While the two people in Laojun Temple were drinking, the guards of Bozhou City had their long-lost leisure time in the story of Xiao Yaksha.
Ever since the Song Dynasty launched an undeclared war last year, or to be precise, since the two countries signed a peace treaty last year, the Jin Kingdom had made preparations early.
Not long after, the Song Kingdom came out along the Huaihe River. This Bozhou has always been a battleground in the Song-Jin War. Everyone was really busy for a while.
Especially since Zhao Mi and Yang Yizhong arrived in Suzhou, Bozhou City has hardly had a day to live peacefully. Although the people in the city are well protected and have not noticed anything, the soldiers guarding the city outside the city, There are indeed casualties every day.
It's just that both the Song Dynasty and the Song Dynasty suffered more losses.
I heard Wang Qi say that Zhao Guan's family seemed to have a different person on the battlefield. Many times he even wanted to lead the troops to fight in person. If the generals around him hadn't been so persuasive, I'm afraid this person would have actually gone to the battlefield.
I also heard that Zhao Guan's family is completely different from the fatuous king in the rumors. Not only does he know everything, but his plans are also very powerful. He is often one step faster than the Jin people in making plans. Even Uncle Liu Xin was very impressed and said that he is simply a genius. Naturally handsome.
I won’t go into details about how many exaggerations there are here, but everyone basically watched Wang Qi grow up and knew that this boy followed his father’s temper and dared to say anything, but he didn’t dare to tell lies. After listening to it, there were some sighs, some deep thoughts, some resentments, and some surprises. All kinds of emotions finally turned into sighs, one after another under the eyes of Lao Jun.
There is a poem from the Tang Dynasty that says, "You were born before I was born, but I was already old after you were born." You hate that I was born late, and I hate that you were born early. '
Although it is talking about something between a crazy man and a resentful woman, it seems extremely appropriate to use it here now.
Zhao Guan's family would have been hit on the head by Ju sooner rather than later, but it happened that everyone was a traitor and they were hit in the head by Ju.
I have become sober and enlightened... To be honest, if there is really no choice, who the hell would be willing to do such a thing that is reviled by future generations and betrays the ancestors!
Seeing that everyone was not in a high mood, Jin Sai knew something was wrong. Although he was a little sad, he still managed to say:
"The power of the two countries cannot be controlled by one person. The Emperor of the Zhao family has always liked to let civilians manage the military. He used many military personnel while suppressing them."
"Everyone, there is no need to be afraid. Even if we don't leave, life in Song Kingdom may not be easy."
This statement was obviously unconvincing. Although everyone agreed, judging from the expressions on their faces, few really believed it.
Wang Qi might not have the eyesight to see, or might just want to make a point, and said with a smile:
"Uncle, what you said is a bit biased. Our Song Dynasty has indeed regarded the lives of civil servants as important since Emperor Taizu."
"But what about Qin Hui's dog thief? He held the high position of prime minister, and Zhao Guan's family didn't even give him a reason or a sentence. He just killed him... and still chopped him alive!"
"My nephew has been hearing from his uncles since he was a child what happened to Mr. Di a hundred years ago. But compared to Mr. Di, isn't this Qin Hui a hundred times worse?"
"The act of emphasizing literature over martial arts is something that Zhao Guan's family cannot do. On weekdays, when he scolds his nephew's mother, he will also scold Prime Minister Zhao's mother. It is very fair."
The more he talked, the louder he got, which made Jin Sai very angry and asked directly:
"No matter how good Zhao Guan's family is, why should the big and small yakshas come north?"
As soon as he said this, Jin Sai himself immediately regretted it. It is said that scolding people does not reveal their shortcomings. Wang Yaksha even lost his hair, suffered great grievances and indeed had real news. When he took it to his own mind, he actually Said something like this.
Not to mention Wang De's temper, Xiao Yaksha is not an easy person to meet. Jin Sai was stunned. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Wang Qi's expression change:
"Although my father and son are here, they hate Zhao Mi rather than Zhao Guan's family. Let me say this first."
"Unlike some people, they don't even recognize their own emperor as their personal master. This is no different from not recognizing their own biological father!"
Okay, Jin Sai just said he was a father and son, but he directly attacked a group of people. For a while, there was an awkward atmosphere in front of the Laojun Temple.
In the main hall, Wang De looked at Li Qiong with some worry:
"Would you like to go out and take a look before we start fighting soon?"
Li Qiong shook his head: "Yaksha doesn't know them yet. They are all people who know everything in their hearts. Wang Qi is a junior, how can he be familiar with them?"
Wang De said, "I'm not afraid that they will make things difficult for my son. What I'm afraid of is that my son won't act properly and will hurt these pustules again."
Li Qiong was a little dumbfounded: "This way there is no need to worry..."
As he said that, he personally poured a glass of wine for Wang De: "You and I can be considered as brothers after all. You know me and I know you. Although you have a wrong personality, you have never had any conflicts."
Wang De drank it all in one gulp, nodded and said:
"I recognize this."
"Now that you are here, I won't treat you as a subordinate... Naturally, don't think about being my superior. Let's just be like what we did back then. You don't care about me, and I don't care about you either."
This is exactly what Wang De meant: "When did the scholar become so happy? If it had happened earlier, we might have become sworn friends."
Li Qiong poured another drink for him: "Now the Zhao Guan family is coming with hundreds of thousands of troops. If they bite the bullet, Bozhou will definitely not be able to defend it."
Wang De said: "If we attack by force, 100,000 people will probably lose 30,000 here. Zhao Guan's family is not a fool. This deal is not worthwhile and he will never do it."
Li Qiong's hand when pouring wine trembled slightly:
"Always be prepared, just in case...even if the emperor leaves all 100,000 people here, he will still be the emperor."
"But once the city of Bozhou is destroyed, this place will no longer be Bozhou."
"So since you are here, you should work with me to defend the city until the Song army retreats... If you want to stay here at that time, I will make a mark on your behalf. If you want to leave, I will give you money and food." yes."
Wang De looked at him: "Scholar...have you really thought about it clearly?"
Unlike this one-eyed Yaksha, Li Qiong's pair of eyes shined brightly in the dark palace, like two shining black beads, which made Wang Yaksha tremble slightly.
"What have you figured out?"
Wang De sighed: "It's nothing, I'm drunk... I have no objection to your arrangement, so let's do it."
A lost magpie broke in, fluttered everywhere, and finally landed on Mr. Li's shoulder and rested quietly.
"Since you agreed, I will tell you a secret."
Wang De's eyelids twitched uncontrollably: "What secret?"
"The biggest secret about the survival of Bozhou City."
"Scholar...are you drunk too? Is this Bozhou City thicker than the Yingzhou City Wall? Or is there some mechanism spell that will sink the city into the earth if it is moved?"
After all, he is a person who leads troops all year round. Wang Yaksha is very pragmatic, especially when it comes to sieges. He has always been steady and steady, and will not ask God for a meteorite or something.
The corners of Li Qiong's mouth curled up, perhaps because he was tickled by Yasha's imagination. He shook the wine bottle:
"Yaksha has become smarter too. If he had been like this earlier, I might have become serious about our sworn sworn relationship."
Wang De thought he was really joking. He was about to say a few words to him, but heard him say:
"There is indeed an agency. You are right, Yasha."
