One hundred and thirty-one entering the bandits (2)
Jingyuan Road and Huanqing Road are not too far apart. Especially Weizhou, where the government is located, is only a few miles away from Yanzhou, where the government is located on Huanqing Road.
Therefore, it was very convenient for the two defenders of the important border towns of the Song Dynasty to bicker.
For example, last year, in order to attack and defend, Han Qi, Xia Song, and Fan Zhongyan fought for more than two months from a distance.
At that time, Shaanxi Economic Strategy appeased the judge Yin Zhu, and he could only work as an errand boy, acting as a postman and lobbyist for these three important ministers, running from Weizhou to Yanzhou, and from Yanzhou back to Weizhou. Sometimes one person
It takes seven or eight trips a month.
Therefore, Guo Shuang rode a fast horse and set out from Yanzhou. It only took three days to meet Han Qi, who was stationed in Weizhou and commanded the entire Jingyuan Road.
Han Qi is much younger than Fan Zhongyan, and his appearance is much more handsome.
He is of a gentle nature, looks very easy-going and has no airs.
"Is this really what Fan Xiwen said?" After hearing what Guo Shuang brought, the deputy envoy who knew Weizhou was inevitably a little unhappy: "Am I, Han Zhigui, in the eyes of Fan Xiwen, such a frivolous person?"
"Fan Jinglue is just worried about national affairs, and hopes that Han Jinglue will show his kindness..." Guo Shuang had no choice but to help smooth things over: "Besides, now that the Yuan Hao thieves are coming, Jinglue will inevitably overthink..."
"Humph!" Han Qi snorted, the dissatisfaction in his heart reaching its peak.
He comes from the famous Han family in Xiangzhou!
This is the most elite family in the Song Dynasty!
The Han family in Xiangzhou has been in decline for generations since the Tang Dynasty. Even Taizu and Taizong respected and treated them with courtesy. They specifically asked the Han family for advice on family rules and family management, and praised them highly.
Han Qi himself was the second-ranked Jinshi in Tiansheng's fifth year, and the gap between him and Fan Zhongyan, who was ranked 97th in the second subject, is equivalent to the gap between Tsinghua University and three local colleges.
More importantly, Fan Zhongyan was able to recover because of Han Qi's recommendation and even the guarantee in front of officials. Without Han Qi, Fan Zhongyan would not have been able to recover.
However, after Fan Zhongyan came back to life, he repeatedly acted against him, Han Qi.
Now, Fan Zhongyan sent Guo Shuang to convey this kind of words that were almost like an adult's concern for a child.
How could Han Qi be happy?
"Fan Xiwen knows about Yuan Hao's menacing attack, but I, Han Zhigui, don't know about it?" Han Qi said with a cold face, unhappily: "Jie Tui went back and told Fan Xiwen, please don't worry, Yizhou can rest assured, I, Han Zhigui, will take care of Huan Hao."
Qing Lu is optimistic about the portal!"
Young Han Qi is now at the peak of his life.
In the second year of Baoyuan, there was a severe drought in Bashu, millions of people were hungry, and the social order was on the verge of collapse. Han Qi was ordered to be in danger, and he worshiped as a beneficiary, benefiting two groups of pacification envoys, and went to preside over disaster relief.
Under his leadership, all the victims of Yilu and Lilu were properly resettled, and there was no occurrence of famines in previous years where a large number of people starved to death or froze to death.
He spent another two years repatriating the victims to their places of origin, re-allocating land to them, and allowing them to settle down.
After finishing this matter, Han Qi was very high-spirited and compared himself with Zhuge Liang, thinking that nothing in the world could trouble him.
Even this year, the two governments gathered to discuss and share defensive strategies.
He didn't take it seriously either, thinking that this stupid method of consolidating walls and clearing fields was too rigid.
Since ancient times, where has it been possible to defeat the enemy by standing firm?
We still have to attack, at least we have to capture Hengshan, recapture Lanzhou, and limit Yuan Hao's power to the seven hundred miles away from the vast sea, so that he can no longer threaten the Song Dynasty's border defenses.
