Zhen Buhui sighed with a helpless expression. He had no way to refute what he said to the shopkeeper, because it was the truth.
"Okay, I just said the wrong thing."
"No, you're right. They did this to us just to be shameless and to take advantage of the situation. But if we do this, that's not the case." Shopkeeper He smiled evilly, got up from the couch, and poured himself a glass of water. , also poured a glass of water for Zhen Bugui, put it on the small spoon in his hand, and said, "After all, they just wanted to attack the border, want to take it for themselves, and ask His Majesty for more cities, Property. But we are different. We are helping them resolve civil strife and help the people of the Jin Kingdom get rid of their current miserable life. According to the wishes of the Duke, the Marquis and the General, they do not plan to occupy too many cities. Moreover, they don’t intend to take those cities, but they plan to let the future Golden King, Wan Yanxi, take the initiative to ask us to accept them.”
"High!" Zhen Buhui was really impressed with his admiration. "It's really high. Do you think that if our prince and young master had such a scheme, they wouldn't have been framed by their own clan and ended up in this situation now, right?"
"Then the prince and young master will not have any adventures later, and they will not meet us and train us, right?" He and the shopkeeper took a sip of water and smiled at Zhen Buhui, "Lost in the East, After all, I feel that the current princes and young masters are living a much better life than their complacent compatriots. Didn’t those who once harmed them also end up with a good ending?"
"Yes, the royal family found out that they had been deceived, so they slaughtered all the members of the same clan." Zhen Buhui sighed and sneered, "Those of the same clan thought that the emperor at that time was easy to deceive, but they did not expect that their retribution would come. so fast."
"No, this means that if you don't take revenge, the time has not come yet. The revenge that should be taken will be taken sooner or later. It's just a matter of time."
"This is really far-fetched." Zhen Buhui turned over and lay on his back, "You haven't told me yet what the last time you saw the general and Hongye did with this move. Woolen cloth!"
"The gag was entirely because I had almost forgotten it. After chatting with you, I now remember it a little bit." Shopkeeper He picked up the pillow next to him, raised his own pillow a little, and then said, "I just said Having said that, at that time, the Duke, the Marquis, and the general had just taken over the 300,000-strong army. In fact, everyone in the Shen family army at that time was quite convinced of them, including the younger General Song Qiyun, General Xia Jiu and General Shen Jiu, they followed their father and brother to the battlefield when they were very young. Although their military achievements are not that outstanding, compared with their peers, they are quite good."
"That is to say, when there was a sudden change of command, there was no discomfort among the Shen Jiajun and there was no objection, right?"
"Yes, it's not just the Shen family army, it's the entire court." Shopkeeper He sneered, "The veteran generals in the Xijing court are not covetous of the Shen family army's 300,000 troops at all. What they are afraid of is that if they come to take over the Shen family army, they will inevitably Just like the Duke's Mansion and the Marquis' Mansion, if we stay here for a long time, we will not be able to go back to Xijing City for generations."
"Well, it's not that we can't understand it. When those old generals were young, they fought desperately on the battlefield in order to let their descendants live a happy and healthy life. Naturally, they would not let their descendants also go into battle. Is there no tomorrow today? I'm afraid the descendants of those old generals don't practice martial arts anymore, right?" Seeing the shopkeeper nodding, Zhen Buhui sighed, "The so-called generals' tiger sons and generals' tiger girls are People like Zhen Guogong and Wu Dinghou are the ones who are truly worthy of admiration."
"That's right." Shopkeeper He shrugged helplessly, "Since no one objected and no one was dissatisfied, the Duke, Marquis and General took over the Shen family army. However, Liao and Jin looked down on them and thought they were too much. Being young, it is impossible to defend such a city, so the Liao Kingdom sent 100,000 troops and the Jin Kingdom sent 150,000 troops to jointly attack Jiapingguan City."
At this point, Zhen Buhui and the shopkeeper fell silent. When Zhen Buhui looked over, he found a slight coldness on his face, as if he was reminiscing about something, and it seemed that there was his enemy in this memory.
"What's wrong?"
"You may not have thought that I also participated in the defense of the city at that time." Shopkeeper He smiled calmly, "The situation was very dangerous. We didn't know until the army almost came to the city. The Duke and the Marquis repeatedly warned the people in the city , No matter what happens, don’t look out curiously, let alone go out, it’s too dangerous outside, every family must hide in their own cellar, and they are resolutely not allowed to come out if they can’t hear the sound of Shen Jiajun’s arrows.”
"But you didn't listen to them, did you?"
"That's right, but we didn't tell them that we wouldn't be obedient. People who have lived here all year round have learned how to avoid war. A chimney-like observation tower has been built on the roof of each house. A bow is no problem.”
"You guys agreed and hid there? You were thinking that if Liao and Jin invaded the city, you would shoot them to death with arrows, right?"
"Well, although we are also weak, we can do something for this city, even if we die, it is still worth it." He shopkeeper smiled, "When I made this decision, it was already too late. The prince and young master were notified, so we made our own decision. At that time, everyone in the city held the idea that people were in the city, and no one considered whether they would lose their lives. "
"It's amazing!"
"It's nothing special. This is the last straw in the hearts of people who have lived in the border all year round." Shopkeeper He smiled at Zhen Buhui, who was cutting over, and continued, "When this battle really begins , the soldiers guarding the city gate did not hold out for long, probably less than half an hour, the forward battalion of Liao and Jin had already entered the city."
"No matter how young the coach of Shen Jiajun is, he can't help but fight so much? This is their plan, to lure the enemy deep and close the door to beat the dog, right?"
"Well! This is their plan. Originally, we all thought about shooting the foreigners to death, but unexpectedly, something happened that I will never forget in my life. Just like watching over there in the dungeon today As they arrived, the General and General Hongye appeared on the roofs on both sides of the street wearing their armors. They each held a huge long special rope in their hands and tied up the incoming Liaojin forward battalion. "
"Is it that easy?"
"Of course not." He thought for a moment with the shopkeeper, "Before this, we felt waves of earth shaking, just like the movements of the assassins today. At that time, the movement seemed bigger than this, and the ground of the entire city was shaking. Trembling, the Liao and Jin people were frightened and anxious, because in their respective countries, earthquakes were a very abnormal and ominous sign. Because of the violent trembling of the ground, they put down their weapons one after another and held tightly. They hugged each other, and then squatted on the ground, as if doing so would allow them to escape this disaster. It was their actions that allowed the Duke and General Hongye to tie them all up unexpectedly, especially the two from the forward battalion. The general, who was tied up by Wu Hua Da, was pushed up the city wall by the captain of the Shen family army. If Liao and Jin did not retreat, they would kill these two men."
"What are the backgrounds of these two people?"
"One is Yelvertu's nephew, and the other is Wanyan Zongcheng's illegitimate son."
"No wonder, they must have withdrawn their troops in exchange for these two generals." Seeing He Zhenbuhui nod slightly, Zhen Buhui touched his chin, "But why did the ground move suddenly? Is it a coincidence or something else?"
"Of course it's not a coincidence." He and the shopkeeper waved their hands, "It was the Great General and General Hongye who did it. They appeared on the roof and stamped on the ground more than a dozen times, causing such a big movement. .”
"Is this what Master Huilan said that only the two of them can practice and no one else can do it?"
