Shi Zhongxin was stunned for a long time, and then burst into a long burst of hysterical laughter. Just when Zou Tong was worried that he would die from laughter, Shi Zhongxin's piercing laughter suddenly stopped.
He cupped his hands at Zou Tonggong and said: "My father-in-law, please go slowly. I will beat the drum and raise the tent to discuss the countermeasures after our army enters Dingzhou."
Zou Tong picked up his fly whisk inexplicably and looked at the upright Shi Zhongxin. He didn't understand what this guy was doing. Just now, he regarded going to Dingzhou as a ghost trip. How could he become so fearless in the blink of an eye? He still dared to chase him.
Leave! Yun Zheng does this kind of thing as a matter of course, why should he? Just as he was about to say something sarcastic, he heard Shi Zhongxin whisper.
"Old Zou, the deal is coming."
Zou Tong scratched the back of his head and asked strangely: "What kind of deal?"
Shi Zhongxin chuckled and said: "No matter where Lao Yun kills, there are always heads everywhere. Those heads are basically useless to him and his subordinates. Anyway, as long as the battle is over, his subordinates will follow the national dynasty.
Even the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household, which gave the highest level of rewards, would not go to his army to check the heads. The last time he dumped a street full of rotten heads, he had scared those people. Even the censor was not impressed by the military exploits of the Jingxi Army.
I have no doubt that I will only cause them other troubles.
Damn it, it would be even more difficult for us to praise the Japanese army and report some military exploits. Whether it is the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of War, or the Yushi Yanguan, they will not acknowledge the military exploits until they see the heads. Even if they see the heads, they will still check them.
Am I trying to kill the good and take credit? Lao Yun has the head, we have the connections, we can't let the soldiers kill the enemy without any benefit, right?
Your nephew hasn't moved for more than a year since His Majesty rewarded him with the title of Official Successor, right? You are just a nephew who is raised as your son, why don't you plan for his future?"
Zou Tong asked strangely: "This is military merit. What does it have to do with him, a small official in the Ministry of Household Affairs? He can't even hit him with eight poles."
Shi Zhongxin took out a knife hanging from his waist and patted it into Zou Tong's hand and said: "Your nephew saw that the Japanese army was about to go out, and he was worried about national affairs. He had no chance to go to the battlefield, so he specially dedicated his family heirloom to him.
He entrusted his sword to a warrior in the army, hoping that he could use this sword to kill enemies for the country.
An inspection after the war revealed that no fewer than thirty Liao people died under this sword, and countless enemy soldiers were beheaded... Tell me, does such a rich military merit have nothing to do with your nephew, the person who presented the sword?
?This is a damn good talk!"
Zou Tong's face twitched several times, and finally he digested Shi Zhongxin's words. He returned the knife in his hand to Shi Zhongxin and said, "I know nothing about this!"
Shi Zhongxin opened his eyes wide and said: "Young people are so patriotic in private. What do I tell you for? Is it true that I tell you my heart? That's a scam!"
Zou Tong fled...
Guo Hengchuan slashed away the thorns in front of him with his sword, and the road became increasingly difficult to walk. In order not to be discovered by the flying eagles in the sky, the Liao army only marched at night and hid in mountain cols or remained motionless in dense forests during the day.
This is already the sixth day after leaving Shibapan. The bags containing dry food have become empty. Countless soldiers are so hungry that they are dizzy and will fall to the ground with a groan after walking a few steps.
They have eaten almost everything that is edible in the mountains. Nowadays, catching a mountain rat is considered extremely lucky.
At the beginning, it was the Jingxi Army that was chasing them. Starting from the fourth day, it was the local Kelan Army that was chasing them. Guo Hengchuan noticed this change and wanted to turn around and teach these useless people a lesson.
Song Jun, but the entire army had no food in their stomachs, and their hands and feet were too weak to lift knives. They could only watch Song Jun standing in the distance, using crossbow arrows to shoot to death many of his brothers who were too hungry to move, and then
Cheering, they rushed up and took a knife to cut off their left ears...
The war has reached its current state and is basically in ruins. Guo Hengchuan fell deeply into regret. If the Eighteenth Pan was a complete defeat, or if the Song Army completely blocked the way out, nearly two hundred thousand people would think
The Liao army wanted to survive, even if it could not break through, it would still inflict the most painful damage to the Song army anyway.
Just because there is a way to survive, no one from top to bottom chooses to fight for this seemingly difficult but actually most correct way to survive.
He Lin, Zhang Wei, Tan Yanshou and other troops commanded by people with foreign surnames were worried that their subordinates would become victims of Guo Hengchuan's breakthrough. Seeing that the battle was not going well on the first night, they led their subordinates to break away from the Liao Army brigade and walked into the group first.
Mountain.
After six days, Guo Hengchuan could see the corpses of Liao soldiers wherever he went, and the entire mountain was filled with the putrid smell of corpses.
Zhang Wei is dead, He Lin is dead, this is the news that Guo Hengchuan got after gathering his defeated troops. Tan Yanshou is missing. The 100,000 troops commanded by these three people were destroyed by poisonous food and the ubiquitous Song Dynasty.
The army was swallowed up...