Now, there is strong pressure from the state not to allow him to take the initiative to attack. Otherwise, as early as June and July of this year, when Yuan Hao invaded Huanqing Road, he would have seized the opportunity to raid Baibao City again.
.
Guo Shuang was shocked when he heard this: "Yizhou? Who went to Yizhou?"
"Of course it's Lieutenant Ge!" Han Qi said with a smile: "Of course Lieutenant Ge's 10,000 troops had already settled in Yizhou three days ago. They were in close contact with Ren Fu of the Zhenrong Army. They were like bandits from the west.
, I’ll make sure he never comes back!”
After hearing this, Guo Shuang staggered and almost fell down. His body was shaking and his face was extremely ugly: "If Ge Huaimin moves, who will help defend the north side of Linzhou?"
Han Qi smiled: "What does that have to do with me?"
"Linzhou's defense is a matter of Huanqing Road!"
"If I could send Ge Huaimin out to settle in Yizhou to share the pressure on Huanqing Road, I would have done my utmost to be benevolent and righteous!"
If it had been last year, when Fan Zhongyan first came here, Han Qi might have tried his best to help.
but now……
After more than two months of disagreements and conflicts last year, he was extremely disappointed with Fan Zhongyan.
He even had the idea of driving Fan Zhongyan away.
As for the civilian and military generals under Han Qi, except Ren Fu, no one had a good impression of Fan Zhongyan.
On the contrary, most people were driven out from Huanqing Road by Fan Zhongyan.
Naturally, these people also spoke ill of Fan Zhongyan in front of Han Qi every day.
Therefore, gently knocking Fan Zhongyan's army and turning him into disgrace is naturally the meaning of the title.
Civil-official struggle is like this.
If you offend me, I will give you a good look, let you know how powerful you are, and force you to admit your mistake and bow your head before you reach out to help. Of course, most of the time, the so-called reaching out to help is actually worse than adding insult to injury.
Because, in officialdom, if you take one step back, you will step back step by step.
Just like back then, Fan Zhongyan and Lu Yijian had an arm-wrestling fight.
One labeled the other party as a crony, while the other drew a picture of hundreds of officials, directly accusing the latter of being the prime minister, but secretly cultivating wings, supporting party members, controlling state affairs, and deceiving the emperor. His crime is punishable!
They are aiming at the opponent's vital points, wanting to put the opponent to death, and wishing to make things as big as possible.
Finally, we got things to the point where we will fight to the death with you and without me.
It's normal now. Han Qi was dissatisfied with Fan Zhongyan, so he challenged Fan Zhongyan on the Linzhou matter - Aren't you very powerful? Then you can defend Linzhou yourself. It's not my defense zone anyway.
If something goes wrong in Linzhou and the court punishes him, it will be Fan Zhongyan and the Zhe family in Fuzhou who will be punished.
Guo Shuang wanted to say something else, but Han Qi put down the tea cup and made his intention to see the guest off very clear.
Guo Shuang could only sigh and bow before saying goodbye.
…………………………
The contradiction between the two important ministers along the border of the Song Dynasty gave Ye Li Yuqi a golden opportunity.
After realizing that there was no elite constraint from the Song court in the north of Linzhou, Ye Li met a beggar and immediately seized the opportunity to fight. On Yisi, the eleventh month of the first year of the Qing Dynasty, he sent troops to Linzhou from Wudinghe. Within two days, they
The cavalry entered the vicinity of Anqing Village north of Linzhou and quickly surrounded the village.
The siege of Anqing Village means that Yuan Hao's army can cut off the connection between Linzhou, Fuzhou and Fengzhou.
Toyosu, in particular, was immediately surrounded and isolated.
After hearing the report, Fan Zhongyan ignored Han Qi and sent people to Jingzhao to inform Xia Song and ask for support.
In the name of appeasing the deputy envoy, Zhe Jimin was ordered to immediately send troops to assist Anqing Village, but in this way, Fengzhou lost the last possible reinforcement.
