the Daliao cavalry to stop harassing the border in the future, and they don’t trust Daliao. Even so, depending on the current situation, there is still a great opportunity to negotiate a peace."

Xiao Siwen asked immediately: "If you promise the terms of the people, who will negotiate?"

Yelu squinted at Xiao Siwen, with a self-explanatory expression.

Xiao Siwen almost cried: "Emperor Xu hates me so much. If I send it to the door, I will come back alive?"

Yelu Xiezhen kindly persuades: "This discussion is not a trivial matter, and everyone knows it. If Guo Tiejiang takes the opportunity to avenge his personal revenge, wouldn't he be stingy and dishonest in the world? Xiao Gong doesn't have to worry too much, and there is absolutely no life worry. 8