There was no way to go to the Hunyuan River. Guo Hengchuan saw with his own eyes the Song army's cavalry galloping back and forth on the plain. Some Liao soldiers who wanted to sneak down were spotted by flying eagles in the sky. It didn't take long for a large group of cavalry to rush over.
, chasing the scattered Liao troops on the plains until they had nowhere to hide, and finally fell to the ground exhausted and were trampled into pulp by the horses.
After calculating the departure time of the cavalry, Guo Hengchuan came to the conclusion that Yingzhou City should have fallen. This is where the cavalry came from.
After thinking of this possibility, Guo Hengchuan felt like he wanted to die immediately. The goal of Guo Ai and the children and nephews of the Guo family was Yingzhou, and there would definitely be no trace of their bodies left.
After waiting for an extra day, the nightmare finally became a reality. Near the edge of the Hunyuan River, some big trees were peeled off, with slogans like "Guo Hengchuan surrender, or your whole family will be killed!" Guo Hengchuan even placed a large tree on a large tree.
I saw Guo Ai's head on the stone...
Thousands of people are beating the drums! Now it is not only the Song army who come to search the mountains, but also countless Song border people who have just harvested the crops. They carry forks, guillotines, and various strange things all over the mountains and fields to search for the remaining Liao people.
People, I heard that if you catch a Liao man, you can get one hundred cash in cash!
Guo Hengchuan also heard that whoever can catch him will be rewarded with a bounty of three hundred dollars and all previous crimes will be wiped out.
From that moment on, Guo Hengchuan always felt that there were pairs of malicious eyes behind him, and from that moment on, he had to keep one eye open when sleeping.
On the ninth day of persistence, Guo Hengchuan was too tired and just took a nap. When he opened his eyes, he saw a handsome young man sitting on a chair with a smile and looking at him with a bowl of tea.
He was startled and tried to sit up, but found that his whole body was tied to a wooden board with finger-thick iron chains. It was very difficult to move his neck.
A second-grade civil servant of the Song Dynasty with an old woman's mouth lowered his head and looked down at him, the corners of his dry mouth full of sarcasm.
What made him most heartbroken was that his son Guo Ruhai was standing behind the young man, standing like a javelin.
"Ruhai! Take action and kill Yunzheng!"
Guo Hengchuan immediately recognized that the young man should be Yun Zheng, the coach of the Song Army. He never believed that his son would betray him. Even now, he still thinks that Guo Ruhai defected to the Song Dynasty for another purpose.
Yun Zheng's expression remained unchanged, not a drop of water came out of the tea bowl in his hand. Guo Ruhai curled his lips and looked up at the ceiling of the military tent without saying a word.
Yun Zheng smiled and said: "Take off this leather jacket. It's too painful to wear this thing in the hot weather. After taking it off, burn it on the spot. This matter must not be leaked to anyone!"
Guo Ruhai responded and walked out of the tent. Guo Hengchuan, who understood everything, screamed like an old ape who lost his cubs. He never dreamed that his son Guo Ruhai had died long ago, and only the one who stayed behind
It's a piece of human skin...
Li Changyin said thoughtfully: "This idea came from me. My commander is not as sinister as you think."
"Yun Zheng, you must die a good death!" Guo Hengchuan, who had bitten his teeth and spat out blood foam, cursed Yun Zheng loudly.
Yun Zheng did not explain, but put down his tea bowl and said: "In the very beginning of the war, my goal is to kill all your Guo family.
I have never stopped collecting information about Yanyundi over the years. The countless pieces of information compiled in the end are always related to your Guo family. Because of the existence of your Guo family, the people of Yanyundi have no good impression of the Song Dynasty.
Because of your Guo family's success, the people of Yanyun land hope that one day they will be as prosperous as your Guo family. Your Guo family has become the biggest obstacle for us to regain Yanyun.
A few years ago, I wanted to send people to kill all your Guo family, but the only people left in your family in Yanjing were the old, weak, women and children. Killing them would only make you crazier to take revenge on the border people of the Song Dynasty, so I always thought
Fight face to face with you, Guo Hengchuan, and kill the male members of your Guo family before uprooting the foundation of your Guo family in Yanjing. Let those in Yanyun who want to follow your old path see clearly what it means to betray your own race.
Such an outcome.”
"Yun Zheng, you must die a good death!" Tears welled up in Guo Hengchuan's eyes like a fountain. There was pain and anger on his face, but there was no look of regret.
"Three days ago, the secret agent killer of the Song Dynasty who was responsible for killing your whole family was on the road. I guess it won't take long, and the ground in Yanyun will be bloody.
Because I wanted to kill women and children, I was unwilling to give this order. Therefore, an old eunuch happily agreed to let him complete the task. He said that he was already a eunuch and was not afraid of the so-called retribution. Hearing what he said, I also
Happy and relaxed.”
"Yun Zheng! You must die a good death!" After Guo Hengchuan said these words, he chewed his tongue and spat out a mouthful of flesh and blood.
Yun Zheng sat too far away, as if he had expected this kind of thing. His flesh and blood flew for a short distance before falling to the ground weakly. More of it was stuck on Guo Hengchuan's face. Guo Hengchuan's eyes were open until he died.
It was so big that it looked at Yun Zheng like a dead fish. (To be continued)
